Omega Man — Roleplayer Guild

Secret ID: Keene Marlow

Alias: the Destroyer, the Mighty Destroyer

Age: 28

Powers: Super soldier serum enhanced his strength, speed, and agility to Capt. America levels with slightly more increased strength. Marlow was also an accomplished hand-to-hand fighter, and was trained in the use of fire-arms.

Weaknesses: Destroyer is still very much human and doesn't hide behind an indestructible shield. In the year 2016 he will presumably have a suit that will help with this to a degree.

Personality: Marlow was just a cocky journalist until he was thrown into a concentration camp. There he witnessed several horrors and upon escaping with superpowers he became reckless in the face of danger and did everything in his power to crush the enemies of the Allies. He's a little quieter than he was before getting powers but still cocky, and he has a deep hatred for the enemy knowing they've experimented on civilians. He's definitely in the 'shoot first ask questions later' camp, which has put him at odds with Captain America at least twice so far. 

Appearance: 

In costume: Modern suit, see avatar. 

BRIEF Bio: Keene Marlow was a journalist behind enemy lines during World War II when he was captured by the forces of the Red Skull and Adolf Hitler. Believed to be a spy for the Americans, Marlow was thrown into a concentration camp where he would be beaten and later used as a human guinea pig. Some of the worst things were seen in this camp, women beaten and raped, torture, and then there were the experiments. Though Professor Eric Schmitt originally worked for the allies, he was now being forced to recreate the super soldier serum that created Captain America. After weeks of trial and error, the serum finally worked on Marlow who gained similar powers and abilities to Capt. America. Breaking out of the concentration camp and killing several enemy soldiers, Keene did what he could to free as many people in the camp as he could and returned back to an Allied forces base. 

While back at the base, Marlow met Capt. America whom he viewed as too much of a boy scout. Keene had seen horrors most people could never even imagine. He decided to try and one up the red, white, and blue clad hero and came up with his own costume. Striped pants, ghoulish mask, and a skull on his chest... he became the Destroyer. He assisted the Captain as well as other WWII era heroes including members of the Invaders and the Liberty Legion.

The Destroyer was active for the next year in Europe as a costumed adventurer. He would also meet two other men who wished to fight against the enemy and keep their identities safe, giving them permission to use the alias and look of his costumed alter ego. With three Destroyers now active, the Axis viewed the hero whom they thought was only one man as just as large a threat as Captain America and the android Human Torch. Marlow was in Nazi occupied Poland when the time traveler Franklin Richards recruited him for a mission to save the time stream. With Marlow's help, they recruited a team to go into the future to help a now elderly Capt. America in a war being waged with the Red Skull who was now the holder of the yellow Time Gem from a recreated Infinity Gauntlet. 

Notes: Marlow was the first Destroyer, and created by Stan Lee in 1941. The only difference between the original and mine is the enhanced strength being greater than that of Capt. America's. 

Sample Post: I'll copy/paste the last half of that intro post I'd typed up a page or so back that had Richards drafting Destroyer. 

________________________________

@Sep In the OP I mentioned there's room for one original character. Said character could be from the modern era. Still, the hero should have ties to WWII heroes. Maybe they're a legacy, or just used the alias of another hero with similar powers. I'm confident we'll get who we need by weekends' end to get this RP moving forward.
