Personal information

Behind her mask, Katie Kovacs is a nobody. She's a quiet, mousy girl, one that no one would pay attention to unless she directly drew attention to herself, something she's not too fond of doing. She enjoys sitting wherever there's room, reading and writing to her hearts content. She can do this for hours on end, without ever getting bored. In public, she's always been more of an extra.

But that's only when she's Katie. When she's sick of reading under trees, she pursues more exhilarating activities. If she's feeling to antsy for reading, but too tame for crime fighting, she'll go on one of her urban explorations, in which she travels to abandoned urban locations, and finds what secrets they might hold. But more often than not, she instead dawns her uncle's mask, and goes out as a vigilante to solve crimes and end criminals.

While Katie is an excellent fighter, she usually pulls her punches when unmasked, not wanting to hurt anyone too badly, which often leads to her getting pummeled. However, when she puts on the mask, she loses that, and all sense of control. It's then that she goes all out, often resulting in mangled bodies.

Strengths:
⚜ Katie has an unbreakable will. Once she starts something, there's no stopping her.
⚜ Despite her age and limited training, Katie is an extremely skilled combatant.
⚜ Katie is quite the detective, and is skilled in solving all sorts of mysteries.
⚜ Katie's body doesn't need a lot of sleep.

Weaknesses:
☠ Katie has a temper, especially when she's wearing the mask. If she loses it, it can cloud her judgement.
☠ Katie isn't very good when it comes to people.
☠ Katie is a guardian for the everyman. If there are innocent lives on the line, she'll do what she can to save them, even if the outcome is not ideal for her.
☠ Katie is not super. She has no powers, she can't fly, she's not invincible. She's just a human trying to do what she thinks is right.

Brief Biography:
After her mother died in childbirth, Katie was sent to Little Wanderers' Orphanage. The orphanage wasn't exactly what one would call pristine, being located in the slums of Manhattan, but, during the course of her childhood, it was the only place she could call home. She mostly made enemies, especially out of the bigger, meaner kids, but she did end up befriending another girl, one who was also named Katie. The two spent most of their early childhood as the self-proclaimed "Defenders of Little Wanderers", but, for the most part, they mainly got beat to shit. But they did it together, which was what really mattered. They were together, and they were happy.

However, Katie Kovacs was never destined for happiness. It was on her fourteenth year that her life spun on its head. First, the second Katie, Katie Kovacs' best friend, was adopted by a young tourist couple from China. And just like that, the center of Katie's universe was shipped off halfway across the globe. Then, only days later, Katie received a new center: a grappling hook, some journals, and a mask, all in a cardboard box.

In the journals, Katie ended up learning of the adventures of a man by the name of Rorschach, a one man crusade against crime. From them, she also learned of her connection with this man. His true name was Walter Kovacs, the half-brother of Emily Kovacs, Katie's mother. She also learned much more. She learned of the art of investigation. She learned, as much as one can from a book, how to fight, and climb, and jump. By the time she finished the journals, she thought she was ready for the real deal. She had spent her nights sneaking out of the orphanage, practicing what she learned on discarded mattresses she hung up and used as punching bags, scaling small buildings to the best of her abilities. So she figured she'd delve right into it by facing a local gang. She thought she could take them. As it turned out, she was wrong.

She was able to take out the first few, who were mainly just young men with guns told to stand guard. But when the real baddies came out, Katie couldn't take them. She was almost killed. She would have been killed too, had the gang not been scared off by something. Katie still doesn't know what it is that saved her life. 

She ended up being found by some passing civilians, and was sent to the hospital. She spent weeks in that place. But when she got out, she immediately started up again, this time smaller. First, small time thieves, then average thugs, then bank robbers, and soon, she found herself back on the gang's doorstep. This time, though, she came out on top. Ever since, she's been a smalltime defender of Manhattan's slums, cleaning up the trash that the cops wont. But still she felt that she wasn't living up to her family name. So, once she heard about the opening of an academy for people like her, she signed up, so she could become more.

Powers and Abilities

Born to Fight: Katie has a strangely natural instinct when it comes to fighting, one that she was born with. Almost like an animal, Katie is able to fight with little to no thinking, though using her brain often increases her performance. In addition to this, she also has deadly precision.

The Niece of a Detective: Katie has almost a sixth sense when it comes to mysteries. With incredible investigation skills and high perseptive abilities, she's one hell of a detective.

In the Right Hands for the Wrong Reasons: Along with numerous other things, Katie also adopted Rorschach's lethal creativity. In her hands, anything can be used for a weapon.

Strength: Katie is stronger than the average person.

Acrobatic: Katie spent her teenage years jumping from building to building, grappling up tall buildings, and breaking into criminal hidouts. All this has made her extremely skilled in the field of acrobatics.

High Intellect: Katie is a very intellegent girl.

Alright, take three, here she is! Also, I'm going to add in her schedule later! It probably wont be all fancy though, because I have no idea how to do that kind of thing, and even if I did, I don't think I have the software to do it.

Currently working on a new character, who will also have parents from Watchmen because I love that comic to death. Kind of sad I can't make his alias Nite Owl III to carry on the mantle, but oh well.

Oh, and P.S., I was way off when I said I might not be able to post often during the next week, because most everything is packed and we won't be moving for three days or so. So yeah. I'm still here.

Finished up my second character. Much more proud of him than I am of Frank, to be honest.

Hollis Dreiberg


General Information
Name: Hollis Walter Dreiberg
Nick-Names: Affectionately called Holly by his mother, though that doesn't mean he likes it when other people call him that.
Alias: Nite Hawk
Gender: Male
Occupation: Student
Place Of Origin: New York City (specifically Brooklyn), New York
Age: 19
Date Of Birth: October 12th, 1997
Appearance - Human:
Hollis stands at 6'3 and weighs 154 pounds, being extremely lanky and having an undeniably awkward air about him. Has a slight build, with muscles that aren't apparent until you find yourself knocked on your ass by a punch. Wears horn-rimmed glasses out of costume, wears contacts under goggles in costume. Keeps his face clean-shaven and his hair neatly combed to the side. Usually wears short-sleeved button-up shirts over plain t-shirts, with jeans and sneakers.Relationship Information
Relationship Status: Single
Sexuality: Heterosexual, though he is bi-curious.
Partner: N/A
Father: Daniel Dreiberg, AKA Nite Owl II
Mother: Laurie Dreiberg (nee Juspeczyk/Jupiter), AKA Silk Spectre II
Siblings: From what Hollis understands, he has a missing sister. Whenever he asks his parents about her, he is quickly hushed, which led him to believe it was a touchy subject. As such, he doesn't speak of her.
Pets: N/A
Other: His grandmother, Sally Juspeczyk/Jupiter (AKA Silk Spectre I), who passed away in 2005; and his grandfather, Edward Blake (AKA The Comedian), who passed away in 1985.Personal Information
Personality
Hollis takes after his father, being very timid and polite in any social situation. He doesn't like to argue with people, being a very non-confrontational person, often cowing down to insults (because of this, he is frequently described as a push-over). If they persist, he will attempt to calm the person down or, failing that, will just walk away. However, if these insults are directed at any of his family members, he will not be so tolerant. Due to his timid nature, Hollis tries not to draw attention to himself, frequently blending in with the crowd because of this.

In costume, Hollis is vastly different. He is much more outspoken and determined, taking it upon himself to be a group's tactician and always ensuring that his opinions are heard. Before fights, Hollis likes to give his enemies a choice: stand down or fight. Of course, they almost always take the latter option, but he still likes to give them the choice. Hollis doesn't like to drag fights out longer than they have to be, usually doing whatever he can to ensure his opponent(s) goes down fast.

In short, a level-headed and polite young man out of costume, and a level-headed and polite badass in costume.

Likes and Dislikes
✔ Stories about his parents' exploits as heroes ('Can you tell me about how Rorschach dropped that guy down an elevator shaft again?')
✔ Coffee ('God's gift to man: a steaming cup of rich, black coffee.')
✔ Good food ('As they say in France: bon appétit.')
✔ Silence ('People are too loud for their own good.')
✘ Rude and/or arrogant people ('Why can't we just be friends?')
✘ Staying up past midnight, with the exception of patrols ('God never meant for humans to stay up this late.')
✘ Bad food ('... I'm supposed to eat this?')
✘ People insulting his family ('You say one more thing about my mother, and I'll break your jaw.')
 
Hobbies:
* Inventing
* Sparring
* Jogging
* Reading detective novels
* Watching comedy movies

Strengths:
⚜ Hollis is an excellent listener, knowing when to keep quiet and just let someone talk.
⚜ When he needs to be, Hollis can be charismatic, putting on a charming grin and letting out some honeyed words.
⚜ In contrast to some heroes, who would rather rush in and wing it, Hollis is very calculated, preferring to come up with a plan of attack instead of being impulsive.
⚜ It takes a lot to make Hollis angry.

Weaknesses:
☠ Due to his observational and quiet nature, Hollis is very often over-looked and forgotten when compared to his more outspoken peers.
☠ Due to having no formal training, Hollis can easily be taken out if his opponent is stronger or more skilled.
☠ Hollis has no skill in the use of ranged weapons (save for his grappling hook, if that counts as a ranged weapon).
☠ Hollis, though usually calm, collected, and very hard to piss off, is easily angered if someone insults his family members.

Brief Biography:
Hollis Walter Dreiberg was born to Daniel Dreiberg and Laurie Dreiberg, two costumed heroes who had been active for twelve years after an eight year retirement. He grew up knowing of his parents' dual lives, and though they never encouraged that lifestyle, his grandmother did, and the idea of taking down criminals in tight spandex appealed to Hollis for whatever reason. It was clear from a young age that he was set on becoming a hero, like his parents and grandparents before him, despite his parents' protests.

After years of begging, Hollis started training at the age of 14, and continued to do so until he was 18. He proved to be an apt pupil, quickly picking up on the skills he was taught which went hand-in-hand with his natural abilities. Last year, when the treaty was signed, his parents retired and stopped training Hollis. However, they encouraged him to go to the Academy when it opened up to continue his training, and so here he is.Abilities
High IQ - Hollis is very intelligent, having taken after his father when it comes to his mind.
Agile - While Hollis gained his father's brains, he also gained his mother's body, being very agile when compared to most people. This includes being able to demonstrate impressive feats of acrobatic ability, like flips, cartwheels, and the like.
Skilled Combatant - Hollis was trained by both of his parents in the art of hand-to-hand combat. His fighting style is mostly a combination of boxing and street fighting rather than an actual martial art.
Gadgets - Hollis has a vast array of gadgets at his disposal. This includes: night-vision goggles, a gas-powered grappling hook, smoke bombs, a respirator mask, and the crown jewel, Archie, a flying ship in the shape of an owl that can also act as a submarine.
Other Information
Other: Hollis is named after Hollis Mason, AKA Nite Owl I, and Walter Kovacs, AKA Rorschach.
Hollis is most definitely a mama's boy.
Nothing to see here, folks.
Theme Song
Theme Song: TBA

Alongside the four required classes, Hollis will take Combat and Self-Defense, Tactical Operations and Ground Interference, Science, Information Technology, Engineering, Robotics, Gymnastics, and Meta-Human/Inhuman Knowledge. Also not sure what his theme song should be, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
