ABILITY LIMITS -- Physically- Using the adrenaline he allows himself to enhance his strength, speed, reflexes, endurance, and all of his senses.

Mentally- Using the boost allows him to slow down time around him making his mind take in all of the area around him and allowing him to gauge situations around him at a faster rate than a normal human. Also allows him to focus and usually allowing people with mental powers to have little or no effect depending on their control level.

Weakness- If Drake uses the power to long he loses focus and can’t control himself and gives into rage also after a while his power starts to fade which is why he uses it in short bursts.

[/ul]BIOGRAPHY -- Drake grew up in the city of Denver. His father was a police officer and his mother worked at a local beauty shop. His father was a drinker and being a cop he was allowed to beat any of his family member Drake being the oldest sibling he would challenge his father to fights as so his younger brother and sister as well as mother would be left alone until he tired himself out, this when Drake first started wanting to protect the innocent. Growing up he knew he wanted to be tough and one day be tough enough to teach his father a lesson. So he took karate classes at a young age of twelve paying with odd jobs around his neighborhood. Still his father was stronger and resourceful usually going with a make shift weapon to even the odds. At this young of an age Drake first got to use his power as he would release adrenaline to lessen the pain and even strike his dad once in awhile but he didn’t have any control over it yet. All Drake knew was that he wanted to get out of where he was. He found his way out through the army. So when Drake turned 18 he enlisted as soon as he could.

So in May he went to Basic Combat Training and then to Airborne School. After passing airborne school he found a bound with his fellow soldiers something he never had with his father and soon loved the Army. Drake excelled at everything that was thrown at him and he loved the challenge of it all. During his training is when he first started learning about his power as high pressure situation he would be the best. When he finished airborne school he requested more training instead of being put into active duty right away but was rejected and sent to England to do joint training ops with the UK's equivalent to the 82nd. Several months and a promotion he volunteered for training exercise with a group of Army Rangers. After the mission was over a Senior NCO in the Rangers noticed Drake's composure, awareness, stamina and overall performance and put in for him to become a Ranger. So after proving himself on several missions and the letter of recommendation from the Senior NCO he was approved to become a ranger.

He was put with the 75th Ranger Regiment only to be given additional training in Search and Rescue missions at Fort Steward. After excelling at his initial training he was allowed to go to Ranger School. So after the nine week training program he took several more courses so he could be the best he could be. He took both SERE and Combat Diver Qualification. Then he transferred over to Camp Zama in Japan. He was brought into Task Force Omega Sigma Epsilon doing support missions for the Special Forces doing SARs, information gathering, and special reconnaissance into China. He stayed at Camp Zama in Japan doing support missions for Special Forces. He then went to Iraq and served over there. Everything was going great for Drake, he loved the military and more importantly loved his men. Then one day his unit came under fire. Drake did the best he could using his power to full effect and pumping himself with the most adrenaline he has ever used but he lost eight of his men and his CO blamed Drake for the loss of life. Drake argued the case but lost and was dishonorably discharged from the Rangers.

After leaving the Rangers he didn’t really know what to do as he thought he would always be a Ranger till the day he died. He tried going legit working as a body guard but when the company found out that he had been dishonorably discharged they fired him. The only job he could find was a security guard at a bank. He found it too boring of a life and gave it up. He didn’t know what to do anymore. He thought about ending his life but he was found by a man who gave him a job. The job was to find a bad man who owed a lot of money to the mafia. The man told Drake that this man was hard to find so they were looking for a professional to search and destroy. They wanted the man dead. Drake asked why this man should die. It turned out that the man was a con artist who had been stealing money from the elderly. Drake took the job and hunted the man down. The man was an illusionist and put up barriers. Drake just used his power to make his brain focus harder and see through them. Finally he got to the man and without hesitant put two bullets into his skull and three into the chest. To this day Drake can’t help but smile at that even because with that even he felt relief as he helped to clean up the world that was preying on the innocent. He went back to the man who offered him the job showed him the corpse and then killed him. Since that day Drake’s only goal in life is clean up the streets and not by taking bad people to prison but to end their worthless lives.

SAMPLE RP

Drake walked into the bar, he the smelled the vile odder that those men gave off and then added with that was the mix of cheap booze, sea air, and sweat and Drake could hardly stand being in the same room as these men. This wasn’t just any bar that Drake had walked into but Mancino’s Pub in New York by the docks. It’s where all the muscle for upcoming jobs were hired. Drake knew the whole room had watched him as he was an outsider but he didn’t care. The reason Drake didn’t care was that he had already formulated a plan in case things didn’t go as they were supposed to; he had several grenades on him along with several other explosives. He took a seat at a table and ordered a drink of Irish Whisky and waited. Drake scanned the room and took mental pictures as he wanted to know who his next targets would be. ”One day honest people won’t have to worry about scum like this’’ he had thought to himself as the waitress had come back with his drink.

Drake had sat at the table for thirty minutes before someone finally somebody had come up to him. Drake sensed the big man approach him. Drake reached for his silenced M9 pistol in his jacket and pointed it at the man inside of his jacket just as the man sat down. Drake looked at the man in the eyes. ”Took you long enough he said with a grin as he put his hand out as Drake knew the man very well as he had been in his unit in Iraq. Drake waited for the man to respond as he scanned the area for trouble.
