Her murder was ultimately ruled manslaughter, and the culprit was let off with three months served in jail plus eighty hours of community service. -Chuck's Hyperhuman abilities initially manifested in heightened periods of creativity which led to the early prototypes of much of both IllAdvised's and late, the Maverick's gear. Chuck would later discover, that these periods of heightened enlightenment were his abilities latching onto and mimicking those of his father. M E E T I N G T H E M A V E R I C K S: -During his freshman year of university, Chuck began to more boldly patrol New Lilith, chasing leads and listening to police radio waves. While pursuing one of these leads in an attempt to foil a bank robbery, Chuck first encountered his future teammates, Thomas Campbell and Makarios Lillis, both in their own prototype vigilante costumes.

He's able to retain skills for much longer - but needs to maintain the skills himself to keep them 'permanently'. This means that his skill-bank isn't constantly growing. He learnt jujitsu last week but he realizes that Krav Maga's better at beating up bad guys, so that's what he's going to maintain. Hyperhuman powers are a lot more fleeting. So it makes sense Chuck would rely on trickery and 'gimmicks' in scenarios where there's no powers to siphon or he needs to get close enough to fight fire with fire.
If you want Chuck to have superadvanced tech, but balling on a budget I think there's something interesting to be said about Chuck's first hero outing being him stopping someone with hyperintelligence / technopath, by doing so Chuck copied the person's powers, and during / shortly after the confrontation Chuck's already above normal intelligence allowed the power to create basic sketches, diagrams, plans, manuals, or whatever that 'human' Chuck has been deciphering. Leaving a sorta mystery for him to solve how his own brain thought when juiced up.
Tying Chuck's tech, skills or powers to some sorta memory and a sense of 'unlocking' memories links him, Thomas and Makarios together in distinct ways while all three of their powers stems from the very same thing of unlocking, deciphering and understanding something they carry within them.
______________________________________________________________ A L L I S O N M A R T Í N E Z A L L I S O N M A R T Í N E Z "Face it, Ace, you just won the lottery." - ![]() - - - ______________________________________________________________ | - Allison Martínez was a nurse paramedic with the ability to create and control electricity. She followed the Maverick's career closely, and eventually met them through several first-response situations. Enamoured with their work and the idea of a vigilante life, Allison began using her abilities more and more, eventually donning a costume of her own. After figuring out that it was ₵hakra behind a recent crimewave, Allison joined forces with the Mavericks to defeat the popstar turn supervillain. It was after this she finally became a Maverick. Formerly the Maverick known as Sparky before her identity was discovered by the then reigning crimelord of New Lilith, Roman Locke. Employing the twisted Hyperhuman known as Mindwarp, Locke had Allison and her family captured while Mindwarp worked to break her mind. When he was done, Mindwarp had left Allison a shell of the person she once was. Gone was Sparky, in her place was Overload. Unleashing Overload on the city, Allison killed her family before moving onto the Mavericks. Allison easily lured her fellow Maverick, Gecko into a trap. Gecko was subsequently captured, tortured and ultimately killed by Locke's hired muscle, the Behemoth. Gecko's death was broadcast to the other Mavericks through his own heads-up display, bringing the wrath of Angel who ultimately fell under the temporary control of Mindwarp but unlike Allison, managed to come back due to his own mind being too much for Mindwarp to suppress. Before his death, Gecko unfortunately revealed the location of the Maverick's base which in the ensuing assault led to the death of two more Mavericks, Xander Wen and Adam the Synthetic Man. Prior to her mental assault, Allison had been romantically involved with IllAdvised; the Maverick leader, who had been planning to marry her. Since her fall, IllAdvised has always felt personally responsible for Overload but still carries a torch for her and hopes one day to bring back the Allison that he knew. |
- Where had he heard that before? With a twist of his wrist, IllAdvised summoned his motorcycle on the busy street below. Leaping from his former perch, the Maverick indulged in the rush of brisk air, momentarily getting lost in the sensation of falling, the shock of the current situation overwhelming him. Before Chuck could respond, Glitch's safety measures kicked in, extending his underarm gliders and guiding him onto the back of the moving motorcycle. Chuck could feel his heart sinking as he weaved to and fro through the busy traffic lining New Lilith's streets. Any trace of hurt was gone, buried beneath a seething layer of anger. Thomas wasn't supposed to be out patrolling as Angel, he was supposed to be at home with Tiffany. Sam had even told Chuck that Thomas and Tiffany were expecting. He had sent a gift, a little onesie embroidered with the phrase 'Daddy is my Superhero.' Thomas was not supposed to be bleeding out on some wharf on the Lower East Side, he wasn't even supposed to be in the city. He was supposed to be safe. The data readout from the suit was running constantly along the right lens of IllAdvised's mask. His brow furrowed under the armoured ballcap that shielded his face which was completely concealed beneath a large hood. He wasn't near foolish enough to know that Maki couldn't sense his internal distress, but that didn't mean he needed the older Maverick to see it all over his face. | ![]() |
