PB: Henry Cavill
CODENAME: Harbinger
TEAM: Echo
ROLE: Wildcard
POWERS:
Metallic Form : His number one power and the reason why people think of him as a 'tank' on most situations, he is able to transform all of his soft tissue into a form of organic steel with a similar density to tungsten. Naturally, in this form he is incredibly strong (he has been known to lift 20 tons without visible strain) and almost invulnerable to damage (most common metals shatter or flatten against him with viable force). In this state his muscles also don't produce fatigue toxins, so he is able to perform arduous or taxing feats with inhuman stamina as well. Also he can jump, like, insanely high. He has definitely full-court dunked as a party trick before. The longest he has been able to hold this form is three hours before it taxes his body too much and he reverts back to his baseline state, usually with a serious case of exhaustion and/or migraines. This is also an all-or-nothing power, meaning he must fully convert his body and it denies access to his other power.
Shapeshifting : It manifested months after his first ability, but is something that he can use at will when in his baseline state. He is able to completely alter himself to appear as anyone he has ever seen before, which is not an altogether comfortable feeling and is not instantaneous (it takes between a minute and three). His weight remains the same and his height can only be altered so much (no more than four inches), but for all intents and purposes he become a wholly different person in appearance when he uses this power. The longest he has been able to hold a new 'shape' was two hours and then he naturally reverts back an is usually pretty nauseous afterwards. If he is in a shifted form and needs to use his metallic form, he rapidly shifts back to his normal state and takes off an hour (minimum) of how long he can be in his metal skin. Exhausting himself in either power means he doesn't have access to the other.
Details: Winston "Sonny" McKenna is was a world-class photographer with the world on a string, in his mid-twenties with his dream job and a girl who had no business being with him. When his powers manifested, he went on the run (hard to stop a guy who can break a tank) and was successfully rogue for a year. When authorities finally caught him, things got bad and his actions caused his woman (who had went off-the-grid with him) to die. Offered death row or government service, he chose death row out of guilt and depression. Turns out he chose wrong or it was a rhetorical question. Never got a chance to ask. He's been with the program for a few years now and is one of their favorite stories to use about how it 'can turn a bad case around'.
So, I'd love lines for this handsome fella who has a redemption complex and a genuinely good moral compass. He can be dark and moody sometimes, but he generally tries to do the right thing. A mentor who helped him assimilate, training partners, maybe an ex who is on cordial terms. I'm thinking he's been in the Corps for a little over half a decade now, so there's room for new and established ties.
