Character Profile: Stormburst

Look up in the sky! The storm is coming for you.
The skies of Municipal City were adorned with the site of new Luminary members, including the storm channeling Stormburst.

Little is known of this hero's origins, but he apparently is blessed by Ukko, the Finnish god of the sky. He is one of the latest humans blessed by the magical forces that have arisen on earth in the last year.

Stormburst boasts incredible strength, the ability to channel storms and lightning, and can grab everyone's attention with his sheer presence and loud booming voice that can be heard for miles around.

This does bring up concerns however about what these gods and magical beings want with our world. Were they asleep for the better part of human history? Laying in the shadows? And now that they are awake, what do they want now? Stories of legend talk of the Greek gods torturing humans at their whim, and Norse gods leading vast armies of mortals in their name.
While many legends of heroes who arose from the presence of these powerful beings, there were just as many foes trying to destroy the world.

Regardless, the citizens of Municipal City are grateful to our new hero, Stormburst. And may he continue to spread the blessings of Ukko to the world!

Character Profile: Shadow Wolf

Shadow Wolf: The Defender of Nature

While initially frightening to the citizens of Municipal City, and thought to be little more than an urban myth, this hero quickly proved to be much more.

Said to be blessed by the spirit of the earth itself, he possess incredible physical prowess, predatory cunning, and beautiful black wings that allow super sonic flight. However there seems to be more to Shadow Wolf than just these powers. Spiritual activity has increased lately, and nature is becoming more apt to defend itself against energy corporations, clear cutting operations, and other industries that have records for pollution.

Environmental groups across the globe look to Shadow Wolf as a blessing for their causes, and have often tried to get him to sign on for appearances and jobs aligned to the causes of nature. No word yet from the Luminaries or Star Industries on if Mr. Wolf is available for such engagements or interviews. We will keep you updated to further developments on who this mysterious nature warrior is.

Character Post: Kamikaze

Kamikaze: The Divine Wind

With the tender breeze of a summer day, to the full destructive force of a hurricane, this hero is the national pride of Japan. Her powers over wind are said to be a gift from the god, Fu'jin. But whatever their origin Japan has it's own national protector, and the world has a powerful ally.

During the Kracklezum invasion, Kamikaze actually shifted some of the world's weather patterns to help deflect the onslaught of asteroids raining down from space... and reports are her peerless grace and agility, combined with her Tessenjutsu (War fan) fighting style, she was able to do serious harm to the Kracklezum queen.

Congratulations are also expressed from this reporter, and from many in the world to her recent birth of a healthy baby girl, with her husband and bodyguard, Yokozuna Ryu (sumo champion of the highest rank).

May the road always rise up to meet you, and may the wind be always at your back, Kamikaze... although I suppose that is never a problem for you!
