Character Personality(Give information on how your character acts, what he/she believes in, how they handle situations): Norman has good old fashion morals, believing there to be a clear distinction between right and wrong, good and bad. As a father he is very protective of his children, since he has seen the worst the world has to offer. As a hero, he will die before letting an innocent person come to harm.
Origin Info/Details: Norman Sofer is 47 years old. When he was in high school, he met the love of his life, Eve. They began dating, falling madly in love. As the relationship grew more and more serious, they began talking of the future. Norman had planned on proposing to Eve, but first, she wanted him to meet her father, scientist Victor Graves. She brought Norm home, but as he shook her father's hand, he fell unconscious. Waking up strapped to a bloody gurney, he was faced with the truth. Victor Graves had been working for the government on a super-soldier formula when he had been fired. Becoming obsessed, he began forcing his daughter to bring home young men for him to experiment on. All the previous test subjects had died. Norman was number 29.
Graves injected Norm with the serum, but only seconds before his daughter realized that she really did love Norman. She grabbed a scalpel and killed her father, and freed Norman. The two eloped, and eventually did get married. They settled down in the suburbs, where they had two children. Now, a near 30 years after that fateful night, Norman has begun displaying powers and abilities that match those that Victor Graves had attempted to manufacture.

Three reasons why you have chosen that character:
1. I actually like his origin and stuff quite a bit.
2. I have plans for him that would hopefully be a real good read.
3. This is, after all, the perfect venue to play my own creation.

A frequent poster. A team-player and, hopefully, a good writer.
How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: During solo arcs, about maybe twice or thrice a week. Team arcs, as many as is needed.
Do you know how to post pictures on the hype boards: I do.
Sample Origin Post (Minimum Four paragraphs containing dialogue):
"Wh...Wha...." Norman Sofer muttered to himself. He pried his eyes open, but the light that hung overhead forced them shut. A sharp pain on the back of his head.
"W...Where...Eve..." he tried to speak, but he could not even begin to string together any sort of a sentence
"Now, now, Mr. Sofer. You just lie there and relax, and I'll be done in a jiffy." a very cold, emotionless voice echoed at him. Was that...No, it couldn't be. Something else, Norm could hear...a soft, gentle sobbing.
"E..Eve...lemme go....don't hurt her...E..Ev..."
"Oh, tut, tut, why would I harm my own daughter? I love my daughter." the man spat at Norm, as he stepped in between the young boy and the overhead lamp. It was Eve's father, a small-statured bald man with glasses clinging desperately to his face. Not a soul would guess he could sire something as beautiful as the girl crying to herself in the corner.
"Pl..Please...I'm just a kid..."
"Oh, but if this works, Mr. Sofer, which I am fairly sure it will, you will become so much more." Victor Graves said, his voice lathered in self-assurance and pride. Raising his hand high above, the mad doctor cackled as young Norm began crying out.
"Eve...Eve, help me! Eve, please!" he screamed out, but all he could hear was her cries.
Graves smiled, a devious smile, as he brought the needle filled with a bright red liquid slamming down into Norman's chest. Unbearable pain filled his entire being as the potion invaded his body.
"Eve, saVE ME!!!!" Norm screamed, as so many nights before, as his body jerked up. Covered in a cold sweat, he felt the sweat-stained covers beneath him as slender arms wrapped themselves around him.
"Still having those dreams?" Eve asked. No matter what the situation, the sound of her voice was enough to tame a wild beast.
Taking her hand and enveloping it in his own, Norman smiled as Eve reached up and wiped the sweat from his brow. "It's fine, honey. Really. I'm sorry. Come one, let's get back to sleep." he said, before their lips softly brushed together, and they once again fell into a deep sleep.
