Personality: Cold, Cynical, loner, he is the typical teenage rebel, doing what he wants when he wants. He's the tough guy, the bad ass, the bad boy every girl dreams of.

History: David was abandoned by his mother when he was just an infant, his father had left his mother on word of her being pregnant with him, he just wasn't man enough to handle the responsibility, either that or he just didn't care. His mother believed her son was a demon spawn, a freak of nature, he was born with these gifts, this strange power, everything he touched seemed to have the life sucked out of it. As a young child, he had no control over it, his mother had suffered several near death situations from simply holding him, she couldn't handle it so she gave him up. David grew up in foster care, growing up alone with no friends, everyone thought him to be a freak as well. His personality changed as he grew older, he became cynical, cold, a loner, getting into many fights with many kids who thought they could beat up on him. He was always a big kid, rather muscular and aged quickly, most likely aging so quickly from the amount of energy he absorbed on a daily basis. At age sixteen, he ran away from foster care to leave on the streets on his own. He did petty crimes and conned people out of their money to get by, becoming street wise and tough, getting stronger every day...

Powers: Energy Absorption - On command he may absorb energy with his hands, or feet. The energy he absorbs may be used in several ways, as a weapon, as armor, or a even a skateboard beneath his feet. The amount of energy he absorbs depends on how long he is absorbing and how powerful the energy is. For example, if he were to absorb the metal from a car, the metal from the car could cover his entire body, or just a portion of it, it's his own choice. He can coat himself in a metallic armor in about a second, but something like electricity or fire would be much harder to do, and it would be much more painful to absorb. The limit to what he can absorb depends on his own durability, he can also grab you by the throat or elsewhere and drain you of your energy, but it may also cause him harm depending on your type of energy. The energy he drains he may use against you, when absorbing the energy, he can also somewhat shift his body, for example, if he were to absorb the wood from a tree, or the metal from a building, his body would be coated by it, creating an armor around him, while he has this armor, he can shift his body into sharp weapons, bludgeons, shoot out projectiles, etc. He basically can temporarily steal powers from allies, enemies, the environment, or simply suck the life out of them. His has similar effects to Rogues power, only it takes much more time in order for it to deal the same damage, it simply slowly drains the life and energy out of them, the higher their energy, the less life he takes from them since they have more to fend it off with. All the energy he absorbs is only temporary, it's length depends on how much energy he has absorbed.

That's Kevin Levin. Awesome!

Man I got shut down for power copy and energy drain.

Write me a real description of it, and I would consider approving it, if it seemed fair to me. You usually describe your powers in one or two words.

I know.

Well Copying and Absorption isn't usually approved, but seeing as how its your ONLY power, and its a lot more detailed and different from normal copying and absorption, I think it should be approved

Agreed.

I'll third that, especially since he has to physically touch you for a little while before getting the benefit.
