*DECEASED*
Full Name: Tiberius Cortez
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Powers: Mental Bolts are mentally-generated bolts of energy. This ability draws on one's own psionic energies as well as the psionic energy absorbed from others to launch a powerful barrage of psionic volleys. This power is unlike telekinetic-based attacks where as this skill affects it's victims with mental damage. This can range from slight headaches to unconsciousness. An experienced user of this skill can affect learn to affect multiple targets in a limited radius.
Power Limits: Tiberius has a large and powerful mind and exercises it regularly however, this power still requires a hell of a lot of concentration and also if used to much he can get a severe headache. To calm this backlash he seeks to meditate for a constant period each day.
Personality: Tiberius grew up with his powers and has learnt to control them by himself. It partly for this reason that he chooses not to pick a side though it could be said that he has a dislike for anything morally wrong and therefore this would make him a hero. Nevertheless he considers himself with no allegiance and therefore makes his life simple. However his personality is emotionally relatively calm and it is believed that he rarely gets angry except when protecting something that he loves.
Likes: He loves long walks down an empty street or simply just being by himself. He likes the outback and forest areas or getting back to nature as he calls it. He believes that everyone makes their own choices and likes getting his own way and is a fierce opponent if he doesn’t. He also likes the purity of nature and also the innocence of it. He believes that humanity has been scarred with the invention of technology and has decided that it is up to him to aid the heroes that seek to fight against the darkness. The moon is also his love as he believes that this is where he draws his power from.
Dislikes: He dislikes the rich and a class system that has a glorification of technology. He often sympathises with all humanitarian protesters about their love of nature. Also he is a fierce protector over those who are bullied and believes that no one should ever be bullied or pushed into anything that they do not wish to do. He also hates anything morally wrong and believes that everyone should stop themselves due to freewill before they even complete such an act.
Strengths: His main strength is his ability to negate all human emotion that he has and choose through his own freewill. He is also able to read the stars and has a love of the beauty of the moon. He believes that people should also use their freewill to their own moral advantage and not their wallets. His strength also lies in his ability to distinguish between morals and allegiance; he chooses not to pick a side because he believes that by abstaining from the battle he can choose when to intervene.
Weaknesses: His greatest weakness is simply the strength previous, through him not picking a side he is greatly criticised by both and some even refuse his help, due to this. He also is terribly passive, and seeks to find the diplomatic solution before engaging in any sort of active battle. He sees the good in everyone even if they do have some pretty huge flaws and sometimes it leads him into situations that he would rather have been left out of. The weakness he is most afraid of is someone dying because of him, and simply that is the reason that he doesn’t join the Company.

Hobbies: Painting, Watching the Stars, Caring for Nature.

Appearance: Tiberius is at first view a ‘typical’ 21 year old Caucasian male. His hair is brown and a short cut, as he says that this is more manageable when one gets up in the morning. His eyes are blue and he says that this normal look allows him to sometimes slip under the radar. He stands at around 6”1 and is relatively muscular, which is a trait that seems to be proud off and works hard to keep.
Celebrity Claim:Bloom, Orlando
Character lives in: NYC
History: The child with the mind of Tiberius Cortez was born on the 21st of December, the winter equinox. He was born to two loving parents who gave him his name from the river Tye. Tiberius always believed that he had wisdom beyond his years and began appreciating the moon even before he realized that he was doing it. He was born in the city just down the street from the Empire State Building to a lawyer and a doctor, they brought him into this life and he grew up to respect both of them for that.
Then he reached the age of 16, Tiberius first saw his own ability he could send a mind wave into the bodies of others and use it as a weapon. And that is how he came to be known to the Company, they said that he had been tracked by a little girl that he came to know as Molly. Tiberius in the last 5 years has learnt to appreciate the city that is his home, he has also been asked to go and work for the Company on various occasions however he chooses not to. He has also learnt martial arts to black belt standard which helps him if he ever engages in a fight. Also he has recently started learning to fire a gun.
Other information:
Flaws:(atleast 3): His first flaw he rates people over nature, however silly this may seem he thinks that he can depend on it more than people and strangely these people don’t particularly like this that much which leads to sticky situations. Secondly he believes that people should use the freewill that they were given and yet he also believes that they should be told what is morally right, so he contradicts himself a hell of a lot. Finally he has an arrogant nature that believes he knows best, which is why he finds it best to work solo as he always seems start arguments when working as a team.
Do you play anyone else: Nope not at the moment but I hope to.
Sample role-play: The day wasn’t the greatest, however Tiberius revelled in any day that gave the world life. He had decided long ago that life is a never-ending circle and therefore is something to be watched and adored, much like the sun that allows the life on this once barren rock. He lay in the apartment above a grove of trees on the edge of Central Park that was his home. He got up and decided that today was going to be special, no matter what happened…
He looked out at the Sun and realized that it was 6 in the morning. Perfect for an early morning stroll around the city. It was strange as much as he hated the city he found it fascinating to walk around Time Square with only the odd tramp or vagrant watching him move up the empty street. So he got dressed and moved to the entrance to 5th Avenue. He didn’t know what to do first. Get a bite to eat or just go for a walk. After a few minutes of deliberation he decided that a bite to eat would satisfy his hunger for something to eat and then he would walk off the possible bloating around Time Square.
There was a little diner along 7th Avenue that he loved so he decided to walk there for breakfast. He found it funny how each street seemed to have different people on it. On 3rd you found the vagrant who had learnt how to build something literally out of rubbish. On 29th there was the…well perhaps that’s too much; however it is necessary to say that the shaman noticed these things. Maybe it was because he sympathised with these people. The envy of the rich, however it could have been due to the fact that he envied the rich so much. He didn’t envy their lives; however he envied their innocence and their ability to brush the looming tragedy underneath the carpet.
He entered the diner and looked up at the television that seemed to be constantly on. And he saw it. Nathan Petrelli, some rich congressman, making a speech had gotten himself shot. By who? Apparently no one knew, now it was clear to Ty that today was going to be interesting.
