In an earlier thread some of us discussed what it would mean to be born into a super-family, and what effect that would have on how you view the world and your powers. Here's the best description I've done so far:
Jim O'Hara was born into a mutant family with super-parents and brothers, but with no powers of his own. He competed fiercely with his super-siblings, and developed his strength and agility to peak human levels. His parent's friends and connections resulted in his acquiring armor and magical items that give him limited powers such as damage resistance and teleportation. He channeled his frustration at being the "special" kid into studying the katana, military tactics, biochemistry, and lifting weights. He married, had children, and was about to settle down as a normal guy when the Rikti invaded. In the initial assault Jim defeated a pack of hunter-drones that were attempting to abduct his children, and spent the next 48 hours fighting to defend Paragon City. Afterwards he found that he had defeated nearly twice as many attackers as his super-brothers, who had little tactical training or knowledge. Jim patrols the streets as Knightsword, and now feels driven to create a safe world for his children. He still has trouble believing that he's a registered hero, and feels a little intimidated by his new peers. His parents and brothers are extremely proud.
