It's fun, like a game.

I'll go first, though I admit up front that this horrible superheroine is not my own.


Ant Girl.
 
Oh yeah, and you should all probably have more patience and attention to detail than I do.

Your superhero should have special powers n'stuff.

It'll be cool.
 
Ha ha!

But what do they do, glam?

Special powers?

Good or evil?

Cool costumes, like tights and capes and shit?

C'mon, details, man I want details.
 
Lintman!

Flown to Earth to save it from disaster! Lintman! With the powers of invisibilty..Lintman travels the country extracting belly button lint from unsuspecting females while they sleep, bathe, or shower!

Lintman! Whose purpose is to construct a lint-mesh shield against a large asteroid approaching the Earth. Unknown to Earth scientists, belly button lint from females absorbs hormones and chemicals not found anywhere else. The cross matrix of female secretions creates an impenetrable material against all known elements found on the periodic tables.

*Don't miss the next adventure, where Lintman finds lint in the wrong hole! :D
 
AccesoriesWoman!

No matter what outfit she wears, perfectly matching shoes, jewelry, and belts appear. Her fashion sense overpowers the evil Tacky Villains, who try to get the public to wear jelly shoes and capri pants.

Smashgirl and Glamorilla got thier powers at the same time when senior prom was invaded by aliens from dimension x. Where as bookish Jan Slater was transformed into the superstrong heroine known as Smashgirl...the prom queen was tranformed into Glamorilla, an insane giant mutated gorilla that runs around in eveningwear toting a machine gun.

Avalon is somewhat of an angel. The son of a rogue lord of order and a ballerina. He's a magician.

Andrew comes from Apokolyps. Motherbox's son. In an effort to keep him away from Darkseid he was shunted into the computer of a wealthy industralist who adopted the intelligence as his own and designed a series of lifelike bodies. Andrew has a habit of exploding but comes back each time a little more human. He and Avalon are lovers.

Deadboy is a ghost.

Rat Man!

He can naw through any building
He can attack dogs 20 times his size.
He's faster than the local mouse.
He's 50 times stronger than his sister.
and he can see through the knot holes he's already chewed through.
 
I like the idea of 'The Lunch Lady'
Beware the Turkey Surprise!
 
Since this is more or less a joke thread, I'll respond seriosly. It'll be ironic or some shit like that.

My first superhero is Bass. Bass is a large African American man who was raised in the poor neighborhoods of a large city (I haven't decided which one yet). Around puberty his power manifested. Bass has an inhumanely high blood pressure. His power is in fact simply the ability to withstand it. His heart beats are so powerful that he produces a natural baseline whereever he goes, and is capable of focusing the beats into focused sonic vibrations that he may use to stun people, augment his lifting or jumping abilities, or cushion impact. Generally he does not wear a costume beyond his basic street clothes. He is a strongly moral man and a devout christian. He saw his best friend shot by a cop when he was growing up, resulting in a life long fear of police and police brutality. He is kind hearted and volunteers in his community often. He has a rich deep voice, and broad shoulders. His arch nemesis is his own father, a rich executive who abandoned his mother after a one night stand. His father is psychic with telepathic and some telekinetic abilities, along with highly limited precognition. They are very similarly built.
 
Number 2

My second superhero is the Nightmare. Nightmare is based primarily of Swampthing as far as inspiration goes. He was at one time human. He was a soldier. At some point he suffered a catastrophic injury, and the army, wanting test subjects for a new super soldier program, declared him dead. He was subjected to hideous chemical experiments and gene therapy. He was tortured night and day, for many months before he finally escaped. He was free, but now a monster.
Nightmare has no memories of who he is or what he was. Sometimes bits and pieces return to him, bits about a wife, and a family. He lives as a homeless man, and hides in shadows so few people can notice his unhumanity. He is desperately afraid of the army who is desperately searching for him.
His power is that any cell in his body can convert into any known type of cell in existence. He is capable of shifting his shape into giant monsters, or shrinking down into the size of an amoeba. He cannot truly be killed until every one of his cells die. He heals by feeding, and is constantly ravenous. His body consumes itself when he doesn't eat. Fortunately for him, he can exist on any form of organic material. He can take on any form he wish, but has trouble maintaining any given form for very long, a his dead cells are constantly being discarded in trails of purple slime he leaves on everything he touches.
 
Cockman: Able to leap onto small beds and ravage unsuspecting females, his powers prevent them from remembering the event. This of course is where all your erotic dreams stem from:D

My third character is One Eyed Jack. Jack is your typical redneck shitkicker type. He likes country music, beer, motorcycles, and NASCAR. Jack is a little different than most though. A few people in the world have a gift to see the spirit world, a plane coexistent with ours that is home to ghosts and demons. Many go there whole lives without ever tapping the Gift, as Jack would have most likely done if he had not gotten into a bar fight one night. Both men had pulled out knives, Jack stabbed his opponent in the gut, while Jack was stabbed in the eye. What Jack saw through his bloodied eye was the soul of the man he had just killed rise out of the body and force it's way down Jack's throat.
After that night, Jack could see into the spirit world. Jacks right eye sees the mundane world. Jack's left eye, that was stabbed, sees the spirit. Using his left eye, Jack can consume the souls of those who have recently died. Every time he does, he grows stronger and faster.
Jack has an enemy in the Gifted Eye, a group of occultists and psychic who share Jacks gift. The have used the power to make themselves grow rich and powerful. They originally extended an invitation to Jack, but he refused. They now see him as a threat.
Jack is short, but wiry. He wears a pair of coke bottle glasses with a solid black lens that can flip from one eye to the other. He has brown medium length hair and his good eye is blue. The spirit eye is solid red. He has a girlfriend, a stripper/fortune teller named Peaches, who acts as his companion and spiritual advisor.
 
He's more than super human.
He has the ability to seduce any woman.
He has thousand of children following his every move; most of whom are his own children.
He's faster than a mailman with the welfare checks.
Able to leap a family clinic in a single bound.

Who is that masked man?
Why he's no one other than...............

"The SPERMINATOR"
 
Galen Scylis

a master of stealth and death, Galen Scylis is an odd super hero indeed. not a native of this universe/realm, much less this planet, he is a drow, an ebony-skinned, white-haired elf native to the maze of caverns deep underground, and as such, suffers temporary blindness when suddenly exposed to bright lights and normally suffers a slight decrease in his abilities when working in brightly lit areas, a condition lessened by his constantly wearing chic sunglasses :cool:. he does not have any real super powers, though he has a few abilities that are innate to the drow that he can use a few times a day, as though the gods he is used to do not hold sway over this realm, magic similar to the Weave he is familiar with exists here, none the less. he can create dancing, multicolored spheres of light, multicolored lights reminicent of fire that surround the target(s) he designates (but does not actually burn, as it is merely light), and create globes of pure darkness which totally absorb all light in a specific radius. also, he has "darkvision" (he can see in the infrared spectrum) that replaces his normal vision when in the dark. he has trained long and hard to be as stealthy, deadly, and aware of his surroundings as possible, and it is next to impossible to catch him off guard; his hearing is second to none, his eyesight is incredably sharp, he is extremely adept at spotting traps, alarms, ambushes, and the like, and his inhumanly quick reflexes allow him to dodge anything thrown at him with grace and ease and to bring his weapons to bear at a moment's notice. so keen are his skills that, though he is quite competent with firearms, his weapons of choice remain his two magical scimitars, which he deftly wields in each hand.

while he still inhabited his native realm, he gained a special hatred of the orcs that inhabited his homelands and a drive to eliminate the threat they posed; he is especially adept at tracking and slaying them, though that does him little good here on Earth. now he turns his attention towards evil and corrupt men and organizations that plague our planet. he follows his own moral compass, helping those in need in whatever way he can, and is never predjudice towards others, prefering to see the good in all, if possible, and "agreeing to dissagree" with those who do not see things his way, though this does not always apply to those individuals or organizations which prove selfish, corrupt, and evil.

Galen stands 5' 4" tall, and weighs 135 lbs. his long, white hair is usually hanging loose behind his back (it reaches his shoulder blades), and his eyes are a piercing lavenderin color. normally he wears moderately casual clothing, cargo pants are a favorite as are loose t-shirts, though, to fit into an area, he makes use of his Ring of Alter Self (seems pretty self-explanitory, but it alters his physical appearance) along with indiginous clothing to give him the features and the look to blend in with the native populace. while on a mission or a patrol, he drifts towards more streamlined gear, which may include light body armor at times, and always wears a hooded Cloak of Elvenkind and soft-soled Boots of Elvenkind (gifts from a dear friend before he was transported to this realm which aid his stealthiness quite substancially).
 
yes, i have too much free time sometimes. tonight is no exception.

Her special power is the ability to carve ordinary white bread toast into decorative shapes, while still managing to keep them sandwich-worthy.

When Toast-points Girl is hurling her toast-points at people, they develop a sudden urge to drink tea or punch and sit or stand around uncomfortably until they become vapid and docile.
