Playby: Chris Evans
Name:Adam Spector
Age:28
Sex:Male
Sexual Orientation:Heterosexual
Species:Mutant
Physical Description:His height is 6'0" . His weight is 215lbs. Adam’s physical form is in peek condition of someone who runs, does boxing or constantly works out. His eyes make that of his sister’s blue and bright carrying a hint of humor at all times. Dark hair and skin tone are a stark contrast to Lizard’s light and fair appearance. Often he is very much the jokester or jester of sorts and animated in how he talks. Especially if he’s very passionate about something. This helps distract from what he’s doing in the casinos and keeps him from getting caught, at least it has for now. He does have faint dark circles forming under his eyes on occasion when he doesn’t get some form of rest or sleep.
Attitude:Adam’s sexy and he knows it. This often gets him in trouble. When first meeting one might think he’s the strong silent type until he opens his mouth and proves he’s rather outgoing and very spontaneous. It’s what keeps him sane while he keeps his sister safe. A little edge in life never hurt anyone right? He works hard to pull in all is he and his sister need. He has a definitive hero complex due to his guilt at being enabled to protect his and Lizzy’s mother as well as Lizzy herself for so long.
Abilities:He has the power of Telekinesis. It is classified as a mover in the mutant world. His abilities are that he can move things with his mind. He can move anything from dice at the casinos to furniture and slight movement of larger objects. He is also able to create a shield that can stop items from reaching him or whomever he has placed the protective barrier around.
Though his weaknesses are the same as most movers, he also finds that the migraines become increasingly more debilitating the larger the object or more energy he exerts in the process of moving the item. He is addicted to gambling as it’s all he’s known to bring in money for he and his sister. Sometimes it’s just too hard to stop with the easy payout for him and will find himself betting a little bigger than he should at times. He is suffering from insomnia due to nightmares from his past with the death of their father and mother. He fears that something will happen, and he will fail the only person he has left. His sister Elizabeth is his biggest weakness. He wishes to be able to give her anything she wants and is often a little overbearing in his quest to protect and keep her safe.
History:From birth to the age of ten Adam’s life could be described as pretty good. It was after that age when everything changed for him in a fast and surprising way. His father killed in a VSF raid left him and his pregnant mother to fend for themselves. Nine months later during the delivery of his little sister Elizabeth their mother died. This left Adam and Elizabeth to be separated and put into separate foster homes. It caused a lot of emotional damage and scars as Adam grew up without the ability to be with his only living family aside from occasional visits, which were everything to him.
During the hard separation at the age of 12 Adam started to develop abilities that were at first a little out of his control. They were brought on the first night by an emotional burst of anger at having been told he would not be able to see his sister that weekend. As he felt the build of force and focused on a lamp, he released it. Causing the lamp to fly across the room and break. As he realized that it was his doing he began to learn to control it and keep it hidden from his foster parents at the time. Working diligently with pencil, pen, toys or books, he learned that he could manipulate the very item and make it do what he willed it to do. Excitement and hope sprang up in his mind. If he showed his foster parents what he could do how special he was, then possibly, just conceivably they would bring Elizabeth to live with them too. He showed them his talent. This did not go as planned. Instead of helping him, they would horde his visitation privileges to Lizzy over his head. Beseeching him to do as they willed and help them at the casinos, or he would never see his sister again. Further more they would turn him in for being a freak. Scared for Lizzy and himself, he grudgingly gave in and did as they asked. Whatever it took to protect his little Lizard.
He hated it, he most of all hated them for doing this to him and for all that had gone wrong in their lives. Starting to blame himself for all that was out of his control and the inability to keep his family safe, he harbored that deep within himself. It started to build up to slowly cause him nights of sleeplessness. After learning of what Lizzy could do and what her foster family had been doing to her for drawing the future he became infuriated and decided that it was time to take action. First, he needed to set up his foster parents for a pretty harsh fall. Taking them to the casino and getting them excited and rushed for the winning streak, he soon fixed it, so they would be caught cheating. During the commotion of his foster parent's detainment, he slipped away in the crowd.
Sneaking off he headed for Lizzy’s foster home waiting for them to fall asleep or leave he picked the locks and let himself inside. Searching for Lizzy, he found her locked in another place and took her freeing her from the captive she had become. Promising her he would fix this, he would make everything better in their life. For a time, they lived on the streets until he was 18 and could work his magic in some of the seedier casinos. This was only accomplished with Lizzy’s aid as she could tell him whether or not he would be caught if he attempted it at certain places. They continued on this way making a way for themselves until found by Gran who rented them an apartment and helped them further their life.
He's now 28 and Lizzy is 18. She's hell bent to get him to straighten up and live right. She constantly talks to him about getting a job. It’s hard to stop doing something when the rewards are just so easy. He is trying to do what Lizzy wants. He really wants to make her happy and keep them safe and alive. He will always be her knight in shining armor unfortunately this is just how his dice has been rolled.

He was in a great mood today he had been out looking for a job, but he got sidetracked when he passed by one of his old haunts and slipped inside for a bit of fun and quick pocket money, he was getting low. If he was low, then he knew that Lizzy was and that didn’t sit well in his mind. Walking down the street with a bit of a strut as he was proud of himself, he slipped into the corner store and began to peruse the shelves. Picking out several things to take home for dinner, he headed to the counter stopping he looked into the ice cream chest. Seeing that they actually had some in stock, he thought to splurge a little and surprise Lizzy with it, and yea, he wanted it himself. Smiling to the cashier, he put his items on the counter for purchase and glanced towards the door while he waited for his total. His gaze moved over the items behind the counter things that were usually hard to come by, and he saw pencils as well as new drawing pads. “Hey, Let me get those as well. “ He'd splurge a little. He knew that Lizzy would love it. Sometimes he still couldn’t believe that they had made it this far. All he had to do was keep doing what he was doing and keep her safe. Lately, he hasn't made that easy. Yes, he was probably a bit overbearing and very controlling but the truth was it scared him to death that she would leave, and something would happen. That once again he wouldn't be able to take care of her A smile formed on his lips causing his unshaven features to pull into a boyish grin. The memory of how happy she was when they had first gotten away flickered into his mind watching her lay on the ground with pastels and paper, as she drew her work ona sunny day. It was great good memory things seemed so much simpler back then. Coming around from his day dream, he smiled at the total and slipped his payment over to the woman. Taking his items, he nodded a farewell and headed out into the street. God it was hot. Pulling off his over shirt, he tucked it in the back pocket of his pants letting it hang partially out. This left him with nothing more than a tank top. His old faded and pretty beat up jeans, belt and boots. Even though he rather be laying somewhere where there was some shade or cool air he grinned and bared it for now heading home. Slowing as he passed a group of attractive females, he smoothed a hand to the tank top trying to make it look better. Slapping on his usual grin he nodded to them. “ Ladies” A wink given to him from one as he passed them. One of the girls had him do a double take. She was beautiful dark hair, great body, long legs with those nice red lips. He could take a moment right? Seeing the angle of the sun, he shook his head no thinking to himself sadly he needed to get home. He turned away to head on down the street on his way.
Thirty minutes later he arrived home. Heading up to the apartment, stopping at the door, slipping the keys from his pocket and unlocking the door he headed in. The apartment was stifling and humid.“ Lizard! I’m home!”he calledout putting the bag on the counter and making a motion with his hand as it fell over the ice cream tumbling out. “Greeted with silence, he frowned. Moving to open a window to let in a breeze then heading through the apartment. “ Elizabeth!” When still no answer came he started to panic. Running to her room, he threw the door open. She wasn't there. He throughout all the apartments, he didn’tfind her. “Shit!” He shouted as he realized she wasn’tthere.“ She’s grounded! No, worse than grounded I’m going to lock her ass back in theclosetmyself!” Would he really do that? No. He was just scared to death and worried about where she could be. Was she ok? Where would she have went? WHY DID SHE NOT LEAVE A NOTE!?Hurrying out he headed to check Grans' home first without a glance back at the food. Ice cream forgotten on the counter lay half open starting to melt.
