Forgotten Heroes: Marvel's Underdogs

I'm best friends with a clown, I'm all good!

Forgotten Heroes: Marvel's Underdogs

Name: Justice Enforcement Droid, or JED for short

Alias: Jackpot Justice

Age: Has existed for a few million years, but has only been active for 7 month.

Gender: N/A, but has decided to refer to itself as a male.

Appearance

JED Stands at an impressive 7 feet tall, weighs 2500 lbs, and is appears to be made entirely of a strange crystalline substance that is foreign to earth. After several tests, Rogue X has discovered that the substance is about half as strong as steel, but far less heavy. JED does not wear clothes since very little could actually fit his strange anatomy, and is covered in edges that, while not very sharp, could easily hurt someone if they were stabbed. JED, with his shape shifting abilities, is capable of shifting his general structure, but not changing colors or his total mass. This allows him to create manipulators, like hands, that allow him to interact with objects. He speaks in a deep, booming voice that demands attention, which sounds almost exactly like a human besides an electronic undertone that someone would expect of a robot. Has a slight Japanese accent, despite never interacting with a person from Japan. The most distracting feature, however, is the bright red 'eye' that is in the middle of JED's face. This is his core, and if destroyed, he is killed unless it can be repaired. This core is JED's only method of sight, and is also the place he charges his batteries.

Personality Strengths:
- Strong Will - JED is, above all else, strong willed. He will spare no expense in the pursuit of justice, and will not let anything stop him. If he can will his way through something, he'll do it to uphold justice.

- Inspirational - JED was designed to be an officer unit on his home planet, and was made to inspire his comrades to fight for truth, the weak, and Justice. This was also programmed to be experienced constantly by him, and that is why he is able to rise up even after having his body heavily damaged.

- Helpful - Whether he was programmed that way or years of deactivation has altered his way of thinking, JED is always willing to pick up the slack. Whether it's putting in time doing community service so someone can relax or doing taxes, JED will help anyone if they ask politely.

- Fun - JED is just fun to be around. With his over-the-top personality and his occasional joke, JED could make most people smile easily. He is especially good with children, and as long as no one is doing anything illegal, he's great at a party.

Personality Flaws:
- Doesn't Discriminate - It doesn't matter if you are a murderous monster who kills for fun, or a little girl trying to jaywalk. JED was built to uphold the law, and will do so without regard to age, gender, or crime. Expect him to force people to pick up their litter or hold a person down until a police officer excuses their actions. No matter how much Rogue X has messed with his core, this programming is impossible to alter.

- No One is Over the Law - Not even JED. JED will refuse to kill a person, no matter how much of a monster they are. He is willing to fight and even seriously injure, as he believes a police officer would do the same, but murder is far too much. Additionally, JED will never steal or commit even the smallest of crimes (Except public indecency, since he can't find any clothes that fit him).

- Lack of Understanding Empathy - It's hard to tell what JED is thinking since he lacks traditional facial cues and body language, and his strange anatomy makes him avoided by most. This goes both ways, however - JED can't understand human body language or facial features, believing 'they all look the same'. While JED can understand vocal tones and speech perfectly, his lack of understanding on human behaviors makes him less than perfect at persuasion.

- Nosy - Will try and pry into other people's business no matter the situation, whether because he wants to help or because he thinks they may be criminals. Expect him to know many personal facts about different people. At the very least, he'll know when your birthday is...

Powers:
Robotic Physiology - JED does not need food or water to survive, and can theoretically be active constantly. Additionally, typical poisons and substances that would harm a biological creature would pose no problem towards JED. However, JED does require electricity to remain active. His total battery is 15 kilowatts, and he requires 1.875 kilowatts hourly in order to remain active, but exerting himself can raise this up to 3 kilowatts an hour (8 hours active, 5 hours max when exerting himself). This means, should he be stuck in a location for a long period of time without access to electricity, he would be rendered powerless.

The core can be used as a solar panel, but due to the differences between the sun and his home-world's star, it would take him a month to completely fill his battery. JED has a maximum lift of 1500 pounds, can move at a maximum speed of 10 mph, cannot jump, and is as durable as the material he is currently composed of (A crystalline material half as strong as steel). It should be noted he lacks the bonuses of a biological body (He can not enjoy pleasures like eating, he cannot grow stronger since he lacks muscles to train, etc). Refilling his battery completely takes 8 hours (16 if he remains active). It is possible that the using his battery more frequently will eventually increase the lifespan to former levels, but this is very unlikely. The only weak point on JED is the core, which is delicate and very difficult to repair.

Bodily control - JED is capable of minor shape shifting by temporarily weakening the molecular bonds between them, and shifting them into a new shape. He can manipulate his general structure to give himself hands, blades, or other weapons. He can even shoot parts of his body outwards as projectiles. However, all of these activities are strenuous, and shape shifting rapidly can easily drain his battery. Additionally, objects shot from his body can no longer be manipulated until they return to the body. JED can only make minor changes, like manipulating a limb. He can't completely change his structure, and some materials are too strong to be changed swiftly, or even at all (Adamantium, Vibranium, etc).

Reconstruction - JED is capable of reconstructing his body using the materials around him. His body will slowly cause stone, dirt, or anything nearby to slowly gravitate towards his wounds, and reconstruct himself until he has a similar mass to what he once possessed. While this could be used to incorporate better materials into his body and make him more durable, it can only be done involuntarily - his body reconstructs itself with the nearest and easiest materials to move, and only does so while he is inactive. This means that it is impossible for JED to heal while active, and will almost always be weaker than he was before unless he has access to strong materials. Reconstruction takes 8 hours to repair a limb-worth of damage. Additionally, no matter what materials are present, it is impossible for JED alone to fix his core.

Major Skills:

Willpower: JED can resist most temptations as long as he has a reason to, and will go to many lengths to protect the weak. If someone is breaking the law or defacing justice, expect JED to be a bastion of willpower and determination with the mission of apprehending the criminal.

CQC: JED is proficient in all manners of Close Quarters Combat, and uses his shape shifting to create weaponry and restraints for opponents.

Inspiration: As noted in the personality section, JED is truly incredible at motivating people and raising their morale. Whether inspiring people to go after that promotion or motivating them to go that last mile in a fight, JED probably has a motivational speech for nearly any situation.

Minor Skills:

Chemistry: One of the things that JED was taught when first coming online was chemistry, which he has a fondness for. Of course, this is nowhere near as impressive as his love for Justice.

Gambling: Somewhat ironic considering some parts of the US outlaws it, JED loves to gamble. Or, more accurately, he loves the risk of gambling. As such, JED is somewhat proficient in most games seen at casinos. Of course, this does not mean he is better at luck-based games, which he seems to prefer. In fact, when creating his alias, he decided to combine the two things he liked the most.

Diligence: JED can spend hours on end doing some meaningless, boring task without stopping, almost certainly because of his motivation. This usually manifests itself in performing menial labor or community service, which is one of his hobbies.

Weapons: JED forms his own weaponry, usually using either a sharp blade to pierce and slash opponents or a blunt hammer-like tool. His third favorite tool is manacles, which he forms whenever a criminal is incapacitated.

Equipment: Lacking any form of employment outside of Rogue X, JED simply lacks the funds necessary to have any equipment.

History: JED was originally constructed by the Shakorin, a race of humanoids who resembled squids. JED was one of a millions, his model being used as enforcement droids. Thanks to the fact that the Shakorin sun released far more energy and was out far longer than the Earth's star, JED's were capable of being online nearly constantly, and had batteries that could last days in dark areas or during the night. Shakorin society relied heavily on solar energy, supplementing it with nuclear power during the night. Shakorins were never able to become multi-planetary, since they lacked nearby planets to colonize and they were incapable of FTL travel. As a result, overpopulation became an incredibly large issue, and space became the most valuable commodity. People began to live underground and in the oceans to create more living space, but eventually, tragedy struck - disease had always been rampant, but a virus quickly developed that quickly spread throughout most of the population. Unable to support itself and most workers already dead, Shakorin nuclear plants eventually had a meltdown, resulting in a sudden chain reaction or nuclear explosions all across the planet. The combine force successfully managed to destroy the planet, sending stone and materials all throughout space. Most of these materials managed to remain in the gravity of the planet, and would eventually reform into a rocky barren exoplanet. Some material escaped, however - including an inactive JED unit, one of the last ever made.

For the next 3 million years, the JED continued to drift through space, traveling throughout the milky way galaxy, ever increasing the distance between it and it's home world. Despite the vast time spent inactive, the JED remained relatively unaffected - it was sealed inside of an air tight container, made of the same crystalline substance, protecting the JED from stress and matter. The only thing that suffered was the battery - it had been charged before the destruction of the planet, and millennia of inactivity resulted in the battery's lifespan suffering. It was almost poetic - the sole survivor of his planet was left to drift through the endless void, unaware of the destruction of it's creators. However, after 3 million years of silence, a miracle occurred.

It was pure chance - any number of variables, a difference of only a few hundred miles could have resulted in JED passing by. Luckily, the stars seemed to be right. JED crash landed in Highlands, NJ, destroying a portion of the Twin Lights Lighthouse as it did so. The first respondents were local authorities, who came to investigate the large chunk of blue crystal. Prying open the hatch, JED was discovered, lying completely motionless and deactivated. It only took one thing - a Mr.Gordan Sellers, a rooky officer who showed up to investigate, reached out and touched the black orb residing in the middle of JED's face. Then, for the first time ever, the 3 million old robot awoke.

Looking back on it, things were pretty hilarious. A giant crystal monster being yelled at to 'stand down' by police, despite the robot not even knowing English. It wasn't until agents from the nearest organization, Rogue X, arrived that things finally cooled down. The agents were able to lead the passive Jed all the way to Brooklyn, NY, where they spent the next month teaching the robot English. Finally able to understand one another, JED revealed that he was completely unaware of his origin, having had his memory automatically wiped after the first thousand years of inactivity. JED was given refuge by Rogue X, and was offered electricity and safety. Eventually, however, JED's primary directive revealed itself - he began to question the laws of Earth. For the next 6 months, with little event, JED was taught extensively in law and other subjects, after demonstrating his desire to help uphold justice on earth. Finally, after Rogue X's arbitrary requirements were met, JED was ready to become a hero.

Other:
- Powers that work on inorganic materials can work on JED
- Was never offered to join a larger superhero organization due to both being found by Rogue X first and his... 'quirks' (He berated a child for 10 minutes after she littered, and then immediately chased a man 5 blocks when he jaywalked).
- Hobbies include gambling (usually with very little money that he ends up losing), community service, fighting crime, hanging out with friends, and playing with children.

Nah, Lack of Empathy is perfect! Will edit that and then post in Character index.

I just couldn't think of a good name. I meant he has a hard time figuring out other people's emotions and interpreting body language/facial expressions.

@AngelofOctober
Pretty much done, other than a few minor questions: has everyone on the team already met, or will we meet each other in RP? Are we already living in the apartments, or will we start by moving into them? Other than that, is this guy okay?

Afterlife: Dead Sun

*Approved through PM

Troy Crane (5 Souls Spent)

Appearance

Name: Troy Crane (1)

Nickname:

Alias:

Gender: Male (2)

Form: Ascendant

Appearance: Troy is almost identical to the spirits that inhabit the rest of the afterlife, the only difference being that he is slightly more defined, possessing ears and a mouth, along with missing the white glow. This is only externally, however - internally, Troy is completely composed of a combination of maggots, larvae, and grubs, squirming just underneath his skin. These maggots can open holes in his flesh to escape and be used as weapons, and they appear to be a hive mind. Troy is of nondescript height, and weighs 170 pounds (77 kg), only 20 pounds (9 kg) of which being his skin, while the rest is the massive number of insects. The maggots are of varying sizes, but all are grey or white. Despite lacking a nose or eyes, Troy is capable of sight and smell.(3)

Height:

Weight: 170 (4)

Hair Color:

Eye Color:

Personality: Troy can be described as animalistic above all else, perhaps due to his odd biology. He can not easily comprehend morality or honor, and only considers the lives of those that help him survive as valuable. He believes that every creature places survival above all else, and will be completely perplexed if someone proves otherwise. Troy is not very smart when it comes to typical academics, but is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to biological sciences, especially the biology of insects. He is somewhat of a coward, refusing to fight an opponent that far outclasses him unless he is presented an obvious advantage or an ally needs help. In comparison, Troy vastly prefers consuming souls that are of lower strength than him, as it is a far easier kill and puts him at less risk. As expected of someone who places so much value in his life, Troy will go to any length available in order to survive. While he tries not to show it, he seriously wonders how he was while he was still alive, only remembering a strange nostalgic feeling of calm whenever he sees an insect. Finally, Troy will constantly try to tell those that ask that he is emotionless, since he views having emotions as weakness, despite the fact that he clearly feels emotions.

Troy's main, overarching ideology is survival of the fittest - he wishes to stay in a group as it provides security, not because he cares about the group or has a duty to help others. Troy will, of course, do his best to help the group survive, mainly by offering utility and support, but it is unlikely he will take a hit for someone unless they would die without his protection. He is subject to narcissism and pride, and this could prove to be an incredibly large weakness. Finally, while understandable, Troy is incredibly paranoid that a stronger spirit will try to kill him, and he is untrustworthy of those stronger than him. (5)

Rank: Ascendant 1

Soul Count: 5

Powers/Abilities:

Insect Composition
Description: Troy is composed of maggots, larvae and grubs. Each individual weighs 20 milligrams, and Troy contains 3,402,000 in his entire body. These insects can all be controlled individually, or as a group, and Troy's skin is able to form holes for the creatures to escape outside the body. All the insects are capable of biting and burrowing into dirt or flesh, but are weak individually. As a result of having no vital organs, Troy is incredibly difficult to kill. Additionally, his insects are capable of regenerating while inside his body, able to produce 100,000 daily until he reaches his maximum. These insects can survive indefinitely outside of Troy's body and he is capable of seeing through them, but this still count towards his total. His skin heals at a normal rate, and is able to regenerate from a piece as small as a finger, though that would take years. While mostly benign, the intense heat caused by the maggots makes Troy's body temperature a sweltering 115 degrees Fahrenheit, which the insects only survive since they were genetically altered.

Consequences: Troy, while incredibly resilient to most forms of damage, is just as weak to bludgeoning damage as a normal person. Additionally, the insects that compose his body are still restricted by instincts. Outright suicide orders for a single insect may be okay, but commanding groups upwards of 10,000 into a fire or pool of acid would be resisted against. While insects can survive theoretically forever outside his body, Troy's body is the only place that they can reproduce, and losing that would essentially be a death sentence. While the insects are truly terrifying if they manage to get inside of an opponent and cause internal damage, they are pretty much useless against heavily armored opponents. Finally, Troy is physically weaker than the average person, as he only possesses insects for muscles.
