Name: Guy Perkins AKA Hood
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Conduit/Citizen/Gang Member(pick one): Conduit
Powers ( If applicable. Be descriptive, please!):
- Enhanced Intelligence: Normally, Guy's intelligence would have greatly surpassed that of Jason Cregnix. However, due to violent head trauma at the time of him gaining his powers, his IQ figure has been greatly reduced. He is, however, still much smarter than the average person. He can't exactly construct fantastic machines the way Cregnix can, however he does have a knack for building useful gadgets such as his grapnel.
Weapons:
-Electrically Charged Bolas
-Regular Bolas
-Shuirkens, as well as a high tech shuriken firer on both of his gloves.
-Electrically charged Shurikens
-Smoke Shuirkens(Shurikens with a highly condensed smoke bomb attached, this shuriken deals minimal damage and applies a thin layer of fog around it's point of impact)
-Blunt Shurikens, basically shurikens without the pointy edges.
-Explosive shurikens. he has shurikens that can explode with about enough force to blow a doorknob off.
-Built In Brass Knuckles, Guy has brass knuckles naturally integrated into his gloves.
-Magnet Plates. Guy has magnetic plates built into his glove that he can activate a de-activate at will. These plates can seriously screw with machines by messing with their wiring, and can also mess with people who have metal bone replacements.
-Two 8 inch combat knives. There's a button these knives that can make the, heat up enough that it can cut through metal like butter. He has two of these, with one concealed in his glove and another one concealed in his boot.
Gadgets:
-Marbles
-Explosive Marbles, Guy has some marbles that are equipped with a small explosive, not enough to seriously hurt, but certainly enough to frighten and leave a burn. Sort of like firecrackers.
-EMP Grenade. He carries around a few EMP grenades so he can pretty much say "ha ha no fuck you" to machines like cars that may be trying to run him over.
-His Glove. Guy's glove is his pride and joy, equipped with a palm-top laptop, including various USB drives and hacking ports. The glove also comes equipped with a handy shuriken shooter. The glove also has magnetic pads he can use to mess with wiring of machines.
-Grapnel. He has a grappling line that he can use to makes ziplines from place to place, or just use it for it's main purpose as a grappling hook.
-Pinhole cameras. Guy has little cameras that link up to his glove that he can leave about to keep an eye on things in certain areas.
-Fingerprint dusting kit. Guy brings an advanced fingerprinting kit around with him.
-Motorized Lockpick. Guy has a specialized machine that has been calibrated to thousands of different lock variants and can pick most of them in thirty seconds, accompanied by a small whirring noise. However, this device will occasionally run into a lock it cannot pick.
-Smoke Bombs/Pellet, because who
doesn't need 'em?
Skills:
-He has trained himself extensively to be a detective, however still lacks field experience and will likely mess up.
-Computer Expert. Guy is an amazing computer whiz.
-Martial Arts. Guy knows several disciplines of martial arts, however he lacks any actual experience with these in the field, and will likely not be able to use these arts to their full potential.
-Stealth. Guy is decent at stealth, though he thinks himself a master. He will certainly get detected more than once.
-Acrobatics. Guy has trained himself to be an acrobat. He's better than most, but... Well, he'll be landing on his face more than once.
Notable Weaknesses:
One of Guys major weaknesses is that he lacks field experience with most of his talents that don't revolve around computers, and he'll certainly make mistakes. He will also more than likely have the crap beaten out of him, given that while his armor protects him some, he's still pretty much human. Guy is also fairly gullible, despite his intellect.
Any affiliations: The Romans
History (Five sentences minimum, but the more the better!):
Guy was born and raised in Suburban Empire City, to a rather nerdy father and mother. Both of them were gamers and nerds and they loved taking him into the City to their favorite comics place. Guy grew up loving the hero mythos, heroes like Spiderman and certain Green Lanterns and Green Arrow appealed to him for their typically happy joking nature. He instilled upon himself values of justice and such, without really ever thinking he'd get a chance to be like one of them. He was pushed around a lot im Middle School, for being a huge nerd and altogether scrawny.
Nathan was very close to the blast when it occurred, he was driving to the comic shop with his parents, and they were a mere block away. When the blast happened, Guy's car was blasting into away into a nearby shop, the force of which sent guy flying through the car window. He suffered massive head trauma when he landed, stunting the growth of his powers. As he tried to use what little strength he had left to get back to his parents, out cold in the car, the car blew up in a fireball, taking them with it.
Guy was inconsolable for weeks, but slowly came to terms with it as he realized one of his lifelong dreams were coming true- Superheroes were real. Jason Cregnix, The Darkness, Lucas Rice, Thomas... He loved The Spartans! For years he trained himself in any ways he could think of, granted, he didn't focus on the physical side of things as much as he should have, preferring to build neat gadgets and Rube Goldberg machines.
Eventually, he decided that he would move to Seattle, as conduit activity was popping up there, and The Spartans need a Western branch! So, he decided, without ever meeting any of The Spartans, that he'd found it! He called it The Romans, after the ancient civilization that was located geographically West of Sparta(Though The Romans did eventually conquer the Spartans, Guy chose to ignore that part...). Currently the Romans are going strong, with two members- Guy and his attack dog Rusty, also known as Hood Hound. Together the two patrol Seattle, looking for crime and new members!
Appearance (if you don't feel like filling out the appearance form below. Four sentences at least, please. Pictures allowed to compliment.):
(Imgaine without the Spiderman hoodie... Please...)
Guy has a light orange-ish hair color, and stands at rather short for sixteen at about 5' 6". He weighs roughly 140 pounds, and has a more muscular build, however not nearly as muscular as someone like The Darkness or his sidekick. IN public he'll typically wear a dark green hoodie with many superhero t-shirts, possibly one he made himself with either Jason Cregnix or The Darkness on it. He has bright green eyes.
Costume:
Guy's alter ego, Hood, wears a interesting costume. It's not really tights like The darkness wears, but not civilian attrite anyways. Guy's alter ego wears a dark red hoodie with the Hood up at all times. He also wears very tough black pants. On the inside of this however, is the real juicy bits of his costume, the armor-mesh plating. This armor is directly uplinked to the rest of the bells and whistles of his costume, and is comprised of a technologically weaved Kevlar and nomex mesh. The armor offering no main functionality other than protection uplinks to Guy's costume's goggles, as pictured. The suit monitors guys physical condition and it's own physical condition and it uploads this data to the goggles, which give Guy a real time HUD of his health on his goggles. One other thing the armor does is send out radar, giving him a radar on his HUD as well, granted this is a primitive radar that has trouble distinguishing between friend and foe, human and cat. His goggles have the ability to increase their opacity as well, from clear as pictured to blacked out, while still offering Guy perfect visibility. Guy also wears the gloves mentioned earlier in this character sheet, and two combat boots made from leather, nomex, and rubber.
Personality:
Guy is a friendly go-lucky kind of person. He's not that serious and grim about most things, and in fact sometimes has trouble with being serious when he needs to be. He's a HUGE superhero nerd, looking up to The Spartans as his heroes, particularly The Darkness and Jason Cregnix. It is very easy to gain Guy's trust, and despite his intellect, he's very gullible.
