[@Hillan] A back flip does not make a ninja sir! [@XxFellsingxX] Yup, she is. Can't wait to see if she's still as smug after facing the League. Speaking of, here's the League as it looks so far. Just need to finish the last three men of death. [hider=The League of Shadows] [Hider=Ra's al Ghul] [u][b]Name[/b][/u] - Ra's al Ghul [u][b]Alias[/b][/u] - The Demon's Head [u][b]Age [/b][/u]- Over seven hundred years old [u][b]Powers[/b][/u] - Ra's al Ghul is a superb fighter, perhaps the most deadly sword wielder alive. Al Ghul has had centuries of training and practice, making them more than a match for Batman himself. Through use of the alchemical Lazarus Pits, al Ghul has been able to prolong his life considerably and can also transfer his soul into other bodies through ancient rituals. In addition, Ra's has a mind naturally inclined towards science and analysis. They are an excellent strategist and tactician. Over his centuries of existence, Ra's has amassed an enormous amount of information, resources, and wealth. She keeps several hundred clones of her current body, meaning she has a surplus stock of replacement organs and tissues for whenever she is injured. [u][b]Weaknesses[/b][/u] - Despite his enhanced strength and agility, Ra's is no more durable than a normal human. [u][b]Appearance[/b][/u] - Years ago Ra's original body began to reject the wonders of the Lazarus pits. They no longer rejuvenated him as they once did. Knowing his time on earth was short, and his mission far from complete, The Demon's Head pursued another avenue towards immortality. Using foul magics and ancient rituals he inserted his mind and soul into the body of his daughter, [url=http://i.imgur.com/Sy7zbUP.jpg?1]Talia al Ghul[/url]. He wears deceptively archaic looking armour under a robe and collar of rich red with gold trim. [u][b]Weapons[/b][/u] - Ra's [url=http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/12/121489/2379635-sss02full800.jpg] sword [/url] is never far from his hand. [b][u]Notes[/u][/b] - One of the most deadly individuals on the planet, one does not take the decision to face the Demon's Head lightly. [/hider] [hider=Lady Shiva] [u][b]Name[/b][/u] - Cassandra Cain [u][b]Alias[/b][/u] - Lady Shiva [u][b]Age [/b][/u]- 35 [u][b]Powers[/b][/u] -Due to the harsh training she went through as a child, Cassandra is one of the greatest martial artists in the world and is a master assassin. Her physical skills, especially her speed and reactions, are so great as to appear superhuman. Some of her feats include shattering brick and stone with her bare hands, using nerve strikes and pressure points to disable meta-human foes and dodging bullets fired at her from point blank range. She has invented her own styles and techniques. She is skilled in being able to comprehend a person's body movements as if it were language or speech, and thus knows what actions a person will use before they actually do. Her ability to comprehend body language enables her to quickly learn new martial arts style. She has learnt to use her mothers trademark ability, 'The Leopard Blow', a strike capable of killing even the hardiest of opponents. [u][b]Weaknesses[/b][/u] - Lady Shiva's only weakness could be that she is over confident in her abilities. [u][b]Appearance[/b][/u] - [url=http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/arkhamcity/images/0/03/Lady_shiva.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140618113507]Lady Shiva[/url] [u][b]Weapons[/b][/u] - Nothing but her bare hands. She's never needed more than that in the past. [b][u]Notes[/u][/b] - Cassandra in this universe never managed to escape her mother and father, instead becoming the perfect weapon they always wanted her to be. Several years ago she defeated her mother in mortal combat, taking the Lady Shiva name for herself. Ra's has made her The Sensei, the one responsible for the training of his troops. She takes the role very seriously. [/hider] [Hider=The Seven Men of Death] [hider=Merlyn the Dark Archer] [u][b]Name[/b][/u] - Arthur Merlyn [u][b]Alias[/b][/u] - the Dark Archer, the Magician [u][b]Age [/b][/u]- 54 [u][b]Powers[/b][/u] - Merlyn is one of the most skilled archers on the planet, perhaps the greatest after the passing of Oliver Queen. His skill is so great that he has been seen to shoot arrows out of flight, ricochet arrows off of surfaces and even strike several targets in the same move. He is also a trained hand-to-hand combatant. While not quite at the level of true martial artists, he has more than enough skill to dominate the uninitiated. He has been entrusted with leading the Seven Men of Death, which means not only is he one of the most deadly assassins of the Shadows, but Ra's trusts his tactical prowess as well. [u][b]Weaknesses[/b][/u] - Merlyn is no longer as young as he once was, not as fast or as strong. Some even say his eyes may be going. However nobody has ever been stupid enough to say it to his face. [u][b]Appearance[/b][/u] - Merlyn wears a [url=http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/11/117031/3406081-dark+archer.png]darker version of the costume[/url] once donned by Oliver Queen. [u][b]Weapons[/b][/u] - Merlyn's [url=http://i.imgur.com/wJGshUC.jpg]bow[/url] is a true technical marvel. It features multiple choices of draw weights for targets at different ranges or requiring different stopping power, hydraulic assisted arms, laser sighting, automatic reload system and is bio-metrically tuned to magician himself. While he does prefer to use regular carbon broad heads, he will use 'trick arrows', when it is called for. Trick arrows include tazer arrows, thermite arrows, fragmentation arrows and tranquilizer arrows. [b][u]Notes[/u][/b] - A combination of Arthur King from the comics, and Malcolm Merlyn from the tv show 'Arrow'. [/hider] [hider=The Heretic] [u][b]Name[/b][/u] - Ibn al Xu'ffasch [u][b]Alias[/b][/u] - The Heretic [u][b]Age [/b][/u]- 10, though genetically engineered to physical peak [u][b]Powers[/b][/u] - Through a combination of the armour he wears genetic engineering, and the super steroid Venom, the Heretic has superhuman strength and power. Ibn can easily lift grown men with one hand, send foes flying with his strikes and crack men's skulls in his bare hands. He also has superhuman durability, showing very little reaction unless a superhuman opponent strikes him. As well as his physical stats, the Heretic has incredible skill in unarmed combat. He uses his shear power to fight in conjunction with his martial ability to overpower his foes. [u][b]Weaknesses[/b][/u] - Al Xu'ffasch isn't very intelligent, his development more geared towards creating an unthinking weapon rather than a rounded human being, though he does have a savage cunning on the battlefield. [u][b]Appearance[/b][/u] - [url=http://i.imgur.com/fjbsnfm.png?1]The Heretic[/url] cuts an imposing figure, standing in his armour at slightly over seven feet tall. [u][b]Weapons[/b][/u] - The Heretic usually prefers to merely use his size, power and fighting skills to beat his foes, though he does carry some utility objects in the pouches crossed upon his chest. Grenades, flash-bangs, knives, bolas. [b][u]Notes[/u][/b] - This is the 2020 universe's version of Damian Wayne, though one that was only ever raised to be an unthinking weapon rather than the future leader of the League of Shadows, or inheritor of Batman's mantle. [/hider] [hider=Manotaur] [u][b]Name[/b][/u] - Mark Ross [u][b]Alias[/b][/u] - Manotaur [u][b]Age [/b][/u]- 23 [u][b]Powers[/b][/u] - Ross's most obvious power's are the strength his bull like visage would give him. He possess incredible strength, able to lift well over thirty tonnes. His speed is also impressive, able to run at a dead sprint of almost thirty miles per hour. Perhaps at odds with his brutish visage, Manotaur also has a genius level intellect. He has developed his own armour and weapons, most of it by combining alien technology with human innovations. His armour contains its own forcefield that is more than strong enough to withstand a direct blast from a tank shell. [u][b]Weaknesses[/b][/u] - While intelligent, Ross easily falls into beserker rages. If inflammed enough his more animal instincts will take precdence over higher level thinking. When that happens he becomes just as much a liability as a asset to his fellow Men of Death. [u][b]Appearance[/b][/u] - [url=http://i.imgur.com/QGTtODO.jpg]Manotaur[/url] appears like a minotaur from ancient myth. His armour is designed to evoke that worn by the hoplites of old. [u][b]Weapons[/b][/u] - Manotaur's prime weapon is his [url=http://i.imgur.com/bAR4pcw.jpg]rail gun[/url], a rifle capable of blasting through plate steel. If foes make it to close combat distance Ross will equip his [url=http://i.imgur.com/5gjPind.png]battle axe.[/url] [b][u]Notes[/u][/b] - He and the Heretic serve as the Men of Death's main muscle. Manotaur started off in Kingdom Come, and to my knowledge DC have never used him since. [/hider] [hider=Rattlesnake] [u][b]Name[/b][/u] - Unknown [u][b]Alias[/b][/u] - Rattlesnake [u][b]Age [/b][/u]- Appears to be in mid thirties [u][b]Powers[/b][/u] - Rattlesnake got his name from his viper like quickness with a pistol. He's a brilliant shot, with reflexes quick enough to challenge Lady Shiva. [u][b]Weaknesses[/b][/u] - Rattlesnake isn't quite the hand to hand combatant other members of the League are. His style is far more rough and ready brawling than refined martial artistry. While better than your average street tough in a fist fight, he can't really take a dedicated fighter. [u][b]Appearance[/b][/u] - [url=http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/305/6/3/call_of_juarez_gunslinger_render_by_ni8crawler-d5jmh5z.png]Rattlesnake[/url] stands about 6'2" tall, lean as a whip and as tough as old boot leather. [u][b]Weapons[/b][/u] - Twin [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/d0/64/e5/d064e56cd1009cfce4d7c597dacb0225.jpg]revolvers[/url] and [b][u]Notes[/u][/b] - OC [/hider] [/hider] [hider=The League of Shadows assassins] [img]http://th08.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/f/2013/139/9/5/ninjas_by_daroz-d65tyak.jpg[/img] [u][b]Details[/b][/u] - A group of assassins and terrorists. Each one is a martial artist of incredible and deadly skill. Most prefer to use weaponry from bygone eras, such as swords, kusarigama and shuriken, though they will use assault rifles and grenades if the situation calls for it. [/hider] [hider=Man-Bat Commandos] [img]http://i.imgur.com/skWrfl1.jpg?2[/img] [u][b]Details[/b][/u] - A select group of elite League of Shadow members given Dr Kirk Langstrom's Man-Bat serum. Sonic echolocation, flight and amazing speed is offset by the brittleness of their hollow bones. They come armed with bladed weapons, bolas, and shuriken. [/hider] [/hider]
