Background and Origin
Holden's Story
Recent Events
In Brief
Powers, Skills, and Attributes
Powers
Telekinesis - Holden has demonstrated a remarkable telekinetic ability, able to effect small engine parts and other miniscule elements as easily as he can throw cars around. His abilities only seem to be increasing with time. However, pushing his limits causes headaches, migraines and haemorrhaging.
Intuitive Aptitude - For much of his life, Holden has always had the ability to easily understand how complex systems work - car engines, electronics, people. It is more than simple deductive prowess - Holden never appears to be consciously aware of how much knowledge he has, just that if he looks at something he can understand how it all fits together (and how it is supposed to fit together). The ability was initially thought of as a form of telepathy or technopathy, but Holden demonstrated no such ability during UNTIL testing. Of Holden's key abilities, this is perhaps the most startling - and the most troublesome for the young man and those around him. Even this ability doesn't seem to counteract Holden's magic blindness - given his logical, systems-based view of the world, this would make sense. Worryingly, Holden believes that with practice this ability would allow him to understand deterministic cause and effect.
Regeneration? - Holden is remarkably durable and appears to possess limited regenerative capacity.
Skills
Grease Monkey - Jim Holden is a capable mechanic, even before he expressed his powers. He is primarily used to working on automotive components but can also work on a manner of different technologies including robotics (which is something of an interest of his).
Sharp Tongue - As someone once said, "For God's sake, don't let Holden open his mouth or we'll be up to our ears in trouble." Holden has this knack of being able to aggravate people in specific ways - or work his way into their good books.
Singing - Even the mighty Thundrax said he had a bit of a Michael Buble thing going on!
Attributes
Encyclopaedic Knowledge - Is there anything Jim Holden doesn't know or can't comment on? He's a hit at trivia nights.
Eagle Eyed - There isn't much that escapes Holden's notice.
Tolerant - Holden is difficult to annoy and finds it easy to interact with a wide-range of people.
Relationships
Family
Jim Holden, while enjoying a broad social network, does not seem to have any family or particularly close relationships. He has a wide breadth of acquaintances but little actual depth. The exception to this is possibly Dawn, a UNTIL DE:LTA operative whom he has been spotted with on several occasions. Holden has always declined to comment on the nature of their relationship - an oddity given his usually flippant tone and habit of speaking.
Friends/Allies
Jim Holden's wide ranging social network has given him a significant number of friends. The following is by no means an extensive list, but those who would be most likely to see him on a regular basis:
- Spiritbound - friend
- Elise LeRoux - fellow Champzone employee
- Suicide Queen - fellow Champzone employee
- Vex - friend
- Freddie Trigger - friend
- Killshot - friend
- Elain - friend
Enemies
Despite his brash and arrogant nature, Holden does not seem to have gathered too many enemies at this time. However, rumors persist of an on-going feud with the New Purple Gang's leader, Poe, due to Holden's insistence of wearing purple while he works in Westside.
