NPC-Pete

Peter J. Stepford Jr Codename Carbuncle Birthdate 1998 Species Mutant Affiliation None Alignment Evil Powers Diamond Armor Occupation None Registration Status Registered Introduction xxxxxSon of Congressman Peter Stepford and half-brother to Teague, Pete grew up in a wealthy, conservative household under intense scrutiny and pressure to succeed. Upon manifesting, he suffered from a mental breakdown and became ferociously violent. He was subdued in part through the efforts of his half-brother, who used his own abilities to counteract Pete’s. After this incident, Teague fled and Pete was secretly kept under sedation while their father used his mutant abilities to fund his anti-mutant agenda. xxxxxRecently, Pete was freed through the covert efforts of the Brotherhood of Mutants. He is operating in New York under an alias. Personality xxxxxPete uses his natural charisma to manipulate others for his own gain, or for the sheer pleasure of it. Most of his interactions are a well rehearsed lies. When this fails him, he is known to become easily frustrated and aggressive. However, there are chinks in his armor: he has a strong sense of familial loyalty, and is desperate to please a paternal figure that he hasn’t found yet. Powers xxxxxPete is a mutant with the ability to temporarily augment sections of his body with organic diamond clusters. Grotesquely coming up from beneath his skin, this can often be mistaken as him taking diamond form. The diamonds are always, inevitably rejected by his body and fall out. While attached, they function primarily as a defensive mechanism for him not unlike armor. xxxxxBy their very nature, diamonds are extremely hardy against physical force. They are capable of withstanding immense pressure, are ideal conductors of heat, and are excellent insulators against electricity. Logs No logs have been posted yet.
