Welcome
 
BETRAYAL!

This is the only word that will describe future events in our fair city! Cast aside like a once beloved toy thats been grown out of, the Guild may be booted from their seat of power in Alexandria. How can this possibly happen, you may be asking yourself? Perhaps it is best to start at the beginning.

You see, there is a woman named Serania Michaels. To all outward appearances, she has it all - fame, power, money, and a killer figure to boot. However, it isn't enough to satisfy this certified genius, who also happens to be woefully insane - why does it always seem that the pretty ones are also completely batshit? But I digress... Getting back to the point, Sera's power comes from not only her position as CEO of Montmayne Engineering but also from her pyrokinetic ability.

Oh, did I forget to mention that she's a super villain? Yeah, that's kind of important.

Where was I? Oh yes, I remember now. A highly persuasive (completely psychotic) meta is in charge of a prosperous weapons research facility, and when the military gives said crazy woman several contracts, it's like giving her a green card to attempt to take over the world.

At her side is the man formerly known as Nick Stone but more famously known as Nimbus, supposed leader of all villains in Alexandria. Tragedy has turned this fire-fighting family man into a ruthless killer and his status as figurehead for villains has made him public enemy number one. Not bad for a 31 year old guy who, until a few months ago, had never so much as been in a drunken fistfight.

With Sera controlling behind the scenes and Nimbus raining terror down on Alexandria in the limelight, it's no wonder the Heroes Guild won't see the threat to their status as protectors until the plan is set in motion. What is the plan? Could the city possibly be stupid enough to evict the only people standing between them and total annihilation? That, as they say, is entirely up to you.










 

Setting
 
Alexandria is the perfect city. Clean, friendly, and extremely prosperous. This city is, was, and always will be the pinnacle of achievement. But things are changing in Alexandria, street by street, hour by hour, the city is being sucked into darkness. Entire blocks are succumbing to poverty, to disrepair, and no one will step up to fix it..

GRANVILLE, jacob
aka Revenant
user posted image user posted image

[*] hates ethics class
[*] is a closet comic book geek
[*] has every line of Die Hard memorized



I AM SUPERMAN WITH YOU
I guess you're my hero too

Your Name: Ren
Age: 26
Other Characters: -snorts-
How did you find us? -blinks-
How can we contact you? By clicking my name and picking one? -blinks sweetly-


YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE SAFE AND SOUND
but you need a hero now

Full Name: Jacob "Jake" Granville
Alias: None
Age: 23
Power: Has the ability to speed up/change molecular formation and movement at will. With a touch, he can break things down into pieces or regenerate them back together, regardless if it's a biological or non-living matter. This also allows him to "regenerate" by rearranging his own molecules. Jake's alterations are permanent unless he reverses them.

Alignment: Neutral
Occupation: College student


WHERE'S THE STREET WISE HERCULES
to fight the rising odds

Appearance: Jake is an average looking guy. He stands roughly 6'1" and he has an average build. His brown hair is typically kept short, rarely left without some sort of style to it and he has baby blue eyes. He tries to keep his face cleanly shaven. Rarely will you ever see him with anything more.

He dresses no differently than any other college guy his age. Typically dressed in jeans, vintage teeshirts, and boots. He rarely dresses up for anything. It's easier for him to just avoid those situations entirely.

Defining marks: Has a tattoo on his back.
Costume: None
Play By: James McAvoy as Leto Atreides II


I CAN'T DO THIS ALL ON MY OWN
no I know I'm no Superman

Personality: A former thief who thought it was a kick to use his knowledge to short-circuit the occasionally inconvenient alarm system, Jake was recruited into the Molecular Biology program at Alexandria University for his high IQ. Jake's disregard for authority and authority figures often lands him in a bit of trouble.

Underneath the tough, edgy attitude is a man who has a passion for poetry, a soft spot for damsels in distress, and a strong sense of loyalty and duty that occasionally causes him to ignore the rules. Jake is a typical college student. He's friendly, goes with the flow and has fun in life. He is a relaxed guy who is generally liked by all. Jake will go to great lengths to protect those he cares about.

IT'S GONNA TAKE A SUPERMAN
to sweep me off my feet

Parents: Stephen Granville and Sarah Kyle
Siblings: None
Other Relatives: None
Significant Other: None


History: Jake Granville's parents divorced when he was just seven years old. His mother despite her better judgement sent Jake to live with his father in London until he graduated school. Now, Jake is a student at Alexandria University and has been for several years. Life has never been quite normal for him since he discovered he had a special gift at fifteen.

At the time, he couldn't figure out why strange things would happen when he touched them. Jars would disappear and reappear with the lid off or sometimes even upside down with pieces missing. It frightened him yet as the time passed he realized just what he was capable of. By eighteen, Jake had a good amount of control over his abilities and began to realize that he could use his abilities to mend his own injuries. It seemed that everything was going well.

During his freshmen year of college (at 18), Jake was attacked by a thug in downtown Alexandria in front of his girlfriend. Jake was stabbed in the chest and went down. Several seconds later, he stood up and everything was fine. Both the thug and his girlfriend were frightened and ran. It was that day that Jake realized that no matter who it was, he was different and people would always be afraid of different. So he kept his ability a secret.

It was during his freshman year of college that he met Leslie Lo. They were in a class together and while he constantly slept through it, she made sure that he passed. From that day, they have been best friends.
