He has long since died, but a portion of his soul lives in all of his descendants, dormant for the time being]<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Despite his intimidating size and appearance, Piotr is a quiet, kind, and gentle man.  While many his age would prefer to go out on an evening in town, Peter would prefer to stay at home with his loved ones and play a game or paint or read. When he does go out, he is usually the quiet one of the group who says very little but listens to everything. He says that he has two ears and only one tongue, so he listens twice as much as he talks. In reality, he feels awkward and shy in social settings around a lot of people he doesn't know – shallow and meaningless conversation makes him uncomfortable.<br/><br/>Get to know Peter though... it's worth the effort to find out who he truly is. He is unflinchingly loyal to those who have won his friendship and he would give them the shirt off his back if they needed it or tunnel through hell to save a fellow's life. He has always been a good listener and is very slow to judge most of the time; also very good at keeping the confidence of others. A man of simple tastes, he prefers honesty over lies, feeling that it only complicates life and that anyone you spend valuable time with should be someone with whom you can be honest.<br/><br/>Piotr's temper resembles the material that he encases himself in – it is durable and not easily bent or cracked. In other words, he is slow to anger, preferring to listen to people and talk things through intelligently. However, as with any material, apply enough force and Colossus will break; when Colossus does lose his temper, it is a sight to behold. Despite his long suffering demeanor, Piotr does have anger issues... due mainly to his own inability to open up to people or express his own feelings. Instead he tends to bottle them up, using his own anger and frustration as fuel for working out or training or those times when he does snap.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><strong>Hobbies:</strong>Art(More like burning passion), Training, Agriculture, Camping, Mechanics, Engineering, Carpentry, etc...<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Piotr was born in Siberia on a large multipurpose farming community called the Ust-Ordynski Collective. It was located only a few miles away from Lake Baikal, and Piotr and the other kids would often swim there growing up(when it was warm enough). As a child, he looked up to his brother Mikhail, who had left the farm and become an astronaut of nationwide fame. And a few years after Piotr, his parents had another child, Illyana.<br/><br/>Peter was a devoted older brother and always watched out for his little "Snowflake". Farm life was simple and hard in a place as cold as Siberia, but it was all young Piotr knew so he had no reason to complain. And when he had time to himself, he found release for any problems in art. He would even paint for others of the collective in return for supplies or favors; sometimes he even got money. It wasn't much, but he could buy candies for himself and his sister from time to time. Life was pretty normal all things considered, but one day everything changed. He had just turned fourteen and had the amazing(not really) talk with his parents that he could do more chores around the farm, but of course he would still be treated as a child. He was a good boy though so he did as he was told.<br/><br/>A few weeks later, his sister was playing by the barn and a tractor got out of control. The gas pedal jammed and the steering column locked due to the cold. Illyana was still a child and was so engrossed with her dolls that she didn't notice the death machine rumbling down on her. Piotr was close by, and was already running for her before his father even got the chance to yell at him. He reached his sister, but there was no time to get either of them out of the way. Something miraculous happened though, and there was a sound of clanking metal as he suddenly got bigger. He was still confused, but remained in between the tractor and his sister until it hit him. Then nothing. It hit him and crumpled against his outstretched arms with a loud crash. Finally looking down at himself, he saw his skin was shiny and his hand prints were embedded in the front of the tractor.<br/><br/>His father, mother, and everyone else who saw came running over, trying to see if Illyana was okay, but also looking at Piotr. He'd crushed a tractor like it was cardboard, and now stood among them as a giant, easily six and a half feet talk. It didn't take a genius to realize he was a mutant, but instead of being shunned, he was praised as a hero. Even though he'd destroyed one of the few working tractors on the farm, his powers allowed him to do much more than a single tractor ever could. The young Rasputin enjoyed his new found popularity in the Collective, but it didn't last for long. Only a few weeks later, Charles Xavier showed up and offered him a place at the Institute, where he could learn to hone his powers. He joined the X-Men after coming to America, and has gone on many adventures with them. During the latest Brotherhood attack, while he was locked in battle with Juggernaut, Magneto attacked him and seriously injured him with his powers, as Colossus in his metallic form is essentially at the Master of Magnetism's mercy. Thankfully, Illyana being the loving, demonic younger sister that she is, found the Ruby of Cyttorak and gifted it to her brother; partly to save him, and partly to spite Cain Marko. The result was him gaining the powers of the Juggernaut, at the cost of having a malevolent, nigh-omnipotent space demon whispering in his ear.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">Mutations and Powers</span></span><br/><strong>Classification:</strong>Alpha (Could be considered Omega with the addition of the Juggernaut powers)<br/><br/><strong>Type of mutant:</strong>Dormant Gene<br/><br/><strong>Powers:</strong><br/><br/><strong>Organic Steel Transformation:</strong>Colossus is a mutant with the superhuman ability to convert the tissue of his entire body into an organic steel-like substance, becoming not only taller, but larger as well. This substance resembling steel is of unknown composition but appears to be analogous to osmium and to carbon steel; which explains why he's so damn heavy(He weighs a metric ton). He is able to transform into this armor-like state at will (the process is virtually instantaneous) and remain in that form until he decides to revert to normal.<br/><br/>After an exhaustive amount of tests and studies run on him, the general consensus from people far more intelligent than he theorize that the conversion from flesh and bone to organic steel is accomplished by a psionic whole-brain interface with an ionic form of osmium, an extremely dense metal, located in another dimension. In willing the act of transformation, Colossus actually exchanges osmium atoms for his carbon atoms. The psionic interface with the other dimension re-creates all of Colossus's body in functionally similar organic ionic-osmium materials. And due to the unique makeup of his organic steel body, blood and organs seem to be replaced with a form of bio-energy that performs the same functions. The process by which Colossus gains additional mass from an unknown, perhaps extra-dimensional, force remains unknown. While he doesn't have many weaknesses, being so heavy means he has to watch his step as he can and has found himself falling through floors because they couldn't support his weight. Once he even had to shift back to his human form because the X-Jet wasn't calibrated for his weight and was performing sluggishly as a result.<br/><strong>Superhuman Strength:</strong>While in his armored state, Colossus possesses a colossal degree of superhuman strength, allowing him to perform feats of strength like throwing tanks, toppling or holding up buildings, and scrapping with beings with high end superhuman strength. His strength goes beyond simply lifting and punching, however, as it extends into his legs as well. Meaning aside from kicks that can cause rockslides and stomps that can cause localized tremors, he can travel by leaping through the air similar to the Hulk. While not the strongest ever, Colossus has grown in strength to be considered a "Class 100", and easily tops the charts as one of the physically strongest mutants in the world.<br/><strong>Superhuman Durability:</strong>In his armored form, Colossus is nearly invulnerable to all forms of physical harm. Bullets, energy attacks, long falls, and even attacks from other superhumanly strong opponents tend to get shrugged off. He can be hurt of course, but it takes a high amount of force to sufficiently hurt him. He is called Colossus for a reason.<br/><strong>Superhuman Speed/Agility:</strong>Surprising to not only him when he first discovered it, but to others as well, Colossus in his armored form is incredibly agile and fast. One would think that weighing as much as he does and being comprised of solid metal would make him slower, but it's actually the opposite. Due to his bio-energy and the efficiency of his muscles and skeletal structure being enhanced to such a degree, Colossus can move around faster than people would believe until they see it(and even then they still don't), and has often surprised opponents with his sheer speed. In fact one of his favored methods of attack is launching himself at his opponents and curling up like a human wrecking ball.<br/><strong>Superhuman Stamina:</strong>In his armored form he is completely sustained by his bio-energy, so he has no need for food, liquids, or sleep while armored up. Also as he is made of metal, his body doesn't get tired like a flesh and blood one would, allowing him to physically exert himself for extremely long periods of time.<br/><strong>Anti-Magical Body:</strong>Colossus' metal body is extremely resistant, if not outright immune to most magical effects. He has proven this several times, although no one has been able to figure out the reason why. Perhaps it's simply the composition of his body. Or maybe due to the inherent magic in his bloodline(His grandfather Grigori "The Mad Russian" Rasputin and his sister), he is immune to it's effects. Whatever the reason, it has served him well.<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Juggernaut Powers</div><div class="spoiler_body"><br/>Thanks to Illyana, Piotr now has access to another tier of abilities bestowed upon him by the Elder God Cyttorak, as his avatar. As The Juggernaut. However due to the fact that even in his human form, Cyttorak whispers to him and tries to feed off his negative energies; as well as being more emotional and quick to anger, he tends to refrain from using his Juggernaut powers unless absolutely necessary.<br/><br/><strong>Superhuman Strength:</strong> As the Juggernaut, Piotr possesses equal to if not greater strength than Cain Marko.<br/><strong>Superhuman Stamina:</strong> The Juggernaut possesses literally infinite stamina, and as a result he can exert himself as long as he wishes.<br/><strong>Invulnerability:</strong> The Juggernaut is highly invulnerable to all forms of physical injury. The Juggernaut's skin is almost completely unbreakable and he is highly resistant to pain. The Juggernaut is also immune to all toxins, poisons, and disease.  Any damage done to him can be quickly repaired by his healing factor.<br/><strong>Unstoppable Force:</strong> All Elder Gods have a main focus. Cyttorak's being Irresistible Force. That manifests in the Juggernaut as the inability to be stopped by anything once he starts moving in a direction. It's possible to slow him down, but nothing can truly stop the Juggernaut except the Juggernaut himself. <br/><strong>Superhuman Speed:</strong> Peter as the Juggernaut is incredibly fast, and able to run at least 600mph.<br/><strong>Demonic Form:</strong> Cyttorak has revealed to Piotr that he has quickly become his favorite Avatar in millenia. Because of this, as he gives in further to his dark desires, he draws more power from his deity and his appearance changes to resemble Cyttorak more. He grows even larger, grows claws and spikes from his body, etc...<br/><strong>Magic:</strong> The Juggernaut has access to at least a portion of Cyttorak's own vast mystical energy, however Colossus is rather new to his powers and doesn't train them much as he doesn't like to use them. As a result his magic usage is spotty at best.<br/></div></div><br/><strong>Abilities:</strong><br/><br/>Artist - While not a combat skill, Piotr has found himself to be a naturally gifted artist in a wide range of art styles. His work is so good, it received worldwide acclaim when he lost his memory and went by the name "Peter Nicholas".<br/><br/>Fighter - Since he was 14, Colossus has been training with the X-Men, and has spent copious amounts of time learning from people like Wolverine, Psylocke, and Cyclops. He has become particularly skilled in Judo, Sambo, Systema, and his own style which utilizes his advanced agility when in his armored form.<br/><br/>Handyman - He would never claim to be a genius like Hank or any of the other smartest people in the world. However Piotr knows his way around mechanics and electronics and is able to build and repair pretty much anything south of the realm of "Super science".<br/><br/>Pilot - He is one of the certified pilots of the X-Jet.<br/><br/>Multi-Lingual - Piotr speaks fluent Russian, English, and German.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">School Information</span></span><br/><strong>Classes Taught:</strong>Super Strength Training & Mastery(All Levels), Woodshop/Shop Class, Art<br/><br/><strong>Staff Relations:</strong><br/>He has been romantically involved with Shadowcat on and off for much of their history together.<br/>Nightcrawler is his best friend.<br/>Storm is a close friend and confidant.<br/>More to come.
