Personality-
Micah always tried to fit in and be as normal as everyone else way back before he knew about his "gift". Micah was always the laid back teen that enjoyed being with his friends on listening to his music if he wasn't on his computer talking to about five people at once. He also loved his phone and watched his horror movies. Micah has the rep for being one of the sweetest guys at school. He gets along with everyone he comes in contact with but if anybody tried to pick on one of his friends he will be feared. Micah absolutely hated when people are picking on or bullying on other people. It just made him angry and he wouldn't stand for it. Otherwise he's nice to everyone. He always has the habit of putting others before himself. He tends to care to much for others and always tries to see the good in people and giving people second chances. He would put himself in harms way to keep innocent people safe, he's just that kind of guy.
When everyone sees Micah around in public, they see a happy go lucky guy. He's always socializing with other kids his own age and is somehow laughing half the time. Laughing is one of Micah's favorite things to do, he's also incredibly modest. He doesn't see himself as funny, or good looking, not even that nice, But he truly is. At least, that's what everyone says about him, just not behind his back because he doesn't deserve that. At home he's always taking care of his little cousin, or helping around the house. Doing his homework when he can while listening to his ipod and staying up late talking on the phone. Micah is also an insomniac. He just can't seem to fall asleep before midnight but he hardly seems tiered the next day. He also hates waking up in the morning but does anyways.
Micah doesn't like labels. He doesn't normally care what others think of him because mostly it's not anything bad anyways. He swings both ways but nobody cares or gives him a hard time about it. He isn't one of the "populars" to be exact, but he is in his own way. He plays soccer and is in the Drama at school and that's where he's popular, but everyone seems to want to be his friend anyways. For those who are interested Micah always gives them a chance and when he likes somebody does what he can to be close to them. Micah can be incredibly romantic and sweeter than usual, if that's possible.
Paranoia is something Micah has come to learn is a big quality of his that is always somehow lingering in his mind. Because he is always over thinking everything, when it comes to his paranoia, the two things come together and Micah gets these thoughts that in the end only worry him. If somebody isn’t home when they’re supposed to be, of course Micah starts to think that something bad happened to them and they could have gotten kidnapped or in some accident. His mind is always racing ahead of him. Micah is also very curious, he can’t help but investigate the wonders around him, and he likes to know what’s going on when it comes to people he cares about or the friends he often hangs out with. He utterly hates being lied to as well, he loses some respect for anyone that lies to him.
Abilities/Powers/Skills-
Phasing- Micah has the primary ability of phasing. This ability allows him to pass through solid matter by passing her atoms through the spaces between the atoms of the object through which he was moving. In this way he and the object through which he was passing could temporarily merge without interacting, and each was unharmed when Micah had finished passing through the object. When Micah was phasing, he was, for all intents and purposes, intangible. Hence, when attacked, he could shift into a "phasing" state (even if she was not at the time passing through an object) so as to allow oncoming projectiles or energy blasts to pass through her harmlessly. Also, when phasing, his mind can be block any telepathic powers.
Hovering- Micah also has the ability to "hover" which is basically Micah using his phasing power to "walk on air" as if he was walking through molecules of the air instead of solid molecules. This allows Micah to hover anywhere in any direction, almost like flight but at regular speed.
Limits-
Phasing- The only flaw with Micah's powers is that when he's phasing he can't breathe, so he can only be phasing through a solid object as long as he can hold his breath while doing. Such if he was phasing underground. Also, if he phases through anything electrical, it will short out and cease to work.
Hovering- The flaw to Micah's hovering is that he cannot enhance his speed, and can only go at the same rat he would be able to travel through solid substances. Also, he cannot go past the Ozone layer and he needs to focus on hovering like he would through solid objects or her could get stuck in midair or fall to the ground.
Appearance-
Micah is about five foot nine inches with short brunette hair that always seems to have a mind of its own. He doesn‘t style his hair any certain way, he just lets it go naturally. He also doesn‘t really like getting it cut until he starts being called a girl. He has a bright smile and dimples on his cheeks when he does smile. His eyes are bright blue and dreamy that sparkle in the sunlight. Is skin his lightly tanned, but mostly just pale. Anytime he gains a tan, he slowly looses it after. His nose is regular, but like his father, it’s a bit on the longer side but luckily on the skinnier side as well, so it all equals out for him.
Micah has his own style of cloths half the time. He always wears his blue jeans and Hawk shoes with the tongue sticking out over the bottom of the jeans. He also wears either t shirts with a striped sweatshirt or he wears an open collared shirt with the sleeves rolled up. Depends on his mood or weather. He loves stripes. He only doesn't wear stripes when it's really hot so then he wears a collared shirt. Sometimes he wears his cool fitted hat when he hangs out with friends. Micah always has his own looks and nobody would dare try to copy him.
Micah has a scar on his wrist. He did it to himself on his eighteenth birthday. With all the drama going on in his life and loved ones he was loosing, it all hit him on his eighteenth birthday so he took it out on himself just to see what it would feel like. After doing it, his boyfriend Ricky begged to let him heal it, but Micah wouldn’t let him. He wanted to keep the scar as a reminder to himself of how far he was willing to go to take his pain away.

History-
Micah Walker came from a very broken home. Growing up, he knew nothing about his real family’s past, not until later in his life, after he manifested his powers. His parents were very off and on before he was born and ended up having him accidentally. It wasn’t something they planned, but kept him regardless and tried to make things work, so they got married. But while Micah was still growing in the whom, they were already having problems and split up. After Micah was born, his mother couldn’t handle it. She lost his dad, started drinking and his grandparents took him in and he lived in Staten Island with them. Micah didn’t know this, but his father was very much special. And a villain in his youth. He used his powers to scam and trick and while Micah's mother was still pregnant with him, that’s when she found out about him and was always scared Micah would turn into his father.
But the truth was, Micah was nothing like his father.
He grew up well and always had a bright personality. He cared for people and loved to help those in need of it. He was a happy child who liked to play with old camera and swim even before he really learned how. He was told, when he was still very young, that his father died. They said it was a shooting. And that’s really what everyone thought, because in reality he was working with The Company at the time as a field agent, trying to make up for his villainous ways and was seemingly killed by a villain named Trevor Perry. Micah barely saw his father, but was still saddened by the news. But he still went on and didn’t let that effect his life.
After Micah finished his sophomore year of high school, on the last day coming home, that was the moment that changed his life forever. As he was not paying attention, crossing the street, a truck tipped over and went right for him. By the time Micah looked up it was already too late to move, but instead, he phased right through it. The whole thing freaked him out, and Micah ran all the way home. Right after that happened, a special named Conall came to his door, he ended up learning a lot of things for this guy including everything he would need to know about the company before he had to leave. Ever since then Micah made sure to try and be careful, he didn’t like the sound of the company, and defiantly didn’t want to be taken away by them or be experimented on.
Micah learned to control his powers, he didn’t use his powers to cheat or anything thing like that, especially when it came to soccer. His team went long and far. One day in Manhattan when he was supposed to be visiting is mother, he as cornered by a company agent that chased him down to bang and tag him. Ironically enough, the agent that took him in was also his best friend Sam’s Sister Ashley. Micah thought he was left for dead, but then he met Agatha, the agent that tagged him. That’s when he learned that the company wasn’t all that bad after all. Right after that, on the way home, they were attacked by these men in back. That’s when Micah had to use his powers to save Agatha from getting shot.
It was his first taste of hero, and Micah loved it. He loved to get himself involved to save somebody like that. After that Micah met his first love, Richard Hutchings. The older boy saved Micah from getting killed by getting shot. After that, they just hot it off. Before the night was over, Ricky for short, kissed Micah. It was his first kiss, and it was amazing. He was sent away right after that. It wasn’t until New Years that Micah saw Ricky again. Before seeing him again, Micah was kidnapped from school and brought to a lab where he was injected with a sickness. But his memory was erased, so Micah didn’t even remember it afterwards. After that he got pains from using his powers, he passed out randomly, and got constant nosebleeds.
The sickness got worse as time grew on, and apparently Rick had it as well. After being invited over his house for New Year’s dinner, which was also Ricky’s twentieth birthday, Micah also met Trent Scott, Micah’s future new best friend. Micah and Trent became fast friends, and Micah never had many close friends that he could really trust, but Trent quickly gained his trust and they became best friends. They hung out all the time, which Ricky didn’t really like. He never trusted Trent hanging around with Micah. Although Micah himself never understood why not.
One night, late at night, Micah went off tried to stop a huge fire that was roaring out of control. It was his one chance to be a hero. He left Ricky’s house and went to save the civilians in the horrible building fire. Ricky apparently followed him there and after everyone was saved, Ricky was caught in the chaos and he had to save him on his own. After saving Ricky he was in the hospital for quite a long time. Micah and a bunch of other specials that were infected with the sickness all came together and broke into the lap to get the cure. It was a bit crazy, but together they found the cure and finally took it, including Ricky.
On April fourth, the whole world broke into chaos. Every civilian on the planet got a special power for just over a three minutes. Micah was at work during the time and the aquarium was almost completely destroyed. Micah was in the middle of cleaning a fish tank at the time and it suddenly shattered, he barely got out of the way but he was all cut up, in fact, a shard pierced his neck. When he got to the hospital he died from losing so much blood. Luckily for him. Ricky was there and saw what was going on and used up all his strength to bring Micah back to life.
When he died, he saw his grandfather standing there in the light, which made no sense to him why his grandfather seemed to be fading away in all the light. His grandfather told him that it wasn’t Micah’s time to go, and it wasn’t his father’s either. That’s when Micah was resurrected in the hospital with Ricky. Later that day, he learned that his grandfather was dead after being mauled by the corpses that came back to life at the families Funeral Home. Ever since then, Micah was pretty sad, and Trent’s leaving didn’t help him either. He came to Micah and said he was leaving to move to Texas. He kissed Micah and he left.
He wasn’t sure what to do after that. Kissing Trent felt good, but he knew it was wrong. He took a while, but he finally told Ricky what happened. Ricky wouldn’t speak to him after that. It was just a few weeks before his eighteenth birthday too. On his actual birthday Micah cancelled his big birthday party and wanted to be alone. He ended up cutting himself and just after, Ricky never came and they ended up breaking up. He never really heard from him after that. Trent was gone too, moved away and was barely heard from. That’s when Oscar came around, and suddenly things seemed to be getting better.
After special were exposed on April 6th, things were never the same after that, the world was a different place. Civilians thought of specials as monsters, started mobs, one of witch Micah got involved with. A women named Zoey was being harassed, so Micah and a few others got involved. Micah led the mob with his powers and escaped himself, but he knew somebody was following him, and before he knew it the registration task force was after him for not registering. He didn’t believe in it, he shouldn’t have to register just to be special. When they finally showed up at his house, he fought them off and used his powers to get away. He left his new crush, Oscar, a note explaining that he had to disappear for a while but would be back soon.
Micah was in hiding, the registration task force was after him. After his run-in with Grace Harper, leader of the Company, he decided to run there. They helped him, though he stayed underground for a long time. He couldn’t stand being away from everyone, he missed his friends, family, and especially Oscar who he had to leave behind without properly saying good bye. But thanks to the Company, he got his return to his old life.
When his mother went to get married to her new boyfriend, a man named Stephen, Micah was happy for her. She had her life together again and was happy. But only to figure out that what was supposed to be happy ending, was really a fake. The man she was marrying was actually his father, very much not dead and pretending to be somebody else with his powers and it took everyone for a loop that day. There was real chaos, his mother and other relatives got hurt, but luckily Ashley Knight was there and ended up taking him down herself and took him in. His father, although Micah’s happy he’s alive, now he’s the Company’s problem. Because Micah can never forgive him for the things he’s done.
Since the fall of so many dangerous faction, Micah’s got his life back again, almost back to normal. But at least there’s no more running or hiding, just his job. He’s only got one more year of college left now, majoring in photography and minoring in marine biology. His work as a Watcher is what he really lives for now though, trying to help innocent people and keep villains away at all costs. Sometimes it’s like living a double life as two different people, but at the same time it’s really not, because that’s just who he was. College student by day, hero by night.
Anything else?- BG gave me permission to change some things around for him.
Sample RP-
Micah had been waiting a long time for his life to mean something. Ever since he found out he was special he just kept asking himself the same question. Why him? It made no sense, why a young guy at the age of seventeen would inherit powers to walk through walls and hover around like a ghost. But that was then. He’s nineteen now and finally it was all starting to make some sense to him. He was brought into this world to be a hero. At least that is what he had figured out.
Whenever there was somebody in danger or that needed help, Micah would put his life on the line for them and didn’t care of the consequences. Sure, it might not be the smartest thing to do, but that was just the type of hero he was. He loved to help people, it made him feel good and the rush was pretty amazing too. It didn’t take him very long to figure out why he got these powers in the first place, to help people. There were just as many bad people in the world as good, but the bad one’s were a little more dangerous. They used their powers for destruction and to cause death. Heroes could only do so much to stop them, and not all of them cam. There were groups, such as the Rogue Society, that were trying to take over. Micah knew of one and he was bad, but he was starting to see some humanity in him. But he also knew he wasn’t going to change.
That’s why he joined the Watchers.
A few months back Micah saved the head of the Watchers, Travis Payne. He already knew of the team since they were on television and was probably one of the biggest hero groups around and that are also known to the public. After saving him, they had a long talk that eventually leads to Travis asking Micah to join the group. He couldn’t believe the honor and gladly took it. He also helped Micah to help him recruit some new members so they could expand the team. He happily agreed and ended up recruiting a local college student Chris Braden and his own God Father, Ronan.
It’s been awhile since he had heard anything from Travis about what was going on, until a few days ago when he got an email stating to meet at the new Watcher’s base in Las Vegas. Micah knew since he was meeting them in Vegas that he was going to end up being based there for the team, and that made life really complicated.
Micah’s life was in Ney York. It’s where he was born and raised. His college was there, his family was there, his friends were there, and of course Shiloh was there. How could he just tell them he was leaving? It was hard, he was sure about that much, but it was also for the greater good. Luckily he wasn’t move their just yet, he just needed to be at the meeting. Ever since he recruited Chris, who also got the same email, he knew they were going to end up going together. He started getting to know Chris better and he could finally start calling him a friend. They were going to have to stick together if they were both being moved to Vegas. They both flew from New York over to Vegas and got a two bed hotel room for the night so they could go to the meeting and head back the next day.
Micah hurried Chris along to the Watcher’s base together and looked around; it was all pretty cool looking. They were just following behind some other guy Micah hadn’t recognized and moved around him after entering to see Gwen. “Long time no see, Gwen.” He said with a smirk, remembering her from when she almost shot him and when from seeing her on television. “I’m Micah.” He said walking up to her and offering her a hand.
