Appearance: Maximillion may speak very intelligently, but he would not look like it, for he has heard people refer to him as the crazy guy, due to his abnormally skinny figure. Sure, he's got some muscle in there, but he still looks a bit anorexic. His hair is dark, usually crew cut, and there is always light facial hair on his face. His eyes are a light green color, and his nose is rather bulbous, but it works with his defined features.

Super Powers: Maximillion's machine has caused his molecules to be incredibly unstable, and would be found in a moving gel state. This state is a transluscent flesh-tone and has no real human traits to speak of. However, he has designed a machine that has allowed his molecules to stabilize into his human form. However, he soon found a way to test his machine. He made a smaller version, watch-sized to be exact, that stablizes his molecules enough for him to retain his human shape, but loose enough for him to manipulate them. He now has the ability to look like anyone he wishes. Once sound became an issue, he crafted a small device that hooks into the roof of his mouth and alters the sound waves that exit his mouth, altering his voice to anyone who hear it. Through the meteor and his technology, he has the ability to become anyone in the world, and a few he's made up.
Learned Abilities: Genius-level intellect in Biomechanics
Equipment: His watch (see super powers)
Weaknesses (Must Have): He is a very greedy person, caring only about himself and his inventions. He has gone far enough to actually call his creations his 'children' and will do anything to protect them. However, that is not to say that he will die for them, just allow himself massive injury before they're to come to harm. In terms of powers, he does have a couple of flaws. The main being he cannot copy powers. He can do what he can to fake it, but he can never make an exact copy. Also, since his body is mostly a gel, he has to try to keep from getting large amounts of pressure on his body, or his identity will be revealed.
Background:Maximillion was born into a high-class family. However, this was not the dream life most people think of when they have tons of money. His parents were never around, and when they were, they mostly ignored him. As he grew up, he began to develop anger towards them, that would eventually lead to anger towards all of humanity. He found himself ignoring other, simply playing with his toys. The one toy he played with more than others, was his talking robot toy. It was his best friend and went everywhere with him. This was until a much bigger kid than he was destroyed it. His anger had begun to grow.
As he grew up, he began to become vastly independent, never doing much of anything with anyone. It was on one of his usual movie nights, since his parents didn't watch him anyway, that he found what would change his life forever, a sci-fi movie. It was there he decided to get his career in mechanics, and had done so successfully. He was in the top 5 of his high-school class, and was easily accepted into NYU. After graduating he had begun his creation of his molecular control unit, or MCU.
It was on his way to work when a meteor hit just off the coast of New York, and he found a piece of the meteor lodged in his car. He found the space rock had large amounts of energy circuiting through it, and it could've have supercharged the MCU. However, upon starting the machine, a bolt flew from it and struck him, de-stabilizing his molecules and turning him into a gel-like state. After several experitations, a much greater struggle due to his new form, he found a way to re-stabilize his molecules using the MCU. However, it was difficult to maintain his form for more than an hour, and built a portable version, but had a much weaker hold on his molecules. It was during one late night test that he found he had the ability of metamorphosis, and decided to enact revenge on all who hurt him, starting with a man named Dr. Jason Morrison, a man who made a fool out of Maximillion during a meeting, by calling the MCU a worthless piece of junk that had no logical purpose.
Personality : To say the least, Maximillion is original. He has an unnatural obsession with machines, mostly due to his parent's neglection of him, which left him untrusting of humans. He views his creations as his family, and protects them in any way he can. This is not to say he does not know how to act around humans. He is an intellectual man and acts as such around others. He speaks with proper english and presents himself very formally.
He is also incredibly self-dependent, not being able to really trust other people. This is why he loves his powers so much, because he can now talk to 'others' that he feels he can trust. However, his powers have also led to him having an unnatrual obsession with transforming, spending days at a time in some else's body, simply because he finally has some else to talk to.

Brief Sample Roleplay Maximillion woke up at about one in the morning, with a strange food craving in his stomach. He got up, his eyes barely open and walked into the kitchen. He took several steps towards the kitchen, before almost falling from lack of sight. He opened his eyes a little wider and made it into the kitchen. He opened the refridgerator and began digging around in it, looking for his jar of raisins. Soon, he found them, at the back of the fridge, and stretched his arm out to grab them. "Ah, nature's candy." he said, before placing the jar on the table.
He walked over and opened it, before noticing something strange. He examined his arms and found one to be much longer than the other. It was the arm that reached for the raisins. However, as he began to think about his arm's new length, it began to return to normal. Soon, he found himself trying experiments on other body parts, his mind commanding them to change. Finally, after learning what this potential was he smiled and said, "Now, Mr. Baxter, I hope you like surprises, because your in for a doozy."
