Sad to hear that the holidays haven't gone so well. Hope things turn around for you!

Ross Barber (Gajana) | Odysseus Laërtiades | Joel Vaughan (Talus)

“I can’t believe that we wasted all that time trying to beat that stupid plumber and all we had to do was poke him twice!” Gajana complained while Odysseus, Talus, and he were finally entering into city hall.

“Well, considering all its takes is a Goomba running into him in the video games, I guess we shouldn’t be too surprised.” Talus answered his teammate.

The first room that they approached was the ground floor lobby. The entire premise seemed deserted because of the mischief that the Game Genie was cause across the city. A few feet away from the entrance doors was a reception desk. While no one was manning the desk at the moment, the computer was still running. Although the computer was password protected, this little obstacle would not hinder Talus. After pulling out a USB cable from his metallic arm and connecting himself to the computer, Talus easily broke through the password that locked the computer.

“So, whatcha doing?” Gajana asked as he leaned over the service desk.

“Shhh!” Talus raised his finger up to his mechanical lips. “One wrong calculation and this entire building will go!”

Talus only received blank stares from Odysseus and Gajana. “Oh, I’m just pulling your legs.” He finally admitted to them. “I’m just checking what this Game Genie is up to. Looks like he’s digitally storing people inside a database of some sort. We better find a way to free them because one blackout might erase thousands of people from existence.”

His allies still gave Talus blank stares even after he tried to clear things up. “Come on, guys! I didn’t even use any complex terminology this time!”

Then suddenly, a pillar of light appeared several yards away from where the three heroes were standing. And in this light, what looked like a young boy with wings descended to the floor. He held a bow in his hands.

“I got this.” Odysseus said as he approached the newcomer. “You keep doing, well, whatever you’re doing.”

“Lady Palutena! Who is that?” The boy cried aloud, when he saw Odysseus approach towards him.

“That is Odysseus, Pit.” A heavenly voice said from above that boomed through the building. “He is supposedly the legendary Ithacan king reincarnated.”

“Well, I better be on my game!” Pit called out to the disembodied voice. He took his bow and pulled back on its bowstring. At that moment, an arrow made out of pure light formed on his bow. He then launched it at Odysseus. Although Odysseus dodged out of the way, the arrow uncannily swerved off its course. As a result, it slammed into the man’s stomach, sending him flying backwards, although Gajana was there to catch him.

“Oh, Pit, I forgot to mention that it is rumored that he still has the armor of the hero Achilles.”

“That would have been good to have known a few moments ago!”

Alright. I know that I might have already mentioned this, but things are really getting crazy around here. I saw a a green robot blowing up television screens down the street. Pacman was chasing some ghosts a few blocks away. And there was even a small, purple dragon on the loose. But what takes the cake is this talking racoon (thank goodness he isn’t the trigger happy variety) kept on pestering me about buying some small house. I mean, where does this even happen?

“Now miss, just for one small payment of 19,800 bells, you can have a nice, cozy home of your own!” The bipedal racoon told me again. I have already lost track of how many times he had asked that same question.

“I’ve already told you. I’m not looking for any stupid house!”

“If you don’t have all the money right now, you can always pay for the house in smaller payments. Plus, I could find some odd jobs for you to do to make up for the lack of funds.” The racoon offered. He obviously was not taking no as an answer.

“No! That’s not it. I just…ugh! Why am I even having an argument with a stupid racoon!”

“I’m a very successful businessman, if I do say so myself.”

While this well-dress racoon kept harassing me about the house, one of those cubes snuck up on me. Even with my enhanced reflexes, I couldn’t dodge the red laser that the cube fired at me. One moment, I was standing next to that racoon. The next, I found myself surrounded in pitch black with green zeroes and ones swirling around me.

“Well, this is great.”

First of all, LOOOOOOVED Zemo's CS (and I love him as a character in General, the wee divil!)
but question ...

Cap - Definite Enemy
Srgt Barnes - Definite Enemy
Winter Soldier - ... Body of enemy but ... brainwashed by HYDRA ... is he friend or foe? x'D Just curious for your thoughts Ded

@Spud

Hmm...I would have to think about that one. How I would want to write Zemo is that he is more focused on exacting revenge than restoring (or taking charge of) Hydra.

@CallSignCorsair: I'll take a look tomorrow (technically today, but I need to sleep first).

Marvel - Dawn of Heroes

Your Name: Dedonus

Character Name: Carol Susan Jane Danvers

Character Alias: Ms. Marvel

Character Allignment: Hero

Character Appearance:

Hider

Ms. Marvel is able to use her powers to switch between her pre-transformation and Kree-Human hybrid appearance. Her Kree-Human hybrid looks like the picture above, while her pre-transformation looks like a regular college-aged student.

Characters Abilities:
-Kree-Human Hybrid: Through the experiments of the Brood, Carol Danvers is now a hybrid of the Kree and human species. These experiments raised her powers above the levels of any normal human or Kree. For instance, Carol inherited the Kree skin density, bestowing upon her near invulnerability. However, since she is a hybrid, she does not need an enriched Nitrogen atmosphere to breathe.
-Superhuman Strength: Due to her enhanced Kree/Human physiology, Ms. Marvel is able to easily lift 75 tons (average). However, as she absorbs energy, Ms. Marvel is able to lift more weight, easily over 100 tons.
-Superhuman Speed: Ms. Marvel is able to move at high speeds, easily above any levels a normal human could ever dream of.
-Superhuman Agility and Reflexes: Ms. Marvel’s agility, balance, and reflexes far exceed that of any regular human. While concentrating, only villains with the fastest reflexes and truest aim will be able to land a blow on Carol.
-Superhuman Stamina: Carol’s enhanced Kree-Human physiology allows her to continuing exerting herself at full effort for several hours. Her energy absorption ability increases the upper limits of her stamina.
-Invulnerability: Ms. Marvel’s skin is able to withstand almost any soot of punishment, while her energy absorption defends her from almost anything else. Bullets bounce off her skin like nothing, while larger armaments fare a little better. Repeated powerful blows can wear her down, but weaker ones may sometimes go unnoticed.
-Flight: Ms. Marvel is able to reach Mach 3 while flying. At lower speeds, she is able to maneuver in the air with ease. She is also capable of using her own body as a human projectile, ramming into her enemies with great force.
-Photonic Blasts: Carol is able to blast photonic projectiles from her hands. Her energy absorption enhances the power of these bolts of energy.
-Energy Absorption: Part of Ms. Marvel’s invulnerability is her energy absorption. While her body can absorb any form of energy, her body is especially efficient in absorbing electric, light, thermal energies and radiation.
-Minor Molecular Control: Ms. Marvel is able to change her clothing through using her energy absorption powers. She is also able to switch between her hybrid and regular human form at will. These powers are easily used with the slightest amount of heat or light energy.

Characters Skills:
-Expert Combatant: When she was changed by the Kree Psycho-Magnetron, Carol also received the knowledge of Kree combat that someone of Kree heritage would have learned as they grew.
-Love for the Stars: Carol has been interested in the space and the stars. Because of this, she has pursued a degree in order achieve her dreams of reaching the stars. Her powers have also allowed her to achieve this dream.
-Multilingual: Carol is obviously fluent in English. Her transformation into Ms. Marvel has made her fluent in the language of the Kree. She has also picked up Russian as an undergrad.

Origin Story:

Pre-Ms. Marvel

Carol Danvers was born in Boston, Massachusetts to Joseph and Marie Danvers. Even though she was the eldest child in the family, her father, Joseph favored his two sons, Steven and Joseph Jr. No matter what she did, whether Carol excelled at school or athletics, nothing pleased her father. It almost seemed as if he expected one of his two sons to carry on the family name. Even though his sons did not perform at the same level as Carol, their father still preferred them.

During her middle school years, tragedy struck the Danvers family. At the time, Joseph Danvers’ contracting business was barely staying afloat. One night, Joseph Sr. was driving Carol and Steven home after their father had drank his sorrows away after a dismal day of work. Since he was too intoxicated to be operating motor vehicles, Joseph Sr. caused a traffic accident. While the other driver luckily left the crash relatively unharmed, his son Steve failed to survive. Carol’s father could not accept the reality that his impaired driving caused the death of his eldest son, instead blaming Carol as the child who survived.

Ever since Steven’s death, Carol’s father descended into a spiral of despair. Now the bottle became his constant companion, even more so since the decline of his contracting career. Sometimes, when business was not faring well and Joseph has drank too much, Carol’s father would come home in a drunken stupor, capable of beating what remained of his broken family. While his two remaining children would occasionally feel the blunt force of their father, Carol’s mother usually was on the receiving end so that her children were not.

Ms. Marvel

Carol’s abysmal life did not end there. Her junior year in high school, Carol learned that her family had only enough money to send one of his offspring to college and that her father had chosen her brother over her, in spite of her superior academic and athletic career. For her entire life, Carol had dreamed of the stars, wishing to go to space one day. She wished to become Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineer so that Carol could one day see the stars. However, now her dreams were crushed.

Or so she thought. One night, Carol was abducted by Brood-infected Kree and taken to their outpost that was orbiting Neptune. One uninfected Kree officer, Mahr-Vehl, after he had discovered the Brood infiltration, rescued Carol from his doomed comrades. However, during this rescue, a device, called the Kree Psyche-Magnetron, mixed Carol’s DNA with that of the Kree. And from this day, Carol became something more than human. She was a superhuman.

At first, Carol had a split persona that created her superhero alter ego, whom the Boston media dubbed Ms. Marvel, after ‘she’ had saved a plane from crashing. However, when the Brotherhood of Mutants attempted an assassination of Senator Kelly, merged Carol’s personas together in the hopes of drawing out Carol’s unexperienced human persona. With the help of the X-Men, Carol was able to thwart the Brotherhood’s evil plans, despite her more experienced Kree persona no longer in control.

Eventually, S.W.O.R.D., a subdivision of S.H.I.E.L.D. dedicated to extra-terrestrial threats against Earth, recruited Carol because of her abilities. Besides being trained to control her abilities, Carol was allowed to be enrolled in S.W.O.R.D.’s academy in New York City on a full ride once she had graduated from high school. This obviously solved the problem of her father not being able to send her to college and it allowed her to pursue her dreams of reaching the stars.

When Galactus attacked Earth, S.W.O.R.D., as the extra-terrestrial arm of S.H.I.E.L.D., along with Carol, were Earth’s first response against the galactic entity. Along with other of the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, who eventually formed the Avengers, fought off Galactus and saved the world from becoming a barren wasteland.

Story Arcs:
-Moonstone: Obviously a story involving the villain(ess), Moonstone.
-Rogue: I hope to tell this story with a twist (including Carol keeping her powers and memories).
-Avenger?: Carol is adjusting to the life of both an undergrad and an Avenger. How will her teammates feel if they discover that she’s younger than she leads them to believe.

Supporting Cast:
Walter Lawson: Agent of S.W.O.R.D. who personally recruited Carol. He is also secretly the Kree scientist, Mahr-Vehl, who wishes to protect humanity due to its biological diversity, unlike his own kind, the Kree.

Abigail Brand: Head of S.W.O.R.D.

Avengers: Earth’s Mightest Heroes. Carol is one of their most recent recruits.

Marvel - Dawn of Heroes

Character Name: Helmut Zemo

Character Alias: The 13th Baron Zemo

Character Allignment: GM-controlled Villain

Characters Abilities:
-Anti-telepathic Headband- Much like Magneto's helmet, Zemo wears a headband, which belonged to his father, that shielded his mind from telepaths.

-Compound X Formula- A serum developed by his father, this formula keeps the Virus X at by, preventing it from killing Zemo. The formula also prolongs Zemo's life, making him seem youthful, despite being a kid during the Second World War. This formula did not produce any other powers, unlike the super-soldier formula.

-Virus X: A biological weapon that Zemo's father developed. Zemo was infected by this virus when an accident happened at his father's castle during a raid by Captain America. Only the Compound X Formula prevents the virus from killing Zemo.

Characters Skills:
-Mastermind: Zemo is the brains of the operation. Just like his father, Zemo has received the best available education. Therefore, he is able to organize other villains who would otherwise be easily defeated alone into a team capable of even taking on the Avengers.

-Weapons Expert: Zemo is capable with any weapon in his disposal. However, his greatest strength is his swordsmanship. His skill with the sword allows Zemo to even hold his ground against superhumans, despite Zemo's lack of powers.

Origin Story:
Helmut Zemo was the son of the 12th Baron Zemo, Heinrich, and his wife, Hilda in the 1930's. His father was an influential scientist in Germany and an early leader of the Nazi party. During the Second World War, his father was tasked with creating a secret weapon that could turn the tide for the Axis powers. And this research culminated in Virus X. This biological weapon was designed to effectively eliminate as many people as possible, whether civilian or soldier. By 1943, the Axis offensive had been stalled and desperate times call for desperate measures.

Rumor of this weapon reached the Allied Power's ears. And their only response was sending in the big guns: Captain America and the Howling Commandos. The Allied assault force invaded Castle Zemo in Zeulniz, Germany and a hard-fought battle ensued. However, Captain America and her allies eventually won the day and destroyed Zemo's secret weapon. But during the destruction, the Virus was spread through the castle, infecting everyone inside. Zemo's father gave his son the proto-type antidote for the Virus X, but there was only enough to save Helmut Zemo. As a result, no one else survived, including his father and mother.

With his father's death, Helmut Zemo became the 13th Baron Zemo. While the antidote, the Compound X formula, saved Zemo from certain death because of the virus created by his father, it also slowed his aging, too. Although eventually this meant that Zemo would still look young in the 21st century, it was at first a curse because Zemo continued to look like a teenager in his 20's and early 30's, making him not be taken seriously, especially at university.

The one thing that kept Zemo going was his hatred of Captain America and her allies. And he swore that he would take vengeance for the death of his father and mother. At first, he thought his opportunity was lost when Captain America seemed to have mysteriously disappeared in combat. But once she resurfaced in the 21st century, Zemo knew it was his time to avenger his parents.
