William Magree Briggs (Linebacker Bill)
Posted: Thu May 25, 2006 3:49 pm
Alias: Linebacker Bill
Birth Name: William Magree Briggs
Age: 18
Birthplace: Bumblescum, Illinois
Origin of Powers: Scientific (Accidental)
Powers/Abilities: Naturally thick skinned, an accidental experiment involving the brewing of his own beer granted him use of the energy powers of distillation and fermentation.
Other info: When powers activate, a slight odor of beer waifs about him. (A stout beer, for those with a sensitive nose.)
Power Manifestation:
William lived a rather simple farm life in the rural areas of Illinois. A monthly ritual soon developed at the age of 14 when he would take a bus up to Chicago to either watch, or train for football.
At the age of 17, William found a second love in his life. Beer. This love nearly developed into an obsession as he scrimped and saved, and even built his own pieces to create his own little secret lab in a run-down barn on his parent's property. Using the only available water supply, which happened to have been polluted with Ritiki energy, the explosion that soon followed left William hospitalized for nearly 3 months.
During his months of recovery, his parents sought punishment for his 'stupid antics' in trying to brew his own beer, as well as drinking under age. Their solution was to send William away to a catholic boarding school to learn how to become a 'good man'.
The doctors on the other hand, witnessed first hand William's natural strength, as well as a supernatural affinity with all things barley or hops. The consumption of beer re-doubled his strength, and in effect, 'fueled' his super-natural strength, jumping capabilities, and even his skin. Having seen these reactions in the past, though not towards alcohol, the doctors offered William's parents the name of Catholic Boarding School that might be able to help develop William's special needs.
Appearance:
With his love for football, 'Linebacker Bill' usually dresses in reinforced jerseys as well a metallic football pads. He stands about six feet tall, though still quite obviously growing. All in all, he's nothing too special to look at, being a simple farm boy with a large frame developed by hard, honest work.
