originGavin Summers, a childhood friend of Wesley Johnson, comes from an intriguing family background. His mother, Katherine, is a Deviant, while his father, Alexander Summers, is a human who formerly served as a member of S.T.A.T.I.C. (Special Taskforce for Alien Terrestrial Investigation and Containment). Gavin's connection with Wesley initially began through his father's association with S.T.A.T.I.C., which served as the foundation of their friendship. Gavin's educational journey was marked by remarkable academic achievement, as he managed to complete college a year ahead of schedule. His dedication to learning and a deep-rooted passion for his father's former line of work eventually led him to follow in his father's footsteps and join S.T.A.T.I.C. Alongside his older brother, Aiden, Gavin's decision to become a part of the organization solidified his role within it and deepened his connections with the Johnson family.

Powers & abilities
Deviant Physiology
Gavin possesses Deviant physiology, which stands as an exceptional deviation from standard human attributes. These individuals exhibit enhanced speed, agility, durability, and strength, surpassing peak human capabilities. Their speed allows for swift evasion and rapid engagement, while their agility grants them unparalleled maneuverability. In terms of durability, they possess resistance to physical harm, extreme temperatures, and energy-based attacks. Additionally, their superior strength enables them to effortlessly handle heavy loads and excel in combat scenarios.
Ambient Energy Conversion
Gavin absorbs ambient cosmic energy into the cells of his body and processes it into plasma. This results in control over an extremely powerful sort of destructive force.
Energy Absorption
Gavin possesses the capacity to absorb cosmic energy from his environment and manipulate various energies. He can passively absorb cosmic energy but hasn't fully showcased his cosmic energy absorption in Book 1 due to the nature of his fights against his brother, Aiden Summers. Instead, he predominantly demonstrates his regular energy absorption capabilities. Gavin is forced to rely on his inherent energy manipulation skills to combat Aiden without tapping into the broader cosmic energy spectrum. His energy absorption is marked by four distinct color stages: Electric Blue at 25%, Cerulean Blue at 50%, Ultramarine Blue at 75%, and a Prussian Blue Energy Form at 100%.
Plasma Emanation
Gavin can shoot or emanate plasma in the form of a destructive blast. He channels this plasma, usually along the length of his arms, allowing him to shatter, explode, or disintegrate objects upon impact. When directed at a human being with reduced power, it causes severe headaches without burning them.
Energy Self-Sustenance
Gavin has the ability to breathe in space for a short period of time. He uses a large percentage of the energy stored in his body as a barrier between himself and the surrounding vacuum.
Precise Cauterization
Gavin can apply controlled bursts of superheated plasma energy from his fingertips to precisely target and seal wounds, such as cuts, punctures, or injuries from bladed weapons.
Plasma Shield
Gavin can generate a protective shield made of superheated plasma, which can absorb and dissipate incoming energy and physical attacks, rendering him nearly impervious to harm.
Heat & Radiation Immunity
Gavin is virtually immune to the effects of most forms of heat and radiation.
Flight
Gavin can also use stored energy for flight by directing it as a downward thrust. At full energy capacity he has an easier time managing his energized propulsion through his powers.
Energy Overload Form
Gavin can assume an "Energy Overload Form," a state where he temporarily becomes a conduit for the limitless power of energy. In this form, his abilities are greatly amplified, allowing him to manipulate energy in unprecedented ways. Key aspects of this transformation include:
Mastery of Combat Styles
Gavin possesses an exceptional level of proficiency in a wide array of combat styles, making him a formidable and adaptable combatant. His knowledge of these styles includes:
