Superhawke

· Nicholas "Nick" West – Nick is Amanda’s fellow reporter and partner. Nick is a firm believer when it comes to truthful news. He hates and despises corporate news organizations (i.e. CNN and Fox News for example) for being useless lapdogs to right-wing American administrations rather than pillars of serving the people. He is one of INN’s star reporters, but he is also the network’s most angriest as well; every time theirs is a breaking news story he wants to exploit, his supervisors forcefully assigns him and his partner Amanda to meaningless assignments like celebrity sex scandals and Hollywood move premieres. Nick is determined to search for the truth, leading him to several danger situations where Superhawke, Amanda’s alter ego, rushes in and saves him. Although Nick respects women, he sometimes makes bad, sometimes harsh remarks about female superheroes: he believes that women do not have the discipline to handle such powers; something that echoes the fact that ten years ago, a superheroine was responsible, though inadvertently, for the death of Nick’s father. He favorite hobbies is reading progressive political activism books and playing poker (his favorite is Texas Hold-‘Em). His favorite food is ravioli pasta with vinaigrette dressing. He is a natural in boxing and judo, but ends up losing in a fight. He has a degree in journalism and experience in reporting entertainment stories (a subject in which he hates).

Eyes: Blue
Hair: Black
Height: 6 ft. 2 in.
Weight: 280 lbs.
Occupation: Superhero
Base: New York City

· Captain Justice – Captain Justice was once the champion of Pleasant City and Earth’s greatest defender… a parallel Earth that is. Justice patrols a dimension that has no crime or evil to fight, and very bored doing it, until an accidental one-dimensional vortex engulfed Justice, and his butler and loyal assistant Jerry Dollarsworth to our world where collided with Superhawke, and found new opportunity as a true hero. As a result, thanks to a sexist right-wing media blitz, became New York’s beloved and renowned superhero… much to Superhawke‘s dismay; thus the two became heated archrivals, with the ego-driven Justice taking credit for most of the dirty work Superhawke did, and receiving various product endorsements and movie deals in the process. Justice is an egomaniac and a media-savvy celebrity, whose purpose in life is nothing more than fame and fortune. He only does heroic deeds in front of cameras and never looked towards the needy and penniless, only rich celebrities and sports stars who call for his help so he can get attention. He does not like Superhawke’s femininity and complaints that women like her should do more “womanly” chores and suggest to them to wear more conservative clothing as opposed to tights. Despite Justice’s clean-cut public image, he can sometimes stoop up to being a lowbrow jerk when engaging in battles where the fate of the world is on the line: he lets other heroes soften up a super villain and when weakened, he takes him/her on. He trust in no one else but his butler Jerry, who is sometimes the voice of reason when push comes to shove. His favorite hobby is acting. No known favorite food. Despite sharing the same superhuman strength, speed, flight, “super-breath” and invulnerability of Superhawke, Justice lacks super-senses and energy projection among all other abilities Superhawke possess.

Justice now uses a Bluetooth headset and cell phone to keep contact with his butler. He also wears an optional utility belt containing various gadgets and equipment depending on mission.

They found inside the asteroid a teenage girl, sentenced for a series of serial killings in her planet, naked and recovering from her cold confinement. Shortly after, the convict quickly adapts to her new surrounding and fell in love with Hitler, in doing so she dedicated her life in following his ruthless cause as an officer in his elite Waffen SS corps under the codename Fraulein (German for “Little miss” ). Despite what the public knows at the time, WWII was almost lost due to Allied troops overpowered by Fraulein’s superhuman destructive prowess, leading to many casualties on the Allied front. She helped thwarted the advanced Allied forces at the Invasion of Normady and destroyed half of the invading British and US battalions. During the fall of Berlin in 1945, the Allies attempted a suicidal countermeasure: thanks to Allurean documents sent from an undercover informant within the Axis forces, American scientists created a prototype which was the somewhat weaker predecessor to the infamous Red Solar energy beam projector (red solar energy is Superhawke’s only weakness) and a covert strike team is sent in advance to Berlin and eliminate Fraulein. After a bloody and apocalyptic battle between the Nazi supervillainess and the strike team, Fraulein was finally subdued by the energy beam and was immediately encased in liquid hydrogen, placing her in suspended animation. After the end of the war, he was transported to a top-secret military facility in Upstate New York for decades of confinement. Set to the present day, where US Military scientists experimented on Fraulein’s frozen body to create an army of invulnerable super-soliders. But a fatal mishap freed Fraulein from her sleep then destroyed the entire facility. Now in a different time and tormented by the death of her lover, Hitler, Fraulein is determined to continue the Furher’s ambitions and rule the world through her powers. The only person now standing in her way is also the person is to be destined as her everlasting arch nemesis, Superhawke.

She is highly trained in Third Reich-era hand-to-hand combat techniques as well as learning present day disciplines including karate and ninjistu. She is a master tactician and excels in terror tactics and espionage. With her powers, she can create man-made disasters such as tornadoes, earthquakes and tidal waves.
