Lyle Williams

Diary Information
Type: Greatest Scoop

Device: Notepad

Power: The Greatest Scoop has the ability to predict any future news articles and the details of the press. It can do this infinitely with no limitations. The issue with it, however, is that no date is shown on the headlines. It only says the scene, time, outcome and invovled parties. The notepad can only hold twenty stories before the user must 'overwrite' one by ripping a page out. This page then reforms and can hold a new story. If the user does not remove a page, no new stories will be gained and the scoop is lost.

Appearance
Lyle has lightly tanned skin, shaggy brown hair, which always looks messily parted to the side, and a relatively good posture. He commonly wears an unzipped bomber jacket with a white undershirt and jeans.

Background
Lyle was born and raised in California with his parents and his older brother, Cyrus. He was raised very close with his family, often getting into fights over insults to them, or having his closeness to his brother abused through bullying and using him as bait. He was relatively aimless until high school, where he discovered a passion for writing, which his brother helped him explore. His happy life changed when his brother went missing, and as the police were at a loss to what actually happened with this uncharacteristic vanishing act, Lyle tried to take it into his own hands. Lyle assembled a fake identity, Haden Valentine, to track down his brother. Although he had hit many roadblocks on the way, through his brother's acquaintances, he managed to follow a trail to Seattle. Over a year of searching, Lyle began to settle, becoming a reporter as he further investigated his brother’s disappearance in his free time.

Personality
Lyle is a caring person, although his tendency to speak his mind without padding his opinions would lead others to think otherwise. He is persistent, sometimes to the point of not knowing when to stop. He is a creative thinker, and will usually manage to pull off outrageous plans through a combination of persuasion and dumb luck. Lyle also has a strong sense of justice and loyalty, which has thrown several wrenches in his plans to find his brother. He is relatively outgoing, a trait he picked up from his brother, and is sometimes too friendly, misreading social hints that are dropped telling him to back off.
