As he was in life, he is slighly rotund. Midas powers are his golden touch(which he refuses to use against humans), and the gold properties of his body(It is ductile, which is both good and bad). He also can animate gold objects to a degree, which allows him to wear cloths. Midas is quite wealthy, although it does him little good as he can't benefit from most equipment(it just becomes gold). Despite his curse, Midas is quite personanable, and was a decent ruler. (He was originally rewarded for being hospitable to Dionysus's father.) </span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"><u><strong>Personality</strong></u></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px">Midas is(was) a king(and a decent one, at that), and this shows in his personality. While somewhat unsure in this era, he will attempt to lead if no-one else makes an effort. He feels a great responsiblity to help, but is fearful of what he can do. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p><p><u><strong>HISTORY</strong></u></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px">The story of King Midas is well known. How we was reward by Dionysus with a the power to turn things to gold with a touch, how he at first was overjoyed, but his joy was short lived when he discovered the extent of his curse. How he could not eat, and his touch even turned his own daughter into a statue. He fled the palace, and waited for death, and his postion was taked by his younger brother(leading to legands that Dionysus repealed the curse). </span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px">Midas waited for death upon a golden bier, but when it finally came, even it did not provide release. When Midas awoke, his entire body had turned to gold. All this did was increase his curse suffering though, as he no longer had the crass needs of mortals, but he still infliced gold with a touch, thus cutting him off from his own kind. The Golden King eventually learned to live with his curse, hiding, and using the one gift it gave him...incredibly wealth, to help others as much as he could. He was still cut off from humanity however, and yearned for companionship. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px">On the eve of the new millenium, his power changed. His body assumed more of the properties of gold, and more importantly, he actually had some control over it. This allowed him to wear cloths of gold, for he could make them as supple and moveable as the the rich cloth he wore in life. After hiding for a while he vowed to join the newly chartered team, while less powerful than many of them, he still hoped to have something to contribute(besides funding). </span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px">[sblock]</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px">I had a vague idea about him helping 'bankroll' the group a bit, although it would be more of a background thing/hook. Didn't want to write that in if it was a problem though. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px">[/sblock]</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 9px"></span></p></blockquote><p></p>

(Good Conductor) [U][B]COMPLICATIONS[/B][/U] Involuntary Transformation( :) ) aka Accidental 'Golding' of Objects or People [/sblock] [U][B]DESCRIPTION[/B][/U] [SIZE=1]Midas appears as a 5.8 golden human male with a full beard. As he was in life, he is slighly rotund. Midas powers are his golden touch(which he refuses to use against humans), and the gold properties of his body(It is ductile, which is both good and bad). He also can animate gold objects to a degree, which allows him to wear cloths. Midas is quite wealthy, although it does him little good as he can't benefit from most equipment(it just becomes gold). Despite his curse, Midas is quite personanable, and was a decent ruler. (He was originally rewarded for being hospitable to Dionysus's father.) [U][B]Personality[/B][/U] Midas is(was) a king(and a decent one, at that), and this shows in his personality. While somewhat unsure in this era, he will attempt to lead if no-one else makes an effort. He feels a great responsiblity to help, but is fearful of what he can do. [/SIZE] [U][B]HISTORY[/B][/U] [SIZE=1]The story of King Midas is well known. How we was reward by Dionysus with a the power to turn things to gold with a touch, how he at first was overjoyed, but his joy was short lived when he discovered the extent of his curse. How he could not eat, and his touch even turned his own daughter into a statue. He fled the palace, and waited for death, and his postion was taked by his younger brother(leading to legands that Dionysus repealed the curse). Midas waited for death upon a golden bier, but when it finally came, even it did not provide release. When Midas awoke, his entire body had turned to gold. All this did was increase his curse suffering though, as he no longer had the crass needs of mortals, but he still infliced gold with a touch, thus cutting him off from his own kind. The Golden King eventually learned to live with his curse, hiding, and using the one gift it gave him...incredibly wealth, to help others as much as he could. He was still cut off from humanity however, and yearned for companionship. On the eve of the new millenium, his power changed. His body assumed more of the properties of gold, and more importantly, he actually had some control over it. This allowed him to wear cloths of gold, for he could make them as supple and moveable as the the rich cloth he wore in life. After hiding for a while he vowed to join the newly chartered team, while less powerful than many of them, he still hoped to have something to contribute(besides funding). [sblock] I had a vague idea about him helping 'bankroll' the group a bit, although it would be more of a background thing/hook. Didn't want to write that in if it was a problem though.
