Pabuji is a twentysomething Indian male with internet access and a penchant for conspiracy theories. He heard about the supermen early, albeit from unreliable sources, and became obsessed with learning everything he could about them. So far his research is largely self-contradicting and of little value, but he still knows more than the average citizien. His ideology dominates facts - he is certain that the supermen must be subject to the laws of physics, must be normal, and their abilities must be replicable in laboratory conditions. Since no supermen are exactly willing to be tested, he wants to observe them in person.

Hero/Villain Name/Player: Sister Beretta / Silver Steak
Home Town: Theresa, NY
Current Location: Theresa, NY
Hero Points: 2
Superhero level: 1
Power: Power Manipulation
Sister Beretta grew up as sweet, innocent Clare in an orphanage run by a small Catholic church just outside town, and quickly showed insight and interest in the scriptures. All was looking well, as she decided to become an apprentice in the church, dreaming of one day traveling to the Vatican and other holy sites in Yurop. However, fate did not smile on Sister Beretta for long. The small church fell victim to a deranged serial killer, who ran into the church for amnesty, but ended up shooting everyone instead. Sister Beretta miraculously survived the attack, but only by herself killing the murderer. Despairing at her sin and lack of place to call home, she was ready to end her life then and there. However, she heard a voice which told her of atonement through sacred missions. She was to become one of the mortal saviors of the world.
No longer a child, she took up the name of Sister Beretta - eagerly awaiting other mortal saviors to contact her.

For Sister Beretta, I'm guessing either Unitarian Jihad or The Truth. Yurop is probably ripped off from somewhere else.

"Don't go near him!"
"Its the weird guy"
His head hurts like hell.
"You're hereby found by the council.... Exiled"
Exile?!
"Sorry son..."
Father?!
Everything went chaos. Buildings ripped off the ground. Men and women along with children lie lifeless...
"Monster!"
Monster?...
"Run for your lives!!"
Power
Now everything was in ruins....
"Yes you have it"
Who are you?!
"I'm you"
Huh?!
"I'm inside you.... I have given you the power"
What power?!
"I guess you don't recognize me..."
No I dont... Enlighten me
"I'm your mother..."
Mother?!
"Mother Earth. You are born from the land. From the soil. From the Earth. I'm dying."
Why?
"Humans. They kill me. They pollute me. Look around you. Look all over the world."
Yes... I'm starting to see
"You were born to avenge me. Go forth and bring justice."
Yes Mother. I will.
"Go! Be the conflaguration of mankind. I have given you the power of the earth. Go Death. Go Destruction. Go Steel. Go my SON!"
Then he woke up. Ecuador. He smiled. That's were he would start. Then he walked North in the Andes Mountains.

Day 10
I can slow it, and I can stop it for a few seconds. I even see it differently, just like it really is. Time is like a bunch of wheels working together. You can easily stop one, hold another, slow them down or stop them altogether. At my home I practice my ability as much as I can. Throwing things to the air and seeing how many I can catch without any falling to the floor. I can catch a hundred things in a good day.
Day 12
So today I went to buy some groceries, but I have no money. I moved here just a week ago. I have to get some job or something or else I'll die of hunger and not some cruel people. So as I started writing, I went to that shop and stole from it. I was easy, no one even noticed me. I was in and out in less than a second. I almost got caught as my ability begun to weaken when I left the store but I got some money for now.
Day 13
I send some mail back home. My mom is probably worried sick. I'm sick of South Africa, it's no fun to hide. I think I'll leave here as soon as I can...
orders of some sort: spend all hero points on improving my powers by training them. So I could stop time for longer, and could slow it more etc...

Widespread robberies across the world continue as the planet falls into fearful chaos, following...
For most people, the 12th of September seemed like a compleltly new world. Perhaps the last remnants of the Twentieth Century died in the attack. People woke up to find prophocies of global distuction, which led to widespread riots across Europe.
The armies saw this as a warning.
The General stared across the road at the Bovington Tank Museum. Freight Trucks were being loaded with tanks of all shapes and sizes, from the King Tiger to the Mark I of 1916. Apparently they would be stationed as emergancy backup in case of invasion.
If only that were the case.
These tanks, old though they were, were being shipped to a British Military Base just off the coast of New Zealand. There, they would take part in a project known only to Prime Minister Blair, The General and the military's top brass.
The General sighed, and listen to more of the news in his jeep.
...for the theft in Vancouver. In International News, Germany has broken diplomatic relations with Afghanistan and Iraq, hoping that the rest of the world will follow suit. Leopard tanks have already be moved to the borders of borth countries as an invasion seems close. The US and Britain have yet to re-act to the problem.
The General rolled his eyes. ANOTHER useless combat! As if Korea, Vietnam and the Gulf War had any use for Britain at all.
Suddenly, a man jumped out of the M26 Perishing being loaded onto it's truck. He was ragged, filthy and looked like he'd had a heart attack.
"DOOM! DOOM!" he shouted, "YOU WILL DIE! GENERAL WILLIAMS, THE HUMAN-MACHINE HYBRID!"
Then he promply fainted.
On the train to London, General thought it over. The man had been taken to hospital but the ambulance men said he was dead. He never had looked alive.
His train of thought was interupped by the train's horn, and he started the Times crossword.

This must be it...
The sun was scorching hot. But it didn't matter to him... as long as the humans die. He reached a small town somewhere on the southern part of Ecuador. It's a simple growing town.
"G'mornin stranger."
A brown skinned man with a plow in hand, a hat in his head, his clothes were worn and you could see the callouses on his hands.
A farmer... a human...
"I bet your new here aren't you?". Silence. "So you don't talk eh? The weather's hot. I bet your thirsty. Why don't you come to my house and have a drink."
Hospitality...
The farmer led Steel to a rundown shack a couple of meters to the town proper. "Get in...get in. Don't be shy fella". The shack was dirty. You could see bugs and insects runnin around. Along the corner the man went to his jug and got a glass of water. It's pale murky brown. "This's the only water we have, those damned cartels keep raiding here and gettin our water.". Steel stared at the water. This isn't the water we have in our village.. The farmer then continued to talk. "The name Juan by the way. I'm a marijuana farmer hehe. I betcha you know what that means boy." The man chuckled. "I bet your tired from your journey. Coz your not talkin" The man chuckled again. "I have an extra mat on the storage room. Lets go and help me get it."
They got out and circled the shack. The storage room looks like a little version of the shack. Only it looks more like a cabinet with a pad lock. "Here it is." Juan got a key out of his pocket and unlocked it. Inside were mostly firewood, branches and trunks of small trees.
"Steel...Help..."
He blinked. Looked around frantically.
"Humans... They're killing us!"
"What's wrong boy? You got a headache or something?". Steel kneeled on the ground as his head gave an excruciating pain. "Aaargh!" he screamed. "Woah boy, easy... easy...". Still Steel screamed "Aaargh!". Clutching his head, he almost lost consciousness.
Who are you?!
"Your brothers and sisters!"
Where?!
"In here!"
Steel looked around. Brothers and Sisters?!. He found them. Inside the storage room. Tears flowed down his cheeks. Don't worry... Ill avenge you. "You ok my boy? It sounded as if it hurt a lot" He chuckled again. Not knowing it'll be his last.
Steel, still kneeling, placed his palm on the ground. Mother, let me avenge my brothers and sisters.. Slowly, the earth creeped on his arms. It creep up to his shoulders. Then hardened...like steel.
Juan looked in amazement and fear. He's not laughing anymore. "Didn't you know who you've killed?" Steel asked. "n-n-n-no-no... i-i-i don't kno-kno-know what yo-you're talkin a-a-about!" replied the farmer. Steel didn't listened. His earthen arms grabbed the brown-skinned man as if he's carrying potatoes. "Puh-puh-please do-dodon't hurt me!!!" screamed the farmer.Juan now crying and frantically desperate to get out.Steel laughed, "That's what my siblings screamed when you cut them. I will make you pay!".
Blood filled the ground. Halves of a human lying... ripped apart. Damned humans. I will make you pay a hundred times fold!. He ran to the town.
OOC: obviously i'm a villain.

And yet the explosion of an entire scientific institute smack dab in Silicon Valley receives none...=P

Oh, don't worry. I don't even watch anime. But then again, this super hero thing is like Superman/Batman (or Justice League, which is also cartoon) kinda stuff, so the similarities are inevitable.
Mr. X - Development
Wang Xiaopeng tossed the flower lightly onto the ground. That is, he let it fall from his fingers, which had been holding it very lightly, as if it were tenuous. It fell onto the dirt with nary a sound. Then he realized something.
Everywhere, the plants, life itself, was mysteriously gone. As far as he could see , the Earth was not even scorched, it was just...gone. Save for himself and this flower, the whole North Wing of the Institute had simply disappeared. There was dirt and the sky and dust and nothing living.
The full impact of this didn't hit him yet. His tired brain filed it away.
What was he going to do after this? It wouldn't do to be the only survivor. Better to let everybody think he had died than to be the one responsible. Was it him though? Various images flew through his head. A theorem gone awry, a button pushed in drunken fervor. He didn't know. He wasn't sure he wanted to know.
But he was so tired now. He would take a nap.
No! He couldn't! He had to leave. There was no way he could stay, no way at all. But maybe he could
There is always a kid at school who is a jerk, and the one here was Eudes. He was French in origin and he was a real kneebiter. His favorite thing to do was to punch people right on the nose.
He had never punched Xiaopeng before, however, because of his glasses. It was an unspoken rule of honor, Xiaopeng supposed, and for that he was glad.
It was two weeks before Homecoming, and Xiaopeng had his eyes on Hanako Yamada. Due to Murphy's Law, who else but Eudes would also have his eye on her?
"Hey, Hanako," he said, tapping her on the shoulder. She turned around and this is the exact time when Eudes decided to burst in.
"Listen, Hah-naw-koh," he said, bastardizing her name into something terrible, "you have to come with me to Homecoming, yeah?" He pushed his hair out of his eyes. He probably thought his crazy ruffled and too long hair made him look dashing, reckless, and brave, but it only made him look unkempt and dirty.
"I shan't," she replied, airily, displaying unusual grammatical prowess.
"No!" he said, angrily. Instead of punching the object of his frustration like he was prone to do, he hit an alternative, who happened to be Xiaopeng, idly standing by and waiting for the teacher to open to the door for his Calculus class (the law of substitution as well as Murphy's Law comes to mind).
His head jerked back and hit the wall behind him. The pain this caused was accentuated by the fact that he was in front of the water fountain, meaning that his back was uncomfortably jammed against an obstruction. Or was it? No, there was that funny dull sound again. The metal's sensation was dulled and it didn't hurt nearly as much as he thought it would. Only his head suffered pain. His back was fine.
just close his eyes for a bit and than go on his way. The sun had gone down. Or had it? The dust in the air made it hard to tell.
He tried getting up. He was in far less pain than before. He didn't really know why. He didn't really care why. He got up, a bit shakily, and set off south, toward the main city of San Francisco. He had to go get his things. As he started walking, his shoes crushed the pair of glasses that were lying on the ground.

1. Communism sucks
and
2. My History Internal Assessment is about Tiananmen Square and he was floating in my mind, so there.
