BLACK TALON (Klaw homage)

 

BLACK TALON

Uriah Talon was a professional, hard bitten mercenary. An evil man who had had his hand in far two many evil deeds. He was hired by Doctor Destroyer to head up a secret expedition to the Lost World which Destroyer had discovered had one of the biggest natural deposits of base Impervium the unique metal that Astro Labs and Dr Atom had developed.

Talon’s expedition soon feel foul of the Lost world’s guardian Zan-Dar but Talon managed to escape with a small amount of the precious metal.

Back in Freedom City during a battle between The Atom Family and Destroyer, Talon was accidentally thrown into the Terminus while holding the metal during an explosion. This event changed Talon’s body irrevocably he somehow merged with both the Terminus and the Impervium. His body became a living version of the Terminus able to wield strange sonic powers but also able to be used by its denizens as a sort of gateway to our dimension.

The Impervium also changed welding itself to his hand the Terminus turned it into a strange sort of opposite of itself making it instead of its normal bright white silver a deadly dull black. Now calling himself Black Talon he blames both Zan-Dar and the Atom Family for his changes and has vowed his revenge

GROND (Hulk homage)

 

GROND

After the Atom family were created by sheer accident by the evil scheme of Dr. Destroyer the US military were intrigued by the possibility of recreating controllable super humans something that had evaded them since the failure of the Infinity Serum during world war 2. Within months Project Sunburst was created with Dr David Peter as its research head. Project Sunburst turned out to be ill fated and cursed from the very start and over the years has been responsible for more monstrous super beings than the US government is willing to admit.

The First of these disasters and probably the most powerful being created was Grond. Supposedly Peter was attempting to show his military backers his own personal faith in the project when he made himself the first test subject but it backfired horribly transforming him into a twelve foot tall green monster with four arms and arguably the strongest being on the planet. Much worse was this new beings appetite for violence and destruction and because of its limited intellect and disturbing tendency to be duped into others plans. A Frequent thorn in the side of the Atom Family who feel partly responsible for his creation and Centurion who has had some titanic battles with Grond over the years. No one is sure if Grond is a force for good or evil more likely a force for chaos as the earth’s master mage Eldrich calls him. Eldrich is in fact one of the few individuals able to reach and calm Grond and he has frequently helped “The Wizard” as Grond calls him on his strange missions with the Outsiders. The only other group Grond has worked with is Executive Sanction the official US government super team who managed to control Grond for exactly one mission with mind control tech before Grond overcoming the equipment and going on the rampage.

Often forgotten in this is the personal tragedy of Dr Peter who despite infrequent times when he regains control and returns to normal has had his life utterly destroyed by the childlike engine of destruction called Grond.

BLACK HARLEQUIN (The Joker homage)

 

BLACK HARLEQUIN

Rinaldo Maretti grew up as part of one of the oldest and weirdest circuses that travelled the east coast. Trained as a circus clown and acrobat from an early age he was obviously unbalanced a situation made much worse by his domineering mother and violent father. On his 16th birthday Rinaldo’s mind finally snapped and he went on a killing spree killing every last member of the circus including his family.

That day the Black Harlequin was born one of Freedom City’s most deadly known super villains and the Ravens arch enemy. Given unnatural strength by his extreme insanity and hell bent on causing as much murder and destruction as possible (he calls them escapades), the Harlequin is a deadly foe skilled in chemicals and always coming up with new toys to kill people with. He has been most deadly to the Raven, killing the second Kestrel and crippling the first Condor. He has fixated himself on the Raven and will not stop until he has killed or maimed everything dear to the hero.

[humantorch101]

CONUNDRUM (The Riddler homage)

 

CONUNDRUM

The man only known as Conundrum currently works as freelance operative for the seven Freedom City Mob families. They know nothing about his personal background only that he is one of the most effective behind the scenes planners and advisors the Mob has. He goes from boss to boss on a situational basis offering advice on seemingly unanswerable problems and questions they may have. Especially such annoying problems as the Freedom City superheroes such as the Raven.

They know nothing about him because there is nothing to know. Conundrum himself remembers nothing of his childhood or his identity, His first memory is putting on the Conundrum mask and deciding to make Freedom City answer the questions he had.

He has clashed continually with Raven and Kestrel and has always managed to escape their clutches mainly because he is impossible to link to his schemes. He is currently working for the King a schemer and manipulator even more skilled perhaps than Conundrum himself.

[humantorch101]

ALLEY CAT (Catwoman homage)

 

ALLEY CAT

Satrine Felice was the daughter of a wealthy politician, however when her father had to resign due to corruption after involvement with the Freedom City mob boss known as the King. Her father unable to take the shame committed suicide and little 9 year old Satrine was thrown into the Freedom City welfare system. Ten years in the system left her a damaged girl she left and went onto the streets becoming first a prostitute then a addict before coming under the wing of the Pugilist.

Rocky Dempsey turned her life around and made her see the value of her life. He started to train her in the art of self defense and she became his protégé.

She was still very effected by losing her wealth and coveted what she had lost. She also wanted to make the Freedom City mobs pay for what happened to her father. She took the identity of Alley Cat and soon became the most notorious and skilled thief in Freedom City. It was in her first clash with the Hornet that her mutant luck effecting powers first manifested which coupled with her own skills and abilities have made her a deadly foe.

She has clashed with both the Raven and the Hornet repeatedly throughout her career and has struck up on off flirtations with both of those heroes.

Although her actions have often brought her into conflict with the authorities her modern robin hood stance has mad the public love her and today no one can truly say which side of the angels she fights for.

[humantorch101]

THE PUGILIST (Wildcat homage)

 

PUGILIST

Rocky Dempsey was the most successful world heavyweight champion of all time with 35 successful defenses of his crown throughout the 1930’s. He was unmatched as a fighter in boxing history with his speed, skill, power and durability legendary.

When world war came a calling Rocky didn’t think twice. He immediately joined the new fledgling Liberty League as the Pugilist one of the most popular heroes of world war two. It was only after many adventures he was discovered to be one of the worlds first mutants albeit a low level one. He continued to serve with distinction until like the rest of the League he disappeared in the late 1940’s after another of the Timemaster’s time traveling schemes.

He reappeared as one of the first of the Liberty League to return in the 1960’s and promptly set up a training center for heroes such as the Raven, Foreshadow, Alley Cat and many others who have learned there craft as fighters at his feet.

Recently he has rejoined the new revitalized Liberty League as he has realized he has never been affected by age no doubt a side affect of his many cronal adventures with the league.

[humantorch101]

THE GREEN MAN (Swamp-Thing/Man-Thing homage)

 

GREEN MAN

Dr. Len Conway was a prominent botanist with many years of respected research when he was brought in by the Panstar corporation to study Wharton state forest. Conway soon learned too much that was good for him and found out that a part of the forest had been turned into a strange chemical swamp by Panstar and Argent who the corporation had several secret ties to.

The new Wading swamp area was highly toxic and very dangerous and when Conway confronted Panstar owner Alexander Stone, he found himself shot and left for dead in the swamp in which he so wanted to protect form the corporations exploitation.

Something very mystical then occurred. Conway did not die but instead merged with a weird mystical intelligence present in the forest calling itself “the Green”. His body reformed becoming a creature of vegetation, slime and muck that day the Green Man was born.

This strange creature soon became the guardian of the swamp and the whole forest protecting it from human interference and misuse and becoming a stanch enemy of both Panstar and Argents continued exploitation of the area.

Nether hero or villain the Green Man just is. He has killed humans mercilessly when they have threatened his domain and on other occasions has saved humans from peril and certain death.

A solitary creature he has helped the misfit team the Outsiders in some missions but has refused membership stating that the forest and the swamp are his home and what it must protect.

[humantorch101]

NIGHTHAWK (Nightwing homage)

 

NIGHTHAWK

Mark Dixon was a young circus acrobat whose entire family was killed by an early rampage of the Black Harlequin. He was saved by the Raven and taken in and eventually adopted by him. After accidentally finding out the Raven’s identity, young Mark fashioned a costume of his own and attempted to join the Raven in his fight against crime as the Kestrel. The raven was horrified and refused to train him but young Mark was so determined he had to reconsider. They become the terror of the Freedom City underworld and for years worked together. Later Kestrel joined the first version of the Next Gen and became that groups long term leader. As he grew older and more experienced Kestrel became more estranged from the Raven balking against his total control and wanting to fly free of his influence. He changed his name to Nighthawk to signal his independence and went solo and spent more time with the Next Gen.

He then became romantically involved with the alien Next Gen member Firedancer and this put more distance between himself and the Raven due to his previous romances with both the Raven’s daughter Cybermind and his associate Black Mask.

Nighthawk has emerged over the last few years as one of the most honourable and respected heroes. He has been involved in most incarnations of the Next Gen and is seen as the teams brain.

[humantorch101]

DEFENDER (Guardian homage)

 

DEFENDER

George Harmon was a top research scientist for the Canadian government he developed the Defender battle suit but due to a flaw in the design he found only he could use the cybernetic control system as it was keyed to his brain patterns.

Being only a scientist Harmon went back to the drawing board. However the Canadian government were secretly trying to put together a official Canadian super team after Quebec was greatly damaged by a super battle between Grond and Ogre.

Not wanting to rely on American “charity “ anymore the government persuaded Harmon to go on a extensive physical training program and train how to use the suit in combat.

Harmon agreed and six months later after taking the code name Defender Canada’s first real super hero was born. Tacking leadership of the Team project Harmon researched Canada looking high and low for suitable candidates for the team and a year later his task was finished and the team the Guard was active.

The Guard have defended Canada efficiently and well since then despite heavy interference from the Government, however they have come into conflict with both The Protectors and the Next Gen on frequent occasions and relations between the teams is strained.

Harmon himself has found it difficult in his Defender identity and has not really come to terms with being Canada’s answer to the Patriot.

[humantorch101]

IRONCLAD (Colossus homage)

 

IRONCLAD

Peter Drogo was born a mutant in the backwoods of the USSR. He was born with the amazing ability to change his body into a being made up of indestructible Iron. This gave him amazing durability, strength and power. He was soon persecuted though and was soon brought to the attention of the authorities in Moscow.

They soon forced him into membership of the Supreme Soviets the official super team of the USSR through threats and intimidation. However after only a few missions Peter defected on a secret mission to the USA and went on the run until he was found by Professor Psion and his team of mutant heroes the Protectors.

Peter joined the team and soon became one of its most stalwart and long running members, training hard and putting his great strength and toughness to the benefit of man and mutant kind everywhere.

SAPPHIRE (Dazzler homage)

 

Corrie Blaire is the most popular female recording artist on the planet and has been since she burst on the scene as a fresh faced sixteen year old. as her pop career skyrocketed unknown to her was a timebomb ticking away inside her, the revelation of her mutant powers!

 

The first thing Corrie knew off this was when the Minutemen invaded her new cocnert tour and took her captive. Her strange sonic and light blue mutant powers burst into life for the first time as she tried to save herself on national tv from the robot monstrosities.

 

She was no match for them however and luckily for her Ironclad of the Protectors was watching the concert. He quickly rounded up the Protectors and after a dangerous adventure they rescued Corrie from the Minutemen's clutches.

 

Her career was now seemingly in ruins however as it broke to the worlds media she was a mutant. She decided to stay with the Protectors as she learnt and trained with her new powers and they protected her from the glare of this unwelcome spotlight.

 

She stayed with the Protectors for quite some time becoming a valued member of the team, but Corrie's fanbase did not in fact desert her in fact it swelled after the mutant revelations and Corrie has recently returned to her career and is probably now one of the msot famous people on earth. She still returns to her team mates in the Protectors when needed and answers the call of those that saved her, But Corrie Blaire is back under her new stage and heroine name SAPPHIRE!

[humantorch101]

ALEXANDER STONE (Lex Luthor homage)

 

Alexander Stone, is without doubt the richest man in the world. He is also one of the most influential, with a long reach into many strands of society, economic, political and social.

 

Stone is one of the msot successful buissnessmen on the planet with his flagship company Panstar being at the cutting edge of the science/military/computer industries. Owning many other companies through a web of buissness organisations Stone has come to think of himself at the CEO of the United States and will stop at nothing to get whatever he desires.

 

Stone has become more and more involved with the super human community in recent years as he sees them as yet another tool to exploit and control. He and his company have been behind the creation of many supers over the years through failed expirements, advanced power armor etc.

 

His greatest foe is the Centurion who has time and time again eluded his control and manipulation and he hates him for it with a passion.

 

Stone will not stop until he is either controlled or humiliated, hopefully both!

[humantorch101]

Caliburn (Black Knight homage)

 

Dane Sinclair can trace his lineage back far into English history, what the young scientist did not realise was how far, as he is in fact the direct desendant of King Arthur!

A revelation made clear to him when the legendary magician Merlin managed to escape from the time stream prison that had been amde for him by his foes Morgan Le Fey and the Black Paladin.

 

Once again giving Arthur's desendent the magical sword Excalibur, Sincalir was transformed into a hero of Britain for the modern age. Taking the name Caliburn he at first attempted to deny his responsibility to Britian as it's mystic guardian and instead travelled to the US to join the Sentinels and learn how to be a hero.

 

After serving faithfully with the American super team however, he was kidnapped by The Black Paladin and had a series of adventures through British history before being rescued by a team of British superheroes called the New Knights.

 

Realising at last his destiny Caliburn has emerged as the leader of the group and now bravely defends the British Isles from all threats both mystical and mundane.

 

Armed with his mystical sword Excalibur and aided by his winged horse companion Pegasus, Sincalir is a formidable foe.

Re: My Superhero Homage Setting

 

These are great, 'torch101. I especially like the ones that combine the DC/Marvel equivalents. I did have a request:

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Tiny little voice]

 

Gambit, please.

 

[/Tiny little voice]

[humantorch101]

Adonis (Gambit Homage)

 

Remy Le Saux was born in the gutters of Marseilles, he soon found he was "different" and grew into a skilled thief, criminal and total rogue. By the time of his late teens Remy knew he was a mutant, he had an almost mystical effect on women and with his looks and rogish personality he knew how to exploit it.

He was also as quick as a cat and seemingly very, very lucky. Avoiding the French authorities time and again.

 

Mastermind when putting together his second team of the Scions of Caine came looking for the young French mutant and after resucing him from a mob vendetta after a particuarly dangerous liason with a mob bosses daughter, Remy was only to willing to be rescued.

 

He was then trained in hand to hand combat and given equipment to boost his natural cat like agility in combat. He was codenamed Adonis after Mastermind saw first hand the effect he had on the female members of the team and became a core member of the Scions and a constant thorn in the side of the Protectors.

 

Remy was not truly evil however and after witnessing first hand Masterminds ruthlessness he defected without pause over to his greatest enemies the Protectors!

 

Iniatially mistrusted and under suspicion for being a spy and making relations worse himself after attempting and some times succeeding in seducing every female member, Adonis has slowly become an accepted part of the team although even now some male members of the team will never fully trust him, but his agility, skill in combat and sheer brute luck has saved the team on more than one occasion.

[humantorch101]

Any other requests?

 

There you go my Gambit homage, hope you like him! Haha I enjoyed coming up with that, please feel free to ask for anymore you want.

Captain Thunder (Captain Marvel homage)

 

Billy Ray was the hottest pilot currently operating for the US Airforce in Europe in early 42. his skill was legendary he had downed dozens of Nazi war planes and the young pilot was becoming quite a thorn in their side.

 

However the evil sorcerors of the Third Reich had a plan for him and early one morning on a dawn raid his plane was mysteriously hit by a series of lightning strikes seemingly from a clear blue sky.

 

His plane exploded and Billy should have died, but instead he heard a strange voice calming him telling him he had been chosen for a greater purpose.

 

He came to in a strange cave in Cornwall England his burns mysteriously healed and standing over him was the legendary magician from history Merlin!

 

He explained he had protected Billy from the lightning strikes and instead filled his body with their immense mystical power, making Billy Ray a magical powerhouse with great strength, tougness, the ability to fly amoung the clouds and control over the lightning storms from wence his power came.

 

Vowing to still make a difference during the war Billy took the name Captain Thunder and soon joined the Liberty League and became maybe its most powerful member.

 

Disappering with the rest of his team mates into the time stream, Captain Thunder was one of the first to return, joining the Freedom League for a short while before striking out on his own and once again becoming one of the worls most powerful heroes.

 

He soon found romance and settled down and married his long term girl friend Mary, who soon produced two twin babies, Joanne and Freddie. Captain Thunder's children were soon to prove to have jsut as an eventful life as their father, who has recently rejoined and become a staunch memeber of the the new Liberty League.

[humantorch101]

LIGHTNING & BOLT (Mary Marvel & Captain Marvel Jr Homages)

 

Joanne and Freddie Ray were born twins, and where the children of Captain Thunder one of earth's most powerful super heroes. It became apparent at a very early age that both twins shared their fathers powers in some way. It was agreed they were most probably mutants although Merlin, Captain Thunders close ally always has maintained that there powers had as much a mystical as well a scientific origin.

 

Captain Thunder has always attempted to keep his childrens life private and to protect them as much as possible from the superhuman world. As the childrens have got older and their exubrant outgoing personalities came to the fore this has proved impossible however as both Joanne and Freddie are both strong willed and utterly determined to claim what they see as their rightful place in the superhuman community.

 

With Joanne's great strength and Freddie's great speed even now at their young ages (they are currently just turned 10) they are powerful heroes and when they join together and clasp hands their powers become even more amazing as they gain their fathers ability over thunderstorms.

 

Calling themselves Lightning and Bolt the terrible twosome have cut a swathe through Freedom Cities criminal community, continually under estimated because of their age, no criminal seems to underestimate them for long. Despite trying to keep them in school their father seems to be fighting a losing battle as their adventures take proiority, no wonder his hair is silver grey!

Remy is very cool. I was afraid to ask for him, since so many people these days seem to have a huge hate-on for the character. He'll always be my favorite.

GREEN DRAGON (Iron Fist homage)

 

Danny Raa was born to an American mother and Chinese father, not llong after his birth his parents were involved in a tragic plane crash over the Himalayas. Only his mother and baby Danny survived. His mother walked with him in her arms for days until she collaspsed at the caves to the entrance of Shamballah the legendary city of the monks.

 

Daniels mother could not be saved, but the monks took Danny in as one of their own and raised him in the traditions of their order. On his 18th birthday Danny was given his final teaching and test as he fought in single combat the mystical ghost of the Green Dragon the magical guardian of the secret valley.

 

Against al lthe odds, for the first time in over a thousand years, The dragon was defeated, this released the dragons power into Danny's body, boosting his already great martial skill and making him stronger, faster and more deadly.

 

Able now to call on the spirit of the Dragon to give him mystical aid in combat, Danny decided he would take the name of the Green Dragon and adventure out back into the world, especially his mothers homeland to give something back as he had been taught by the monk teachers.

 

Soon becomeing a superhero of sorts, this master of the martial arts Green Dragon then met another fledgling superhero Powerhouse and the two after helping each other become firm friends and even partners. Eventually forming Law and Order Inc. a unique superhero detective agency.

 

Recently, after seemingly dying after a battle and his spirit guardian bringing him back from the dead, Danny decided to expand Law and Order Inc, to make it not just a partnership between himself and Powerhouse but a real team.

[humantorch101]

POWERHOUSE (Luke Cage homage)

 

Lucas Carr was a petty criminal, involved up to his neck with Freedom City's seven mob famalies as a mob enforcer and leg breaker, he had been in and out of jail all his life he didnt think his life could get any worse, but it did!

 

He had been selected by the mob to be the first expirement in a new treatment designed to give low level muscle like him superhuman strength and toughness. The treatment went well, to well, as well as the expected powers Lucas also became bigger and most amazingly his skin became as hard as diamond and almost impervious to harm.

 

The realisation of what had been done to him drove Carr mad. He broke free and refused to do the mobs bidding. Going on the run he decided to give himself up to the FCPD for protection but he didnt know that the mob had set him up with evidence of some of his old crimes, he didnt stand a chance he was sent away once again.

 

While in jail he plotted his revenge agaisnt the mob and once released he started a one man mission to bring them to justice using the name Powerhouse.

Being one of the first black heroes brought Powerhouse much media attention but when the mob leaked details of his identity and criminal record to the press he was once again on the run and ended up with the Outsiders for a time and gained refuge with that team of misfits.

 

Attempting to clear his name after meeting the martial artist hero Green Dragon, the two formed Law and Order Inc and for the first time Powerhouse actually gained some normality in his life as he started to rebuild the damage the Mob had caused.

[humantorch101]

THE DEVASTATOR (Galactus homage)

 

The nearly omnipotent being known only as the Devastator is known and feared throughout the universe as an almost mythic force of destruction.

 

He is kown as the "Devastator of Worlds" with good reason as he is a Galaxar one of the most powerful of an ancient race of space gods. Each with their own seemingly important "reason to be".

 

It has been argued by such experts as Amazing Man that the Devastator is in fact a planetary predator, travelling the universe finding planets that no longer deserve to exist and feeding on their energies to survive. in effect a kind of planetary survival of the fittest with the Devastator as the sole judge, jury and in many cases executioner.

 

The Devastator first became known to Earth when his messenger the noble Lady Starbright sacrificed her freedom and almost her very life to aid the Atom Family in turning him away from Earth so he could not feed and destroy the planet.

 

However the Devastator of Worlds is not so easily turned aside and has returned since with other messengers such as Firewing only to once again stopped by the Atom Family and Amazing Man.

 

Although he has seemingly left us alone for a time, Amazing Man feels it is only a matter of time before he returns to attempt to destroy us and our planet once and for all.
