Nice new image of yourself Pariah' date=' but how do you get the multicoloured diamond on his chest? I don't think it's in Fabrica.[/quote']

 

First and foremost, thank you! I'm glad you approve.

 

The diamond is in Fabrica, but the subdivision and coloring were edited using MS Paint. It's the most sophisticated graphics software I know how to use. :D

Since David Chew was eight years old he feared the sound of thunder. When he was eight, his grandfather who ran a small antique/pawn shop in China town was gunned down before his eyes by three members of a violent tong, who were extorting money from local merchants. David was lucky and hide among the bric-a-brac in the store and the tong members never even saw him. David spent the next ten years moving from foster family to foster family. He was a bright young man, but emotionally distant and never really fit into any of his foster families. His panic whenever a thunderstorm went on frightened his foster families in such away that usually David was moved on to another, and another.

 

Later, David went onto graduate from the University of Southern California with a degree in Criminal Justice and landed a job with the SFPD in the Asian Crime Task Force or ACT. David moved back in his grandfather's shop living in the tiny apartment over the store. It was amazing that in all the years since David lived there that the shop had never been looted or vandalized, especially considering that the amount of jade and other oddities just laying around. However, David never gave it much thought.

 

David did his best to settle in with the ACT, but during a powerful thunderstorm he had a major panic attack and promptly placed on suspended duty pending a psychological evaluation. The curvy legs of Doctor Lisa Ling caught David's eye as soon as he walked into office for his evaluation. The pair hit it off wonderfully, and Lisa became one of David's closest friends. She did her best to help him work through his brontopobia but will little success.

 

A week later, David was sound asleep in his bed dreaming of Lisa when a major thunderstorm rolled over the city. He woke to extreme nameless panic. Crouching next to his bed clad only in his pajama bottoms David waited for the worst. He was jogged from his panic by the sound of crash in the store below. Without thinking he went downstairs. Nothing seemed to be amiss, but he looked around none the less. He had just went though an aisle overflowing with figurines of various Chinese gods, demons, and who knew what, when his bare foot struck something big. David let out a few choice expletives in pain from stubbing his toe. Looking down David saw a large ornate box covered in Chinese script. His fingers tingled when his picked it up and was going to return it to its shelf, not noticing there wasn't any room for the box. Scratching his head in befuddlement David returned upstairs. His panic seemed to abate a little.

 

Upstairs David got a closer look at the box. He had never seen it's like before, nor could he make out the writing either, for some reason it seemed to move, or at least that was the best explanation he could come up with. His curiosity got the better of him, and he took the lid off the box. The inside of the box was lined with black velvet and nestled on top of the velvet was the oddest looking Chinese mask, he had ever seen. Instantly David could tell that it was really old, and he was sure he had never seen it in his grandfathers' shop when he was kid. Picking up the mask gave David a tingling feeling in his fingers, almost like an electrical shock. David was about to put the mask back when he saw that there was writing on the inside. In Chinese it said, “Punish the wicked.”

 

David didn't remember putting on the mask, but certainly he knew the electrical rush that he felt when he did. The rest of the night became almost like a dream, or even a nightmare. David was woken by Lisa banging on the stores' door. He had missed his morning appointment and she had hunted him up because she was worried about him. Together they had coffee overlooking the street. Lisa had brought a newspaper, and on the front cover was a story of a vigilante who was roaming the streets of Chinatown, combating the tongs, and the triads. The oddest part was that this vigilante who carried a pair of guns, but hadn't killed anyone yet could also throw lightning from his hands. The Chinese newspaper had dubbed this man, Lei Fong. David couldn't help but look around for the mask and only relaxed when he saw the box sitting on a shelf near his bed.

 

Since becoming Lei Fong, David hasn't feared the sound of thunder, even to the point of relishing it. Lisa, though, is quite worried for him, and the mysterious Lei Fong still stalks the night streets of China town, the blue demon mask his most telling feature. The tongs, triad, and other gangs know to stay far way from the Duke of Thunder.

I've been wanting to do a group called the Hungry Ghosts, a group of meta-humans who formed in the aftermath of Tiananmen Square. Normally Hungry Ghosts would be considered a bad thing, and it is certainly considered as such by the government, but the members of Hungry Ghosts chose the name for two reasons. They're hungry for freedom, and they consider themselves ghosts for being marginalized by the PRC. Alas, I've only been able to come up with two characters, Evening Star and Brother Ox. Any suggestions?
