Metallic

## **Appearance**:

Metallic is a bit shorter than average height (about 5'6"), almost nothing but skin and bones. His pale skin is covered in many scars all over his body. His silvery-white hair is un-kept and about shoulder-length, both long and short bangs falling over his eyes, more so on the right (left facing him) than left. His eyes are silver and usually having a fearful look to them. His clothing are usually tattered that have patches or resewn areas; a black, tight long-sleeved turtle-neck shirt is under a three-quarters sleeve tan-brown shirt, the black completely tucked into his dark brown trousers while the front of the tan shirt is tucked in. His trousers are also tucked into muddy, worn out black boots. He has a dark navy blue sash that is wrapped around his waist and wears a gray-black knee-length cloak with a hood over his shoulders, clasped with a small piece of rope.

On both his wrists are silver bands that almost seems to be fused into his skin, which is the same for the right side (left facing him) of his face that is covered with silver. So over his face he wears a full white mask that slightly dirty and has gray markings, and it covers the entirety of his face, with holes just for his eyes. He's pretty much got every part of his skin covered.

## **Personality**:

Fear, pain, and cruelty is all he's ever known in his entire life. (Bit of a stretch but majority of his life.) Because of the trials and tribulations he's been through, he learned he cannot trust *anyone*. He's especially afraid of anything that is made of or with metal. Because of that fear, he is always alone and isolated, though he actually prefers this way. He thinks of himself as a nuisance and danger to others, so not very confident of himself really. However, many times he wished he was cursed and can be normal again, wanting to have the life he had before back. Being a hermit, and one afraid of others, he doesn't know how to act around them,not knowing if he's being rude, nosy, or saying things he shouldn't. But, whenever he's out and about, he observes how other humans interact with one another and tries to work at it himself. Despite his fears and worries, he has a gentle and pure heart, kind and caring to those he trusts once he deems they are trustworthy.

## **Powers/Abilities**:

He has been cursed to be a human magnet to any type of metal--whether it be foreign or not--whenever his skin is exposed. If he is within eight to ten yards from a metal object and say a finger or even a rip in his clothes showing his skin, will attract the metal towards him at a high speed. The curse also prevents him from dying by stabbing or injured by anything made of metal and by bleeding. When he's injured, instead of blood, he bleeds out precious metal and is able to heal fairly quickly, which results why he cannot die by bleeding to death. He also can only survive by consuming metal, whether solid or liquid. The only upside-ish part of this curse is that he can manipulate metal though he tends to not want to use it since his magnetic force of his body is stronger than his will to stop the metal from coming towards him.

Perhaps WiP for elaboration.

## **Backstory**:

*May* be written out but Metallic was born a regular human with a different name when a mysterious being cursed him after a prophecy foretold of the greatness that would come because of Metallic, which would make him great. He is stuck with the curse for the rest of his life, having lost *everything* he knew because of it.
