«««SKILL SET»»»
Main Power Origins: Science
PowersSound Manipulation/Bending: Can create, manipulate, intensify, distort, and or blast sound to be offensive or defensive. His focus is specifically infrasound, sound below 20Hz. Because of how low the frequency he produces is, instead of coming off as an audible noise (that very few can hear), it comes off as more of a low humming. But just because you cant hear it does not mean it’s not powerful, its just a silent weapon felt in the forms of pressure and vibrations. Sound does need a medium to travel through, whether it be air, water, ground, so a gas, solid or liquid. It does however seem to travel fastest through solid objects such as the earth, walls, all depending on the density. Objects that are too dense however tend to bounce sound off of them. Most metals, rocks and other dense objects tend to be dangerous for him to use his powers around, for if they bounce back, or echo they can damage him as well, meaning he is not immune to his own powers.
* Sound Blasts: Can radiate and channel sound waves from his hands, and feet into linear waves of pressure and vibrational force equivalent to a whopping 4.5 tons of force. The closer to the source, the stronger the pressure.
-At the touch,meaning if he placed his hands on you, these waves would be quite catastrophic as they can cause internal damage, rupture eardrums, and the longer exposed even be fatal depending on the amount of time exposed to these waves. He does have his own time limit however as he has only been able to hold a continuous wave for the duration of a few minutes, and for these waves to do the amount of damage needed to be fatal, longer time exposed would be needed, although a few minutes is enough to leave someone impaired or discombobulated for quite a while.
-At a distance, these ring like energy waves can act as pressure waves that can repel projectiles, or if anything hold them in place or just stop them flying further, depending if it’s a pulse, or a continuous blast. Like i mentioned before, he cant hold the wave for that long.
* Hemispherical Sound Radiation- At a radius of 80ft, Adrien can emit from his person in all directions like a satellite ,waves of infrasound that can induce fear, nausea, anxiety, and even vertigo depending on the distance and intensity. The closer to the source, the more effective.
* Vibration Detection- Can detect and or locate a presence through the subtle vibrations felt through the ground. As long as the hider is moving and creating these vibrations continuously, he can sense where they are and where they’re headed, so in order for him to be able to pinpoint consistent movement is needed. You’d think he’d be impaired on his right side in a fight due to the eye injury, wrong! All he needs to do is feel the vibrations. But he can be thrown off my multiple similar vibrations going off at once in multiple directions. But he is pretty good at distinguishing them, and better if he trained more.
SkillsExceptional fighting skills as he’s been taking kick boxing lessons from an underground cage fighter, who took him and his sister in.
AbilitiesHe has become somewhat of a human lie detector, might be because he has been practicing listening and feeling for certain vibrations humans’ give off when they do lie, you know the increase in heart rate and all that. We’ll see if he decides to work on this ability.
Physical Weaknessesinjured right eye- it still bothers him at times, and visually impairs him on his right side, so even though he can one of his powers is to literally sense you, if that opponent is skilled in stealth and he doesn’t feel them coming...welp.
He is not immune to his own powers. Emitting them is just exhausting, but if they were to be bounced back at him, he would be affected just as anyone else would be. He’s just human after all.
Mental WeaknessesAnxious and withdrawn- continuous abuse left him slightly mentally broken in which his trust in others is nonexistent. He hates socializing, and has built a tough wall up, refusing to build any type of connection with anyone. Or at least those that will try to will have a hard time.
EquipmentMasks, and a small pocket knife. (He likes to whittle sometimes)
«««CEREBRAL PROFILE»»»
PersonalityNot a conversationalist that’s for sure, full on introvert. Kinda gives off a tough guy vibe, not saying he’s not tough, cause he is, I’m just saying its also the vibe he gives off. He can also come across cold, distant and uninterested, and its probably because he is.
«««PERSONAL BACKGROUND»»»
Family Members: Eunji Jeong (Younger Sister) Suk-Jin Jeong (Father, deceased) Grace Jeong (Mother, deceased)
Place of Origin:Jump City
History/Sample Rp(Trigger Warning)
Adrien’s Father, Suk-Jin met their mother Grace when they were both stationed in the same base in South Korea. He was fulfilling his mandatory military service and she was an army nurse from America there on a short mission. They quickly bonded and when she traveled back to the United States, he followed suit after his duty was fulfilled and they eventually got married. They had a pair of twins, Adrien and his sister Eunji, you’d think this story would fall into either your typical happy family trope, or even just your average boring, bickering parents that lead to divorce and so on and so forth. No, this got much darker. It’s true that it started out normal-....bickering, drunkeness, fighting. But that changed when Suk-Jin got involved in some shady business. See after leaving the army and pursuing the education he had been before being enlisted, he later became a Biotechnologist. And at first everything was fine, he was skilled in his craft and at first highly respected among his peers. But then a certain group got involved, who they were, no one that didn’t need to know knew. Who did they work for? What were they after, well one thing for certain is that they were up to no good, and they wanted to exploit the doctor, use him for their own gain. Whether it was growing sick of the threats, or being bribed or just not thinking twice, or even falling for the false sense of gain, Suk-Jin agreed to work with them. But what was it exactly that they asked of him? To experiment on his own children, to use a drug they were in the process of developing and enhancing, and monitor its effects. Behind his wives back, he did it, the monstrous act of using his own children as guinea pigs. At first it didn’t seem like anything was happening. The only effects were the children getting sick, sometimes severely, and other times a bit more mild coming off a cold or a flu. Because the experimentations started when they were infants and continued on with no significant indications or trace of what could be causing it, the doctors and mother jarred it down to it being genetic, or maybe they were just born with low immune systems. Adrien was the one who got the brunt force of his fathers abuse, as he was the one who fell ill the most. See the experimentations became an obsession, especially since he had the weight of the organization’s watchful eyes on his back.
This obsession led to anger, and violence that the father unleashed relentlessly on his family, increasing as time went by and still no signs of development were visible.
Until one late afternoon, a few weeks before the twins 12th birthday, the night their mother found out about the atrocious acts being done on her babies.
Adrien sat writhing in pain after another session of needles and scans and EKG’s, and other exhausting arrangement of chemicals and tools. He didn’t dare look up, he could hear his sister crying...it was her turn. “Get up.” The sharp tone of his fathers command made him jolt, he quickly did as he was commanded. “See that small white drawer behind me,” He gestured with his head over his shoulder, “there’s two small vials full of violet liquid in there...bring them to me,
and her hurry up!” he hissed. Fists clenched and hesitant, Adrien followed command..it was the same liquid he kept injecting into their systems, and every time did nothing but make them feel sick.
He opened the drawer and grabbed them but was startled again by his fathers sharp tongue.
“Hurry UP! This caused him to quicken his pace and just as he stretched out his arms to hand over the vials, he felt one slip from his fingers and shatter on the floor. This infuriated Suk-Jin, backhanding his own causing him to stumble onto the floor. He held in his tears, glancing up at his sister who stared down at him wide eyed, tears streaming down her fear stricken face. Adrien clenched his fists tighter....his anger rising, why her, why them. He felt something building up inside him, anger? desperation?..something else. The ground began to shake, subtle but still noticeable. The father glanced around the room, an earthquake? No...he could feel it, light waves of pressure as if a subwoofer speaker had been turned on but admitting no noise, and this pressure was coming from the boy. The dad smiled, was it finally it? Results? The results he had been waiting for? He began to cackle a disturbing laugh that then turned into a disgusting harsh cough, the air didn’t feel right. The ground began to shake a bit more violently, anyone in the household would notice. “Okay that’s enough!” Suk-Jin hammered. “I said Stop!”
Adrien’s new found powers continued to pulsate out of him, and he glared up at his own monster of a father. His and his father’s attention were then directed to the door of the basement as a loud knocking was heard. “Suk-Jin?! Suk-Jin there’s an earthquake! We need to grab the kids and-“ Her voice faded into the background as the father brought his attention back to Adrien, he felt another strong hit on the same side of his face as his father threw another punch in his direction. “I said Stop!” Adrien grabbed at the side of his head, throbbing with pain and the waves began to subside..
“Don’t touch him!” That was Eunji’s voice, and at that same instance the basement door was forced open and the mother raced through only to pause in horror at the sight before her.... “Adrien....Eunji...” The next minute went in a blur as the scenes unfolded too fast for the kids to intervene. Grace yelled and threw herself at Jin in rage, and the altercation continued for a few moments before their father overpowered their mother and threw her to the ground. He finally had results, he couldn’t be exposed now, she shouldn’t have intervened, these were the thoughts racing in his head as he committed the dreadful act of permanenty separating the kids from their mother.
Eunji’s screams and cries of grief became more profound and Adrien was still and unresponsive, staring on in sheer horror. “You...” Adrien clenched his teeth and rage filled his being, he launched himself forward towards his father, but even with all his strength, how could he think he could overpower him? But he tried, continuing to press forward, attacking even as his father held him at bay by the wrists. His father getting tired of the struggling threw him vigorously to the side where he slammed against a shelf full of glass beckons, vials and instruments. The shelves shook and a things began to fall and shatter on the ground around him. He glanced up in time to see a beacon tip over and spill onto him, some of it landed on the right side of his forehead, his cheek, his shoulder and the worst of all in his right eye. He grasped at it and screamed in agony. It burned, like acid it burned..
His father began approaching him, as he continued to scream. Little did either of them know, these yells....these loud noises...were fueling something else. “Don’t...” Her voice was light at first before blaring. “ Don’t Touch Him!!” Adrien looked up in time to see his sister lunge at their father from behind, but what was this.....she managed to pin him onto the ground. Her slim, small hands wrapped around his neck like his had on their mother. “Don’t you dare touch him!” She cried out, but how was she overpowering him? Her grasp on him looked effortless, and it just grew tighter and tighter. “....don’t ever...touch..him..” She was like an beast in that moment, almost unrecognizable as she continued to press on as their father gasped for air. By the time Adrien realized what was happening, he was too late to stop her. Their father’s hands fell limp at his sides, his gurgles stopped, he was still. The twins were now orphans.
What followed next was the children being discovered and the whole situation being ruled down to this all being their father’s fault, with clear signs of abuse, neglect, murder, and a lot of illegal stuff obviously, which wasn’t wrong, just not the whole truth. The kids were placed in foster care but didn’t remain in the homes too long as speculation of the two being separated and sent to different families rose. They made their escape and survived out on their own, until they stumbled into and underground fighting rink which was not the place for children. But who knew that in this murky water they’d find a friend and caretaker, or maybe he just took pity on them. The ringleader and once skilled fighter (before being disqualified for fowl play) took them in and gave them refuge. Sure the place wasn’t that great, with concrete walls and a couple of mattresses on the floor as their beds, but it was home as long as they could look out for each other. They continued to train and practice their newly developed powers in secret. Although his sister grew to be pretty spunky and gleeful, he however had a harder time recovering, being more of a recluse.
I bet you’re also wondering what happened to that organization that hired their father and started that whole mess in the first place. They know the twins location and their whereabouts. In fact they sometimes send out jobs and tasks, that they pay pretty well for, for the twins to do and test their powers on. They do this all anonymously and do the siblings accept? Of course, it’s good money, and normally the jobs aren’t that hard anyway. They were at first, but the kids are getting used to their abilities and it helps their getting fighting lessons on the side from their caretaker.
