Super Hero ID: Errant

Secret ID: Darius Wolfe

Known Powers: expert swordsman, shield, magical teleportation and healing

Affiliations: M.A.G.I.

 

Origin: Darius was a squire of the Knightly Order of Ysgir, and like all squires, his promotion to full knighthood involved the Errantry ritual; young knights were sent via teleportation magic to where they were needed most, and to deal with what they found there before making their way back to the cloister for their confirmation. This was the normal routine.

 

What was not routine was where Darius found himself. A strange city aflame and crumbling, with rock-like golems attacking citizens and being held back by brightly-clad warriors with a dizzying array of magics. Darius, schooled to be prepared for anything, leapt to the defense of the citizens, and followed the directions of those who seemed aware of what was going on. When the fight was over, he found himself sitting down with a representative of a group called M.A.G.I. who took his story and explained to him where he was: Paragon City, on a world called Earth, far from the world that he'd called home.

 

Now working under the alias Errant, he continues to uphold his oath, defending the people of Paragon City. One day he may find a way to return home, but until then his sword will strike down evil and his shield will defend the helpless.

Super Hero ID: Tri-Nitro

Secret ID: Dyne Midas

Known Powers: Super-strong, super-tough, super-friendly

Affiliations: G.I.F.T.

 

Origin: Dyne was born to well-off parents in a small town in central Texas. Born a month pre-mature and concerningly underweight, Dyne was otherwise a supremely healthy child, and soon demonstrated his winning attitude and unusual vitality. While he was never as big as any of the kids his age and seemed to fall further behind by the year on his growth milestones, he never let that stop him, always striving to be the fastest, the strongest and the most capable. For all of his startling successes though, it never went to his head; his parents, bewildered as they were by their child, nonetheless instilled in him the values of humility and charity, which he took to heart, quickly becoming well-liked by all of the people in his small town. Well, most of them; there was one sort of person that Dyne could never abide, and that was bullies. He quickly made it clear to the bullies in his town that he was not an easy target, but he never left it at that; so long as he was around, no one would ever be made a victim.

 

In time, his quest to protect and improve the lives of the people around him outgrew his small town, and he went away to college in Dallas, where he met his first superheroes, and got his own start as "TNT" (because dynamite comes in small packages). After graduating from college, he followed the scuttlebutt that said that, for superheroes, Paragon City was the place to make your mark. So wishing his family a fond farewell and promising to write, Dyne set off for the east coast and the singular place known as Paragon City.

 

Once in town he registered under the new name Tri-Nitro and has been bringing his strong fists and cheerful smile to the aid of its citizens.

Super Hero ID: Flux-Ion

Secret ID: Nico Escuderas

Known Powers: Force Field Generation, Electricity Generation, Flight, limited teleportation

Affiliations: D.A.T.A.

 

Origin: Nico grew up in Paragon City, following the Rikti invasion. The only world he's ever known has been bounded by the War Walls and involved super-powered heroes and villains duking it out in the streets. It wasn't surprising to those who knew him well when he first confided in them that he was working on a super suit; after all, in a world like this, what child didn't dream of growing up to be a superhero at some point? His parents were mostly just happy that he hadn't decided to dabble in the dark arts or screw around with dangerous chemicals or radiation. After all, most kids grew out of their superhero obsession and tried to live productive lives and ignore the constant war raging on around them, content in the knowledge that the heroes hadn't failed to save the city so far, despite all the troubles. Nico never quite gave up on his dreams, pulling the suit out of storage periodically before packing it back away again, until eventually life caught up, and he stopped.

 

That is, until the Shivan Meteor. Nico had just graduated high school and was taking a break before he was due to ship off to M.I.T. His elder brother Julio, a doctor, had brought his wife and newborn son back to Paragon City after years away, and had stopped in to see Nico's tiny apartment that he shared with two of his high school buddies. In the confusion following the impact, Nico lost touch with his brother, and backtracked back to his apartment, hoping to find them; instead he found his old super suit, fallen from the top of his closet. Still experimental, he knew that it might be the only way to survive and find his family.

 

Luck was on his side; he found them, hiding and confused in a grocery store being used as a temporary shelter with many more displaced people. Julio asked him to escort his wife and son, and as many people as he could, to the safe zone being established by PPD and Longbow. He did the best he could, and his force fields managed to save several lives that day, but when he got back to the grocery store for the second round, he was met with tragedy. A gas line had exploded and collapsed part of the building. Julio had managed to get several people out, but went back in for some too injured to move themselves, and had been caught in a secondary collapse. Numb, Nico had led the survivors to the safe zone and continued to help out until he was all but carried onto a transport to Atlas Park.

 

His dreams of M.I.T. forgotten, Flux-Ion now patrols the streets, taciturn and determined to save as many as he can.

Super Hero ID: Vybrant

Secret ID: Valerie Vasant

Known Powers: Energy Projection, Flight

Affiliations: S.E.R.A.P.H.

 

Origin: Valerie worked for a high-energy research firm, a subsidiary for Portal Corporation, in a lab focused on developing clean, safe energy. After the Rikti invasion, her company was formed as many of the power plants had been severely damaged, and they were tasked with the rebuilding and eventual renovation of Paragon City's power infrastructure. Their efforts were so successful that they were also contracted as part of the War Walls project, providing power generation for the massive force fields dividing and protecting the city's various districts. As things began to settle down, her company was eventually bought out by Portal Corp, who was looking for new methods to power their various endeavors, and Valerie's division was specifically tasked with creating smaller, more portable sources of power.

 

Valerie, certain she was inching closer to a breakthrough, was working late one night when a group of Clockwork broke into the lab, planning to steal the experimental research for their own purposes. Knowing it was hopeless to fight but too indignant to care, Valerie tried to stop the Clockwork minions. A stray blast caught one of the containment chambers and started a chain reaction. Their plans foiled, the Clockwork grabbed what they could and fled, leaving Valerie to try to stop the reaction from reaching the primary generator, but she was unsuccessful. The resulting blast destroyed the entire lab, and Valerie was presumed dead at the scene, though no body was found.

A week later she was found wandering the streets, blocks away from the lab, with no memory of how she got there. Though most of her memory has returned, the details of that night were lost, along with most of her knowledge of the research; but by the same token, she herself had been infused by the unstable energy, allowing her to project blasts and even fly. Now she fights crime as much out of necessity as out of a sense of duty, because the energy continues to build up in her system unless she finds a way to release it... So release it she does, against Clockwork when she can, and against other criminals wherever she finds them.
