Complications
Power Loss: Bastion loses his powers and his Str and Sta are reduced to 3 under conditions that produce radiation similar to those produced by Class M through Class Y stars.

Relationships: Bastions closest relationship is with his family, his mother, and stepfather.

I'm No Hero: Bastion is weighed by a powerful sense of self-doubt. He is not a hero, he never asked to have powers and he just wants to be a normal guy. Constant fear grips him that he will fail or accidentally hurt someone. As a result, Bastion cannot spend Hero Points. His survival instinct is still active and he can still spend them to save his own skin, however.

Just A Guy: Gabriel Sebastian Stone, just a regular guy trying to survive his first year of college.

Vulnerability: Bastion is as vulnerable to magic as anyone else. His Toughness is not Impervious against magical attacks.

Weakness: Bastion is vulnerable to an incredibly rare and difficult to produce sound waves that stimulate the Delta Waves in his brain. The frequency saps the Strength and powers of Bastion, leaving him impaired, disabled, and eventually debilitated in terms of Strength and power effects. Long-term exposure (usually a matter of minutes) imposes the dying condition and may lead to death. The frequency has far less effect on humans, little to none unless exposed over a long period of time, in which case catatonia and irreversible comas can result.

Defense
Dodge 8, Parry 8, Fortitude 12, Toughness 12, Will 8

Bastion is half alien. His father was from a distant world, Lantea in the Pegasus Galaxy, which has been very interested in Earth and its culture since very early in mankind's evolution. Unfortunately for his species the radiation given off by the yellow sun of Earth is cancerous and deadly to Lanteans, but at the same time affords them super human capabilities. When he was forced to land on Earth after debris damaged his craft, Briel-Ta had no way home and no way of reaching out and communicating with his people. Although it took several years, the radiation of the planet sickened the man and he eventually, but not before he fell in love and left behind his legacy

Sebastian's (he doesn't like going by Gabriel) father died of skin cancer two months before he was born. It never really stopped him from being an average kid though. Eventually his mother remarried to a guy named John Wright and with him came his daughter Megan Wright, who was only a year younger than Sebastian. Those three are really the only family Sebastian has ever known in home of Hardin, Montanta where the entire county's population is only 13,000.

Since puberty Sebastian's alien physiology began taking root and absorbing the radiation of Earths yellow sun. Like a battery charging hes slowly grown more powerful and awakened more and more powers and honestly hes scared. He had to quit the football team because his throws could break ribs and his tackles could put kids in traction. He doesn't feel the urge to eat, or drink, and his world has become a lonely place since he lost the need to sleep. The town he lives in thinks hes a freak and his friendships have dwindled to practically nothing.

His mother knows about his fathers origins, but hasn't said anything, yet. Shes afraid of losing of losing her son the same way she lost the man of her dreams all those years ago. She fears what Sebastian will do once he finds out she lied to him all these years and kept such a world shattering secret from him.

Sebastian's human side is whats keeping him alive and safe. The unique coupling of human and Lantean DNA has made him immune to the cancerous effects of Earths radiation. Sebastian's only real weakness is a high level frequency that stimulates the Delta Waves of the brain. This actually shuts down the portions of his brain that governs and regulates control of his Lantean genetics that permit his powers to function.

People in Bastions Life-

Connie Wright Bastions mom. As a mommas boy, Bastion loves his mother dearly and although he suffers the same embarrassing moments as any kid does, he still appreciates all she does for him. Loving to a fault Sebastian is the one thing she has left of the only man she ever truly found happiness with. She fears whats ahead for him and knows she cant protect him from the world but that doesn't stop her from trying.

John Wright John, like Connie, suffered the loss of his spouse, his wife, Lisa, died while giving birth to their daughter, Megan. A good, hard working man who has taught Bastion everything a man needs to know about being a man: honesty, integrity, hard work and, of course, football. Although not his real father, John has loved and cared for Bastion like he was all these years. Through good times and bad, every grounding and even through the talk John has done all he could to raise the boy right. Bastion looks up to and respects John a great deal, but can he help Bastion through the rough times ahead of him?

Megan Wright Megan is Bastions stepsister, but they've always treated each other like they were from the same parents. While completely human, if texting and Facebook were super powers Megan would be in the Cosmic tier of heroes (or villains, depending on the latest drama at school). Only a few months apart in age, the two get along like typical brother and sister. They have their share of bouts and arguments but in the end they are family nothing will ever come between that will it?
