When they made this boy, they forgot to put in the Quit. (Doesn't mean he won't complain constantly about it, though) T O O L (S) ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ◼ TOOL -Green Power Ring: The Ring of Will. A powerful alien artifact capable of creating anything that the user can imagine. It also grants the following powers *Super Flight (Can travel at speeds exceeding the Speed of Light for fast travel across the universe) *Survivability Shell (A soft haze of green energy constantly surrounds the user while the ring is active. It protects against high speed impacts, deflects incoming attacks and always keeps the user at a comfortable temperature, light level and breathable atmosphere, allowing them to survive even the most inhospitable places imaginable.) *Construct Creation: Fists, guns, vehicles, giant sandwiches, anything that they need to fulfil their mission. *Emotional Senses: The user can sense subtle shifts in the emotional energy spectrum surrounding them.

He knows how to lead men and how to get the best out of them. -Military Combat Training: Hal was trained by the US Air Force not only to fly planes, but also to look after himself outside of one. He knows how to forage for food in the wilderness, he knows how to make booby traps out of foliage, he knows how to defend himself in hand-to-hand combat and how to use a gun. -Multi-Lingual: Being a boy from Cali, he knows how to speak several languages. Most fluent in English, he also speaks fluent Spanish. He may be a little rusty, but he also speaks Hebrew, due to his mothers insistance that he learn it for his Bar Mitzva. He also speaks a little Japanese due to training in Okinawa.

He fought on the frontlines, performing sorties deep into unfriendly airspace and downing enemy planes. If it has wings, he knows how to make it fly. | T H E S T O R Y S O F A R... T H E S T O R Y S O F A R... Born and raised in Coast City alongside his 2 brothers, Jimmy and Jack, Harold Jordan was born into a household at the very center of the Melting Pot of American Culture. His Catholic Air Force Test Pilot father and his Jewish mother lived in a predominantly Spanish speaking part of the city. He was a little confused at having to celebrate 2 completely different holidays at the same time while growing up, but eh, who can complain at getting 2 presents every December, even if one of them was always a dreidel. When he was 13, he was on-base and watched in horror as his father's plane overcooked its experimental engine and exploded. His mother was heartbroken, but Hal was not disuaded. Even though the idea of dying in a fireball terrified him, that terror also sperned him on. He pushed hard and signed up to the Air Force against his mothers wishes and to the chagrin of both of his brothers. He quickly showed his aptitude for flying and was fast-tracked into the most prestigious air Force academy in Colorado, passing out at the top of his class. From there, he went on to perform a number of secret, off-the-books missions for the Air Force, quickly making his way up to Captain. His Military career was jeopardized, unfortunately when he received word from Jack. His mother had died from Cancer while he was away in Okinawa for some additional training for a top secret mission. This was exacerbated when during the mission, one of his superiors ignored his advise on a mission call, getting 3 pilots killed. When Hal got back to base, he put said superior in hospital and he spent a month in the brig. He couldn't be brought up on formal charges due to the need for secrecy surrounding the mission, but he was given 2 options. 1) Resign with full honours and military pension. 2) Be put on desk duty for the rest of his contract. Never to be a quitter, he chose 2, hoping he could find a way out of this career ending position. As luck would have it, Ferris Aircraft Inc. came to the Air Force with a brand new, experimental fighter that they wanted to test. Not wanting to risk some of their rising stars, Hal was allowed to fly again, even if it was only as a guinea-pig. After a LOT of flirting with Carol Ferris (The CEO of FAI) he stepped into the experimental aircraft and took to the skies. Little did he know that above him, alien beings with machinations of galactic conquest were hurtling towards Earth with powers immeasurably vaster than any might realize... P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S ) P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S ) I've always loved the Lantern mythos. Hal is a great character. I mean, he managed to bounce back after the terrible, terrible, terrible Paralax storyline. I also have always been a fan of Tokusatsu style teams of colour-coded heroes and i'll admit that that has probably leaked into here. The basic premise of the plot is that one of each of the Power Rings, Red, Orange, Indigo, Star Sapphire, Grey and Blue have been scattered across the planet and Hal and Sinestro are hunting them down as part of a small S.W.O.R.D. taskforce, not too dissimilar to the Agents of S.W.O.R.D. show. The Rings, being sentient, will be attempting to latch onto anyone who feels their associated emotion the strongest and makes them wig out based on their emotion. All the while, they will also be hunting down true Champions of their emotional spectrum, so the cast will grow as the story progresses. I think that this premise alone can lead to some fun interaction with other players and their characters. As rogue Lantern Rings invading their stories could latch onto someone and make for a fun team-up. Or even if they just want to use it by themselves, if think this will add a nice bit of interaction to the world. The story will culminate in a "Final Show-Down" with "Evil Villain who wants the Rings for himself" Currently, i'm thinking that role will be filled by Despero. I feel that he is a great balance of Power and Intimidation. Someone with the will to slaughter the entire planet, but lacking the power to do so with just a snap of his fingers like Darkseid or Thanos. But most importantly, i really like the idea exploring Hal and Sinestro's relationship. They are supposed to have a mentor and student relationship, but we never get to see it for more than brief glimpses. Yes, Sinestro is a villain in this, but i really want to tell a story that makes you like Sinestro, makes you see him in a likeable, positive light... Because then it's so much more heartbreaking when the villain is revealed for what he is, the great betrayer who used everyone and everything around him. But the main point is that the relationship between Hal and Sinestro is the very core of this and if nothing else, i love exploring their dynamic. S.W.O.R.D.'s inclusion in the sheet is mostly because, well, it makes the most sense for their Dragonball style search for the scattered Rings to be under their jurisdiction. Main Cast: *Hal Jordan *Thaal Sinestro *Carol Ferris *Dex-Starr *Melinda May *Warth *Larfleeze *Despero *Lyssa Drak *Hector Hammond Minor Recurring Roles: *Robert Gonzalez *Jessica Cruz *Death's Head *Doctor Polaris |
Maybe we actually just get steam rolling with the players and characters we currently have and... I don't know... Make IC posts? A crazy thought I know.
You're all smart and sexy, except one of you but you know who you are.
