Here are some Super villains I have been working on.MegatonReal Name: Lazar Atcanus Background: The son of a brilliant nuclear physicist during the Cold War, Lazar Atcanus lived a life of prestige while most of the people of the Soviet Union suffered. His father, Dr. Matvey Atcanus, loathed his lot in life and despite the wealth his profession brought- he hated that his country used him to make weapons of death. After discovering a groundbreaking method to condense a megaton of energy into a small hand held cube, Dr. Atcanus made arrangements to flee the Soviet Union so that his discovery would not be used as a weapon. His hopes were to return one day and offer the Motherland the "Megaton Cube" as a means to bring clean, contained energy and prosperity to the land he loved. However, Dr. Atcanus' invention was discovered and the KGB was sent to stop him and claim the Cube for the Soviet Leaders. Lazar and his father were in the doctor's office at the nuclear facility where he worked, gathering last minute documents, when the KGB hitmen arrived. Lazar watched his father gunned down, but previously told by the doctor how important the Cube was, he pulled it from his father's dead hands and made a run for it. The hitmen chased Lazar from the offices and the boy hid in the facilities main reactor room to elude the thugs. The hitmen found him, however, and they filled the boy full of rounds. One stray round struck the Mega Cube clutched in Lazar's small hands and shattered it, several more penetrated the massive reactor- the facility exploded. Lazar awoke finding that the Cube was gone, the hitmen were ash and a massive crater was all that remained of the nuclear facility. Furthermore, his body held no wounds nor was he affected by the fallout around him. He had fused with the essence of the Cube and absorbed the power of the facility. Thus, Megaton was born. As Lazar grew, he took advantage of the incredible power he wielded. He crushed the KGB and their leaders. Instead of dismantling them, he claimed their numbers, contacts and resources for his own. He then went on to topple the Soviet Leaders only to replace their hierarchy with his growing list of allies. Now he has turned his gaze to the arrogant western world, who's hunger for new weapons and global dominance caused the Cold War in the first place. Code Name Megaton is presumed to live in Russia, the puppet master behind the countries leadership. He cares little for the fate of his floundering motherland...his goals are for a world unified beneath his unyielding power and unknown vision. Powers: Super human strength, resistance and endurance which can be increased to incredible heights by absorbing and subsequently releasing kinetic energy. He can also increase his weight, size and density depending on the amount of stored energy he has acquired up to a million tons. Additionally, Megaton can store energy in his body equaling the force behind a million tons of TNT. It is unknown how long Megaton can store the energy he collects. Megaton also has a startling intellect, a powerful presence and a calculated mind.

Scarlet FeverReal Name: Sonja Haze Background: An orphan of the Bosnian War, Sonja was stolen in the night with many others who lost their families in the conflict. Taken to Greece, the children were given over to the Black Trojan Project- an infamous program that was exploring techniques using metahuman DNA. Their ultimate goals were to find out what made metahuman DNA so special, how to achieve the desired powers and to splice it with that of a normal human. The experiments bordered on torture, the results spontaneous and many died within days of arriving to the hidden labs. Sonja was given over to Dr. Norai, the head of the elemental wing. Norai worked especially with metahumans that controlled the core energy sources- earth, fire, wind, and water. He was also malicious and violent. Developing a sick attraction to Sonja, Norai spent fanatical amounts of time with her during the day. He also came for her in the night... It was Norai's hope that Sonja would be his ultimate success! Although he was careful not to kill her, his techniques were cruel and painful as he spliced the DNA of a fire manipulating metahuman with her own. Things did not go as planned.. The procedure did not grant Sonja the ability to manipulate fire, but instead the heat that caused flame. Her fever rose in minutes after the splice, causing brain damage that permanently destroyed her sanity. Broken, heat in her veins, a wild look in her eyes- Sonja burned Norai from the inside out. She then went on a killing spree through the compound and Labs, slaying scientist, guard and prisoner alike. Sonja is a damaged women. When her powers are not activated her sanity returns in bits and pieces and all of the pain and guilt from her life rushes over her. In the midst of wielding her powers, her fever rises to deadly levels and her mind suffers because of it. She is sporadic, wild and a killer when the heat surges through her. Sonja feels that her powers bring justice to those suffering around the world, but her view on reality is so melted that she can no longer tell the difference between friend or foe. Aside from her own twisted and unpredictable goals, Sonja is drawn to Megaton for reasons unknown and has worked for the man from time to time. Powers: Scarlet Fever controls heat at a molecular level. She can boil the blood in your veins, melt your skin with a wave of projected heat or create a field of heated energy around her to act as a shield or weapon. Although she cannot control fire, she can alter the heat and intensity of fire or cause things to burst into flame by applying the correct amount of heat. Although not confirmed, it is rumored that Scarlet Fever sees on the Infrared spectrum. The more power she expends, the weaker her grasp on reality becomes.

MaximusReal Name: Abraham Maximus Background: Born a mutant with the ability to charm anyone around him with enhanced pheromones, Abraham Maximus soon found that becoming successful was as easy as making eye contact and flashing his trademark smile. With ease, Abraham soon climbed social ladders that reached the heavens and by the age of 23 he had become the worlds youngest billionaire. At age 26, he had created companies that were breaking the threshold of the scientific and medical world. At age 31, he won the noble peace prize for finding a cure for the Aids virus and his teams were already busy breaking ground on a cancer cure. At age 33, he fell in love. All his life he had found companionship through the use of his powers, but his beloved Elizabeth had a rare chemical imbalance that made her unreceptive to his mutant power. She loved him for him and for that he would give her the world. They married and lived two happy years together. Tragically, as the new couple were traveling to Europe on buisness, Elizabeth passed out and fell in to a coma. The imbalance that had proven her love and intentions to Abraham had been the cause for unforeseen medical issues. She had developed a series of brain tumors and the pressure was killing her. Abraham frantically gathered his lead scientist to him to find out how far their cancer research had gotten. The results were pitiful. He fired them all. He pulled all of his impressive contacts and resources to find anyone who could help Elizabeth, but no one had any solutions. Becoming desperate, Abraham searched the underworld for aid. His searchings brought him to Megaton who agreed to help him if a favor would be returned in the future. Megaton's scientist were experimenting with new engineered leukocyte cells that would be able to "boost" the bodies natural white cells to inhuman levels- turning the bodies immune system into an unstoppable bastion of defense. However, the research was still in its infant stages and had not been tested. Maximus would hear known of it. He injected the "Bastion Cells" in to his body to see their effect. He passed out. Maximus awoke three days later. Elizabeth had died of her cancer a day after the injection. The Bastion Cells did not have the desired results. Megaton scientist cannot explain what happened in Abraham Maximus' case, but it is suspected that the man's unique mutant powers had an unusual reaction with the super cells. Instead of boosting his immune system, Maximus radiates a controllable aura that boosts the natural abilities (physical and mental) of those around him. This aura can also be used to boost metahuman abilities. As a strange byproduct, Maximus's skin appears blue due to an unnatural amount of iron in his blood. His hair lost all pigment and is now a stark white. After Elizabeth's death he has become a husk of the man he once was. He now spends his days as a stern player in the corporate world, steering his companies away from the medical field and in to new areas of research.. It is rumored he also has occasional contact with Megaton- perhaps to return a favor. Powers: Maximus' projects a boosting aura that amplifies abilities to those he chooses around him. This aura is controllable and Maximus can manipulate it to boost certain attributes. He also has retained his mutant pheromone power.

WhiteskarReal Name: Shiro Halcyon Background: The half-japanese-half-american, Shiro, was born along with his twin brother Soukon during the year of the Dueling Crane. Their mother Ishi, renowned as a modern day shugenja, was actually a powerful psychic and her gift was passed down to her children. Life was good for the twins at the high peeks of Mount Haguro and in this place the boys learned to harness their powers. Soukon used his power to cure ailments of the brain and to speak soothing words directly into worshipers's minds seeking enlightenment while Shiro kept his gift mainly to himself, learning to read peoples thoughts and how to trick them like the wicked fox. Like all good things..it did not last forever. Shiro's father had heard of his unknown twins and their power. He had always expected the mother had some sort of gift, but their trist lasted only a season and he had no intentions of raising two sons. Two sons with power was a different story. He was a professional assassin who had been training in Japan and had met Ishi by chance as he passed over the mountain- he told her he was a simple merchant and she never again asked of his profession. She would never know of the experiments he had undergone in Greece beneath the cruel hands of Dr Norvai.. -In the night, he came for the boys. Ishi's temple had no guardians, there had never been any need for them, but she had not been without warning. Using her psychic foresight she had gained a few moments to hide her children before the assassin arrived. Soukon wept, his empathy feeling the terrible pain that each of the temple's followers were experiencing under the trained hands of the assassin. Shiro saw this and could not simply sit and wait. He slipped away from his mother and went to confront the assassin. Shiro's father was a big man, dressed all in black, and his deadly hands were encased in summoned ice- his blunt fingers were punching and twisting in to the flesh of the cringing followers beneath him, hitting pressure points that only a master would know of. People died beneath his finger tips. The man was a metahuman that could control the cold of the mountains. Shiro was afraid, but he was cunning like the fox. He used his psychic powers to alter his Father's mind, creating an illusion, forcing the assassin to not see a small boy before him but a vengeful kami of fire! Shiro smirked as he saw the fear in his father's eyes, but the man was a warrior born despite his terror. He rushed forward, his fists glittering in their jagged ice gauntlets, and he sent a savage uppercut along his sons face- rending the skin and freezing it almost immediately. Shiro was scarred for life, a twisting white gash along one side of his face. He had failed. The assassin killed the rest of the followers. The assassin killed Ishi, the mother of his children. The assassin stole the boys and made of them weapons.. Many years have passed since that night on the mountain. Shiro has become a man and he lives with his darkness- the savage white scar on his face never allows him to forget. He killed his father, the assassin, after learning all the murderer could teach him. He broke his brother's spine, crippling him for life, when Soukon spoke out against him. He now hunts down metahumans that he feels are becoming too powerful. Never again will one with so much power break the spirit of a young child and the peaceful mountain he lived on. Luckily, Whiteskar has a grand mentor in Megaton. Lazar Atcanus always has the perfect targets and with his guidance the world becomes a safer place for the weak. Powers: Whiteskar has the unique psychic ability to create illusions in the mind of his targets, altering his own image in their thoughts. He is not a shape shifter, but his gift allows him to appear as other people and beings in the minds he assaults. This ability allows Whiteskar to get very close to the metahumans he hunts, often ending their lives while appearing as a friend or loved one. It is rumored that Whiteskar can read surface thoughts. Whiteskar is also a master martial artist, trained in many forms of combat from his father and has become lethal with his body. On his belt he carries 8 simple darts, each filled with an injectable serum given to him by Megaton himself. The darts use a potent toxin that is attuned to a metahumans unique neural system. The toxin is a fast acting agent that neutralizes a metahumans powers for a very short time- only about 10 seconds. It is during this vulnerable state that Whiteskar delivers his killing blows. Without their powers, he feels that no metahuman stands a chance against him. Whiteskar's darts have no effect on Megaton..
