[OOC] DC Universe: Terror Titans

[CA]

Plot:
Prominent businessman Lex Luthor has made an announcement. He will be sponsoring a hand-picked group of what he calls "extraordinary youths" to train in the ways of his corporation. Unbeknownst to the public, however, these teenagers are extraordinary in ways other than their brains. And only Luthor knows the true reason they've been gathered.

Guidelines:
1. Your character should in some way be based on an existing DC villain. They can be a sidekick with similar abilities/equipment, an obsessive fan who copies their modus operandi, or anything you can think of, as long as it fits that initial guideline. I want this to kinda parallel the original Teen Titans.

2. Your character must be under eighteen.

3. This won't conform exactly to established DC continuity, so don't complain if something violates canon.

4. Obviously, follow forum guidelines, and if you realize you can't post regularly, let me know so I can write you out of the story.

5. Up to two characters are allowed (in fact, making a second one is ENCOURAGED if you have the time to keep up with both).

[Hillan]

Gender:

Male

Age:

16

Real name:

Ali Sanchez

Codename (optional]:

Kid Blight

Power:

Superhuman Reaction To Venom;
An alteration in his metabolism gives him a superhuman reaction to the strength enhancing super drug Venom used by the Legendary Bane. When injected with Venom his testoserone and oxygen levels skyrocket, making him tripple his mass and seemingly even grow a foot.

Skills:

Genius Level IQ;
A Nerd Through and through, Ali is a skilled biochemist despite his young age, much to do with his father's lifetime as a engineer of bio weapons. Ali managed to reverse engineer Venom and alter it for even better results on his own body. He's a straight A-Student and has a IQ off the charts. Like many other geniuses, he's socially awkward like few others. He could recognize patterns in numbers or genes without a problem, but patterns in people is far too difficult for him.

Equipment:

Booster Shots; Advanced Syringes that holds four doses of Venom each.

Smoke Bombs; Because sometimes you have to think before you hit.

Physical description:

163 CM, 54 KG. He's a fairly short, very skinny boy with a light brown complexion. His appearance shows off both his middle eastern and South American heritage. His eyes are brown and his hair is black. He wears round spectacles on his face and usually dresses in T-shirts and jeans, sometimes cargo shorts. He's got plenty of scars, notably one in his face. Two acid burns on his left hand, as well as several old bruises and cuts on his body. He wears a smart watch and carries the latest Android phone in his pocket at about all times.

When injected with Venom, he grows to an impressive 221 CM, and weighs well over 120 kilograms, his build changing drastically - certainly not as much as his idol - but still comparable to the biggest and toughest humans on the planet.

Costume:

A black jacket with a hood, goggles with built in Night vision and infrared. Army pants with combat boots all black, as well as a tank top made out of a stretchable fabric for when he uses Venom. A pouch on his side for his shots of Venom as well as a different smart watch that keeps track of how much venom he's still got in his blood, so he can maximize the amount of strength he gets out from each shot.

History:

In Progress.

[CA]

Accepted, but make sure to finish that history section.

[Ghost Queen]

Gnarl, WIP

Gender: Agender

Age: Technically 2 years old, but has 17 years of memory

Real name: John Carson, though the name has lost it's connection

Codename: Gnarl

Powers:
Built Like A Tree
Not much flesh to them anymore. Gnarl's body is made entirely of plant matter, their skin not much different from tree bark and their innards a complicated mess of roots, vines, and who knows what else. Needing little else but water, sunshine, and the occasional dead animal to keep them going. This body gives them enhanced strength, toughness, and a weakness to fire.

Roots
More like very tough vines, these roots can tunnel under dirt and stone incredibly fast and ensnare or puncture opponents fairly easily.

Cough
Gnarl's lungs have been tweaked to expel a cloud of choking spores. Mostly good for distractions but they can also add deadly toxins to the mix.

Skills:
Instinctual Knowledge of Botany and Toxology
They couldn't teach you how, but give him time and an idea and he can grow you anything

Z for the wisdom of Zehuti:

History:

Unfinished.

@Zebra Not accepted. Sorry, but she's so powerful that she makes everyone else look irrelevant.

[Ghost Queen]

I'd say a power progression would be better, these powers look more appropriate "End Game" powers.

[Ultimate Spidey]

Thinking of doing a clone created by the Brain.

Looking at cloning Madam Rouge. I don't know whole lot about her, but she was/is a member of the Brotherhood of Evil (which was led by the Brain) and has shapeshifting and plasticity/elasticity abilities. Of course, she would a much younger version of the original.

@CA

And Superboy doesnt?

[CA]

@Zebra Superboy never had all of Superman's powers.

@CA

Don't see how that relates to what I said.

@Zebra

Biggest gripe is that the full Shazam powers come with too much coverage. Why would she need a team?
For instance, Neith makes my character, who's got super strength via Venom completely obsolete, since her powers are just straight up stronger.

@Hillan

Why does superman need a team? Or Shazam himself for that matter?
I don't really see how it would make your character obsolete if he simply had more strength than her. And many super teams have had doublings of powers in the past so I don't see why that matters.

I think I'll just leave this if it's too much of an issue.

[CA]

@Zebra Shame, I was really hoping you'd make a new character or edit your existing one. But if you really want to leave, I can't stop you.
