Speedster WIP

Player Name:
rocketrobie2

Primary Character:
Slipstream

Secret Identity:
Xane Swift

Status:
Solo currently

Age:
22

City:
Gotham

Day Job:
Gas Station

Powers:
Prototype Slipstream Suit: Xane’s suit harness an unseen force of kinetic energy in order to propel the wearer at dazzling speeds. The full capabilities of the suit have yet to be seen as the human mind can’t interpret and react fast enough to use the suit to it’s full potential. The suit also provides a frictionless field around the wearer to protect against the nature troubles of traveling at high speeds along with some general body protection in case of high-speed crashes.

Weaknesses:
Bullets and Knives and Bears, Oh My!: Under the moderate armour of the suit, Xane is still just as vulnerable as the next guy and suffers from motion sickness on the regular due to the high speeds his body endures. His mind is also a weakness as he has to really pan his movements in the suit carefully or risk running straight into a wall at mach 2.
Undisciplined: Xane doesn’t have a very long attention span and as such, learning to properly fight hasn’t come easy to him. He relies too much on his suit to get through a fight at the moment.

Skills:
Adaptive: Xane isn’t the smartest guy but that means he rarely gets stuck trying to make a plan work. His method of constant trial and error allows him to be a little less predictable that a more methodical combatant.

Appearance:
What does your hero look like [I’ll try and make micros for anybody who wants them]

BRIEF Bio:
Xane Swift had been a deadbeat all his life, mooching off his parents and expecting everything in the world to be given to him on a silver platter. This mentality landed him in a situation of no escape where he was being cut off from his parent’s funds and getting kicked out of college for his poor attendance and grades. As things went downhill Xane was contacted by a sect of criminals known as the Reapers who offered him a way to make quick cash by going even quicker. The Reapers supplied Xane with a suit that granted him superspeed and they told him to commit a string of robberies. Xane managed to accomplish his task, narrowly avoiding capture at the hands of Batman who eventually ended up busting the Reapers and leaving Xane with a super-weapon and without a purpose.

The speedster tried to keep up the robberies to keep himself going but after about a month of close run ins with the Batman and the ever increasing amount of vigilantes in Gotham, Xane decided to lie low and get a real job while his reputation died down. Working in the glamorous field of gas station attendee was boring work but Xane would rather be stuck behind a counter than behind bars any day of the week. This were going alright until Xane was held up at gunpoint and robbed while running the store. Not one to take a mugging lying down, Xane suited up that night and broke the nose of the crook and a few of his friends as they were proceeding to jump a family. Naturally Xane pocketed the recovered gas money but word from that family began to spread and the bank robbing speedster from a month ago was now turning over a new leaf.

Originally Xane paid the rumours no mind but the positive praise from some began to work at his ego and soon Xane was going out patrolling the streets and stopping all manner of petty crimes, all the while narrowly avoiding any of the other vigilantes of the city. Xane’s not sure if the hero thing will stick but the thrill of being a good guy feels much better than the thrill of a ten second heist.

Story Arcs:
Get Ahead with V9!: Xane’s stint of being uniquely fast has come to an abrupt end as a new drug hits the streets of Gotham. Velocity-9 is doing for every thug in Gotham what the Slipstream suit did for Xane. Now Xane has to make a made dash to get the drug off the street by making his way straight to the top before the drug goes into mass production. Can Xane figure out who’s producing the drug? More importantly, is he fast enough to stop them? Find out in... Get Ahead with V9! (Team-up)

Gotham’s Flash Freeze: Mr.Freeze is back in action after a brief stint of staying under the bat’s radar. Now Freeze and his goons are on the offensive, taking over pockets of Gotham’s industrial district and slowly turning the city into a winter wasteland. Not wanting to see his home turn into an iceberg, Xane covers up and treks into the heart of the storm in an attempt to liberate Gotham from a second ice age. Join Slipstream in… Gotham’s Flash Freeze(Titans Mission)

A Dash to the Past: Having found some mysterious ruins under Gotham city, Xane investigates as he finds some unsettling scenes depicted in the stone carvings, eventually leading him to a confrontation with a new foe and a realization that will shake him to the core. Interested in Slipstream’s escapade? Read Xane Swift in… A Dash to the Past (Solo, Possible Team-up)

Legs the Robot

Legs The Robot

NAME
Legs, Formerly Known as Sargent Bayonet
AGE
Depends (Parts have been replaced so often any real age is inaccurate)
GENDER
N/A
SPECIES
Mister Gutsy base
HOMETOWN
Northern Province, Shreveport
FACTION
N/A

---

Everybody who’s anybody knows what a Mr.Gutsy looks like; three eye stocks connected to a central, spherical base accompanied by three arms and a thruster for low-level hovering. Legs is a Mr.Gutsy in the loosest sense of the word. His two eye stocks (his right most one is missing) are separate in make and design with one being more classic in design with a spherical lense/eye coupled with a lightly armoured stock, while the other is more industrial in design with the eye looking more akin to a security camera (a box with a camera lens on it) and a stronger, more armoured stock.His central frame is pretty standard as it looks pretty close to his original chrome and spherical shell though there is obvious signs of structural reinforcement and the addition of a brow backpack attached to the back.

By far Legs’ most defining feature is his titular legs. Unlike most of his kind, Legs lacks a thruster and any of his arms with only a set of frankensteined Assultron legs below his head. The legs are a lot more weathered than the rest of the body as they’ve seen the most modification and are bashed against things more often than the other parts. There’s spikes protruding from the shins and the tip of the feet are sharpened to a point.

TYPE ENFP-A
SPECTATOR'S REACTION
Legs loves to talk but he’ll keep his responses short and sweet unless he’s explaining something of the Occult in which case he’ll go overboard with detail. When it comes to dangerous situations, Legs will try to talk his way out of a scuffle before being forced into combat of which he adores. He sees fighting as a guilty pleasure; not something that he should like but he does all the same. His laid back and cheery attitude will snap to swearing and stressed if anybody gets too close to him without his express permission.

TRAIT
Wild Swampland

You’ve somehow managed to summon the weird around you. Things will get odd quicker than they get normal.

SKILLS
Combat Skill
Unarmed

A combination of martial arts, boxing and other hand-to-hand martial arts. Combat with your hands and feet.

Passive Skill(s)

Speech

The ability to communicate in a practical and efficient manner. The skill of convincing others that your position is correct. The ability to lie and not get caught.

PERK
I Think you Misheard; I Meant This: You can redo any Charisma you or your party has. If someone fails on convincing/charming/etc a NPC, you can erase their attempt and begin a new one.

STRENGTHS

• Etiquette: Being around the high-class of the Louisiana wasteland for the better part of twenty years, Legs has picked up on how to be courteous to others. That being said, most things that leave his speaker during his stints of pleasantries are lies.
• Knowledge of the Occult: Legs has seen things that he can’t quite explain nor would he like to. He’s taken to learning as much as he can about the supernatural aspects of the world in an effort to figure out just what they are and possibly put a stop to them.
• Lucky: Somebody somewhere must like Legs. Despite some unfortunate run-ins and close shaves, Sargent Bayonet has managed to stay alive and kicking through impossible odds it would seem and the bucket of rust is just fine with his string of good luck.

WEAKNESSES

• Nearsighted: Legs’ optics aren’t as good as they once were. They’ve been scrapped, put back together and replaced so much that Legs’ programming can’t keep them working at an optimal level anymore. As such he can suffer brief to not-so-brief outages in one or all of his eyes leaving him blind.
• Arms: Though the robot has more than made do, Legs doesn’t possess arms. He’s gotten around this handicap by manipulating objects with his eye stocks and titular legs but its pretty hard to pull a trigger without fingers.
• Touch: Legs doesn’t like to be touched under any circumstances. Even with repairs he’ll only let somebody operate on him if he’s in a dire circumstance or just offline.

WEAPONS
Ball and Chain: Ball and Chain is what Legs’ calls his legs. He’s had spikes mounted onto the shins and the tips of his feet sharpened to a point.
ARMOR
Reinforced Duraframe: It may be a little less sleek than his original frame but Legs’ newest bodywork is tougher than his mass-produced older shell. It also comes with the added bonus of a backpack.
CHEMICALS

• 3x Hallucinogenic herbs

MISCELLANEOUS
Buzzsaw: A Buzzsaw attachment for a standard Mr.Gutsy Model.

Clank, clank, clank, clank,

The rhythmic sound of Legs’ feet hitting the disused and cracked asphalt was the drowned out by the loud yelling and shouting of merchants who had set up shop in the street to sell their goods to travellers or vendors. It had been decades since Legs had last been home and he had missed all the buildings that he had come to recognize and know in his years of service there. His eyes swivel this way and that, taking in how the area had changed from so long ago but as he waltzed up to his old home; Fort Polk. The old Army Base was rundown to say the least which saddened the machine’s metaphorical heart but seeing that the place was still mostly intact was enough keep his spirits high.

He roamed the halls looking to see if there was any of the old weapons surplus left around though he doubted there would be as the base sat in a decently populated area. To no-one’s surprise no weapons were left in the building but Legs found something even better than any assault rifle or explosive stockpile. Laying on the ground, right where it had been blown off, was the buzzsaw arm attachment of Sargent Bayonet.

“Ha ha! It’s still here! Guess it’s my lucky day!” Legs said as he crouched down.

“What the he-?” came a voice behind Legs which prompted him to straighten up and turn to see a person decked out in some makeshift armour with an insignia of a shooting star on it.

“Hey! There’s some robot snooping’ around in here!” the man called out as some other similarly dressed gang members rushed to their friend’s side. “Who sent you? This is Stars ’n’ Stripes turf.” one of the newcomers exclaimed as she raised a shotgun up to eye level of Legs.

“Mr.STARS AND STRIPES sent me to procure some items for him.” Legs replied, making his voice sound somewhat garmbled.

“Who’s Mr.Stars an-“

“It’s probably Mr.Jack, this thing’s just on the fritz I’ll bet. I’ll tell Joey when we get back to the fort.” One ganger said to the other as they both nodded in agreement. Legs proceeded to crouch down and pretend to make body motions as if he were trying to pickup the saw with phantom limbs as the gang members chuckled at the scene. Eventually one of the gangers walked over and helped the robot get the small saw into it’s backpack.

Immediately Legs marched out of the building, souvenir in tow, feeling borderline murderous after coming into such close contact with the ganger. He hoped that nothing like this would happen during his job with the governor but he doubted he would be that lucky.
