Name: Niccolai "Nico" Argunov
Age: 16
Grade: 10th
Birthdate: August 28th
Race: Meta-human
Sex: Male
Orientation: Straight
Country: Russia
Appearance: Noticeably short, not quite reaching five feet in height, with messy black hair, hazel eyes, and a pale complexion. He generally walks with good posture when not engaged in combat, and wears plain clothes, usually a tucked-in polo shirt and belted jeans. He also wears round-lensed sunglasses, a leather jacket, steel-toed army boots, and a pair of fingerless gloves.

Personality: Quiet and stoic, disciplined, even unflappable. This often makes Niccolai seem arrogant, although this is far from true. He is very bookish, and highly interested in both mechanics and nature. He simply has rather poor social skills, although he is still good with words--he just doesn't get out much.
Powers: "G-probes" - This is the nickname that Niccolai gives to his power: the ability to turn tiny fragments of his own body into miniscule flying probes, controlled with his mind. These probes are somewhat adhesive and will stick to most surfaces, but light enough that a person usually will not notice if only a few are attached to them. By attaching the G-probes to objects or people, or spreading them across an area, Niccolai can alter gravitational fields, achieving a more drastic effect based on how many probes are used. One probe's effect is barely noticeable, but with five, he can effectively immobilize a normal-sized person, with the magnitude of effects increasing as the number of probes does. This is all Niccolai can do with the G-probes presently, but he practices often in the hopes of developing other probe abilities. Because the probes are a party of Niccolai's body, they cannot be more than a mile away from him at any time. If this occurs, the probes in question immediately return to his body. In addition, Niccolai must be conscious in order to use the probes, or they lose their potency. If he falls asleep or is knocked unconscious, all probes immediately return to his body.
Skills: Niccolai is very good with mechanical devices, and loves taking them apart and tinkering with them. He is equally knowledgeable concerning the outdoors, such as handling animals, tracking, and recognizing plants. As far as combat, Niccolai is skilled in many martial arts, especially drunken boxing--although he practices it completely sober, losing some of its surprising nature but tempering it with reason. This is made all the more dangerous by the fact that he is ambidextrous and can therefore attack or defend equally well with either hand.
History: Originally, Niccolai attended an underground experimental military academy for meta-humans, located in Siberia. The academy wasn't a terribly comfortable place, and lack of government funding made it even less comfortable, but Niccolai was happy there--he had no need to hide his abnormal nature from the closed-minded masses, and had all the access to machines to study that he could ever want. Hope for respite came in 2016, when Niccolai was thirteen years old, but the subsequent murder of Sarah Kent shattered his dreams as the academy was forced to shut down.
After three years of living at home, hiding away from prying eyes and suspicious visitors, Niccolai grew restless. He heard news of Kosaka Academy's opening, and after much debate, convinced his parents to send him there for his own safety. Before he knew it, the time had come to leave, and with a hopeful heart, he bid farewell to the Motherland.
