✖ M02-B25-351 ✖ ORANGE ✖ west.wallace@cdc.org ✖ PLACE OF ORIGIN & SPECIES: Earth, meta-human. ✖ DIET: Omnivore, accelerated metabolism requires larger quantities and greater frequency. ✖ NOTABLE SKILL SET/S: Superspeed which is capable of reaching light speed, however doing so may result in death. Decelerated aging. Enhanced strength and durability. Some combat training. Knowledge of forensics and related sciences. ✖ BACKGROUND: Wallace West gained his abilities after he was struck by lightning while working in his laboratory. After gaining his powers, he created the Flash costume and alias and used his powers to help others, going on to help found the Justice League, a team of superheroes who primarily see themselves as Earth's protectors but occasionally extend their reach to other worlds as well. As the Flash, Wallace protected his home, Central and its sister city Keystone, and has come to be a beloved icon to the citizens of both. ✖ CHARACTER ASSESSMENT: Hopeful and optimistic almost to a fault, Wallace West sees the role of himself and the Justice League as standing for the betterment of others and holds himself and others he sees as comparable to a high standard of morals as a result, refusing to harm others whenever he deems it unnecessary and attempting to keep those he works with to a similar standard. While in the early days of his work as the Flash Wallace was often brash, impulsive, and had difficulty taking matters seriously, he has since matured considerably and while he still jokes, makes friends, and flirts easily he is aware of how they can be used to smooth over relations with others and when they may not be appropriate, a level of tact that he often lacked in the past. Wallace is comfortable working in a team, often relying on the rest of the Justice League to take control of situations, and as such does not seem to exhibit many leadership skills or much interest in taking such a role. He is capable of working alone but does not show much planning ability, often relying on his own faster reactions in order to adapt as he goes instead. Wallace West is also a highly social person, enjoying the company of others and making friends easily, to the point where he is occasionally too trusting and can show distress if forced to be alone or if friends are having interpersonal problems. ✖ ( VIEW FULL PROFILE )
