Character Name: Phenix Alren
Character Source: OC
Starting Location: Erde Nona
Character Behavior:
Phenix is a placid strategist. A naturally inquisitive and curious person he is always striving to find and discover new things. These traits led Phenix to be a research and development specialist in the NASF, a job which calls for nerves of steel and the ability to stay calm and level headed no matter the situation. Even with a job in R&D he's no stranger to life threatening situations and isn't prone to losing his ability to reason.
In combat Phenix places skill and strategy above most all else. His complex powers require him to pick and choose what abilities he wants to utilize at any given time and his bots require strategic placement to be efficient in combat. He's not one to charge into a situation blindly or stay in a fight when he's over his head.
Physical Description:
Character History:
Phenix was born on a planet named Aurora, a cold icy planet where technology is advanced and space is a not so new frontier. From a young age he strived for knowledge and the ability to create whatever he pleased. Finding that the most successful way to do that was with a government budget, he joined the Neo Aurora Space Fleet. NASF was one of many government run space fleets hailing from that small sector of the galaxy. As part of a small special operations crew he was taken many places to interact with and observe many other planets and the varied civilizations that called them home. All the while he was able to do what he loved most, learn and build new things. In time his position even granted him access to a new type of experimental energy manipulation technology called PEPA. All of these events would prove to be life changing to him in their own right. Though it wouldn't be until the crew was dispatched to investigate a strange new space anomaly that his life would truly be changed forever.
The crew would take their ship to the anomaly and approach it. By all calculations that had been sure to stay at a safe distance from it. However calculations can only do so much when dealing with unidentified space phenomena. Just as the ship was preparing to send out investigation probes, the power went out across the entire ship. As if that wasn't a dangerous enough situation in and of itself, the entire ship shook as if it had just been hit by some large object. Then, as quick as the problems started they stopped. The shaking died down until it could no longer be felt and the power came back all at once. To Phenix's memory what happened next was that the ship was engulfed in a bright white light. He theorizes at that point everyone must have lost consciousness, because the next thing that he remembers after that is waking up on a strange planet. One which matched no known descriptions of planets in the sector in which the crew's ship was dispatched. Not only this but around him were no signs of a crashed ship or of his crew and their ship at all. Just like that he was all alone on a strange planet. His only company being his own thoughts and the limited intelligence AI which resided in them.

Abilities/Skills:
Name Personal Energy Production AI (PEPA)
Communication - Rank 1 (100)
-- Concentration (-50); Ongoing (Specialized)
100 Senses (extrasensory) - Rank 1 (100)
-- Concentration (-50); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 100
Description - The Personal Energy Production AI, affectionately called Pepa by Phenix, is an internal system of cybernetic technology integrated into Phenix's nervous system. It facilitates the conversion of electrical impulses from his nervous system into a special type of energy known as solid energy. This effectively allows him to produce energy with little more than a thought. The artificial intelligence within the system also assists Phenix in manipulating this energy for various things (his other abilities). The system itself is also capable of acting as a communication device between other mechanical, and strangely even magical, communication devices. Though doing so requires Phenix to concentrate on the messages he wants to send in order to send them. Lastly the AI can also emit a near undetectable pulse of energy into the area Phenix and use the energy to gather information about the surrounding area. However, this also requires concentration on Phenix's part.
Raw Energy Stream
Damage - Rank 2 (200)
-- Ranged (100); Side Effect (-100); Concentration (-100); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 100
Description - One of the simplest uses of Phenix's PEPA system is to discharge an arc of unrefined energy at a target. This takes the form of what appears to be a blue arc of lightning which shocks a target on contact. The energy can be discharged from a distance and is also capable of being maintained over a period of time to continuously damage a successfully hit target. However, in order to maintain the attack, Phenix must keep his arm held out towards the target. This effectively makes his arm unusable for any other tasks (including other abilities) unless he stops maintaining the attack. Also due to the unrefined nature of the energy Phenix is discharging he must consciously think about discharging it meaning he must concentrate on this attack while he uses it.
Solid Energy Wall
Protection - Rank 2 (200)
-- Side Effect (-100); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 100
Description - Another simple use of the PEPA system is to discharge electricity into the air directly in front of one Phenix's hands. The electricity quickly arranges itself into the shape of a translucent blue rectangular wall just large enough for Phenix to take cover behind and solidifies. This creates a quick defensive structure capable of taking an some damage before breaking. Similar to his Raw Energy Stream attack Phenix must keep one of his arms placed on the wall after its creation to maintain it. As before this renders the used arm useless for any other tasks unless he stops maintaining the wall, in which case it immediately disperses.
Lift Field
Move Object - Rank 1 (100)
-- Side Effect (-50); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 50
Description - Using his PEPA system Phenix is capable of touching an object and emitting a field of solid energy around it. This field surrounds the object and aids in moving it allowing Phenix to move objects he might not normally be capable of moving. As with his other PEPA abilities moving the object require Phenix to keep his hand placed on the object making that hand useless for any other tasks unless he stops maintaining the field.
Inhibitor Beam
Debuff - Rank 2 (200)
-- Ranged (100); Side Effect (-100); Weakness (50); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 150
Description - Using his PEPA system Phenix is capable of emitting a field at range similar in nature to that of his lift field. However, where the lift field helps move things, the field produced by his inhibitor beam surrounds an object and makes it harder for the object to move. It does so by encapsulating the object in solid energy and applying force equally on all sides. A living target could remark it as being similar to moving through a viscous liquid. When used on moving targets it therefore slows down their movement speed. As with his other PEPA abilities Phenix must keep his used arm aimed at the target of his beam in order to maintain it. As per usual this makes that arm useless for any other tasks unless he stops maintaining the beam. However, the biggest weakness of this ability is the fact that it can only be used on targets roughly the size of an average human or smaller.
Solid Energy Suit
Adaptation (Incredible Heat Environments)- Rank 1 (100)
-- Activation (-50)
Adaptation (Incredible Cold Environments)- Rank 1 (100)
-- Activation (-50)
Protection- Rank 4 (400)
-- Activation (-200); Ongoing (Specialized)
Concealment (Sight)- Rank 5 (500)
-- Activation (-250); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 550
Description - The Solid Energy Suit is a more advanced application of the PEPA system. It is an armored suit Phenix can make around himself to effectively wear it whenever he needs to. The suit takes ten seconds to fully form around his body before which it will have no effects. After being formed the suit regulates Phenix's body temperature and shields him from the outside temperature of his environment. Also by nature of being made of reinforced solid energy the suit is capable of taking and defending from attacks of a decent caliber. Though like any other armor it breaks with continued attacks. Most curiously, even to Phenix, when worn the suit is capable of imparting a cloaked effect on Phenix making him significantly harder to see. It is theorized that the cloaking effect comes from the unique nature of solid energy and the particular configuration it is put into to form the suit. Due to the suit's constant contact with Phenix's body no special actions are required to maintain its existence.
Med Nanobots
Healing- Rank 2 (400)
-- Weakness (-50); Activation (-200); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 150
Description - One of the most complex uses of the PEPA system is the creation of nanobots inside Phenix's own body. These nanobots are capable of performing medical operations on him and healing a great number of wounds on his body over time. However, the nanobots take a significant amount of time to be produced and subsequently activated (one minute) making them unsuitable for use in most combat situations. There are made even less effective by the fact that they cannot heal wounds which still contain an object (such as a blade left in the wound or a bullet stuck inside the body). However, once the nanobots do activate they will continue healing Phenix until all wounds, that they can heal, are healed. Similar to his suit, the nanobots do not require any special actions to maintain because of their presence inside of his body.
Gun Bot
Damage- Rank 3 (300)
-- Ranged (150); Side Effect (-150); Removeable (-150); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 150
Description - One of the various "bots" produced by Phenix utilizing his PEPA system. It lacks an AI and the ability to do anything on its own for the most part only being called a bot due to its appearance. The spherical bot floats in place, and about the size of a basketball. It is created using solid energy and has a slight translucence to it. Upon being created the bot's mouth will open and begin firing solid energy bullets towards a target from a machine gun-like barrel inside of its mouth. Phenix can maintain the bot similar to many of his other abilities making keep firing a constant onslaught of bullets for the duration of its maintenance. As long as Phenix is maintaining the bot he is capable of mental controlling it. Though he is only able to make it rotate in place to change the direction in which it fires. The bot is entirely incapable of moving in any way other than rotating in place and can only target things in Phenix's line of sight. Similar to his other abilities in order to maintain the gun bot's existence, Phenix must have his arm outstretched towards wherever the bot is and must also stay within five feet of it. This not only makes his used arm unable to perform any other actions but also limits the places where he can move unless he stops maintaining the bot. Lastly the bot is rather easy to remove as it isn't built for durability and attacking it will cause it to harmlessly burst into energy.
Lightning Bot
Damage- Rank 2 (200)
-- Affects Multiple (100); Ranged (100); Indiscriminate (-100); Side Effect (-100); Removeable (-100); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 100
Description - Another bot capable of being created by the PEPA system which shares many similarities with the gun bot. It has the same appearance, and general capabilities as the gun bot. The only difference between them being its mode of attack. When created the bot will open its mouth and release several arcs of energy like that of the Raw Energy Stream ability to continuously bombard a target area. All targets in the area, friend or foe, will be bombarded by a continuous stream of attacks for as long as Phenix maintains the bot. Similar to his other bot, Phenix must have his arm outstretched towards wherever the bot is and must also stay within five feet of it in order to maintain its existence. This not only makes his used arm unable to perform any other actions but also limits the places where he can move unless he stops maintaining the bot. Lastly also like the gun bot the lightning bot is rather easy to remove as it isn't built for durability and attacking it will cause it to harmlessly burst into energy. Unlike the gun bot this bot can not be made to change where it fires and will continuously fire on the same location.
Laser Bot
Damage - Rank 5 (500)
-- Ranged (250); Side Effect (-250); Removeable (-250); Ongoing (Specialized)
Total Cost: 250
Description - Another bot capable of being created by the PEPA system which shares many similarities with the other two bots. It has the same appearance, and general capabilities as the others. The only difference between them being its mode of attack. When created the bot will open its mouth and charge for two seconds before shooting a laser made of concentrated energy towards a target. The bot will launch the beam continuously at the same spot as long as it is maintained. Similar to his other bot, Phenix must have his arm outstretched towards wherever the bot is and must also stay within five feet of it in order to maintain its existence. This not only makes his used arm unable to perform any other actions but also limits the places where he can move unless he stops maintaining the bot. Lastly also like the others the laser bot is rather easy to remove as it isn't built for durability and attacking it will cause it to harmlessly burst into energy. Similar also to the lightning bot, the laser bot can not be made to change where it fires its beam and will continuously fire at the same location.

Space Fleet Certified Fitness
Endurance- Rank 1 (100)
Total Cost: 100
Description - In order to be a part of the Neo Aurora Space Fleet one must pass certainly physical exams and maintain a certain level of physical fitness. While this bar is lower for less field oriented members such as Phenix, it still exists. Thus he is considered to be quite a bit more fit than your average person would be.

Research/Development (Technology)- Rank 4 (200)
Description - Phenix was the head of research and development for the Special Operations Squad he was a part of. This means he has good knowledge of how to create and understand various types of technology such as utility gear and weapons. Though he lacks specialized knowledge in any one type of technology so his process is often imperfect.
