Lewis Anderson

Name: Lewis Anderson
Gender: Male (he/him/his)
Age: 15
Sexuality: Heterosexual

Personality: Lewis sees the world as an ever changing place - after all, a few years ago he was in middle school and now he is in an army. He does not really know what this world will bring him, so finding people he can run with is a clear priority in his life. He hopes to have a medical career down the road, and might try getting a spot in the infirmary while serving the legion. This poses a challenge to the shy Lewis, who will need to find the confidence required to approach these goals.

Place of Birth (city, state, country): Mt. Olympus

Legacy of: Bellona
Abilities (doesn't use energy to do):
- Unable to get sick; his body neutralizes infections once they enter his body
- Knows how a weapon is used upon touch
- Can diagnose any infection
Powers (uses energy to do):
- Can heal any infection with his touch. The details depend on the severity of the infection, though the use/cool-down ratio is 1:5. Curing someone of the flu would take one post with a five post cool-down, while curing someone of HIV would take 20 posts with a 100 post cool-down. Curing requires intense focus and for the infected to be unconscious. Due to his lack of training Lewis currently gets tired after the simplest of cures. Curing can be done between one to three (1-3) times in a thread, depending on the severity of the diseases. Only one infection can be cured at a time. Lewis will pass out once the maximum number of uses is reached.
Pets (if any): Lester the Ferret; the two are inseparable

History (four sentences or more):
- George Anderson: Originally from Culver City, Calif., George served the legion in the 1980s and retired as a centurion for the third cohort. He returned to the mortal world to study epidemiology at Johns Hopkins school of Public Health, earning his Ph. D. He then worked on the U.S. Army’s biological weapons program in Maryland where he met Febris. When Lewis was recruited George moved back to New Rome, lobbied old friends for letters of recommendation and began teaching/researching epidemiology at NRU.

- Lewis Anderson: Lewis spent most of his life in Maryland, going to school around Fort Detrick. Recruited by Lupa at 13, he trained for a year before coming to camp. With the help of his father’s lobbying, Lewis was placed in the first cohort as a probatio. Seven months into his career, Lewis pushed a Legionnaire out of a ballista’s path. While this gained him a scar and a week at Julius Caesar Memorial, Lewis earned Legionnaire status for his selflessness.
