Roxanne Everhart/Fire Glider: A child prodigy who grew up in the absolute WORST environment. At 16 years old, Roxanne Everhart was already showing the first signs of a future genius, skipping three grades and working on several technological breakthroughs; all she needed was an environment that nurtured her development. Instead, by some cruel twist of fate, her genius went unrecognized and she ended up in the infamously terrible Oak Hills Conservatory school, where she suffered relentlessly vicious bullying from her classmates and even her teachers; her rage grew, and grew, and finally flared when her classmates burned down her house and hospitalized her mother. Seeking revenge, she accepted the offer of a mysterious organization, desperate for ANY chance at revenge; their experiments transformed her into a living surge of heat, contained within a mechanical suit, taking away the last of her empathy and breaking her completely.

Now, Everhart takes to the skies as Fire Glider, riding atop the fruit of her technological genius and incinerating anything standing between her and "justice". Dorky and chipper on the outside and a cold, remorseless psychopath to her core, she has dedicated her life to hunting down the students and teachers of Oak Hills Conservatory. She's already caught up to several of them, and those who survive live in utter fear; they know the torture, beatings, and burnings are the absolute LEAST of what she has in store for them...

Fire Glider is a Paradigm who constantly generates extreme levels of fire and heat, forcing her to wear an armored containment suit at all times. She can only take it off when sleeping and must sleep in a personalized room made to withstand the heat. The suit is equipped with a pair of wrist-mounted vents that, when opened, blast unending jets of pressurized fire. The suit also enhances Everhart's strength to a superhuman degree, to the point she can tear bunker doors off their hinges with ease. Her characteristic glider, her finest invention, is a cutting-edge flying machine that can withstand its owner's full 500-pound weight, while still remaining fantastically maneuverability and speeds reaching up to 120 MPH. The glider is equipped with a number of defensive and offensive capabilities, such as railguns and the ability to drop firebombs.

The price for Fire Glider's powers was her empathy; losing it was the final straw that turned her into the sadistic monster she now is.

Victoria Valentin/Blackout: A former intern at a law firm and originally a kind, innocent, and gentle soul who nurtured the growth and bonds of everyone around her, Victoria Valentin has now been reduced to a soulless husk of her former self, the loss of her emotions freeing her from moral constraints and giving her free reign to do whatever the hell she feels like; at times she is merely an enforcer to whomever pays her best, other times she is a bank robber... and at other times, she is a threat that requires more than one hero to deal with. Incapable of feeling emotions like hate, anger, sadness, or happiness, she slowly but surely builds a reputation as one of the most dangerous supervillains to walk the face of Atlas.

Blackout has the ability to absorb any type of energy into herself, such as electricity, kinetic energy, life force, and so on. Once she has stockpiled enough energy, she releases it out of her as a devastating EMP burst capable of shorting out anything within a 180 meter radius. She is incredibly vulnerable to bright light, and thus tends to operate mainly at nighttime.

The experiments that gave Blackout her powers stripped her of her ability to feel emotion, turning her from a kind and loving woman to the empty shell she is in the present.

Alright, with the lockdown and now finishing my semester from home, I should have a bit more time for posting my work. 

Sergio Garfield/Voltage: Once a construction worker and a loving family man, Sergio Garfield's experiences with the same organization that changed Sgt. Hardshell has reduced him to a giggling and rambling mass of crackling electricity, incapable of speaking in coherent sentences or even recognizing where he is or what he's doing; he's torn down buildings, shorted out cities, fried hundreds of people in his chaotic, frenzied rampage across Atlas, and the potential he becomes a global threat increases by the day. He is often used as an attack dog by other super villains, as his severe... mental imbalances leave him vulnerable and ripe for manipulation.

Voltage has the ability to generate and control electricity. He can control the number of volts he discharges, ranging from just one to a maximum of 60,000,000; either he releases it as a bolt of energy or from his fingertips. His body also acts as a "transformer" of sorts, as he can channel electrical power through his body and even stockpile it within himself. Voltage is also capable of flight by propelling himself across electrical fields, and can disperse himself into pure electricity and use electrical connections as a transport/escape route.

The experiments that gave Voltage his powers also cost him his sanity, leaving him so mentally imbalanced that he is incapable of recognizing his wife, three kids, and friends ever again.

Fantasist,

Nice Work! I like the layering. I like the colour scheme and most importantly I like the fact that you made certain the clothing fit the form of the body with no overlapping edges.

There are a lot of interesting paths you can take this with the transforms tab for opacity, size, shape, etc...

I think you might want to 'thin the outer border' of the body or choose a colour that is less contrasting so that it looks more part of the scene.

I look forward to your future endeavors...

Here are a few of my own...
