Reggie Walden can regenerate his own body through concentration. Also, using this concentration he can produce healing antibodies from his blood and through his hands.

Through the regular use of this ability his cells will eventually regenerate on their own and result in immortality. The slowing of aging could be manipulated for others as well, but not immortality.

History:
Not much is known about Reggie Walden who has absolutely no relevant past or foreseeable future. He was transported back through time by order of his leader, Liam Morris. His parents, any siblings, and significant others are not known as Reggie lost his memories of that long before his ability manifested in the year 2029. Having no past to refer back to, Reggie simply looked to the future and what he could do for the resistance, who is opposed to the world leader in his time line. It is that world leader he is trying to pinpoint in the our present day so he can eliminate him and/or set up a resistance in time to stop him. This villain had the power to overthrow entire nations and Reggie is bent on stopping him at any cost.

Family: Brother: Harold Morris, Father: Gerard Morris, Mother: Evelyn Morris.
Other Significant People: Wife: Elizabeth Morris.
History:
Liam Morris was once a very open and energetic person until his ability to manipulate time manifested when he was 26 years of age. He was heading to work at the Rustic Cafe - Ireland (wishing that it would be 9pm tomorrow so he could see his girlfriend) when he suddenly felt a shift in time and ended up at work at 9pm the next day within only a few seconds. He was fired from his job for not showing up two days in a row. This instance led Liam to believe he was different from others and he soon started to keep his distance after his ability ruined a few relationships. Liam began using his ability to see what the future was like, having dreamed of the future ever since he read the time machine. He witnessed the launch of the first space shuttle and watched the Apollo 11 touch down on the moon. But Liam wanted more and soon traveled to the year 2100, but when he arrived all he saw was a waste land world deserted of all human or animal life. Something big happened and Liam was determined to find out exactly what. Worried that the atomic bomb might have played a role, Liam traveled to the year 1942 to eliminate the creators of the weapon and the weapon itself. By doing this the future was changed drastically, forcing Liam to correct it and stop himself in the past. This only made things worse as he now had to stop a very determined younger self from completing his mission. He managed to stop himself by killing him, leaving Liam bewildered as to why he himself was still alive. It seems time was bigger than him or anyone else, so he returned to the year 1955 when he first left his time period for good. After re-establishing his relationship with his brother Harry, he discovered that his brother also had an ability. Harry was capable of manipulating time and space(exactly how Hiro Nakamura's ability works) and they became good brothers once more as they traveled to observe different time periods. This started as an observation but it quickly turned into a game of power with Harry. His power corrupted him and he soon craved to control the ancient civilizations of the world. Liam, opposed to this, intervened in Harry's plans which ruined their brotherly relationship. Harry had more power as he could teleport anywhere on earth and in time, but Liam was far more intelligent and outwitted his brother several times. Finally Harry decided to rid himself of his brother by wiping Liam from existence. Harry traveled to his brother soon after his birth and tried to kill him, but Liam interceded. The too fought and just before Liam killed his brother, Harry sent the baby to some unknown point in time and space. Having already killed a former version of himself Liam was already a walking rift in time, but this action had created another rift which separated Liam from time completely. Now Liam is capable of understanding time not as linear but as a simultaneous string, giving him the ability to see his own future and past simultaneously and send messages through time.
Not being able to come to grips with killing his brother, Liam traveled to a peaceful time in the year 2023 where he stayed. Liam decided that he would never travel to the past ever again for fear of creating another rift(one that might put a tear in space/time). He married to a woman named Elizabeth Stevens in 2026 and lived with her until 2029 when she was murdered by a soldier part of the New World Orde, spearheaded by a cruel and powerful dictator. This pushed Liam to form a group of people like him to stop this dictator and his evil regime that has swept the entire planet. Liam fought the New World Order every step of the way, which alerted the Order leader of people with abilities. This leader hunted them down ruthlessly in search of becoming immortal and gaining powers of his own, achieving this soon after (method unknown). In 2031, Liam saved a man name Reggie Walden from a research plant which studied their kind. They became good friends, having many similarities between themselves, and fully formed an underground order of their own called "The Resistance", with Reggie as the front man. Liam soon realized that guerrilla warfare wasn't going to work and decided sending operatives into the past was the only way to find out how this dictator came to power. Liam has, as of late, sent Reggie into the past to contact a potential alley that may help them to stop the future from coming to pass. Liam still sees the same wasteland future he witnessed through time travel in his meditations of his own future. This future ultimately is what he is trying to avoid, and believes that the Order has something to do with it.

The boy was sent to military school after getting into several fights at public school. The experience was thought to be able to cure him of his uncontrollable lust for superiority but it only sharpened his wit and gave him reason for his hunting nature.

History:
George Davies was always a quiet man and he gave respect to everyone, even those who didn't deserve it. He was kind and thoughtful and a natural detective, but never became one due to his overwhelming humility. His family has begun to neglect over the years, especially after the accident that took his right leg ten years ago. He now wears a prosthetic leg and works as an office clerk, of sorts, at a police department in New York City. He led a fairly normal but rewarding life of love and family but feels that he is declining in his later years. Because of this George often enjoys eavesdropping on other people's conversations and giving his own input as if he knew the solution. He even goes as far to snoop into police investigations. Everyone at the police department humors him from time to time and enjoy his presence at the precinct. He may not be revered, but he is well liked.
Full Name: Johnathan Alexander Perchart Alias(es): John Age: 27 Date of Birth: February 28th, 1982 Gender: Male Current Location: San Fransisco Occupation: Correspondent Newscaster/Journalist/Teacher Affiliations: None
Powers: Adaptive Equilibrium - The ability to have a perfectly functioning brain, mathematically sound and with practice a balanced thought process. Logistics and mathematical comprehension can be perfectly maintained through practice. Mathematical systems and patterns can be understood almost immediately, with a gaining ability to remember and calculate mathematics in observation. This gives the user the ability to tone one's body to perfection through the normal course of the human body and sharpens their reflexes and balance. Mathematical comprehension is just a bi-product of the original adaptive property and may become passive and undetectable to even the user. The user can eventually analyze a situation and tone one's body and senses to the point of a sixth sense; being able to predict the outcome of emotional behavior. In addition, the user can go without sleep for many days due to the equilibrium of the brain, as well as being able to 'switch off' parts of the brain resulting in manipulation of bodily functions.
This ability takes years to perfect and can cause the user mental turmoil over prolonged usage. Multiple personalities can arise as well as switches in the brain going off and on without warning as the ability develops.
Evolved attribute:
The main component to this ability is to adapt to coming changes via the functions of the brain. The switches in the brain that allow a normal human being to function are controlled by the user of this ability. Although this takes time to master, it begins as a passive activation according to the changes in ones environment. The brain will adapt and sharpen the skills and functions of the user, making him or her want to adjust things that are out of sync. This includes abilities. Eventually, adaptive equilibrium will allow for the activation or deactivation of an ability. One that is dormant will become active and vice-versa. What allows these manipulations is the inherent balancing property of the ability: being able to align neural pathways to perfect equilibrium. The eventual result is the mimicking of memories and then personalities of other individuals. However, it is unknown how far this ability could extend, and is therefore classified as an evolving ability. This means that it may undergo changes unforeseen by scientific observation and analysis. Such an ability may be the next step in the evolutionary chain. It could very well mean the beginning of a "meta-meta-human".
Appearance
Hair: Dark Brown Eyes: Brown Height: 6' Weight: 189lbs Celebrity Claim: Tom Hardy
History: A man who is disjointed in his own life, with no real connection to anyone even though everyone feels a connection to him. He builds good strong relationships that he himself doesn't believe in or care for yet he stays the course. John Perchart was born to a middle class family in a small town in Victoria, BC, Canada, but grew up with his sister and brother in Seattle Washington, being raised by his grandparents. His mother and father died when he was only 2 years old, being the youngest of his siblings but the most assertive. His grandparents died when he was 12 years old and his older sister took care of him until he reached 18. John's brother, however, used and abused the two of them until he left them both in 1996. Although his younger years were fraught with death and disappointment, he managed to get to college and live a normal life when he received a degree in television producing and journalism. John stayed in Seattle with his sister and eventually became a journalist and then a correspondent newscaster. He had many relationships with amazing women but he always ended them quickly because of his being not content with his life. He eventually left his job and traveled around the world until he came back at the age of 25. John then settled in a small town in northern California to become a small town journalist and teacher of journalism at the local high school. On December 12th, 2008 he fell asleep and awoke 6 months later in San Fransisco wearing his own night time clothes in a hospital. He was drained of all strength and doesn't understand how he got there. He eventually begins to realize that he had sleep walked the entire journey and that his brain is doing the flip flops in him. Shrouded in mystery, John tries to discover how this could have happened as a dormant ability begins to arise.

Possesses John Perchart's Ability
Appearance:
Exactly like John Perchart because he is residing within him. A second 'personality'.
Personality: Jeffrey is very sly and has the perfect silver tongue for any situation. He can portray anyone and has the wit and charm to make you believe every word he says. He has no abilities besides possessing John's when he is in control, but is undoubtedly a hard man to stop when he has his on eye on the prize.

Full Name: Dillon Reed Age: 16 Gender: Male Current Location: Los Angeles (An Empowered School Part 5: Los Angeles thread)
Ability: Unknown. Latent Stage.
Personality: Dillon is extremely sarcastic and relies on dry wit in all conversations. His lack of interest in what people have to think makes him an outcast but he can be very likable to the right type of people. His rough and roguish attitude gets him into trouble often but he always finds a way out even though he acts like a total ass. Being of a fairly high IQ range Dillon does extraordinarily well in class but takes to slacking off. His intelligence keeps him from acting normal as he thinks way, way too much.
History: Grew up in a small town in Alberta and spent the majority of his high school years in Calgary. Moved to Los Angeles about a year ago because his mother married a rich man who owns a lucrative corporation that sells and researches new technologies. Dillon scoffs at the idea of being rich since he always lived a fairly moderate middle class life up until about a year ago. Ever since then he has alienated himself from people hoping to release the tension in his family life. It was when his mother got married that he started smoking and disliking life in general. Now he has gone back to school for the 11th grade, having already taken extra classes during the summer, and is now taking 12th grade level classes.
Full Name: Kaleb 'Gilead' Bishop Alias(es): Gilead, Kay Age: 45 Gender: Male Current Location: New York Occupation: Minister, originally a priest and missionary Affiliations: The Fold
Powers: Clairvoyance - The ability to see far away images of people and places. It is also a handy tool for finding the exact location of a person or place via looking at an true image of that person or place. The present is seen as if being a third party to the area or person, whereas seeing the past is like seeing through the eyes of that person. Stronger connections to a person's past can be made by looking them in the eyes and examining their face. However, seeing the future is out of the question as the nature of the ability is to see what had been or is being recorded in the universe.
Appearance:
Hair: Short black Eyes: Dark Brown Ethnicity: African American Celebrity Claim: Laurence Fishburne
History: A man of the cloth Kaleb was brought up Catholic. He grew up in a strict Catholic family household and had an overbearing but loving father. His father was a man of the cloth as well and was well known among the community of New York. But he fell into poor graces with everyone when they discovered he was tipping off and helping local mobsters in robberies, prostitution rings, and money laundering. Kaleb was forever jaded by his father's poor actions when he found this out for himself. Giving his father to the law Kaleb went full into becoming a priest at the age of 19. He was a follower in the Catholic faith until he reached 32 and decided to become a missionary. It was in this job that he found the greatest joy of all and soon he defected from the Catholic faith altogether at the age of 40. It was the job that convinced him along with a family of evangelical Christian missionaries in Africa. He was taught by them for nearly 4 years until he decided it was time to go home to New York and reconnect with his love for being a minister. Upon returning to New York Kaleb changed his first name to Gilead as a sign that he had changed...meaning "Hill of Testimony". He was proclaiming to God he changed with this new name, hence his testimony to that change of spirit. He joined a local evangelical church that held weddings and he served as minister there up until just recently when he discovered he had an ability. He could see images from people's pasts and the present. After an odd wedding where a young woman by the name of Kelly Bourne disappeared in the middle of her vows, he discovered why she decided to leave her husband to be behind by seeing what had effected her judgment in her past. It was heart breaking and soon Kaleb was able to see things not only from people's eyes in the past but also how to locate people by looking at their picture. He could find anyone, anything, anywhere as long as he had an image a real image to look at. After seeing a picture of Alexander Sherman on the news he had a flash of what exactly had happened at the MIT campus. After this he decided to find this man as he had seen the pain in his past and hoped to heal this man of his wounds of the heart. Kaleb would have left the man to his business but he saw a ray of hope in the man that he himself didn't think existed. Since Kaleb was a natural healer of the soul he decided it was worth the try and also there was a possibility to clear the man's name and stop the Conclaive once and for all.
Full Name: Jacob Xanderson Alias(es): Jake Age: 35 Date of Birth: March 2nd, 1974. Current Location: New York City Occupation: Screenwriter Affiliations: None
Powers: Body Insertion/Phasing
Jake is able to insert himself into the body of any individual, putting his body into a state of suspended animation within that individual. Once inside that person's body he immediately overrides their control and has free range use of it. His own body phased within never ages because his atoms are in a state of flux. Jake can access the various memories of a person by focusing his mind on the person. This memory accessing begins as very passive and with time he could control it, but it doesn't extend outside the body he inhabits. The memories manifests in split second time lapses, meaning that the memories are viewed in real time whereas in reality only a split second has gone by. Memories manifest differently in everyone according to their personality, thought progression, and the advancement of human their brain. Any physical capabilities of that person, including abilities, can be accessed by Jake. He can even insert people into other people, giving them the same range of only physical capabilities. Body insertion is by definition a form of phasing and can lead to physical phasing through solid objects.
Limits:
Jake can only access the memories of the person he is inserted into and cannot use his own abilities whilst he is body inserted. The only exception is when he decides to leave the body, reversing the body insertion. Unfortunately, delving into someone's memories can be dangerous as Jake could become lost in them; having his mind essentially absorbed into them. The body insertie cannot gain his or her control back, but can potentially invade Jake's thoughts when he isn't focused enough. However, this isn't a problem for those that Jake inserts into others because the have no mental think to the insertie.
