well after reading both heroes' personalities, i feel not only that D'ren's personality and Dream-scape's personality would be more of a contrast when fighting each other, and harmonious when working together, but also i understand Dream-scape's personality more because i am more like her than i am like Ignis, so it would just be easier for me to write with Dream-scape than Ignis.
And I know we dont HAVE to have contrasting powers, i just thought it would be cool. and like i said, invisibility could be used in conjunction with casting illusions to great effect.
BELOW is my final draft for approval. :)
Regarding "Daren as a teen," that would be his appearance and a general idea of his behavior. I made the character before watching that show, so I'm not stealing anything. It just so happens that his appearance, accent, and attitude are very similar, at least at that age.
Name : Daren McDonnell
Alias : The Infamous (main alias), AKA The Widowmaker, The Warlord, The WorldWeaver, The Irishman (any variation of those), D'ren
Age : early thirties
Gender : Male
Allegiance : Villain
Image :
Written Description ( optional )(can be used instead of Image) : Shoulder-length black hair, facial stubble, facial scar along the side of his face, green eyes, usually wears black leather, including knuckle gloves, trench coat.
Power Set (only one power per character) : Invisibility; in addition to being able to turn invisible himself, he can make an object or person invisible by touch, but once he stops touching them, they will become visible again in under 20 seconds. If he stays invisible for more than a few minutes, he begins to lose his eyesight.
Background story (where was your character born ? How did he become a hero/villain ? How was he caught ?) :
Daren Connor McDonnell was born in North Carolina to Elisa and Liam McDonnell. Though he was only 1/4th Irish, even at a young age Daren often passed himself off as being half, or full Irish, especially if it got him a discount on alcohol. When he was a boy, he visited Ireland with his family, which included two brothers and a sister. His parents were murdered, but he never found out who did it, or gave the order. He only knew that they had been doing research on aliens, and both MI5 and the US government did not approve. His siblings split up when they were teens and he still hasn't seen them to this day. Daren as a teen.
In his early years of life, Daren never understood why people ignored him so much, despite his crazy, sociopathic antics. His sister had a speech impediment and had always called him D'ren. It once annoyed him, but now that his siblings were gone, living in other parts of the world, he took on the name and continued to live in Ireland. He figured out that he was capable of turning invisible, which usually happened on accident. D'ren discovered that when people weren't paying him any attention, despite the fact he was standing right there, he would feel invisible, and so he would slowly turn invisible. Even if someone looked at him and saw him becoming transparent, their psychology would make up something to explain it away, like maybe they imagined it or were seeing things that weren't there. Or even that D'ren had simply walked away. The human mind can be powerfully self-deceptive.
The year was 2014 and D'ren had just turned 21. He went out for his first legal drink with a few unsavory fellows he called buddies. They literally back-stabbed him in a barfight with a biker gang. As D'ren was lying on the ground, paralyzed, he tried to call for help but nobody even looked at him. So he became invisible. The only reason why he noticed was because he watched his pooling blood turn translucent around him.
After the hospital patched him up, he left and immediately got into crime. Under the guise of several aliases, he made millions from bank heists and eventually was recruited by MI5 to help them catch IRA soldiers and officers. He pretended to help, but almost crippled the British intelligence organization before joining the IRA and quickly rising through the ranks as one of their leaders, at the age of 29 in 2022. In four years, D'ren had killed thousands of civilians, earning his reputation as "The Infamous Irishman," which later became just "The Infamous."
During his time in the IRA, D'ren traveled to America often for missions or to look for his siblings. He once saw a young woman creating an illusion from her imagination, and interacting with it as if it were real. Mesmerized, D'ren spied on her and even had IRA operatives remain near her parents' house at all times.
In 2025, he was 32-years-old when he left the IRA to form a superpowered gang of villains that would take over Ireland; his ultimate goal was to rule the world, but he didn't get that far because in 2026, the Collective and The Dozen were formed. He refused to be part of either group. Instead, he and his small gang went rogue, aiming to take down both the Collective and the Dozen. Most of the battles usually ended in failure, or a draw. The Infamous only actually won one battle. During this conflict, he met Dreamscape again, though for her this was the first time.
As they fought, D'ren came to admire her even more. Whenever The Infamous went out to attack someone with his power of invisibility, the Collective sent Dreamscape, usually backed up by another hero with a more aggressive power. On their fourth encounter, D'ren killed the man who was supposed to be protecting her. His super-strength was nothing compared to the ability to become invisible. The Infamous tried to kidnap her, having become infatuated with her, but she was rescued by other heroes.
Two years later, at 35, D'ren became sick with the virus that only affected all super-powered individuals. He was near death when his sister Dinah showed up; she had a type of healing ability, but all she could do was take part of the virus, not eliminate it. So she died from the virus. D'ren discovered that he was immune to the virus so he felt really really bad about inconveniencing his now-dead sister by coming all the way out to heal him pointlessly. Hating the world even more, The Infamous went after everyone: the Collective, the Dozen, the governments, other criminals. But most powered people were being killed off by the virus, and that included his gang; plus, he spread his gang too thin and each cell was taken down by the heroes and armies of the world.
Then the aliens came. He smartly used his power to hide underground, but was captured and collared by the aliens and thrown into prison.
