Your challenge for this week is to create the coolest character in the best illustration possible using any version of the HeroMachine that has something to do with the broad category of "weather". You could just use a name of a meteorological phenomenon like "Zephyr" or "Hurricane", or you could design a weather wizard from a fantasy role playing game, or simply a super-hero with some sort of weather-related powers. Classic examples would include "Weather Wizard" from the Flash comics, "Iceman", "Storm", or "Emma Frost" from the X-Men, the Red Tornado from DC Comics, or so on.
Poor examples would be something like DC's "Geo-Force", who can control the Earth, but not weather; the Human Torch, because fire isn't really related to weather; or The Hulk, who's a force of nature but not a force of weather.
The person with the winning entry as selected by our expert panel (i.e. me) will win their choice of either a portrait or item to go in HeroMachine 3, or a custom black and white "Sketch of the Day" style drawing (also by me). The rules otherwise are the same as always:
- All entries must be in JPG or PNG form (BMPs are too big), posted to a publicly accessible website (like ImageShack, PhotoBucket, the UGO Forums, whatever);
- Entries must be made as a comment or comments to this post, containing a link directly to the image and the character name;
- The image cannot have been used in any previous HeroMachine character design contest -- we had an "Elementals" contest and a "Nature" contest a while back, for instance, and I don't want repeats of stuff you already did for those;
- Please name your files as [your name]-[character name].[file extension]. So DiCicatriz, for instance, would save his "Bayou Belle" character image as DiCicatriz-BayouBelle.png.
- Please make the link go directly to the image (like this) and not to a hosting jump page (like this). If you see "preview" or "rotate" somewhere in the link you're probably doing it wrong.
- All entries must be in by next Monday, when I'll choose a winner, who will receive his or her choice of any item or a portrait to be included in the final HeroMachine 3 program, or a "Sketch of the Week" style black and white illustration.
Good luck everyone!

Well, here it goes. My first entry into a contest.
This guy is a member of a team of super-powered teenagers who fight supervillains and evil when they’re done with their homework. His name is Zero Kelvin, the team’s second-in-command and the coolest head in the room most of the time.

Emma Frost? Weather-related? I thought she was telepath.
Jeff, are we allowed to use Dropbox for our character entries?

This is Storma, that name was given to her at birth to warn people. her emotions are so deeply linked to the weather all around the world that even the slightest facial or verbal expression of any kind of emotion might set off hurricanes or something, so she usually has a completely neutral expression and speaks in a monotone all the time, even when, inside, she’s angry, happy, ect.. The angry look on her face as a result of some idiot in her eighth grade math class making one too many jokes about her gothic wardrobe.

Sunny was a normal teenager from California. She was a sun worshiper, in the moder sanes, and lived a relatively normal life until a couple of years back.
At that tragic day she was sunbathing on the beach when she herself started to emit light and warmth. Her bright fire scorched her fellow beach goers. Only at nightfall her light was gone. Knowing that she could not comeback to her family for fear of torching them she sought out enlightenment.
Her journey to understand her new gift led her to mount Olympus itself. There Apollo showed her what she is, a solar goddess. She learned how to use her gift and sought out to bring warmth and light wherever she is needed.

Samurai Pineapple, if you’re on the image page, there should be a box in the lower left that has headings such as: E-Mail and IM, Direct Link, HTML, and Image Link. Just copy the direct link URL, and that will allow you to put the direct link up in the forum.
oh and just for u know $hit$ and giggles after i posted him i decided to photo shop sunburst, andonce i was done i figured hey y not throw him on my comic book, sooo enjoy!

Cormac (3): Dropbox is fine.
Samurai Pineapple (20): Myro’s right, there will be a big section either to the left of the image titled “Share this image”. Also, see the next paragraph …
Jason Ransom (21, 23): You need to follow that advice as well, currently your link goes to the jump page with all the PhotoBucket crap all around it, it takes me forever to load. You’re currently using this link, from your browser’s address bar:
http://s121.photobucket.com/albums/o229/jimmyhulk/?action=view¤t=sunburst3.jpg
You need instead to use the link from the “Direct Link” box in the aforementioned “Share This Link” section:
http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o229/jimmyhulk/sunburst3.jpg
Click on each of those links and see the difference — yours goes to a page with all the PhotoBucket stuff all around it, while the second one just goes to the image and nothing else.
Samurai Pineapple, the exact same thing would apply for you.

Atlas Sims was a very smart and very gifted meteorologist. From an early age he had loved everything about the whether. However, kids at school always picked on him and made his life hell because he was a nerd. When he finally graduated college with a degree in meteorology, he was turned down at his first job interview with a major news network because he didn’t, “quite have the right look for the job”. That was the last straw for Atlas. He decided to make everyone pay for making his life miserable. he used his great intellect to fashion a deadly supersuit complete with energy blades, jet rockets, and an antenna on his helmet that allows him to control the atmosphere at his whims. Now, out for revenge, he is the deadly super villain known as: Atmosfear! And fear him you shall.

Mike Stern was the assistant to a very well respected explorer who was on an expedition in the Amazon. Mike got lost from the group and found an old hut. He went inside, not knowing that the hut belonged to a shaman. not being the sharpest of guys, Mike began messing around with the strange stuff he found. it wasn’t until he picked up a strange lizard skull and proceeded to use it as a baseball, that he noticed the woman standing behind him. She towered above him and said, “If yo insist on being a dummy, then I shall make you one!” there was a flash of light, and Mike found himself lost somewhere in the jungle. when he moved he noticed something strange. it wasn’t until he got to a pool of water and saw his reflection that he realized he had been turned into a living crash test dummy. after a while, he found his way back to civilization. most people just thought he was a guy in a costume. then he tried to cross a street without waiting for the cross walk. he was hit by a car, but unhurt. a man from the superhero group “The Neo Champions” saw this and recruited him. now he is Crash. surprisingly fast, and able to take almost any amount of damage unscathed, and also strangely, acting as a human lightning rod that draws any electricity nearby towards him. Crash acts as “The Neo Champions” human shield. no one gets hurt when “Crash the Human Punching Bag” is around.

Saint Erasmus of Formiae, better known as St. Elmo’s Fire, The Patron Saint of Kicking A**: SAINT PAIN!
http://www.deviantart.com/download/182404172/saint_erasmus_of_formiae_by_vonmalcolm-d30ljyk.png
Via Wiki:
According to his legend, when the persecutions of the Emperor Diocletian began, “Erasmus was called before a judge, beaten around the head, spat upon and ‘besprinkled […] with foulness.’ He was then beaten with leaden mauls until his veins broke and burst. Erasmus suffered all of these punishments with tremendous willingness. Erasmus was then thrown into a pit of snakes and worms, and boiling oil and sulfur were poured on him but ‘he lay therein as he had lain in cold water, thanking and loving God.’ Then thunder and lightning came and electrocuted everyone around save Erasmus. Thus the saint was protected from the lightning. Diocletian had him thrown in another pit, but an angel came and slew all the vipers and worms.”
Then came the Western Roman Emperor Maximian who, according to Voragine, was “much worse than was Diocletian.” Erasmus would not cease preaching the Gospel, even though he was “put into a pan seething with rosin, pitch, brimstone lead, and oil, [which were] pour[ed] … into his mouth, [from] … which he never shrank.” A searing hot cloak and metal coat were both tried on him, to no effect, and an angel eventually carried him away to safety.”
“And when this holy man came before the false gods” – to which he was to be forced to sacrifice, they “fell down and broke all in pieces, and consumed into ashes or dust.” That made the emperor so angry he had Erasmus enclosed in a barrel full of protruding spikes, and the barrel was rolled down a hill. But an angel healed him. Further tortures ensued:
His teeth were … plucked out of his head with iron pincers. And after that they bound him to a pillar and carded his skin with iron cards, and then they roasted him upon a gridiron…and did smite sharp nails of iron in his fingers, and after, they put out his eyes of his head with their fingers, and after that they laid this holy bishop upon the ground naked and stretched him with strong withes bound to horses about his blessed neck, arms, and legs, so that all his veins and sinews that he had in his body burst.”
The version of the “Golden Legend” did not relate how Erasmus fled to Mount Lebanon and survived on what ravens brought him to eat, an interesting pre-Christian mytheme. When he was recaptured, he was brought before the emperor and beaten and whipped, then coated with pitch and set alight (as Christians had been in Nero’s games), and still he survived. Thrown into prison with the intention of letting him die of starvation, St Erasmus managed to escape.
He was recaptured and tortured some more in the Roman province of Illyricum, after boldly preaching and converting numerous pagans to Christianity. Finally, according to the legend, his stomach was slit open and his intestines wound around a windlass. This late legend may have developed from interpreting an icon that showed him with a windlass, signifying his patronage of sailors.

Lydia Watson was well on her way to being director of the London branch of First Moravian Bank when she was attacked on her way to the Underground station. While struggling with her attacker, she was somehow able to become insubstantial and escape his grasp.
After arriving safely home, she practiced her new found skill, and realized she could also pull water vapor out of the air to coalesce around her. She now protects those wandering the dark streets of London using her powers, and goes by the name London Fogg.

DOCTOR DROUGHT
The year: 1870.
Doctor Drought wears a steam-powered supersuit that extracts water from anything. Doctor Drought can also shoot high pressure steam from his gloves. Doctor Drought’s suit has a thin unique thermo-responsive lining: if the bad doctor starts to get hot, the lining becomes equally cool. If he gets cold, the lining becomes equally warm. Does Kid Whirlwind stand a chance against this armored fiend?

Maelstrom (entry number one)
David Munroe was an American photojournalist, who travelled to Kenya and, while visiting one of the many tribes of the country, fell in love with N’Dare, the princess of the tribe and a witch-priestess. They married, and returned to David’s home in Harlem, New york where they had a daughter, Ororo. After travelling to Egypt, their aircraft was shot down, leaving Ororo as an orphan. However, David had survived the attack, but when he saw his wife’s dead body he went mad with grief and ran off into the desert. There he wandered, aimlessly, before collapsing after three days of punishing heat. Dehydrated and dying of thirst, he prayed for water. Suddenly, massive clouds formed and rain poured down from the heavens. Bewildered, David drank heartily,vwondering how his prayers had been answered. Then, he had an epiphany: as a result of how closely bonded he was with his wife, when they concieved their daughter he too gained her powers of controlling the weather. David then realised what he had to do, and so he flew off in search of his daughter. Years passed, and David eventually lost hope of ever seeing his darling Ororo again, until he stumbled upon a fight between the X-Men and the Brotherhood of Mutants. When he saw Storm, and what she could do, he knew instantly that she was his daughter. The mutant Toad was sneaking up on her, however, but before he could attack David sent him flying with a blast of lightning. Storm was left speechless by her father’s appearance, as she had thought him dead for most of her life. Overcome with happiness, they embraced, and made up for lost time as David asked Ororo what she had been doing with her life in his absence. Overjoyed to see his daughter, David joined the X-Men as Maelstrom, and has been a valued member of the team ever since.

Aeolus was a Greek god/mortal/king (the details are a little unclear) that had power over the wind. In the Odyssey by Homer, Odysseus happened upon his island (in which he is known as Aiolian).
“We came to the Aiolian island (nesos Aiolios); here lived Aiolos, son of Hippotas; the deathless gods counted him their friend. His island is a floating one; all round it there is a wall of bronze, unbreakable, and rock rises sheer above it.”
The picture shows Aeolus bestowing one of his “gifts” of the winds upon the viewer.

OK, I had these for the possible Texas contest ever since the Southern Fried Heroes contest. But they will really work here … besides I have several other Texas non-weather characters already waiting in my Texas folder.
So here are my Texas Weather characters:
#1 Drought
(Inspired after a day of dialysis)
James Munson had been a large guy with sandy brown hair, brown eyes.
His health had never been great.
Eventually his kidneys failed due to his obesity and diabetes and he had to go for Dialysis,
In 6 months he went from 400lbs down to 120 while on dialysis,
He had to monitor his diet and his fluid intake went from a couple of gallons a day to 40oz a day.
Not an easy task for a Texan, between the heat, Super Big Gulps and Route 44s.
But he tried and as a result he was constantly thirsty and weak from near dehydration.
During treatments he would often cramp, and after the 4 1/2 hour treatments would be dizzy, weak and exhausted.
Phosphates slowly calcified his lungs, heart and even his brain.
Evntually all this snapped his mind.
During a heat wave of over two weeks of 100+ temperatures, he died of heat induced complications.
Three days after they buried him, he rose back up!
Somehow he could now sap moisture from the surrounding area or certain objects.
He found it easier to leech moisture from living beings.
In his desiccated form it wasn’t much of a stretch to take on a sand form. In this sand form he could slither across floors, seep through tiny cracks.
He had also gain the abitlity to communuicate, summon, and control desert animals:
coyote, buzzards, snakes and scorpions.
He could Control weather to a limited effect as well: heatwaves, drought, dust storms.
He also gained the ability to control weak minded people.
James began to call himself Drought. He had become a breed of desert vampire!

He learned to move air around him then push it out. With these cyclonic winds he also has Flight and Air Sheilds.
His spells has the side effect of creating small cyclones of dust and dirt, which is were he gets his name … Dust Devil.

Charles Ray. an egotistical weather man, was out on location on sweeps week, the 2 weeks of 100+ temps was taking its toll on plants, bodies of water, animals, children and elderly, making some average crazy from the heat with violent outbursts.
He saw the devastation being wrought and sincerely wished he could do something to help, suddenly out of a clear blue, sky he was struck by lightning. When he came to, he discovered he could control the rains, he flew up and rained on the city and them moved further out, but he over extended himself and fell. Later he discover he could produce vast quantities, but only for short durations

#4 Heat Wave
Mark Richards
had always been a thief since childhood, stealing neighbors toys, stealing lunch money from kids, stealing test results from teacher, stealing money from his mom’s purse, later even stealing his friend’s girlfriend.
Right out of high school he went to the Army and learned to fight even better.
He stole an experimental enviromental life support suit. Problem was it ws still experimental and the internal coolling system had a glitch, the external vents produced very high amounts of heat, producing a searing aura of heat exhaust around it. This delighted Mark and he added laser goggles and industrial heat lamps to the palms and became a wave of crime known as Heatwave

Agathe
From the Greek word good, her name depicts her entire demeanor. Her attitude was virtuous and timid, until her husband, a sailor, was taken by the sea. With this news she ran to Poseidon in a fit of rage and sorrow. Hearing her plea, Poseidon granted her power over the waters that ended her husband’s life until she too died; this may have been a terrible mistake, however, for with a grudge, she carries the power of a demi-goddess.
lady catastrophe, a woman with a power that can easily destroy the entire world.

Arida
A mysterious woman whose true identity remains unknown. She is horribly scarred and her eyes burn red with anger. Her coming is an ill omen, for she can decrease the humidity in the air and intensify even the most grueling desert climates. She is living drought, dessication personified. Arida lives to bring thirst to all living things.

entry #5
Francis Christensen was the assistant to Mark Law (a cosmic scientist). One night, Francis was left behind to close up the big telescope when he spied something. Something large was headed our way. He ran outside and saw a greenish rock getting smaller and smaller as it descended through the atmosphere. Before he had time to react, the rock fell and struck him, infusing with his chest. He ran in confusion for hours, until he made a great discovery. The meteor could conjure armor about his person. It took him several weeks, but he was able to master the new half rock armor. Now he can summon it at will. The armor gives him super strength, great resistance to heat and pressure, and he can even summon small meteorite shards to fire at his opponents. Armed with this new-found weapon, he save the innocent as: Captain Meteor. He even started his own super team, The Neo Champions.

Joe Storm, was a stormchaser for National Geographic who, eventually, got too close to a tornado.
Ironically his son Jack Storm, once in his teens, after his father’s death, developed the power to predict and control weather. This ability can vary from an isolated area of a foot or so to as large as an average size state … with great concentration and exhaustion. Stormwarden can also bring fog into an area, change the temperature drastically, bring down a mist to rain, sleet to hail, dust devil to a tornado. He can also ice objects, fire ice and snow as projectiles or throw lightning strikes.
Some said it was a gift from Jack’s father’s spirit, other’s said it was a natural mutant talent. Regardless the source Jack took on the name Stormwarden controlling the weather that might harm or kill people as it did his father. More than on one occasion he has been forced to stop criminals, using his awe inspiring weather powers. As a paying job Jack took the job of a weather man for the local TV station and can be found driving around in his Weather van.

It is unknown how the horror that is Blood Ice came to be. A science experiment gone wrong maybe… or perhaps some kid just grabbed the wrong hat for building a snowman. Whatever the case, everyone knows to avoid Blood Ice and its chill embrace. Proof of its victims can be seen all through its body… as frozen blood.
It has the ability to freeze almost anything containing water that it encounters. Blood Ice often uses the added mass for protection, armoring it frail core in ice.

Whenever weather conditions threaten to become unstable, the government calls upon the E.V.A. units to take charge. Created by MetCorp Labs, E.V.A. stands for Environmental Variations Agent. These scientists utilize special suits which allow them to change size. The suits are also enhanced with special equipment that allow them to affect the environment.
This is Yellowjacket. Her suit is based on a queen bee. Equipped with an extra set of mechanical arms, in times of environmental calmness, she lives among and studies bumblebees. She can even assist with pollenation of flowers and collection of honey.
When the weather gets rough, however, she can create strong cross-currents with her suit, cause a torrential downpour, or even remove cloud cover.
So, in short, Yellowjacket’s two main jobs are to count all the bees in their hives and chase all the clouds from the sky. And she can still get back to Pooh Corner by one.

Jimmy Vargo was a member of a storm chasing team,who would follow after tornadoes and major storm cells. While on duty one day,his vehicle was struck by lightning while being hit by a twister. Miraculously he survived with no major injuries. He soon discovered that whenever a storm would approach,his body would start to transform. He could transform into a whirlwind and also control the storms around him. He would use these new powers to help lessen the damage caused by the tornadoes he still chases. Everyone calls him Mister Twister.

Frilligree Frost
Frilligree (spelled correctly) is a frost fairy who’s job it is to herald the coming of winter. He can ice an object with a touch, even a mere brush of his body. Frilligree Frost is something of an antagonist of the red headed and firey spirited fairy Prixy of the Friendly Forest. There is an unmistakable ‘opposites attract’ relationship between them, but Prixy often gets angry at Filligree when he frosts things up a bit TOO much.

in the year 2012, the greatest technological advancement of all time was made. Apple had created AI. the technology was to powerful though, and all of humanity got enslaved. now in the dark and bleak future, AI must make sure none rebel against it, so it has employed a new type of enforcer. AI created a robot that could command weather and generate perpetual energy. and it was called: i of the storm!

Entry #13
Lightning Lass
(This is the Ayla Ranzz from our first Legion game. Sadly we do have our own reboots having played Legion about 4 different versions and with different groups of players. She does have a regular uniform, but she prefers to dress in her home world rancher gear)
Ayla Ranzz is a rancher from the planet Winith in the 30th century.
Winith is an agricultural planet also known as a planet of twins. Although the Ranzz had a “solo” son, Mekt, before Alya and her twin brother Garth was born.
One day Mekt, Ayla and Garth went joyriding in the family’s space speeder and crash landed on the planet
Korbol which possessed lightning beast the siblings decided to try to recharge the family’s speeder with. However the plan didn’t work as expected and the lightning beasts fired on the 3 Ranzz offspring. Once they woke up they discovered each one of them had lightning generating and absorbing powers.
Being a solo on a planet of twin’s and possible the ordeal on Korbol and new powers messed up Mekt’s mind though and he left his homeworld and became a villian.
Garth went to search for him and ended up being a founder of the Legion of Super Heroes after rescuing R. J. Brande the wealthiest man in the universe.
Ayla was the one now left as a “solo” on a world of twins and with her powers made something of a name for herself.
Once her brother Garth was apparently killed in combat. Ayla visited her brother’s coffin and decided to take his place, impersonating him.
It was the studly playboy Sun Boy who eventually noticed Ayla was no guy, having no adam’s apple.
So Ayla later joined the team as Lightning Lass.
And later still Garth apperantly was back alive, unfortunately the Legion had rules about power duplication and Ayla was going to be booted out of the Legion, but Dream Girl used Naltorian science to change Ayla’s Lightning powers to Light ie gravity nullifying powers, proving what a punny sense of humor the platinum bombshell had. So Lightning Lass became Light Lass and got to stay in the Legion.
Many times Ayla and Garth fought their brother who was a member of the Legion of Super Villians. One of these battles Mekt had kidnapped Ayla, ranting and torturing her, until be blasted her with such a tremendous lighting blast it switched her lightning powers back and she once again became Lightning Lass.
In the course of alternate timelines and realities she has also been known as Pulse, Gossamer, Spark, Livewire.
Ayla personality is a constant spark of optimism and hope.
But she is very powerful and can kick ass with the best of them.
Although a universe ranging super hero, she still is proud of her farm girl rancher roots, never really letting fame give her a big head.
Ayla is proud of her body and not prudish about it and totally bisexual.

Earth Quaka Thunda Maka (entry number two)
These foul little minions do the bidding of Markhor, the evil Sky King of Stadlash. With their hammers they create earthquakes and cause great thunderstorms to roll across their lord’s skies, reminding his enemies of his dominance. They are stupid creatures, and often break out into fights, forgetting the power of their weapons. Many a continent has been turned to dust by a drunken brawl.

Years ago, when Father Time was on a business trip, Mother Nature had a brief fling with Jack Frost. When Father Time returned, Mother Nature told him she was pregnant and that the baby was is. Fast-forward 8 months later, when the baby was born. One look at the baby and Father Time knew who the real father was. This beautiful baby girl had pale skin, ice-blue lips and snow-white hair. Most chilling of all was the icy look in her eyes. Father Time still raised her as his own, but at age 18, she set off to seek her real father and to learn the family business. Now she goes by

Electron- A famed archaeologist, Adam Johnson, found a beautiful amulet on one of his digs. It glistened with an electric blue sparkle, held by a dark gray strap. As he tried it on his neck, it tightened into a death grip, and he slowly felt his life slip away. When he awoke, he was prisoner inside of an amulet, something else controlling his body. Everywhere the thing went, Adam was forced to watch in horror as it destroyed.

Cliff, try to spend twenty minutes on one, not twenty minutes on thirty entries. That’s how DiCicitraz, Hammerknight, Martian Blue, and a lot of others always win. They do quantity instead of quality.

Connor (156): Since Cliff has actually won a character creation contest before, I think he’s got a handle on his personal best method for producing entries.
It’s not a matter of quantity, it’s a matter of quality, and Cliff never puts out spammy, crappy product. They’re generally very good, so I don’t mind that there are a lot of them (relatively speaking).
There have been people in the past who would put up two dozen entries they had lying around on their hard drives, which had little or nothing to do with the contest theme, and which were of very low quality. That’s basically spam and it irritates me, but Cliff’s nowhere near that kind of thing.

He was cursed with immortality until he became a man worthy of his heritage, a protector of humanity. A hero.

Conner,
I am sorry you don’t like my entries. I believe you have mentioned this before, I apologize if it wasn’t you, but as I said then, if you have some constructive criticism or tips I will take them under consideration. As it is it usually takes me two hours to do an entry. Probably would be less if my eyesight was better. What is it you don’t care for about my style?
I will admit I have been quite proud of my entries.
My first contest I entered was #34 Adventure,
I have since won an Honorable Mention with Contest 36 Head Case,
1st in Contest 37 Platinum Bomb,
HM in 38 Mini Blade,
HM 40 Big Mama,
HM 43 Firebird,
HM 44 Merry Mabon 2010,
HM 46 Lavanah.
7 mentions out of the 12 contests I’ve entered. That’s over half. I don’t think that’s too shabby.
They may not all be first place, but considering the high quality of entires. I am thrilled to have my HMs.
Regardless. I am sorry my entries irritate you, but since Jeff doesn’t have a problem with it … I’ll probably keep posting as many entires as I come up with as long as I think they have a chance to win … or make someone laugh. If it honestly bothers you … just ignore them, I won’t be offended.
Entry number one – Rödiin and Crimson Thunder
Rödiin was the right hand of the Old Norse Storm King until he fell in love with a mortal woman. When the King heard about it he feared that a child may be born and would endanger his reign. He immediately sent a lighning to kill the woman, but he was late: the child was already born. Rödiin took her to the parents of his lover to take care of the baby. However the King didn’t know that the child was born. He chained Rödiin to the top of the highest mountain so he won’t be able to impregnate any other mortals. When the girl grew up and found out how to control his powers, she went in search for his father. She reached the top of the highest mountain but she couldn’t free his father for his chains was forged by the Storm King himself. She was sad for her failure to free her father, but still she was happy that she found him. Now she works on ending the reign of the Storm King and taking his place. She often seeks Rödiin for advice and for a bit of encouragement when she feels she’s too weak to defeat the Storm King.

SAND SPECTRE
http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/721/sandspectrek.png
Like a mirage riding on the desert sand
Like a vision floating with the desert winds
Know the secret of the ancient desert lands
Your are the keeper of the mystery in your hands
No one dares to even look or glance your way
Your reputation goes before you they all say
Like a spirit that can disappear at will
Many claim of things but no one’s seen you kill
Legend has it that you speak an ancient tongue
But no one’s spoke to you and lived to tell the tale
Some may say that you have killed a hundred men
Others say that you have died and live again

last and final! The storm rider!
now then, this guy has no weather based powers he hets name due to the electrical discharge from his cybernetic hand and the thundering boom of his modified hand gun. he is one of my characters that r living after the first apocolypse, it is because of the nature of the apocolypse that made the atmosphear messed up creating a permanent storm over what used to be a part of hollywood, and that is where the storm rider dwells killing in the name of what is left of justice under the cover of an ongoing storm-ridden ruined city.
