Basics

Name: Malik J. Roberts

Nicknames: None Yet

Age: 16

Birthday: November 14

Grade: 11th

Power:

Electrokinesis: Malik has the unique ability to generate and manipulate lightning. Currently, he can generate lightning from his body, but not summon it from external sources such as the sky. Summoning lightning from the sky takes far more mastery, but so far he is only able to generate his respective element from his body. When using his abilities for offensive purposes, he uses his hands to fire lightning bolts. He can discharge electricity from his body as well. He primarily uses his hands to release the electrical energy. He can also discharge lightning from other parts of his body. He uses his legs as another way to use his electrical discharge when his hands are either restrained or he decides to use his legs instead. He can even release the lightning from his entire body. Malik can also concentrate his electricity into spheres. It takes up to 1 post to create. After he is finished creating it, he throws it like a ball. The power within these spheres can deal more damage than the lightning bolts he fires. When they make contact with an object after thrown, they create a small, electrical explosion. On contact with a person, all the concentrated electricity within the sphere will inflict damage in the spot where it hits, sending out an impact that pushes them back up to 2 feet. The opponent not only receives a circular, first degree burn, but an aching pain. Malik's lightning powers can also stun someone or paralyze them, like a taser. This effect is active and can be triggered, if Malik altered the electrical current to that of a strong taser. The amount of time the person stays paralyzed is up to half a post.

During his one year of training with his father, Malik has discovered other uses for his powers. One of them is a passive ability. Since Malik controls and generates lightning, he is immune to his respective element along with other sources of electricity. This shields him from burns and other negative effects it has on humans. Malik can also recharge electrical machine and devices including electronics. It's a handy ability in which his doesn't require a charger for his phone.

There are many weaknesses Malik possesses for his powerful and versatile ability. Currently, he is only able to generate 200 million volts. This is so far shown not to be a problem, unless it involves him generating more power than 200 million volts. If he goes any higher than his current maximum level, he will be exhausted afterwards and will require 4 posts to recharge his powers. For recharging devices and machines, it will usually take him 2 to 3 posts, depending on the size of the object.

Malik's lightning powers are mostly ineffective against rubber, considering rubber is an insulator for electricity. This also applies to substances that contain portions of rubber, but they have a lesser nullification effect than pure rubber.

Electromagnetism: In his one year of training with his father, Malik has learned to tap into magnetic fields using electrical currents. With this sub-type power, he can levitate metallic objects and substances. His electromagnetism does have weaknesses, though. There is a limit to how much he can levitate with his electromagnetic ability. He can only lift up to 300 pounds of metal. Whether how much or how little, if they all equal 300 pounds, that's his limit. The speed of the levitation is also limited to 20 feet per hour. Malik has also learned to attract and repel metallic objects. He can repel them with enough force to deliver enough damage that can cause bruises up to broken bones, depending on the mass and size of the object.

Member Group: Neutral, but wants to join the Battle Front when he meets them.

Canon or not: Not

Appearance:

 Malik is of average height and above for a boy his age and average weight as he's 5 feet and 10 inches tall, while weighing 151 pounds. His skin tone is a shade of chocolate brown. He inherited it from his mother, but her skin tone is a slightly darker color. His hair color is black and mid-length as it reaches to the bottom of his neck. Three bangs hang in middle-front of his forehead, while two, longer ones hang on each side of his face also, covering the left and right side of his forehead. His eyes are a shade of golden brown. Sometimes when using his powers, his eyes glow electric blue. This is most evident when he is angry. On his face, he wears grey framed glasses.

For his casual attire he wears a black shirt with a white outlined, black lightning bolt on the front. It's hidden by his cyan blue hoodie. It's his favorite hoodie as he always washes it and has it wrinkle free, so it looks brand new. The pants he wears is a sky blue color. They're long and slightly baggy at the bottom where they end at his ankles. The last piece of his outfit is his grey Jordans. They also have cyan blue designs on them.

His school uniform is exactly like the others the students wear at Ashford Academy during their hour of attendance. He wears a red dress shirt with sleeves varies depending on the seasons. From Fall to Winter, his shirt has long sleeves and from Spring to Summer, it has short sleeves. Worn over this piece of clothing is a white blazer with the academy's emblem over the left area of his chest. It also varies depending on what season it is. He usually only wears it in Fall to Winter. In Spring to Summer, he only wears his red dress shirt. On the lower part of his body, he wears black pants. Finally, he wears black dress shoes.

Malik is slightly muscular as a result of his training from his father. However, the structure of his body can't be seen with his clothes on. Being slim, his muscles are shown to be small, but still fit. The small muscles lean closer to his upper-body due to him lacking strength in this region. Malik does, however, have strong legs from running and training with his father. As a result, he can run at an above average speed. He also possesses a large amount of stamina, so he's able to cover long distances.

No matter what problem is presented to him, he will assist in helping them.

He will also, do any favor for his friends and family, unless it's an evil thing from an evil person. Malik has a calm and collected personality and so, is able to remain calm in dire situations. An example is a serious battle against a powerful enemy. In these dire situations where his friends are losing focus, fighting with each other, or don't know what to do, he calms them down and tries to think of a plan to turn it around. Malik is very intellectual, having much knowledge of other things in the world. These subjects include geography, history, natural laws of nature, technology, chemistry, grammar, art, astrology, and mythology. This quality of his makes him able to devise strategies and tactics in battle. Malik is also quick to understand what others are trying to imply, such as a goal or simple answer to a question.

The boy may have a calm personality, but he does have a temper. It's very hard to get him angry, as he is always calm and stays collected when someone insults him or even hits him, but in certain situations, his temper will explode to the surface. He gets a furious look in his eyes and becomes fierce. Despite him usually being quite, he can raise his voice to a louder than usual volume, so other will hear him. He may not know it, but Malik can be very courageous. Whether it's a witch, demon, or anything else fearsome, he'll stand his ground, especially for his friends and family.

History

Family Members/guardians:

Cortez Roberts(Father)
Monique Robert(Mother)
Marques Roberts(Younger Brother)
Makayla Roberts(Youngest Sister)

History: Malik was born in Baltimore, Maryland, into a family of gifted individuals. His mother and father are gifted with the ability control a respective element of their own. Their names are Monique and Cortez Roberts. As a little boy, Malik has always been interested in the gifted. His mother would tell him stories of the adventures she and his father had in the afternoon and at night as bedtime stories. His father would even show some entertaining tricks with his powers. His mother would also pitch in. At seeing their trick, Malik smiled and complimented them. This would bring smiles to their faces. Malik has a younger brother and younger sister, who are also gifted. However, they still have yet to awaken their powers.

Much like other gifted people, the Roberts Family member's powers awoke when in their teen years. Malik grew up being a normal boy until he was a teenager, which proves further the awakening of the Roberts Family abilities. His parents often hid their powers from regular humans as to avoid discrimination. In his childhood, Malik wondered when he would get his powers. At the age of 10, he asked his mother and father when he will be getting abilities of his own. They told him that people like them usually get their powers when they became teenagers usually starting from the age of 14. This means that Malik had to wait a good number of years before his abilities manifests. The boy was very patient, so he can handle being normal longer. It's rare for members of their family to develop powers at an earlier age. In that time, Malik had dreams of being a hero, using his powers for good instead of hiding them for fear of how he would be treated by regular humans in Maryland.

When Malik was 10 years-old, his father got a job in the country of Japan. His family, of course, had to move to that certain region. It is an interesting place filled with wonders. The culture was also interesting to the culture. Of course, since this is Japan, Malik had to learn and study japanese. It was of little difficulty mastering a second language. This also meant that Malik had to attend different schools, such as a japanese junior high school. Through the rest of his childhood, Malik was very happy along with his family. He even made new friends along with his brother and sister.

When he turned 15, he began showing signs oh having powers. The first time they began manifesting was when he was studying. The lamp on his desk beside him began to flicker. Following the flicker were electrical sparks appearing on his hands along with electricity coursing around his body. Malik called for his parents to come in to have them see what was happening. When they arrived, they were shocked to see their son has finally developed powers of his own. Shortly after, the flickering of the lamp stopped and the electricity soon disappeared from Malik's body. His father asked for him to come downstairs, so he can explain. He asked him if he remembers the time he asked him and Monique about when he would develop powers. Malik nodded and soon came to realized that what happened earlier were his powers awakening. His father explained that people like them all have unique abilities, but for him he inherited his father's powers. This helped cleared why his family's powers were so similar when looking through their heritage.

A year has gone by since Malik's powers manifested. During that year, he was trained by his father, since he possesses electrical powers as well. Through this training, Malik had learned many uses for his powers. This was to prepare him for entering the school that were taking teenagers to train for there special abilties. Now that Malik was 16, he was now in japanese high school. A little while after becoming this age, certain individuals arrived at his home. They were requested Malik to attend the Ashford Academy. The boy willingly accepts and was soon helped with packing his belongings. After moving to the island in the Pacific, the boy was niw enrolled as one of the students. He hopes to one day use his powers for good and protect the innocent from evil. True there were good people with interesting powers, but there were also villains who use their own abilities to harm others for either personal gain or pleasure. Powers or not, there are evil people walking around in the world, plotting a heist or an even bigger plan. Malik hears or sees a villain causing trouble, he'll use his powers to stop them and help the innocent.

Behind the Character

Name: Malik

Chatango Name: mjt016

RP Experience: At least for 2 years

How did you find us: I was looking for an animanga gifted rp on google.

RP Sample: The young electrokinetic walked down the halls towards the classroom where classes were being held to help gifted individuals master their abilities. He signed up willingly for this curriculum, so he can become stronger and learn what else he is capable of. After all, heroes train hard at times during the day and discover various powers unused. He does wonder what other feats he can accomplish other than firing lightning from his palm. He already knows electromagnetism, specifically speaking, he has some control over magnetic fields. This is done by tapping into them through electric currents. Both electricity and magnetism closely correspond with one another and so are able to generate each other. It would make sense for an electrokinetic such as Malik to be able to tap into magnetic fields through electrokinesis. So far. he is currently only able to levitate metallic objects and move them around with the air through motions of his hands. His limit is also manipulating metal equal to 300 pounds in weight. Malik was thinking of applying the property of attraction and repulsion to his electromagnetic abilities. That leaves his mind open to more possibilities of what these ideas can do in battle.

The boy sees the door to the classroom come into view as he continues farther down the halls of the academy. He was actually excited to train inside there. He does have to remind himself that this is a school for various student with super powers, so he wonders what abilities he will witness upon entering the room. He also wants to know who the teacher of this classroom is. He hopes for this adult to be fair and yet, tough at the same too. This is so the person in question is able to push and encourage his students to new heights to achieve new levels of power. The many abilities he could discover are innumerable.

When he was at the door, he stopped in front of it. He felt nervous about opening it and observing the many students and teacher who taught them. Sometimes, first impressions matter greatly. He hope they don't matter here in the event he makes a fool out of himself. Though, he doubt that will happen. Malik can be very composed and is quite shy n the presence of strangers. It can also be a hint at his innocence. The boy couldn't think of one time he embarrassed out of nervousness such as a trip or falling into an unknown substance. He may be anxious now, but that will not cause him to humiliate himself in front of the class behind the door from which he stood.

He took a deep breath and exhaled to calm himself. He wants to build up his confidence before entering. There may be traces of anxiety within him, but that was alright by his opinion. He was now ready to walk through to a new experience that would open limitless possibilities for his powers. He raised his right hand, gently placing it on the doorknob. At that moment, he felt a surge of excitement. He was anticipating that he would see impressive use of various abilities. With a turn of the knob, the boy opened the door. He then, walked within the boundaries of the classroom.

What was witnessed by the young electrokinetic was astounding. From as far as he could see, he saw multiple gifted practicing their individual powers. The kind of gifts they possess were interesting. He even saw other element wielders, only in such small numbers. From what he can tell, he may be the only student in here with the power to control lightning. He was as one would say, a "One of a Kind".

'Wow, look at all of these gifted. Their powers are impressive and appears they can be used for more than what they are displaying.' Malik thought, observing the multiple abilities of the students training within the power class. They all seem to be doing well in training. This encourages him to practice his power as well. He was excited to discover what else he can do. He walked to a large, open space within the gymnasium-like room and observed further the background. What could he do with his powers without hurting anyone, was the question on his mind right now. He saw a small metal sphere on a thin pole with a flat top nearby and got an idea.

'Hmm, this metallic material gives me a little inspiration. How about I try my electromagnetism while applying the property of attraction. This would certainly open more possibilities for various uses for my sub-power.' He thought, thinking of using his magnetic sub-ability in a similar way to that of a magnet. He held his right hand outward to the sphere and began to concentrate. Small electrical currents formed around his palm. Along the small streams of electricity, magnetic fields were morphing around it. They stretched out towards the metal sphere and caused it to levitate. Focusing his thoughts, Malik had the magnetic field pull the object to him. The metal sphere came at him quickly, but came to a slow stop and was gripped by his hand. The boy smiled that his attempt was successful. He then, held up the metal sphere and levitated it out of his hand. With a motioning of his palm in front of it, he prepared to repel it instead. He aimed at the thin pole that held the object in the first place and focused on pushing the sphere with the magnetic field around it. He had to concentrate on giving it a strong, sudden push for it to be harmful.

With the strong propelling, magnetic force emitted from his hand, the metallic ball flew towards the thin pole. The ball showed no sign of stopping. It was moving at a high rate in terms of speed. It moved so fast, that when it collided with the pole, the object broke it in two. When the sphere landed, it quickly, yet steadily rolled along the room's floor. Malik was happy that his success at utilizing his electromagnetism in another way. A smile showed evidence of his glee.
