Appearance:Tall and extremely muscular, Atrid has red hair and blue eyes. His skin an alabastor white, he has a trio of scars that look like it could have come from claws down the left side of his face and a a long deep scar down his right eye to his upper lip. He is seen wearing usually a black tshirt tight enough to show off his muscles yet loose enough to allow ease of movement. He wears black jeans that are loose fitting for comfort and a black leather trench coat depicted on the trench coat sleeves are Mjolnir with lightning going down the sleeves. On the front of the trench coat is a depiction of the great father wolf Fenris.Over the trench coat Atrid wears a leather vest on the back of the vest is the word Ragnarok and underneath is a picture depicting Thor battling Jormungdr with the word Midgard written underneath it. On the front of the vest is patches saying Death before Dishonor, and I do not fear going to Valhalla. Hes usually wearing a pair of black boots and black fingerless leather gloves. During the day even when its overcast he wears a pair of sun glasses at all times.

Personality:Atrid is quiet and a bit of a loner, he tends to keep to himself, mostly because most people view his size as intimidating, that and the less people he gets close to the less chance there is of betrayal. But once youve gotten close to Atrid and gained his trust and respect. You have his trust respect and loyalty for life. Atrid is a man of few words in his opinion if it doesnt take a lot of thought and a long time to say its not really worth saying. Though he breaks that philosophy from time to time, he is wise beyond his years and puts everything he has into everything he does. His desire to be the best at whatever it is that he does. Over all though Atrid is really not a people person he tends to get along better with animals than people, canines in particular. Atrid is also very devout in his religion follows ever word and all nine noble virtues. His Patron God is Thor and Matron goddess is Freyja.

Interests:Sword and axe play, martial arts, the occult, reading and writing, mythology, theology, and of course history with an emphasis on the medieval and Viking ages, and music he loves black metal and death metal. Atrid also likes to study Military strategy and plays both Chess and Go on a regular basis.

Skills:He is trained though by no means an expert in the arts of Viking swordsmanship and axe wielding. He is decent with throwing axes though he could still learn more, He is trained in Muay Thai, Brazillian Jujitsu, and Kung Fu. He plays Guitar well and writes stories and song lyrics as well as sagas and poems. Atrid is also a brilliant strategist for his age.

Abilities/Powers:Atrid has the ability to manipulate control and conduct electrical currents to be able to use them to his advantage. Even being able to use them to his advantage be generating lightning from his fingers or eyes at his enemies. He also has the ability to commune with (Talk to and understand) animals of all types again he prefers canines. When Atrid was three his powers started surfacing at first causing power surges and telling his parents what their dog wanted as if the dog could tell him.

History:Atrid was born in Oslo Norway. The first few years of his life were great he was happy and content life couldnt be any better for him. When Atrid turned three strange things started to happen he started accidentally causing power surges and blowing out lights or entire electrical systems. Talking to the family dog and telling his parents exactly what she wanted as if the dog were talking to him as well. After a couple of years of this they decided to leave Norway to come to the states with Atrid so they wouldnt be targeted by anyone and they could have a fresh start in a new place and try and live a peaceful life. Atrid was five when the family came in to New York City, they went through all the proper channels and became citizens. Over the next few years his powers grew and he was still having some trouble controlling them but for the most part he knew how to keep them under the radar as it were. When he was fifteen, his mother was attacked in an alleyway and mugged she was left to bleed out. Sadly his mother passed away that night. Atrid blamed himself, if hed gone with her if hed been there he could have stopped those muggers he could have prevented his mothers death. His father was never the same though he didnt blame Atrid, his father did begin drinking a lot and pushing Atrid to be better to excel more to hone his powers and abilities. Atrid wanted to do this for the betterment of the world his father wanted Atrid to be the best to get vengence for what happened to Atrids mother. By the time Atrid was eighteen hed been training himself though he wasnt as far along as he could have been with a trainer and mentor, the guilt had been eating away at him to the point where he became dark withdrawn and anti social causing him to become the man he is now. This is when Paradigm found him and offered to help him learn to better use his powers. He accepted and well here he is now.

Okay. There's only three major issues with this bio that need to be addressed.

First, he has an incredible amount of skills for an eighteen year old. I could see him having training in the various martial arts, but if he were to be exceedingly skilled in throwing axes and swordsmanship, he would likely be a novice at best in the other martial arts.

Second, as it stands, he technically has two powers. One being electricity manipulation, and one being the ability to talk to animals. By having two powers, each would technically be at half strength, meaning he would be technically weaker than someone who only had electricity manipulation. This is just so you're aware of how powers work on this board.

You also don't have a status, as to whether you are a junior or senior agent.
