Character Name: Shotgun Steve
Character Source: Original
[spoiler]Character History:
Shotgun Steve's real name is actually Reginald Bennerton. He doesn't particularly like this name, so he changed it to something he thought sounded cooler... unfortunately, he didn't think of changing it quickly enough; had he done so from the moment he arrived in the Omniverse no one would have even suspected anything, but now many of his allies are aware of his real name, much to his chagrin.
Before coming here he lived on an alternate universe Earth, in which magic other supernatural phenomena were commonplace. As a normal human, though, Reginald was condemned to a life of mediocrity, whilst others went and fought glorious battles and became renowned as great heroes or terrible villains. Good or bad, he hated them all equally.
Ultimately, though, he decided to take his revenge upon them and so found himself a gang of like-minded fellows, bought up as much weaponry as he could, and then went out hunting. For the first couple weeks, things went well; they killed a few weak heroes and lesser villains, and managed to evade capture by their city's police force... but then their luck ran out, and purely by chance, as they walked down a street one day, they bumped into a seemingly ordinary businessman, causing him to drop his phone. He turned out to be an incognito supervillain, who took offence at this and decided to brutally murder them all. Doing so took him just over three seconds.
For some reason, Omni considered Reginald worthy of summoning to the Omniverse. As soon as someone told him the difference between Primes and Secondaries he immediately realised how lucky he had gotten... and promptly forgot all about the normal humans he had claimed to be standing up for back in his own world; becoming a Prime supremacist instead. He now views Secondaries as worthy of being nothing more than slaves... preferably his slaves, if at all possible.
He joined a gang called the Northside Wolfpack not long after showing up in the Omniverse and has been living on Tier Five ever since. He quickly rose through the ranks, yet wasn't at all satisfied, and made no secret of his desire to take his place at its head one day.
His path to realising that ambition hit a slight snag when his base was overrun by stormtroopers and the Prime accompanying them whilst he was out doing something else, and then ran into an even more serious issue when he got himself killed fighting them. He now seeks revenge, more than anything.
To this end he acquired a new, support-based, skill, after encountering a Prime named Arin Lishtar in the Nexus and deciding to combine their power in order to combat his nemesis...
Physical Description:
Steve has tanned Caucasian skin, is fairly tall and has a lean build. He's 52-years-old, and has grey hair which reaches just past his shoulders and is left to hang loose behind his back, as well as a wispy, bedraggled & short grey beard on his chin. His eyes are blue. He most often wears an unbuttoned grey leather waistcoat and a pair of ragged, old, loose white jeans, as well as black, steel-toed boots.
Level: 4
Stats:
ATK: 5
DEF: 3
SPD: 2
TEC: 3
Upgrades:
Stat Upgrade I (1000)
Stat Upgrade II (2000)
Stat Upgrade III (4000)
Proficiencies:
Physical Strength (1000)
Ranged Proficiency (1000)
Area Attack Proficiency (600)
Buff Proficiency (400)
Powers: N/A
Moves:
Pile a' Guns (900) – Approval
(Ranged Proficiency, Physical Strength, Area Attack Proficiency)
Steve has a huge pile of double-barrel shotguns and ammo for them carted around by his Secondaries. For the purposes of this move, that means he'll never run out of shells and if a gun breaks he can just replace it immediately. Reloading (or replacing) a gun takes two seconds.
Steve is strong enough that he can handle the recoil of a shotgun one-handed, and as such, he can dual-wield these weapons if he wants to, though doing so imposes a significant penalty to his accuracy.
In all other respects these are normal double-barrel shotguns. All his shotguns are 12 gauge and 48” long. They can be loaded with either slug or shot rounds, and can also be used as crude clubs in melee combat if necessary. The two ammo-types are equally strong, but the slugs have greater range whilst the shot has a small AoE: the effective range of slug rounds is 90m and their speed is 540m/s, whilst shot can only go up to 45m and 340m/s. The maximum spread of shot rounds is 50".
Because this move lacks much of a drawback, they don't deal quite as much damage as one would expect from a character with as high an ATK as Steve.
Electron Overcharge: Enhancement [Tier 2 Super Utility] (800) – Approval
(Buff Proficiency)
Steve Focuses on one of his hands for one second, during which time he cannot attack or move faster than walking pace. Over the course of this second, a blue-white luminescence slowly grows around the affected hand, and electricity begins to crackle around it as well. After being charged, he then calls out the word “Enhance!” and touches an ally, and the light vanishes with a noise like a clap of thunder. The ally tenses up for a moment as the electricity briefly courses through their body, before returning to normal.
After activation, this Buff has no lingering aesthetic effects. It slightly increases the strength of the target for one round as their body is driven beyond its normal limits, but its primary effect is to boost their combat skill by shocking their brain into working better. The idea is based on electroconvulsive therapy, but… just… don’t ask how it actually makes any sort of sense. It’s Omniphysics.
Stat Bonuses:
ATK +1
DEF +0
SPD +0
TEC +3
Spent OM: 11700/16000
Why does this character have to be a prime?
Partly because it would be nice to have a recurring villain for my character to face, and partly because I've already mentioned once that he's a Prime and would rather not have to go and edit that out. =P
What role do they play in your story?
Recurring Villain.
Are they an A, B, or C-Lister?
