Real Name: Unrevealed Aliases: Michael Lance Code Name: Apollo Identity: Secret Occupation: Bartender, Business Owner Citizenship: Unrevealed, presumed dual Greek and U.S. citizenship Place of Birth: Greece Date of Birth: Unrevealed Known Relatives: None Group Affiliation: Independant Education: Michael appears to be highly educated in ancient history and has advanced technological knowledge. Height: 6' Weight: 220 lbs. Eyes: Blue Hair: Black Abilities: Through intense training Michael has vastly sharpened his senses to an extent that is unknown, and is highly skilled in hand-to-hand combat as well as firearms. Weapons: Various projectile weapons Powers Apollo is thought to be an Omega level energy manipulator, though he seldom his abilities due to his disconnection from his abilities and his alcoholism. He instead often prefers to use hand-to-hand combat and conventional weapons. Apollo's life force is augmented by cosmic energy and he has total mental control over his physical form and bodily processes even when he is asleep or unconscious. As a result he is, immune to disease and invulnerable to conventional forms of injury. Should Apollo be injured somehow, he could regenerate any injured or missing tissue. Cosmic energy bolsters Apollo's metabolism so that he does not tire from any physical exertion. Apollo can levitate himself by mentally manipulating gravitons around himself. He can also levitate other persons and objects, even while simultaneously levitating himself. Apollo is able to fly via self-levitation at approximately Mach 1.1. Apollo can project cosmic energy in the form of beams from his eyes or beams and flashes from his hands. This cosmic energy, stored in specialized enclaves of cells in his body, can be used as force, heat, light, and possibly other forms of electromagnetic energy. Apollo can project a maximum concussive force of at least 260 pounds per square inch. He can project heat of a maximum temperature of at least 3,000 Fahrenheit, hot enough to melt iron. It takes about one minute for him to attain this maximum temperature. Because Apollo's heat beams can vaporize solid objects, they are often called his disintegrator beams, The maximum range for his energy beams is about 200 feet. The expenditure of cosmic energy in this way continually for several hours will temporarily deplete Apollo's physical strength, but not his resistance to injury, although it will temporarily increase his sensitivity to pain. He will rapidly return to normal after such lengthy energy expenditure is over. History Little is known about about Michael before he arrived in New York a few years ago. He tends to have a dark sense of humor and often prefers to play devil's advocate. He also has more than a slight drinking problem, made only worse by the fact that he owns his own bar "Haven". He has some sort of working relationship with Charles Xavier, but has refused offers to join the X-Men on several occasions, prefering simply to stay out of mutant affairs and avoid other people's problems as much as he could. |
