Young Justice 2021 iCheck

[Omega Man]

The Justice League is getting older in 2021. While most of it's founding members are in their early to mid-forties, Superman himself still looks nearly the same he had a decade prior. The League had gone through several incarnations over the years. There were also splinter units like the Justice League of America and the JL United, as well as the JL Dark led by none other than John Constantine. In the year 2021 however, heroic metahumans are getting to be fewer and fewer. Most alien races that didn't appear to be human were often shunned by society, the now more alien Green Lantern from the planet Tandax was banned from Earth. The economy in the United States was still fighting a losing battle. Crime rates, especially metahuman crime, was up a record 120% from this time in 2010. Law Enforcement all began wearing more militaristic SWAT team style gear equipped with state of the art non-lethal AND lethal weaponry. Visually something resembling Robocop mixed with a little Judge Dredd just also packing riot gear. Some metahumans operating as heroes are not welcomed by all of the 2021 law enforcers. Only the League has been officially sanctioned by the President of the 'States: Clara Kendall. Young heroes have been 'sponsored' by the remaining members of the League to operate in Star City, the former home of the now deceased Green Arrow and one of the larger metropolitan cities with increased metahuman crime. Can the young heroes take back Star City from the grips of chaos and become full fledged members of the Justice League? Take note that this will take place one year after the previous game YJ2020. Returning active characters will be that much closer to League status...

This game is a bit of an alternate future storyline, which is something DC Comics is attempting with their Future's End crossover. The only similarity being that in my future Green Arrow is dead, same as in Future's End. Developments in the 2020 game also had Aquaman, Hawkgirl, and Bronze Tiger [posing as Deathstroke] all being killed as well as several of the dropout characters. If you've read this far and wanna try and get a CS up, requirements you MUST include but are not limited to...

BRIEF Bio -
Born in New Orleans Ace was an odd child. His father was a Greek God thought to not exist and his mother was a normal woman. His dad was in face Ares, the greek god of war. Sadly though, Ares was forced to leave Ace at a young age because he had other businesses to attend to. Even with this Ace was raised to think that his father died in a war and that he was a great man.

At the age of 5 everything changed, his house burned down and he and his mother where forced to live with distant relatives that they hated in Gotham. His mother still stayed strong even though she had no husband and lived with hated relativises. This all ended the day she died, of cancer when Ace was only 10.

When this happened Ace ran away from his relatives and lived on the streets for 2 weeks until he met a strange man. This man said he would teach Ace about his heritage, this man promised to teach him about his father. Ace feeling lonely and not knowing where to go accepted. Ares brought Ace to his house on the outskirts of Gotham and started telling him how his father was Ares.

Ace laughed, but for some reason, he believed him. The man talked about how how he has the powers of a Demi-God and how he is a member of the next generation of Olympians. Ace nodded, he admitted that he believed the man. The man smiled and hugged his son as he admitted he was Ares. Ace pushed him away and he almost ran out of the door, he wanted answers about why he left them alone. WHY DID YOU LEAVE US, BECAUSE OF YOU I HAD TO LIVE WITH MY ABUSIVE UNCLE AND ALCOHOLIC AUNT FOR 5 YEARS! Ares frowned and looked down explaining to him about how he had to leave, he didn't want to be exposed any more. Ace stayed with Ares, even though he was still mad. Soon after this fight between the two Ares taught Ace how to use his powers.

5 years later he sent Ace back to Gotham to become a hero. Ace fought the thieves of gotham city for 3 months until he met Cyborg. Ace saw him take down the villains with ease and this made Ace want to become a true hero. He asked Cyborg if he could be his apprentice and cyborg said yes.

^^^Already have a Shazam on board possibly. So you miiiight need to change the CS up a bit. Capt. Marvel also operated in Fawcett, he's only been in Star City the last year or so training the YJ team and Thunder. Trim your guys age down and he'd fit in better, might have to find another sponsor as well or change his backstory a tad.

Edit: is cyborg ok.

[Omega Man]

Yeah that could work. Just put him as operating somewhere other than Star City...

~KL~

[GreenGrenade]

I'm still in, I'll be working on the updated Hellfire CS later (posted this in the YJ2020 thread and in the new titanpad too). Hopefully this won't lose momentum like YJ2020.

Like Gotham

[QT]

Name - Tintoretto

Alias - Brick

Age - Nineteen

Sponsor - Martian Manhunter (J'onn J'onzz)

Personality - Short-tempered, Tough, and Impulsive. (......yet Kindhearted at times....)

Powers

- Temperature resilience: Resistant to low temperatures and the effects of freezing, although notably hindered by high temperatures.
- Durability: Dense flesh, although not invulnerable.
- Strength: Ranging from undetected levels to Super strength.
- Breathe underwater: All Sliders are capable of surviving the aquatic atmosphere under the sea. Some accomplish this without the presence of visible gills.

Abilities

- Master of twin offensive/defensive sai
- Olympic-level agility and speed

Weaknesses

- Dehydration: Because his natural habitat is water-oriented, Tintoretto is weakened when exposed to high temperatures and dry conditions.

Brief Bio - Banished from his planet, Tintoretto was sent to Earth, light years away from his home. Tintoretto was sent on a Slider spaceship to crash land on Earth and be killed by its roaming species. Fortunately for Tintoretto, his ship was intercepted by a colossal satellite outside of Earth's orbit. This satellite belonged to the Justice League of America, heroes of tomorrow. Tintoretto was taken in as a prisoner at first, but was later found no longer hostile. To be brief, he was given a chance by none other than the Martian Manhunter, an extraterrestrial being to the planet of Earth, just like Tintoretto. (Other stuff will be revealed throughout the RP hopefully.)

Notes - The Sliders are an amphibious race from planet Swaenous. Most Sliders grow rapidly into masculine creatures. Though they seem much older than they look, their physical appearance must be disregarded.

[Omega Man]

Looks good!

[Yog Sothoth]

I'm interested, are vampire heroes allowed?

[Omega Man]

Depends on how powerful they are and how you approach using one. Didn't you drop out of the last YJ game?

~KL~

[KillerKitten]

No longer valid, updated CS on page 4

[KillerKitten]

Maybe starfire??? Because that's how I picture him coming to earth, confused and rampaging like starfire was at first, and then becoming more assimilated with human life.

[Omega Man]

Starfire showed up in the Justice League Beyond era as a possible League member, so I could see her being in this era's Justice League along with Static. I'll get a League roster figured up to give you guys something to work with...

Name - Kilian Darukk

Alias - Ditto

Age - 21

Sponsor - Superman

Personality - serious, headstrong, stubborn

Powers - heightened physical attributes and increased strength [25 tons max lift], as well as unlimited duplication, and a telepathic link to every duplicate

Weaknesses - while stronger, faster, and more durable than most humans, Ditto can still be harmed by anything an average human would be. It should be noted his t-shirt and jeans are made with a kevlar titanium wool mesh. The original Ditto also feels severe pain of his duplicates, so if one gets a broken bone or killed he'll feel it however momentarily it can sometimes lead to blackouts.

Appearance -


BRIEF Bio - Kilian crash landed on Earth a little over a year ago while travelling the stars, in Metropolis no less, and shortly after began moonlighting as a superhero when Superman was away. A native of the planet Cargg, Superman was familiar with Ditto's alien heritage from his experience with the Legion of Superheroes from the 30th century. After meeting the hero in costume after a run-in with Parasite, the older Superman discovered out of costume he was living in homeless shelters while one of his duplicates performed on the street for pocket change. He was sponsored by Superman for the YJ team in Star City and was quickly labeled a mischief maker and dimwit by the other young heroes. After his trip to Metropolis everything changed and Ditto was more responsible and a little stronger in terms of power.

What's Changed - During a trip back to Metropolis Ditto's #3 disappeared. Unknown to the young hero who was now just a two man team, his third duplicate was captured and experimented on by Cadmus. After cracking the Carggite genetic code and giving the duplicate the ability to duplicate as well, #3 escaped and after absorbed by the original Ditto the original gained a power upgrade. Now distant from his duplicates, Ditto is more of a leader and looks at his heightened strength and numbers as an unlimited human resource. Ditto would later stop an army of Superman clones with the ability to duplicate along with the original Man of Steel.

Notes - Ditto went a complete 180 degrees from being a class clown type to being a leader. Learning to deal with compromise and adapting to overcome. League status isn't out of his reach now and any day he could get a call to assist the League, as well as a few others in the YJ program. After a year, metahuman crime in Star City has went down 20%.

Name:
Wisteria Adams
Alias:
Owlet
Age:
18
Sponsor:
Black Canary

Personality:
- Noble
- Sweet
- Fiery

Powers:

Genius Intellect:

Having had a well-off parent, Wisteria had been enrolled in whatever prestigious school had been in the area at the time. Her mind is very analytical, and she is said to see everything as some sort of piece to a formula, making it relatively simple for her to come up with plans. Also somewhat skilled as a detective. She is knowledgeable in most mathematics and the sciences, including Biology, Physics, Advanced Chemistry, Geography, Technology, and Engineering. Currently studying Criminal Science, Forensic Sciences, Computer Sciences, and History/Mythology, her main focus is to up her hacking skills, which are lack luster at the moment.

Stealth:

Having always been one who steps lightly, stealth was a skill Wisteria picked up from years of lurking around Gotham. After receiving proper training she is able to sneak into well-secured facilities with relative ease. Always seems to move without sound, even when not in a hostile environment, and because of this she has accidentally surprised many of her friends or teammates.

Peak Human Conditioning:

- Peak Human Reflexes: Perceptive, Wisteria is always prepared for an attack from behind, though she isn't skilled enough to dodge bullets or other quick-moving projectiles.

- Peak Human Agility: Trained in parkour and acrobatics, Wisteria is nimble and light on her feet and able to leap across rooftops with ease.

- Peak Human Speed: Her most important and best skill, Wisteria is faster than most human athletes. Every single stride she takes is put to use, and it is especially notable in fights when she can dodge even the quickest punches easily.

Martial Arts:

Trained in Jujitsu, Bōjutsu, Boxing, Dim Mak, Judo, Dragon Style Kung Fu, Iaido, Aikido, and Tae Kwon Do. She is a near master at master at Bōjutsu, Iaido, and Jujitsu. Relies mostly on her speed and her own ability to take another's weight and turn it against them in a fight. Her main weapon, the Bō staff, is often implemented in most of her fights, mostly acting as a tool to reach enemies from a longer distance.

Gadgets:

- Bō Staff (It can also be separated into two short range katana)
- Throwing Knives (fashioned to look like feathers)
- Explosive Throwing Knives
- Smoke Pellets
- Gas Pellets
- Stun Pellets
- Grappling Hook
- Flash Light(s)
- Mini Explosives
- Lock Pick Kit
- Stunning Toxins (liquid)
- Hardware Tools
- Small Snacks

Works in Progress:
- A weapon which uses a sound similar to Black Canary's cry to stun enemies.
- A tracker

Weaknesses:
- Having no powers at all, Wisteria is prone to injuries, some more fatal than others, and is weak to all things that can harm a human.
- Relies more on her speed, making her weaker than most superheros. Currently attempting to train both her strength and endurance.
- Lacks proper defense; her only shield is the mass of feathers on her costume.
- Bad endurance; must eat and rest constantly to stay up and about.

Appearance:
Costume
Wisteria is a girl of average beauty, average height, and average appearance. She stands at about 5'6, weighing a somewhat underweight 120lbs, and has an over all athletic build. Her hair is somewhat long, reaching down passed her shoulders, and is blonde in color and rather easy to manage. She has an angular face, with fair skin, lush lips, a sharp nose, and large, gray/blue eyes. Despite being a full grown woman, she does not have much to offer in the curves department, and could easily pass as a male if she were to just put her hair up and block out her face.

Doesn't care much for makeup or dressing up, and can be found wandering around in sweats and tank tops when not on a mission. Her costume consists of flexible material, with her only defense being the feathers on her back which can withstand most weapons, that is pattered and colored to resemble a tawny owl. She wears a cowl to hide her identity which also doubles as night vision goggles and a gas mask, and her gloves are equipped with retractable claws that are used for clinging to walls and scratching if necessary. She can’t fly, but the feathers on her back double as a glider for a just-in-case situation.

BRIEF Bio:
Born in New York and raised in Gotham, Wisteria grew up knowing that the world is full of dangers. Her mother, a supposedly widowed business woman, often warned her to stay away from most people, telling her stories of all the crime that run a muck in the darkness of the deadly streets, and Wisteria took all the stories and advice to heart. She grew up to be somewhat reserved and cynical, and if not for the sudden disappearance of her mother on her tenth birthday she might have remained that way for the rest of her life. Case after case looked for Ms. Adams, but every time they ended without even a single clue. Days, weeks, months went by, and every single time someone grew just a step closer to finding the woman, it all ended suddenly for an untold reason. Wisteria, finally fed up, began looking into the case herself.

Lurking around Gotham gave her a few leads on various criminals, but nothing about her mother. Trying to force information out of the tougher crowd would have been impossible for the now eleven year old, so she turned to training. Both her mind and her body were pushed to the limit, so much so that when she attempted to chase down a suspicious fella who was reportedly involved in many missing peoples cases Wisteria collapsed from sheer exhaustion. Three years of training left her body at near-death, bruised and battered,, and if not for a visiting Black Canary she wouldn't have made it through the night.

After resting and discussing her need to grow stronger the Canary took Wisteria under her wing. They traveled back to the Canary's home and began a healthier, yet tougher training regiment, and after a few years of intense physical and mental training Owlet was born.

Notes:
- Wrote Wisteria to this song, so I guess this could be considered her theme.
- Hates her name, and hates any nicknames that can be derived from her name.
- Her mother is still missing, and she is still somewhat interested in her case.

Impressions Chart

Ditto: "Our leader, and he seems to be a pretty good one. He supposedly used to be a bit more carefree, but I believe it's best to have a serious approach to the aspect of leading. I hope my skills will be of good use to him!"

Fenrir: "He seems a bit... Angry. All the time. It's a good emotion to have in a fight, but only if you know how to use it, and acting so abrasive to team mates isn't exactly a good way to make an impression."

Orbit: "She looks to be one of the smarter older members, at least, in my opinion. Kind of mouthy, but I can appreciate her abilities and am kind of impressed with her skills. Her mental strength might make her a suitable rival for me, but at the same time she seems kind of... Broken?"

Hellfire: "He seems a bit nicer than the others, despite being buddy-buddy with the angry guy. His powers are incredibly impressive, I definitely wouldn't wanna face him in a serious fight. I'll try to stay in his good side."

Shock: "Shock reminds me of a big sister! Despite being somewhat harsh, she's thoughtful and I can appreciate that. Her powers are cool as well, especially since I'm always interested in how they work. Normally, electromagnetism force is described by electromagnetic fields, and has innumerable physical instances including the interaction of electrically charged-"

Fate: "Fate seems a bit shy, though that's not unexpected in young people. While I have a faint interest in magic I am kind of curious about what happened to his arm..."

Brick:"Turtle! He's a turtle, that's so fucking cool! Oh, uh, anyway, he seems like a valuable team mate, despite being kind of short-tempered. I haven't heard much about his past, but I'm guessing he's some sort of alien."

Frostbite: "Oooh, I like him! He's got a way with words, and I've always found cryomancers to be rather fascinating. He's seems to be friendly in general, so maybe I have a chance at making a pal outta him."

Shadōdansā: "A... A demon? Who controls shadows? I mean, that's not the weirdest combo I've seen, and it might just be natural for their species to have a power like that. Anyway, as seems friendly, maybe a bit quiet, I hope I can become friends with her!"

Thrillseeker: "Possible threat to my role as the team's lovable powerless vigilante? It seems he's rather smart, and his equipment is apparently "better than mine". Well, we'll see about that!"
