Side: Neutral
Real name: Aaron Nicholson
Code name: The Answer
Age:[/u] 23
Powers: Aaron's powers are literally the answer. His genetics have been modified so that they evolve to meet any situation. At rest, he may not have any powers, but in a situation, he will develop whatever abilities he needs at the time. Usually he only manifests one or two at a given moment. Such common powers include superhuman strength, speed, durability, senses, force field generation, etc. Flight may be a power he always has. In some cases, his powers are a conscious effort, such as deliberately enhancing his own hearing, but in other cases, it may be his body evolving to match a situation. In most cases, his powers evolve instantly, but if he is overwhelmed, his powers may not adapt speedily. While not a power, he is highly intelligent and able to mentally determine the answer to a number of problems. He can analyze data (scientific, legal, physical, etc.) and discover solutions much more quickly than most people.
Appearance:
Personality: Aaron is a firm believer in freedom. He does what he wants when he wants. As a mercenary, he works for whoever pays the most. Unlike most of the people in his line of work, he is honorable and has a sense of morality. He won't kill women or children (unless the woman is, say, extremely dangerous) and he'll only take a job if he believes in it.
History: Aaron Nicholson was born to a middle-class family in New York. From an early age, it was apparent that he was special. By kindergarten, he was completing newspaper crossword puzzles. It seemed that no matter what the question, young Aaron had the answer. In high school, he began to realize that his powers could earn him a good amount of money. Dropping out, he used his intelligence and cunning to establish himself as a hitman. He earned the nickname "The Answer", as no matter what the problem was, he could "answer" it with an intelligent solution and always make it look like an accident. There was only one occasion where he was caught, and that was by none other than Spider-Man.
Wilson Fisk became a regular customer. The so-called Kingpin of Crime adored Aaron's work. When Harlan Stillwell created a machine capable of altering DNA, the Kingpin immediately picked Aaron to be the first subject. Believing that he needed to improve himself in order to fight superhuman threats like Spider-Man, he agreed. The experiment was a success. With the ability to evolve his body to solve any situation, Aaron literally became The Answer.
Sample RP The Press Room of the White House had been intricately prepared. Chairs had been placed properly on the cleaned and scrubbed blue carpet, with reporters now occupying the folding chairs that had been provided. A rumble of voices echoed through the white walled room in anticipation of one man's arrival, with a single podium set up on the stage in front of the reporters.
The rumble suddenly lowered as somebody finally stepped on stage. A foot, covered by a black dress shoe, first stepped out from behind the curtain to the left. Another foot followed. Legs clad in dark blue slacks moved out to follow the shoes. They trailed up to a torso, dressed in a buttoned-up white shirt, with a dark blue dress coat over it. Hands came up to adjust the red necktie that was worn around his neck.
The figure stopped walking as he came in front of the podium. He adjusted the eyeglasses that were worn in front of his brown eyes, and then lightly trailed his hand over the side of his brown hair. The rather attractive causasian then placed his hands on the podium and looked out over the crowd of newsmen.
"Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Doctor Kevin Sidney." Those words would probably wake up the entire Xavier Institute. The inhabitants of the mansion would more than likely be watching it, since nearly all of the channels had switched to the coverage of it. The older members of the mansion would probably be shocked to find that one of their own had ascended to Hank's position.
"As it has been rumored throughout the week, I am the new Secretary of Mutant Affairs. Dr. McCoy opted to resign from his position due to personal reasons. But that won't set up back. I promise you that the relationship between man- and mutantkind is at an all time high. Magneto is no longer a threat and we are making progress against the so-called 'Brotherhood'."
"Before any questions, I would like to take a moment to talk about the NovaTeX incident. This was a blatant attack by the Brotherhood. At the current count, 25 mutant lives were lost, along with 37 human lives, due to the machinations of the Brotherhood. The Cure that NovaTeX produces is a purely optional pharmaceutical application. Nobody is forced to take this cure. The Brotherhood will be caught for their crimes against not only mankind, but also mutantkind."
"With that said, I received word this morning from Director Denti of the FBI that the Most Wanted List has been updated." Lifting his hand, a screen lowered from the ceiling to stand at his side. A single image was shown on it, a photo of a young man. "Ladies and gentlemen, this is John Allerdyce, alias Pyro. According to reports and testimony, he is the new leader of the Brotherhood, and he also orchestrated the attack on NovaTeX. With that said, he is now #1 on the FBI's Most Wanted List. If anybody has seen this man, they are advised to call 911 IMMEDIATELY. Now, are there any questions?"
Instantly, a million hands went into the air. Kevin lifted his hand to point at one of them. "Yes, you?"
A female reporter stood up. To anybody in the room, they'd notice an uncanny resemblance to Angelina Jolie. Actually, it looked like it actually was Angelina Jolie. "Yes, Dr. Sidney, you do realize that this is just a dream you're having, right?" Even as she spoke, she began to undress, ripping open her white blouse to reveal a chest encased in a black lingerie bra.
Standing at the podium, Aaron adjusted his eyeglasses. "Um, what? Wait a minute. High government position, attention of the entire nation, hot chick I'd never have in a million years stripping in front of me..."
The albino mutant shot up in bed, his body stretching out like taffy as his head hit the ceiling. "OW, GOD--" His form lowered, taking on some semblance of a humanoid shape as he scratched his head. That was the third dream like that in the past week. His bare feet - with no toes, mind you - swung out to land on the hard wood floor of his dormitory. He stretched his arms out as his mouth opened wide, a yawn escaping from the back of his throat. Licking his lips, he scratched his bare chest and stood up, moving towards the door.
With a smile, he grabbed the doorknob, turned it, and yanked open the door.
Extra: Yes, he is a canon character.
