Ladies and gents! I give you, Black Mask! [u]Name:[/u] Richard Contiello [u]Alias:[/u] Drug Lord [u]Age:[/u] 19 [u]Personality:[/u] -Richard has a very brutal and sadistic personality. His temper is certainly not the best in the world and cares very little for his employees though he will not waste men if it is not necessary. (Unless he is angry.) [u]Powers:[/u] -Richard has no powers besides an extensive knowledge about chemicals, poisons and drugs and some knowledge in martial arts. [u]Equipment:[/u] -A necklace of colored pins. Three yellow, three blue and three red. Yellow pins are coated with a paralysis poison, blue pins induces unconsciousness and amnesia and red pins induces uncontrollable rage. -Two knives hidden on each foot. [u]Weakness: [/u] -Richard is a regular human and so is vulnerable to anything a super can do to him. [u]Appearance:[/u] -Standing at an average height of 5'7, Richard has a handsome face with short blond hair and sky blue eyes. He usually wears a fancy tuxedo when he is out in public and switches to his more casual clothes when he is not but he always wears a necklace of pins of varying colors and a knife on each foot. He has a skull mask which he uses when he is at 'work'. [u]Bio:[/u] -Richard was born in a simple but beautiful family who lived in a farm the outskirts of a small town in Oregon. Richard grew up seeing rich kids in T.V. flaunt their possessions, possessions young Richard would do anything to have. However his simple family could not afford those kind of things and this made Richard angry. Thus Richard vented his anger by capturing small animals in the forest and brutally dissecting them alive and decorating the forestry with their entrails. When Richard reached 19, he watched the rich kids in the media continue to flaunt their wealth. Richard could take this anymore and decided to kill his family, harvest their organs and burn down their house. He then promptly sold the organs to a client which netted him enough money to enter and become a major player in the criminal underworld, his violent and unfettered personality eventually subjugating much of his rivals. Currently, Richard deals in organ harvesting, drug smuggling and arms dealing. [u]Arc Ideas:[/u] -Oooh, do one where after the heroes take down Richard, the underworld becomes five times more violent since there's a power vacuum. [u]Other:[/u] -To protect himself from supers, Richard employs supers available for hire. Lemme know if there's anything wrong.
