I'll have my CS posted in a bit here. I've been trying to find a picture I liked but havent found one yet so I'll just post what I have and tack on the picture later
Name - Brainiac #555906 Alias - Brainiac 5 Age - 21 Home World - Colu Powers/Primary Skills - Brainiac 5 has average physical abilities but an ingenious mind. He’s a master of intergalactic biology, a wiz at electrical and mechanical engineering and a prodigy among his people in a number of other subjects.
Weaknesses - Brainiac 5 has a lot of theoretical skills but not a lot of practice. His fighting skills are better than an average person but not enough to be a serious threat to anything. Appearance - Pic or description, I'll make micros if you guys want them for the stat cards… Brief Bio - Colu an had been pretty removed from the politics of the universe thanks to their high options of themselves. As far as the elders of Colu were concerned their predecessor, Brainiac, had given them enough information of the world outside their world. Brainiac 5 didn’t share these sentiments. Brainiac 5 grew up feeling the full force of the brutal conditions of life on Coulan. Where most people were beaten into the usual cold and uncaring member of their society, Brainiac 5 held onto a sense of empathy thanks to the stories he read of all the other planets that Brainiac came into contact with. This mentality put B5 at odds with nearly everyone he met.
Colu was eventually approached by the fledgling founders of the Legion of Superheroes, asking if they would like a representative on the team. Almost immediately it was decided that Brainiac 5 would be sent away to do research of his own in the world that he yearned for so strongly. B5 was thrilled with the idea and packed his things, ready to get the first hand experiences with the species he only ever read about as a child. Notes - He enjoys using sayings but butchers the wording most of the time.
Colu is a techno-organic planet basically serving as a shared cybernetic body of the oldest of Colulans. Throughout their life Coulans steadily augment themselves in help them in their field of expertise until eventually they join up with the planet’s shared conciseness in order to begin their second stage of ‘life’. In this second stage they continue their work on a more theoretical scale while those with functioning bodies work on the more practical research. Not everyone sees this progression as ideal and you often get outcasts that live out their studies and choose to die naturally or, in a darker case, you get the Blight; a sect of ancient Coluans who have kept their physical bodies going long after their ‘death’ and continue their own research off planet. Coluans aren’t a very morally conscious race but the Blight are especially cruel. Most outright deny the existence of the Blight, leaving them as a sort of boogeymen of the universe.
Name - Thom Kallor Alias - Starman Age - 22 Home World - Xanthu Powers/Primary Skills -
gravity manipulation:
* flight * anti-gravity push - an extension of his force field * anti-gravity force fields - this is what gives him flight and protects him and at times others from small arms fire and energy attacks * increases mass to induce gravity
Secondary Hero - Sun Boy Weaknesses - Standard humanoid weaknesses, though his personal field can deflect small arms fire and weaker energy based attacks. Powerful characters could wipe him out fairly easily unless he's exhausting all of his power.
Appearance - Pic or description, I'll make micros if you guys want them for the stat cards...
Brief Bio - Born to astronomer parents on an observation satellite orbiting the planet Xanthu, Thom lead a pretty normal life in the future. However, when his powers manifested around puberty, he developed schizophrenia that can only be medicated by the most advanced treatments twice a month. After years of trying to be a solo hero on the planet Xanthu, Thom was among the founding three Legionnaires who formed the Legion after saving the life of R.J. Brande.
Notes - Made my boy one of the founders.

Okay so what's that bring us to...? Starman, Brainiac 5, Gear, Ultra Boy, and Karate Kid? Still need another player or two to make this work! I'll have a Sun Boy CS worked up for my secondary ASAP. Gonna try and recruit a few more players from the older games...
@Weird Tales We've RP'ed together long enough... let's see what you had in mind for an OC. I just wanted to make sure we had about a handful of characters based on cannons before we got another half dozen OC's.
This RP still has a lot of potential if we can just get a couple more CS's approved. I think I may go with Stone Boy for a secondary after coming up with a look for him the other day. Basically an equivalent of Colossus, but rather than steel skin his skin turns into stone.
