Nice GA. You and , Im going to us his Alias because that's what he will be using, Felth might bump into each other. Hell, I just thought of a way to get my guy into the Hero business, Have him be locking up the Gilded Gator one night when a group of people come to rob the place. He'll try and fight them off, with out powers because he doesn't want to chance drawing attention to himself, and Shatter could come in and help him out. Seeing another person with powers using them to help could inspire him to put on a suit and start trying to do the same.

Balance by realistic science then ^^ Comics don't really work that way

@shadow That'd be a neat way to start it off perhaps. Maybe Shatter starts giving him lessons in how to focus and control his abilities.

Yea, perhaps He tries to stop a crime himself, after a few basic practices, but fails and they get away.....or he tries and only makes things worse, then Shatter comes in, fixes things and helps him out. Point is he is young and, though he has had these powers for years now, has rarely used them, and never on anything big (cryokenisis to keep his soda cool as he drinks, TK to grab a pen that or book that was just out of reach, that sort of thing.)

Character creator: KennyC Real name: Anzo Alias: None Hero Identity: None Appearance: Older man in late 50's with weathered skin with obvious signs of age. Usually dressed in a simple black shirt and a pair of blue jeans. Has long hair and a beard. Age: 1500+ years Skin Tone: White/Caucasian Height: 5'11" Weight: 240 pounds Muscle type: StockyEye color: Blue, flinty eyes. Hair color: Graying blonde hair. Distinctive Features: German runic tattoo over his chest reading as Family: All long dead. Relationship status: Single Personality: Silent and stoic. The ages have weathered him and small talk holds little of his interest. Often uses his ancient Germanic tongue to feign ignorance of the language someone is trying to converse with him in. Stony-faced, he rarely shows emotion beyond his eyes. Biography: Anzo no longer remembers his past. His oldest clear memories date from the very end of the Roman Empire in the fifth century AD. Before that is only a muddled, confusing mess and as time goes on, more and more of his oldest memories fade. As best as he can gather and be bothered to remember is that he hails from a region that came to be know as Saxony to the Romans and the other Germanic tribes. Beyond that, he knows nothing but he was apparently a warrior. Though the circumstances escape him, he knows he owes his long life to the ancient sword he carries by his side, Sverda. So named for the inlay on the blade itself, which resembles an Ulfberht in both look and functionality. It is a magical weapon that steals the souls of those it slays, granting their energies to both the sword and the wielder. He has spent decades studying the blade, but it confounds him to this day. Its very nature was inexpiable as a steel sword of that type did not even become common until the 10th century, when he had it a full 5 centuries beforehand. Beyond that, it is a complete mystery to him. He is currently a drifter. He remembers a time when he did all he could to shape and change events for the good of mankind; but that was when he was young and foolish. Without hindsight and even with an intellect granted him with his many years -its not easy to tell who needs to be killed and who should be saved. Which side to choose and which to not involve themselves in. Though he did many great things, he also made many mistakes which has ground upon him and made him eventually give up trying to change the world. Though the ages weigh upon him and he finds little to be hopefully about the modern world, he does have an ember of justice left in him. He still fights to help people he meets in his travels and though he finds it an effort to wake up each day, he still goes on. Powers/Possessions/Skills: - Unstoppable: Once sufficient momentum is built up (a speed of 50 kph or above being necessary) - any and all motion by Anzo is unstoppable by any know force or barrier. He is as effectively invincible.
- Sverda: An ancient blade that has been by Anzo's side for as long as he can remember. A magical weapon that feeds upon the souls of those it kills to enhance both itself and Anzo. The rate in which it burns through this soul energy and thereby how much it powers up Anzo can be controlled by him, so soul energy can be hoarded for when it is needed. It is also unbreakable and it cutting ability increased in relation to how much soul energy is being used.
- Magical Sustenance: Provided enough soul energy is present in Sverda; Anzo requires little to no food, water or air.
- Immortality: Anzo has noticed no signs of aging for several centuries, leading him to conclude he is effectively immortal even without Sverda drained of energy.
- Super Speed: As a baseline, his speed in both movement and reaction time is at the very edge of human ability. Sverda can enhance this to super human levels, the limit only set by the amount of soul energy he channels.
- Enhanced Fortitude: As a baseline, rifle rounds and low level explosions have difficulty piercing his skin or damaging his internal structures. This resistance is exponentially influenced by the soul energy present within Sverda - allowing him the ability to be invincible should he acquire sufficient soul energy (nigh hundreds of regular souls being used up for only a few minutes of action).
- Old: Empires, kingdoms and nations have risen and fallen in his lifetime. Though he has forgotten much; the skills, knowledge and wisdom of several lifetimes follows him.
- Soul Tap: After a person is killed by Sverda and their soul consumed, their memories can be 'felt' by Anzo. Its is only a sensory, gut feeling sort of thing though, so specifics can not be gleamed. However, the more the memories are 'felt' the more the soul is consumed and eventually they both fade away.
- Magical Infusion: The power that Sverda harvests is changing him. The more powerful enemies he defeats and drains of their soul energy, the stronger he personally becomes.

Okay..I'm curious, guessing from the runes some sort of magic/diety based character.

Did somebody hang themselves from the branches of the World Tree to obtain ancient knowledge of the Runes?
