Adam

An incredibly curious but equally nervous Mew, Adam has lived s very far but very accelerated life, being born through genetic engineering and being taught by various experts on language, history, and culture...for a time. Unplanned experiments by an interested third party led to the creation of something dreadful, which Adam wants nothing to do with. Following the last advice from his mother, he’s fled to Peregrine from another world, in the hopes of experiencing what life may yet have to offer...

Appearance
Adam’s normal appearance, while foreign to most living in Peregrine, is recognizable as a Mewtwo, with mildly purpler skin. As a Mew, Adam has lavender-colored fur, with a small tuft of fluff sticking up from his head, and has deep, cerulean eyes. His tail’s a bit on the short side, though.

Attire
Adam wears a rather ragged, dull brown cloak around his body, which comes down low around his legs. He hasn’t exactly put much thought into his fashion, but he’s hoping to upgrade from rags.

Personality
Adam is a rather curious fellow, eager to learn and patient when it comes to learning. He’s usually calm and composed on the surface, but inside his quietness is due to an innate fear of talking to others, not wanting to compromise himself to someone who might be looking to hurt him for what he is. When he does start talking to people he’s a whirlwind of emotion, often talking faster than he can think and ultimately unable to choose his words as carefully as he’d wish (If at all). He also finds it very hard to experience anger...

Drives and Obstacles
Goal(s): Live a quiet life, find others like his mother

Motivations: His mother’s desire for him to live his own life in safety, and the curiosity about his kind

Obstacles: He has...conflicting feelings on whether or not he wants to do something about the cloned creature in a more direct way, which is...something he knows his mother wanted him to stay away from.

Affiliations

 * The Fun Gang!: Probably the least threatening gang in Peregrine, though if the Jojo posed they might intimidate a few people. They’re mostly just a TAZ listening group, and in due time a Persona-playing group, so all in all a group of friends that are decidedly NOT committing crime.

Romance

 * He’s. 2 years old.

Family

 * Sophia: One of many names that Adam’s mother likely went under, and the one that she was known by while working under the New Life project. Adam never learned her last name, and coming by information has been hard for him, but he cherishes those memories of his kind, caring mother...


 * Researchers: A number of people hired to work on the New Life project, of varying degrees and specialties. While he wasn’t biologically related to them, he considered them just as important to his life...Though he’s had a tough time putting them out of his mind with the uncertainty of whether some of them remained alive, or if a few of them didn’t have a hand in Mewtwo’s creation...


 * Xeno the Mew: ...Neither of them actually know if they’re biologically related to eachother, and both of them would be very apprehensive to go for DNA testing to prove it. But for what it’s worth, Adam looks up to Xeno like an uncle, even though he’s fairly sure he’s the mature one of the two.

Friends and Foes
Friends:
 * Nigel Lykenthro: One of the first few people Adam met while staying in Peregrine, the two have shown a mutual interest in both being emo AND standing on roofs. Truly, the perfect combo.
 * Lulu: Someone Adam has spent quite a fair amount of time with through the Fun Gang, and the person he considers himself closest with in Peregrine. They’re fiercely assured in keeping him safe, and Adam intends to return the favor, should the need arise.
 * Koopario Kruise: A reserved mini-Tortle(?) whom Adam got to know a bit through the Fun Gang. He seems kind of nice, though the two haven’t spent much time together...
 * Quezal Cotella: A super-whirlwind of concern, friendship, and ice cream brought these two on a rather sudden acquaintenceship, which...well, time will tell if these two spend more time together.

Allies:
 * Murphy Enzares: While he does trust the Blaziken/Elder God duo with his life, he doesn’t consider himself on that friendly terms with the old men. Like, they make pleasant conversation, though Adam sees him more as a Tour Guide or maybe even a wisened mentor more than ‘A dude you go to the arcades and chill with’.

Frenemies:
 * He only makes these if conversation gets REALLY awkward. Hasn’t happened, yet.

Enemies:
 * Mysterious Researchers: Sometime after his birth, a few other researchers were appointed to the New Life project that spawned the creation of Adam, under the direct supervision of both the government and interested military powers. Adam only has one name to tie to the results of Mewtwo, and...the closest things that could be considered his remains were found among the smoldering ruins. But then, just how many others would want to create something like that, and want him for it?


 * Mewtwo: ...Even if that thing shares the same kind of energy that Adam does, it is NOTHING like him. He could tell even from a glance what kind of ruthless creature it was...and he’s not sure it’s something he’d ever want to face. Even if it did take his mother from him...

Acquired/Learned Abilities

 * Super Telekinesis: As a psychic, Adam is able to lift himself up into the air, though at a hefty 260 lbs. usually, this is quite an effort. That said, Adam has endlessly practiced lifting himself up into the air. As a result, he’s able to lift up his entire body weight into the air, able to almost effortlessly lift himself a few inches off the ground to float around. His speed while doing so is a bit slow, though, and he can’t get any higher without a large degree of concentration.


 * Psychic: While he wants to live peacefully, Adam HAS been practicing on and off how to defend himself mentally should he be assaulted, and has a weak-ish Psychic for cases such as these. The target much roll an INT save, and on a fail takes 2d6 Psychic damage.

Skills

 * Telepathy: Adam is able to telepathically communicate with any creature within a 30ft. radius.


 * Transform: Much like Xeno, Adam is able to transform his body into any shape or size he wishes to, given he is able to focus his mind and body. However, it’s not something that he’s accustomed to doing much, and has a lot of trouble adapting to any form that isn’t his Mew or Mewtwo form.


 * Teleport: Using a bit of focus, Adam is able to teleport himself and one other about 30-50 ft. away.


 * Psychic Empathy: While it’s nowhere near as practiced as Xeno’s, Adam can sense other people’s feelings and...sometimes act on them to help in conversation. Sometimes.


 * General Skills: Having been raised by a number of tutors, Adam has a general knowledge of s number of topics. He has advantage on Animal Handling, Nature, History, Medicine, and Insight.

Weaknesses

 * This is a Bit New To Me: ...That said, the history Adam learned is decidedly NOT that of Terra’s. He has disadvantage on any history roll associated with it.

Key Items

 * None:

Weapons

 * None:

Other Equipment

 * World 21 Smartphone Ver. 6: He also has a rock. He wishes Xeno would dial him up on this and not his mind more often...

Inventory

 * None: Adam likes traveling light.

Biography
Once upon a time, there lived a creature called a Mew. This Mew lived in harmony with humanity, though the Mew always has a fascination with the creation of life. But, alas, she was unable to ever find a mate. She lived as a human for some time, working as a researcher to find some way of giving birth to life...and with the aid of a team of specialists, she was able to give that life.

On February 6th, 2016, after much genetic research and engineering in their part, Adam was born. He was always something of a quick learner, and with the help of the experts that were hired to guide and take care of him, in addition to his own mother, he considered himself under the care of an extended family...and he had only love to give them.

However, the project has attracted attention from the military, and with the addition of a few questionable staff changes, the project was unsuspectingly changed under mother and son’s nose, integral data and genetic material being smuggled into another branch of the facility where the team of scientists had been taking occupation.

And then...it happened. A little over a full year after his birth, the unnamed creature henceforth dubbed ‘Mewtwo’ escaped from his containment tube, slaughtering the one Scientist most involved in his creation...and went about destroying the place, leaving a fire in his wake. Adam’s mother teleported a number of personnel away, Adam included, but not before telling Adam to run...and to live...she hasn’t been seen since. But...before being teleported away, Adam got a very good look at the creature in question...and something in him resonated...’I don’t want to be weak. I want to be strong, like that thing...but not like that thing...’

Adam has gone to wandering the wilds for a time, in a shifted Mewtwo form, though not before Murphy had gotten a whiff of him after hearing of several rumours regarding a fire and a strange creature escaping. He mistaked Adam for the creature, at first, though decided that he was no immediate danger. Adam wanted but two things: To live on in peace, and to find others like him and his mother. Murphy figured he could help him with both, and hastily gave him a solution: to bring him to Peregrine under his and Gaspar’s protection, and wherein he could find the other he sent under his protection there, Xeno. He accepted.

From then on, Adam has been mostly lurking on the sidelines, taking on his life one day at a time. He did eventually meet up with Xeno and made friends with him and a few others, though the two Mews both agree circumstances could have gone so much better...All Adam can do now is sit and pray that his mother is safe and alive...
