Appearance:Devon is 5'8, with a slim built, much like his parents. he rarely does any exercise, nor physical activity, aside from tossing the football around with his dad, which he seems to possess natural talent for. With this, Devon does have the potential to excel in sports, but as of right now, he has no interest. His skin is olive, and has dark brown bladed hair which later turned black for some odd reason, his eyes are light brown as well. When he was small, his mother used to call him dusty, due to these qualities. He has no tattoos of the sort, and doesn't have any muscular appearance due to his life style.

Devon is really old school when it comes to his appearance and hobbies, rather him doing a lot of things the old fashion way. Devon wears no jewelry, he does wear glass from time to time, and on some days he will wear contacts.

Personality: ]Devon is someone who always wants to take control of the situation, even when he is not sure how to handle it. The true behind this, is that he really has no control over his impulses. Devon is a adrenalin junky, meaning once he gets riled up, there is no telling what he will do. This is probably the reason why he normally cant control himself, which is ironic how he has such a tendency to act like this, when he is rarely active in any sports at all. This tendency has also gotten him into trouble at school, acting out of line, to even doing crazy things such as venturing into forbidden areas of the school.

Devon also tends to believe himself as an actual hero sometimes, which he uses a lot to justify his means. This tying into his unstable impulses, has lead him into doing many many oddly things. As a boy, he had read plenty of his father's comics, thus developing a love for the heroic life.

The Background

History:Devon was born in Detroit, Michigan, his father Gabriel Cooper, and his mother Martha Cooper. As a boy, he spent a lot of time with his dad, picking up a lot of his habits. Such as reading car magazines, messing around with pad locks, and even learning a thing or two about football. Nevertheless, the boy grew up on the age of technology, so instead of the mature copy his father had wished for, Devon developed into a social geek who loved comics. Along with the car magazines, Devon also read plenty of his father's old comic books, and with the growing popularity of heroes today, Devon was bound to fall into the hype.

When Devon turned 12, the family moved to the ever active New York City. Which was too Devon's liking, since many of today's heroes are active there. When Devon got old enough, and started to go to Manhattan Prep High School , he made a few new friends, and loved to talk about super heroes among them. He mostly talks with Jett and Lexia about superheroes, since they were the first friends he made in school. It was his love of life, living the life of a hero, if possible. Later on in his current grade, 11, he met Aeron, Noir, and Chad, who seemed to be a alright bunch.

His dad however never liked his addiction to comics, and regretted that fact that he never threw them away. So every now and then after work , as a locksmith, he would take the older Devon down to the pool hall, or toss the football around to try and shape him into a mini him. The only thing Devon managed to develop that makes him and his dad similar, was their thirst for action. This was displayed in high school countless times, like breaking into the teacher's office to, or even pick locking students lockers to get the homework that he missed.

So for now, Devon, the 17 year old, goes to school, which still hearing many news reports about heroes in New York.
