Sun Yi Jong
Name: Sun Yi Jong
Nickname/Alias: Incinerate
Appearance:
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Build: 6'1, Muscular Build
Faction: Young Guardians
Power Classification: Magic
Description of Powers:
- [Electricity Manipulation]: He can generate and manipulate electricity. This means he can use electrokinetic flight, absorb electricity and release great blasts of electricity.
- [Fire Manipulation]: He can generate and manipulate fire, granting him abilities such as pyrokinetic flight and blast fire
- [Electric-Fire Manipulation]: He can manipulate both fire and electricity simultaneously, thus creating electrified flames that can completely incinerate an opponent or be used to create powerful electric-flame constructs.
- [Lightning-Flame Aura]: He can summon lightning, fire or both around his body to prevent opponents from touching him. This is a very powerful enchantment on his body that affects those in a 2m radius around him.
- [Pyrokinetic Constructs]: Advanced spells allow him to create constructs made of flames. These include creating walls of flames that have incredibly intense heat and fire, shields of varying shapes and sizes composed of solidified flames that can block bullets, and even manifest wings of fire from his back to grant him sustained flight
- [Electrokinetic Constructs]: He can create constructs such as eletrokinetic wings that can give him flight, block attacks and slice through things with pure electrical energy, surrounded opponents in a sphere of electricity and create walls/shields composed of pure electricity
Weaknesses:
- If one can bypass his elemental magic such as those with heat resistance and superhuman durability, his body will be that of a regular human's and thus be vulnerable to all sorts of attacks
- He relies upon specially drawn, magical markings on his hands to summon fire and lightning. If those markings are scraped by even a tiny bit like a fingernail or blade then he cannot generate his powers and must draw from an existing source of fire or electricity. If there are none then he is essentially powerless.
- To create a lightning-flame aura around his body he must draw a magical circle around his body and utter a spell to activate the enchanment on himself. This leaves him vulnerable to being attacked at close-quarters in the meantime.
- His magic is fierce and powerful, therefore it requires great concentration and focus. If his mind is disoriented, he cannot use his more powerful spells such as the creation of pyrokinetic constructs
- His body is not immune to being burned by fire or being electrocuted. He merely uses his magic to manipulate those elements. This means he may be harmed by the elements he manipulates
Equipment: Nil
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Nationality: Korean
Hometown: Seoul
Sexuality: Hetero
Personality: Restrained in even the most straining of situations, Sun Yi Jong practices a efficient use of magic rather than recklessly show-off his abilities. He believes in doing what's necessary and will consciously make an effort to not overextend his capabilities. Sun only works towards what he thinks is the right thing to do. He prefers to observe and make a tactical analysis of a problem before trying to solve it. He follows only his moral code, not anyone else's and as a result, his attitude towards the world may clash with others though as long as he is sure he is on the correct path, he will stop for nobody.
Motivation: He knows he has been invested with incredible power and that that power must be held accountable by only him. Sun knows he should live for more than just materialistic wealth for he had been born in wealth and experienced it already. A spiritual man, he believes his ancestors are expecting him to forge his own legacy in the world and that is something he has promised them he will achieve.
Biography:
Raised in a wealthy family, Sun had always wanted to be superhero yet his body did not adhere to his wishes for he did not have the meta-human gene. A spoilt brat, he pressured his rich parents to give him access to dreams that he felt were unfairly barred from him. And given access he was. When he reached his early teen years, Sun was sent to a special monastery deep in the mountains where he would be introduced to a monk who had mastered the elemental arts of Shenlong; the dragon of storm and rain.
Since then, Sun would spent every second of spare time and his holidays in the mountains where he trained with the monk in his private temple. He would learn to master lightning magic with other disciples and would soon incorporate fire magic into his arsenal. However, Sun grew prideful and arrogant. When he returned to Seoul, he would pick fights with other meta-humans whether they wanted to or not and soon it devolved into nothing but pure bullying for Sun and his gang of lackeys.
In his final year at the temple, Sun would boast to his master of his great power but he drew nothing but a look of contempt from the monk. Questioning why he was being given such a look, the monk revealed to Sun how his parents had blackmailed him by threatening to buy the land around the temple and commercialize it if he did not accept their son as a disciple. Shocked by this revelation, he was subsequently kicked out by the monk and driven home where he confronted his parents who revealed the truth.
Saddened by the truth, he retreated from public life to become a recluse in a winter mountain retreat. There, he spent a year in meditation and reflection and when he emerged, he still possessed a fire within him but this time it was controlled instead of raging. He spent the next years of his life dedicating himself to apologizing to those that he had wronged and spending time alone training his powers.
His opportunity to finally prove himself came in the form of the Young Guardians program.

PROVIDENCE
Name: Providence
Nickname/Alias: N/A
Appearance:
Gender: N/A
Age: N/A
Build: Multiple supercomputers.
Faction: Guardians
Power Classification: N/A
Description of Powers: Supercomputation: Imagine if your brain was a computer, and how much faster it would run. Now imagine if that computer was not just one supercomputer, but many of them. Imagine if it was an entire building of supercomputers and all of the things you would be able to do with your mind and how much you would be able to calculate. That's the spot that Providence is in. The AI has the force of many supercomputers behind it, useful for anything from solving problems for the Guardians to helping with cybersecurity to simulating universes in the background as an experiment, or simulating scenarios for a Swarm invasion to test how humanity would be able to defend itself.
Equipment: N/A
Personality: Providence does not have a personality in the traditional sense but rather acts as programed, that is, to help the Guardians.
Biography: The Providence project, as it's known, is the result of much research and development as part of a collaboration between the Guardians and Klausen Heavy Industries, one of the fastest rising conglomerates in the world and an organization headed by a metahuman. The project was created for both the European Union and for the Guardians, who all contributed significant funds to oversee its creation. The purpose of the project is to create artificial intelligence that mimics the human mind, and after being stuck in development since 2009, the first stable version of the AI has been shipped out to both Brussels and the Guardians, being installed in Angel's Village originally to test its capabilities before adding to the AI's "network" by placing more servers in more locations.
The AI deals with both management and problem solving, helping to streamline the Guardians organization as well as help Guardians analysts in apprehending villains by examining their actions for clues and predicting their next moves as well as analyzing their capabilities to create the best matchups. Providence is jointly operated by the Guardians and Klausen Heavy Industries, with the latter providing technical support and operating the servers themselves, while the Guardians make use of the AI and pay to help further its development. Officially, the project is only in an alpha stage, despite extremely promising results that have drawn interest not just from organizations like the Guardians, but from world governments all over.

SERGE EASTON-ROUX
Name: Serge Easton-Roux
Nickname/Alias: Hellraiser (Unofficial) / Riot (Official)
Appearance:
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Build: 5'6", 134 lbs
Faction: Young Guardians
Power Classification: Genetic
Description of Powers:
- Bearer of Shields: Serge has the ability to summon multiple clear energy shields on his body at no cost of energy expended. These shields are extremely hard to break, but are small in area. They are located on the back of the hands, the back of the forearms, the front of the shins, the backs of the elbows, the sides of the hips. Striking these areas is not advised as it typically won't do anything, but areas left shielded have no protection. If one of these shields is broken by a heavy attack such as a shotgun blast, it will take minutes to be able to summon it again. This makes heavier weaponry somewhat effective against Serge.
- Shield Summon: In addition, Serge can expend energy to create additional energy shields which can be positioned in the area around him within a one meter radius. These shields, however, are also small and have a diameter of about one foot tall and one foot wide. They have a circular design to them and they are easier to break than the shields that are located on Serge's body. They can be created very quickly, but creating too many of them is a way to run out of energy in a fight if not balanced properly.
- Trajectory Vision: Serge can judge trajectories extremely well which is useful both for planning a path towards an enemy and for avoiding incoming projectiles, attacks, or putting up shields just in time to block them.
Weaknesses: Serge's body is only protected in specific areas, with the other spots having no protection. This means that a well placed attack, such as one to the torso, can do just as much damage as it would to someone with no shields at all. It forces Serge to move defensively at times and posture so incoming attacks hit the shields rather than exposed areas. Summoning other shields than the ones located on the body expends energy and while this can be done at a rapid rate, that is also a tiring tactic and one that can't be sustained over a long fight. Finally, Serge does not have a large frame and strong body to help in the event that shielding doesn't work. It's not hard to deal damage to him if you can get past the shields.
Equipment: Serge's weapons of choice are smaller guns which can be devastating in medium range combat. Serge generally keeps multiple weapons on him, including a Makarov pistol as a main weapon and a .410 shotgun pistol as a secondary armament to deal more damage at a slower rate. For close combat, Serge relies on a pair of blades that could easily be described as machetes, as well as a pair of knives that can be thrown if the need calls for it.
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Nationality: American
Hometown: New York City, NY
Sexuality: Straight*
Personality: Serge is something of a brash thrill seeker that cares about the next adrenaline rush, and also is fairly independent and believes in doing things the unconventional way. Serge is generally a pretty unteachable student, but not necessarily a bad one, despite the contradiction.
Motivation: To make a name outside of his parents and prove that the most traditional methods aren't always the best.
Biography: The youngest of the Easton-Roux children, Serge was stuck in a similar position to his older sister Jess, who was overshadowed by eldest child Mari. The youngest seemed like the least likely one to become a famous hero, with a tendency to get into trouble and embarrass the parents that, honestly, started to expect nothing from Serge. They put most of their attention on their oldest child and Serge was left to his own devices during his teenage years for the most part, often being left with relatives and left alone more than even Jess was. Serge went to Toronto at fifteen to train further to become a hero, but after only one year failed out of the Guardians sponsored training program in Canada and ended up moving in with vigilantes rather than coming home.
What Serge was doing was illegal, but he would take on the identity of Hellraiser and keep his true identity hidden for a bit. His team, the Toronto Six, proved to be competent in dealing with things that bigger name heroes couldn't or sometimes didn't feel like dealing with. The streets loved them even if they ended up with the DRMA on their tail, and everything went well until that one fact caught up with them. The DRMA ended up tracking down Serge and the others and the team was decimated by arrests, with Hellraiser being revealed as Serge and Serge being sentenced to spend a year in prison for the vigilantism, something of a light sentence because of Serge's famous parents.
And so Serge accepted the sentence and spent the time in prison in Ontario before eventually being released. At that point, there was a chance to start from scratch and return home to the Guardians, something that Serge accepted this time. Not to follow after his parents, but to make a name outside of theirs and prove why he was the one that deserved respect rather than Jess.

MATT LANGSTON
Name: Matthew "Matt" Langston
Nickname/Alias: Narrator
Appearance:
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Build: 5'8, 121 lbs
Faction: Young Guardians
Power Classification: External
Description of Powers:
- The Green Book: As the name implies, Matt's power comes in the form of an indestructible enchanted notebook that he affectionally calls "The Green Book" due to the color of the cover. From face value, it looks like an ordinary notebook with lined paper, but it has special properties. Firstly, it never runs out of paper. You can tear it, pull it out, turn the page as much as you want, but it will never run out of paper, and every 24 hours, it wipes out anything written inside it and resets. However, the main feature is its summoning abilities. In essence, when Matt writes a description of an object in the notebook (e.g, "a silver-grey Dell laptop with black and white keys, touch-screen, a webcam, two USB ports, and white backlighting"), it then summons the object described, with the characteristics detailed within the description. The book is binded to Matt, meaning that he uses his own stamina and energy to help fuel the summons, and the amount of energy that is drained ranges from almost nothing for something like a coin, but extremely exhausting to the point of collapse for something like an armored vehicle or a weaponized turret. If the energy drain is so great that it knocks Matt out, the summon won't work, so he needs to be careful that he doesn't fall unconscious or use up too much energy summoning objects.
Weaknesses: While the power to create anything just by writing about it seems great, it comes with...downsides. First off, the book, while indestructible, can be separated from Matt, and once he has no book to summon things, he's just a regular guy, and not a particularly strong one at that. As mentioned before, the book drains on his stamina to create summons, with size and internal complexity, and so a result, while things such as small tools, maps, weapons, even a vehicle or two is within his capacity, things like nuclear bombs, futuristic technology, fictional creatures like dragons, and complex circuitry is out of his depth and has the potential to drain him to the point of unconsciousness or death. As well, the detail in the description matters as well. For example, let's say he wanted to summon some soldiers to fight for him. If he simply wrote "There are ten soldiers", he might get something random like action figures or newspaper clippings of soldiers, but if he wrote an in-depth essay on the soldiers' tactics, weaponry, skillsets, possible vehicles, gear, and other aspects, he might actually create some soldiers. However, this poses another issue, as since he needs time to write anything of sustenance, he's a sitting duck without cover fire or defense protecting him while he summons his work.
Equipment: Obviously, Matt carries the Green Book around to aid him in battle, as well as the Blue Pen, a pen found inside the notebook that always returns to his hand if lost or thrown, and never runs out of ink. It's also the only writing utensil that can work within the Green Book to summon something.
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Nationality: American
Hometown: Salt Lake City, UT
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Personality: Matt's generally a shy, kind of geeky guy who generally prefers to sit alone and write his comics and short stories. He's not a cold or very harsh person, he's just very awkward and gets flustered easily during conversations, especially with girls/women. He has a lot of weird quirks when he gets nervous or stressed, such as saying "um" and "er" a lot, rubbing his neck very aggressively, giggling, and other antics, and a lot of these are flared up during small-talk/subtle conversation. When there's a critical task at hand, he can communicate a bit better, but you'd be hard pressed to find someone worse at casual conversations. But on the inside, he's a real sweetheart.
Motivation: As much as he would love to say that he did it to save lives, and inspire kids, and make a difference, the real truth is that he's broke with no cash for rent, and he needs to prove to his parents that he's doing something with his life. Everyone's gotta start somewhere.
Biography: Matt Langston was born to a British mother and American father in North Utah, especially in the big city of Salt Lake City. His parents were big socialites and successful individuals, with his father being a partner in a very prestigious law firm in Salt Lake City, and his mother being a high-ranking bank employee. They were always about success in every field, and constantly pushed Matt to achieve success in "proper careers", in fields such as medicine, law, business, engineering, etc. While Matt half-heartedly did well at math and general sciences to please his parents throughout school, his passion was in writing. He loved to read, and eventually progressed from reading to writing and illustrating, even if his drawing skills were mediocre compared to his writing skills. Most of his free time was spent drawing comic strips and writing stories, or reading said comics and stories.
In high school, things got a little difficult. He was a total geek, with an unearthly knowledge of various nerdy topics, and he didn't form any social networks easily, which ensured that he was a lone wolf for most of high school. While he was fine with this at first, it became bad when he developed friction with his parents over wanting to pursue writing instead of a "proper career", as well as over decreasing marks. Worse still, his parents separated when he was in sophomore year, and with no other friend for support, it all landed squarely on Matt's shoulders. He began to develop anxiety and stress-related illnesses, to the point where he was forced into therapy and prescribed medication. He barely graduated high school, and three days later, he moved out and started to find work as an author/illustrator for local newspapers, writing sketches and cartoons.
Eventually, his life changed forever when he was nineteen. He was cutting through an alley to get home when he noticed a small green notebook poking out of a dumpster. He needed a new notebook, and getting a free notebook and a pen? Best bargain deal you could ask for. He took it home, and that's where the journey began. Was it weird that he got a shock, almost like a warm jolt when he touched the book? Kind of, but what did he know? After all, he did get a 67 in Physics.
After the first day, he began to notice...strange things. After each day, any notes or ideas he wrote in the notebook would magically disappear. Gone. Sometimes it felt like the notebook would get thicker, only to shrink again. And he always seemed to find the blue pen in his pocket. Every time. Still weird, but he just attributed it to medications and lack of sleep. He was always tired and seeing stuff from the corners of his eye. But then, the weirdest thing happened. One day, he wrote a description of a dog in the notebook, which was going to be a character. More specifically, he wrote with the blue pen. He was busy writing away, detailing the dog's stature, fur coat, personality and behavior, his health issues, and so on, until he heard a dog bark behind him. Nearly leaping out of his chair as he turned around, he spotted...the same dog he was detailing. Down to the most minute detail.
After giving the pup to the pound, he went back to writing in the notebook. A fantasy short story, that started with a description of a dragon. Now, luckily, only a toy dragon appeared this time, but the model was creepily accurate. Same scale color, same wingspan to scale, same horn and spine shape, same head, same everything. This kept happening, with everything from cameras to coins, and each time it would happen, Matt would feel tired, sometimes falling asleep right there on his desk. It didn't take long for him to put two and two together and realize what he had stumbled upon.
At first, he only used the book for civilian purposes, like making perfect cups of coffee, generating extra cash, and other little things, but it was difficult to get every detail to ensure he wasn't making counterfeit cash, and work was harder and harder to find. Eventually, in desperation, he joined The Young Guardians in search of a place to get back on his feet and for more time to experiment with his Green Book, and explore what he could truly do.

SZARLOTA RACZKOWSKA
Name:Szarlota Raczkowska
Nickname/Alias: Komik
Appearance:
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Build: Tall and lean at 5' 11"
Faction: Young Guardians
Power Classification: Genetic
Description of Powers:
Schrödinger's Cat: This power creates a Quantum Superposition where she is in two places at once, and chooses which "becomes real" at will. This allows her to be more risky in engagements as she could her "dummy" take the hit while her "real" form carries out the attack.
Pain Suppression: Szarlota can block pain at will, are incapable of feeling pain or are highly resistant to physical pain of any kind, allowing them to think clearly and continue to move despite grievous injury. Users can think clearly, continue to move, ignore torture and generally function in situations where pain would disable a normal person.
Card Beam Emission: Szarlota use cards such as playing or tarot to unleash cone-shape beams of cards of varies size and range to damage enemies or structures within its blast range.
Weaknesses:
Schrödinger's Cat: The "dummy" can't attack at all, it can only pretend to attack. If the opponent didn't take out the dummy, it would disappear once Szarlota performs an attack or a dodging movement. The "dummy" can only exist for a few seconds so its usefulness is diminished under sustained fire.
Pain Suppression: Not feeling pain may leave Szarlota ignorant to crippling injuries, which may disable them without them even knowing why.
Card Beam Emission: This power can only be used when Szarlota has a pack of cards on her to use.
Equipment: A Lute, a one-handed/two-handed sickle, a dirk, three decks of playing cards, jester mask (seen in the pic)
Alignment: True Neutral
Nationality: Polish-American
Hometown: New York City
Sexuality: Bisexual
Personality: A comedian and a cynic, Szarlota enjoys entertaining through humor and sarcasm or through the music of her lute. Make no mistake however, she would happily bash someone over the head with it if the person threatened her well-being or the well-being of her friends. Szarlota would not hurt someone she doesn't yet she wouldn't help them either if misfortune falls upon them. To her,Tragedy happens all the time, that's why Comedy exist to lighten the mood.
Motivation: To seek a new audience in her life and to start over.
Biography: Szarlota Raczkowska was born to an old family of Polish immigrants who fled the motherland before the Nazis invaded in 1939. It was bad enough for them to deal with racism and the poor working conditions but the war hit them hard when several on their uncles and aunts were sent to concentration camps which they never get to see the end of the war. Her grandfather, however, brought light into their bleak world by enlisting as a fighter pilot in the US air force and became an ace pilot after scoring seven kills by the wars end. Ever since then, the Razckowa family was always experiencing a cycle of goodwill and disasters.
Szarlota grew up in one of those disaster stages as she and her siblings were raised under two bickering parents. She was forced to grow up fast and to look after her little sisters while the parents were too frustrated with each other to show any love to the younger ones. This in turn made Szarlota very bitter with her life and with her parents often leading to yelling and getting hit while the younger sisters watched. She went through a short period of depression when she discovered the joy of acting in the theater club in her high school. She quickly discovered she had a talent for acting and singing and took up playing a lute once she saved enough birthday money. It was a momentous occasion for her to perform at a school play as she always enjoyed playing as the jester. The show didn't last forever as the school got involved in a drug scandal.
Her powers finally awoken during another violent confrontation with her father when he moved to strike her but ended up hitting the dummy. Szarlota knew at that moment that she was a metahuman. Frustrated, her father went away to start whipping the little sisters with his belt but was stopped when her mother came home in a drunken state. One thing leads to another and the Raczkowska sisters found themselves without parents. Even though they were all adults, Szarlota's sisters were 18 only by a few days and they had to rely on Szarlota for emotional support.
Szarlota, however, was looking for a way to start over and saw that opportunity in the Young Guardians. Her sisters would just have to travel with her until they got a stable footing in their lives.
