**Theodore Malachi "Theo" Carson** is one of the main characters on The Superior series. Theo is the firstborn son of Violet Carson, an Oasian Queen and billionaire extraordinaire and Black Skull, a tyrannical Oasian dictator, the older maternal half-brother of Aliya Carson and Amari Carson, the boyfriend/best friend of Nevaeh Ortiz, the best friend of Chase Proctor and the godson of Geoff Ortiz.

Theo is an Oasian, born on the planet Oasis, known as **The Savior** and possesses extraordinary powers, primarily Electromagnetic Energy Manipulation, allowing him to manipulate electrical currents, generate electricity, light, channel lightning from the sky and even manipulate and control the entire electromagnetic spectrum as a whole. When he was sixteen, his latent ability for the use of the Phoenix Force allowed him to unintentionally activate a dormant Oasian meteorite, that unlocked his and his friends latent paranormal powers, originating from his home planet known as the Oasis.

After which, they were confronted by genetically-engineered soldiers, known as Watchdogs with enhanced strength and speed who are after them, due to their activation of the meteorite. Unbeknownst to Theo, Nevaeh and Chase, the Watchdogs were under the leadership of the head of a clandestine organization. Eventually after getting powers, he arose the attention of the Crescent Group, a group of humans who are aware of the existence of aliens and their paranormal abilities. He and the others discover that two students at the same school as them, Jonah and Luna, are both apart of the group and their history teacher, Nick Martin, is also a member.

Overtime, Theo begins to gravitate to Nick Martin and sees him as a father-figure. He is eventually visited by a mysterious shadowy figure in his dreams, known as Cloak, who seems to know more about their powers than they do. He thinks of himself as a teacher to Theo and is extremely cryptic and gives hints and riddles to Theo about their powers and helps them learn about who they really are, questioning their choices and their identities. This becomes temporarily second-rate to the biggest obstacle in their path, Chase's jealousy. Theo deduced the fact that Chase was being difficult and his powers were acting up was because of him being jealous of Theo and Nevaeh. After having a lengthy conversation with him, reminding him that he is his family, Theo gets Chase back on the right track. Due to this talk, Theo manages to piece together all of Cloak's hints and riddles, and discovers they are a message to who he really is and discovers and confronts his godfather, Geoff Ortiz, who is an alien from the planet Oasis, known as an Oasian and that he knows everything about the home planet and he learns that he was born there and is an alien. He even finds out more about who he is and is told that he was born there and is an Oasian himself, sending him into a moral identity crisis.

Eventually, while going through his identity crisis, he becomes closer to Nevaeh and they eventually share a kiss, which leaves determinable, unresolved feelings. He even manages to steal confidential files from a secret underground base and discovered who the head of the organization behind everything is, which changed everything for Theo, discovering it's his own mother, Violet Carson. During this time, they're identities were deduced and discovered by his and Nevaeh's younger siblings, Aliya, Prince and Amari and have to tell them everything, as they have seen them using their powers. This discovery sent Theo on a mission to uncover and soon confronted his mother on her actions, while suspecting her alien heritage. This was stalled when Nevaeh's older brother, Anthony comes home with his fiancée, Taylor, with their wedding coming up in a week. Anthony even tells Theo that he wants him to be the best man and gives him the wedding rings. After which, the Triad discovers the Crescent Group has been keeping their origins and missions away from them, which leads to them leaving the group and taking an old artifact of theirs.

On the day of Anthony and Taylor's wedding, Theo gives Anthony a pep talk about how Taylor's his true love and Anthony gives him one as well, about how he feels for Nevaeh and to let her in, which leads to him and Nevaeh evaluating their feelings for one another, as she confesses her long-standing feelings, and Theo tells her that he returns the feeling, as they kiss and officially become boyfriend and girlfriend, with Theo's emotions spiking and making the lights in the room flicker, overload and finally relight, as well as Nevaeh's powers making objects shake and entire vibrations around the room. After the ceremony, both Carson Enterprises and the Crescent Group attempt to ambush the Triad at Anthony's wedding, which Theo is the best man at. Then as the two groups ambush the wedding, they turn the reception into a massive battle and the Ortiz family discovers their alien heritage, as Anthony demonstrates he always knew about his abilities and has had access to them since he was thirteen, beginning to battle the two organizations to protect his family and new wife.

Six months after the battle at the Ortiz wedding, Theo and his triad have managed to unite both the Crescent Group and Carson Enterprises, to become Oasis-Corp, albeit with several financial and business disputes. After being lied to by his mother about him actually being an alien from Oasis, from Cloak, Theo feels so betrayed to the point where he moves out of the penthouse and moves in with the Ortiz family. While training the Ortiz siblings to use their abilities, he and Oasis-Corp become knowledgeable of a number of bank robberies with old Oasian artifacts being stolen.

## Powers, Abilities & Weaknesses

### Powers

**Oasian Physiology**: Theo is a royal member of an extraterrestrial species known as Oasians, and possess various paranormal attributes that are common among his kind. His "specialty" seems to be manipulating electromagnetic energy which he can use to heal or harm. He even possesses a large variety of other abilities, that are unrelated to his electromagnetic abilities. As stated by Black Skull, Theo has a pure and natural connection to the flora and fauna of the Oasis, that is natural correspondent with protons and electrons. This has allowed him to achieve and develop various new abilities.

* **Electromagnetic Energy Manipulation**: Theo's primary power is the ability to manipulate, charge or affect and disrupt electrical signals of the planet Earth, as well as the Oasis. He has demonstrated to be able to manipulate electromagnetic frequencies by psychically affecting their signals, allowing him to even project light energy that is able to physically affect signals and even create electrical discharges. He was taught by Anthony that he is able to access the entire electromagnetic system, allowing him access to the ability to manipulate light energy on a molecular level. With this knowledge, he began to expand his horizon of his abilities, allowing him to manipulate a range of several frequencies and wavelengths of light and radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum. This is often shown as an inadvertent emotional reaction and can result in blackouts to the shimmering lights. Whenever Theo utilizes his electromagnetic abilities, his eyes glow with different colors around his entire iris, turning it into a different color.
	+ **Electromagnetic Vision**: The first of Theo's manifesting abilities. Theo began unintentionally seeing the electricity and energy in people's bodies, as well as being able to perceive various forms of energy beyond the capacity of a regular human, which represented as his eyes glowing purple. After being taught by Anthony, he learned that since his sight is attuned to the entire electromagnetic spectrum, he can tune his vision to interpret and perceive the various ranges and forms of energy, such as seeing radio waves, including (AM, FM and TV frequencies), radar, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, gamma rays and even with enough concentration cosmic rays.
	+ **Bioluminescence**: Whenever accessing his powers, Theo's eyes glow a different color, covering his entire iris, including: golden yellow, blue, purple or magenta. By letting go of his inhibitions and worries, Theo's body is able to glow with bright colors and surround himself with glowing energy.
	+ **Radiokinesis**: Theo is able to generate multiple forms of radiation. He has used his radiation abilities to supercharge his fists to enhance his punches, for a stronger blow.
	+ **Energy Absorption**: Theo learned he possesses the ability to absorb all forms of energy from around him, which causes his eyes to glow blue when in use. This has been demonstrated on numerous occasions, such as when he finally learned to absorb lightning around him during a thunderstorm in order to empower himself. He describes this feeling when absorbing energy as a "rush", or a "feeling goosebumps and chills around his body, a thousand times over". His energy absorption abilities seem to be work unintentionally, as he constantly drew power from energy sources in Golden River Academy, such as lights, just from being underneath them, computers by being within a few inches away from them and even from cell phones, while holding his hands out close to them. When he was hoisted in the air by his mother and let him go, he absorb the energy of the impact of his drop.
		- **Life-Force Absorption**: Theo demonstrated that he is able to absorb a person's life-force, draining said person of their energy, killing said person, as he showed he did with one of the Watchdogs.
	+ **Intangibility**: During the Battle of Anthony & Taylor's Wedding, Theo managed phase through multiple gunshots inflicted on him by the Watchdogs, when the latter tried to kill Caleb and Carter Ortiz, which caused his eyes glow a golden yellow color.
* **Healing**: Theo is able to manipulate the ions in his own body to heal and cure living creatures, this extends from simple to fatal injuries and diseases. He discovered this power once Chase was stabbed in the shoulder with a pipe and was bleeding out as Theo put his hands over the wound, his palms began to glow with a bright golden light and then eventually healed Chase completely. However, this power has it's limits, because in doing so, he depletes his own energy or "light". He demonstrated this by first instantly healing Chase, although when he attempts to it with a large man, it negatively affects Theo, and he is made severely ill. He initially couldn’t control this power and could only do it in high pressure situations, until Cloak instructed him on it and he was able to heal consciously and on command.
* **Handprint Connection**: Theo is able to transfer energy between himself and another person, allowing him to heal the person, then as a remnant of his supernatural power, a bright rainbow handprint appears. This handprint is a physical representation of a psychic imprint. The connection allows him to be able to locate the recipient of his power and forges an emotional echo between them, which demonstrated when Chase was upset, Theo was able to feel his emotions from a distance and was able to locate and track Chase after he was under a lot of stress.
* **Mental Manipulation**: Theo is able to enter the minds of others and experience and control their thoughts. Similar to Cloak, yet much more powerful and concentrated, as he has demonstrated to be able to completely take over someone's mind when entering it and have complete control of them, such as making Jonah park his car miles away from the meeting spot of where Cloak wanted to meet him.
	+ **Memory Sharing**: Theo is able to share his own memories with whomever he chooses, allowing his memories to be seen by another.
	+ **Memory Viewing**: Theo was able to use this to scan through Cloak's memories, when he was persistent and determined in finding out what Cloak knew about him as a baby on Oasis, allowing him to see Cloak holding him as a baby.
* **Telekinesis**: Theo is able to move objects and people with his mind. He has shown considerable skill with this ability, allowing him to move objects with amazing skill and detail. He is able to levitate and manipulate living beings and inanimate objects with his mind.

### Abilities

* **Genius-Level Intellect/Master Tactician/Impeccable Leader**: Theo is highly intelligent, a recognized hallmark quality of the Carson family. Like his mother, Theo is a basically a certified genius of a number of multiple fields; he is even smarter than Violet, and has even stated by both others and himself, that he is smarter than other people around him in his life. He is even intelligent enough to be the youngest employee at Carson Enterprises, while also being the chief of innovative projects at the company, due to his superior intellect. Theo is even capable of creating new kinds of technology, such as his own artificial intelligence system, that is integrated into all of his technology, known as A.R.I.E.S., standing for "**A**rtificial **R**obotic **I**nteractive **E**ngineering **S**ystem", the name of which is derived from his Zodiac sign, the Aries, which the logo is also in the form of a golden Aries ram's horn. He was able to create a bracelet for Nevaeh that constantly generates small and contained sound waves, that allow her to focus her powers and amplify them if/and or when necessary. He was even able to create Oasian technologies to use his Oasian DNA to create an easily transferable genetic solution that allows dormant Oasian abilities to be activated and even an interstellar power detector, that allows him to see what Oasian's or Oasian-hybrid's abilities are. He's said to be an expert at deducing people and what they're hiding by reading between the lines of people and their words. As shown that when he spoke to Chase, he was able to finally discover that Chase had feelings for Nevaeh and that he held a grudge against Theo for Nevaeh's feeling for him and through his conversation with Chase was he able to finally put together Cloak's vague and veiled wordings to ultimately find out that he was telling him to confront his godfather about his true Oasian heritage.
	+ **Engineering Knowledge**: Theo's intellect gives him vast and extensive knowledge of advanced engineering, such as allowing him to understand the Oasis' highly-advanced weaponry. His knowledge is very incredible that he was only matched by his engineering skills.
* **Master Martial Artist/Hand-to-Hand Combatant**: Carson is an extremely skilled and formidable hand-to-hand combatant and martial artist, having trained extensively by his mother since childhood, and has even been declared one of the most powerful and best fighters in New York City. His fighting style is very acrobatic and heavily attack-oriented, primarily utilizing powerful sweeping kicks, aerial takedowns, and forceful attacks with hooked and clawed fists. His attacks are fluid and swift, allowing him to transition from attack to defensive strategies rapidly.
* **Master Acrobat**: Carson is an extremely skilled gymnast, acrobat and aerialist, being able to fluidly dodge attacks from multiple directions using coordinated flips and twists without losing his balance. This allowed him to quickly catch up to a soldier carrying his stolen family ring and cut him off mere seconds after being knocked down. Carson has proven to be extremely agile and can perform highly acrobatic feats in combat.

### Weaknesses

* **Emotional State**: Theo's abilities are psychically connected to his emotions, which make his abilities passive and activated even when he doesn't allow them to be, which means he must keep his emotions in check so that his powers can be stable.
* **Power Instability**: In most cases, Theo's powers seem unlimited. Although due to the exceptional nature of his powers, Theo's powers are unstable and is sometimes unable to control his powers as they activate due to a delayed inadvertent emotional reaction and disrupt electrical signals, making machines go haywire and can result in blackouts, as Theo completely blacked out New York as he was confused about his romantic feelings for Nevaeh.
	+ **Energy Drainage**: When using his powers too much or pushes them past his limits, he is drained of energy, which result in him becoming "burnt out" and needing to recharge naturally or absorb energy from nearby sources to gain his energy again.

## Equipment

* **Carson Family Ring**: The family ring worn by Carson is one of a set originally set to be worn by his great-great grandmother and her family, then later passed down to through his family and later to him, his mother and his siblings.
