Switching (sorry) - Optimus Prime -> The Vision

[The Vision]

Character name:
The Vision


Character source:
Marvel Comics

Character history:
tl;dr he's from the comics, from the "Marvel Now" storyline.

The Vision is something called a synthezoid - apparently, a completely synthetic human. He was created by the robot Ultron to destroy the Avengers: he was a trap so invested in tricking the Avengers that he himself did not know he was on Ultron's side. Unfortunately, that meant that he believed he was on the Avengers' side - thus, he attacked Ultron and tricked him into killing himself. Eventually, he joined the Avengers.

Later, it was revealed that his brainwaves are that of Wonder Man, who essentially demanded he have them back. In a weird twist of fate that can only happen in comic books, the Vision turned out to also be part Human Torch, and long story short, he's party Johnny Storm now.

Since his creation, the Vision has gone through a lot of adventures. He married Scarlet Witch (an admittedly shaky relationship, filled with unborn twins and several reality resets) and has since gone through a lot of character changes. Upshot is, he's an android/synthezoid that is doing his very best to simulate humanity.

Stats:
ATK: 2
DEF: 1
SPD: 2
TEC: 5

Starting Proficiencies:

Ranged Proficiency (1000)
Area Attack Proficiency (600)

Starting Powers:

Flight (1800) - The Vision can fly. Who knows how.
Phasing (1200) - The Vision is able to break apart his molecules, allowing them to phase through almost all physical material, then reassemble. This allows him to hover through walls, or dodge attacks. 

Starting Moves: 

Optical Heat Projection (300) - Requires Ranged Proficiency
The Vision shoots weak beams of solar energy out of his eyes. The beams are white-hot cylinders 15 mm wide each, which can travel 3 meters before sizzling out. They are aimed at whatever he's looking at at the time. He can sustain the beams for 5 seconds before needing to recharge. Recharging the solar energy takes 2 seconds.

For a later time:
Microwave Propulsion (300) - Requires Ranged Proficiency, Area Attack Proficiency
The Vision fires a microwave pulse from his Solar gem. The pulse affects everyone within 1 meter of Vision. It does little more than a headache at the edge of the AoE, but can cause some minor damage if you are closer to him. This attack also knocks you back a very short distance. This attack needs 10 seconds to be used again, and an additional 5 seconds before it's at its full power. At a portion of its power, it has the same range, but far less damage.

I confirm that I have read and agreed to the Rules of Conduct.
I also confirm that this character cannot be approved until this Sunday (May 15th, 2016).

Optical Heat Projection: How fast do the beams travel (or how long until it reaches max range)? Can this be used in motion? Does it require his concentration to maintain? Can this be used with other moves? Lastly, what's the stamina drain on this? I know that it requires a recharge between uses but can he spam it throughout a fight or will repeated use wear him down?

Microwave Propulsion: Is there a charge time? Can this be used while moving? What's the stamina drain? Can this be used with other moves? Do the headaches cause any debuff? You'll have to run this through Move Approval later anyway so you can just leave the answers to these for later. Just wanted to point out the obvious stuff.

[The Vision]

Optical Heat Projection (300) - Ranged

The Vision shoots weak beams of solar energy out of his eyes. The beams are white-hot cylinders 15 mm wide each, which can travel 3 meters before sizzling out. They are aimed at whatever he's looking at at the time, so it requires his full concentration. He can sustain the beams for 5 seconds before needing to recharge. Recharging the solar energy from his Solar Gem takes 2 seconds. Using the beams repeatedly will very slowly wear him down, making the next attack very slightly weaker, and his movement a little more sluggish, until he has time to recharge.

What is the travel speed on the beams, or how long does it take it reach max range?

Also because apparently I'm silly and didn't ask before, when exactly was Vision taken to the Omniverse?

[The Vision]

Optical Heat Projection (300) - Ranged

The Vision's eyes glow red for 0.5 seconds, then he shoots weak beams of solar energy out of his eyes which hit maximum range immediately. The beams are white-hot cylinders 15 mm wide each, which can travel 3 meters before sizzling out. They are aimed at whatever he's looking at at the time, so it requires his full concentration. He can sustain the beams for 5 seconds before needing to recharge. Recharging the solar energy from his Solar Gem takes 2 seconds. Using the beams repeatedly will very slowly wear him down, making the next attack very slightly weaker, and his movement a little more sluggish, until he has time to recharge.

He was taken from right after the AXIS story arc.

Looks good, I'll set you up. Would you prefer your name to be 'The Vision' or just 'Vision'?
