History

Jacob's Childhood

Birth and Infancy

Jacob Infinite was born on a cruise ship travelling from Austria to the States on May 12th, 1970. His mother went into labor a week earlier than expected, causing the end of Cassidy and Jack Infinite's Honeymoon. During their time in the states, Cassidy was confined to the Hospital at their location in Miami, Florida. Jack however could go about and do what he would, but he only went out a few times to bring back pictures and gifts for his nursing wife and son. It would be three weeks before they could return to Jersey (The Old one, it's a tiny island above France and under England. Part of the UK.)

During his first year of life, Jacob had discovered all the wonders of the world, in a baby's eyes at least. He discovered gravity, making a mess, more gravity, hugs and love, and still more gravity. He dropped everything he was given almost all the time. He just loved things falling, some more than others.

Early Childhood

At the age of two, Jacob learned what Death was. His father, Jack Infinite, was run over in a hit and run case. He was in the lower part of the city picking up dry-cleaning and produce when an oncoming Truck ran through a stop light and sped away after killing Jack. Cassidy was three month pregnant with another child at the time and Jacob was too young to help her with anything. Cassidy had gotten angry and smacked Jacob across the face after he kept on talking about how he was going to get the guy who killed his father. It was the first falling out they ever had. Cassidy regretted hitting her son like that and it really taxed her when Jacob would ignore her in anger. Jacob finally forgave her and cried his little heart out one night after she'd nearly collapsed from exhaustion.

Three weeks later his sister was born, Jessica Infinite. She was small and fragile, but she made it to her first birthday a year later. Jacob loved his sister and would sleep in the same room with her to make sure that the 'monsters' didn't get her. He would even try to feed her sometimes by giving her bits of cereal, one at a time. He was devastated the day he had to leave her...for school. Sure, Kindergarten was only a small portion of the day but he knew his sister and mother weren't there and he hated it.

While there, he never really got along with other kids and would tend to keep to himself. He was a good kid, just not very social. And most the other kids would treat him differently because of this. He tried to ignore them but often they'd get the best of him.

Grade School

Jacob and Jessica's mom, Cassidy, would re-marry at this time to Oliver Phillips. He was a single father with a son named Mark, whom was about Jessica's age. Jacob would become jealous of Mark as he hung out with their sister. He never did anything about it, but he never liked having to compete for her attention. She was HIS baby sister. For this reason, he often would half-acknowledge Mark.

When Jacob was in the sixth grade, Mark was being picked on by some other kids and was obviously hurt emotionally. Jacob felt horrible that his Step-Brother was being treated like this. He guessed he really didn't want Mark hurt and wanted him to be okay just like his sister. Jacob stood up to the bullies and went home with a black eye. Mark thanked Jacob for defending him and apologized for the black eye.

Moving to Florida

Oliver had found work over in the states and managed to get the family all packed and ready to move to Miami Florida. It was quite a coincidence that they went to live there. Jacob marveled at the place he was "born".

Shortly after moving in, Jacob and his siblings were integrated back into the school system and went about there lives.

High school

Jacob was consumed by his love for physics and would often lock himself away from everyone to study and learn about everything he could. Jessica and Mark tried to talk to him, but he had shoved them away as he'd shoved away his parents. He became completely Autonomous at the age sixteen and drove himself to school, the library, and a part-time job at a theoretical-physics lab to make some extra cash for his own projects. He would often be out for days before returning home for different reasons.

His mother felt heart broken that he'd only stop by for a few minutes, usually spent locked away. She often wondered why he worked so hard at the cost of shutting everyone out.

It got to the point where She had removed the Spark-Plugs on his car so that she could actually talk to him. He seemed impatient and irritated at her as she kept him from some unknown. It got worse and worse until she heard him yell four shocking words at her. 'To Be Like Dad.' He broke down and cried on her. Jack, her deceased spouse, had been studying to be a Physicist so he could quit his dead end job and make money for his family, before he passed away that is. Jacob had held onto this his whole life and was consumed by it when he found he could pick up and finish his Dad's dream. It had been eating him up inside and he'd not yet gotten over it.

Jacob's Early Adulthood

College and Early Work

Jacob was now working hard to become a Physicist and learn all he could without sacrificing his family. It was an awkward thing to do as Jessica was still angry at him for pushing them away while Mark was just a nervous guy who didn't know what to say or do about it.

Jacob always kept close to his mom through his education, made sure to check up on her and Oliver when he could. After a few years, Jacob had his Bachelors Degree in Physics and sought out his first real job. He soon found himself working with a skilled machinist named Quinton Westman. They were to design and create different things for the Military to use as Defensive Gear. Unfortunately, they didn't have enough time to perfect designs or build anything as Dr. Destroyer attacked in 1992.

Jacob was 22 at the time and had never seen such destruction and onslaught led by one man. His assault on Detroit had shadowed his Assault on California. When things had finally cooled down and re-stabilized itself, Quinton felt it was best that they taught each other about the other's profession in order to double their efforts and reduce the time to actually get a working proto-type before another attack like the one Destroyer pulled could happen.

Family Matters

Jessica Infinite

Jacob and Mark were surprised when Jessica told them that she was getting married to her boyfriend from High School, James Zumner. He was a brilliant man with very artistic creativity. He even made some money from selling his graphic novels he wrote. When they married, she kept her name and merged it with James' name to become Jessica Infinite-Zumner. When she was thirty-two, she gave birth to a baby girl whom they named after her. Jacob and Mark's Niece, Jessica Zumner the Second. She was a bundle of sunshine like her mother and was very creative like her father. They moved to Atlanta, Georgia for a fresh start on their lives.

Mark Phillips

Mark would not go very far in life. Not because he was inept, but because he was content with what he had. He would go to his job everyday at IHOP, cooking up delicious food and watching as his work would be devoured by hungry customers. He only ever had one complaint from a customer who was just, for what ever reason, just in a bad mood and looking to take it out on others. Mark decided to come out and talk to the guy to see if he could help make anything better, personally. The guy tried to take a few swings at Mark thinking he was just trying to make him look stupid, which he didn't need anyone's help to do, and Mark just punched him in the face. Everyone applauded as the guy left. Mark felt embarrassed and flattered at the same time as people would keep talking about him and that day. The guy turned out to be a jerk in the end and the police held him for a couple days for Civil Unrest after the event. Mark lives in a single apartment with his cat, Diamonds, who thinks she's the toughest little calico cat around, in Miami, Florida.

Parents

Oliver and Cassidy have moved to Arlington, Virginia and are living out retirement in a house that Jacob bought for them.

Oliver spends most of his time outside, working on his garden. He says he is the King of Cucumbers, the Sorcerer of Squash, the Tyrant of Tomatoes, the Paladin of Potatoes, and the list goes on. The point is he makes most of their meals from the produce in his garden.

Cassidy on the other hand, is found inside the house. She does a number of things to occupy her time, always waiting for the holidays to role around so that she may see her children once again. She was diagnosed as clinically depressed and Oliver has tried to help her get through it all. It was hard though, there was so much pain in her life since Jack had passed away. The killer had even gotten away and there was no closure. Oliver always tries to get a hold of Jacob and his siblings so that Cassidy can talk to them. It always makes her feel better.

Gravity Weapons

After finding out how "defensively" the gear Jacob and Quinton made would be used, Jacob had decided he didn't want any part of this work any more. He was thirty-nine years old and sick of how his government was spending their money. He and Quinton went their separate ways as he began to get funding and supplies for working with a special project. He had not entirely lied as he needed the suit he'd wear under his coat to make sure everything worked, but he never intended for the device he was making to work. Not how he promised anyway.

In the end, Jacob made off with a personal suit of under-armor with Gadroon Gravity Tech integrated into it while the Army got a giant shield that didn't let anything in or out. Defensive only, no way to change it. However they were still angry that Jacob made off with some of their property and set out to find him.

Over Seas

The search would be for not as Jacob went far beyond where they were looking. He had traveled to Ghana, Africa to conduct his own research and projects. He had not informed his family about his location because he didn't want them to be involved in the mess he was in. While here, he found a strange thing within him. Love.

Her name was Kamilla LaLonda. She was about the same age as Jacob at the time, whom was forty years old. She and he met at a small restaurant and talked a bit about what the other was doing. Kamilla turned out to be a Geologist examining the soil to see if they had any precious ores. She however hoped that she'd find where the soil was rich enough to plant flora, she got paid to examine the soil alone and was given extra for findings.

An Amazing Discovery

The Compound

Kamilla and Jacob went out on two more dates and were completely head over heals for each other. It was a beautiful romance. It was on the second date that Jacob offered to help Kamilla with her work if she helped with his. This was the unofficial third date for them.

After digging and examining an area marked, they had found nothing that would help them. Frustrated, Jacob blasted a burst of Gravitonic Energy at the ground and blew a hole to an underground cavern. How amusing it was that if he'd not lost his temper, things would be very different.

The two climbed down and examined the cavern, setting up support structures as they went deeper in. What they found deep inside was incredible. The walls were laced with a soft, green 'rock' that seemed to be 'growing' as it sat in the darkness. Kamilla estimated that this 'rock' was about two hundred years based on the surrounding rock. The odd thing about the cavern that they now realized was, it was just a pocket in the crust. Nothing could have formed it, there was no source for erosion. It baffled them until they came across something even more extraordinary than the 'rocks'. A rift in the fabric of reality was opened in the wall. It lead to another cave in a different world full of these green, soft 'rocks'. The two were quick to work as they examined and puzzled over the 'rock' which they labeled as 'The Compound'.

Pressure

Jacob and Kamilla rocked their brains as they tried to figure out what The Compound was. All they knew is that it could grow as samples closer to the rift were older than those farther away. One day, Jacob decided to try something. Out of boredom rather than a hypothesis. He put The Compound under immense pressure and found that it crystallized. He showed it to Kamilla and ran some tests on it. It gave off no signatures and seemed completely inert. It was then that Jacob had a crazy idea. He figured that it had no signature because it was like a battery without any juice. They charged The Compound with gravitonic energy from the Gadroon Tech on Infinite's armor and discovered that it not only held the energy but continued to make it. Jacob had discovered the first natural perpetual energy generator. For all existence he believed that the 'Infinitum', as he and Kamilla agreed on calling it, would continue to make more of the energy inside it and never run out. If given the right kind of energy, it could be used to power the whole world. He and Kamilla made another Infinitum crystal, but this time pumped it with electricity. Just like the gravitonic energy, the electrical energy infinitely increased.

Heart Break

Soon after the Electrical Infinitum was created, Kamilla seemed different. She told Jacob that this stuff was powerful, could make them powerful. He wanted to help the world and save it. She told him that they could rule the world with the Infinitum in their possession. That they could do whatever they wanted. They could fix the problems of the world, power, corruption, crime, economics, politics, by taking it over as King and Queen of earth.

Jacob's heart sank as she said this. He didn't want to do that. He couldn't believe she wanted to do that. He laughed meekly and waited until night.

It was about Three A.M. when Jacob went to work. He integrated the Gravity Infinitum into his suit as the power source, which not only increased power and performance of the gear, but also allowed for more frequent usage as he no longer needed to wait for it to recharge. Grabbing everything he could about the research he bolted, making sure he left nothing behind and destroyed it all. He was sad to leave Kamilla like this, but he couldn't deal with the fact that she wanted to be a power-mad ruler of earth.

He didn't realize that Kamilla had gone to bed with the Electric Infinitum and that she had copies of some of the research done on her laptop.

She was upset with him when she found out he left, but she still had power in her hands and knew how to use it. They would see each other again in the future...

Doctor Infinitum

Upon his return to the states, Jacob called his family to make sure they were all okay. He had a very long conversation with his mother whom he found out had a stroke when she heard about how he left. He felt guilty and was going to come up to visit them as soon as he smoothed things over. He headed over to Detroit (Millennium City) to see if he could reason with UNTIL about what had happened when he left when he got caught in the late Qularr Invasion. Turned out that he smoothed things over by just being there, helping citizens to safe zones and taking out Qularr. When the invasion ended, Jacob's AWOL seemed to be the last thing on their minds. So he left quickly, just in case, and spent two weeks with his Mom and Oliver.

He returned to Detroit (Millennium City) after a month and moved into a new home where he continues to study the Infinitum. He announced his discovery shortly after to UNTIL officials and told them that he would turn over the research after a bit more study, to make sure everything was correct. He never fulfilled this promise, but he always manages to worm his way out of it.

During this time, he uses it to fight corruption and super crime as Doctor Infinitum.

Research and Lore

Infinitum

In its most basic state, Infinitum resembles a dull green rock with a soft exterior. When put under extreme pressure (such as 2 or 3 atm), the Infinitum crystallizes and becomes some sort of holding case for energy. In addition to storing the energy, it will continue to duplicate the energy perpetually. However, it is not safe to just store energy and not drain it.

Depending on the sort of energy put into the Crystal, depends on the effects later caused by storing said energy. For example, Gravitonic Energy will cause the Infinitum to create its own gravity well after a time and, eventually, implode into a Black Hole. Electrical Energy may eventually explode out into a constant wave of lightning or set off a galaxy wide EMP.

So despite being able to create perpetual energy, it must be used constantly or risk the energies to become unstable and overloaded.

Some energies are thought to never overload though, such as radio waves, where they can continue to charge up and expand over infinity and only result in the frequency being full of static noise.

In its basic state, Infinitum "grows" in complete darkness. The reason for this is unknown, but it is goodto know if you wanted to "farm" the Compound. The world that Infinitum comes from has yet to be explored beyond the original cavern, which Infinitum and Power Surge both have a truce on to keep hidden from the rest of the world. Each for different reasons, but a common goal none the less.

Ephemeralite

It is unknown where Ephemeralite comes from, though it is hypothesized to be from the same world as Infinitum. The only one who knows anything about Ephemeralite is Professor Ephemeral, who uses Ephemeralite constantly.

Unlike Infinitum, Ephemeralite can only be used so many times before shattering apart and becoming useless. It is a black, crystalline form that emits a dark aura. It is believed that Ephemeralite is solid darkness, only used to destroy and consume.

It has a Magic base in contrast to Infinitum's Science base.

Nemesis Database

Power Surge

Kamilla.png

Kamilla LaLonda, Jacob's Love Interest, is Power Surge. She was the one who discovered Infinitum with him and suggested world domination for the good of all. When he fled, destroying all the research they had compiled the next day, she too was heart broken, and very angry at him. She returned home to her job, where she promptly quit after reporting she had found nothing of interest.

At first, she contacted a friend of hers to construct a gauntlet to shoot electricity out of it, using the electrically-charged Infinitum crystal as a power source. Eventually it turned into an entire suit which she used to advance her interests in dominating the earth.

She fought with Infinitum as his first nemesis and was defeated after her plan to launch an EMP across the globe failed.

Sent to Stronghold, Infinitum visits her from time to time. It was here that they came to a truce about making sure no one found the Infinitum Vein.

She is not a reformed villain, and often flirts with Jacob during fights to convince him to help her. But right now, she's taking it easy in Stronghold, possibly facing early release for good behavior.

King Infinity

KingInfinity.png

From an Alternate Earth where Jacob Infinite was the one to suggest world Conquest, King Infinity nearly succeeded but wound up thrown into our world.

Enslaving the Lemurians, and returning them to their primal form, he launched a campaign across the Globe. South America and Europe were the first to fall. When he moved up through the States, most of it was laid to waste before reaching his Millennium City, where he faced his Kamilla Lalonda (known as Thunderbolt)and several other heroes. Somehow the battle generated a shift in space/time which flung King Infinity into Doctor Infinitum's reality with a Legion of Lemurian Slaves.

At first the shift was disorienting and many of the Lemurians continued to attack everything out of panic. When it was apparent that not only were they assaulting the wrong city, but the wrong Earth, Infinity made the order to retreat.

For a Time, he was underground (literally), until the moment to strike was at hand. A Gravity Cannon, to be used to demolish the Earth's surface and rebuild a new empire where he would launch a campaign to not only finish his conquest on his Earth, but ALL Earths.

The Cannon imploded when Infinitum overloaded the systems and subsequently destroyed all hope of Infinity ever accomplishing his plans. The Jacob doppleganger is currently incarcerated in Hot Sleep at Stronghold.

Professor Ephemeral

Ephemeral.png

Another Alternate Infinitum from a world of chaos and anarchy. He cares little about world domination and only wants to destroy everything around him for fun. From a world where Anarchy reigns and ruling forms of Government were only small factions, Jakob Finite took an interest in the Dark Arts and became an enemy to nearly every ruling faction in the Detroit Province.

Assassination attempts on his life have been made and the most recent one was almost going to kill him if he had not decided to hop into a new world to destroy. It was by accident that he landed in his Orderly Do-Gooding alternate's universe. Using an easily manufactured but very fragile energy source known as Ephemeralite, Professor Ephemeral uses demonic minions to mindlessly wreck havoc where ever they go. While it shouldn't be difficult to track him by the path of destruction, his movements are capricious at best.

After his failed attempt to bring the Mandragalore back online, he hatched an insane idea to double his fun. He constructed a weapon capable of pulling dimensions together. Ephemeral planned to drag his dimension to earth and watch the added chaos reign and destroy everything.

He now resides in hot sleep at Stronghold after Infinitum stopped his plan.

The Tarantula
