Player Name:
Simple Unicycle

Primary Character:
A slightly tweaked Vic Sage as The Question

Secret Identity:
Victor Charles 'Vic' Sage (born Charles Victor Szasz)

Status:
Reservist JLU

Age:
36 (born March 15th, 1983)

City:
Hub City, occasionally venturing into Gotham and Metropolis

Day Job:
Investigative Journalist

Powers:
N/A

Skills:
I Know Kung Fu
Trained by the world's foremost martial artist, Richard Dragon, Vic is a highly skilled hand-to-hand combatant and is able to take on any foes that come his way (granted they have no [offensive] powers).
I Have No Eyes But I Can See
Vic has a keen eye for details, and is widely referred to as 'the World's Second Greatest Detective'. He also doesn't let any skepticism cloud his mind, and will treat even the most ridiculous of tales as though they were commonplace facts.
Hack The System
Vic is a talented hacker, capable of toppling almost any firewall, security measures, etc. in order to get into a database for information... Or Booster's computer to leak that embarrassing video of him playing with toy ponies.
I Will Not Compromise In This...
Nothing will stop Vic in his goals, not even (near) death in one case. It's close to impossible to break his spirit, and nothing will make him compromise his views.

Weaknesses:
Human As Can Be
Vic isn't a metahuman in any sense of the word. He's not bulletproof, he can't punch down concrete walls, and he can't leap tall buildings in a single bound. He's just a normal man trying to do what's right.
Not All There
It's pretty easy to see when you meet him that Vic isn't exactly all there. He has odd mannerisms, such as sticking beef jerky fresheners into his pockets or spouting off Zen to passerby, which leads to him being avoided and untrusted by most people.
... Not Even In The Face of Armageddon
But the downside to Vic's willpower is the fact that, even if it means the world ending, he will not compromise his views. Ever. You'd have to kill him to stop him from doing whatever he's set his mind to do.

Appearance:
Faceclaim - Damian Lewis

Vic is a tall man, standing at 6'1 with a slender build weighing in at 173 pounds. He has short and neatly cut ginger hair, piercing blue eyes, and a clean shaven face (he tried growing a beard once but the Pseudoderm wouldn't stick). His work attire consists of a suit and tie with a trenchcoat, though in his down time he has a penchant for bomber jackets and jeans.

As the Question, he wears a mask of Pseudoderm to hide his identity and appear faceless. The bonding gas used to cement the mask to his face changes his hair from red to black (he uses shampoo with special chemicals, the gas reacting with those chemicals to make the change), and some of his clothing will change color to blue as well (same deal as the hair, just with his detergent). Mostly, he wears a suit, trenchcoat, and fedora, though occasionally he wears street clothes.

Supporting Characters:





Secondary Character:
Cliff Baker as the second Animal Man - A grown up Cliff Baker trying to live up to his missing father's legacy as the second Animal Man... And searching for artifacts of the Red in Indiana Jones fashion to search for his father.

Additional Notes:
This character was created with the mindset that some events from the O'Neil run of the Question happened, mostly regarding Vic's training with Richard Dragon and his relationship with Myra and Jackie Connelly.
As in the previous games, Vic has partnered with Ted Kord (AKA Blue Beetle). Unlike in the previous games, this was a one-time thing and not a full-blown partnership.
Vic loves fruit with a passion. No one can quite tell why.
In terms of characterization, he's 50% Denny O'Neil Question, 20% JLU Question, 15% Charlie Crews (from the TV show 'Life'), 10% my own personal additions, and 5% Rorschach.

Player Name:

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.

Appearance:



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.

Archmage MC

Primary Character:
Willow

Secret Identity:
Willow

Status:
Active JLU / New Recruit

Age:
Operational Years: 2. Mental Age: mid to late 20s.

City:
Formally Tokyo, Now Metropolis.

Day Job:
N/A

Powers:
Nanobot Body: Since Willow is made solely out of nanobots, her body can shift between a solid, liquid, or gas state depending on how she manipulates her nanobots. Attacking Willow acts like attacking the state of matter she decides to be, but mostly its as if your attacking liquid metal. Since she has no centralized core, she can reconstruct parts that normally would be considered 'vital' like her head and reattach severed limbs very easily. Since her body is made out of nanobots, she can freely shapeshift, change her color, make any weapon she knows how to, and move in very weird ways. However she will still always look metallic, and can only hold a form for so long before needing to go back to he default form. The less she changes from her original form, the easier it is to hold that change. Changes Willow makes to her internal structure have an infinite duration. She can adapt new technology into herself very easily.

Reconstruction: Willow can use her nanobots to repair herself or change the form of matter. She must still use the same materials in reconstruction that she gained form deconstruction, but she can turn something like a steel beam and a circuit board into an automated turret and the like. Willow can't break down living things, but can manipulate dead organic matter.

Nanobot Cloud: Willow can turn herself into a gas-like state as a swarm of nanobots that can fly freely in the low atmosphere. She can reform to a more solid state at will, sometimes around what she is trying to reconstruct.

Robot: Since Willow is a robot, she only needs energy to function. She is immune to disease, poison, and most chemicals. This also grants her super strength and limitless endurance as long as she still has energy. And of course she can interface with lots of different technology. She can break down dead biomass and other select components to regain energy in addition to normal charging methods.

Advanced AI: Willow's AI is incredibly advanced and constantly evolving, making her extremely difficult to hack. She is also quite intelligent, but this also makes her very quirky. This quirkiness helps her interact with non robots fairly well, but also makes her come off as a prankster sometimes.

Weaknesses:
Sonic based weaponry disrupts nanobot communications, often turning Willow into a puddle.
EMP causes system shutdown and repair.
Extreme Heat can incinerate nanobots.
Fairly easy to talk down or convince.

Skills:
She spends way too much time browsing the internet considering she has a connection to it at will. This makes her able to look up things very quickly if she can establish a connection. An Engineer of sorts, Willow is very good with technology in general, can repair things very easily, and create things she has the specs for assuming she has the materials. And she can read, write, and speak multiple languages, although with varying success due to her translation software being earth based.

Appearance:


BRIEF Bio:
Willow was a secret alien prototype that was meant to be a new line of battle robots. This both succeeded and failed. While the scientists involved were successful in creating her, it came at a cost of the lab being destroyed and the data on Willow's creation being lost. This was partly due to the means that Willow was made, but mostly due to Willow herself. Using the remains of the lab she had destroyed, Willow shot herself off the station she had been created on to regions unknown, landing on earth a few months later. Her violent tendencies subsided upon reaching Earth and basking in its culture and people. Of course landing on the outskirts of Tokyo probably helped that along quite a bit, especially since she blended in very well with the culture due to her look.

She spent a good while learning Earth customs, language, and technology as well as learning about herself and what she could do with her new life away from whoever created her. If she was going to do things, it was because she wanted to, not because some thing 'told' her to do it. In fact, she swore she'd destroy whoever created her, just out of principle. After all, she was supposed to be a weapon, and she was pretty sure she wouldn't ever get the choice not to be one if she were ever 'reclaimed'.

She spent most of her time in Tokyo, learning the various Earth languages before deciding what she wanted to do. Hearing tales of a group of heroes that did their best to keep the peace from villains and the like, Willow made her way to Metropolis. A city that was usually at the center of most villain attacks. (Although not as high as some other cities as Willow would learn later) While Tokyo had its fair share of attacks, they weren't nearly as frequent or as dangerous at those in America from what she could gather. Add in that the Justice League was stationed mostly in America, and it wasn't that hard of a decision. Plus, Tokyo could help itself for the most part, the USA? Not as much.

Story Arcs:
I'm Not Human, But I'm Still a Lady!: Willow deals with prejudice due to being a robot and trying to date people, and has to resolve these issues. Of course others are also interested in her, but for less than noble reasons.

A Mysterious Fog: Willow reads a report about a town in Europe where people go missing in a dense fog and decides to take a team to investigate.

Reclaim the Prototype!: Due to not having any idea of how to recreate the prototype robot they had lost, Willow's 'creators' invade Earth looking for her to replicate her in order to conquer the galaxy.

Supporting Characters:

I'm Not Human, But I'm Still a Lady!: Lex Luthor, Additional JLU member or whoever wants to join

A Mysterious Fog: Scarecrow, Phobia, Cult, Any players who want to join

Reclaim the Prototype!: Alien Species, JLU cast, any players who want to join.

Secondary Character:
Red Tornado: A wind elemental trapped in a robot body who was made by a super villain, but rebeled. He can create and manipulate wind, often forming it into a tornado. He spends most of his time with his family or helping members of the JLU.

Additional Notes:
Willow is fairly new to the Justice League, and only has been around for a few months at best. She is very flirty due to her quirky AI and tendency to be on the internet. She is always evolving, and should she find tech she finds very interesting, will attempt to assimilate that tech ASAP.

Player Name:
Dblade26

Primary Character:
Blue Beetle
Secret Identity:

Theodore Edward Stephen Kord

Status:
Reservist JLU

Age:
Around twenty-seven (27)

City:
Hub City

Day Job:
Ted would consider himself a scientist and inventor first and foremost, but he's also the CEO of the highly successful Kord Omniversal Research and Design company and funds a number of side projects at any given time, some of which even manage to make money.

Powers:
Ted has no superhuman powers whatsoever. In terms of human ability, he's generally incredibly fit and has the physicals of an Olympic level athlete, though he's been known to let his conditioning slip. He's also got an inherently brilliant intellect.

Weaknesses:
Ted can be killed just as easily as any other human being. Maybe easier, given his weakness for junk food and poorly thought out pranks along with a heart condition he doesn't yet know about.

Skills:
The most notable thing about Ted, when he actually bothers to remember it, is his genius level intellect. He's an expert in numerous scientific fields and a few non-scientific ones most of which sound very impressive on paper, and is personally responsible for a number of breakthroughs behind some of KORD Inc's most important inventions. He has particular interests in the study and reverse engineering of alien technology, solar technologies and more generally any field that might help provide everyday people with easy access to futuristic technology. More importantly Ted's designed and built all of his own crimefighting tech including his usually non-lethal multi-setting firearm: the B.B. Gun, along with his flying, solar-powered high tech multi-purpose vehicle, the Bug.

On the more physical side of things, Ted's an extraordinary gymnast and acrobat, naturally ambidextrous and skilled in judo, boxing and karate all of which he combines together into a unusual mixed fighting style. He's also got some skill in stealth and infiltration and is generally a very experienced adventurer between his teenage trials with Dan Garrett and his modern career as a superhero.

Appearance:



BRIEF Bio:
Things always tended to come too easily for Ted Kord. He was naturally smart, naturally athletically talented, born to rich parents and had access to the sort of cutting edge technology that meant he always had all the best toys. As a result, he spent a lot of his life battling boredom as much as super-villains. At nine he was using miniature drones of his own design to prank his father's scientists. At twelve he tried to hack into the Department of Defense's computer network. At sixteen he was already in college and fighting off tomb raiders with his archaeology professor as an elective. By twenty he'd become an extremely young and often goofy figurehead for one of the largest research and development companies in the United States. By twenty-one, he was heading their Applied Sciences division himself and scheming to put solar energy and KORD hover tech in every home.

His ambitions changed when Hub City, his hometown, nearly suffered complete societal collapse following a massive tornado and resultant citywide, days-long riots. In the chaos that followed, Ted was unable to stand by and found himself drawn towards using his inventions and talents not just to rebuild his city, but to directly fight against the lawlessness that was rocking Hub to the core. Ted re-purposed a prototype hazardous environment exploration vehicle and an experimental field research suit into the beginnings of a crime-fighting arsenal. Taking on an even more fantastical, super-science inspired alter-ego he worked to stop the crime-wave destroying Hub as The Blue Beetle while simultaneously pouring money and tech into repairing the city itself as CEO of KORD Industries. He never intended to join the Justice League and work in the Superhero Bigtime, but is definitely excited by the life he now leads.

Carapax's Computerized Chaos!-Conrad Carapax The Invincible Man, Additional JLU Member.

Return of the Reach!-Black Beetle, The Reach, JLU Cast.

Secondary Character:
Plastic Man!-A scrawny sixteen-year-old version of Plas who grew up a pickpocket and a con artist after being orphaned when he was eight or so, I'm thinking he'll be placed with the Titans as a sort of work-rehabilitation program and chance at reformation.

Additional Notes:
In general, I'm going for a Ted Kord who's goofy and silly but still a genius inventor who's capable of being competent when it counts. When he's not in costume I'm planning on making Ted's public persona almost like a more jokey Elon Musk, a guy who uses personal charm and silly ideas and publicity stunts to promote his company while advocating futurism and a higher tech standard of living. Of course, he's just as silly and jokey when there's nothing to be gained, it's just who he is either way.

Primary Character:
Booster Gold

Secret Identity:
Michael Jon Carter

Status:
Solo/JLU Reserve

Age:
Born December 29th, 2442- but he's around 28.

City:
Metropolis, though he monitors the timestream from a metaphysical dimension known as "Vanishing Point"- a self-contained space station situated in the last nanosecond before entropy consumes the universe.

Day Job:
Michael Jon Carter works as a PR agent for other superheroes and a liaison between charities and heroes. Booster Gold, however, operates as a freelance timecop, protecting the integrity of the timestream from both time-terrorists and time-terrors.

Powers:
Legion Flight Ring- Engraved with the signature "L" of the Legion of Super-Heroes, this ring enables its wearer the ability to fly in both atmospheric environments and outer space.
The Suit- The suit is comfy and easy to wear. The suit itself is very durable, able to withstand bullets without losing its integrity (although being shot hurts).
--Wristblasters- The suit is able to fire powerful energy blasts, via blasters in the costume's gauntlets. At their highest setting, these blasts are capable of plowing through two solid feet of concrete. Booster usually turns them down to conserve energy though.
--Force Field Belt- This belt generates a forcefield strong enough to withstand a nuclear blast- but it has limited power.
--Super Strength- The microcircuitry woven into the mesh affords Booster a high measure of super-strength, enough to easily shift twenty tons- and a great deal more if he exerts himself. However, Booster must take into account the fact that attempting to lift things that heavy often causes them to fall apart under their own weight.
--Time Travel Circuitry- While wearing the suit, Booster Gold can travel forward or backward to any point in history- and jump between parallel timelines as well. It can traverse chronological anomalies without issue.
Skeets- A reprogrammed security robot and personal assistant.

Weaknesses:
Aside from the suit, Booster's a regular guy- a guy with a college footballer's physique and future genetics, but still a regular guy.

Skills:
Business Management- Booster WAS a business major for his three years of college.
History- Being a time traveler, Booster knows all about history- even events that seem inconsequential at the time can have effects that echo throughout the epochs.
Athletics- He's actually extremely athletic, and while he doesn't eat as well as he should, he spends more than enough time in the gym to stay in top shape.
Gridiron Football- Booster actually got into college on a football scholarship. Surprisingly, this actually gives him some hand-to-hand combat training after rule changes in 2337 made football a full-contact sport.
Gymnastics-

BRIEF Bio:
Michael Jon Carter and his sister Michelle Carter were born as twins to a loving mother and an irresponsible father in Gotham City in the 25th Century. On their 4th birthday, their father left the household to pursue his true love, gambling. Michael would attend college on a football scholarship, hoping that he would make it into the big leagues, when his mother came down with a debilitating disease that required a treatment that his family could not afford. Turning to the same vice as his father, Michael made bets on his own games in order to earn enough money for the treatment. After his mother was cured, Michael was arrested and put in jail for gambling, instantly breaking his mother's heart. After he was set free from jail, Michael decided get a job as a security officer for the Metropolis Space Museum to support himself. There, he saw images of superheroes from the 21st Century that were legends in his time. Deciding to do something worthwhile with his life and become a superhero himself, Michael stole some artifacts from the museum as well as the security robot Skeets and used Rip Hunter's time machine to travel back to the 21st Century. It was there that he made his public debut, saving the life of the President of the United States from the Chiller as the new superhero Goldstar. Nervous, Michael misspoke on live television and got stuck with the name Booster Gold instead.

From there, it was a bit of a whirlwind- he used his knowledge of the future to make a fortune and establish the Michael Jon Carter people of the 21st century are familiar with. He set himself up as Booster Gold's publicity agent, dealing with sponsorships and charities who wanted to partner with the highly public hero. He'd go on to extend this service to other heroes as well, forming a bridge between various charitable organizations and the superhuman community.

Primary Character:
Kid Solomon

Secret Identity:
Liam McNeil

Status:
Titans (Eventually the JLU)


Age:
17 years old

City:
He is based in Gotham for now.

Day Job:
Running the streets of Gotham trying to do good is his night job. He's currently a student at Gotham Academy and occasionally looking in on the Gamily business of importing and exporting.

Powers:

• Magic: He needs to use spells to cast his magic but his magics are powerful. Due to his half homo-magi blood, he is quite the powerful sorcerer or some day he will be. Today he is just a decent sorcerer. He usually uses his spell book as a focus but in a bind, he can use his blood as a focus. His spells are varied so long as he can pay the required cost. Usually, animal blood will do.
• The Seal of Solomon (Summoning): Liam doesn't see calling outsider beings or demons to help him to do as a bad thing. A creature that can help him is a good thing. The Seal of Solomon allows him to do this. His Magic summons the creature from whichever place it came from and the Seal binds the creature to his service. Liam can only keep on creature at a time for now.
• Blood Magic : He is skilled at the use of blood magic. He can do more "dark" magics with his blood spells. Using this magic, he can place curses or weaken his enemies if he has time to set up.

Weaknesses:
"All Magic Comes with a Price, Dearie": His spells are powerful but they require an offering of something equal in value. If he wants to raise someone from the dead, he must sacrifice someone else's life for the person. The stronger the spell, the more costly the price. If the price is too high, the spell can take a bit of his life.

"One Cannot Rush True Magic": Liam needs time to set up his spells and if his magic is interrupted then it does not work or worse. The spell might backfire or cause something to happen. With more practice he could control this but for now it is a large issue.

Skills:
Liam can read and write in: Latin, Greek, Aramaic, and Hebrew. Despite his magic, he is quite good with his fists. Not going to punch out a powerful person but he would be good against regular thugs. His tutors thought it important that he can fight without his magic.

Appearance:



Liam will eventually need a better outfit but for now Spandex is not his thing. The Mask manages to hide his appearance unless he takes it off willingly.Even people who know him intimately cannot see through the illusion even if they see his tattoos.

BRIEF Bio:

Liam believes that it is something to do with Black Magic but this is something he can’t do on his own. Liam's ex boyfriend was one of the victims and it felt personal. He needs all the help he can get and so he would swallow his pride and ask for help. (Team Up)

The Alignment: "When the stars were right, They could plunge from world to world through the sky; but when the stars were wrong, They could not live." : Someone is attempting to summon The Nameless One from the Source Wall. Summoning an Old God to Earth is never a good thing. It will take more than a single young Sorcerer to stop them. (Team Up)

BRIEF Bio:

Jessica Jones grew up in the Mississippi River Delta, being the odd girl amongst the many other bayou dwelling communities to whom the river was their way of life. Her mother, Jessy, had died in childbirth due to complications, and had been raised by her mother' parents.

That was part of what had been told to the neighbours - in truth, Jessica had been the daughter of Killer Croc aka Waylon Jones; whom had been in the area and had during a heated moment, attacked her mother. During a time, when the young female had been engaged with her own boyfriend.

The parents of her mother, had driven off Killer Croc - whom they assumed had been a large crocodile, whom had killed Jessy' boyfriend and mauled her mother badly. Her mother had been impregnated with her - yet due to the genetic trait, passed onto Jessica, that being heavy atavism - it made her have complications and died in childbirth.

While Jessica, was considered almost otherwordly in appearance, equal to her father - she had been lucky. Namely her grandparents had been more kind and generous - than his childhood, considering Jessica - named after her mother, Jessy, to be their flesh-and-blood. No matter how she looked or appeared to be. Despite her atavism - Jessica remained a healthy girl. Over the years as she grew, her paternal' side metahuman powers started to manifest.

While her education wasn't the best one could offer - her grandparents were the more religious, and off-grid people - she was mostly home-schooled, taught how to read and write and the basics of life. What was more important, they taught her to be a good person in-general - to turn the other cheek, no matter what people said about her and always remember, that they cared about her.

Eventually enough, after being buzzed off numerous other careers opportunities - Jessica had decided to try her luck with the military, namely the US Navy - as water was almost second-nature to her. That proved to be rather quick, as she managed to pass the Physicals rather quickly and was immediately delegated forward to other Armed Forces Branches that woulds suit her unique skills better.

Primary Character:
Slipstream

Secret Identity:
Xane Swift

Status:
Solo currently

Age:
22

City:
Gotham

Day Job:
Gas Station

Powers:
Prototype Slipstream Suit: Xane’s suit harness an unseen force of kinetic energy in order to propel the wearer at dazzling speeds. The full capabilities of the suit have yet to be seen as the human mind can’t interpret and react fast enough to use the suit to it’s full potential. The suit also provides a frictionless field around the wearer to protect against the nature troubles of traveling at high speeds along with some general body protection in case of high-speed crashes.

Weaknesses:
Bullets and Knives and Bears, Oh My!: Under the moderate armour of the suit, Xane is still just as vulnerable as the next guy and suffers from motion sickness on the regular due to the high speeds his body endures. His mind is also a weakness as he has to really pan his movements in the suit carefully or risk running straight into a wall at mach 2.
Undisciplined: Xane doesn’t have a very long attention span and as such, learning to properly fight hasn’t come easy to him. He relies too much on his suit to get through a fight at the moment.

Skills:
Adaptive: Xane isn’t the smartest guy but that means he rarely gets stuck trying to make a plan work. His method of constant trial and error allows him to be a little less predictable that a more methodical combatant.
Mental Math: With all that speed and no way to accurately comprehend it, Xane has gotten pretty good at timing his speed and how far he goes after how long. Before a dash he’ll normally do a quick calculation about how long to run for in order to ensure he doesn’t bash into anything he doesn’t want to. While he isn’t great at the more complex aspects of math, Xane is a whiz when it comes to quick and basic calculations.

BRIEF Bio:
Xane Swift had been a deadbeat all his life, mooching off his parents and expecting everything in the world to be given to him on a silver platter. This mentality landed him in a situation of no escape where he was being cut off from his parent’s funds and getting kicked out of college for his poor attendance and grades. As things went downhill Xane was contacted by a sect of criminals known as the Reapers who offered him a way to make quick cash by going even quicker. The Reapers supplied Xane with a suit that granted him superspeed and they told him to commit a string of robberies. Xane managed to accomplish his task, narrowly avoiding capture at the hands of Batman who eventually ended up busting the Reapers and leaving Xane with a super-weapon and without a purpose.

The speedster tried to keep up the robberies to keep himself going but after about a month of close run ins with the Batman and the ever increasing amount of vigilantes in Gotham, Xane decided to lie low and get a real job while his reputation died down. Working in the glamorous field of gas station attendee was boring work but Xane would rather be stuck behind a counter than behind bars any day of the week. This were going alright until Xane was held up at gunpoint and robbed while running the store. Not one to take a mugging lying down, Xane suited up that night and broke the nose of the crook and a few of his friends as they were proceeding to jump a family. Naturally Xane pocketed the recovered gas money but word from that family began to spread and the bank robbing speedster from a month ago was now turning over a new leaf.

Originally Xane paid the rumours no mind but the positive praise from some began to work at his ego and soon Xane was going out patrolling the streets and stopping all manner of petty crimes, all the while narrowly avoiding any of the other vigilantes of the city. Xane’s not sure if the hero thing will stick but the thrill of being a good guy feels much better than the thrill of a ten second heist.

Get Ahead with V9!: Xane’s stint of being uniquely fast has come to an abrupt end as a new drug hits the streets of Gotham. Velocity-9 is doing for every thug in Gotham what the Slipstream suit did for Xane. Now Xane has to make a made dash to get the drug off the street by making his way straight to the top before the drug goes into mass production. Can Xane figure out who’s producing the drug? More importantly, is he fast enough to stop them? Find out in... Get Ahead with V9! (Team-up)

Gotham’s Flash Freeze: Mr.Freeze is back in action after a brief stint of staying under the bat’s radar. Now Freeze and his goons are on the offensive, taking over pockets of Gotham’s industrial district and slowly turning the city into a winter wasteland. Not wanting to see his home turn into an iceberg, Xane covers up and treks into the heart of the storm in an attempt to liberate Gotham from a second ice age. Join Slipstream in… Gotham’s Flash Freeze(Team Up)

Age:
19

City:
Star City

Day Job:
Socialite
Heir to Queen Industries
Heir to the Queen Fortune

---

Powers:
Enhanced Vision:
The "cones" and "rods" in Thea's eyes (the specialized cells responsible for normal human vision) are different. While a normal human has up to 150 million rod cells in their retinas, Thea has closer to 400 million, vastly increasing her visual acuity (clarity of vision). As for her cones, she has fewer than the average human causing her to see mostly in black and white, thus increasing visual contrast (which, according to her, allows her to better see "what's real and what's not", such as seeing through a two way mirror). Thea also has enhanced muscles around her eyes increasing her ability for orb distortion which changes focal length.

Weaknesses:
"If you prick us, do we not bleed?"
Though her body is in unbelievable shape compared to the average girl her age, and add the fact that she is exceptionally skilled, Thea is still very much human. Therefore she is every bit and very much vulnerable to the damage caused by punches, kicks, bites, pinches, knives, bullets, bats, great falls, being hit by vehicles, etc. as the next person.
Thea has yet to have any training nor does she have any resistance to magic or psychic attacks.

---

Skills:
Archery:
Thea is one of the world's greatest archers.
As a young child Thea idolized her hero Robin Hood and was said to be a natural archer, frequently practicing with her bow and arrows. She was mildly traumatized the first time she accidentally killed an animal.

Marksmanship
With her training, natural talent, and enhanced vision Thea virtually never misses with her bow.
She is also quite the fair shot when throwing weapons such as darts, knifes and fighting sticks.

Peak Human Condition:(for her age!)
Thea is in top condition after having to survive on her own for years.

Acrobatics:
Thea is an accomplished and skilled acrobat, able to dodge bullets (single shots) and perform great feats.

Deception:
Thea is a damn good fibber.

Stealth
She learned how to move silently and how to hide herself while on the island.

Hand-to-Hand Combat/Martial Arts:
Thea has been trained in a number of different fighting styles.
Eskrima, a Filipino martial art that emphasizes weapon based fighting. In Thea's case the emphasis was on fighting sticks.
Hapkido, a Korean discipline and a form of self-defense that employs joint locks, grappling, and throwing techniques similar to those of other martial arts, as well as kicks, punches, and other striking attacks.
Wing Chun is a traditional Southern Chinese Kung fu specializing in close range combat.

Survival:
Being on an island for 5 years, Thea learned how to survive in the wilderness.

Indomitable Will:
Due to the trials suffered upon the island, Thea has tremendous willpower.

Hunting:
Her ability to hunt comes from years of training, patience and survival. Thea is proficient enough in hunting to pursue a cougar without it ever noticing.

Gadgetry:
Thea is more than proficient enough to design and make her own trick arrows.

Cooking:
You should try her chili...

BRIEF Bio:
A spoiled brat of a child, Thea Queen accompanies her father, Robert, for a cruise on the family yacht. The ship was sabotaged in the Pacific ocean, forcing Thea, Robert, and a third crewman to escape in a life raft. Only having enough food and water for one person, Robert killed the third man and told Thea that he had failed their city and that Thea needed to survive and right his wrongs. Robert then committed suicide, shooting himself in the head in front of his daughter. Thea's raft ended up on the island of Lian Yu, nicknamed Starfish Island by some because of its shape.

For five years Thea survived on the island, from the age of 13 to 18 years old. There a few scars, a handful which are quite ugly, on her body showing that life on the island was far from easy. Thea has yet to really share her experience on the island with anyone. She has yet to tell anybody that she wasn't always alone on Lian Yu. She hasn't told anybody that the scars on her body are from not only fighting for survival, but received through physical torture.

It wasn't long after returning home that Thea set on her sights on fulfilling the promise made to her father, to right the wrongs of Robert Queen... to save their city. She used her family's money and company to acquire much of her equipment, and even made her base of operations in the cellar of an abandoned warehouse once owned by Queen Industries. For a long while Thea was known as 'the Hood' by the citizens of Star City. She was a mysterious vigilante dress in green and black leather with a hood to hide her identity whom used a composite bow and arrows instead of guns to take down the criminal element from to lowest thug to the highest and richest elitist. The Hood gave little mercy to those whom broke the law and terrorized the city. The Hood often clashed with the Star City Police Department.

Over the last few months, Thea had a bit of an epiphany.
Star City doesn't need a dark vigilante who stalks the shadows to strike fear into everyone's heart. This wasn't Gotham.

Star City needed a hero to inspire hope. Thus, the Red Arrow was born.

Secondary Character:
May have an idea for re-imagining (remaking?) a Green Lantern Corp member into a different hero...

Additional Notes:
This version of the character is meant to take the place of Oliver Queen / Green Arrow.

On the Green Arrow (New Earth) DC Wiki page, it is suggested in the Trivia section that Oliver could possibly be a metahuman. So that gave me the idea to give this version of Thea enhanced vision.

Player Name:
Sir Lurksalot

Primary Character:
Champion... eventually.

Secret Identity:
Duncan MacAodhan

Status:
Solo, though that'll probably change with time

Age:
22

City:
Halifax, Nova Scotia

Day Job:
Diesel Mechanic at a local shipyard

Powers:
Immense Physical Prowess- Duncan is, for lack of a better way of putting it, really goddamn strong... and fast... and pretty tough to boot; able to match the physical feats of even Kryptonians under a yellow sun, though he lacks all the more fancy bits such as flight, crazy eye-lasers and the tactile telekinesis necessary to lift massive objects and not have them shatter under their own weight.

On paper, this makes him an absolute nightmare of an opponent to square off against. In practice, well...

As a guy who spends almost every hour of every day trying his damnedest to hide his abilities, he's never really tested what he can actually do with them. As such, he has no real idea what he's capable of, what his limits are or if he even has any, only the knowledge that if he does throw hands at the average person for whatever reason, they are most definitely going to die in the most gruesomely spectacular explosion of gore imaginable... and that knowledge alone is enough to make him stuff his hands in his pockets and seclude himself in a corner for most social gatherings.

Weaknesses:
While Duncan possesses Kryptonian levels of physical ability, he is still very much human; He can't fly, he still needs to breathe, possesses no form of crazy eye-lasers or freezing breath and can't survive solely off sunlight. As such, though his physiology makes him all but invulnerable to physical attacks, he is still vulnerable to poison, high voltage, or a good old fashioned drowning (or being strangled or thrown into space, depending on the opponent).

There's also the matter of just how much restraint Duncan has to exercise in his daily life. It takes an awful lot of control and effort to throw a punch effectively when you know that if you put just a teensy bit too much 'oomph!' into it, you will undoubtedly turn the other guy into scattered bits of hamburger meat. Add to that, his increasingly worrying dependence on alcohol, a pack-a-day habit, no small amount of unstated, harshly surpressed self-loathing and the fact that he hasn't had to really exercise or physically exert himself in any way since he was a teenager and we find ourselves with the unusual paradox of a man who could arm-wrestle with god-like aliens being literally as out of shape and weak as he is capable of being.

...And that's not even getting into the fact that, as previously stated, he has no idea what the fuck he's doing.

Skills:
Savvy Mechanic- As a guy who grew up tinkering with cars, machines and the occasional boat in his Grandpa's shop, Duncan got... well, actually pretty damned good at it. If it's big, heavy and full of a bunch of moving bits, Duncan can probably figure out how it works and how to keep it doing so.

Handyman- Though Duncan can't really claim to be anything like a certified carpenter or plumber, he is pretty adept at fixing random things around the house.

Surprisingly Good Cook- May very well be his actual superpower.

Pure Stubbornness- He is his granddaddy's boy, after all...

Appearance:
To read what Duncan is physically capable of, you might picture some sort of hulking mountain of a man with bulging muscles and a jawline chiseled from granite... to actually meet the man however, you'd be disappointed and maybe a little confused- MacAodhan is not a large man. In fact, compared to what immediately comes to mind when you think 'Superhuman', he is downright tiny, standing at only 5'6" on a good day and lacking the bulging, musclebound body of proper superheroes in favour of a lean, though dense and chiseled physique closer to that of a Olympic runner, if anything, though his broad shoulders and some stubborn stains of grease on his hands make a fairly decent indicator of his blue-collar background, to which he also owes the habit of shaving his brown hair into a buzzcut, to cut deal with the heat in his workplace.

Lacking much in the way of an actual superhero costume (again, actively trying not to be a Superhero), when he does feel the need to nut up and do something somewhat heroic, Duncan simply throws on his workboots, gloves, jeans and a denim jacket over either some plain wifebeater or t-shirt, topping it all off by tying a simple black rag over his face, leaving only his hazel eyes and a bit of skin exposed and putting on an old ballcap he got from some local minor-league sports team or another.

BRIEF Bio:
Despite what one might might assume when encountering literally anyone even remotely associated with superpowers and tights, Duncan's tale is... rather mundane. Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia with a Fisherman for a father and a mother who ran a local diner, the boy in question up grew extraordinarily normally; playing videogames, staying at his grandparents' when his mom was busy at the shop and his dad was out at sea and helping his granddad out in the garage fixing cars and the occasional boat.

And then one day when he was fifteen, he got hit by a truck.

After about a good ten seconds of screaming and another thirty spent wondering why he wasn't dead, he extricated himself from the big-rig's engine-block that had wrapped around both him and the streetlight he'd been leaning against only to find that not only was he not dead, he was perfectly intact. All things considered, that's some pretty heavy shit to lay on a fifteen year old. So it's not all that surprising that when the (very) drunk trucker half staggered, half fell out of his truck at the sight of him, and sirens began echoing in the distance, the kid ran the hell out of there. A few days of trial, error and a lot of Wikipedia later, and the boy had a pretty good idea what all that was about: He was a Metahuman, a one-in-a-million carrier of a superhuman gene that may or may not activate under extreme stress (Like, for instance, getting hit by a truck while waiting for the bus). Frankly, it sounded a lot like a bunch of pseudo-science crap you'd find in an old comic book, but lacking any other explanation for his sudden... talents... it was one he'd have to accept.

Along with the many quietly uncomfortable, life-changing implications that went with it.

Now, usually, when someone finds out they've got crazy superpowers, things usually go in one of two predictable ways; one, they become a spandex-clad boy-scout that dedicates every moment of every day to having the brightest smile, rescuing cats from trees and giving lectures about the dangers of "The Reefer" and sex before marriage or two; going full ham, burning orphanages, kicking puppies and generally being real goddamn edgy just for the sake of it. But to his credit, when the young lad began to realize that he could easily snap a human being like a twig if he didn't exercise absolute restraint at all times, he quickly chose the rarely considered, oft-forgotten third option.

"Yeah... No. Fuck this."

And so, despite the call to adventure literally screaming directly into his ears, Duncan tried his best to carry on as normally as he could- getting average grades, shoveling his grandparents' driveway in the wintertime, wearily trying and failing several times to find a way to have a meaningful relationship despite his 'gifts' and working through his apprenticeship as a diesel mechanic at the local shipyard after highschool. Even while the distance and rigid self-control his situation necessitated made him a pariah and the subject of scorn and open mockery from a rapidly shrinking circle of friends, something he would never admit would lead him quite heavily to the drink when he was alone with his thoughts.

To his credit though, his dogged determination not to be a Caped Crusader seems to be working; he has a pretty decent job, making Journeyman wages, his uncle set him up with a pretty decent place in a decommissioned lighthouse just outside of town and he still gets to hang out with his (very Gaelic) grandpa after work most days, tinkering in his garage, watching the game or just sitting around trading the kind of wit that makes his (very Acadian, very Catholic) grandma stifle a laugh and pretend to be offended. Often strategically, so as to drown out his dad's groaning something along the lines of "Oh God, there's two of them..." and his mum's (un)subtle attempts to pry about when exactly he's gonna meet a damned girl, already.

It's not perfect, and there are some days when Duncan finds himself down, jaded and perilously alone with the drink... but it is a good life, all in all. He has a roof over his head, he has satisfying work and most importantly, he has a family that loves him. What more could a guy like him really ask for?

As it turns out, destiny has a few answers to that question.

And he is not gonna like most of them.

Supporting Characters:
Malcolm MacAodhan- Duncan's grandfather, purveyor of off-side, dry witticisms and the source of everything his grandson knows. Not exactly tall, but still built like a brick shithouse, even in his old age and absolutely covered in scars from his time in the war, old Man MacAodhan is an often crude, sarcastic old codger who balances being clever in the worst possible way with an increasingly old-fashioned style of manhood made up of equal parts honesty, stubbornness and very thinly concealed compassion.

Mari MacAodhan- Duncan's grandma, an Acadian woman of Breton stock possessing an almost impossible reserve of patience, the ability to find humour in just about anything and one hell of a singing voice, even in her advanced age; having an adorably uncanny habit of quietly humming or singing to herself as she goes about doing... well, just about anything, really. Now of course, when asked why such an adorably sweet old lady has such prolific scars around her knuckles and more noticeably, a rather large one stemming from her lips half-way up her left check, she'll just laugh it off and say call them mementos from her much more "Rowdy" youth... though that really only provides more questions than answers.
