I know it’s a little cringe sometimes, but let people RP what they want.

Bio

Gay, he/him, Autistic

I’m Crimson Flame and I’m addicted to RPing. But sometimes ADHD kicks in, and it takes me longer to reply to things than it should. If I’m taking too long to respond, feel free to say something. Just don’t be rude about it.

There are a bunch of RPs I like. Pokémon, Digimon, Fantasy, Superhero, it would take too long to list them all. I’m not a fan of Horror or Apocalypse settings though.

I have a particular type of character I like making. Look through my Character Sheet thread, and see if you notice what a lot of my characters have in common.

Works for me.

I’m in that age group. Lol.

I see middle age, and think 40s. xD
I might be interested…

How old you mean when you say middle age?
Being part plant, Pine could get by on very little sleep. That did not make the loud noises any less obnoxious.

As the disruptive noise echoed through the hallways, jolting Pine awake, he groaned and rubbed his eyes. The thin walls of his room did little to muffle Sabriel’s shouting. Pine sat up in bed, his hair tousled and his expression a mixture of annoyance and fatigue. “Ugh, not again,” he muttered to himself, pushing the covers aside and swinging his legs over the edge of the bed.

With a sigh, Pine got out of his bed and made his way to the door. As he stepped out into the hallway, he could hear the guards already attempting to intervene, but he knew from experience that Sabriel was not easily deterred.

Running a hand through his hair, Pine approached the scene. He glanced at the guards, nodding in their direction, before focusing his attention on Sabriel.

“Sabriel, do you have any idea what time it is?” Pine called out, his voice carrying a hint of irritation. “You couldn’t have at least waited for the sun to be up?”
Another person finally!


Milo vehemently denied touching an Ursa Minor. Chesi narrowed her eyes. She would accept that for the time being, but she still thought this kid was strange. “I’m watching you…”

Conner wasn’t paying attention to his dolphin companion call out Milo. He was busy studying David. He gets wings, he gets a cool sword, and no struggle with magic at all. David always gets everything. It wasn’t fair.

“Yeah, I hate Denali.” Chesi whispered. “She thinks she’s so holy because she controls the element of light. She’s a self righteous bitch if you ask me.”

An annoyed expression crossed Conner’s features. “I guess… But don’t worry about her. You’ve got me. We’ll show both of them what real power looks like!”

“Both of them? Is somebody jealous?” Chesi teased.

Conner rolled his eyes. “No… I just want to prove myself. That’s all…”

In the background, both Eli and Noah hadn’t transformed. In fact, Noah threw his little dragon friend at the bears face. That didn’t help at all.

“Guess it’s up to me…” Conner muttered. He raised his arm with the trident in his hand, and thought of a happier memory. He thought about surfing on the beach, riding the waves. Instantly, a wave of water appeared beneath him. Conner rode the wave. “Surfs up dudes!”

While riding the wave, he heard Eli shouting to aim for the snout. Conner aimed the tip of his trident directly at the bear’s snout.

The wave crashed into the bear with incredible force, sending it stumbling backward with a loud roar of pain.

As the wave subsided and the Ursa Major lay stunned on the ground, Conner hopped off, and landed gracefully. He proudly raised his trident high. “Tridents are better than swords, eh Davey?” He gloated.

“Yes yes, that was very nice.” Chesi said. “Although, you need a little more control. You could have caused a lot of collateral damage. I’m sure some of your friends got wet from that attack.”

Conner rubbed the back of his head and laughed sheepishly.

You’ll never be good enough. Conner heard in his head. He raised an eyebrow, wondering where that voice was coming from, but no one responded, so Conner shook it off.

“Alright, most of you did well…” Chesi declared, glaring at Noah and Eli who didn’t transform. “But you all have a lot to learn if you want to have any hope of saving our realm, and getting back to yours.”

She then looked at the unconscious Ursa Major. “It’s such a shame. Ursa Major are usually gentle creatures. Guardians of Celestial balance in our world. The only thing that would drive them to violence would be their young being threatened… or they have been corrupted by a dark force… That is the threat you face children. A dark entity has been unleashed, and threatens to consume and corrupt the magic of this realm. This corruption is spreading throughout Arcanum, endangering not only it’s inhabitants but the very fabric of magic that sustains us. The darkness has likely corrupted this poor creature… It has the ability to corrupt beings by amplifying their darkest tendencies and desires, bringing out the worst parts of themselves. Beings under the influence of this corruption act in ways that are harmful to themselves and others. I implore all of you to be on your guard, and don’t give in to temptation.”

But Conner wasn’t listening. He was still hearing that damn voice in his head. You’re only a burden to them. They don’t care about you at all.

“Anyway, I think it’s time we take you lot into the city.”


And



Viktor said something about one team being the infiltration squad, and one team being the distraction squad. Zach was quick to volunteer to be on the distraction squad. “Distractions are my specialty! I’m sure me and Lightning Lass over there can give them a show they won’t forget!” Zach said, gesturing to Cora.

”Yeah, I think we can.” Behind her helmet, Cora grinned at the prospect of some super powered mischief. ”What’re we thinkin’ magic tornado? Thunderstorm? Maybe you make some magic portals and I throw lightning bolts through ‘em?”

Zach’s eyes went wide with excitement. “All of it! Throw everything we got! It’ll be so epic, these goons won’t know what hit ‘em! Etativel” He started hovering in the air, and waving his wand in circles. “Mrots cigam!” Purple storm clouds started to gather, and bolts of purple magic started to strike the ground.

”Oooohhhh yeah. Just watch your eyes, wizard boy.” Cora took a running start and leapt off the ground, propelled into the sky once more by her powers. She weaves through the storm clouds made by Zach’s magic. The lightning strikes didn’t scare her- after all, nothing but her own powers could electrocute her. So in the chaos of the storm, and began to rain down her own bolts of vibrant, neon teal lightning.

The concussive sounds of thunder and the blinding bursts of metahuman lightning lit the swamp up like a Christmas tree.

Zach started laughing like a madman as the goons standing guard outside were panicking at the chaos that was unfolding. “Congratulations lovely people. You get a private spectacle from Zatara the Great and his assistant Stormcaller. Lucky you!”

Cora wasn’t aiming for anything in particular, since if she did, it might give the goons a chance to triangulate where she was through the clouds. Rather, she just floated to and from one cloud to the next, raining them down indiscriminately along the walkways they were using to stay dry. They could take a shot, but they’d risk being too immobile to get blasted.

Zach however did take a shot. He made no attempts to stay hidden, and fired blobs of purple magic at goons that came his way. “Aw… is that…the best you got?” Zach taunted in between gasps for breath. Doing this magical hurricane was taking a lot of magic, and it was taking it’s toll. He started getting red in the face.
With a few minutes left until midnight, Danny ran back to meet up with MJ. “Where have you been?” MJ exclaimed as if he didn’t already know Danny was Spider-Man. “I got a picture with Spider-Woman!” He said as he showed Danny his phone.

Danny rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. “Um… running in fear…” Danny lied. “I’m not going to stick around with some maniac on the loose…” Danny’s heart raced as he tried to maintain his composure under MJ’s scrutinizing gaze. He knew he wasn’t the best liar, especially when it came to MJ.

MJ raised an eyebrow.

“Really? Running from a maniac? This coming from the same guy that took on Skyler?” MJ said.

Danny shifted uncomfortably, searching for a convincing excuse. “Well, you know, I just didn’t want to risk getting hurt, you know? I mean, I’m no superhero like the Spiders... Speaking of which, that’s a cool picture you got there.”

MJ continued to study him for a moment before letting out a small chuckle. “Alright, Danny. I won’t push it. Let’s just enjoy the countdown and the fireworks, okay?”

Danny breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded eagerly. “Yeah, sounds good.”

As clock counted down, the boys eagerly awaited for midnight. When it came, there was much celebration. There was fireworks and confetti.

Danny nervously asked MJ if he could have a New Years kiss.

MJ smiled apologetically. “Danny, you’re sweet, and I like you, but I don’t want you to get the wrong idea. I’m not ready for that kind of relationship right now.”

Danny's heart sank at MJ's response, but he tried to mask his disappointment with a forced smile. "No worries, MJ. I understand." he replied, attempting to sound casual.

MJ placed a comforting hand on Danny's shoulder. "I hope you're not too disappointed. You're a great guy, Danny. It's just... I'm not looking for anything serious right now."

Danny nodded. "Yeah, I get it. No hard feelings." He wanted to be understanding, but MJ was quick to kiss Spider-Man, but Danny gets rejected. Just another reminder that Spider-Man is cool, but Danny Davis is a loser.

MJ, sensing Danny’s disappointment, did his best to help. “Listen, you’re really cute and sweet. You should go out and see other people, live your best life.” MJ suggested. “Any guy would be lucky to have you! And maybe one day, I’ll be ready.” He winked.

Danny managed a small smile, though his heart still felt heavy with disappointment. “Thanks, MJ. I appreciate it.” he said, trying to sound grateful for the encouragement.

As they continued to watch the fireworks, Danny couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy as he saw couples around them sharing kisses and embracing in the New Year’s celebration. He wished things could be different between him and MJ, but he knew he had to respect his friend’s boundaries.

As the festivities continued, Danny did his best to enjoy the rest of the evening with MJ and their friends, putting aside his feelings of inadequacy and focusing on the fun of the New Year’s celebration. Deep down, though, he couldn’t shake the sense of longing and disappointmet. wondering if he would ever find someone who would reciprocate his feelings.

But for now, he decided to take MJ’s advice and focus on living his best life, knowing that someday, he might meet someone who would appreciate him for who he was.

——

As Spider-Man swung through the city, his senses alert for any signs of trouble, he spotted a massive pile of sand, wreaking havoc with destructive intent.

Without hesitation, Spider-Man swooped down, landing in front the movinf. “Hey, hey! What’s going on?” he called out.

The Sand reformed into a human. “Stay out of this, Spider-Man! This is between me and Norman Osborn!” He growled.

Spider-Man’s eyes widened. “Norman Osborn? What did he do?” He asked with genuine concern.

“He lied to me, Spider-Man! He promised he had a cure for my daughter’s leukemia, but it was all a trick. He’s responsible for what happened to me, and now he’s going to pay.” The man started to become sandy again.

Spider-Man sighed. He really felt for the guy. He was also surprised that Norman Osborn would do something like that. I mean, he knew he wasn’t the best father, but this?

“I know you’re hurting, but this isn’t the answer.” Danny insisted. “We can find another way to hold Osborn accountable, together. But first, we need to stop this before anyone else gets hurt.”

The man hesitated. After a tense moment, he slowly began to stand down, his sandy form starting to solidify.

“Okay, Spider-Man. You win.” The Sandman conceded. [color=C2B280“But mark my words, Osborn won’t get away with what he’s done.”[/color]

Spider-Man nodded. “We’ll find a way to make him answer for his crimes. But for now, let’s focus on helping your daughter.”

And then, as if on cue, Norman came out, surrounded by a bunch of armed officers. “Thank you Spider-Man, that will be all.” He said as the officers apprehended the Sandman.

Danny was stunned silent. He managed to talk the guy down from killing Norman Osborn, and he gets arrested anyway. It wasn’t fair. How was he going to look Mr. Osborn in the eye when Danny Davis reports for internship with him. Even worse, how was he going to tell Harry?
@Sanity43217 Possibly, I'm waiting on another player to see if they're still in, but even if they are still looking to play, I might be willing to accept another player since I'm already at 5+ jdsvajsbsjnx


If that player is me, I’m still in. I’m almost done!

Edit: Done. 😮‍💨
Name: Daniel “Danny” Davis
Alias: Spider-Man
Age: 16 (Birthday June 10th)
Gender: Male



Appearance: Danny is a tall and lean young man. He stands at exactly six feet tall. He has a bit of a baby face that he has been teased about. Marked by a round face, large expressive blue eyes, and a small nose. These features give him a rather youthful appearance. He keeps his blonde hair short and spiky. His build is slim and wiry. Since gaining Spider Powers, he gained some muscle definition, including abs. He has a fair skin complexion. Some people have called him cute, but Danny gets embarrassed when people talk about him like that.

Danny doesn't really have much in the way of fashion sense. He dresses how he thinks looks cool. His wardrobe mostly consists mostly of T-shirts, jeans, and sneakers. He always wears pink and purple, his favorite colors. No matter what anyone says, he won’t change that. He currently wears a pink T-shirt with a short sleeved pink and white jacket over it, a pair of purple jeans, and purple and white high top sneakers. He to need glasses for near sightedness. However gaining spider powers corrected his vision. Now he wears non prescription lenses for the aesthetic. He feels naked without glasses.

Danny’s costume is a pink and purple body suit that covers him from head to toe, including his face. It is skintight and made of spandex or something similar. His gloves, boots, mid-section, and mask are pink, the rest of it is purple. Danny designed a web pattern that covers the pink portions of the suit, starting at the mask. The suit also has a black spider in the center of the chest and a larger pink spider on the back, both of different designs. The mask has plastic lenses with a chrome covering that allow Danny to see out, without letting others see in. The lenses also protect Danny’s eyes from dust particles and the glare of the sun while he is swinging through the city. In addition, the mask helps to conceal Danny’s identity by muffling his voice, thus making it unrecognizable to others. He also wears a twin set of web shooters on his wrists under the gloves. A web cartridge belt is also worn under the suit, which has a spider-signal on the buckle.

Personality: Danny is something of a shy introvert. The fact that he was bullied a lot did not help matters. He prefers to keep to himself, only really feeling comfortable around his sister, and his small friend group. He tries hard to be friendly, if only to get people to like him so he won’t be bullied anymore, but a lot of the times ends up just being awkward. He usually perks up when the conversation goes in a direction he’s interested in. When he’s interested in the subject matter, then he keeps talking and talking.

He gets nervous very easily. He really wants to be brave and cool, but he finds being that kind of person difficult. He’s very shy and self conscious, and doesn’t think very highly of himself. He gets particularly nervous around guys he happens to find attractive. At that point, he starts stammering. He’s not good at flirting.

He’s in many ways a complete geek. He loves science, reads a lot, loves computers and the Internet, enjoys playing video games. He also likes cute things, and the color pink. He has a small collection of plushies and dolls at home. It was something he was bullied for in the past. He’s not very good at sports either. That has since changed since gaining Spider powers.

While wearing the Spider-Man costume, Danny is a lot less inhibited. He flirts with attractive guys, he makes jokes and has witty banter with foes, and is much more outgoing. Generally Spider-Man is a lot more confident than Danny

History: David and Denise Davis were a happily married couple who longed for children of their own. They tried many times, but it always resulted in failure. Finally, after years of trying, Denise successfully carried a pregnancy to term. They were expecting a son, but were shocked when a girl came out, followed by the son they were expecting shortly thereafter. The Davises had been blessed with twins!

Danny Davis was born in Queens New York. Growing up, Danny has always been good at academics. He was intelligent, and did very well in school. His favorite subject to study are the sciences (chemistry, physics, biology, etc) He joined the school’s science club, and often performed experiments at home in his free time with his sister. However, he was also introverted and quiet and did not do well socially. He was often picked on by other kids because of it. Not helping the matter was the fact that he liked the color pink as well cute things, and other stuff that was stereotypically girly. He preferred to play with Barbies and stuffed animals while other boys liked playing with Hot Wheels and Football. He also wasn’t very good at sports. While he had a supportive family at home, he had a difficult time making friends at school.

His most consistent bully is a boy named Skyler. At one point, Danny had a crush on him. Danny worked up the nerve to confess his feelings. Of course, those feelings were not mutual. Skyler laughed in his face, and outed him to the whole school. It was embarrassing, and made going to school much more difficult. Now Skyler picked on him regularly. Things often escalated to violence for trivial reasons, like if he got a better grade than him on an exam. His sister Caty did what she could to help, but that often made things worse. He wanted to be cool, brave, and popular, like the superheroes he reads about, or his own sister. No matter how hard he tries, he always has trouble pulling it off.

Things changed after one fateful school trip to Oscorp. Then, everything changed when we took a field trip to Oscorp. Danny was fascinated by the work they were doing. He paid very close attention to everything. Then came the discussion of the genetically modified spiders. Danny was still interested, but still found spiders to be creepy. Then one of the spiders got out. Danny wanted to get out of there with everyone else, but Caty stayed behind to look for it, and Danny stayed behind to make sure Caty was ok.

Caty did in fact find the spider. It bit her first, then flung it away and it bit Danny. Danny didn’t feel too good after that, and when he got home, He passed out.

Things got weird the next day. First, he woke up and put on his glasses and his vision was blurry. He took off his glasses, and his vision was clear. Weird, a person’s vision doesn’t suddenly improve overnight. Then, he went to get dressed, and saw his reflection in the mirror. He was still slender, but he had grown some muscle, including abs. Ok, that was nice, but definitely weird. His sister had also demonstrated the ability to stick to walls, and communicate with spiders. They both came to the conclusion that they had gained the abilities of a spider

After spending some time flexing his newfound muscles in the mirror, he had to go to school. Skyler was up to his usual shenanigans. Skyler tried to punch him. That wouldn’t happen this time. He felt a tingling sensation before he reflexively slid out of the way. It didn’t take long for a fight to break out. Skyler tried to punch him, and somehow Danny was able to dodge his punches. Then Skyler egged him on, and Danny threw a punch that sent Skyler flying. After that, Danny got more respect from the other students.

Wanting to test his newfound abilities further, He put together a pink and purple costume, and entered a wrestling competition to earn some extra money. No one took the guy in the pink and purple costume seriously. He had the audience on his side when he made a fool out of that macho wrestler.

The fight promoter cheated him out of his prize money. So Danny didn’t think it was any of his business when the guy was robbed shortly thereafter. He was feeling spiteful at that moment.

Turned out, it was his business. His house was surrounded by police cars, caution tape, and his mother crying hysterically. It turned out, his father had been shot and murdered. This wasn’t fair. His father did nothing wrong. He supported his love of science, and didn’t mind that he was gay. Why did he have to die like this? In a rage, Danny took off, changing into his costume, determined to catch his father’s killer.

Caty joined up with him, and they found the killer in an abandoned warehouse nearby. It was the exact same guy he caught robbing fight promoter earlier. He knew then if he had stopped him, his dad would still be alive. He wanted to kill the guy right then and there, but couldn’t bring himself to do it. That was the moment Spider-Man was born. He wanted to make sure something like this doesn’t happen again.

More happens after this, but I don’t feel like writing all of it. It’s late. I’ll continue the story later.

Powers, Gadgets, and Skills:

Enhanced Strength: Danny has strength proportional to that of a spider, and can lift 173 times his own weight.

Enhanced Speed: He’s not the Flash levels of speed, but he does move fast than the average human

Enhanced Reflexes and Agility: He is extraordinarily limber and can perform various gymnastic feats.

Enhanced Balance: Danny has an enhanced sense of balance or equilibrium. He is able to stand perfectly still on almost any surface

Enhanced Healing Factor: He can heal from injuries faster than the average human

Enhanced Duribility: He’s tougher and can take a beating better than a regular human. That said, he prefers to dodge things.

Enhanced Immune System: Due to his accelerated metabolism, Spider-Man has a higher tolerance for drugs and diseases than normal humans, and he can recover from the effects of larger doses rapidly.

Enhanced Metabolism: He can eat a lot without gaining weight, and he has a bigger appetite.

Wall Crawling: He can cling to walls and surfaces.

Spider Sense: Danny possesses a precognitive danger or "spider" sense which warns him of potential or immediate danger by the manifestation of a tingling sensation in the back of his skull. It works with his superhuman reflexes to help him dodge most dangerous situations.

Webs (The webs are not organic. He make his own brand of spider silk that he can shoot out of web shooters worn on his wrists. The silk is a tough flexible fiber with adhesive qualities. It is strong enough to support his weight, and can use it to swing. The webs disolve into powder two hours after being exposed to air for easy cleanin! He can make different variations of the web for different purposes. His normal webs are pink, but Danny can also make them different colors. Including rainbow web for Pride! Danny wishes he could figure out a way to get a patent on this without giving away their secret identity)

High Intelligence (His favorite subjects are the sciences such as biology, chemistry, computer science, and physics. He’s also interested in robotics and engineering but isn’t an expert in those fields)

Fluent in Spanish, French, and Italian (Speak, Read & Write) He likes romance languages. What of it?

“You thought you could get rid of me, but I’m like a weed. I keep coming back!”

Number: #006
Code Name: Poison Oak
Classification: Safe || Risk Level: High Risk
Legal Name: Dr. Florian Pine
Preferred Name: Pine, Dr. Pine, Professor Pine,
Age: 30 || DOB: February 17th
Height: 6'0" || Weight: 180 lbs
Sex: M|| Gender: He/Him

Ability(ies):
  • Chlorokinesis - Poison Oak has the ability to control all forms of plant life, manipulating their growth and behavior. He also specializes in crossbreeding plants to create new species.
  • Plant Physiology - Being part plant, he can breathe CO2, allowing him to survive in places that lack oxygen. He can also Photosynthesize, so he can go long periods of time without eating or sleeping (though he can still do both if he chooses.) He does require sunlight,water, and a specific saturation of minerals to maintain healthy functionality. He is physically stronger and faster while under sunlight. Being cut off from sunlight can weaken him, and eventually kill him. He can turn his skin from green back into a normal tone to blend in with society. He prefers his green skin though.
  • Regeneration: - Pine can regenerate from injuries. He can even regenerate lost limbs. Although the process is slow, and requires an extensive amount of energy.
  • Pheromones: - His body can produce pheromones to influence the behavior of others. Those with strong wills can usually resist though.
  • Poison - His body can produce a variety of plant based toxins. He can administer these toxins through physical contact. Particularly a kiss. He is also immune to plant based toxins himself.
  • Plant Empathy: - He has a spiritual connection to plants. He can communicate with them, sense them, and see through their eyes, allowing him to witness events in their vicinity.




Physical Description: Poison Oak is a tall and lean man with a heart-shaped face, firm jaw, and green eyes. He has a mop of blonde hair and normally green skin, which he can change to appear human. He often wears thick green glasses, but does not actually need them.

In his plant form, his skin becomes green. His hair is still blonde, and he has a humanoid silhouette. Vines coil around his limbs, and sharp thorns protrude from strategic points for protection. His body is decorated with various flowers giving him a splash of color besides green. The only clothing are a pair of green tights with a vine pattern that blend with his skin, and a pair of leaf boots.

Procedure: Pine seems to be fairly cooperative, and well behaved. He only requires the bare minimum of power supression technology to keep his Pheromones and plant based toxins under control. However, there is reason to be skeptical of this behavior, and it is recommended to keep him closely supervised and monitored by designated team members.

History: Pine’s parents were scientists who studied plantlife. They were often in the field busy with their research, and neglected their son. They left him with a nanny when they were away, but young Florian never connected with her. Pine wanted his parents love. In an effort to get their attention, he tried to get into what they were into. He obsessively studied plants, and read all of his parents research notes hoping that they would love him, if he showed he liked plantlife as much as they did. It sort of worked, but it wasn’t enough. His parents treated him like a colleague rather than their child. They would take him on their research trips with them, but they would leave him to his own devices. Even though his parents didn’t show their affections all that much, Pine knew he wanted to be a Botanist, just like his parents were. He was still hoping to win their approval.

Growing up, Florian had always been a strange young man. He was fascinated by plants, which others found to be odd. He was often bullied by others because he was physically weaker, psychologically delicate, and because of his interest in plants. Due to the bullying, Florian usually preferred plants to people. Plants didn’t judge him.

Despite the bullying, Florian, who often went by his last name Pine because people made fun of his first name, was an intelligent young man. He eventually earned his Ph.D in Botany and Biochemistry and was employed at a prestigious university before he turned thirty.

There, he was still bullied by most of his colleagues. His ideas were mocked, and he was dismissed as unconventional. Only one colleague was nice to him. Dr. Evan Dendron. A handsome male scientist, and the only one who showed Pine any ounce of respect. He defended him from bullies, and was the only one who believed in Pine’s potential. Pine had developed a crush on him.

Pine threw himself into his work, determined to prove the viability of his theories. He dedicated long hours to conducting experiments, often resorting to unorthodox methods in his quest for knowledge.

However, was facing dwindling funding, and mounting pressure to produce results or else lose his job. Pine developed a method that would allow humans to photosynthesize, thus solving world hunger. He was sure this was a scientific breakthrough. However, when he presented his ideas, University officials ridiculed him, and dismissed his theories. They believed there was no way humans could survive on sunlight alone.

Determined to prove the viability of his idea, Pine conducted secret experiments on animals. After many failed attempts, he finally succeeded in enabling a rat to photosynthesize. He showed that to the dean, but instead of being impressed like Pine had hoped, he was horrified. He was accused of cruelty to animals, and misuse of university resources and faced legal consequences. Pine didn’t understand what the issue was. Everyone was scared of rats anyway. So why is it when he sacrifices a few in the name of scientific advancement, it’s a problem?

Desperate to prove the effectiveness of his discovery, Pine snuck into the lab, and performed the experiment on himself. However, something went wrong, and Pine was transformed into a half-plant half human creature.

Pine was actually happy with the results, and was prepared to make a grand display to the public. Then the police came to take him away. Pine panicked, and the plantlife around him responded to his plantlife, and killed the officers who had come to apprehend him.

Pine was even more happy with his results, but the rest of the world sure wasn’t. The Government was forced to get involved, and Pine was on the run. Desperate, he turned to the one person he knew he could trust. Evan. When he gets there, Evan is as supportive as ever. He promised to help Pine, but it was all a ruse. He reported his location to the authorities, while keeping Pine distracted.

When they show up, Pine is forced to act in self defense, and make his escape. He turns to his parents, but they are apalled by what Pine has done.

Feeling betrayed and alone, Pine turned to nature. Nature never hurt him, and people hurt nature. If the people wouldn’t accept him, the plants of the world would. He would take back what rightfully belongs to Mother Nature, by any means necessary.

From then on, Florian Pine was now Poison Oak, and became a feared ecoterrorist. He has gone on to kill his former colleagues at the university (though leaving Evan alive) and wreaked havoc on civilization in the name of environmentalism. He was ultimately stopped and apprehended by the DNCC.
