So is there any warrior like characters who she could work together with?


I'm assuming you mean Wonder Woman. For the moment, there aren't any warrior characters, but when there are, you should take it up with their players.

Doesn't just about all of the master-tier human martial artists count as warriors?

Cuz I count four so far.

I suppose so, but I was thinking more of characters like... Well, Wonder Woman. And Aquaman. You know, swords/tridents sort of people.

Just putting this here. Working on more backstory and such. I basically reused my old DCU sheet.

Clark Kent or...


Superman
The Man of Steel


Age: 27
Powers/Abilities:
    Superhuman Strength given to him but the sun's radiation. Superman is able to pick up and toss just about any on planet Earth.
    Limited invulnerability, small weapons fire and punches from regular humans do hardly any damage. Superman cannot take a round from a tank or stop a speeding train without getting hurt for example. Also if another superhuman with super strength hits him it will hurt.
    Solar healing factor. When on a planet with a yellow or other wise young star, Superman can heal extremely quickly.
    Superman can run extremely fast and jump impossibly high, he also has the ability to fly faster than a speeding bullet.
    Super breath, heat vision.
    X-ray Vision is completely operational for our young Superman. Let's just say he figured that one out as a teenager. He is also able to see EM frequencies and microscopic particles/organisms with the naked eye.
    He also has a heightened sense of smell and hearing.
    Fighting for Superman has been heightened. He has knowledge of ancient Krytptonian forms of martial arts and has even been trained by Batman in situations where Clark did not have his powers.
    Superman has two invincible Kryptonian Battlesuits and his cape which is itself invincible.


Weaknesses:
Kryptonite weakens Superman by blocking his ability to use his powers. These chunks of his home planet trick his body into thinking he is on Krypton essentially making him feel human. Walking into a room of Kryptonite will not kill Superman but he will find it hard to function as he will feel like a human which compared to how he usually is means extremely weak. Getting stabbed or shot by a piece of Kryptonite will also block his healing factor making it extremely dangerous. This is the only way Superman could bleed out or die of wounds. The same effect can be achieved when Superman is on a planet with a red or similarly old star. Being on such planets will make him completely unable to use any of his powers and he will be just like a normal human. The amount of gravity on a planet affects his ability to jump and fly. Earth is normal gravity and he is able to fly normally. Put him on the moon or in space and his flying abilities are enhanced but put him on a world with high gravity and it will be hampered. In very very rare cases gravity will make him unable to fly. Of course a red star would make this true as well.
Clark is also weak when it comes to magic as it effects him in the same way it effects most people. Superman's powers are biological not magical so he is susceptible to many forms of magic. In fact using magic against the Man of Steel is the second most effective way of fighting him behind using Kryptonite.

Backstory/Orgins: The last son of Krypton, Kal-El was born to the foremost scientist on the planet of Krypton Jor-El and his wife Lara. As an infant, Kal's father discovered that in a few short months Krypton would be destroyed. Jor-El spent months trying to convince the Kryptonian government to evacuate the planet however they were distracted by the uprising of General Zod the foremost military leader of Krypton. Ignored by the government, Jor-El began constructing prototype spacecrafts capable of bringing his family to a new home. Time ran out however and as the planet destroyed itself killing billions, Jor made sure his son would escape by placing him in the only working stasis pod in working condition. Jor programmed the ships Braniac computer to target worlds with yellow suns and low gravity knowing that it would make his son a god among men. The planet was destroyed and the only surviving pieces of it became known as Kryptonite.

Years ago Kal's pod crashed in Smallville, Kansas where he was found and adopted by the Kent family. Renamed ClarkKent, he was raised as a farmer and taught good morals at a young age. The only thing remaining from his Kryptonian heritage was a red cape with a black El family crest on the back. As a young child he often used it as a blanket. It wasn't until the age of ten when Clark's parents told him of how they found him after he had shot lasers out of his eyes for the first time. They told him that they had no idea where he was from but they knew his real parents must have sent him to Earth for a reason. Clark's father then explained to him that his powers were only to be used for good. Growing up Clark was bullied at his local elementary school but never raised a hand at his attackers saying that his parents taught him to never "punch down." During this time, Clark began to discover his powers. At the age of 11, he saved a bus load full of kids from drowning by pulling it out of the water during a school field trip.

During his freshman year in high school, Clark fell in love with his childhood best friend, Lana Lang. Despite his nerdy personality and what some would consider a naive viewpoint of the world, the two began dating. They stayed together all throughout high school but eventually grew apart when they attended college states away from each other. To this day, Lana is the only other person besides Clark's parents that knows about his powers.

In college Clark was room mates with a rich young man named James Olsen. The two quickly became best friends though Clark kept his powers hidden. Jimmy majored in photography and Clark in journalism where he met Lois Lane. She became the third part of the trio and throughout college the three became extremely close. Eventually Clark began to have feelings for Lois but never acted upon them because of his plans to reveal himself to the world after college.

During college, Clark practiced his abilities. He honed his speed and agility as well as his super sight/hearing. He never quite mastered flying or heat vision during this time but has become adept enough to use these abilities to his advantage.

After the trio graduated, they moved to Metropolis together. Jimmy's parents bought them a large three bedroom apartment in the city where the three live together. Within a week, they all got jobs at the Daily Planet. The newspaper had recently been bought by billionaire Morgan Edge and was having a new building being constructed.

After settling into his job and new home for a month, he disguised himself and went to a local clothing shop. He had 100 t-shirts printed with the 'S' logo from his cape on the torso and begins his career.

I'll have her team up with Aquaman if Sam's okay with that. Maybe Swamp Thing and Green Arrow could join as well.

...Oh right, I seem to have forgotten to post here. ^^;

Anyways, there's been problems with writing up Captain (Mary) Marvel so I'm putting her on the backburner for now. However, I've been discussing stuff with Dblade and so I might be making a Batgirl to go alongside his Batman (most likely Cassie as she seems to fit the reimagined Batman the best), but we'll see how that turns out.

Sounds good to me!

@Vandy, looks good so far.

Sound plan, mate. But for now, let's focus on completing our CS's, yeah? Also, Hawkman's not in the Justice League because, to be completely honest, I forgot about him. Whoops...

Besides, it was either that or make a quip about Hawkman's fractured continuity or his political leanings, and that felt in better taste. XD ...Also because DCAU!Hawkgirl had one of the best catchphrases ever so yeah.

I like Hawkman more because I think superheroes need diverse political views. He's one of the few authoritarian heroes out there.
