Player Name:
WXer
Primary Character:
Super-Man
(Not So) Secret Identity:
Kenan Kong, announced by him to the world during his first day on the job.
Status:
Solo
Age:
28
City:
Formerly Shanghai; Now Metropolis
Day Job:
IRL Livestreamer - Kenan is equipped with various monitoring devices courtesy of the Chinese government, including a super-grade 360 degree camera. During non-threatening missions (which Kenan considers to be most of his adventures) he uploads the action to the popular streaming site DragonFruitTV. He even does live commentary and never fails to thank all of his donators!
Powers:
Kryptonian Qi - Kenan's capabilities are the result of a unique fusion between the artificial and the divine. Initially, he was born without powers but was subjected to Superman serum therapy that China's Ministry of Self-Reliance had developed by studying Clark Kent's DNA, giving Kenan a tenth of the Kryptonian's super strength and the ability to leap great heights.
Along his adventures, Kenan would meet a seemingly mild-mannered taichi instructor who worked out of a Guangzhou strip mall. Little would he know that this was the deity known as I-Ching, the embodiment of Yin and Yang on the mortal plane. His shifu's teachings would allow him to cultivate the raw potential dormant within him, as well as ultimately inheriting his position and powers as a guardian of balance.
As the new embodiment of Yin and Yang, Kenan's magical powers would include:
1. Durability
2. Super-Strength
3. Super-Hearing
4. Super-Speed
5. Super-Sight
6. Solar Radiation Absorption and Dispersion
7. Magical Breath
8. Flight
Weaknesses:
The flow of Qi is vital to Kenan's magical powerset. This can be disrupted in a number of ways, including magical tampering and emotional distress. A disctinct sequence of depowering occurs when his Qi is diminished, losing his Flight first and his Durability last.
As for the serum powerset, Kenan can go on for a month before needing to subject himself to a fixup over at Doctor Omen's lab. While this is a closely guarded secret, it is still man made and is easier to suppress through various means.
Skills:
He can definitely teach a beginner taichi class.

BRIEF Bio:
Kenan Kong was nothing like Clark Kent, yet both answered the call to be Superman. As a teenager, Kenan was a wannabe gangster who extorted his rich classmates with force. One fateful day, his antics would be interrupted by an even worse wannabe villain that wanted to mug the same person Kenan was shaking down. However, a quick sucker punch delivered by the daunted teen would knock out the costumed scoundrel. In the age of information, his act of courage would spread like wildfire and made him an overnight celebrity.
His new found fame would catch the attention of Dr. Omen, the head of the Ministry of Self-Reliance, and Kenan would be abducted from his home to be imbued with superpowers. Afterwards he was conscripted to be part of the Chinese government's attempt at their own Justice League as the Super-Man of China, one that served the interests of the Asian hegemon across the region. During his time in the organization, Kenan would develop his powers and become a capable hero. He'd even get to team up with the actual Superman and grab some Big Belly burgers after missions!
When he had heard that Clark Kent had fallen to Doomsday, Kenan had arranged for his post at Shanghai to be reassigned to Metropolis as part of a new agreement between the two global superpowers of China and the USA. With his presence in America, there will now be a new Super-Man ready to uphold truth, justice and the democratic way.
Story Arcs:
Filling in a Farmboy's Shoes - Kenan attempts to pick up where Clark Kent dropped off, interjecting himself in official League missions and foiling any classic Superman villains that might still be active. This crusade would eventually lead him to hunting Doomsday in an attempt to avenge his fallen mentor.
Justice League Internationale - The next step in the two governments' joint venture would be the creation of a Justice League that answers directly to a representative council in contrast to the current one that is largely autonomous. Will Kenan be able to find members that could rival the current Justice League? And how will the current League react to this new organization? Let's find out on the next big adventure of Super-Man!
Supporting Characters:
Filling in a Farmboy's Shoes - Doctor Omen, Lex Luthor, Doomsday
Justice League Internationale - Doctor Omen, any player character wanting to join in
Secondary Character:
Commander Atom - Military liaison and US government representative in the Justice League. An active member described to be a warhawk, Allen Adam's liquid metal exterior hosts a radioactive core that imbues the soldier with nuclear powers that are largely classified.
Additional Notes:
I-Ching can send an astral projection of himself via Kenan's chest symbol and Kenan can meditate himself to the spiritual plane where his shifu currently resides.
