''Ralph Matheson'' spent much of his young life in the shadow of his father's accomplishments as an important scientist.

As someone who lived growing up in the shadow of his father's accomplishments in physics and engineering, Ralph Matheson wished he could pass up the pressure he had placed on him for following in the footsteps of those successes. Despite his good grades and potential career opportunities waiting in the wings, Ralph had other goals and dreams... none of which included becoming a superhero.

During an unveiling of Harmon Industries-produced technology that harnessed quantum energies, a seventeen year old Ralph-- invited to the affair by his father, who was a project lead-- was handed a working prototype of one of the display inventions instead of a defunct model. Unawares of this, Ralph accidentally activated the device and was strongly exposed to the peculiar force it contained. As a result, Ralph's body inexplicably gained the ability to generate its own quantum field.

While Harmon was able to prevent any PR disaster related to the incident, the project collectively lost funding in favor of less-riskier ventures and-- despite a hefty financial pay out made in due of his son's sudden empowerment-- Dr. Matheson resigned from the company in fear that Ralph could be used as a potential guinea pig under his watch. Ralph's father went to great lengths to encourage him to harness the gifts that were (rather unintentionally) given to him, for something greater than either of them could accomplish.

Some years later, as Atomac, Ralph has grown into the role of one of Millennium City's most steadfast heroes: teaching criminals that size does not matter when it comes to who brings them to justice.


Information

Physical Attributes

Without taking his abilities into consideration, Ralph has an average build for someone his age that undergoes a semi-regular physical regimen. However, his physical profile when at rest can vary by a wide margin of inches and pounds.

Atomac can easily assume measurements between two inches and sixty-five feet before straining himself-- additionally, his mass can range from virtually weightless to tonnes without any large detrimental effect on his mobility.

Powers and Abilities

  • Energy Generation: Atomac's physiological state constantly produces a form of quantumized energy. He is able to project excess reserves of this energy as concussive waves of kinetic force.
  • Size Shifting: The power for which he is best known, Atomac is able to alter his own size, mass and density at will.
  • Super Strength and Durability: Quantumized energy has reinforced Atomac's cellular structure similar to that of a personal sheath, increasing his strength and resistance to physical trauma. This does not diminish as he shrinks, but becomes more pronounced as he takes on sizes larger than his state-at-rest.
  • Enhanced Movement: Atomac has shown capability of leaping great distances as well as unassisted flight. It's hard to tell what mode of travel he prefers.

Equipment and Other Paraphernalia

  • Atomac's costume...

Personality and Attitude

Associations

Supergroup

Protectors of the World

Thundrax - Atomac has many chances to be around this respected veteran hero due to his previous ties to the Sentinels, counting him as an occasional sparring partner in addition to being a source of advice and encouragement on several occasions. Likewise, Atomac has seen Craig at his best and worst: notably witnessing Thundrax during the weeks following his supposed "sacrifice" to stop an unnatural storm over Millennium City.
Captain Adamant - The "Unbreakable Man" oversaw Atomac's recruitment into the Protectors, from their initial meeting at the Barlowe Building to a hastily organized team-up to conduct a rescue operation-- in which Ralph impressed the more experienced hero with his own strength, toughness and tenacity.

Allies

Astron - Acquainted by way of Thundrax, Atomac once helped this cosmically-powered hero save the day from an alien invasion of Westside by a cannibalistic race.
Red Spider - Initially meeting shortly before a short-lived disappearance, they have since shared the truth behind their identities and continue to hang out from time to time when they are not busy with their group activities.
Watchman - Met by circumstance when both aimed to protect Mayor Biselle from a kidnapping, that led to an encounter with one of the Watchman's rogues gallery.

The Silver Age Sentinels is his former team. Despite not actively working together, Atomac still counts the group's members-- many of whom he worked alongside as a Young Sentinel-- as acquaintances.

Enemies

RP Prompts

  • He can be seen in Carl's Gym as either his heroic or civilian identity.
  • Seems to know quite a few visitors from alien worlds, for some reason or another.
