Short and Sweet We Promise |
||||
We'll admit this is short and sweet. It's first come first serve for the characters, we don't want doubles of a character running around, though PB's, as long as we don't have 400 of the same face running around it's cool. You will be alerted as soon as we can about getting your application. And as soon as the team of mods look it over you'll be informed of your acceptance. If denied, we'll give you a chance to add in details that we think need a little brushing up on and a shot to try again. If you fail that time I'm sorry you won't be able to app that character to the game, though feel free to try another character. |

Character Name: Dr. Bruce Banner
Canon: Incredible Hulk / Avengers (MCU canon)
Background:Bruce banner was working at Culver University when the US army recruited him to attempt to recreate the serum that was created by Abraham Erskine to create Captain America. He was not informed of the reason for the project he was on thinking it was something to help with radiation defenses for soldiers.
Feeling positive that gamma radiation was the key to stabilizing and activating the serum that was made he tested it on himself, exposing himself to lethal amounts of radiation. Instead of protecting him the combination of the drug and the radiation transformed him into a large green creature, whom rampaged destroying the lab, and seriously harming Bruce’s on again off again girlfriend Betty Ross.
This brought the attention of her father, General Ross, who wanted to turn the Hulking beast he had turned into in to a weapon. Bruce, not wanting that to happen goes on the run. Because of the Hulk he tries to avoid populated areas, travelling on his own causes him to get depressed.
At one point he’s so deep in his depression he actually tried to swallow a bullet to end it all, only to have Hulk spit the bullet out. After that he decides to try to find a way to keep Hulk contained.
This meant he’d have to get used to being in populated areas again. Bruce took a job in Rio de Janeiro at a factory, while in his free time trying to find a remedy for the high levels of radiation within him. A mishap brought Ross back down on him. But he had information from a colleague back in the States that there was a chance of curing his condition. Travelling to New York he ran into Betty again, who helped him try to get cured, problem is her father had a new colleague of his own. Blonsky got his hands on the serum that had been derived of Bruce’s blood and became an Abomination. After the fight which he won, Bruce left, this time taking to the Canadian wilderness trying to find a place to learn to control himself.
After disappearing for a year and a half he was found again by Natasha Romanoff working in the slums as a doctor. Didn’t take much to convince him to go with her to help S.H.I.E.L.D. While there he was put in charge of finding the Tesseract which had been stolen by Loki. While there he and Tony became friends.
While on the Helicarrier Loki managed to trigger Hulk, causing him to do damage to the helicarrier, but managing to give Black Widow time to get Hawkeye back from Loki’s grasp. He got separated from the group, landing in the middle of an empty factory. By the time he gets to New York Loki’s little war’s already started. He stops Loki from interfering more in things by, for better use of a term, using Loki as a rag doll.
After everything’s dealt with he takes on Tony’s offer to stay in New York and hand out at the labs for a bit, that was a few months ago, and he’s been staying with Tony and Pepper, while he’s given up curing himself, he’s been working on trying to cure others with Gamma radiation sickness.
Personality:
He has a split personality, it’s the easiest way to describe it. While he’s still Bruce he’s smarter, and is more relaxed if you go by outward appearance. Those in the know know he’s always angry, fighting with his other half for control.
The Bruce persona is the one he shows more to the public, let’s face it he’s a bit easier to get along with, and he’s a doctor, Medical field (though unlicensed) as well as scientific fields. He’s the leading expert on gamma radiation despite him being on the run for most of the last decade. He hasn’t published any papers recently being a fugitive and all that, though lately that’s started to change since he’s been staying in New York with Tony Stark and Pepper Potts.
If he feels the other guy starting to come on strong, if he’s able he’ll distance himself from the public, as to cause the least amount of damage possible. He’s worried about hurting innocent bystanders and will do all he can to protect lives. If that means going back on the run then he’ll do it.
Most things Bruce will let slide by without a thought, after all if he nitpicked everything he’d be at risk of losing what little control over the Hulk he does have, and no one wants to be nearby if he loses control, it’s never a pretty sight.
And now this brings me to the big guy. While Bruce has all the brains and normal human strength… Hulk is well Hulk. He’s strong enough to lift trucks and launch them into the air. Downside, he’s not as bright. Not saying he’s an idiot, but to talk to him, simple phrases are a little better, the less words the better.
While he’s the big guy he’s harder to keep down as well. Hulk is pretty much a safety mechanism for Bruce, to protect him, problem is who protects the two from one another, they’re constantly fighting for control over the body which is part of the reason they never really rest. Bruce is afraid that if Hulk gets lose he’ll destroy everything, while Hulk just wants to be free and left alone.
While Bruce states in Avengers that he’s always angry, it’s more like he’s always just that close to losing control, after all it can’t be that easy just by thinking peaceful thoughts to keep Hulk back. He doesn’t seem to be the kind of being that can just sit back, and considering how easy it is for him to change when he’s in danger, feels right saying that’s more the truth than he’s just got great anger management skills. Though being around Tony Stark those skills are put to their limits a little more often than anything, though it’s not really Tony’s fault, Bruce and Hulk just have to get used to being back in civilization that isn’t always sun by drug cartels. As long as he doesn’t take taxis anywhere he should be safe enough in New York right?
Abilities:
Genetic metamorphisis - He can turn into a big green rage monster
Scientific genius - He's the top name in the field of gamma radiation studies
Parkour - He's picked this up along the way while he was on the run as a fugitive, though he's not an expert at it.
various martial arts - he's studied these mostly for the calming techniques while he was on the run, so that he could handle being in small towns without an incident. Last thing he'd want to do is hurt someone just because they bumped into him after all.
Weaknesses:
Himself, that's one of his greatest ones, if the situation is too stressful he could shift into Hulk and well not every situation is good for smashing stuff.
In his Hulk form the allies Hulk's made can be used against him, he will balk a moment before attacking unless the person just irks him (Tony, or Thor) and Hulk's not quick to forgive someone if he thinks they helped trap him (Widow).
Banner isn't bullet proof, though because of his condition it's best if he doesn't have armor, tehy don't make kevlar stretchy enough which means if he's taken out before he can switch forms Hulk will be out of control until he can recover.
