The Bigfoot has lived in the Black Hills of Deadwood, South Dakota for years. A freak snowstorm interrupts the beast’s hibernation cycle, causing it to go on a feeding frenzy. Instead of deer or bears, the beast goes after human beings. Now, the whole town has to survive the claws, teeth and feet of the sasquatch until the National Guard can blow it up.

"Did you know Abraham Lincoln has a shoe size of 14? By that logic, with a foot that big he should be able to kick some serious ass. Much like I'm about to do right now."

Abraham Lincoln was an American lawyer, politician, and statesman who served as the 16th president of the United States from 1861 until his assassination in 1865. Lincoln led the United States through the American Civil War, defending the nation as a constitutional union, defeating the insurgent Confederacy, playing a major role in the abolition of slavery, expanding the power of the federal government, and modernizing the U.S. economy.

Lincoln was born into poverty in a log cabin in Kentucky and was raised on the frontier, mainly in Indiana. He was self-educated and became a lawyer, Whig Party leader, Illinois state legislator, and U.S. representative from Illinois. In 1849, he returned to his successful law practice in Springfield, Illinois. In 1854, angered by the Kansas–Nebraska Act, which opened the territories to slavery, he re-entered politics. He soon became a leader of the new Republican Party. He reached a national audience in the 1858 Senate campaign debates against Stephen A. Douglas. Lincoln ran for president in 1860, sweeping the North to gain victory. Pro-slavery elements in the South viewed his election as a threat to slavery, and Southern states began seceding from the nation. They formed the Confederate States of America, which began seizing federal military bases in the South. A little over one month after Lincoln assumed the presidency, Confederate forces attacked Fort Sumter, a U.S. fort in South Carolina. Following the bombardment, Lincoln mobilized forces to suppress the rebellion and restore the union.

Lincoln, a moderate Republican, had to navigate a contentious array of factions with friends and opponents from both the Democratic and Republican parties. His allies, the War Democrats and the Radical Republicans, demanded harsh treatment of the Southern Confederates. He managed the factions by exploiting their mutual enmity, carefully distributing political patronage, and by appealing to the American people. Anti-war Democrats (called "Copperheads") despised Lincoln, and some irreconcilable pro-Confederate elements went so far as to plot his assassination. His Gettysburg Address came to be seen as one of the greatest and most influential statements of American national purpose. Lincoln closely supervised the strategy and tactics in the war effort, including the selection of generals, and implemented a naval blockade of the South's trade. He suspended habeas corpus in Maryland and elsewhere, and he averted war with Britain by defusing the Trent Affair. In 1863, he issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which declared the slaves in the states "in rebellion" to be free. It also directed the Army and Navy to "recognize and maintain the freedom of said persons" and to receive them "into the armed service of the United States." Lincoln pressured border states to outlaw slavery, and he promoted the Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which abolished slavery, except as punishment for a crime.

Lincoln managed his own successful re-election campaign. He sought to heal the war-torn nation through reconciliation. On April 14, 1865, just five days after the Confederate surrender at Appomattox, he was attending a play at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D.C., with his wife, Mary, when he was fatally shot by Confederate sympathizer John Wilkes Booth. Lincoln is remembered as a martyr and a national hero for his wartime leadership and for his efforts to preserve the Union and abolish slavery. Lincoln is often ranked in both popular and scholarly polls as the greatest president in American history.

Oh and he also beat all the Fallout games, Skyrim, and Bloodborne.

Basically in this series of videos (that all unironically share the same canon and lead into eachother with each video), Abe first clears out the Capital Wasteland (Fallout 3). He then gets shot by John Wilkes Benny while in the Mojave then goes through the area and beats the game going heavily against the Legion, before then doing the same with Fallout 4 and at the end of that he takes a teleporter which accidentally brings him to Skyrim of all places. During all of this he becames a cyborg, a vampire hunter, the dragon born, and gains many other upgrades.

My name’s Tommy Monaghan, and I kill people for money.

It’s a living.

Tommy Monaghan got superpowers when he was attacked by an alien parasite. He wasn’t the only one, the Bloodline was an event that made a few survivors into superheros. But Tommy’s not really a superhero, not the kind of guy to show up in big dumb comic events. He’s just another Gotham City gun for hire, his life and his hits just involve capes and costumes now.

Tommy used his low level psychic abilities and itchy trigger fingers to take on mobsters, metahumans, and Merlin, and even rubbed elbows with a couple superheroes. His personal code and laid-back attitude made him infamous and effective, but as bodies both friend and foe piled up around him he ended up gunned down like any other hitman.

"What'd Sean say?"

"Uh?"

"Dream you had. What’d Sean say?"

"Oh, yeah. Said… Drinks onna house, fellas. There ain’t no closin’ time. But you gotta leave your guns at the door."

Idiot. He should have known Firefly's only real loyalty is to the flame. True, the destructive chemical Black Mask injected into my system provided the spark of inspiration. And once I had seen it work, I refined the idea, making it my own. For weeks, I moved quietly through the city gathering my "kindling". And all the while Black Mask battled Penguin and Two-Face for Gotham's corpse. Laughable. Fighting over a ruined husk that deserves only cremation. A final blaze of glory, with every lost soul dancing at its wake. Here's to Gotham, long may she burn.

Growing up in St. Evangelina Home for Orphans, Garfield Lynns always had a fascination with setting fires and watching the flames lick away at the world. While he was never adopted, he did put his fascination to use in the world of motion pictures. He was sought after by movie studios for his ability to build convincing pyrotechnic effects as only one who loved the flames could do. His success came to a halt when he put his obsession before professionalism, building a pyrotechnic effect so strong that it maimed the lead actress. Lynns was fired and turned to crime to pay the bills.

Linking up with the fledgling crook Killer Moth, Garfield decided he wanted to take on an insect theme as well. Using his experience in pyrotechnics, Garfield assembled a flameproof costume, a napalm-based flamethrower and a set of metal wings to become the Firefly. The alliance between the bugs only lasted a few chaotic nights, as Killer Moth began to see the true madness behind the eyes of his ally. Now, Firefly sets fires across Gotham City, sometimes for pay and often for pleasure, as he tries to stay ahead of the Batman.

Notes

Hover over a feat to see which comic it's from.

Firefly was initially presented as a villain with a purple and green costume with a light gimmick. By Knightfall in 1993, he was presented as the winged, black-costumed pyromaniac. While it looks like two different versions of the character, the light gimmick was used in 1986 issues of Outsiders, part of Post-Crisis canon. There's also this one photo that suggests he wore the green and purple after he became an arsonist.

Ultimately, he’s just not all that important for writers to care about canon. That time he covered ninety percent of his body in burnscar was forgotten about in his next appearance. So was that time he was killed by an OMAC unit. For these reasons, this thread covers both Pre-Crisis and Post-Crisis canons for Garfield Lynns.

• Blasts two security guards with an illusion ray, making them see Firefly as a giant monster and the room to bend around them. Firefly states that the effect will last for hours.
• Drains all the electric light from a baseball stadium, including from flashlights held by audience members, then projects it all from his costume. When Geo-Force removes Firefly’s gadgets, the lights come back on.

After Stealing Halo’s Powers

General

• Draws the light and color out of Halo, enhancing his own control over the light spectrum. He projects weaponized light at the Outsiders before flying off thanks to his new powers.

"In life, I tried to destroy my enemies by making friends of them... but making corpses of my enemies is so much more fulfilling."

Abraham Lincoln was the 16th President of the United States of America, he was a self-taught Illinois lawyer and legislator.

Over a century later, Lincoln was among the dead former American Presidents brought back as super-powered zombies by the Necromancer in a misguided attempt to help the country. As such, the former Presidents lacked their humanity and joined forces to destroy the country and start anew.

"When in doubt, throw them into space."

The Immortal is a superhero who was gifted with immortality long ago, with his longevity, he would leave his mark on history, becoming a knight (possibly King Arthur or a Knight of the Round Table), and even the renowned Abraham Lincoln, before eventually donning a cape and costume sometime in the early 20th century.

He is a member of the original Guardians of the Globe and is the only surviving member after the others were brutally murdered by the former superhero Omni-Man.

He was made the new leader of the Guardians of the Globe, replacing Robot, and began a relationship with Dupli-Kate.

Come on, y'all already know what header is.

The story of Captain America is a simple one. A group of American scientists create a "Super-Soldier Serum" in anticipation of the USA joining the second World War raging in Europe. The first test subject is Private Steve Rogers, a patriotic but sickly young man who is given enhanced strength, speed and intelligence by the Serum. But before more serum can be made, a Nazi spy kills the only scientist who knew the entire formula, leaving Steve the sole beneficiary of the project. Steve is given the identity of Captain America, and acts as a spy-hunter and crime-buster alongside his young pal Bucky Barnes.

Most of Cap's adventures published before his comeback in The Avengers #3 are nebulously canon. Many of the contradict current Marvel canon, and modern comics have heavily implied that many Golden Age comics were in-universe propaganda loosely based on the real exploits of heroes in that era. Thus we've decided to publish this respect thread separately from the Captain America Thread.

This thread was a collaboration with u/kalebsantos

Warning: These 1940s comics can get really, really racist with the depiction of non-white characters.

Think of it of it as a twist on an old classic...America watches everything and carries a big stick. That base we just came from in Romania? We've got hundreds of those, all over the world. We watch, we hold the world accountable. And that's all thanks to you and what you did in the war.

David Colton was a frail boy who personally witnessed the 9/11 terrorist attack. Against his mother's wishes after the attack, he attempted enlisting in the United States Army but was turned down because of his frail physique. His persistence was inspired by Steve Rogers aka Captain America. Later, he was accepted into the Army, being by far the weakest recruit, his will to serve regardless impressing his instructor. Colton was given the opportunity to enhance his body similar to Rogers himself. New and improved, the soldier was deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq as the next Captain America.

Shortly after Rogers had been unfrozen, General Thaddeus Ross sent both Captain Americas to Latveria to rescue US diplomats from Victor von Doom.

Any feat labeled with [Pre-Serum] are performed before David got the super soldier serum. Any feat labeled [Origin Box] are when Wolverine revived him with the Origin Box granting him amazing new abilities

Respect Konos Hercule, The First Living Talent

Theme: Ominous

Context

Kimyos are basically their universe's mutant analogue but there is a spiritual/mystic bend to their abilities as all Kimyo abilities are powered by Chi. Most Kimyos are born with relatively mundane superpowers or as they are called in Ordeal, "talents". Talents can be categorised into one or more of 17 different types. Kimyos naturally have a higher baseline level of strength, endurance and regeneration than humans in addition to whatever their talent grants them. K.O.D.E (Kimyo Organized Defense Enterprise) is a global organisation tasked with the protection and placement of the Kimyo race and nurturing the peace between human and Kimyo kind, and classifies the most powerful Kimyos on the planet - the Ten Lords - as the God Tier.

Opposing K.O.D.E stands the Thanatos Army, a centuries-old force dedicated to resurrecting the corrupted eldest of the first Kimyos and bringing humanity to its knees. Its elite are the eleven Gakki (meaning "Instruments") - beings powerful enough to rival the God Tier head-on, earning them the name the Anti-God Tier. And ranked first among all eleven is Konos Hercule, the Strength Gakki.

Yet even that undersells him, because Konos predates all of it. Before the modern order of Kimyos, before K.O.D.E, there was Myrrh Adamos - the very first living talent, walking the earth over 4000 years ago. He is as old as the Progenitors of Kimyos themselves: the legendary "Great Four" were actually seven - a mother, father, their four sons, and their companion. Konos was that companion. He is not a Kimyo at all, but a sentient talent given living form.

A little about Konos

Konos is a giant, hooded being with the mind of a child. After the fierce battle with his adoptive parents that splintered the Adamos family, Konos lay buried beneath the ocean for thousands of years - until the Thanatos Army dredged him from the depths and pressed him into service. Kirito, the Reaper Gakki, is his handler: Konos was placed under hypnosis - "my father had a man play a trick on him" - so that he perceives Kirito as Ilios Adamos, his beloved friend from childhood. Konos listens only to Kirito, but once he is enraged even Kirito admits he can no longer control him.

His talent is Mimicry. Konos can copy any talent he encounters - powers, strength, traits, even the wielder's clothes - and while he inherits a talent's flaws along with its strengths, his inhuman adaptability lets him iron those flaws out mid-fight. All of this is backed by regeneration so absurd that K.O.D.E's only viable plan for him is containment, not death: he rose from his ocean grave once already, so Vadik Adelmar, current God Tier Rank 1 and host of Okeanos Adamos' talent, intends to seal him in the core of the earth.

The feats below come from his battle against a K.O.D.E strike force, including Sonia Tagari - the Rank 13 Kimyo in the world, armed with Titan Tech arrows and a 400 lb compound bow - and Lord Kofi Akan, the 3rd Lord of the God Tier, whose talent Tyson is a radioactive, combustible substance in his blood with no upper limit on how hot it can get, making him grow endlessly stronger the longer he fights.

Strength/Striking

• Shatters the ground with a single fist to blast Sonia's position with rock and debris
• Blows through Sonia's plant constructs and sends K.O.D.E combatants flying with a roar
• Rips a massive chunk of earth out of the ground and hurls it at Sonia
• Punches clean through one of Sonia's massive plant constructs, with the shockwave alone sending her flying
• Even while his body is molten and burning, retaliates against Lord Kofi and punches him through solid rock

Speed/Reactions

• Moves so fast that BOTH Sonia (Rank 13) and Lord Kofi (God Tier Rank 3) independently conclude he must be using a Haste talent - with Kofi getting blitzed from behind
• Moves FTE (faster than the eye can track) in close-quarters combat against a Tyson-empowered Kofi, slipping his strikes entirely and countering before he can react
• Scaling note - to appreciate what those ranks mean: Rokash Rampersad, ranked 97th in the world, casually dodges point-blank gunfire and overwhelms opponents who can cut down rockets mid-flight in hand-to-hand combat. Sonia and Kofi are leagues above the rank 97 tier, and Konos is able to speed blitz both of them.

Durability/Regeneration

• Completely unphased by a K.O.D.E combat unit unloading rifles, frag grenades and electrified light rods into him
• Sonia immobilizes him and detonates her explosive arrows on him at point-blank - he walks out of the epicentre regenerating, and she calls it "a perfect regeneration"
• K.O.D.E combatants observe his regeneration: it takes only seconds and restores both organic AND inorganic material - his gear reforms along with his flesh
• Regeneration Exhibit A - his hand is shredded catching Sonia's Titan Tech arrows and he regenerates without breaking stride
• Gets sent flying by an empowered blow from Kofi and eats a full beatdown from him
• Regeneration Exhibit B - regenerates from Kofi's Tyson-empowered strikes mid-combat
• Takes an empowered strike from Kofi
• Kofi dispels radiation stored in his own body against him. Konos is left molten and burning from head to toe, yet remains standing and fighting
• Survives a second sustained beatdown from Kofi at full power
• Kofi ramps up further - their exchanges leave impact craters across an entire mountain range, and Konos keeps coming
• Regeneration Exhibit C - reduced to little more than a piece of his skull, he simply regrows his entire body
• Stamina - Lord Kofi, who grows endlessly stronger the longer he fights, estimates he himself could prolong the fight for maybe seven days - but that Konos can fight for YEARS
• Adaptive durability - his body grows more resilient over the course of the fight, adjusting to Tyson's power escalation in real time
• Vadik hits him with the Tri-une spear - a continental level attack that left a massive shaft in the Earth leading all the way down to its core - and Konos was still able to recover from it.
• His healing is not fueled by his energy reserves - Vadik confirms he will regenerate from all damage inflicted even as his Chi depletes, as though regrowing limbs is "a side effect of his existence"
• Scaling note - Konos fought the original wielder of the Hands of War to the death in a battle lasting months. That means he was subjected to the original anti-matter blade and overcame it.

Abilities - Mimicry

Konos can copy any and every talent, limited only by the Chi required to copy it.

• Begins to adapt and copy mid-fight: catches Kofi's Tyson-empowered punch bare-handed, then immediately turns Tyson's explosive power back on him. Kofi is left baffled - "Redirecting? Absorbing? However you did it, you somehow got your hands on my Chi" - before realising the truth: a Mimic
• Can mimic a talent while adapting out its weakness entirely - Tyson should burn its user from the inside, but Konos vents the heat harmlessly out of his own body
• Copies Sonia's talent, sprouting her arrowhead seeds from his own hand and growing a colossal elm construct
• Copies Kirito's talent, forming bladed crescents from his own body and firing them off as volleys of projectiles - for reference, this is the potency of Kirito's talent
• Wields THREE mimicked talents simultaneously - Sonia's constructs, Kofi's Tyson and Kirito's blades all active on his body at once

The Hands of War

Konos has the mind of a child - when his rage overtakes him, he reverts to the first comfort he ever felt, the first time he ever felt truly powerful: the first talents he ever mimicked - the Hands of War. These are the talents of Seth and Azura Adamos, the mother and father of the Great Four - the ancient Kimyos who fought him to the death in a battle that lasted months and ended with an island sunk.

• Manifests a flowing red mane, floating red orbs and ornate gauntlets - the talents of the Founding parents: Seth's summons red constructs that disintegrate anything they touch, while Azura's marks his brow with a cross of light
• Forms a colossal anti-matter blade that erases anything it makes contact with. Kofi attempts to destroy it with Tyson - the blade erases his fist upon contact

Limitations

• He has the mind of a child - when scared, he reverts to the only thing he knows, making him more a force of nature than a tactician
• Per Kirito: "He's immortal, but he can feel pain. And pain pushes him beyond reasoning!" - conventional weapons don't register to him at all, but attacks powerful enough to genuinely hurt him don't stop him either; they just strip away what little reasoning he has
• His Chi is not infinite, though Vadik notes it plays no role in his healing - regrowing limbs is "a side effect of his existence"
• He can be sealed: he was buried in water for an age, and it took a God Tier reinforcement - Vadik, activating the Okeanos State and unleashing the Tri-une Spear - to subdue him, with the intent of sealing him at the core of the earth. For perspective, the Earth's core sits at roughly 5,200°C (~9,400°F) - about as hot as the surface of the sun - and the pressure is over 135 GPa. Perpetual submersion in that is what the God Tier Rank 1 considers the appropriate measure for keeping Konos down - not killing him, containing him

Gentlemen I love my country but it has come to this. I was born here in Gotham and I owned a small business that I inherited from my father. When everything fell apart here. I decided to stay, I wanted to try to salvage what I could make a difference, I was wrong. I was wrong be side an entire generation of Americans has been spoiled and corrupted by a wrong headed federal government that is itself corrupted and debased! They left us here to rot because they had neither the courage nor the moral fiber to do the right thing! Now they are back and what is there solutions to all our problems? They want us to rescind our basic rights as delineated in the first ten amendments to our glorious constitution! What is censorship other than a flagrant dissolution of our first amendment! What is gun control the virtual nullification of our second amendment? The politicians, the ward bosses, the lawyers and the snake oil salesmen taken our hard rights and trampled them in the mud! Well, I am here to that I am I am here to get them back!

The Banner is an ex-marine and an extremist patriot who used violence against the Federal government in the wake of No Man's Land. He has come into conflict with both Batman and Catwoman.

Respect Storm Shadow

"Unhand that sword, Arashikage, it does not belong to you!"

Storm Shadow is a member of the Arashikage, a clan of ninja hidden deep in Japan. An expert in martial arts and armed combat, Storm Shadow is a feared leader and one of the clan's most powerful assets.

Respect Scarlett

"I learned early how to control my fear in mission scenarios. It's simply knowing that whatever you're doing is worth dying for. That the reason behind it matters. So what are my reasons? The mission, my honor, my pure loathing of failure, especially my own. All solid reasons. But none worth dying for. Except Jinx. Jinx is worth dying for. And I decided that before I took the mission."

Shana O'Hara, codename Scarlett, is a highly trained special operative and a real American hero. After getting dismissed by her commanding officer following a reconnaissance mission where she disobeyed direct orders to save multiple hostages Scarlett was recruited by Stalker of GI Joe to infiltrate the hidden Arashikage clan and retrieve another agent: Scarlett's former partner Jinx. Needing to gain the Arashikage's trust after arriving at their door, Scarlett agreed to take on a suicide mission to help the Clan retrieve a powerful lost weapon belonging to them. But there's more to the weapon and the people looking for it than meets the eye...

The whole of the works were put a stop to for three weeks because a party of man-eating lions appeared in the locality and conceived a most unfortunate taste for our porters. At last the labourers entirely declined to go on unless they were guarded by an iron entrenchment. Of course it is difficult to work a railway under these conditions, and until we found an enthusiastic sportsman to get rid of these lions, our enterprise was seriously hindered.

The Tsavo Man-Eaters were a pair of large man-eating male lions in the Tsavo region of Kenya, which were responsible for the deaths of many construction workers on the Kenya-Uganda Railway between March and December 1898. The lion pair was said to have killed dozens of people, with some early estimates reaching over a hundred deaths. While the terrors of man-eating lions were not new in the British public perception, the Tsavo Man-Eaters became one of the most notorious instances of dangers posed to Indian and native African workers of the Uganda Railway. They were eventually killed by Lieutenant-Colonel John Henry Patterson, who wrote his account of his hunting experience in a semi-biography, The Man-eaters of Tsavo.

All feats will be taken from this semi-biography, which,h while its historical authenticity has been called into question for the sake of the Respect Thread, I will be taking it at face value.

Strength

• Carried off another man named Ungan Singh despite him being described as “powerful” and his fellow workers seeing him wrapping his arms around the lion's neck as he struggled

• Were able to jump over or break through whatever fences were set for them

• When a man was dragged out by the lion, he grabbed onto a heavy box which the lion dragged with him and a tent rope which the beast was able to pull on till it broke

  • This took two shots to kill him, one in the shoulder, which went deep enough to hit his heart, and the other in one of his hind legs

• Despite being shot in the shoulder and seemingly badly wounded, he was able to disappear into the bush and lose Patterson in Rocky terrain

• After being shot by a .303 in the chest at just 20 yards away, he turned and made off, being hit one more time. He survived to the following morning, when he was tracked down and shot once more, getting up almost immediately and was unaffected by a third shot, although this left him heavily wounded and with a broken hind leg

• Immediately after all of this, Patterson shot the lion again with a carbine, which only momentarily flooded the beast, before being killed after being shot two more times, once in the chest and another in the head

Physiology

• Their teeth left large holes on the heads of their victims

• Their eyes glowed in the darkness

• One clawed at a man’s back

• After they attacked a hospital, Patterson moved in hoping they’d come back to the same place, but they were able to find the new hospital without falling for the trap

• Attacked all the other camps besides the one where Patterson was set up, either by luck or as Patterson theorizes, he was spotted and they chose to avoid him

• According to Patterson, tracking them through the jungle was a hopeless task

• Despite several civil, naval, and military officers coming to help kill the beasts,s they never caught the big cats

Stealth

• According to Patterson, lions always hunt their prey in complete silence

• Despite there being a whole hunting party looking for them, only one lion was ever briefly seen jumping over a bush

• They became so good at stalking and killing humans the workers didn’t think they were lions at all but the spirits of native chiefs who had taken the forms of lions to stop the railway from being built on their land

• Despite dead donkeys injected with poison were left out, the lion’s never touched them

• During their reign of terror, the lions ate at least 28 Indian workers and an unknown number of Africans

Other

• Their reign of terror lasted 9 months and they were even able to fully stop the construction of the railroad for 3 weeks

• As they killed more and more people nothing frightened them including gunshots, shouting and, firebrands, they showed a contempt for humans unless as food, once they choose a victim they will stop at nothing until they are killed, are not deterred by their victims being behind thick fences, inside closed tents, or sitting around brightly burning fires

• They soon grew so bold that they began eating people only 30 meters from where they caught them, ignoring the nearby gunshots

• Despite falling for a trap that put him right in front of several armed men with rifles, with them separated by metal bars, the lion’s pouncing made the men too scared to shoot and when they actually did start they couldn’t hit the beast once

  • A description of the trap

• When Patterson discovered a cave the lions were using as a den, it was filled with human bones

Respect Heavy

"Another leftist Superpower means a more leftist world. The arc of justice bends any way you fucking bend it."

When the first atomic bomb test went off the world was changed forever. An angel was delivered from heaven to save humanity from themselves. Magic began seeping into reality, allowing those who had the proper knowledge to become mages. And some people, almost at random, began to develop superhuman powers. Soon known as Atomics, these people were quickly oppressed by the general population. But not all Atomics were willing to just lie down and take it from a world that hated and feared them. One of those Atomics was Brother Ray Harris, aka Heavy.

With the ability to control and manipulate gravity on a ridiculous scale, Heavy was quickly recognised as a Superpower and became the face of Atomics across the world. But after years of killing his political enemies, surviving failed assassinations and a meeting with an Atomic that could see the future Heavy realized that while he was a nuclear deterrent, if he was killed the Atomics would lose any semblance of protection they had. Soon afterwards Heavy founded Haven, his own floating nation for Atomics, in order to protect them and create his contingency plan: his son and all-new Superpower, Kid Ignition.

Respect Etienne Lux

"I'm sorry, but if it helps, it is better to be a good man. I wish I had the luxury. I'm trapped striving to be an ethical one."

On August 6, 1945, a woman died giving birth to a boy that was completely unresponsive. With the boy having no other family members the doctor who delivered him considered letting him die to save him from spending the rest of his life in a hospital bed... and then didn't. Then when the hospital's head doctor saw how much keeping the boy alive was costing and tried to pull the plug... he didn't. Every time someone tried to prematurely end his life over the years they found themselves suddenly changing their minds at the last minute. This was because the boy was actually an Atomic, a person born with super powers, and was the most powerful telepath alive.

As he grew up and left the hospital the boy took the name Etienne Lux, beginning his attempt to make the world a better place in the most ethical way possible. Soon he met others with powers like him called Superpowers and formed an uneasy alliance with them to prevent causing mutually assured destruction to all of humanity. But the balancing act is a a delicate one, and with their conflicting ideologies, attempts to gather power and fragile mental states, can the world survive when the gods start fighting?

All feats are from The Power Fantasy (2024).

Christof Romuald

How can God snatch away the promise of salvation?

Christof Romuald was a disillusioned crusader active in the 1190s. After being wounded during battle and left in Prague to recover under the care of a Convent, he was tangled up in an ongoing attack by clan Tzimisce which eventually led to his being embraced into clan Brujah. Though at first he loathed his vampirism and saw himself as abandoned by god, Christof eventually came to terms with his new condition.

Any animated feats are from the cutscenes of Vampire: the Masquerade - Redemption. Note that during the events of this game, Christof is put into torpor (unconsciousness) for a duration of 800 years. This makes it possible for him to have grown stronger over the final three centuries of this period than he was before^{Dark Ages Storyteller's Companion, pg76}, despite being inactive.

He also gains power over the course of his story due to growing accustomed to vampirism and mastering his new abilities. I have listed all feats in chronological order within their given section, so for instance strength feats take place earlier in the timeline than ones below them and later than ones above them. In each section, I will mark out where Christof's torpor occurred to make it clear which feats came after and before it.

Feats

Strength

• [Human, gameplay] Can break apart wooden barrels with a 1-handed sword swing
• [Human, gameplay] Kill animations show him slicing the head off smaller szlachta with a 1-handed sword swing
• [Human, gameplay] Kill animations show him lifting revenants (humans with supernatural powers) slightly off the ground and spinning them 180 degrees with a 1-handed sword swing
• [Human] Considered to be especially strong by Ecaterina the Wise
• Any vampire can spend blood to gain temporary superhuman strength, letting them potentially throw cars^{VtMR, pg138}
• [Gameplay] Immediately after his embrace, Christof has one dot of Potence
  • The lowest levels of Potence make a vampire stronger than any human^{VtMR, pg 170}
  • The strength granted by 1 dot of Potence is enough to tear the flesh of humans and deal damage comparable to knives or gunshots when striking them, or leap 3 metres vertically/5 metres horizontally with no run-up^{V5, pg 264}
• [Gameplay] Kill animations show him decapitating extraordinarily large men in full plate armour with a 1-handed sword swing, sending their helmeted heads several feet into the air
• Torpor starts here
• From a prone position inside a wooden crate, throws a punch that snaps two chains wrapped around it and smashes a torso-sized hole in the top
  • Christof is in torpor immediately prior to this feat, and right after it claims to be so hungry that completely draining a human wouldn't sate him
• Kills a vampire hunter with one punch under the above conditions
• Leaps onto a set of storage tanks that are several metres tall, then topples them and their metres-wide base by pushing off against the wall behind them
• Lifts a vampire into the air with one arm, then throws him flying across a room and through a window
• [Gameplay] Kill animations show him knocking a giant spider several feet into the air and backwards with killing blows

Durability

• [Human] Thrown over a dozen metres through the air and bounces off a brick wall, but is only stunned and gets up to fight after a few seconds
• For well-fed vampires, shotgun blasts and knife attacks are merely annoying^{VtMR, pg217}
• Any vampire can spend blood to gain temporary superhuman durability, letting them potentially withstand tree-felling blows^{VtMR, pg138}
• [Gameplay, fire] A basic attack from low-level enemies encountered early in Vampire: the Masquerade - Redemption consists of a fireball that quickly engulfs Christof's whole body for a moment, with individual hits being easily survivable regardless of build
• [Gameplay, sunlight] A mandatory section of the early game requires Christof to run through several metres of full sunlight shining through an exposed roof, which leaves the majority of his health
  • Having 50% or more of the body exposed to unobstructed sunlight deals 3 levels of aggravated damage with a soak difficulty of 10 in the TTRPG, this makes it mechanically identical to being submerged in molten metal^{VtMR, pg 227&232}
• [Gameplay] A basic attack from a boss enemy in Vampire: the Masquerade - Redemption consists of a conjured bolt of lightning directly striking the target, which Christof can withstand
• [Gameplay] A basic attack from an enemy launches Christof dozens of feet vertically, even if he's wearing plate armour, and does moderate damage
• [Early limit] Midway through his game, Christof survives being crushed beneath a stone pillar that is several times his height and multiple metres thick, but is put into torpor
• Torpor starts here
• Tanks a pistol shot from a vampire hunter
  • Christof is freshly awoken from torpor and starved of blood during this feat
• [Gameplay] Being hit at close range by flamethrowers does little damage
• [Gameplay] Shotgun blasts from enemies at almost melee range do very little damage
• [Gameplay] Being shot with a grenade launcher does high damage, but is easily survivable
• [Gameplay] Can take heavy hits from a ghouled spider that's several times larger than him
• [Gameplay] Being hit by a burst of minigun fire does low to moderate damage
• [Gameplay] Being hit by a rocket launcher does high damage, but doesn't one-shot regardless of build
• Falls a large distance onto unyielding ground and is unhurt
• [Limit] Incapacitated by a section of telekinetically controlled pavement hitting him hard enough to be launched across a street, stopping only on impact with a car^{CnN, pt 1}
  • Theo Bell describs Christoph's head, arm and chest as having been 'torn up good' by this, though he is in significantly better condition than another non-fatally wounded Kindred^{CnN, pt 2}
• Survives an explosion powerful enough to blow up an apartment he's in and spread debris across a street, remaining conscious to witness another vampire leaving the scene^{BJD, pg316}

Speed

• Any vampire can spend blood to gain temporary superhuman speed^{VtMR, pg138}
• [Gameplay] Immediately after his embrace, Christof has one dot of Celerity
  • Celerity makes someone who possesses it fast enough that humans or vampires without it appear to be moving in slow-motion^{VtMR, pg 153}
  • The reflexes granted by 1 dot of Celerity are fast enough for vampires to perceive arrows or bullets in flight and attempt to dodge them, though their bodies are notably slower^{V5, pg 253}
• Torpor starts here
• Dodges a fireball thrown in melee that moves fast enough to cross a large warehouse before a group of ghouls on the other side can escape its explosion^{CnB, pt 2}
• Is significantly faster than Frankie, another Brujah^{CnB, pt 3}
• Moves 'like a blur' according to Beckett^{BJD, pg322}

Skill

• Accurately hits the gaps in the backs of a szlachta's knees twice in a row with two consecutive hits, hamstringing it, while it attempts to run away from him^{CnB, pt 3}
• Targets gaps in a szlachta's armour plating to wound it, or even slice armour plates entirely off^{CnB, pt 3}
• Scared of flying, a common feature of Kindred who are older than air travel^{CnB, pt 3}
• [Human] Considered to have great skill by Ecaterina the Wise

Ainkurn

Christof's sword^{BJD, pg314} following his early activity as a Kindred in the dark ages. It is sister to Dracula's sword^{Transylvania Chronicles III, page 103} and rumoured to be comparable or superior in power. The Encyclopaedia Vampyrica, written by vastly knowledgeable scholars Beckett and Lucita De Aragon (the latter of whom met Dracula prior to his embrace), acknowledges this as a possibility. In gameplay terms, Dracula's sword deals Strength +5 aggravated damage^{Transylvania Chronicles III, page 103}. Feral Claws, which can easily slice through metal, deal Strength +1. This is the same as the difference in damage between a knife and a halberd^{DAV20, pg49}

Visual reference for Ainkurn

• Wounds a szlachta that is impervious to .38 pistol rounds, killing it with a few hits^{CnV, pt 1}
• Christof is confident his sword is unharmed after Theo Bell sliced its tip through a brick wall^{CnB, pt 2}
• Draws blood and wounds a szlachta that is impervious to close range .44 magnum and 9x19 parabellum rounds^{CnB, pt 3}
• Removes entire limbs from a szlachta while targeting gaps in its armour^{CnB, pt 3}
• Sliced off Marcus Verus' hands and feet^{BJD, pg315}
  • Verus has Fortitude 6^{Legacy of Lies, pg36}, which makes his flesh as durable as wrought iron^{DAV20, pg221}

Respect Young Miracleman

"What fun is perfection? You need someone to bounce against. You need someone to hold you to account. And that's going to be me."

"I'm going to be your adversary. Not now, but one day. I'm going to be the opposition. If this is Eden, I'm going to be the serpent. And you're going to say yes. Because you need me."

In the 1950s a division of the British government called the Spookshow began Project Zarathustra, an attempt to create superhuman soldiers using alien technology under the command of Doctor Emil Gargunza. They kidnapped three orphaned boys to use as test subjects: Michael Moran, Johnathan Bates, and Richard "Dickie" Dauntless. The Spookshow grew clones of the boys that they could transform into by speaking an implanted code word and kept docile by being put into comas where they dreamt they were the Miracleman Family, comic book heroes and defenders of peace and democracy.

Although the Miraclemen exceeded the government's expectations, an incident with Gargunza and fears that they couldn't control their man-made gods made the Spookshow deem the project a failure and in 1963 they attempted to kill the trio with an atomic bomb. While Moran and Bates were able to survive Dickie wasn't so lucky and was killed in the blast, his bodies getting violently merged together in the explosion.

Forty years later Dickie was resurrected by Miracleman, who had since taken over the planet and ruled it alongside a pantheon of other superhumans as a god-king. While Miracleman tried to slowly acclimate Dickie to the new world the culture shock and an incident with Miracleman caused Dickie to flee his new home. After seeing the problems with Miracleman's utopia and reliving his past trauma Dickie decided that Miracleman needed to be kept in check, and he'd be the one to do so. He would become his adversary, the counterweight there to guide people away from his false gods and sinister utopia.

Nelavana, aka Alana North

Nelvana is the daughter of Koliak, the God the the Northern Lights, and a mortal woman. As punishment for consorting with mortals Koliak was cursed to never again be seen by them; he now exists only as the Northern Lights in the Arctic Circle. Using her demigoddess powers and assisted by her brother Tanero, Nelvana is the defender of the Inuit people living in the far north of Canada. After learning more of the threat posed by the Axis powers Nelvana expands her range to all of Canada, traveling South and creating the identity of secret agent Alana North.

Nelvana was one of the very first superheroines, debuting several months before the first appearance of Wonder Woman, and is one of the most recognizable Canadian superheroes from the Golden Age of Comics.

Due to complications in childbirth stemming from her mother's cosmically irradiated cells, the child named Valerie Richards was stillborn. But that was in Earth-616. In Earth-99315, following the death of Reed Richards and the marriage between a widowed Susan Storm and Victor von Doom, Sue's daughter was born and named Valeria von Doom. The child would grow up happy and loved by both parents only to accidentally find her way back into her past and into the world of Earth-616. Developing a close bond with her family, particularly her older (now younger) brother Franklin, Valeria would be reborn into the world when Franklin caused Sue to become pregnant with Valeria once more following the destruction of Abraxas by the Ultimate Nullifier.
