Speed Physiology
Manic's body is adapted towards the rigors of high-speed running. His cardiovascular and respiratory systems are many times more efficient than those of a normal human being. He metabolizes an estimated 95% of the caloric energy content of foodstuffs (normal humans use about 25%). The chemical processes of Manic's musculature are so highly enhanced that his body does not generate fatigue poisons, the normal by-products of locomotion, which force the body to rest. Rather, his body constantly expels waste products during his accelerated respiration through exhalation. His joints are smoother and lubricated more efficiently than those of a normal human being. His tendons have the tensile strength of spring steel. His bones contain unknown materials significantly more durable than calcium to withstand the dynamic shocks of his feet touching the ground at speeds a human could never achieve or withstand. Manic's practical reaction time is several times faster than a normal human's and the speed at which his brain processes information is heightened to a level commensurate with his bodily speed, enabling him to perceive his surroundings while traveling at high velocities. Manic's lachrymose is more viscous than normal, thus preventing rapid evaporation and replenishment of surface fluids on his eyeballs under the influence of high wind velocity to occlude his vision.
Super Speed
Manic has used his powers of acceleration for various feats. He has plucked an arrow out of the air from a standing start, and has dodged machine gun fire. He has created cyclone-like gusts of wind, which are able to knock a man off his feet. He is able to run across the Atlantic Ocean and to over sea continents without having to stop, run up the sides of buildings effortlessly. Manic is known to be able to reach high supersonic speeds of up to 800mph. It is very possible that he may be able to achieve greater speeds if he wants, but when you weigh in geological and atmospheric conditions; the stress of it could be quite taxing. Still, that is unknown. Manic is also immune to the effects of friction, reduced oxygen up to a point where a human can no longer breathe, and impact upon his body while moving at super-speeds. He has travelled around the world by running on top of the ocean water! And achieved many great feats!
- Phasing
Manic has the ability to phase in short bursts. He can control both his speed and angular momentum at a molecular level, and control molecular interactions so that his body may pass through any substance. While in this short burst of a state, Manic is immune to airborne viruses, and is able to breathe normally. This does take a lot of energy to do, so is not always a practical choice to make.
- Vortex Creation
By running in a circle at a certain speed, Manic is able to create a vortex with a variety of effects. One effect is levitating whoever and whatever was in the center. Some other effects are acting as barriers to movement or funnels for toxic gases. Manic also can spin his arms to create directed funnels of hurricane speed air that can knock down barriers or reduce the speed of a falling object. When putting out fires, what the Manic does when he runs around the perimeter is create a pocket tornado. The updraft lowers the temperature inside the funnel and raises the fire off the ground which takes away its fuel source.
Peak Human State:
Due to his vigorous workout routine, Manic has developed his body to be at the peak of which a human can reach. This all works into his ‘Speed Phisiology’, making him the perfect athlete. Attributes of this state include;
Weaknesses:
Low Temperatures: A cold temperature will slow Manic’s bodily functions. As a result, he will slow down and therefore won’t be performing at his best.
Human: Just like any other human. Manic is still open to being shot or stabbed, or however other many fun aways we’ve seen a human be killed in ‘Final Destination’
Metabolism: Due to Manic being so energetic, he requires more energy than most. He needs to eat and drink more thean anyone else, as well as more frequent. Otherwise he just won’t have the energy to run as fast as he could.
Ice: It’s pretty simple, ice is a slippery surface, and thus. Manic doesn’t have as much control over his movement when on ice as he does when on solid ground.
Ego: Manic’s ego can land him in quite a bit of trouble. He’ll do things to impress others, things that could end up going horribly wrong for him in the heat of battle.
Skills:
Manic is skilled in various martial art styles. His family own a dojo, and thus he was brought up being taught how to fight. Manic developed an interest in the martial arts, and has learnt many styles and incorporated that into his arsenal.
===PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFILE===
Personality:
Manic is very much a dude. He is incredibly laid back, and doesn’t let anything or anyone bother him. A free spirit who doesn’t care for consequences, he just lives in the moment. He’s stacked with confidence, he’ll gladly get denied by a girl, shrug it off and move on to the next. He has a little bit of an ego problem as well, in that he loves to show off; whether than be through physical activity (Which he excels at) or anything else, he’s always out there looking to show off. He’s also a bit of a smart ass, he’ll make witty comments and not even notice if he upset someone. He really doesn’t care, he simply has one speed; go.
Strengths:
Manic refuses to get beat, his ego simply won’t allow him to lose. If he is on a losing side, he always has an aura about him, a belief that he can turn the fight around and into a win for him. Of course, this addiction to always win, to always being the best can lean to some pretty stupid decisions on his part, but you know. Sometimes everything just works out the way one plans. Otherwise, you just have to try again.
Interests/Habits:
Manic only has one real interest, and that is Punk Rock. If you ever manage to catch him during some downtime, he’ll have his headphones in, blasting music. As for a habit, does eating/drinking a lot count?
===PERSONAL BACKGROUND===
Family Members: Brad McKenzie (Father) Roxie McKenzie (Mother) Matt McKenzie (Uncle)
Place of Origin: Metropolis
Current City: Jump City
History:
Manic grew up in the great city of Metropolis; a big place indeed, very intimidating for a small lad. He had the typical upbringing, raised by his mother and father who as well as raising him, ran a Dojo in downtown Metropolis. Max also got involved with the dojo, learning various martial arts from his father and the other instructors who worked there. At school he was one of the top athletes, running track, a short forward for the basketball team, his school’s primetime strike for soccer, as well as a pretty darn good running back. Yes, Manic has always excelled in physical competition. Same can’t be said for the rest of his academic record…
How did he get his powers? He’s not entirely sure himself. See, at school Manic was always in competition with this guy named Adam. At the age of eleven, it was a ‘Sports Day’ at his school, and he had been picked to run the 1200 metre race, it just so happens that he was going head to head with his ‘rival’ at the time; Adam. As the race began, Adam tripped Max over straight away, and then ran ahead with all the other runners. Max was angry, he got to his feet and chased after them. He picked up speed very fast, and in no time was caught up to the group. He didn’t stop there though, his speed continued to excel until he eventually seemed like a blur. He had trouble controlling his speed then, freaked out. Thus winning the race but running around and round the track until he completely spun out of control and fell down knocked out.
He wasn’t deterred by this, in fact; he thought it was cool. He moved to his uncles house at the age of thirteen and would then in Jump City, begin to gain control of his powers; learning the full extent of his abilities whilst also remaining active in competition. Manic had always been a good guy, but one night he just had to go stop some crime. But in doing so, he realised something. He could in theory steal whatever he wants, nobody could ever catch him or know it was him. And thus, he delved into some underhanded endeavours. | |
