Nuru

Nuru (Noo-roo) was born in Africa at around 750 B.C. The name Nuru is African for "filled with light". This name was given to him because at a young age, his eyes would glow very bright from time to time, the tribe he's from considered him to be a miracle from the gods.

After several large events, Nuru finds out that his supernatural abilities stem from a rarer cosmic power than what is on earth. When he was born, the powers of a Time Lord were transferred to him. Nuru is able to manipulate time to create energy fractures, to see multiple possible futures, and in extreme cases, to travel to different points in time. Time Lords have an internal energy that recharges, and with that can do some of the actions described above. The farther and more influential a time point transported to is, the more energy it consumes. Time Lords have killed themselves going to extreme time points. (an extreme time point is one that has universal significance and can effect the universe on a large scale) Time Lords are appointed by The Seer to help keep the universes time lines running smoothly.

Early Life
Nuru was worshiped in his tribe as being a gift from the gods, if not that, a god himself. Nuru stayed humble during these years, assuring his tribe he was just like them, he just had bright eyes. As he aged, his intelligence quickly surpassed that of his tribe leaders. In hopes of finding something more fulfilling, he left his tribe. As he journeyed across Africa, he harnessed his powers of energy manipulation.

He realized at about the age of 60 that his powers were not letting him age, and in fact, would heal his wounds. He journeyed around Africa for about 700 years, studying all the material he could possibly find, and learning many professions. He knew his gifts were special, and tried not to make use of them in public settings.

At about 10 B.C. he disappeared to the areas around Israel, not much is known about his life then.

During the 3rd century, he met Ryan Ambrose AKA The Immortal. They quickly became good friends since their immortality was a substantial gift they had in common. Nuru and Ryan set out to find more people like themselves so that they could find out more about themselves. This led to the eventual creation of an island off the coast of the United States, Emerald Island.

Current Life
Nuru has matured his gifts substantially. He can use the energy manipulation to increase his strength, heal others, and teleport himself and others to desired locations. He is currently an honorary member, and founder of The Militia. A meta human group devoted to protecting Earth.
