Name:Leon Callus
Gender/Sex: Male
Age: 26
Height: 6'2
Physique: Anomaly is best described as a scrawny geek. His body still hasn't arrived at what could be considered proper proportions his bony limbs are long in comparison to a normal person of his height. On the plus side he doesn't need glasses, which could be truly crippling in a fight.
Hair: His hair is roughly 4 inches tall, tall not long because his hair invariably sticks out from his skull rather than any logical form. This was the case even before his power manifested. It is a lightish brown color.
Eyes: Clear blue
Clothing description: The typical outfit for Leon is a simple affair of blue jeans and some plain shirt. Perfect for a dirty construction job and Leon's lack of fashion sense.
Occupation: Construction Worker
Home City: Mercury City
Housing location: 381 Oakstone Lane
Backstory:Leon Callus was born to a small family in the suburbs outside Mercury City. He managed a normal childhood amidst all the stranger goings on around this superpowered city. Almost reflexively he turned to comics as a defense mechanism against reality. This is rather odd given that the comics often depicted real happenings or heroes, but on the pages of comics, it seemed less real.
Over the course of his teens this turned into a major hobby. The kind where you spend most of your allowance and get a dead-end job to feed it and go to conventions whenever possible. This naturally lead to a lacking social life. This also lead to a slight lapse in his otherwise stellar grades. Despite this he still got into a decent college.
Being unable to bring his comics with him he turned to video games as his new hobby. These he found even more addictive and his grades floored as he started not going to class. This led to him getting put on probation and eventually getting kicked out.
This led to him moving back in with his parents and starting that dead end job again. It was during this time that his power manifested and realizing the potential he quickly changed jobs to one where he could make use of it.
It was later that he though to actually do some good with it. He might even start collecting comics again just in case Anomaly gets turned into one.
Other:Now with more personality- Leon has been something of a failure, according to his peers for most of his school years and more recently by his parents. He disagrees with this perception quite vocally, but in his heart he is afraid they are right. After all he's never had a girlfriend, never really had a large circle of friends, and doesn't even know why he has powers.
Fact of the matter is luck seems to be about the only thing getting him through life. Sure he's decently smart, but he doesn't have a degree. For all his claims to be an independent thinker he hasn't done much of anything. Even his turn to heroism is just a copying of other heroes and comic books.
This lack of originality and fear of being a failure may lead him down a path of recklessness or even madness. As he seeks to prove that he can be something, that he is actually important the risks he'll take and the lengths he will go to will only increase.
