DynaWatt
Vangel Ivanov (a.k.a. DynaWatt)
Vangel Ivanov, better known as the hero DynaWatt, is one of the five members of the The Unbroken, and one of their two Imbued members. Vangel was the fifth and final member to join the team, though he did so while April and Eunice were elsewhere.
Although Vangel is openly nonbinary, they are unfortunately often misgendered due to their masculine appearance (and the fact that they're generally okay with "he/him" pronouns). Because they don't match the common stereotype of nonbinary people being androgynous, they are commonly overlooked or disregarded. Between this and their overall less friendly appearance, the public tends to take Val as the Unbroken's token trans, rather than Vangel.
Physical Description
Body Features
Tall and somewhat muscular, Vangel tends to look incredibly intimidating. Though they appear tough and scary, they (generally) aren't.
Physical quirks
Vangel's eyes glow yellow when using their (active) powers. Additionally, they tend to be somewhat static-y to the touch. Not to the extent that they’ll shock anyone who touches them, but physical contact tends to feel a little fizzy, a little tingly.
Special abilities
As an Imbued, Vangel has access to a variety of superpowers, in addition to any skills or regular training they might've received.
Imbued powers
- Electrokinesis: Vangel can generate and control electricity. They can also, to a lesser extent, control already existent electricity. Using this power makes their eyes glow yellow.
- Electro-resistance: Vangel is immune to electricity. They conduct it, but it does no harm to them.
- Enhanced vision: Vangel has abnormally keen eyesight.
- Night vision: Vangel can see in the dark, although doing so will make their eyes glow yellow.
Apparel & Accessories
Vangel's costume as DynaWatt is rather dramatic, starring both a long dramatic coat and several stripes of yellow material which glows when exposed to enough electricity (like when Vangel uses their electrokinesis). It also features a giant fluffy collar, which conduct electricity surprisingly well. Combined with their height and figure, they look quite scary and intimidating. The coat itself is primarily black, but the rest of Vangel’s outfit alternates between black and blue.
Mental characteristics
Gender Identity
Vangel is nonbinary, but largely grew up in a time (and place) where information on enby identities was lackluster and difficult to access. As a result, he never really picked a label, and they haven't felt the need to pick one now. Though they go by both "they/them" and "he/him", they prefer to most people to refer to them as "they/them", just because so many people treat them as a man otherwise.
Personality Characteristics
Virtues & Personality perks
While they might appear scary, Vangel is actually a giant softie. They’re soft and kind and loving, as well as cooperative and fairly diplomatic, and incredibly social. Also a bit of a mother-hen sometimes, especially since they're the oldest in the team. Zephyr especially catches a lot of this, being more than a decade younger than Vangel.
Vices & Personality flaws
Vangel's tendency to mother-hen can be overbearing, especially to those easily scared off by their intimidating appearance. Additionally, Vangel can be indecisive and, should you piss them off, carries a grudge forever.
