age. seventeen
gender. male
rank. level 2 patient

appearance. milo has a nimble frame that allows him to move quickly and efficiently. he has pale skin with ocean blue eyes, and his hair is short and brown. wide, thundering feet are put upon him, along with quite large, elfish ears. his vocal chords drip with a slight german accent.
accessories and scars. milo has a large scar going down the left side of his chest received from an unfortunate fall during one of his karate tournaments.

personality. milo is full of nervous tics. he's rather quiet around anyone he doesn't know, but with his friends he definitely tries his best to open up. he prefers to stay out of conflict, and although he has a great listening ear, he hates being in the middle of things. he can't do confrontation - he's one to start bawling if someone even slightly raises their voice at him. despite him not wanting people talking behind his back too badly, he can unfortunately be judgmental. it's one of his flaws that he despises about himself but just can't help - it's very obvious in his gazes and words in how brutally honest he'll be. however, he's still cowardly and would never be mean straight to someone. regardless of his many nervous tendecies, milo has a big heart, and cares greatly for the well-being of his friends.

powers.
elasticity. milo can become extremely malleable, which allows him to stretch, flatten, deform, expand, and contract his entire body. he can even use his body as a tool or temporary construct, and when he is in an elastic state he rarely feels pain because damage is absorbed by the stretching. he is, however, vulnerable to slicing or cutting attacks simply because his body becomes so thin. he also cannot stretch farther than four miles.
aerokinesis. milo can shape and manipulate air, as well as having an enhanced lung capacity. it is very helpful during attacks because virtually you cannot see air, making it invisible and extremely versatile. he can also remove oxygen from the atmosphere for a limited amount of time to strangle an opponent. however, he needs an existing source to use this power, and his precision isn't all that good.
amalgamation. milo can merge two or more separate objects into one, whether it be organic, inorganic, living, dead, or even technological. he can decide which parts are dominant and which are deleted completely. the fusions that he can perform are never permanent, only staying together for the better part of an hour. he hasn't learned how to merge humans, but he can do plants, animals, and technology. he barely has control over the result of the merging, and he doesn't know how to merge brains so they have only one train of thought.
illnesses. crohn's disease

past. milo and his brother, dylan, were born to two ill-prepared parents, who immediately left them in foster care because they didn't know how to raise them. thankfully, they were adopted very quickly. milo was born with crohn's disease and it was a struggle to keep up with it throughout his life, but most of the time his medicine managed to help. when milo and dylan turned ten years old, their foster mother, clio, enrolled them in karate lessons. dylan was terrible and he quit a few days later, but milo stayed committed and got up to a black belt. he received many scars and bruises from karate, but he loved it, as a way to empty his anger. one day he was practicing for his final tournament out in the woods by his house and he started to lose oxygen. the air was toxic with radiation from a sanctuary nearby and he was rushed to the hospital. he was told to be taken away because the tests revealed his newfound powers, and he's been at the sanctuary for five years. he developed nyctophobia because the scientists always took him to be tested in the middle of the night, and he associated bad things with the dark because of that. he made good friends with two other patients named hisato and irida, and now they spend most of their time in the lounge playing video games.
