Personality Profile: Arrogant and Intelligent, Dr Corwell is obsessed with perfection and validation. His new role as a super villain has caused him to re-evaluate his life's goals, having now decided that powered individuals, mutant or otherwise, are essential to the social evolution of humans all over the planet.

Physical Description: Tall and lean, balding. after the event that turns him into Helsbane, Corwell will resemble a partially disembodied skeleton. The only parts visible will be his arms from elbow to fingertips, his legs from knee down, pelvis, Spinal column three inches from the rib cage to the top of the shoulders, And his skull and bottom jaw. His heart is also visible under his ribs
---------------------------------

General Power Information: Quantum Phasing and Energy vampirism

Ability One: Partial Intangibility

Before the accident, Helsbane's harness allowed him to be totally intangible. Now, the parts of Helsbane that are invisible are permanently intangible. Only parts that are visible can be accurately struck, making him difficult to hit. The visible parts are, again, his arms from elbow to fingertips, his legs from knee down, pelvis, Spinal column three inches from the rib cage to the top of the shoulders, And his skull and bottom jaw. His heart is also visible under his ribs. Physical attacks pass through the gaps in the disembodied visage, but striking at or near the skeleton always yields success.

Ability Two: Energy Absorption and Expulsion

Simply Put, Helsbane can absorb electricity, fire and most types of radiation and focus them in a concentrated burst attack. This ability is somewhat unconscious, and coupled with the urban areas in Salem, gives him a ready supply of energy whenever he needs it. This is something he refers to as 'snacking throughout the day'.

Ability Three: Flight

by manipulating ionic fields Helsbane can levitate and move himself around in the air. He cannot fly fast- maximum 50 mph- without dipping into his energyreserves. Any faster and he burns out quickly.

Drawbacks & Weaknesses:

Considering himself more of a mastermind than your garden-variety villain, Helsbane usually prefers to engage at a distance, very rarely trading blows toe-to-toe.

His appearance is also very grandiose, making and very easy to spot, especially with the Smokey wafting radiation emanating from under his cloak.

Power-wise, Helsbane does have a limit to how much energy he can safely store within his body. This is a limit he has not either figured out or discovered yet. Though it is considerable, holding too much could conceivably cause his body to break down, even going into a form of nuclear meltdown.

Skills: (
Doctorate in Nuclear Physics
Doctorate in Physics
Masters in Engineering

Background: Born to a wealthy family in London, Orvis Corwell was a genius from the word Go. Sadly. he was also aware of this. He was never popular, but never cared, for he felt his future as a great mind was guaranteed. sadly again, His lack of humility forced him to work in 'substandard jobs' at 'menial laboratories'. Eventual, his own science venture failed, forcing him to a life of crime. He embezzled a hefty sum from Prospect Labs, his own company, to fund the Quantum Flux Variation Harness and begin his life of crime.

His criminal endeavors at that point ended with his harness in the hands of Cobalt Hill and his body irreparably damaged, leaving him a disembodied skeleton wreathed in toxic Flame.
