Polka-Dot Man

Abner's official icon

**Abner Krill**, better known as **Polka-Dot Man**, is a mentally ill man who suffers from a number of things including delusions of grandeur and often seeks out love and compassion, even though he would never admit it.

## History

### Early History

Before the Earthquake Abner suffered from growing up in a horrible family. He was often bullied by his mother and Stepfather to the point where he ran away and never turned back. He began suffering from untreated mental illnesses. After so long he became isolated and desptate for love. In Gotham he watched how Bruce Wayne often got love from the media and began to think that was the only way but after meeting Harley and seeing how she loved Joker, he took to crime. Due to his untreated mental illnesses he was basically no threat at all. Even with alien tech, he was no real threat for folks like the Batman.

### Post Earthquake

After the Earthquake Abner was force to join the Suicide Squad. He went on a few mission but everything was relatively chilled out for him specifically. He somehow managed to not deal with death until after he left the Squad.

### Freed

After Amanda's change in heart, Abner and the others were freed of the bomb. He didn't mind or cared and decided to use the time to talk to "Larsi" and they seem to hit it off, even though she kept making fun of him. It all lasted until King Shark scared them off leading them to go to Parkrow's Thomas Memorial. There he encountered Tommy and after getting into a fight and accidentally distracting his friend, she was killed. He managed to run away for his life.

Abner blamed himself for her death for days and was a sulking mess until he met Magpie who told him it wasn't his fault. She encouraged him to become a hero and he decided to take that as his last shot. To "make it up to her" (referring to Larsi).

### Heroic path

Now that he was on the path of becoming a hero he decided to let his "friends" know. He met Doctor Destiny, who was feeling down, and convinced him to join him on becoming a hero. The doctor gladly joined after their talk.

## Kills

While Abner doesn't have any kills, he still blames himself for the Death of Larsi even after Magpie's talk.

## OOC

* Amanda's player also plays him.
	+ They were only playing him recently because she became RP blocked and was especially pissed. They used Polka-Dot man to get some positivity.
	+ They were surprised Dr. D and Magpie actually rolled with the idea of hero Polka-Dot Man.
		- Even though Magpie's player was the one to pitch the idea.

* Polka-Dot Man may become Amanda's main since no one seems to want to Role Play with Amanda or Kyd Wykkyd.
