[hider=Eisen] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/fyeauMg.png?1[/img][/center] [b][color=slateblue]Name[/color][/b] Paul Svensson [b][color=slateblue]Nickname[/color][/b] Sven [b][color=slateblue]Secret Identity[/color][/b] Eisen [b][color=slateblue]Gender[/color][/b] Male [b][color=slateblue]Age[/color][/b] 97 [b][color=slateblue]Date of Birth[/color][/b] July 27th 1927 [b][color=slateblue]Height[/color][/b] 5'8 [b][color=slateblue]Weight[/color][/b] 140lbs [hr] [b][color=slateblue]Appearance[/color][/b] Svensson is a man of Nordic and Central European stock, standing upright with a pale skin tone and light blue eyes. He walks, sounds and looks like a healthy old man, maintaining a long beard going sharply down from his chin. His hair is a pure white, long, blown back and suffering from a receding hairline. Despite his age, personal advancements in genetics have given his youthful look- though age is quick to show when under stress or any tensity is placed on facial muscles, wrinkles appearing on his forehead, eyes and nose. Also thanks to genetics, he doesn't need any form of help when it comes to moving around or eyesight. [b][color=slateblue]Costume[/color][/b] N/A [b][color=slateblue]Personality[/color][/b] Worn from years of trial and error with minimal long-term success, there is little left to loose. Paul Svensson can be described as an overly zealous and selfish individual, his beliefs acting as the ulterior motives which drive him to commit to acts which could be called by the mainstream as corrupt, immoral and even inane or outright insane. This behavior- for better or worse -is unseen by the public eye, and in turn this lack of judgement has caused Sven to further dedicate himself to his beliefs. Isolationism breeding fanaticism, fanaticism bringing violence and violence driving his isolationism. A self-perpetuating cycle that only gets worse as the decades draw onward. The dire state of Suhona only dragging him down further in this behavior. In the public eye, he is quite the polar opposite, being an act of happy lies. Sven is a strikingly cold, but reluctantly harsh individual, who maintains a silence among his peers and a faking admiration for whom he sees as subordinates. There is a tendency to stare in curiosity at all those who provide a degree of interest, inevitably involving a discussion. It would seem that these discussions are for the purpose of understanding and building a professional connection. Collecting information however is his only interest- in all things associated with this fake personality, its all a way to disguise himself and become informed. To gather and plan, while simply appearing what he would consider "-inept like everyone else." [b][color=slateblue]Backstory[/color][/b] The USA in the midst of the Great Depression wasn't a place to find many charming people, but Paul had a notorious hopeful charm. Growing up in the midst of the horrible unemployment and then in a world torn by war didn't cease him in the slightest. Garnering plenty of friendships along the way and then enlisting in the US Army as the second world war came to an end. While never seeing combat, Paul's attitude did change over time with witnessing post-war Europe. Optimism was never lost, but the discovery of how violent the rest of the world was had changed his perception of others. Paul's smiles became increasingly sinister, taking an overwhelming pride in himself as everyone else seemed so incompetent, evil, cynical- he was optimistic, above them, above being self-destructive. Little did he realize that he had developed what many saw as a narcissistic personality, getting to the point of ending his service once the papers came around to being filed, many having become fed up with his attitude and getting outright hostile. Back home, he'd move around cities on the East coast, finding home with many of his old friends and in time, being kicked out after some time of rampant experimentation. He had become obsessed with becoming smarter, narcissism feeding into a need to be superior, which made all who knew him personally quite frustrated at this obsessive need, as well as motivating him to find success. Unfortunately for others, he was quite good at learning academics, getting to the point where his experimentation had garnered the attention of quite a few employers. The rest of this era is simply a series of promotions and saving his income, as well as investigating politics out of curiosity from many government contractors. In the midst of the 1960s he founded his company- Sven's Sciences -in the city of Suhona, making numerous health-associated products and getting favorable attention until the early 1980s. It turned out some of the chemicals involved in making these products had a lethal effect on tens of US citizens. Once the public learned, the company was shut down instantly, with the government getting involved in cleaning up and confiscating all materials...or so thought. A hidden bunker, built beneath the Sven's Sciences facility in the late 1960s had been long maintained in secret, to which Paul Svensson desperately moved all his research and any possible materials into. As the years drove on and isolation continued, he had become forgotten from the world while rampantly researching and experimenting. And at the turn of the century, his experiments resulted in failure- but a useful failure. A specimen that'll be utilized as a stairway to the success he dreams of achieving... [b][color=slateblue]Superpowers[/color][/b] -Intelligence (?) While not born with a natural talent for the sciences, or engineering, or even mathematics. Paul every now and then creates something disastrously lethal, or finds a way to make it so, or possibly a way to twist physics in his favor with a week and some advanced sets of tools. He can't make a sci-fi suit out of scrap cans, but he could make much worse with some government funding and a few uninterrupted days of experimentation. [b][color=slateblue]Gadgets[/color][/b] [u]Bunker Computer[/u] -Hacking While struggling to file through the newest lines of code utilized by the freshest of technology, Sven is not lacking in the ability to hack basic mass-produced products, or even cameras found around the city. Even the unimportant facilities run by the government aren't safe- but the more important the program and it's function, the longer breaking in seems to breakthrough. -Private Communication A purely private and secured line between him and all those who work for him. It isn't without trace and can be breached seeing as this private network is all established by one paranoid old man, but it has proven more then useful to keep his identity an absolute mystery. [b][color=slateblue]Talents[/color][/b] -Criminal Mastermind While not one to call himself criminal, supervillain, or anything else he finds to be negative in tone due to the rampant narcissism he suffers from, Svensson is skilled at collecting information, gathering materials and developing plans swiftly against mainstream society. While useless for him alone seeing as he never leaves his bunker, it has come useful for his assistant/specimen, whom he puts to work regularly as this planning and gathering continues.

Her body shape is rectangular, with minimal muscle and fat, coming off as strikingly uncanny and disturbing. Her eyes are beady, with two ears sticking out of the top of her head and a long tail coming from her back. Her teeth strangely (and in the case of day-to-day life, thankfully) are more human then rat, minus two front teeth with are strikingly bucktooth. [b][color=PaleTurquoise]Costume[/color][/b] Covered in head to toe in black colored equipment, wearing a less cumbersome and more flexible flight suit, a custom helmet with a single wide visor going over the front, with numerous pouches attached to a military harness going from her shoulders to her upper thighs. Her hands are covered in thin gloves, with her feet wearing regular boots. Nothing disguises the rat tail however, that sticks out like a sore thumb. [b][color=PaleTurquoise]Personality[/color][/b] Curious, eager, harboring a lot of pent up anger. Evaline is the kind of person who makes for a great student, wanting to solve problems and very committed to her job, no matter how much she might disagree with it. Her job as of now however involves a lot reckless stealing and the rare killing, which can make someone who dreams of being a somebody very irritated. She lacks the content of character to be somebody, the lack of identity is actually a contributes to her unending curiosity for the world- people, foods, locations, music, its all rather fascinating to see, hear and smell, even despite Suhona's apparent decaying status. However, those things are never explored and likely never will be. Eager and committed to solving problems doesn't mean calm. Anger is probably the sole word that can describe her, like a being representing the burning hatred her creator has for the world. However, her anger is seldom at the world- its bottled up, its been that way since her "birth" into this world, staying for a long while as abuse is coped with and damage is dealt. And when a combatant appears, all that frustration and anger seethes to the surface, empowering her to the point of reckless abandon. The supervillain in her can be embraced rather fast. [b][color=PaleTurquoise]Backstory[/color][/b] A series of failed and contorted masses of flesh, lined up in a row of three adjacent to each other as they were close to a wall, dimly lit and nothing more then a horror show. Initially, it was expected to be another failure. One specimen wasn't, but as so far remained the exception. Evaline was not only the exception but a proven long term investment, indoctrinated into doing what Paul Svensson had demanded of her. Abusive indoctrination followed into training, this minimal training was then followed into real life murder, with the SCPD having to investigate a series of deaths regarding gangs stumbling around inside the old Sven's Sciences facility. Evaline- who was now being regularly called "Solvency" by her creator -had began to garner experience in the art of keeping not only herself hidden, but in eliminating targets. As the murder increased, so did the silence of her acts, getting to the point where the SCPD were dealing with not only a dwindling amount of evidence, but also a lack of bodies as gangs became increasingly weary of investigating the facility. As years have passed on, the city was steadily explored more and more, which she became familiar with as acts of quiet robbery were undertook. Now as Superheroes and Supervillains begin to peak in Suhona, it would seem that keeping silent will be a challenge, if not outright impossible. And the consequences of murdering unsuspecting victims and those same quiet robberies for supplies would become inescapable. [b][color=PaleTurquoise]Superpowers[/color][/b] -Enhanced Hearing Evaline's ears can pick up on sounds a regular human can not, from farther distances as well. Simple and great when it comes to setting up an ambush, but only in silence is it actually put to full use. With a city as regular and alive like Sohona, its just a slight improvement over a regular human, taking focus or heightened senses to truly hear something irregular in the cacophony of a city. -Exceptional Health Being the result of a desperate bid to improve human genetics has its perks, constantly in a state of fitness and good strength. This doesn't mean that she is more powerful then a human, mind you- just simply maintains a high level of health at all times without trying too hard. Minus when actual harm gets to her, that is. [b][color=PaleTurquoise]Gadgets[/color][/b] -Polearm A technologically advanced metallic polearm that can be extended on both ends. It has a singular grapple hook which can be fired from the push of a button at the base. A blunt weapon for when the encounters get inescapable and dangerously close. -Silenced Pistol A mere Glock 17 armed with a silencer. A simple means of murder without alarming a whole city block. All ammunition can be found attached to her harness and within the pouches attached to it. [b][color=PaleTurquoise]Talents[/color][/b] -Silent While not a perfect assassin, Evaline has adequately sneaked around the civilians of society without being spotted...often, the daylight makes for poor cover. Her movements could very well be picked up by someone with great hearing like her own, but for those unassisted it can be quite difficult to not only find, but track her down once out of sight. -Acrobatics Like any good thief, some flexibility is needed! All that one needs is good grip, or a grapple hook. Evaline makes use of this flexibility and acrobatics when sneaking around, getting a good grip on whatever is possible to crawl up walls, across ceilings and around whatever obstacle is in her path.
