Here's my CS. It's taking longer to get everything organized and get the OOC going; my dad just lost his other foot to diabetes last Wed. and it's taking longer to get the living space ready for him than I'd originally planned. Still looking forward to this, just might take another day or two to get that OOC rolling. I'll review the other posted CS's by the end of the day, so if you're waiting to submit one go ahead and toss it on here!

BRIEF Bio:
JD was an eighteen year old out of Midway City looking to make a name for himself in the rising art scene located in Gotham. When housing arrangements went wrong he landed on the streets without transportation of his own or a full time job. He eventually fell in with the Robins just before gaining his metahuman ability, and afterwards it was only a matter of time before he was contacted by Gordon.
Notes: Gotham Bolt was originally the closest thing I could create to a Caucasian Static in the DCUOnline MMORPG. The original idea for Titans of Gotham was also the name of my ‘League’ within the game. We just used 0’s in place of o’s and capitalized every letter LOL.
Sample Post:
Over half of the city was like something out of the Blade Runner films. The other half was old and falling apart, like buildings from a black and white noir film from the 1940’s. The cyber industrialization of Gotham began in the city’s industrial park and expanded outward. Another name for ‘Old Gotham’ was ‘Outer Gotham’. JD operated as Bolt mostly in Outer Gotham, but during his time with the Robins he was often in the more futuristic areas of the city. Gotham’s answer to NYC’s Times Square was dubbed ‘Neon Circle’ by the gangs of Gotham in the late 2020’s after the industrial upgrades began. Much of the land owned by Bruce Wayne in Outer Gotham was absorbed into Wayne Industries and high class futuristic suburbs were built, and Wayne Manor itself was remodeled into the new Arkham Asylum.
“HELP! SOMEBODY, PLEASE!” screamed someone in the distance.
A young man in a black hoodie with a white lightning bolt on the front leapt from the roof of a taller building, still in the shadows of the futuristic buildings mere blocks away. A two hundred plus pound Gotham manhole cover flew from seemingly nowhere and the young hero landed on it and descended down to the area where the screams originated from. Electricity or lightning trailed behind the young metahuman and he was finally at the scene. A member of the Jokerz was cornering a young female in an alleyway.
“C’mon now… I just wanna show ya somethin’ FUNNY!” the clown man taunted at the girl.
“The comedy club is up the street, clown. And it’s closed Monday nights.” Bolt stated hovering down the last few feet, almost on top of the two people below him.
“You some kinda thrift store superhero? Cause I got ways of dealin’ with…” the Jokerz gang member began to say before a manhole cover pinned him to the brick building next to them. He continued to talk smack but was completely immobilized by the two hundred pound plus steel weight that was the manhole cover. JD stepped over to the young woman, who looked to be around his age, and extended his hand. After helping her up he made sure to keep his head down in his hood and to stick to the shadows. He didn’t really wear a mask underneath.
“Get out of here and call the police.” He said to the point, as the girl did exactly that. She pulled out her smart phone on her way out of the alley and moved quickly.
“I wonder who else Gor… Oracle is gonna get for this team?” Bolt thought, using his power to pull another manhole cover from somewhere close to float around on. “I’ve got to remember to stop thinking about people’s real names with telepaths actually existing in the world and not just on tv…”
