Batman: Gotham Knights

Name -
Michael "Mike" Smith

Alias -

Shaman

Age -

24

Powers -
Shaman:
Mike is gifted with the ability of the Shaman, something that only happens once every two hundred fifty years. What it entrails is that he holds a super-strong bond to the spirits of the world, spirits of both the dead and the living. He's able to telepathically communicate with animals and plants and as such keep in tune with the world in a way that the average person could never achieve. With great concentration, he's able to manifest physical forms of the spirits he's communicating with, human spirits are almost impossible for him to communicate with.
His connection with spirits allows him to manipulate nature and nature's elements to some degree, allowing him to use energy in a similar manner to magic, generate or extinguish fire, shoot lightning bolts and so forth are all in his arsenal.

His shamantic abilities also increases his dexterity, perception and other senses.

Skills -
Meditation: Mike spends a lot of time meditating, as it calms him down and allows him to focus and as such get more in tune with the spirits he's communicating with.
Martial Training: A five year long tour in the U.S army's earned him quite some skills. He's an excellent hand-to-hand combatant able to beat most other soldiers in a fist-fight. It prepared him with knowledge in melee weaponry as well as ranged weaponry. It also granted him the ability to be a great tactician, spy, and free runner.
Marksmanship: While skilled with handguns and Assault Rifles, Mike's primarily trained to be a sniper, to take people out before they can figure out where he is. However, tapping into his heritage, he finds that bows are just as useful for him as a sniper is. He's one of the best archers in the world, being able to challenge the Arrow-Family in Star City.
Multilingual: Mike spent a fair bit of his time running black-ops in several countries, making him able to speak Russian, Arabic and Chinese, while he's only fluent in Russian and English.

Composite Bow and Titanium Arrows.
Magnum .44 Caliber loaded with non-lethal bullets.
Sunglasses that allows him to see gases in the air.
Sniper Rifle - Rarely with him.

BRIEF Bio -
Born in the state of Florida, close to Miami, Michael came from a home with an abuse father, but a caring mother. His father blaming all of his problems on Michael and his little brother, James. Michael's home was poor, as his father, Richard, had quite the gambling and drinking problem. Leading Michael into a life of crime, it started with him stealing groceries, and then, as he grew into a teenager, he started stealing more valuable things, like watches, and even cars. It all made his father furious. And when Mike was 17 years old, he moved away, knowing that if he stayed, he'd go down a dark path.

He joined the army, finishing his training as a U.S Ranger at the age of 18, and then being shipped off to Iraq. Where he started to show his abilities, when he was trapped in a burning house and he somehow made the fires part for him and his injured teammate. He soon proved to be a top tier marksman, earned him a spot on a classified military unit, where he ran black-ops all over the globe for three years, before he was honorary discharged after a incident he's not inclined to talk about.

Back in the states, he started to dwell further into his connection to the spirits, he started to realize it was more than just being able to see, smell and hear better than anyone else, that he was more special yet. It all crashed down on him when a dog started talking to him.

Coming to Gotham, after a year of learning what his powers really meant, he met the Batman, whom took the young man in under his at the time, kind of crowded wing. Shipping him up to Star City to train with the arrows, which he did for some time, before coming back to Gotham, more ready than ever to do good. His military lifestyle still very obvious in the way he acts.

Notes -

He keeps a spirit around known as Shareith, that manifests as either a bear or as a wolf when necessary.

Streets on Fire

Name:

Adam Casey Weston

Nickname(s):

Idol – His Callsign in the army.

Gender:

Male

Age:

19

Gang:

Lost Ones

Height:

197 CM

Weight:

84 KG

Appearance:

Standing at just short of two meters and with a very fortunate physique, Adam is a big man. His hair is medium length, bangs sometimes getting in his face, in a almost leather like brown. His hair is usually dirty, and may be kept in a tail to keep it away from his face. His eyes are Grey, like clouds. He's usually seen wearing tank tops, jeans and a leather jacket, as well as combat boots on his feet. He keeps a shoulder holster over his tank tops and under his jacket, which is a little out of place, where he keeps his father's old Colt The cold holds eleven bullets, which means it's not even fully loaded, Adam chooses only to use it as a last measure.

Personality:

Calculating – Clever – Charismatic, along with incredibly driven and disciplined.

Short History:

Adam was born to a young mother and a older father, he was a soldier. His mother died when Adam was only a year old, so he never got to knew her, but his father raised him in his own image. He took Adam out of the city, and raised him out on the countryside, teaching him how to work hard and how to stand up on his own two feet. Adam was homeschooled by a friend of his father's, while he was taught how to fight and how to survive by his father.

And when he was old enough, Adam enlisted in the army, fighting in Operation Titanfall with other men and women whom were barely older than himself. His training since childhood kept him alive. He realized in Hungary that war was hell, that he would never take a life unless absolutely neccesary. He came to terms with the fact that he was no longer a good person, he was a villain.

He came home to his father sick and on his deathbed, heart problems had plagued his old man during Adam's entire life, and his father died just a few weeks after Adam's return, like he was waiting for his son to see him one more time before he'd pass on.

He moved to New York, where his mother had her roots, and he'd soon find himself out of money and out of food, having to do anything to make ends meet, it ended in him earning himself quite the name as a fighter, earning enough money to put food in his stomach with either his fists, or with his words.

Joining the lost has helped him, as it gives him some sort of brotherhood, like he had in the army. Someone to watch over, to take care off and worry about.

Other:

Dude loves himself some N'Sync, as well as old 50's – 70's music. He's got a mean right hook.

Hillan - I tried editing some more into my last post so I didn't sound like a douche but my iPad died and I just now got to my laptop. I was just gonna say another year or two on his age would suffice.

I changed it to a masters in Bioenginering.
Though, I'd just like to point out there's kids who are 19, in the real world, who've done PHD's. ;)

Regardless, my character's been altered. Carry on.

They also called it League of Shadows in Nolanverse, which is where it was started, I believe.

As much as I would like to argue the point with you, I'll just capitulate and give him another year.

League of Shadows is what the Nolan trilogy called the League of Assassins in the films. Everyone's cs's look good, there's only one thing with Hillan's CS that needed addressed. The character is fine but if he's got a phd in medicine it'd take at least six to eight years to earn as well as another three to eight years internship/residency. A genetics PhD might take less time, but then you have he's trained in medicine while ALSO serving a year as a ranger. What it all comes down to... You just need to make dude a little older LOLI'll try and finish my CS the next couple hours and get to working on the OOC. Good to see Wraith and Hillan!~KL~

He doesn't have a PhD in Medicine.

Bruce had four PhD's at the age of what, 22?, and Bruce didn't have a superhuman understanding of what field it is he's studying. He did his Ranger training at the age of 17, because that's when he enlisted, came back to the states at the age of 19, spending the year between 17 - 19 training. Lost his arm, discovered he had powers, studied for two years. Genius, remember.

If you still think it's necessary to bump up his age, I could do that. Also, like Wraith said, good to be here. Old times sake and all.
