Andrew Detmer

==Summary==
Andrew Detmer was a main protagonist before becoming the main antagonist of the 2012 film, Chronicle. He was a high school teenager who began videotaping his day-to-day life. Andrew was lonely and unpopular, bullied by his abusive alcoholic father and peers at his high school. His only friends were his cousin Matt and his mother who was dying from cancer. One night while out with his cousin at a warehouse party Andrew met Steve, a fellow classmate, who invited Andrew to a spot in the woods near the party where they met up with Matt and explored a large hole in the ground that emitted a strange sound. Entering the hole, they found a small tunnel leading to a large cavern with a glowing crystalline creature. Responding to the three boys, the creature began emitting louder more intense sounds giving them headaches and nosebleeds and creating a cave in. The boys managed to escape the collapsing tunnel and shortly after discovered that all three began to develop telekinetic abilities that grew stronger as they practiced with them. The three also possessed a low-level telepathic connection to each other and in moments of great stress could sense each other's emotional states and locations. After a time, the boys became close friends, reveling in their newfound abilities and using them for small jokes before moving on to more advanced feats like creating telekinetic barriers and flight, planning a trip to fly around the world together. However, after yet another beating from his father, Andrew fought back and injured him. Flying high into the sky during a lightning storm, Andrew's mental state began to deteriorate. Steve then arrived, sensing Andrew's distress, flying up and attempting to talk Andrew down. In his unhinged emotional state Andrew accidentally hit Steve with lightning, killing him. After this Matt began seeing Andrew as a threat, arguing with him about the use of their powers and later avoiding him. Andrew grew more withdrawn and started seeing his powers as a means to fight back against those who bullied him and a tool to get whatever he wanted. In an effort to pay for his mother's cancer medication, Andrew went on a crime spree robing neighborhood thugs and a local gas station. The latter leading to an accidental gas explosion that he survived using his powers but left him severely burned and unconscious. In the hospital Andrew's father arrived and told him his mother had died and blamed him. Andrew awoke, blew up his hospital room and flew out with his father, dropping him midair. Matt, having sensed Andrew's rage, arrived and saved Andrew's father. The two then engaged in a massive telekinetic battle throughout the city, wrecking several buildings and injuring multiple civilians and police officers. In a desperate attempt to save the innocent bystanders around them, Matt took Andrew by surprise and impaled him through the chest with a piece of a nearby statue. 
==Powers and Stats==

Name: Andrew Detmer, The Apex Predator (alias)
Origin: Chronicle
Gender: Male
Age: 17 (He was a Senior in High School)
Classification: Human, Psychic
Powers and Abilities: Superhuman Physical Characteristics (via Telekinetic Enhancement), Telekinesis (Possesses powerful telekinetic abilities that slowly grow in power if Andrew exercises them a lot, manipulation of objects from a distance, etc.), Forcefield Creation (Able to telekinetically shield himself from incoming attacks [not automatic, needs conscious action from the user]), Flight (via Telekinesis), Durability Negation (Can negate durability to an extent via manipulating the bones and organs inside a person's body), Limited Telepathy, Electricity Manipulation and Weather Manipulation (Able to control lightning bolts from storm clouds. Able to shape a cloud into a middle-finger)
Attack Potency: Human level physically, Small Building level with Telekinesis (One of his telekinetic attacks blew up a room and was compared to an explosion, capable of telekinetically crushing an entire car and blowing away multiple police cars at once with a large telekinetic shockwave. Threw a bus hard enough to shatter the front of a building. Stronger than Matt and Steve due to training his powers more, could effortlessly block one of Matt's punches and hold his own against Matt in a telekinetic battle despite being weakened). Can bypass conventional durability by aiming for internal organs.
Speed: Average Human with Supersonic reactions, combat, and flight speeds (Able to react while flying at high speeds through the air. Reacted to a plane flying at him, as well as objects thrown at him with telekinesis. Able to barely shield himself from a gas explosion that took him by surprise and repeatedly blocked bullets from small arms fire), likely Massively Hypersonic+ attack speed with lightning bolts.
Lifting Strength: Average Human physically, Class 10 via Telekinesis (Can easily lift and throw buses through the air).
Striking Strength: Human level physically, Small Building level with Telekinesis (Punched Matt Garetty through a building).
Durability: Human level physically, Small Building level via Telekinesis (His barriers allowed him to stop a barrage of bullets fired at him by police, plow through multi-story buildings with no injuries and survive being in the epicenter of a gas explosion. Though the latter left him burned and injured due to being caught off guard).
Stamina: Superhuman (Able to fight with another telekinetic while severely burned and injured by an explosion)
Range: Standard Melee Range physically, Tens of Meters via telekinesis

Intelligence: Academically smart but nothing out of the ordinary. Andrew was quick to learn new ways to use his powers. On the other hand, Andrew was pretty bold/stupid as a criminal.
Weaknesses: He's still physically human and can be harmed if caught off-guard. His telekinetic shielding only works while concentrating, requiring him to be aware of and focus on each incoming threat to fully protect himself. At the height of his power Andrew was emotionally unstable and rather easy to provoke.
