Sam Alexander :: Nova (Done)

FULL NAME: Samuel Alexander
ALIASES: Buckethead, Nova, Nova creep
CODENAMES: Nova
AGE: 17
PLAY BY: Optional

Sam still has room to grow being that he is a teenager. However he will stand evenly at six foot when he's done. He has sharp black hair that he inherited from both his parents and stunning brown eyes. He has light skin though from being outside so often he tends to have a slight tan to it. His average weight is 160 pounds evenly. When Sam is in his Nova suit it comes with the distinct rank of Nova Supreme's which is one of the highest ranks. However his power class is defined by the four pointed star making him Denarian. He has a four pointed star on his head that most novas would recognize his status as middle ranking and second compared to the lead Nova.

Sam's costume is an interesting one as it has three golden plates in on his chest as it forms a triangle on the center. Other body parts of his armor that consist of gold are his wrist plates that go up to his shoulders and as well as the ones that are on his knees and go down to his shins. The rest of his armor that consists of black is his torso, lower legs and gloves. Finally his helmet is black as well as it can do a variety of feats for him. One such example is having the ability to breath while in space with a very good amount of oxygen in store as a clear plating comes down around his mouth to protect him from the deadliness of space. If this shield so to speak, is cracked he will be killed almost instantly if he doesn't get air soon. The helmet for most standards covers his face hiding his identity if he doesn't wish to show it in front of others.

*Homework

FEARS:
*Sam has a great fear of white, red-eyed rabbits.
*Not being able to reunite his family

Over all personality: At first Sam was a disbeliever, he was tired of his father always leaving them and for not being there when he was needed with his family. He had no idea how much his father was needed in other galaxies or other planets that had no heroes of their own to protect them. He just wanted his father home, and with every single time he left he had grown to dislike his father more and more. But when he had the helmet on for the very first time he began to understand how important his father was. he is however a bit on the arrogant and stubborn side since he often runs into battles without thinking them through. And more than once disobeyed orders from Nick Fury, and learning the hard way on how bad that can be as a punishment is waiting right around the corner. Though he mostly keeps it a secret, Sam has a fear of white rabbits and is absolutely afraid of them to the point of where he'd run out of the room to get away from them. It is to be honest unknown on why he doesn't like them.

Desbite these personality flaws, Sam really doesn't know the extent of his powers like his father does. He will at some point need to be trained by another more experienced Nova Corps member if he comes across one. But he certainly respects other Nova Corps members seeing that they are allies. he is over all a good kid and likes what most teenagers are interested these days. He tries to balance out his teenaged life and as well as his super hero career which can certainly a challenge. As he has found away to have time for dating with another young hero named Rina Howlett, who's the daughter of Logan Howlett.

FAMILY:
Ava Alexander (Mother)
Jesse Alexander (Father, Deceased)
Kayleen Alexander (Sister)
HISTORY: Sam Alexander was the first born in the Alexander family. His father was already a hero beyond Earth and would often have to leave. He left on more than once and sooner than later, Sam was old enough to sort of understand but not really why his father was needed else where. But his father had always come home with interesting stories that managed to make at least his sister happy about it. When Sam was about 14 years old, he discovered that his father had gone missing and was likely dead to his assumption. Nearly a year went by as his mother, Ava discovered that there was something that had been left behind by his father and it was his helmet. Which was a black Nova Corps helmet that had a four pointed star on it marking the rank that it ha belonged to. She offered to give it to him as memories of his father's were in it but he turned it down fearing he'd be nothing like his father.

Several months passed before their house caught fire in Arizona where Sam and Kayleen were home at the time. Sam had no choice but to use his father's helmet to escape the fire as it had trapped them in the home. He burst through the roof escaping with the helmet and as well as Kayleen to make sure they had all survived. Though the landing was a bit choppy, it wasn't a bad flight. With that Ava rushed home to make sure that her children were alright and were certainly relieved to figure out that they had been both safe at this point. When she came over to see her two children, she saw Sam and Kayleen and as she saw her son, it reminded her of her husband when Sam had put on the helmet.

It wouldn't be long before the young heroes' actions were noticed as the director contacted Sam as to recruit him for an agent. It wasn't long before he got his mother's permission for being a minor to join SHIELD to become a young hero again with the right tools and training at hand. For some time now he's been on the team and has eventually found a girlfriend named Rina Logan. Who is the daughter of Logan and Elecktra Howlett.

POWERS:

Minor Telekinetics: Sam does have minor telekinetic abilities from his helmet. he can lift light weight things like rocks, and several bricks at once. However, larger things like hunks of metal will prove to be quiet difficult, as he needs to concentrate more. With that being said it'll take a lot to move heavier objects and weaken Sam over time if he does it too often.

Nova Blasts: Sam is able to project nova blasts from his hands. His aura from his Nova Corps is a bright blue as it glows around his body when he is using it and flying around. His concussive blasts are the same way as he is able to fire several with both hands. It is really unknown of what the concussive blasts are made from but it is said a large part of the make up of them is photon particles.

Absorbing Energy: Sam has the ability to absorb most common energies that are in the world like psionic energy and redirect it back in his own choice of what to do with it. He does not know the extent of this power but it is clear to say that he'll figure it out soon in the future. This seems to be another area where he is challenged with as he has little experience in this area.

Flight: Sam can fly at most at Mach 1, but more common speeds that he is used to is about 150 miles an hour before starting to be overcome by exhaustion. He has the ability to fly in outer space with need for oxygen that is supplied through his Nova Corps helmet in order to let him to adapt to the lack of air in space. His first flight however had not been the best as it took him sometime to try and learn it through trial and error. He has certainly gotten better with flying as he can do multiple feats with it in battle such as areal combat.

Super Human Strength: Sam can lift up to 20 tons without getting exhausted in a fight. Anything higher than that will be a strain on his body.

Minor Cosmic awareness: Though he does not know the extent of this power he has the ability to have some conscious awareness of what is going on in the universe. He still has very little knowledge of how to activate it or how it really works. Sam often times sees it through his dreams on things that have happened in other universes. Often times he has difficulties trying to decipher what the dreams are showing him and often leave him with more questions than answers.

His helmet has other feature such as being able to breath in outer space, can detect other nova helmets, and also has the ability to read a past user's nova helmet to see who was once wearing it.

WEAKNESSES:
*If Sam looses his helmet, his powers go with it, as he'd return to being a normal teenager again.
*Sam does not know the extent of his powers and will likely need an older and more experienced, Nova Corps member to teach him one day.
*Stubborn: Sam has a stubborn personality. If things don't go his way or if he disobeys orders, then it'll be drastic for him in the future.
*Sam is a normal human he can easily get sick or suffer from major wounds such as blood loss since he doesn't have a healing factor. It will take days or even months for regular wounds to heal if he's in a bad injury.

Writing sample: Today was normal for once, so far no one had managed to hear about some villain tearing up New York City and he'd have to come to the rescue in time in order to help save them. He had been by himself for the most part as Sam wanted to get away from the constant training and his muscles always getting sore by the end of that. He found something that he could do by himself or with others even if they wanted it. He had enjoyed skateboarding and there were plenty of parks in the city that he could do that where it was allowed. He traveled down there and began to make his way onto the court as he brought his down on the rough asphalt. His first few tricks were pretty good as far as he could tell but on the last one he knocked himself off the skateboard and fell face first into the pavement. But luckily as he stood up he didn't seem to have much of an injury as he had his padding on and a helmet of course. He had been safe for that one.

However as he got up and figured he'd take a break he froze as he felt the ground shake like an earthquake which stunned him even more. "An earthquake in New York?" He asked in surprise as he saw some of the people starting to run in fear. Sam however took a different direction as he hid behind some of the bushes to change into his Nova costume and receive his powers. He could feel the Nova Force going through him as his blue aura came up coating over his body as he flew into the air to go see what was coming. And to his surprise it was an ice looking creature that he had not seen before. But heard of for sure. It was called a Jotun from Norse mythology as it was about ready to slam down on him with a large club. However that was not going to happen this time. "Take this ice giant, some Nova blasts will probably hurt a ton tomorrow." He said

And with that he charged up his hand and sent a blast in the creatures direction. Ice shattered as he began to realize that this might've been a bad choice on going by himself. As he continued to keep the Jotun busy he began to call in Nick Fury for back up, and maybe some other super hero help.
