Background
Mike grew up fairly normal. His parents are loving and supportive, but also give him space to be his own man. His unique friendship with Ray begin in elementary school and they have remained good friends ever since (until fairly recently). He was often involved in various shenanigans dealing with Ray Jr. and Sr.'s villain heritage though he came out no worse for wear.
His powers activated less than a year ago; he has yet to tell his parents and still does not know exactly where they come from. He half-suspects that they are somehow related to the various exposure to crazy things at Ray's place. He ended up 'joining' the Young Renegades after helping to stop a bank robbery, but has remained largely uninvolved in the hero side of things due to his commitments to school as well as believing the group to be far above his skill level. Ray's recent adoption of magic and flashy, popular style has made Micheal feel incredibly inferior as well as a bit bitter. When Mike was normal, he was fun and well liked for his upbeat attitude and party loving ways. With powers, he feels like he has to compare himself to his teammates.
Recently, Mike actually hasn't done much of anything. Due to his own self-doubt, he hung up the costume for nearly three months, avoiding contact with his teammates and even his best friend, Devil Ray. It was only recently, after he found out the traumatic events surrounding the reveal of Devil Ray's heritage, did he put decide to give it another shot.
Grace Memorial High School
Mike is (maybe)going to Grace Memorial High. I cannot remember.
Appearance And Personality
Mike is a laid back kid; he dresses casually and just seems like every other kid on the block. Out heroing, he wears a thrown together costume from home that seems to do him well so far; cool jacket, thematic shirt, domino mask, and his favorite pair of sneakers. Can't go wrong.
Personality wise, he is generally nice; likes to goof off and pretend to overreact to things to get a laugh out of people. Privately, however, he has an inferiority complex after coming into his powers. Despite their incredibly usefulness and utility, he finds them limiting and is unsure of how to effectively use them. Seeing his teammates and best friend, Devil Ray, routinely use their powers to great affect discourages him. In an ironic twist, it is his lack of confidence that is limiting his powers potential. Subconsciously, the strength of his armor and their effects are tied to his strength of will. If he were able to realize his usefulness, he could truly be something great.
Allies And Enemies
Young Renegades
Powers And Abilities
Kevlar has the ability to create a psionic form of armor around his body. This armor can surround his entire form but he prefers to have it in small plates in vital areas; currently he is still too new and unsure of himself and his abilities to maintain full armor for long. The armor can be shaped if he concentrates hard enough; perhaps it turns into a knight's plate or a riot shield on his arm. It also allows him to hit with extreme force. The armor is tough to break though high impact rounds at close range, extreme physical attacks by 'Bricks', and wavering in his confidence can all 'shatter' the armor for a time being. Not only does this open him up to attack, but it also gives him an extreme mental backlash, resulting in terrible migraines.
