Player Name: Mica.
Contact: onlilypads

Character Name: Phoenix
Canon: Original
Starting Canonpoint: A couple months after getting sniped on the street and brought to a facility to be experimented on, still in said facility.

Skills / Powers:

✮ Rebirth: Phoenix can die just as easily as a human, but he comes back to life a while later, with the same injuries that killed him (obviously healed enough to be survivable). The amount of time it takes him to come back depends on how healthy and energized he is when he dies. For more picky details, see his bio.
✮ Healing/Resurrecting Others: Technically, Phoenix's tears can heal others, but using that ability is "fiddly" so he rarely uses it. He can bring others back to life if they've been killed, though, and is more likely to simply kill an injured companion and bring them back rather than try to use the healing thing.
✮ Obsession Aura: Simply due to his nature as a supernatural creature, he has a mesmerizing effect on base-level humans that causes them to become fixated on him and want to own him. (I would likely nerf this for in-game interactions, though it plays a big part in his backstory.)
✮ Fire Manipulation: Phoenix can create and manipulate fire, but he hasn't unlocked that ability yet and doesn't know he has it.

Flaws:

✮ Trust Issues: Phoenix has had a rough life and doesn't trust easily. He's essentially given up on finding anyone who loves him for who he really is.
✮ Mercurial & Intense: Phoenix's emotions are very intense and can change very quickly, which is exacerbated by the fact that he has a lot of triggers after a lifetime of abuse. Oftentimes, this means his behaviour can be very unpredictable.
✮ Ego & Self-Esteem: Phoenix uses his inflated and delicate ego to prop up a complete lack of any real kind of self-esteem or confidence in himself.
✮ Impulsive & Self-Destructive: Often, he will get overwhelmed or overstimulated and ends up throwing himself into risky, dangerous, or even deadly situations without thinking, relying on the fact he 'can't die' to get him through.

Themes & Desires:

✮ Trauma Processing: Someone please help him work through the abuse he's dealt with his entire life, and help him believe it wasn't all his fault!
✮ Developing Trust: He's going to be very resistant and in denial to the whole sensate thing because it's hard for him to process that there are now people who he has no choice but to trust because they have access to his brain.
✮ Forming Community: It's going to be difficult for him to adjust to having 'family' of sorts, people who have his back and generally not being alone all the time. Usually he can just act in his own best interests at all times, and he's going to have to navigate putting other people's needs before his own.

Canonpoints To AU:

✮ The 'Lost Years': I'd be open to him having some mental company during the years he barely remembers when he got into a lot of stuff we'd have to content warn for.
✮ Current: He's currently stuck in a shady facility being experimented on. Anyone wanna stage one of those amazing sensate rescue sequences?
