Mr. VaudevilleParticipantAbsolutely excellent. One of the best I’ve seen. Such great posing!
And thanks for including the line art pic.
Mr. VaudevilleParticipantNotes: You can thank my girlfriend for this one. I think she was going for a Jessica Jones/Luke Cage type character, considering how much Netflix goes on around here. She was against the blue skin, but *raspberry*. I’ve got a few more characters to come to complete Apex Squad and Iron Patrol, but then I’ll finally be going back and writing some origin stories, as well as doing a team of more traditional supervillains.

Mr. VaudevilleParticipantAh, I love electricity-themed heroes! Your color schemes remind me of my own, so I like them. ;-] From this page, I like your Blue Rune design the best. Seeing your character’s suits sans body/hair pieces has given me an idea, so I will give you a shout-out, when I make use of that idea. Cheers!
Thanks, dude!
Glad to provide the inspiration! Wasn’t sure about posting the pics of the suits/costumes on their own, but I’ll keep it up. I like the idea of seeing the suits as they would be on display in the characters ‘lair’ (one of my favourite examples is Nite Owl’s suit in a case in that one scene in Watchmen).
Excited to see what you come up with!

Details/Limitations: Able to levitate and fly indefinitely at a top speed of around 180mph/290kph; Can alter his molecular structure at will to become semi-transparent and quantum tunnel through solid objects, or to allow enemy attacks to pass through him – this power also effects any people or objects he’s touching at the time, including his costume.

Mr. VaudevilleParticipantFor someone who hates Pink, ‘Pink Eraser’ is great. Brilliant concept/play on words, and the facial expression/shading is excellent.
Nice edit on ‘All Star’.
Mr. VaudevilleParticipantReally liking your sci-fi characters and uniforms. Love the detail you put into the back-stories, too. Would definitely read the adventures of the Galactic League.
I look forward ward to seeing more!
Mr. VaudevilleParticipantNotes: It may not look like it, but I was messing around with this design for weeks trying to get things right. This is as good as I’m going to get it for now. Also, files didn’t upload in the order I selected. The first image should be last.

Hair Type: Long, Straight

Details/Limitations: Able to move and react faster than the human eye can perceive. Fast enough to intercept and catch bullets; she can easily travel at well over 2,500 feet per second (1,700mph) – over twice the speed of sound – although her top speed is unknown.

Physical Weaknesses: Only average physical strength, no remarkable combat abilities without powers. Powerful electronic surges and sufficiently powerful EMPs can temporarily disable her powers.
Mental/Emotional Weaknesses: Occasionally suffers with sensory overload due to the speed at which her brain processes information.Personality and Relationships

Mr. VaudevilleParticipantNotes: This character is based on the ‘real life superhero’ that used to patrol my town. Sadly, he stopped operating and moved away, retiring the character to the best of my knowledge – I know him indirectly through mutual friends. I’ve taken some liberties with the character; real names are not used, he didn’t use a spear, etc, and his in universe ‘origin story’ is original.
Profile
Alias: The Dark Spartan
Legal Name: Daniel Forester
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Ethnicity: English
Occupation: Accountant; Office worker; Vigilante; Hero
Height: 5′ 11′
Body Type: Fit, Toned
Hair Colour: Dark Blonde
Hair Type: Grown-out, Wavy
Eye Colour: Green
Skin Colour: White/Light Tan
Species: HumanPowers and Abilities
Powers: Almost indestructible shield and spear, near superhuman willpower.
Details/Limitations: Shield and spear are made of a rare and nearly unbreakable metal alloy which can only be destroyed by heat equal to the surface of a star, or by certain equally rare chemical agents/acids. Alongside almost peak physical conditioning, he possesses near superhuman, iron willpower; this gives him an unusually high tolerance for pain and the ability to resist basic psychic attacks, as well as the drive and determination to battle super-powered adversaries.
Abilities/Skills: Accounting/finance/business, Karate, Krav Maga, spear fighting.
Costume: Impact absorbing full-body armour, helmet, gauntlets, and boots over a fireproof/stab proof mesh bodysuit.
Weapons: 6ft metal spear
Gadgets/Tech: Near indestructible shield (can also be used as a weapon); communications gear including multi-band radio and police scanner contained in helmet; hidden compartments in the shaft of the spear contain various tools, such as a flashlight, cable ties/handcuffs, basic medical supplies, a fire blanket, and a length of thin, tough rope.
Physical Weaknesses: Relatively vulnerable without body armour and shield.
Mental/Emotional Weaknesses: Vulnerable to mid-high level psychic attack.Personality and Relationships
Primary Traits: Indomitable, determined, confident, persistent, honest.
Likes: Movies, reading, comic books, video games, justice.
Dislikes: Corrupt officials, violence, dishonesty, celery.
Habits/Quirks: Stoic and brave, his preferred method of crime-fighting is old school street patrol, wherever the authorities are slow to react or turn a blind eye. His fierce determination and goal-driven mentality can come across as arrogance to strangers, and he can be a sore loser at times, though his heart is firmly in the right place. Even when losing, he’s known to keep getting back up no matter the odds. Doesn’t always agree or get on with other superheroes, but his actions as a vigilante hero have secured their respect many times times over.
Fears: Losing his fiancé, failing as a crime-fighter.
Family: Mother and Father – Retired.
Romantic Interests: Emma Ellis (Fiancé).
Allies: The Silver Thorn, Kali, Interface
Affiliations: Iron Patrol, Society of European Superheroes.

Alias: The Blue Rune
Legal Name: Brandon Reaves
Gender: Male
Age: 35
Ethnicity: African-American
Occupation: Archeologist; Historian; Superhero.
Height: 6′ 2″
Body Type: Athletic, Muscular
Hair Colour: Black
Hair Type: Neat, thick
Eye Colour: Dark Blue
Skin Colour: Dark Brown
Species: SuperhumanPowers and Abilities
Powers: Runic magic, force-field projection, astral projection, animal control, healing factor, healing touch.
Details/Limitations: Magic runes tattooed on his biceps, chest, and back allow a variety of powers, including; force-field projection, astral projection, animal control and communication, healing factor, and healing touch. Additionally, by meditating and drawing elaborate runic shapes in the air, he can create invisible barriers, harmful curses, and charms of protection applied to people or places, locate people or objects, and even see visions of past activity in his current area – although these powers take time to use. The runes on his skin give off a weird blue glow when using his powers.
Abilities/Skills: Written and spoken languages, symbology, archaeology, Boxing, Judo, knife/short sword fighting.
Costume: Bulletproof, stab proof, impact-resistant breastplate and gauntlets; fireproof and stab proof leg-wear, cloak, and mask; fireproof boots; utility belt and sword belt.
Weapons: One steel short sword; one hunting knife.
Gadgets/Tech: Utility belt contains caltrops, cable ties/handcuffs, and other small tools.
Physical Weaknesses: Temporarily weakened physically after using powerful abilities, though only for a few minutes. Poor swimmer.
Mental/Emotional Weaknesses: Some powers require a trance-like state and take time to use, leaving him vulnerable for the duration (and for a time afterwards, see above). Weak against strong psychic attacks.Personality and Relationships
Primary Traits: Mysterious, gritty, intelligent, brave, inquisitive.
Likes: Museums, historical arts, travel, camping, solitude, justice.
Dislikes: Cruelty to animals, art theft/cultural theft, organised crime, pickles.
Habits/Quirks: Bright and quick-witted, a competent archeologist and exemplary historian. Once social and outgoing, he became quite private after gaining his powers, withdrawing considerably from his social and professional life to focus on the study and use of his abilities, which he kept secret – although he maintains a wry sense of humour and still enjoys keeping a close circle of friends. Holding a deep love and respect for ancient history and artefacts, he will feverishly investigate any thefts from museums and galleries as a personal matter. Adopting a dark, intimidating, and mysterious personality as the Blue Rune, his powers make him an unrivalled detective, and he can more than hold his own in combat. As part of a team or squad he makes an excellent support unit. Prefers to work at night.
Fears: Drowning, the loss of cultural artefacts.
Family: Patrick Reaves (Brother).
Romantic Interests: Lisa Reaves (Ex-wife).
