Name/Nickname:
Phillip Olsen, Phil, Piggy
Age:
14
Gender:
Male
Height:
4'9''
Weight:
110lbs
Alignment:
Neutral Good
Affliction:
A mutation makes him submit a chemical/biological undefined compound which makes fungus and mold grow faster.
Nationality:
American
Occupation:
Student at the Bridgeport Public School
Skills and Abilities:
Can make mold grow at an extremely fast rate just by sheer will. Moderate skills with guitar. An awful rapper, but he doesn't know that himself.
Weaknesses:
Let's face it, he's small and puny and can't beat anyone in a fair fight, not even his little sister. But that doesn't stop him from trying, of course. He's also extremely allergic to peanuts. And so afraid of dogs that just the sight of one makes him turn around and flee.
The mold grows faster when he's upset, angry, smitted... To be able to control it he must be able to control his temper and his feelings, and now we're talking about a 14 year old boy here. Not some old zen master.
And his grades are not that good, either.
Relationships:
He got a father (dentist) and a little sister. He also got a handful of friends or something similar. (All of these characters are NPC) He doesn't know anything about all the other monsters in Bridgeport and thinks that he's the only freak around. Oh, the naivety.
EDIT: As for now, Phil is a runaway. He didn't want to be a threat to his family anymore so he just left. They are still looking for him, but he currently live with Hailey - who's about the only friend he has.
Personality:
Phil is unusually grumpy and cynical, even for being a teenager. He walks around with a constant frown and smiles very seldom, and his motto is the very creative "Life sucks." He likes to think that people find him tough and reticent, but actually the word most people use to describe him with is 'sullen'.
Phil is born a pessimist, even when he's feeling happy for once he can't help but think "this will not last for very long". His generally grumpiness drives people away and he has very few friends, he would like to be popular but there's no use since he's already been labeled as a wierdo at school.
He likes pancakes. And music, especially rap and hip hop. When he grows up he wants to be a famous rapper. He dislikes people who make fun of him, wrangles with him or simply annoys him. Actually he's not so fond of people in general. And he loathes mold.
He hates his life and his curse (actually it's a kind of mutation) and is so full of self pity that it's a wonder he hasn't started a blog yet.
Appearance:
Since he's still a victim of puberty, he suffers from severe teenage issues like acne, voice-breaking and a multitude of brand new hormones.
Phil always smells a bit damp and moldy, a smell that no deodorant in the world can cover. This is because small amounts of fungus grows in the creases of his clothes; he wears them very close to his body, after all. It's no wonder they get affected. He often has to buy new clothes, preferably something baggy.
History:
Phillip has always radiated a small amount of a chemical/biological compound which makes mold, mildew and different types of fungi grow faster when he's around. He doesn't radiate mold, just a subject that makes mold grow faster. When he was younger it wasn't very noticeable, but when he hit puberty the small amount multiplied. When he's very upset the growth is visible by the naked eye; green goo slowly covers the walls and interiors; a small gray-white pelt covers plants and sofas; wood starts to decay and so on... Furthermore the air is getting full of poisonous spores; a small amount in a place with good air circulation does no harm, but if a person breathes in a big amount it leads to trouble breathing, coughing seizures, puking, allergic reactions or serious intoxication. Phil himself is unaffected, but it can be life-threatening to be in his presence.
The mold don't grows on living things, just dead organic stuff. Like food.
Keeping food fresh in Phil's presence is impossible. He can turn fresh milk sour with just a glare.
Phil lives in a small flat with his father and his little sister (His mother died when he was 7.) The family has been moving a lot the last year, every place they get to mystically gets attacked by mold within a month or two. And the school has been sanitated against mold twice this month... people blame it on the damp climate. No one suspects a thing, of course, and Phil tries to keep his head low. But sometimes it's hard, especially when someone calls him 'piggy' or something like that. To not make the bully choke takes a lot of self-restraining.
Even if he managed to tell a girl that he likes her it would be no good, if they kissed she would probably end up in the intensive care. But even now, no girl in school has the least intention of kissing him. This fact, of course, doesn't do much to improve his mood.
Anything Else:
He finds a certain comfort in being rude toward strangers.
