What can one expect from an artist? Although he's not full-time, Mikhail Himura is working on improving his natural talent at NYU. He'll be able to figure out what exactly he is doing sooner or later.

History

Living by New York's standards didn't take too long to figure out to those who found themselves within the state's borders. Between city limits and open countrysides, all things had a certain sense of normalcy to them. That's what it was - unspoken rules to set an order of normalcy. No questions asked.

Personality

Whenever the word "artist" comes up, it just screams "stereotype." Mikhail doesn't fit in with every single detail listed, but he is not immune to having at least some of them attached to his personality. Still, he makes up for it.

Abilities

A very strange name, but very fitting. Psychic Voodoo: the ability to mentally dominate a person's physical movements by acting out the same movements or having enough experience to control the target with simple thoughts. Technology, other non-organic items, and those who have already expired are exempt from control; all three lack a mind and soul in order to make a body react accordingly. Animals, while simple-minded, do have complex workings of their own, setting a different level of technicalities and understanding needed to be able to use and control. Plants are also living things, but they have no mind to help achieve full possession.

Stunts

  • MARIONETTE: With the newfound ability to "puppet" a person, Mikhail can only do low-level forms of control. He can only use it on one target at a time; his focus needs some fine tuning and adjustments, but he will be able to do that as he goes along. Although subtle movements are ideal, Mikhail takes it a step further. He will literally hit himself in order for the mental connection to click and manipulate his opponent's motor skills. Maybe just tap his own body in certain places, implying the voodoo doll part of the ability's description. A tap on the face, and the controlled target punches himself there. If he does it harder, then it will bring pain to both parties. Hopefully he will be able to stop injuring his own body once he has gotten a better grip on his ability.

Must have a +roll of GOOD or greater to succeed. To defend against it, opponents must +roll WILLPOWER GOOD or greater to break away from it.

  • SIMON SAYS: When focusing the ability on a singer target less physical action is required. Mikhail is able to influence a person's actions without having to force them mirror his own movements. Verbal commands can be said to reinforce the thought and Mikhail may resort to repeating it just like the leader in the children's game. His focus is a little better but he still gets distracted fairly easily. It can be improved upon as he progresses.

A +roll of GOOD or greater can enable the act to work properly. However opponents can +roll WILLPOWER of GOOD or greater to resist the command.

  • THRILLER: Useful during musical numbers. If he can Mikhail will use it on a target to set up his own mental music video. Backup dancers are a must. The Michael Jackson group routines are prominent but it doesn't stay within that particular style of dancing. Whatever moves he pulls the other dancer will do the same. Or to the best of their abilities anyway. He'll probably just use it to screw with people's sense of pride if they have any . It's another way of telling them to loosen up? Maybe even 'anytime's a great time for a musical break!'

A +roll of GOOD or higher will suffice unless the target's -stubborness- WILLPOWER wins over it. SPECIAL NOTE: _This is just there._
