Modernized this guy a bit:
_________________________________________________
Name: the Crimson Avenger
Age: 26
Alias: Lee Travis
Appearance:
Skills/Abilities: Military trained in hand to hand, marksmanship, as well as tactical thinking. The only other thing to note would be his custom pistols, which he uses to fire a variety of different types of rounds [explosive rounds, non-lethal rounds, as well as gas and smoke pellets].
Weaknesses: Under his stylish red coat, the Crimson Avenger is just as human as the next vigilante.
History: Travis served in the US Army for a short time, going through basic training and being shipped to Iraq soon after. Shortly after being stationed over seas he was injured and honorably discharged, being sent back to his hometown of Gotham. Over the last four years Travis has worked for his father's newspaper, the Gotham Globe. Originally just another worker in the printing department, after a story he wrote on Batman and his many allies was read and published by his father, Lee was offered a spot in the writing bullpen. He's only been writing for the paper now for about a year or so.
Weeks ago, a woman whom Lee had relations with named Christy Barker was a victim of gang violence. When Lee found her dying in an alley she was clutching the only thing the gang members didn't make off with, a golden lighter that belonged to her father which she gave to Lee. On the lighter there were a few words engraved reading "Qui Vindicet Ibit." It translated to “The Avenger will come." and was the inspiration for Lee donning a mostly red outfit to take down the gang responsible for her murder. In the apparent absence of the Batman, Lee decided Gotham could use every hero at it's disposal and took up the mask once more now wielding a pair of custom pistols a friend in the Army had been working on. Despite already making the headlines in his father's newspaper as "Yet Another Masked Menace" Lee continues to protect the streets of Gotham in any way he can.
His father is very much like J. Jonah Jameson from the Spiderman comics painting anyone in a mask, hero or otherwise, as a menace. Lee himself has been working to gain information on the Jokerz gang currently causing chaos in the streets.
