Alfred F. Jones- America

[Alfred F. Jones]

APPLICATION



::Basic Information::

Name: Alfred F. Jones
Age: 17
Birthday: July 4

Appearance:

Alfred is a fairly tall man with short blond hair and blue eyes. His hair is generally a bit messy, especially a certain strand that stands out like a cow lick (and doesn’t stay down). He has to wear glasses in order to see at a distance, and so he always has them on. He is a bit tan due to the summer season (and his arms are a tad darker than the rest of his body due to lack of sunscreen). He is strongly built with broad shoulders, however he can never manage to get any serious abs (as he always has a little bit of a stomach. It isn’t really noticeable, but he is incredibly sensitive about it and so thinks it’s more of a deal than it really is).

Strengths

[+] Athletics- If you’re going to play sports you want Alfred on your team. He loves any kind of game and if you aren’t too competitive then he can be rather nice to play with (though if you’re competitive then he can turn into a sore winner/loser).
[+] Comedy- Alfred really likes to make people laugh.
[+] Justice- Alfred is a firm believer in standing up for what is right. After all, he does want to be a hero.

Weaknesses

[-] Attention- Alfred needs attention. And lots of it.
[-] Intelligence- He isn’t the sharpest knife in the crayon box. If you catch my drift.
[-] Stubbornness- To the point that he will act like a child. He will whine and carry on if he doesn’t get his way. If you don’t put up with his crap though then he will get over it (just give him a smack over the head).

::Special::

For Mutants

Power: Electricity/ abnormal strength
Brief Description of Abilities:

Alfred is able to manipulate electricity and, when under pressure, able to create his own bolts of lightning. With this power he can short circuit all sorts of things (such as security systems) and he can plug his iPod charger into his mouth. When he is upset and outside he can manipulate the electrostatic charge of his area and thus create a lightning storm (though he can’t control where it goes).
Alfred has yet to learn how to control his powers, though he has learned his emotions are closely linked to the kind of charge he gives off. He has found that when he is angry he can create bolts of electricity, and if he is embarrassed or shy then he gives off a charge that causes random metal objects to stick to his body. He also doesn’t go swimming with other people (in case he electrocutes them in the water).
His power also causes him to get hit by lightning. A LOT (which may explain a few things).

Alfred is also rather strong for a person of his age, however this can’t be fully categorized as a superpower because he is far from the strongest person there is. If anything he is just a tad abnormally strong (since he can, if he puts his mind to it, pull a car. He can’t pick it up however). When in high school he showed this off, however now he tends to not talk about it (since again, it isn’t a superpower and anyone who DOES have super strength easily has creamed him on more than one occasion).
Enrolled at The Academy?: Yes

::Advanced::

Personality:

Alfred is a generally happy go lucky kind of guy (with not a lot ‘going on in the attic’). He likes being around other people and especially enjoys being the center of attention (though, he won’t steal attention from someone else). He is easy to make friends with, and once he knows you he will generally invite you to all sorts of things (playing video games, going clubbing, breaking into the girls shower room, football games, etc). Alfred is also in love with sports, so if you play any (or watch any) then he will automatically put you in his good books.

Alfred is like a child in some ways in that he is rather trusting of people. He can’t really ‘read’ other people and so can’t quite grasp if they have ulterior motives. He also can’t read a situation (so good luck trying to subtly tell him something).
He is also like a cat in a way that he is easily distracted.

He also eats. A lot. So if you find him in the kitchen stealing bananas at 2AM don't be too suprised.

History:

Alfred was born in New York and had a brother, though he never got to see him since their parents got a divorce. His mother took his brother up to Canada, and Alfred stayed with his father. He was able to see his brother twice a year, and overall likes him.
When he was 7 his father moved the two of them down to Texas. There Alfred learned to be afraid of wildlife, get a farmers tan, and wear a cowboy hat properly. He quickly made friends and adjusted well to his new town.

At a young age Alfred knew he was a tad different. The boy would always get hit by lightning during a lightning storm and any technology he touched tended to fry. His father wasn’t too bothered by it however, since he secretly had super strength.
Alfred only began noticing his powers when he began to play with his new friends. At one point they were playing Dragon Ball Z when Alfred attempted to do a ‘Kamehameha’ and was able to create small bolts of electricity around his body. The other boys and himself thought this was cool (and normal) and continued playing.

Alfred adjusted well to high school and joined as many sports as he could, however he never took to swimming. In his garage at night he would try to control his powers, however he was too ill informed and instead had to suffer with random bouts of electrical pulses (and staplers randomly hitting his face when he got embarrassed in class). Of course people found this odd, but it was always blamed on something else (or him being a derp).

Then one night, Alfred was dropping his friend off at the pool when some other guys came in. An argument started over who had booked it prior and Alfred lost his temper. Due to the puddles on the ground, he was able to unintentially send a bolt of electricity to the people around him. The other boys remained unharmed due to their rubber shoes. His friend however had already changed and thus was bare footed (and was killed).

The incident was blamed on poor electrical wiring, however Alfred knew the truth. He stopped attending classes and instead began looking into somewhere he could learn to control his powers. His father then found the private school that could help him.

He has been there for one year, and has been learning to control himself.

Sample RP:

It was hot.
Like, like really freakin hot.

And the A/C was out more like Alfred tried to fix it and thus blew it up and was now waiting for someone to come fix it.

And on top of all this Alfred could swear he heard some kind of bird in the background (like a parakeet or, something stupid).

And so Alfred sat in his boxers, staring lazily at the screen as he shot more stupid zombies in their stupid zombie faces. He munched on some cookies as he did so, wanting to grab a cupcake he randomly found, however not wanting to give up the roll he was on.

He shot to the left before whipping around and shooting another zombie in the face.
“Yah, in the face.”
And then a zombie attacked him and took him down. And he was all like ‘AW HELL NAW’ but then it bit his face and, you know what? You can’t argue when your face is torn off.

GAME OVER.

Alfred rage quit and grabbed his computer charger, yelling in anger and charging it at the same time.
At least he was good for one thing.
