WELCOME TO LOS EUROSIA,
CORNELIUS TATE LOGAN
"Some will win, some will lose, some were born to sing the blues."
BASICS
NAME: Corey Logan
AGE: 16
BIRTHDATE: July 31st
PRONOUNS: He/Him
SEXUALITY: Straight
RELATIONSHIP STATUS: In a Committed Relationship
OCCUPATION: High School Student
NEIGHBORHOOD: Westhook
MEMBER GROUP: Gifted
POWERS: Superhuman Strength and ReflexesSUPERHUMAN STRENGTH (Dominant)
Corey basically has the strength that most men, let alone boys dream of. He's able to lift most things, though he started small, and has worked his way up to bigger and bigger items as time has gone on. Though he is superhumanly strong, he does have the ability to tone down his strength and appear "normal" only using it when necessary. While throwing insanely strong punches, slaps, kicks, and the like are all easy. Lifting and throwing objects can take more energy from him, and it is known to take its toll on him.
SUPERHUMAN REFLEXES (Dominant)
Corey's reflexes exceed the average human in a lot of ways. With some calling his reaction time inhuman, and some would even argue that makes him a cheat on the football field. But all the same, he's nimble and quick enough that it can be hard to land a punch unless it's timed correctly. That said, this is the harder of the two to master, and while it works in his favor, it also can backfire with his reflexes sometimes moving faster than the rest of his body and mind.
(He will also develop two more as the story progresses)
THE LOOKS
HEIGHT: 6'3"
WEIGHT: 150lbs
HAIR COLOR: Brown
EYE COLOR: Green
FACE CLAIM: Nat Wolf
OVERALL APPEARANCE: Corey is your average teenager for the most part. He dresses in the "cooler" fashions and seems to keep up with the regular trends in life. But he isn't obsessed. He's handsome, which lead to him being a bit of a ladies man in his younger years - and while he's committed now - he still attracts a lot of attention. At school, he's never seen without his letterman's jacket.
INSIDE
LIKES:
Football
Comics and Comic Book Movies
Sarcasm - he lives on it
Online Gaming
His girlfriend - Jen and best friends Jake and Tucker
His dad - most of the time.
DISLIKES:
Bullies - Of any kind.
Secrets.
Standing still - a bit ADHD.
His school rivals - obviously.
Losing.
STRENGTHS:
Physicality - Literally, look at his powers!
Confidence - some call it cocky, he calls it assertive.
Overly friendly - the type of guy who can make friends on a whim. Or he likes to think.
Loyal - Once you're his friend, it's for life and he'd literally die for you.
WEAKNESSES:
His Friends and Family - Again, he'd literally die for any of them.
Gold - It randomly has an effect on him and seems to negate his abilities or at least weaken them.
Hotheaded - Known to rush into situations before properly thinking them through.
Too Trusting - Some would argue he'll trust just about anyone or give them a fair shake. Which is dangerous.
OVERALL PERSONALITY:
Corey has always been "the golden child", even if he'd argue that he never asked for the title. Incredibly bright, funny, and popular, some argue he has it all. But Corey at the end of the day is just a simple, down-to-earth kind of guy who doesn't let any of it go to his head. Known for having a thick head when it comes to rushing into situations, he often finds himself reminded of his own limitations but is constantly pressing them. A fact which leads many to believe he needs to be reined in (something his girlfriend argues she's already done) - but Corey simply cannot be tamed. The older he gets, the more he pushes those boundaries - for better or worse.
BACKGROUND
HOMETOWN: Unknown
FAMILY:
Stephen "Steel" Daniels [Father/Vigilante/Deceased]
Helena "Fury" Daniels [Mother/Vigilante/Deceased]
Kurt Logan [Adoptive Father/Sector Agent]
PETS: Lash [Rottweiler]
HISTORY:
Corey was born the son of not one, but two gifted individuals that the common person would easily call "superheroes". While the duo spent much of their lives fighting other gifteds who sought power and greed, they managed to mostly stay under the radar. It was only when Corey was born that they allowed themselves to settle into mundane, "normal" human lives - something which would be their downfall. Very little is known about what happened the night Corey's parents were murdered - only that a dangerous Gifted codenamed "Black Hood" had somehow found and murdered them both.
Corey's parents had long been observed and monitored by "The Sector", who discovered Corey to be the lone survivor. While normally, he would have gone into foster care, it was quickly decided given the unusual circumstances, he wasn't safe with "normal" foster parents. Instead, he was quietly adopted by an agent of The Sector, Kurt Logan, who could watch over and protect him. The fact that Corey was only a few months old only made it easier to change his identity and keep it out of public eye. Though the pair turned heads given Kurt was African-American, Corey never really minded, doing his best to ignore the ignorance and racism they dealt with. While outright speaking out against the blatant racism when he became older and understood better.
For his part, Kurt stepped up as a father to him, and gave Corey a loving childhood. Corey was raised to know that he was adopted, but loved by his biological parents - and that one day he’d know more when he was ready. The more time passed, however, Corey became less concerned with who his biological parents were. Given that he equally loved Kurt like the man loved him, he decided he’d rather not risk that relationship by prying further.
As Corey grew up he excelled in both athletics and academics, growing into a star football player. He entered high school flanked by his two best friends, Jake Mason and Tucker Bradley, and only grew in popularity. Soon becoming the "star quarterback", it seemed that he had it made. Then, Jennifer Brooks entered his life. Jen was the one girl not attracted to his innate charm, and it drove Corey nuts. It took months and months of convincing, but eventually - he entered a relationship with the brainy, lovably snarky girl and things seemed to be even better from there on.
Then it happened.
Near the middle of sophomore year, Corey and his two best friends underwent some "changes". Corey discovered his super strength and reflexes, Tucker his electrokenesis, and Jake his hydrokenesis. It was quite the shock to all three boys, who quickly did what most teenage boys would... Have fun with it. Corey remaining blissfully unaware about his father's day job and the fact that one day, they would both have to come to terms with this. Over time, all three learned to control their abilities to most degrees and despite having to hide it from his father, and girlfriend, Corey has done a good job with it.
That said, there is a part of him - perhaps inherited from his parents - that believes he's meant to do more with his powers than just use it to pal around with the guys. The same part of him who can't help but feel that something bad is coming...
