Liam James Johnson (often referred to by his alias Evil Maldini) is a pathological manipulator, born to Debra Louise Johnson and his astranged father Paul Macartney. He is closely associated with a group of evolved humans, many of whom he frequently borrows abilites from, most specifically his girlfriend Faye Nixon. He is an evolved human with the ability to copy aspects of other evolved humans.
Evolved Human Abilities
Liam's ability allows him to copy aspects of other evolved humans through physical touch. These could include, but not limited to: physical appearance, personality traits, emotions, skills and their abilities. Initially, Liam's ability allowed him only to be able to replicate the abilities of other evolved humans, but has since developed to be able to copy other aspects, always to a slight degree of imperfection, thus the simulacra reference. Liam has shown to be able to use the copied aspects of other evolved humans to some degree after the initial copy, however, multiple copying has shown to overwrite previously copied material, similarly to how the ability replication aspect of his power works.
Once an ability is replicated, it overwrites the previous one, allowing him access to one ability at a time. However, after replicating power absorption from Mark Norton, and using it against him, he gained permanent access to the abilities he had already stolen.
Liam has recently shown, after taking on muliple abilities that the usage of too many of them in a short stretch of time can cause severe nausea, migraines and most severly a seizure. He has since disgarded of power absorption, however retained access to the abilities he gained via it. He initially used abilites with care and discretion, on the advice of Dr. Barkley to avoid any more health problems, but has since been able to use numerous abilities frequently, seemingly without any adverse effects, suggesting that his body has adapted to 'accept' the multiple abilities he possesses.
Liam has replicated the following abilities over time:
- Teleportation from Matt Bignell & Faye Nixon
- Telekinesis from Jason Grounds & Mike
- Flight from Rachael Frost
- Super speed from Shawn Horridge
- Telepathy from Eleanor Harvie-August
- Pyrokinesis from Dave
- Healing touch from Graham Windle
- Rapid cell regeneration from Nicole Rouyer-Guillet, Emily Smith & Faye Nixon
- Power absorption from Mark Norton & Faye Nixon
- Intuition from Lee Worthington
- Siren's song from Jessica Whittingham
- Technopathy from Daniel Flatt
- Mental manipulation from Sophie Hopwood
- Size alteration from Faye Nixon
- Induced hypnosis from Kelly Nairn
- Chromatic mimicry from Faye Nixon
Current replicated ability:
Liam's current replicated ability is rapid cell regeneration from Nicole Rouyer-Guillet.
Absorbed Abilities:
He permanently absorbed the following abilities from Mark Norton: Telekinesis, Supercharging, Clairvoyance, Shape shifting and Freezing.
Later, on the 'request' of Libby Tuesday, Liam re-acquired power absorption so as to remove Libby's power from her for good. As such, he has access to it, but has never used it. This same process later occured with Ellie's telepathy, although he himself made the conscious choice that time, and has, on more than on occasion, since used it.
He has on one occasion used Faye's ability to gain another ability on purpose, in the case of Tiffany Price's Spiritry, before telepathically forcing her to forget she ever had it, much the same way he did with Mark Norton. He has since used it with Faye and Bianca but has lied about how he came about having the ability- claiming once he replicated it and once he absorbed it from Norton, but didn't realise he had it until now.
Notes
- In an altercation with Faye Nixon, both of them were rendered unconscious after blows to the head by a construction beam and landed tangled together. Before losing consciousness, both used their natural abilties unwillingly, and with Faye's being power absorption it appeared that Liam had been stripped of his abilities. However, it was later found that he had replicated her ability a split second before she used hers- nullifying the absorption.
