Name: Kole Tatum
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Alignment: Neutral
Power Level: 8
Timeline: Modern
Appearance: His hair is a soft cherry blond naturally, and it hangs lightly around his head, and has gotten fairly long. His bangs often lay completely in front of his light blue eyes, and most of the way to his mouth. Meanwhile his skin is always a very pale shade despite his time outdoors and he almost never has a bruise or cut on him. He has a very slight build, with next to no real fat left, something his martial arts classes aided in doing when he was younger and then the psionic energy his power used up kept him quite trim. He has no concrete sense of fashion, other then trying to be trendy in the clothes he wears. He's roughly 5'5", and sensitive over his height, but a little less so. He also has his tongue pierced - which he finds fun to play with against his teeth. And he now has the top of his right ear pierced.
Personality: He is hyper and fairly cheery for. He has a thing of playing with fire, along with messing with prisms and lasers. He is also fond of his cousin Chris Reynalds.
History: Kole was born in early February, while his dad was currently in class for retraining for his job as an engineer out of state. Though his baby years were fairly uneventful, save a klutzy and forgetful mother that one hit the back of the baby seat with the car door - hard enough to scare him but not enough to hurt him.
Next came his toddler years, when his mother decided to go back to her old job as a psychologist, leaving Kole to deal with daycare - which he disliked at the time because of having to share building blocks and having to take naps while he wasn't tired.
During his elementary school years, he disliked first grade the most because he missed the daily naps he had during kindergarten. But all in all he enjoyed it - especially science. When he originally saw the effects of a prism he was fascinated. Everything was normal.
Then middle school rolled around, and he fell in with a group of young teens with similar personalities as himself, and he enjoyed it more than he did classes anymore. He also began feeling the effects of puberty, shortly before the school's regulated education on the subject - which calmed him a little bit but scared him in other ways about what he is feeling. Though he never told even his best friend, Tyler. The two were constantly back and forth between the two's houses, and spent a deal of time together, they had met late during the fifth grade when Tyler moved to the school.
It was Tyler that convinced Kole to get his tongue ring. And when Kole powers first started to bud and he panicked, he told Tyler about, and Tyler was skeptical at first, but calmed Kole down a bit, even bringing Kole his favorite snack, banana pudding with brown sugar to aid in the assuring him everything was fine. When it happened again, and Tyler saw it, he was a little shocked, but thought it was cool - and didn't think as Kole as weird, quirky, but still, his best friend. Plus if Tyler was going to be turned away by anything of Kole's, he said it'd be his strawberry blond hair, which he said with a huge grin at the time.
And that was nearly a year ago, and he just started high school, and do to "mumbo-jumbo" as Tyler and Kole call it, the two had literally every class together.
During his teen years, his older cousin Chris would often stop by and bring him gifts, or even bring him food or snacks. He never figured out how Chris knew he had a piercing before he even began talking the day Chris came over to babysit him and Tyler one night.
And the pair wondered, how Chris could always have cold ice cream, when they knew he didn't drive. Of course Kole's parent's knew of Chris's powers, or at least some amount of it. The relation is through Chris's father and Kole's mother, with Kole's mother, Catherine being the youngest and Chris' father the twin of their other brother. The three knew of the family history, knowing powers strung up frequently in the family. Kole of course, had yet to be let in on the family secret.
As high school went on, his powers quickly started developing and rapidly growing stronger. The disruption it was causing on his schooling was obvious to both him and Tyler, along with his friends and teachers - the latter two thought it might be drugs. Though Tyler always said it wasn't but neither Tyler or Kole would say what it was.
And finally in the middle of his junior year he randomly dropped out of school, only telling Tyler beforehand because his powers were starting to grow out of his control and he didn't want others to know about it.
Shortly after he dropped out and his parents found out - them got into a fight questioning why he dropped out and he hesitantly told them the truth. And their response was to call his cousin, their nephew who also developed powers to help him deal with his powers. Of course it was Chris Reynalds.
As best as Chris could, he tried to help Kole understand and control his powers, which proved endless at first cause the powers were still growing. Though they were following a similar path as Chris' just a different object that they affected.
Despite Kole's powers, Tyler still remained Kole's best friend as was aware of most of what was happening. Tyler was even aware of Kole's limits which were changing rapidly. Up and until the power Kole had was beyond what Tyler wanted to think about. So he lost track of Kole's limits though was still aware of Kole's powers - which he had no issues with. Which surprised Kole and Chris alike.
It took a few years, long enough for Tyler to graduate and finish college to be a psychology major, before Kole's powers finally stopped growing at a haphazard rate - though just like Chris' they grew but more from experience and expertise with his skills than an actual increase in power. All he has left is to gain more control - which he developed a lot of with Chris' aid; part of which was aided by the internet and reading up energy manipulation for advice since Kole effected energy not matter like Chris.
Powers: Physical Structure: Kole is as far as his own powers are concerned made up entirely of physical light most of the time. Due to the nature of his powers and how they interact with his other powers, he can reach incredible speeds that quickly approach that of light while remaining as he is. Though he has no special resistances to attacks just from his normal form.
Structural Shift: Kole can freely change himself from solid matter to solidified light with just a singular impulse on his part. Doing so increases his speed to that of light. It also allows him to consciously regenerate himself. He also glows faintly while solidified light.
Light Manipulation: Kole has a finely tuned control over light, being able to use it to generate lasers, large disorientating bursts of light, healing light, or even solidified light for active fighting and support. Outside of combat he can even make spheres of light to illuminate areas if light is needed. The lasers he creates function similar to laser rifles, a hit from even a small one will cut clean through a good chunk of matter, but is a clean straight wound. His restorative light mends injuries and broken bones, but simply can not raise the dead. They have to be still alive, even just barely. His light bursts can also take the form of energy constructs or illusions with incredibly fine detail when Kole wants too but only visual illusions. Solidified light is used mainly to deflect attacks like a force field or to physically strike something much like a blade. Since he can remotely control them he can mimic telekinesis by using solidified light threads or bursts to move the objects. The light takes any color Kole chooses.
Equipment: His iPhone and Zune.
Weakness: Brown sugar, he loves the stuff, and it makes a great distraction. And sugar in general. The use of his powers also drain him a good deal vastly increasing the food required for him to sustain himself.
He also has a great big glaring weakness - shadow/darkness manipulation, and even more so to them when he shifts. He also lacks no supernatural strength.
While normally energy sensors would place his energy levels around that of a mid tier medium, when shifts to light - his energy levels sky rockets to the point he appears to easily be a high tier high making him easy to track.
