The Outsiders

RPG



The Justice League is Dead.

This game, set in the Light: Exotic forum of Elliquiy, will feature the formation of a team of superheroes who are relatively new within the context of this game's universe to the crime-fighting scene. These characters would be part of a new team called The outsiders, and while these characters may have had adventures on their own or with a mentor in the past, this game is about them stepping up to the next chapter of their career and taking on new challenges and bigger threats as part of a newly formed team.
Nightwing/Dick Grayson decide to form a team that could act as Meta Villain Hunter's.

Combining the DCEU Canon with the beloved mythology of the comics and Animated features. The storyline focusses on the rise of The Brotherhood of Blood and what it means for the heroes and heroine's going forward. I will allow new takes on canon characters in DC lore and original characters providing they adhere to the DC Canon. Aka they can be Aliens, Meta Humans, Techo-Machine creations, Amazons, Atlantians, Magical Beings and Vigilante's. 

There's a handful of characters that I am going to say are off-limits to play: Superman, Aquaman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Barry Allen, Hal Jordan, Martain Manhunter, Hawkgirl. 

It is fairly safe to imagine that the major villains of these characters have made an appearance - like Lex Luthor, General Zod, Cheetah, the Joker,

If there is some specific adventure you want to have transpired, please ask. However, none of the huge crossover multiversal adventures that have something like "Crisis" in the title should be considered to have happened.

The game will take place in 2020. The world is largely recognizable as our own, although you have LexCorp, LuthorCorp, WayneCorp, and Queen Industries are major players in various industries. So a character may be listening to their music on a smartphone made by LuthorCorp and some punk may be using a machine pistol made by Queen Industries in place of the familiar iPhone or Mac 10. I would encourage writers to include these flourishes in their posts, but it is optional and largely only for flavour and immersion purposes. I promise not to screw anyone over if they have their character using a LexPhone Platinum.

I do want to restrict players from creating original characters. There are a lot of characters available and I feel it defeats the purpose of playing in the DC setting to allow original characters. However, with that caveat in place, I do allow fairly free rein to players to take a character and put their spin on it. Maybe there is a version of a character you like that has been lost in continuity or retconned away.

Some rules, to be formal:

1) Be cool to each other. We are all here to have fun. It is okay to have differences of opinion, but it is not okay to attack someone over them. Remember to express yourself thoughtfully and with respect to your fellow writers.

2) Respect everyone's ownership of their character. Ask for their permission if you want to have their character do something or react a certain way.

3) Sell the story.

4) Your characters do not have to be friends, or even like each other, but they should basically be allies and the sort of people who can put aside any animosity they might have for another player character in the name of the greater good.

5) I do not know if more rules are needed. I hope not, but just in case: rules subject to change.

With regards to sexual content, a gentle reminder that this will go into the Light: Exotic section. No NC stuff, and nothing super hard that belongs in Extreme. Consent and respect for other writer's O/Os is the name of the game. Characters may be of any gender or sexuality. A writer may have 2 (two) characters to start with.

Here's a sheet! I think I covered everything. If I missed something, let me know! If you just want to add something, go ahead.

NPCS. Superboy, Supergirl, Beast Boy.

Hi! I was wondering if you could clarify original characters as earlier you seems to be saying "okee dokee" and then later saying "nah fam."

I will allow new takes on canon characters in DC lore and original characters providing they adhere to the DC Canon. Aka they can be Aliens, Meta Humans, Techo-Machine creations, Amazons, Atlantians, Magical Beings and Vigilante's.

I do want to restrict players from creating original characters. There are a lot of characters available and I feel it defeats the purpose of playing in the DC setting to allow original characters. However, with that caveat in place, I do allow fairly free rein to players to take a character and put their spin on it. Maybe there is a version of a character you like that has been lost in continuity or retconned away.

Just wondering cuz I have an OC that's firmly in the DCU I'd like to play as the game I made her for went kaput pretty quick. If not I can figure out a canon character to go with.

[VoluptuousVixen]

Yes Foxy original's are Ok.

Characters who are awaiting bios are Starfire, Nightwing, Black Lightening, Wally West and Black Canary.

[VoluptuousVixen]

Name: Koriand'r
Codename/Nomme de Guerre: Starfire, Princess Koriand'r, Princess of Tamaran,
Age: Unknown but a teenager by Tamaran standards.j
Species: Tamaran
Sex: Female
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Hetrosexual

Appearance:

Faceclaim: Anna Diop

History:

Koriand'r is an alien princess from the planet Tamaran who lived in peace and happiness until her home planet was conquered. Banished from Tamaran, Koriand'r was enslaved and experimented on, granting her extraordinary powers which she used to lead a rebellion and liberate herself and her fellow slaves from their captors. She became known throughout the cosmos as Starfire, and settled on Earth, where she became a member of the superhero teams the Outsiders and the Teen Titans.

Princess Koriand'r was the youngest daughter born to the First House of Tamaran. She lived a happy and peaceful life until her home planet was attacked by the alien conquerers, the Citadel, who operated under the orders of the evil Dominators. The Citadel killed Kori's family, with the exception of her older sister Komand'r, and enslaved the entire population of Tamaran, including Kori. They appointed Komand'r as the leader of Tamaran, seeking to use her as a figurehead to appease the planet's people. However, in an attempt to take away the people of Tamaran's will to fight back, they forced Komand'r to publicly banish her sister from the planet. Kori was taken by the Citadel and was the subject of numerous painful experiments. She was discarded in Takron, a savage prison populated by aliens from the various planets the Citadel had conquered. The Citadel suspected she would perish quickly, but she survived motivated by her rage. After lashing out against a Citadelian guard, Kori projected huge amounts of energy from her body, and realized the experiments conducted on her had unintentionally given her incredible powers. She was restrained and further experimented on, enslaved and drugged to keep her compliant. Eventually, Kori was forced to work on a slave ship called the S.S. Starfire, where she met Orn, a rebel Citadelian who had been enslaved by his own people. He showed Kori kindness and love, and smuggled food for her. She began training in secret with Orn, and eventually managed to empower the slaves on her ship to overthrow their captors, leading a rebellion that freed the aliens from their captors. Kori took control of the ship she had been enslaved upon, liberated the people of Tamaran, and became known throughout the galaxy as Starfire.

Koriand'r escaped and eventually found her way to Earth, where she gained the help of the Teen Titans. She chose to remain with the team and took the name Starfire, She remained close with Dick Grayson, Wally West, Donna Troy, Rachel Roth, Victor Stone, and Garfeild Logan. For three years she served as a Titan, now she has been handpicked by Dick Grayson aka Nightwing to be his second in command in his team the Outsiders.

Personality:

Passionate, and Loyal with a fiery temper if you cross her.

Powers:

Strength
Starfire possesses great superhuman strength despite her pin-up girl looks. In early promos for her original appearance in The New Teen Titans, it was said that she "has the strength of eight men." However, Starfire has repeatedly demonstrated that she is far stronger than that since she can out-muscle her Titans teammates Cyborg and even Donna Troy as even Donna Troy could not restrain her and needed Mon-El's help in doing so. This would indicate that Starfire has at least class-100 strength as well, though her strength level has never been accurately quantified.

Flight
Starfire has the ability to fly at great speeds through both the atmosphere and interstellar space. Her long curly hair leaves behind a fiery red contrail during flight, which makes her hair appear even longer than it really is. The flight ability is common among her race, though it can be lost through a childhood disease (her older sister Blackfire is one such example).

Combat Specialist
Starfire is also an exceptional hand-to-hand combatant, having been trained by the Warlords of Okaara at a very early age.

Alien Physiology
Starfire's body continually absorbs ultraviolet radiation, which she then converts into the energy that powers her starbolts and her ability to fly. Starfire can also store a massive amount of this energy to use all at once in a devastating attack, as witnessed by the Outsiders. After holding a great deal of energy in reserve, she created a maelstrom of energy which resembled that of a star and unleashed a wave of destruction that caused several full-blast explosions. Such a massive release of energy leaves Starfire in a greatly weakened state afterward, so she only resorts to this attack when absolutely necessary. It is not known what Starfire breathes, but she has said that she does not need oxygen. She also can see much further than humans, but the extent of this has not been explored. Starfire's alien physiology also grants her immunity to gases.

Special Qualities: As is typical of the Tamaranean race, Starfire has orange skin and completely green eyes with no whites or visible pupils. Her hair is also unusually long and thick compared to that of humans. She has been able to mentally or psionically learn languages such as English or Japanese through physical contact allowing her to communicate in it with ease being omnilingual. When she first arrived in Earth she learned English by kissing Robin, an encounter that gave fruit to their romance.
Abilities: She learned how to drive a Car when she came to Earth and a Motor Bike, Dick Grayson was her teacher.
Special Equipment: None her ship that got her to Earth was destroyed by her Sister Blackfire during a conflict between her and Koris team the Titans.

Limitations/Weaknesses: She is Vulnerable to magical attacks, ie possession etc. She is Vulnerable to telepathic attacks. Enemies like Slade Wilson learned her great empathy means she finds pain to others (Her friends) worse then to her own well being.

Ons: Your choice on how to do this. You can link to an existing O/O thread you have, refer someone to your roleplay preferences if those are set up, write them here.
Offs: Your choice on how to do this. You can link to an existing O/O thread you have, refer someone to your roleplay preferences if those are set up, write them here.

[TheGrandAdmiral]

Player Name: TheGrandAdmiral
Real Name: Dinah Drake
Age: Mid 20s
Sexual Orientation: Bi-sexual
Face Claim: Katheryn Winnick
Base of Operations: Mobile, Clocktower in Gotham, Hall of Justice
Powers: Canary Cry, Sound Immunity, Master Martial Artist
Weaknesses: Aside of her special powers she is a regular human
History:

Dinah Drake was born the child of a teenaged single mother, handed into foster care at the age of four. Considered a troublemaker, she moved from foster home to foster home and finally ran away at the age of ten. Taking to the streets of Gotham, she was caught dumpster-diving by Desmond Lamar, an ex-Special Forces agent and martial arts sensei, who took her in and offered her a job to clean his dojo after classes. In return, he would provide her with food and a safe place to sleep. At her request, Lamar took to teaching her the same skills he provided his students, and she became his regular. When Lamar contracted fatal brain cancer, he left her his dojo. Unfortunately, he was the only one who could keep the local gangs from getting protection money out of them. Dinah's martial arts prowess could only keep them at bay for so long. Eventually, she began losing students who feared the possibility of their retaliation. Flashbacks show that during Zero Year, Dinah's dojo was destroyed in a fire. It was at this point, John Lynch, impressed by her martial arts prowess in taking down several ninjas during an attack, recruited her into Team 7.
During her tenure with Team 7, Dinah works as a covert ops agent in charge of infiltration. She is given the codename Operative Canary. It is during this time that Dinah secretly marries her longtime partner, Kurt Lance. Her powers are subsequently awakened after being tested metagene-positive. Toward the end of the Team 7 run, during a mission to retrieve Pandora's Box, Dinah's sonic scream surfaces and are amplified by Kurt's, the after-effect of which ultimately destroyed the island of Gamorra. In the aftermath, Kurt is presumed dead, and Team 7 is mothballed, leaving Dinah a fugitive on the run from authorities and an outlaw codenaming herself Black Canary.

Equipment: Motorcycle, various martial arts weapons

Relationships: Kurt Lance (ex-husband)

[Foxy DeVille]

Name: Alexandra Demetrios
Codename/Nomme de Guerre: Demi Goddess
Age: 21
Species: Magical Meta-human
Sex: Female
Gender: Fluid
Sexual Orientation: Pan

Appearance: Standing 5' 6" and weighing 134 pounds, Alexandra Demetrios is an attractive young woman of Mediterranean decent with an exceptionally curvaceous physique. She loves flaunting her body so most of her outfits show plenty of flesh while making a half-hearted attempted to have a goddess theme.

Faceclaim: Demi Rose

History: A little over two decades ago an event was held in Athens honoring the heroes of Greece. In attendance were Aristides Demetrios, proud member of the Global Guardian as the Olympian, and Helena Kosmatos, the heroine from World War II known as Fury. Much wine was drunk, fun was had, and nine months later little Alexandra was born. Neither parent was the most stable of souls and as she had done once before Helena gave up a daughter. Stavros Gianopoulos, a wealthy Greek tycoon, was a patriotic man who had organized the event where Alexandra had been conceived and so felt obliged to take the child in. Alexandra last saw her mother when she was five while her father made occasional visits throughout her youth. Stavros did what her could to be a parental figure but as a very busy man himself he left most of the raising of Alexandra to nannies and tutors while proving her with anything money could buy. This sort of upbringing led Alexandra to become a rather spoiled and superficial young woman.

At the age of fifteen, Alexandra's connection to the Greek mythos first manifested itself. She used her vast newfound power the way any teenage girl with little supervision would... to take cool photos that she could post on Pixtagraph, an image sharing site. A cute girl with superpowers living in an exotic location soon gained a lot of followers. This was when she started using the handle "Demi Goddess" as both a reference to demigods and her last name of Demetrios. When she was sixteen Demi found she had gotten the interest of a bigger influencer than her... Princess Diana. The Amazon ambassador had known both of her parents and decided someone needed to be responsible for this literal child of the gods. Since then Diana has tried training Demi in her abilities and to guide her to a more altruistic life. This hasn't been easy and cries of "You're not my mother!" are common. Demi graduated from lyceum (secondary school) a year early thanks to having access to the wisdom of Athena. She relocated to her guardian's villa on the island of Cephalonia, officially to go to university but really for the beaches. After studying public relations for a year she dropped out as Demi felt she had learned enough to run a budding social media empire. Her photos became racier and not one but two sex tapes were "leaked" to the public. Meanwhile Princess Diana decided the girl needed to find her own path. She still offered her advice and guidance but was not as forceful as she had been before. In fact a physical relationship grew between the two women, much like the mentors and students in ancient Greece.

Now at age 21, Demi Goddess is one of the most successful "Pixta girls" in the world. She has channeled her fame into several million dollars worth of product endorsements. While she still loves her non-stop party lifestyle; she has started to feel like she could be doing more. Her activism over social media has increased and maybe it's time to do something useful with her gifts. At the very least super-heroics would provide with more online content. 

Personality: The power of Olympus runs through Alexandra Demetrios' body and permeates her soul. As the Greeks gods are a  lusty, vain, and petty lot accustomed to being worshiped, this has made Demi a bit of a handful to deal with. She loves attention, the more fawning the better. As such her appearance is very important to her. Her skin may be smooth and silky but it's also pretty thin and she can be vindictive towards anyone she feels slighted her. Having been raised in tremendous wealth she places a lot of importance on luxuries. Demi frequently has a cocktail in one hand and her phone in her other. Her outlook on sex is extremely open and her liaisons span the gender spectrum. But not everything about Demi is decadence. She cares a lot about her homeland of Greece. In particular she loves its beaches and mountains, spending much of her time there outdoors. Her county's history of seismic activity has led her to be involved in global earthquake relief. Civil liberties are also important to her and she uses her social media influence to raise awareness of such issues.

Powers:
Gifts of the Gods: Demi Goddess is a living conduit to the other-dimensional energies of Mount Olympus. Via this like she can channel the powers of any figure in Greek mythology... god, goddess, hero, or creature. While this offers her a staggering amount of abilities to choose from, Demi is limited to one myth at a time. She frequently yells out something about the power she's using (Strength of Heracles!") when in action but this isn't necessary.

Heroic Physique: In addition to being pleasing to the eye, Demi's body is superior in other ways. She is twice has twice the strength, stamina, and durability as a normal human. She also has immunity to normal diseases while being highly resistant to toxins and the cold, which is handy considering how much she drinks and how little she wears.
Special Qualities: Her 37-24-38 measurements are pretty special.
Abilities:
Amazonian Martial Artist: While not the most attentive of students, Demi has been trained in combat by the legendary Wonder Woman. In addition her muscle memory has grown accustomed to the skills of the various warriors she has channeled. Thus even when not empowered by a myth she remain an Olympic-level boxer and wrestler. She studied dance for four years while she was younger, which as helped with her coordination.

Ancient Knowledge: Constantly tapping into the skills of people from the Hellenistic Age has left much of their learning in her long-term memory. Demi knows several languages from that era and region (in addition to her native modern Greek along with English and Italian) as well as having an excellent if dated grasp of the humanities, which is good considering how little attention she paid in school.

Public Relations: While she only studied PR at university for a year, Demi is nonetheless a prodigy at promotion. She is a powerful social media influencer with extensive connections. Demi took acting lessons while at uni, which helps keep her poised in public.
Special Equipment: Demi Goddess has no standard gear unless you count her phone. She can create duplicates of any legendary item associated with the myth she's channeling at the time, such as the winged sandals of Hermes. Also as an internet celebrity with a billionaire "uncle" there are few things outside of her budget.
Limitations/Weaknesses: Channeling the gods has influenced her personality. This may increase over the years.

Ons: She loves exhibitionism, orgies, and sodomy. Her breasts are a particular focus of her desires.
Offs: Being bored. She has no interest in pregnancy, Greek mythology isn't know for parents and children getting along.

Character Theme: Iggy Azalea - "Goddess"
Plot Seeds: Fame is fun but not all attention is good.

[Deathnote]

Name: Wallace Rudolph West
Codename/Nomme de Guerre: The Flash III (formerly Kid Flash I)
Age: 21
Species: Human (Meta)
Sex: Male
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual

Appearance: He has red hair, green eyes, and a sinewy body build.  He stands at approximately 5 feet 11 inches.
Faceclaim: KJ Appa

History:

Wally West was one of if not the biggest fan of the Flash.  His aunt, Iris West knew that it was Wally West's biggest dream to meet the real Flash.  Barry Allen was a forensic scientist and Iris had hoped that with his police connections, he might be able to set up some sort of meeting.  One summer, Wally went to visit his aunt in Central City and was excited because that was where the Flash operated.  Barry Allen brought Wally to the Central City Police laboratory and it was there that Wally got to meet his hero, the Flash.  Through some freak coincidence, the same freak accident that gave the Flash his powers repeated itself, this time granting Wally the same speed powers.  With these new powers, Wally became Kid Flash I and fought crime alongside his new mentor, The Flash II... AKA Barry Allen.

Some time ago, the Justice League, including Barry Allen had died.  After learning of Barry's death, Wally took over his duties by protecting both Central City and Keystone City.  It became apparent, however, that Barry Allen wasn't coming back and Wally was going to have to take over the mantle.  During an encounter with Reverse-Flash, Wally was forced to push his powers to the limit and break through the psychological block he had placed on himself.  To prevent himself from truly "replacing" Barry, Wally had subconsciously limited his speed so that he could never become his mentor's equal, but Reverse-Flash's bragging that he would become the true Flash forced Wally past this block as he feared Reverse-Flash replacing Barry more than he feared himself doing so.  This breakthrough was the first step toward allowing Wally to discover the Speed Force and his special connection to this extra-dimensional source of energy.  In the aftermath of the conflict, Wally took up the mantle of the Flash.

Personality: Wally West had always wanted to be a superhero ever since he was a little kid.  He has a tendency to be hot-headed and impatient, but he has also proven to be quick-witted and clever.  He's the type to act before he thinks, which has gotten him into trouble more than once before.  If he unintentionally insults someone, he will display genuine regret, apologizing or offering to make it up to the offended party.  He also has a strong vision of the future and displays uncanny deductive reasoning, most likely due to his aptitude in science.

Powers:

Super Speed - The Flash has the ability to move faster than the speed of sound.  Recently, Wally has discovered that he could go much much faster than the speed of sound.  The fastest he has ever gone was faster than Mach 10, but even then it is unknown whether or not that is his true top speed.  His mentor, Barry Allen was eventually able to move faster than the speed of light, after all...

(Extra note: Wally went faster than the speed of light during his fight against Reverse Flash.  He has yet to be able to achieve such a speed again ever since.)

Accelerated Cognition - His super speed includes the ability to enhance his perception to match his speed.

Protective Aura - He has an aura that protects him from friction and makes him tough enough to withstand the forces that come with moving at superhuman speeds.  This aura also somehow prevents damage to the environment that would normally happen when one moves at super speeds.

Accelerated healing factor

Lending and Taking Speed - His connection to the Speed Force allows him to temporarily turn others into speedsters or bolster their metabolisms and healing abilities.  He can also take away a person's speed and indirectly absorb kinetic energy (i.e., prevent earthquakes).

Speed Force Costume - He can somehow use pure Speed Force energy to create a costume for himself.

Able to run on water

Able to create powerful vortexes with his arms and/or body

Able to vibrate and become invisible to the human eye

Potentially capable of vibrating past solid objects (doing so may destabilize said solid object and cause it to explode)

Special Qualities: While he could come off as a bit childish and immature, he is capable of being quick-witted and clever.

Abilities:

1) Has a keen scientific mind - He's an expert in physics, biology, and geology.  Currently working on a degree in Forensic Science.

2) Mechanical Aptitude - Used to work part-time as a car mechanic to pay his way through college.

3) Hand-to-hand - Picked up some basic hand-to-hand combat skills from various other superheroes, including Barry Allen.

Special Equipment: A ring in which he keeps his costume

Limitations/Weaknesses: Wally's super speed comes with an accelerated metabolism, meaning that he would have to consume a lot more food than the average man of his size and age.  While he has control over his accelerated perception of time, if he's not consciously controlling it, he may end up activating it without even noticing.  For example, he could be standing in line for what would feel like hours on end.  Only when he starts paying attention will he realize that only five seconds have passed in "real" time.

As a fan of the Young Justice series, how would the Nightwing and Wally West players feel about an Kaldur/Aqualad/Aquaman, possibly with a similar background having operated as a team before prior to the death of the JL? Obviously, some events like the Season 2 finale would have gone differently or not have happened at all.

[VoluptuousVixen]

I'm fine with Aqualad aka Kalder in the game. Please feel free to whip up a Bio for Him, I love Kalder.
I've got other chars in reserve for members such as Nightwing, Black Lightening, Superboy, Beast Boy

[Ghostly Muse]

Name: Richard "Dick" Grayson
Codename/Nomme de Guerre: Nightwing(Formerly Robin)
Age: (assuming he is leading the team I will make him in the middle since he would need to be old enough to be respected but being trained under Batman he doesn't have to be the oldest to feel up to commanding or assembling the team) 20?
Species: Human
Gender: (or whatever you want/need this field to be to best express your character's identity)
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual

Appearance:   


Faceclaim: Young Milo Ventimiglia

History:  The youngest in a family of acrobats known as the "Flying Graysons," Dick watched as a mafia boss killed his parents in order to extort money from the circus that employed them (whose name was later revealed to be Tony Zucco.) Bruce Wayne, secretly the vigilante Batman, took him in as his legal ward after witnessing their deaths, and eventually as his sidekick, Robin.
Throughout Dick's adolescence, Batman and Robin were inseparable. However, as Dick grew older and spent more time as the leader of the Teen Titans, he decided to take on the identity of Nightwing to assert his independence. Dick is far more team oriented than his mentor and when the heroes of the Justice League are believed to be dead, though something Dick is still struggling to confirm for himself, he feels he is the best trained, thanks to Bruce.. to provide the stable and guiding force to prepare a team to answer the call in the Justice league's absence.

Personality: Dick is fairly level headed, confident and reliable. He can have an edge to him especially when eager to prove himself, as Batman's critical shadow has always loomed large over him. He is meticulous and unlike his mentor in many ways he puts his faith and trust in others and attempt to be a much more positive and encouraging rather than the guarded and rigid teacher Bruce Wayne was to him. Flirtatious at times and fiercely loyal to friends like Wally West(The Flash(since he was Kid Flash), Roy Harper(Red Arrow/Speedy), Kaldur(Aqualad),  Garfield Logan(Beast Boy), Conner Kent(Superboy) and of course Koriand'r( Kori aka Starfire) his first love.

Powers: Dick Grayson has no powers.
Special Qualities: Nightwing has a sharp strategic and analytical mind from his years under Batman's guidance. He is also exceptionally skilled in many martial arts and non lethal weapons, such as his Escrima sticks, his weapon of choice since donning the black and blue suit. He is also an exceptionally tech savvy computer hacker and programmer. His leadership abilities may set him apart the most from even the great Batman.
Abilities: As listed about skilled in various fields of science, technology, philosophy and psychology. Gifted martial artist and acrobat.
Special Equipment: The primary weapon of Nightwing, his Escrima Sticks are wielded as both offensive and defensive weapons. Made of an unbreakable polymer with electrically charged tips, acting like stun sticks. Together, they can generate a pulse of electricity to knock opponents off their feet. He also has batarangs, bat cable grappling hooks, various tools and equipment of his own on his belt to be prepared for countless situations. He also will have access to the base out Mount Justice to provide the team with support and equipment that the league and Batman, always the meticulous strategist for contingencies, would have left in case of emergency.

Limitations/Weaknesses: Dick is human, and aside from any substantial armor or equipment created, is certainly the most physically fragile member of he team as far as physical limitations. But having been around meta humans and facing off against them for almost a decade he is very aware and prepared for the challenges that brings. But he is highly resistant to mind control and mental attacks for a human.

Biography

Jefferson Pierce is a normal man who grows up in South Side, Suicide Slums, with a dream of success one day. After becoming an Olympic gold medalist in the decathlon and a college graduate, he moves to Metropolis after  his wife, Lynn Stewart and Alvin Pierce are killed after trying to open the eyes of the public to the scams of local con man Tobias Whale.  Jefferson is a principal at several schools and is respected for all the good he has done in the neighborhoods and schools he had been in previously. The Wayne Education Trust gives him a grant to come back to South Side to try to do the same there. They look at him as "our last best hope for successful leadership in urban education reform." Jeff sees how bad it is, mostly due to the 100 and Tobias Whale, so he decides to do something with his hidden electricity powers discovered by his wife. He becomes Black Lightning after seeing the quote "Justice--Like Lightning-- Should Ever Appear To Some Men Hope, To Other Men, Fear." He fights local crime at night as a super hero. He is the principal of Garfield High School and he gets to know a student by the name of Earl Clifford. Earl is killed and this starts the end of the 100 and Tobias Whale. Black Lightning eventually defeats them both with the help of Superman. 

Superpowers & Equipment

Powers:
Enhanced Conditioning: Though years removed from his Olympic career, Black Lightning obviously keeps in shape. He’s still 220 pounds of solid muscle and a world-class decathlete, giving him above average strength, speed, and stamina. He possess amazing physical prowess, he’s also a superior acrobat and stealth operative.
Enhanced Stamina: Black Lightning possess highly developed musculature, due to his Olympic training. The electricity generated by his body also reduces fatigue, allowing him to exert himself for long durations of time.
Enhanced Endurance: Being 220 pounds of solid muscle and a world-class decathlete, Black Lightning can endure more physical stress (physical pain, high heat, beatings, etc.) then normal humans.
Enhanced Strength: Black Lighting being in top physical shape, allows him to be stronger then normal humans. He can increase his overall strength by stimulating his muscles with electricity. Black Lightning can further enhance his strength to superhuman levels, by erecting a force field around his body. He often uses his force field to intimidate attackers, as to show them he can ignore their attacks. While his force field is active, he can perform movement actions that are trivial for him, such as swinging from a rope. If he intends to use that movement to attack opponents, he will keep his force field on during the phases he’s swinging from said rope, than at the beginning of the next phase cut his force field off, and uses his superior initiative to attack before the opposition can react.
Lightning Fast Reflexes/Agility: Black Lightning is capable of reacting at lightning speeds. His mind and eyes can process information at such speeds, that time appears to have slowed down.
Superhuman Speed: Black Lightning can move at the speed of lightning.
Flight: Black Lightning can fly by charging his lower body with electric energy. He's capable of flying at the speed of sound a bit faster.
Enhanced Senses: Black Lightning's senses have been honed to their peak.
Electrokinesis: Black Lightning can generate, control, and manipulate electricity. Exactly how much electrical energy Black Lightning can generate is unknown, but he can easily stun and/or kill a man with his internal powers. As time passes, Black Lightning's powers have become more and more powerful.
•   Bio-Electricity Manipulation: Black Lightning can manipulate bio-electric currents that exist within all aspects of the body existing in the nervous system, heart and muscles whether his own or his targets. He can channel his bio-electrical energy into attacks, or even drain the bio-electrical energies that may dwell within another being.
•   Electricity Absorption: Black Lightning can absorb electrical energy, and utilize it for various purposes which include: enhancing his speed, convert the electrical energy into some other form of energy, use the electrical energy to regenerate/heal himself, and enhance all his powers/abilities.
•   Electricity Projection:   Black Lightning can project electricity through his hands to stun his enemies. His blasts/projections can vary in color (Blue, Yellow, Red, etc.). The electrical currents are capable of killing people. Black Lightning can increase his electrical projections by simply ionizing the hydrogen atoms in the atmosphere, creating ultra-high level static discharges and having the potential to create electrical storms that have hundreds of lightning strikes per minute (the average lightning strike contains a billion volts of electricity). He can discharge streams of electricity in the form of arc-strands, or single arcs that resemble lightning bolts, to attack his opponents. Black Lightning is capable of discharging destructive electrical energy that flows through the air negating all resistance that may be received from air or space. The destructive electrical energy is capable of destroying an entire area.
•   Electrical Healing: Black lightning can heal himself and others by using electricity. By absorbing electrons, he can using them to stimulate molecules, and renew damaged cells. He was able to restart Superman's heart, after the Man of Steel had suffered from a near-fatal Kryptonite exposure.
•   Electrical Telekinesis: Black Lightning can manipulate matter on a telekinetic scale, with the use of Electromagnetism.
•   Electrical Detection: Black Lightning is able to track the resonance of a broadcast frequency to a location of where its coming from, this sense can be passive or active: Passive: In passive electrolocation, he senses the weak bioelectric fields generated by living beings, and uses the bioelectric fields to locate them. These electric fields are generated by everything living, due to the activity of their nerves and muscles. Active: In active electrolocation, he senses his surrounding environment by generating electric fields, and detecting distortions in these fields, using electroreceptor organs. This allows him to detect non-living objects as well as living beings.
•   Electric Field Manipulation: Black Lightning can manipulate electric fields. He can also generate electrical fields of his own, to form tangible force-fields, and various other purposes.
•   Force Fields:   Black Lightning can generate highly concentrated electric force fields, that are powerful enough to deflect high caliber bullets and high levels of impact. The force fields are also capable of withstanding tremendous physical attacks, Metahumans, oncoming vehicles, grenades, explosives, artillery fire, missiles, fire, and most energy attacks.
•   Electrical Transportation: Black Lightning can transport himself by electricity, lightning, or electronics. He can also transport by the electrons in the air, static discharges, and electrical components. Black Lightning can also make lightning strike his body, to transport his own molecules from one point to another.
•   Electrical Form: Black Lightning possesses intense bio-electrical energy within his own body, which allows him to transform into pure electrical energy. He has impressive control over this form, and vast capacity to expel electricity in various ways. While in his Electrical Form he's immune to poisons, bacteria diseases, and can even survive without oxygen. Black Lightning can also pass through solid matter, move at supernatural speed, and fly at speeds that exceeds sound.
Anger Empowerment: Black Lightning becomes stronger, faster, more durable, etc. the angrier he gets. Overall, his powers become dramatically more powerful, the madder he gets. In a battle with Geo Force, his powers became more and more intense as he got angrier. With this increase in power, Black Lightning shattered blocks of the Markovian Village.
Black Lightning Manipulation: Black Lightning has learned to generate and control black lightning (mystical dark electricity), which ignores the limitations and weaknesses of normal lightning. Black Lightning can wield it like normal electricity, and also use its mystical power for wide variety of attack and effects.
Electromagnetism Manipulation: Black Lightning can create and manipulate electromagnetism through Electrokinesis.
Energy Aura: Black Lightning can release and surround himself in electrical energy for defensive/offensive purposes, becoming almost untouchable and granting him various abilities/attacks. The electrical aura gives him enhanced physical capabilities such as speed, strength and durability.
Ionization: Black Lightning can ionize different types of atoms and molecules, by simply heating up air/gas, electrical activity, or changes in the air's electric fields, etc. He can create plasma that he can use as a ionized air channel/medium to allow electric current to flow through, thereby creating electricity. He can also tap into a variety of different energies and cause certain ionization to produce positive electricity.
Positive Electricity Manipulation: Black Lightning can manipulate electricity that has a positive charge.
Physical Lightning Manipulation: Black Lightning can manipulate physical electrical and electromagnetic phenomena.
Stealth: Black Lightning is remarkably stealthy, and can even pull off Batman-like disappearing tricks. His stealth and ability to shadow people isn't just a linked skill, it’s an important part of his modus operandi.
