[sblock=Background]
Brimstone was born with the name Michael Peterson, ironically named after the Arch Angel of the same name. He was born September 10, 1898. He was born like a normal child, no complications. The complications started after he was born. For you see, Michael Peterson was born…..different. His skin was not the pale pink of most babies, it was deep red with splotches of black, with lizard like scales. He also had two small horns coming from his forehead, wings, and a tail. Other than that he was a normal child; two arms, two legs, two eyes, right number of fingers and toes, etc. Everyone in the room promptly fainted, with the exception of the doctor, who died of a heart attack. His parents, once they recovered from the initial shock, immediately took him to the nearest priest and demanded that he do something about this “Demon”. The priest knew not what to do. All his years of training and religious schooling just failed him. His instincts told his to destroy the monster, but his heart told him not to. He called out to the heavens, asking god if he should destroy the beast. No initial sign was given so he decided to sleep on it. During the night, he had a dream where he was old and being helped around by an older Michael. The priest saw this as a sign he should raise the boy, so he did so. Michael grew up in the back of the church, out of site for the most part. The priest, Father Callahan, taught Michael how to read, write, and all the basics he would have learned in school. He also taught him theology and the basics of The Church. Michael also helped out around the church, cleaning and moving things too heavy for the Father. At night, he practiced flying around. He also learned that he could create fire in his hands, something he found useful for lighting candles and getting rid of the squirrels the sometimes got into the attic. He lived there until he was 18 (by then he was quite a proficient flyer and fire-thrower), when he decided it was time for him to move on. He spent the next few years flying, by night, all over the country and seeing everything he was told of back in that church. After 4 years of this, he went home to tell Father Callahan about his travels. When he arrived back at the church, he was not greeted by the Father, but by his funeral procession. Unaware it was his “father”, he sat in the rafters of the church and listened to the service. Turns out that after Michael left, a gang went through the town and robbed it. They killed Father Callahan when he tried to stop them from taking the church’s prized possession, a foot tall solid gold cross. Overcome with anger and grief, Michael flew off and followed the bandits trail to their hideout, where he did things too graphic for me to describe here. After his snap into vengeance, Michael repented and devoted his life to good. He went all over the country for the next 60 years helping those in need, most of whom didn’t want his help because he scared the crap out of them. He eventually settled in Freedom City, where was not the only freakish looking person around. He has made a name for himself as more of a vigilante than a hero, but he still remains on his mission. He now goes by the name Brimstone to match his appearance and because it was Father Callahan’s nickname for him. [/sblock]

COMPLICATIONS
*Suffers disorientation/exhaustion when using fire based spells, the disorientation is similar to being highly intoxicated with all of the problems therein. Lasts for at least a couple of rounds, dependant on the strength of the spells used.

*Can't use ground based spells at all, due to the nature of her magic/mutation/whatever.

*Superheroes tend to view her with mistrust and dislike at first, at least until she proves herself, this is mainly due to her reputation for using lethal force when dealing with supervillians. (The superheroes whose main focus is criminal investigation and hardcore supervillians are the exception to this rule. Superheroes who have dealt with the aftermath of what a supervillian does also respect her or at least understands why she acts the way she does, even if they don't agree with her methods.)

*On the other hand law inforcement, criminals and supervillans tend to respect her. When dealing with them, her reputation for honesty, investigative skills and sheer ruthlessness are a plus.

*She is an orphan. She doesn't know who her parents are. She has in the past come across some evidence that her parents might be supervillians and she keeps this knowledge close to the vest as it has yet to be confirmed. The only other person who knows about this is the superhero Foreshadow, who was with her when she discovered this.

*Hope and Foreshadow are very attracted to one another, but the nature of both of their lifestyles means that they have to keep a professional distance from one another. The main reasons is that they both have enemies that wouldn't hesitate to use one against the other, and neither are willing to risk that for the sake of an open relationship. Foreshadow himself is one of the few real friends and allies she has in the superhero community and knows almost all of her secrets. She trusts the superhero implicintly, perhaps because he has never betrayed that trust. Nor will.

*Hope is suffering from a kind of depression brought on by the death of her partner and friend Stephan Issacs who was the senior partner of the duo. She is also suffering from PTSD or post traumatic stress disorder, resulting in her seeking medical help after nearly skewering her team-mate by accident during a fight with super-villians. She is now taking pills for the depression and is undergoing therapy for both the PTSD and depression.


ORIGION
[sblock]
At age 7, Hope was found in a filthy alley in New york. She had been beaten, tortured to the point that she had no recollection of her past, her name. Nothing. They named her Hope, after the street the alley had been connected. A year later, she was adopted by a federal agent named Alexander Winters who had lost his wife and child in a car accident and had since been regulated to desk duty. He raised the girl as his own, instilling her with a sense of duty, honor and that might does not always make right.

Seven years later, Hope began developing odd powers that marked her as a sorceress. One of Alexander's coworkers was a closet mage himself and recognized her budding abilities for what they were and convinced his friend that the girl needed training or she would become a target for various evil powers. Alexander reluctantly agreed to let the girl train and by the time she was 21, Hope was a full fledged sorceress.

After graduating from college, Hope was recruited by the FBI, where she specialized in kidnappings/serial killings and the like. Aegis soon developed an interest in her and offered her a job. She accepted and soon became one of Aegis' more successful agents. IE: she hasn't been killed yet and generally succeeds in whatever her boss asks her to do. [/sblock]

REPUTATION
Hope is not exactly a superhero persae and has been characterized as a wildcard or an anti-hero and a general pain in the ass by most superheroes who have worked with her.

She took on the name and secret identity of The Hellborn Saint after her partner was killed by Faust and three other super-villian necromancers. She tracked each of them down and killed them one by one, until she came to Faust, whom she tracked all the way to Prauge, where she trapped him in an abandoned building, took an AK-47 and ripped him to shreds before bringing the building down on top of him. The Hellborn part of the Saint comes from tracking one of the necromancer acomplices to the very gates of the Prison dimension of Hell and impaling him on the spikes.

During this time, she also met the superhero Foreshadow, who reluctantly helped her on her quest for vengence and brought her back from the brink of darkness when she almost fell prey to it.

Most supers seem to be somewhat uneasy around her (at least until they get to know her), given her reputation for using lethal force when dealing with dark or corrupt mages, sorcerers, witches or the more truly dangerous mutants/supers.

Strangely enough, most law enforcement types and even some criminals tend to have a great deal of respect for her. Hope is well known for her honesty, hard work, stubborness and ruthlessness.

Personality:
Dedicated to the point of obession, smart and sarcastic comes to mind when someone first sees her on the job. She's stubborn and never gives up or gives in, having tracked someone literally to the gates of hell in order to bring some justice to the victims of terrible crimes and closure to the survivors.

Outside of the job, Hope is easy going and quite friendly. While on a case, she can be quite intense, even to the point of obsession. She is known to be very stubborn and won't give up or give in once she's on the trail of something she's after.

Occassionally she will help someone pro-bono, usually in exchange for a favor further down the line. This has given her a wealth of contacts both in the legal and not so legal fields. Nothing pisses Hope off more than seeing children being victimized. Hope does not like killing, but she won't hesitate to use lethal force if there aren't any options left, a consequence of being trained by a FBI mage. She is tough, but fair and has a soft spot for kids and abuse victims, as she herself was once abused.

Background info:
[sblock=]

After the first and last transmission from his home planet, he had realized one of his worst fears; being alone. His planet was now decimated, his family gone, his world forgotten. He would never see the skies of his home planet again, and would live out the rest of his life on this planet called Earth.

His duty had now been under stress, and his own thoughts and feelings seemed to interfere with his daily routine. He was tired. Tired of standing on the sidelines. Tired of simply watching, not able to do anything directly to aid this planet or this city for that matter. He was a changed man, and one that was anxious, as he had seen something that he had not thought to see. Sure, there were the evil villains, slayers, monsters, demons and who knows what else, as those images were still imprinted on his mind. But, there was something else. Something else that was not shown to him, but was now staring at him straight in the face.

There were others that withstood the normal reaction of standing by. There were others with abilities to help, instead of hurt. There were others that had the chance to survive. He wanted to be one of them, unafraid to lay down his life for the chance to right the wrongs. If only he had a clear sign that it was his path. The path that he wants to take.... he was to be their aid, their shield, their Guardian, when none could guard for themselves....

Ring of Cosmic Channeling-
This is his lone item from his home-world. It is a testament to his race’s abilities to harness Cosmic Energy and channel it through a medium. Finding that rings are easier to handle, it was decided that all others of his race would have identical rings to identify themselves to each other. Each of these rings is imbued with an array of powers that are at the users disposal, although they are independent of each other. Only one power can be effectively used each time the ring is used. Guardian's ring is tuned to his own life, and will not work for anyone else, and can not be used against himself.

----------Drawbacks------------

Ring of Cosmic Channeling requires a daily recharge from him. This can be anytime the ring is out of energy, usually lasting 23 hours at a time. After 23 hours of no recharging, the ring’s powers are lost. Recharging the ring is a meditative focus, where he has to have the following circumstances; the ring, a cosmic focus (single star, the moon, or the sun), and one hour of meditation. Meditation is a relative term, up to the GM’s discretion. Upon completion, the ring is recharged for another 23 hours of powers.

Apollo was born into a rough life, his mother was never exactly there for him, his dad supposedly skipped town before he was even born, and he grew up a little different from everyone else. He barely made it through school not because he was an idiot but because he only cared about music, and using his burgeoning powers to do something great… of course being a young man he really had no idea what he could do that would be great.

Apollo never knew much about his father, but being that his mother is or at least seems very ordinary he suspects that his father must have been something special. But he had little if anything to go on to find his father and his mother was usually working or too drunk to really give him any direction, so he just used the skills he had to make it. He got through high school on his looks, he was popular but in that mysterious musician kind of way, he had the voice and he had the skill with the axe… his own personal axe that he could create out of pure light…

It formed the center piece of his acts, he has worked with several bands; between his showmanship and his abilities his band “Apollo’s Dream” has taken off and brought him much success, fame, and wealth. But even with his success he still feels somewhat hollow on the inside, that and he was a little jealous of the adulation people gave costumed heroes. He wanted to be a hero; someone that people would love and cheer for, and although he had some of that on the stage he wants more. Being a super hero and a musician has only served to increase his fan base.

But he normally dresses in dark clothes, which is odd given his nature. As a person, Apollo is friendly, a jokester, and all around party guy. He enjoys looking cool, and knows everyone or at least fakes it. He is a health nut, and spends a lot of time working on his body and his art. He is fairly superficial but hates to be called on it and will deny it vehemently.

[sblock="Background"]
As a new transfer student from a horrible girls school, she soon discovered her powers as a teenager. Participating in sports was the only enjoyable thing in her life, the only thing that would elievate her frustration, along with her art. Being a loner with few friends, for all 4 years was tough. She decided to go out for the gymnastics team, and came up with adversaries… they said she couldn’t compete. But she knew that if she did she would’ve been the best at it. So she swam, did volleyball and archery. Then one day in college, she found a friend very similar to her, he had some type of ability but she wasn’t sure exactly what. And then started studying computer graphics, animation, though still regretting high school. But now she is determined and driven and knows what she wants.

[G. Skylark]

[FONT=&quot]Skylark[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Geraldine Skylark is a snarky, acerbic graduate student at MIT. She grew up in York, England and remains a fan of the York City Football Club. She was assisting her professor, Vaclav Ceszek, in a gravitic warp experiment, when a previously unobserved type of singularity was formed. This “white hole” apparently disintegrated professor Ceszek and a lab technician, Toby Mann. It also destroyed half the lab. Geraldine was mysteriously unharmed, and she subsequently discovered that she could manipulate gravity with her thoughts.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Geraldine finds it convenient to have a superpower, but is generally more concerned with physics research than with saving the world or fighting crime in Boston. She also is not convinced that Professor Ceszek and Toby are dead, and is slightly obsessed with the ‘white hole’ phenomenon. To obtain funding for her research, she has offered to work on large construction projects, but she is increasingly being asked by the city of Boston to help with stopping superpowered criminals as well as fighting eldritch horrors unearthed by the Big Dig. Although she is camera shy, her identity is generally known, particularly on the MIT campus and in York.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Geraldine is a small brunette with glasses and not much fashion sense. When flying about she usually dresses warmly and wears heavy boots and tinted aviator goggles. Her heavy Yorkshire accent and brutal sense of humor cause many to suspect she is a thug. She is a smoker, but gave up on cigarettes—now she uses a pipe. Since gaining her powers she also compulsively drinks milk and eats Tums, due to her theory that spending so much time in low-gravity might degenerate her bones. She is also a whiz at darts.[/FONT]

*This is more or less a power I made up. My thought is that with a power check, Skylark can turn gravitic drive propulsion systems on or off, or make them speed up,, or make them work when they are broken.

Early Life
Mr. Christopher Dodgson was born the only child of Richard and Mary Dodgson of Washington D.C. Christopher's mother left Washington D.C. three years after her birth for unknown reasons; her current whereabouts are unknown. Richard Dodgson, a pharmaceutical lobbyist in Washington, raised his son as a single father. Descriptions of his childhood and father by Christopher indicate that his father was a largely disinterested and absentee parent who often left Christopher to fend for himself while he concentrated on his work. Christopher was accepted to Georgetown University and majored in a Communications. He spent two semesters on academic probation, but graduated from Georgetown with a 2.8 GPA.

Career with the CIA
After his graduation, Christopher Dodgson was recruited by the Central Intelligence Agency; he underwent and passed field agent training at the Farm, receiving favorable recommendations from many of his instructors. He was highly rated for long-term undercover infiltration. One instructor remarked that he excelled in manipulating others even outside the training, and inspired trust unconsciously.

His first assignment sent him to Eastern Europe, where he gathered intelligence on arms dealers, freelance mercenaries, ambitious warlords, and underground war criminals. After 9/11, Christopher was quickly reassigned to Afghanistan: he made deals with regional military leaders, developed contacts within the populace, and spied on the workings of Al-Qaeda. His work in Afghanistan earned him an Intelligence star, and after returning to Langely for his promotion, he was again reassigned. With the War on Terror, officials at the DOD and CIA feared the use of next-generation technologies by traditional terrorist organizations. Christopher Dodgson infiltrated the arms-dealing organization known at the Foundry and was hired as an sales intermediary by the organization.

There he sent back large amounts of data about the Foundry's clients, locations, and technologies, preparing the CIA to destroy or subvert it. As part of his cover, he began dating the Foundry weapons and robotics genius Dr. Elira Kona. Shortly before a commando raid was organized to destroy much of the Foundry's operations within Europe, Christopher attempted to convince his girlfriend to leave the Foundry, suggesting that her life didn't have to be wasted in the employ of mercenary destruction. In his mission report, Dodgson reports that he did not ever actually break cover, but Dr. Kona was warned nonetheless, and carried this warning to her superiors. All Foundry operations were moved, and its clients warned of the impending danger. After this, the Foundry wasted no expense in discovering Christopher Dodgson's true identity, and placed a three million bounty for his capture. In addition, Dr. Kona, disgraced by Dodgson's seeming betrayal, began hunting him herself with her own suit of battle armor sporting the latest in Foundry antimatter technology.

Returning to the United States for a formal inquiry and possible psychiatric evaluation, Christopher Dodgson was demoted, and his talents largely wasted in mundane intelligence gathering. In Chile, Dodgson contracted an unknown illness and was flown home to the States once more due to his medical emergency. What was initially feared as an unknown toxin as later diagonosed at John Hopkins as a rare genetic disorder, a kind of muscular and nerve degeneration. He went on medical leave from the CIA, as modern medicine had only given him a year to live.

At the Trust

We had identified Dodgson's talents during his days in Afghanistan, and his medical leave offered the Trust a rare opportunity to recruit this field agent. Our scientists theorized that a modified Cold War-era Grue DNA treatment could possibly reverse the damages caused by his genetic disorder, as well as imbuing him with Grue telepathy and shapeshifting abilities. Assessments at the CIA had indicated was highly unlikely to ever make a similar mistake to the one that cost him the Foundry, and he was highly motivated to redeem his previous failures. Mr. Black approached Christopher Dodgson and offered him the chance to work for the Trust and extend his life; Dodgson readily agreed. He joined the Trust as a spy, took up the codename Errant, and underwent the Grue gene therapy.

The treatments were mostly successful, giving him traditional Grue abilities as well as very potent regenerative abilities. Further human/Grue mutations might lead to additional abilities, and we are excited by the scientific possibilities that Errant offers. However, one side effect requires the injection of a concoction of stabilizing drugs to prevent rejection and muscular/nervous degeneration. Errant carries a month's supply on his person at all times, and further drug kits when on long assignments. However, this is still a potential weakness.

Errant's three years with the Trust have proven that Mr. Black's recommendation to recruit Dodgson to be well-founded. He retains his interpersonal skills as well as those of a highly skilled CIA field agent, and still has many friends and acquaintances throughout the worldwide intelligence community. Given the severity of the Barrington situation and the personnel crises of our latest metahuman team, Errant is reassigned from his traditional assignments of espionage and sabotage to work directly with the unnamed team.
