DESCRIPTION

Age: Born January 1st 2000
Gender: Male
Ethnicity: Caucasian

Height: 5’9’’
Weight: 170 lbs.
Eyes: Black
Hair: Black

Rex has an average build, not being in a particularly good or bad shape, standing at 5'9'' and weighing 170 lbs. He has short black hair and black eyes, and he is usually clean shaven. He tends to dress casually, though often favoring bomber jackets and, when in the lab, wearing lab coats.

While in the field, Rex wears his own custom Atom Academy uniform. The uniform is primarily black, with blue panels on the chest leading from the shoulders to the waist on the front and shoulderpads kept in place with white straps. The sleeves end in white straps, and Rex wears fingerless black gloves and a white belt with pouches. The pants feature black panels on the outside of the legs similar to the panels on Rex's chest, and black boots that end in white straps similar to those that end his sleeves. Glowing pink powerlines on his chest, arms and legs glow whenever he activates his powers. He has a small glowing Atom symbol on his left chest over his heart. Like the powerlines, it glows when Rex uses his powers.

HISTORY

Everyone knows the story of the Atom Family. The patriarch Dr. Alexander Atom met his wife Anne after World War Two, they fell in love through her aggressive pursuit, and they eventually became the proud parents of the brilliant Andrea Atom and took in the few years older Jack Wolf. Andrea would in turn marry Mentac, exiled prince of Farside City, before their disappearence during the 1992 Omega invasion. Their children Maximus, Tesla, Victoria and Chase would become famous as the Atom Family during the 1990'es, each a mutant with extraordinary powers, guided and helped by Jack Wolf and an AI recreation of their grandfather, and they would eventually establish the Atom Academy in 2020.

But before Anne, there was Marie Vaulaire, a French resistance fighter that Dr. Atom met and fell in love with during World War Two. The two shared the kind of intense and passionate romance that could only happen during the war, however brief it was. Marie Vaulaire's death fighting the against the Nazi occupation of her home led to her death, and Dr. Atom was left a broken man, spending a decade engrossed in his work until he fell in love with Anne.

Dr. Atom never learned that Marie had given birth to a healthy baby boy half a year before her death. Her time her son Alain was shortlived, but he was raised in a loving home by Marie's sister Sophie, who never learned the identity of Alain's father. Alain was always a bright young man, and he would eventually become a professor at The Université de Lyon, where he met his future wife Jeanette Blanchet. In 1968, their son Roy was born. Roy found a passion for engineering, proving to be a prodigy. He would eventually leave France and move to Chicago in the United States, where het met Sarah Wilson in 1993. They married in 1996, and, at the stroke of midnight, as the clock passed from 1999 to the year 2000, their son Rex was born.

Growing up, Rex Vaulaire soon showed that his genius outshone both his grandfather and father. He was, to put it bluntly, a genius, and he quickly accelerated through High School and college at a young age. Never the most social person in the world, prefering his own work and research, Rex was nonetheless part of a dedicated group of friends, and never had any social issues. Both Roy and Sarah did all they could to nurture and help Rex, providing what they could for him.

Everything was fine as Rex discovered a potential new energy source, one that could potentially power the world, and he dedicated himself to this source. An accident in Rex's laboratory led to his body being infused with the energy source, triggering a Meta Crisis that caused his body to grow to gigantic proportions, continuously growing and growing. Losing control of himself, Rex accidentally destroyed several buildings as he tried to steer himself away from populated areas. The Atom Family was called in, and, with their help, Rex was able stabilize the energy and return to normal size. When the Atom Family brought him to Atom Tower to create a long-term solution, scans and tests done would eventually reveal the identity of Rex's unknown great-grandfather, much to the surprise of both Rex and the Atom Family. Rex and his parents were welcomed into the Atom Family with open arms, and Rex moved from Chicago to Atom Tower in Freedom City in an effort to connect with his newly discovered family and master his new powers.

Inspired by the secret history that led to his grandfather's birth and eventually to himself, Rex has dedicated himself to leading a small group of Atom Academy members to explore the secrets and wonders of the world.

PERSONALITY & MOTIVATION

Rex is a proud, curious and sometimes arrogant individual. Seeing himself as a scientist first and a super hero second, he is more driven by a hunger for knowledge and progress than to be a hero. Rex rarely takes the time to socialize and can seem distant, preferring to focus on the missions than interpersonal relationships.

He is still in awe at being part of the Atom Family and is still coming to grips with what it means to essentially be the illegitimate scion of super hero royalty, and how he fits into the larger world, which in turn feeds his passion for making new discoveries and exploring the world and its secret pasts. Despite the assurances from the rest of the Atom Family, Rex feels like he has something to prove to the world.

POWER DESCRIPTIONS

The extradimensional energies that infuses Rex's body allows him to manipulate his own size, theoretically without any limit, though past experiences and the destruction that he caused means that Rex is scared to grow too much, in case he loses control again. While at regular size, Rex can also infuse these energies into just about anything else, making his target grow or shrink. Rex carries a large number of shrunken down items in his pouches, allowing him to bring out just about anything he needs.

To properly control the energy that allows him to adjust the size of himself and others, Rex's wears costume and his regular clothes incorporates what he has dubbed Size Shift Technology woven into the fabric.

To compliment his abilities and powers, Rex uses a variety of technology developed at the Atom Academy, made by both himself and others, including an Universal Translator, a power Communicator that allows him to access computers and machines, goggles that grant him enhanced vision options, a local gravitational distortion that allows him to perform incredible leaps and otherwise locally negate gravity, as well as a highly advanced self-mapping GPS. Only some of these devices work when Rex changes his size, as the radiation interferes with ttheir use, or Rex risks breaking them if he causes their size to shift.

COMPLICATIONS

Big Man on Campus: Rex's size shifting can cause him issues. Get too big and he might end up in the ceiling, get too small, and he might be stepped on or go unnoticed when he wants to be. The GM can rewards Rex with a Hero Point if changing size or being at the wrong size hinders him in some way.

Curiosity Killed the Atom: Rex is a curious individual, and his latest obsession seems to be the secret history of the world that he himself turned out to be part of. The GM can award Rex a Hero Point if his curiosity and drive to find out more makes a situation worse.

Pride Goes Before The Fall: Rex is proud of what he can do, and he does not take hits to that pride easily, whether someone points out mistakes he has made, such as the experiment that gave him his powers, or just proves him wrong. The GM can reward Rex with a hero Point if his negative reaction due to his pride makes a situation worse.

Secret Atom: As a so far unknown member of Atom Family, Rex's place in the world is unsure, both to himself and others. The GM can reward Rex with a Hero Point if his position as a member of the Atom Family hinders him, such as old Atom Family members being hostile or attacking, or others believing that he is faking being a member of the Atom Family.

Unstable: The extradimensional energies that empower Rex are unstable. While he can use his powers without the Size Shift Technology woven into his uniform and clothes, the effects will be unpredictable at best, and dangerous at worst. The GM can deem that Rex's Size Shift Technology is damaged, choosing an alternate effect when he tries to either Morph or use a power in the Size Shift array, giving him a Hero Point in return.

Rex Atom - Going Small!

Effective Power Level: 10

Power Points: 180/180PP
Unspent Power Points: 0
Trade-Offs: Varies with size

POWERS & TACTICS

Rex is able to shrink, attaining a variety of sizes along the way, everything between his normal height and microscopic size. As his mass and size decreases, his reaction speed increases and while he becomes easier to hurt, he becomes far harder to actually hit or even notice. At his smallest size, he can even decrease to Atomic Size and enter the Microverse that lies below reality.

At his reduced size, Rex becomes able to harness the energy that empowers him in various ways, such as flight and energy blasts, which can be directed into blasts that cause pain, a sort of telekinesis that can be used to move objects or knock down targets, or even a large burst that stuns everyone in his vicinity. The smaller Rex becomes, the weaker these abilities become, though his small size makes it almost impossible for him to miss.

Much of Rex's Atom Academy technology cannot be used at his reduced size, and the signal of his communicator and it's effectivity is greatly reduced, leaving him only able to access his communicator, the radio vision goggles and his auto-mapping GPS.
