[b]Name -[/b] John Brooks [b]Alias - [/b]The Punisher [b]Age - [/b]27 [b]Appearance -[/b] [hider=The Punisher] (He has brown hair and blue eyes.)[img]http://www.comicbookresources.com/images/previews/marvelcomics/timestorm/Punisher-2099-.jpg[/img][/hider] [b]Social Class -[/b] High [b]Powers -[/b] While John doesn't have any actual powers he is in peak physical condition and skilled in various fighting styles and techniques. On top of that he possesses an iron will which allows him to resist telepathic attacks or readings if he's prepared for it. While his physical prowess and skills allow him to take on lesser thugs with little issue, when it comes to bigger, badder foes he resorts to what he is known for: his weapons. While John has multiple safe houses all over Nueva York, each containing a variety of weapons (including some stolen ones from those that have been beaten by him) he always keeps a few essentials on him at all times: -Lead covered, Carbonadium vest: The Punisher wears his trusty vest to dampen blows from super foes and hopefully stop any projectiles shot at him. -Multi-purpose Glove with holographic display. -Custom made Needle Gun: A modified nail gun, it is capable of firing out small needles that can be adorned with multiple different chemical concoctions such as paralytic poison, actual poison, adrenaline (to help out a teammate or make the enemy lose their composer) and other chemicals. -2 Synth-virbanium alloy knuckledusters: A pair of knuckledusters made from Synthetic-Vibranium and brass alloy. -Various grenades: At the very least, John keeps four grenades at his disposal at most times. While a majority are simply the classic explosion, he has other more unique grenades (Ex: EMP, incinerating, chemical agent, etc). -Safe houses/weapon caches: While he is more than capable of holding own in a fight, sometimes he needs to bump up his arsenal or visit a safe house for some rest, so The Punisher keeps some safe houses/weapon caches around Nueva York for just an occasion. Weaknesses - -His vest while very durable, if damaged, can become more of an issue than the enemy as A) it could give him lead poisoning and B) It could give him radiation Poisoning from the Carbonadium. -Despite his abilities John is still human and a gunshot can end it all in a second. [b]Personality -[/b] John is a very angry person but doesn't show it much, even in combat he keeps his composure well. While he is often seen as a serious man he still has a sense of humor underneath his tough exterior. [b]Motivation -[/b] John wants to get his revenge on Alchemax above all else. [b]BRIEF Bio -[/b] John worked as a mercenary for many years, often being hired by Alchemax to do hits that they didn't want to sick their public eye into. After a while John saved enough money to retire very early and open his own chain of restaurants. After turning down a few hits from Alchemax, the Public eye was sent after him to tie up loose ends. While he managed to take out quite a few of his attackers, ultimately John got knocked out the window of his apartment and he plummeted down to the streets below. John woke up two days later in a room only illuminated by a old fashioned television, displaying a news story of how John Brooks jumped from his high rise apartment though no body was found. John was very confused by this but his confusion was replaced with anger as he remembered the Public eye was the ones who took him out. John was going to get his revenge so he stood up and turned only to come face to face with a punisher costume along with a plethora of weapons and gadgets with a note pinned to the costume reading "Take what they took from you. -Mr.W". This is how John Brooks became The Punisher. [b]Notes - [/b] -While John is curious about how he survived the fall from his apartment, he is more interested in taking down Alchemax. -If I think of some more infamous weapon that John could use (Ex: Goblin glider) I'll ask first and have it be found in one of his safe houses/weapon caches.
