Player Name:
Clanjos
Primary Character:
Booster Gold
Secret Identity:
Michael Jon Carter
Status:
Solo/JLU Reserve
Age:
Born December 29th, 2442- but he's around 28.
City:
Metropolis, though he monitors the timestream from a metaphysical dimension known as "Vanishing Point"- a self-contained space station situated in the last nanosecond before entropy consumes the universe.
Day Job:
Michael Jon Carter works as a PR agent for other superheroes and a liaison between charities and heroes. Booster Gold, however, operates as a freelance timecop, protecting the integrity of the timestream from both time-terrorists and time-terrors.
Powers:
Legion Flight Ring- Engraved with the signature "L" of the Legion of Super-Heroes, this ring enables its wearer the ability to fly in both atmospheric environments and outer space.
The Suit- The suit is comfy and easy to wear. The suit itself is very durable, able to withstand bullets without losing its integrity (although being shot hurts).
--Wristblasters- The suit is able to fire powerful energy blasts, via blasters in the costume's gauntlets. At their highest setting, these blasts are capable of plowing through two solid feet of concrete. Booster usually turns them down to conserve energy though.
--Force Field Belt- This belt generates a forcefield strong enough to withstand a nuclear blast- but it has limited power.
--Super Strength- The microcircuitry woven into the mesh affords Booster a high measure of super-strength, enough to easily shift twenty tons- and a great deal more if he exerts himself. However, Booster must take into account the fact that attempting to lift things that heavy often causes them to fall apart under their own weight.
--Time Travel Circuitry- While wearing the suit, Booster Gold can travel forward or backward to any point in history- and jump between parallel timelines as well. It can traverse chronological anomalies without issue.
Skeets- A reprogrammed security robot and personal assistant.
Weaknesses:
Aside from the suit, Booster's a regular guy- a guy with a college footballer's physique and future genetics, but still a regular guy.
Skills:
Business Management- Booster WAS a business major for his three years of college.
History- Being a time traveler, Booster knows all about history- even events that seem inconsequential at the time can have effects that echo throughout the epochs.
Athletics- He's actually extremely athletic, and while he doesn't eat as well as he should, he spends more than enough time in the gym to stay in top shape.
Gridiron Football- Booster actually got into college on a football scholarship. Surprisingly, this actually gives him some hand-to-hand combat training after rule changes in 2337 made football a full-contact sport.

BRIEF Bio:
Michael Jon Carter and his sister Michelle Carter were born as twins to a loving mother and an irresponsible father in Gotham City in the 25th Century. On their 4th birthday, their father left the household to pursue his true love, gambling. Michael would attend college on a football scholarship, hoping that he would make it into the big leagues, when his mother came down with a debilitating disease that required a treatment that his family could not afford. Turning to the same vice as his father, Michael made bets on his own games in order to earn enough money for the treatment. After his mother was cured, Michael was arrested and put in jail for gambling, instantly breaking his mother's heart. After he was set free from jail, Michael decided get a job as a security officer for the Metropolis Space Museum to support himself. There, he saw images of superheroes from the 21st Century that were legends in his time. Deciding to do something worthwhile with his life and become a superhero himself, Michael stole some artifacts from the museum as well as the security robot Skeets and used Rip Hunter's time machine to travel back to the 21st Century. It was there that he made his public debut, saving the life of the President of the United States from the Chiller as the new superhero Goldstar. Nervous, Michael misspoke on live television and got stuck with the name Booster Gold instead.
From there, it was a bit of a whirlwind- he used his knowledge of the future to make a fortune and establish the Michael Jon Carter people of the 21st century are familiar with. He set himself up as Booster Gold's publicity agent, dealing with sponsorships and charities who wanted to partner with the highly public hero. He'd go on to extend this service to other heroes as well, forming a bridge between various charitable organizations and the superhuman community.
