Description

"I don't want anything from these abilities! I want a goddamn life I couldn't have three years ago!"
-Travis Friedman
Name: Travis Abbot Friedman
Gender: Male
Age: 22
[NOTE: these powers are what has been done so far in the roleplay in the past or future.]
Powers: Advanced Telepathy- Travis is one of the most powerful telepaths in his time, rivaling the powerful telepathic scales of Matt and even Arthur. He could shut out anyone from his mind or reveal his thoughts to those he chose. He is a master of the human mind and it's instructions. He can illusion himself from some while remain in sight to some he chose. He can flood other people's minds with thoughts, causing the victim to be very distracted,and he can also cause severe migraines in this way. He can give or take memories, and can control some people for extremely large amounts of time. This is one of his primary defense methods.

One of the most advanced techniques he used however was a unique way of using telepathy, remains a mystery to most specials today. Travis, by some restrictions could send telepathic visions in the form of dreams to his past self, and his past friends through time. How this was done was a big mystery. The Theory behind this was the fact that his mind had evolved rather fast and had developed a very minor sense of time travel. He could not teleport through time, but rather communicate through time, however he could only communicate to his closest friends and his past self.

Friedman's Water Ability- Advanced Hydrokinesis His most famous ability undoubtedly, is his numerous abilities that involve water.

Travis was born with physically evolved lungs, which could take in oxygen inside and outside of water, meaning he could survive in both environments for an unlimited amount of time. He used his ability to breath underwater a lot when he wished to remain in isolation, or when sneaking into enemy buildings using the water pipes or sewers. Because this ability was not of the brain, it could not be mimicked, or taken by other people.

Travis has many abilities with water, including purification (the ability to purify any water he was in), enhanced strength, movement, and senses (while in the water, Travis moves faster, hears better, sees better, grows stronger, and perhaps even speaks better while underwater), and other abilities.

One of the main abilities with the water was the abilities to generate, and control water's movements, and it's properties. Travis could generate an unlimited amount of water (depending on how strong he was). He could generate it in a variety of methods, like a raging torrent, or a simple stream. While controling the water, he could freeze or boil the water simpy by thinking. He used this numerous times in combat. However one of the more famous ways he'd control it, was when he was close to large bodies of water, mainly the oceans. He could make waves of unbelievable size and of unbelievable strength.

Travis' emotions seemed to tie into his ability to control water. When suffering, angry, or anything related, water around him would react. Any water around him would react violently, causing waves, or splashing. A famous example of this was when Boston was destroyed by a huge tsunami he created when Arthur killed Krystina.

Other water related abilities included the control of the plasma found in human blood, which he rarely used, creation of rain, acid rain, and other abilities.


Picture: Image Somewhat what he looks like, not as buff and with a different shirt on.


Appearance: He is about 6'4'', and weighs about 180. He had buzzed short dirty blond hair, and shaved facial hair. His eyes were deep blue. He wears torn blue jean shorts, and a shirt usually with a band logo (mainly Metallica, Megadeth, or Pantera). He wears worn out tennis shoes, He also wears a ring that was given to him by his girlfriend when he was about 15 or 16.

Personality: Travis' personality was that of mystery and constant change. When he first discovered his abilities, he became fearful and afraid of the human race. He isolated himself from all contact and rarely came out of hiding. However upon meeting people like himself, he became more of a social person. He never wants to be that much of a hero, and still fears the human race to an extent. He fears that if too many people find out about his abilities, they will start to look on him like they would Superman. He wants nothing to do with it. Finally after his wife's death, he became solem, and silent. He was a man of deep hatred and anger.


History:

Born November 11th, 1987, to Isabelle and Robert Friedman in Seattle, Washinton, he was one in a happy family. His mother died of cancer when he was around the age of 10, and after that, his father became an abusive alcoholic. Travis ran away from home around the age 11 or 12 and met his future wife, Krystina Jackson. He returned home and continued meeting with Krystina. At age 18, his abilities finally manifested, his father kicked him out of the apartment they lived in calling him a 'freak' and that was the last time Travis saw him. Robert died three years later of alcohol poisening.

Travis tried to talk to Krystina about his ability, but she became a bit fearful of him and ran away. Travis was heartbroken by this action and tried to drown himself in Puget Sound. However he had not been aware that his lungs were evolved as they were, and he could not drown. This began Travis' three years of isolation.

Three years later, Travis had learned a great deal of his abilities, but still not enough to control his telepathy. His telepathy was uncontrollable to him at his age, and he was known to have common telepathic outbursts.

One day Arthur Petrelli came and found Travis underneath dock 8, his home, and offered to help Travis. Travis, uncomfortable with the man and his ways of help (since they involved time travel) did not accept his help and refused him. Travis however that day could not shake the fact that he needed to find help in controlling his abilities. He and Krystina had met earlier that day and had talked over. Travis and Krystina became on good terms again and vowed to see each other once again. Travis that day sneaked onto a cargo ship bound for New York City to look for one who could help him.

In New York, he ran into Peter Petrelli, learned about Arthur's true nature, and found one of his first friends. Travis helped Peter free his brother Nathan, and Peter helped him control his abilities. Peter's help triggered Travis' full control he would have ten years to come.
He studied himself and discovered how his powers worked and how his body functioned.

And to date, Travis Friedman is the only known human to have lungs that function as they do.

Travis became a big part of bringing down Arthur Petrelli as his powers grew even more. Travis grew even more in friendship size with a man known as Jamie Taylor. The two would form a huge friendship and bond and would soon call themselves brothers. The two played big roles in bringing Arthur down. In 2010, Arthur disappeared, and Travis and Krystina were married near the end of the year. Shortly before however, Peter had given Travis the message "Save the Waitress, save the world." to him. Travis ignored it, which would prove later to be costly.

Travis and Krystina originally would have had their first child in 2012, but due to an unfortunate miscarriage, could not give birth then.

In 2017, Travis' life saw it's biggest challenge. Arthur rose to full power. Travis fearing his family's life, tried to convince Krystina to leave with him away from their home which was in the City of Boston. Krystina, said Travis should become a part of the resistance that was about to form, and Travis refused. Three days later, Arthur kidnapped Krystina, and Jamie's wife, Cindy. Travis and Jamie immediatly went to Boston where they were being held.

Jamie and Cindy were killed at the docks. Cindy was about six monthes pregnant. Travis and Krystina were abducted. After a harsh argument, Arthur killed Krystina, and imprisoned Travis. Shortly before however, Travis' emotions at losing his wife, created the biggest tsunami humanity had ever encountered, and it destroyed Boston. Less than 5% of the population survived.

For three years, Travis was kept a prisoner, but those years were not slow for Travis. He trained himself to overcome Arthur's power jammers and he began to send telepathic visions to his past friends and his past self of what the future held. He was broken out of his prison by his friends Abigale (aka Jessica Spayde) and Emmet. Travis rejoined the resistance. And after some very weird encounters from the land of the 'beyond', he sent a few more visions and went back in time to warn Peter about his foolishness of ignoring the message.

While in the past, Arthur Petrelli, attacked the hideout of the resistance. Travis when he returned to the future, helped a man named Magix in taking down Arthur. Travis entered a vortex of shadow, created by Magix and as Magix distracted Arthur, Travis forced a liquid form of the Shanti Virus down Arthur's throat. Travis however was weakened greatly in the vortex, due to a lack of oxygen, and a small exposure to the shanti virus. Magix, enclosed Arthur in a void of shadows, and teleported Travis out of the vortex. Magix's fate would be unknown to Travis.

Travis, out of the shadow was in a very critical state. His right lung was collapsed, and his breathing was shallow. His friends however, respectful of his wishes, let him die, and he died on July 20th 2020.

In accordance to Travis' wishes written in a letter, he had is wedding rings buried at Krystina's burial. Travis' body through strict instructions, was not buried. Travis' body was either to be cremated or dropped in the Pacific ocean in an area known as the Marianas Trench, to prevent people like Arthur or Sylar from taking his abilities.

Travis' visions were not sent in vain. Peter soon discovered that he had to save a special that was in extreme danger from another special in Seattle. Travis helped Peter on this mission, having a strong desire to go to Seattle himself, due to a number of mysterious activity concerning earthquakes and volcanic activity.

Travis currently is on Mt. Rainier in a battle with one of his newest arch rivals. Jonathan Araya.

"I swear to you, you, your company, your whole goddamn race will pay for what you have done to me! I swear, that your betrayal will come back to bite humanity in the ass ten fold. And there's nothing you can do to stop it. Not the virus, not ice, not all the advanced specials in the world can stop me. My hatred will burn this world...very soon!"
-Jonathan Araya speaking to Anna Mariah, moments before killing her
Name: Jonathan Kerry Araya
Gender: Male
Age: 21
Powers:
Jonathan's Ability: Volcanikinesis
Jonathan's ability, branches out into several mini abilities. Jonathan has an ability that is connected with earthquake and volcanic activity. It is not Terrakinesis, because unlike weilders of Terrakinesis, Jon can only control pure earth. He cannot control man made material earth (like cement and concrete). However he can still control the earth underneath streets and so that little floop really isn't a big deal.
Jon can control, manipulate, and generate molten lava. It takes great focus to do this, and even more focus to make it as deadly as one would think, so he usually, while in combat, produces a 'watered down' version of it. THough he is fully capable of generating very deadly lava.

His abilities have given his body very good protection. His body can survive in molten material for an unlimited amount of time....only thing is he cannot breath in it, he must hold his breath when submerged. However the heat of the enviroment can give him pretty good time of holding his breath, and has held his breath for a good ten minutes sometimes. He can also separate molten lava, making a path for him. He can walk across the surface of lava without any effort. But when in molten material, his body suffers no burns, and stays intact. His body temperature is very high, and if you were to touch him, you may end up getting burned. Where he steps, he sometimes leaves behind ashes in his footsteps, and live embers. His body's skin, acts like rock. t is very dense and very durablle. He has been shot several times everywhere, and he suffered no wound. The skin melts the bullet, and it simply becomes a part of his body.

Company agents tried to kill Jon using lead bullets, but as the body melted the bullets, Jon still remained alive. It can be safely assumed Jon is immune to most poisening such as mercury, or lead.

His most violent uses of his abilities however are some that are very dangerous to man. He can spawn unbelievably strong earthquakes, and make breaches in the earth's crust, making volcanos, though they do not last, unless there is huge activity in the area. He can make any known volcano blow it's top with a little help from his abilities of lava.

Despite his great power, he has two very big weaknesses.
Jon cannot survive in deep water. His body's physical evolution has made him very dense to survive in lava, and he it almost like a rock in water. And if he does not act fast, he will drown.

However his biggest weakness is the cold. Since his body temperature is as hot as it is, being comprised with rock, cold temperatures will do serious harm to his body. His skin will become as hard as rock, and it becomes very difficult for him to move. However when faced with cold temperatures, he will usually open up a fissure and disappear beneath the earth's surface, where his body reheats and becomes mobile.

Appearance:

He is about 5'9'', and his weight is not really known. Approx is maybe 520. (he's not fat) His eyes are dark brown, and his hair is a dark brown. It is not long, shorter than Travis'.


Personality:
Jon's personality is a bit of a puzzle. Jon, has reasons for not liking the human race, and has reasons for not accepting any help from anyone at all. Jon is a serious loner, and if you try to help him you're only digging a deeper hole for yourself. Normally, he is a man of sarcasm. He has a very crude sense of humor, and very dull at times. He mocks people he faces, and insults their abilities. Jon, believe it or not is Christian in some areas of his life.


History:
Jonathan knows nothing of his past. He never knew his parents, and only knows his name due to a damaged birth certificate he once had. He remembers an orphanage on an island. Where he guesses he spent maybe the first 5 years of his life.
The orphanage was on an island country.
He remembers panic, and a rush to get away. He was left alone in the orphanage for a few days. Wondering where everybody had gone. The whole village itself seemed to have emptied.

On the fourth day it happened...

The ground shook, an explosion happened. Jonathan remembered looking behind him and seeing a mountain exploding. And it sent a huge wall of death at him. He tried to run, tried to escape, but his small body could not outrun the huge wall of death. It hit him in less than five minutes.

Normally, a person in this situation would suffer one of two things; Death by disintegration and evaporation, leaving only a charred skeleton behind, or Death by suffocation in extreme heat and ash.

His fate was neither. Jon's body took intense heat and started evolving, and he very soon realized, that the wall of death felt pretty good around him. He couldn't find the orphanage in the wall of death so he simply sat behind a rather sturdy boulder and took a short nap. However three days later, he awoke. He found himself in a wasteland. The once green plains were now gone and covered in layers of ash. The whole village was gone, and the mountain that had done all this had a huge crater in it now.

It was soon Jon would find out the true extent of his abilities. He became a man of solemn there, when he was barely five years old. He learned to live on his own, until he was about 12. Jonathan was discovered by a group of American tourists. They tried to comfort him, but upon contact, their hands suffered extreme burns. One hand even completely melted away from the body. Jonathan had killed 13 people in a course of just 3 weeks, all on accident, but it still got attention. Jonathan hid from humans as they came to investigate, but he could not hide from the Company, and was captured. He was kept prisoner for three years.

Jonathan at this time did not know the true extent of his abilities. Barely anyone came to see him in his chamber. Not Bob Bishops young daughter, not anyone. Finally, a woman named Anna Mariah, came in and visited him. She quickly gained his trust. She showed him the full extent of his abilities. Anna was evolved too, having the ability of telekinesis. Jonathan became an agent of the Company, for a short while afterward.

However when he was 18, one day, everything changed. While investigating something unnatural about a Seattle incident, concerning multiple cases of water pipes bursting (Travis Friedman), Anna and her squad froze Jonathan. They took him to a Company HQ in Washington near the base of Mt. Hood. There they ran multiple tests on his body which had evolved ever since the Eruption. Jonathan, still unaware what had happened, found himself talking to Anna, stating that the only reason he was accepted into the Company was so they could gain his trust and imprison him as they had. As the tests continued, Jonathan's rage finally conquered the ice prison.

The ice melted, and his rage burned. He destroyed the HQ, and killed Anna. He then deemed the Human race as a race that was not trustworthy and full of lies and deceit. He vowed to be it's destruction.

Jon began planning how he could make the human race see why he hated them so much, when he was about 19. He is still planning, but unsure when to act.
He knows there are others like himself, and doesn't care for them.
He has killed many specials, and destroyed their remains.
Currently, he lives in Washington, inside the crater of a volcano known as Mt. St. Helens.

In 2009, Jonathan traveled to Mt. Rainier, a dormant volcano near Seattle. Jon was to start his plan here. On Thanksgiving, he shook Seattle with a magnitude 7.8 earthquake, which almost completely destroyed the city, and made Mt. Rainier begin an eruption. However, Peter Petrelli, while he fought one of his biggest enemies, Travis Friedman, cooled the magma chamber, ceasing the eruption. Mt. Rainier would have killed hundreds had it fully erupted.

Jon left Travis saying the prevention of Rainier's eruption meant nothing. And that his plans would be carried out, and the world as they knew it, was over.

However, Peter had failed to save a waitress and this led Jon's plan astray. Jon disappeared as Arthur rose to full power in 2017. He remained off the charts as the resistance fought against Arthur. Jon was unaware of his enemy Friedman, dying in the war, and slowly learned to live on his own.

However, he was also unaware that Friedman had been changing the past as he was, and after Rainier was prevented, Peter was able to save a certain special, and the waitress was saved. This would eventually lead to Arthur's downfall. This allowed Jon's plan to be fully carried out at a time of his choosing.

Shortly after the Rainier eruption, Jonathan met a man by the name of Adam Monroe, and they formed a partnership. Jonathan put very little trust in Adam and assumed full leadership in his plans. Adam would provide him with information, in exchange for friendship and benefits that would not harm him in Jonathan's plan.

Though Jonathan believes his family to be dead, he does have one living relative. Jonathan is the cousin to Travis' girlfriend, Krystina Jackson. This will be explained later in the RP.

"Recently though, I've been getting strange feelings, each one unique. You have a feeling too Travis. Your feeling is a feeling I would cling to in my sleep like a stuffed animal."
-Krystina on her new found ability
Name: Krystina Irene Jackson
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Powers: Yin Yang Manipulation-
Krystina has Yin Yang Manipulation. At first, the power she was thought to have was lie detection, but further studies in her behavior confirmed otherwise. She has the ability to sense what lies within a person's heart or soul. She can see if they are good or bad in person. She can also influence them to turn otherwise.
As she can also detect positive and negative energy, she can tell truth from lies. This was the original misconception to why they thought she had lie detection.
The energy can be used as a concussive energy, but Krystina has never used it in such way, as she does not feel to have the power within her.
Appearance:
Krystina is short in character. Only at a height of about 5'2''. Her eyes are a blue shade, and her hair is light brown, and long. She wears blue jeans, tight around the legs, and a white tee-shirt.

Personality:
Krystina has a very unique personality. She gives off the vibe that she is one you can trust. She is easily trusted, and never leads anyone astray. She has a strong dislike for evil, but despite this, is very timid and is not a fighter. She hates combat, and has never used the aggressive form of her ability. With the help of her ability, she can easily tell what lies within a person's soul and heart. She can tell if a person is good or bad, but she can also influence people to go good or bad.


History:
Krystina Irene Jackson was born to Henry and Susan Jackson in Seattle Washington. She excelled in school, and made friends very easily. Although she was not popular, she was never talked bad about, or anything.

When she was ten, she met Travis Friedman, who had been saddened by the loss of his mother and had become victim to abuse by his father. Krystina and Travis would soon become very close to each other. Krystina's parents agreed to take Travis in as his father became what he was. However about three months in, Travis went back to live with his father, and continue his education. The abuse of his father didn't go away, but Travis did have a place to go now if he felt afraid.

The date Krystina's abilities manifested is not known, as it would seem she has had it the majority of her life. When she was 17, Travis Friedman's abilities manifested. They were forced to take a break as Travis gained control over his abilities., however they did not stop caring for each other, as they both knew that their bond was now too strong to be broken.

After Travis left for New York, a man named Arthur Petrelli broke into their apartment home and kidnapped Krystina, and erased her parents memories. Travis, two weeks later would break her out. It was then her abilities were made known to Travis and his new friends. She agreed to go to the school or program for them. Her parents, at first were very uncomfortable with this, but soon became comfortable with it, knowing Krystina could take care of herself.

Krystina at the school became close friends with Alexia Moore and Cindy Taylor. She and Cindy were especially close, as their boy friends were rather close to each other. The two spent a large amount of time together as Travis and Swiss were usually outside of school, on some errand.

One day, their absence proved fatal, as an enraged serial killer named Jessica Spayde, wounded Cindy and kidnapped Krystina. Jessica had a huge hatred for Travis Friedman, and knew about Krystina. Jessica held Krystina hostage for three days, until Travis came in furious at Jessica's actions. Travis managed to free Krystina, but not without suffering serious wounds to the chest and breaking his right arm.

In 2012, Travis and Krystina were married, and lived in Boston. They were to have their first child in late 2013, but due to a miscarriage, could not give birth. Krystina did not get pregnant again until 2016. Despite their hopes of keeping it secret, everyone knew ahead of time it seemed. Krystina and Travis' family became a part of the Taylor Family, and the Benson family.

However in 2017, Arthur rose to power. Travis and Krystina had a very heated argument, and ended up splitting up for a couple days. Arthur during this time, kidnapped Cindy and Krystina. He held them hostage. After Travis and Swiss arrived, an ugly scene unfolded. Cindy was shot and killed, followed shortly by Swiss.

Krystina and Travis were airlifted above Boston. After a very heated argument between Arthur and Travis, Arthur killed Krystina, ending her life. Krystina's body fell from the helicopter into Boston below. Travis in his anger and grief, destroyed Boston with a megatsunami, a good 2.2 kilometers high (the highest man has seen).

Though it was hard to find her body, her body was found drifting, and was buried in a cemetery nearby the ruins of the program, along with the bodies of Swiss, Cindy, and other specials that were killed in the following years.

However, a special was saved that prevented this future, and Krystina and Travis soon after escaping Jessica, went to Seattle, their home town due to several cases of weird extreme earthquakes and Mt. Rainier erupting. Krystina helped save a special by the name of Terry and is currently on an island with him, Travis, and a special named Lucifor.
