Roscoe’s just a kid; when he came to Prometheus he’d barely started the eighth grade. He’s neither very obedient nor very uncooperative with the guards, more cautious and compliant around researchers. With the other labrats he tends to be talkative, excitable, and frankly sort of clingy.

Page subtitle

Introduction

xxxxxOverview of your character goes here.

Description

xxxxxRoscoe is five-foot-four and fervently hoping for a growth spurt. This is particularly unfortunate combined with his sinewy build, which just refuses to bulk up despite his best efforts. He has straight black hair cropped short and not very stylishly, dimples when he smiles, and prominent front teeth. He was supposed to get his braces off like a year ago; he’s still waiting.

Reputation

xxxxxRoscoe has been hanging around Lassiter for over a year now, so he knows his way around, and pretty much everybody knows him. He doesn't command much respect, but doesn't ask to. He's meek with the labcoats, less meek with the guards, but still respectful enough that he gets away with teenagerness. Keeps to himself around the inmates; has a handful of friends who mostly think of him like a kid brother or occasionally a kid. Somewhat scrappy but tends to lose fights.

History

xxxxxCould have gone to juvie and saved himself all this trouble, but he’s been told they would have gotten him in the end, anyway. Labrat since October 2021, Lassiter lab since February 2022.

Powers

xxxxxRoscoe describes his powers as “x-ray vision” but they have little to do with x-rays at all. His vision is exponentially sharper and more fine-tuned than the average human’s, which allows him to see through most solid objects by refocusing his eyes to ignore the particles of matter in the way. His range of vision is not much greater than average, but his visual acuity is something like 20/2.

Skills

xxxxxKarate through elementary and middle school, blue belt, sort of out of practice. Minecraft survival mode. Minecraft in general, actually. Chess club – he’s no chess genius, but he does know a ton of terminology. Audiovisual tech support, services, troubleshooting, etc. learned mostly on the job at school assemblies. Various parkour nonsense, self-taught and overenthusiastic. Reading upside-down and backward, reading really fast. Limited conversational Vietnamese.

Trivia
  • Medical breakthroughs Roscoe has aided in: zero. Every few weeks someone new stumbled across his file and got really excited about the potential, whereupon they would go to Lassiter, run a bunch of tests, either come up empty or get their project nerfed by someone in the CIA, and slink away in disgrace. At least one of them did so like three times. LOL suck it.
  • Good at school. Skipped third grade and was an additional year ahead in math, or at least he was before everything went down.
  • No longer allowed to have pens. Has stabbed three people with pens. Which isn't a lot, but it's a lot to have had a fairly negligible impact on how nonthreatening people seem to find him. One of them wasn't even in Prometheus. But if you bring it up with anyone who was there you'll get a lot of shrugs and "Eh, the guy was asking for it" and he didn't even die anyway, so it was no big.
