[Name] - Luis Raul Capablanca [Alias/Code Name] - Perfect Blue [Age] - 18 [Affiliation/Occupation] - X-men - Superhero! [Ethnicity/Nationality] - Chilean; Legal resident of the United States on a student Visa [Criminal Record] - None [Height] - 5'9" [Weight] - 135 lbs [Appearance] - Dark eyes, pale skin, angular features, and hair dyed a rather vibrant shade of blue - Luis is not flashy or standoffish, but he does subtley (and perhaps subconsciously) demand some attention with his appearance. A picture of blank innocence and childhood naivete, he tends to wear his every emotion on his sleeve. He often appears slightly spaced out, like someone on really good dope - and his excruciatingly formal but always somehow unkempt manner of dress adds significantly to the picture. [Personality] - Luis doesn't just look naive. For all his genius (and he has a lot of genius to go around), he doesn't particularly understand the world around him. He may grasp that there are crackwhores in the alleys, he may fully understand the socio-economic circumstances that put them there - but he's still the little boy who asks why. Often plagued by mood swings, Luis is extremely emotional at his best and easily put off by other people. He dislikes violence and politics, considering the former an invariable side effect of the latter, and believes strongly that the world is on a course for self-destruction. Also notable, Luis is as naive about sex as they come. Yep, he understands the human reproductive system, he just hasn't quite connected it to humans yet. [Mutant Class] - Theta [Power Level] - 7 [Powers] - Superintelligence? Luis' cerebrum and cerebellum are developed well beyond the capacity of a human. With an IQ estimated at 955, and his brain continuing to evolve at a rather unprecedented rate, Luis seems destined for greatness or suicide - the two invariable ends to a genius. Yes, Luis is brilliant. That brilliance means that he learns extremely quickly (at eighteen he already has two Ph.D.'s, an M.A., a B.A., and an M.B.A), he is capable of crunching numbers faster than any known computer system, his deductive reasoning often borders on the precognitive, and he is nigh-unbeatable at chess. In fact, his chosen alias - Perfect Blue - is a play on the name Deep Blue, the chess computer that defeated champion Garry Kasparov (though Kasparov, and Luis, maintain that IBM cheated in the match). While not immune to telepathy by any means, the exceptional mental faculty makes him significantly more resilient to psychic attacks than the average man. [Weaknesses/Limitations] - Luis is completely normal aside from the brainpower. No super strength or speed or defenses. He's smart, and he can be counted on to find the best possible option in just about any scenario, but that doesnt mean he can make something out of nothing. There really are no good options when cornered by an angry pyrokinetic, after all. [Skills] - First, Luis' science background. Recall the afforementioned degrees (two Ph.D.s, an M.A., and a B.A.) - these are, respectively, in Engineering, Endobiology, Physics/Quantum Mechanics, and Organic Chemistry. Though he doesn't have degrees, he has a knowledge and understanding comparable to a top-class graduate student in economics, genetics, botany, zoology, statistics, sociology, and political science. And here we see Luis' purpose to the X-men: research and development. As an inventor, Luis is difficult to match, the extensive education and acute brilliance giving him an easy leg up. He has only just taken the job, but given his funding and his own resources, he has a number of ideas that are sure to prove useful fairly shortly. Additionally, Luis is a masterful chess player - by FIDE ratings, Luis has an Elo score of 5251. He has never lost a match. [Possessions] - (Including wealth and property; but we dont need to know about every pair of shoes or stick of lip gloss) [History] - Edited by Fox Confessor, Feb 9 2008, 12:24 PM.
