F*** it. I can't resist.
The "World of Heroes" DC RPG Season VII Application
Screen Name: Eddie Brock
Character you would like to play (please include the color and font you plan on using to portray the character): Kilowog
Powers and Brief Origin (provide at least two sentences) If you copy/paste this information from another website, link back to it, or it is considered plagiarism and is not allowed.: Kilowog's natural Bolovaxian abilities include superstrength, endurance, and durability. However, Kilowog's real power comes in the form of his Green Power Ring. The ring's power is limited only by its wearer's willpower, and Kilowog has that in spades.
Kilowog was a geneticist on his home planet Bolovax Vik. When the Green Lantern of that sector, Branwill, died, Kilowog was selected as his replacement. His position left him more or less exiled from his planet, but he accepted it with honor. When his planet was destroyed, Kilowog stored the 16 billion life energies on his ring. Sinestro, however, destroyed the new planet that Kilowog found for his people, leaving him utterly alone.
Kilowog works as a trainer to new Lantern recruits, but he also participates in missions when the time calls.
Group your character is aligned with (if applicable): The Green Lantern Corps
Write two complete sentences using proper English grammar. One to explain what you plan to do with the character you've chosen. The other to explain why you've chosen this character. (i.e. What are your goals? Will you be doing anything different with the character than is usually seen?): To be honest, I don't really plan on
doing anything with the character, persay. I chose him because I can't sit back and
not get involved in the War of Lights, so he's going to be the same old Kilowog that we know and love.
Do you have an Instant Messenger? Which one, and what is your screen name?: MSN -

"One more time, and let's try to do it right this time," I groan as I set up the yellow targets. I look at the nervous faces before me. It's always the same. Hard to believe I was once standing in
their place. It seems so long ago.
"Cadet Geoff, front and center."
A small boy steps forward. He's trembling. I nod, and he raises his ring. He does it so slowly that you'd think the ring weighed a ton. Heavy is the finger that wears the ring, I suppose. I step back and announce,
"Go!"
Geoff charges his ring. It glows bright green for a moment, but then it merely glows idly. Geoff is almost breaking a sweat. He bites his lip and focuses harder. All that happens is that the ring glows a little more.
I groan disappointedly.
"Come on, Geoff!" I point at the targets.
"There might be innocent lives at stake! You can't stop just because of a color!" Geoff glances at me out of the corner of his eye. He shifts slightly, and his ring continues to glow unthreateningly.
I raise my ring and unleash a blast.
CHOOOOOOOM! The yellow target splinters, leaving nothing where it once stood. The recruits stare at it wide-eyed. I turn and face them.
"What do you say? One more time?"
