History:Tobias Farham was one of the best scientists in the United Kingdom. His sole purpose in life to him was to create a new form of electricity that would solve the worlds power crisis. Farham was intelligent, wity and (as his friends often said) a genius. Tobias COULD have been rich, but he only used the money for his research, choosing insted to live contently in his Apartment in Camden town, london.

Tobius had a small son called Jayron, and when he was born, everyone expected him to be just like his humble father. However, by the time he was 10 years old, Jayron had become hardly anything like his father. He was, to put it bluntly, a brat! He often argued with his dad that his modesty would be their undoing, especially after Jayron's mother died. But his father kept telling him that money couldn't buy happiness. At which point Jayron would scoff and leave the room.

One day, a few weeks after Jayron's 16th birthday, A bright spark at Tobias' lab accidentaly dropped an open bottle of liquid soap into a vat of subatomic particals he was working on, creating a strange orange liquid from it. After testing, it was discovered that the liquid could create bubbles that could not only A:fuse together, B:last up to as long as 5 hours if willed to, but also C: generate however much electricity depending on the size of the bubble.

It was everything they'd been looking for, and the moment they knew how powerful the electric bubbles were, Tobius ordered 50 vats of the liquid to be made within the month. Sadly, just after the 50th vat had been made, and a 51st was being brued, Tobius waled into the lab, slipped on a puddle of liquid soap and fell into a vat of particals. The electric shock killed him. After his funeral, Jayron soon found out that he was the sole heir of his fathers lab and the £200'000 of money that had not been invested yet. Corupted by his own greed, Jayron called off all of his fathers projects, shut down the lab and kept the money for himself. The future of mankind meant nothing to him, due to the fact he was now rich.

4 years later, Jayron and a few friends celebrated his 20th birthday by having a pub crawl around east london. They'd hired a taxi to take them round the area. After the 14th pub, everyone was drunk. While they were walking around Brick Lane, Jayron was stopped by a group of people in black. They offered to sell him some beer for a cheap price. All he had to do, was pay them back within the week. Groggy, Jayron excepted the beer and went off.

A week later, Jayron's front door was broken down by the same men. The people who's given him the beer were mobsters. Now they wanted their pay. Having spent most of the faily fortune, Jayron was now down to £100. There was no way he was giving that to the mob. Quickly, Jayron made his escape in his car, the mob hot on his trail in theres. Jayron desided there was only 1 place to hide. His father's abandoned lab.

Jayron waisted no time in breaking down the doors and runing into the place where the vats of the orange bubble formula still stood. Suddenly, he was aware of nthe mobsters voices coming up the stairs. Thinking quuickly, Jayron removed the lid on one of the vats and hid. The mobsters looked all over the lab, serching everywhere they could. After a while, they gave up and left.

Jayron soon emerged from the vat, now soaked. He looked down at his arms and gasped. The liquid had turned his skin an orange hue. Deciding it was just dye, he got out and ran to the doors, when he did though, he found he's ran to them in less than 4 seconds. Jayron attempted to shake this off, and was heading back to his car, when he heard screams. He ran round and saw the same mobsters again. Furious about not being able to get Jayron's money, they were now taking out their frustrations on a young couple and there 8 year old daughter by mugging them. Part horrified part sickend, Jayron zoomed round the corner, and threw one of the mobsters effortlessly into a wall. Concidering that he wasn't that strong, Jayron was too shocked to notice the other mobster until AFTER he'd been knocked down to the pavement.

Jayron saw the lone gangster, ready to kill the family with the switchblade in his head. He wished now, that he had some rope to tie up this madman. Then, as if hearing his wish, Jayron's left hand as quick as a flash, produced a lasso that seemed to be made of...bubbles? Chosing to just go with it, Jayron threw the lasso around the mobster. Tiny electrical sparks came from the smallish bubbles, shocking the man like a taser gun, untill he fell to the hard pavement, beaten.

The family wasn't too sure what had happend but it didn't really matter now. They had been saved, if not in a very strange way. The little girl who had previously been huddled with her family, ran up to Jayron, and hugged him round the leg. Jayron was happy, but guilty. He didn't have it in him to tell the family that he was mostly the reason for what they'd been through.

Suddenly, Jayron realised what he had been doing wrong all this time. Every selfish and heartless act he'd done in his life had ended up effecting others in the worst ways possible. Arguing with his dad as a kid had denied Tobius the chance to spend that many happy times with him. Shutting his fathers lab down had denied the world a new source of energy and now denying the mob of their money, had almost gotten an inocent man, woman and child killed. He made a vow there and then to repent of his selfishness and give back to the UK, by trying to ridding london and as he hoped the rest of the world, of it's crime.

From that day forward, Jayron Farham has used his super speed super stength and controll over his electic bubble powers to fight crime and injustice. And while it's true that his cocky, arrogant, jokey attitude has stuck all these years, it can be said he is a better person, using his dads old lab as a base of opperations and the 19 years supply of bubble formula. Shortly after discovering the formulas limited power time in his body, (3 1/2 hours) Jayron used some old plans by his dad to create a gas version of it, and put it in canisters that sprayed it directly in his face. A week after discovering his new powers, he'd already improved the formula to incorperate a costume to go with the powers. He also found out allot about the bubbles in that time too. It seemed that when the formula was consumed, the electric particals in it went into the drinkers brain, giving him mental controll over the powerful bubbles, and allowing him to fashion them into anything aswell as pop them at will. How this works, Jayron has yet to discover. And as for the criminals of london? well, most of them once laughed at the bright costume, but now many don't sleep well nowerdays. Because whenever Jayron Farham drinks that formula, he becomes that colourfuyl champion of London Town, the tsar of taser, the sultan of sparks, the one they call, Bubbleshock!

Powers: Super speed, super stength & the power to fasion almost anything out of electric made bubbles aswell as use them as projectiles.

Power Grid: (You have 22 points to spend on your Power Grid unless you can fly, in which case you have 20. Each stat can start at 6, not 7. 7 must be earned.)


As Farham. INT: 4 STR: 2 SPD: 2 DUR: 2 EP: 0 FS: 2.

Character Image/Description:Costume is comprised mostly of orange and dark green.
Wears a double eye mask under a protective helmet, a sleeveless shirt with holes and a lightning bolt symbol. Huge 80's style suspenders. A belt. a pair of orange and green jeans. A pair of thick gloves. orange and green boots. a 17th century style neck ruffle & 2 canisters with the gas bubbleshock formula which is injected into the helmet in time of need.

Roleplay Sample: Bubbleshock zoomed behind a cobbled wall, just as a paint bomb was thrown at him. Once behind the wall, he was able to release a conciderable amount of bubbleshock gas into his helmet, restoring his powers to full. Now that Jayron came to think about it, having a sidekick now sounded like a pretty good idea.

BS: The way these sodding Anarchists have been draining my chemicals, i would GLADLY except some tweenage sidekick with an overly whiney voice screaming ''holy XY & Z'' in my ear to fight with me! Where did all these masked nonces come from anyhow?

That was the exact same question that the metro police had been asking themselves, When the anarchistic trouble makers had come charging through camden. 50 of them had been caught with the other 40 heading towards the soho area. Of course, Bubbleshock had come along and starting trapping them in static bubble cells that gave off a quick and painful shock when touched, & of course the anarchists just HAD to start throwing stuff at him while calling him a ''facist agent.'' It was simply the the way of london and probably the rest of the world.

After a while of throwing cluster bubbles at the anarchists, Bubbleshock went back to fight.

Okay so a couple of things.
Your history will probably need a slight edit as his int is not high enough to actually modify his fathers formula like that and I'd like to know a bit more about the bubbles and how they work.

Edited.

Powers and powergrid have all been worked out through the chat box, and I think there perfectly fair now. He creates bubbles that can shock people on touch for 5 EP. So unless rinnegato's got something else to add, I believe this application is ready for approval. The only thing left is your powergrid, what color(s) would you like?
