Archetype: Inter-dimensional hero
Name: Marvin Smith
Alias: Commander Gauntlet
Age: 26
Powers:
Spectral Gauntlet: Marvin's only power is the ability create armored ghost like hand that floats above the ground and can be felt on the physical plane. He can manipulate it to do different tasks like a real hand and for combat purposes he can have it punch, grapple or whatever hand motions he finds useful for the task at the time. The hand can also change sizes and can go from being the size of a normal hand to the size of a Honda CRV. At its maximum size the hand is able to lift a maximum of one thousand pounds, at normal size it is just as strong as a normal hand. For defensive purposes Marvin can put the gauntlet in front or wrap around him to protect him from attacks.
Weaknesses: The hand can only move a maximum distance of fifty feet away from Marvin and when it is created it has to be within seven feet from him. While the gauntlet is tough it is not invincible and with every hard hit it starts deteriorate and starts to form holes. He can only summon one hand a time and after it is dismissed it takes thirty minutes for it to be fully repair from the damage. Once it is destroyed he has to wait to use it again. It also takes a few seconds for the gauntlet to grow in size and it requires concentration to manipulate it. Aside from his power, Marvin has all of the vulnerabilities of a normal human.

BRIEF Bio: In a world where nearly everyone has superpowers and heroes and villains are as common of a job as your average retail worker, Marvin Smith had a dream of becoming one of the great ones. Unfortantly in his dimension where a man can tow planets on a chain and heroes can move at light speed, Marvin and his singe superpower seemed insignificant. No matter how hard he tried Marvin couldn't compete and he wasn't able to make it to the top. In his world there are winners and losers of the super powered community, and he was among the losers.
Even in his home city in New Zealand he was still outclassed and found himself disappointed in his career as a hero. It wasn't too long in his disappointment and failure that he heard of ingenious scientists developing a potential dimensional doorway. Maybe in another world his powers and acts of heroics would be more appreciated, so with little thought for other things in his life, Marvin offered himself as a test subject to see if the dimensional gateway would work. After waiting about a month and preparing himself for the journey, Marvin traveled through the gateway and into primary earth.
Unfortunately the gateway only stayed open for a few seconds before closing behind him and leaving him trapped in this new dimension. With no friends or family in this alternate dimension, Marvin would have to start up from the bottom and work his way up. Thankfully back in his home dimension gold and jewels were a common commodity for money and he wouldn't have to worry about his finances in this new world he had stepped into. To his relief he also saw that this world had a much smaller population of superhuman people and therefor meant that Marvin could finally seize the glory he so desperately wanted.
With his alias and powers, Marvin set out to be a winner in the hero community. Unfortantly by traveling to this dimension Marvin unknowingly opened up a doorway for horrific extra-dimensional entities to come into this world and cause chaos.
Storylines: trying to become a celebrity in the hero community and failing most of the time while also fighting against Lovecraftian themed monsters
