__________________ XBox Live: Unbias3d
Steam: Paradox Method
Powers: A high degree of invulnerability/durability, enough superhuman strength to lift an atomic bomb, superhuman speed, agility and leaping ability (he can't fly but with those, it's good enough). He also possesses enhanced senses of sight, hearing and smell.
Personality: A strong sense of right and wrong, will never (intentionally) do anything bad or illegal. This comes from a combination of being raised by a policewoman and reading "old-school" Silver Age comics. While he will occasionally do things for money, it will be either for charity or to fund his own heroics (for example, he expressed a desire to study law and get a medical doctorate, both of which mean things like college, which in turn means tuition fees.)
Bio: Michael McMahon was born with his invulnerability, a fact ascertained when he fell on the floor of the delivery room and the floor broke. As his mother, Stephanie McMahon, raised him (no father; in fact, she claims to have been a virgin at the time of her pregnancy), his other abilities developed, and she taught him to use them responsibly. One day when they were visiting Washington DC, they discovered that a nuclear missile was heading for the Washington Monument; if it hit, Washington DC would be annihilated. Mike ran out of their camper, raced up the side of the Monument, backflipped onto the nuke, rode it like a rodeo bronco, and managed to get down with it safely. The fantastic image of a fifteen-year-old boy holding up a nuclear missile was displayed on newspapers, TV, Youtube, etc. Now Mike's about to learn what a double-edged sword fame can be...

Name: Philippe Toussaint (Le Gardien/the Guardian)
Age: 34
Gender: Male
Species: Superhuman with Cybernetic Enhancements
Physical Description: 6’4”, 246 lbs. He is a large, dark-skinned man with very short white hair and a tuft of white hair on his chin. He has a heavily muscled frame and wide shoulders, a square jaw and large hands. His left eye is a gentle brown color while his right eye is missing, covered by a black eye patch. His outfit consists of a white undershirt, black jeans, a dark gray duster jacket that ends just short of his knees, and a pair of wide-toed black leather combat boots. All of his clothing is specially treated to be up to six times as durable as the base materials they were made from.
Powers: From his mid twenties he exhibited biological immortality and superhuman intelligence but after a mechanical augmentation process he replaced his skin with a flexible material made from a bio-synthetic hybrid of human skin and spider silk. Artificial hair is grafted upon the skin’s surface and serves the same sensory functions as actual hair would along with millions of tiny sensory nodes that replace natural thermoreceptors, nociceptors, and other sensory receptors. It is notable that his artificial nociceptors are tuned to a very high pain threshold allowing Philippe to withstand severe torture without flinching. His skin is (for its thickness) five times as durable as steel and can deflect small caliber/low velocity bullets. Philippe also replaced his heart and lungs with more efficient mechanical substitutes giving him extreme endurance and replaced his skeletal muscle with a complex system of striated contractile (and self-sufficient in terms of energy supply) micro-machine cells that mimic natural muscle cells but at higher levels of performance, granting him the strength of 250 men and the speed of a bullet train. Sophisticated nano-machines line his digestive tract and course through his circulatory system. These machines act as a highly adaptive immune system and make Philippe immune to practically all diseases and highly resistant to poisons. The bones of his skeleton are coated with a thin layer of a pseudo metal that is shock absorbent and fracture resistant as well as light weight, making his bones ten times stronger than that of a normal human. His senses are so acute and his reflexes are said to be fast enough that he can (while blindfolded and facing the gunman with his back) spin around and catch a bullet with his bare hands, alerted by subtle changes in air gradients when the bullet comes within a few meters of his person.
Strength Level: Class 25
Skills/Attributes: Philippe Toussaint is among the greatest minds in his Universe, a certified Polymath matched perhaps only by his nemesis and former lover: the Arctic Queen (Josephine Talbot). He can apparently think “five things at the same time without having to rely on extensive heuristics” and is an avid multi-tasker often seen filling in a crossword puzzle while carrying on a conversation over the phone while concurrently cooking over a stove and watching the television. It has also been said that when left in a death trap and given a ten second window he could “devise thirty-seven different escape strategies in the first two seconds, throw out thirty-six of them in the third second, implement his plan in the next five seconds, and plan out his evening dinner in the last two”. Though he has no formal education to speak of he is self educated and self taught and performs on doctorate levels in over 47 scientific disciplines with biology, robotics, nano-technology, computer science, molecular chemistry, and particle physics being his “strong suits”. His godly mental prowess also carries over to his mastery of the fighting arts. He is a skilled martial artist who despite having no formal training uses his superhuman stats and natural bio-kinesthetic intellect to spar competently with the most skilled of opponents. His tactical acuity is also next to peerless to the point that an observer once declared that other than his intelligence Philippe’s power was “never losing fights, ever”. Additionally Philippe is a skilled fencer and natural polyglot fluent in over 29 languages (not including sub-dialects).
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Personality: Soft spoken and always calm and collected he inspires hope by presence alone. Brilliant but humble he has earned the nick-name “Prof” (short for Professor) among friends for his great intellect and tendency to give lengthy lectures on various subjects when asked even simple questions. He is also known for his “catchphrase”: the French expletive merde, uttered whenever under duress or consternation sometimes as a whisper or (in more serious cases) as a violent roar. This is almost always followed by him hastily performing the sign of the cross (unless his hands are obstructed). The latter peculiarity is a throwback to his Catholic upbringing and though he no longer follows the faith he still holds certain rituals close to his heart, confession among them. He has explained that “confessing sins, whether there is a God to confess to or not is a cleansing process that can do wonders to ease guilt and strengthen the spirit”.
Equipment: Apart from his clothes and his internal implants Philippe always carries with him two external devices. The first is his artificial eye (disguised as an eye patch) which can do nearly everything the Arctic Queen’s own mechanical eye can do, everything except project light or other forms of energy (it also lacks a connection to any sort of computer). He also possesses an advanced robot assistant he built himself, a robot he affectionately refers to as Amitié (friend).
Amitié in ‘his’ natural state appears as a plain pancake-shaped hunk of smooth silvery metal with a diameter of ten centimeters and a height (at the center) of three centimeters. When not in use Amitié rests on a docking station attached around Philippe’s left wrist and can be launched (like a Frisbee) with a flick of the wrist. Once launched Amitié is capable of autonomous flight at speeds that can approach Mach 5.
The little robot can perform a wide range of tasks (assisted by his advanced AI with a semi-organic algorithm allowing for almost human-level problem solving and learning) including but not limited to reconnaissance, holography, sound synthesizing (allowing for communication using a system of high pitched beeps that only Philippe understands as well as more normal communication) and audio recording, and creation of cloaking fields.
While in Philippe’s hands Amitié can transform into a wide variety of weapons and appliances which in the past have included a sword, a cell phone, a screw-driver, a stove kettle, an Mp3 player, and a pair of roller-skates. Amitié is made of a malleable yet nigh-indestructible material and seems to love Philippe like a father.
Backstory: Born in Niger to a half French father and a Hausan mother from an early age his brilliance was clear. His hair turned white when he turned 26 (a sign of that he was a superhuman immortal) and at age 28 he performed a drastic surgery on himself that made him into the scientific wonder he is today.
Other: He speaks with a slight French accent.

Huh, I've created a whole (yet small) "system" of superheroes and supervillains, but due to my drawing skills, I never realized this concept.
Still, the storyline exists in my head.
So maybe I'll just present only two such guys - the one that is most important for general plot, and the one that is my favourite.
Fire blast (never could find really catchy callsign for this one)
True name: Jacob Deckard
Classification: Elementalist
Occupation: Businessman
Personality: Deckard is calm and reserved person, with general charisma and tendency of analysing the problem before dealing with it. A perfect leader, not to be easily driven out of control, and an idealist.
History: Deckard was born in New York, in a family of people owning a small industrial company. His mother died on a disease, when Jacob was a child, and his father was later killed in car accident, at the time when Jacob was still a teenager. Depending on his own since then, he took the leadership of family company and proved his managment skills, developing it from a small firm to a large corporation worth billions of dollars.
At the age of 36, Deckard gained supernatural powers, discovering simultaneously, that he is a descendant of one of the members of The Order - organization of four elementalists, that long time ago found a sacred altar that held four crystals of elements. Retrieveing those gave them powers of controlling those elements, which marked the founding of The Order. Yet taking the artifacts from their sacred place caused the disbalance between our world, and the world of chaos, which resulted in the opening of an unholy gates, through which the forces of evil tried to invade our world. Not willing to bring back the crystals to the altar (and thus restore the balance their powers were maintaining), they took the responsibility to repel the evil attacks. They were also giving their powers and fighting skills to their descendants, continuing the existence of The Order through ages. This lasted to the XV century, when the first psionics began to appear. One of them, whose real name is today unknown, and who is better known as Kagar, was to be (supposedly) the most powerful psionic in history. Using his powers, members of The Order combined their forces with Kagar's, creating a powerful seal, locking the access for evil forces to our world (not before a few agents of evil - including the Fallen Ones and Blood Spirits - entering our reality before the gates were closed). This seal was based on Kagar's psionic energies and life force. However, at this time, Kagar was corrupted by evil and turned against The Order, trying to reopen the gates. Members of The Order struggled to stop him, and eventually managed to defeat Kagar. However, they were unable to destroy him (also because of the fact, that killing him would annihilate the seal he sustained), so they gave up their powers, exhausting them to create a prison, where Kagar would be held. They were aware, that this won't last forever, so they ensured the returning of the elemental powers to their descendants at the time Kagar would release from his prison.
Back to present time. Kagar, unfortunately, managed to break the powers keeping him at bay, which also resulted in four people around the world (including Deckard) gaining the powers of The Order. Deckard, as the three other chosen ones, began to use his powers for good, unaware of the danger at the side of Kagar.
Meanwhile, Kagar managed to corrupt three other elementalists, and began a quest for four crystals, hidden in the world. It lated appeared, that they were all sold to various people in New York as antiques.
This marked the beginning of the race between Jacob Deckard, and Kagar (the latter supported by other elementalists - Stone, Storm and Frost, as well as by man possessed by the Fallen One known as Azrael), both sides trying to gather the crystals before the other one does.
Soon, this conflict was joined by the third party - animorph called Lizzord - who began the search for crystals on his own (for purposes unknown - probably we wanted to use their powers to bring the humanity to its knees). Lizzord managed to gain three artifacts, exploiting the fact, that Deckard and Kagar (and the latter's allies) fought each other (however, he gained the second one, taking it away from Deckard after engaging him in a fight and defeating him). This, of course, brought the attention of the Kagar to the reptile, who was attacked by triple force - Storm, Azrael and Kagar himself (Stone and Frost were earlier killed by Deckard already). Although Deckard aided Lizzord in battle (killing Storm during it), they were both defeated and imprisoned in Kagar's hideout. After regaining consciousness in there, Deckard managed to release himself as well as Lizzord, and they both engaged Kagar and Azrael, who were already using all four crystals to open gates for the evil forces on the whole world. While Deckard finally managed to overcome Kagar, Lizzord engaged Azrael, defeating and killing him (by devouring his heart). The Kagar was beaten, but again not destroyed, and the crystals of elements, after the interruption of the creation of the gates, vanished again. Lizzord left, this time as Deckard's ally (also because of the fact, that his true identity was Tom Harrigan - leader of genetic division of Deckard's company and his good friend).
Since then, Jacob's powers began to diminish, so he was looking for replacement for him as the defender of New York. He found it in the person of Jonas Blake, who, with Deckard's aid, became new hero, called CyClone. He proved useful not only in guarding the city, but in stopping another corrupted psionic - James Anderson - from achieveing what Kagar was trying to achieve. He was aided by Deckard and Lizzord in his struggle. After that, Anderson (with only the remains of his former psionic powers) joined them as the Spectre (Lizzord, however, left the group).
Later there was another disturbance, this time caused by a band of vampires (people possessed by Blood Spirits), but Deckard, as he was very weak at that time, did not interfere into it directly. CyClone and Spectre were aided by she-vampire Regina Ekart, also known by her callsign Hekate.
After it, Kagar reemerged, trying to gather crystals of elements again. Without the aid of other elementalists (his allies this time were another Fallen One, Gideon, and corrupted psionic known as Ignatius Cartnay), he assumed the false identity of multi-millionaire and created an army of clone soldiers to aid him in his endavour.
Deckard did not interfere into the last clash with Kagar directly, until he imprisoned all heroes - CyClone, Spectre and Hekate - after they got into his secret base, and were defeated by him. Then Deckard (who regained part of his former powers at the time when Kagar reemerged), who was later aided surprisingly by Lizzord, took action himself, but he wasn't able to defeat Kagar. However, Lizzord helped him to free the imprisoned heroes, and kept Kagar busy (after killing Ignatius in the fight) while they were trying to drain the powers from the acquired crystals, not letting their force to be used for creating gates. Thus, CyClone, Spectre and Hekate became new elementalists, and, with their combined forces, managed to finally destroy Kagar himself. This, of course, broke the ancient seal, that was created by The Order long time ago - but the invasion of evil was prevented, as heroes gave up their powers, returning crystals to their sacred place.
Since then, Deckard, with limited powers, is a leader of the team of heroes.
POWERS AND ABILITIES
Strength level: superhuman, capable of lifting 5 tons.
Martial arts skills: excellent.
Special abilites: an ability to create and control fire. Various forms of flame attacks, including fireballs, explosive bombs, flame shield (using it, he is also capable of flying). His most powerful form of flame attack is the fire blast, a destructive strain of flame, that annihilates everything in its path. He is also capable of extunguishing fire, not only use it for destruction.
Resistances: limited invulnerability. Immune to fire.
Weaknesses: limited abilities in close combat. Limited resistance to physical attacks.
True name: Tom Harrigan (altered; original one unknown)
Classification: Animorph
Occupation: Genetic scientist
Personality: There are basically two independent personalities, capable of thinking reasonably and even confront (or simply conversate) each other.
The first one, is the personality of Tom Harrigan. A reserved scientist, shy and locked up in himself, misunderstood by surrounding people. Quiet and not outgoing, he feels best when he is alone, not disturbed by the others.
The second one, is the personality of Lizzord, a vile Lizardman that was accidentally created by Harrigan. Although highly intelligent, Lizzord is a cruel beast, with lust for blood, who get pure joy and satisfaction from killing and bloodshed (as well as eating the flesh of his victims). A psycho with sense of humour - very black one. He is also very proud, confident in his abilities, and sees all other creatures as inferior.
History: Tom Harrigan was born in Los Angeles, in a poor family. He graduated the studies of biology and genetics, and took a job in a large pharmaceutical company. He was a husband and father to two children.
In addition to his usual work for the company, Harrigan also led the research on his own, basing on the animal DNA. During his work, he created - among the others - a serum based on lizard's genetic code. One day, during an accident in his lab, the was cut by the broken test-tube, containing that serum, which got into his blood. During first week after this, there were no symptoms of the infection, so Harrigan believed nothing happened. Yet in the second week he became terribly ill, which forced him to stay at home for that time. In the last day of that week, he transmutated for the first time, turning into human-shaped, lizard-like monster, the Lizzord. This, however, happened when he was alone at home, and he kept this fact in secret (he also believed, at first, that it was only a dream, because he lost his consciousness then, and later woke up in his bed in fine condition. Yet he soon realized, that a new "person" was born inside him. A "person" that quickly began to develop his own consciousness, and planned on taking full control over Harrigan's body and mind.
This eventually happened one tragic day, when Harrigan, driven into state of madness by Lizzord, killed his wife along with children. After realising, what he has done, he fell into despair, and his mind became easy target for Lizzord, who took full control of him, transmutating his body into reptile form. He then left Harrigan's home.
The time when Harrigan was fully controlled by Lizzord, lasted for two years. The Lizzord learned about his life and the humanity, killing people regularly to indulge his lust for flesh (he even defeated two superheroes - Deathwing and Drake - that tried to stop him). Day by day, it was becoming more and more hard for him to keep Harrigan at bay. Tom finally regained his own consciousness during Lizzord's attack on a family with two children, which reminded Harrigan the death of his own wife and kids. Barely controlling the Lizzord, he set on a journey in an attempt to begin a new live. Assuming new name, by which he is now known, he finally got to New York, taking job there, and eventually beginning his new career in Deckard's company. He was quite quickly promoted there, due to his skills, and became the leader of genetic research division, as well as good friend of Deckard himself.
At the time, when Kagar reemerged, Lizzord came to voice again, beginning to temporarily control Harrigan and transforming into reptile. It was then, when he tried to gather the crystals of elements himself, but he eventually joined sides with Deckard, forging an alliance with him. At this time, also Harrigan and Lizzord were beginning to form a peace between themselves. Tom, knowing that Lizzord won't keep his bloodlust at bay for too long without an ability to kill someone, made a simple deal with the reptile, proposing him to find vent to his lust for killing by slaughtering the bad people instead of good ones. Namely, criminals.
Lizzord soon left New York (taking an arsenal of gadgets, that were designed by Deckard especially for him, to enhance his combat abilities) and moved to Chicago in order to fight the local mafia, and thus find an occupation for Lizzord, who was eager to kill (killing proved to be like a narcotic for him - it brought him joy and satisfaction). He even forged an alliance with local police officer, who served him as an informant. Lizzord successfully massacred whole mafia, including two humans - man and a woman - possessed by the Fallen Ones (named Diana and Gabriel). It remained unknown, why did the Fallen Ones decided to became a leaders of mafia.
After returning to New York, Lizzord joined the team of Deckard and CyClone, but was rather not a permanent member. After helping them by defeating rogue psionic James Anderson, he left again, moving to San Francisco and fighting local mafia (and finding another ally in the police again). The criminals, however, proved to be more dangerous enemies to the Lizzord, as they used reptile's blood, left by him at one of the places he appeared (and was shot), to create a biocyborg, made as Lizzord' evil twin. This cyborg was known as Blackclaw, and engaged Lizzord in few battles - for the first time while assisting the criminals in robbing the bank, but he left before the fight was finished. The second clash between Lizzord and Blackclaw took place in warehouses, and almost resulted in cyborg killing the reptile. Lizzord survived, however, and used weapons made for him by Deckard in the next battle, which occured in one of mafia's hideouts, at the time when Blackclaw started to rebel against his makers, killing all people in the hideout. Lizzord took the upper hand in the third fight, but was unable to destroy the Blackclaw, who eventually escaped. Most of Lizzords equipment was damaged or exhausted during the third fight, so he wasn't able to use it again to his advantage. But Harrigan intervened, creating a serum, that temporarily increased Lizzord's powers and aggresiveness (thus risking the loss of control over the beast). This gave Lizzord the advantage in the last clash with Blackclaw - reptile successfully defeated his, dismembered, and then threw parts of his body into acid, drowning it wholly.
After his victory, Lizzord returned to New York to aid Deckard in battle against Kagar again. Then he again left the team of heroes, to move to the Chicago again, when a new psionic, known as The Tamer, emerged. That psionic caused the transmutation of five people into animorphs (Lion, Tiger, Werewolf, Minotaur and Gorilla) and then took psychic control over them, when their animal sides were still not developed, as was their control over them. Lizzord found an ally in person of female police officer Crockett, who initially tried to find and arrest him (Lizzord saw her only as ally, but Harrigan fell into love with her). Because of the enemy advantage in numbers, Lizzord was unable to overcome Tamer with traditional methods. He drove the animorphs away from their master, and then attacked him directly. Then he discovered, that Tiger and Werewolf were still protecting Tamer, which led to a fight, that Lizzord hardly won (not without discovering, that Crockett was kidnapped by his enemies for blackmailing him - as it didn't stop the Lizzord from attacking, hostage was killed, and Harrigan mourned her). Infected with Werewolf's saliva, Lizzord was also forced to repel the Tamer's psychic attacks, who tried to control him. The psionic did not succed, however, and was killed.
Later Lizzord rejoined and left Deckard's team various times, e.g. fighting Minotaur (and later Werewolf), who gained control over his human self and proved to be powerful enemy for Lizzord (his abilities were earlier limited by Tamer's influence) due to his superior physical strength.
POWERS AND ABILITIES
Strenth level: superhuman, capable of lifting 10 tons
Martial arts skills: archmaster, unbeatable close combat fighter, employing his own sophisticated fighting style.
Special abilities: superhuman strength and unmatched reflexes (capable even of dodging bullets). Instant regeneration skills, healing wounds in matter of seconds (making him impossible to kill by most weapons). Capable of spitting acid (like a snake, spitting with poison) from glands in his mouth, at short distance.
He can also arm himself with an arsenal of weapons and gadgets given to him by Deckard (including two wristblades, lance, harpoon thrower, breast plate for protection, explosive charges, and synthetic, organic "fuel", perfectly sustaining his regenerative abilities).
Resistances: regeneration mentioned above. Limited invulnerability. Immunity to psychic attacks of any sort or mind control (due to the existence of two developed personalities - one takes the attack, the other functions normally).
Weaknesses: uneffective in combat at distance. His regeneration is limited and relies on the food he has consumed (flesh is the best "fuel"). When angried, he may enter frenzy, losing control of himself and making him dangerous even for allies.

Physical Description: 6’4”, 195 lbs. She has short black hair that she wears into a pixie cut, wild brown eyes, and creamy brown skin. She has a well-muscled physique and ample body curves. Her full lips are often red but she uses no lipstick, the color is derived from dried human blood.
She wears a black body suit similar to her Earth 1991 counterpart Avenger except it is sleeker and more evocative of a demon than a vigilante. Instead of a cowl and cape she wears a featureless black mask with two eye slits and an opening at the mouth to allow her use of her teeth in combat (and after combat) with a sheet of black cloth connected to her arms and shoulders (like the flaps of a flying squirrel).
Her skin is covered with deep scars and scratches both from injuries sustained in combat and self-infliction.
Powers: Luminal absorption and excellent natural night vision. Like Avenger her physical stats are heightened by absorbing ambient light. A side-effect of her power is that she appears as a mass of living, undulating darkness and her immediate surroundings are darkened considerably similar to a night under a new moon.
Strength Level: Base Level: Peak, Max: Class 3
Skills/Attributes: The Shade is every bit the equal of her Earth 1991 counterpart Avenger except whereas Avenger generally holds back against all but the strongest of foes the Shade is a merciless and brutal fighter who’s vicious and chaotic style can overwhelm even the most skilled of fighters. Like Avenger the Shade is a cunning fighter and one of the most intelligent persons on her planet (also like Avenger she does a good job of disguising this fact).
Alignment: Chaotic Evil
Personality: Lupita is in many ways a twisted caricature of Avenger with many of the same quirks and faults elevated to extreme degrees. Whereas Avenger is promiscuous the Shade is outright perverse and sexually possessive. Where Avenger is comfortable with a little grime the Shade revels in the smell of rotted meat and dried blood that hangs over her. The Shade delights in murder and mayhem but her favorite not-so-guilty pleasure is the consumption of raw human flesh, preferably from a living ‘donor’.
Equipment: The Shade wears a skin-tight black duralex costume that offers respectable protection from extreme temperatures as well as bladed weapons. On her boots are a pair of retractable blades dipped in a neurotoxin and on her gloves are a set of steel claws that she uses to rend flesh and carve up her ‘dinner’ after making a kill.
Backstory: Little is known of her history except that at a certain point she was exposed to the Archon toxin. The toxin gave her superpowers but took her sanity and within a few years time she became the world’s most feared supervillain. Somewhere along the line she developed a taste for human flesh (fresh is better) and added cannibalism to her already long list of crimes.
According to Mr. Magnificent the Shade is responsible for the rape, murder, and butchering (and the partial consumption of) nearly ten thousand people over a twenty year period.
Other: She tried cooking human meat once, she didn’t like it.

-A Grave Epitaph in Santa Rosa County, Florida; I wish I could remember the man's name.
A villain who's a hybrid of sorts of the Kingpin and Doomsday:
Name: Marcellus Prince (Demon/”Big Daddy D”)
Age: 42 (Mental Age 32)
Gender: Male
Species: Mutant (failed artificial Superhuman)
Physical Description: 22’, 2,320 lbs. The original Demon’s ‘face’ is a horrific caricature of humanity with a massive under-bite with two prominent tusks protruding from his lower jaw and a series of jagged hook like teeth (in multiple rows, like a shark) lining his gums. He has no hair and no visible nose or ears (save two small holes on the sides of his head) but he does possess a pair of beady black eyes that look like rocks of coal sunk into a pile of red meat. Demon appears red because the surface of his body is in fact swelled and malformed muscle tissue. This is due to the fact that early in his transformation his skin broke apart and peeled off due to the uncontrolled expansion of his muscle mass. His arms and upper torso are much larger than his lower body and as a result he tends to walk on his knuckles like a gorilla. On both his hands and his feet he has vicious black talons and his crooked spine (which is visible through his back) is lined with similar black spines. On his shoulders, chest, and back little red tendrils have sprouted which serve no identifiable practical purpose but which lend him an even more monstrous appearance.
After consuming Slum Lord Marcellus Prince and taking on the late criminal’s memories and thought patterns Demon took on a more humanoid appearance: slicking back his head tendrils in such a way as to mimic human hair, straightening out his posture (and in doing so gained a few feet), and putting himself in a custom-made suit consisting of a large black blazer, a pair of gray pleated slacks, a crimson undershirt, and a blood red tie. He also wears a number of oversized gold rings around his fingers and a large platinum chain around his neck.
Powers: Superhuman strength, durability, and seemingly limitless stamina. His reaction time and his natural speed are also superhuman to the point that he can react to (and tag) beings as fast as Jade Empress. Though his durability is rather impressive his healing factor (and tenacity) is what make him the threat that he is today. He can regenerate entire limbs in seconds and can even regenerate from total destruction so long as a single cell is left (though such regeneration takes a while). The biological feature that grants him his healing factor also grants him his ability to adapt around menaces that have hurt or killed him in the past. The reason for this is that his body is in fact a mass of cancer-like mutative cells that are constantly replicating and disintegrating and only those cells which can survive can pass on their ‘instructions’ to the creation of future cells. In effect this is a microscopic rendition of natural selection and it allows Demon to do such things as to adapt around extreme temperatures and even adapt beyond the need for oxygen. Demon has also shown in the past the ability to stretch his body to apprehend an opponent from across great distances limited only by the amount of mass in his body.
Strength Level: Class 100+ (Virtually limitless)
Skills/Attributes: Inheriting the skills and intelligence of the ruthless criminal Marcellus Prince, Demon is a skilled brawler as well as a shrewd criminal mastermind.
Alignment: Neutral Evil
Personality: Originally a mindless beast, after absorbing the personality of Marcellus Prince. Marcellus was a ruthless person who ruled his criminal enterprise through intimidation tactics. As Big Daddy D he now secludes himself in his dimly lit subterranean headquarters in downtown Atlanta, surrounded by his inner circle of subservient crime bosses and a cavalcade of scantily clad female ‘personal assistants’. No longer nursing an inferiority complex from his childhood he is amicable, even friendly to those who work under him but to those who cross him he is spiteful and cruel. He enjoys tormenting the superhero the Guardian who (as Marcellus Prince in his younger years) he used to bully when they lived in the same neighborhood in Atlanta.
Equipment: None.
Backstory: Ryan Agnew’s history prior to his kidnapping is mostly a mystery though it is believed at some point a dandelion flower played an important part in his life. In the early 1990’s he was kidnapped off the streets by an as yet unknown sector of the US Government for ‘important research’. Ryan was examined by a team of top scientists (including a young Sir John Talbot) until it was deemed that his biochemistry was suitable for the application of the serum they had created. The goal was to create a super-soldier on par with the greatest of superheroes and at first it appeared they succeeded. Within day Ryan’s strength began to increase geometrically and then exponentially along with his stamina and resiliency. But soon it became apparent that something had gone horribly wrong. He started to mutate and grow uncontrollably and his cognitive faculties grew dimmer as a bestial rage took hold of him. The scientists’ best attempts at holding him proved futile and Demon began his first rampage through the streets of Los Angeles until he was stopped by the hero Avenger and her allies. The years passed and time after time Demon would reemerge in a different part of the world and after a hard fought battle would be put down once more. That all seemingly changed during the Second Mister Magnificent Crisis when the temporarily rampant superhero utterly vaporized Demon in the Austrian Alps, seemingly ending the beast forever. But a few months passed and Demon reemerged, this time displaying an unusually well developed understanding of his surroundings. Some would even go so far as to suggest that he had regained his sentience. Later Demon consumed a powerful slum-lord and gained the man’s memories and drives. Now the master of virtually all organized crime in North America he is a force that even Supervillains such as the Polar-Man must respect.
Other: Big Daddy D talks with a rumbling, gravelly voice that carries a slight suggestion of his original ‘urban’ accent and usually punctuates his sentences with a rough chuckle.

-A Grave Epitaph in Santa Rosa County, Florida; I wish I could remember the man's name.
Gender: Unspecified Location: Philadelphia, PA, USA
Hero Name: Puff-Boy
Powers: Can generate giant clouds of smoke.
Weaknesses: Contact with any plant or tree will severely weaken him.
Costume Colors: Black, white, and gray
Anti-Hero: Pretty much everyone views him as an anti-hero because his constant generation of pollution.
Race: Hispanic
Real Name: Ricardo H.G. Goméz
His biography: His dad worked at a steel mill, where Ricardo went while skipping school, but accidentally slipped into a molten steel vat that had, unknowingly, been irradiated by a waste-barrel that had fallen into the vat a week earlier. He sizzled and screamed in the vat, but eventually, to the steel workers' amazement, vanished in a puff of smoke. He then appeared before God who tasked him with using his powers to "save the planet".
High-School: He never got that far in his education, since no school would let him in as he kept filling everywhere with smoke.
(This is basically my attempt at "What would I Dream of Jeannie be like if it were written today, in our world of Youtube, ecological disaster and 9-11?" )
Name: EnerGenie
Real Name: Stacy Walton
Origin: Stacy was at an alternative energy expo where an experimental demonstration of what was advertised as a new, unlimited source of non-polluting energy was being held. Unfortunately, the equipment malfunctioned and the energy ran wild. Stacy was standing too close at the time and absorbed all the energy into herself, becoming godlike.
Powers: As the EnerGenie, Stacy can control all energy and matter within a radius of 1,392,000 km (the size of the sun!). Basically, she's got the Phoenix/Solar powerset, with maybe some I Dream of Jeannie thrown in. (OK, so she's not the most original of characters... ) She also has limited telepathy, able to read and sense minds as well as communicate with them (no mind control).
Weaknesses: As already mentioned, the EnerGenie can only affect physical reality; no affecting free will (and she's moral enough not to want to). She can be hurt or disrupted by a powerful enough blast of energy, and can be affected by magic. She is also rather emotionally dependent on her boyfriend/"master" Randy Mitchell.
Personality: The emotional attachment to Randy is not only born of romance/love/lust; she needs it as a reason to stay grounded and "human." Or as she puts it, "You know those Star Trek episodes where they run into someone with godlike powers, and they turn out to be a [CENSORED]? I'm trying to avoid that." She's also quite heroic (or at least well-intended), and always tries to do the right thing.
Costume: Her "superhero" mode is a shapely, beautiful young woman made of fire. She is capable of taking on more human-like forms, like a harem dancer or her "normal" self (that of a redhead college kid).
Supporting cast:
Randy Mitchell: Stacy's boyfriend. He sympathizes with her and her "wish-granting slave-djinn" act, although he's too nice to actually take advantage of her. (Not that he complained when she first showed up dressed in a harem outfit and started belly-dancing for him! In fact, it was that stunt that prompted him to call her the EnerGenie in a later attempt at superherodom.)
Arthur Walton: Stacy's father, a wealthy Big Oil executive. Not exactly evil, but a cynical workaholic. (But mess with Stacy, or even Randy, and he'll be tempted to hire a hitman!)
Dr. Khalid: The chief scientist behind the experimental reactor that caused Stacy's transformation.
Senator Thornton: A politician who's backed by Big Oil.
General Stockmeyer: A gung-ho militant who gets 9-11 vibes from Khalid.
Kaufman: A crimelord who tries to have Randy and the Energenie killed (despite Randy's pleas that "We don't even fight crime! We're not vigilantes! We specialize in disaster relief!").

"Ron" (Hieronymus) Ash is recently divorced, a teacher, and is one night visited by an artifact from the stars. If he accepts a unique job offer, he will gradually acquire an open powerset by developing his "implicate will": the faculty of will extended past the skin and able to influence quantum wavefunctions.
Origin(?) chronicled in "22", in Tales of the Talisman, summer 2009 issue.
