Nick Furst A member of the First Family. He's also the adopted child of Augustus Furst and twin sister of Natalie. His natural parents are Kaspian of the Beast-Men and Nadia, who was Dr. Furst's third wife. Powers Nick can project a rare kind of energy. In addition to firing burst off as energy blasts, he can utilize the energy's bizarre quality of having solid substance as if it were matter (and perhaps in some way it is) to generate solid constructs. He frequently carries himself (with or without the rest of the family) through the skies by generating flying platforms underneath his/their feet. Nick's energy is the same kind that his sister (though hers is projected internally), niece, and Augustus's energenerator wield, albeit in other ways. Speculations, Theories He often seems quick tempered and headstrong .
