Blazerunner (Max Blaze)(Earth 42A)

Slightly improved concept

## Origins of Blaze-Runner

Blaze-Runner (Max Blaze) is the earth 42A version of the Max Blaze from earth 1A. in this version Blaze travels to an active volcano in Iceland (Eyjafjallajökull) due to Chronos INC. expanding to volcanic research to measure internal and external heat of the moment of eruption. while on the volcano, Blaze discovers a strange dark green crystal with mysterious properties, at that exact moment the volcano erupts and lightning strikes fusing the crystal with Blaze giving him extreme control over speed and heat.

## Time spent in the ruins of Earth 42A

After the Infini-Bomb fell and destroyed all of Earth 42A bar its physical form, the whole planet turned into a lava stricken waste land with no life except on lonely man who could not be killed by the lava, no matter how many times he shoved his head into it. Blaze was stuck on Earth 42A for 200 years after the end of civilisation, he spent most of his time learning how to make ash spawn to keep himself sane, he even managed to make a sentient one once that broke free of Blaze's control but chose to stay with Blaze after it to realised the fate of its planet, Blaze called the Ash spawn Stephen as it was an easy name to remember. Stephen chose to stay behind on Earth 42A after realising he could never blend into normal society. Blaze and Stephen attempted to make a new race of civilisation by trying to create more sentient Ash spawn but to no avail. for 134 years, all Blaze and Stephen did was play Rock, paper, scissors or eye spy and a couple other games to keep them from going insane which ultimately failed in the end as Blaze cracked to the radiation in the air and ceased making sense to Stephen who could only watch as Blaze started mumbling about the man who could control the clock and the God among men who robs people. Stephen managed to make Blaze speak normal again or though this did not fix his mental state. after another 66 years the pair tried to fix the state of the planet they inhabit, all there schemes to right the wrongs all failed in the end until the day the Gate of ages revealed itself to the pair and as stated before, Blaze entered and Stephen remained.

## Introduction to earth 1A

After receiving his new powers, Blaze takes on the super hero persona Blaze-Runner to quell the crime rate in Sunrise City. After months of learning about and how to control his powers, Blaze is lured miles away from the city by Bloodshot, to an abandoned nuclear power station where he and Bloodshot have the final battle of earth 42A as by the end of the battle, DeadTime (in a god like state) sets of the Infini-Bomb to destroy earth 42A in an intense ball of fire that will swallow the whole planet and near by solar systems. Blaze has no where near the power to stop or absorb the bomb due to the weakness from the Pyro-Dampener forced to where by Bloodshot at the end of the battle. Blaze has to watch as his whole world burn's around which almost completely shatters him and drives him to near-insanity with only brief glimpses of sanity every few decades.

It is 200 years exactly after the bomb when an inter-dimensional portal is opens up on the last remaining piece of landmass on Blazes planet of which Blaze and Stephen was standing on. The portal lead to the 'untouched' world of Earth 1A the centre of the multiverse. The second Blaze steps on to earth 1A his powers are weakened due to the frequency of the planet. This is due to the fact that the Earths vibrate at different frequencies that can not be felt unless you have certain ability's of elements or other powers such as time. Due to this, Blaze is nothing but a ghost, hopping into and out of reality. But before that begins he finds Crimson who at the time was inflicted with "TWENTY EIGHT STAB WOUNDS" and was pretty much dead.

## Highjinks of Earth 1A

After being able to exist in the frequency of Earth 1A, Blaze-runner chooses to live among the people of the planet until he comes terms with all the past of events, he acquires an apartment through 'means' and discovered a soul crushing, ironic twist to his new location, his family counterparts live in the apartment below him, at this point Earth 1A Max Blaze is dead and so he could easily return to his old life, but chooses not to as he knows that deep down, they are truly not his own.

## True Self

Blaze's true inner self is never seen by almost any of the T.A.H heroes or the Entity's of Time. Blaze's true self is a dishevelled wreck of a man who had nothing truly left to lose, not even the mind bending powers of Charlie King can truly see the mess of anger that the real Blaze is. The joking, stupid man that is shown is just a facade. There has only been Three instances of the real Blaze being seen, one was when DeadTime attempted to remove Blazes powers in a secrete laboratory on earth 1A which ended up with the whole lab being destroyed completely, another instance was when he personally carried out the brutal execution of Max Blaze of earth 1A. The final time the real Blaze was shown was during the war of the gods. The real Blaze's inner rage was the final strike that started the war of the gods and the intense dispute between him and Charlie King.

The final time that the true Blaze was shown was in the final battle of the war. When Charlie King destroyed the source of Blaze's powers which in turn, infused Blaze's body with the powers of the stone which unlocked its full power, just like when Blaze had destroyed the Kings sword which unlocked the full power of the 'Kings potential'. The power destroyed the mental block keeping the real Blaze hidden from the world. The fight between Crimson and the real Blaze was the toughest fight Crimson had ever had due to the powers being on par with each-other and neither side having an advantage. The battle, the real battle lasted seconds but the leading battle revealed Blaze's true self to King and this forever changed Crimson's perception of the Pyro-Sprinter forever.

## Blazes encounter with 4 and 12

Due to Blaze capturing DeadTime which goes against the rules of time, he is sent into a time loop in the Time-Verse where he encounters two of the 12 entities of time. During the loop, Blaze learns of the coming war and of his doppelganger known as Splash-Dash. The Entity's reveal the coming event known as the war of the gods, the Four heroes of immense power all battle for a reason that will become lost to time. To the Entity's, Blaze has been in the realm for 1 hour but to Blaze, he has been trapped in the loop for 5 days as the perception of time is different for all who enter the ream. Blaze also learns of an immensely powerful being known as the avatar. The entity's claim that the avatar is the founder of the entity's and the order of time. The final piece of information that Blaze learns is that Deadtime is a servant of time and is bound by strict rules and due to this, Blaze demands to know where the rule to not destroy planes is which 12 responds that his world was chosen at random along with two other worlds to be destroyed.

4 tells Blaze that he is a true anomaly as the other 2 planets had no survivors and so, the Entity's suspect that DeadTime chose him to survive by placing a time barrier around blaze during the destruction of his home world. this new information stuns Blaze, but after a few moments of silence, Blaze comes to the conclusion that Chronos (DeadTime) chose to save him for his own selfish gain. This accusation is neither confirmed nor denied by 12 and 4 who both tell Blaze that by saving him, Chronos risked his connection to the entity's of time and is the sole reason why DeadTime was held captive by the entities before making him return to his duties.

## Final battle in war of the gods

After Blaze-Runner returns from earth 72B, his memory of the past 20 years or so from leaving earth 42A and coming over to earth 1A have been erased by the attempt made by Blaze to restore his memory completely as the radiation and initial impact of the Infini-Bomb made him forget about his time within the cult of Chronos and he only retained his fighting skills, how to speak English and his name along with distorted memory's of earth 42A before its destruction. Upon returning to the centre of the multiverse his presence is immediately detected by Crimson who has been searching for him as well as keeping the whole city plus the world held together with nothing but some discount Elmer's glue he found at the back of his tool draw in his shed.

When Crimson finds Blaze, he questions him on where he went for the last 6 months (give or take), Blaze at this point having no recollection of Crimson outside of his doppelganger Bloodshot who last time to Blazes stunted knowledge, had him paralysed while his home planet burned around him. so instinctively, Blaze swings at Crimson without using his powers as he forgot they existed, this ends up with Blaze on the ground with a saw jaw (leave the spelling alone its a pun damn it). this is what Blaze needed to acquire his lost memory and after regaining the ability to see straight, realises that he's supposed to be in a Civil War as well as now remembering all the really intense training undertaken by him during his cult days turns to Crimson and says this prestigious banger "Aight, this has been a long time coming you portable jumper cable!" this leads to intense combat which most people couldn't see as it was that fast plus some people did go deaf in the fight as it broke the sound barrier several times.

The fight rages on until it reaches the top of the Chronos Weapons factory upon which, Blaze shatters Crimsons near unbreakable sword of the Kings which releases a god like energy that imbues Crimson with powers of that of a GOD and removes Blaze's Stone from his body which is the source of his powers and shatters it into several pieces before his eyes, this intern gives Blaze the full power of the stone in order to keep the stones host alive to make sure a suitable replacement for the stone can be found or made, the power from the stone levels out the playing field so that the true War of The Gods can commence, this is an epic battle that shakes the very earth and nearly cracks the planet in half, the whole showdown ends when both fists of equal power collide as it was for-told for thousands of centuries.

the immense power connecting in such a strike rips a hole in the fabric of just about everything the two god like entity's enter and partake in the race of ages. This race leads them stranded in the 1600s without powers, and leaves Blaze with a clear sense of mind.

## The Cult of Chronos

The Cult of Chronos is a secrete military branch of Joseph Chronos's company. Blaze runner was the leader of the elite division which had the higher class fighters trained in martial arts and advanced weaponry training. Charlie King of Earth 42A was the leader of the assassin division which has skilled warriors trained in almost every form of martial arts and have been trained to incorporate melee weapons into there fighting styles. King was also the general overseer of the whole operation under Chronos, but that title was stripped from him when they started to gather a bunch more recruits and he wanted an even playing field, which King thought was unfair. Viktor Slaznikov was the leader of the Heavy division which had solders that used heavy weaponry such as Mini-gun's, bazookas and so on, they where trained to withstand extreme amounts of physical pain and to give out twice as much as they revive. Hector Clyde was the leader of the intellectuals division, which handled the advanced I.T methods used by the company and the cult, and they where the ones who would advise the Cult Operators and Joseph Chronos himself on matters of up most urgency.

To find a new overseer, Chronos had all four of these clans would compete in what is known as "The Tournament", which means the leader of each division would go into a high stakes match of strength, intelligence, Skill in the field and over all leadership to decide who becomes the the next Cult Overseer. The Cult Overseer is the highest position in the cult and there job is to govern the Cult and to take orders from Chronos himself and no one else. The rules of the Cult Overseer's position are simple, if a new leader wins the tournament then they will become the next Cult Overseer, and if the tournament is a draw then the current Cult Overseer remains the same. If a cult Overseer is killed before the tournament begins, then an emergency meeting is held and the four leaders agree via vote on who the next leader will be.

For the past 5 tournaments, the final battle 'Strength' has been a draw between Blaze and King as Chronos kept secretly giving King challenges that would hinder his performance, and the anger of having to obey, led them to draw every time. This changed on the sixth tournament when Blaze entered the battle with his new found powers, the battle normally lasts for days but this time it lasted for 3 hours. King put up a good fight but his reflexes were not quick enough for inhuman speed and strength. When Blaze became the Cult Overseer, the Cult grew in size until Chronos had a vision of the future and saw that Blaze would Destroy the planet. This led to Chronos Drugging Blaze one night and using advanced machinery, Blocked any memory of the cult and how he got his powers. Chronos implanted new memories but forgot to remove his fighting skills. Chronos set Blaze up with a new life, with him still in reach in hope to spare the planet from destruction, this only kick-started the reaction that would kill all life on Earth 42A.

## Powers

Pyrokinesis

Super Speed that is only bested by crimson (Charlie king)

Put it simply, this boy is the second fastest in the whole of T.A.H

Super Nova as a last resort, it looks a bit like the tsar bomb

He can enter the HUB.

There are types of speedster in the T.A.H universe: Blaze-runner is a 'Pyro-sprinter'

Has the ability to control ash from fallen foes or structures to turn into ash spawn, creatures of a humanoid shape with no noticeable features, they are controlled mentally by Blaze.

Can form armour around him that is made of the same material as the Rock that gave him his powers for a short period of time.

## The Rock (Reality Shard)

The Time Relic is what gives Blaze his powers on the volcano. The rock is rich with energy from the entity's of Reality which is why the elements where drawn to the holder infusing said holder with there ability's in this case giving Blaze the power of fire and speed, Fire from the volcano and enhances perception of time and speed from the lightning. The Rock comes from a larger asteroid known as the prism that crashed in Iceland and created the volcano which is technically a crater.

The rock itself is made of an almost indestructible material called Chronosium, this means that only beings of immense power can break or even crack it, some of these beings are the entity's 1 through 13 of time, Blaze-Runner himself, Crimson (on a bad day), Deadtime (if he gives it some elbow grease) and the entity's of reality. the stone when inside Blaze, turn into a liquid like substance that covers his rib-cage and acts as a type of armour if you will. if blaze where to really concentrate, he can summon a full body set of this armour but doing so drains his energy significantly.

## Fixing Earth 42A and the end of Blaze-Runner's story.

after most events in the T.A.H timeline, Blaze-runner returns to earth 42A via The Eternity Gate. upon returning to the still burning planet, Blaze begins by using PyroKinesis to fix most of the intense damages such as the lava sea that has appeared due to the initial impact of the Infini-Bomb. Blaze finished by extinguishing all flames on the planet which in turn, weakened him as a result of a lack of an energy source. Blaze asks Deadtime to show him earth 42A 4 trillion years after extinguishing the planet to see if new life would emerge, Deadtime begrudgingly agrees and shows blaze a future where civilisation has returned to normal and has even advanced over humanity. Blaze, knowing he will almost live to see this as his ageing process was slowed to a near stop but is not immortal, builds a house on island and lets time and nature take its course. Earth 42A's history books claim he remained there until he finally yielded to age after living peacefully for 3 trillion years, although some say the history books are wrong. The true tale tells of him willing all the power he could possibly hold, to destroy the fire and flames that he originally brought upon the world. This tale is told by few, but the few that knew thought it were true, and there was only one witness, and that was himself, the one true Blaze, the one that saved his Earth from the plague he caused, the virus that lasted for billions of years from the day that the blast happened. But in truth, he was the destroyer and creator of life on Earth 42A, Ironic.

## The Chronicles of Blaze

These are the epilogue saga's of Blaze-runner after the main events of the T.A.H story line. These events can be considered non-cannon.

## Regeneration Arc saga

After the final event of the main T.A.H story, Blaze-runner leaves earth 1A through the infinity gate to finally correct his most grievous mistake, he returns to earth 42A in hopes of fixing the planet as to insure life remerges after its 200 years as a desolate wasteland. Blaze comes to learn quickly that several alien squatter camps had been set up around the world to mine the various minerals that had been created as a result of the blast. Blaze spends several weeks dismantling these mining operations and destroying the equipment to force the aliens to leave which they eventually do, but they leave a lone ship behind as they left the planet in a rather large hurry. Due to the fact Blaze had never flown a ship before he struggled to figure out what all the controls did. Luckily, he found a manual in the glove box (yes an alien spaceship has a glove box) he was able to get the ship into orbit and set out for the nearest inhabited planet

FINALE FOR REGENERATION ARK SAGA

Blaze eventually lands on an uninhabited forest planet known only as 'JTM 0112', the planet has no intelligent species but does have the odd bird tweet of in the distance. Blaze walks on foot following the co-ordinates to the location of the Chronos cache but is shocked to discover an entire Chronos compound built within a mountain, the whole base is abandoned or so it seemed, as there where many security protocols in place for Blaze specifically, with combat droids equipped with pyro-dampeners and several areas in which the temperature is beyond below zero, several traps and droids later, Blaze makes it to a large open stadium sized room and in the centre is a platform with a large glowing green orb and within the orb is the Regeneration Ark.

Blaze takes one step up to the platform and a loud voice booms throughout the compound "Self-Impload initiated, T-minus 10 minutes" then another voice followed after saying "Bet you thought I was going to say self destruct" Blaze used his speed to reach the centre and avoid the various security traps but was met face to face with a combat droid modelled after none other than Crimson, Blaze loudly exclaims "Are you joking, how am I supposed to get it now?" and proceeds to do battle with the droid who's speed is not identical to the real Crimson as that is physically impossible.

Blaze bests the droid and tosses it of the platform, his attention is now on the giant orb that floats before him and he is left with no other option than summoning his ultimate fail safe, his indestructible armour made up of the very rock that gave him his powers, Blaze uses his armoured hand to reach into the orb which destroys anything organic that enters, and removes the Regeneration Ark, the ongoing countdown had reached 2 minutes and now he had to leave the facility as soon as possible. The entire base is now pulling in on itself and blaze is finding it harder to outrun the effects due to using a lot of his energy on the armour, and as he exits the main facility door, his left arm is trapped in a metal door that is constantly being crushed more and more, Blaze knows what must be done and throws the Regeneration Ark outside of the radius of the implosion and uses his focused flame ability to cut of his arm and escape.

Blaze makes it to his ship with the Regeneration Ark and takes of just in time to see the whole compound fully implode in on itself and take surrounding area with it. Blaze returns to earth and plants the Regeneration Ark in the large crater of the very impact that destroyed the planet and activated it. Suddenly, a large burst of green energy was released from the box and spread around the planet and into the ground, it also enveloped blaze. The energy eventually faded and Blaze saw he was standing in a lush green field and could see a forest of in the distance, he knew his quest to restore nature to the planet was over but his journey was far from at an end, but before Blaze went about kickstarting a new generation of life on the planet, he had noticed that his arm was back but not as it was, it was made of a stone material that moved like it was flesh, he'd taken note a few hours later that the substance on his upper arm had diminished slightly and was replaced with normal flesh.

## Levels of Blaze-runners powers
