Description
Mutant Codename: Nightshock
Real name: Zachary Anthony Thomas [nickname Z.A.T.]
Rank: (founder and leader of the breed) |primary founding member & alumnus| Breed Lieutenant Colonel
Aliases: Mutant Experiment # 910402, Reckon, Spider-Knight, Captain Earth, Nihlactus, (soon to be announced Nightshock variant - character in Breed 1406)
Appearance <-> {special note - concept art completed}
Costume Design: Similar in fashion to Spider-man's suit, with different colors, and web lines are aligned differently. Almost every week Nightshock redesigns his costume in interesting and unique ways.
Alternate costume designs: (1) One variation has a helmet replacing the mask.
Likeness of: Creator of entire Breed Universe and parallel realities- Silent J
Mutant powers: Nightshock can absorb, copy, and modify or combine different mutant and heroes powers. Sentinel tech and mutant DNA were combined in an experiment that the government conducted, to create a mutant capable of scanning a mutant or a hero, and replicate                      their powers, to use against them. Nightshock is also capable of modifying his powers down to the genetic level, even to the point of combining them.
His sum total of mutant powers presently numbers over 3,000,000,000.
Power Type: Power absorption, redirection, and combination
Additional Powers -
1. Fluid Motion - This ability allows Nightshock to chain together different movements in complete succession.
2. The World - Nightshock channels the energy of all the life of the planet into himself, and then releases the energy in either a single punch or an energy blast.
3. Alien Symbiote - Nightshock has a unique power in his arsenal; years ago, he got a piece of the original symbiote which made up spider-man's black suit, and Venom. The symbiote {known by the name "Vengeance"} increases Nightshock's natural power, and gives him the same enhancements that it gave the original Spider-man. It prefers to be male, and has a rep for having a bad temper.
4. Multiple Immunities - Because of the nature of Nightshock's powers, he has multiple immunities against almost any type of mutant power. Immunities include telepathic, magnetic, etc.
5. Power Emulation - One of Nightshock's more interesting abilities is using his powers in a similar way that the now dormant heroes would have used. Emulating Spider-man, Nightshock swings on webbing made of energy and exhibits other spider powers. Emulating the Incredible Hulk, he turns into Reckon. Emulating Ghost Rider, he uses his powers to empathically draw on the life energy of all living things, and inflict it on an enemy.
6. Temporary Power Transfer {this power is oddly reminiscent of the Power Cosmic (or Captain Universe) - Nightshock can temporarily give power to his fellow heroes, increasing their powers, and even giving them additional powers.
7. Extra-dimensional Awareness - NIghtshock is constantly aware of activity in parallel realities, and alternate universes. He achieves this by maintaining telepathic contact with his multiple counterparts in other universes.
8. Temporal exclusion - Nightshock also has the ability to exist outside of the Space-Time-continuum, which basically means that if anything were to happen time the past, Nightshock in the present would be unaffected by the changes.
9. Cape Dimension - Nightshock's cape has pocket dimensional properties (much like Raven of the Teen Titans), which allows him to store an infinite amount of things in there, i.e. enemies, building chunks, people in need, etc.
10. Sentinel nanites - He can use the nanites embedded in him, since birth, to access files, information, encrypted info, bio-scans, and access to Sentinel technology.
Brief History & Other Facts: Nightshock's beginnings start in unusual circumstances. Before he was born, he and his mother was subject to a cruel experiment that would have change them into superpower sentinel underlings. If the Silver Surfer had not been there, patrolling the earth, they most likely would have died, for no one had survived the process thus far. The sentinels used a serum to transform mutants into powerhouses controlled by sentinel nanites. But before the Surfer could stop the injection, it was too late. The serum was injected into Nightshock's bloodstream, altering his DNA. The Silver Surfer could give him a fighting chance, by removing the impurities of the serum. After helping them escape, the facility was mysteriously destroyed. Over the next few years, he discovered new powers were available to him. Eventually, Nightshock was invited to join the X-Men. After meeting various X-Men, who would shape his life, he found out he had a long lost sister. But in only five days of knowing her, she met a tragic end. Trying to cope with his sudden loss, he took a two year sabbatical to hone and perfect his skills, to prevent any future incidents. Upon returning, he found out that Silhouette, his friend and fellow X-Man, left a year after he did, and would later betray them. Having been back a few months, trying to readjust to his new life, the Sentinels attacked. After attacking key locations such as Stark Tower, The X-Mansion, S.H.E.I.L.D., and other spots, the Sentinels launched their new weapon, the Gideon. Many of the heroes were wiped out, leaving New York and other cities around the world riddled with massive craters. Seeing the destruction around the world, Nightshock, his friends, and a small band of mutants with them that survived, formed a team to combat the Sentinels, and other forces that would threaten humanity. They formed the Breed.
Although Nightshock can fly, he prefers to emulate his friend Spider-man, and web-swing. Nightshock was once an X-man for a few years before forming the Breed.
Known relatives: Mr & Mrs. Thomas - parents,|Jessie Thomas (Futureshock) - sister|Mariah Rivers Johnson (Onyx) - aunt|Annika Johnson (Chromia) - cousin |Natalie Thomas (Bio-Shock) - half-sister [clone]|Andrew Hall (Aftershock) - half brother|
Extra Skills: Team level training, and vigilante level training.
Of special note: Nightshock shares certain similarities to other heroes, such as:{A.M.A.Z.O. from Justice League} & {Peter Petrelli from "Heroes"}, only in the sense of copying abilities and adapting them to himself.
Strengths: team training, vigilante, leadership.
