Brief Biography
Nazeer Al-Yassin was a U.A.E. born mutant whose odd features of hair and complexion colour deemed an immediate effect at birth. His parents ensured that his identity was kept safe, and loved him unconditionally despite the circumstances. The inconspicuous lifestyle became all too conspicuous is the most negative of means; Nazeer's latent mutant gifts erupting violently at a very young age after several weeks of enduring migraine pain. All physical matter around him within his home and immediate surrounding neighbourhood disintigrated, ripped apart telekinetically particle by particle as a manifestation of his release of pain. Unfortunately, this sudden shockwave of psychic energy took the lives of his mother and father without a another thought to spare. This surge of energy was perceived on a global scale - several of the Fortunatas within the Arachnos numbers locked onto the location of the powerful source of mental energy.
The confused youth wandered within his own wreckage, authorities and surviving numbers closing upon his proximity with fear in their hearts and retribution in their minds. Nazeer's life was spared through the efforts of Arachnos' interference, whom immediately responded to the phenomenon and transported the mutant to the Rogue Isles. Nazeer was robbed of a complete childhood, his limits constantly being tested through the course of his young life; education granted through solely the means of Arachnos resources, and time spent only on training, obedience conditioning and criminal activity. The more powerful his potential rose, the stronger his mental vampiristic tendancies became. This isolated, focused and emotionally-negating phase of life would last for a decade. By his late teens Nazeer would emerge to the public as one of Arachnos' top assassins and operatives, known to kill targets across oceans with a concentrated thought.
He would demonstrate his ability to overpower groups of psychic adversaries time and time again, to a point in where he thought himself superior over the organization that had made him what he was; a numb, instinct-driven monster whom wanted nothing more but to quench his thirst for the psyche of others. To the Arachnos' advantage, Nazeer was also being passively conditioned in erasing thoughts of his past, a curiosity he had always pondered upon. In order to maintain his loyalty, he was promised the revealing of more memories the longer he remained in service for their cause. Reluctantly, the young man accepted. Over a span of another two years, through his increasing frustration he was not able to enjoy his end of the bargain, and forcefully and immediately ended his alliance deeming the quest to discover his past no longer an important avenue.
Without direction and the constant pushing of Arachnos endeavors to constantly utilize his abilities on a daily basis, Nazeer soon discovered the relation between his output of energy with the vampiric backlash while disappearing underground from the public reputation - he no longer felt the perverted urge with such overwelming magnitude during this long period of rest. The urge was serving as a personal block, and while it was relieved, he would re-discover his conscience, his emotions...all the guilt he could suddenly feel overwelming him from victims who perished on his accord. After much contemplation, and much to everyone's surprise, he would surrender himself to Paragon authorities.
Nazeer was granted a fair trial, and investigation. His true past was uncovered, and the nature of his actions was understood. He would be granted an exclusion from Ziggursky incarceration under a few conditions. He willingly agreed to have information extracted from his memories by the hand of an allied psychic authority regarding Arachnos activity, and was finally able to understand his past and the aftermath of his psychic outbreak. Nazeer was given the chance to redeem himself, registering as a Paragon City Hero under the new alias of Psistrom. Though several keep their eye upon him, the man is eager to reverse the damage he has caused so many...

Personality
Previously
Nazeer's personality was highly manipulated by two major factors; he was raised as a criminal from a very young age and reflected upon the lack of emotional nurturing he received, as well as his own mutation based side-effect. His virtually uncontrollable psychic hunger peaked at the fact that he was forced to constantly expend mental energy, thus his morality was shattered by greed, hatred of being and an unemotional outlook.
Currently
As a reformed criminal after severing his relations with Arachnos entirely, Nazeer has been able to better control his psychic hunger to the point where it's nature does not interfere with his moral sentience. While still a little reserved and sometimes lacking a sense of humour, he is deeply loyal, and for the first time in a long time, expresses emotional compassion to compliment his work ethic. On the battlefield however, he is strictly focus, logic and business.
Powers and Abilities
Nazeer is an extremely powerful psionic mutant through both his dual affinity for telepathic and telekinetic versatility, as well as the depth in which he is able to utilize these two primary abilities. His mutation comes at the price of a psychic hunger, and at once time such a hunger caused him to tap into any lengths of his mutation to receive what he desired. Currently as a reformed criminal and being in general, Nazeer has better control of this psychic hunger, and taps into less of his potential in fear of once again crossing the line of morality. Despite this, Nazeer is known as one of the most powerful living psionic mutants to date. He is classed as a theoretical omega-level mutant.
Telekinesis/Psychokinesis
- Projection/Repulsion: The most primitive and basic use of his ability, Nazeer is easily able of projecting raw bursts of psychokinetic force originating in any direction and covering a dangerous degree of area through pushing and pulling matter. The intensity of these bursts can shift in magnitude upon a whim, from a focused shove off the feet, to a force great enough to shatter metal objects and touch substances without a second thought.
- Force-fields: Psychokinetic energy is focused around particular objects and people, including himself into shells or force-fields. These force-fields acquire both physical and mental protection, and are capable of withstanding a force equivolant to an atomic bomb with seldom strain.
- Control: A more controlled manipulation utilizing his psychokinesis, he is able to affect objects, people, etc in a less chaotic manner.
- Physiological Manipulation: A sub-degree of his telekinetic control, he has in the past expressed his ability in directly manipulating the bodily or inner functions of living things while he knows what to sense for; his ability not hindered by direct optical perception while he has memorized or theorized interior components or objects, places or people. This offers him a selection of morbid attributes, including his ability to constrict the air passage, stop blood flow, crush organs, physiologically alter thoughts and emotions by controlling chemical signals, etc. The possibilities appear endless.
- Subatomic Manipulation: Advanced focus enables Nazeer to telekinetically affect matter on a subatomic level. Due to the possibilities regarding this, it grants him access to an array of other control types, including the manipulation of temperature by speeding or slowing the kinetic energy within atoms, the ability to alter the physical state of matter (i.e water to ice), and other dire phenomena. He has expressed potential in going far as being able to affect time and space through a controlled manner, though this potential remains unknown as it is no longer practiced by choice. As a villain, Nazeer's most powerful outbursts were known to cause ripples in the very fabric of the reality around him.
Telepathy/Mental Assault
- Mind Reading/Communication: A very basic and general use of his telepathic gift, Nazeer is able to easily perceive the thoughts of others, scan minds for information and communicate telepathically. Through a general sweep he is able to perceive the brainwaves of several individuals at one time, however, he is known for his very capability of stretching his mind link to individuals across the world through a moderately concentrated state.
- Mental Affliction: He is able to attack and manipulate the minds of friends and foes alike in a wide variety of effects. Nazeer is capable of projecting devastating mental bolts of energy that destroy the minds of his targets, inflicting paralysis, disorientation, fatigue and physiological pain in it's basic affliction. Vice-versa, Nazeer is also able to cure, hinder or block entirely the mental afflictions targeting allies, instilling focus and clarity of mind. This projection of mental manipulation is dependant upon his mind link, and thus possesses the extremely powerful potential in affecting one's mind over a very large distance across the globe with effort and focus.
- Mental Barrier: Nazeer's mind is virtually unbreachable by inferior psychics; his projected and personal thoughts concealed against interception.
- Perception Manipulation: He is able to mentally dominate the perceptions of others, causing them to see, hear, touch, taste or smell things that are not truly viable, and confuse enemies into perceiving beliefs and surroundings that they would otherwise not experience.
- Sensory: A sub-category of his telepathic scanning, he has demonstrated the ability to sense the auras, capabilities and intentions of others.
Enhanced Brain Activity
- Information/Multi-tasking: His powerful and superiorly developed mind processes psionic phenomena seperate from the majority of his capacity, thus acquires a larger brain capacity in general compared to the average human. Nazeer is easily able to multi-task, and boasts a vivid memory.
- Intuition: He is naturally highly intuitive in terms of trusting in his own instincts.
Psychic Vampirism
- The Hunger: Nazeer's extremely powerful and seldomly matched psychic power causes him to release very large amounts of mental energy. As a side-effect of his mutation, his body and mind has developed an addiction in which passively manifests as a hunger for the psychic energy of others to fuel himself. By draining the psyche of others, he remains in peak physiological condition and gains a variety of benefits. Victims of this painful psychic vampirism are typically left physically and mentally weakened, or in extreme cases become comatose, or are exhausted to death. Previously this hunger was allowed to rule his well-being, though currently he has learned how to better cope and control the sensation; utilizing less of his potential uses less energy. In essence, the more powerful his output and affect over everything around him, the more powerful the needed feeding afterward.
- Power Enhancement: Absorbing mental energy increases the magnitude of his psychic powers, enhancing them to their unfathomable levels.
- Superior Physiology: Nazeer acquires superior physical condition from feeding on psychic energy as well; maintaining peak human health.
- Delayed Aging: One theory suggests that as a side-effect of absorbing psychic energy as a form of life-force, Nazeer is actually delaying the rate at which he ages over time. Full details are not known.
Abilities
- Anatomical Knowledge: Through his part-time career, Nazeer acquires basic knowledge of the human anatomy, as well as a variety of afflictions and concepts. This is due to his training as a morgue technician during his time affiliated with Arachnos.
- Tactics: He is an accomplished tactician in combat due to his previous training. Nazeer also utilizes his powers to further this ability, and is particularly skilled in tracking.
- Writing/Literature: In his spare time, Nazeer has a fondness for reading, well as writing poetry. He utilizes this skill with language as a better means to express himself emotionally.
