Name: Algernon. (Please don't call him Algy, he's heard it before and it's not funny. Nor are jokes about mice.)
Gender: Male. Definitely.
Race: Boring ol human. Also has a huge, red worm gnawing on his skull.
Text Colour: #3B4990, derp derp
Biography: Algernon lived a happy childhood with his younger sister, which means, of course, something bad happens. His parents divorced when he was seven and while he stayed with his dad, his sister went with his mom. While he was a little unhappy with that, he lived with it. And then a few years later, the apocalypse happened. Okay, that's an exaggeration. Earth was simply pelted with some meteors (meteorites? I keep confusing them) that seemed to carry a bunch of space worms, all of them rather unique. The worms started latching on to certain people and these people gained great power and so on. The worms in turn fed off of them in some way. Of course, chaos ensued and those without space worms went into hiding while those with started forming gangs and started territory wars and blah blah blah. Algernon's dad died eventually, caught in the middle of one of the said wars and so he started wandering around to look for his sister. Algernon got a wormy pal while scavenging around in a city for some food. Opening a trashcan, the thing jumped him. He doesn't really mind it, though it is a little itchy.
Items/Abilities: Algernon doesn't really have anything much besides the worm on his head and a gun that he never bothered to load. The ability lent to him by the worm is the ability to create pretty much anything, but as soon as he uses it, the worm starts eating his memories, which he'd really like to keep, thank you very much. He usually uses it to create bullets (normal or otherwise) because he usually could just dismiss them as soon as they shot someone and thus use up the least amount of memories.
Description: Algernon is pretty filthy. An apocalypse does that to you. The worm covers most of his black hair, but it still peeks out (long hair yaaaay). He is covered with dirt and quite grimy. He wears a faded navy blue turtleneck under a blue vest and very worn jeans. His sneakers are pretty holey. He is pretty scrawny and pale, though it's hard to tell under all the dirt. He wears a silver locket that has a picture of his sister in it. Algernon is not exactly a violent person. He's more of a diplomat type. And although he is very determined to get back to his sister again, he tends to find himself helping all sorts of people. He's a sucker for sob stories. He's rather laid back and friendly. He doesn't like to rely on his power, instead trying to use some quick thinking and leaving the whole 'creating' thing as a last resort.
