King Arthur Curry, know to the wider world as Aquaman, is a character from Justice League/Justice League Unlimited and is a minor recurring character in AniCity. He is the fierce but noble king of the undersea realm of Atlantis, and a part-time member of the Justice League, as well as a member of the Earth's Grand Council in an attempt to rebuild Atlantis' relationship with the rest of the world.

## Personality

As a ruler, Aquaman commands great respect from his people and is a capable leader. He is confident, assured, and takes no nonsense. He thinks on his feet in combat and he is not one for trifles. However, this does make a very hard man to deal with at times if you're a surface-dweller. He's a hot-headed guy that isn't necessarily prone to anger, but has enough of a temper to get him in trouble more often than not. This attitude largely comes from the love he has for his city and his people. He puts his duty to protect them and the oceans he rules over above all else. Sometimes... okay, a lot of the time, this comes at the detrement to the trouble going on on the surface, but thankfully through his years in aiding the Justice League defend the planet and wanting to repair the connections Atlantis had to the outside world before it plummeted into the sea, he's become a lot more "agreeable" and willing to step off of his throne if the situation is dire enough or if his friends desperately need his help. But he's still as fierce and fiery in a fight as ever, never holding back against a foe, especially if they disgrace his home. You best pray you stay on the good side of the king of Atlantis.

## Powers & Weapons

* Underwater Breathing

Being born as an Atlantean, Aquaman can naturally breathe underwater and can be submerged for as long as he wants. This also - naturally - makes him immune to most water-based attacks.

* Hand-to-Hand Skills
* Super Strength
* Super Speed

Aquaman is able to move at incredible speeds both on foot and in the water; the water especially, as when submerged, he can swim around the entire planet in just an afternoon.

* Superhuman Durability

Aquaman's skin is incredibly difficult to pierce, with even official human doctors describing to be "tougher than a rhino's". Its durable enough to stay strong and fit over six miles deep underwater and all bullets can do is just bounce off of him.

* Marine Telepathy

Aquaman has the ability to telepathically communicate with any marine lifeform in the ocean to aid in a particularly tough fight; anything from a giant octopus to grab multiple foes at once, a charging school of swordfish, or make a fleet of Great White sharks turn foes into chum. Actually, this ability isn't just limited to fish, as he's fully capable of communicating with practically all other animal life on the planet. This does include humans and most other humanoid-like lifeforms, but rather "control" them like sea-life, he uses it to immobilize them, either with a headache or a full-on seizure.

* Harpoon Hand

After cutting off his hand in an attempt to save his and his son's lives, Aquaman's right arm was replaced by a gauntlet with a harpoon in place of his hand. Not only does it aid him in hand-to-hand combat, it has a wire attached to it that

* Trident of Poseidon

As the King of Atlantis, Aquaman wields the mighty Trident of Poseidon, which endows him with great magical powers, including being able to control waters, unleash lighting and even summon storms.

## Notes

Sorry Aquaman haters, but this is most assuredly a version of the character that is meant to be taken seriously and showcase all the character's best attributes. Although, it does try to tone him down from the "jerk" he usually was in JL/JLU.
