BIOGRAPHY

Sidney Mason was raised from birth to be a mercenary, like his father, Marcus. Trained rigorously, tested constantly, the boy was subjected to a world of pain and harsh lessons, receiving very little in the way of a normal childhood. He grew up fast, as fast as his father could push him, in order to harden him against the dangers of the world.

But Marcus' patience was tried as the boy grew older. Naturally, Sidney tried to assert his own identity, rather than the one Marcus demanded. His impulsive and intuitive nature was a constant foil to his methodical and calculating father. The boy latched on to spaghetti westerns and eighties action films for any shred of escape or romance he could get. He became a loose cannon: twirling his weapons, firing them wildly during a firefight, or spitting one-liners at his enemies instead of shooting them. The teenager’s training suffered, and a rift developed between the father and son duo.

That rift became a yawning chasm as one day, Marcus left his son on his own. At the age of fifteen, Sidney was alone with his father’s weapons and his money, but none of his guidance. The boy went looking for “the Boss”, in a panic. He pulled on every string his father had shown him, utilized every contact. He thought it was the latest of Marcus’ tests. But after a year and a half of searching, there was no trace.

There was only one way to skin it: Sidney had been abandoned.

Despite all his skill, and the war chest his father had accrued over the years, Sid was mortified at the idea of going it alone. Sidney decided he wasn’t meant for this life after all. Why else would his father leave if not out of disappointment? The youth instead returned to Millennium City, the place of his birth. Though he languished in hedonistic pursuits for the first few months, Sid soon craved the danger and thrill of his former profession. He found it in superheroics.

Utilizing his killer instinct, and his great skill with weapons, the boy took to the streets of Millennium City as Kid Ballistic! Though he remains a wild, often destructive force, Sid has since proven to be a force for good as well, albeit a loud one.

APPEARANCE

Kid Ballistic sashays around Millennium City, wearing a black and blue-orange costume that is as loud as it is effective. On top of a temperature reactive body suit, the gunslinger wears a combination of Kevlar and Dragonskin for protection, though he usually goes without arm protection to improve mobility. Gun-stuffed leather holsters hug his legs, and a shotgun holster adorns the back of his ballistic vest, to say nothing of the handful(s) of hidden weapons on his person. His combat boots are thick leather and sturdy boron-carbide that protect from his heels to his knees. Kid Ballistic's very own emblem, the "Jolly Bomber", smiles wickedly from his belt buckle.

Whether costumed or not, Sidney Mason is a strapping young man with fair skin, dark blue eyes, and raven black hair. He possesses the body of an athlete, honed by years "on the road", and aided by Sid's ravenous metabolism, which burns away all signs of his atrocious diet. Scars can be found on just about every region of his body, particularly his hands. Of note are a former knife wound on the back of his right shoulder, the leftovers of a bullet entry wound on his upper right abdomen, and a nasty entry and exit wound on his lower left leg. Sidney is thankful that his face has so far remained relatively unblemished by combat.

Though the young gun always favors going in uniform, he occasionally leaves his "Boom Cave" wearing "civvies". Most often he opts for a surprisingly fashionable (thanks to tips from his friend and teammate Lash) khaki pant and black V-Neck shirt, complete with "uncombat" boots and gray aviator sunglasses. Sidney never goes unarmed unless absolutely necessary, and even then, he does his best to smuggle actual or improvised weaponry into or past areas of high security when he can.

PERSONALITY

Kid Ballistic is renown (and perhaps infamous) for his wildcat approach to crimefighting. Though tactically sharper than most superheroes his age, he regularly neglects his training for the thrills of the job. During combat, the boy in blue will fight with barely constrained, devilish enthusiasm, cackling or crying out in celebration as he unloads magazines of ammo at his enemies. In a fashion that can only be described as sensual, Sidney enjoys battle, when it is going well. The vibrations of automatic weapons fire, the tremors of a grenade detonating, the smell of gunsmoke; Sidney can't get enough. To him, they are as beautiful as works of art. This high can lead to reckless gunplay and careless use of explosives, more often than not leading to collateral damage. Sid, if he acknowledges it at all, dismisses his path of destruction as "part of the job". One might suspect that he enjoys it more than a "hero" should.

There are times when the young gun's training comes to the fore, and Kid Ballistic shows himself to be clever, inventive, and even disciplined. For his age, the superhero has been through a remarkable amount of stress and punishment. If he isn't on cloud nine, guns blazing, Sid can be counted on to pursue an objective with a clear head, even restraint. But these moments are few and far between; Sid would rather enjoy his moments of controlled chaos, and let everyone and everything else sort itself out. Sid's focus is usually brought out by his time spent preparing and maintaining his weapons, stocking his hideouts, and constructing his inventions.

The young hero carries himself with a swagger and confidence that smacks of spaghetti western heroes. He would probably wear spurs if it wouldn't be so impractical. Some of this is a well-earned surety developed by years of training and successful missions. However, beneath the surface, there lies a powerful fear of failure and abandonment. So much of what others see is bravado, an overcompensation for what Sid perceives as weakness. After all, in the "real world", weakness gets you killed. This mentality proves difficult in building trust or relationships of any depth, at least at first.

Despite the killer instinct instilled by his father, and the deep seated fears of a child who grew up far too fast, Sid manages to have a good heart. When he finally allows himself to make lasting attachments, he rabidly defends them. His callous attitude and hard-edged philosophy softens on occasion, showing a generous and caring individual. Which side of the young gun wins out in the end, only time will tell.

POWERS & ABILITIES

Quickdraw Whether from his holster, an enemy’s holster, or a nearby surface, Sidney can arm himself in literally the blink of an eye. Currently, he clocks his quickdraw at 25-30 milliseconds, which is very near the world record.

Weaponsmithing Perhaps Sidney’s most prodigious skill, Sidney’s ability to assemble, modify, and invent firearms and ammunition keeps Kid Ballistic ahead of the curve.

Improvised Weaponry In a pinch, and especially with preparation, Sidney can turn all sorts of things into a weapon. Molotov cocktails, zip guns, pipe-bombs, and even fireworks have been used by the Boy in Blue when conventional weapons were not available.

Conventional Firearms Expert Through his years of experience, Sid has developed great know-how with modern (and some not-so modern) firearms. If it has widespread usage, you can bet Sid can take it apart, put it back together, and operate it.

Demolitions Expert Sid is proficient with most forms of explosives, from hand grenades, to missiles, to Semtex. He can disarm all manner of mines and bombs, and has a working catalog of creative ways to arm, detonate, or deliver all kinds of explosives.

Physical Fitness Gifted with a high metabolism, and having been pushed to his limits since birth, Sid sports an exemplary physical conditioning, despite his atrocious diet and drinking habits.

High Pain Threshold Sid has been trained to resist pain, both in battle and interrogation. He’s also withstood years of pain that most his age could never dream of. Thus, the teenager can continue fighting despite suffering injury. The adrenaline gained during battle only enhances this quality. So does whiskey.

Killer Instinct Kid Ballistic’s training centers around lethal force. Though the young hero invests heavily in less-than-lethal means, at his core, he still operates on a kill-or-be-killed basis, and he takes to combat with little to no hesitation, keeping his head in the game when others his age would falter.

Mercenary Training Sid’s father trained him to be ready for all manner of situations. His repertoire includes wilderness survival, offensive driving, small-unit tactics, smuggling techniques, foreign languages, and the art of bargaining, to name a few.

EQUIPMENT

Heckler & Koch Mark 23 “SOCOM” (Nina & Billie)

This is Kid Ballistic's bread and butter. Normally reserved for the United States Special Forces, KB is proud to own more than a few of them. It allows the attachment of a laser sight and suppressor, but KB isn't interested in either. He got his hands on this weapon because it's ambidextrous, water-proof, and corrosion resistant. If it's good enough for SpecOps, it's good enough for Kid Ballistic.

Smith & Wesson Governor (Ella)

If the HK Mark 23 is KB's bread and butter, the Smith & Wesson Governor is his...cottage cheese? It's not just a solid back-up, it's perfect for his special ammunition. Revolvers survive when automatics don't, they work in wet conditions and don't jam nearly as often. This revolver in particular supports three different ammunition types: .45 Colt, .45 ACP, and .410 shotgun shells. It's versatility makes it ideal to deliver one of his custom rounds, and makes a great secondary handgun. He always carries two, often custom loaded for the mission with a mix of standard and custom ammunition.

Walther PPK-E (Nancy)

Bigger isn't always better. Wait...yes it is. But sometimes you need something you can hide. It's the one thing James Bond has going for him. Stuffed in his boot, in a suitcase, or down his pants (aw yeah), the PPK-E is KB's resort when all other clips are empty. It's a .32 weapon, but when you have a tendency to unload the entire magazine, it does its job.

Mossberg & Sons 500 (Dolly)

Right, so this is a 12 gauge, pump-action, pistol grip, yadda yadda yadda. I'd say I don't wanna bore you with the details, but I just don't wanna bore me with the details. KB likes this for its maneuverability, price, that useful-as-hell breacher choke (knock knock!). And it's pump action. Who doesn't love that sound!?

Heckler & Koch MP5A3 (Etta)

"H-K-M-P-5-A-3, find out what it means to me!". The standby of badasses around the world, KB digs the MP5 for its reliability and sterling performance as a submachine gun. When he needs something steadfast, portable, and automatic (and he always does), KB goes for the MP5.

Heckler & Koch IAR (Edith)

OK, so this much should be obvious now: it doesn't get better than German engineering for this kid. In Europe or Africa, Asia or the Middle East, his father kept his collection of HKs close, and KB learned that lesson well. When KB needs to get serious he packs this bad boy. Now, KB doesn't dig assault rifles very much: they're big and...accurate. There's no tension, no savoring the uncertainty of your bullets' trajectories! But he also knows to be prepared, so he always has IARs in storage.

Norinco Type 69 RPG (Gladys)

The Chinese version of the more archetypal Russian RPG-7. Like a lot of the Reds' weapons, the Type 69 is cheap and easy to use. It's loud and dirty, like any good rocket launcher. It does something near and dear to KB's heart: delivers explosives quickly and stylishly. He loves the way its grenades travel through the air. Naturally, he mostly uses concussion rounds, but it's still impressive.

M84 Stun Grenade

In a world where killing is a big no-no, rubber bullets, bean bags, and these bad boys are king. They're practically Kid Ballistic's party favors. Great for getting someone's attention, saying hello, saying goodbye, asking a girl out, or paying your bill at a restaurant. Oh, and clearing a room, stunning the enemy, creating a diversion, etc.

M67 Fragmentation Grenade

And here's his big brother. Let's not beat around the bush: it's a dangerous world. And even though heroes don't kill, it pays to be ready for anything. Maybe that means blowing up a car. But in Millennium City, it definitely means blowing up a [CENSORED] robot. You just hope it's driving a car so you can get a two-for-one deal. So it should come as no surprise that KB loves these little babies, but keeps them in his pants until its safe. Usually. And he doesn't actually keep them in his pants. There's enough firepower down there.

Semtex Plastic Explosive

Semtex. Just listen to that name. Just hearing it reminds you what kind of man you want to be. She's soft, but tough. She'll do whatever you want her to do, but not without working for it. She's unique, waterproof, and stays plastic in below-zero temperatures. And that color! KB is a plastique man. He always has some handy. I am not exaggerating. It's so versatile KB is convinced there's nothing it can't do. Questionite be damned: KB wants a Semtex exchange.

Gerber Mark II Survival Knife (Peggy)

Kid Ballistic doesn't savor melee combat. That shouldn't be a surprise. Not that he's afraid or unable to fight, it's just no fun. Besides, point-blank range is his playground. But when he simply can't fire a weapon or use an explosive, his fists and this knife are his back-up. It also makes for a great tool in a pinch.

COFS 39-09 Ordinanza Combat Dagger (Claudia)

A gift from Warhound, who has become a mentor of sorts to the young gun, the 39-09 Ordinanza is a restyling of the paracadutista assaltatore, or assault paratrooper, knives carried by Italian paratroopers as far back as 1939. The paratroopers would wear the daggers in their boots, which suits Kid Ballistic just fine. The knife is a sturdy, black-oxide coated blade with a forprene handle, and sports the Italian Special Forces seal of approval. It makes for a deadlier blade for when Sidney is forced to forgo his namesake in close-quarters.

Thrillers, Fillers, Rubbers, and Killers

He's cool, he's quick, he's good-lookin', but Kid Ballistic's real genius lies in his custom ammunition. Trained by his father and other professionals around the world, KB has years of experience and experiments under his belt. Not that all of his inventions are successful or safe, but some are the only reason he can be a gunslinger and not be a murderer. Among his creations are low-velocity rubber rounds, mag rounds, tracer rounds, and rescue rounds.

Grapple Gun

Besides a good run or a cab, this is how KB makes his way about Millennium City. This item's an indispensable tool and occasional weapon. With it, he scales entire storied buildings or swings between them in the nick of time. It can make a solid projectile weapon if you just need to knock someone down at close range. It can be used to grab opponents and reel them in. One of KB's favorite things to do is lock the grappling claw onto an explosive device and launch it onto a roof, through a window, into a passing car, etc.

Armor

KB’s costume includes a temperature-adaptive bodysuit, Dragon Skin/Kevlar ballistic vest, Kevlar pants and chaps, leather/boron carbide combat boots and elbow pads, and leather fingerless gloves. Because of his compulsion to look his best, he removes the sleeves from most of his bodysuits, and custom colors his vest and chaps. All together they protect his ass while keeping it moving at a decent pace. He can take most small arms fire, knives, blunt objects. He could even withstand fire for a brief time if he weren't sleeveless. The entire outfit is waterproof, fireproof, and bulletproof. Is it idiotproof? Keep your distance, I'd rather not test it out.

LOCATIONS

The Boom Cave Kid Ballistic's home and base of operations. The Boom Cave is a highly renovated and retrofitted basement that Sidney uses to store and fabricate his weaponry. It is highly soundproofed, so as not to disturb the owners upstairs, an elderly couple from whom he rents. He also takes out their garbage on occasion. The Cave has a suite of machine tools, several workbenches, and a weapons cache just daring the ATF to investigate. Up until recently, the Cave has also been his home, furnished with simple folding chairs and an old naval cot.

Safe Houses & Weapons Caches Spread around Millennium City and its outskirts, Sid has a few well-placed stores of weapons, ammo, first aid, and replacement costumes in case of emergency. Many are simply storage units, while some are cleverly hidden. Sidney also manages spots around the city that act as safe houses: hotel rooms, studio apartments, or abandoned buildings to use as pit stops, hiding places, or emergency headquarters in times of crisis.

"The Range" Among the ruins of western Millennium City, Sidney has staked out a couple spots for business and pleasure. One of these is a nondescript street, surrounded by crumbled buildings and half-buried in rubble. Sidney often uses this area as a firing range and testing ground for his weapons and special ammo. Mostly, he uses glass bottles and soda cans as targets, but sometimes he gets more creative.

Erin Reyes' Apartment As a burgeoning Templar, Faith was set up with a small, one bedroom apartment in West Side. Since beginning their romance with one another, Sid has found himself in the spartan domicile more and more often. He loves the grime and grit of the Boom Cave, but it's hard to deny a real bed and shower; to say nothing of the company. A spare costume, spare clothes, and a few hidden weapons make it feel all the more like home. However, the events of early 2018 destroyed this apartment, and the Masons have since moved on.

The Masons' Apartment After Erin's apartment was destroyed in the volcanic uprising of Avernus and his minions, the newly married couple sought a new place to call home. The first place to call home, in fact. After much deliberation and searching, Sid & Erin found an apartment hiding in plain sight: the garage KB and Ace used to work on the Buster! Above the auto shop was an old, dilapidated flat, with chipped paint, dust and cobwebs galore, and spotty plumbing. But a fixer-upper seemed the perfect thing for these two warriors, and with some diligence they've managed to fashion a modest, but beautiful little home in West Side. Part of the renovations naturally included places for their weapons and costumes, as well as upgraded security measures, a surround sound speaker system, and newly finished hardwood floors.

WEAKNESSES

Only Human Sidney has been shot, stabbed, and nearly blown up on several occasions. Only training, tenacity, and dumb luck have saved him thus far, because a single mistake could cost him his very mortal, very squishy life.

Only Eighteen Of course, this young hero has been through a lot, and has a leg up over his peers when it comes to life-or-death situations, or the hard truths of the world. But no one has a monopoly on wisdom, and Sid is certainly still an adolescent, with no shortage of fears, insecurities, and character flaws that can be turned like knobs on control panel.

Poor Aim For all the bravado and all the training, Sidney is a mediocre marksman at best. He makes up for it with rapid fire and high yield. But in situations that call for a well-placed shot, he is likely to fail.

Collateral Damage Kid Ballistic’s approach to combat is a symphony of bullets and bombs. Plenty can go wrong. Innocent bystanders (or fellow heroes) may get caught in the crossfire, and structures may collapse or go up in flames as a result.

Ballistic Temperament Generally, Sid would rather shoot first, and ask questions later. He can be suspicious, even paranoid of strangers. He can also have a short temper, depending on his mood and which buttons are pushed. This makes Sid dangerous to his enemies, and perhaps dangerous to his friends.

Kiloton Ego A combination of real skill and invented notions, Sid’s belief in himself seems to know no bounds. Normally confidence is a strength, but when it leads one to show off or boast in the midst of battle, it can quickly become a liability. It also makes Kid Ballistic difficult to deal with outside of combat.

Outlaw Despite having committed to a life of crimefighting, much of Sid’s old habits have persisted, and the boy skirts the law in all kinds of ways. Underage drinking and smoking, refusing to register as a superhero, and illegal weapons shipments are just a few ways he remains dirty in the eyes of the law. Sometimes he feels it’s justified. Other times he breaks the law just for fun.

OPINIONS

"Kay Bee is my man! He's got style, a sense of humour and knows what it means to be at the top of the food chain, so you know you can trust the guy. - Maverick

"Sid comes across like WAY different than when I first met him. He's mellowed like a LOT and he might not always SAY it but I know the Progeny are kiiiinda like the actual family he always wanted? He used to be SO loud and SO cocky, and like... he can still be that person... sometimes. I can tell he reflects on things a lot more, there's like gears and stuff going round and round. I love him, he's like a brother for sure." - Lash

"Of all of the members of the Progeny, I find I have more common ground with Kid Ballistic than with any of the others, especially when it comes to motivations for what we do. Which is ironic, considering just how completely different we are in most other aspects." - Cait Sith

"Sometimes, I wonder how I'm able to even keep up with this guy! I'm still glad he was able to understand me when I got my power-- I wouldn't be with the Progeny without him." - Communick

"Miao." - Miss Pussycakes

"KB's my homeboy and I trust him with my life. Admittedly I do have some reservations about him being behind the wheel of a vehicle, carrying a batch of C-4, a stick of dynamite, TNT, nitro... or with anything else that can go boom, really. But with my life? Sure." - Black Ice

"I'm glad to have another normal human on the team and it's good that he enjoys what we do. I see a bright, fully loaded future for him." - Cobalt Crush

"Kid Ballistic seems incredibly determined and has a strong drive to succeed. I'd tell him to expand on his skill sets as well as continue to apply himself to his shooting expertise. I'm curious as to what the future holds for him. " - Sparrowhawk

"Initially, Kid Ballistic was very...antagonistic. But the more I get to know Sidney Mason, the more I've learned that there is so much more to him than the facade he puts on for others. Despite the fact that we are in so many ways complete opposites, I find that I really care about him, in a way I've never cared about another before. I'm not sure where things will go between the two of us... and... as confusing as all this is, I find myself excited at the same time." - Faith

"Sid!! Don't tell anyone I said this cause it might muck up his big bad boy rep...but Sid's a big softie. Like for serious. He talks up this big jerk game, but he's pretty squishy in the middle, if y’know what I mean. If I have one problem with Sid though, it's his massive love for the boom boom pow. More like boom boom OW. Yikes. - Deviate

"Sid is precisely the kind of person I'd hate, except... I don't. It's a bit of a mystery to me. I heard he was a lot more abrasive before, but getting to know him, he just seems like a class clown with an unhealthy firearms obsession. Maybe he's nice to me because I could turn his guns into modern art, but I'd like to think he's just warmed up to teamwork. I can relate." - Strong Suit

TROPES

APPEARANCE

Every Scar Has A Story - For the youngster that he is, Kid Ballistic has endured much in the way of physical and emotional abuse. Much of the evidence lies beneath the skin, but some is visible in the way of scars. Each produces mixed emotions for the young gun, as each purchases some bragging rights, yet all are a reminder of a time Sid failed.

Handsome Devil - He's arrogant, he's wild, he's spiteful, and he rocks a serious bod and a handsome mug to make all that go down easy.

Smoking Is Cool - Sid is frequently seen with a trademark self-wrapped cigarillo clasped between his lips, sometimes unlit. People who live "the life", like his father, take to all manner of bad habits, since being a mercenary has a pretty short life expectancy. Sid learned to love tobacco at a young age, and shows no signs of quitting.

PERSONALITY

Berserk Button - KB is always kind of a [CENSORED], but he only loses his cool in a handful of situations. Failing a shot or being teased for his poor aim will set him off. But hurting or threatening those he cares about brings him to a new level of pissed off.

Good Is Not Nice - Kid Ballistic is not the nicest person at first blush. Or second and third blush.

Jerk With A Heart Of Gold - Deep down, KB really does have a charitable streak. He has a soft spot for children, enjoys teaching and making things for others. Despite everything he says and does, the boy cares deeply about his friends, and would kill or even die for them without hesitation.

Jerkass Has A Point - No matter how arrogant or insufferable he can be, he's been around the block, and his adaptive mind often finds solutions others never thought of.

Trigger Happy - If he's standing still, you can bet he wants to be moving. And if his guns are holstered, you can bet he's trying to find an excuse to whip 'em out.

MORALITY AND PHILOSOPHY

Combat Pragmatist - For all the fun and games, Kid Ballistic knows the score better than most. Combat is a matter of life and death, and while Sid certainly loves to flirt with the Reaper, he knows that one must employ any and all advantages to keep that relationship a distant one. Sid doesn't fight fair, he doesn't believe in honor, and despite his new profession, he struggles with mercy at times.

Crazy Prepared - KB always shows up to a situation packing heat, and a lot of it. Does he use it all? He tries his damndest. He has weapons caches all around the city, crates of weapons and ammo at home, and plenty of hidden goodies on his person. It's not just training; Sid almost needs to be armed. From an early age, he came to see the world as a scary and threatening place. His father taught him that the only way to survive was to also be scary and threatening.

Mr. Vice Guy - Sidney approaches life with a deep-seated hedonism. Of sorts. Though he endures a lot of pain, much of his actions relate to the chase of pleasure or comfort. Adrenaline, gunsmoke, liquor, food, money, women, etc. It's all on the menu, and Sid wants it all. These only serve to obscure the better self Sid has hidden somewhere, and at times, the want for something pure or more fulfilling rears its head.

COMBAT

Badass Normal and Superhero Packing Heat - KB's skills and talents go beyond the ken of mortal men. Well, OK - normal men. Part of that is innate badassery, part of it is intense training, and part of is an arsenal worthy of most 80s action flicks.

Bottomless Magazines - Sometimes he never seems to run out. Sometimes there are never enough.

Disarm, Disassemble, Destroy - Kid Ballistic can take apart most firearms and explosives in seconds, sometimes quicker if you don't need every piece. Sometimes, he'll do this to his enemy's weapons as well.

Guns Akimbo - When you need quantity over quality, two pistols are the way to go. And KB always uses two.

Made Of Iron - He's 18, and he drinks like a fish, smokes like a factory, and sleeps like an junkie. His bones have been broken, he's been shot, he's been concussed. And still he marches on.

No Range Like Point-Blank Range - He knows a few martial arts moves. He carries a knife. Doesn't matter. If you try to close distance with him, you will still get shot. "Multiple" doesn't even begin to describe how many times.

Quick Draw - He may not be accurate, but he is a quick handed [CENSORED]. Try him.

Trick Bullet - The essence of KB's crimefighting. He uses more custom, non-lethal ammunition than the standard. And it still feels good.

QUIRKS

Cigar-Fuse Lighting - When he gets the opportunity to work with classic fused explosives, he doesn't waste it. This is how you light explosives.

Firing In The Air A Lot - What better way to celebrate a victory? Start a race? Get the bartender's attention?

Gun Twirling - What self-respecting gunslinger doesn't do this on a regular basis? Nevermind that it's not entirely safe!

More Dakka - Kid Ballistic doesn't savor the shot like a sniper. He rides a wave of automatic fire until his hands are numb and his ears are ringing.

Smoking Barrel Blowout - Another obligatory gunslinger move. He actually engineers his ammunition to produce more smoke just so he can do this.

BACKGROUND

Child Soldier - Raised from birth to be a mercenary, Sidney boasts incredible skill and know-how with weapons. He also has trouble living any other way.

Parental Abandonment - Though he downplays it, Sid is undoubtedly affected by his lack of parentage. He never knew his mother, and the sudden departure of his father was traumatic, to say the least. The jury's still out on whether he'll cope. You know, besides filling the void with booze and bullets.

Socially-Awkward Hero - KB can be an odd duck. Being raised in foreign lands by his father didn't nurture all the social cues and graces that most people get in the States. Or culture in general.

MOTIVATIONS

Allergic To Routine - Kid Ballistic does what he wants, when he wants. So when he has to keep doing the same thing, or worse, do nothing, he gets...itchy.

In Harms Way - Becoming a superhero is about the only thing that could compare to being a soldier of fortune. Sid couldn't do anything else. Without the thrills, the excitement, and the threat of death or grievous injury, it just isn't worth doing.

Anything That Moves - Sid is known as something of a lady-chaser. It's rare that he goes without some kind of come on or ploy when meeting a new female.

POSSESSIONS

Bulletproof Vest - A necessity. The only thing keeping his fickle friend, the bullet, from finding its way back to his heart. That, and his undeniable charm.

Wall of Weapons and Where Does He Get All Those Wonderful Toys? - KB's hideout is packed with weapons and ammo. Some are on display, many are hidden in crates and panels and pipes and drawers and floorboards. One wonders where and how someone his age gets his hands on hundreds of pounds of Semtex. A close second is "Why does someone your age have hundreds of pounds of Semtex!?"

I Call it "Vera" - Just about each and every weapon in Kid Ballistic's arsenal has an affectionate name. Most are named for starlets of classic film, or famous female singers of jazz, mowtown, or pop.

PROFESSION

Heroic Fatigue - He's more likely to feel this after long hours of preparation, smithing, inventing, patrol, etc. KB has a penchant for long-hours and putting off sleep as long as he can. He almost seems to enjoy it.

Muscles Are Meaningless - Ballistic's in great shape, but there are hordes of those stronger and tougher than him. And he takes those people down on a regular basis.

Post-Victory Collapse - KB usually makes it home first, but almost every battle pushes him to his limits, being a normal human and all. Adrenaline's a hell of a drug, and the come-down is a hard one.

Young Gun - While remarkable for his age, it's remarkably obvious that KB's still got a lot to learn. He is usually outmatched by other heroes who do the same thing he does.

RELATIONSHIPS

Parental Abandonment - Sidney grew up without knowing his mother, and assumes she left him and his father alone. Then his father left too, leaving the boy entirely without a family. Needless to say, it's screwed with him ever since.

Family of Choice- Since falling in with the Progeny, Sid has come to view the team as his true family. They bring the best out of him and help keep him in check when he's at his worst.

Like Brother and Sister - Olevia Alvarez a.k.a. Lash has become something of a sister to the young gun, helping him in everything from fashion to romance. In turn, Sid seems to at least try to curtail her air-headedness, and sometimes dotes on the fashionista with a pocket full of cash.

Battle Couple - Erin Reyes a.k.a. Faith has become a close companion, passionate paramour, and partner in crimefighting since the two began their relationship. Death-defying battles, terrible losses, and excruciating pain have forged their bonds even stronger, making them effective in combat, and deeply appreciative of every moment they get to share when not fighting the good fight.

ROLEPLAYING HOOKS

Kid Ballistic is nefarious for collateral damage, needless noise, and mayhem. It's been on the news, and if you're anywhere near Westside, you've probably heard it, or seen it up close.

Kid Ballistic has been all around the world. He knows a mess of foreign language and customs. He misses traveling sometimes, and will often talk about the places he's been or the adventures he's been on.

If you've been paying attention, you know that Kid Ballistic is well-armed. He loves to talk about his arsenal.

KB was a regular at Darren's Pizza in City Center, before he was banned, due to shootout in the restaurant with the Russian Mafia.

Sid frequents a few record stores in Westside. He spends hours sampling records, usually before buying just one.

Cigarettes and coffee make a volatile fuel for his long hours at the worktable, or on patrol. When he must do research or online orders, he can be found in any coffee shop with wi-fi.

Sid and his wife, Erin, while not entirely inseparable, are near constant companions both on and off duty. Dealing with one generally means meeting the other. Messing with one definitely means messing with the other.

Kid Ballistic is, in fact, responsible for the death of the supervillain Killshot, and received his first commendations from both PRIMUS and UNTIL, as well as some measure of acclaim in the public eye for the encounter.

TRIVIA

Sid often talks to himself, and others, when absorbed in a task. He may start talking about something without even realizing what he's saying.

Nobody touches his guns. Nobody. If you're touching his guns, you're probably walking into a trap. He may really like you. Or he's dead...which means its probably a trap.

Kid Ballistic is obsessed with action films and westerns. His favorite movies are The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, Die-Hard, and Commando. Though lately, he's begun to expand his horizons.

KB listens to a lot of music. Rock 'n' Roll, Jazz, Metal, Opera, Electronica, etc. It isn't uncommon to hear him whistling some tune or other, and he may even sing when the mood takes him.

KB is an accomplished, albeit amateur dancer. Most of what he knows is learned from his favorite music videos, and his guilty pleasure: movie musicals. He is not, however, a good dance partner. Though there was this one time he had to learn ballroom dance for a job...

Sidney is a burgeoning connoisseur of whiskey, though he'll drink almost anything.

He had next to zero experience with girls growing up, and was never really taught how to act around them. So he reacts in one of two ways: he belittles them, or flirts hellaciously. At least, that was the case, until he started dating Faith. Now he only has eyes for the young Templar, and has since learned to be better behaved, if only marginally.

KB is ambidextrous. It was driven into him at such a young age, he barely remembers which hand used to be dominant.

KB doesn't care for video games, especially first-person shooters. Once you've done the real thing, the virtual comes up pretty short.

KB knows a smattering of foreign languages. He can communicate basic (or profane) ideas in Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, Russian, and Arabic. His Spanish and French is almost fluent.

KB, being new to the United States, knows comparatively little about it. Pop culture references and common knowledge often goes right over his head. Even after a few years, he's still learning the basics.

KB hates the bow and arrow. Guess what he thinks of archers?

KB hates telepathy even more.

Don't even get him started on magic.

KB is constantly experimenting with new ammunition or modifications to his weapons. These don't always go over well.

Sid's favorite season is Spring. He likes the rain. It's also mating season.

The Boy in Blue is finally a registered superhero via ASPRA! He also has a real Michigan State Driver's License! He's goin' legit!

The Protectors and Progeny are getting their very own (mock) Heroclix Sets! Here are Kid Ballistic's card and dial!

+Sidney Mason was raised from birth to be a mercenary, like his father, Marcus. Trained rigorously, tested constantly, the boy was subjected to a world of pain and harsh lessons, receiving very little in the way of a normal childhood. He grew up fast, as fast as his father could push him, in order to harden him against the dangers of the world.
-<P ALIGN="center">Let's picture Kid Ballistic for a moment.</P>
+But Marcus' patience was tried as the boy grew older. Naturally, Sidney tried to assert his own identity, rather than the one Marcus demanded. His impulsive and intuitive nature was a constant foil to his methodical and calculating father. The boy latched on to spaghetti westerns and eighties action films for any shred of escape or romance he could get. He became a loose cannon: twirling his weapons, firing them wildly during a firefight, or spitting one-liners at his enemies instead of shooting them. The teenager’s training suffered, and a rift developed between the father and son duo.
-[[File:KBBust.jpg|200px|center|link=]]
+That rift became a yawning chasm as one day, Marcus left his son on his own. At the age of fifteen, Sidney was alone with his father’s weapons and his money, but none of his guidance. The boy went looking for “the Boss”, in a panic. He pulled on every string his father had shown him, utilized every contact. He thought it was the latest of Marcus’ tests. But after a year and a half of searching, there was no trace.
-<P ALIGN="center">''Wow''. What a man. Look at that body! Sixteen years old and he looks like a '''star athlete'''. Maybe even a model. A model with guns and an orange-blue costume. Look how that thing fits him. And that hair? Black as the raven and just as mysterious, ladies. Who wouldn't want to ride with this guy into the sunset?</P>
+There was only one way to skin it: Sidney had been abandoned.
+Despite all his skill, and the war chest his father had accrued over the years, Sid was mortified at the idea of going it alone. Sidney decided he wasn’t meant for this life after all. Why else would his father leave if not out of disappointment? The youth instead returned to Millennium City, the place of his birth. Though he languished in hedonistic pursuits for the first few months, Sid soon craved the danger and thrill of his former profession. He found it in superheroics.
-<P ALIGN="center">The outfit is a combination of '''Kevlar armor, ceramic components, leather, and Spandex'''. Trendy and rugged; safe and stylish. Despite being skin-tight in many places, it still manages to sport pockets and pouches to store away all kinds of ordinance.</P>
+Utilizing his killer instinct, and his great skill with weapons, the boy took to the streets of Millennium City as Kid Ballistic! Though he remains a wild, often destructive force, Sid has since proven to be a force for good as well, albeit a loud one.
+<br>
+='''<div style="font-size:26px; color:#EC863E; background-color: #1a3b71">APPEARANCE [[File:KBJollyBomberTransparent.png|right|65px|link=]]<br><br></div>'''=
-<P ALIGN="center">He doesn't have any tattoos or piercings (does shrapnel count?), but he's got a few scars. Most of them are small, the fond memories of '''firefights, car bombs, and hours of gunsmithing'''. He does have a rather long scar that runs along his forearm; he's particularly proud of that one.</P>
+[[File:KBshamsergFingerGun.png|300px|left|link=]]
+Kid Ballistic sashays around Millennium City, wearing a black and blue-orange costume that is as loud as it is effective. On top of a temperature reactive body suit, the gunslinger wears a combination of Kevlar and Dragonskin for protection, though he usually goes without arm protection to improve mobility. Gun-stuffed leather holsters hug his legs, and a shotgun holster adorns the back of his ballistic vest, to say nothing of the handful(s) of hidden weapons on his person. His combat boots are thick leather and sturdy boron-carbide that protect from his heels to his knees. Kid Ballistic's very own emblem, the "Jolly Bomber", smiles wickedly from his belt buckle.
-<P ALIGN="center">If KB had a cologne patterned after his scent, it'd be called "Big Iron" and it'd smell like gunsmoke, sweat, and kerosene. He wears it everyday, but it's not for everyone. It usually doesn't outright repulse others. Usually.</P>
+Whether costumed or not, Sidney Mason is a strapping young man with fair skin, dark blue eyes, and raven black hair. He possesses the body of an athlete, honed by years "on the road", and aided by Sid's ravenous metabolism, which burns away all signs of his atrocious diet. Scars can be found on just about every region of his body, particularly his hands. Of note are a former knife wound on the back of his right shoulder, the leftovers of a bullet entry wound on his upper right abdomen, and a nasty entry '''and''' exit wound on his lower left leg. Sidney is thankful that his face has so far remained relatively unblemished by combat.
+Though the young gun always favors going in uniform, he occasionally leaves his "Boom Cave" wearing "civvies". Most often he opts for a surprisingly fashionable (thanks to tips from his friend and teammate [[Lash]]) khaki pant and black V-Neck shirt, complete with "uncombat" boots and gray aviator sunglasses. Sidney never goes unarmed unless absolutely necessary, and even then, he does his best to smuggle actual or improvised weaponry into or past areas of high security when he can.
-<P ALIGN="center">Kid Ballistic carries himself (and his weapons) with energy and unerring confidence in his abilities. And it's not ''all'' bravado. He's very '''comfortable with his deadly weapons'''. Some might say he's ''too'' comfortable, but those people need to grow a spine, some balls, and thicker skin. Outside of combat, KB likes to play it cool. He lounges and leans like the coolest of cats, evoking imagery of the '''modern cowboy'''; thumbs hooked in his belt, a smoke or a piece of gum in his mouth. Sometimes he'll listen to music, dance to himself, whistle, etc.</P>
+='''<div style="font-size:26px; color:#EC863E; background-color: #1a3b71">PERSONALITY [[File:KBJollyBomberTransparent.png|right|65px|link=]]<br><br></div>'''=
-<P ALIGN="center">But that air of relaxation tends to decay into what he calls '''"The Itch"'''. It happens whenever he's anticipating a mission, or when he hasn't fired his weapon for extended periods of time. At this time, he'll start tapping his foot, he'll start pacing, clicking his fingers on the butt of his pistols. He'll check and recheck his equipment, do a little gun twirling, do ''a lot'' of gun twirling, and even exercise if it comes to that.</P>
-<P ALIGN="center">In combat, the young gun is vigorous in pursuit of '''ballistic excellence'''. He can keep it in his pants until necessary, but once he let's loose, opinions of his behavior rate on a scale from ''wild'' to ''insane''. The heat of battle is euphoric for KB. He'll cackle wildly, and sometimes he dances before, after, or ''during'' a shot. It's good fun for him a handful of others. '''For most, it's annoying. Or terrifying'''. ''I'' don't know what the big deal is.</P>

+Kid Ballistic is renown (and perhaps infamous) for his wildcat approach to crimefighting. Though tactically sharper than most superheroes his age, he regularly neglects his training for the thrills of the job. During combat, the boy in blue will fight with barely constrained, devilish enthusiasm, cackling or crying out in celebration as he unloads magazines of ammo at his enemies. In a fashion that can only be described as sensual, Sidney enjoys battle, when it is going well. The vibrations of automatic weapons fire, the tremors of a grenade detonating, the smell of gunsmoke; Sidney can't get enough. To him, they are as beautiful as works of art. This high can lead to reckless gunplay and careless use of explosives, more often than not leading to collateral damage. Sid, if he acknowledges it at all, dismisses his path of destruction as "part of the job". One might suspect that he enjoys it more than a "hero" should.
-<P ALIGN="center">Kid Ballistic is a man of many talents. '''Gunsmithing, urban warfare, demolitions, dance'''. He gained these skills traveling the world with his father (more on that later). Well, all except for dance: great dancers are born, not made.</P>
+There are times when the young gun's training comes to the fore, and Kid Ballistic shows himself to be clever, inventive, and even disciplined. For his age, the superhero has been through a remarkable amount of stress and punishment. If he isn't on cloud nine, guns blazing, Sid can be counted on to pursue an objective with a clear head, even restraint. But these moments are few and far between; Sid would rather enjoy his moments of controlled chaos, and let everyone and everything else sort itself out. Sid's focus is usually brought out by his time spent preparing and maintaining his weapons, stocking his hideouts, and constructing his inventions.
+The young hero carries himself with a swagger and confidence that smacks of spaghetti western heroes. He would probably wear spurs if it wouldn't be so impractical. Some of this is a well-earned surety developed by years of training and successful missions. However, beneath the surface, there lies a powerful fear of failure and abandonment. So much of what others see is bravado, an overcompensation for what Sid perceives as weakness. After all, in the "real world", weakness gets you killed. This mentality proves difficult in building trust or relationships of any depth, at least at first.
-<P ALIGN="center">First, let's get to the man before we talk about his equipment (patience, ladies). KB believes in staying in shape. His time in foreign lands (so, you know, his whole life) demanded a '''strong, healthy body'''. KB's got half of that covered. His days are filled with a '''strict conditioning regimen''', as well as hours of rigorous exercise in the field. He needs it for survival...and because he drinks bourbon whiskey, eats whatever he wants, and sleeps when he wants. Yin and yang, right?</p>
+Despite the killer instinct instilled by his father, and the deep seated fears of a child who grew up far too fast, Sid manages to have a good heart. When he finally allows himself to make lasting attachments, he rabidly defends them. His callous attitude and hard-edged philosophy softens on occasion, showing a generous and caring individual. Which side of the young gun wins out in the end, only time will tell.

-<div style="font-size:12px;color:#000000;"><center>''Ah, harmony.''</center></div>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Quickdraw'''</font> Whether from his holster, an enemy’s holster, or a nearby surface, Sidney can arm himself in literally the blink of an eye. Currently, he clocks his quickdraw at 25-30 milliseconds, which is very near the world record.
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Weaponsmithing'''</font> Perhaps Sidney’s most prodigious skill, Sidney’s ability to assemble, modify, and invent firearms and ammunition keeps Kid Ballistic ahead of the curve.
-<P ALIGN="center">KB's got a '''brain like a bullet'''. And that's not a cheap attempt to keep ramrodding gun references and metaphors into this thing. Honest. It's like a bullet because it's just ''begging'' for the inspiration to move, it's explosive, and it gets sharper the faster it goes. See, that wasn't that bad, was it? I'm kind of proud of that one.</p>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Improvised Weaponry'''</font> In a pinch, and especially with preparation, Sidney can turn all sorts of things into a weapon. Molotov cocktails, zip guns, pipe-bombs, and even fireworks have been used by the Boy in Blue when conventional weapons were not available.
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Conventional Firearms Expert'''</font> Through his years of experience, Sid has developed great know-how with modern (and some not-so modern) firearms. If it has widespread usage, you can bet Sid can take it apart, put it back together, and operate it.
-<P ALIGN="center">Kid Ballistic is a creative, passionate sort. He doesn't have a mind for strategy, memorization, and goal-oriented decision making. But he ''is'' '''adaptive, innovative, spontaneous, and quick'''. He's very good at overwhelming his enemies not only in gunfire, but distraction and diversion. He has a talent for improvised weaponry and experimental tactics, making him a superb guerrilla combatant.</p>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Demolitions Expert'''</font> Sid is proficient with most forms of explosives, from hand grenades, to missiles, to Semtex. He can disarm all manner of mines and bombs, and has a working catalog of creative ways to arm, detonate, or deliver all kinds of explosives.
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Physical Fitness'''</font> Gifted with a high metabolism, and having been pushed to his limits since birth, Sid sports an exemplary physical conditioning, despite his atrocious diet and drinking habits.
-<div style="font-size:18px;color:#000000;"><center>Weapons</center></div>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''High Pain Threshold'''</font> Sid has been trained to resist pain, both in battle and interrogation. He’s also withstood years of pain that most his age could never dream of. Thus, the teenager can continue fighting despite suffering injury. The adrenaline gained during battle only enhances this quality. So does whiskey.
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Killer Instinct'''</font> Kid Ballistic’s training centers around lethal force. Though the young hero invests heavily in less-than-lethal means, at his core, he still operates on a kill-or-be-killed basis, and he takes to combat with little to no hesitation, keeping his head in the game when others his age would falter.
-<P ALIGN="center">When you get down to it, Ballistic's heroic methodology rests on '''[CENSORED]''' his enemy with as many bullets and bombs as possible, and to do it all with style. His payload is precious, and mustn't be wasted by cruel efficiency or impeccable aim. '''Excess is the best!''' And speaking of excess, KB has more weapons at his disposal than any one 16 year old without a high school diploma has any business owning. His entire hideout (and several other, sometimes ''public'' locations) is stocked with ordinance. But KB doesn't just use any old gun. Some he knows to be reliable, and some he just plain loves. So, let the gun porn commence!</P>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Mercenary Training'''</font> Sid’s father trained him to be ready for all manner of situations. His repertoire includes wilderness survival, offensive driving, small-unit tactics, smuggling techniques, foreign languages, and the art of bargaining, to name a few.

 Kid Ballistic doesn't savor melee combat. That shouldn't be a surprise. Not that he's afraid or unable to fight, it's just no fun. Besides, point-blank range is his playground. But when he simply can't fire a weapon or use an explosive, his fists and this knife are his back-up. It also makes for a great tool in a pinch.

+A gift from Warhound, who has become a mentor of sorts to the young gun, the 39-09 Ordinanza is a restyling of the ''paracadutista assaltatore'', or assault paratrooper, knives carried by Italian paratroopers as far back as 1939. The paratroopers would wear the daggers in their boots, which suits Kid Ballistic just fine. The knife is a sturdy, black-oxide coated blade with a forprene handle, and sports the Italian Special Forces seal of approval. It makes for a deadlier blade for when Sidney is ''forced'' to forgo his namesake in close-quarters.

+<font color=1a3b71>'''The Boom Cave'''</font> Kid Ballistic's home and base of operations. The Boom Cave is a highly renovated and retrofitted basement that Sidney uses to store and fabricate his weaponry. It is highly soundproofed, so as not to disturb the owners upstairs, an elderly couple from whom he rents. He also takes out their garbage on occasion. The Cave has a suite of machine tools, several workbenches, and a weapons cache just daring the ATF to investigate. Up until recently, the Cave has also been his home, furnished with simple folding chairs and an old naval cot.
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Safe Houses & Weapons Caches'''</font> Spread around Millennium City and its outskirts, Sid has a few well-placed stores of weapons, ammo, first aid, and replacement costumes in case of emergency. Many are simply storage units, while some are cleverly hidden. Sidney also manages spots around the city that act as safe houses: hotel rooms, studio apartments, or abandoned buildings to use as pit stops, hiding places, or emergency headquarters in times of crisis.
-<div style="font-size:18px;color:#000000;"><center>Weaknesses</center></div>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''"The Range"'''</font> Among the ruins of western Millennium City, Sidney has staked out a couple spots for business and pleasure. One of these is a nondescript street, surrounded by crumbled buildings and half-buried in rubble. Sidney often uses this area as a firing range and testing ground for his weapons and special ammo. Mostly, he uses glass bottles and soda cans as targets, but sometimes he gets more creative.
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Erin Reyes' Apartment'''</font> As a burgeoning Templar, Faith was set up with a small, one bedroom apartment in West Side. Since beginning their romance with one another, Sid has found himself in the spartan domicile more and more often. He loves the grime and grit of the Boom Cave, but it's hard to deny a ''real'' bed and shower; to say nothing of the company. A spare costume, spare clothes, and a few hidden weapons make it feel all the more like home. However, the events of early 2018 destroyed this apartment, and the Masons have since moved on.
-<P ALIGN="center">OK, we all saw this coming. Let's get it out of the way: '''Kid Ballistic is not perfect'''. He's not even close.</P>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''The Masons' Apartment'''</font> After Erin's apartment was destroyed in the volcanic uprising of Avernus and his minions, the newly married couple sought a new place to call home. The ''first'' place to call home, in fact. After much deliberation and searching, Sid & Erin found an apartment hiding in plain sight: the garage KB and [[Ace]] used to work on the Buster! Above the auto shop was an old, dilapidated flat, with chipped paint, dust and cobwebs galore, and spotty plumbing. But a fixer-upper seemed the perfect thing for these two warriors, and with some diligence they've managed to fashion a modest, but beautiful little home in West Side. Part of the renovations naturally included places for their weapons and costumes, as well as upgraded security measures, a surround sound speaker system, and newly finished hardwood floors.
+='''<div style="font-size:26px; color:#EC863E; background-color: #1a3b71">WEAKNESSES [[File:KBJollyBomberTransparent.png|right|65px|link=]]<br><br>'''</div>=
-<P ALIGN="center">God, did I just say that? Don't worry people, it's all under control. Who wants perfection anyway? It's shiny and...well actually it doesn't exist so it isn't anything. Unless you consider concepts to be a real thing. How can something imaginary be real? How do you- OK your eyes are glazing, I get it. Moving on.</P>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Only Human'''</font> Sidney has been shot, stabbed, and nearly blown up on several occasions. Only training, tenacity, and dumb luck have saved him thus far, because a single mistake could cost him his very mortal, very squishy life.
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Only Eighteen'''</font> Of course, this young hero has been through a lot, and has a leg up over his peers when it comes to life-or-death situations, or the hard truths of the world. But no one has a monopoly on wisdom, and Sid is certainly still an adolescent, with no shortage of fears, insecurities, and character flaws that can be turned like knobs on control panel.
-<P ALIGN="center">KB's weaknesses aren't like those of other supers. Most of them are plain old human weaknesses. But they're worth stating for the record. Or whatever this is.</P>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Poor Aim'''</font> For all the bravado and all the training, Sidney is a mediocre marksman at best. He makes up for it with rapid fire and high yield. But in situations that call for a well-placed shot, he is likely to fail.
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Collateral Damage'''</font> Kid Ballistic’s approach to combat is a symphony of bullets and bombs. Plenty can go wrong. Innocent bystanders (or fellow heroes) may get caught in the crossfire, and structures may collapse or go up in flames as a result.
-<P ALIGN="center">So, KB's human. He's tough and willful, but has dem limits tho. He's got to eat, sleep, and socialize like any good animal. Ah! There's our first major weakness: KB's a jerk. He's '''brash, wild, and egotistical''', and generally doesn't care what others think. He's a show-off, and he handles deadly weapons as if they were toys. His bullet hole of a moral code is often a source of friction between him and his colleagues. So he '''doesn't play well with the other children'''. It also means he doesn't have many friends. If I have to explain why this is a weakness, I quit.</P>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Ballistic Temperament'''</font> Generally, Sid would rather shoot first, and ask questions later. He can be suspicious, even paranoid of strangers. He can also have a short temper, depending on his mood and which buttons are pushed. This makes Sid dangerous to his enemies, and perhaps dangerous to his friends.
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Kiloton Ego'''</font> A combination of real skill and invented notions, Sid’s belief in himself seems to know no bounds. Normally confidence is a strength, but when it leads one to show off or boast in the midst of battle, it can quickly become a liability. It also makes Kid Ballistic difficult to deal with outside of combat.
-<P ALIGN="center">On to more functional problems. Kid Ballistic may be a gunslinger. He may even be a quick draw. '''But he's no deadeye'''. His accuracy with firearms is above average...when he doesn't move, takes his time, and focuses. So most days, his marksmanship is average to terrible. He makes up for it with quantity, but when you need the shot to be just right, KB falls short, and knows it. It eats at him, this reputation as a '''gunslinger without aim''', so any criticism in this ballpark really does not go over well.</P>
+<font color=1a3b71>'''Outlaw'''</font> Despite having committed to a life of crimefighting, much of Sid’s old habits have persisted, and the boy skirts the law in all kinds of ways. Underage drinking and smoking, refusing to register as a superhero, and illegal weapons shipments are just a few ways he remains dirty in the eyes of the law. Sometimes he feels it’s justified. Other times he breaks the law just for fun.
+='''<div style="font-size:26px; color:#EC863E; background-color: #1a3b71">ALLIES [[File:KBJollyBomberTransparent.png|right|65px|link=]]<br><br>'''</div>=
-<P ALIGN="center">Beyond that, KB isn't your usual gun nut. He's '''proficient with guns, but he isn't encyclopedic'''. He knows his equipment intuitively and based on experience. Ask him technical questions, he isn't always going to know the answer. Sometimes this translates to problems. Not understanding the intricacies and details of deadly weapons tends to do that. So far, he's been just careful enough to not harm anyone but himself. But when you're a line-stepper, you're always at risk of losing balance.</P>

-<P ALIGN="center">At the age of 14, Sid could improvise explosives from home chemicals. He could field strip a gun in seconds. And he had acquired a taste for the shake, rattle and roll of automatic weapons fire. Sid was now a full-fledged partner to his father. Despite his tendency for '''excess''' (a.k.a. the perfect amount) and '''overkill''' (Sid's favorite kind of kill), he seemed essential to the family enterprise. Sid was his father's quartermaster and his backup. And never was he more needed than when Marcus' needed a diversion. That is, until '''the bastard left'''.</P>

-<P ALIGN="center">Now here's where I let you in on a secret (unless you actually ''read'' the "Weaknesses" section): Sid has never been the best shot. His father, however, always was a deadeye, and more or less an expert when it came to firearms. Sid was a quick learner but never had the discipline that Marcus possessed. Young KB was driven to somehow meet those expectations. To get the job done, he turned to quantity over quality, fielding tenacity, style, and ''a lot'' of bullets. '''Sid had a gift for passion, not pragmatism'''. As he grew into a young man, Marcus must have grown tired of his talents, or lack thereof. Because he left.</P>
+<div style="position:absolute; left:0px;bottom:0px; width:100%; padding-top:7px; padding-bottom:3px; background:#1a3b71; text-align:right"><center><span style="color:#B05B32; letter-spacing:.3em; padding-right:10px; text-transform:uppercase">'''WANTED'''</span></center></div>
+</div>
-<P ALIGN="center">At first, Sid was angry. Then he was ''pissed''. He searched the world for the better part of a year, calling all of his training to the fore and tapping every contact he could. But Marcus was gone. Part of him had hoped it was a test, but even after failing, there was no reprisal, and no return. So what next?</P>
-<P ALIGN="center">Sid knew the demands of the life. And he wasn't so sure he could do it alone. In fact, he was pretty sure he would screw it up. His father seemed to think so. In a decision pretty much bankrupt of all pride and guts, proto-KB gathered his belongings and stacks of cash to smuggle them and himself into the '''United States.'''</P>
-<P ALIGN="center">Why, do you ask? It was all he had left. Maybe he'd meet his grandfather, or finally figure out who his mother was. Or, maybe he'd spend his money on '''booze and inordinate amounts of ordinance.''' I mean, can you blame him? Unemployed, filthy rich, and high on American life for the first time? His life became one big party, unshackled to the demands of his former life. "Wild" doesn't begin to explain it. So, a moment of silence for all the liquor bottles, put to death by one-man firing squad.</P>

-<div style="font-size:12px;color:#000000;"><center>''We hardly knew ye.''</center></div>
-<P ALIGN="center">But his first love came back to him in a dream, and he awoke, hungover on his couch, embracing a belt of grenades. I'm betting most of you would take this as a sign to quit the booze. Interesting. Sid didn't see it that way. '''The Itch''' was back: it was the '''freedom, the firepower''', and the style of his childhood calling for him. And if he wasn't going to be a mercenary, there was another profession that offered all three.</P>
-<P ALIGN="center">Making the leap from washed-up mercenary to superhero was not difficult for Sidney. He already had the equipment, the hideout, and the training. He didn't have much of a secret identity to protect, but he fashioned an alter ego anyways. Take that, logic! Sid conjured Kid Ballistic from his upbringing, distilling that aforementioned American education down to a '''rugged, stylish, gun-toting, bomb-throwing superhero.'''</P>
-[[File:KBPistols.jpg|200px|center|link=]]
-<P ALIGN="center">Kid Ballistic has enjoyed a successful career so far. Criminals often underestimate him on account of his age, and most don't hold a candle to the baddies Sid took on during his mercenary days. Sure, he blows up a few too many minivans, and fires a few too many bullets. But that's what walls are for! And it's not like there were any kids in those ugly minivans. He's confident people will come around. With enough spectacle and bullets, anything is possible!</P>

-<P ALIGN="center">Quicksable is a speedster working for the one thing in this world that matters: '''power'''. Money and fame are but a means to that end, but he ultimately cares for neither. Unlike many of his ilk, this speedster is '''calculating and patient''', rarely rushing into a situation until its called for. And while he may never be the fastest, he more than makes up for it by being cold-blooded, power-hungry, and unswerving in his path to glory.</P>
-<P ALIGN="center">Quicksable is something of a '''dark reflection of Kid Ballistic''': he's young, but skilled, dangerous, and undiminished by his adult competitors. But where KB maintains something resembling a moral code (mostly for appearances), Quicksable throws it all out the window, and does exactly what he needs to do in order to survive, profit, or eliminate his adversaries. He poses a significant challenge for Kid Ballistic, being able to outwit and elude all but the most skilled of shooters. Despite KB's quick hands, he's no match for Quicksable's speed, and must rely on his wits and creativity to stop him.</P>
-<P ALIGN="center">The Sable Speedster's powers all result from his incredible control over velocity. He '''thinks, runs, and fights at a superhuman rate'''. He can spin his body to '''create gusts of wind''', and vibrate portions of his body to '''destroy weapons, locks, or the armor of an unlucky foe'''.</P>

+==<font color=#1a3b71>'''APPEARANCE'''</font>==
-<P ALIGN="center">''These Boots Are Made For Walkin''' | '''Nancy Sinatra'''</P>
+* '''Every Scar Has A Story''' - For the youngster that he is, Kid Ballistic has endured much in the way of physical and emotional abuse. Much of the evidence lies beneath the skin, but some is visible in the way of scars. Each produces mixed emotions for the young gun, as each purchases some bragging rights, yet all are a reminder of a time Sid failed.
-<P ALIGN="center">''T.N.T.'' | '''AC/DC'''</P>
+* '''Handsome Devil''' - He's arrogant, he's wild, he's spiteful, and he rocks a serious bod and a handsome mug to make all that go down easy.
-<P ALIGN="center">''Libiamo ne' lieti calici'' | '''Francesco Maria Piave'''</P>
+* '''Smoking Is Cool''' - Sid is frequently seen with a trademark self-wrapped cigarillo clasped between his lips, sometimes unlit. People who live "the life", like his father, take to all manner of bad habits, since being a mercenary has a pretty short life expectancy. Sid learned to love tobacco at a young age, and shows no signs of quitting.
-<P ALIGN="center">''(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)'' | '''Beastie Boys'''</P>
+==<font color=#1a3b71>'''PERSONALITY'''</font>==
-<P ALIGN="center">''Turn Blue'' | '''The Black Keys'''</P>
+* '''Berserk Button''' - KB is always kind of a '''[CENSORED]''', but he only loses his cool in a handful of situations. Failing a shot or being teased for his poor aim will set him off. But hurting or threatening those he cares about brings him to a new level of pissed off.
-<P ALIGN="center">''I Don't Wanna Set The World On Fire'' | '''The Ink Spots'''</P>
+* '''Good Is Not Nice''' - Kid Ballistic is not the nicest person at first blush. Or second and third blush.
-<P ALIGN="center">''Anything Goes'' | '''Cole Porter'''</P>
+* '''Jerk With A Heart Of Gold''' - Deep down, KB really does have a charitable streak. He has a soft spot for children, enjoys teaching and making things for others. Despite everything he says and does, the boy cares deeply about his friends, and would kill or even die for them without hesitation.
-<P ALIGN="center">''Sexy and I Know It'' | '''LMFAO'''</P>
+* '''Jerkass Has A Point''' - No matter how arrogant or insufferable he can be, he's been around the block, and his adaptive mind often finds solutions others never thought of.
-<P ALIGN="center">''Weapon Of Choice'' | '''Fatboy Slim'''</P>
+* '''Trigger Happy''' - If he's standing still, you can bet he wants to be moving. And if his guns are holstered, you can bet he's trying to find an excuse to whip 'em out.
-<P ALIGN="center">''The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly'' | '''Ennio Morricone'''</P>
+==<font color=#1a3b71>'''MORALITY AND PHILOSOPHY'''</font>==
-<P ALIGN="center">''1812 Overture'' | '''Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky'''</P>
+[[File:KBWallOWeaponsRound.png|400px|right|link=]]
-<P ALIGN="center">''Cum On Feel The Noize'' | '''Quiet Riot'''</P>
+* '''Combat Pragmatist''' - For all the fun and games, Kid Ballistic knows the score better than most. Combat is a matter of life and death, and while Sid certainly loves to flirt with the Reaper, he knows that one must employ any and all advantages to keep that relationship a distant one. Sid doesn't fight fair, he doesn't believe in honor, and despite his new profession, he struggles with mercy at times.

+* '''Crazy Prepared''' - KB always shows up to a situation packing heat, and a lot of it. Does he use it all? He tries his damndest. He has weapons caches all around the city, crates of weapons and ammo at home, and plenty of hidden goodies on his person. It's not just training; Sid almost ''needs'' to be armed. From an early age, he came to see the world as a scary and threatening place. His father taught him that the only way to survive was to also be scary and threatening.
+* '''Mr. Vice Guy''' - Sidney approaches life with a deep-seated hedonism. Of sorts. Though he endures a lot of pain, much of his actions relate to the chase of pleasure or comfort. Adrenaline, gunsmoke, liquor, food, money, women, etc. It's all on the menu, and Sid wants it all. These only serve to obscure the better self Sid has hidden somewhere, and at times, the want for something pure or more fulfilling rears its head.

-* '''Allergic To Routine''' - Kid Ballistic does what he wants, when he wants. So when he has to keep doing the same thing, or worse, do ''nothing'', he gets...itchy.
-* '''Badass Normal''' and '''Superhero Packing Heat''' - KB's skills and talents go beyond the ken of mortal men. Well, OK - ''normal'' men. Part of that is innate badassery, part of it is intense training, and part of is an arsenal worthy of most 80s action flicks.
-* '''Berserk Button''' - KB is always kind of a '''[CENSORED]''', but he only ''really'' gets angry at two things: failing a shot, and getting teased for his poor aim.
-* '''Bottomless Magazines''' - Sometimes he never seems to run out. Sometimes there are never enough.
 * '''Bulletproof Vest''' - A necessity. The only thing keeping his fickle friend, the bullet, from finding its way back to his heart. That, and his undeniable charm.
-* '''Crazy Prepared''' - KB always shows up to a situation packing heat, and a lot of it. Does he use it all? He tries his damndest. He has weapons caches all around the city, crates of weapons and ammo at home, and plenty of hidden goodies on his person.
+* '''Wall of Weapons''' and '''Where Does He Get All Those Wonderful Toys?''' - KB's hideout is ''packed'' with weapons and ammo. Some are on display, many are hidden in crates and panels and pipes and drawers and floorboards. One wonders where and how someone his age gets his hands on hundreds of pounds of Semtex. A close second is ''"'''Why''' does someone your age have hundreds of pounds of Semtex!?"''
-* '''Disarm, Disassemble, Destroy''' - Kid Ballistic can take apart most firearms and explosives in seconds, sometimes quicker if you don't need ''every'' piece. Sometimes, he'll do this to his enemy's weapons as well.
+* '''I Call it "Vera"''' - Just about each and every weapon in Kid Ballistic's arsenal has an affectionate name. Most are named for starlets of classic film, or famous female singers of jazz, mowtown, or pop.
-* '''Firing In The Air A Lot''' - What better way to celebrate a victory? Start a race? Get the bartender's attention?
+==<font color=#1a3b71>'''PROFESSION'''</font>==
-* '''Good Is Not Nice''' - Kid Ballistic is not the nicest person at first blush. Or second and third blush. Whatever that means.
-* '''Good Old Fisticuffs''' - KB hates it, but if he has nothing left, he'll square off with some basic boxing and Krav Maga techniques. He stands no chance against anyone well-trained in martial arts, but against your average opponent, its an advantage.
-* '''Gun Nut''' - This much should be obvious. He loves them. He cleans them. He holds them. He loves them again. They're the source of his greatest delight on Earth.
-* '''Gun Twirling''' - What self-respecting gunslinger doesn't do this on a regular basis? Nevermind that it's not entirely safe!
-* '''Guns Akimbo''' - When you need quantity over quality, two pistols are the way to go. And KB ''always'' uses two.
-* '''Handsome Devil''' - Despite his arrogant, wild, and spiteful attitude, KB's rockin' a serious bod and a handsome mug to boot.
 * '''Heroic Fatigue''' - He's more likely to feel this after long hours of preparation, smithing, inventing, patrol, etc. KB has a penchant for long-hours and putting off sleep as long as he can. He almost seems to enjoy it.
-* '''Jerkass Has A Point''' - No matter how arrogant or insufferable he can be, he's been around the block, and his adaptive mind often finds solutions others never thought of.
-* '''Jerk With A Heart Of Gold''' - Deep down, KB just wants approval and acceptance. He has a lot of respect for others, and even cares about a few, for whom he would do a great lot. Will he admit it? No. Will he show it? Don't count on it.
-* '''Made Of Iron''' - He's 17, and he drinks like a fish, smokes like a factory, and sleeps like an junkie. His bones have been broken, he's been shot, he's been concussed. And still he marches on.
-* '''More Dakka''' - Kid Ballistic doesn't savor the shot like a sniper. He rides a wave of automatic fire until his hands are numb and his ears are ringing.
 * '''Muscles Are Meaningless''' - Ballistic's in great shape, but there are hordes of those stronger and tougher than him. And he takes those people down on a regular basis.
-* '''No Range Like Point-Blank Range''' - He knows a few martial arts moves. He carries a knife. Doesn't matter. If you try to close distance with him, you will still get shot. "Multiple" doesn't even begin to describe how many times.
 * '''Post-Victory Collapse''' - KB usually makes it home first, but almost every battle pushes him to his limits, being a normal human and all. Adrenaline's a hell of a drug, and the come-down is a hard one.
-* '''Quick Draw''' - He may not be accurate, but he is a quick handed '''[CENSORED]'''. Try him.
-* '''Smoking Barrel Blowout''' - Another obligatory gunslinger move. He actually engineers his ammunition to produce more smoke just so he can do this.
-* '''Socially-Awkward Hero''' - KB can be an odd duck. Being raised in foreign lands by his father didn't nurture all the social cues and graces that most people get in the States. Or culture in general.
-* '''Trick Bullet''' - The essence of KB's crimefighting. He uses more custom, non-lethal ammunition than the standard. And it still feels good.
-* '''Trigger Happy''' - If he's standing still, you can bet he wants to be moving. And if his guns are holstered, you can bet he's trying to find an excuse to whip 'em out.
-* '''Wall of Weapons''' and '''Where Does He Get All Those Wonderful Toys?''' - KB's hideout is ''packed'' with weapons and ammo. Some are on display, many are hidden in crates and panels and pipes and drawers and floorboards. One wonders where and how someone his age gets his hands on hundreds of pounds of Semtex. A close second is ''"'''Why''' does someone your age have hundreds of pounds of Semtex!?"''
 * '''Young Gun''' - While remarkable for his age, it's remarkably obvious that KB's still got a lot to learn. He is usually outmatched by other heroes who do the same thing he does.

-<P ALIGN="center">Kid Ballistic is heavily inspired by the more mercenary, underworld, and wild side of comic book superheroes (and villains). Chief among them are '''Hit-Girl, Damian Wayne, Arsenal, and the Comedian'''. A lot of little pieces of his character or costume were inspired by the '''Punisher, Deathstroke the Terminator, and Deadpool'''. There's also, as with most of my characters, a lot of me in KB's character.</P>
-<P ALIGN="center">In a live-action adaptation of Kid Ballistic's adventures, he might be played by '''Grant Gustin''', of Flash and Glee fame. If he could put on some more muscle, cut the hair, and play a bad boy, I think he's got the chops and the look to do a pretty good KB. In animation, he'd look much the way he looks in the art commissioned below. His voice would be a deeper, but every bit as energetic performance by either '''Jason Spisak''' or '''Greg Cipes''', who voiced the Flash in Young Justice and Beast Boy in Teen Titans, respectively.</p>
