Let me know if it's "too serious", but I was kind of going for a vaguely serious villain.
Name: Jonathan "John" Gray
Codename: Plague Doctor / The Doctor
Age: 26.
Sex: M.
Appearance: this.
Biography: Jonathan Gray was a normal guy. Until, it turns out, he wasn't. He became very, very sick one day and almost died. He didn't... but he never got better. It turns out that, somehow, his body became modified through unknown means to carry every disease possible at once without dying. Jonathan Gray eventually learned he could control all the diseases he was afflicted with, as well as manipulate and create new ones. Using this power, he became known as Plague Doctor; or simply, the Doctor. He made himself a nice plague doctor-y costume from the good old days.
Now, he's made a name for himself as the Doctor; not one who gets you better, but one who gets you lethally sick. Unfortunately, as a backfire, he must suffer these illnesses all the time - without dying or fatigue, thankfully. He can move around and such, but he's almost under constant pain (unless he's on morphine). The Doctor likes to use his powers for his own interests, as well as to experiment on people for fun. He also grew a disdain for most people due to his endless suffering. He is never seen out of costume because all the diseases he has have rendered him permanently scarred and disfigured.
Powers: Disease Immunity, Disease Manipulation, Disease Creation, Disease Inducement.
Describe your abilities: John/The Doctor is immune to all diseases by virtue of already having them. He can manipulate said diseases and control them, as well as induce them in others and create new ones (as a consequence, though, he must suffer any new diseases he creates... except, without any death that may be involved).
Why did you turn to crime: For fun, and because he's genuinely pissed off at the world for screwing him over.
Why did you further become a supervillain: He hates the world and wants to make it his playground for disease and filth.
How do you feel about the Infinites: Heroes go die.
What's your end goal: To make everyone suffer as he does, to become rich and possibly to kill off as many disgusting heroes as possible.
You've captured the hero/heroine, what happens now: The Doctor infects them with a disease of his choosing, and then sends them off to infect as many people as possible.
Do you plan out your monologues or do they just sort of happen: The Doctor very rarely monologues.
Let's hear a sample of your evil laugh: this-ish.
Let's hear a sample of your evil roar: The above but angry sounding and more growly/coughing.
Any lines you won't cross: What's a line?
Would you prefer an archenemy, or would you rather just drift around from rogues gallery to rogues gallery: The Doctor hates everyone pretty equally, so I'd say that he can be enemies with anyone; even other villains.
VOID - Good to see you, man. Hope you're doing good. Thanks for your interest in the Infinites. Definitely not your typical superhero story.
There are many things I like about your villain, especially his really weird costume and laugh/cough. However, the thing about the Infinites is that we're all D-level superheroes / villains. Almost any "normal" supervillain you've had in the past is going to be WAY too overpowered for this group. For our heroes, we have a guy who shoots kittens out of a tech cannon he built, a girl who can fly (slow) but has no inertia to keep going, Siamese twins (one who can animate origami, and the other who can do anything as long as he's not aware of it happening, and plus he's only in it for the laughs). NPC heroes are a guy who can shoot calculators at people, a guy who can manipulate tea (but only the small amount he carries with him), etc. You get the gist.
In other words, you're going to have to tone your plague doctor down.
Can I say he has to make physical contact, and can only infect people with diseases he already has, as well as being only able to semi-manipulate the disease has has? Nix the disease creation tho...
Would that work?
