Blue BlazerParticipantThanks, dude. There is definitely a lot of Dr. Manhattan inspiration in him. However, I wasn’t actually going for word play in his name, it’s just a cool word (an incredibly small unit of length used to express the size of atoms, molecules, etc.)
Blue BlazerParticipantYeah, and I haven’t even been here that much.
Blue BlazerParticipantThanks, buddy!
Blue BlazerParticipantAlias: Angstrom
Real Name: Grady Howell
Genre: Superhero
Powers/Special Skills: body composed of bioelectromagnetic energy; control of electricity and magnetism
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: particle attractor
Affiliations: none
Other Aliases: none
Status: active
Bio:
Dr. Howell was, in his previous life, a renowned scientist at the Institute for the Development of Energy Alternatives (IDEA), where he was heading a team attempting to harness, manipulate, and use the very bioelectromagnetic energy within living things. Dr. Howell’s intent was to collect this relatively low-level energy, amplify it, and use it to power machinery.But one day, the actions of an industrial saboteur caused a massive power surge in Dr. Howell’s equipment, and he was bombarded by a barrage of accelerated particles that transformed him into a living cloud of bioelectromagnetic energy. In his newly acquired state, Dr. Howell has a vast control over electricity and magnetism, but his brain has also been altered. He perceives reality in a different manner than normal humans, a manner he believes to be far superior and greatly advanced. Though he is primarily on the side of good, occasionally his perspective leads him to use his powers in destructive or confusing ways. His justification for these strange outbursts is an awareness of a universal stream of events that sometimes require his intervention to manifest into what he calls “the story of time,” which will end in some immense event that he must ensure will happen through his actions.
Usually, Grady is able to maintain his human form through light concentration, but when he is in a particularly stressful situation, that concentration can be broken enough that he will start to come undone. Therefore, he designed and built a device that attracts the particular energy of which he is composed and helps keep him together.

Blue BlazerParticipantAlias: Angler
Real Name: Harland Watkins

Affiliations: anyone willing to pay him
Other Aliases: Octopus, Swordfish, Killer Whale, Devil Ray
Status: at large
Bio:
Harland was once a Navy Seal, well-versed in underwater espionage and demolition. But the thrill of his patriotic friends did not seem to course through him, so he left the service and went to work as a hired aqua-terrorist. To avoid capture, Harland took on various aliases, all aquatic animals, but the one he uses most is Killer Whale. Harland wears a black wetsuit, and attached to his scuba tank is a booster he designed himself, which propels him swiftly through the deep waters of the oceans. Many electronic explosives are magnetically attached to his suit, for easy access and to avoid dropping any.The Angler suit comes equipped with two large fish hooks attached to the gauntlets, special underwater lenses in the helmet, and a sophisticated breathing apparatus.
Harland has had many a run-in with undersea superheroes Blue Marlin and Waverunner, but always manages to evade capture.

Blue BlazerParticipantAnother fierce competition is at an end. I’m beginning to think the challenge of picking a winner for these is more daunting than the contest itself. However, as the Highlander would say, there can be only one. And that one is…

SYNDROME
BIO
He was born with a complete immunity to any and all disease and virus, though he is an extremely susceptible carrier. Because of this Syndrome is unable to have physical contact with anyone, but must instead confine himself to a containment suit. The gas mask he wears shields his germs from entering the atmosphere. After living like this for many years, Syndrome slowly became insane and began to allow himself to expose others to his vast collection of ailments. It is imperative to the survival of the human race that Syndrome be neutralized immediately.RESTRICTIONS

Blue BlazerParticipantName: Hank Barman
Alias: Anchor
Genre: Superhero
Powers/Special Skills: Able to increase the density of his body exponentially, making him more solid (and thus more durable and resistant to injury), and heavier (and thus harder to move), all while retaining his normal size and shape
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: Power House, Honor Guard
Other Aliases: none
Status: active
Bio:
Hank’s mutant power didn’t manifest itself into he hit puberty. He was no good at sports at that time, but when he would play backyard football with his neighborhood friends, he suddenly became extremely hard to tackle. Hank and his parents finally realized something superhuman was going on when he fell through the floor of his bedroom and onto the kitchen table below.
Unable to cope with a son who could become a metric ton in seconds, Hank’s parents enrolled him in the Power House, where he was able to finish of his secondary education and learn to control his power. During his time there, Hank began to work out heavily, needing a way to still move himself when his arms and legs got heavy. By the time he had graduated from Power House, Hank had turned himself into a muscle-bound hulk, though if he densifies his body to weigh more than about 500 lbs, he’s unable to move.
Hank left Power House and was accepted at Intrepid University, where he received degrees in English Education and Creative Writing. He worked his way through college as a bouncer at a local night club. After graduation, Hank returned to his old school to join the faculty and the super team of Power House, known as the Honor Guard.Picture:
