The Salazar Cousins

Alpha's design based on/inspired by @block-swing-perry's Nephew!Alpha AU

Character Lore Below

Alpha "Alphonse"

Adult

it/he

shirt was custom made by Violeta from five other shirts (he has five variants of it he switches through)

Alpha escaped the Null-Void and after trashing Ben's dimension a bit with Malware, returned post-Cure event

Caesar agreed to build him a stable, proper body as the world wasn't ending around them and there isn't anyone breathing down his neck about it anymore

Initially strained relationship with Cesar, but it has gotten better over the years

has been protective of Violeta since it found her petri-dish

very much encouraging her mischievous/rebellious side

was initially conflicted with Roman- on one hand there's a person just like it who's just as confused about everything as it was, on the other hand, there was a bit of jealousy of him instantly having a stable form and not having to fight for a place in the family (Violeta's favoring her new playmate didn't help matters) but quickly grew just as fond of the little scaredy cat

he is still able to possess/mutate technology, but it wrecks his body and destabilizes him for a while so he only does it in emergencies

still has the schematics for the original ultimatrix

usually exploring the world

knows the Null-Void better than anyone but refuses to help the Plumbers since they keep sending it there (very rude, Cesar just opens a portal to where it is but it's still annoying)

Was in the Null-Void with Kevin, both when he was a child and when he was an adult

Remus Van Kleiss

When the Second Beta Nanite ended up in Van Kliess’s hands after Black Knight’s modifications, he hardly expected an entirely different organism to come out of it.

That didn’t mean he couldn’t take advantage of it. 

After all, what was raising one more EVO,

Details Below the Cut

Personality:

Reserved

Shy (keeps mostly to himdelf when he’s not with Van Kleiss or Bio Wulf.)

Classy 

Sassy

Optimistic

Dry sense of humor

Honorable 

Unempathetic

Quirks:

Due to the Nature of his nanite, he’s a little grabby (especially when he’s younger) When he’s nervous, he’ll reach out for hand or a sleeve to hold when going through crowded places

Doesn’t really speak verbally unless he has to; he infinitely prefers talking through the nanites (think No Face). 

He goes around barefoot most of the time to activate his surround nanites and feel the environment around him.

Likes:

plants

whatever books he can get his hands on

exploring 

the Pack

tinkering with his Powers

training 

Dislikes

Humans (with the select few exception)

Providence

gravel

getting caught sneaking out

sports (he cannot grasp what is so fascinating about it)

Roman Salazar 

cheating in a fight

Appearance:

Height: 5′11″

Hair: Flat black, ending just about the shoulders. It tends to cover his right eye.

Eyes: Very Dark Indigo

Skin: very pale (burns easy)

Narrow face with a square jaw

Glowing highlights etched into his skin show up as a faint, darker lines. 

Friends with

Bishop

Amber

Breach

Alexander

Notes:

Van Kliess regularly drains Remus of his nanites to keep himself alive. (Like Rapunzel for Mother Gothel) While he doesn’t mind,  it leaves the DNA lock open to new mutations.

This allows him to Copy other EVO’s mutations

An Osmosian of EVO’s if you will (with out the insanity)

He can only retain 3 new codings at a time however, after which he has to “Recopy” them from the EVO

This tends to manifest best in his hands and feet

Has 2 permanent codings

Van Kleiss’s Environmental Manipulation 

Black Knight’s builds (some)

He sneaks out of Abysus far more than Van Kleiss realizes thanks to Breach. 

Bishop and Amber make sure he knows how to have fun. 

[theangrycomet]

hey does Roman ever have the thing where under extreme duress he'll go try to go full Evo or go partial-Evo like Rex did when he was going to be disected?

Yes- though the Beta Nanite has different protocols' than Rex's original Nanites’ did.

While the Beta attempts to protect itself and its host, it is also programmed to contacts the Omega Nanite for aid during instances of extreme distress.

Let's just say Ben's not the only one with a "HOW DARE YOU!" moment in the CN Gen 2 verse.
