sapphire_spider
Character Name: Michael Brock
Codename: Tempo
Alignment: Neutral
Powers: Depending on what music he hears, his powers alternate between having Super Strength (usually listening to rock), Damage resistant (usually listening to techno), Destructive magic (usually listening to heavy metal), Health regeneration/Healing others (usually listening to a love song), Flight (listening to dance music/pop), as well as other mysterious powers all varying on the kind of music he listens to. He usually only inherits one power at a time but there have been instances in which he was able to use more at a time, depending on what song he had listened to. He would normally store them in his iPod for later use.
Bio: Michael Brock, an emo kid, was out in a local park one day late at night. He was listening to his iPod, getting into the mood of the night while sitting on a bench, looking up at the stars. He felt lonely, insecure, and unloved. Suddenly, he saw something in the sky that looked like a shooting star so he made a wish. He wished to be something special, to someone, anyone... He was vary vauge about it, but it didn't really matter in this case since the shooting star was actually a cosmic bolt of energy that was shooting his way. It wasn't until the sudden strike of energy that his genetic make up started to change. From the outside, it just looked like a bolt of lightning and that a poor boy was struck. Unfortunatly, no body saw it considering Michael was all alone.
He layed there thinking that he was dead, but he couldn't have been more wrong. He felt more alive than he ever has in his entire life. His iPod had been fused to his body and would play music during different times. Being a little freaked out by surviving a bolt of energy, he decided to go for a little walk to clear his head.
He eventually came across a bar where a biker gang had recently started a riot. He would normally avoid confrontation of any sort, but this kind especially. It wasn't until a couple of bikers noticed him and started to harass him that Michael became a little more angered. One of the bikers shoved Michael on the ground, further enraging Michael which also caused a song on his iPod to play. It played something of a heavy metal nature which caused Michael to jump up onto his feet and explode with fire surround his body. His eyes turning demonic red, and hair shooting up created a very intimidating look as Michael didn't even question what was going on with him since he was so into the music. Instead, he decided to use it right away to scare the biker gang, which suceeded.
Ever since then, Michael has been discovering his powers more and more and learned that it was the music that gave him certain powers. He was no long the shy emo boy that felt unloved. Instead, it changed him into an arrogant, power hungry boy who normally gets what he wants...
Extra: For the most part, Tempo would use his powers for his own gain. He would never go as far as to kill someone, but he will use his powers to "show up" anyone he doesn't like. He is very hard headed so he will never usually take no for an answer. He is not the smartest person in the world but he does catch onto certain patterns and makes great observations to help him incase he has to deal with battle, although he still normally stays away from fighting too much and instead shows off his powers. His weakness of course is when he's not listening to any music or if a certain, weak song is playing. To this day he still can't control what song he plays or when he plays, however, music in his head usually plays when he is in some sort of danger or if he's feeling a certain way.
