Some years ago, notoriously slow-paced CSI Technician Barry Allen was hit by a lightning bolt that doused him in dangerous chemicals. Rather than kill him, Barry awoke in a hospital with nary a scratch or burn on his body. Trying to catch an Uber after he was discharged, Allen discovered that he'd been fundamentally changed forever: that the lightning gave him the gift of superhuman speed. Ever the closeted nerd, Barry took what could have been a corrupting influence and turned it into his greatest dream by deciding to become a superhero, utilizing old propaganda comics about another fast guy - Jay Garrick of the Justice Society - to become The Scarlet Speedster of Central City, The Flash! 

Since stuffing the iconic red and gold suit into a specially designed ring, The Flash has made fast friends and even faster enemies, ranging from the villainous Rogues comprised of Captain Cold, Mirror Master, Heatwave, Captain Boomerang, The Trickster, and others. He's also tangled with abnormal foes such as Gorilla Grodd, The Turtle, and a particularly nasty customer from the 35th Century - Eobard Thawne, aka Professor Zoom, but better known as The Reverse Flash.

But it's not all bad guys in the world of The Flash. After revealing his secret identity to savvy television reporter Iris West, who already put two and two together, Barry and Iris married and have been in wedded bliss for the last seven years. When his step-nephew Wally revealed himself to be The Flash's number one fan, an accidental recreation of Barry's origin turned him into a trusted sidekick, Kid Flash, before Wally grew to maturity and became The Flash of Keystone City. And in truly the most outrageous development of Barry's career, a chance encounter with fellow speedster Max Mercury revealed to him the presence of the interdimensional Speed Force, allowing Barry to go backwards and forwards in time, hone his vibrational abilities to escape any trap, create speed duplicates of himself, and tap into a whole host of powers that he would have otherwise thought to be impossible!

But Barry's greatest strength is his nature as a force for good. Whether it's taking Iris on a dinner date on the other side of the Earth and having her back within the hour, mentoring Wally through his growing series of responsibilities, rescuing victims of a housefire within the same second as dousing out the fire itself, or simply showing up for his weekly game of checkers with The Trickster over at Iron Heights, Barry is the definition of a true hero in that he always puts others before himself. Sometimes to his own detriment, but always for the benefit of mankind.

And hey, if The Justice League comes calling? He'll always be there in a Flash.[/i][/indent][/indent]

So of course I was gonna jump on the chance to play him. One of the reasons I love the character so much is that unlike Clark, Bruce, Diana, Hal and others, he doesn't see his role as a duty or greater calling more than he sees it as just plain fun. He loves being a superhero, which in turn makes him embody all of the best parts of that type of character. And he certainly doesn't need some tragic backstory to motivate him, either, so no dead mom shenanigans here. This is purely and simply The Flash as he's meant to be - fun, heroic, and out of this world![/i][/indent][/indent]

The Flash has the potential to be both a strategist and a frontline combatant in any given fight thay's on The League's level, so I want to play around with that. Speed is key![/i][/indent][/indent]
