Absolute Comics Presents - What If? [A DC & Marvel Multiverse RP]

I run a lot of MHR in the eXiles format, so I have a metric borkload of Marvel-specific Variant ideas.

Noble Arms - The ASEAN War, Second Thread

APPLICATION:

Name: Robert "Berto" Williams

Age: In his fifties, approximately.

Nationality: American.

Noble Arm Name & Appearance: Archie's Lever; appears as a variety of old, battered hand tools.

Noble Arm Rank: TBD.

Noble Arm Type, Element, and Range: Melee/Ranged, close-to-mid range, depending on form. Archie's Lever is serviceable as a weapon, but its real power lies in its use as a near-universal multitool.

Noble Arm Abilities:

Multi-Tool: Berto can use Archie's Lever as pretty much any small hand tool whose form and function he understands.

Kintsugi: Any physical object that Berto repairs with Archie's Lever-- including people and animals he offers first aid-- is more resilient than it was before it was damage. This effect is only temporary when applied to living beings.

Misc Abilities: Berto has picked up a lot of odd skills from his years on the fringes of society. Notably, he possesses a solid, if unpolished, grasp of the Occult Programming Language.

Personality: There's something a little unnerving, perhaps a little unnatural, about Berto's easygoing demeanor; his kindness and patience are seemingly endless, but anyone who spends time with him gets the impression that he's constantly doing everything in his power to keep from screaming. Berto loves using the powers of Archie's Lever to help people in little ways even more than trying to change the world.

*Likes: Solving problems, wandering in the city, homecooked meals.

*Dislikes: Authority, cruelty, senseless destruction.

Bio: Robert-- probably not his real name-- was enrolled by his parents in an illegal Spartan Training Program in his early teens. The program was particularly brutal, but more effective than most; nevertheless, Robert was an abject failure and by the time the program was shut down, his psyche was believed to be irreparably broken. With his parents in prison, Robert was made a ward of the state until he was eighteen years old, and spent the next couple of decades bouncing in and out of homeless shelters, jails, and hospitals.

A few years ago, Robert discovered Archie's Lever while in "therapeutic isolation". Unconsciously and unintentionally, he used it to fix his mind, a feat that appears to be beyond his current powers. A few months after that, he was declared competent to stand trial, convicted of a laundry list of petty misdemeanors, and sentenced to time served. A few months after that, he disappeared without a trace, and the first sightings of a "Robert Williams" using a Noble Arm to repair bombed-out houses and set broken bones were reported.

*Current Goal: Identify the problem. Understand the problem. Fix the problem.

Military or Civilian Rank: Is in the country illegally on an expired tourist visa.
