"Do you know my real name?"
Real Name: Unknown, goes by 'Ammon'
Superhero Name: Osiris
Age: Unknown, millenia
Power:
-Does not age
-Control, creation and invulnerability to flame.
-Enhanced aspects of the human body
Bio:
Ammon was born under the reign of the Pharaoh Tutankhamun as a slave. His life was tough growing up, and he was forced into helping build various wonders such as the pyramids and the sphinx throughout his life. That is until one faithful night when he discovered his 'gift'. He had woken up in the middle of the night, and was struggling to get to sleep when his hand felt strangely warm. He investigated the situation and found a small ball of flame dancing in the palm of his hand.

He kept his power a secret for the most part, honing it at night when no one could see him. He eventually escaped using his powers one night, but was caught by a guard in the middle of his daring escape. Ammon lashed out, slashing the guard across the face with a whip of flame, scarring the guard for the rest of his life. A second guard arrived shortly, having seen Ammon's ability. This guard was much more savvy than the other enraged one though, and saw a promotion in his future if he showed Ammon to the right people. And so the cycle began. First it was a slave master, and then a noble and then it went all the way until Tutankhamun himself had met Ammon. 

This was when Ammon's life turned around completely. Tutankhamun took a liking to Ammon and granted his freedom along with pay in exchange for protection and a few tricks to be shown here and there from Ammon. Things were cushy for a while, but things turned sour when king Tut died. As was customary, his workers and whatnot were to be buried with him so they would travel with him into the afterlife. This included, Ammon. He was put inside the tomb in the hopes that he'd never be let out.

They underestimated Ammon.

He bided his time, and eventually 'died' as it were. Essentially he was put into a coma of sorts, comparable to a caterpillar in it's cocoon. He was awoken in 1922 by the explorer, Howard Carter. The only downside was that he had lost his memory. He could recall various blotches of memory from his past life, mainly about his time with king Tut but everything else was generally lost in time. Carter helped him get back on his feet and eventually Ammon fought in WW2, among the desert rats.

He lost his memory for a second time after the squad he was fighting with was struck by a grenade. Ammon was lucky enough to be just out of the lethal blast radius, but was sent tumbling down a crevice, to fall asleep for a time longer.

He woke up in 2009, in a world far different from the one he had fallen asleep in. Again, he had forgotten a large amount of his life and could only remember tiny blotches of information from his time with king tut, along with a small amount of memories from his time in WW2. He began tracing his history back, becoming something of an anomaly among the people he met along his journey. He eventually ended up in, New Horn City, and was accepted into The Big 5 after using his powers to save a woman from being mugged.

Real Name: James Matling
Superhero Name: Electrik
Age: 25
Power: Can manipulate electricity
Bio: James was caught in a thunderstorm and subsequently was struck by lightning, and left for dead, in a coma for 3 weeks. He came out of it and discovered he had strange powers in which he could control electricity. Once he found out he was able to manipulate all forms of electricity and being able to harness electricity from not only lightning strikes, but all forms of where electricity is generated, he decided to be a super hero. As a kid, he read a bunch of super hero comics and watched many shows involving super heroes as well and wanted to be like them. After gaining his powers, he decided that he was part of this society and wanted to be one of them. Years passed and he became an amazing hero, helping and saving many people. 

An altercation when The Legion of Chaos kidnapped Elektrik's girlfriend, Mary Rhodes. This was a tricky situation because Elektrik vowed to save her, but he couldn't let her know it was him that was saving her. He made his attempt to save her, but The Legion of Chaos got in the way and his attempt was foiled and a fight broke out in the street, leading to Mary being hit by a car and killed. It was since that day that Elektrik vowed he would find out the Legion of Chaos' identities and bring them to justice. It was after this that he formed the group The Big 5 and their goal was to not only save and help people, but bring down the Legion of Chaos as well.

"If you are a self proclaimed hero reading this then consider yourself dishonest. How that sits with you, with your "holier than thou" conscious upon most matters, might vary by personality, but it remains a truth all the same. After all, are you not supposed to be... 'the good guys'? Uphold some greater cause or ideal for your fellow men? To be the 'light in the hour of darkness'? The one thing that can oppose 'evil'?"

True Name
Mark Chayce

Aliases
Dreadfang
The name "Dreadfang" arises not by choice, but assumed instead from the works of the media, of which recognizes the truly supernatural aspects of his abilities. No less made out to be an unabashed villain by major outlets, something fear worthy and unsettling was decided upon to better label his talent, nature and apparent demeanor as a savage. In spite of this, "Dreadfang" admires the title, assuming it for his own uses and considering it an honor that his enemies feel such terror at his deeds to bestow a term just for him - one that no less grants him notoriety and prestige.

AllegianceThe Legion of Chaos (?)There is little doubt in the minds of any that Dreadfang's alliance with the Legion of Chaos is a matter of opportunity; a decision made upon grey morals and necessity. No friend of those who believe themselves "heroes of the modern era", destined to lead humanity into some "greater place", Mark Chayce collaborates out of the need for others to help advance his own cause. Truthfully, he adheres to no other beliefs but those of his own and makes no mistake to this.

Age
31

PowersSavage MindHaving been touched by a truly spiritual experience beyond mortal comprehension, Mark Chayce received a vision that forever altered his mind - the resulting supernatural gifts of the event having made him resistant to mind-affecting effects among others.
Mark of the WildGranted the attributes of one of the world's greatest predators, the tiger, even as a mere man Mark Chayce retains its abilities in the flesh, be them its immense strength, incredible reflexes or heightened senses among all others. Subsequently able to exceed normal human physical limits, he can do what is oft impossible for average men. No less in this supernatural boon he receives minor resilience and healing factor beyond this, with the added ability to command animals at will.
Wild ShapeAble to supernaturally assume the form of an uncharacteristically large tiger in but less than a moment, Mark Chayce only compounds his already inhuman ability by adding yet another, even more savage layer. The act of shapeshifting, of which is fluid and hardly time consuming, allows him to cycle between man and beast in moment's time and the process itself mends minor injuries of which are not mortal. As a tiger, compounded by his other supernatural boons, his claws and fangs rend steel and his recovery and resilience are far greater - truly magical in nature. Although unable to speak, he retains his mental command of animals while so transformed.

Description
While but over six feet in height Mark Chayce is no giant in pure stature, his physical form is that of a finely honed natural weapon; evenly muscled throughout, his appearance invokes the same sort of assessment would of an apex predator - something designed for but one purpose, of which is to hunt lesser things. As with the animal he is now forever bonded with, he has become something of the savage domain, to the point that his very flesh and blood is forever altered. Now bearing darkened, near black hair kept short, cropped and clean, his tanned skin features minor scars of his various wounds healed and his ambered eyes shine with dedicated passion to a cause.

While no master of disguise, Mark Chayce does make a good habit to emulate those he considers his enemy so as to move more freely; incognito and posing as a mere man. Often assuming the appearance of an authority figure, varying from business men to police officers, he dresses and plays the part exceptionally well, carrying out the roles to the point most assume he is exactly what he appears to be, rather than what he truthfully is. This quality has made him difficult to actually identify, as without his iconic form to go by, none are truly certain who the Dreadfang is.

Acting with preparation, Dreadfang tends to wear functional clothing, such as cargo pants, boots, simple shirts and more often than not, body armor, where possible or practical. Versed in the application of conventional and military hardware and tactics, he is at no disadvantage while operating conventional weapons like those of firearms, even preferring to keep them on his person.

Biography
Seven years ago Mark Chayce disappeared all but completely from his life as a failed student. Having previously majored in biology, with a subset in philosophy, he found ever increasing turmoil and conflicting feelings for the highly advanced world around him, many of which left him with far too many questions and far fewer answers. Described as highly withdrawn, he seemingly left without apparent warning on the morning of September 27th, leaving behind no notice as to what became of him. Despite becoming a missing person, Mark Chayce was not seen for almost six years.

Previously presumed dead, he returned to the United States under a different name. Having traveled the world over, seeking some sort of answers, he assumed at some point a vision of what it was he was to do. This experience, truly supernatural, arose out of a near-death experience during his time in India, where having fallen to his apparent death whilst alongside a mountain, Mark Chayce survived for the next few years under the watch of an inhuman force. Weaned back to life by an adoptive mother, an elder tigress, his lapses in consciousness were peaked by a voice of which he did not know.

While questioning his reality and the outright impossibility of his situation, Mark Chayce began to both request of and listen to the unknown speaker as she provided unnatural insight and accuracy to things that could not be known. As time progressed and his wounds healed, his beastly savior continued to protect and attend to him, all while accompanied by the unknowable mentor. At last again able to function on his own and so enlightened by the events, Mark Chayce began to inquire further the reason for being spared several fold.

Informed he was to be granted this second chance on behalf of the animal world, whose domain held his life in its balance, he questioned further what was to be done with it. The answer, while immediately unsettling, was no different from what could be expected from a spirit of the animal domain; to fight back for what it claimed as its own. It was now that Mark Chayce submitted to his assumed destiny, acquiring great supernatural power in the process of the embrace. Becoming steeped in the life of the tiger, learning from his companion as she tutored him, he became increasingly less sympathetic to humans.

Practicing, honing his primal art and those of men, Mark Chayce quickly became the Bane of Men - a Mortal Hunter, or a thing refined to wreck havoc upon men. A thing of "justified vengeance", he kept within the region's myth of the weretiger - just as those before him did, discovering he is not the first of the wild's agents. But all did not fare well forever...

With the passing of his beloved companion and the setting of her to rest in the fullest of rights, Mark Chayce knew it was time at last to return to his home and become a living weapon of nature; his experience born out of trial and conflict, he proved far more ready than ever imagined. Having fought as man and beast for six years in the harsh jungle made him a thing worthy of fear - the Dreadfang, or the mentality of a living terror incarnate.

Initial attacks attributed to bizarre instances of terrorism or questionable assassinations through apparent although impossible animal attacks, the rumor of something more began to grow as evidence mounted that these cases were indeed one in the same in source. To compound the psychological effect and further degrade the morale of his enemies, Mark Chayce began to allow his strikes to paint a wide spectrum of targets. None were spared, from the desperate and dying who attempted folk medicine born of illicit animal goods, to industry giants who took part in illegal hunting activities.

Bio

Real Name: 王星雨 (Wang Xing Yu)

Superhero Name: Wendy Wang

Age: 33

Appearance: Wendy is tall and slim, with relatively tanned skin and chocolate brown eyes. She has thick, straight black hair which she usually wears in a high ponytail. Her hair goes halfway down her back, but she is considering cutting it to shoulder length because it can be a pain to keep long hair out of her face. Wendy has long, slender fingers characteristic of a piano player although she has never touched a piano in her life. Wendy has a heart-shaped face and eyes that are rather thin. She has a small, flat-ish nose and average sized lips which are a pale red color. Wendy's feet are small in comparison to the rest of her body. She is about 5 feet and 7 inches and weighs 120 pounds. There is a long, thin scar running down the side of her face from her left eye to where her face meets her neck-can usually be partially hidden by her hair. The scar is the only mark left from a car accident.

Personality: Wendy has always been a relatively relaxed and easygoing person. She is ferociously loyal to her friends and family and a go-with-the-flow kind of person. She's mellow and calm, and keeps a cool head under stressful situations. Wendy is always up for chatting with others, but she tends to keep to herself when she is around people that she is unfamiliar with. Full of soft smiles and gentle words, she can be a pushover at times, with a dislike of hurting other peoples' feelings, but if worst comes to worst then Wendy will bite back. She is not easily provoked and doesn't like getting into fights, and can easily sense how people are feeling. However, if someone or something is threatening people she is close to, Wendy will do whatever it takes to get them out of danger. Wendy is dedicated to any cause that she feels strongly about, and she doesn't wish harm upon others unless they're the ones causing harm in the first place. She likes to appreciate the simple things in life-stopping to smell the flowers, so to speak-and adapting to new situations isn't her strongest area of expertise. She genuinely cares for people, perhaps even too much at times. However, she can take charge under pressure if she knows what she has to do and how she has to do it. During those times, Wendy can transform from a shy, reserved woman to a focused, confident leader in a matter of seconds.

Power: Healing and super speed

Both drain energy fairly easily, but as stated above improving cardio-respiratory endurance will make it easier for Wendy to use both powers for longer periods of time. As for the healing, she isn't much good with sicknesses and diseases-it has to be some external injury that she can see. 

Biography: Wendy was born in the suburbs of Nanjing, China called Lai An (来安). She was an only child, as most of her peers were due to China's one-child policy, and she lived with her mother and father on the fifth floor of an apartment building. Her grandparents on her father's side lived in a one-story house five minutes away, walking. Growing up, Wendy had always been interested in traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, and wanted to become a doctor when she grew up. Her grandfather was an expert on these traditional medical procedures, and she often spent afternoons learning from him about various herbal plants and remedies. Wendy studied hard in school, and eventually got into Johns Hopkins University. She moved to Baltimore, Maryland, and completed college there, with plans to go to graduate school. 

Shortly before Wendy was to fly to America, she was walking across the street at night when a drunk driver came swerving in front of her and almost ran her over. Wendy thought that she was surely going to die, but she managed to survive with only a broken arm and a broken leg. The doctors said she was lucky-somehow, she had moved out of the way fast enough to avoid being totally crushed. Wendy forgot about it for a while, her broken bones her main priority. Wendy was released from the hospital in crutches and a cast, and one morning around two weeks after being let out she woke up to find that her leg was feeling strangely painless. Upon further examination, Wendy realized that it was perfectly healed, which puzzled her. How was that even possible? A few days later, Wendy got up, went to the bathroom to brush her teeth, and accidentally tripped over the last step as she was walking down the stairs, causing bruises to form on her good leg. To Wendy's surprise, silver sparks began shooting from her fingertips and to the bruises. The sparks completely erased the bruises from her skin. Wendy began experimenting. The first thing she did was heal her broken arm-it came as naturally as breathing. She learned how to control the flow of sparks, instead of simply letting them come whenever there was even the slightest of injuries. That was her first power.

A year or so passed, and Wendy continued to hone her healing power, bewildered yet fascinated by it. She found that it was like running-healing continuously without a break would tire her out. At the same time, Wendy began to think back to the accident that led her to discover her power in the first place, remembering how everyone was shocked that she had even survived. Wendy had never been much of a runner, but she decided to start improving her cardio-respiratory endurance if only for the sake of making healing easier. She discovered her second power one day while out on an early-morning run during her first week in America, when her feet began to pick up speed seemingly on their own accord and she ran and ran before stopping, hardly out of breath. Wendy realized that she had ran out of town and into the surrounding countryside. After returning back to her temporary residence in an apartment building, Wendy began to look more into people with powers like her. 

While she completed college and graduate school, Wendy continuously conducted research on so-called superheroes. Of course there was plenty of stuff online, but none of them confirmed the existence of people like her. She became a doctor believing that nobody else in the world could do anything like what she could. Finally, a few months after she became officially certified, Wendy was going for a run in a more rural area when she stumbled upon a victim of a hit-and-run incident. She managed to save him from a certain death, and was just getting ready to leave when a member of The Big 5 confronted her. Wendy was wary but inexplicably drawn to her, and although she never deduced her true identity, Wendy was ecstatic to see that there were truly other superheroes out there. Shortly after, Wendy was admitted into the organization and moved to New Horn City, where she has a job as a doctor and works with her superhero colleagues.

Bio: There isn't much known about Jean Solovyov that hasn't been for the most part redacted by the Russian government. He was created during the last stretch of the Soviet governments reign. Russia has attempted to bury him in hope that their most wretched of mistakes wont come to light. All that's really known was that he was part of a program to try, and build an inhuman weapon. The methods used was manipulation of memories and emotions through the use of drugs. While the subjects were put through hell that resulted in many deaths of the subjects. However, many in the end wound up going insane and the project was abandoned along with those still in the program. That is where the information they have on Jean Solovyov ends.
Sarrasin was first introduced to the public when a French church disappeared into a sphere that none could get past; during Easter Monday when it was packed with people. When it lifted not a single soul was alive all of them eviscerated, and standing in the center was a madly laughing man in pitch black armor. Which had disappeared from a technology lab that'd been attacked under the same circumstances as the church, but there wasn't a laughing maniac enjoying the gore. Before the Police could apprehend him he seemingly vanished to escape from capture with a knife sticking through the priests head, that was made from his own cross. with a note attached on it was a name, a simple yet haunting name: Sarrasin. From that point on he became something of the boogeyman as he'd attack unexpectedly with no real motives making it impossible to track him. The suit that'd been stolen couldn't even be tracked down because someone had managed to dismantle the tracking system.

Personality: Jean is the type capable of wearing many masks in public from countless years of training. Managing to pass as a faceless figure in the masses of people around him. While in the inside he's screaming from pain, and for the only thing that seems to make it ease. The smell of the freshly spilled blood of his victims.

Real Name: Drew Chapman (Real name)/Scarlett Kennedy (Fake name)

Superhero Name: Pendragon

Age: 28

Appearance: Drew is rather tall and slightly muscular woman, standing at 5'11. Her hair is platinum blonde and thin, and is cut into a short, jagged hairstyle. She has light skin and an oval shaped face. Her most distinct feature are her round, amber coloured eyes. She's often seen wearing red lipstick when not wearing her mask.

Whilst out in public, Drew normally wears a long, loose white top and grey jeans, usually accompanied by a pair of brown boots. When Drew is in action, she wears a black trench coat that reaches her knees, a grey top and boots and a black mask that covers her mouth.

- Power: Sword Manipulation: Drew is able to create, shape and manipulate swords. She is capable of producing over a thousand swords at once, which she then uses to throw at her opponents. They often appear as traditional "knightly swords", but on occasion, she is able to create unique swords with different abilities. This, however, takes up a lot of Drew's energy, and so is only used as a last resort.

- Enhanced Swordsmanship: Another one of Drew's powers is her enhanced sword wielding abilities. Drew is able to wield her sword with incredible speed, power and skill. She is able to stop and deflect bullets and even slice through solid material if the sword she has created is strong enough to do so.

- Excalibur (Linked with Sword Manipulation): Excalibur is one of Drew's most powerful sword creations. This is Drew's last resort, as it takes a toll on the user greatly. Using her sword manipulation to create this sword, she uses up a majority of her energy to form Excalibur. This particular sword releases light from the tip of the blade once it's swung, destroying everything in its path. When swung, a large beam of light is emitted, and is able to be seen from an entire mile away, according to Drew herself. The sword's power even gave Drew the name 'Pendragon' by her peers.

Personality: Level-headed and sensible, Drew is a calm and collected individual, and is usually the one to settle things down in certain situations. She's often reserved and a bit quiet, but when in a fit of rage she becomes almost unstoppable, lashing out at those who angered her and willing to kill anyone who gets in her way. Although quite secretive, Drew is a very determined and ambitious woman, willing to do anything to make the world a better place. She carries out her duties accordingly and efficiently, and will get ticked off if someone tries to stop her. Because of her past and the crimes she had committed as a former villain, Drew finds it hard to open up to other members of her group. Even so, she tries not to be too silent and antisocial, as she wants to make friends with others instead of being the lone wolf without any companions.

Bio: Drew was raised in London, England, and was the first and only child to Jocelyn Chapman. Her father had left the two when she was still young, so her mother had to raise her by herself. She wasn't the wealthiest person in the world, having to live in an area dominated by gangs inside a rundown high rise apartment. Even so, Jocelyn tried to raise her child the best she could, doing everything in her power to make Drew's life better in the future. 

Although her life wasn't as pleasant at home, Drew was a good and able student. She had an average amount of friends and received good grades in school. She took a liking to reading and writing, and was given an old book that her mother used to read on her tenth birthday. Taking inspiration from 'The Sword in the Stone', Drew continued to hone her writing skills to become an author when she grew up.

A few months after she had turned ten, everything started to go downhill. Drew's mother had lost her job, but kept it a secret from her daughter in fear that she would sadden her. Jocelyn began to stress out, often laying in her bed as she drowned in her own depression. She grew ill, but, still being the naïve little girl she was, Drew disregarded the fact that her mother might be sickly, passing it off as a one time thing. As her sickness grew worse, Jocelyn decided that she wasn't healthy enough to raise Drew any longer. With the money she had left in the bank, Jocelyn took Drew and flew her to New Horn city, in hopes of finding Drew's father so that he could raise the little girl instead.

Once they finally arrived at the father's house, Jocelyn said her last goodbyes. Not knowing where her mother going was off to, Drew asked when she would be back. Jocelyn replied, "Soon, sweety. Wait for me to come back, okay?"

After that day, she never did.

Drew's life and personality began to change from that point onwards. Unbeknownst to her mother, Drew's father was a drinker, consuming up to a bottle a day on a daily basis. This resulted in one-sided arguments and many bruises, as Drew's father would often take his drunken anger out on her. Scared to no end, Drew would shut herself away in her room every time she came back from school, frightened of invoking her father's wrath. She felt betrayed and lonely. Why wasn't her mother back yet? She had promised that she would be back soon, but it many months had passed since then. Drew came to the conclusion that Jocelyn had left her alone for good, alone in this dark atmosphere and poor excise for a father. The girl grew silent and antisocial, withdrawing herself from other kids.

Years a passed, and Drew entered high school. Of course, she wasn't as social as she was when she was younger, so she didn't make too many friends at school. She was gossiped about quite frequently, with her pale skin and bruises lining her legs and the such when she got changed for P.E. Drew was even bullied at some point because of her unfortunate vulnerability to it. Although she tried to pull herself through her messy high school life, things just weren't going well for her and her father at all.

Once she had entered college, the stress and sadness started to pile on even more. Because Drew lived quite near to her college, her father didn't see the point of staying dorms there. She worked at home in the darkness of her room, while her father would do the usual drinking and watching television. However, it was at the age of twenty that she had discovered her powers.

One day she decided to get some fresh air in the park, reading her beloved Sword in the Stone book during the evening hours. When she came back, an angry father greeted her, yelling his lungs out as soon as he entered. He asked where she had been, but even when she tried to explain where she was, her father cut her off, hitting her across the face. The two argued for thirty minutes, throwing fists and curses at each other. Drew didn't care what he was about to do next. All she wanted to do now was prove a point.

Drew's father had been driven to his limits. He knocked Drew against the wall and started to hit her, over and over again until she started to bleed. He called her a sorry excuse for a being, mocking and teasing her and her mother right in front of her. Drew was beginning to feel exhausted, and her eyes were beginning to slip shut. She was going to die if she didn't do something now. And at the hands of her own father. Why did this have to happen now? Why did she have to go like this? Why did the world have to be so cruel? She began to beg for her mother inside her head, pleading for her to come back.

And, at that moment, she snapped.

Suddenly, in a fit of silent rage, Drew awakened her powers, forming a circle of swords above where he body lay and shot them towards her father. She managed to successfully kill him, leaving them to bleed to death on the carpet. Fascinated by this new discovery, she stabbed her father over and over again, not giving a damn about the mess she was causing. 

"Scum is all you are. You're just like everyone else. Leaving behind what you once loved for your own irrational desires. Disgusting. This whole world is full of scum… but why? Why must I be put in the same category as them? You are not human! All of you are just pigs that disguise yourself in human clothing, always trying to fulfil your wishes by hurting other people in the process. Mum… Dad… all of you. All of you are dirty, wretched scum. I will rid this world of people like you. I've had enough of being betrayed and left alone! Now die, you wretched scum!"

After that, Drew was never seen again. Cutting her hair and giving herself a completely new name, Drew decided to take care of herself, renting a small apartment somewhere in the city. After getting settled in her new home, she started to cause harm to other people. She became villainous and ruthless, killing innocent people left and right. Drew made it her goal to rid the world of 'scum', commiting various crimes that caused the deaths of many people in the process. She continued this for over seven years, becoming a renown criminal throughout the city.

At the age of twenty-seven, Drew was about to commit her biggest mass murder yet: destroying a tall glass office building just around the corner.

It was raining heavily that day. Even so, Drew continued in with the operation. Standing on top of a smaller building, Drew aimed over a thousand swords at each of the floors, shooting them towards it. Before she could send more out, Drew was disrupted by a shock of lightning, making her jump back. It was one of those superheroes she had heard so much about. Drew retreated away from the lightning-controlling man, set on finishing what she had started.

Soon enough, the entire road was closed off, and the remaining workers had been evacuated from the building. Drew ran into here, checking if any people were left. She was then confronted by Electrik, who tried to persuade her to stop. Ignoring him completely, Drew battled with him, throwing swords as he shot at her with lightning. Eventually, the two grew tired, now outside of the building and fighting on the closed off road. Enraged, Drew attacked him with a thousand swords, destroying the building's first five floors. The man then tried to convince her again, hitting at her with all his might. Even as she retaliated back, the man continued to persist, telling her that what she was doing was wrong. He said that killing people isn't the way to make the world a better place, but instead protecting people in hopes of creating a safer environment. Exhausted, the woman dropped to her knees, breathing heavily. She then thought for a moment. Was what he said really true? Had she been wrong all this time? All these questions made her think. Then, she came to a conclusion. She had been wrong all this time. Even though she wanted to make the world a better place, she was just doing it the wrong way. Drew recalled the amount of people she had killed, sobbing with regret as she reviewed her past crimes. She said that all she wanted was to rid the world of scum… but following that she said she was scum herself.

"All I wanted was to live in a better place… So I eliminated the evil to make room for the good. I thought I was saving the world… but I was really just saving myself. Saving myself from all the stress and the betrayal and the loneliness. I've killed so many people… How can I possibly be forgiven? I'm not the world's saviour. I'm just as bad as all those other people!"

The man approached her, holding out his hand. He said, "Yes, what you have done was cruel… but not all of it is your fault. Your head became shrouded in darkness and evil so that you had no idea what crimes you were committing. You thought you were doing something bad when in reality you were doing something incredibly evil. But, there's always room for good as well. You just have to know where to look."

Hesitant for a moment, Drew stared up at him. Still crying, Drew took his hand, pulling herself up. It was then when the building started to crumble. The entire structure started to fall on top of them, the glass beginning to break. Running towards it, Drew held her hands out, summoning the most swords she had ever created during her lifetime. Smiling, she said to the man,

"You should probably close your eyes for this one. The glass might get in your eyes."

As the clouds began to separate, Drew sent her countless amount of swords flying, shattering the glass into the tiniest pieces she could. The microscopic pieces of glasses shone in the sunlight, falling around Drew like glitter. As Elektrik watched from a safe distance, Drew kept her eyes closed, not wanting to get any glass in her eyes. Once the shining glass had fallen, she went up to Elektrik and asked him something.

"You said there's also room for good as well, and you just need to know where to look. So, Mr. Elektrik… is there any more space in this so called superhero team of yours?"

Bio: During normal business hours, Shae Munroe entertains many on stage as a singer, belting out tune after tune with the spotlight on her. Unknown to anyone else, Shae dons the blue and white ensemble of Crystalline.

Shae had an average life. Her family was close to her, she did ok in school, and she had a good group of friends to surround herself with. On a regular airplane flight a technical malfunction destroyed the controls and the plane barreled to Earth below, crashing and causing a large amount of damage. Many people were dead, but few survived. Shae was among them, but her life was hanging in the balance.

Memories were a blur when she woke up months later. She didn't remember anything after the crash, but she woke up in a bed not inside the hospital. Her family was there and continued as if she didn't just wake up. Shae questioned her parents about what happened, but her parents relayed that she was in the hospital for only a week before she was released. Yet, months passed by when Shae regained consciousness.

Shae began to notice her weird abilities shortly after she awoke. It started small, with her reading people's minds. At first, she couldn't control it and the constant voices bothered her and concerned her parents. However, she began to handle it. The crystal powers showed themselves later when she found herself at gunpoint after her waitress job. The man took her money and decided to shoot her anyway. In a desperate attempt to protect herself, a crystal formed on her body and the bullet ricocheted off. The man, dumbfounded, stumbled back and ran away calling her a "freak".

Shae didn't know how she got her new abilities, but she knew it had to be in the mysterious months after the plane crash.

Once she was old enough, The Big Five came knocking on her door and offered to teach her more and help her with her abilities. She didn't know what to do at first, the fact she didn't know how she got her powers worried her to no end. Was it a blessing or a curse? Soul searching led her to accept the heroes' offer and she traveled to New Horn City. Told she had to maintain an alias, she went about her life in the city as a singer.

Excited about her new possibility in life, she helps the city and fights crime along with the other heroes. Still worried about where she got her powers, she searches for clues when she can.

But the world needed heroes, she had to take the wheel.
