Character Name: Leonard "Lenny" Macdowell

Character LJ (if applicable): hope-on-wheels

Physical description (face, build, weight): 5'8", Tall when standing, though has to use a wheelchair when not actively using his powers. Black hair, tinged blue when empowered. Thin almost to the point of scrawny.

Age: 23

Birthday: 5/28/88

Codename (if using one): Topaz

PB: (If using one.) Kevin McHale

Abilities: Has the ability to heal the injuries of those he focuses his powers upon. This works to a lesser extent on diseases. Has the ability to dissipate negative emotions around him, though he must expend his power in direct proportion to the emotion of those he tries to calm. He has an extensive knowledge of medicine from his years of study before his accident, though it has atrophied over time.

Weaknesses and flaws: He cannot walk under his own power without using Adara's powers directly. If he does not, he requires other means to move. When attempting to calm someone, if the emotion of the recipient is too much for him to handle, he could pass out from the effort.  When using his powers he is blue-skinned, making him far more noticeable.

Character location/Home: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Alignment (villain, hero etc): Hero

Team: New Guardians

Relatives (living/dead?): Tracey MacDowell (mother, alive), Jarrett MacDowell (father, alive)

Backstory: Growing up, Leonard wanted to follow in his father's footsteps and become a doctor. However, during the latter half of his senior year, he was hit by a drunk driver, rendering his legs useless. He developed a sense of melancholy afterwards and abandoned his dream of becoming a doctor. Eventually the driver was aught before he could hurt anyone else. This instilled a belief in Lenny that even though the world often sucks, eventually things will be okay, giving him a sense of hope again that he may one day be able to properly carry on with his dream.

How do you plan to introduce the character to the game?: Amara bonds with him, bringing him into the plot of the New Guardians.

What are you planning to do with this character? He becomes a New Guardian, though more as a support member as he's not a violent guy.

What do you want to see happen with this character?: He eventually grows to accept his role and tries to be open with his hopes rather than hide them behind a general cynicism.
