So....many.....villains....must....even.....things.....out!
Name of the Character: Radical Emerald
Age: 16
Affiliation: Good
Role: Super Hero
Main Power: The name of Emerald's main power is "Radio" and allows him to take in and make use of different forms of radiation. The most common radiation he uses is solar radiation from the sun, though he can also take in radiation from heat or radioactive materials. After taking in the radiation he can use its energy to power himself up increasing his strength and speed or release it in different forms for attack such has heat waves or radiation waves that cause radiation sickness.
Secondary/Support Power: Emerald's secondary power lies in his ability to increase or decrease his own perception of time. He was able to develop this through extensive martial arts training where he strengthened both his body and mine. This gives him the ability to either slow down time from his perspective making things appear to move in slow motion, or speed up time from his perspective making things appear to move faster. This time dilation only acts on his perception of time, not the actual movement. So he would still move at the same speed as normal, he can just comprehend whats going on and think of a counter quicker. The ability to speed up his perception of time hasn't been very useful in battle, though it has gotten him through many boring situations.
Background: Emerald used to be a normal every day kid. He had some friends and enjoyed the simple life. That was until that one fateful day, when his world would change forever! Dun dun dun!
He was just minding his own business when one day a radioactive spider bit him! No...wait....wrong story....let me start over.
He was just minding his own business when one day a meteorite fell from the sky and landed just feet away from him. It was pulsating green and Emerald felt drawn to it, almost as if he destiny was playing out before his eyes. He walked over to the meteor and touched it. Immediately a stream of green energy began to swirl up his arm and over his body causing a great deal of pain, but he was unable to move away. Emerald blacked out and awoke moments later next to the meteorite which had now lost its green hue. Emerald felt different but he couldn't put his finger on it.
After he got home he walked into the kitchen and him mom almost had a heart attack. She asked him why he was wearing that ridiculously tacky superhero costume. Needless to say, Emerald was confused. He ran up to his room and looked in his mirror only to find himself looking at an incredibly fresh green spandex costume! The next few years were a learning experience for him. He discovered an odd ability to manipulate different forms of radiation. This prompted him to take up martial arts for no apparent reason were he began to train his mind and body. Its here that he developed the ability to alter his own perception of time. At first he only used this ability to speed up his boring classes. But one day while he was sitting on the couch, another life altering event would alter his life forever!
It was that day......that Emerald......lost his parents! A crazed gunman had broken into the house and began to hold them all hostage. The cops had the place surrounded, a real Mexican standoff! Seeing he had no chance of escaping, the gunman lifted the gun towards Emerald's father....and BA-!
Mother: Emeeeraaaaaald! Come downstairs! Its time for dinner!
Emerald: Mooooom! I was in the middle of an important story! Don't interrupt me!
Mother: Well hurry up! You don't want your chicken to get cold!
Sigh.....okay.....where was I? Oh ya! Well....actually, my parents are still alive. And we never got held hostage. Aaand.....there was never really a metorite that I got my powers from, I was sort of just born with them. But that would have made a really good story, right? Really what happened was that I was sitting on the couch watching some news and a report about rising crime levels came on. With my powers and my martial arts skills I kind of just thought "Why not?".
And that's how I, Radical Emerald, became a superhero!
