Full Name: Paul Joseph Sellers
Nickname(s): Paulie, Blue Guy, Dragon Man
Age: 23
Height: 6' 3"
Weight: 200 lbs.
Gender: Male
Race: Human, dragon reincarnate
Alliance: Good
Home: WAS Washington, now PHASE headquarters in an undisclosed location
Franchise: OC
Physical Description
While Paul is proportioned similarly to a normal human, he has distinctly draconic, semi-demonic traits. He has blue, scaly skin; dark blue, shoulder-length hair; yellow, snake-like eyes; pointed ears; sharp teeth; claws; nubby, dark blue, semi-developed horns; and a pointed, prehensile tail. He tends to dress casually, typically preferring dark or neutral colors; his usual attire is a pine green tee-shirt with a white tee-shirt underneath, black jeans, grey and white converses, and occasionally a black jacket hoodie.
Weapons and Accessories
Paul prefers not to use weapons, but if he must, he's good with melee weapons, particularly daggers or knives.
Abilities/Powers
His skin is extremely dense and tough, immune to electricity, highly resistant against damage, and able to withstand blows from most blades and slow-moving projectiles. His strength, endurance, agility, speed, reflexes, and healing factor are well beyond the peak of natural human potential. His senses are also incredibly well-tuned, particularly his sight and hearing; he can see clearly in near total darkness and hear virtually anything within a hundred-yard radius. Recently, he has also discovered the power to breathe lightning, which can manifest as a single large bolt in its weakest form, but has the potential to grow into an enormous, self-contained electrical field.
Weaknesses
The biggest thing that his skin cannot tolerate is acid, exposure to which will severely deteriorate and loosen his scales. Though his tolerance for fire is greater than human skin, prolonged exposure can be similarly damaging. Physical weaknesses aside, he's also unskilled and uncomfortable in combat.
Skills
Despite his lack of combat know-how, Paul's innate physical abilities make him a great acrobat and hand-to-hand fighter. He's an experienced engineer, a quick thinker –sometimes even a deep thinker– and is good at thinking on his feet, whether the situation he's in is physical or emotional. His dragon soul seems to have provided him with an inherent knowledge of the draconic language. He's also a pretty great singer and dancer, and he won't hesitate to let you know that.
Personality
Paul has a very optimistic, vibrant, friendly and empathetic nature, making him highly reliable and easy for just about anyone to get along with. He always tries to keep his chin up and put his best foot forward, displaying a love for adventure and discovery, and a caring attitude towards those who have not betrayed his trust. While he usually strives to remain positive, if a devastating emotion hits him, it hits him HARD, which can sometimes render him indecisive or compulsive. He's not one for self-pity, however; when confronted with something he can't explain via intuition or introspection, his standard reaction is to cast it aside and convince himself that nothing is wrong. The thing he cares about most is making other people happy, and while this does stem mostly from his genuinely kind and enthusiastic disposition, he can't act like part of him isn't acting out of a desire to belong.
History
Paul grew up in the Pacific Northwest with his parents, his older brother Scott, his younger brother Troy, and his little sister Anne. He was born with the appearance of a normal human, though he and his family were unaware that he possessed the reincarnated soul of a dragon. By age six, the dormant power in his soul started to evoke physical changes to match his dragon heritage. This metamorphosis seemed to last until his pubescent years, by which point Paul had developed blue, scaly skin, blue hair, yellow eyes, fangs, claws, and a tail. Each member of his family reacted differently to his transformation: his mother was empathetic yet overly protective; his father avoided and practically disowned him; Scott harassed him; Troy resented him; Anne was terrified of him.
When Paul was fourteen, he convinced his parents to let him go out on Halloween. At their mother's insistence, Scott begrudgingly brought him to a friend's party. When Scott let slip that Paul wasn't wearing a costume, Paul was quickly outed and humiliated by the drunken teens, and pictures of him eventually made it online. This caught the attention of the Paranormal Humanitarian Administration for Scientific Exploration, a Men in Black-type agency that aided both humans and supernatural beings using the benefits of both. PHASE sent representatives to the Sellers home to peacefully offer Paul a place among their organization, which Paul eventually accepted to save his family from humiliation.
In the years that followed, Paul easily integrated into PHASE and was treated in turn with care and respect. He finished his schooling at their facility, made both human and non-human friends, and developed his skills as an engineer, which he used to assist PHASE scientists on various projects and inventions. One day, Paul, now in his early twenties, was working on one such invention when it went haywire, briefly opened a rift in spacetime, and dropped him into another dimension. While exploring this new world, he met Kenny McCormick, an impoverished ten-year-old boy who had also been transported there by happenstance, and offered to share a hotel room with him. Since then, though Paul has made contact with the people back at PHASE, he has opted to stay on the island to explore and conduct research on PHASE's behalf.
During his time spent on the island, Paul has received several clues regarding his draconic heritage, developed new attributes and powers (namely his horns and lightning breath), and made many more friends. He knows he still has a lot to discover about himself, but he's in no rush. Might as well enjoy the opportunity he has been afforded.
