While he currently is not much stronger than the average person, with a deadlift capacity of 80kg, his strength will increase with training.</li><li> His nervous system now fires faster, increasing his reflexes and co-ordination. He can currently sprint 100 metres in 10 seconds, equivalent to 36 km/h, although this too will likely improve with training.</li><li>The solar radiation also improves his stamina, allowing him to maintain his top sprinting speed for approximately 30 seconds before becoming winded and again this will improve with training.</li><li>Doug’s body recovers from exhaustion and injury like an Olympic athlete in top condition. This regenerative capacity will increase in time, but probably require him to bathe directly in strong sunlight to activate.</li><li>Finally, Doug’s body has adapted to contain the solar radiation within him and now acts as a radioactive sponge, allowing him to draw energy from sunlight. It is unknown what effect intense exposure to other forms of radiation will have on his body.</li></ul></li></ul><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>Flight</em> – By emitting the solar radiation from his body Doug is capable of unassisted flight, but has not yet mastered the ability to do more than hover a few inches above the ground or slow his descent when falling. With training, his flight speed and manoeuvrability will improve.</li></ul><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>Solar Flare</em> – Doug can emit the solar radiation in a high-intensity, short-duration burst that functions much the same as the visual component of a flashbang grenade. The flare is emitted from the top of his head. With training, it is conceivable that he may be able to create this effect from different body-parts or increase the duration/intensity of the flare.</li></ul><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>Solar Beam</em> – By releasing a focused stream of solar radiation, Doug can essentially fire powerful beams of concentrated sunlight from his hands. Currently, the beam isn’t as refined as it could be, lasting for only a few seconds over an effective range of a dozen metres and reaching a temperature of 40 degrees celsius with sufficient ultra-violet radiation to cause sunburn after a few seconds of exposure.  The physical impact of the beam is currently enough to stagger the average person, or knock them over if already unbalanced. With time, Doug will be able to focus more energy into the beams more efficiently - increasing duration, range, temperature and impact.</li></ul><strong>WEAKNESSES:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>Finite Power Level</em> – Doug’s body is still adapting to the changes wrought upon it and can only store so much energy at a time. If he is not careful, depleting his available power will result in saturation levels falling below the critical level required to sustain his enhanced physique, leaving him weaker, slower and more vulnerable to damage.</li></ul><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>Sunlight Dependency</em> – The only source of natural solar energy is sunlight and without access to it, Doug has no way to recharge his body of its lost energy and must therefore be careful of using too much power during the night or while underground.</li></ul><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>Radiation Poisoning</em> – For the most part, Doug’s body releases radiation in small, harmless doses. If however he loses control, either through emotional trauma or inebriation, he can flood the area around him in more dangerous levels of radiation that could lead to instances of him accidentally poisoning things in his vicinity.</li></ul><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>Cold Environments</em> – While his new resting body temperature of 45 degrees Celsius gives Doug some resistance to warmer environments, exposure to the cold affects him twice as fast as the average person and slows his regenerative capabilities considerably.</li></ul><br/><strong>HISTORY:</strong>Douglas Davenport was born and raised in Portsmouth, England. His father manufactured high-precision, bespoke electronics while his mother worked as a naval architect. Inheriting good genes, Doug grew up fit and smart and after completing school, enrolled with the Institute of Astronomy at the University of Cambridge.<br/><br/>During a summer internship at CERN following the end of his first year at University, there was an accident and by leaping into the containment breach, Douglas saved many lives but was exposed to extreme levels of solar radiation. Although expected to die within hours, it quickly became apparent to the medical experts that something odd was occurring within his body as the radiation damage began to regress and be healed. The full scope of Doug’s miraculous survival wouldn’t become apparent for another week, at which point the changes within him jumped from the microscopic level to the macroscopic.<br/><br/>S.H.I.E.L.D. was monitoring his case as being of potential interest, an assessment that was changed to immediate acquisition when Doug started hovering and shooting beams of sunlight from his hands. Agents arrived at the hospital and persuaded him to go with them, much to his parent’s disapproval. Doug’s arrival at the A.C.E. facility was delayed by twelve hours thanks to an in-flight failure forcing the transport down in the wilderness. By the time S.H.I.E.L.D. located them – naturally they had gone down in a dead zone – and went through more security checks, Doug and his fellow students arrived at A.C.E. just in time for the curfew on the night before the first day of school began.<br/><br/><strong>PERSONALITY:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><em>Assertive</em> – Doug is confident and self-assured, but not aggressively so.  </li><li><em>Courageous</em> – Although he knows fear as much as anyone, Doug pushes past it to act.</li><li><em>Dependable</em> – If Doug says he will do something, he will do it.</li><li><em>Energetic</em> – He is often in motion, even if only tapping a finger or foot and attacks everything with zest.</li><li><em>Intelligent</em> – Before the accident, Doug was a top student in Astrophysics. He hasn’t lost his edge since.</li><li><em>Loyal</em> – Doug doesn’t believe in abandoning his friends.</li><li><em>Stubborn</em> – He finds it difficult to let go of an idea once it has gotten into his head.</li><li><em>Vain</em> – Doug finds it hard to be humble when he’s clearly made of awesome.</li></ul><br/><strong>EQUIPMENT:</strong>Radiation badges, gold necklace<br/><strong>CHARACTER O/O's:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>On’s: Being outdoors, exercising, flirting, intelligence, foreplay, confidence, heat, as player</li><li>Off’s: Laziness, darkness, mind games, arrogance, cold, as player</li></ul><strong>PLAYER O/O's:</strong>Located here (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=162358.0).<br/><strong>NOTES:</strong>
