Ｂａｓｉｃ Ｉｎｆｏｒｍａｔｉｏｎ
STATS / FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Name: Edward "Add" Grenore
Age: 21
Birthdate: January 2nd
Height: varies
Weight: varies
Bloodtype: N/A
Species: (formerly) Human
Class: Mad Paradox
Basic Physical Appearance / Build
Add's outward appearance varies. He's capable of changing his apparent age, anywhere from his oldest "true" form to a younger form around the age of ten to twelve. He prefers to remain in his younger form, only switching to the older one when necessary or when around people he's comfortable with.
His hair colour is a pale lavender, which can be mistaken for white at a distance. He keeps it short, if a bit unkempt, in most of his forms, though his "true" form's hair is grown out all the way down to his ankles. He's naturally albino so his skin is very light and he sunburns easily.
His natural eye colour is red, but his eyes have been modified using Nasod technology. His irises are a pinkish-purple colour with what looks like a power symbol etched in the centre in place of normal pupils. The left eye's symbol is always lit up with a faint white glow. The schlera in his left eye is completely black. His right eye's schlera can also turn black at times.
The purple line running down from above his left eye is a tattoo. It ends at a little circle above his eyebrow, but that part is usually hidden under his hair. The tattoo is slightly different in his "true" form.
His ears have a sharp point at the tips, though they're usually hidden under his hair.
In his "true" form, his teeth are pointed like a shark's. There's a small area of overlap in between, but his younger form has normal human teeth.
He has a very light build. He's flexible and has quick reflexes, but he relies heavily on his drones in combat, so he's not very strong physically. He also forgets to eat and sleep a lot of the time, so he's somewhat malnourished and unhealthy. His fighting style means he avoids getting a lot of scars from combat, but he does have noticeable scarring on his neck as well as on his wrists and ankles from when he was imprisoned as a child. There are other marks on his body as well, but most of them are very faint and healed over a long time ago. However, he makes an effort to cover up his scars up with his clothing, and most of them are easy to overlook. The only real noticeable mark is the one around his neck, which is usually hidden behind a choker or a high collared shirt.
Lastly, there's the matter of the large glowing crystal in the centre of his chest. At a glance it might appear to be part of his clothing, but it is in fact embedded in his body. It feels smooth and warm to the touch.
Biology / Supernatural Traits
First of all, there's the shapeshifting. He can change his physical age at will. This is limited to his appearance at specific points within his lifetime, starting from his preteen years. His "true" form is final; he can't grow anymore from that state, due to the fact that he technically died and reconstructed his body by manipulating the fabric of timespace.
Secondly, his body is very obviously unstable. While he was human in life, his overuse of time travel corrupted him with a "disease" that gradually broke down his body from the inside-out. He was eventually overwhelmed by the corruption, though he was able to survive by adapting to his new form. He still imitates his original appearance, but his body tends to break up into glowing crystalline fragments in several places. The instability is most severe in his "true" form, where it's impossible for him to hide it. His younger form is the most stable, though it still has the same fragmenting issue; it's just easier for him to cover it up. The most obviously affected area is his left shoulder, which is damaged up to the base of his neck and tends to seep through his clothing. The fragments feel extremely sharp to the touch, like sticking your hand in a pile of glass shards, though contact with it draws no blood. Trying to touch a fragmented area also doesn't feel solid; you can stick your whole hand in there, though it'll be uncomfortable for everyone involved. Any fragments that float away or break off disappear after only a few seconds.
Underneath his skin, his internal biology is... questionable. His body is a reconstruction of a human body, and far from a perfect one. He still breathes, has a heartbeat, and can eat and sleep, but all of this can be ignored at will. He doesn't technically need to do any of those things to stay "alive", but he prefers to keep up the act for his own comfort and to prevent unneeded instability. Cutting into him reveals no blood or organs, and instead he "bleeds" a combination of a bright magenta fluid and a much thicker, viscous black ooze. The magenta fluid evaporates quickly and has acidic properties that can cause mild chemical burns. The black fluid stains and smells a lot like tar. Ingesting either can cause powerful hallucinations (vampires, please find a different victim, it's for your own good).
His mental defences are fairly strong, though this is more because of his unusual physical state rather than any training or natural psychic abilities. Trying to read his mind or memories is possible, but it may come back fragmented or scrambled out of order. Surface thoughts are clearer, though still might be a bit disorienting to read. If he's aware he's being read, he can actively amplify this mental scrambling to "attack" invading psychics. This won't cause any long-term damage, but it can cause a headache until they stop or he gives up. Mind control is unlikely to work at all, due to his unusual circumstances, though it may be able to render him immobile for a time if the attacker is persistent.
Because his body is made of raw spatiotemporal matter, he radiates a massive amount of magical energy. He's able to mask this somewhat in his younger form, though magic-sensitive individuals may still notice his unusual presence. In his unstable true form it's plainly obvious that he's a walking mana source.
Individuals sensitive to concepts such as light and darkness will notice that he contains a very high concentration of negative energy. He's personally and willingly killed hundreds of innocent lives, as well as ended entire timelines on multiple occasions. He is not completely without remorse and there's a shred of a decent person still left in him, but the negativity greatly outweighs the good.
Clothing
His "default" outfit is actually part of his reconstructed body, which is convenient since it can adjust to fit his apparent age. The inner layer consists of a long-sleeves shirt and pants, both of which are lightly armoured with a flexible plastic-like materials. Both parts are fairly skintight, with a "window" cut out of the top to show the crystal in his chest. There are a couple decorative belts and some small crystal accents that glow with a pink light. The outer layer is a long dark-purple jacket with a pink diamond pattern on the inside. There's a small pair of clips to keep it closed when he needs to be discreet about the weird glowing shoulder. The upper area of the back and shoulders on it are also padded with armour, and four decorative chains hang down from the armoured part of the back. The hood of the jacket has a cute pair of cat ears on it. He likes keeping it up, though it doesn't quite fit his hair inside when he's in his "true" form.
When not wearing his normal outfit, he is extremely fond of jackets and hoodies. He has a plethora of hoodies with cat ears and has absolutely no shame in wearing them with the hood up. He's very self conscious about his body, though, so he always tries to cover up as much of it as possible. He'll wear a lot of layers to conceal himself completely, even if none of those layers match. He prefers comfort and flexibility in his clothes, not really caring too much about his appearance.
Physical Mannerisms
He walks with a a slouch, only straightening his posture when he's intentionally trying to seem taller or more confident. He touches his face a lot, often to touch or cover up his eyes (old habits from when he hid his black schlera behind an eyepatch) or over his mouth (as if the hand being there would make his loudly talking to himself any less obvious). Otherwise, his arms are usually folded, or his hands are on his hips or in pockets. He detests most forms of physical contact, so he'll avoid even the faintest excuse for it at all times.
He expresses himself most through his eyes, which spark or glow when he's excited or angry, or turn black when he's particularly upset. As such, he'll often turn away or avoid eye contact when he's trying to hide his emotions.
He also expresses himself a lot through his dynamos. He controls Dynamo through a mental link, so his control over them is easily affected by his emotional state. If he's calm, they'll move very precisely and tend to remain in perfectly even formations. If he's excited or happy, they might seem to vibrate or spark at random, as if overflowing with energy. If he's surprised they might spark or "jump" out of formation suddenly. If he's angry or distressed their movements would become more erratic and uneven. If he's sad or scared, they'll tend to hover closer to his body like a protective shield or a comforting hug. If he's weak or tired they'll wobble and sink out of formation.
Verbal Mannerisms
He often litters his speech with little chuckles and tics of laughter, like he is in a constant state of mild amusement. He also likes to ramble and trail off into mumbling when he's thinking about something. He talks to himself a lot. When he's especially excited about something he talks faster and speaks over people (assuming he leaves any room for them to start speaking at all). Once he's focused on something it's very difficult to get him to shut up. Overall, he gives a strong impression of someone who loves the sound of his own voice.
He also laughs when he's nervous. Not like his normal laughter, but an incredibly loud and forced kind of laughter that makes his discomfort painfully obvious.
Surprisingly, he has a pretty good singing voice. Good luck getting to hear it, though.

ABILITIES
Before losing his humanity, Add was a mostly normal human being of Debrian descent. This means that he was born without any capacity for using magic, so while his body may still generate mana he can't manipulate it on his own.
Raised by a pair of talented scientist parents, he was a child prodigy and has a wide breadth of knowledge when it comes to the various sciences. His specialties are mainly in robotics and physics, though he is also fairly knowledgeable with chemistry and concocting drugs and medicines. He's designed several killer robots as well as his Nasod Dynamos, which are a set of six hovering drones that he controls with a Nasod implant connected to his brain. (For the record, the name for the type of machine his drones are is a "dynamo", and the nickname he uses to refer to his set of dynamos is... "Dynamo".)
The implant in question is inserted behind his left eye, which has also partially fused with his biology. It allows him to communicate with and control his dynamos, as well as store a great deal of raw data on Nasods and technology—he has a semi-photographic memory due to the implant, though he has to intentionally choose to "save" information to make use of it and can only store so much in his brain at a time (the rest is either deleted or backed up on his dynamos). The implant can generate enough electricity to give weak static shocks, so unarmed he has all the amazing and destructive power of fuzzy socks on a carpet, basically. Besides all that, they mostly just function as normal eyes.
The dynamos have their own internal batteries, but the primary source of energy for all of their uses comes from Add himself. Though he may be incapable of using his body's mana for magic, he can channel it through Dynamo to have them perform all kinds of useful tasks as well as generate attacks and shields to defend him in battle. He can use them to glide and levitate, control electrical currents, and generate spatial distortions that can teleport, move or bind objects, or even shatter and manipulate the fabric of reality itself. He can control and travel through time in various ways, though his attempts at directly travelling to and altering his own past haven't been successful due to the fact that the universe doesn't like paradoxes.
Add needs to act as the power source and medium that controls Dynamo's powers. Originally, this caused a great deal of strain on his body due to his interest in distorting reality and controlling time—subjects that aren't so easily swayed by human will. This strain is what caused his body to become corrupt by spatiotemporal matter and eventually break down. Now that his body is no longer human, though, he has a much easier time bending reality and controlling his powers, and he is very slowly learning to use his abilities without Dynamo's assistance.
His body's unusual state means he doesn't necessarily follow all the rules a living human would need to, and his instability has a few pros and cons to it as well. He can make his body completely weightless and levitate at will whenever he wants. He can survive without air or "breathe" underwater if he needs to, though this can be very uncomfortable for him over extended periods. He doesn't need food or water, and he can stay awake without rest for extremely long periods of time. He can still choose to eat or drink if he wants to, though he gets sick easily when trying new things for the first time. As for sleep, if he refrains from using his supernatural abilities or injuring himself and sticks to only normal-human activities he can basically stay awake forever. With regular use of his abilities (changing forms, teleporting, distorting reality, etc.) he'll need to rest for at least a few hours every three days to prevent his body from destabilizing. If he's been using his abilities heavily or has sustained serious injuries, his body will continuously deteriorate until he gives it a proper chance to recover. In more severe circumstances he's likely to be in a comatose state for anywhere from a day to a week straight.
Damage sustained to his body is treated equally no matter where he's struck, so getting stabbed would hurt but it's unlikely to kill him even if he's hit where his heart should be. Injuries will cause his body to fragment and destabilize, but he can recover from most minor injuries without much difficulty. As the damage becomes more widespread or severe, though, he may struggle to hold himself together. Most medicines don't really work on him, but he still responds positively to healing magic and injections of additional energy. Even if parts of his body are severed or completely fragmented and lost, he can recover back to perfect health given enough time and energy to reconstruct himself.
In terms of physical strength, he's incredibly lacking. His body appears to be dangerously underweight, and he's not very difficult to push over or pick up. Though he has powerful regenerative abilities and a higher-than-normal pain tolerance, he's not very good at taking hits. Recovering from injuries takes up a lot of his attention and energy, so he can't effectively multitask after he's been injured in a battle. He has very quick reflexes and can calculate every detail of his attacks in a matter of seconds, but he's reliant on his dynamos and becomes next to useless without him. Dynamo also assists in keeping his body stable, so if he's separated from them or they become damaged he's even more vulnerable to being incapacitated or destroyed. Because of all this, he normally takes a back-row position in battles, using long ranged attacks or shouting battle plans at his allies rather than charging in from the frontlines.
There is one last trick up his sleeve if he or one of his allies does end up taking a lot of damage. Within a short range of himself, he can use his dynamos to "save" a person's physical state at that particular point in time. If that person is killed or sustains a fatal injury within a few minutes of that timepoint, he's able to revert them back to their previous state. Basically, he has a time-sensitive undo button he can use on both himself or others. Any pain from injuries that were reversed will linger, though, and during this period of "time sickness" he can't use the same ability on that person again.
