Personality: From the enormous database of personality traits he has absorbed, Brightside has somehow managed to scrap together a coherent human persona, which his conscious mind believes to be his only intelligence (much like how we would only believe in our thinking-self if we were uneducated about our instincts and psychology). Overall, he is easy going, empathetic, confident to an extreme, though not in an outright arrogant or narcissistic way. He isn't a danger seeker, but due to his near-invulnerability, he's never afraid of going into a fray or dangerous situation. He is easily bored and sometimes slothful, yet also unafraid to advocate for various social rights, such as the GLBT community, of which he's something of an unofficial champion, and engages anyone he sees that does harm. However, while most consider him a super-hero, he does not see it that way: he doesn't actively patrol or look for trouble, but if he ever hears of it, he finds it's just "the right thing to do" to go and stop it.

History: Mr. Brightside is not some alien with amnesia, as most people (and he himself) believe. Rather, he is an almost incomprehensibly complex non-biological organism, developed by some unknown, powerful intellect. This being created him out of a material that doesn't exist anywhere in the Milky Way: non-energetic plasma, essentially matter in the plasma state, but existing at any temperature. Using whatever strange, alien science available to him, he created the equivalent of DNA for it and shaped it into an amoeba-like "cell" of condensed non-energetic plasma. Then, for whatever unfathomable purpose, the being launched the cell through space and time to a planet covered in organic life: Earth.

Once Brightside arrived on earth, his genetic programming kicked in. Assuming a nigh-invisible form, he slipped into the various organic beings around him, essentially downloading their information. Eventually, he jumped into human beings, where the next stage of his programming took over. Slowly assimilating the base of the human mind, Brightside began developing a budding human personality of his own.

Finally, after much data collecting, Brightside emerged. Moving into his next stage of evolution, he assumed a physical form, a highly durable membrane of his plasma shaped into human form, and a fully functioning human mind- one that had no understanding of the rest of his history, purpose, or actual being. After a few incidents with police and his lack of clothing (he didn't form them, after all), Mr.Brightside was integrated into society as a benevolent alien- but his true purpose is not known, not even to himself.

Powers: Due to his nature, Brightside's body "heals" more quickly than normal. When he is hurt, he loses a small amount of body mass- the rest reforms to appear to be a wound. This lost mass, however, does not simply disappear. Rather, it temporarily dissipates and merges back with the main mass over a large period of time- far too slow to be noticeable in a combat situation, but he can recover from injuries that would keep others out of the fight for weeks in just one day. (1 EP)

Brightside can also "project" a portion of his mass, even separating it from his body. The amount of mass is nearly, but not entirely, neligiable, and thus he can project a large amount of it before he would get any lighter. However, it still has some of the same properties as him: a plasmic seal that creates great durability, and programming to allow easy manipulation of the material. While he can't create complex objects (as the seal would be attracted to itself and just collapse any small parts), he can still make "solid" constructs of unenergetic plasma that he can form into nearly any shape. (5 EP)

Character Image/Description: Essentially the same as his costume, but more often jeans, T-shirt, and a jacket. He doesn't have a secret identity.

Roleplay Sample:
"Look. I was walking down the street, and you suddenly wanted to go all ape shit on the city...and you didn't think I'd do anything about it? Puh-leaze."
The poor creature grumbled, but couldn't make any other sign of protest....most likely due to the swirling energy that trapped him. The mutated beast had decided to charge down Main Street for no intelligent reason, but a quick tussle down the block and a few energy slaps later, Mr. Brightside had saved the day once again. A few photographers had stopped to take pictures, which he didn't mind- but he knew sooner or later that more of them would come, and he didn't want to have to answer a truckload of questions. It wasn't that he wanted to seem mysterious or aloof; he just didn't want to deal with being civil in front of the cameras.

Giving a quick wave to the cameras, Brightside moved the beast in front of him as he walked down the street towards the jail. Oh, how he wished he had a car, but he never felt the need to get a real job; after all, he didn't need to eat or drink (which he accounted to being a weird alien), and he got the occasional donation from the grateful citizen, so why would he need to ruin his carefree life with a job? Still, it was times like this, trying to avoid the paparazzi, that he desperately wished he had a better source of income.

You should put 2 EP into the regeneration, since multiple fights would mean you regenerate in about 3-4 hours. 1 EP would mean it takes you 24 hours to regenerate. The 2/4 EP wouldn't change your powers at all; it would just change the way your sheet looks.

I'm fine with everything else on the stats.

The regen fits fine. So the you are manipulating the substance you are made of? If so is there a limit to how much of yourself you can use before you are used up?

Technically, yeah. I can make, say, a 3-story building out of the stuff, but I'd be significantly lighter and much easier to push around- not to mention the plasmic seal might thin out a bit, so I'd temporarily lose one end. But, I would never make something that big. It'd take like, two turns just to pump all of that out and there wouldn't really be a use for something of that size.

Approving. As long as Bliss has no objections, I'll move to the Approved Heroes. PM Black Arrow, Pain or Unrealistic.Entity for a Powergrid.

Simply include two colors of your choice and your stats.
