Age: 24
Outfit and equipment: All Michael has is his set of gauntlets (see below), a light brown coat over a black shirt and pants that he was given as part of his clothes while at OKARI.
Weapon: Michael uses a custom pair of gauntlets - based partially on the H.A.V.O.C. prototype, but slightly modified in order to make them somewhat more useful in combat situations - made of composite titanium plating. A set of two double bladed knives are mounted on a miniscule rotor, which allows Michael to accelerate (turning the knives into spinning discs) and launch the knives. Since he is capable of controlling magnetic objects, Michael can control the trajectory of the knives, allowing him to fight at range if he needs to.
In addition, just about any magnetic object can be turned into a crude weapon by simply levitating it and hurling it at his target.
Faction: Beta
Power: Electromagnetic Control - Michael can manipulate electromagnetic fields with some degree of control. At his current level, he is capable of controlling ferromagnetic and some paramagnetic metals, but he hasn't taken his powers to extremes to demonstrate feats of extreme strength. Diamagnetic metals are somewhat more difficult to control, but they are still within his grasp. However, controlling both diamagnetic and paramagnetic/ferromagnetic materials are something of a difficulty for him.
Right now, his most advanced, controllable technique is creating a small-scale EMP in the shape of a ten-foot sphere.
Animal: Peregrine Falcon
(*Beta only) Imperfection: Michael has a completely irrational fear of heights, causing him to freak out if he goes any higher than 10 feet above ground. Unfortunately for OKARI, the only attempt to weaponize this fear resulted in all nearby machinery in the vicinity being short-circuited. While some OKARI officials wanted to further exploit his fear, they concluded that constant destruction of OKARI property would be an incredibly costly expenditure, and may not yield the benefits that they would like.
Background: Michael grew up in Dresden, leading a fairly normal life as the only son of an accountant. There wasn't anything particularly exciting about his life, which went along as expected for a fairly average kid in Dresden. Michael graduated from the Dresden University of Applied Sciences two years ago, studying biochemistry and physics (granted, this was his minor, and he wasn't particularly too great at it) while he was there. Of course, once he finished with his degree, Michael applied to work at Krigaren, hoping that the looming war might provide him with a job opening. Unfortunately, that was where everything went to hell...
Personality: Michael is more of an academic than anything, so as a general rule, he's going to somewhat strict analytic approach, more than anything. Other than that, Michael is a fairly decent person, with a goal of getting back at OKARI without pulling as many people in as possible. Despite his sense of morality, he's not going to shove his own beliefs down others' throats, and he'll leave He's also incredibly suspicious of most figures in positions of authority, which naturally does not help the fact that OKARI plans on using him as a soldier.
Involvement with OKARI: Michael was experimented upon by OKARI shortly after accepting a job at Krigaren. Turns out that OKARI really just wanted a test subject.
