Original Int check in General

This RP will be set in modern times, but in the Incredibles Universe. Supers became legal again in 1962, though hero work requires a license and insurance to pay for any damages you cause. We are a combination of body guards, PIs, and mercenaries.

Earlier this year several companies, including Alphabet Corp, Apple, Disney, and several designer clothing brands, decided to put together a team of superheroes for the publicity and merchandising rights. They hired us to be a part of this team. They will be providing all of our gear, though we may make minor modifications if we need to. We will be sent on missions around the world from time to time, though most of our work will be done in cities around the US, as that is where most of the companies are based.

If anyone is interested in helping me design this world as a co-GM, please PM me.





(Everyone gets an Iphone 8 with a bluetooth headset. The headset includes the Quantum Entangled communications gear Quantum invented, allowing them to connect to the base with a full 4G equivalent signal. This signal can be shared with others, but normally it only allows others on the team to access it. If you let someone else access it, you have to designate their level or access, Standard or VIP (Heroes, which lets them access our files on criminals), as well as the speed of their connections. The phone also has custom security software to protect itself and us. The phone looks like a normal person's phone until you try to go to open a hidden program.)

Characters lists in case anyone wants to be related to someone from the movies.

WIP. I got a start and I'll try to finish him after work.

Name: Eddie Erikson

Super Name: InfraStep

Power(s): Super Speed.

Physiological changes: Eddie can run at near the speed of sound and his body has changed to accommodate the intense speeds.

Skills

Strength: D
Durability: D
Energy: B
Agility: B
Intelligence: C

Skills: Eddie has an eidetic memory and has always been a quick study but not to the superhuman levels. He also is very flexible, being a competitive gymnast. Although he has barely pushed himself academically, he has created a number of his own gadgets.

Personality: Eddie has always been friendly and competitive. He loves people and will give most people the benefit of the doubt. He loves food and can often be seen eating, though he has a high metabolism do he doesn't gain much weight.

Super ancestors: Unknown. He was adopted as an infant.

Bio: Eddie was adopted at 3 months old by Markus and Elizabeth Erikson. They loved him like their own son, who was only a couple years older. Once he became a year old, he seemed to always be hungry when he wasn't running around at speeds too fast for the normal people. Shortly after becoming 3, he was nearly grabbed by a strange woman. How super speed, however, saved him as he ran back to his father.

When he started school, his parents stressed on him time and time again not to use his powers unless someone was in trouble. It was then that he used it to save one of his classmates, a girl who lived in his neighborhood. After catching her and keeping her from getting hurt worse, all the other kids were staring at him. When the teachers ran up to see what was going on, he had to be truthful. They treated him like a hero for the rest of the day, though the adults didn't put up with him showing off.

As he grew older, he practiced more in the forest just outside of town. He had a few close friends and a loving family with his father, mother, older brother and younger sister. He was eight when his parents sat him and his siblings down to explain everything. They explained his adoption and why he had powers but his brother and sister didn't. He was shocked but surprisingly understanding.

He learned to hide his powers in middle school and only used them when he needed. Thinking that was good he began trying to get his mother to let him try out for sports. She never let him and always told him the temptation would be too much. With that, he began looking for something active and competitive which would satisfy his mom. He found gymnastics. He explained to his mom what gymnastics he wanted to do and, from what the woman saw, there were none he could abuse his powers in. Thus he got signed up for gymnastics.

Over the next few years, betwe friends, gymnastics and chess, he was rarely home in time to eat with the rest of the family. When his brother began thinking he was trying to separate himself from his family, as he had missed the last 3 family game nights, Eddie rebounded with the promise to keep up with the family game nights until he moved out. With his brother satisfied and a promise to keep, he had to find a balance. He ended up dropping chess as there wasn't anything he was getting there he couldn't other places. Thus, he learned how to balance friends, family and gymnastics in a way where most everyone was happy.

After he graduated at near the top of his class, he began college with multiple scholarships to gymnastics, robotics, and academics. Needless to say, he only needed to worry about food. He started part time at a Macrosoft store as a cashier and worked his way up the ranks to manager before being called to the local corporate office. They surprised him with a job in that office making nearly double his current salary. Needless to say, he was excited. He was close to graduating college and had just gotten a job as an inventor. Life was great.

A few months after his graduation, he was working on a rather vague idea when the alarm began ringing signaling a fire. It had been over a decade since he had used it in front of people outside his family. With his speed, he saved everyone, not caring that all his coworkers had just seen his secret. News quickly spread up the chain to the CEO. He was called in by Willy Bates, owner and CEO of the company and offered a new job. Be a superhero. Eddie was hesitant but listened to the entire plan before accepting. He could only see 2 problems with it: there was no pay raise and many of his coworkers knew about him. It wouldn't take much for word to get out about who he was.

Super Suit/Gear: Being employed by Macrosoft, InfraStep has the company logo on both elbow pads and both knee pads. His overall suit is red, as close to infrared as he could get and still be seen, with a gold mask and trim. His knee and elbow pads are black worth the green logo, both complimenting and contrasting the suit. He wears mid-shin length black boots with gold trim. Around his waist, he wears a black belt with gold trim and a gold buckle. Around his belt are various pouches that carry his tools which include:

    Smoke pellets
    EMP grenades
    A pair of Tonfa
    Ropes
    A small bag of candy (something like skittles)
    A notepad and pen
    His cell phone
    A camera

@Rockin StringsThe only issue I see so far is that you left durability off of the stats. That would mean that it defaults to an E, low normal level, but you also mentioned that he was more durable so that he could handle his power.

As a reference, I think Dash from the movies would be:

Str: C
Dur: C
Ene: B
Agl: C
Int: D

He can only run at 100kph or so, though.

@TheUnknowable Not entirely sure that Dash's durability is that high. He's a kid. I'd lower that and higher agility, personally.

@FalloutJackActually, I was thinking of when he ran off of the cliff and survived by hitting branches without injury. Mostly that was because he caught branches or because of his suit, though, so maybe that was more agility than durability.

Similar to how I'd set his mom's durability at C instead of B or A even though she survived a missile strike. The suit was shown stopping small rockets when she first saw it so it has to offer a bit of protection. His suit could be very similar instead of just being low friction, and highly wear resistant.
