Super Heroes – Charlotte DeVries

Charlotte DeVries is a red-headed college student who is essentially a human heat pump. By moving heat around, (Or more accurately, transferring the energy of the heat from one area to another,) she can create many different effects. For instance, by taking heat from one source, (say, the ambient heat of the air) and concentrating it into a smaller space, she can burn objects. Or she can freeze objects by taking the heat from them. In addition, she can also rapidly heat one section of air, and cool another adjacent to it, and create a blast of wind. She continues to learn various applications of her powers as she uses them.

Charlotte grew up in a small town in Montana. She received several scholarships and currently attends Duque University, hoping to become a teacher, but when she gained her powers, she began taking classes involving thermodynamics as well. Charlotte is very artistic, and occasionally paints or composes music for the piano, which she can play very well.

Charlotte, however, is very flighty, and has a hard time focusing on nearly anything but her projects. Her family expects that she has ADHD, although she has never been tested for it. She is easily entertained, and will laugh at nearly anything, but can undergo sudden mood swings without warning. As such, she has been through several boyfriends, who couldn’t put up with someone so temperamental. However, her current boyfriend, Michael, seems to be a good match for her.

Luckily for Charlotte, her Advanced Mental State that kicks in while she uses her powers makes her capable of razor-sharp focus, and she becomes much more serious. When a character uses their powers frequently, the Advanced Mental State begins to rub off on them to a certain degree, and Charlotte gradually grows more emotionally stable as the series progresses.

Animoids – Jim Daiken

Jim Daiken is a character from the Animoids project. A brilliant geneticist, Jim never wanted to become a Animoid, but is still a member of Corps. Jim primarily oversees the process in which other members are given the morphing capability. He is a very good friend of Henry’s, and has an excellent sense of humor.

Jim is a wise-cracker, constantly making jokes about nearly everyone and everything he comes in contact with. His closest friends are generally those who are good at bantering back and forth with him. Jim’s conversations with these people are usually filled with in-jokes and pop-culture references.

Jim can be serious, however, and this shows in his work. While Henry was in his coma, Jim worked nearly round the clock for weeks until they understood what was happening, and Henry had stabilized. Jim tries to know each new Animoid member personally, and is often a member of the support team for the Animoid’s missions.
