Basics
Name: Kari Douglas
Nicknames: Smokey, Haze
Age: 17
Birthday: May 5th
Grade: 11th
Power: Kari has control over gases on the periodic table, as so he is able to form and create new chemical makeups and handle hazardous elements, depending on the amount though it can cause serious bodily harm to Kari.
He is able to manipulate and control the Noble gases on the periodic table as well as some Halogens and non metals such as Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Fluorine.
He can also use this as a weapon, shooting streams of gas at an enemy, or increasing the air pressure around an individual, causing them to feel immense pain. Or even making the air more dense so it is harder to breathe, although most of these effect Kari as well as everyone in that area. By drawing the gasses in the air already around Kari he can combine them together to create chemical makeups. Although some of the makeups would become uncontrollable after made.
For example he could combine oxygen and hydrogen together to make water, but at that state it would just drop onto whatever is under it.
Kari can go from only being able to create the minimalist drop of water to being able to fill a room, all that he needs is the required source of elements to do so. His powers may let him control gasses but it does not let him create matter out of no where. Although manipulation of radioactive gasses can be controlled, but not for extended amounts of time.
=Subskill one: Element Seeking: Kari is aware of the air floating around him, he constantly can feel vibrations through it and feel the many types of molecules floating around. Although the ability to differentiate between them is quite difficult without proper understanding of the element structure.
=Subskill two: Element Projection: Kari has the ability to manipulate and move the air around him. As such this allows him to control gas into concentrated streams. The ability also allows him to create things like pressure waves.
✰ P O W E R W E A K N E S S :
Kari is also at risk when he uses his powers to draw the oxygen out of the room, or if he creates a hazardous chemical. Although he can create it that does not mean that he is immune or does not have to breath, his body works like everyone else.
His power created a sort of mental sense with the gasses around him, but decreases his own mental guards making him highly susceptible to mental attacks such as telepaths.
His body also has a sort of self preservation that it goes through if he is ever locked away from a flowing source of oxygen, such as if he were in a air tight room or trapped in a cave. His body intentionally shuts itself down in to a coma like state. During this coma his body pulls gases his body needs to survive towards him, but just enough to keep him alive well he is unconscious. Although it keeps him alive, during this time he is completely immobile and unable to wake up unless exposed to higher amounts of gases.
Member Group: Neutral
Canon or not: Not
Appearance: Kari has a very small frame mostly because of his age but partially just because that is the way he is, he has a long spindly frame, making him slightly tall for his age, and although he looks rather thin he has quite a good amount of lean muscle.
Kari has the oddest color of dark blue hair that drapes down below his shoulders with its silky and smooth texture. His hair is Kari's pride and joy, he keeps it as clean as possible and well conditioned. Some may say he is quite girl like by managing it so often so but he usually scoffs and walks away.
His eyes are the oddest shade of bright blue that seem to have a eerie shine like they are looking right through you. Their piercing glow seem like they have a rather friendly quality to them, a glimpse into the real Kari even though his outer appearance is hard and cold.

Overall Personality: Kari is often light headed and as most would call him a daydreamer, most of the time works to think things out before he does them although that plan doesn't always fall through.
Sure he stays calm and try's not to let anything get to him, but he has a problem when people ask to many questions, or more or less bug him to no end.
He often doesn’t show his emotion, which has made most people drift away from him because of his rather cold nature. Kari can be very patent when he wants to be, but more than often he has trouble paying attention to one thing for a prolonged period of time.
To most he seems like a spoiled rich boy and mostly that is what he is, he has trouble not getting what he wants and if he is refused he usually goes off sulking somewhere until he thinks it through and comes back.
Kari doesn't like to go off the handle and he often knows what’s best, or at least he thinks he does.
To most people he seems like one of the people who you usually never notice because of his quiet attitude, sitting on a bench somewhere as everyone passed by without saying a word.
Although he seems cold and distant he has a soft side that no one sees.
History
Family Members/guardians: His parents
History: Born in a small family as an only child Kari was protected by his family, often being sheltered and over cared for. Needless to say the over pressuring demands of his parents led Kari to being a rebel of sorts, staying out late without warning, smoking and even the locational act of vandalism. He went to a large school on the edge of Sacramento in the suburbs with many other people, only making friends in his own sort of crowd, never being one to spread out much. He constantly complained about his parents having a curfew for him and he sneaked out constantly, disregarding his parents rules. For most of his life he was a ordinary teen, minus the bad habits and irresponsible friends.
One time as he sunk out a van pulled up where him and several of his Friends where hanging out and he was mugged.
Although he escaped with only minor injuries he was weak and couldn't continue running, soon he found himself passed out on a bench in the middle of central park. He woke up delirious and he had one hell of a headache, he wandered around the park for a while eventually stumbling into the street.
Although he was to delirious at the time to realize what he was doing he continued to walk forward, cars buzzing by quickly and he started to step out off the sidewalk.
His eyes were half open, otherwise he probably would of noticed the faint trail of smoke drifting up from his mouth and out into the air.
Then something happened that made him come to his senses, there was a loud noise, a car horn to be more precise. And not only that but it was getting louder as the car got closer. Kari snapped to his senses and raised his hands covering his face. But in a instant the car was screeching as it rolled on its roof across the asphalt. He looked around, and then quickly checked himself but he was fine. Little did Kari know he had caused a pressure wave to explode under the car, causing it to fly in to the air, before quickly dropping back down to earth behind him.
This was the first time that Kari even realized that he had mutant powers, although he was more confused then he was surprised.
After all he didn't have any signs of being a mutant, other than his almost glowing eyes. But for the most part he could pass for a normal person so he decided to keep the fact hidden from everyone he knew.
Everything seemed normal for the next couple months, although then the call came. The Ashford Academy sent him a invitation to join their prestigious school. Naturally his parents signed him up immediately, hoping that the new school would change his rebellious attitude. So he was sent off, unsure of what to expect at his new school. And unsure of how he would handle it.
Behind the Character
Name: Just Kari works
RP Experience: A good 3 years
How did you find us: Through proboards support
RP Sample: Kari sauntered through the streets of New York, a cigarette hanging from his lips as he looked through the crowds. So far the day seemed pretty uneventful, the reason he enjoyed walking around with all of the normal people. But he snapped out of his daze as he found himself bumping into a man next to a van.
"Sorry.."
He briskly started to pass by the man, although something odd happened. He heard a soft hiss like a BB gun, followed by a sharp pain in his side. A moment later he found himself being pulled into the van before passing out.
Although his sleep was interrupted by the sharp pain returning in his side yet again. He grumbled rather unhappily as he found himself laying on the floor. His head was pounding, he had no idea how long it had been sense he had smoked a cigarette. Let alone any idea where he was or what had happened. Slowly he pushed himself to his feet and looked around in a daze. At first glance he saw two other people, a metal man armed to the teeth, and a girl calmly standing there.
Although after a moment his vision adjusted and he looked past the two at the enormous robot. He felt his heart skip a beat for a moment as he looked at the other two in disbelief.
"What the HELL is going on!?"
