A familiar black bird landed outside of the Titans Tower, unfolded, and retreated into nothingness. Robert stood still with a suitcase in hand, finally back from a family vacation. He smiled up at the tower, and then casually made his way into the building. He stopped in the foyer to look around and see if anybody was around.

Character Name: Robert Cole Wilson
Character LJ: feelmypride
Physical Description:
Age: Eighteen
Birthday: October 31
Codename: n/a
PB: Alex Libby

Abilities:
Empathy: Robert is able to sense and control the emotions of others for different effects. Not only can he alter a person's emotions, but he can also choose to rob a person of all of their emotions. He can do both of these to one or multiple people at a time. Like his mother, his best known ability with his empathy is to absorb the pains of others into himself, inducing rapid healing in his patient.

Soul-Self/Astral Projection: Robert has the ability to separate his soul from his body in the form of a large, black bird. With this Robert is able to walk between dimensions, or over vast distances in the same dimension in a short span of time. It can be used defensively as well, being able to absorb items aimed at himself or others and then push them out later. He can even use it as a means of containment. Unlike with his mother, being contained in Robert's soul-self doesn't cause one to come face to face with his/her worst nightmares. Instead, because Robert is more stable, being contained within his soul-self brings a person to a state of peace. This makes his soul-self much more suitable as a mode of transportation.

Anti-Demonic Aura: Robert has, at all times, an aura around him that repels demonic power. It even goes so far as to prove harmful to demons who touch him, and physically repels them away from Robert. With enough concentration, he can use his aura to exercise demons who are possessing others.

American Sign Language: Robert is highly fluent in ASL.

ADDED NOTE: Powers cannot be used on PCs without player permission.

Weaknesses and Flaws:
His ability to heal others by absorbing their pain induces that pain onto Robert himself. He will feel all of the pain that he absorbs, and can be killed if he absorbs too much at once. As a result, he cannot heal fatal injuries or dangerous diseases. Despite being more stable than his mother, Robert's powers are not more powerful when his mind is in a state of peace. They do, however, fluctuate with his emotional state; becoming weaker or stronger depending on the emotion he feels at the time. When Robert uses his anti-demonic aura to exercise more powerful demons, he is left in a weakened state.

Despite Jericho's vocal issues never having been genetic, Robert was born mute and slightly deaf. As a result, communication with others has proven difficult and he is forced to mostly convey how he feels to others through his empathy. Robert is also unskilled in hand-to-hand combat, being a pacifist and having chosen not to learn more than basic self-defense.

Character Location: Titan's Tower
Alignment: Hero
Team: Teen Titans
Relatives: Joseph William Wilson (Father, Alive), Raven Wilson (Mother, Alive)

Backstory:
Although Raven and Jericho were strictly platonic friends from the beginning, they both eventually found themselves more emotionally attracted to one another in the long run. They ended up marrying after discovering, without a doubt, that they truly loved one another. After marrying, Raven gave birth to a son, Robert Cole Wilson. He was raised alongside the other children of the Teen Titans, and eventually joined the new generation of the team as a supporting medic on and off of the field.

How do you plan to introduce the character to the game? I plan to introduce him as already being a member of the Teen Titans, but having returned from a family vacation.
What are you planning to do with this character? I'm planning to use him as support for the Teen Titans. I've never really had a character like this before.
What do you want to see happen with this character? I want to see him develop some pretty unique relationships with his team, but I also want to see him branch out and meet with some of the more magical characters in the game. He's not magical himself, but magic characters deal more with demonic things. He'd do well to meet them.
