Profile

Kian is the proverbial fish out of water -- or at least bird out of his usual sky. Utterly unfamiliar with the planet Earth and its ways, very uncomfortable with his own powers, he has a whole lot of adjusting to do and probably not a lot of time to do it in. To those he does not know -- which is everyone right now -- he will be wary, but not unfriendly as such, and should be approached with caution. Not out of any danger he presents, but to avoid scaring him away.

FLIGHT

Kian has wings, and they work. Flight is as natural to him as walking is to a typical Terran, and with judicious use of thermals and gliding, he can keep it up for hours without tiring. While he normally couldn't keep up the place for long, he can push up to around 125kph in level flight and much higher in a dive, although in normal, casual flight he wouldn't get much above 60kph.

KEEN VISION

Kian quite literally has eyes like a hawk. He has remarkable distance vision, in the vicinity of 20/2 or 20/3. He also has a little night vision, and a rudimentary /tapetum lucidum/, so he has a faint red eye shine in the dark, like an owl. Which is probably a little creepy.

LIFE SUPPORT

Kian's powers appear to support him physically - he does not have the biological need to eat, drink or sleep, although he may choose to do so.

PHYSICS ELEMENTAL

Kian's powers are primarily about energy and forces -- generating, dissipating, concentrating, and/or converting it not only between forms, but to and from matter, in accordance with E=mc^2. An upper bound has not been reliably determined due to his unwillingness to really let loose; the most he is known to have handled in one instance is converting the entire energy output of a damaged fusion drive on a small space hopper to a tiny pellet of iron-56, before it could explode. This was the incident in which his powers were discovered.

Since they are the most common, he is most comfortable with electromagnetic effects -- one doesn't often encounter the strong and weak forces in daily life, at least in manipulable quantities -- and has shown no sign of being able to manipulate gravity, so it appears that his abilities are essentially those that dominate the atomic and subatomic scales. When using these abilities, or when agitated, he may develop a harmless blue aura, similar in color and form to Cherenkov radiation.

TELEPATHY

All of Kian's people are telepaths -- freely with other telepaths, but to make mental contact with a non-telepath, Kian will require physical contact. It is generally a surface level conversational type of communication, although with concentration Kian can go deeper into someone's mind (or his own). What Kian lacks is any sort of real mental shield. He can keep his mind to himself easily enough, but is accustomed to going about his daily life and dealing with freinds and family with his mind a little bit open at all times -- as was everyone else's.

Skills

AEROBATICS

Kian doesn't just fly, he flies well. Once in the air, he is graceful, agile and fast -- difficult to catch or hit.

EDUCATION

In the course of learning about his powers, and studying them, and of being studied, Kian became fascinated with the science behind them and has the educational equivalent of roughly a master's degree in general physics, specializing of course in the fields related to his powers. Along the way he's picked up quite a bit of advanced maths, and astronomy just because it's always fascinated him.

BUPKUS

Kian has nothing. He arrived on this world with the clothes on his back and that was pretty much it.

Weaknesses

CLAUSTROPHOBIA

Kian is catastrophically claustrophobic. He will be uncomfortable in any room that's too small to let him just hover in, and will resist going in a room too small for him to spread his wings. He might be coaxed into a van if there was a need to transport him somewhere and it wouldn't take long, but a car is completely out of the question. Seal him into a genuinely tiny space, like a closet, and there will be screaming, pounding, and ultimately the sound of a body going slack and unconscious -- no, it won't occur to him that he might be able to blast his way out, not in the state of panic he'll be in.

ENERGY DRAIN

While Kian's meta is defense against incoming energy attacks, it is vulnerable to energy drain attacks. Rather than shut down and starve the attack, his meta feeds it, a process that Kian finds difficult to control and physically disconcerting, eventually painful if it goes on long enough. The longer it goes on, the more difficult it becomes to bring under control. It is not known if this would ultimately be fatal -- needless to say, Kian is in no hurry to find out.

LEARNING CURVE

He's new to Earth. He doesn't know the language or the planet's ways. And he has no way home, so he's going to have to figure things out the hard way. (Note -- this will be less of a disadvantage over time, of course)
