APPEARANCE:

 

There are a million ways to describe Julian Keller, and each of them, in their own right, are correct. He is an attractive young man, the result of a top-rate upbringing and a rather lucky pull from the gene pool. He has dark hair, which he usually keeps medium-short, sometimes letting it lengthen or cutting it much shorter. He has hard, brown eyes, and a solid physique.

No matter the occasion, Julian simply seems to radiate a noticeable air of nonchalance. Regardless what he is wearing, doing, or saying, people constantly get the impression that he doesn't need to try very hard at all in order to look how he does, act like he does, and generally by himself. He is often found wearing anything from full suits to a pair of sweats- he takes pride in his appearance, though, and makes sure never to look unkempt.

PERSONALITY:

 

Julian is an extroverted young man with lots of energy, an eagerness to prove himself, and a forceful and confident attitude. He is the first to volunteer, the last to leave class, and the first to wake up in the morning to go for a run. He is stubborn and unrelenting with himself, as well as his allies, and he is uncompromising to his enemies.

In social situations, Julian makes known what he wants to do, as well as what he thinks of what is happening. He is rarely ashamed of his own thoughts. In these situations, Julian uses his charm and projects the image that he is fun to be around in order to get his way. When mingling with his superiors, Julian still makes sure that his views are heard, though is more open to having his ideas rejected. It is obvious, however, that he documents when others do not listen to him, and never misses a chance to point out how success could have been accomplished, had they listened to him.

Despite his social standing, the boy has issues with people who simply ride along on their parents' wealth, or are talentless media-seekers. While he will tolerate those that allow themselves to be carried along on their parents’ success, he will never truly respect them, and will never truly call them a friend.

He has a powerful respect for hard work, and firmly believes that those who put forth effort receive what they deserve. Hellion has little patience for those who mope and groan about their situation, or the way that things are going for them. He is an advocate against inaction, and firmly believes than anything worth caring about is worth fighting for.

Due to a combination of his social standing and his outlook on life, Julian wants to make big changes in the world. He has the money, power, and influence allotted to him by his parents, and acknowledges it, determined to use it in any way he can to make his visions become a reality. To Julian, the most important part about having power is the willingness to use it. Without this willingness, he believes that the power is useless, wasted on those that don’t deserve it. This expands across the power he has in the form of money, and that which is given him by his mutancy. Anyone who can do something should do something.

GOALS:

 

To master his abilities and leave a lasting impression on the world.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

ADVANTAGES:

 

BLOODLINE - Being the son of a pair of multi-millionaire business tycoons has its advantages. Aside from the vast sums of money that Julian has at his disposal, thanks to his parents, one has to take into account the fact that the Keller family name is a powerful one. People usually don't want to get on the Kellers' bad side, and as such, will accommodate for anyone of their family.

CHARISMATIC - Perhaps a side-effect of his upbringing, Julian has a way of speaking that affords people to general agreeableness. He can talk his way out of most situations, and has been known to have entire groups of people laced delicately around his fingers.

CONFIDENCE - As a result of his unfailing success at getting what he wants, Julian is never concerned with failure. The boy is convinced that problems and issues needn't bother him as he will surmount them. This extends, though, further than that. Julian has absolutely no issue with making a spectacle of himself and sincerely believes that, with enough effort, he will be able to achieve anything at all.

PRESENCE - With an air about him that's akin to that of a celebrity, Julian simply cannot enter a room without people taking notice. This is, in part, due to way in which he carries himself and acts naturally- there is something in his personality that is wired to attract as much attention as possible.

POWERS:

 

TELEKINESIS - Hellion is able to move solid matter using his mind and psyche. When using his powers, his body gives off a bright, green aura, especially his hands, which seem to glow brighter than the rest of him. Also, Julian’s eyes begin to glow brightly, sometimes with green, crackling wisps coming off of them. Objects that Hellion is using his powers on tend to glow also.

Hellion’s powers developed extremely quickly compared to those of other mutants. Instead of developing slowly and growing steadily, they burst into bloom, leaving the youth with a large amount of power to control at once. This has caused a unique development in Hellion’s use of his powers. He can, with relative ease, use his powers on large scales (levitating large objects, blasting through things, etc). However, he has significant difficulty turning down the intensity of his abilities, and as such, fine control of his powers cannot be achieved. While he can lift a car, he cannot tie knots in a rope. Most often, attempts at minute uses of his powers result in dangerous, violent things happening.

Hellion is able to shoot blasts of concussive force which take the form of green waves/balls. With these concussive blasts, he is capable of great feats of strength that, otherwise, would be considered impossible.

Julian can manipulate objects of different sizes and shapes. Long range control isn't an issue, as long as his target is in his sight and within a half mile range. Hellion often over-taxes himself through overuse of his powers. This sort of over-working can lead to extreme exhaustion, unconsciousness, and sometimes physical damage to his body.

TELEKINETIC FLIGHT - By treating himself as an object, Julian is able to lift himself off the ground and fly. Flying in this manner can be taxing when done for extended periods of time. Carrying others with him not only wears him out faster, but also slows him down considerably.

TELEKINETIC FORCE FIELD – Hellion can produce force fields of varying sizes and shapes, but tends to resort to a spherical orb or solid wall. These fields shield him, and sometimes others, from varying degrees of danger. Its durability is dependent upon Hellion's state and how much energy he is putting forth to keep it steady. Obviously, it is much more difficult to keep his shield up while something is fighting against it. He can use this ability to shield others, as well as to imprison them.

FIGHTING SKILLS:

 

DIPLOMACY - After years of watching his parents weave their way through parties, talking to specific people and getting specific people to talk to one another, Julian has picked up a few tricks. He knows when to laugh at someone's jokes, when to flatter them, and how to mention something nonchalantly. He knows how to play the game, and he's surprisingly good at it.

FAST EXIT - Julian is never impeded when he truly wants something. If he wants to leave, there's hardly a thing in the world that'll keep him from doing it, and as fast as he wants to.

MANIPULATION - Partially due to how naturally charismatic he is, Julian has little trouble getting what he wants from people. He knows how to play with words and suggest just the right things. People hear what they want to hear- he just lets them hear it and reaps the benefits.

DISADVANTAGES:

 

COMPETITIVE - Constantly striving to be better than others, Julian is near-incapable of turning down a challenge. He gets an intense pleasure from beating others, and often challenges people to various competitions to assert his dominance. He adores his position at 'the top' and will fight to preserve it, all the while maintaining his sparkling image.

DETERMINATION - Raised by a true rags-to-riches story, Julian was a deepest belief that anyone can get anything they want, provided they try hard enough to get it. It's this sort of mentality that can drive a wedge between Julian and others- any and all of their problems are caused by a lack of effort on their part. At the same time, he sees any of his own shortcomings as reflections on himself and the amount of effort he puts into something. He can do it, he just has to try again, and try harder.

GRANDIOSE - Hellion has no understanding of subtlety. If it's with him, it's big and loud. He regularly makes a spectacle of himself, and has no issue with making things public. He vastly prefers large, wild parties to intimate get-togethers, and has made a habit of blowing some things out of proportion. Some believe that it is this part of his personality that keeps him from using his powers in minute situations.


EQUIPMENT

UNIFORM:

 

At first glance Julian's uniform looks to be standard, but it actually stands out from others' in that he had its component pieces individually tailored. Also, it has white trim.

EQUIPMENT:

 

State-of-the-art everything. Julian has every gadget and gizmo a teen could want, including a number of mp3 players, phones, and various other devices.

RESOURCES:

 

Excellent.

TRANSPORTATION:

 

Julian owns a gorgeous sports-car which he keeps in excellent condition. It can be replaced with a flick of a wrist, though, as his family had a number of... extras, just in case.


CONTACTS

CONTACTS:

 

Various talented, famous and rich people of Los Angeles from who he might be able to call in favours.

HISTORY

Julian was born into the obscene affluence of Beverley Hills. But this wasn't a home of the idle wealth so famously lorded in tacky television dramas; the Kellers themselves were high achievers and expected nothing less from their twin sons, James and Julian. Praise was given where it was due, but complacency was harshly discouraged, 'never assume that you have done your best' was their credo.

Julian worked hard at school. He was competitive at whatever he got involved in, academic, sportive, musical, lingual or artistic. Socially he was very adept, much more so than his twin, but that was the way of things where James was concerned. Julian has always covered his brother's back without question, defended him to the hilt. James was the only person in the world that Julian cut any slack for.

The boys' childhoods were filled with posh parties, endless praise, and every thing they could have wanted. The pair were never left wanting, and often made appearances at their parents’ important corporate dinners. As with every pair of twins, one was more successful than the other. James never seemed able to keep up with Julian in any area- academic, social, athletic… This wasn’t ever a cause for strife between the two of them, though. They loved each other above all else and, despite their differences, got along spectacularly. The fact of the matter, though, was that Julian would often take up a large portion of the limelight… something James never let on bothered him.

Things went along wonderfully for the Kellers. Their sons went to school, and their business continued to flourish, their bank accounts growing and plumping with each passing day. Tabloids ate it up- a rags to riches story about a couple that started in some of the more cramped parts of California, made some wise decisions, and ended up raising two wonderful children in Beverly Hills. It was as if the American Dream had found a new spokesperson, four of them in fact.

Things seemed to just drift along wonderfully for the family, Julian in particular. That is, until one fine day during his senior year in High School. It was supposed to be the best time of their year- they were about to graduate, about to go out into the world and achieve things. There was hugging, there were tears, and there was all that melodramatic stuff that generally seemed to come from this time of year. Julian was at a graduation party- though he couldn’t, for the life of him, remember whose it was. There was a full bar, a pool, and three stories of house for the over-the-top graduation celebration, and no matter where he went, Julian found a throng of people moving along to the droning beat being played over strategically places speakers. Some might have questioned the presence of alcohol at a High School party, but when the kids were this rich, they didn’t concern themselves with things like drinking-ages, why should they?

Needless to say, some of the guests started to get rowdy. Alcohol clouding their vision, a few of them started to get into a fight. When someone tried to intervene, they were met with a solid fist in the gut. Julian stepped forward through the crowd and tried his luck at stopping the fight, but soon found himself in the middle of a four-way brawl. There was a moment when he wasn’t sure what to do.

Immediately following that small, fleeting confusion, Julian was overcome with a feeling of power. Every pore was spilling it out, and every inch of his body seemed energized, electrified, and full of life. His body let out a blinding flash of green light.

Three broken windows, four destroyed tapestries, and a shattered chandelier later, Julian was standing in the middle of what had just been a fight. Now, though, there were just a few guys passed out on the ground, reeling in a drunken stupor, wondering who the hell had just run them over and who their parents were going to have to sue over this.

Pictures reached the internet in minutes, and news stories were being written and released in a number of hours. The topic, though, wasn’t the property damage or the drinking at a teen party. What the pictures showed, and what the newspapers and magazines raved about, was the fact that Julian Keller, son of William and Elizabeth Keller, was glowing green. He was a mutant.

Connections, though- connections were everything. The Kellers knew enough people for this minor issue to pass by relatively smoothly. Yes, he was a mutant, and the world would be just fine with that… The sudden fame that Julian had found himself the center of drew a deep wedge between himself and James. Left in the shadows of his family’s history, the boy developed a huge jealousy towards his twin. They soon stopped talking.

All would have been fine, were it not for the public. Money and history can only get you so far when it comes to protecting someone from the destructive power of the population. It wasn’t long before Julian started getting disturbing, anonymous letters, emails, and texts. It would have been a different story if he hadn’t been a Keller- he was practically a public figure… people knew who he was, and people knew where he was… and now people knew what he was.

Sooner or later the Keller fortune wouldn’t be enough to protect him. At least for now, the Kellers searched for a place where they could, temporarily, hide their son…
