"Seems fishy to me..."
Weaknesses:
His hotheadedness usually ends up getting him into trouble. Or ignored.
Scared of any form of insect. If he encounters one he will probably hide behind the nearest person or large object.
Can easily get attached to people.
Personality:
Flint is generally easygoing, though he is often seen as grumpy because he is constantly frowning. He can be riled up quite easily, so it's hard for him to keep his cool in certain situations. His temper usually leads to him breaking things or hurting himself by accident. (i.e. kicking a wall and hurting his foot). If there is someone he actually likes he will stick to them like glue, and is very protective over them - especially if they are younger than he is.
Mutations:
He is often extremely thirsty and constantly feels as though his skin is drying out. He also gets severe pain in his legs constantly. His skin has started to pale, and his hands, forearms and lower body look as though being dyed an inky black.
Mutations in the future :
Eventually, Flint's lower body will mutate enough that his legs disappear into a mass of tentacles from the waist downwards.
Skills:
Physically fit, and can run a pretty long distance without getting tired.
Good at figuring things out, like puzzles, etc.
History:
Before his accident, Flint worked as the chef at his own restaurant with his younger brother, Jake. He was pretty content with his life, and did his best to take care of his brother after their parents died. One night after a long shift in the kitchen he was driving home and was just crossing a bridge when he got a call from Jake. Not paying enough attention to the road, he collided with a truck and was sent off the bridge and into the river. He was rescued, and thankfully survived, but after that Flint spent months in hospital trying to nurse his broken body back to health. Jake felt so guilty that he tried absolutely everything he could to cure him. He thought there was no hope left until he got an anonymous email about some pioneering new methods in treatment...
Extent of Memory Loss:
Flint remembers most of his accident (although it is a little foggy), and being dropped off for treatment by his brother. However anything after that is vague at best. The only thing he remembers of his treatment is being told he would definitely walk again.
