[hider=Beta Ray Thor] Name: Beta Ray Bill Alias: Beta Ray Thor Age: 39 (late 20s in Korbinite years) Powers/Skills: -Bill has been augmented both genetically and with cybernetic components increasing his natural attributes to peak Korbinite levels levels. -Without outside aid, Bill is able to thrive in hot climates with ease. -Being the appointed champion of an entire species, Bill is trained in various Korbonite fighting styles. -[hider=Stormbreaker] Similar to Thor’s own mythic hammer, Mjolnir, Stormbreaker is a weapon capable of great destruction and a tool capable of incredible feats. Stormbreaker is what allows Bill to go from peak-Korbinite condition to superkorbinite condition. In order to undergo his transformation between Beta Ray Bill and Beta Ray Thor, Bill must be attempting to transform (no unwilling transformations) and bash the hammer into any type of surface. After his transformation Bill gain a plethora of abilities such augmenting his already heightened attributes, allowing him to fire lighting from his hammer, summoning Stormbreaker back to himself (so long as it hasn’t been picked up again by another sentient being) roughly control the weather of whatever planet he is on and he is capable of flying unaided through the void of space.[/hider] Weaknesses: -If there is no surface for Beta Ray Bill to hit Stormbreaker against or if said surface is to soft, Bill will be forced to rely on other means of fighting which is much less than his Thor form. -Stormbreaker has roughly the same worthiness enchantment as Mjolnir and as such if Bill were to become unworthy in the eyes of the hammer’s enchantment (which is flawed as it’s worthiness as deemed by Odin at the time of it’s creation) he would lose the ability to even pick up the hammer until he proved himself worthy again. -Continuing on from the previous point, if an sentient automaton were to come along, they to could use the hammer’s power as the enchantment enacts itself upon living creatures as opposed to those artistically created. Personality: Bill can come off as a very rigid individual to those who don’t know him as he mostly tries to keep up a professional image when around strangers but once he gets to know someone he shows that aside from the hammer and armour, Bill also has an Asgardian’s sense of having a good time. When it comes to a fight of any caliber though, Bill will never underestimate his opponent no matter how minuscule and will take no care in keeping up an sort of facade when faced with an enemy.

He served as a peacekeeper wherever he was stationed and did his best to keep his planet relatively peaceful. Even as Korbinite scientists discovered the imposing threat of Surtur and his fire demons, Bill kept doing his job which now meant protecting the public from itself as they began to riot. As he kept doing his job diligently, the egg heads of his home world began work on what they called the ‘Beta Ray’ Project, a multistage program that would ensure the survival of the Korbinite people even if their planet could not be saved. Bill was one of many volunteers for the program which required them to go through rigours test to find the prime candidate to undergo the Beta Ray procedure. Eventually Bill was chosen for the position of defender of the Korbinite species and he underwent genetic and cybernetic modifications so that he could defend his people from whatever peril they should run into in their trek into the unknown. Soon every single resident of Korbin (the home planet of the Korbinites) was loaded onto an ark like spaceship and put into suspended animation with the ship itself set to follow Bill’s ship as he lead them off into the universe to find a new home. Eventually Bill made his way to the Milky way galaxy which garnered the attention of SHIELD who in turn asked Thor to go investigate the strange alien vessel. As Thor landed on the Ark ship he was met with hostilities from Bill who assumed the God of Thunder was trying to harm his people. A fight ensued and Bill managed to separate Thor from his hammer and then proceeded to lift the mighty hammer, a feat impossible by many. Thor and Bill were then transported to Asgard by Odin who made Bill and Thor fight to see who would be the owner of the hammer. Eventually Bill won the battle but he would not deal the finishing blow to Thor as he had now come to realize that Thor meant no harm to his people. For this Odin ended up commissioning a second hammer to be made for Bill called The Stormbreaker. Bill then parted ways with the gods and went back to his original mission of finding a new home for his people. Eventually Bill found the Korbinites a new home planet and now he roams the universe protecting the innocent and executing the guilty. Additional Notes: Sample Post: [Hider=The Origin of Beta Ray Thor] Bill sat at the helm of his ship, the Skuttlebutt, as he lead the Korbinite Ark ship which contained the entirety of his species into the unknown of the universe. It had been years since Bill had first taken up the mantle of champion of his people but to the Korbinite it felt like yesterday but this wasn’t a fond memory as even though it was the proudest moment of his life, it was also the end of his life as he knew it. Those flaming demons sent by the one they only knew as Surtur destroyed what was left of his home and his galaxy, forcing him and his people to seek out a new home and hopefully outrun the ones that made them leave their world. A blinking red light snapped Bill out of his train of thought and brought him back to reality. With the push of a few buttons Bill was now watching an incoming being in some ridiculous armour, coming at his ship at an incredible pace. “Slarg, another thing that wants to try and take us out. I would’ve never guessed ten years ago that there would be so many things in the universe that wanted to kill us.” The Korbinite said, taking note that he had to stop talking outlaid to himself as that wouldn’t fly once he found his people a new place to live. With yet another push of a button Bill fired a volley of energy blasts from the ship at the incoming being who, quite surprisingly, simply swatted them away and continued course. Seeing as the creature was getting close, Bill turned on the automated defences of the ship, put it on auto pilot and began gearing up with various weapons and a space suit in order to confront the incoming threat.[/hider][/hider]
