Abel Smith - Stonehenge
« Thread Started on Sept 11, 2008, 11:34pm »

Name: Abel Smith

Nickname/ Alias: Stonehenge

Race: Mutant, Human

Age: Appears 20 (Hasn't aged since then)

Height: 6"4`

Gender: Male

Job: None

Hero, Villain, or Civilian: Hero

Position: No affiliation

Class: Upper Class, there were countless riches in the temple (he might actually have more money than Tony Stark)

Body: Slender and Muscular

Appearance (at least a paragraph and a picture):
Abel wears his hair down to the right side in the front and is almost always smiling. While in costume he wears an intricate karate uniform that allows for free movement and some protection. The uniform is green, gold, along with shades of grey and black. The uniform also comes with a hat that is loosely based off a Chinese military hat (from back in the day, WAY back in the day). When not in costume he is usually wearing a button up shirt with jeans and a pair of chucks.

Special traits (describe each one): His irises are silver though he wears contacts to hide this when not in costume

Skills: Boxing (Western), Wing Chun, Capoeira, Savate, Taekwondo, Muay Thai, Karate, Shaolin Kung Fu, Glima, Judo, Jujutsu, Sambo, Shuai jiao, Aikido,
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Hapkido, Wrestling, Fencing, Iado, Gatka, Kendo, Silambam, Eskrima, Jogo do Pau, Jukendo, Indian kick fighting

Powers/Gift (at least a paragraph):
Abel has super strength, the ability to control the earth, and he is immortal
Abel’s strength allows him to up to fifteen tons (30,000 pounds) without hurting himself. Abel can control all forms of earth although it is easiest to control sand and much harder to control metal he has had many years to master this and can control metal as good as Magneto can, but at a cost because of its difficulty to control it is very exhausting to control for extended periods of time. Lastly, Abel is immortal the only power he didn’t receive from his genes, he was blessed with immortality by the earth spirit so that he could forever protect the earth and those who live on it from danger.

Trustworthy: He doesn't lie unless he has to, like about his age and the fact that he is a mutant.

Personality type (a paragraph or two will do):
Abel is “unique” to say the least happy-go-lucky and has a bad habit of not knowing when to shut up. He is also a prankster who gets bored easily. Abel isn’t only about fun and games though, he also has a strong sense of justice that has been reinforced by hundreds of years of bringing criminals to justice.

Attitude (A paragraph or two will do):
Abel is one of those laid back guys that some might say is to nice, a doormat and such; but if you manage to make him mad you will have the fury of the earth rain down upon you and you won’t like it. Anyways, Abel is very empathetic towards others and will always try to comforts those who are feeling a bit down. He never judges those he doesn't know unless of course they threaten humanity, or the earth. Abel's friends are probably his greatest weakness next to psychic attacks because of his emphatic nature. He will do whatever he can to protect his friends.

Is the character confident in his/herself: Yes, why wouldn’t a super-strong immortal that can control the earth not be?

Wise: If he would stop for two seconds to think things all the way through he would be very wise, but he often acts before thinking

Caring: Yes, he cares for his friends as they are the closest thing he has to a family

Leader: He leads by example if people follow that's their choice

Brave: Yes, immortality has taught him to be a bit reckless

Fears: Psychics

Likes and dislikes:
He likes putting a smile on the faces of people. He also loves attention although he has learned that he can't always be in the spotlight. He doesn't like most psychics merely because they are one of the few things that can harm him, but he won't simply write off psychics just because they have a gift he will just keep an eye on them until he knows for sure that they aren't going to betray him.

Pass time: Martial Arts, Guitar, Sing, Video Games, and Training his powers

Weapon of choice: His fists, the Earth, Fang and Claw (a scimitar and hand ax that were found in the temple of Earth)

Pet: Rocky (an earth elemental that he befriended while in isolation)

History (at least three paragraphs):
Abel was born and raised in Amesbury, Wiltshire in south England. When his powers manifested at the age of sixteen he was declared “the earth king of prophecy” by the town and at the age of twenty was taken to the temple of earth under Stonehenge where he met the spirit of the earth, which infused itself with him granting him immortality. Also, there he gained riches beyond measure along with his signature weapons, Fang (a scimitar) and Claw (a hand ax), which have a strange connection to him that allows only him to wield them.
After the black plague struck most of the village and Abel was soon forgotten and had to seal off the temple so that it wouldn’t be ransacked by thieves or destroyed by religious zealots, so he moved the temple to the other side of the world where it would be safe. He continued to live on various lives under various names performing heroics as masked hero not wanting people to know of his powers for a multitude of reasons.
After many lives had gone by he found himself in America reunited with the temple and the country was preparing for a war with Germany and Japan and he enlisted to for the army knowing that the Axis had to be stopped. After being unable to save many of his friends he went into isolation to train his powers and body so that next time something happened he could save those he loved. Abel never went into a true isolation because he knew that times were changing and to be able to blend in he would have to keep up with the culture and technology, but in this time he never became close to anyone and did not perform any heroics he simply watched people from afar and trained. With the invention of the internet this became significantly easier for him to do using the computer to learn of the world, and playing video games and practicing martial arts for fun. He has just decided to come out of his isolation and has flown to New York to meet the x-men and other super heroes.

What is he/she doing now: Looking for something to do he is bored of being alone with only a sentient rock to keep him company

Relationship with other characters: At the moment none due to the fact that he has been in self-isolation since 1942 after WWII ended.

Special feelings toward other characters: At the moment none due to the fact that he has been in self-isolation since 1942 after WWII ended.

How he reacts to other characters: He threats everyone as a friend unless he is given reason not to.

How other characters react toward him/her: Like a regular person unless some old geezer remembers him from WWII as a soldier.

Extra info: Due to years of training quite literally everything is a weapon for Abel

Make a post for your character here. We also request that this post, once the profile is accepted, to be your first post with your character on the forum itself:
He stumbled into an ally after a long day of dealing with the “lovely” airport, a cranky taxi driver, and quite a few cranky New Yorkers all day he was lost and just wanted to find a place to sleep. Seeing someone in the ally Abel asked him if he could help him find his way to a hotel so that he could get some sleep. The man nodded and said,

“I can, but it’ll cost ya!”

As he pulled out a knife and four other men jumped out from various heaps of trash and trash cans they all had an assortment of weapons from metal pipes to chain to broken bottles. Abel yawned slowly as the gangster with knife charged him, as fast as lightning Abel pivoted on to his right grabbed his leg and threw him into a thug holding a broken bottle. The collision sent both of the men into a dumpster that was on the other end of the ally making a resounding thud and leaving an impressive dent in the side of the dumpster.
The cocky on the faces of the thugs quickly changed from that of a cocky grin to shear horror. The other three dropped their weapons and ran for it, normally Abel would have let them go; but tonight he was in a bad mode and hungry so he extended his arms and made motions with his hands as if he were gripping something and then quickly throwing it in the air. As he did this the earth under the petty thugs shot up launching them off the ground a few feet. Slowly walking up to the thugs he said,

“Tell you what if you just tell me where I can get I good night sleep I might just forget this ever happened.”

In fear the man stuttered,

“I.. i. if ya.. you ga… get outta the ally an… and take a right on uh… um… second street walk about half of a block and uh… uh… uhm… look on your uh… right you’ll see a hotel.”

With a smile Abel replied,

“Thank you. See wasn’t that much easier than trying to rob me?”

Standing up Abel set off to get some well deserved sleep. Abandoning the ally he added his last two cents

“Oh, and I trust I won’t find you guys trying to mug anyone anymore… Or else I might pay you a nice little visit.”
