Tear Jerk (Rain Man)

Rian Dinius (Tear Jerk) is a member of Class 1-A. Later on he would change his name to Rain Man to match his change to slightly upgraded powers. He is the second most powerful member of Class 1-A according to the DIET Program evaluation, though he relies heavily on special technology to make his abilities more useful in combat.

He is very sensitive and has a high emotional intelligence and friends with everyone in Class 1-A and most of the students in Class 1-B.

Appearance:

Rian has dark blonde that he slicks back with his tears. His favorite color is sky blue. He wears a sweatshirt of that color with jeans most of the time.

Rian must constantly wear a special type of goggle-like eyewear or his excessive tears will soak the entire front of his body. His civilian goggles are clear and more closely resemble glasses than his combat goggles. They are made to fill up with water and still allow the user to see without a reduction of depth perception.

His super suit is sky blue with royal blue boots, gloves, cowl, and cape. His goggles are orange with a thick grey band wrapping around Rian's head. A thin hose embedded in the suit goes from the band to the gloves and boots. Orange valves are located in the palm of each hand and the bottom of each boot.

Rain Man's super suit is similar in shape to Tear Jerk's except without a cape. The color of the suit is light gray and the gloves and cowl is a darker gray. His feet are bare.

Abilities: Rain Man Weaknesses:
 * Quirk: Rian's quirk allows him to produce water from his eyes. He can control the strength of the flow by widening and narrowing his eyes, which gives him a wide range of offensive attacks. He can release tidal wave sized deluges, fire hose like bursts, and even narrow streams fast enough to cut through metal. Rian can never fully stop the flow, so it always looks as though he is intensely weeping.
 * Suit: Rian's super suit allows him to redirect water from his eyes to the valves in his hands and feet. He can control the valves to make the streams large and forceful or small and slicing. With the suit he can also shoot multiple bursts of water at the same time.
 * Mobility/Agility: The suit drastically increases Rian's speed and agility through the valves on his feet. By shooting a strong stream of water from both feet valves, Rian can jump long distances, perform flips and aerial feats, and hover in the air.
 * After his time in Class 1-A maybe chose of his own free will or maybe was coerced into undergoing a dangerous full body operation to improve his powers. The operation basically installed the hose-valve system from Tear Jerk's suit inside his body. So he no longer needs to wear a super suit to shoot water from his feet and hands. The only sign of this are holes in his palms and feet that can be opened and closed. He still has to wear goggles.
 * The pain/trauma of the operation unlocked an innate power in Rian, hydrokinesis. Rian's hydrokinetic abilities are currently low but it has been hinted that with practice they could rival those of Sobek. At this point Rian can gather floating "bubbles" of water that must be touching his body. He has used these bubbles by punching with them around his fists like aquatic boxing gloves and swinging them at people like large clubs made of water. In one instance he gathered a large bubble around him like a force field that stopped bullets from reaching him and his partners. This used up all of his energy and they could not breathe inside the bubble.

Without his suit (pre-op) Rian can only shoot water from his eyes. He can not see when doing this so his aim is spotty.

The water he exudes has a high salt content. So, if stranded in the desert even he would be at risk of dehydration.

Trivia:
 * Even though he is crying all the time, Rian cries "real tears" easily. Movies, weddings, you name it.
 * He doesn't like sports unless they are of the beach/water variety. Favorites are beach volleyball and water polo.
 * Rian is Lithuanian on his father's side and French on his mother's. He grew up in France and can speak French and is a good cook.
 * His birthday is June 21.
