| Details | |
Fifty-Fifty is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of an Adlestini from the planet Serendus.
Appearance[]
Fifty-Fifty is a three-eyed, lanky humanoid, standing at around 6' 8". He has mostly black skin, with patches of red on his head, shoulders, hips, fingers, and inner toes. The Omnitrix is positioned on his lower abdomen.
Powers and Abilities[]
Fifty-Fifty is able to experience precognitive visions, relative to his current situation and his desired actions. These visions come in pairs, with one showing the "best" and one showing the "worst" case scenario, with little-to-no indication as to the probability of either happening, so he's left to assume a 50/50 chance of either occurring. Depending on whether the potential "good" outweighs the potential "bad", he can choose to take the gamble or find a better course of action. His visions are mostly voluntary, though they can be triggered instinctively when in danger.
He is also very agile and strong, giving him an advantage in both fight and flight situations. However, this is relative to humans, and there are a great many species both stronger and more agile than Fifty-Fifty.
Species[]
Fifty-Fifty's species, the Adlestini, are native to the planet Serendus. In the ancient past they had a predatory species with incredibly fast males, and incredibly strong females, with no distinct physical differences between the two sexes to tell them apart. As a result, the standard "fight or flight" response could very quickly go wrong if they incorrectly guessed which they were up against (as they can outrun a female, and out-fight a male, but not the other way around). This is believed to be the reason the Adlestini developed their precognitive ability. By seeing the best and worst outcomes anytime they encountered their predator, they could see if fighting or fleeing had the better outcome, and act accordingly. This ability led to them taking control of their environments by managing to hunt and contain the predators, allowing the Adlestini to develop to the societal stage.
Outside of the basic "fight or flight" situation their ability seemingly adapted to support, their precognitive abilities have become much more complex, especially upon their advancement into society, where they could see the outcomes of social interactions. To most, they appear to be a very wise and intelligent species, however it is merely a result of their seeing possible futures and figuring out the paths that need to be taken for the best outcomes. Additionally, because of their ability, they are banned from most casinos in the known universe.
Their appearance also adapted due to their predators, which hunted primarily around sunset/sunrise, and so the red patches of the Adlestini's skin allowed them to blend in with the small patches of the sunset/rise visible through the canopy of forests. This meant they were somewhat camouflaged, as provided they didn't move much their predators were unlikely to see them.
Trivia[]
- Created as an entry for the Fanon Con 2022 Alien Creation Contest.
- Fifty-Fifty's homeworld, Serendus, is a play on words, being a bastardisation of 'serendipitous' (meaning good luck) made to sound similar to 'surrenders' (which is often considered a 'worst case scenario' in situations), referencing the positive-and-negative bipolar nature of Fifty-Fifty's ability.—->
