"I have a serious chance of winning this thing; I'm positive."
Kevin Ford "Wither"
Circle: Water
Age: 15 yrs old
Skills: Kevin’s powers cause his skin to decay and destroy organic material. Organics include everything from cotton clothing to human skin. Kevin’s powers work instantly upon the organic material's contact with any part of his skin including every portion of his body. His powers break
down organic materials from the inside dissolving and decaying.
Weaknesses: He needs to hold on in order to cause serious decay. It's the
actual decay that causes the death not Kevin's powers, so if he were to
touch, say your arm and remove it quickly, you may be injured but you
will not die.
Friends: Left for RP
Family: Trevor Ford (Father- Deceased) Mother (Deceased)
Enemies: Joshua Foley
Brief History:
Kevin’s tragedy started at birth when his mother, a kindhearted Southern belle from Atlanta, died giving birth to him. His father, while distraught over his wife’s death, took his son into his arms and vowed to be the best father he could be for little Kevin. He worked to keep his son happy but didn’t overwork, spending time with his son every minute he could. He nurtured Kevin’s artistic and academic side and convinced the boy that he could do anything if he worked hard and put his mind to it. Kevin excelled in art and in school. His social life wasn’t as bubbling as most kids saw his as weird. But Kevin never gave up trying to make friends. It was during these younger years that Kevin developed a love for the X-Men, seeing them as outsiders who beat all odds to become superheroes. Kevin was convinced that if he was a mutant, he’d be just like them.
Unfortunately for the youth, his wish to become like the X-Men would come true with devastating consequences. It started one day when he was changing for school. His clothes suddenly began to decay on his body. No matter how many of his T-Shirts he put on they’d always end up the same way, as dust on the floor. Kevin’s father heard his son’s panicked cries and started up the stairs to see what was wrong. Kevin explained to his father what had happened and his father reached out a hand to comfort his crying child. However, that would prove a fatal mistake on his part as when he touched his son’s bare shoulder, he was instantly killed. Kevin tried his best to wake his father up and, upon realizing he was dead, held onto him crying. His power began to eat away at his father until he was reduced to a pile of dust. Kevin was horrified and, finding something that didn’t decay upon touching him which in this case was a synthetic sheet, rushed out of the house.
Kevin was wandering on the streets of the Georgian suburb, unsure of what to do about his current state. Deciding he’d go to live in the local junkyard where he would steal scrap metal occasionally. He lived there for maybe a week before he was discovered. A guard dog was sicked on the boy whom he instantly killed when the dog bit him. The junkyard workers were convinced he was a dangerous mutant and were about to beat the boy senseless before they were attacked and staved off by a local mutant. Explaining what happened to the kindhearted older male, Kevin found himself bandaged up, placed in synthetic clothing and sent straight to New York City to meet his heroes the X-Men! He was given his own room and started school with a smile.
However the smile disappeared as Kevin got into school. After a teacher showed him what his powers could do, Kevin fled the Xavier institute and ran to Mutant Town in NYC. He received his letter, sure that he was going to have a new start at life. But seeing he'd have to kill; Kevin wasn't so sure he wanted to stay.
