I love reading other players origins (if you see me just standing around in Atlas park that's normally what I'm doing), sometimes a little disappointed when players have no origins or have made a little effort at putting a few lines down for an origin. Shame there isn't more room for longer origin on the character creation screen as I had to chop mine down a little.
I thought I'd share Captain Patriots full origin and would love to see other players origins posted:
Robert Maidstone was chief medical advisor to the Dawn Patrol during the Second World War. In an attempt to make normal soldiers and other vulnerable heroes stronger during battle. Robert Maidstone took the blood of Englands super invulnerable and indestructible heros to create a super healing drug to be used on the battle field and save lives during battle.
During an air raid on London, the Dawn Patrol research complex was nearly destroyed and Robert was nearly killed in the blast. In order to try and save his life the scientist who were trapped with him used the experimental drug to heal his near fatal wounds. Instantly Roberts body healed before their very eyes. He also inherited super strength and rescued his fellow scientist from the collapsing building.
After this heroic act Robert decided to use his new powers and fight along side other heroess in the war effort and protect queen and country from the new threat of super powered Nazis called the Storm Korps. From this day onward he took on the name of Captain Patriot.
Because of his medical background Captain Patriot was posted to Northern Africa to help manage and protect medical facilities in combat. During this posting he met Paragon Cities newly formed first hero brigade. During the hero brigades first major battle most if not all of the team were killed on a full frontal attack against German Panzer tanks. Captain Patriot was distraught at the massacre he witnessed and felt guilty about his invulnerability and wished he could trade his powers for those who fell in battle.
Captain Patriot became commander of a smaller unit named the Patriot Brigade and was sent into the heart of Germany to locate a medical facility being used to create super-powered warriors by what ever means necessary. Captain Patriot and his team witnessed hundreds of failed experiments using science, magic and technology ending with horrific results. Most of these failed subjects were tossed aside, killed or thrown in under ground prisons. Captain Patriot was enraged at the total disregard for life show by the Nazis scientist and attacked the facility full on. A number of his team mates fell during this battle including his second in command Union Jack. The Patriot Brigade destroyed the complex and freed hundreds of German soldiers who were forced to take part in these experiments.
This was the last battle Captain Patriot took part in during WWII and returned to the UK a changed man; he hung up his costume and disappeared with no explanation. Those heroess he fought with blocked all efforts by the government to locate Captain Patriot as everyone accepted and respected his decision to hang up his costume and disappear.
The war was won and life continued. Captain Patriot became a forgotten hero and Robert Maidstone was presumed to be living life as an old man somewhere.
This was until the Rikti invasion came. Cities all over the world were attacked including London and all the heros fought with everything they had. To those who remembered and were the most surprised to see Captain Patriot return un-aged and protect London against the Rikti invasion. After they were defeated Captain Patriot help rebuild London but realised his efforts were need in Paragon City due the extensive destruction and re-building efforts that were needed.
