So is this an alternate history, that eventually got back on track with real history?

[Talchyon]

Name: Shawn Glitzky
Codename: Glitch
Age: early 20's
Sex: male
Appearance: Slightly taller than average and gangly.

Out of costume: Glitch looks like this. Any resemblance to Shaggy is purely coincidental.
In costume: (Can't get a picture). Tan pants with big pockets, white longer shirt, blue shirt with a yellow lightning bolt on it, and a simple "less-than-a-buck" blue mask that covers his eyes only but not the rest of his face.

Bio: Shawn was always this way. From birth, he was making things malfunction without trying. Strollers. Pacifiers. Milk. His parents' cars. The tv. The closet door. All useless at random times. Some think it was caused by a genetic mutation. Some think it had something to do with living too close to Nebraska farms and having a bad reaction to fertilizers. Some think an evil super-genius used Shawn as an experiment, only to give him back to his parents and wipe their memories because he couldn't stand having Shawn's interrupt the daily workings of his lab. Shawn himself just thinks it was destiny.

So it was, that as Shawn Glitzky grew up, school wasn't his thing. Causing things to not work right caused problems and made it so that no teacher could ever get through to him. Somehow, he managed to pick up some Spanish, being kind of natural at it, and surprising himself in the process.

Then came the fateful day when Shawn was abducted by high-tech aliens who were intending on using people as guinea pigs for their own nefarious goals. Transporting him up to their cloaked warship orbiting Earth, the hulking aliens began to work on Shawn - and nothing would work. Needles were useless to pierce his skin. Drugs that were given to him had as much effect as sugar water. Straps wouldn't lock in. Weapons jammed and backfired when trying to threaten him. And to make things more interesting, the ship's propulsion, engines, navigation and life support also began failing. The pilots tried to save their ship, but their controls wouldn't respond. The ship plummeted from the sky (guess gravity or physics also wasn't functioning then), burning up on the way down. The alien warship crashed, killing all the hostiles, but miraculously Shawn survived. (The ground had malfunctioned, making that patch under him "squish-proof.")

The Infinites took notice. They were impressed that Shawn had single-handedly defeated an entire hostile alien ship without really doing anything. They couldn't publicize this, however, because they didn't want to alarm the public or give the military access to the alien technology that could still be salvaged. Shawn was invited to apply for the Infinites, but when he showed up for the interview, he caused all of the important electronic communications that alerted the Infinites of impeding crises to be useless - not to mention disrupting the accounting software so the heroes couldn't collect their weekly paychecks. Annoyed, the Infinites canceled Shawn's application on the spot, and demoted him to the Minnesota Infinites, pending a recruitment interview and physical.

Shawn, unable to take a taxi, catch a flight or hitch a ride, annoyed the Infinites once more by pestering them for super-powered transportation to Minnesota until someone caved. Finally a frustrated Wraith teleported Shawn to right outside the Minnesota Infinites' door.

Powers:
Function Impairment - See description here: http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Function_Impairment. The only difference with Glitch is that it almost always happens (except when it messes up with the plot), and he can't control it. So to summarize: doesn't matter if it's electronic (a computer), wooden (a door), cloth (shoelaces), or metal (a fireman's pole) - Glitch's ability makes it not work the way that it's supposed to. Basically lasts as long as it's funny.

Stupidity Inducement - See description here: http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Stupidity_Inducement. This one is something Glitch has to will, in order to work. The effects of stupidity and the levels that IQ can drop are TBD, but always temporary. When Glitch stops willing it, the person "bungee-rebounds" to a heightened intellect for a few moments (a short post or two), before returning to normal.



(Things in parentheses are OOC. The rest of this is IC. A form for your character to answer.)

Describe your abilities: Dude. I can make things suck. Like not work right. We're talking anything - from your friend's Chevy that he lets you drive that suddenly goes all idle, to the glass you pour water into that now sprung a leak the size of the bottom in it. And, I can make people dumb. So that super-genius-billionaire who dresses up in robot armor? He better watch out, 'cause I'm gonna "take him down."

Why did you become a superhero: It's hard to believe that I didn't do good in school, what with my word processor going haywire the night before my assignments were due, to my pencils unable to write when taking tests. I guess school wasn't for me. Other jobs don't seem to be my thing, either. I'm not the ideal job candidate because I make the McDonald's fry oil not bubble or the lawnmower decides to reattach grass that someone else already cut. Being a superhero seemed like the best thing for me.

What are your goals for the future: I'm going to show that I am the greatest superhero that ever lived, and ever will live. I will "take people down."

(Why is this character with the Minnesota Infinites. In other words, why do they kind of suck?): Glitch would be great if he could control his ability to impair functions. But since it's on without him being able to control it, it really messes up with anyone trying to send electronic communications and the Infinites' database.

How would you describe your talents?: Awesome! Better than every other superhero combined! And then more.

(What about your character's talents make them a D-lister?) Glitch has very few talents, since almost anything he tries malfunctions. He has picked up a lot of Spanish, however, and can speak Spanish decently in a pinch.

What are your strengths?: Dude! Everything about me is a strength!
What are your weaknesses?: People don't understand me. I think they're jealous. They wish they could be me. I don't know why the comic book people haven't come knocking on my door yet...

(Any other flaws? Maladjusted personality? Social issues? Unmarketable aspects?): No, I think this is good for now.

Why should you if given the opportunity be allowed to advance in the Infinites?: They need me. I can take down any super bad guy that comes along. They may not know it yet, but they will.

Why does the press hate or ignore you?: I don't take pictures well. For whatever reason, interviews don't go well either. Cameras seem to jam and laptops freeze and show the black screen of death. I think that it's just a matter of time, however.

[Sphinxatopd]

Name: Antonio Dubóst
Codename: Captain Andorra
Age: 29
Sex: Male
Appearance: A Latino man with a bushy mustache and greasy black hair. His eyes are black, but not like unnaturally black. His face has a few slight wrinkles. He is about 6'0 tall.
Bio: During the third world war, Spain and France worked together to try and creat a super solider. To make sure the other didn't steal it, they put in in the only middle ground: Andorra. They eventually abandoned the project, and decide to build better nukes instead. Recently, some archeologist found the original base and decided to secretly create a super solider for themselves. They put a lot of peek through a test until they found a man who perfectly embodied the rights and morals of Andorra. Them stuck him through the process and o it came a man who was slightly taller, slightly stronger, and slightly more fanatical about Andorra. At first the country loved it, until they started getting bored. So off Antonio went to America, to be a national symbol for Andorra in one of the world's superpowers. Unfortunately, no normal american has any idea where Andorra is. So he began h I s quest to try and educate the masses of his homelands existence.
Powers: Slightly better than the normal human. Like a really good boxer, really good decathlelte, and some other sports thrown in there.

---

(Things in parentheses are OOC. The rest of this is IC. A form for your character to answer.)

Describe your abilities: I am better than the average human like Americans like to say. Just a little, so don't feel bad. Also, I have shield of epicness.
( http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Peak_Human_Condition)
Why did you become a superhero: Well to protect the values of Andorra, my home country. What? What do you mean you don't know where it is? Here, let me show you on the map.
What are your goals for the future: Well, since America is such a great country, I was told to try an buddy up with the officials. Unfortunately, everyone takes me for a joke. Either that or they say where is Andorra? North Americans... And my people told me to stay here until I finish the job. I have a feeling that it has something to do about o it that rant I gave about high taxes and Andorran values. But I would like every America to know about Andorra. And a comic book or action figure or even a movie wouldn't be bad to help that.
(Why is this character with the Minnesota Infinites. In other words, why do they kind of suck?):
How would you describe your talents?:.Like I said before, I am slightly better than the average human. But only slightly. And my shield isn't that great for throwing or bashing with because it is made out of wood. And it doesn't come back like I imagined. And I had a race against some other enhanced human, one from the Midwest infinites, and he won handily.
(What about your character's talents make them a D-lister?)
What are your strengths?: Zeal for patriotic values and morals in general.
What are your weaknesses?: Too much zeal. And not good enough to be on a popular team.
(Any other flaws? Maladjusted personality? Social issues? Unmarketable aspects?): Just that no one knows where he's from and he always ranting about morals.
Why should you if given the opportunity be allowed to advance in the Infinites?: Because I am next to an embodiment of virtue! And, my costume wouldn't look bad as a comic book.
(Why does the press hate or ignore you?): Because they have no idea where Andorra is. Or who this guy is.

[Thecreamof]

((Hoping this isn't too late!))

Name: Lousia T. (Tagan) Dulaney
Codename: Aerogal ((Open to suggestions. I'll admit I'm terrible @ naming characters. ;_;))
Age: 23
Sex: Female
Appearance: She stands roughly 5 ft. 6 in. & weights roughly 137 lbs. Has a pretty well done farmer's tan. Hair is pretty short, well-kept, & obv. dyed red. Her eyes are brown. Her supersuit is obv. homemade from the cheapest stuff legally available & is supposed to act as a partial-pressure suit. It's orange w/ red & yellow details & tons of reflectors.

Every backstory I've thought of so far is super lame &/or generic. I'll cross that bridge if we come to it.

Powers: Can hover roughly arms-length above the ground w/ no physical effort but must be more-or-less calm, @ peace, &/or apathetic. Can glide & ride strong enough air currents (like, relatively weak storm level strong). Can also fly but 1. it's extremely tiring 2. the fastest she can go is roughly 6 mph 3. she can only fly by 'swimming' through the air. If she stops 'swimming' she'll sink back down to roughly arms-length above the ground @ a safe rate.
She can also pull herself along the ground when hovering, which she finds a bit easier than walking. Can also suppress the heck out of her emotions (not a power nor can that poss. be the healthiest thing to do w/ one's emotions).
She HATES using her actual superpowers because she thinks they make her look super dumb & that people just want to see someone do something slightly unusual. She does NOT want to be a dog-&-pony show unless she knows/thinks it's for a good cause.

Describe your abilities: I can hover, glide, ride air currents. All of which make me look like a dumb donkey. Yay.
Why did you become a superhero? I really want to make a diff. in the world. But if you have superpowers of any sort, the only way you can really legally do that is to become a superhero. I figured my chances of surviving long enough to reach my 50s would be best if I tried to join my local superhero team,the Minnesota Infinites.
What are your goals for the future? Realistically? I just want to get a lot of connections, resources, & not have to worry a ton about having enough $ to meet my basic needs. Ideally? Somehow manage to make it fudging huge, never have to worry about $ ever again, & make crime an extreme rarity instead of an ever-present occurrence.
((Why is this character with the Minnesota Infinites. In other words, why do they kind of suck? Well her powers are pretty darn niche in use. She has a few relatively minor personal issues. But otherwise she's a good, hardworking lass.))
How would you describe your talents? They have the amazing range of niche to almost completely useless in terms of use in non-lethal combat! Good thing I can actually be useful w/out them! *kicks the air w/ gusto*
What about your character's talents make them a D-Lister? My superpowers are niche @ best & nigh useless @ worst, my personal connections are nil, & my resources are few. So D-Lister it is.
What are your strengths? Algebra, pretty street smart, decent fighting abilities, determination/will power, good team player, pragmatic fighter, can parkore really good, pretty good survival skills, & excellent navigational skills.
What are your weaknesses? Tranquil State has it's limitations & drawbacks. Hovering can only be done in (a) certain emotional state(s). I still have to worry about birds running into her & other fun air stuff. Slightly book dumb in everything but algebra & a workaholic. ... I've been told that I can be a bit too emotional for my own good.
((Any other flaws? Maladjusted personality? Social issues? Unmarketable aspects? When she's not busy suppressing the heck out of her emotions, she's almost too emotional. She's basically constantly either The Spock or The McCoy & doesn't seem to have much of an in-between. Also slightly paranoid & pretty claustrophobic. She's fairly self conscious.))
Why should you, if given the opportunity, be allowed to advance in the Infinites? I'm a super hard worker & I'm sure if I had more resources @ my disposal, I'd do even more good than I do now. Plus I wouldn't be surprised if my marketability is actually decent. I hear people love superheroes who do their best to actually do good even when their superpowers have little to no non-lethal combat uses.
((Why does the press hate or ignore you? She's really new to the scene & tries to cultivate more in-person relationships w/ people. She REALLY doesn't like being on media of any sort unless she knows/thinks it's for a good cause.))

[Olthar]

Name: Doesn't have one
Codename: Face Smasher
Age: Unknown, can't count
Sex: Female
Appearance: You know the Minotaur of Greek myth? Like that with tits.

Bio: Face Smasher never knew her parents as she was abandoned at birth. She was left in front of a nunnery, and they reluctantly raised her. At least for a while. They tried to be kind and uphold God's love of everyone, but she was simply too different, too wierd. They never even gave her a proper name and mostly just called her various cruel names they passed off as being affectionate. Face Smasher wasn't buying it, though. She may be dummer than a sack of moldy potatoes, but she has a keenly insightful mind.

When Face Smasher was old enough to take care of herself, she left the nunnery in secret. She's terrible at stealth, but the nuns pretended not to see her leave. She spent many years living on her own in the wild, hunting for survival. It was enjoyable for a time, but she's not so simple-minded that it could keep her satisfied forever. Thus, she attempted to join the Infinites and become a great hero. They sent her to Minnesota. She's excited about this amazing opportunity.

Powers: Super strength, super durability, super senses (sight, smell), super goring horns, super stupidity

Why did you become a superhero: To smash the bad guys!
What are your goals for the future: Become a great hero and smash the bad guys!

(What about your character's talents make them a D-lister?) I believe that was covered with the intelligence? Though her powers are kind of boring, too.
What are your strengths?: Strength.
What are your weaknesses?: Finding clothes that fit.
(Any other flaws? Maladjusted personality? Social issues? Unmarketable aspects?): She's also quite remarkably ugly, and that's apparently important because of her female parts.
Why should you if given the opportunity be allowed to advance in the Infinites?: Me good at smashing the bad guys and would be even gooder at smashing the badder guys.
(Why does the press hate or ignore you?): That should be self evident.

[The Land of the Golden Blobfish]

Name: Matthew Smith
Codename: Stump. What do you mean? I guess I...stumped you there. Eh? Hu- OH GOD!!
Age: Uhh..u-ugh that one definitely hurt. I’m t-twenty two.
Sex: Three times a day. Just kidding, I’m a dude!
Appearance:

Bio: You see, I was raised deep within this confined laboratory, never allowed to see the world outside my metal prison. I spent year after year, enduring painful tests hoping that one day I would be free. And that was when the fire nation attacked! Oh god, you should see your face, it’s priceless! Nah mate, all that stuff I said was bogus. I was raised right here in Minnesota just chilling, you know, enjoying life. What, you want more? Trust me, I’m not that interesting.
Powers: Well, whenever I tell a (bad) joke or pun, a huge metal anvil usually falls from the sky and crashes right here on the ground. Usually in front of me but eh, I’ve managed to aim it before.

---

(Things in parentheses are OOC. The rest of this is IC. A form for your character to answer.)

Describe your abilities: Well, I am a master fighter. Once, I was trapped in a cavern all by myself with over a 100 carnivorous guinea pigs. The battle was hard fought but I eventually arose from the ashes of my fallen prey and claimed victory over their forgotten souls. Oh, you’re serious. Well, I can cook two minute ramen in a minute and fifty nine seconds, does that count?
Why did you become a superhero: I don’t know, it seemed like a lot of fun. That and the fact that I got fired from every other job I’ve had. I mean, I wasn’t necessarily bad but I guess they didn’t like it when I took a little longer of a break. How much? Oh, only like the entire shift.
What are your goals for the future: Well, being able to pay my rent doesn’t seem too hard so I’ll go with that.
(Why is this character with the Minnesota Infinites. In other words, why do they kind of suck?): Other than the anvils, they technically don’t have any other superpowers. I mean, Matthew could potentially use metal manipulation later in the RP but something as strong as that won’t appear for a long long time. Not until the characters themselves get stronger and such. But yeah, that’s all he has at the moment
How would you describe your talents?: Other than my anvil summoning joked and amazing prepackaged cooking skills, I'd say that's everything about me.
(What about your character's talents make them a D-lister?) The anvils aren't necessarily accurate so this leaves him very vulnerable. Plus he has to be able to talk to summon them. However, if an anvil managed to hit someone, well, let's just it's going to hurt like hell.
What are your strengths?: I'm a pretty sick driver. Got the gold cup in every course on Mario Kart. Oh yeah dude, there was this one time I drank like a dozen 5 hour energy drinks and I was tasting colors bro oh my god it was such a trip.
What are your weaknesses?: I'm pretty allergic to dieing.
(Any other flaws? Maladjusted personality? Social issues? Unmarketable aspects?): He's a pretty laid back guy to the point where he is often severely underestimated due to his lazy attitude. However Matthew is stronger than he let's off yet has never shown this due to his somewhat fatalistic view, even when his life is threatened.
Why should you if given the opportunity be allowed to advance in the Infinites?: Because like, imagine all the sick parties we'd hold bro.
(Why does the press hate or ignore you?): Matthew has never been seen using his powers to fight crime or any of the sort so he's never had the spotlight shone on him. And even if he did, the media would think he was boring. After all, he's not a flying hero with a flashy costume and line of action figures.
