The aura, if you're referring to the glow, is indeed a light effect and at the time I had just intended for it to be a golden glow, though I might make a green variant now that you've mentioned it. Just so it can fit in with the whole plague theme I wrote up for this character on another site. The tattoo behind it however, is a halo, which has its own lore attached to it, again on the other site.

EDIT: I would have uploaded a full body shot, but again, it didn't want to load properly.

Name: Thomas Hall
Codename: Dynamo
Powers: Electricity Absorption, Super Speed
Bio: Born with the ability to absorb electricity and covert it into superhuman speed, Thomas Hall originally wanted nothing to do with heroics. He didn’t even play sports at High School, partially because he didn’t want to be considered a cheat and mostly because he didn’t really care. He just wanted to make people laugh, not impress them with his powers. However, one day that all changed. After doing a try out gig at a local comedy club, Thomas and his boyfriend were taking a short cut home when they were the victims of a targeted hate crime. Their attackers used weapons. Thomas managed to get away, his boyfriend didn’t. That night, Thomas used his powers in anger for the first time, absorbing the electricity from all of the surrounding street lights and taking out the attackers in less time than it would take to blink. But he couldn’t bring himself to get revenge. Instead he handed the attackers over to the police and dedicated himself to using his powers to help others. This would eventually lead him to joining The Protectors upon the formation of the second incarnation of the team.
Random Extra Facts:
- Thomas' theoretical top speed cannot be calculated as it is risky to test how much electricity he can absorb before suffering any negative effects, but projections do put his max at around 700-800 mph or 300-350 metres per second, though these are (by nature) inaccurate and his top speed could be even more.
- Thomas actually approached The Titan about joining The Protectors, rather than the other way round. He found out about The Protectors reforming from Lucina Stamford, a former supervillain turned cafe owner/ info dealer, and decided to try his luck.
- He's a big gamer. He can often be found playing online whenever not on duty, alongside some of his team-mates, most often Luis Deacon (Catalyst), Michael Barnes (Watchman), Megan Harris (Copy Cat) and one of the teams tech supports Jamie Walters.
- He's terrified of spiders.

- He's massively into geek culture. When he was a teen he was really into LARPing and cosplaying at conventions, he knows how to sew and make costumes (which really helped when he decided to become a superhero) and he still meets up with a couple of friends every week to play DnD. They've tried to get him to introduce them to other members of the team, but that got shut down pretty quickly by The Titan.

Ok, if that's what you want to do.

I have had problems with running heromachine on Firefox before (though it does seem to be working for me now) but it worked on Chrome and Edge. The only other thing I could do is check with Jeff (the guy who made the program) and see if there was anything he knew that could fix the problem.

Firefoz, cookies are cleared regularly.

I think I will just cancel the subscription to be honest, not in the mood for a mystery.

Ok, haven't seen that before. What browser are you using, also have you cleared cookies recently?

the linked picture hasn't displayed so I have uploaded it but basically - wordpress page with text, no links to executables? That is what I am getting anyway.

 

Reply To: so where are the programs?

Yep, those links provided go to pages that have some text, but no links, at least for me. I have disabled Adblocker Ultimate.

What am I missing?

Uh, yeah, he can have the sewer ALLLL-LLLLLL to himself. It smells better out here anyway. Nice work. I'd love to see your Ice Mage and Minotaur fight. Who doesn't like an extra side of beef in their freezer?

Reply To: ONE PART, MANY CHARACTERS contest……

Huh. Same items, as I have no access for the next twenty-plus hours to change them, and, one extra point for a backstory that mentions flowers. Due 5/12/20 Tues noon EST.

These really are interesting items to misuse . . .
