    Here is James Holly, a british magician. He is a seedy character, often up to no good, but also not strong enough to be actively monitored.

    Here is Gornaka, a character I made who was inspired by a certain anime about ninjas. He is a blind man who sees through sending out bursts of magical energy in waves as a form of echolpcation. He also can shape his mana as razor sharp wires which he controls with deadly precision.

    Here is Luther Cross, one of SPARO’s top operatives and often field commander. Luther has the ability to control magnetic forces. He was once a hero who fought crime with his wife who had superstrength. The two of them had rings made of an indestructible and magnetic metal as a sign their love could not be destroyed. His wife was murdered by a supervillain with a death ray and all that was left was her ring. Luther went a little mad and used her ring to murder the supervillain.

    SPARO offered him a commission instead of jail time and Luther became one of their best soldiers. His years of experience as a hero led him to become team leader on their missions. He is one of the more lethal members of the squad, the ring flying around like a remote controlled bullet.

    I know you posted him a few weeks back, but I have to say I LOVE the magic energy effect you did on James Holly.

    Thanks JR.

    Here is Alpha, AKA Alex Patten, one of the premier heroes of my universe. He has enhanced strength, reflexes, speed, senses, a healing factor, and the ability to scan weapons which allows him to intuitively know how to use them and to replicate them using magical energy. This allows him to summon weapons and be a one man army. He favors pistols and has a repertoire of trick bullets.

    He was created by an evil organization by mixing human and demonic DNA to be the perfect soldier and assassin. He was code named Alpha because he was the first test subject to survive past 6 months. After he was born, several other clones were made, his siblings. He was raised to believe that the people he was killing needed to die for the good of the world. He committed his first assassination when he was 13. When he was 15, the team he was a part of massacred innocent women and children in a village near the compound he was raised in Mexico. This made Alex realize he was not on the side of the angels. He fled the area and eventually ended up in Aeolus city.

    There he ended up making friends such as Zach, who would become Shock and starting to live a more normal life. Zach’s family would adopt him and Alex found a life where he was not an assassin. Though his past did leave him a pragmatic and more cynical individual.

    He would also take up the name Alpha again, hoping to redeem himself by becoming a hero who could save lives. He would eventually be confronted by the organization and help take it down. Alpha has become one of the most prominent heroes of his generation. He also lost an arm while helping take down the Zalamin warship that threatened to destroy the planet.

    Here is Claire Bonaparte AKA Beta, Alex’s oldest sister. She was the closest to Alex growing up as they are very similar personality wise.

     

    After the organization fell, she went into the private market as an assassin/mercenary. In this profession, she has run afoul of her brother, though both are unwilling to seriously harm the other. She specializes in rifles and is the best sniper of the siblings.

    Here is Gamma, AKA Gwendolyn Reade. She is one of the least combat focused of Alex’s siblings as she is best with poisons and other scientific approaches. She is perhaps the smartest of the siblings when it comes to scientific pursuits. She is also shy and does not generally like combat. After the organization fell, she stopped being a killer and became a scientist for BSH, quickly rising in the ranks of their biology R&D division.

    Next up is Delta, AKA David Drake. David was the best of the siblings at hand to hand combat. After a couple successful attempts, the scientists at the organization attempted to mess with the genetics of the clones to enhance certain aspects. With David, they increased his healing factor and strength at the cost of his ability to replicate weapons. David is easily the weakest at replication of the siblings, but his hand to hand skills more than make up for it.

    After the fall of the organization, he became a mercenary, though admittedly a less lethal one than some of his other siblings. He will actually avoid killing if he can. David is one of the most positive of the siblings, generally smiling and having a good time. He enjoys a good fight and this is why he went into the mercenary business.

    Thanks!

    Here is the next of Alex’s siblings, Epsilon, AKA Eddie Nelson. The organization messed with his genetics in the hope of giving him superhuman speed. They did succeed in giving him short bursts of superhuman speed, which often comes across as superhuman reflexes, but with a cost. Eddie is temperamental and prone to rash outbursts. He also has a tendency to go overboard in his violence. He is the sibling most likely to attempt to kill Alex on a whim. After the organization fell, he became a mercenary. It is only a matter of time until his recklessness and short fuse get him killed though.

    Here is Zeta, AKA Peter Zhukov.

    After some experimenting with genetics, Peter is a return to the standard of Alpha. Peter is the best of the siblings with knives. He has a sardonic sense of humor and got along well with Alex, having a friendly rivalry, though he was constantly in his brother’s shadow.

    After the organization fell, he became a powered mercenary. He’d eventually be hired by Cobra to fill out his snake themed group as Rhinoceros Viper.

    Here is Eta, AKA Harriet “Harry” Montgomery. She is the best of the siblings at acting and pulling off covert undercover missions. She is outgoing and personable, though she gets very serious when on a mission. After the organization fell, she became a spy for hire/thief.

    I really like the spell effect you made for James Holly. I remember years ago trying to pull off a multi-colored spell like that and you pulled it off so much better!

    Thanks! Here is Kyle Patton, AKA Kappa. Kappa is similar to Alex and always revered him. He would similarly become a hero. He was killed by an assassin when bounties were placed on all heroes. His partner in BSH, Shimmer, had the ability to alter reality.

    Shimmer wished his friend back to life and Kyle was dragged out of the afterlife into his now immortal body. As part of going to the afterlife, one is given the ability to see likely futures as a way to assure one that their loved ones will be alright. This was not removed and was unable to be removed from his soul when it was shoved back into his body. Since he could now affect the future, he was able to see thousands of future possibilities as they formed. This shock of information turned his eyes and hair white.

    This constant influx of information has caused him to mostly retire from the superhero game, though he is still dragged back in when the threat is great enough. He also has a secret hope that the bigger threats may be able to end his suffering, though he knows he will never die.
