Spectrum... — Description
Spectrum is a superhero from the United Kingdom.
His identity is an 18 year old teenager called Ben Foster - a teenager of English-Scottish descent with Asperger Syndrome.

Ben was simply living as normal a life as possible - having managed to find a part time job he enjoyed coupled with a voluntary job working at the library, where he would do general tasks for the staff and help teach elderly computer users how to perform basic computer tasks. In his personal life, Ben still lived with his mother but was slowly moving towards independence - starting to use supported living as a way of adjusting to life outside his home.
In terms of interest, Ben's varied greatly - with an interest in the psychic and paranormal, as well as in fantasy and science fiction. These interests, however, he kept to himself. A more notable interest that others saw in Ben was a love of computers - which had helped earn him his part-time job.

Unfortunately, life doesn't give you anything easily. That fact was true for Ben, as two of the people in the part time job he worked at seemed to refuse to accept him, on the basis of his difference. This included subtle bullying at work and including telling lies about him online on social websites such as Facebook.
At the request of an online friend, Ben constantly took print-screens of the lies his two colleagues constantly posted. After three months of doing so, Ben presented his findings to his boss at work.
Declaring the colleague's online actions to be inappropriate and potentially harmful to the business (made even more serious by the length of time they had been doing it), both of them were sacked.
Before leaving the premises, one of them quietly warned Ben "You're going to wish you were never f**king born!"

Thankfully for Ben, an unexpected ally was on the way. An extra-universal entity that existed before the creation of our universe was snaking its way through the solar system - heading towards Earth. Undetected by any of Earth's systems, the entity landed in the U.K - appearing as a small orb of light. As the lines of fate and destiny worked their 'magic', the entity's location matched with Ben's as he was attacked while walking home by the two colleagues who had been sacked that day.
Utilizing its powers, the entity merged with Ben - allowing him to change Ben's appearance. Transforming into a new form, Ben became a superhero for the first time and overcame his attackers easily. After both men had scarpered, the entity - talking to Ben telepathically - referred to itself as the Legacy. Upon Ben's request, the creature un-merged with him, returning Ben to normal.

Since then, however, Ben and the Legacy have become close friends - with the two merging together when necessary. Giving his superhero form the name 'Spectrum', he has become know across the world for his acts. Although reaction to him has garnered some negativity, the majority of people who learn of Spectrum regard him highly.

POWERS:
The Legacy is able to grant Ben/Spectrum his powers by honing on his imagination, which serves as the only limit to what Spectrum is capable of. Furthermore, some of Spectrum's powers are more limited or are purposely reserved by Ben or the Legacy for the extensive power they have.

His main abilities are as follows:

Spectrum's appearance can also vary in minor or major ways, as his appearance is based on Ben's imagined appearance.
