Basics
Name: Cain Galloway
Nicknames: N/A
Age: 17
Birthday: January 22nd, 1997
Grade: 11th
Powers:
Extra Limbs: Four Arms
Cain has four arms. Both his sets of arms share what would be considered the proper shoulder axis, making it difficult to define which set was the 'original' pair. His front set of arms if often shifted forward and crossed over his abdomen for comfort, while the 'back' set functions as his proper arms. Both sets of arms are fully functional, and are capable of operating accordingly. In addition, all of his arms require proper workouts, one pair doesn't magically keep up with the other. If he ignored one set of arms during routine workouts, it would become weaker than the other set.
Enhanced Strength: Raw Power
He is strong, really strong, especially for someone his age and build. Cain is able to lift and carry far more than an average human being should be capable of. He can punch dents into concrete walls without breaking a sweat, his grip can crush most things. To date his record for lift was 1,200lbs. He is able to double that if he dedicates all four arms to the feat. This only makes him strong. He is no faster or quicker on his feet for it, but his jumping skills are pretty impressive now.
Enhanced Density: Like a Rock
Cains molecular density has been increased substantially with his power. This makes him far more resilient to any physically oriented attacks. Small arms fire, weapons, fists and kicks, anything physical has a hard time inflicting much damage on Cain. This resistance isn't flawless though, and like any rock, it can be chipped down with time. The increased density also does nothing for protection from anything else. Elemental attacks, anything not physical, will effect him like a normal human. It goes without saying that the increased density ups his weight as well. This increased weight doesn't seem to slow him down in day to day activities, but he'll never be on the track team, so to speak.
Member Group: Prefects
Canon or not: Not
Appearance:
Height: 6'3
Weight: 350lbs
Hair Length: Very long
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Auburn
Standing at 6'3”, Cain is not a small man for his age, rather he is exceptionally tall. Even coming from America, he clearly hit an early growing spurt. Perhaps it was part of his power? Never the less, he has an imposing stature that suits his personality and his abilities. His extra arms feel almost natural in tandem with his muscular build. Still, his 'deformity' makes it impossible to consider him normal.
His skin is somewhat pale, but not unhealthily so, Cain has simply always had trouble tanning. His hair is very long, having not been cut since he was young. Usually it is tied into a single pony tail behind him, but if time permits, he will braid it tightly. Braiding it all takes time though, and with his habits and nature he is usually running too late to have the time.
Cain has a naturally athletic build, despite his weight on a scale. The density didn't effect his appearance, which he had toned from all his years fighting. Not overly muscular, but clearly in excellent shape. He may have been considered attractive at first glance, until they uncover a less than empathetic personality at his core.

Overall Personality:
Throughout his life, Cain had to fight for what he had. He grew up in a ghetto, life was never easy for him. He learned early on that what was yours, only stayed that way if you could hold onto it. Strength is what mattered, money is what mattered. So that's what matters to him the most now, he became violently defensive of his belongings. Though he never had many friends, the few he did have he protected with all he had.
Despite his violent nature, Cain has always tried to keep a good humor about him. Making light of situations like being beaten to a pulp, things like that. Laughter and Violence is how he got through his younger years sane, by his standards at least. However, at his core he doesn't have what it takes to be a leader. He's not very stupid, just not quick on his feet, he enjoys being told what to do by someone he respects. Who does he respect? People stronger than him, not people richer, money doesn't equal merit. If you're richer than him and stronger too, great, but richer and weaker will only get your money taken from you. Once he is given orders though, he'll follow through as best he can, he is dependable in that regard. While you shouldn't trust him with complex deals, something within his grasp he'll do to the best of his ability.
Cain isn't a bully though, he simply goes with the winning side when it presents itself. A larger group asks him to bend a knee? He'll do it. Someone tries to step up and make him seem weak? He will beat them down until they regret confronting him. Bluffing doesn't work, he'll often fight even when it's clear he shouldn't. Still, he isn't a bully, while the weak and cowardly disgust him, he has no reason to target them. What would he gain from it? As long as they stay down and out of his way he's got no reason to make life harder on them.
History
Family Members/guardians:
* Father: Mathew Galloway
* Mother: Phalon Galloway
History:
Born into a poor family, Cain was raised well enough with what was available. His father worked at a local warehouse. A split shift, pulling upwards of 15 hours a day at work, with few breaks while there, and a broken sleep pattern. His mother did what she could to keep their ramshackle apartment in order, to make sure a warm meal was ready for her husband when he came home. They didn't scorn him for being born, he wasn't raised by angry parents, he had a great childhood. It's almost funny how much they did right, considering how he eventually turned out.
For a long time they couldn't afford schooling for him, and had to home school him as best they could. However, Mathew had begun working extra hours every chance he got to save up and eventually register him to the public systems. It wasn't until that dream came true for their young family, that the cruel truth of reality came to Cain. It was 6th grade when it started, when he noticed how far behind the other students he was in knowledge. They bullied him, they took what little money he had, the snacks his mother had given him. It didn't take long for him to grow accustomed to this world.
By the 9th grade he had become violent, he had become strong, what was his was not to be taken. He was regularly sent home from school, scolded by his parents. His mother cried, not knowing where they went wrong; his father shouted, upset that their son had become a bully. A bully? Cain? They had no idea.. they struggled daily under the heel of those better off than them for scraps they called meals. He wanted to tell them the truth, he really did, to explain it all to them and hope they understood. All that came out though was shouting of his own, insults and verbal low-blows. His father would shout back, they would eventually let him storm off into his room. This had become a weekly event.
During his 11th year in school, a change took place without warning. Not a small one, he woke up one weekend night in agonizing pain. His parents ran to his aide, comforting him as best they could.. when all was said and done it was obvious what had happened. He was one of the 'gifted' individuals, he was different. He had grown exceptionally in height and muscle mass in the span of the night, and gained an extra pair of arms. His mother was too shocked to see him, his father called the hospital, the hospital alerted the 'Authorities'. It wasn't long before he was on his way to Ashford Academy. His mother never came to see him off.
While on the way to his new home, the general situation was explained to him. He decided quickly, easily, which side of the line to stand on. He wasn't going to be under the heel of society anymore, he wasn't going to break his back working a thankless job just to get by. He'd make it, by any means necissary.

RP Sample:
His orientation was pretty rushed. They explained most of what he would need to know inbound, in shackles. They clearly didn't trust him, 'no chances' they said with smiles. Smug smiles, fake smiles. They didn't like him at all, they were either terrified or disgusted with him, some of them both. This was all a charade they had to go through to get him from point a to point b, that was all, he wasn't dumb enough to think that this was legitimately for his own good.
Straight from the ride to the fitting room, his particular alterations required more on site tailoring to fit him. They worked like little worker bees, buzzing around him, measuring this and pinning that. When they had decided they had it, they took it to a sewing machines and in a jiffy, there it was. His brand new school uniform. The importance of the uniform was explained as they allowed him to try and put it on himself. It took getting used to, yet oddly, the additional arms movements came so naturally to him.. the adjusting phase was so brief. His mind, too, had probably been altered to accept them.
From there it seemed like they were finished with him. He had some paper work with a schedule, a dorm, and he was on his own. Wow, great entrance ceremony, wasn't entirely there fault though.. this was sort of last second. Crossing one pair of arms in front of his chest, the others locked fingers and rested behind his head. First things first, now that he was here, he needed to find out how to sign up with the winning team. “Well.. may as well make it a tour, yea?”A smile on his face, Cain stepped forward, entering a whole new world.
