Sometimes doing what’s needed to be done is ugly. I just know what I need to do.

☆Personality☆
General Personality: His personality and how he acts is split into two portions, when he is acting as Travis Masters and when he is acting as Alpha. This section will be used to describe both.
Travis Masters
As Travis Masters, he is perhaps what one would call the perfect boy, favorable in almost every way that one would find someone favorable. He is kind, courteous and over all a pleasant person to be around. If someone is in need of help, he will likely be the first to offer a helping hand, so long as it is within the realm of possibility for him to help. If he cannot, he will do the best he can with what he has, regardless of what the outcome of that will be. One could say he is the type to do anything in the name of good, even saving a kitten from a tree if that is within his capabilities. To put this perhaps boring snore fest to an end, he is what one would call too perfect, but then again people seem to eat up the good boy image.
Alpha
This is arguably what one could call his true persona, and far from the one that he tends to show as Travis. Different than the seemingly perfect Travis, Alpha is a manipulative son of a bitch for a lack of better terms. He sees everything in what they could do for him, and if the gain is worth the work that he would need to put into it. If something is not worth his time, then he will not likely waste much time on it, which can lead to a sort of fatal flaw really. If he does not consider something a threat, then Alpha will likely dismiss it, which can lead to his downfall in the end.
That aside, Alpha is a master manipulator and is willing to use anything to get what he wants, regardless of how reprehensible the tactic may seem. If he must kill thousands of people to get that thing, then he will do so without blinking, he might even enjoy it to some extent, though Alpha has never been much to enjoy waste. What is gained always holds more importance towards him. Still, he considers himself good with his goals of improving humanity in mind, and any who oppose him are the ones that are evil.

☆Power/Abilities☆
Powers and Abilities:
Gift of the mind: Another side effect of the strange experiments done to him is that Travis is superhumanly intelligent, capable of thinking hundreds of times faster than any human could. What has blossomed from this change is that he is capable of performing complex calculations that any human would be left confused within a matter of seconds, learning and memorizing languages within less than a day, figuring out strategies and even predicting a person’s movements and actions based upon minor clues normally ignored. Due to how quick his mind works, it even allows him to focus on the world around him and slow it down to analyze everything around him akin to a computer.
Telekinesis: Travis is capable of remotely controlling substances with only a thought, allowing him to for example throw a large car with a casual motion, flip buses and it is believed even knock over buildings when the effort is put into it. He has shown to be able to form barriers of psionic energy around him to protect him from attacks as well. Along with this, he is capable of creating mental blasts, usually facilitated with a motion of his hand, though that is not required. Overall the limitations of his telekinesis and how dangerous it is all depend on the user's creativity, and he is very creative. Alpha is also capable of using this power to move through levitation.
Telekinetically enhanced durability: Using his telekinetic power, he can create a sheath of telekinetic energy around him that acts similar to enhanced durability. This allows him to take mundane types of damage without a scratch and even some superhuman damage.
Area Sense: Releasing a telekinetic pulse into the area around him, he can make a mental map of the area around him in a fashion akin to echolocation. Allowing Alpha to take inventory of the things around him.
Telepathy: Alpha's mind is capable of extending outwards, tapping into the minds of those around him. Through this, he can project his thoughts into a persons mind or even receive their thoughts into his own, allowing for a form of mental communication. Either through worming his way through mental defenses, or being allowed to, Alpha is capable of digging through their memories, as well as projecting his own into their mind.
Mind Control: Alpha's mind is capable of extending outwards, tapping into the minds of those around him. Through this, he can control people with merely a thought and bend them to his will, though the stronger the will of a person, the more effort he has to put into controlling them.[player permission]
Illusions: Alpha's mind is capable of projecting illusions into someone's mind. This can range from simply making himself look different to creating an illusory flame that is simply not there, though if a person believes it, they are likely to feel the heat from the flames if nothing else. These images can fool the sense of smell, sight, hearing, taste and [with permission] touch. He is able to make more palpable images in the real world but it only affects the sense of sight.
The perfect body: Due to the research placed into his body, Travis has shown feats easily capable of matching an Olympic athlete as far as physical prowess is concerned. His muscles produce far less fatigue toxins, and allow him to perform a peak human levels without tiring out as quick, as well as lifting more than 3 times his body weight, as well as placing more force behind his fists. Not only that, but Travis is capable of reaching sprinting speeds of around 30 mph for short periods, and can strike with a frightening quickness. Along with this, his reflexes reach the pinnacle of mankind. Finally, his body is monumentally efficient, the aging rate has slowed to the point that one considers him biologically immortal. His body processing food, water efficiently. He is capable of going on with around eight hours of sleep a week. His genetics are also considered nearly perfect bearing almost no defects, and the few that exist are minor enough to not warrant any concern
Healing factor: His body works efficiently in multiple aspects. One of these is that its repair mechanisms are far greater than human, allowing him to heal injuries that would take days in ten hours and injuries that would take weeks in days and months in weeks. This marginally increases when he keeps still and allows his body to fully devote itself to healing. A secondary application is resistance to poison and various other maladies.
Weaknesses:
Sensory overload: Sensations that overload the sight or hearing portions of his senses tend to mess with and even discombobulate his abilities. This typically takes the form of his powers wavering or even stopping entirely. Good examples of this include sonic weaponry and rapidly flashing lights.
Rough outline: His area sense can only see vague images, meaning that he has a hard time differentiating enemies between allies when he isn’t looking directly at the sources.
Limited attention: When accessing his telekinesis, Alpha’s control over his other abilities is limited. His telepathy is limited to mental communication, illusions simple visual tricks and mind control unable to activate at all.
Give and take: His durability via telekinesis is limited by the fact that when activating it he has to choose between offense and defense.
Truly Arrogant: The thing is Alpha finds himself above the mundane worries of man and anyone weaker than him are no threats at all. If he perceives someone as lesser than him, then he will tend to ignore them or put less resources towards them than needed.
Magic: Esoteric or magical energies when they collide with his body tend to have the odd effect of messing with the control of his psionic abilities.
Aerosol: His telekinetic abilities have a more difficult time altering and affecting gaseous substances, leading to his manipulation of them being haphazard at best.
Skills and Talents: Polymath
Equipment:
The Mask: A black mask with a built-in voice filter.
☆History☆
Current residence: Toronto, Canada
Birthplace: The Garden
Memorable Figures: The “mother” who raised him in The Garden
General History:
From a young age he was raised within the pristine white walls of The Garden, an underground secret facility that was used to create the perfect humans. Beings that could survive in situations that normal humans could not, and he was the first of them to survive beyond the birthing process without immediate issues. These including rapid, tumorous cell growth and seemingly spontaneous hemorrhaging in their brains. Being the first successful test subject he was given the moniker of Alpha. From a young age, he showed aptitude in learning and could speak in thoughtful, complete sentences by the time he was age two. These massive leaps and bounds were things that both impressed and terrified those that were above him, even still they took their notes.
From then on he was tasked with learning everything that he could within this world. Languages, mathematics, philosophy, and even theoretical physics. Everything necessary to get ahead in life, even business practices that would be expected for the company that he was being groomed to one day take over. Even at the age of five his mind was more than capable of processing and taking in information, doing whatever the vast creative intellect could do and even imagine. His interests ended up being more complex things like music, art and even writing. Creativity was a thing that blossomed within his mind despite the structure that had been hammered into him. That was a spark that wasn’t so easy to undo, and in the end, it wasn’t even something they wanted to undo.
Adolescence became a somewhat awkward time for Alpha, as his body reacted like any human that entered this awkward time of life. He had been showing signs of physical and sexual development, which made the desire to help their project cope with the changes in top priority. However, a benefit of these changes was the fact that his exceptional capabilities beyond the superhuman intellect. Allowing him to extend his mental grasp beyond concepts to the physical world, and even the minds of those around him. Telekinesis, telepathy and various other abilities that would make him seem to be the ultimate psychic by many metrics. A steadily developing process that showed his potential for growth is nearly endless.
By the time of physical development he had grown to the point that he seemed to understand how to deal with and understand other people. They were odd creatures, lesser than him but he understood that they were likely necessary to manipulate if he wanted to improve his own station in the world. The man that called himself his father seemed to suggest that he was simply not in a place to undo all that mankind had done before improving it. This meant being groomed even further, a young man that the public should grow to love. Taking part in any charity he could, and going through even special interviews to get to understand the face behind Masters Pharmaceuticals. A rise to relative stardom came, Travis making himself somewhat of a celebrity through his acting skills but that gave him the greatest of cover. Hiding in plain sight. All he knew was that he planned to live up to the metrics set before him.
