Ok, i've popped up here and there on these forums, but thought I might make myself more known. So to start off, here's Infinitron's backstory:
The Story thus far...
Joseph Infinus was no ordinary man, he was a mutant. He had inherent abilities to control energy of many forms, and manifest this energy at his own will. Unfortunately he did not choose to use his power for good, and with fellow mutant Leonard Calhoun, began a small gang of rebels, using their powers to steal and intimidate.
But the Freedom Phalanx soon caught on to this, and sought to disrupt this gang before it escalated into a major threat. It was the Statesman himself who swept in to serve justice to those Mutants, but Calhoun, now more commonly known as Frostfire, turned his back on Infinus and escaped; setting a blaze in which many were consumed. Statesman, pulled many from that blaze, Infinus was one of them. But he couldn't let him off, and Infinus was sent to the Zig, but harbouring no resentment.
In an early parole scheme, Infinus was released into the care of the Crey Corporation, where his energy manipulation skills were seen as a gift to be embraced, and embrace them he did. Infinus wanted to repay his debt to society, and felt Crey had the technology to help him achieve that. Working with some of the great minds at Crey, Infinus co-developed the MOUTHS; Mobile Operations in Urban Terrain Hazard Suit [unfortunately later destined to become the Creys Eliminator Armour]. The suit had many functions, increased defense, stealth capabilities, flight function, and motorized sensors and servos; allowing for an incredibly accurate shot to be fired from a stable position.
Infinus put on the newly designed suit, and announced that this day would be the day that he would repay his debt and save this city from the evil it faces. But crey had other ideas, they saw Infinus as an extension to their Paragon Protector Army, a Supreme Commander of their forces, and tried to overpower him to install a Neural Suppresion device. But Infinus would not let this happen, and in the ensuing attack, exploded with a Nova'esque release of energy; incapacitating all in the room. Weak, and seemingly devoid of his Mutant abilities, Infinus grabbed the Crey's prototype Multi Function Assault Rifle from it's box, and escaped.
He sought refuse in the Freedom Corps. Headquarters, and explained his story.
He was released from his Parole and employed unto the Service of the City Council as Infinitron - Protectorate Of Justice, under the watchful eye of the Statesman himself; and more recently as a Reserve Member of the Freedom Phalanx themselves.
Hoped you enjoyed that as much as I enjoyed writing it [not very likely though, 'cause that was fun
].
Now, the other day I started a large scale portrait of Infinitron [4ft by 3ft], with all the heroes that I have teamed with and admire and respect, and have shaped the way I play this game. I will post a pic as soon as it's finished; hopefully it will be pleasing to the eye to you all.
Thanks for your time, and i'm glad to be part of this community.
