WHY WAS I NOT INFORMED ABOUT THIS!?!
Seconded!
So, needless to say, I'm interested.
Name: Michael Rothe
Alias: Wraith
Age: 28
Powers: Hyper-spectral vision: After an accident, Michael can't see in the visible spectrum, but instead sees ultraviolet, infrared, and even chemical traces and smells. However, he does have trouble
Skills: Skilled in unarmed combat and and in use of nightstick/tonfa, although he is by no means on par with a martial artist. He makes up for this with dirty tricks, such as smoke bombs and pepper spray. Also skilled in shooting, although Batman has discouraged his use of guns.
Personality: Ornery, jaded, sardonic
Equipment: Tonfa, flashlight, and maybe some high-tech body armor if Batman gave it to him.
Brief Bio: Michael Rothe was a cop in the Gotham PD. He was tough as nails, if a bit rough with suspects. He didn't take crap from anyone, including the mob, and the mob didn't like that. He refused to be bought. While guarding the crime scene at a meth lab, Michael's fellow officers turned on him, under direction from the mob. Knowing that they wouldn't be disturbed within the shut-down lab, and hoping to intimidate Michael, they threatened blind Michael with the lab chemicals. In the ensuing struggle, the chemicals got into Michael's eye. He had an adverse reaction, and began seizing and foaming at the mouth. Thinking he was dead, the gang set the meth lab on fire, and began plotting the cover-up.
When the seizure stopped, Michael thought that he was on acid, due to the psychedelic colors swimming before his vision. However, he soon realized that these colors were real, albeit not visible to the human eye. Unbeknownst to the corrupt GPD officers, the meth lab was actually a cover for experimental human enhancements. After he escaped the fire, Michael waged an increasingly violent vendetta against the mob and the corrupted GPD as the Wraith. Batman (and/or his sidekick(s)) stepped in before he killed anyone.
Notes: Due to the cover-up, Michael Rothe is legally dead.
It's kinda rough right now, so I welcome suggestions.
