Real Name:Bartholomew “Bart” Allen II
Code Name:Kid Flash[Formely Impulse]]
History:Bart inherited super-speed from his grandfather, Barry Allen, but his hyperaccelerated metabolism resulted in an accelerated growth rate. To keep him from going insane, scientists placed him in a virtual reality that kept pace with his own scale of time. Eventually it became clear that their efforts were not helping, so Bart’s grandmother Iris took him to the 20th Century to consult her nephew, Wally West. Wally knew from experience the practicalities of super-speed in the field, unlike the scientists who had only observed it in the laboratory. Wally forced Bart into an extreme burst of speed that shocked his system into normalcy—he retained his speed, but his accelerated growth rate dropped to normal.
After Wally’s encounter with the speed force, Max Mercury became Bart’s guardian and trainer. Because of Bart’s childhood in VR, he has no concept of danger and rarely thinks ahead, acting completely on... impulse.
During a trip to the 31st Century , Bart was blasted by an experimental hyper-ray intended to give ordinary people super-speed. Instead it gave him the ability to create “scouts,” energy-like avatars of himself which he could then send through the timestream, then absorb their memories when they returned. After one of his scouts was killed on Apokolips and the psychic feedback sent him into shock, he has been extremely reluctant to use his new power. (It is also possible he no longer has it.)
Bart is also something of a time anomaly. Though his parents only met in post-Zero Hour continuity, he arrived in the 20th Century before the event hit. He has since displayed immunity to time alterations; he weathered Extant’s manipulations of the timeline and remembered Linda Park even after her disappearance . Even worse, the 31st century he knows no longer exists. (Teen Titans/Legion Special, 2004).
After a series of traumas—Carol’s and Max’s disappearances, Bart’s near-death experience on Apokolips, the deaths of Lilith and Troia and dissolution of the Titans and Young Justice, and finally a gunshot wound to the knee—Bart decided to reinvent himself. He read every book in the San Francisco public library, and wove together a new costume, calling himself not Impulse, but Kid Flash.
Bart currently lives with Jay and Joan Garrick in Keystone City.

Example of Roleplay:Bart stood in britan scratching his head wondering were the hell he was "Oh well at least i got out of going to the shops"said Bart to him self he then looked around and saw a car straight for him he quickly moved to the side so fast it was like he had teleported there he looked at his bag and took out his costume putting it on he then looked at some guys going to race he walked over "Can i race too?"he asked "You cant drive lil man your a younster"said one "No i meant on foot" they all laughed "sure man lets see if you can beat us in a race"they said laughing The Green Light went they were already off Bart who yawned tapping his foot as the drivers wer half way there he started jogging and then running at a Extremely fast pace as he got to the finish line he walked over and waited for the racers "wow man wered you learn to run like that?"they said in amazemnt "Around"said Bart who then ran into the night
