HelpCreate-A-Superhuman Family 2
#1 - http://www.behindthename.com/bb/game/4172383
Hello! I'm so glad people actually want to play :). Anyone who didn't make it in time for Round 1 is still welcome to play. All you need to do is complete the previous round. I won't be copying everyone's information, but I'll include the previous rounds.
In this round you'll be creating your significant other. This person also has a superhuman ability. It's your choice, but no mixing the sources of your abities. Ex. if you're a mutant, your significant other can't be a mythical creature. Try to pick something that hasn't been used yet. Now all you need to do is answer a few questions.
1. What is his/her name?
2. What is his/her physical appearance? (You're welcome to use photos)
3. What is his/her superhuman ability and how did he/she get it?
4. How did you two meet?

Hi! I hope it's okay if I sign up now. Here's a link to my first round sign up - http://www.behindthename.com/bb/game/4174028.
Also, as a general question, how can I add pictures to my posts? Sorry, I'm new and I don't have a clue, haha.
Name: Dorian Viktor Martinek
Alias: Toxic
Age: 24
Appearance: Tall, and unlike in the picture, rather skinny and scrawny, as as a child he was often sickly and ill. He's never really needed to rely on brute strength, and so has only viewed his thin form as a detriment when he's in a situation where he can't concentrate and activate his mutant abilities. His skin-tone is pale and slightly olive, and hair a generic dark shade - black, with the slightest hint of dark brown. His eyes are a golden amber brown in colour, cheekbones slightly prominent and features somewhat unremarkable. He isn't what one would call classically good looking, but fairly average and pretty hard to distinguish from any other man on the street. He has a tendency to frown a little too much, especially when concentrating, but this is more often out of habit, concentration, stress or frustration than any real act of aggression or anger, a soft-spoken second-generation blurred and generic "Eastern European" accent and an infectious laugh which sometimes hilariously strays into stereotypical evil-villain-laugh territory. As a "former" supervillain of middling infamy, Toxic's costume is generic but well-made, primarily teal and black, with teal belt, embellishments, boots and mask and an all-black remainder. His logo, much to his perpetual annoyance, is the Hazchem symbol for radioactive (his suit designer shrugged and went "Meh, is Hazchem symbol!" all those years ago when he was first starting out), but as he has control over some toxic substances which might be considered radioactive, he has let it slide, and to be honest, most people have overlooked that detail anyway.

Jeremy Wolfe met Anya Streff when they both tried to save somebody. Jeremy was stricken by her--well... certainly not her beauty!
When Anya had time to explain to Jeremy about her "super hero look," she explained that she dreamt she was swimming one night and that she became some sort of dragon-alligator-thing. The next day, when she woke up, she was! She now can control water.

1. Wilhelmina Python
2. 18 yrs old; petite; fair complexion; long, straight, black hair; black eyes
3. Technopathy. She comes from a family of mutants. Nothing is known of her parents because neither are a part of her life, but her 5 older brothers all have abilities. When she was born the hospital experienced a momentary blackout that's source was never detected. It wasn't until puberty that her abilities fully manifested, though. Usually she must be in physical contact with a device to have complete control, but occasionally her emotions can cause glitches.

1. Francis Mack
2. 18 yrs old; tall; muscular: large canine teeth; tan complexion; short, brown hair; brown eyes; large hands & feet
3. Superhuman Senses. His mutation was more physical and, therefore, apparent from birth. After being abandoned by his parents, he was raised in an orphanage until 18. Normally he is an intelligent and gentle person, but in certain circumstances his animalistic side will come out.
4. When Francis was considering university, he wanted to get as far away from his Midwestern hometown as possible. Wilhelmina, on the other hand, wanted to stay close to the English countryside where her beloved brothers raised her. Both were accepted at a lesser known university in London, which is where they met.
Wilhelmina was a math major and Francis studied English. They just happened to sit next to each other in the first two chairs of the front rows for both the English and math classes. Their first English assignment was to answer questions about themselves and put it into a short paper.

Posted a question on your round one, just to let you know.
Name: Lennox Walter Johnson, alias Vanquish
Age: 24
Appearance: Curly, messy brown hair and deep-set grey eyes. The picture isn't quite how I see him - Lennox-in-my-head is smallish, and a little too thin-looking for his own good.
Power(s): Invisibility. Lennox could make all or portions of himself invisible by will. This can extend to other things, such as his clothes or things he's holding onto, but it takes more effort from him.
Backstory: Lennox Johnson was born into a large family (he was the oldest son with three siblings: Marcia, Ellie, and Sandro), and with their family's lack of money, he had often watched over his siblings while his parents toil day and night to provide bread on the table. However, while Lennox was witty and street-smart, he was not exactly a prodigy in his education, and with the lack of money he decided not to go to university. Working odd-jobs to provide for his siblings proved to be not quite enough, and despite inner turmoil, Lennox eventually took up to petty theft.
It was during one such thieving case that his mischief caught up with him. Lennox found himself trapped while breaking into a rather unhinged scientist's laboratory, and before he could escape, was exposed to such doses of the scientist's experimental rays that he became completely and entirely invisible. Frightened and shocked, Lennox managed to return home, only to find that his family had now feared him in turn. In time, though, they stuck together and covered for Lennox's disappearance, doing their best to accomodate the newly-invisible man. It took a week until he could learn to control his invisibility enough to be able to toggle it on and off, and longer still for it to be selective.
Later on, disgusted by his former life of crime, Lennox took up to superheroics, creating the identity of Vanquish, a mysterious crime-fighter who literally vanishes into thin air after doing his good deeds. It was on one of these crime-fighting nights that another superhero literally ran into the then-invisible Lennox: Veritas had "felt" the presence of another person, but she did not expect to ram into nothing! In time, the two superheroes bonded, became friends, and eventually more than friends. By now, Lennox and Velvela have not only fought crime together, their civilian identities are also engaged to each other.

I'm sorry I did see the question earlier. I suppose that being American, I assumed almost everything would take place in present-day America. Although, I've also considered that some characters would be of different nationalities. Sort of like in Heroes where you've Hiro from Japan and Hana Gitelman from Israel, but they're in America. I actually imagine mine to be British, perhaps that's the anglophile in me.

OK, thanks!
I'm labeling it in my head as Earth-58 from now on. Unless such a thing exists already.
