Profile

Blackagar Boltagon rules over the secretive city-state of Attilan, a hyper advanced, isolated nation of the Inhuman race. The nation's emergence to the public stage in the last few years shocked the general public, and its ramifications are still being felt. Outsiders know little about the intensely private monarch, save that other royal family members speak for Attilan at the United Nations.

A lifetime spent in imposed isolation and rigorous meditation prepared Blackagar for a role as leader, protector, and representative to Attilan's people and descendants around the world. Honour, justice, and balance define a leader who must negotiate rough political waters, all without ever saying a word. The world would prefer not to end.

DURABILITY

Terrigenesis altered Blackagar's genetic composition to allow him to endure immense physical damage. He can take a proverbial licking and keep on ticking, when by all rights he should be dead and smeared across the face of creation. He walks off falls from great heights. Most weapons cannot penetrate his skin.

He withstands environmental extremes with no detrimental effects, including a lack of oxygen, the absolute cold of space or the immense friction of high-speed movement through the earth's atmosphere, and high altitude pressure. Through latent particle manipulation, he does not suffer any deleterious effects from magnetism, radiation, and the hostile state of a moon or planet highly different from Earth.

Enhanced: Blackagar manipulates psionic particles to enhance his overall endurance to cosmic extremes. Damaging him requires overwhelming force through multiple attacks, and he can hold his own against some of the strongest foes (Thanos and the Hulk, for example).

He can endure direct blasts from high-impact energy weapons from multiple sources, energy attacks from Omega-level mutants, and weather solar flares. Surviving a bomb blast at ground zero is fully possible.

ELECTRON MANIPULATION

His primary terrigenesis allows him to shape, manipulate, and harness electrons using a self-generated particle. These interactions create phenomena of variable strength and outcomes, most famously his quasi-sonic scream. When he channels the particles in a controlled fashion through his metallic circlet, he achieves several different effects. 

In addition to his physical enhancements, quasi-sonic scream and flight, other effects are listed but not limited to those below.

ENERGY ABSORPTION: By concentrating, he can route energy through his circlet or neural pathways rather than be directly affected by it. Redirecting the energy by deflecting it elsewhere, or releasing in concussive blasts or bursts can allow it to strike other targets.

DEFLECTION: He can deflect incoming objects of great velocity and size, up to roughly the size of a Kree spaceship or a meteor.

MATTER MANIPULATION: Blackagar has limited ability to shift around matter and energy, changing their states and physical nature. He can reduce steam into ice and obliterate solar flares by sheer concentration. Much of this understanding at this time is rudimentary. He doesn't exactly understand how he does this, and his finesse is relative to what he can envision and how much time he has. A rushed effort in anger produces a more destructive outcome than carefully trying to reduce the weight of stones about to topple on someone.

MASTER BLOW: The Silent King can unleash a devastating, single attack by concentrating his electron and particle force into a single blow. The sheer force drains him considerably for a short time afterwards. This attack is usually delivered in hand-to-hand combat and strikes down even powerful foes.

FLIGHT

He creates a field of highly active gravitons to influence gravity, allowing him to levitate or fly with excellent maneuverability. Manipulating this field as a jet propels him at hypersonic speeds. The same field interacting with electrons and other particles prevents him from suffering adverse effects of quickly moving through the atmosphere.

QUASI-SONIC SCREAM

Blackagar's quasi-sonic scream is the destructive outlet of electron manipulation. Particles interacting and directed by the speech centre of his brain mean any vocalization on his part generates a tremendous amount of force. Its power exponentially grows according to the utterance: a sigh collapses a building, a whisper of a single syllable shakes cities and activates dormant fault lines to terrible effect. His hypersonic scream generates concentrated force to cause great damage, and unlike sound waves, the distance of a full out shout is considerably further on the electromagnetic spectrum. His range generally is line of sight in a widening cone, though with some effort he can widen or narrow the band of the attack.

Despite the description, it's not in any way sonic or affected by sonic manipulation.

Drawback: His emotional state fuels the overall strength of his scream. Heightened passions, like anger or excitement, increase its power by magnitudes.

SILENT MIND

Thirty years of intense mental conditioning over his abilities leave Blackagar highly resistant to psychic intrusions, mental tampering, and domination. He's not immune to psychic power by any means, but he is often the last man standing under assaults on a psychic battlefield.

SUPERHUMAN ABILITIES

Blackagar's Inhuman physiology grants him physical attributes superior in all ways to humanity. Due to Terrigen exposure in utero, his capacity is vastly enhanced. Conscious particle manipulation allows him to grossly enhance his physical attributes. 

STRENGTH: Under typical circumstances, he can easily lift 35 tons and top out somewhere around 60-65 tons without causing damage. Enhanced: Well in excess of 100+ tons. He can toe-to-toe Thor, Hulk, and Thanos.

STAMINA: Blackagar's endurance allows him to persist in physical activities due to producing few fatigue toxins and breaking them down substantially. He can fight and exert himself for days before suffering impairments. Enhanced: He can remain awake, functional, and active in oppressive environmental conditions for over a week.

AGILITY: He's far more agile and flexible than most mortals. His enhanced agility allows him to move in nearly impossible ways, balance on the thinnest ledge in a raging windstorm without falling, and execute acrobatic leaps under difficult circumstances.

SPEED: He is terribly quick on his feet, moving at speeds well beyond the non-powered capacity. He can snatch missiles and bullets from midair, reacting in combat with a flurry of blows or moving so quickly that combatants never the blow that strikes them down. The human eye cannot track him unassisted when he acts. Enhanced: He can cover enormous distances with a thought and catch up speedsters to like Quicksilver.

TELEPATHY

Blackagar has the potential for telepathic abilities with others. However, in this area he has limited training at best. He relies on a close connection and proximity to reach out to other non-psionic minds, whereas he can build a rapport with greater ease with psychics. These abilities function largely for communication and projection of thoughts or emotions.

Skills

COMBAT

Blackagar practiced martial arts for discipline and self-control since birth. A blade in the hand and a kata for every situation were considered part of his essential education by Inhuman tutors. They taught him to manage his supernatural abilities effectively, his electron-enhanced physique creating a deadly combatant. There are few armed or unarmed arts he has not studied in depth. He knows how to deflect incoming attacks and interpose himself between a less capable combatant and their opponent, moving swiftly and easily around his environment. He is strongest in evasive styles that use a supernaturally-empowers opponent's strengths against them. He has also studied certain alien techniques, primarily the Kree. His experience with archaic and futuristic weapons includes everything from energy blasting pistols to serrated daggers.

EDUCATION

During his time in isolation, he extensively studied a vast range of topics available to him through tutors, learning software, and libraries. Blackagar does not have a formal recognized degree from outside Attilan. However, he would easily be a PhD-level student in history, political science, biochemistry or biogenetics due to his lengthy studies.

ILLUMINATION

The ancient arts of calligraphy, hand-painting literature, and creating mandalas came as part of his upbringing. He is well-schooled in creating beautiful artwork in painstaking detail, all with an eye for detail and ephemeralness of time.

IRON WILL

There is very little to bend or break Blackagar Boltagon's will. He can shrug off psionic suggestions and pass through outright torture without uttering a noise. He endured a near lobotomy and illusionary torments to bend his discipline, and still stayed completely in control of himself - or the faculties that count. It's very hard to shift his position or force him to act if he does not want to.

LEADERSHIP

Attilan's political history is checkered by coups, revolts, and struggles between gifted leaders aiming for sole rule and the Genetic Council. Blackagar's parents understood the tenuous balance and raised him to value diplomacy, listen closely, and never rush to conclusions. He learned the delicate dance of power and influence against multiple factions. Though stoic and reserved, his strong sense of justice, fairness, and compassion for the wellbeing of all radiate through. Under difficult straits, he keeps his head, guiding others to make the best decisions. The Silent King accepts the mantle of weighty responsibility and obligation despite his personal reservations about ruling his people, and he will always step up when the moment requires it.

MULTI-LINGUAL

Blackagar has studied many languages in preparation for his role as a monarch, including English, French, German, Spanish, Mandarin, Hindi, Sanskrit, Arabic, Kree, Shi'ar, Atlantean, and so forth. He also knows sign languages for many of these, including ASL, BANZSL, FSL, GSL, Chinese sign, etc.

PILOTING

Blackagar can pilot a variety of mundane and spaceships safely in atmospheres and the void of space. He is experienced with advanced technology from a variety of different sources. In combat, he can adjust his reflexes and reaction time to effectively take advantage of various systems.

Resources

ATTILAN

Blackagar rules Attilan, the isolated, secretive city-state home to the bulk of the Inhuman race. It serves as Inhuman refuge in a hostile world.

Concealed from humanity for millennia, Attilan rapidly developed advanced technologies based on captured Kree plans and scientists trained by the interstellar empire. The nation's technological, scientific, and supernatural advancements far and away outstripped humanity even into the 21st century. Attilan long dwelled in a submarine environment protected by a dome, in the high Himalayan plateau, and even on the moon. Large-scale environmental systems allow the city to be transported full-scale into other locations. Advanced defensive and computer systems provide complete shielding for the nation against Kree and human. Attilan's scientific advancements have almost never been deployed in public.

Terrigen crystals, the solid form of highly precious terrigen mist used to unlock Inhuman genetic potential, exist in quantity only in Attilan. Its manufacture and storage are limited to the Genetic Council and royal family. Terrigen can be fatal to mutant populations, and Blackagar directly prevents its release.

DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY

As the leader of a sovereign nation, Blackagar enjoys diplomatic immunity outside of Attilan. He is protected by the UN conventions governing arrests and activities. The Attilan embassy is considered foreign soil.

FOCUS

Blackagar's immense psionic abilities must constantly be channeled to avoid release. Though he can do this independently, using a focus reduces the need to concentrate substantially and allows finessed shaping of his energy. His focus is a metal circlet of Kree origins. Composed of an advanced vibranium-metal alloy, the circlet can channel extreme amounts of energy without breaking and resists damage from most mundane sources.

QUIET ROOM

Blackagar is the primary investor and owner, through a series of shell corporations and holdings, of an upscale night club in Manhattan. The Quiet Room is noteworthy for its role as a neutral ground between varied groups, a state enforced by some powerful backers and Attilan technology that helps diminish supernatural powers, prevent eavesdropping, and stymie magic. Its location alone gives a certain cachet, as do the extensive bar, clientele, and reputation for absolute neutrality. Mutants, aliens, spell casters, and non-powered guests are all perfectly welcome.

WEALTH

The Silent King rules a 25,000-year-old nation that possesses highly coveted technology, artifacts, rare mineral resources, and scarce substances. Attilan engineers and scientists can manufacture near anything given time. He has a diverse array of resources to call on as need be, and the city-state's wealth is effectively his to use as he sees fit.

Weaknesses

Click to expand.

CONTROL

The Silent King must stay in control. Any slip has devastating consequences to those around him. He is conscious of himself at every hour of every day. There is no downtime for him. Ever.

INHUMAN PHYSIOLOGY

Inhumans diverged from the Homo sapiens species 25,000 years ago. The isolated population and selective genetic breeding leave Inhumans vulnerable to environmental pollutants. Prolonged exposure weakens his body.

KREE BIAS

Inhuman culture reinforces a deep, abiding hatred for the Kree race who shaped early Inhumans into weapons to fight intergalactic enemies. Kree would happily reclaim the Inhumans under their tyranny or wipe them out. Blackagar understandably has very little love for the race collectively. He does not advocate genocidal actions against them.

MAKE HASTE SLOWLY

Festina lente. - Augustus Caesar, 2 CE.

Blackagar doesn't rush into hasty decisions. He prefers to logically consider all avenues and rational outputs before acting, and that sometimes rankles his allies, court, and country. They can be sure he's keeping their best interests in mind but often seems remote and overly intellectual because of his approach.

MEDITATION

Blackagar spent the first two decades of his life isolated in a chamber to rigorously practice meditation to quiet his mind. He can attain a trance-like state of mental clarity in a matter of minutes and maintains this despite distractions, including combat. His composure allows him to regain his focus and rapidly parse through complex information, moral quandaries, and mental stresses.

RIVAL CLAIMANT

Attilan's admittedly ugly crown rests uneasy on Blackagar's head. Maximus Boltagon, second son to House Agar, believes it's his rightful role to be king and stops at nothing to claim that right. Blackagar must always watch his back.

VOX REX

A single sound from Blackagar can shatter continental plates and destroy cities. A word can banish a cosmic ray. His scream can atomize planets and moons. For continued existence of his people and the rest of Earth, he remains silent at every moment through a profound act of will. He cannot risk as much as a murmur or a sneeze. Many of life's simple pleasures like conversation are denied to him. He must consciously control his autonomous functions every hour of every day. And he can't even sing along to his favourite songs.
