Name: Dexter Cornelius Oswald
Alias: Doc, Dex, Dr. Oswald
Sex: Male
Sexuality: Not interested
Race: Human
Powers/Abilities: Dexter is a genius, always has been since he was little; his ability to come up with plans, experiments, and the like gives him extraordinary capabilities and not one you want to face in a playing field - you might just find out how stupid you are.
Age: True Age - 24 / Appearance Age - 16 / Physical Age - 18
Height: 5’ 2”
Weight: 123 lb
Occupation: “Boy Genius” / Mad Scientist
Weapon(s): Dexter has created several successful experiments to make him more eligible for combat. Here are these battle, mechanical gloves that are nearly indestructible; unless doused with water (they will short circuit and possibly electrocute him to a great degree). He also has something he rather fondly calls the “laser gun”, which in fact, is a gun that fires out red hot lasers. An assortment of jetpacks, giant wrenches with secret qualities, deadly chemicals, and laser goggles, Dexter is a mad genius not to be played around with unless they want to be his next test subject.
Accessories: A belt under his white science cloak that holds an assortment of chemicals either to enhance himself or weaken a foe if need be. He also has a lighter he enjoys playing with when he ponders something. May have a scalpel hidden in his boots.
Appearance: Dexter has curly, fluffed up orange colored hair; a typical red head in that respect. He does not, however, have any freckles nor does he have green eyes. Dexter is pale, with piercing blue eyes hidden behind equally blue colored spectacles that are quite large. Sometimes he is seen with goggles of the same design, as well as a huge magnifying contraption connecting to a lens like a telescope. He is usually seen with a buttoned up lab coat that may or may not drag to the floor; and may have tears in it from previous escapades. He was dark purple or black, thick rubber gloves to keep his skin safe from the very dangerous chemicals that he works with regularly; and along with black leather pants,, he has on large, bulky blue or black boots; depending on his mood.
Although quite short, Dexter would have been much taller if his constant experimentation over his body had stopped; but using himself for science, he found that he could stop himself from aging - something he regretted years later. Even at age 18, he hadn’t exactly grown up in appearance and is stuck as a short, but gangly young man. His face is young, to say the least, but his eyes show his deep knowledge and intelligence despite his actual STILL young age.
Personality: Dex is easily irritated, especially if he is interrupted on one of his projects. He absolutely hates loud people and would most likely hit them if they said anything to him. Mad, to not beat around the bush, Dexter is very much insane, as his life’s work has driven him so. He generally talks to himself, sometimes in third person, and may even speak to inanimate objects (not including his robots). His confusing accent leads people to believe he is from Germany, or somewhere near there, but in fact he is just a kid from California that just somehow picked up a Pottsylvanian (mixture of Germanic accents and the like) accent to prove his mad scientist image.
Peace and quiet usually helps him concentrate, and if broken from said concentration he will rant - for a long time, until someone leaves or either tries to shut him up. For someone who doesn’t like loud people he is very loud himself. Dex also has a deep loathing for women, as said females have done nothing but harass him at a young age for being different. His mother wasn’t even an acceptation; wanting him to become athletic and be like his father, who was a vehicle engineer. As much as Dexter liked electronics and the like; he did not appreciate being forced to be like everyone else and so left them at the appropriate age.
Since then, he often carries a cold exterior, not letting anyone get close to him; and if he hears anyone making fun of his height and so forth? They won’t be laughing much longer. Not if he got his hands on his trusty laser gun.
When someone mentions anything mother related, or says something silly to the effect "didn't your mother ever blah blah" Dexter will completely zone out and become an utter wreck. The cause of this is unknown, but it eventually wears off in a couple hours at the most.
