 Character Sheet template:Character You Wish To Play: Anthony Stark/Iron ManMoral Alignment (Hero, Villain, Walking the Line): Hero (on the edge of becoming Walking The Line)Affiliation (what group/team/organization, if any, is your character affiliated with?): StarkTech Global- OwnerCharacter Origin & Backstory:Anthony Stark was born to wealthy industrialist and humanitarian Howard Stark, and social/humanitarian/actress Maria Stark. At least thats who he was told were his real parents, up until his 18th birthday where he and his parents had a falling out and it was revealed that he was adopted.Growing up, he had a lonesome life, with only his dog, Jarvis to keep him company while his father spent his days inventing and engineering new things for society and weapons for the American Government, and his mother was travelling the globe. In an effort to spend time with his father, Tony learned he had a high aptitude for learning and engineering things. By age 15 he built a prototype hologram projector, which actually work for a few brief moments before his home's energy output reached it's limit.When he and his parents fell out, he ran away with his dog, attempting to make a new name for himself, but he lacked the business side of running a business of technological manufactoring, and quickly failed. During this low point, the world was shocked when Howard and Maria died in a car crash. The general public had no idea of their family being torn apart, so Tony saved face and became the head of StarkTech Global, a worldwide company that had it's hands in every field of study.Learning from his past failed business ventures, he hired Obidiah Stane and Virginia "Pepper" Potts to be his figurehead and personal secretary respectively.Obidiah was then working for Hammer Industries, an America centered company that was floundering and falling fast, so he jumped ship, intent making his name serious in the world of business and politics.Virigina was a beautiful model, and a very intelligent young woman with ties to the United States Military, primarily through her boyfriend Colonel James Rhodes.By age 21, Tony had become the world's richest person in money, but the world's poorest when it came to family and friends. All he had was his dog, who was growing old, and an endless string of sexual partners, all women of course. This realization forced him to start drinking alcohol to cope with such a stressfull life.Tony spent his 25th birthday overseas in the Middle East, in the past few years having lost the last remnant of family he had left, and so he poured 90% of his energy in his work, and 10% on booze and ladies, everything else was irrelevant to him. On his 25th birthday, he was kidnapped by an extremist group calling themselves The Ten Rings...He was taken to a compound, along with several other high value individuals including Ho Yinsen and Maya Hansen. Together these people were forced to build state of the art weapons for the rising terrorist organization, but one day, one of the weapons malfunctioned and blew up, enveloping Tony Stark in a fiery inferno.To save him, the hostages worked day and night to save him, he would wake occassionally and scream in unparalleled agony, but when his conditioned settled, he revealed a prototype exoskeleton his company was making, and through the pain he got them to build a workable, yet crude version of the one back home, though it came at a price.His legs were useless and were amputated, his entire left arm was removed, his right arm cut in half. One of his lungs was crushed, and he only had 25% vision in both eyes combined...The people of the scientific community didn't quetion the ethics, didn't say no and let the man die. They pushed the boundaries of science a little further, they saved the life of a young man, one who had every reason to not continue to live.Yet Tony Stark was born anew, no longer a man, but an Iron Man...Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):Skills:1) Genius Intellect- Tony has an almost superhuman brain, capable of computing complex equations, solving theories, and many other feats, even while distracted2) Advanced Engineering Skills- Tony can make anything out of anything, from an exoskeletal splint, to a suit of armor made in a cave(As Iron Man)1) Durability- most of his suits are made of a mesh of titanium, platinum, diamond, and vibranium, thus making his suit nearly unbreakable by average man2) Strength- Iron Man can lift 1 ton, the equivalent of a small automotive vehicle easy as pie, but will struggle with 5 tons3) Flight- Iron Man is able to break the sound barrier at best, and is able to enter the outer limits of Earth's atmosphere for a brief time of about five minutes4) Repulsors- Iron Man can project hard light from his palm and chest, all three combined can break through solid crystaline structures5) Various interchangable weapons- Iron Man is equipped with anything from small arms fire, to Bunker Busters (from Iron Man 2)6) Energy conservation- When Iron Man reaches 10% or lower power, the suit will absorb any nearby sources of energy (kinetic impact, heat/solar, cryogenics, otherworldly, ect)7) Life Support- The suit's primary function is to keep Tony alive for longer than his 12 hours of unassistance. It is equipped with dialysis, an external heart and monitor, iron lungs, and many other devicesSample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):It was overwhelmingly dark, and eerily quiet with absoluetly no noise. He couldn't move, and he couldn't blink, life had become an unbearably painful nightmare. He was a shell of his former self, now inside of an actual metal shell so he could live another day, for the past few days he was unsure if he could it anymore, live that is, but he had a promise to keep.Slowly, images appeared before him, first a blueprint of his workshop, bare as it was, it was his new bedroom. Then slowly it was given finer details until he has able to see and analyze everything individually.Next came the noise, nothing overwhelming, just the soft whirring of the suit, and the quiet murmur of the television on upstairs in his living room. There was no smell to be accompanied, for it had died with him back in captivity.Slowly his hands began to ball into fists, not his own flesh and blood, for they were gone as well, replaced by cold, hard metal. He didn't even have phantom pains.Tony Stark, a man now forced within this suit of life support, grimaced with what little facial tissue he had that remained, "move damnit," he said aloud, and little by little the suit was unplugged from the wall, the corner of his vision read 100% power.Tony growled under his breath as his new feet clumsily stepped forwards, every movement he made caused a noise to be made."Review the past seventy two hours of visual input," he commanded the systems."Reviewing and retrieving... view now?" Asked the autonomous voice that came through the armor,Yes," Tony said flatly as he stood still and watched the movie his new life begin to take form, the part of the machine that was life support applied eyedrops to his bloodshot eyes, but he couldn't blink away the pain, he couldn't blink at all for he had no eyelids. So he just stood and watched...72 HOURS AGO...WIP


What is still WIP? If I may ask?

So while waiting on him to respond..I read through the posts. Hawkeye is only NPC'd in that he is about to go on a mission and is part of SHIELD. Even if by off chance Henry didn't agree with me making Hawkeye a sheet, besides the notion of keeping the continuity he started in line, why must I talk with him first before I start on the sheet? I'm just saying since Hawkeye is not a sidekick nor legacy. Curious inquisitive nature currently.


Well Capn is going to crossover with Swordsman eventually; and Swordsman/Hawkeye team-up would allude to the comics and stuff.

My other ideas are:

2) Ares, God of War
3) Bob Reynolds, The Sentry

Well, the first one doesn't work in practice, partly as the institute has been formed, meaning the majority of your story would take place in the past (making it impossible for collaborations). I like the sound of the third one a lot though. Obviously, go with what you want though.

 Character Sheet template:

Character You Wish To Play: Bob Reynolds, The Sentry

Moral Alignment (Hero, Villain, Walking the Line): Walking The Line

Affiliation (what group/team/organization, if any, is your character affiliated with?): None, he's a loner

Character Origin & Backstory:

Before Robert became the Sentry, ths most power being all of multiverse, he was a mere Earth dwelling dick of a man. He was a mooch, an overweight, uncaring mooch of his girlfriend. His mother was in a nursing home, but unable to pay her medical bills, the staff were ready to throw her out into the cold cruel world.

Before Robert became the Sentry, a being of unrivaled power and goodwill, he was a drug addict, whose choice of poision was meth. He got into it in his early teens through peer pressure in the wrong crowd. He was very stupid young man and was constantly arrested for possession and criminal mischief.

He was by no means a hero, or even a role model.

Before Robert was a superhero among superheroes, he was a thug. He was very well adept at lockpicking, so when a couple of neighborhood guys told him of a score of a lifetime, he jumped at the chance before learning the score was property of Tony Stark's megacorp.

Before Robert was the embodiment of the Yin Yang concept, he was a man with no morals, he would do anything for his next high, for his next dollar. So when he found out that the score they came to get was an untested drug of unknown potential, Bobby being Bobby, injected himself with it.

The next day he awoke in his own bed, his girlfriend high as the sky at the edge of their mattress. Robert tried to inject himself for his morning dose, but found the needle break on contact with his skin. Curious, he went to the bathroom to try pill popping, but when he looked into the dank musty mirror, his reflection looked notjing like him.

His shaved golden hair now flowed to his shoulders and a radiated a beautiful glow. His teeth once rotten from drug use now perfect and accounted for, his once pockmarked with acne and facial scarring was now unblemished. His six pack of beer for a stomache was now buff and chiseled like that of a god.

His once too tight and favorite red stained shirt and torn into oblivion blue jeans were nowhere to be found, instead he wore a skin tight spandex like yellow material with a black belt and a flowing blue cape.

He also realized he no longer felt the need for a high, instead it was replaced with a nother emotion, one that he sorely lacked in his entire life.

Robert Reynolds felt happy.

Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):
Superstrength- a prototype Super Soldier serum mixed with a bad meth high grants Robert the strength to crush entire planets with a single hand
Superspeed- thanks to the serum, he can cross lightyears in milliseconds
Invulnerability- nothing but age can kill him
Super telescopic sight- Bob can see the center of an atom clear as day
Light emission- Robert can emit light equivalent to the Sun, but without any blinding or heating effects, instead granting all who are enveloped, a calm and happy sensation
Teleportation- Bob can teleport to anywhere at any given time in a matter of a yactosecond
Memory Sharing- The Sentry can share his memories with another individual, but doing so causes them pain beyond death
Total Body Reconstruction- if he is killed and desintagrated, he will reform his entire body in mere seconds

As The Void-
Shadow Energy Excretion- the more the Void takes over Bob's body, the darker and more twisted his appearance becomes
Shapeshifting- The Void can transform into anybody or anything and project that image outside of Bob Reynold's body
Weather Manipulation- The Void has a near mastery over all negative forms of weather
Telepathic Invasion- The Void's shadow tendrils can take hold of a person's mind and over time manipulate and warp it into a nightmarish result
Visionary Touch- everytime someone attempts to touch The Void, they go into a seizure and view the past present, and future simultaneously
Omnipotent- The Void is strongest either during a full moon, or in the Negative Zone where it could break every bone in the Hulk 100 times over in about 10 seconds flat

Weaknesses:

Insomnia- Robert no longer needs to sleep, but in not doing so, he is still affected by it's absence
Telepathy- Robert has the weakest and most fragile mind on the planet, one mental invasion and he is on his knees screaming like a baby in seconds
Schizophrenia- To other people, Bob is talking to himself, or voices in his head, but to him the voices are all real, and very dangerous
Split Personality Disorder- Whenever Robert as the Sentry does something good, The Void will resurface one night and do something equally bad. For example, if he saved a man from a burning building, The Void would come back and burn that man alive.
Dissociate Identity Disorder- The Sentry being the most powerful being in existance has a habit of not caring about the single individual in trouble if it does not pertain to his mission of the betterment of the people.
Love- Bob Reynolds love for the people in his life is enough to pacify the presence of both the Sentry and The Void into mental recession, but it is Love for a better future and Love of Chaos that drive the Sentry and the Void respectively to surface

Sample Post (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):

The C Train, busy as always, crowded as always, and unclean as always, but who am I too judge? I Robert Reynolds. I'm just another dick in a sea of punks looking for their big break.

I look through the foggy window at the New York City backdrop, and i'm not alone in my reflection, staring back at me are two other guys, one who calls himself the Sentry, seems like an ok guy. He looks deep in thought, his big burly arms crossed as he listens to everyone, people he says need our help.

"Closest one is a few blocks away," I hear him say, his voice extremely commanding, and I start to sweat as I attempt to push his voice from my crowded head,

"Why?" I ask, "what makes this situation so worth the mighty Sentry's time?" I ask aloud, unaware i'm gathering stares, some from a young man listening to smooth jazz on an Ipod.

"Well," another voice starts, this one belongs to the other reflection, a thing that doesn't seem so solid, and looks wispy, it also looks like a twisted version of The Sentry and myself, The Sentry calls it The Void. Devoid of any good anything.

Good will.

Good intentions.

Good emotions.

"Well," The Void starts, and smiles a toothy grin, "we could just let her get assaulted, make her never feel safe again," I look directly at The Void, who I see has now positioned himself behind a frazzled mother, taking care of a little baby. Though it's the way he said 'her' that gets my attention.

"Linda?" I ask, eyes wide with fear, now businessman, probably a Wall Street guy looks over at me. They think I'm crazy, I know.

"Yeah," the deranged thing said in mock giddiness, turns out you left the door unlocked on your way out," it explains and pretends to file it's wispy nails, "naughty boy, you know what the hood is like," it laughs tauntingly, "the one guy who groped in the Central Park the other day,"

"NO!" I shout and stand up immediately, scaring many of the passengers, but I don't care about them, not with my Linda in trouble now.

A couple of punks approached to my left, one guy grabs his side pocket, a gun most likely so I play to their readiness.

"Kids, don't fuck with me," I growl, and briefly glance at Sentry's reflection,

"Why not?" The leader, a man with a ski cap asked, as if he really cared.

Because of-" I start to say, but I feel my body changing already, my muscles grow, my hair starts to glow, and my clothes change until The Sentry has fully taken charge.

I now see things happening a little slower, outside of what was once my own body.

"Me," I hear Sentry say before he barely pokes the punk and they all fly backwards, leaving a dent in the subway car's door, and that was a pulled punch!

For awhile The Sentry sizes everyone up in silence until I hear the Stoke Broker type speak up, "Hey crazy guy, who the hell do you think you are?"

Sentry begins to glow a bright golden color as he says, "I am The Sentry, Guardian of Good,"

And the three of us teleport to Linda's aid...

I'd have to say it's a little early on for X-23 to be in play, though I'll change my mind if Henry feels otherwise.
