Arctic Fox is the representative from Alaska. She is able to grow steel claws from her hands and has heightened senses.
So I’m starting a new campaign; a U.S. federal team of superheroes called The Fifty, featuring one hero from each state.
First up is Yellowhammer, the representative from Alabama. He gains immense strength, speed, stamina, and durability through the magical hammer he wields. The hammer also speaks to him, but refuses to communicate with or grant any of its power to any other human.

Bio:
Nothing is known at this time of James’s parents. He has a younger sister, Rosemary, who is the superheroine Echo and possesses a similar ability. It is assumed that one or both of their parents wielded a similar power. Regardless, their parents are nowhere to be found, least of all by their children.James attended Caligo Central High School, easily concealing his talent from his peers and foster parents. He discovered that he could create and fire off blasts of light and sound energy when he went through puberty. For most of his life, James was content to amuse and entertain himself with this power, practicing his aim in the deep forest near his home. He kept mostly to himself.
James went to college at Malachi University and, upon graduation, got a job as an airplane mechanic at the Ford City airport. This job came with the bonus of getting to fly for free a certain number of times per year. On one of these trips, the plane on which James was a passenger was hijacked by Muslim radicals, and he was forced to unveil his power to the public, neutralizing and apprehending the three terrorists. When he was praised for his heroism, James decided to use his unique ability for the greater good as the superhero Energy Arrow. He gained immediate attention and, after changing his alias to Archer, joined the second version of the Dynamos, Team Alpha Red. Over the next few years, he has become the team’s leader.

Bio:
Tim was an average slacker in his early 20’s and an avid gamer. Every chance he got, he would be in front of one game console or another, lost in a virtual world that was always more exciting than his own. He had even made somewhat of a name for himself by competing in and often winning various gaming competitions.But Tim’s life took a drastic turn when he ordered the newest gaming system on the market. The system arrived at his house, a full body suit allowing Tim to be completely immersed in the games he installed on it. What Tim didn’t know at first was that his particular suit had been greatly modified by its creators, and that Tim was to be the test subject for a brand new form of technology. To his surprise, it created a Tim-sized virtual person who could interact in the real world at Tim’s command. Every movement Tim made while wearing the suit was mimicked by this entity. Though it was little more than a program, the being was tangible enough to physically manipulate objects.
Tim hit the streets with his virtual double and wowed crowds with its amazing abilities. Before long, he was asked to join the superhero team known as N-Force. Now he is able to send the virtual man into combat without immediate danger to himself. He also later gained the ability to create his own virtual weapons and armor with the suit.

Alias: Arbor
Real Name: Toby Stephens
Genre: Superhero
Powers/Special Skills: able to turn into a humanoid tree
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: The Honor Guard
Other Aliases: none
Status: active
Bio:
Toby’s power stems from an accidental overdose of the X-13 chemical during an operation to regrow his arm, which had been severed at the saw mill at which he worked. The idea behind the experimental procedure was that since plants can regrow their stems and branches, combining a fraction of that with Toby’s DNA could help him regain normality in his life. But the surgery worked all too well. Not only did Toby rapidly regrow his arm, but he was given the ability to turn into a man-like, mighty tree, giving him great strength, resistance to harm, and his healing factor. He was quickly recruited into the Honor Guard, the team sponsored by Mr. E and Powerhouse school. His day job at the school is teaching botany.Pictures:
Alias: Arana
Real Name: Miguel Torres
Genre: Supervillain
Powers/Special Skills: eight arms
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: Sphinx Foundation
Other Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
Miguel was a petty thief on the streets of Caligo. He did well at his job, but something inside of him craved to be better. After hearing of the Sphinx Foundation’s moral ambiguity in its business dealings, Miguel approached the corporation to strike a deal. If they could augment his abilities as a burglar, he would in turn commit crimes for them. He turned out to be exactly what they were looking for. Scientists at Sphinx had just developed a serum containing spider DNA. The theory was that if it was administered to a human, he or she would gain certain arachnid abilities, such as the power to climb up walls and generate a web. What they did not expect was that neither of those things would happen, or that something far more disturbing would. Over the next few days, Miguel, in a state of almost constant agony, grew six extra arms from his torso. Driven slightly mad by this transformation but still indebted to Sphinx, Miguel became Arana, the eight-armed criminal.Pictures:
Megaera is named after one of the three Furies from Greek mythology, tasked with punishing the wicked. This tough-as-nails vigilante is also a member of an all female group called the Furies, who dole out brutal justice to any who cross them.
