[edit] Biography
[edit] Personality
Extremely energetic and eager to please, Meekins is constantly running around, doing menial tasks such as delivering letters. As a police officer, he would be assigned to file away more reports if not for a tendency to screw up due to his lack of coordination. He has a strong belief in the law, as is required by his job, but a limited sensibility of what true justice is, leaving him vulnerable to manipulation by seemingly well-meaning persons.
Meekins is extremely polite to everyone he meets, addressing them as "Sir" and ending almost every sentence with it. It's become second nature to him, as he even talks to lower-ranked individuals and children with this formality. It's likely because he can relate to being the lowest rung on the ladder; looked down on for most of his life, he is often viewed as a nuisance or expendable lackey. Meekins has therefore always had a dream to accomplish something huge and important, though he is also content with his current job, as he's willing to do whatever makes others happy.
[edit] Powers and Abilities
Mike is able to run at incredibly fast speeds, putting the fastest modern cars to shame. However, if he tires out, his recovery time is long and difficult, leaving him vulnerable to hazards and enemies. It's also rather painful for him to trip over his own feet while running in excess of 100 mph.
Mike's talent for speed is only applicable to running, and does not translate directly to his other actions, primarily due to his lack of coordination; he cannot, for example, throw an ultra-fast punch... at least not with any hope of hitting something other than himself.
