Legend

Warning: Big huge massive spoilers potentially ahead.

Legend is a superhero technically operating under the Protectorate, but better known for leading his own Brazilian hero group simply known as "Team Blue Bird" to English speakers. He is ranked the highest among all Protectorate heroes due to his immensely powerful abilities and generally charismatic behavior.

## Secret Identity

Legend's civilian identity is the spix macaw beastfolk known as Roberto Silveira, who has a career blogging about camping and wilderness survival. Much like Eidolon, however, this civilian identity was fabricated by Cauldron, and he was previously known as Test Subject 02 in the "super formula" project.

## Visual Appearance

### Hero Costume

Roberto's costume as Legend consists of a white sleeveless top with shoulder pads that extend into a stiff collar, and white pants with boots and knee pads. His top features the outline of a large, simplified lightning bolt engraved into the front, and the space it encloses glows blue when he uses his powers. The lightly armored parts of his costume are entirely unnecessary since his power is almost constantly active during fights, and he only included them to look cooler.

### Civilian Form

Roberto Silveira typically wears casual and outdoorsy clothes consisting mostly of denim and flannel, the style of which can be describe as "the exact opposite of baggy."

## Personality Traits

In his civilian form, Roberto presents himself as a vacant jock who's concerned with nothing more than having a good time and showing off how attractive he is. This persona is simultaneously a means for Roberto to relax his mind in his off time, and to ensure that he behaves differently between his costumed and civilian identities.

As Legend, Roberto still has a chill, relaxing vibe to him that calms bystanders and initimidates villains with his apparent extreme confidence. However, Legend is far more driven and calculating than Roberto, and more prone to trickery and deceit disguised by his laid-back charm.

## Plot Contributions

### 2000-2019

Roberto was born in the year 2000, and lived a relative carefree life in the Amazon jungle until he was kidnapped and smuggled to the United States by the Church of Civility in 2007. He was then subjected to the Church's unspeakable torture for three years, during which they surgically amputated his wings. Eventually, Roberto was rescued by in 2010 by the SCP Foundation in a raid that was thought at the time to have been the end of the Church of Civility. Roberto stayed with the SCP Foundation for two years as a potential candidate for the Omega-7 Program until the Exceeder exposed the paranormal world to the general public, and the Foundation was forcibly annexed by the United States government as the Federal Bureau of Control.

In 2015, a teenage Roberto became one of the first candidates of the Cauldron "super-formula" program alongside Rebecca Costa-Brown. While his fellow test subject reacted well to the formula, Roberto himself nearly died from its still unrefined effects, and ended up experiencing a true trigger event in the process.

### 2020-2030

In 2021, Roberto was deployed against the Wave Titan's very first attack, where he became known as the Laser Hero Legend and quickly rose in popularity.

Roberto was reunited with his childhood friend Jewel in 2027, and accidentally publicized the fact that he was homosexual while teasing Jewel's then husband Blu. Later that same year, he formed Team Blue Bird with the Gunderson family.

### 2030-2040

Roberto was not present during the events that took place in the summer of 2034, because he was busy battling the Mimic Titan as part of a Cauldron experiment.

## Notable Abilities

### Musical Skill

Roberto is naturally talented at singing and songwriting, and he often uploads music videos onto his blog. This ability is mainly useless during combat.

### Amazonian Abilities

Roberto was born to wild beastfolk in the Amazon rainforest, so he has some abilities normally exclusive to feral spix macaws, including heightened senses, enhanced reflexes, and the ability to fly. However, Roberto lost his natural flight when his wings were removed by the Church of Civility.

### Exceed Skill: Radiant Avatar

Roberto's Exceed Skill allows him to transform into a being made out of pure energy. In his transformed state, Roberto is immune to most forms of physical damage, does not need to eat, sleep, or breathe, does not produce waste, can fly at supersonic speed, and is able to fire powerful energy beams from all exposed areas of his body that home in on targets of his choosing. The only real downside to his Exceed Skill is that the longer he remains in his transformed state, the less mentally lucid he becomes, which is theorized to eventually lead him into a trance-like state where he would attack everyone around him indiscriminately. To mitigate this, Roberto often makes jokes in the midst of battle to keep his mind sharp.
