"Jason" is a name from ancient greece that sounds like it was made up in the united states in 1979.

I can roll with all the punches, if you hold a couple back. I can handle being broke, but I can't stand to be so sad.

"My name is Barry Allen, and I'm the fastest man alive. When I was a child, I saw my mother killed by something impossible. Then an accident made me the impossible. To the outside world, I'm just an ordinary forensic scientist, but secretly I use my speed to fight crime and find others like me, and one day, I'll get the man who killed my mother, I'll get justice for my friends, my father and for Iris. I am the Flash."
Lighting struck the ground outside of the suburbs of Central City, The Streaks as the suburb was called, less than a mile off a very peculiar house in the story of our hero. The house where all of this had begun a number of years ago that to him was impossible to know. It was where all of this started, really. Even if he was but a boy then, it was the defining moment in his life. Being this close to that place made his body surge with new power, new purpose. His body that moments ago - in a different time - had felt like it was losing it's power had now become reinvigorated. He was running. God, he was always running. But he was never alone, not anymore. Before, he would've had friends, loved ones, or her by his side, but now, he had the devil on his heels. The same lightning bolt that had struck the ground struck the same place again and behind him he appeared. His dark passenger, his reflection. His shadow.
His Reverse, The man in Yellow came out gritting his teeth, his eyes glowing sharply red as he grappling for the hero. He was narrowly dodged and then counter attacked, a swing towards his yellow-clad face, as their blurry arms collided, lightning rang all around them and what had a second ago been a small storm was now quickly growing into a massive hurricane. Nature knew full well that these weren't simply two men fighting. It wasn't a squabble, and it wasn't even a rivalry anymore. It wasn't a feud between two sprinters, a tug of war between opposites.
It was a battle between titans, a war between two forces of nature. An effort to put an end to the unanswerable question - what if two unstoppable objects collide. They traded blow after blow, moving in circles and every time they did, lightning struck them and another pair of them appeared. They didn't say anything to each other, but they both knew it.
This was the end. It ends tonight. Soon, they had occupied the entire field they were one, a red and a yellow blur moving faster than anyone in the world could comprehend, unleashing enough power that if it wasn't absorbed by the other could've caused catastrophic damage to the surroundings. A kick, a lightning spear was thrown, a velocity barrier was made, they phased at different frequencies, moving through one another, they pulled out all of their stops here and now, using every little bit of all of their might. Finally, The Flash saw an opportunity. A lightning bolt to the Man in Yellow's that he could not parry, he took a few meter's leverage to gain enough speed to hit him with enough energy to end this once and for all. But as his fist was about to collide with the paler man's face, it was over.
All the battles on the field stopped then, as if the entire world stopped.
His hand was shaking, trembling. They were moving at all but normal speed all of a sudden, consumed by what was happening. In the middle of the army of Yellow and Red fighting, there were the pair of them. Flash's fist colliding with Zoom's face, yet, Zoom's hand vibrating through Flash's heart.
"I win."
"You will never win, Thawne." He said with a pained grin, as the red duplicated began exploding into bright glow, absorbed back into the speedforce. Thawne pulled off Barry's cowl, and then took off his, revealing his graying blond hair, matching Barry's full head of gray. He leaned over to Barry, letting him rest one arm over his shoulder, as he leaned in closer. "I win, Flash. I beat you." As he pulled his hand out of Barry's chest leaving a gaping hole as he had vibrated the organs into dust. Barry fell to the ground, his blood splattering all over Thawne's yellow suit.
The Reverse Flash pulled up his cowl again and began laughing, hysterically and manically. He had finally won. He had finally showed that idiot Barry Allen that he was the fastest. He had taken everything that was important to Barry, and now, he had even taken his life.
Gideon's voice spoke softly in his ear.
"Thawne, sir. The timeline's becoming unstable. Your defeat over Mr. Allen must have shaken the speedforce. This timeline is becoming highly volatile, I am detecting anachronisms all over time. Get out of there."
"I'll go wait it out in the negative speedforce. This timeline can go to hell." Thawne said with a smile, as he began running, seemingly a lot slower than he was used to. "Gideon, I am.. Slow." His voice couldn't hide the euphoria he felt, still, but his pragmatism stopped him from celebrating. He was powerful, but even he couldn't survive time collapsing on itself.
"It would seem that your body's connection to the speedforce has been severely damage from your battle. You are essentially out of fuel. You need a recharge of dark matter, Professor. Thawne" The female voice informed him and Thawne smirked, seeing the particle accelerator in the distance exploding.
"I know just the place."
Speeding into the CCPD's loft, the forensics lab, he saw a young Barry Allen climbing onto a shelf to grab some chemicals. Thawne non-nonchalantly pushed him off the ledge with the remainder of his speed - taking Barry's exact place as the lightning bolt came through the window, surging through him.
He headed back outside - into a Central City in chaos. Thawne never got tired of seeing all of the mayhem this night caused, no matter how many times he had to see it. He still felt slow, but not as slow as before. The timeline was still deteriorating, and certain objects were melting away. A lamppost, a fire hydrant, cars, even some people were being turned into nothingness.
"That's my cue to leave." He sprinted as fast as he could, breaking into the barrier of the speedforce.. But it was no refuge for him, instead, he was immediately pushed out of it, landing on his face.
"What do you mean I'm not allowed to?! DO you not know who I am?!" he yelled in anger, as the portal closed again.
Feeling how time got even more unstable, Thawne's fist pierced the ground. "Fucking FINE!" he cried out in his fury, his fist summoning a lightning strike as it shattered the concrete under it. He climbed to his feet, and time stopped collapsing, seemingly.
"Gideon. Find me Edward Thawne."

So, since some people(read: all of you) remain obstinately untalkative:
Is there anyone's run you're particularly excited for in this game, besides your own? Myself I'm looking forward in particular to seeing @Hillan trying to make a Thawne-shaped cube fit into a Barry-shaped hole. There's sure to be a lot of tension and good times to be had by all. Not to say I'm not looking forward to all the incoming runs in some respect, but something about Hillan's concept is just off the wall enough that it makes me pretty excited.
Likewise.. About the Thawne thing, that is.
All jokes aside, I am digging your take on Spider-Man. But Namor's currently what I'm looking forward to the most, largely because I know how much @Lord Wraith's wanted to write political drama-esque shit, so I'm hoping he gets to flex some of those muscles.
So, to take on the burden of drumming up OOC conversation: Are there any characters that haven't yet been applied for that you'd want to see?
Myself, I'm interested in seeing what a Martian Manhunter looks like in this universe. Or for someone to do a Booster Gold to go with Hound's Blue Beetle.
B'wana is always a favorite. Green Lanterns would be cool, and I'd die for someone to play Hal Jordan for Thawne to interact with.
"Flash and GL Bromance.. Integral to timeline."
"Well fuck me in my future face, I guess."
Same. The world's fastest homicidal maniac could use some buddies at some point.
It's gonna be ok, I guess.
I'm incredibly tempted to try this out, but choosing a character is always the clencher. I've got it narrowed down to 2 so far.
Sometimes you gotta pinch it, like a turd.
@Hillan So, with Barry Allen dead what happens with the rest of the Flash family? Specifically, Impulse.
Nothing, yet. Thawne's just starting out. Bart would either be involved later, and would come from a Barry-Allen timeline, or he'd come from a timeline where time has already set, and to him, Thawne was always The Flash. Either way, I wouldn't wanna involve him anytime soon. Max Mercury, Jesse Quick, or Quicksilver are all definitely on the table, though they would prolly rely on pretty hefty collaboration, if you're doing something traditional with them.
Edit; That's not to say that I don't think Thawne would benefit from a Kid Flash. I think he would. But I'd probably rather NPC-it, unless someone who's been playing in the RP for a while (when the time arrives.) wants to double up in characters and play KF.
