Haha! Excellent, more RPers like me out there. I just started geting a feel for the characters Im going to play seriously. I have one right now with another coming tonight. Without further ado, let me introduce you to Gran Turismo:
Gran Turismo- Science Scrapper (martial arts, super relfexes) with super speed! (ok, so currently level 4, but he can aspire cant he?) Ian McLaren was an exremely gifted up-and-coming race car driver before "The Accident." While hurtling up the hill on his way to "The Corkscrew" at Laguna Seca Raceway during his first race in a Le Mans prototype, the car's right front suspension arm sheared off and sent him flying into the spectator bridge that overlooks the track. On impact the car disentigrated into a $500,000 fireball. Ian was severly injured. He lost both of his legs and suffered severe spinal damage. He would never walk again, even with prosthetics. However, a childhood friend, Dr. Nathan Teague, had been working on groundbreaking stem cell research at the time of the accident. Teague decided that his old buddy McLaren would make the perfect candidate for a new medical procedure. By using Ian's cells, Teague would regow his legs and spinal cord. What happened after the surgury no one expected. Not only had the new body parts been successfuly grafted, they had given Ian super speed and incredible reflexes (Dr. Teague is still trying to figure out what happened. He cant seem to reproduce the results)! Ian was thrilled to have his body back, but later discovered that his new powers made him ineligable to drive racecars professionaly ever again. The FIA had regulations agains super athelete drivers. No matter, thought Ian, I can run as fast as any F1 car anyway. Now, what to do with it..... Maybe being a super hero would be on par with the adrenaline and excitement of racing...... Thus, Gran Turismo was born.
