@Elitestpotato So you know in advance, I think your powers are too OP. Just reduce their power and I think the GM will accept you.

The whole point of the character is that he has these super awesome powers that he only uses for selfish or even useless reasons. Just because he can do it doesn't mean he'll decide not to be lazy and do it. If I have to tone them down, so be it, but that is the point of the character.

Name: Joseph 'Joe' Boyes

Codename: Eradicator

City of Operation: Cleveland

Appearance:

The mask over his mouth is able to be taken off to reveal his mouth.

Age: 42

Gender: Male

Superpowers:
-Increased aspects of the human body with the greatest increase being in strength.
-Able to track moving objects using his robotic eye and then use this to hit it using a firearm from a distance away.
-Able to theoritically learn a new skill by plugging himself into the internet and scanning it for any information on said skill, though this takes hours at a time and consists of Joseph sitting there doing nothing for that period of time.
-His body is essentially coated in a layer of metal capable of stopping bullets. Although multiple bullets during one sitting can pierce through the metal and go straight for his internal organs.

Skills/ Talents: What are things you know how to do? Are you an expert martial artist? A speaker of five languages? This is the space for things you have learned how to do through practice and experience.
-Knowledge of computers and engineering
-Knows a few hand to hand fighting styles
-Expert shot with a firearm

Equipment:
-Joseph's main weapon is a sub-machine gun/pistol of his own creation. The gun is capable of switching between ammo types and firing styles in order to accustom itself to a situation. It includes non-lethal rounds along with subsonic rounds and of course normal bullets.
-A bowie knife hangs on the back of his belt

Weaknesses:
-Potentially able to be hacked by someone with sufficient skill to do so. Although this is incredibly hard to do.
-Under the metal he is completely human and therefore able to be killed through human methods should someone break through the metal coating.
-The metal tube on his chest is his main source of life. Although it is hard to be broken or taken out if it is taken out then Joseph will die within a matter of hours if it is not replaced.

Psyche:
Joseph has a cynical look on the world. His experiences in the military along with his disfigurement has made him distrustful of others and society as a whole. He often has himself thinking about who the real heroes and villains are when encountered by a villain who claims to be doing it for the 'greater good'. He is one of the more popular heroes, but sort of dislikes his publicity and would prefer to be left away from the media.

History:
Joseph Boyes was born to a caring family in Rochester, Minnesota. While his family were very caring and took more than good care of Joseph they were very determined in what they wanted him to be. Joseph came from a very militaristic family with just about every member having been involved with the military in some way or another. As a result he was pushed into considering a military career from a young age. To tell the truth, Joseph was much more interested in science and machinery than he was in the military. But alas, he didn't want to disappoint his family and joined the marines when he was 18. Suffice to say he regretted it as soon as he arrived.

His time in the military was one of the most horrific in his life. He fought in the Somali Civil War in a small squadron used mainly for night operations. Most of his missions went fine, with only a bullet wound here or a scratch there being the only thing that went wrong during missions. But one night his squad was ambushed and his squad leader was shot through the skull. Joseph can still remember the copper smell of the blood as it splashed onto his face along with the feeling of gray matter sliding down his cheek. His squad managed to make it out alive but never retrieved the body.

After Joseph returned home he was a changed man. His once plucky and enthusiastic attitude had changed to one of cynicism and regret. He didn't care for his family's opinion when he went to university to study engineering and cared even less so when he achieved a job doing what he loved, building computers. The company he worked for were at the forefront of computing that is until Knight technology came along a few decades later. Knight technology was growing at a incredibly quick rate and soon took over Joseph's company. Joseph was lucky enough to be one of the few scientists they kept working at the organisation. With the help of the advanced research technology, Joseph helped propel the business to new horizons on the computer front. That is, until the white rain poured down upon him.

At first, he took the rain as nothing. Stranger things had happened, fish had fallen from the sky before for Pete's sake a bit of discoloured rain was nothing. He wished he had taken the rain more seriously after what had happened a week after. He was working late in the lab, helping to create new military weapons and the like using a new advanced supercomputer he had helped craft. Things in the room slowly began shuffling towards Joseph, gaining in speed until they flew full force into him. Yet he felt nothing. The objects seemed to merge with him, he only noticed when the supercomputer he was typing on merged into his hands. He felt a grotesque pain as the metal kevlar prototype merged with his skin and the computer merged with his brain. He felt himself becoming less and less human until the final blow was struck. The shifting of the objects had loosened an experimental flamethrower that fell and burned Joseph to a crisp. He was sent to the hospital as soon as he was found. It turns out the metal had shielded him from most of the damage, but his skin was still hideously burned.

After he was able to leave the hospital, he lived as a hermit for a few years. Hardly talking to anyone and having most of his supplies delivered to him whilst working from home, building computers for 'nerds' as he called them. After a while though, more and more heroes began coming out to the public and showing what good their powers could do. Joseph decided to get off his behind and put himself to good use, doing the same. He was pretty different from the other heroes, all pristine in their skin tight costumes, leaping around and punching blokes before handing them over to the police in time for dinner. Joseph's method was much more direct, in fact he created a media presence for himself with his 'battle' with a villain. The villain had escaped prison more than once and was in the middle of his monologue when Joseph shot him in the kneecap and dragged him by his stupid cape all the way to the police department. He's done hero work ever since that, gaining quite the reputation for himself.
