## Overview

Yeah, it's him, the one who started everything. James is the first "real" superhero we've ever made, constantly fluxing in and out of looking back fondly, and being hated for his dated style, but now he'll finally be immortalized forever.

He has grey skin, with his classic line eyes and signature scar in between them. He wears a white labcoat, with his cyan "You're a Goner!" T-shirt, jeans, and black dress shoes, as well as his metallic arm, of course.

## Biography

<tabber>

James grew up in a very financially stable and supportive home, allowing him to blossom into the intelligent, quick witted genius he developed into during his middle to high school years, skipping grades and topping his classes with ease.

He and his best friend Bruce eventually graduated High school, and got into college at the ripe age of 20, majoring in General, and Nuclear Physics. While there, he met Amy, a stunning Latina woman, both of whom instantly got a crush on eachother, and began dating after a little while.

After they both graduated, they moved in together, getting married about a year into their relationship, where James found a Job at Maghen Industries. Working hard, he slowly made his way up the ranks, eventually becoming the Head Researcher and Physicist of his district.

James was commended, and his life was going swell, until 1994, when Bruce was killed by a robotic assassin. Bruce's death destroyed James, causing him to slack a bit during work, but with the help of his wife, and other things seeming to shine the bright side's light his way, he picked himself up, and set on.

Then one night, a few years later, after a considerably awful wedding He and Amy attended, James found himself at the scene of a car crash, now a Widower. While Bruce's death hurt him emotionally, Amy's death was the final straw, the true breaking point.

James went from a man, to an unfeeling machine, only coming in to work as an escape.

James sat at home one night, drunk with emptyness, staring deadeyed at his television, when he got an idea after watching a documentary about the mysterious effects gravity can have on the physical plane around it, when pulled apart and stretched together. He went mad with this idea, this plan, blueprinting, getting the funding for, and experimenting with his latest breakthrough, dubbed "*The Gate Former*".

He developed this creation for 16 years, dumping every last dollar, and every ounce of energy he had, until finally, it was finished.

Finally, he would see her again.

He had a group observe his first test, under the guise of "resource collection" interests, with his Boss, Hank, joining as an unexpected surprise. The test began, and the gateway started to form, but it fizzled out.

James exploded with rage, slamming his fists on the control panel, and completely resetting it, much to Hank's disappointment. He ordered James to stop, but he didn't, and the portal began to spark up once again. James laughed slowly, with overwhelming pride as it came back much stronger.

The dense glass of their observation room began to crack, as the winds inside both rooms began to feel the effects of gravity, like an earthquake. Hank reached forward to shut the program down, but was punched dead in the face by James, screaming at him to leave.

Soon, the room began to glow with the electricity of the large tesla coils powering the machine, ripping a hole in time and space, when all of the sudden, it exploded.

Time froze.

It looked at him.

He flew.

James reached out to the entity halfway outside the portal, as it reached back, touching his hand. James grabbed its wrist, begging to be taken with it, but the creature retracted back from whence it came. Unfortunately for James, the portal was very dangerous for his fragile, human body, and while the being disappeared inside of it with no trouble, James' front was shredded by its nature, as it phased out from the room.

James fell to his knees in the middle of 16 years worth of twisted and smoldering work, gurgling and heaving from his injuries. All of the other members were strewn about, seemingly torn apart by the lightning of the machine.

After shambling through the hallways, and encountering some terrified guards, James fell unconscious.

James woke up in an institution, everyone completely unaware of his newfound powers, which he quickly grew acquainted with, using it to aid in the escape of 4 other prisoners, along with himself.

They lived together in an abandoned missile silo within the snowy countryside, until James began to go mad, as the Cosmos itself spoke to him. He set out to right all of his wrongs, hopefully in order to clear his mind of the never-ending guilt, and recruited his friends to assist him in killing his old boss, Hank Hen.

The mission was a success, with James taking down the previously considered unkillable assassin, the Learner-3000, sent by LEGION to kill him, and decimating Hank by decorating his office with his brains. The victory was short lived though, as they were surrounded by the police as soon as they exited the building.

James thought there would be no problem, overconfident in his power, as LEGION tested a new weapon on him. A beam of plasma, something he couldn't just toss away, shredded his arm, completely frying it.

James looked at his arm, once again passing out to be imprisoned, as his friends were taken to even tougher prisons, and he was taken to a laboratory, ready for experimentation.

James awoke after months in captivity to the sound of a familiar voice, that of his wife. James' mental state had pushed past the point of no return now, as hallucinations of his Wife, still in the beautiful dress she wore that night, beckoned him to free himself.

So he did.

James tore out of his specialized prison, and clawed his way to freedom, where he removed his arm, again fainting in reaction to feeling none of it. In his trance, he came into contact with the Cosmos once again, defiant and tired of being pushed, he rose from his slumber, killing anyone around him, and crafting himself a new arm of steel and scraps.

He made his way to the evidence hall of where his clothes were stored, reclaiming everything that belonged to him, before returning to his old house, where his wife have him a vision of what he needed to do in order to be with her, forever.

Any images, trickery, or sometimes even mentions of his lost love will shatter his composure, making him angry, or despondent.

Any matches to his power will *terrify* him, since he believes he is the strongest thing to ever live.

He is not invincible, so if you are quiet, quick, or just relentless enough to get your hands on him, he is at your mercy.

Plasma, Electricity, and Light are not physical objects, and he therefore can not interfere with them.

He does not know any sort of physical combat.
