Luca

114561.jpgLuca Koutarou
Age: 16

Personality: Quiet, bold, uncaring. He loves taking pictures, but takes it to a somewhat extreme level. He is often mistaken as a pervert or a stalker, although he says it's not so, and claims he 'simply records what is beautiful', though that can range from a tree to women..

Ability: Has been tagged by the researchers of Hinan-Sho as possessing "Light Control" instead of Invisibility, though Luca himself is not sure, since his powers had been misdiagnosed many times throughout his life. As a level 1, all he can do, or rather can't, is flicker uncontrollably from time to time. That's why no one's sure of his powers yet; save for one person, who seems to have a lot of confidence in his opinion.

Background: Luca's life was relatively peaceful; save for the fact that his mother died at an incident involving a hostage situation when he was 7, he lived like a normal kid, save for being bullied most of the time for being a Plus...until that happened, 5 years ago.

At that time, Luca wasn't aware of his powers, and he showed an interest in photography, so his father, although very poor, managed to buy him a cheap, worn out camera, that he has to this day. He was extremely happy when he got it, and went to play with it immediatelly. His father suggested Luca he take a picture of him; and Luca agreed. But as soon as he brought the camera to his eye, his father noticed something was wrong; it was as if Luca's very existence was flickering like a dying candle. His dad reached to him, but then Luca pressed the button on the camera. Usually, those make a brief flash of light, that hardly stuns a person. But, not this time. The flash of light that came off the camera was monstrously big; enough to cover the entire house in a ball of light, and completely rob Luca's father of his vision. His father fell to the ground, and screamed, holding his eyes. Meanwhile, Luca was confused; what happened? All he did was take a picture. So why was his father on the ground, screaming? He didn't understand.

A few hours after that, he was taken into a Pluses researching facility, and they determined he was a Plus. His father was sent into an asylum; and he was taught under a researcher's supervision, until he turned 15. After some study, they determined his ability as 'Invisibility', but that changed throughout the years to be many things: Invisibility, Flawed Teleportation, even Multi-Dimensional Transfer. He wasn't even sure what that was. On his 15th birthday, the researches decided they'd send him to Hinan-Sho, so he could learn to control his powers; and to see if they could determine his real ability.
