Revival is dead, Omega is dead.

Character Sheet:

Name: Zeke Beauchamp

Hero Name: Zeus

Age: 25

Gender: Male

Personality: When it comes to his work, he's a very meticulous man. As both a scientist and an engineer, he must never be off his measurements. He gets pretty touchy about people entering his lab. He's gone so far as to injure an assistant who entered the lab without permission one time, much to the twins' displeasure. He has a rapport with the twins, only ever really joking around when he's around the two of them.

While he's busy being a hero, his top priority is always saving those who aren't strong enough to save themselves. Without the weak, there can be no strong- that's his philosophy. He often tries to joke on the job, as its his only outlet while he's away from his creations and his experiments.

Powers: Zeke is a descendant of the god of thunder, Thrash. As a result he is able to channel lightning with his body and is able to summon the powerful weapon Stor økse, though he is unaware that he is able to summon it to him and unaware that he is the descendant of Thrash in the first place. As far as Zeke is aware, he is just a user of lightning.

Bio:

Zeke was born to a rich family, as the firstborn male he is the heir apparent to Beuchamp Industrial, an engineering company that has ties to several top countries in the world. Despite this, Zeke has never shown any interest in running a business empire. He's always preferred to focus on his studies and his hobbies instead.

He has a kid brother and three sisters. His brother is only 8 years old, two of his sisters are 12 although one of them just turned 12 and the other is closer to 13 now, and his other sister just turned 15.

When Rosie- the girl who just turned 15- was about 12 years old she collapsed. Zeke and his parents ran over to her and cared for her for the next two weeks. They had the best doctors from all over the world examine her, but her condition was something that had never been seen and had no cure for.

When the monsters began invading the earth Zeke saw it as a golden opportunity. New blood samples and potential cures were everywhere. And as he was taking to the streets already as a hero to protect the weak, he now had a solid byproduct to his work. Being a hero wasn't a thankless job after all.

Of course he began staying later and later in his lab funded by his employers, performing more and more experiments while inventing equipment for his employer to take to the streets with themselves. Of course he knew what they needed the gadgets for, he was the one who had to design and make them. He chose not to disclose that he was, in fact, also a hero operating right under their noses.

[NivieApple]

Revival is dead, Omega is dead.

Name: Ava Lee Garrison

Hero Name: Nyx

Age: 23

Gender: Female

Personality:
Despite her difficult childhood, Ava has made it this far in life with her head held high. While might others might have snapped under the pressures, Ava has mastered the ability to ignore any harsh words or cruelness. Her job made sure of that with the cat-calls and swears from the drunk people she serves. Still, she manages to smile. Ava is an optimist by nature and always tries to make a situation seem better than it is. She loves to laugh, though she doesn't often get the chance to. When she does laugh, however, she laughs for too long, many would say. It's not her fault, she just finds things funnier than they often are... Most of the time, Ava is pretty laid back and fun to be around, but if you've pissed her off or somehow managed to get on her bad side, she won't hold back on the sarcasm and the occasional silent treatment. Still, she is a pretty forgive and forget person if she feels you are genuinely sorry.


Powers: Darkness Manipulation (Check this if curious): She can use the shadows, including her own, and simple darkness as weapons, protection, and transport through them if she is focussed enough (it's all in the link if you want more info).

Bio:
When Ava was born her teenage parents refused to take their baby girl home, so, she was placed in an orphanage and raised there. When she was about 6 months old a young couple, though not as young as her birth parents of course, took her in and began to raise her after a little over two years, just before her third birthday, her mother and her were in the car and a semi-truck swerved, causing their car to veer off the road and straight into oncoming traffic. Her mother died on the scene and the impact shocked little Ava's powers into action and the shadows in the back seat of that car protected her. When the emergency crew pulled the little girl from her car seat, they thought it was a miracle considering how busted the car was. When her father heard what had happened to his wife he broke a little inside. He could hardly bring himself to look at the little girl he had loved dearly only a few hours earlier and he brought her back to the orphanage they had adopted her from. Ava was heartbroken. Still, she managed to bounce back, despite torments from the other kids about her being a "refund baby" and other stupid taunts. She was an outcast among the other kids. They told her she was bad luck and if they hung out with her for too long no one would take them either. After years of being the last one picked for games and the one who had to clean up everyone else's messes, a new kid was brought to the orphanage after his parents had died in a fire. He was her age and, lucky for her, had a mind of his own when it came to who he hung out with. Nine-year-old Ava met him and the two grew to be the best of friends. Both outcasts, they looked out for each other and always made sure the other was doing their best and not letting words get them down. Together, they kept their hopes up and learned how to be just tough enough to be happy even when everyone tries to bring you down. Then, when she was 14 and he was 15, he was adopted. Now that she was alone in this place, surrounded by people who taunted her relentlessly, she had to work twice as hard to keep herself smiling. She was basically their only entertainment in a place where they constantly felt miserable. As she got older, though, some of the boys from the orphanage started to treat her differently. Not better though. Not by a long shot. They harassed her, tried to touch her in ways she didn't like. One night, a few weeks after her 17th birthday, one of the boys snuck into her room on a dare and climbed on top of her. She was startled awake and, in shock, she ended up making tossing the boy across the room with a tendril of the darkness. His head hit the corner of a dresser and he stopped moving. Slowly, her heartbeat pounding in her head, she stood up and looked into the darkness, reached out and felt it, slowly realizing what she had done. Still in shock, she looked down at the boy on the ground. A pool of blood had formed beneath the boy's head. Panic-stricken, she didn't even check for a pulse, though she later found out he had lived through the experience, as she stuffed whatever clothes she had and the little money she had collected over the years into her backpack and ran. Now on the streets, she found herself a job by lying about her age. It was at a small bar in a not-so-great part of the city. After a few months of working there, suffering through the cat-calls and the drunken pickup lines, she managed to find a dinky apartment with a roommate. She has lived there and worked at the same bar for the last 5 years. Whenever she has the time, she sneaks off and practices perfecting her powers, though she is constantly terrified of someone discovering her. When she does, she wears all black and a cloak that hides her face with the help of her powers. One night while she was sneaking off, she witnessed an older man being mugged and in a spur of the moment move, she forced the darkness around the mugger to press him down to the ground as she hid in the shadows, and pulled his weapon away with a tendril of shadow. The man she saved freaked out, took his stuff back and ran. She just smiled after him, called in an anonymous tip to the cops, and held the mugger there until they arrived, before hurrying back to her apartment.


Appearance:

Alter Ego Appearance: Same girl, but in a black cloak similar to this one and she uses the shadows to make sure you can't see her face at all. Only part of her that really shows is her legs.

Extra: Her costume is pretty simple because 1) she isn't exactly a super hero yet 2) she is seriously broke 3) her power is darkness... black works. She gave herself the name while doing some research as it is the name of the Greek goddess of darkness. Also, she hasn't figured out how to travel through the shadows yet. She did it once on accident a few weeks ago but hasn't been able to figure it out completely yet.

Please let me know if I goofed on something!!!

[One Mean Ghost]

Revival is dead, Omega is dead

Name: Dante de la Cruz

Hero Name: Vampire

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Personality: He does whatever he can not to think about when his parents died. If it's mentioned, he tends to shut down in conversation. For the sake of his own sanity, he blocks the memory out. Otherwise, he's inherited his mother's compassion and his father's selfless, if often reckless, attitude.

Powers: Blood Manipulation

He is able to use blood as a weapon and manipulate it at will so long as it's outside of a body. He can shape it into weapons and harden it, fire it like projectiles, and absorb it to heal his own wounds. Healing, however, takes time, and there's some things that even a Vampire can't recover from...

The biggest drawback of his power is, obviously, his dependence on blood. If he's forced to use his own blood, there's a real possibility he could bleed to death.

Bio: The son of a defense engineer and a respected doctor, Dante likely would have lived a fairly comfortable life if it weren't for the monsters. When they started to appear, his dad immediately locked himself in the family basement, trying to devise a way to give humans half a chance of fighting the monsters. His mother, meanwhile, was inundated with cases. She only managed to save maybe one or two victims of the monsters, the rest were either dead or died within moments of entering the hospital.

For Dante, at least, it still seemed like something that only happened to others. He was about to start for his Masters degree in engineering, following in his dad's footsteps. Really, if he had managed to find a girlfriend his life would have been near-perfect.

Until everything hit home. Literally.

Dante was just studying in his room when a crash reverberated through his house, followed by his mother's scream. He ran from his room forced to duck as something large flew past him. When he turned around....

He saw his mother's face contorted in a horrified scream, her lower half nowhere to be seen.

"Dante, get out of here NOW!" he heard his father roar. Everything in him wanted to run, but he couldn't make his body move. He couldn't tear his eyes off his mother's face.

That image would stay with him forever...

Truth be told, he barely remembered what happened next. Even now, the events are a fog. His dad was wearing some kind of suit he had developed and was trying to fight with all he had against two monsters.

In the chaos, Dante got his stomach split open, and his father was soon.... beheaded...

The monster's had started to move on him, and part of him knew he was going to die. Yet, some voice in his head.... maybe it was his Dad on the other side... urged him to fight.

That one word echoed endlessly in his mind, and when a monster lunged for him, he held a hand forth. He didn't know what he hoped to accomplish, but he intended to fight until his last breath...

If only he had a weapon....

The monster let out a grotesque cry as it suddenly found itself impaled. A crimson spear extended from Dante's bloody palm.

Somehow, he managed to survive that first encounter. For some reason, Fate decided it wasn't his time to die.

Fate had given him a weapon.

For you see, Dante didn't know he had any abilities until that moment, and it wasn't until after the fact that he had time to question it.

He laid to rest what remained of his parents, then poured over his father's work. Much of it went well over his head, but he at least understood a few things. With that, he designed his suit based off his father's prototype. He needed to keep his identity secret, he knew. Even with monsters attacking, Heroes were still considered a menace.

But Fate had given him a weapon, and now Vampire was on the hunt.

Appearance:

Alter Ego Appearance:

Extra: The rings on his thumbs contain hidden blades so he can easily open his palms for blood.

He wears a backpack full of stored blood to try and mitigate using his own blood.
