Rebel
Contents
Background:
Rebel hails from the Multifaria Dimension, an alternate Dimension to our own with many similarities yet remarkable differences at the same time. The ruthless Citizen Harmon rules Multifaria with a Questionite Fist, squashing any individuals with super powers on-sight with his Destroid Legions, or sending the other Conquerors to do it themselves. Despite this, a Resistance to his authority has been established, filled with super powered individuals and ordinary citizens alike, all willing to risk their lives to take back their world and end Harmon's villainous control. Rebel was raised by members of the Resistance, and learned from them how to survive in the cruel and desolate world he comes from.
Not long ago a group of Heroes from this Dimension arrived in Multifaria and was able to usurp Citizen Harmon from his seat of power, thus freeing the people of that World from his tyranny. The remaining Conquerors either fled or were killed in the ensuing battle, and the Destroid Army that kept order was destroyed. Surviving members of the Resistance rejoiced as their mission had been accomplished, having aided the visiting Heroes in their task, they were now responsible for rebuilding their world. Rebel was assigned to hunt down members of Citizen Harmon's Conquerors and capture them if possible, or execute them if not. Completing several Bounties on these villains, he began to find himself seeking a new challenge, and came to this Dimension to find it.
Appearance And Personality:
A ruggedly handsome man, Rebel is fond of the color purple, or more specifically, a dark violet hue of such. He dyes his hair, long twisted dredloks that reach down to his shoulders, this color as a sort of trademark, and also has many tribal tattoos done in the same color all over his body. His bright blue eyes have the look of a troubled past behind them, but also convey a strong sense of loyalty and sincerity. A vertical scar over his right eye is a visual reminder of the harshness of where he comes from, and the many challenges he's faced.
In person he is a very likable guy, and speaks his mind, sometimes a little too bluntly for others tastes. He rarely talks about home, unless it's a war-story or of specific interest to the matter at hand, and doesn't like to be asked about it. Has come to appreciate the social freedoms of this Dimension, discovering Club Caprice and others as well, having seen nothing like them where he's from and can often times be found getting down on the dance-floor.
When it comes to the job though, he's very serious and precise, and quick to snap at those who are less focused. Back home, such carelessness can get someone killed, and Rebel has no patience for failure, or endangering those around him. He's capable of taking a life and has done so before, on many occasions... His Kill-Count is currently at 37, but all of those were in Multifaria, and he hasn't killed anyone from this Dimension, yet. His most recent kill was in pursuit of one of the Conquerors after Citizen Harmon was defeated, a cruel enforcer of his named "Oubliette". He collected a Bounty on her after she fled, for the New Detroit Leadership, but she would not be taken alive, and Rebel felt no remorse in ending her, recalling the many good people she had murdered herself.

1. Unnaturally Lucky - Able to beat the odds every time, regardless of how high they are, Rebel can be said to be gifted with extreme luck. The origin of this power is unclear, and it reveals itself in many different ways, not all of which are even apparent to Rebel himself. This in combination with his aptitude for survival are clearly what allowed him to stay alive so long in the dangerous dimension he grew up in.
2. Unnatural Aim - Likely just an effect of the fore-mentioned Luck, Rebel rarely if ever misses a shot. Short-range, long-range, trick-shot, aimed or off the cuff, he is incredibly accurate with his blasters, or most weapons he picks up for that matter.
3. Unnaturally Agile - Rebel is in great physical shape, but can move more deftly than even a top athlete can. He can run faster, jump higher and further, and nimbly evade enemy fire when necessary, even dodging bullets.
Skills:
Growing up in the Resistance, Rebel was taught to survive, and this is his number one skill. Having been through countless skirmishes with the Destroid Legions that terrorized his world kept him sharp, always on his toes and ready for anything. His skill with twin pistols is excellent, and favors the weapons as a result, always carrying his preferred weapons on his hip. His knowledge of technology is above-average, and he designs his own gear himself, from his armor to his weapons, and even modifying a Hawkwing Jet he recently came into possession of. He is also extremely nimble and evasive, making him a difficult target to nail down in combat.
The tech Rebel has the most experience working with is Zerstoiten Tech, or more accurately Doctor Destroyer's Technology. He's dismantled dozens of Destroids and knows their weak-points and inner-workings quite well, second only to Albert Zerstoiten himself. Modifying this tech for his own ends comes easy to him now, after years of learning and experimenting with various parts and prototypes. He is capable of designing his own original tech, but re-engineering existing devices is still his preferred method.
Aside from Combat and Tech Skills, Rebel is a gifted guitar player, having been taught to play years ago by another member of the Resistance during a long stint of down-time the two shared. He enjoys the gritty noise produced from the instrument and tends to play fast and heavy rifts, occasionally singing along as he plays. Since his arrival in this dimension, he has discovered the vast amount of music available here, and has enjoyed expanding his own musical knowledge as a result.
Equipment:
1. Custom Armor - Completely self-designed, Rebel's favored suit of armor is made from salvaged Destroids from his home Dimension, and is extremely durable. As a young man he would go out scavenging for supplies and often times return with scrounged weapons and equipment from the enemy. Repairing what he could, he learned the tech pretty well and began refurbishing it for use by the Resistance. He currently has two versions, a medium-grade suit made from Destroid Soldiers, and a heavy armor suit constructed from the armor and tech of Mega-Destroids he's brought down.
2. Dual Custom Pistols - Taking again, the technology salvaged from Citizen Harmon's Destroid legions, Rebel has built himself a pair of blasters to use in combat. Each with three settings to use as he sees fit. The first is a standard kinetic round, though the ammunition can vary depending on the clip loaded, it fires 9mm slugs and can be lethal. The second setting is non lethal taze blasts that weaken and incapacitate the target. And the third option is explosive tipped rounds that detonate on impact, which tend to be quite lethal to just about anything. The settings can be switched at any time by a simple gesture when the guns are drawn. ((In-Game Powers = Gunslinger Rank 3, Two Gun Mojo Rank 3, Lead Tempest Rank 3, Breakaway Shot Rank 1 can all be used with settings 1 or 2, and Lock and Load Rank 1 is the toggle to 3rd setting))
3. Jetpack - A heavily modified Mandalmotors Jetpack sits on the back of his medium Destroid armor suit, yet another piece of salvaged tech he's repaired. A different model custom Jetpack is attached to his heavier suit, featuring additional power to accommodate the added weight. Both are capable of reaching Mach 2 after sufficient acceleration, and have ample power cells for extended use. ((In-Game Power = Jetpack Travel Power))

4. Hawkwing Jet - Without the fear of being immediately shot down by Mega Destroids and other artillery, Rebel has unveiled a project he's been working on for years... A heavily modified Hawkwing Jet. Loaded with extensive firepower, the aircraft is capable of reaching Mach 8, has energy-absorbing hull plates and is covered in a thin layer of Questionite for added protection. The Jet can be remotely operated for emergency evacs, devastating fly-bye attacks, and other simple tasks from a keypad on his left forearm. This utilizes a lot of the same Destroid Tech that he's familiar with, but is not limited too it as much as his armor and blasters. Carries much of his extra gear for easy access, and seats four people plus the pilot. ((In-Game Powers = Become Hawkwing Interceptor Device and Strafing Run, Rank 3))
5. Drones - At times a pair of drones flank Rebel, designed to either fire an energy beam at the same targets he is shooting at, or another pair that project a regenerative ray around him and other allies. These remotely controlled drones are (you guessed it!) reprogrammed and modified Destroid Leader Drones. Aside from the medical and attack drones, Rebel has since added a number of others such as recon drones, surveillance drones, and a pair of repair drones for the Jet. ((In-Game Power = Support Drones, Rank 2))
6. Regenerative Ray - Mounted on his right forearm is a Regeneration Ray, similar to the ones outfitted to two of his drones, only more powerful. This device works by creating an entropy reversal ray that will repair both organic and inorganic material the more focused the ray becomes. When the beam is not directed through the device on his wrist, it applies the same effects to him, allowing him to recover from injuries at an accelerated rate. ((In-Game Powers = Empathic Healing, Rank 2 and Regeneration Rank 3))
7. Adrenal Dart Launcher - Sitting next to the wrist mounted Regen Ray is a small dart launcher loaded with an Adrenal Boost Serum that can give injured allies the strength to fight on, even after they've been defeated. The Serum works as suggested, introducing a hefty dosage of pure adrenalin into the body, thus numbing pain and energizing the recipient to get back up. Each dose is measured carefully and is non-addictive, though the launcher only holds three darts at a time and can take a few moments to reload. ((In-Game Power = Resurrection Serum, Rank 1))
8. Force Field Generators - Clipped to his belt are two devices, one being a personal force field generator designed from yet again more Destroid Technology that Rebel can activate at times when dodging isn't an option. The other is slightly larger gizmo that not only creates a shield around himself, but also those he's designated as allies that are within range. The first has ample power for extended use, but the latter requires time to recharge between uses. ((In-Game Powers = Force Shield Block, Rank 3 and Nimbus of Force Device))
9. Power Dampening Grenade - Also attached to his belt are two grenades for when things get really bad. Each of these will produce a small implosion upon detonation, consuming any and all forms of power nearby, and significantly draining the source over time. Extremely dangerous and expensive to make, he only uses them in extreme situations. ((In-Game Power = Implosion Engine Rank 1))

Enemies:
The Purple Python:
Real Name: Unknown
Age: Late 20's - Early 30's
Height: 6' 5"
Weight: 185 pounds
Occupation: VIPER Assassin Elite
VIPER may have it's share of blunderers, but there are some they employ who are very good at what they do, that being evil. One such Agent is the Purple Python, assassin for VIPER's Generals. The "alternate" version of Rebel from this dimension, is his mirror opposite, like most from Multifaria they line up perfectly in skills and abilities, making him such a dangerous foe. In this Dimension, the man put his skills to use as a contract killer, but in another, a freedom fighter by the name of Rebel was born and grew. Now, in this dimension together, will it be big enough for both of them?
Background: UNITY , UNTIL , and MCPD all have files on this cold-blooded killer for hire, dating back several years, but have never been able to apprehend him. Believed to be responsible for the assassination of two Millenium City Council Members, and one Mayoral Aid, as well as several UNTIL and MCPD agents and officers.
Currently under the employ of Doctor Dino Demogaard of VIPER as one of their top assassins.
Considered ARMED and EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. <Threat level 8/10>
- Update 9.1.2013 - After two confrontations with this villain, Rebel and the GDF were able to uncover the location of Doc Demogaard's main base, and execute a plan of attack to draw the Purple Python out, and put a stop to he and his boss' plans. Apprehending Doc Demogaard and his bodyguard Ripper, the GDF finally lured the Purple Python into showing himself, though were unable to arrest him at this time. During the altercation however, one of Rebel's shots hit a nearby tank of concentrated Draysha, causing it to spray all over the Purple Python and alter his DNA as the substance notoriously does, mutating him into a half-man half-snake right in front of them. Again fleeing, the now deformed villain swore retribution for his condition, and remains at large.
Pythonis:
Real Name: Unknown
Age: NA
Height: 8' 7"
Weight: 345 pounds
Occupation: Mutant Terrorist
Background: After his exposure to the Draysha, the Purple Python escaped and hid in the wilds of Monster Island before resurfacing some time later. Taking the name "Pythonis", his mind is not what it once was, becoming as much animal as it is human, but still just as cruel and treacherous as ever. It is still unclear how the Draysha effected his abilities, but it's obvious he is a lot stronger than before, based on the physical mutation. All other abilities remain unknown.
Pythonis' first act was to contact several displaced battalions of VIPER Troops in the area and lure them to his new lair, where he mutated them in his own image. They now mindlessly serve their new master, who's ambitions and ultimate goals remain a mystery.
Considered ARMED and EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ( Threat Level 8/10 )
Allies:
Zero Line: "Zero's a smart guy, better wit da tech dan I am, but he a bit... i guess you could say 'odd'. Dey say eccentricity is often da curse of genius, so I wager dat be da case here. Still seems a capable leader from what I seen, and is dedicated to da job, which I like."
Independence Eagle: "Eagle be one of a kind... He almost larger dan life. His commitment to freedom and justice are what make him da shinin example of what a Hero should be."
Mirey: "Mirey uses all kinds a dat hoodoo I don't get, but is a very capable medic when tings get bloody, and da only one I trust workin dat sorta Mojo on me."
Weaknesses:
Rebel is tough and extremely agile, but even with his unnatural luck, he is still mortal and susceptible to injury and death through the usual means. He has no ability with magic or psionics, and remains vulnerable to both. Rebel possesses an extreme distaste for tyranny as a result of his upbringing, and it's one of his few hot-buttons that can cause him to lose his cool. He also refuses to get too close to anyone personally, having lost many friends and allies in the War back home, he keeps people at a distance for his own protection.
Quirks:
Growing up in the Vieux Carre, Rebel speaks with a thick Cajun accent and uses many slang terms most people do not understand. Listed here are several commonly used terms from the Cajun dialect that someone talking to him would likely hear.
1. "Mon Ami" - Means "My Friend"
2. "Cher" - Means "Dear"
3. "Coo-Wee" - A Cajun exclamation meaning "Wow"
4. "Poo-Yi" - A show of disappointment, means "That Stinks"
5. "Allon" - Means "Let's go"
6. "Mo Chagren" - Means "I'm Sorry"
7. "Petit" - Means "Little One"
8. "Bonjour" - Means "Hello"
9. "Envy" - Means "Want"
10. "Laissez les bons temps rouler" - Means "Let the good times roll"
The Cajun accent also slurs many word's pronunciations and can make understanding what was said difficult. Most commonly, the "Th" sound is replaced with a "D" sound, ( IE- This, That and There become Dis, Dat, and Dere ) or the "Th" is replaced by just the "T" ( IE- Thank, Think and Thing become Tank, Tink, and Ting ). The accent also tends to shorten a lot of words, most commonly the "ing" suffix becoming just "in" ( IE- Running becomes Runnin ) or certain prefixes being dropped all-together ( IE- Enough and Except become 'Nuff and 'Cept ).
For those unfamiliar with the dialect, it can take some getting used too.
