Fledgling Scribbler

Okay, I lied. I’m making two characters. One will be a “good guy” and the other one will have the role of villain. Both will have the power to teleport.

Adrien: A recent college graduate in his early 20’s, he discovers the power to teleport when he is shoved by someone unknown off the top of a building. Until that point, he was unaware of his power. His first experience is devastating however, when he accidentally teleports himself into the middle of a crowd. The 3 minutes between his disintegration and reintegration seems like an instant to him and when he regains his faculties, he finds himself amid chaos as people are either running away or screaming in pain on the floor from various injuries. It takes him some time to figure out what is going on and to gain control of this power, but the traumatizing first experience inhibits him from using this power too much. Or at all, if he can help it.

Thomas: He discovers this power from a very young age. Having also had a traumatizing first experience, Thomas is at first hesitant to use his powers. However, it was his bad luck in life to grow up in an abusive household. One day, he can no longer take the pain and he deliberately teleports himself around in the vicinity of his parents, doing it several times until he is sure that his parents are dead. After the initial rage, he is extremely remorseful, but he also likes the feeling of power that teleportation gives him and he eventually gets used to doing it more and more. At one point, his sole method of travel is teleportation, though he often stays away from populated areas due to his distrust of mankind, so the number of accidents he is involved with is infrequent, though it happens. The amount of remorse he feels lessens each time as he fills himself with this addicting feeling of power. However, a mysterious organization appears to be sending agents after him when he causes more and more accidents, even being caught and almost killed at one point. This deepens his distrust of mankind, but also makes him more cautious with using his powers.

Later, I will create character diamonds for these two.
