## Appearance

### **Physical Appearance**

#### Glory Days

In his youth, Ross was a scrawny string bean with a pale skintone and practically no muscle mass. His eyes were a sparkling and bright sea green colour and his brown hair was medium length, down to his chin actually.

#### Modern Era

Now, in his adult years, Ross filled out and gained a lot more muscle. He keeps an average figure but is well-toned and quite strong. He's a little less pale than he was in his youth and his hair has a few streaks of grey on the sides and has it cut shorter than it was when he was a kid. Even his eyes have changed to a duller sea green colour.

### **Clothing**

He used to wear light grey hoodies under black t-shirts paired with blue jeans and sneakers all the time; however, his woredrobe is much different now that he's older. He now often wears a white, short-sleeved, button-up shirt with khakis, a red tie, and some cheap office shoes.

### **Hero Uniform**

#### Glory Days

As for his uniform, Ross went by *The Sidekick*, or just *Sidekick*, back in the day and as such had a different uniform. He donned a long-sleeved blue shirt that bared the crest of the House of Am, dark jeans, gym shoes, fingerless gloves, and aviator goggles.

#### Modern Era

When he took over as Superhero for his father, Ross lightly modified the uniform. He changed out the red cape for a red trench coat but kept the blue shirt that bares the crest of the House of Am. He pairs this with dark blue jeans, red boots, blue gloves, and did away with the aviator goggles. He, instead, opted to replace them with a blue domino mask.

## Personality

Though he can be called altruistic and heroic like his dad, Ross tries to show that he will be a quite different Superhero from his dad. He recognizes the mantle as his responsibility and acts as heroic as he can despite secretly loathing the Superhero life. He wants to be able to put his family first, he does, but life as Superhero and the duties that follow are always forced to be at the forefront.

## Skills and Abilities

### Xenonian Physiology

Ross is half Xenonian. This presents him with powers beyond that of any human. Becasue of his Xenonian DNA, Ross possesses a weakness to a radioactive stone from from his father's homeworld called **Xenonite** and is also weakened by White Sunlight. However, since his cells collect and process yellow sunlight, Ross is capable of retaining all of his powers outside of zones with comparitively weakened gravity and yellow sunlight.

#### Invulnerability

Xenonian skin is incredibly tough. Bullets are stopped dead in their tracks, missiles don't even leave a scratch, and even nuclear warheads don't make Ross flinch. There is nothing on Earth that may present a way to harm him.

#### Infrared Vision

Xenonians possess special ocular adaptations the give them the ability to view light in the Infrared spectrum. This ability allows him to see heat signatures.

#### X-Ray Vision

Xenonians possess a special optical organ within their eyes that produces an effect within their eyes that allow them to see within the x-ray light spectrum.

#### Laser Vision

Xenonians possess quite a few extra optical organs than humans. One of these optical organs, referred to as the *opticus ignis* by the first man allowed to fully examine a Xenonian, is capable of converting a solar charge into a concentrated beam of heat. These lasers that they produce appear in various colours and the lasers Ross produces are blue.

#### Super Vision

Due to the evolutionary necessity, Xenonians evolved extremely powerful eye sight in order to see on a homeworld with a White Sun. Since their vision is so many times better than a human's, Xenonians are capable of seeing clearly for hundreds of miles. They can even see the smallest of details.

#### Freeze Breath

Xenonians possess an extra, smaller organ within their lungs that holds a gaseous super-coolent. When they release the super-coolent gas alongside their breath, it causes anythinf caught within the range to be flashfrozen.

#### Super Senses

Due to the differing atmospheres between Xenon and Earth, Xenonians comparitivily possess senses a great deal more powerful than that of any human. Superhero, himself, once recalled that he was able to hear a pin dropping in Fiji from the Asteroid Belt.

### Flight

Compared to the gravity of Xenon, the gravity of Earth is a joke. Earth's gravitational pull is hardly capable of containing him after a jump; therefore, due to Earth's significantly weaker gravitational pull, and a mix of his speed & strength, Ross is able to attain flight on Earth and other planets with similar gravitational pulls.

### Superhuman Speed

Superhero is capable of moving at speeds of 49% of the speed of light due to Earth's joke of a gravitational pull.

### Superhuman Strength

Due to Earth's significantly weaker gravity, Superhero is extremely strong. On Earth, Ross is capable of lifting weight no human could ever dream of lifting. He can pick up buildings like they weigh no more than a single lego piece, he can throw mountains like their small stones, he can even casually carry islands and continents. However, Ross is only half as strong as his father.

## Equipment

Due to his inherant strength and powers, Ryan is unneeding on any equipment to help him in hero work.
