Name: Robert Currie
Alias: Thunder
Age: 18
Sponsor: Captain Marvel
Personality: Courageous, Optimistic, & Friendly, if a bit Sarcastic at times.
Powers: An acolyte of the Marvel family, Robert is bequeathed all the gifts of a champion of magic:

The Wisdom of Solomon – The wisdom of Solomon expresses itself in many different ways, including superhuman knowledge, a photographic memory, and making Robert omni-lingual.
The Strength of Hercules – A patron of the most famous demigod, when Robert invokes the power of Captain Marvel, he’s granted incredible strength, able to lift over 100 tons with little effort.
The Stamina of Atlas – When in superheroic form, Robert does not need to eat or sleep and does not tire easily.
The Power of Zeus – Chief among the gods, Zeus grants the powers of magical resistance, physical muscular enhancement, a healing factor, and is able to teleport to the Rock of Eternity, home base of the Marvel Family, wherever it may be.
The Courage of Achilles – On top of being granted a degree of invulnerability, same as the ancient Greek hero, Robert is also given supreme confidence and optimism in the face of dire odds.
The Speed of Mercury – Swiftest of the gods grants Robert the ability of flight and as well as superhuman speed while on foot.

Weaknesses: Despite his powers being derived from the oldest of magicks, Robert is not unstoppable:

Magic -- Despite his numerous abilities and resistances, magic powerful enough is still capable of harming Robert as it is Captain Marvel.
Magic Word/Lightning – Like any member of the Marvel Family, Robert is dependent on uttering the magic word in order to transform into his alter-ego. Without being spoken, Robert is simply another mortal man. As such, his magic lightning is also capable of stripping his powers, if it’s called down and connects with him.

Appearance: In his civilian identity, Robert Currie stands just over six feet tall, broad-shouldered and with honey brown hair and earthy green eyes. When transformed, his stature remains largely the same but his eyes and hair darken considerably, Robert somewhat adopting the guise of former partner to Captain Marvel, Freddie Freeman. His hair turns jet black and his eyes turn chestnut brown, all in the name of preserving his secret identity.

Brief Bio: A teenaged resident of Boston, Massachusetts, Robert once lived what some might call a mundane existence. His city was one of the few major metropolitan areas that lacked any constant superhero presence, metahuman or vigilante. However, that didn’t stop the city from being targeted. During what would later be referred to by Captain Marvel as “a tear in the seal between dimensions,” Boston was exposed to the horror of an invasion of Costellon Goblins from the southern sphere of some unknown world. Captain Marvel intervened, single-handedly fending off the would-be takeover of Boston, but not before he spotted Robert helping others evacuates the immediate area, saving them from harm. Showing true heroism in the face of disaster, Captain Marvel approached Robert later and, with his consent, bequeathed unto him the title of Captain Marvel Jr. and powers mirroring that of Captain Marvel himself. After his training within the Rock of Eternity was completed, he debuted as Thunder, the rebranded partner of Captain Marvel who now calls the city of Boston his home, defending it from all manner of criminal while still hoping one day to earn the Justice League’s endorsement.

What’s Changed: In the intervening months since joining Young Justice, Robert Currie a.k.a. Thunder has had to face up to a lot. Following his first few months of team membership, there was a radical shift in the realm of magic. Billy Batson was stripped of his powers for reasons unknown to Robert, and the need for a new champion prompts SHAZAM to call forth a new Captain Marvel. Robert Currie, once the protégé to Billy Batson, was the most likely candidate to replace his mentor as the new Captain Marvel. As such, he is granted the power once carried by Billy and must step up as the new Captain Marvel, undergoing the trials necessary for making him worthy of such gifts. Opting to fight crime solo in Boston and beyond for a while, eventually the call comes summoning Robert back to join a team for the first time in months. Which team, however, remains to be seen…

Name - Jinayah Ifriti
Alias - Orbit
Age - 17
Sponsor - Batman
Personality - intelligent, snarky, driven
Powers/Tools/Skills - Telekinetic enhanced strength, telekinetic almost-flight, mechanical and math brilliance, martial arts, 6 silver orbs with hidden blades
Weaknesses - big opponents, high metabolism, fighting in open spaces, insomnia, snow/winter
Appearance -


BRIEF Bio - Jin lost her parents at a young age, and was on the streets not long after. Years of struggling to survive turned an innocent child to a clever, capable pickpocket. She grew more and more confident, until one day she decided to enter the more upper-class part of Gotham. She picked the wrong mark- Bruce Wayne. While she managed to sneak his wallet, she didn't get much farther than that. Wayne was no fool, and he caught up to her long enough to get his wallet back. The young thief vanished- only to be visited hours later by Batman himself. He offered her something no one else had: hope.

What's Changed - Jin was already starting to crack after the loss of a teammate and the devastating attack on their base. When she slept through a trouble alarm and (in her mind) abandoned her teammates, she knew that she was nearing rock bottom. With some help from Black Canary, she began to seek therapy for her nightmares, insomnia, and the deeper issues involving her trauma. It's been rather touch and go, as therapy goes; some sessions, some weeks, some months have been better than others. She seems to be more grounded and focused... but where that focus may have turned remains to be seen.

She's also gotten a bit more womanly, losing a bit of her androgynous shape during a late growth spurt. She has visible boobs now and she HATES them. ("Does the B in B-cup stand for Bullshit? How am I supposed to fight with these... things on me?")
Notes - *Besides Batman's fondness for scooping up orphans, Batman saw something in Jin- potential. He knew that if she was left on the streets, she'd probably become a very adept, very dangerous criminal within the next 5-10 years. So he decided to turn the path of her destiny, and use her untapped potential for something good.

*Jin's weakness to open spaces is linked to the way she uses her telekinesis to fly. She can't fly for real- what she is actually doing is using her powers to basically fling herself from one point to another, relying on the momentum from each successful push to keep her airborne. With nothing to push herself off of, she can't go too high or fast, and has to rely on hovering over the ground.

Aquaman's Lament
By Aaron James

Sitting in the Hall Of Justice
Is there justice after all
After all when you discuss us
I am the last name you recall

So he might sell a few more comics
As soberly he saves the world
I've had seven gin and tonics
And I want you to be my girl

I could take you to Atlantis
It makes that cave look like a hole
Tie one on on the Titanic
Vicci Vale my heart you stole

Have you ever had the notion
That he's just a rat with wings
I'm the king of 7 oceans
And Vicci You're my everything

Barring maritime disasters
I have got some time to spare
While he's all tied up with Robin
In a cape and underwear

I could take you to Atlantis
It makes that cave look like a hole
Tie one on on the Titanic
Vicci Vale my heart you stole

If you see it with objective
He is just Bruce Wayne in tights
You could be a bit selective
And have free seafood every night

Well, I could understand
If he were Superman
After all that cat can fly
But take away that Batmobile
That boat, that belt, that butler
He's just another boring guy

I could take you to Atlantis
It makes that cave look like a hole
Tie one on on the Titanic
Vicci Vale my heart you stole

If you look at it from my side
Of the heros that you've met
He's a bit more on the dry side
Everything's better when wet

The first in a series of flashbacks is posted! I hope the three sentences of dialogue I gave Hawkman were alright- he's one of those DC characters that I'm unfamiliar with.

Hey Rumiko, a thought just came to me. There's always reports of animals, cats and dogs mostly, being able to sense and detect the supernatural. You think Fenrir would be able to do that with Shadowdancer?

^^^Sounds like a good assumption and would add a cool effect. This would also play into his friendship with Phil...

I suppose so but if I remember correctly animals usually react with a bit of paranoia when they perceive the supernatural
