Name: Eternity (AKA: Big Cosmicdude, Ernie)
Superhero identity: N/A
Age: 13,819,627,000 years old
Brief History:

Born "shortly" after the Big Bang that created the Universe, along with "siblings" Death, Oblivion, and Infinity. It's domain is time, and the consciousness of all living things in the universe, with the exception of the Living Tribunal. As an abstract being his true origins and exact nature remain unknown, perhaps unknowable to any but those that exist on his primal level.

Eternity was one of a handful of cosmic beings that witnessed the emergence of the cosmic disturbance they have dubbed "The End", and presumably, was tasked by the One Above All to do something about it. Realizing it cannot leave it's home multiverse to follow the disturbance in order to study it, Eternity sought out mortals that could be trusted with the task. To further complicate matters, eternal beings of a dimension Eternity has encountered before have "borrowed" Death, prompting Eternity to speed up his search for a trusted mortal to such a degree Eternity was forced to turn to the first available mortal with any connections to mortal heroes: Peter Quill...or as he is otherwise known, Star Lord.

Name: Peter Quill
Superhero identity: Star Lord
Age: 30 standard Earth years
Brief History:

Default leader of the "Guardians of the Galaxy", Peter's actions in stopping Ronan the Accuser from destroying the galaxy and removing the Power Gem to safety with the Nova Empire caught Eternity's attention. The more Eternity examined Peter Quill, the supreme being decided Quill would not make an ideal agent for saving the infinity-verse. Actions beyond Eternity's control forced the being's hand, and Quill was called to action...despite the fact that "Star Lord" initially tried to bargain his way out of the role.

Peter decided against bringing his fellow Guardians with him, in case the "big galaxy lookin' dude" was just going to get him killed; Star Lord refused to allow his fellow Guardians to go down with he and the Milano. Reluctantly Peter points his ship in the direction of Earth, a place he has had no interest in returning to since his mother's death, to collect those Eternity has ordered him to collect for their cause. While Eternity said he couldn't go around telling everyone what was going on, universal destruction or some non-sense, the big galaxy lookin' dude never said ANYTHING about not taking any pit stops along the way. You know, for refreshment...or a fine young hunny to warm his bed.

Name: Omar Rakeem
Superhero Identity: N/A
Age: 27
Brief Bio:

Born and raised in some of Chicago's worst areas, guided by a strong NCAAP activist and morally stout Muslim father, Omar never messed with the thug scene, the drug game, or street culture in general. Ever a nerd into robots, skateboards, comic books, and videogames as well as a straight A student that attended some of Chicago's most dangerous public schools. Anything but sheltered, just disinterested in the Godless and a pacifist at heart that believes jihad and murder have no part in a soul truly observant of Islam. Despite his pacifism, Omar takes after his father and has never been a quiet observer on the sidelines: a neighborhood leader, an active member of protest movements (the Occupy movement only his latest), refuses to vote (believing the American political system corrupted), sees Capitalism as soulless, and celebrity/material worship as a plague of modern society.

A graduate of Northwestern with an Engineering degree, Omar returned to his old neighborhood after graduating when his father died shortly before he finished school. Determined to do something for the neighborhood, Omar took he and his father's combined life savings and purchased a store front that had been vacant since the movie rental business was taken over by Netflix and Red Box, giving the south side hood of Chicago a comic book store that dared to put Captain America right up front display next to the Black Panther.

Though he doesn't know it yet, Omar has a key part to play in the struggle to save the multiverse, as an unknowing wielder of an Infinity Gem.

Name: Jean Grey
Superhero identity: Marvel Girl, Phoenix
Age: 32 years old
Brief History:

Jean Grey is a founding member of the X-Men, and an Omega level mutant. At least, she was, before her life and life's mission were derailed when a cosmic entity known only as the Phoenix Force possessed her to the point where even those closest to Jean, such as Charles Xavier, couldn't tell where Jean began and the Phoenix Force ended. Though she has saved the world numerous times, and a few galaxies to boot, it was never the less her actions during what has come to be known as the "Dark Phoenix Incident" that became her prevailing reputation in the cosmos, away from Earth; that of a mass-murderer on a scale even most cosmic supervillains would envy, with a body count easily in the billions.

In a twist of fate, it is Jean Grey, and she alone, that ultimately stopped the reign of terror by sacrificing herself in order to stop the by then vengeful Phoenix Force from causing any more harm and death. This is often glossed over by many cosmic residents.

When the cosmic entity known as Death disappeared from the multiverse, a strange thing happened: Jean Grey, seemingly free from the Phoenix Force, rematerialized reanimated exactly upon the very spot where she took her own life over half a decade before. Officials from the Shi'ar Empire respondedly immediately, taking the Omega level into custody, noting she offered no resistance. The impending trial of Jean Grey for the crimes of the Phoenix has become the greatest story in the galaxy, spreading from empire to empire to empire, even reaching those on Earth tuned into the goings-on of the cosmos.

Name: James Buchanan Barnes.

Superhero identity: Captain America.

Age: Technically ninety years old, but physically in his mid-twenties due to the magic of cryogenics.

Brief History:

Once the teenaged sidekick of Captain America, Bucky was thought lost in 1945 to an explosion caused by Heinrich Zemo. In fact Bucky was found by Soviet soldiers who wiped the sidekick's brain, fitted him with a prosthetic arm, and programmed him to assassinate enemies of the Soviet Union. In between assassinations "The Winter Soldier", as Barnes would come to be known, would have his mind wiped once more and be placed in a cryogenic sleep until he was needed again. It isn't until the fall of the Soviet Union that Barnes reappears under the control of Aleksander Lukin, former KGB agent turned Kronas CEO.

After some time Steve Rogers is able to break Lukin's hold over Bucky using the Cosmic Cube and restore his sidekick's memories to him. Bucky disappears, traumatised by the knowledge of the crimes he had committed, reappearing upon learning that Steve had been arrested in the fallout of the superhero "civil war" over the Registration Act with intents to break him free. Instead he watched on whilst Steve was shot dead. In the aftermath, Bucky is approached by Tony Stark with a proposition: carry the shield and keep Steve's memory alive by becoming the Captain America the world so desperately needs. A reluctant Bucky accepts, knowing he'd never be able to stomach someone else in Steve's uniform, and sets about trying to live up to the mantle.

Name: Jeanne Marie Beaubier
Superhero identity: Aurora
Age: 25
Brief History: Jeanne Marie was born a twin, to two loving parents who unfortunately died when she was very young. Her brother was taken in by cousins of their father, but she was sent to a catholic boarding school essentially. She was shy and bullied mercilessly. When she was 13, her powers came in, but being so religious she couldn't accept it. Coupled with the torture one of the nuns put her through when they found out about her powers, Jeanne Marie developed multiple personality disorder. The first being Jeanne Marie, who desperately hates her mutation and mutants in general, the second being Aurora who is carefree, enjoys life and all it's vices pretty much. She also has a third personality than only comes out when she's in extreme danger and likes to see blood just a bit too much.

After Aurora reunited with her brother, she found herself part of Alpha Flight, helping with some missions but mostly on the sidelines for the moment.

Matt's life took a dramatic turn when he pushed an old man out of the way of a truck carrying an experimental isotope, although the old man was saved Matt was blinded by the isotope. With one of his senses gone, his other senses compensated, however with the exposure to the radiation they compensated to such a degree that they reached superhuman levels.

While in hospital Matt was visited by a man named Stick who trained him to use his enhanced senses to become a powerful fighter. When Matt was old enough to attend college he went to Columbia university where he studied law desperate to bring justice to the place he had grown up in, his father fixing fights for the mafia in order to pay for his tuition. Eventually 'Battlin Jack' was asked to throw the fight of his career for a huge payoff, stubborn to a fault he refused to do so and the mafia, not appreciating his attitude decided it was time 'Battlin Jack' became one for the history books and gunned him down.

Matt, overwhelmed with anger at his father's death chased down the mob donning a homemade costume and the moniker "Daredevil", after bludgeoning the men who were responsible he became a costumed vigilante protecting hell's kitchen.

Nowadays Matt has graduated from Columbia and works at his law firm Nelson and Murdock, his career as Daredevil continues despite the tabloids constant attempts to out Murdock as the masked hero. Still fighting on the streets of New York, Matt is completely unaware of how bizarre he will find the next few months.
