Basics
Name: Mac Laport
Nicknames: He hates them, but feel free to give him one~ cx
Age: 15
Birthday: January 24
Grade: 10th
Power: Digital Form - Mac has a digital form that he can transform into, which pretty mmuch just means that he can transfer his mental state into computers while appearing on the screen as a little pixel version of himself. Of course, this isn't limited to only electronics that have a screen. As long as it can be plugged in, he can access it. if a device needs to be plugged in order for it to work, Mac can't really do anything with the electronic until it is actually plugged in. However, if it only uses a plug to charge a chargeable battery, then Mac can easily hack his way into it. He is prone to viruses, so if he catches one while inside a device, he cannot exit this form until it wears off - like a cold or a flu. Sometimes, if he's unlucky, he'll only transform into a head with no body, and although this doesn't limit his ability to preform his usual activities, it does make him look rather odd. Mac can willingly change into this form if he clears his mind from any thoughts and relaxes, leaving his body behind. His body is affected by anything that happens to it while he is in this form, and any pain inflicted on his body will be felt by him once he returns to his body. Just like he can change his form willingly, there are times when he is pushed to this stage. For example, if he tires his body out physically or is active for more than his heart can handle, he appears to faint, but he's body is really just forcing him to rest while it rests. When he pushes himself like this, he can come back to his body in 30 minutes as long as he didn't push himself too hard. If he had exhausted himself to the point of 'ready-to-sleep-for-days,' he would be stuck in this form for about 2 hours.
Hacking Intuition - Mac Laport has the intuition to hack. Along with his third power, he can reprogram things to work in his favor and bypass security on a variety of networks. He can't exactly bypass securities programmed by the user's themselves, but he can breech almost any security that was programmed by big companies or are similar to these same companies. Any new security programs must be learned through trail and error, but other than that, he has the most primitive and common threads of code to bypass these types of firewalls embedded in his mind.

Appearance: Looking at Mac, the gender of this human being may be unclear. However, let me get this straight: Mac is a full-on boy. He just dresses as the opposite gender because of certain circumstances. Yes, let's call it that - 'certain circumstances.' Circumstances that will later be explained so just be patient! No matter how his outward appearance looks like, he's really fluid about how other people identify him. He, himself, calls himself a boy, but doesn't care how others perceive him. Mac prefers the female pronouns from others, but equally urges the male pronouns as well. After all, he does look like a girl; he expects those kind of pronouns. He, himself, aspires to wear men's clothing, but whenever he does, he looks like a female crossdressing as a male. Because he's built for it, that's one of the reasons he dresses like a girl.
Mac has big, round eyes that are the same shade of brown as milk chocolate. Surrounding his eyes are long, flittering eyelashes that would prohibit him from ever functioning with glasses correctly because of how they would rub against the glass. His hair is cut short, and the ends of his hair naturally curves outwards. The style is cut short in the front, not even close to touching his shoulders, while the back is longer and actually brushes against his shoulders every once in a while. He stands in at the short height of 4'4, as he hadn't hit his growth spurt just yet, and his body has a slim and slender figure - like a girl's. His feet and hands are small in size, about three-fourths the size they should be, and his hands are rather dainty-like. His skin is quite soft, as he takes care of it exceptionally well, and often puts lotion. His voice, like his height, hasn't hit puberty yet, so he has his upper range all to himself. Mac's voice comes out high-pitched and feminine, but he'll hardly ever go quiet. This really does make it harder to tell his gender, doesn't it?
Now onto the 'certain circumatances' - the reason why he's like this. Mac has heart problems, considering it's weak and doesn't work exactly how it's supposed to. He can't exercise much, or it'll cause his heart to go into over-drive and cause him to have some kind of small heart attack. This caused him to be quite frail and weak, as he could never have the opportunity to build up muscle. However, he does have great upper body strength for a boy like him. It's not as tough you can see muscle, yet with this natural strength, he can easily do push-ups and pull-ups without working as hard. In the end, this his go-to exercise.
Personality
Overall Personality: Mac comes off as a very intelligent and polite person - which he is. He values these traits dearly, and he does his best to maintain them. He speaks in a formal way, though he does sometimes lose this tone when he becomes over-excited. He tends to read a lot to keep himself refreshed over information, often filling his head with random facts. At first impression, he always seems polite - often curtsying when introducing himself, giving off a very 'lady-like' (or 'gentleman' like if the person identified him as a boy) vibe. He's a very friendly person - no matter how the person reacts to him. That's just how he is; in the end, he can at least say he tried.
However, once he introduces himself, he'll let go a little. If you get him excited, he'll become to act more childish, forgetting about how he original planned to present himself. This is one sure fire way to get him like this: talk about his passion, electronics. He hates himself for getting this way, but it's just a natural trait he possesses. This is the self he tries to hides from others, but to no avail. It always seems to come out sooner or later.
When he is his usual self, and not his child side, you'll see him more thoughtful and observational. He'll think more than he acts, processing the possible options and consequences before making a full decision. While he thinks, he also tends to observe more of others. Anything he finds intriguing will soon be typed onto his computer in a special time until he needs it. Spending more time thinking than talking, he types quite a bit. He even has his own little computer diary. All of his notes - all of his observations - are organized in a taste that makes sense to Mac but most likely not someone else. He tends to be a very organized person, wanting everything to be clean and tidy and simply perfect.
He's very sneaky with how he gathers information, and you'll hardly notice the way he words his questions. He does this as though not to cause alarm, only to later use these 'observations' to his own uses. Yes, he's a manipulative little boy, and he's not afraid to blackmail someone for the heck of it. He'll offer up information about himself - stuff that he finds irrelevant and no real meaning to him - to keep suspicion from arousing from the way he asks so many question. Mac is a very careful person, watching for clues as to what and what not to say. He would never intend to offend a person, so he's very tentative about what he says and does. However, because of these traits, he knows how bad and evil people can really be, so he's very wary to place his trust in others. It'll take a while before he can trust you, even if he does accept you as a friend from the get-go. He only does this to keep you close so he can make sure he has enough time to completely warm up to you.
As I stated before, Mac tends to ask a lot of questions. This is because of his curious nature. The curiosity may have killed the cat, but it's what Mac strives on. It's what keeps him motivated to be friendly and learn more like others, and it's because of this that he observes. However, he tends to be quite judgmental when it comes to others. He'll base his thoughts off a person depending on what he observes, not even caring as to how the person truly is or acts. Mac, himself, is a very rational fellow. He doesn't necessarily hope for something he'll never have, but he doesn't think of the worse case scenario. He knows that these two things aren't helpful in the long run, so Mac tends to analyze the situation and determines a list of possible outcomes.
He's a very blunt boy, speaking his mind when he thinks the time is 'appropriate' even when it isn't. Mac knows how this could possibly hurt the feelings of others, but he believes that lies would hurt even more if the truth was told later. Even if others call him out on his bluntness, he's a stubborn little boy and will deny doing anything wrong. Mac stands by his decisions, and he won't back down without a fight... that is, a verbal fight with words and intelligence. His next two traits, however, contradict themselves quite a bit. You see, Mac is a confident little boy who has no self esteem. He'll put his worries aside and say everything he thinks with a bold front, but inside, he's always second-guessing himself and putting him down. It's actually quite odd on how he acts like he knows everything, but even he knows that half of what he says is mot likely entirely false.

Younger Sister - Alive
History: Mac was born in a little village in the UK, whose view was always that of a sea side front. His father was a fisherman, his mother was a stay-at-home mom, and his older sister was a nuisance. Even as a kind, he was small and tiny, and his sister would often dress him up as a doll, as if he was one himself. No matter how much he protested, he was still dressed up and played with - no opinion was ever asked of him. It frightened him to an extent; he was scared of what his sister would do to him if she ever got her hands on him after that. He would always be left behind with the dolls around him at “tea time,” their eyes staring at him and deep into his soul. It really blossomed his fear of dolls. For a little boy like him, it was a traumatic experience, but it also brought his feminine side.
From the day he was born, he was destined to take out over his father’s fishing industry. Personally, he wasn’t fond with the idea, especially with his heart condition. His parents were dead set on making him the new head, however, but were disdained as their son grew up wearing feminine hand-me-downs and becoming more girly by the day. Of course, what they hadn’t known was the reason behind these changes. Mac, himself, felt like he had no other choice. There was the fact of carrying on the business, but his condition wouldn’t allow him to work; thus, he was scared he was going to fail his family and bring the company into bankrupt. Him forfeiting his right to the company by being a girl was the only option in his mind, and it seemed that everyone he met believed he was a girl anyway. In the end, it seemed like it was the best option for both parties - even if his parents had their doubts.
3 years later, his younger sister had been born. Now, Mac wasn’t exactly happy to have another kid in the family, but he actually grew fond of her. He had treated her kindly and with much respect – the things he wished he had when he was younger. He shared all of his secrets with her as they grew up together, planning out their hopes and dreams. She understood his reasons for being the way he was, and she was the only one in their family that fully supported him. It seemed as though everything would be alright for this small little family – that is, until the day of the accident.
It was a dark and stormy indeed when Mac’s dad had decided to go out fishing. He thought he could come back before things got too bad, yet it was too late. His ship had crashed just before it reached the shores, and all that had been inside died. The whole family was shaken to the core, and his mother made the haste decision to run from their home and find a new life in America.
At this time, she ashamed of her son, and thus, she pretended as though she never had a son. Every paper that told of Mac’s gender was disposed of and replaced with those saying he was a girl. He had changed genders legally because of shame, and he felt ashamed himself. It was then he made a vow to become more manly when the time would come – to live his father’s memory in honor. He fell into a depressive state after moving to America, his sister being the only one to comfort him. He was a loner, and he didn’t really have any friends until one fateful day.
Because of his loner ways, he had always been a target of verbal bullying, yet there was one time when it go to the point of physical harassment. Although he looked like a girl and his papers said he was of the female gender, almost everyone had a sneaking suspicion that there was something hidden from them. Thus, to put the rumors to rest, some of the guys had an idea on how to prove whether or not Mac was truly a girl.
