  2. Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine Tiergarten Background Gunter von Wolfburg is the grandson of Wilhelm von Wolfburg who was one of the original Ubermesch. His close associates knew Wilhelm officially as Der Wolf-Man des swartzen Waldes or the Wolfman of the Black Forest and as Wolfie privately. Wilhelm served honorably with the Ubermensch, like Max Uber who was the leader of the Ubermensch. When Max Uber finally rebelled Wilhelm rebelled alongside him. Ubermensch fought Ubermensch in a bloody battle that saw terrible deaths on both sides. Wilhelm barely survived the battle, one of the few who did. However, he was so severally wounded that he never attempted to use his abilities again. Wilhelm retired from adventuring, concentrating on being a member of the West German Bundestag. He was responsible for a lot of the reconstruction of West Germany even though he remained living in Allied occupied West Berlin. During his retirement, Wilhelm married a nice frau and they had several children. However, none of their children showed any signs of the shape changing uber-ability that Wilhelm possessed. Wilhelm's young son Carl, an English teacher at a private school, had child the day that the Berlin Wall fell. Wilhelm was ecstatic. Gunter was his seventh grandchild born. Holding Gunter, Wilhelm felt a kinship to Gunter that he had never felt for any of his children or other grandchildren. Wilhelm was certain that Gunter was going to be special. When Gunter reached puberty, Wilhelm's feeling proved correct. While visiting the Berlin Zoo, Gunter disappeared. No one knew where he had disappeared to. While passing the wolf enclosure, one of the wolves took a keen interest in Wilhelm. The old man had to smile. He knew that the wolf was really Gunter. Scolding the boy, he told Gunter that he needed to get out of the wolf enclosure, because he was scaring his mother. Chagrined, Gunter became an eagle and flew up and over the fence. Landing next to his grandfather Gunter returned to being a boy. His mother was surprised, and a little shocked. She didn't know much about Wilhelms past. It took several hours to call Gunter's mother down. Afterwards the boys parents and Grandfather sat down and talked about what to do about Gunter. Gunter was impulsive and with his ability to change shapes it was going to get him into trouble at school. Wilhelm decided to turn to his old friend Max Uber who had been making a name for himself as a super-hero since the war. Young Gunter and Wilhelm paid a visit to Max Uber at the Uber Aufsatz. Wilhelm explained his problems with his grandsons impulsive behavior. Gunter just sat their in awe of Max Uber. His grandfather had told him many stories about the great German hero, Max Uber, but to actually meet him in person was almost overwhelming. Max Uber even spoke to Gunter, but Gunter couldn't remember what was said he was so star struck. Max Uber called in his fellow U-Force member Immorta and asked her what to do about Gunter. Immorta seemed to grow angry at the question, and snapped. "Why Max the question is simple. Any dolt can see it clearly." Immorta paused as if trying to regain her composure. "I'm sorry Max, I didn't mean to snap like that. Ach...I need a vacation...Anyway...Doctor Saul Neuman...Do you know him?...No?..no problem...Herr Doctor Numan is setting up a special class for young Ubers at his Angelus Academy in Melbourne. I think it wouldn't take much to get an interview for young Gunter." It actually took about two months to arrange everything. Gunter was accepted into the special class, and was soon on a plane headed for Australia. Wilhelm was at the airport when Gunter left, and was the last to leave. The old man stood watching the plane fade into the distance, he was going to miss the boy. Personality Gunter is easily excitable. He rarely thinks before he acts. This ususally gets him into trouble. Gunter is a good boy but way too impulsive. Some people think he's a hot head. His mother thinks he gets it from his grandfather. Wilhelm was known for his wild ways when he was a lot younger. Gunter is also a big fan of Max Uber. He believes in Max Uber all the way. Gunter strives to be like Max Uber his idol. He has even been known to quote Max Uber. His dorm room is plastered with Max Uber posters and memoribilia. Quote "As Max Uber would say, I've heard that line before." Powers Gunter is a metamorph or shape changer. He's able to assume the shape of at least eight different animals. In his animal forms, Gunter retains his human intelligence. Even without assuming an animal form Gunter's senses are a lot keener than a normal human. His hearing is so good that he can hear sound normal humans ever could. His eyes are so strong that he can easily see at night. Physically, Gunter is in peak physical shape for a boy his age. He can run, leap, and swim better than the average adult athlete. Before coming to the Angelus Academy, Gunter was considered one of the best swimmers in Berlin. Appearance Gunter is a handsome young German teenager. He has sparkling blue eyes, and straight blond hair. Gunter wears clothing overlarge; sweatshirts, baggy jeans and flip flops. Underneath his clothes he likes to wear a pair of black speedoes. His favorite colors are black, red, and yellow.

His father had grounded him. How was he to know about the dinosaurs? Now Edward, a son of the seneschal of the Temporal Knights, was forced to sit in the class room listening to 08-324 deliver what seemed to be the most boring lecturing in all Christendom. Edward did his best to phaze out the droning drone by looking out the window at Londinium. Things were more interesting out there than in here with a stuffy robot. It was the thwack of 08-324's ruler on his desk that brought Edwards' attention back into the room. "INQUIRY: Master Edward, were you not listening? It is important to keep the chronological data in a chronological pattern. Failure to follow the chronological pattern could cause disastrous results." Edward stifled a groan and muttered, "Yes 08-324. I know full well the formula that you speak on." He tried to not to sound petulant about it, though petulance was lost on a robot. Eventually the lesson was at an end. Edward would've liked to have gone to the park, but being grounded meant he lost that privilege. He trudged his was back to his room, thinking maybe he could watch the Holo-Vid for a while before vespers. Edward had just walked past his fathers' study when he heard the old man snoring within. Peeking in he saw his father in one of his chairs fast asleep, a large book across his lap. Books were archaic, but his father enjoyed them so much that he kept a large library. A snifter of brandy sat on an end table next to him. Sitting at his masters feet, was ever faithful Einstein, an English bulldog. Einstein raised his head and gave Edward a toothy smile before going back to sleep himself. Edward had no intentions of disturbing dog or master, until his eye fell upon what was on the desk. It was his father's Temporal Gauntlet. Edward had used the gauntlet before, and the device fascinated him. Damn dinosaurs. The lights blinking on the gauntlet seemed to call Edward to it. On tippy toes, Edward sneaked up to the Temporal Gauntlet. Knowing he shouldn't he picked up the gauntlet. Maybe if he went back in time, he could make up for the dinosaurs. The thought pleased him, and he'd be back before his father even knew about it. Quietly as possible, Edward put the Temporal Gauntlet on his hand, and activated the device. It didn't take Edward long to know something was wrong. Chronologically things were the way they were supposed to be. He had set the device to take him near to the end of the Cretaceous Period, but something had gone horribly wrong. Not only was not moving to the correct temporal setting, but he was moving through space as well. Normally the Temporal Gauntlet didn't do that. Edward felt sick to his stomach when he was wrenched back into real time. He lay flat on a platform while a man stood over him. "Most curious," said the man, "an actual Temporal Gauntlet. I have heard about them in my studies at the university at Derag. However, I never knew that one would be possessed by one so short in years." Derag? Where had Edward heard of that name before. Sitting up fast, Edward got a sudden headache but he was right. The person talking to him was a Pi-Pol, an alien. "It's not mine," said Edward, "It belongs to my father. I...um...am borrowing it." "Oh," said the Pi-Pol, "I see. And might I inquire into the name you are called by? I am Doctor Topa Ga-Gan." "Um...," said Edward, "my name is Edward Orson Newton, but everybody calls me Eon." Personality Edward is still pretty much a kid. Responsibility is something new for him. His act of borrowing his fathers' Temporal Gauntlet shows how immature he really is. Edward still has a lot of growing to do. As a kid he still sees a lot of wonder in the world. Edward is also a boy who likes to see new things. His curiosity often gets the better of him, and this often times gets him into trouble. While Edward, is extremely bright, possibly more intelligent than most adults, his youth and his sense of adventure make him hard to be mad at him for long. Quote "That would be Aces!" Powers Edward wears the Temporal Gauntlet. With the gauntlet, Edward is able to effect the flow of time around him. He can speed up his own time, allowing him to act faster than anyone else could. Another thing that Edward can do while moving through time is to seemingly move from one spot to another in the blink of an eye. He can also slow down another person in time, making them seem almost sluggish. Or Edward can disturb a foes temporal continuity. By disturbing a foes temporal continuity it causes great pain for those who're not immune to the effects of time travel. In addition Edward can create a temporal field around his body that protects him from most of attacks. All of the powers of the Temporal Gauntlet are powered by the gauntlets charger. There are higher settings on the Temporal Gauntlet that Edward hasn't learned to use. Also the setting that allows him to travel through time seems to not be working. Edward isn't sure if it's damaged, or being blocked. Another item that Edward brought with him from the future is his flying disk, which allows Edward to fly. Appearance Edward is a kid of about fourteen years of age, even though he is from the future. For a costume Edward wears a skin tight yellow and black body suit. To hide his identity, he wears a red visor. On his right hand is the Temporal Gauntlet, which looks futuristic, and probably too large for Edwards small hand. Otherwise Edward is a scrawny kid who had his blond hair long on one side, and shaved on the other side. His flying disk is made from a lightweight futuristic metal that looks remarkablely like aluminum. It's barely big enough for Edward to stand on.
