Name: Aaron Kruger
Genre: Supervillain
Powers/Special Skills: body part substitution; rapid healing
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: ultranium sword
Affiliations: none
Other Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
This dastardly villain has the power of body part substitution. Wielding his ultranium sword, Aaron spends his time severing various body parts from superhumans and attaching them to his body, which immediately accepts them (provided they are completely organic) and is able to use their powers. He keeps his own body parts and hundreds he has collected in a secret cryogenic chamber, so he can pick and choose which he wants to use. Pictured here, Aaron is sporting the explosive left eye of the Visionary, the super-sensitive ears of Nightbat, the super-strong right arm of Tytan, the stretchy left arm of Gum Boy, and the swift legs of the Bronze Blur. In almost every case, he kills his victims.

Alias: Abattoir
Real Name: Charles Murray
Genre: Serial Killer
Powers/Special Skills: expert hand-to-hand combatant
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: bladed weapons
Affiliations: none
Other Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
Charles was a menial worker at a large-scale slaughterhouse just outside Crystal City on the west coast. His already somewhat unstable mind was warped much further with the day-after-day witnessing of thousands of cows being killed in front of him. The sight of blood and carnage slowly began to excite him in ways that at first frightened him, but eventually delighted him. Before long, he began attacking stray animals with a kitchen knife in his free time. Soon, however, that became insufficient for sating his undeniable urge for gore, and he moved on to killing the bums and junkies who littered the streets near his small apartment. But Charles's real desires lay in the hunt, and the derelicts of Crystal City's alleys and gutters just didn't put up enough of a fight. Soon Charles was targeting healthier, more mobile prey, and his bloody escapades quickly caught the eye of the police and, in turn, the media, who ironically dubbed him the "Abattoir Killer" for the messy, horrifying way he flayed open his victims. Charles created a blade-ridden costume, reveling in the attention his murders were getting, and has been killing ever since…

Alias: AB-E
Real Name: Abigail Shelley
Genre: Superhero
Powers/Special Skills: none
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: giant robotic body with state-of-the-art weaponry
Affiliations: Dr. Victor Shelley
Other Aliases: none
The daughter of a brilliant robotics developer, six-year-old Abbie had to go with her father to his lab one day when she developed a cold and couldn't go to school. Ever-curious and unerringly mischievous, Abbie found her way into every dangerous contraption she could gain access to, and she was involved in a horrific explosion, one that left her body broken and dying. In a fit of panic, Dr. Shelley gently put Abbie into his latest development, a heavily armed defense robot commissioned by the U.S. government, called the Auto/Bio Suit, version Echo (AB-E). Dr. Shelley was able to save his daughter by routing the robotics' wires into Abbie's body, keeping her heart and brain active. However, Abbie can now no longer live apart from her new giant steel body. Imagine a spoiled little girl at the helm of the most advanced individual weapons system on the planet. She gives a whole new meaning to the word "tantrum". Although she is as prone to the usual personality quirks as any young child, Abigail is more than happy to lend a hand to any who ask her help in defending the world. Especially if it means she can tear something up.

Alias: Absalom
Real Name: Robert King
Genre: Supervillain
Powers/Special Skills: none
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: technologically advanced battle armor
Affiliations: David King, KingTech
Other Aliases: none
Status: stasis
Bio:
Robert is the only child of billionaire weapons magnate David King. Robert spent his entire life enjoying his father's money and waiting for the old man to either retire or die so he could step into his considerable shoes and run KingTech, David's research and development company. But instead of being an active part of the company, Robert used his extravagant allowance to drink, pick up women, gamble, and basically refuse to grow up.
The day finally came when David announced that he had chosen his successor as owner and CEO of KingTech. It was his vice president, Henry Kilpatrick. Shocked and furious that he had been overlooked for someone outside of the King family, Robert immediately voiced his objection, but his always stern father rebuked him, scolding him for a life of laziness.
So, Robert decided that he would seek vengeance on both his father and Kilpatrick, and force his way into power. He convinced several of his friends in the company to design and create a robotic battle suit for him and began going by the name Absalom, for the Biblical character, and started the first of many attempts to murder David and Kilpatrick. But old man King would not have it and, though it broke his already weak heart to do so, he employed the super-mercenary Doomsayer to track and murder his son.
He was successful, to an extent. In truth, David King had merely planned to incapacitate his son and fake Robert's death. He had instructed Doomsayer to bring Robert to the brink of death, at which point David had his son placed into a cryogenic chamber and kept alive but unconscious until such a time as David could figure out what to do with him.

Alias: Absolute Zero
Real Name: Reginald Ferris
Genre: Supervillain
Powers/Special Skills: cryogenesis
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: Stormwatchers
Other Aliases: Blizzard
Status: at large
Bio:
Reginald was at one time just a supervillain, going by the alias Absolute Zero. But when he and his fellow Stormwatchers came up with the idea to pose as heroes, Reggie was on board, and so he created the identity of Blizzard. As faux heroes, the team creates disasters and then pretends to swoop in and save the day. This has helped to keep their alter egos from being apprehended by the police. Reginald can freeze any moisture with which he comes in contact, including the humidity in the air. This allows him to freeze people and objects solid, create weaponry and shielding, and even make ramps of ice over which he can slide across town.

Alias: Absorbing Man
Real Name: Oswald Proctor
Genre: Supervillain
Powers/Special Skills: absorption of other individuals, taking on aspects of their appearance, additional strength, and in the case of other supers, their powers
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: none
Past Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
Oswald led a life full of dejection and heartbreak. He grew up in an orphanage for the first 7 years of his life, believing that his parents had been killed in an automobile accident shortly after his birth. But he found out that they had simply tired of having a child and had left him on the doorsteps of the orphanage. He began to question the orphanage workers, begging to know why his family had deserted him when he had needed them the most. None knew, and Oswald began to feel the first pangs of vengeance itching at his heart.
As a teenager he was quiet and timid and often the subject of cruel ridicule by his peers. He spent prom night crying in his bedroom, having been unable to find a single girl willing to be his date. But he excelled in academics, got into a good school, and in his early twenties secured a successful job as an orthodontist. It was in this job that he met his future wife, a woman who did nothing but take advantage of his rising wealth. Even before they were married, Oswald knew she could never be faithful to him, and he was right. But instead of doing anything about it, he let her do what she would, clinging to the idea that when they were old, she would calm down and love him. So she filed for divorce instead and took half of his wealth. He never saw her again. he became deeply depressed and his work suffered so much that he was soon fired.
Lacking all motivation to rebuild his life, Oswald stayed at home for months at a time. It was not until his landlord showed up one day to complain about the smell from his neglected apartment. In anger he grabbed Oswald's wrist and it was only then that the mutant power asserted itself. The landlord began to melt into Oswald's skin, until his entire body had become assimilated into Oswald. Instead of being afraid, Oswald suddenly felt invigorated, powerful, stronger than he ever had.
After weeks of scouring alleyways and absorbing homeless, Oswald began to feel ready to exact his revenge on a world that would not accept him. He began a devious rampage of murder and villainy, calling himself the Absorbing Man. When he was confronted by the superhuman team the Defenders, he was able to absorb River AND her ability to control the movement of water. His costume even took on some of the attributes of hers. But it was soon realized, when Megavolt shocked him with a wave of electricity, that the effects could be reversed. River was restored to her normal self. The Absorbing Man was taken into custody and placed into a specialized cell surrounded by a light charge. He as held there until a breakout was conducted by the Crimson Cabal.

Genre: Supervillain
Powers/Special Skills: able to grow up to 70 ft. tall
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: The Casino of Crime
Past Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
James was a basketball player for Caligo University when he was injured during a game. His head received a sharp blow and he was knocked unconscious for a few hours. He was rushed to the hospital for a CAT scan to determine the extent of the damage to his brain. But during the scan, a power surge caused him to be pelted with high powered energy, deviating his pituitary gland. He immediately began to grow rapidly until he had smashed out of the CAT scan, the room, and finally the hospital. When he had finished growing hie was a hulking 70 ft. tall and proportionally as strong and resistant to damage.
And was subdued from his panic, and kept at the hospital for testing. Nothing could explain the bizarre change that had occurred in James. Because he was kept in the hospital, he couldn't play basketball, his scholarship was dropped. His future now in tatters, James escaped from the hospital (easily) and disappeared into the underworld of Caligo. He resurfaced as a member of the Casino of Crime, a casino-themed group of super criminals led by Madam Roulette.

And many thanks to you, Kaylin. Absorbing Man is secretly one of my favorites, so he gets some special attention. But don't tell my other characters or they might get jealous!

Alias: "Acid" Raines
Real Name: Frank Raines
Genre: Supervillain
Powers/Special Skills: composed of highly caustic acid, able to burn and melt through touch
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: none
Past Aliases: none
Status: at large
Bio:
Frank was a worker in a plant that produced industrial chemicals. One day, a fellow worker was goofing around with him and accidentally knocked Frank into one of the vats full of a quick-burning acid. Frank should have been killed almost instantly, but instead his body went through a powerful and dangerous change. He became composed of the acid and turned a dark sickly green while his hair went stark white. Now his very touch can burn through metal. The change drove him partially insane and he turned to crime, taking the nickname "Acid" Raines.

I think uploading them to something like Photobucket is the right way to go. It makes me nervous to think that they're all going to be here and if something happens to me or the site or whatever … ugh. Some big dedicated photo hosting site is, I think, far and away the most prudent way to go.

Luckily a very selfless friend of mine went through the torturous process of copying the majority of my pics onto a Photobucket account for me not too long ago. So most of them are already there and I can do the rest as I go.

Alias: Adapter
Real Name: Franklin Evans
Genre: Superhero
Powers/Special Skills: able to mimic the powers of other superhumans
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: limited-strength armor and helmet
Affiliations: none
Past Aliases: none
Status: active
Bio:
Franklin may never have known that he'd been born with his mutant ability, had it not been for an otherwise normal day at work. He was a teller at a Caligo bank that was, without warning, invaded by the mighty supervillain Mastodon. When the destructively strong criminal forced his way into the bank and demanded the contents of the vault, Franklin was suddenly flushed with the feeling of immense power. He was chosen by Mastodon to open the vault and when he grabbed the wheel to open the door, it broke off in his hands. Always a pretty cool-headed and quick-thinking fellow, Franklin realized that he had somehow taken on Mastodon's super strength, and so he courageously swung the wheel around and smashed it into the villain's head, sending him flying across the bank and out into the street. Stunned enough to think better of going back in, Mastodon fled the scene, and a new hero was born in Franklin. After several visits from other superheroes, Franklin realized that his body would adopt each of their powers for a limited time. He created a costume combining Kevlar and reinforced plastic and took the alias Adapter.

Alias: Adrena
Real Name: Veronica Gables
Genre: Superhero
Powers/Special Skills: superhuman "fight or flight" abilities, most notably speed, strength, and endurance
Special Weapons/Tools/Armor: none
Affiliations: Dynamos Alpha Red Team
Past Aliases: none
Status: active
Bio:
Throughout her childhood, Veronica's parents wondered why she was such an angry, violent child. While she never hurt anyone, she was known to break objects, mostly her toys, when she got mad or excited. They endured it for a few years, but finally they took Veronica in to see a doctor.
What they found out amazed them. The doctor excitedly told them that Veronica had a condition that had never before been documented in medical history. Her adrenal glands seemed to produce 5 times the amount of adrenaline into her system as a normal human, which increased her "fight or flight" instincts and abilities by 5 times as well. This meant that any time Veronica's heart beat at an above normal rate, she gained super strength, speed, and endurance.
Unfortunately for her parents, Veronica was an angrier than normal child. The doctor prescribed her depressants, which seemed to keep her calm most of the time. In high school, she seemed to be able to lead a normal life. However, she befriended a young man by the name of Dave Madison, and the two began dating. When Dave revealed to her that he was a mutant with the ability to control gravity, Veronica tearfully admitted the same. Her parents had told her that she was the only person in the world with superpowers, and that she must always suppress her abilities. Angry and inspired by her boyfriend, Veronica secretly stopped taking her medication, and found that now, at the age of 18, she could control her emotions much better. After graduation, she and Dave ran off and became a crime-fighting couple, until 6 years later they were asked to join Alpha Red.
