Name: Alvin

Gender: Male

Age: 68

Race: Being of Marianas

Physical description: Alvin stands six foot four inches in height with a slender yet somewhat muscular build, like that of an Olympic swimmer. He has shoulder length bleach blond hair and very very light blue eyes, many confuse them for white at a distance. His face is clean shaven and very sharp as are his features, giving his face a very feminine appearance. His body, though muscular is very, VERY curvaceous and gives him an even more gender confused appearance. He wore simple enough clothing: A pair of long black shorts that hung loosely around his waist, so low that if he wasn't wearing the knee length speedo he wore, it would show something that not every one wanted to see. His chest was covered by a simple black tee shirt with the white lettering proclaiming 'polar ice vodka'.

However, under this perfectly human appearance lies a dark secret. Within his body are multiple different organs that allow him to do many things, primarily organs that generate large quantities of phosphors, or light producing cells. These amazing cells come from the creatures he evolved with, the creatures of the deep.

Mannerisms: Bent solely on the recapturing of the land above for the beings below, Alvin rarely ever meets and/or keeps true to his word and is a very good liar. This sense of psychological camouflage allows him to become close to a group of people and surprise them in the end.

Bio(Abridged): Alvin wasn't always the creature known as 'Alvin'. At one time, he was perfectly human, a quite successful one at that. He was a marine biologist assigned to the Marianas trench exploration team. This truly fascinated him.

During his time down in the abyss, the human now known as 'Alvin' fell in love with the creatures of the deep. He was amazed by the complexity of their everyday life from their hunting techniques to the very resistance to the freezing cold and crushing water pressure.

It was one day, during one of his dives in the American submersible 'Alvin' that his life changed. He had spotted an odd fish that emitted an amazing amount of light. He followed it, despite the warnings of increasing pressure. That's when it happened. With a sudden 'crack', the 'Alvin' was snapped in half. It's pilot should have died instantly, but the human didn't die. Instead, that little fish floated in front of his face, glowing brighter and brighter until it exploded with a flash of blue radiance, and lo there floated a beautiful woman's face. This woman turned out to be the incarnation of Marianas, the spirit of the Abyss. She spared him, and raised him as one of her own in exchange for his devotion to her. She aided his body in adaption to the deep waters. After forty eight years, Marianas thought him ready to go back to the surface. His goal was simple, sink it all, and let his lady Marianas rule it all.

Powers:

Organs-
Gills: Located under arms.
Eyes- Adapted to the pitch black, they can see very well in the darkness.
Muscles- Much stronger than a normal humans due to constant swimming and natural adaptions.
Extendable jaw- Much like the gulper eel, 'Alvin' can stretch his moth open widely in order to deliver a mean bite.
Extendible fangs- much like angler fish and hag fish, 'Alvin' can push his fangs in and out of use able position.
Photophor producers: They produce the light cells.

Bio luminescent powers.

Using his photophors, 'Alvin' imitates the use of these cells like many of his deep sea brethren.

Photo grenade- By using the cell producing glands in the pals of his hands, 'Alvin' can create a ball of photophors that are thrown at his enemies. These balls of bio luminescent substance expel an exponential amount of light and heat after being thrown and tend to Blur vision or burn flesh if a direct hit is scored.
Photo glue- By excreting massive amounts of photophors from his wrists, he can fire a small hose of sticky adhesive from the top of his wrists. This also shines with inner bio luminescence and heats up quickly, it will cause severe burns shortly after contact.
