<P ALIGN="Left">'''Once a brilliant physicist with a view for changing the world for the better, Malcolm Parton's life was changed forever when a freak accident caused him to fall into a highly experimental particle collider mid-collision. Though he should have been killed, an unknown variable caused the hyper accelerated particles to destroy and reconstruct Malcolm's body, merging with his physiology at a subatomic level. The process radically altered Mal, granting him the power to manipulate the very particles that make up the universe itself. Imbued with power beyond his wildest imagination, Mal vowed to use it responsibly in keeping with his pacifistic beliefs and became Captain Collider, the immeasurable Man Of The Millennium!'''</P>
  
'''Alex Harper is SPARROWHAWK, one of the world's most deadly combatants as well as a master in a multitude of skill sets. She was born to Alan Harper, a high ranking official of UNTIL who also was secretly involved with a shadowy organization known as the Apotheosis Project. Its purpose was to design and create superior human stock as a result of genetic engineering in order to rid the world of super human influence. Gifted with exceptional physical abilities, a mind that could recall things flawlessly as well as a talent for learning things quickly and effortlessly, Alex spent her childhood training under foremost experts in various fields of study. By adulthood Alex was poised to take a role in UNTIL, her father grooming her to eventually join his subversive cause. Alan's abduction by ARGENT changed this path and caused Alex to assume the guise of a masked hero in order to rescue him from their clutches. Alex remained a costumed crime fighter and chose to work beside the very heroes she unknowingly was raised to eliminate. After learning of the true reasons behind her birth, Alex denounced her father and had a direct hand in crippling the Apotheosis Project. Traveling the globe both as a solo operative as well as the leader of the Protectors of the World, Sparrowhawk wages war on injustice with unwavering perseverence.'''

<P ALIGN="Left">'''A gentle and reserved soul at heart, Captain Collider considers himself a scientist and human being first and a superhero second, always prioritising thought and diplomacy over unnecessary violence and confrontation. Though his levelheadedness makes him a hero among heroes, his idealistic pacifism occasionally borders on naivete. Still, with the potential for absolute power constantly present within him, Captain Collider strives every day to ensure it doesn't corrupt him absolutely.'''</P>

Born in San Francisco to renowned physicist Gerald Parton and medical doctor Regina Parton, Malcolm Franklin Parton was the middle of three children, his elder brother, Nicholas, and his yet to be born younger sister, Melinda. Born into well-educated, well-off family, Mal wanted for little and received all the love and support he needed from parents, siblings, friends and teachers growing up. From a very early age, the true value of companionship and community were instilled within him.

Alan Harper, one of UNTIL's most decorated and top field agents, led a double life. He was one of many who had a role in the '''Apotheosis Project''', a worldwide coalition designed to rid the world of super powered individuals and their influence over world affairs. To that end, Alan and nine other prominent families were selected in 1988 for a very special purpose within the organization. Each man's wife, unaware of both the affairs of the Apotheosis Project and each other, were falsely told they could not bear children without in vitro fertilization and complied. These ten embryos were taken and enhanced via positive genetic engineering then implanted all on the same day. Its purpose was to create offspring that were purely human in a technical sense while showcasing the actualized full potential that humanity was capable of.  Nine months later, all on January second, the women gave birth in various locales across the United States to healthy and 'perfect' children. Tragedy struck when Alan's wife Daphne suffered complications during the childbirth and died. Alan, nearly inconsolable, realized at least he still had his child and the promise of a new world before him. Naming his newborn '''Alexandra''', meaning 'Defender of Man', Alan joined with his nine colleagues in setting out to raise an exceptional child with even more than exceptional abilities.
+
Inheriting his father's natural genius, Mal showed a staggeringly high intellectual capacity very early in his childhood, especially with concern to the sciences. With his father's love of science and his mother's compassion for others, he would often spend his free time studying the world around him in the hopes that he could somehow use what little knowledge he possessed at the time to make the people in his life happier. Wherever there was a problem in his neighbouhood, a young Mal was never far behind with childlike inventions and a friendly disposition.

<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"My parents always used to tell me that if you had the potential to do something, you should always do good. It's a lesson not nearly enough people learn and even fewer remember, but it's one I live by." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
  
While most young girls had dolls and stuffed animals, Alex's days were filled with gun ranges, martial arts lessons and forensics studies. While most would be broken physically and mentally by this, Alex strove to live up to her father's very strict and domineering expectations. Alex exceeded her father's wildest dreams as she readily soaked up everything she was presented with. Alan realized quickly that her talents surpassed that of the other children which were born into the Apotheosis Project. She displayed uncanny physical and mental abilities that were far beyond the norm. Ready to begin her second phase of training, Alan called several contacts by way of his years with UNTIL. He started calling in favors... it was time for her training to get serious.
+
It wasn't long before Mal's timidity and general lack of malice quickly earned him the scorn of his first bully, however. The older boy, eager to punish what he perceived as arrogance in the young inventor, promptly singled him out and harassed him before eventually challenging him to a fight. Astonished by the boy's aggressive behaviour, Mal hurriedly reported what had happened to his parents. It was then that his father sat him down and told him the importance of both pacifism and knowing when to resort to violence.
  
Much of Alex's life growing up was spent primarily traveling about the world. Her father Alan would always refer to these typically two to three month periods spent in one location as 'vacations'. A 'vacation' in Thailand where she studied Silat Patani. Another 'vacation' in Guatemala learning about munitions and explosives. Yet another 'vacation' spent in Australia learning about various poisons and their effects on the human body. Three full years were spent at the ancient and mysterious Yengtao Temple, home of some of the worlds greatest martial artists where she mastered esoteric forms of combat. Alex was undaunted in her pursuit to be the best at whatever she put her mind to. Perhaps it was a desire to earn her father's love, or perhaps it was just her perfectionist attitude... either way, Alex learned a great deal about a great number of things.  
+
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"It was my father who first taught me the concept of pacifism, but he also taught me what it meant to stand up for what's yours -- to know when there's no choice but to get your hands dirty. Violence should never be the solution to your problems, but sometimes it has to be." - Captain Collider''</div></div>

 +
With his father's lesson weighing heavy on his mind, Mal decided to stand up to his bully and accept his challenge. Meeting him the playground after-school, Mal first offered to talk their differences out in the hopes that he could become friends with the boy. When the bully refused to accept his attempts at diplomacy, he readied himself and fought him head on. Though he was horribly outmatched and had no real chance of winning the fight, Mal#s insistence on not backing down eventually persuaded a group of older boys to stand up to the bully, scaring him away. Battered and bruised, Mal walked away from his first fight having learnt an important lesson from the actions of the boys who had interfered to help him.  
  
At seventeen years of age these so called 'vacations' subsided and Alex was allowed her first taste at a normal life: college. She struggled to fit in during those years though she did her best at participating in whatever she could. Though spending time with others her own age was in theory good for her socially she realized quickly she had nothing in common with them. She had a tendency for looking down upon her peers and not exactly endearing herself to those she was around. None of her experiences interested her and it lacked the intensity of her life previous. College was finished in only two years with Alex tackling an exceptionally large workload and still managing to earn magna cum laude with her school.   
+
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"There's always strength in numbers -- always. And so long as there are seven billion other men and women living on this planet, no one should ever have to fight alone." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
  
At the young age of nineteen and with college behind her, Alex secured a position within UNTIL as a junior agent and finally fulfilled her father's dream of having her follow in his footsteps. As in her youth, Alex displayed a strong need to prove her worth and excel in any task she was presented with. With relative ease due to this drive she assumed a place within UNTIL as a full agent. With the vast array of skills at her disposal due to her intensive training growing up, Alex found herself working as an operative for UNTIL often as a covert operations specialist. She found this quite fulfilling as she once again was being taken all across the world and facing off against all kinds of challenges. In her off time she found herself learning more skills to add to her considerable pool of expertise from whatever location she was stationed at.
+
Far away from his brother who favored the arts over science and his sister who simply preferred to socialise with her friends, Mal grew to become more and more enamoured with science and, before long, found himself studying one of the better high schools in the city, an honour roll student with aspirations of becoming a physicist like his father. There he met the woman who would go on to be the love of his life, fellow honour roll student Vanessa Morello. Though he was initially too shy to talk to her directly, he eventually mustered up the courage to approach her and found that they shared more common interests than he would have thought.
  
Shortly after her third year with UNTIL while abroad in the India, Alex received word that her father Alan had been abducted by ex members of the typically white collar crime organization known as '''ARGENT'''. She was distraught because she knew that UNTIL policy was quite clear: they would not be negotiating for Alan's release. This meant that her father was far from safe and his life was sadly expendable. Alex pleaded with her superiors to do anything but it fell on deaf ears. It was clear that UNTIL would not be assisting in ensuring her father's safety. Never being one to sit idly, Alex began to formulate her own plan. She quickly made her way back to the United States.
+
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"I was just a gangly, geeky kid back then. Vanessa loved me not in spite of that, but because of it." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
  
Alex chose to approach her good friend and UNTIL contracted agent and inventor, Simon Reynolds, for help. Simon gathered for her a number of items that she would need to undertake a personal mission. These devices included a flight disk, a pair of prototype bio electrical battle batons, a force field projector and several other devices he had been working on. The only thing that Alex still required to pull this off successfully was anonymity. It was a necessary measure in order to create a disguise to hide her affiliation with UNTIL as one of its agents. Taking inspiration from the colorfully named heroes that she sometimes worked alongside who had affiliations with UNTIL, Alex decided upon the nom de guerre '''Sparrowhawk'''. Staging a rescue at what was believed by most an abandoned ARGENT facility, Sparrowhawk successfully saved her father and delivered a severe beating to the perpetrators. Returning to UNTIL she was troubled by the events of her father's kidnapping. Alex realized was able to accomplish much more being slightly outside the law than constrained by it. In addition, the rush of battle was exhilarating in a way that her UNTIL missions had never fully been to her. Realizing that much more good could come from her maintaining this new identity she decided to continue as Sparrowhawk.
+
Becoming fast friends and, eventually, unlikely sweethearts, Mal and Vanessa both graduated from high school and attended Arcadia City University, with Mal studying to attain multiple PhDs in physics and Vanessa doing the same with chemistry. It was during their tenure at the university that a twenty-one year old Mal eventually proposed to Vanessa, hoping that they could start a life together once their studies came to an end. Overjoyed by Mal's proposal, Vanessa enthusiastically accepted. Once they graduated from Arcadia City University with their PhDs secured, Mal and Vanessa set a date for their wedding. The ceremony was a relatively small one attended mostly by a close circle of family and friends, but it would always be remembered as the happiest moment of Mal Parton's life.
  
Alex left UNTIL shortly after her decision to carry on as Sparrowhawk, much to her father's ire and displeasure. She felt that her second life as a costumed crime fighter interfered with her ability to devote herself fully to her job as an agent. Using money she had gained from her time with UNTIL and already having secured a lucrative amount of funds, Alex relocated to Millennium City to start a new phase in her life. Using her formidable intellect and intuition she had already invested in a number of companies since college and was able to live well within more than comfortable means. In just a short while with single minded dedication Alex was able to turn this around tenfold. It was not long before she went from merely 'comfortable' to 'extremely well off' financially, enabling her to then promote all of her energies into pursuing crime as a masked hero. This allowed her the time, money and focus to upgrade the items Simon Reynolds had given her as well as work on entirely new inventions to add to her arsenal.
+
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"In all my years, with all my scientific breakthroughs, nothing I've done has ever felt more right than asking Vanessa to marry me and reciting my vows at that altar." - Captain Collider''</div></div>

+
While Vanessa got a job working at an up and coming industrial science company called Steel Industries, Mal secured a job working within the physics lab of Arcadia City University both as a particle physicist and a trainee lecturer. In this position, he quickly established himself as a brilliant physicist with a bright future, helping to make a number of breakthroughs in the field of particle physics and gradually making a name for himself via his own personal discoveries and theories. One such theory would go on to form the basis of his life's work and would set into course events that would drastically influence his future: the theory of the 'Power Particle'.
  
During her early adventures Sparrowhawk crossed paths with a group known as the '''Silver Age Sentinels''', and it was through them she established a relationship with the agency known as '''GLOBE'''. Working with GLOBE allowed her to function much in the same capacity as she did with UNTIL, though it gave her the freedom of operating independently as well. It was during this time she crossed paths with and fought villains such as '''Valak the Undying''' and the technological genius and madman known as '''M.E.K.K.A.'''. Her other duties were more mundane, acting as a liaison between GLOBE and both the Sentinels and their more youthful counterparts the '''Young Sentinels'''. After a few months of working closely with them, Sparrowhawk wished for other venues to explore to broaden her abilities and do more for a greater cause. Sparrowhawk did not feel challenged in the role she was given and that her own skills were not being utilized to their fullest. After an incident involving the Sentinels, GLOBE and the unofficial gathering of heroes known as the '''Circle of Justice''', Alex struck out on her own, determined to make more of a difference. 
+
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"The Power Particle represented all that mankind could achieve -- a future so bright it was blinding. Imagine being able to cure terminally ill patients by giving them regenerative healing factors. What if we could give construction workers super speed or super strength? What if a little girl who has been stuck in a wheelchair her entire life could stand up and fly? With the Power Particle, I believed I had unlocked the secret behind the controlled activation of superpowers -- a common link between all superpowered individuals, regardless of origin. Limitless possibilities for anyone and everyone. That was the Power Particle." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
  
Sparrowhawk found herself quickly assuming a more proactive presence worldwide, taking missions both abroad as well as within her home of Millennium City. This placed her squarely within the super heroic community. Often this was a source of consternation and annoyance for her as she quickly realized how many heroes, though registered with PRIMUS, were without decent training or skills to aid them properly. Over time, however, she did meet others who she thought were capable in their crime fighting endeavors, at last making allies. Sparrowhawk grew close to Agent Nate Carter, United States agent known as '''All-Star''', as well as a smattering of other heroes, such as '''Dobergirl''', '''Doll''' and '''Zelara''', the Laser Knight. She later joined a group called '''Rising Force''' at the urging of All-Star, though its run was admittedly short and ended before it even really began. As it folded, Alex realized that there was still a need for such a team and her abilities gave her an edge in coordinating such an effort. Thus a large step towards her personal goals of effectively tackling crime globally came from her formation of the '''Protectors of the World'''. This was an UNTIL- affiliated organization of super heroes who joined together to battle numerous threats no one hero could face. In it she recruited what she felt were the 'best of the best' of those whose paths had crossed hers since her career began, and the team earned a solid status as peacekeepers and global heroes. During this time Sparrowhawk continued to venture around the world on her own, independently battling numerous threats with her abilities and continuing to build upon her reputation as an international premiere heroine.
+
Quickly becoming a popular name for his various theses and books on the Power Particle, it wasn't long before Mal received the support he needed to turn his theory into a reality. Approaching the bold, young physicist with an offer of his own lab stocked with resources, a team of diligent physicists at his disposal and all the money he needed to make sure he made the most of them, Olivier Martin, President and CEO of Unlimited Dynamics, enlisted Mal's brilliant mind in the search for his much vaunted Power Particle. Though Mal was originally reluctant to enter a partnership with the fast-talking, pampered businessman, he eventually saw that he truly wished to make the world a better place and agreed to work at his company, establishing a professional and personal friendship that would span throughout the following years.
  
When Alex Harper turned twenty five, the Apotheosis Project was at last ready for action. They felt it was time for their children, willing or not, to join them removing all super human presence upon Earth. The Project was prepared to wage an all out assault on those who maintained super powers and as such decided to finally call their gifted children home to assist them. The Apotheosis Project's first order of business was to jump start the latent DNA enhanced talents of their children above and beyond the already incredible traits they each displayed. Some of the children were aware for years of the organization's cause and readily agreed to partake. Others, like Sparrowhawk, were not... and thus force was used as well as a neural implant that controlled their actions. Abducted, brutalized and implanted with a mind not her own, Sparrowhawk spoke out against heroes with superhuman traits as a fledgeling heroine called '''Virago''' in public addresses. She was also forced to turn on her allies in the Protectors, wounding several of them gravely while kidnapping Dobergirl for testing of a 'gene bomb' designed to kill those with aberrant DNA which was not human. Though herself a prisoner to the Apotheosis Project, she was eventually able to shake free of their mental control. Freeing Dobergirl and other heroes brought to a facility in South America, Sparrowhawk also retrieved information pertaining to the groups overall plan. While escaping, Sparrowhawk was almost killed from both the neural device implanted in her trying to wrest control mentally as well as a severe beating from another child of the Apotheosis Project who called himself '''Cassowary'''. Sparrowhawk fortunately recovered after being rescued by the Protectors and was later saved by the hero known as '''Mad Dog''' when an assassin attempted to kill her while in the hospital. Sparrowhawk managed to rejoin her team just in time to lead a strike force to deactivate gene bombs which were planted underneath Millennium City. They were successful, as failure would have resulted in the bombs wiping out and killing most of the super heroes who were locked in a battle with the villain '''Leviathan'''. The events of this plot to discredit and kill meta humans as well as the ascension of the genetically enhanced children of the Apotheosis Project is widely known as '''The Eugenics War'''.

I knew that about him almost immediately." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
  
By the time the war was over, Millennium City was in shambles, the Protectors were fragmented and Sparrowhawk was viewed by many in the super heroic community as a traitor for her perceived actions under mind control. To add insult to injury, her partner, All-Star, falsely believing Sparrowhawk was working against the Protectors, began an affair with the team's PR liaison, Ada Clover... all while Alex was under the thrall of the Apotheosis Project. Though Sparrowhawk had issues with their relationship, it was nevertheless a blow to her emotionally. She realized that not even the person closest to her understood who she really was, though some of the blame fell on Alex herself for maintaining a life full of secrets. Sparrowhawk took a short leave of absence from the team to concentrate on taking down the remnants of her father's organization and reassess her life. The next few months were dedicated solely to toppling the Apotheosis Project and gathering intel on them wherever she could.

Tragedy struck unexpectedly in Mal's personal life, however. After returning home from a day at Steel Industries completely exhausted, Vanessa suddenly collapsed and was rushed to the hospital by a panicked Mal. Once there, the couple were devastated to find out that she had somehow contracted an extremely rare disease for which there was no known cure. She was given roughly three years to live. Consumed by grief and unwilling to accept the fact that Vanessa might die, Mal single-mindedly devoted himself to unlocking the Power Particle in the hopes that he could harness its power to cure his ailing wife.
  
It took that time away for Alex to realize she had turned away from the only family she had only really known, that of the Protectors, and she needed to confront her issues head on. Returning to Millennium City, Sparrowhawk upgraded her weapons, her costume and her gear for a new approach on crime. Her new arsenal was not the only thing Alex returned with, either. Though she suffered horrors from her time with the Apotheosis Project, one benefit was discovered. With the untapped potential of her latent DNA being unveiled, Sparrowhawk realized was now smarter, quicker and stronger than before... her prowess unmatched by human standards. She was more than happy to reap these benefits to the cause of justice. She returned to the Protectors taking her place again as leader, prepared to once more tackle the worst menaces this world has seen.

 +
As the months went by, Mal's attempts at unlocking the Power Particle met wall after infuriating wall as Vanessa continued to grow ill. As Mal's pursuit of the perfect 'cure' to her condition became obsessive and self-destructive, Vanessa implored him to stop his research, accept her mortality and spend what little time he had left with her. Outraged by what he saw as her willing resignation to the inevitability of mortality and irritable from a great many sleepless nights, Mal lashed out at her in anger. Ashamed of his outburst, he retreated deeper into his work and refused to see Vanessa again for fear of losing his will to finish it.
  
With a renewed sense of self, Sparrowhawk continues to fight the good fight, both as leader of the Protectors and as a world traveling solo heroine in her own right.

Mal increased his work hours and devotion to the Power Particle over the next year, even inventing a robotic assistant named QUARK to help reduce his workload. Eventually though, as if through sheer determination, his efforts bore fruit with the creation of the world's first Power Collider -- a particle accelerator that he hoped would uncover the mystery behind the Power Particle through the collision of accelerated particle rays. On the precipice of finally proving the legitimacy behind his life's work and saving Vanessa from the claws of fate, Mal wasted no time in trying to put the grand machine to practice.

With his life's work finally coming to a head, Mal worked up the nerve to visit Vanessa at the hospital again. Though he attempted to mend bridges with her and excite her with the possibility of a cure, Vanessa -- who had been wounded both by his previous outburst and his lack of emotional support over the last year of her life -- did not reciprocate his enthusiasm and, instead, revealed that the doctors had shortened her life expectancy to sometime within the coming weeks. Taken aback, Mal expressed an intention to redouble his efforts, but Vanessa stated that she'd prefer it if he would abandon his frenzied pursuit to save her and simply keep her company in her final days. Though Mal wanted nothing more than to make Vanessa happy, he refused to give up so close to a breakthrough and, wracked with guilt and self-loathing, left the woman he had devoted his life to sobbing in a hospital room alone.

Within a week, the preparations for the initial activation of the Power Collider had been made. An gallery of esteemed scientists, interested investors, Unlimited Dynamics board members and a few representatives of the media gathered to observe history in the making. With the weight of the world on his heavy shoulders, Mal started up the Power Collider and watched with bated breath as it began to pull humanity into a new age in a brilliant flash of light.

Almost too suddenly to comprehend the situation, the Power Collider began to fluctuate wildly out of control, its collisions shaking the entire laboratory violently. As Mal hurried to find a solution to the problem, the audience and scientists were trapped in the lab by falling debris. Though he was initially unwilling to give up on his dreams, Mal quickly changed his mind on seeing the lives of others endangered and, in a bold act of heroism and redemption for his mistakes, he climbed to the upper level of the lab and attempted to hit the emergency shut down switch. As he slammed the button, however, the walkway he stood on gave way beneath him, sending him hurtling into the path of the Power Collider's accelerated particle beams just as it fired off one final time. As the beams collided with him on either side, Mal Parton ceased to be, exploding in a flash of blinding light and leaving only an echoing scream in his wake. As the machine shut down due to his efforts, every person in the room watched in horror as the man behind it was disintegrated before their very eyes.

Roughly a month later, as Olivier Martin and QUARK oversaw the clean up of what was left of the late Mal's lab, the former lingered for a moment on the deactivated Power Collider and ran a sentimental hand across its surface. As he reached a certain point, however, a jolt of electricity arced out and zapped his hand as he recoiled in pain, the Power Collider reactivated itself seemingly of its own volition. Before anyone in the room could react, however, the machine collided two accelerated particle beams and, with an explosive shockwave of light and sound, a form assembled itself out of particles within the light. As the Power Collider once again deactivated itself, the hulking form stumbled from its origin point. Though he was far more muscular and nude than he had been the day he 'died', the form was, without a doubt, the late Mal Parton.

Alex Harper would be described by many as a strikingly attractive woman who appears to be in her early to mid twenties. Her build is noticeably toned from intensive exercise but not overly so. She stands 5'8" and weighs around 140 pounds. An air of confidence exudes in the way she walks, talks, carries and composes herself which can be at times intimidating to others. Her blonde hair is currently worn in a spiky pixie cut of sorts, framing her face. Alex speaks with a somewhat deep, smoky voice and sometimes pauses in her speech to reflect on what she is saying. The clothes she wears are generally in the latest trends, appearing to pay a good deal of attention to current fashion. Rarely is she seen in very casual wear and prefers wearing heels to sneakers or blouses and skirts to tee shirts and jeans.
+
Though Mal appeared to possess the same memories and basic physical features he had prior to falling into the Power Collider and being atomised, his body had been completely altered during the reconstruction process. Going from a lean, brown-eyed 5'11" man, he was 'reborn' a 6'4W man with extremely dense musculature and glowing blue eyes matching the hue of the Power Collider's particle beams, the sides of his hair unnaturally whitened. Dazed and confused by his recent 'reincarnation', Mal's first thoughts immediately went to Vanessa. Pulling on a lab coat and pushing past Olivier and QUARK, Mal ran out of the building and onto the streets so he could get to the hospital as quickly as possible.
  
As Sparrowhawk, Alex alternates between two uniforms. Currently she utilizes a primarily black, skin tight light body armored suit with large, stylized blue plating on the chest front. A black belt sits low upon her waist, mostly carrying numerous pouches that house gadgets and weaponry for which she uses to fight crime. Two padded shoulder protectors adorn her upper body to offer protection. Sparrowhawk wears two tight metallic black gauntlets that have a soft blue light illumination to them at certain points. A black half face mask protects her identity that has a blue eyepiece over it. White lenses on the mask obscure her actual eyes. Secured about her right leg a pouch is strapped about that contains even more crime fighting devices. When her gauntlets are activated, two intensely azure hued energy batons are formed in each of her hands that act like escrima sticks.

As he emerged onto the streets of Arcadia, however, Mal's senses were overwhelmed by things he shouldn't have been capable of perceiving. The sounds of voices whispering and shouting from miles away boomed in his ears like loudspeakers. His vision wavered between clearly fixating on objects too distant to usually observe and seeing through solid surfaces as if they were made of glass. His nose caught whiffs of the lunch time rush in Chinatown several blocks away and the salt water of the sea on the coast of the town. In complete agony, Mal attempted to run towards the hospital to get away from it all, only to break the sound barrier and crash headfirst through a store window; and as he pushed himself up and attempted to jump back through the opening he had made, he propelled himself into the air and came crashing back down in a heap, beams of energy firing from his eyes and into the ground wildly. Whatever had happened to Mal between his being disintegrated and being reconstituted had changed him.

With his wits restored, Mal carefully made his way back to Unlimited Dynamics' HQ and requested that Olivier have scientists examine him. Further study of Mal's physiology quickly yielded rather shocking results. For all his altered looks and musculature, the most radical change to his body came at a more subatomic level: indeed, his blood, bone marrow and even saliva all radiated a unique type of energy which indicated that the very building blocks of his body themselves had been manipulated and warped to a significant degree. In his effort to create the Power Particle, Mal had seemingly become a living conduit of Power Particles. The unique subatomic particle had become bonded with his physiology on an intimate level, granting him vast powers which may have been the result of the subconscious manipulation of particles, influenced by the superiority of the Power Particle. In short, though Mal's life's work had born fruit, all known Power Particles were currently trapped within his body, unable to be used for the benefit of anyone else while simultaneously granting him tremendous power.

Still desperate to meet his wife, Mal refused to allow Olivier's scientists to detain him for further study and insisted that his friend informed him of the time lapsed between his 'death' and 'rebirth' and the status of Vanessa's condition. Though he seemed reluctant to tell his friend the truth when he seemed so unstable, Olivier eventually relented and revealed that Vanessa had died of her illness a few days after hearing the news of Mal's supposed death, seemingly losing the will to go on after the news. Crestfallen at the fact that he had been unable to save the one person he had set out to save above all others, Mal solemnly agreed to further study of his abilities on the sole condition that he'd be allowed to visit Vanessa's grave and his parents afterwards. Olivier sympathetically agreed.

With the study of his altered physiology complete, Mal used the data gathered to create a 'stabilisation suit' capable of both regulating his powers and preventing the small but dangerous chance that the Power Particles in his body could become super dense and explode into a black hole with excessive use. Once his stabilisation suit was finished, Mal donned it, covered it with a layer of street clothes and, with Olivier at his side, journeyed to the cemetery where Vanessa was buried. There, he encountered her parents and, after a heartfelt moment of reconnection, reconciled with them for the mistakes he had made while Vanessa was alive.
  
There are two very different sides to Alex Harper, Sparrowhawk.
+
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"They told me she loved me, that she never truly resented me for what I did and I believed them.

Alex Harper comes across as a very insightful, well-spoken, perceptive and pleasant young woman to those who meet her. Often she can be found multi tasking and it is not uncommon for others to notice her learning a new language, exercising and dealing with her business ventures all at once. Some mistakenly believe that she is distracted when speaking to her due to the numerous things she handles at once. Alex comes across as proper and polite to a fault and carries herself as one would who might have attended a finishing school. When speaking to others she often pauses mid sentence as if to reflect on what she is going to saying. Alex enjoys joking with peers, engaging with a very sarcastic and cynical dry wit. Alex generally can more often than not come across as somewhat aloof and unapproachable which has garnered her a reputation of sorts as an 'ice queen'. A slight smile will from time to time escape her lips however that can put most people at ease almost immediately. Alex is very aware of her physical beauty and has no qualms about using this to her advantage in social situations. While not engaging in flirtations actively she has no shortage of male admirers.
+
After saying some final words to Vanessa and apologising for not being there for her when she most needed him, Mal broke down emotionally,convinced that he was a fool who had deluded himself into thinking he had the power to save anyone. Though Vanessa's parents assured him that he could still use his genius for good, Mal remained unconvinced and left with Olivier after recomposing himself.  
  
When in action as Sparrowhawk, Alex's demeanor goes through a definite change. She becomes aggressive and authoritative, often taking charge in situations. Sparrowhawk is very goal oriented and has a no nonsense approach to overcoming obstacles and leading others. Her focus becomes almost obsessive and anything that disrupts it will be dealt with quickly and efficiently. Her early years in the super heroic community earned her some well deserved ire as she readily demeaned and belittled peers who were not up to her standards or way of thinking. Thankfully, this perception has lessened over time and Sparrowhawk has seen the value of others contributions, especially now that she leads her own team. This is not to say she has developed the patience of a saint, as eye rolling is still a frequent habit that she employs when dealing with things that bother her. Sparrowhawk is extremely confident in her abilities almost to the point of arrogance, especially in combat. While engaged in melee, Sparrowhawk takes satisfaction in mocking her opponents as they fight, partially because it rattles them but also because she finds it extremely amusing. Alex Harper respects the law, although she also realizes that sometimes certain rules must be bent or broken to achieve a victory. This ideology has put her at odds with others, including some team mates, from time to time. While she values the sanctity of human life, and feels heroes should not kill, Sparrowhawk herself also believes that sometimes the greater good means that a life must be taken when left with no other options. Sparrowhawk's greatest issue is dealing with is the concept of losing, which she takes always takes very personally.

Both of these sides are due to Alex's unique and incredibly strict upbringing by her father, which accounts for the way she acts. From early childhood her life was spent traveling the world in the company of adults to be primed essentially as a human weapon. Denied the type of life most children have, Alex does not have a well rounded idea of what being carefree means. While trained to socially fit in, and can do very well, Alex herself is fairly introverted and uptight. Left on her own, the majority of her time is spent researching new things to add to her already impressive skills or crime fighting. Little to no time is left for real social engagements, and it has only been in recent times that Alex has made an effort to 'let her hair down' with the Protectors in any fashion. Alex struggles with trust issues, and more times than not conducts her affairs both personal and professional without letting others know about them, preferring to remain a bit enigmatic. As far as romantic relationships, Alex is currently single and in no hurry to date. With the extremely active lifestyle she maintains it is not high on her list of priorities.

As Olivier's limousine made its way over the Arcadia City's Hyperion Bridge on its way to San Francisco, the sudden arrival of a group of conspicuous motorcyclists raised alarm bells for both men -- especially when they closed in on an armoured truck a few cars away. Before either of them could come to terms with what they were seeing, the motorcyclists drew firearms and opened fire on the armoured truck, hoping to stop and loot it. Caught off-guard by the daring robbery, Olivier's hit the breaks, sending the car spiralling out of control and leaving it teetering precariously on the edge of the bridge.

After recovering from his initial panic, Mal mustered his courage and, with a mighty kick, booted the crushed door of the limousine off its hinges, allowing Olivier to crawl to safety. With that done, he hurriedly followed his friend out and pulled the limousine and its driver back safely onto the bridge. After ensuring that they were both fine, he looked to the high speed chase between the motorcyclists and the armoured truck, which had just crashed into a divider. Taking great care to measure his steps, Mal darted over to the scene at super speed and, just as one of the motorcyclists dismounted his bike and prepared to execute the dazed truck driver, dove between the would-be robbers and the innocent driver, the bullets of the shooter's discharged firearm ricocheting off his chest. As the shooter attempted to reload, Mal raised a hand and flicked him under his chin, sending him flying into a nearby car. As the other motorcyclists circled back around and opened fire on Mal, he rushed to meet them head on, snatching both of them off their bikes at high speed and tossing them helplessly to the floor. Much to his surprise, however, one of the motorcyclists fired off his weapon, wounding the driver of an oncoming tanker and sending the vehicle hurtling towards everyone. Buckling his legs, Mal leaped to meet the tanker and stood firmly in its path, gradually stopping its uncontrolled rampage with his bare hands. When the dust had settled and the emergency services had arrived, Mal PArton stood over three would-be robbers, stopping the wounded driver's bleeding and wearing nothing but his stabilisation suit. He had saved the day.

After answering questions for the authorities, Mal and Olivier finally arrived at his parents' place in San Francisco, albeit with fewer limousine doors than they had departed with. Leaving Olivier in the limo, Mal greeted his overjoyed parents, neither of which had truly believed he was gone. After sitting down and catching up on events he had missed and Vanessa's funeral, Mal confessed to both his parents that his accident had given him some sort of powers and that he had used them earlier to save lives. However, he also professed that he had no idea what the future held for him with Vanessa gone and his research having taken a strange turn. Fortunately, both Partons had thoughts on the matter.

Saying goodbye to his parents, Mal returned to Olivier's limo and confided in him that he wanted to start using his powers for the good of mankind while still pursuing the full potential of the Power Particle and physics in a more general sense. Though Olivier was initially reluctant, he believed that the best way to do both things was to 'come out' as a superhero, allowing him to become an identifiable public figure of inspiration while still enabling him to pursue scientific inquiry as Mal Parton. Pondering the idea, Mal argued that, with his powers being as potentially vast as they were, he wanted to ensure that there would always be accountability for his actions and that everyone knew who he was and where his allegiances stood. This would both ease public opinion of him and reduce his potentially larger-than-life presence. Ever the opportunist, Olivier suggested that Mal premiere as a corporate sponsored hero, a representative not just of Unlimited Dynamics' goal to usher in a better future, but also as a symbol of that future -- the way things could and should be. Agreeing, Mal specified that he wanted his symbol to be an atom, representing the limitless possibilities of a single individual, regardless of how small or insignificant that individual might be. By the time the limo arrived at Unlimited Dynamics' HQ, both men had agreed on just what it was they wanted to achieve with the idea and began working on perfecting it.

Using Unlimited Dynamics' test grounds to train and explore the potential of his powers, Mal developed his already known powers of super strength, durability, speed and sense while picking up others such as his various energy and radiation blasts and particle vision along the way. At the same time, QUARK worked on developing a more streamlined, mobile stabilisation suit and Olivier began to figure out how to 'sell' the would-be superhero. After months of preparation, all three parties came together with their progress and, together, they gave birth to a new breed of superhero.

Her wide array of talents are the result of her ability to learn at an accelerated rate, mastering things in a fraction of the time others would normally be able to. What may take years of training or research for a normal person she can learn in a month or two, provided she has the time to solely dedicate herself to it. This has provided her with a well-rounded skill set few others can boast.

In the next few weeks, the annual Arcadia City Science Expo was staged at the Wonderdome. It was here that Mal would make his debut after much preparation. As Unlimited Dynamics took the stage, so too did their new star player. In a star-studded introduction heralded by music and fireworks, Mal Parton revealed to the entire world that he was not only alive and well, but better than ever. Swooping in from on high with a flowing cape and glowing eyes, Mal premiered as the unstoppable Man of the Millennium, the Mighty Man of Molecules: Captain Collider.
  
* '''Hyperthymestic Memory''': Sparrowhawk was born with hyperthymesia, a medical condition which allows an individual complete autobiographical memory. While those with eidetic or photographic memory often have to study something, use mnemonic tools, or even forget certain things as years go by, Alex has complete recall of her entire personal history. She can recite even the most trivial details from any part of her life, starting from shortly after her third birthday. This ability, compounded with her intelligence and quick learning, gives her the ability to take in, process and retain a great deal of information.

In the coming months, Captain Collider went on to prove himself a hero worthy of his grandiose introduction. Flying high over Arcadia City, he devoted himself body and mind not only to fighting the various super criminals plaguing his home, but also to everyday criminals such as muggers, burglars and crime bosses. In addition, Captain Collider also contributed his powers and skill set to helping to further scientific inquiry both as his heroic alter-ego and as Mal Parton, promoting ideals of progress forward thinking, not violence. He has created a dome on the uppermost level of Unlmited Dynamics' HQ which serves as his base of operations and regularly allows civilians to approach him there with individual problems when not out on patrol or on some parallel world.
  
* '''Physical Attributes''': Alex's strength and dexterity are at a level of functioning that exceeds even the most well trained regular human without actually being defined as superhuman. Her improved musculature allows her to bench press six times her weight, around eight hundred and fifty pounds, unaided. She possesses the ability to run close to forty miles a hour, clear a running jump of forty five feet and a high jump of around fifteen feet. In a non pure oxygen aided environment, Sparrowhawk can hold her breath for up to 20 minutes (and around 40 minutes with oxygen beforehand). With a body and mind which work in tandem, Sparrowhawk displays instantaneous reaction time. Her mental chronometry is greater than any normal human which grants her a form of low level super speed in her actions. Bullets can be dodged at point blank range or she can strike an opponent several times before their brains even can process a singular reaction. The incredible level of agility and durability she has combined with years of combat training allow her to withstand blows from much stronger opponents and continue to fight. Her heightened endurance allows her to fend off natural toxins that impair the body from fatigue and stress. Sparrowhawk's immune system is enhanced, allowing her to fend off most diseases, illnesses or things that impair the body such as drugs. While not as fancy or as powerful as true super human regeneration, wounds heal about three times as fast as a normal persons will; for example, a broken bone can heal in roughly two weeks instead of six. All of Alex's senses have been improved greatly. It has been stated that she will have a much longer life expectancy than an average woman provided she doesn't get herself killed before then.

<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"If you have the potential to do anything, it's your responsibility to do good. Thanks, dad." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
  
* '''Combat Abilities''': Sparrowhawk's extensive knowledge in martial arts would most likely place her on a shortlist as one of the world's deadliest hand to hand combatants. Where a person can spend years mastering just one form of unarmed combat, Sparrowhawk's very unique talent at learning things quickly and flawlessly has enabled her to tackle many. Utilizing her batons, Sparrowhawk specializes in using Eskrima, Silambam, Bokator, Adi Murai, Kobudo and Kalaripayattu in combat. She has mastered and integrated numerous other forms into her fighting style as well, including Karate, Wing Chun, Krav Maga, Systema, Muay Thai, Jeet Kun Do, Jiu-Jitsu, Keysi, Shippalgi, Silat, Aikido and more. Sparrowhawk's abilities go even further, having knowledge of such esoteric techniques like Marma Adi/ Varma Kalai and Dim Mak. By understanding prana points and how to suppress and block the flow of chi in others, Sparrowhawk can incapacitate, disable or kill by simple touch. Such an ability is even effective against those who would be deemed 'invulnerable' by powers such as super dense skin, often allowing her the upper hand to defeat what would be considered much more powerful foes. With this intimate knowledge of a body's vital points she is also by the same means able to heal certain afflictions or wounds. Her years of training have enabled her to be proficient in a vast array of weaponry, both standard and esoteric. A former Soviet spetsnaz agent trained her in a dual wield style of gun combat which she often employs.
+
Now twenty-nine years old, but seemingly immune to the effects of aging, Mal Parton has been Captain Collider for just over three years. In that time, he has encountered and thwarted a number of supervillains, cosmic entities, interdimensional conquerors and even time travellers to tirelessly push the boundaries of science and heroism as best he can. He has built a reputation for himself in Arcadia City to the point where an entire section of the Wonderdome has been dedicated to the science behind his powers. Still, as the mystery behind the true origin of Power Particles begins to become clearer, the future impact of their discovery and Captain Collider's ultimate effect on all humanity become increasingly more dubious. Can one man completely change the future, even if he is a super man? And if so, what can he do to make that future one worth fighting for?
  
* '''Chi Abilities''': Sparrowhawk has learned to control and manipulate her body's chi, enabling her other abilities. By concentrating she is able to further enhance her dexterity, speed or physical strength in bursts to (low) superhuman levels. She can actually punch or kick through metal when in a focused state. Her running speed can reach up to 70 mph for a few seconds. Attacks can be dealt in rapid succession faster than the human eye can take in. Sparrowhawk's chi passively provides her with a functioning 'sixth sense'. This talent allows her to fight unaided in darkness, detect those who are invisible, or even sense incoming opponents using teleportation in her immediate proximity. Things from the spirit plane can at times be observed. By having control over her body, Sparrowhawk can maintain her body temperature in very hot or cold environments for extended lengths of time. Poisons in her system can be slowed in her bloodstream and she can survive without food or drink for extended periods of time if in meditation.
+
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"A lot of people think I wear an atom on my chest because of my powers and their source, but that's not why. The atom, so small and insignificant at a glance, holds within itself unlimited potential. For growth, for change, for progress -- for the future. And when all those little particles come together, they're capable of creating anything and everything. To some my emblem is just a form of identification: to me, it's a philosophy." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
  
* '''Combat Assessment/ Reading Body Language''': Sparrowhawk has the ability to size up opponents, plan out the battle in completely in her head and execute a proper attack with frightening accuracy within seconds given that she has seen her opponent fight before. She also has the ability to 'read' subtle clues in a person's body in a fight, allowing her to both attack and defend against foes, even those possessing heightened reflexes. It is incredibly difficult for others to actually lay a hand on her. Sparrowhawk has mastered using her perceptive abilities to discover weak points in targets. This often 'levels the playing field' against combatants who severely outclass her, allowing her the chance to gain an upper hand. On more than one occasion she has been underestimated only to come out on top.
+
='''''<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #002f63">Powers</div>'''''=
  
* '''Skill Sets''': Sparrowhawk has received training from individuals who are foremost experts, specialists and even super heroes in many fields of study who have been associated with UNTIL. Alex is an accomplished detective and spy. A few of her other talents include: survivalist, disguise artist, medic, escape artist, pilot, driver, historian, computer expert and is well versed in numerous fields of science. She is trained at both hypnotherapy and stage hypnosis and can actually implant post hypnotic suggestions in others' minds. Sparrowhawk continues to work at expanding her repertoire of skills in addition to her crime fighting pursuits.
+
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"Well, I don't really like to throw mine around..." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
  
* '''Expert Tactician''': Sparrowhawk's incredibly sharp and focused mind as well as an unerring eye for detail lends itself to make her an amazing tactical leader. Aided by her keen perceptive abilities, she can process scenes quickly and coordinate multiple strategies in combat on the spot. It is in these times that Sparrowhawk keeps a cool, level head, aiding not only her but her team mates in getting through high stress situations.
+
==Particle Manipulation==
 +
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"Particles are the building blocks of all creation. They make up everything we understand to be real and, more than likely, everything we suppose to be real too. And through the manipulation of those particles, I can do a lot of good or a lot of bad. Don't worry -- I'll stick to the former." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
  
* '''Telepathic Resistance''': Telepaths and those with psionic abilities will have a difficult challenge attempting to breach her mental defenses. She has spent time with experts in such subjects on how to best prevent and avoid mental attacks, not to mention she has an amazing amount of willpower.
+
As a result of the '''Power Collider''' deconstructing his body and reconstructing it with an infusion of '''Power Particles''' in his molecular structure, Captain Collider is c'''apable of manipulating particles of all kinds to various effects.''' Though the vast cosmic potential for absolute power which stems from such a potent ability is enough to give anyone a cause for concern, Captain Collider's control over the particles in his own body and the particles of those around him are severely restrained by both the human brain's comparatively small capacity compared to those of more cosmic beings and his own narrow purview of what constitutes as reality and fiction, limiters present in most human beings. As a result, '''his mastery over particles is both crude and simple.''' In addition to this weakness, '''Captain Collider also abhors the use of excessive violence and completely strays away from the use of more destructive applications of his power, rarely even exploring ones which only serve to destroy.''' This means that entire branches of his particle manipulation go completely ignored. As time passes by, however, '''Captain Collider refines his own powers through concentration and training, pushing the boundaries of his own potential to new highs.'''
  
* '''Poison Resistance''': Sparrowhawk is practiced at mithridatism. Over several years of limited exposure she has built up tolerance to some types of poison. Certain types of venomous animals and naturally found poisons either have only a limited effect or in fact no effect upon her body, as she has developed immunity to them.
+
'''Currently, Captain Collider is able to use his powers of particle manipulation to achieve the following sub-powers:'''
  
*'''Stealth''': Sparrowhawk is a trained Kunoichi. Among her talents is the ability to quickly blend in shadows and appear unseen to the naked eye.
+
===Atomic Manipulation===
 +
*'''Atomic Energy Projection'''
 +
*'''Atomic Fists'''
 +
*'''Atomic Breath'''
 +
*'''Atomic Dissociation'''
  
* '''Hyperpolyglot''': Sparrowhawk displays an uncanny knack for speaking several languages. She is fluent in French, Italian, German, Bengali, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Japanese, Mandarin and Hindi as well as being proficient in American Sign Language. Sparrowhawk can also speak a few other languages conversationally.
+
Perhaps the most conventionally destructive branch of Captain Collider's powers, atomic manipulation allows him to manipulate matter on an atomic level. For obvious reasons, his general influence over such a devastating power is crude and limited, only manifesting itself in the ability to project and manipulate atomic energy in a handful of ways, such as firing concentrated beams of atomic energy from his hands, capable of heating up or blowing up anything on the receiving end. The most advanced application of Collider's control over atoms is atomic dissociation, which effectively allows him to undo the atomic bonds in objects to reduce them to fine particles -- or 'atomise' them. He has never tried to use it on a living creature and doubts he ever will.
  
<br>
+
===Energy Manipulation===
 +
*'''Particle Vision'''
 +
*'''Energy Projection'''
 +
*'''Energy Fists'''
 +
*'''Energy Absorption'''
 +
With his mastery over energy, Captain Collider can fire concentrated beams of particle energy from his eyes, allowing him to perform delicate procedures at low intensities and melt through or explode objects at higher intensities. He can also absorb and resist most forms of energy based attacks, allowing him to improve or boost his own energy levels. The most devastating use of this power branch, however, is the ability to replicate and weaponise most forms of energy.
  
[[File:Nightfightsparrow.jpg|640px|center|thumb|<font color=#00000>Jailbreak: Millennium's Most Wanted. Time to kick evil in the nether regions.</font>]]
+
===Graviton Manipulation===
 +
*'''Gravitation Adaptation'''
 +
*'''Immobility'''
 +
Another potentially catastrophic power, Captain Collider typically utilises his limited graviton manipulation to bend graviton particles around him for easy adapatation to extreme gravitational pressures or to increase his immobility during combat for defensive purposes.
  
</div>
+
===Ionic Manipulation===
</div>
+
*'''Electromagnetism Manipulation'''
 +
**'''Electromagnetic Vision'''
 +
With ionic manipulation, Captain Collider is capable of exercising control over ions, which in turn gives him control over electromagnetic forces. Though he lacks a finer control over this branch of his particle manipulation, he is able to manipulate electromagnetic waves in a way which allows him to use the entire electromagnetic spectrum to enhance or otherwise influence his vision.
  
<br>
+
===Matter Manipulation===
 +
*'''Density Manipulation'''
 +
**'''Super Strength'''
 +
**'''Invulnerability'''
 +
**'''Super Breath'''
 +
**'''Enhanced Lung Capacity'''
 +
*'''Self-Sustenance'''
 +
A very intricate branch of his particle manipulation, Captain Collider generally admires the vast potential of matter manipulation. With it, he can alter his density to vastly increase his strength, durability and lung capacity. He can also survive without the need to eat, drink or sleep, which definitely helps with his workload.
  
='''''<div style="color:#4682B4; background-color: #4682B4">Equipment[[File:Equipmentt.png|left]][[ File:Sparfalcon.png|45px|right]]<br><br></div>'''''=
+
===Molecular Manipulation===
 +
*'''Molecular Reconstruction'''
 +
Though Captain Collider only has one documented sub-power permitted by his power of molecular manipulation: the ability to reconstruct certain molecules to alter their physical structure and qualities is definitely not to be taken lightly. This power is severely limited, however, as he cannot (or, perhaps, will not) alter biological organisms and must instead settle for altering non-biological objects not too complex to manipulate.
  
<div style="padding:6px; border: 6px Solid #4682B4; color:#FFFFFF; border-radius: 20px; border-radius:5px; background-color: #000000">
+
===Radiation Manipulation===
<div style="padding:6px; border: 4px Solid #FFFFFF; color:#FFFFFF; border-radius: 20px; border-radius:5px; background-color: #000000">
+
*'''Radiation Projection'''
 +
*'''Radiation Fists'''
 +
*'''Radiation Generation'''
 +
*'''Radiation Absorption'''
 +
*'''Radioactive Vision'''
 +
Generally too dangerous to use in a non-lethal capacity, radiation manipulation is one of Captain Collider's less utilised branch of powers, if not the least utilised. It's hard to be a friendly neigbourhood superhero when you're throwing around dangerous blasts of radioactive energy, after all. Still, being able to replicate, generate, project, emit and absorb different kinds of radiation has its applications in the field and in the lab.
  
<br>
+
===Photon Manipulation===
 +
*'''Flight'''
 +
*'''Super Speed'''
 +
**'''Enhanced Reflexes'''
 +
By bending the photon particles surrounding his body, Captain Collider is able to fly or run at the speed of light. He does, however, prefer to move much slower as his reflexes, while enhanced, are nowhere near as fast as an average speedster's. He usually settles for supersonic speeds or lower when in an urban or otherwise busy environment, save for the occasional short burst of speed. While not the most offensive or defensive of his abilities, it can't be argued that photon manipulation has its utility purposes.
  
Sparrowhawk carries a number of hi tech devices in her war on crime. Some were culled from UNTIL's science division, a few were invented by her friend Simon Reynolds and some were even created by Alex herself. Alex has taken it upon herself however to learn how to create and repair these devices on her own should something happen to them. Much of Alex's own personal financial resources go into maintaining these items to assist in fighting crime. Her arsenal includes (but is not limited to):
+
===Positron and Electron Manipulation===
 +
*'''Telescopic Vision'''
 +
*'''Microscopic Vision'''
 +
Another infrequently used power branch, Captain Collider can manipulate positrons and electrons with a thought. He only seems to use it to enhance the range of his vision, however.
  
* '''Combat Suit'''. Sparrowhawk's light armored uniformed was originally designed by Simon Reynolds and has been subsequently upgraded over time by Alex Harper herself. Her most recent costume is a skin tight bodysuit composed of a base material she created dubbed 'Spidersilk'. This semi-stretchy, artificially created polymer thread essentially replicates real spider's silk tensility and properties and is five times as durable as Kevlar armor. The suit's sleekness and innate light weight allows her maximized mobility on the field and in combat. The suit is further fortified by a coating known as Trilovex, a liquid armor also devised by her. Unlike standard Kevlar armor, the Trilovex liquid armor coating provides significant protection against slashing weapons such as swords and knives. Trilovex also assists in the dispersal of force from impact, so it does a far better job preventing bruising, internal organs being hurt or bones breaking during attacks than standard Kevlar armor. It is fire resistant and provides some protection against electricity and electrical energy. It can slightly adjust to account for warmer or colder temperatures, though not in extremes. The last protective measure on the outfit is thin Kendrium Carbide plating across several areas of the bodysuit (such as the knees, shins, upper chest and shoulders) for added defense. The combat uniform can withstand a grenade at close contact or even standard armor piercing bullets. There is a slick coating on most of the uniform that makes being held or grappled in close quarters combat difficult. A system of nanotech has been installed that aids in repair of the uniform should it become damaged. The mask piece is outfitted with goggles that can filter light in a flashbang attack as well as provide the ability to view things telescopically, at night or in different spectrums. The goggles also connect to the Mother AI system (see '''Mother, Mark 2''', below) and can regulate others body systems and heartbeat, in essence functioning as a medical scanner or even lie detector when interrogating others. The uniform houses an electrical charge as well which can be deployed through voice activation that covers a ten foot area.
+
===Subatomic Particle Manipulation===
 +
*'''Decelerated Aging'''
 +
*'''Healing Factor'''
 +
*'''Enhanced Senses'''
 +
**'''Enhanced Hearing'''
 +
**'''Enhanced Smell'''
 +
**'''Enhanced Taste'''
 +
**'''Enhanced Balance'''
 +
His most complex branch of particle manipulation, Captain Collider still doesn't really seem to have any fine control over subatomic particles. Its only effects on his powers are strictly secondary and subconscious, greatly slowing his aging process, speeding up his body's healing abilities and enhancing some of his senses to superhuman levels.
  
* '''Gauntlets'''. Sparrowhawk's uniform has two gauntlets which aid her in a number of ways. The gauntlets themselves are partially composed of a Questionite alloy that Sparrowhawk has managed to procure, even with the limited resources available to most. In addition to being utilized potentially in a defensive manner, the gauntlets release photonic particles that create her energy batons (see Photonic Blue Energy Batons, below). The right gauntlet contains a near thread thin Kendrium cable line of 100 feet/ 7 stories that can be deployed as a grappling hook or wire. The left gauntlet houses a holographic scanner and relay (see Visual Holographic Camouflage, below). The Questionite alloy is also embedded into the knuckles of her gauntlets to allow for greater impact in attacks.

* '''Mother, Mark 2''', a computer unit which links to Sparrowhawk's costume (housed in a compartment on her upper left arm). Designed by Alex herself and set up by her friend Simon Reynolds, Mother is an Artificial Intelligence that serves as an ally of sorts. It assists her in hacking into mainframes, controlling items such as her tracking systems and gives her access to a GPS system. Sparrowhawk can remotely utilize and run the Barlowe Building through her uniform should the need present itself. Her lenses are also hooked up with Mother, giving her access to UNTIL and PRIMUS databases as well as recording data and the ability to run on the spot analyses. It can connect to numerous orbiting satellites and controls her Red Kestrel grav bike remotely.
+
When Captain Collider's power of particle manipulation first began to manifest itself, it did so in dangerously erratic and unwieldy ways. Realising the dangers of having such little control over such devastating power and theorising that, '''if he ever completely lost control over the Power Particles flowing through him, he could wind up combusting into a large black hole,''' Captain Collider constructed the '''Collider Stabilisation Suit.''' Made out of a patented energy and radiation channeling nanoweave material called '''Invinciweave,''' the Collider Stabilisation Suit is capable of both '''containing Captain Collider's fluctuating power levels and offering resistance to all manner of radiation and other destructive elements, making its exceedingly difficult to penetrate or tear while remaining flexible and skintight enough to be worn comfortably.''' 
  
* '''Psionic Scrambler'''. This tiny, microchip sized device is embedded in the helmet section of Sparrowhawk's combat uniform. A modified version of UNTIL's Advanced U-CFA Brainscrambler Psionic Disruption Pistol, Sparrowhawk has redesigned and incorporated it into her uniform. It is used offensively, activated via a small control by her temple. When set off, it releases a short blast of psionic feedback in a twenty foot radius, and while effective against most it is extremely potent against those with mental super powers. It effectively disrupts the neural pathways of the assailant, resulting in intense pain, loss of consciousness and even temporary memory loss; either way, an agonizing and splitting headache.
+
In addition to the Invinciweave bodysuit, the stabilisation suit is also outfitted with a '''number of focusing devices''' which allow the hero to better control and concentrate his particle manipulation. Crafted out of a '''kendrium alloy designed to make them both durable and adept at funneling otherwise unstable energies,''' the stabilisation suit's ''' bracers and boots can better channel and control Captain Collider's powers while also acting as power limiters.''' '''The belt -- crafted from the same material -- acts as the essential element in monitoring the Power Particles in Captain Collider's molecular structure, keeping him structurally sound and giving him fine control over all aspects of his particle manipulation.''' Finally, the '''headpiece acts as an amplifier and modulator for the neurological link between Captain Collider's powers and his mind, better allowing him to 'will' himself to use his powers in more refined ways.'''
  
* '''Force Field Generator'''. Actually a modified and miniaturized Gadroon force field generator, it is controlled by the Mother unit on her left gauntlet via verbal command. This can create a sphere of solid force around Sparrowhawk for approximately 15 seconds before its energy is depleted. It then enters a recharge period of several minutes before it can be reactivated. While only good in short bursts, it is nonetheless invaluable in certain situations.  
+
Primary functions aside, the suit is also '''outfitted with life support systems''' which allow Captain Collider to '''operate in the vacuum of space, underwater and in other dangerous conditions unabated,''' is interlaced with adaptive nanofibres which allow him to '''change its colours''' at the push of a button and has an '''in-built computer''' which lets him '''log data and perform a wide variety of minor tasks while out and about,''' including '''communicating with QUARK,''' the friendly robot designed by Captain Collider himself.  
  
* '''Visual Holographic Camouflage'''. This device, worn on Sparrowhawk's left gauntlet, can take imagery of others and imprint an exact duplicate holographic overlay on top of Sparrowhawk. Sparrowhawk is then able to essentially appear as another person visually (even over things such as security cameras), though it cannot replicate voices. Quick movements will often create a subtle blur like effect over the hologram which allows others to realize it is fake, so it is not suitable in combat.
+
When Captain Collider first opted to become a costumed superhero, the prototype stabilisation suit was revised and redesigned by Unlimited Dynamics' PR and marketing departments to make it more 'heroic' and 'friendly'. After adding a less drab colour scheme, a bright cape and an atom as a chest emblem, the suit changed from an impersonal containment suit to the costume Collider wears into battle every day and -- '''though it has been tweaked or upgraded one or twice along the way''' -- it has remained a constant reminder of the hero's roots and the importance of being responsible with the power he has.
  
* '''Black Valkyrie Dual Pistols'''. These are a pair of specially designed compact semi automatic guns often housed in quick release pouches on her belt. They are outfitted with a laser sight grip and silencer. The pistols use a variety of ammunition depending on the situation. Though quite small (only the size of a Boberg XR9-S Semi Automatic Pistol, with a 3.35" barrel) they pack quite the punch. They utilize 9x19mm ammunition that can pierce through body armor. She also keeps on her explosive rounds, silver bullets, and even some 'Exorcist' (warded) ammunition supplied by UNTIL agent [[Skarius Snowtalon|<span style="color:#7171A9">Skarius Snowtalon</span>]] that are proven effective against spirits and ghosts ... just because you never know when you'll need it.
+
When not operating as a superhero, Captain Collider usually uses his '''molecular reconstruction to transmute the suit into his regular clothes.''' This process happens within the blink of an eye and, to most anyone watching, it would '''appear as if a giant atom is engulfing the glowing form of Mal Parton and, in a burst of light, transforming him into Captain Collider.'''  
 +
----
  
* '''Analysis Kit'''. Contains everything a detective on the go requires. Blood sampling and DNA collection, fingerprint analysis, etc.  
+
==QUARK==
 +
<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"I made QUARK to be my assistant, but I'm glad to say he became much more than that. I don't want to think about where I'd be without him." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
 +
While attempting to prove the existence of the Power Particle and harness its potential, Mal Parton decided to decrease his workload and expedite the process by inventing a multipurpose robotic assistant. '''Resembling a particle in design, the diminutive robot, QUARK,''' was made to maximise its mobility in the lab and in the field, forgoing traditional bipedal movement in favour of levitation and flight through the use of '''gravitational electromagnetic propulsion, whgich is capable of matching Captain Collider's cruising flight/run speed and his usual maximum speed when pushed.''' Built with a '''learning artificial intelligence, QUARK possesses the intuitive mind and personality of a human with the processing potential of an advanced robot.''' In order to make his robotic assistant more friendly and endearing, Mal also gave QUARK a ''''voicebox' which allows him to simulate human speech patterns to create his own voice and identity.''' He also gave QUARK the ability to '''express its simulated emotional states through the use of emoticons, which are projected on the screen it uses for a 'face'.''' In place of hands, QUARK utilises '''concentrated tractor beam projectors mounted on either side of its spherical body,''' allowing it to manipulate several objects at once through the use of multiple beams. For durability, his '''outer plating is constructed out of a titanium alloy, making him resistant to harm, but not to a significant degree.'''
  
* '''Miniature rebreather'''. A small, palm sized rebreather that enables her to act in areas affected by gas attacks or in water for a limited time.  
+
Apart from its various outer features, QUARK also possesses a number of secondary features implanted to better serve Mal during his day to day work. As well as using its 'face' to communicate, QUARK can '''present information on it like a computer or a television and can even act as a two way video communication device.''' Its tractor beam projectors can be used to '''project force fields and fire defensive stun blasts,''' equivalent in strength to your average taser but also '''capable of being adjusted for added power or to charge something with electricity.''' Additionally, a number of '''useful tools are stored within QUARK's body''' to be used by the robot itself or anyone who so chooses to take advantage of its services. QUARK is also '''capable of tapping into various radio frequencies and remotely interfacing with technological devices of various shapes and sizes, manipulating tehm or accessing their information.''' A '''universal translator''' allows him to '''interpret any known language of human or alien origin and seamlessly translate it with a very small margin of error.''' An '''omni-scanner''' built into its top half can be used to '''scan any number of substances, organisms or energy forms to identify or further analyse them using the robot's wide database of information''' and has, in more recent times, been outfitted with '''enhanced vision settings''' to match Captain Collider's. For added analysis or storage purposes, a '''retractable draw''' can also be used. For additional storage of foreign objects, QUARK has a limited amount of space set aside as a '''storage compartment in its back.''' This compartment is usually '''used to store any of Captain Collider's mission specific equipment or a spare stabilisation suit.''' Running on '''a long-lasting, rechargeable power source, QUARK gains power from solar and electrical energy,''' which can easily be provided by sunlight or Captain Collider.
  
* '''Electronic Lock pick'''. The size of a mere USB memory stick.

Since donning his cape and becoming a hero, Captain Collider has found QUARK to be an '''invaluable ally''' and has a habit of using him as a ''''sidekick',''' albeit in a '''support capacity.''' Though the robot isn't much use in a fight, he has used what few offensive measures he has to save Captain Collider's life on more than one occasion. With its somewhat '''timid and unadventurous personality,''' however, QUARK isn't too fond of having to risk his 'life' doing so and is always ready to voice his apprehension towards Captain Collider's dangerous lifestyle.

==The Power Collider==

<div style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color: #DAA520"><div style="font-size:15px; font-family: Helvetica">''"The Power Collider. Both my greatest creation and my most devastating failure. Only time will tell if it will spell disaster or salvation for the world but, no matter what happens, it will always be my greatest responsibility." - Captain Collider''</div></div>
 +
'''Created for the purpose of discovering the Power Particle through the collision of other accelerated particles,''' the Power Collider was expected to c'''hange the very foundations of human existence for the better by allowing for superpowers to be reliably bestowed upon any given subject with an almost imperceptible margin of error.''' After Mal Parton activated the Power Collider for the first time, however, a '''spontaneous act of self-sacrifice combined with an unknown variable to cause an unexpected turn of events.''' Though the variable allowed the Power Collider to work on that particular occasion, '''Mal was bombarded by its accelerated particle beams.''' Torn apart and reconstructed on a subatomic level, he became '''infused with stable Power Particles and gained extraordinary powers over particles both internal and external.''' With these powers he became '''Captain Collider, the Man of the Millennium and a shining example of mankind's bright future and unlimited potential.'''
  
* '''Kendrium cable ties'''. Sparrowhawk keeps a few of these with her for anyone that needs to be secured. Work like police zip tie cuffs.
+
Though he '''tried to replicate the extraneous, unforeseen variable''' that led to the successful creation of Power Particles many times following his accident, '''Mal has yet to succeed in doing so and limits himself out of a fear that his experiments may do more harm than good.''' Nevertheless, the Power Collider remains situated in the very centre of Captain Collider's headquarters, the '''Tower of Power''', and plays a '''vital role both in the present and, as Captain Collider is beginning to discover, in the future.''' As more and more metahumans imbued with stable and unstable Power Particles continue to surface and denizens from other worlds, realities and timelines make appearances in our own, '''the question of whether the Power Collider and the discovery of the Power Particle ushers in mankind's ascension or damnation begins to weigh more heavily on Captain Collider's mind and the events unfolding around him.'''   
 +

 +
'''Nullymer Cape:''' Captain Collider's cape is made out of the experimental hyper-durable polymer known as Nullymer, created by Mal Parton himself. Through the use of a unique and subtle vibrational frequency constantly resonating through its atomic bonds, Nullymer is able to 'negate' most harmful substances and elements to a significant degree, making it ideal for protecting its wearer from all manner of harm. By using his Nullymer cape, Captain Collider can protect himself and others from danger, smother fires and other destructive forces, cloak himself from certain means of detection and, in a pinch, weaponise it against his enemies as an expanding net, though Captain Collider has always believed that particular function to be a bit ridiculous.
 +
----
 +
'''Consortium Power Suit:''' Procured from a member of the Collider Consortium during their invasion of Arcadia City, the Consortium Power Suit is a suit of future technology infused with Power Particles to the degree that the wearer is able to mimic the powers of Captain Collider himself to a lesser degree. Unable to operate for too long without losing its energy, the power suit can only be used for a maximum of twenty-four hours before it requires a 'rest period' to recharge itself. Realising the danger of the power suit, the implications it may have on his research into Power Particles and its negative impact on the future, Captain Collider regularly studies it in the hopes that he will one day be able to use it to prevent a future where the Collider Consortium exists.
 +
----
 +
'''The Parton Portal:''' An interdimensional portal generator created by Mal Parton for the purpose of branching out to other dimensions in search of perfected Power Particles, the Parton Portal was an unmitigated disaster as, on its very first run, it opened a gateway to a dimension of endless war and destruction known only as Point Z. From Point Z, the Antimatron arrived in our world and may have destroyed a large part of it if not for Captain Collider righting his wrongs. Though he vowed never to utilise the Parton Portal again, Captain Collider was forced to use it to trap a rampaging Captain Chernobyl where he could do no harm, sequestered in a universe already ravaged by ceaseless chaos. Although Captain Collider abhors his creation with every fibre of his being, he cannot bring himself to destroy it once and for all if only because of its utility in disposing of threats with power far exceeding his own.
  
* '''Medical kit'''. A very combat ready, yet compact, field kit for emergencies.

* '''Razor Disc'''. Razor sharp (hence their name) shuriken like discs that can be thrown at targets. They come in several varieties (see below) that must be clicked and released to activate as well as a regular style that has no added properties. They are rather compact (only about 3" in diameter) and carried in a specially designed pouch that keeps them from being involuntarily activated.  
+
'''Super-Genius Level Intellect:''' Endowed with an IQ of 300, Captain Collider possesses a super-genius level of intelligence and a brilliant scientific mind. With his level of intelligence, Collider has ready access to an eidetic memory, a high capacity for academic progression and the uncanny ability to think faster and on a higher level of reasoning than most people, which makes him well-suited to the mental toll of exercising his powers. Truly, his mind is the most valuable asset.
 +
----
 +
'''Brilliant Physicist:''' With multiple PhDs in particle physics, mechanical engineering, robotics, quantum mechanics and metahuman science, as well as bits of knowledge from other branches of physics picked up throughout his career, Captain Collider's highly-trained scientific mind is only the result of a natural affinity for scientific pursuits. His vast knowledge of physics is also regularly applied to his crimefighting and the use of his powers.
 +
----
 +
'''Expert Chemist and Biologist:''' Though not as adept in either of these subjects as he is in physics, Captain Collider's knowledge of chemistry and biology is nothing to be sniffed at and he's usually able to put it to good use. Of particular note is his moderate level of study in biochemistry, genetics and xenobiology.
 +
----
 +
'''Multilingualism:''' Having used a mixture of his super speed and his eidetic memory to greatly expedite the learning process, Captain Collider has become fluent in a vast number of Earth's many languages. It would be far easier to list the number he has yet to gain some understanding of than it would be to list all the ones he can speak. He knows no alien languages yet, though he has taught himself sign language and knows how to read lips.
  
* '''Explosive Razor Disc'''. Shuriken like devices that, upon contact with an opponent, will explode.

* '''Flashbang Razor Disc'''. Shuriken like devices that release a 180 decibel sonic blast and well as a flash that causes temporary blindness.
+
'''Personable, sincere and generally upbeat, Captain Collider is a genuinely nice person inside and out. A generous, gentle soul, he only wants happiness for as many people as possible and truly wants to see the good in everybody. In his mind, altruism is the human condition and the only reasonable way to ensure mankind's progression as a species. As such, he always goes out of his way to make sure everyone is treated fairly and with a modicum of human decency, even the ones who may not deserve it.'''
  
* '''EMP Razor Disc'''. Shuriken like device that, when making contact, explodes and releases an electromagnetic pulse that temporarily disrupts or completely destroys electronic devices.
+
Captain Collider is loyal and trusting to his friends, merciful to his foes and polite to anyone else. This all-loving personality is reflected in his pacifistic philosophy, which he references regularly and always strives to maintain. To Captain Collider, violence in any case where violence is not strictly needed is the result of a failure by people to act as civilised creatures and, therefore, an embarrassment to human intelligence. That isn't to say he completely avoids violence, however; levelheaded and reasonable, he understands the necessity of it and rarely ever impresses his own views of non-violence on others. The one exception to this is when he perceives others as being irresponsible or selfish with their power. Responsibility and duty are very important to Captain Collider, especially in the wake of receiving his powers. He believes it is his responsibility as a person to use his powers for good and frowns upon anyone who exploits them either for the sake of evil or their own personal gain. He also can be rather outspoken about his views when confronting those he believes to be responsible for unnecessary conflict and war, including some heroes. This approach to the use of superpowers specifically stems from his own fear of causing harm to others or losing track of his humanity. With responsibility close at heart, he exercises extreme caution to make sure he never crosses any boundaries -- perhaps to a noticeable fault.
  
* '''Cryo Grenade'''. This small, 2.5" sphere can be thrown, and when it makes contact essentially freezes whatever it strikes with a specialized cryogenic solution.  
+
'''A man of science, Captain Collider has a seemingly boundless curiosity when it comes to the subject and seems to approach any opportunity to expand his intellectual horizons with an adventuresome, overzealous spirit which contrasts starkly with his usual sobriety. Indeed, he has an almost unquenchable thirst for understanding how all things work, from the complexities of the universe to the mind of a supervillain. In addition, he usually confronts obstacles with the lateral mind of a scientist, preferring to take the thinking man's path to victory over any other. At times, Captain Collider can hardly stop himself at expressing awe or excitement at some of the many marvels he stumbles upon during his adventures and always seems to view things within the context of either bettering humanity or bettering scientific advancement -- though the two often go hand in hand in his mind. He holds knowledge and information in great esteem and believes that both are fundamental to any sapient species. When the stakes are high, however, Captain Collider will gladly pick mankind over science any day of the week, with only the slightest pang of remorse in some cases.'''
  
* '''Impact Smoke Bombs'''. These create a visual distraction as well as allow Sparrowhawk to take to the shadows.
+
Though it's easy to get lost in Captain Collider's larger than life presence and power, the hero readily indulges in his humanity, warts and all. Still your average nerd, he can be somewhat awkward and cautious in spite of his, quite frankly, intimidating physical form. He still conducts himself with the mannerisms of a man much more accustomed to burying his head in a book than saving lives. His speech and body language can sometimes be stiff and overly overly formal and he seems to take most people -- facetious or not -- at face value, often responding seriously to subtle jabs and sarcastic remarks. Despite his modest nature, Captain Collider is sometimes prone to parading his own intelligence around, rattling off information or coming in with a pithy quote. He usually apologises for even the slightest show of arrogance, however, his modesty exceeding his intellect. His pacifism, though admirable in some ways, can occasionally border on naivete, especially when dealing with more morally grey scenarios. Indeed, he is strongly devoted to his own personal beliefs and can become indignant when they're drastically infringed upon -- especially when his good nature or the science he loves so dearly is taken advantage of. When this happens, he tosses aside his usual docility and shows a much sterner, angrier side. Behind his usual sunny disposition, the burden of Captain Collider's powers and the constant challenges to his overly optimistic worldviews constantly weigh on his soul. If not for his own great patience and strong moral fibre, he would be much more prone to outbursts. He has a great amount of respect for tradition and laws, so long as he believes they perform the intended task of serving the people and -- as a staunchly left wing person -- he isn't afraid to speak his mind when he believes the world isn't working as it should be..
  
* '''Homing Devices'''. These homing devices, no larger than a dime, that can be planted and traced via the 'Mother' computer unit.
+
'''On a more personal note, Captain Collider loves people, regularly touring the world on his university lecture circuits and attending public events on behalf of Unlimited Dynamics. He has a fairly good sense of humour and rarely takes offense to the odd joke on his behalf -- though his own attempts at humour are often rather awkward and groan-inducing. Open-minded to the extreme, he's always willing to 'go with the flow' and try new things. He is a connoisseur of the arts, literature and the science of cooking, and is a published author in his own right, having written various non-fiction books on his research. His tastes in music are also surprisingly erratic, and he seems to bounce from classical to political rap to Japanese pop music with no real sense of consistency. Despite his friendliness, Captain Collider is still very much an introvert and likes to spend time alone to be with his thoughts or to just recuperate when the hustle and bustle gets to be overwhelming. In romance, he has a tendency to be traditional and the slightest bit shy, far from a womaniser or a playboy. If he develops romantic feelings for a woman, he rarely if ever makes the first move and usually tries to keep his affections to himself, having only been with one woman his entire life and not quite used to being 'attractive' yet.'''
  
* '''Photonic Blue Energy Batons'''. Upgrading from her former Bio Electric Batons, Sparrowhawk has added these to her primary arsenal. Activated by her uniform's gauntlets, they each create a twenty six inch long energy baton composed of condensed photonic energy. They are nigh unbreakable and adjustable in density and power. The ends of each baton are less stable and release a strong current of energy, allowing them to merely shock others to having the ability to cut, burn or melt through most earthly substances based on her particular grip. The batons can be crossed, creating a 'hard light' shield roughly five feet in diameter to protect those behind it. Its last ability is to be used as a ranged weapon, the photonic energy releasing in a straight line at its intended target. The energy unleashed is potent enough to even stun incredibly powerful meta humans at its highest level. This last ability is used sparingly as it drains the gauntlets' powers.
+
Captain Collider's Myers-Briggs personality type is ISFJ.
  
* '''Omni Gadgets'''. Sparrowhawk seems to unerringly have the right gadget at any time for almost '''any''' situation. Omni Gadgets is a loose term for this, and you never quite know what is lurking in one of her belt pouches or side leg pouch that may just be the tool she requires.

* '''Red Kestrel''' (gravity bike): After Sparrowhawk's original Night Bird was destroyed while fighting the demon known as Belphegor, she decided to create a better, stronger, more functional vehicle. The chassis and body are Kendrium plated for better durability than the Night Bird. Still utilizing a plasma accelerator as a weapon, it is also outfitted with other offensive capabilities. A gravity pulse which both immobilizes and incapacitates targets, a heavy plasma cannon, plasma bombs and laser turrets are now also on her gravity bike. It contains modified Gadroon force shields in addition to stealth capability that renders the vehicle and its rider unseen to both the naked eye and radar. An on board computer system and uplink to the Mother AI unit is on the vehicle as well as a bio electric defensive charge to those who are not given a command code. This vehicle, like the Night Bird, is also powered by photovoltaics, self sustaining solar energy. The Red Kestrel can also be remote controlled verbally by Sparrowhawk through the Mother AI unit in her costume. The Red Kestrel can reach a top speed of 750 miles per hour, right under the sound barrier, while a thin ionized plasma shield about the vehicle offers protection to the rider from wind and other forms of damage.

* '''Space Suit/ Stealth Suit/ Snow Suit'''. Sparrowhawk has alternate uniforms for various needs. She has a PROJECT STARGAZER modified spacesuit for anything off planet, a stealth suit for more covert needs and a snow uniform that provides camouflage as well as better insulation than her typical uniform. In addition, she also has variants of her typical combat uniform, a sleeveless version and one with goggles and a jacket for when she utilizes the Red Kestrel.
+
'''Olivier Martin:''' The president and CEO of Unlimited Dynamics, Olivier is Captain Collider's boss and his best friend. Born into money and having inherited his post from his father, he has a tendency to be somewhat spoiled and ignorant of other people but is an inherently good person beneath it all and a savvy businessman.

'''Vanessa Morello:''' Captain Collider's deceased wife and and a chemist of some renown. She died of a mysterious and rare disease while Mal Parton was pursuing the Power Particle as a means of curing her, though as time passes by, he begins to suspect that her mysterious and rare disease may not have been so mysterious after all...

'''Gerald and Regina Parton:''' Captain Collider's parents, the Partons are loving and nurturing towards their son and are fully aware of his new superhero lifestyle. Though they worry about him, they trust him to use his intelligence and morality to make the world a better place for his being in it. Mr. Parton acts as an intellectual and philosophical mentor to their son while Mrs. Parton offers more moralistic advice.

+
'''Melinda Parton:''' A successful executive for Unlimited Dynamics' competitor, Steel Industries, Captain Collider's sister is ambitious and ruthless in business but very much cares for her older brother, despite their conflicting ideologies. Captain Collider worries that she may end up getting involved in the company's more shady dealings.

'''Nicholas Parton:''' An artist, musician, writer or whatever else catches his fancy, Captain Collider's older brother may be the 'black sheep' of the family but he is also a kind and positive person who his younger brother looks up to and regularly seeks advice from, especially following his accident. With his creative mind Nicholas frequently comes up with solutions and ideas which may have evaded Captain Collider's more logical way of thinking.

'''QUARK:''' A diminutive robotic assistant invented by Captain Collider to help expedite some of his workload, QUARK mostly carries out more menial tasks during the scientist's research and occasionally monitors his altered physiology. He's also a rather good listener and has a tendency to help his creator with problems when no one else is around.

+
Sparrowhawk, like most heroes, has her own weaknesses.
+
 
+
* '''Memories'''. A side effect of Alex's incredible memory is that she constantly feels compelled to keep herself busy in order to not dwell on events in the past. Due to her hyperthymestic memory it is easy for her get caught up in experiences that may have happened years ago. In addition, many individuals with  hyperthymesia tend to collect things. Alex purposely lives a lifestyle free of physical elements of her past and works at maintaining focus on the present.
+
 
+
* '''Social Skills'''. While Alex has many allies, she has far fewer friends. Very dedicated to her work and duties, Alex maintains a business first attitude. While she can come across as extremely charming, friendly and kind during social engagements, much of this is trained behavior. In reality she has a difficult time relaying her own feelings and as such tends to keep others at arms length. Her issues with others extend to her work ethics fighting crime as well. Sparrowhawk has a reputation throughout the super heroic community for being rude and demanding. It is something that she has been working on changing, though all things take time. It requires some effort for her to feel comfortable with most heroes and she has more than once underestimated someones value in a team setting. Sparrowhawk also has extreme trust issues that take shape in her maintaining secrets even from her closest allies and friends that hampers her.
+
 
+
* '''Superiority Complex'''. Sparrowhawk often feels that she is more capable and better trained than the majority of her peers. She can come across with a very 'holier than thou' attitude to other costumed heroes. Often this takes the form of her talking down to them. While it is not as severe as it has been in the past, it still is noted in most super hero gossip circles that she is rather difficult to deal with.
+
 
+
* '''Adrenaline Junkie'''. While many heroes are motivated by revenge, justice or simply being a paragon of good, Sparrowhawk's prime motivation is to find challenges that she is required to overcome (even though she would never acknowledge this openly). She relishes being the best at anything she puts her mind to. Providing herself with opportunities to prove herself by engaging in dangerous situations is a way to do that.
+
 
+
* '''Overconfidence'''. Sparrowhawk does have a tendency to think she is able to do most anything by herself and her level of confidence goes nearly into arrogance territory. Her skills, while quite exceptional, sometimes lead her to being overconfident in her crime fighting efforts. She has gotten herself way over her head regarding trouble on more than one occasion believing that something would be far easier than what it actually was.

Though he attempted to be the hero Powerline, his lack of responsibility endangered lives. When confronted by Captain Collider, he lashed out in anger, sparking a fight which ended in his defeat. Now embittered towards Captain Collider, Powerline has decided to settle for being the villain that killed the hero. He has on multiple occasions taken on the role of a violent anti-hero, earning the ire of Captain Collider despite his intentions.<br /></font>

<font size=1px>The illegitimate son of the late Klaus Hirsch, the first Mirror, Emmerich Hirsch followed his father's various exploits throughout his life. When the Mirror was killed by All-Star, Hirsch was consumed with a desire for vengeance. Travelling to America, he made an attempt on All-Star's life, but was foiled and imprisoned. There, the Blacksmith offered to use Power Particles to give him an enhanced set of his father's power so long as he targeted Captain Collider too. Putting both in his sights, Hirsch became the second Mirror and forced the two completely opposite heroes to team up. Now, the Mirror II hopes to restore his father's name by taking down Captain Collider.<br /></font>

Gifted with potentially vast control over ice, water and heat, Frost became Lady Winter and sought to take back her jewels and wealth through less scrupulous means. Though she was thwarted by Captain Collider and divorced by her husband, Lady Winter has recently developed a dangerous mastery over her powers, a disillusionment with her own humanity and a more ambitious outlook.<br /></font>

Through a combination of luck and wit, Captain Collider was able to narrowly defeat the team. Since then, it has been reassembled by its members sans Blacksmith on numerous occasions. <br /></font>

When he grew bored, Malvo used his own 'Malvo Portal' to travel to Captain Collider's universe so he could kill and replace him. Though the hero defeated the villain, forcing him to stand trial for his crimes back in his own universe, Malvo has sworn to return to get his revenge and has yet to go back on that vow in their subsequent confrontations.<br /></font>

While unparalleled in his gun toting talents, his flippant personality on the field often was a source of eye rolling for her. Even though he encouraged a flirty relationship with her from their introduction, she resisted his charms. As time progressed however, she realized two things: they made an incredibly effective fighting duo, and more importantly, All-Star had a lot to offer as a person than just sheer combat skill. He had charm, wit, and a penchant for living life to the fullest, not to mention a huge heart. She joined Rising Force due to him and invited him when she began the Protectors. While at one time involved in a romantic relationship, they have parted on amicable terms, still acknowledging each other as friends and partners.

Though not exactly fair to the Canadian powerhouse, Sparrowhawk has been making an effort to work with her more on it.

<font size=1px>Brilliant and apathetic, Spencer Nguyen quickly grew bored with the tedium of his job as a chemical engineer and dissatisfied with his insulting pay grade. Deciding to introduce a change of pace to his life, Nguyen built his greatest creation yet -- the Alchemy Blasters. With his new weapons, Nguyen could project a plethora of dangerous chemicals and transmutate any substance at will. Further outfitting himself with a protective bio-suit and helmet, Nguyen embraced the pirate's life as Captain Chemo -- a freewheeling, ruthless super criminal who uses his intricate knowledge of chemistry to get rich or thrill himself trying. And if he can also take out Captain Collider in the process, he sees no reason not to.</font><br>

[[Dobergirl|<span style="color:#7171A9">Dobergirl</span>]]: A former member of the Young Sentinels, Sparrowhawk met Dobergirl while working as a liaison for the GLOBE peace keeping agency. She was quickly impressed by Dobergirl's tenacity and dedication to whatever fight is brought her way. Sparrowhawk admires the her boundless energy, optimism and especially her kindness to others. Their relationship has evolved into an actual friendship with Sparrowhawk playing a mentor role of sorts to Dobergirl. She is one of the few in the actual super heroic community Sparrowhawk is fiercely protective of and views her like a sister. Sparrowhawk invited the heroine into the Protectors because she saw the potential the canine heroine was capable of. Dobergirl has proven time after time that she is definitely an A-Lister.

After a gig which ended in his being booed off the stage, he sought revenge on an ungrateful fanbase through subliminal messages prompting listeners to commit violent crimes for the 'Mixmaster'. When Captain Collider began to investigate, Taylor hurriedly designed a weapon to defend against him: a handheld device called a 'Boombox' which was capable of generating and manipulating sound waves. With it, Taylor posed as the mysterious Mixmaster in an attempt to throw Captain Collider off his trail but was ultimately defeated. Now, he makes ends meet as the Mixmaster, eager to make himself famous in a new light.</font><br>

She knows what to do, how to do it and accomplishes goals as quickly and efficiently as possible. Though they do not share much of a personal relationship, Doll represents to Sparrowhawk a good, solid working ethic on the field. She has seen another side of Doll as well, one that yearns to understand humanity. Sparrowhawk was touched by this and made it her cause to help Doll in her desire to be more than just wires and programming. Sparrowhawk eventually found a way to upgrade Doll's AI which gave her emotions much closer to a 'real' human.

Using his father's old research with some of his own improvements and modifications, Specter invented the Colour Suit -- a suit made of solid light which enabled him to manipulate visible light, in a number of ways. With his new powers, Specter became the Living Colour and started on a one man crime spree through Arcadia City which was only cut short by Captain Collider. Nowadays, the Living Colour prefers to hire out his services, looking to make some rep and a buck any way he can -- though his immaturity often causes him to fall short of his goals.</font><br>

She also knew her father, Keioseth, and realized the teen had a lot of potential to offer a team. Taking Kara under the wing of the Protectors she hopes to bring Kara's full potential as a global guardian to the forefront. Having a father like Keioseth with his own connections with the Freelancers does not hurt, either. Sparrowhawk values Kara's ability and positive can-do attitude that pairs exceptionally well with fellow Protector and friend, Dobergirl.

<font size=1px>A mechanical engineer at Unlimited Dynamics, Kenneth Sculley constantly found himself being passed over for opportunities to study alien technology. Disgruntled, Sculley stole a high-access keycard and used it to pilfer a handful of alien tech to study at home. He soon stumbled upon a device which projected beams of cosmic energy capable of 'opening' or 'locking' any given target and creating portals. His mind flooding with possibilities, Sculley reverse engineered the device into a weapon called the 'Keygun' and became the Skeleton Key. As Skeleton Key, Sculley went on to steal anything that caught his eye and was even able to 'lock' Captain Collider in another dimension once. He is something of a coward.</font><br>

Sparrowhawk acknowledges that he has more than earned the right on the team, seeing him persevere against formidable odds when fighting. He listens to direction and follows orders like a dutiful soldier. It is her hope however that Katsuo begins to show another side to his personality in order to better connect with and mesh well with his team mates and experience some personal growth. She also thinks getting further experience in hand to hand combat training would bring him to the next level, something Katsuo often dismisses due to his already exemplary powers.

Motivated by paranoia and anger, he redesigned the Plasma Core in his chest to fire superheated energy capable of burning through almost anything and stormed his former place of work. Though Captain Collider put a kink in his plans, Calida still seeks his revenge  and makes a living as the fire-starting member of the Think Tank, Hotspot, between murder attempts. </font><br>

[[Razira|<span style="color:#7171A9">Razira</span>]]: Sparrowhawk had worked alongside Razira a few times before the inception of the Protectors of the World. In those times, the heroic wolf-woman more than proved herself on the field with a cool head and dogged determination. Sparrowhawk always kept Razira's name at the top of her list to join the Protectors, and was extremely happy when Project Firewolf acquiesced and she accepted the invitation. Since then, Sparrowhawk sees her as a moral center for the Protectors and a fierce combatant. Razira is most likely the closest person to Sparrowhawk in terms of friendship in the super heroic community, and as such she often goes to her first when issues arise, personally or professionally.

Believing themselves to be above common criminals, the Think Tank prefers to use their intellect and coordination to get ahead. Despite their dynamic, a treacherous Tyrant was recently ousted by the rest of the group, with Captain Chemo taking over leadership.

Though his revenge scheme was foiled by Captain Collider, Hellraiser's madness continues to drive him to new twisted acts of crime, using an almost limitless box of lethal toys to terrorise Arcadia City and its unsuspecting populace.<br /></font>

While Sparrowhawk does not look at him with the revere most do, she respects and acknowledges his values, honesty and commitment to fighting the good fight. Thundrax is representative to what most heroes should strive to be in her mind. His very presence allows many a citizen in Millennium the ability to sleep well at night. Thundrax left the Protectors due to finding himself at an impasse with how certain members conducted themselves on the field versus his own personal code of conduct, though Sparrowhawk still considers him a friend and ally.

<font size=1px>When a team of scientists believed they had cracked the secret to the Power Particle they opted to test their theory on a gorilla named Argo, bombarding the ape with accelerated particle rays to replicate the experiment that gave Captain Collider powers. Unbknownst to them, however, Argo had been running a high fever prior to the experiment and, upon being exposed to unstable 'faux' Power Particles, became horribly warped on a subatomic level. Constantly burning with fire and radiation, theatomic ape incinerated the scientists and stampeded through Arcadia City before being sedated by Captain Collider. He currently resides in suspended animation at the Tower of Power until the hero can find a cure for him.</font>

<font size=1px>When xenobiologist Calvin Crawley discovered a new breed of insect deep beneath the Earth, he believed that his career would skyrocket overnight. Unfortunately for him, however, his jealous partner sealed him in an experimental mutation chamber. As he was holding the specimen at the time, its DNA merged with his own, transforming him into a grotesque insect-human hybrid. Warped by his new animal instincts, Crawley began to stalk Arcadia City at night, preying on pedestrians and reaching urban legend status as 'Doctor Creepy'. Though Captain Collider ended his feeding frenzy and incriminated his partner, Crawley's motivations and physiology continue to grow progressively less human.</font>

* '''The Apotheosis Project'''. The Apotheosis Project is a group of politicians, scientists, soldiers and other people in places of power throughout the world with one common goal: the removal and extermination of super powered individuals in order to elevate and secure the standing of humanity. While no one is sure of its true origins, it is estimated that it was founded shortly after those with super powers started to become commonplace upon the planet. A network was devised to ensure that its members took high status positions in various fields. In early 1988, several members were tasked with genetically altering their offspring, in essence giving birth to children who were considered standard humans while possessing traits at the paramount of human achievement, both physically and mentally. One of them was high ranking UNTIL agent Alan Harper, also the father of Alex Harper, Sparrowhawk. In early 2014 the Apotheosis Project attempted to start a direct war against super humans by devising a 'gene bomb' that would essentially kill only those with aberrant DNA. They also enlisted, willingly or not, the children who were gifted with advanced genetic abilities to assist in their plan. With the work of Sparrowhawk alongside the Protectors of the World, their plans were foiled and they were exposed to the public. While most were brought to justice, several groups still work covertly, hoping to one day bring their long term goals to fruition. Most recently it was discovered that a group of them were responsible for both an attempt upon the life of lycanthropic heroine Razira using UNTIL credentials and the cloning of Thundrax.

While Alex was raised without the knowledge of her father's involvement in such affairs, Jason was given full disclosure at a young age. His father, with assistance from the contacts provided by Alan Harper via UNTIL, sent Jason abroad and spent much of his life going about the world training in various skills. By the end of his teenage years Jason was a master combatant and an expert in dozens of skills. Jason was also a polymath like Alex, his training over numerous fields of study from history to assassination to herbalism. At the age of 21 he was brought before the heads of the Apotheosis Project. They deemed Jason their first choice to eventually ascend to the head of the organization once their fathers had relinquished their roles and passed on. In the meanwhile, his abilities were further enhanced through continued positive genetic engineering... making him even stronger, quicker and tougher, driving his abilities to the fullest that a human could aspire to. Cassowary's role during the so-called 'Eugenics War' ensured he acted as the group's primarily field leader and assassin. With the fall of the Apotheosis Project by way of Sparrowhawk and the members of the Protectors of the World, Cassowary has taken what little of the members remain to refocus and regroup. He also has a score he wishes to settle with his 'sister', Alex Harper, for her inability to follow the family legacy. While Sparrowhawk's overall combat training is superior, Cassowary's physical abilities surpass hers. It is one day that he hopes to see who would survive a final encounter.

Erik Morrison was a weapons designer and inventor for VIPER who had his sights set on far more lucrative goals than carving out a non identity as a mere cog in the machine that was the Venomous Imperial Party of the Eternal Reptile. Designing a sophisticated suit for himself, dubbed the M.E.K.K.A. (Mechanical Energized Kendrium Killing Armor) armor, Erik set out to establish himself. He wished to be active as both a villain for hire as well as continuing to create and supply his inventions to the highest bidder. During this time M.E.K.K.A. established a base of operations on the mysterious and ominous 'Monster Island'. He began to surround himself with robots and underlings of his own creation, gradually replacing the need for any human assistance in his forces. When an artifact of great but mysterious power came to Millennium City, Sparrowhawk was requested by GLOBE to guard it. This brought her into her first confrontation with M.E.K.K.A., and it began an ongoing war between the two. She seemed to thwart him at every avenue, which only further increased his resolve to kill her. Threatening Millennium City with a 'death ray', it was Sparrowhawk who finally took him down and delivered him to justice. M.E.K.K.A. currently plots from within Stronghold penitentiary, his drones and robots still active throughout various parts of Millennium City and still assuring his small empire is kept active, waiting his return.

A mutant, she was born with hyper enhanced reflexes, slight super speed and the ability to focus kinetic based energy through items. Yet Carolyn was also born without remorse or a conscience. Yearning to find purpose and an outlet for her more sadistic side, Carolyn decided to take up crime. It would have been easy to have a simple life of luxury... though to her, incredibly boring. Intense training in combination with her powers of mimicry led to her becoming an infamous European assassin for hire. She even formed her own team of female martial artists, known as the Red Blade, who terrorized Spain, France and Italy. Strafe herself was a master martial artist, marksman and wielded a magical rapier that could cut through any known metal. Looking to expand her criminal network into America, Strafe hosted an underground fighting championship. Sparrowhawk went undercover, entering as the Silver Savate to expose Strafe and her organization. Afterwards Strafe carried an almost obsessive desire to take down Sparrowhawk, but was thwarted at every move. Strafe and her coalition of female mercenaries were finally stopped when Sparrowhawk rescued the a collection of missing and presumed deceased masked crime fighters from Strafe's clutches in an underground lair who were being forced to fight each other in underground 'fight clubs'.

A demon of some sort, GLOBE was dispatched to a murdered coven of witches that apparently brought him to this plane of existence. Sparrowhawk soon faced off against the entity with the assistance of the magician known as Darkster. When he was slain during this encounter, Sparrowhawk took it as a personal vendetta to put an end to Valak no matter what the cost. Valak has shown control over darkness, elemental forces and magic. The demon has the ability to summon and control fire demons who unquestioningly follow his command and are capable of creating their own chaos. Valak's physical form was defeated by Sparrowhawk and several other heroes near Andrith ruins, his physical form consumed by volcanic lava in the battle. Valak has recently been sighted again, this time in Turkey as he had a hand in obliterating an entire city. It is with no doubt that he will once again find his power tested by Sparrowhawk, this time with the heroes of the Protectors of the World.

Head of one of the largest human trafficking operations in eastern Europe, Venus In Furs also elects to kidnap and extort from many prominent families as a means of income. Astrid was born with mutant abilities that she learned to control and use to her own interests at a young age. These powers are the ability to enthrall others to her will by means of mass mental suggestion and pheromone control as well as minor illusion casting ability that can trick all five main senses in a human. While Astrid appears to be in her early twenties, she is actually in her early sixties. Her powers over illusion are often utilized for sheer vanity, such as maintaining a youthful appearance to others around her. It is also effective in combat however, which she will do when threatened. Astrid also surrounds herself with a number of hired muscle that she keeps enthralled under her will, a few of them possessing super powers of their own. Venus was originally owner in a German dance club called Die Peitsche ('The Whip') that catered to a very specific clientele of young, rich and bored twenty somethings. Sparrowhawk on one mission traveled to Germany, infiltrating her operations involving the human trafficking. She was successful at shutting both that down as well as the club itself. Venus, however, managed to escape by use of her powers. Seeking a fresh start and a way to begin anew, Venus In Furs had decided to move across the ocean to the United States, where she has once again resumed her criminal activities. A team of heroes coordinated by Sparrowhawk dismantled her operations that were stationed in Millennium City, where Venus was abducting club goers as a means of human trafficking. Though her operations were ruined, Venus escaped and remains at large.

* '''Phronesis''' aka Dr. Arthur Pearce. Dr. Arthur Pearce was a foremost expert in the study of the human brain and specifically genetic mutations that affected the brain. His studies took a turn for the worst when he crossed the line by actually testing human mutants like guinea pigs to determine the cause of specific mutations. His operation was foiled by Sparrowhawk and he was sentenced to jail. In prison he crossed paths with the villain M.E.K.K.A., and the two of them staged a successful escape. Once freed, Arthur worked with the technological mastermind in creating a suit of armor that specifically enabled Arthur to use untapped portions of his brain, effectively giving him telekinetic and minor telepathic powers but at the cost of whatever sanity he had left. Phronesis staged a number of high profile attacks upon Millennium City for weeks, but Sparrowhawk managed to track him down in a safe house within the city's extensive sewer system. She was victorious, defeating both him and the gang he had surrounded himself with, known as the Brain Trust. Phronesis is currently incarcerated in Stronghold penitentiary. In there it was discovered that M.E.K.K.A. had done far too good of a job ensuring Phronesis' powers would remain with him. The removal of certain parts of his armor, it was determined, would result in his death as they were wired directly into his brain. A victim of his own obsessions, he is forced to essentially be a prisoner in his own armor.

* '''Kengou''' (real name unknown). Kengou (Japanese for 'sword master') is a cybernetically enhanced martial artist and swordsman who specializes in fighting with two Questionite infused katana. Kengou appeared fighting for the yakuza around eight years ago, but before that there is no firm records of him nor is the background behind how exactly he received his cybernetic upgrades known. What is known is that he is vicious and sadistic, and he appears mostly to be motivated by being the best at his craft. His physical prowess has been enhanced with implants that improve his dexterity, coordination, reaction time and strength. His talent with the blade is so precise he can actually cleave an oncoming bullet in half with his swords. While conducting 'business' in Millennium City for his yakuza bosses, Kengou found that his blades were to be tested against the heroine Sparrowhawk. The battle continued to a standstill and was only forced to conclude due to the intervention of her partner All-Star, as he arrived on the scene to turn the tide of the fight. Intrigued by the woman and wanting to ensure that his skill was not in doubt, he received the blessing of the yakuza to remain. Granted a cadre of ninja assassins to assist him, he decided to stay in the United States to seek Sparrowhawk out for a rematch. He prides himself on being the very best, a trait also shared by Sparrowhawk, the difference being he will stop at nothing to eliminate anything he sees as competition.

*'''Permafrost''' aka Martin Hawke. Martin Hawke was just one of the multitude of nameless thugs that made Millennium City their home. At one time he was hired muscle for Kevin Poe serving as a bodyguard. A few years ago he was tasked with eliminating Dr. Joseph Stang, a shady weapons designer who supplied equipment for numeous underworld rivals. Dr. Stang was working on a cryokinetic weapon when Martin broke in to attack him. In the ensuing fight, the weapon proved unstable and exploded. While Dr. Stang was killed from it, Martin Hawke found his body transformed. The power in the weapon actually infused within him, giving him the ability to create and produce ice and cold. Martin decided that fate allowed him to live and thus decided to use his powers, not for Kevin Poe's gang, but for his own selfish means. He became known as the assassin Permafrost. He sold his powers to the highest bidder for whatever was needed. Sparrowhawk crossed paths with him when he was working under the employ of one of his many silent benefactors. Permafrost was attempting to murder an envoy of foreign dignitaries at a summit held in Millennium City. She was successful in this pursuit, though it earned her Permafrost's hatred. This has led to him tackling high profile targets he believes might bring him into contact with her. Permafrost can create ice weapons (both melee and projectile), his touch can chill and immobilize and he has superhuman strength and durability. He also wears a specialized suit of Viperium Flex Armor that helps regulate and boost his powers.

*'''Twisted Sisters''' are actually one person, Veronica Darger. Veronica has the mutant ability to create multiple clones of herself, each one able to read the others thoughts anywhere, anytime. This power has made her a unique assassin as well as allowing her to become a one woman criminal organization. It is believed that Veronica is actually able to release as many as one hundred duplicates of herself. She is a trained marksman and martial artist, and while she possesses formidable skills often depends on mass numbers acting in perfect unison to ensure her success. She maintains large armories across the world in several large cities which equip her clones with a variety of hi tech weapons and armor. Veronica's bodies are able to freely travel, completing assignments in smaller numbers while her main body is typically secured in a safe location. Sparrowhawk first tangled with the Twisted Sisters in Belize, where she stopped a drug ring which was coordinated by them. It was at that time she discovered the vast network run by this one woman and her multitude of bodies. Since then, Sparrowhawk has been diligently working about the globe in order to shut Twisted Sister and her organization of one down.

<font size=1px>When a meteor began hurtling towards Earth at an alarming rate, Captain Collider intercepted and slowed it before it could endanger any lives. When he finished his task, all that remained  was a large metallic ball which he left in the care of the facility monitoring the event. A few days later, however, the ball, fully charged by the facility's electricity, deployed into a towering man of metal. The giant then single-mindedly lumbered through the country, feeding on any energy it could find and gradually growing in size. It was only through Captain Collider's efforts that the creature that would eventually be named 'Killamangyro' was eventually defeated and placed in a special containment facility under the Pacific Ocean.</font>

When hired by Arcadia City's branch of the Triad to mastermind the theft of a priceless jade statue, however, his spotless record was marred by the interference of Captain Collider. Fixated on this new challenge, Goodgrave began planning heist after heist against his employer's wishes. It was only on his twelfth 'defeat' that he finally cracked. Killing his infuriated employer and modelling his new philosophy and identity after the perfect symbol of uncertainty, Goodgrave became the Egghead -- the world's finest criminal mind. He has since devoted his life to outwitting Captain Collider and proving himself as the greatest criminal who ever lived.</font>

<h3 style="font-family:Impact; color:#FFFFFF; background:#002f63; font-weight:normal; font-size:200%; text-align:center;">THE COLLIDER CONSORTIUM</h3>
 
+
'''Leader:''' Alpha Collider<br />
<br>
+
'''Members:''' Various<br />
 
+
'''Type:''' Organisation<br />
* Sparrowhawk is an established international heroine, especially popular in South America, parts of Asia and Europe. She spends most of her time solo fighting crime out of the country though she does have a residence in Millennium City.
+
'''Origin:''' Founded<br />
 
+
'''Motivation:''' Purpose/Ideals<br />
* Sparrowhawk's investments have earned her a 2.8 billion dollar fortune by her mid twenties. She is exceptionally shrewd with money, especially with things like the Protectors' operating costs. Her wealth isn't something she flaunts or alludes to in social circles, avoiding the media spotlight such things can bring.
+
<font size=1px>From a future where Captain Collider has retreated from the universe, the Collider Consortium originally started as an organisation modelled after the hero, mimicking his abilities iwth suits infused with Power Particles to uphold universal law. However, they soon began enforcing a dictatorship across the universe and using their power to oppress others 'for their own good'. Developing an obsession with their hero, all members of the Consortium took the surname 'Parton' and many even altered their appearances to resemble him. After travelling back in time to harness the Power Collider, all known members of the Collider Consortium were trapped in Point Z.<br /></font>
 
+
'''Threat Level:'''<br />
* Horribly overuses the words 'charming' and 'lovely'.
+

+
<div style="position:absolute; left:0px;bottom:0px; width:100%; background:#DAA520; text-align:right;">
* When she curses, it is often in foreign languages.
+
<span style="letter-spacing:.3em; padding-right:5px; text-transform:uppercase;">'''UNKNOWN'''</span>
 
+
* Although she has always wanted a pet, even now, its not something she could feasibly do given her lifestyle.
+
 
+
[[File:Chibisparrowvsmonster2.png|500px|right|thumb|<font color=#00000>Chibi Sparrowhawk fights one mean mother of a monster.</font>]]
+
 
+
* Has a penchant for older movies if she is ever in the mood, especially ones from the early to late 30s. Enjoys romantic comedies and Busby Berkeley musicals.
+
 
+
* Prefers jazz and blues music. Fan of singers such as Billie Holliday and Bessie Smith.
+
 
+
* Gives amazing shiatsu and Thai massage.
+
 
+
* Often has her nose in a book or tablet researching something.
+
 
+
* It took her two years to actually put together her living space so that it resembles a regular home. Before that, Sparrowhawk primarily lived out of boxes in a near empty penthouse, her lifestyle far too active to commit the time to decorate.
+
 
+
* Despite shirking from the celebrity and fame that some of her peers enjoy, Sparrowhawk was named #14 in Super-World Magazine's 'Top 100 Sexiest Crime Fighters for 2013'. The 2014 edition has placed her on the list again, this time #11. Skin tight black bodysuits tend to have a certain effect on men.
+
 
+
* The sheer amount of both trivial and practical knowledge she wields is stunning. Alex is usually the first pick in any game of Trivial Pursuit that the Protectors of the World play, even though no one really wants her due to her long diatribes over answers.
+
 
+
* Is a closet conspiracy theorist.
+
 
+
* When annoyed or bothered, often complains of migraines.
+
 
+
* Habitual eye roller.
+
 
+
* Sparrowhawk suffers from perfectionism as well as light obsessive compulsive disorder. She displays at times neurotic behavior though she attempts to control it. Small inconsequential things like food labels facing forward at times grate her nerves far beyond what they should.
+
 
+
* Due to her attempting to control some of the unsavory issues created by her hyperthymesia, Sparrowhawk does not hold onto items or collect them for sentimental reasons. Her room at the Barlowe is sparsely decorated and contains absolutely no mementos.
+
 
+
* Is an extremely talented stage magician and illusionist, taught by the retired 1970s hero '''The Crimson Conjuror'''.
+
 
+
* Alex is a huge racing fan, and enjoys it herself on a non competitive level. Alex admires '''Sergio Kohler, aka [[Racer Red]]''', for his abilities on the track, though not so much for some of his personal opinions.
+
 
+
* With the PR backing of Thundrax's Flux-Carson Enterprises, Sparrowhawk began '''The Justin Channing Foundation'''. This is to assist people legally, financially, and emotionally who have lost loved ones due to violent crime. Justin Channing was the son of Senator Oliver Channing from Texas and enhanced through genetic manipulation like Sparrowhawk was. Senator Channing was a head member of the Apotheosis Project and had a hand in inadvertently murdering Justin by submitting him to a neurological control device. Before he died, Justin Channing was able to help to expose his father and several other members of the organization.
+
 
+
* A good voice actress for Alex Harper would be '''Sharon Stone''' circa her Basic Instinct film.
+
 
+
* If Batman, Midnighter, Captain America, Black Widow and Mockingbird all contributed bits of their DNA for a baby it would most likely resemble Sparrowhawk.

[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AllergicToRoutine Allergic To Routine] - Constantly needing to stay busy, one thing Sparrowhawk ensures she lacks is boredom.
+
<font size=1px>Quantum physicist Erwin Anatole was thought to have died when his machine designed to enable dimensional travel seemingly removed him from existence. In reality, the the machine scattered his atoms across all dimensions, leaving him in a ghost-like state of both existence and non-existence. Driven mad with loneliness, Anatole became 'Doctor Paradox' and travelled through time, killing key individuals to undo his accident. When Captain Collider discovered and explained that his victims would be counted as both alive and dead by the timestream, which would assign their future achievements to others to fill its gaps, a devastated Anatole attempted to travel to the beginning of all existence to change the laws of physics and apparently ceased to exist on arrival.</font>

+
 
+
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CrazyPrepared Crazy Prepared] - Always believing that Plan A needs a Plan B and a Plan C because it never hurts, Sparrowhawk is crazy prepared for most anything. Her contingency plans usually have contingency plans at the ready... because you NEVER KNOW.

[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DefrostingIceQueen Defrosting Ice Queen] - Sparrowhawk is extremely tightly wound. She's also not the friendliest to peers. She's slowly, very slowly trying to work on it. Really.

[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/JerkassHasAPoint Jerkass Has A Point] - Sure, teams may not like to listen to what she has to say, but Sparrowhawk is usually right. Not to mention that she often finds others defer to her tactical input in missions.
+
 
+
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HotScientist Hot Scientist] - Sparrowhawk is well versed in the sciences. While not a foremost expert, she can give anyone who makes a yearly salary in these occupations a run for their money. It pays to study.

+
 
+
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SurroundedByIdiots Surrounded By idiots] - Sparrowhawk often finds herself easily annoyed by other super heroes, vigilantes and other interested parties who fight crime.

+
'''Earth-Shattering Kaboom:''' Captain Collider's greatness weakness is his lack of fine control over his powers. If the belt of his suit is damaged beyond repair and the strain on his powers is too great, it is a strong possibility that he could explode into super dense particles, creating a black hole in his wake. The fear of doing such a thing constantly weighs on him and prompts him to limit himself.
  
<div style="padding:6px; border: 6px Solid #4682B4; color:#FFFFFF; border-radius: 20px; border-radius:5px; background-color: #000000">
+
'''Right In The Joules:''' Captain Collider may have great power, but pushing it too far causes him to run the risk of losing his molecular stability, even while wearing his stabilisation suit. As such, pushing him to his very limits is a good way to take him down.
<div style="padding:6px; border: 4px Solid #FFFFFF; color:#FFFFFF; border-radius: 20px; border-radius:5px; background-color: #000000">
+
  
<br>
+
'''Pushing Your Quark:''' He also runs the risk of losing his molecular stability if he absorbs too much energy, though the upper limits of the amount he can absorb is unknown.
  
[[File:BayoSparrow2.png|300px|right]]
+
'''Abra Kadabr-ouch:''' As with many science-based heroes, Captain Collider has little resistance against magic based attacks and is far more vulnerable to them than any other means of attack.
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5st74nVAsI End Of Line - Daft Punk]
+
'''Made From Concentrate:''' Captain Collider's powers are extremely difficult to control with precision and the more complex abilities require concentration to be used with any proficiency.  
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQWuWfxMXA0 Phantom - Justice]
+
'''Nice Guys Finish Last:''' A genuinely nice person is rarely treated with kindness in turn, especially when facing not-so-nice people. Captain Collider cares about everyone, no matter whom and this leaves him vulnerable to those willing to exploit that considerate nature.
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfkid5mpgWI Phantom pt. 2 Boys Noize Remix - Justice]
+
'''Plight of the Pacifist:''' Captain Collider is a textbook pacifist. He doesn't believe that violence and aggression are suitable ways to approach any problem which can just as well be solved through diplomacy and a level-head. A smart opponent can take advantage of this 'weakness', so long as they remember that even his pacifistic views have their logical limit.
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4SmZkmLRjQ Stripped - Rammstein]
+
'''Head Strong:''' In order to effectively use his powers, Captain Collider needs to understand the particles he's working with and what he's doing with them. If you cut off his knowledge or screw around with his mind enough, you can cut off his powers. A good psionic is a big weakness.
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7fPiW5srtU Nightlife - IAMX]
+
'''Tachyon Trouble:''' Perhaps because he has no control over tachyons, concentrated tachyon bursts can temporarily disorient the Power Particles in Captain Collider's system, affecting his perception of time, his age, his control over his powers, his ability to use his powers at all and even his sight in some instances. The effects of tachyons on his system are generally unpredictable, however, and hitting him with too concentrated a blast can be just as dangerous to his attacker.
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwhpbnisszU Barrel of a Gun - Depeche Mode]
+
'''Cold As Ice:''' Though it takes a lot to accomplish it, Captain Collider's molecules react like any other when cooled to a sufficient degree. If an opponent is able to freeze him completely solid it would, at the very least, take him a very long time to thaw out on his own and, at the very most, completely neutralise him. A truly prepared enemy can even completely freeze an entire room or lower its temperature to absoule zero to prevent him from reconstructing anything in it.
  
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNu7_CAJ3uA  Royksopp & Robyn - Sayit]
+
'''Supermen Can't Multitask:''' Though Captain Collider's particle manipulation can be used to induce a great number of effects, it is nearly impossible for the hero to use too many at once, especially the more powerful ones. For instance he is far more vulnerable to physical damage when reconstructing molecules and so on. An opponent who times their attacks right can capitalise on his vulnerabilities tremendously.
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPYGCxco56I I Just Want To Have Something To Do - The Ramones]
+
'''As You Live And Breathe:''' Either through his own unwillingness to do so or an actual limitation of his powers, Captain Collider cannot reconstruct living organisms. While not a weakness in a traditional sense of the word, it's helpful to know which lines he won't cross.
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMBXcX9mmRc White Rabbit - Emiliana Torrini]
+
'''Test Your Metal:''' Captain Collider is incapable of seeing through lead or questionite with any of his vision-based powers.
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zce1QaicJTs Army of Me - Bjork]
+
'''Projecting Problems:''' While Captain Collider can project atomic energy, nuclear energy, fire and ice blasts and more, he is only able to channel and project one kind of energy at any given time. He is incapable of mixing and matching multiple energy types and, instead, must settle for 'switching out'.
  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FTBLQRbh2A This is TRance - Paul Oakenfold]
+
'''Can You Hear Me Now:''' With his enhanced sense of hearing, Captain Collider is particularly susceptible to sonic based attacks and has little resistance against them.

*When Captain Collider's costume was first designed it had a red and black colour scheme. After wearing it once he quickly informed the designers that it was too 'menacing' and asked for a more calming primary colour.
 +
*One downside to Captain Collider's newfound physical presence is the difficulty he now has finding clothes in his size. He doesn't care for loose-fitting jerseys because he's unfamiliar with most of the sports personalities they're branded after.
 +
*Oddly enough, Captain Collider was a boy scout for a short time in his youth but quickly left in favour of science camp.

Once a brilliant physicist with a view for changing the world for the better, Malcolm Parton's life was changed forever when a freak accident caused him to fall into a highly experimental particle collider mid-collision. Though he should have been killed, an unknown variable caused the hyper accelerated particles to destroy and reconstruct Malcolm's body, merging with his physiology at a subatomic level. The process radically altered Mal, granting him the power to manipulate the very particles that make up the universe itself. Imbued with power beyond his wildest imagination, Mal vowed to use it responsibly in keeping with his pacifistic beliefs and became Captain Collider, the immeasurable Man Of The Millennium!

A gentle and reserved soul at heart, Captain Collider considers himself a scientist and human being first and a superhero second, always prioritising thought and diplomacy over unnecessary violence and confrontation. Though his levelheadedness makes him a hero among heroes, his idealistic pacifism occasionally borders on naivete. Still, with the potential for absolute power constantly present within him, Captain Collider strives every day to ensure it doesn't corrupt him absolutely.



Biography

"I wasn't always as powerful as I am now. In a way, I'm glad that's the case. I don't think I'd fully appreciate the magnitude of what I can do now if I had my powers from day one." - Captain Collider

Born in San Francisco to renowned physicist Gerald Parton and medical doctor Regina Parton, Malcolm Franklin Parton was the middle of three children, his elder brother, Nicholas, and his yet to be born younger sister, Melinda. Born into well-educated, well-off family, Mal wanted for little and received all the love and support he needed from parents, siblings, friends and teachers growing up. From a very early age, the true value of companionship and community were instilled within him.

"I had a very normal life. Good family. Good home. Sure, it may not be the most interesting superhero origin, but I wouldn't have it any other way." - Captain Collider

Inheriting his father's natural genius, Mal showed a staggeringly high intellectual capacity very early in his childhood, especially with concern to the sciences. With his father's love of science and his mother's compassion for others, he would often spend his free time studying the world around him in the hopes that he could somehow use what little knowledge he possessed at the time to make the people in his life happier. Wherever there was a problem in his neighbouhood, a young Mal was never far behind with childlike inventions and a friendly disposition.

"My parents always used to tell me that if you had the potential to do something, you should always do good. It's a lesson not nearly enough people learn and even fewer remember, but it's one I live by." - Captain Collider

It wasn't long before Mal's timidity and general lack of malice quickly earned him the scorn of his first bully, however. The older boy, eager to punish what he perceived as arrogance in the young inventor, promptly singled him out and harassed him before eventually challenging him to a fight. Astonished by the boy's aggressive behaviour, Mal hurriedly reported what had happened to his parents. It was then that his father sat him down and told him the importance of both pacifism and knowing when to resort to violence.

"It was my father who first taught me the concept of pacifism, but he also taught me what it meant to stand up for what's yours -- to know when there's no choice but to get your hands dirty. Violence should never be the solution to your problems, but sometimes it has to be." - Captain Collider

With his father's lesson weighing heavy on his mind, Mal decided to stand up to his bully and accept his challenge. Meeting him the playground after-school, Mal first offered to talk their differences out in the hopes that he could become friends with the boy. When the bully refused to accept his attempts at diplomacy, he readied himself and fought him head on. Though he was horribly outmatched and had no real chance of winning the fight, Mal#s insistence on not backing down eventually persuaded a group of older boys to stand up to the bully, scaring him away. Battered and bruised, Mal walked away from his first fight having learnt an important lesson from the actions of the boys who had interfered to help him.

"There's always strength in numbers -- always. And so long as there are seven billion other men and women living on this planet, no one should ever have to fight alone." - Captain Collider

Far away from his brother who favored the arts over science and his sister who simply preferred to socialise with her friends, Mal grew to become more and more enamoured with science and, before long, found himself studying one of the better high schools in the city, an honour roll student with aspirations of becoming a physicist like his father. There he met the woman who would go on to be the love of his life, fellow honour roll student Vanessa Morello. Though he was initially too shy to talk to her directly, he eventually mustered up the courage to approach her and found that they shared more common interests than he would have thought.

"I was just a gangly, geeky kid back then. Vanessa loved me not in spite of that, but because of it." - Captain Collider

Becoming fast friends and, eventually, unlikely sweethearts, Mal and Vanessa both graduated from high school and attended Arcadia City University, with Mal studying to attain multiple PhDs in physics and Vanessa doing the same with chemistry. It was during their tenure at the university that a twenty-one year old Mal eventually proposed to Vanessa, hoping that they could start a life together once their studies came to an end. Overjoyed by Mal's proposal, Vanessa enthusiastically accepted. Once they graduated from Arcadia City University with their PhDs secured, Mal and Vanessa set a date for their wedding. The ceremony was a relatively small one attended mostly by a close circle of family and friends, but it would always be remembered as the happiest moment of Mal Parton's life.

"In all my years, with all my scientific breakthroughs, nothing I've done has ever felt more right than asking Vanessa to marry me and reciting my vows at that altar." - Captain Collider

While Vanessa got a job working at an up and coming industrial science company called Steel Industries, Mal secured a job working within the physics lab of Arcadia City University both as a particle physicist and a trainee lecturer. In this position, he quickly established himself as a brilliant physicist with a bright future, helping to make a number of breakthroughs in the field of particle physics and gradually making a name for himself via his own personal discoveries and theories. One such theory would go on to form the basis of his life's work and would set into course events that would drastically influence his future: the theory of the 'Power Particle'.

"The Power Particle represented all that mankind could achieve -- a future so bright it was blinding. Imagine being able to cure terminally ill patients by giving them regenerative healing factors. What if we could give construction workers super speed or super strength? What if a little girl who has been stuck in a wheelchair her entire life could stand up and fly? With the Power Particle, I believed I had unlocked the secret behind the controlled activation of superpowers -- a common link between all superpowered individuals, regardless of origin. Limitless possibilities for anyone and everyone. That was the Power Particle." - Captain Collider

Quickly becoming a popular name for his various theses and books on the Power Particle, it wasn't long before Mal received the support he needed to turn his theory into a reality. Approaching the bold, young physicist with an offer of his own lab stocked with resources, a team of diligent physicists at his disposal and all the money he needed to make sure he made the most of them, Olivier Martin, President and CEO of Unlimited Dynamics, enlisted Mal's brilliant mind in the search for his much vaunted Power Particle. Though Mal was originally reluctant to enter a partnership with the fast-talking, pampered businessman, he eventually saw that he truly wished to make the world a better place and agreed to work at his company, establishing a professional and personal friendship that would span throughout the following years.

"Ollie was everything I wasn't. Where I was shy and reserved, he was outgoing and loud. Where I had worked my way to excellence, he was born into it. By all accounts, we should have hated each other. But, beneath all the bravado, Ollie was a good man. I knew that about him almost immediately." - Captain Collider

Tragedy struck unexpectedly in Mal's personal life, however. After returning home from a day at Steel Industries completely exhausted, Vanessa suddenly collapsed and was rushed to the hospital by a panicked Mal. Once there, the couple were devastated to find out that she had somehow contracted an extremely rare disease for which there was no known cure. She was given roughly three years to live. Consumed by grief and unwilling to accept the fact that Vanessa might die, Mal single-mindedly devoted himself to unlocking the Power Particle in the hopes that he could harness its power to cure his ailing wife.

"It was all so sudden. So meaningless. An inexplicably rare illness incurable through current medical science and I couldn't do a damn thing to stop it from poisoning her. I wasn't about to let the only woman I ever loved die in some hospital bed. Not in my world." - Captain Collider

As the months went by, Mal's attempts at unlocking the Power Particle met wall after infuriating wall as Vanessa continued to grow ill. As Mal's pursuit of the perfect 'cure' to her condition became obsessive and self-destructive, Vanessa implored him to stop his research, accept her mortality and spend what little time he had left with her. Outraged by what he saw as her willing resignation to the inevitability of mortality and irritable from a great many sleepless nights, Mal lashed out at her in anger. Ashamed of his outburst, he retreated deeper into his work and refused to see Vanessa again for fear of losing his will to finish it.

"I didn't eat if I didn't have to. I didn't sleep if I didn't have to. Every waking hour was dedicated to finding the Power Particle to...saving my wife. If I couldn't save Vanessa -- the woman who meant everything in the world to me -- then who could I save?" - Captain Collider

Mal increased his work hours and devotion to the Power Particle over the next year, even inventing a robotic assistant named QUARK to help reduce his workload. Eventually though, as if through sheer determination, his efforts bore fruit with the creation of the world's first Power Collider -- a particle accelerator that he hoped would uncover the mystery behind the Power Particle through the collision of accelerated particle rays. On the precipice of finally proving the legitimacy behind his life's work and saving Vanessa from the claws of fate, Mal wasted no time in trying to put the grand machine to practice.

"I was so close. So close I could taste it. I could save Vanessa. I could save the entire world. And I was so close." - Captain Collider

With his life's work finally coming to a head, Mal worked up the nerve to visit Vanessa at the hospital again. Though he attempted to mend bridges with her and excite her with the possibility of a cure, Vanessa -- who had been wounded both by his previous outburst and his lack of emotional support over the last year of her life -- did not reciprocate his enthusiasm and, instead, revealed that the doctors had shortened her life expectancy to sometime within the coming weeks. Taken aback, Mal expressed an intention to redouble his efforts, but Vanessa stated that she'd prefer it if he would abandon his frenzied pursuit to save her and simply keep her company in her final days. Though Mal wanted nothing more than to make Vanessa happy, he refused to give up so close to a breakthrough and, wracked with guilt and self-loathing, left the woman he had devoted his life to sobbing in a hospital room alone.

"I was a fool. I thought that Vanessa had her friends, her parents, my parents -- but she didn't need them. She needed her husband at her side through the most difficult time of her life and I...I abandoned her. Because I was terrified of a future where she wasn't at my side. Because I was so busy looking towards that future that I could never truly live in the present..." - Captain Collider

Within a week, the preparations for the initial activation of the Power Collider had been made. An gallery of esteemed scientists, interested investors, Unlimited Dynamics board members and a few representatives of the media gathered to observe history in the making. With the weight of the world on his heavy shoulders, Mal started up the Power Collider and watched with bated breath as it began to pull humanity into a new age in a brilliant flash of light.

"It all happened so fast. Looking back on it, it's almost dreamlike the way my greatest hope for tomorrow became the biggest mistake of my career." - Captain Collider

Almost too suddenly to comprehend the situation, the Power Collider began to fluctuate wildly out of control, its collisions shaking the entire laboratory violently. As Mal hurried to find a solution to the problem, the audience and scientists were trapped in the lab by falling debris. Though he was initially unwilling to give up on his dreams, Mal quickly changed his mind on seeing the lives of others endangered and, in a bold act of heroism and redemption for his mistakes, he climbed to the upper level of the lab and attempted to hit the emergency shut down switch. As he slammed the button, however, the walkway he stood on gave way beneath him, sending him hurtling into the path of the Power Collider's accelerated particle beams just as it fired off one final time. As the beams collided with him on either side, Mal Parton ceased to be, exploding in a flash of blinding light and leaving only an echoing scream in his wake. As the machine shut down due to his efforts, every person in the room watched in horror as the man behind it was disintegrated before their very eyes.

"As I fell from the walkway and into the Power Collider, as the beams of accelerated particle energy reduced me to my fine atoms, as Olivier shouted my name in despair from somewhere far away and QUARK hurried to ascertain my fate, all I could think about was how I had failed Vanessa. How I had failed everyone. And then...a blinding light...and a voice, I think. And I became...something else." - Captain Collider

Roughly a month later, as Olivier Martin and QUARK oversaw the clean up of what was left of the late Mal's lab, the former lingered for a moment on the deactivated Power Collider and ran a sentimental hand across its surface. As he reached a certain point, however, a jolt of electricity arced out and zapped his hand as he recoiled in pain, the Power Collider reactivated itself seemingly of its own volition. Before anyone in the room could react, however, the machine collided two accelerated particle beams and, with an explosive shockwave of light and sound, a form assembled itself out of particles within the light. As the Power Collider once again deactivated itself, the hulking form stumbled from its origin point. Though he was far more muscular and nude than he had been the day he 'died', the form was, without a doubt, the late Mal Parton.

"It's difficult to describe the sensation of being reconstructed at a sub-atomic level. It was like every part of my being was sentient and I could see through them...hear through them. When they became one, it was like being reborn anew." - Captain Collider

Though Mal appeared to possess the same memories and basic physical features he had prior to falling into the Power Collider and being atomised, his body had been completely altered during the reconstruction process. Going from a lean, brown-eyed 5'11" man, he was 'reborn' a 6'4W man with extremely dense musculature and glowing blue eyes matching the hue of the Power Collider's particle beams, the sides of his hair unnaturally whitened. Dazed and confused by his recent 'reincarnation', Mal's first thoughts immediately went to Vanessa. Pulling on a lab coat and pushing past Olivier and QUARK, Mal ran out of the building and onto the streets so he could get to the hospital as quickly as possible.

"I needed to see her. I needed to know she was alright. Nothing else mattered to me in that moment." - Captain Collider

As he emerged onto the streets of Arcadia, however, Mal's senses were overwhelmed by things he shouldn't have been capable of perceiving. The sounds of voices whispering and shouting from miles away boomed in his ears like loudspeakers. His vision wavered between clearly fixating on objects too distant to usually observe and seeing through solid surfaces as if they were made of glass. His nose caught whiffs of the lunch time rush in Chinatown several blocks away and the salt water of the sea on the coast of the town. In complete agony, Mal attempted to run towards the hospital to get away from it all, only to break the sound barrier and crash headfirst through a store window; and as he pushed himself up and attempted to jump back through the opening he had made, he propelled himself into the air and came crashing back down in a heap, beams of energy firing from his eyes and into the ground wildly. Whatever had happened to Mal between his being disintegrated and being reconstituted had changed him.

"It was as I lay in a crater, huddled in a ball with a crowd of bewildered citizens taking pictures and talking around me that I truly woke up to my situation. When I first came to, my concern for Vanessa overrode all logic and reason but, in all the chaos that unfolded afterwards, I finally asked myself why I was still alive and what I had become." - Captain Collider

With his wits restored, Mal carefully made his way back to Unlimited Dynamics' HQ and requested that Olivier have scientists examine him. Further study of Mal's physiology quickly yielded rather shocking results. For all his altered looks and musculature, the most radical change to his body came at a more subatomic level: indeed, his blood, bone marrow and even saliva all radiated a unique type of energy which indicated that the very building blocks of his body themselves had been manipulated and warped to a significant degree. In his effort to create the Power Particle, Mal had seemingly become a living conduit of Power Particles. The unique subatomic particle had become bonded with his physiology on an intimate level, granting him vast powers which may have been the result of the subconscious manipulation of particles, influenced by the superiority of the Power Particle. In short, though Mal's life's work had born fruit, all known Power Particles were currently trapped within his body, unable to be used for the benefit of anyone else while simultaneously granting him tremendous power.

"It was some kind of ironic twist, almost. All that time spent searching for the Power Particle and I ended up trapping it inside of my own body, where it was no good to anyone. No good to Vanessa..." - Captain Collider

Still desperate to meet his wife, Mal refused to allow Olivier's scientists to detain him for further study and insisted that his friend informed him of the time lapsed between his 'death' and 'rebirth' and the status of Vanessa's condition. Though he seemed reluctant to tell his friend the truth when he seemed so unstable, Olivier eventually relented and revealed that Vanessa had died of her illness a few days after hearing the news of Mal's supposed death, seemingly losing the will to go on after the news. Crestfallen at the fact that he had been unable to save the one person he had set out to save above all others, Mal solemnly agreed to further study of his abilities on the sole condition that he'd be allowed to visit Vanessa's grave and his parents afterwards. Olivier sympathetically agreed.

"It was like losing the will to live. Vanessa was the world to me and, because of my obsession saving her from her own mortality, I never even got a chance to say goodbye to her. According to Olivier, I had powers beyond compare, but none of them could bring her back. So what good were they?" - Captain Collider

With the study of his altered physiology complete, Mal used the data gathered to create a 'stabilisation suit' capable of both regulating his powers and preventing the small but dangerous chance that the Power Particles in his body could become super dense and explode into a black hole with excessive use. Once his stabilisation suit was finished, Mal donned it, covered it with a layer of street clothes and, with Olivier at his side, journeyed to the cemetery where Vanessa was buried. There, he encountered her parents and, after a heartfelt moment of reconnection, reconciled with them for the mistakes he had made while Vanessa was alive.

"They told me she loved me, that she never truly resented me for what I did and I believed them. But it didn't change the fact that I wasn't there for her and it didn't help the guilt bearing down on me." - Captain Collider

After saying some final words to Vanessa and apologising for not being there for her when she most needed him, Mal broke down emotionally,convinced that he was a fool who had deluded himself into thinking he had the power to save anyone. Though Vanessa's parents assured him that he could still use his genius for good, Mal remained unconvinced and left with Olivier after recomposing himself.

"I'd never felt so hopeless in my entire life. For the first time since I could remember, there was no future for me. Not without her." - Captain Collider

As Olivier's limousine made its way over the Arcadia City's Hyperion Bridge on its way to San Francisco, the sudden arrival of a group of conspicuous motorcyclists raised alarm bells for both men -- especially when they closed in on an armoured truck a few cars away. Before either of them could come to terms with what they were seeing, the motorcyclists drew firearms and opened fire on the armoured truck, hoping to stop and loot it. Caught off-guard by the daring robbery, Olivier's hit the breaks, sending the car spiralling out of control and leaving it teetering precariously on the edge of the bridge.

"Olivier panicked. Heck, I definitely panicked. Then I remembered what I could do and...I wasn't afraid anymore. And I don't think I've been afraid since." - Captain Collider

After recovering from his initial panic, Mal mustered his courage and, with a mighty kick, booted the crushed door of the limousine off its hinges, allowing Olivier to crawl to safety. With that done, he hurriedly followed his friend out and pulled the limousine and its driver back safely onto the bridge. After ensuring that they were both fine, he looked to the high speed chase between the motorcyclists and the armoured truck, which had just crashed into a divider. Taking great care to measure his steps, Mal darted over to the scene at super speed and, just as one of the motorcyclists dismounted his bike and prepared to execute the dazed truck driver, dove between the would-be robbers and the innocent driver, the bullets of the shooter's discharged firearm ricocheting off his chest. As the shooter attempted to reload, Mal raised a hand and flicked him under his chin, sending him flying into a nearby car. As the other motorcyclists circled back around and opened fire on Mal, he rushed to meet them head on, snatching both of them off their bikes at high speed and tossing them helplessly to the floor. Much to his surprise, however, one of the motorcyclists fired off his weapon, wounding the driver of an oncoming tanker and sending the vehicle hurtling towards everyone. Buckling his legs, Mal leaped to meet the tanker and stood firmly in its path, gradually stopping its uncontrolled rampage with his bare hands. When the dust had settled and the emergency services had arrived, Mal PArton stood over three would-be robbers, stopping the wounded driver's bleeding and wearing nothing but his stabilisation suit. He had saved the day.

"When I got my powers, I never even considered using them to save lives. I was too caught up in how the Power Particles had affected me. I needed to start thinking about how they would affect the world." - Captain Collider

After answering questions for the authorities, Mal and Olivier finally arrived at his parents' place in San Francisco, albeit with fewer limousine doors than they had departed with. Leaving Olivier in the limo, Mal greeted his overjoyed parents, neither of which had truly believed he was gone. After sitting down and catching up on events he had missed and Vanessa's funeral, Mal confessed to both his parents that his accident had given him some sort of powers and that he had used them earlier to save lives. However, he also professed that he had no idea what the future held for him with Vanessa gone and his research having taken a strange turn. Fortunately, both Partons had thoughts on the matter.

"My mother told me the future adapts and changes, it's never set in stone. She said that that was the truly wonderful thing about the future: that no matter what happens, we can always shape and reshape it. Because even the darkest path just needs a little light shone on it. And my father...my father told me, as simply as always, that if I have the potential to do anything in this world, it was my responsibility to do good. It was then that I knew my life hadn't ended with Vanessa's. That I owed it to her, to myself -- to the whole world, even -- to keep on living. To keep on doing good." - Captain Collider

Saying goodbye to his parents, Mal returned to Olivier's limo and confided in him that he wanted to start using his powers for the good of mankind while still pursuing the full potential of the Power Particle and physics in a more general sense. Though Olivier was initially reluctant, he believed that the best way to do both things was to 'come out' as a superhero, allowing him to become an identifiable public figure of inspiration while still enabling him to pursue scientific inquiry as Mal Parton. Pondering the idea, Mal argued that, with his powers being as potentially vast as they were, he wanted to ensure that there would always be accountability for his actions and that everyone knew who he was and where his allegiances stood. This would both ease public opinion of him and reduce his potentially larger-than-life presence. Ever the opportunist, Olivier suggested that Mal premiere as a corporate sponsored hero, a representative not just of Unlimited Dynamics' goal to usher in a better future, but also as a symbol of that future -- the way things could and should be. Agreeing, Mal specified that he wanted his symbol to be an atom, representing the limitless possibilities of a single individual, regardless of how small or insignificant that individual might be. By the time the limo arrived at Unlimited Dynamics' HQ, both men had agreed on just what it was they wanted to achieve with the idea and began working on perfecting it.

"If I was going to help people, I needed them to know that I was, and will always be, just a man. Not a God or some figurehead, but a man trying to use extraordinary gifts to help his fellow man. And I had a feeling that I would need to remember that myself. A public identity would keep me human; it would keep me from ever believing I was anything more. How Vanessa knew me before she died...that's how I want to be remembered." - Captain Collider

Using Unlimited Dynamics' test grounds to train and explore the potential of his powers, Mal developed his already known powers of super strength, durability, speed and sense while picking up others such as his various energy and radiation blasts and particle vision along the way. At the same time, QUARK worked on developing a more streamlined, mobile stabilisation suit and Olivier began to figure out how to 'sell' the would-be superhero. After months of preparation, all three parties came together with their progress and, together, they gave birth to a new breed of superhero.

"My mother told me the future adapts and changes, it's never set in stone. She said that that was the truly wonderful thing about the future: that no matter what happens, we can always shape and reshape it. Because even the darkest path just needs a little light shone on it. And my father...my father told me, as simply as always, that if I have the potential to do anything in this world, it was my responsibility to do good. It was then that I knew my life hadn't ended with Vanessa's. That I owed it to her, to myself -- to the whole world, even -- to keep on living. To keep on doing good." - Captain Collider

In the next few weeks, the annual Arcadia City Science Expo was staged at the Wonderdome. It was here that Mal would make his debut after much preparation. As Unlimited Dynamics took the stage, so too did their new star player. In a star-studded introduction heralded by music and fireworks, Mal Parton revealed to the entire world that he was not only alive and well, but better than ever. Swooping in from on high with a flowing cape and glowing eyes, Mal premiered as the unstoppable Man of the Millennium, the Mighty Man of Molecules: Captain Collider.

"Personally, I do like the name. Dr. Collider sounds kind of self-gratifying, when you think about it. Also, a little evil." - Captain Collider

In the coming months, Captain Collider went on to prove himself a hero worthy of his grandiose introduction. Flying high over Arcadia City, he devoted himself body and mind not only to fighting the various super criminals plaguing his home, but also to everyday criminals such as muggers, burglars and crime bosses. In addition, Captain Collider also contributed his powers and skill set to helping to further scientific inquiry both as his heroic alter-ego and as Mal Parton, promoting ideals of progress forward thinking, not violence. He has created a dome on the uppermost level of Unlmited Dynamics' HQ which serves as his base of operations and regularly allows civilians to approach him there with individual problems when not out on patrol or on some parallel world.

"If you have the potential to do anything, it's your responsibility to do good. Thanks, dad." - Captain Collider

Now twenty-nine years old, but seemingly immune to the effects of aging, Mal Parton has been Captain Collider for just over three years. In that time, he has encountered and thwarted a number of supervillains, cosmic entities, interdimensional conquerors and even time travellers to tirelessly push the boundaries of science and heroism as best he can. He has built a reputation for himself in Arcadia City to the point where an entire section of the Wonderdome has been dedicated to the science behind his powers. Still, as the mystery behind the true origin of Power Particles begins to become clearer, the future impact of their discovery and Captain Collider's ultimate effect on all humanity become increasingly more dubious. Can one man completely change the future, even if he is a super man? And if so, what can he do to make that future one worth fighting for?

"A lot of people think I wear an atom on my chest because of my powers and their source, but that's not why. The atom, so small and insignificant at a glance, holds within itself unlimited potential. For growth, for change, for progress -- for the future. And when all those little particles come together, they're capable of creating anything and everything. To some my emblem is just a form of identification: to me, it's a philosophy." - Captain Collider

Powers

"Well, I don't really like to throw mine around..." - Captain Collider

Particle Manipulation

"Particles are the building blocks of all creation. They make up everything we understand to be real and, more than likely, everything we suppose to be real too. And through the manipulation of those particles, I can do a lot of good or a lot of bad. Don't worry -- I'll stick to the former." - Captain Collider

As a result of the Power Collider deconstructing his body and reconstructing it with an infusion of Power Particles in his molecular structure, Captain Collider is capable of manipulating particles of all kinds to various effects. Though the vast cosmic potential for absolute power which stems from such a potent ability is enough to give anyone a cause for concern, Captain Collider's control over the particles in his own body and the particles of those around him are severely restrained by both the human brain's comparatively small capacity compared to those of more cosmic beings and his own narrow purview of what constitutes as reality and fiction, limiters present in most human beings. As a result, his mastery over particles is both crude and simple. In addition to this weakness, Captain Collider also abhors the use of excessive violence and completely strays away from the use of more destructive applications of his power, rarely even exploring ones which only serve to destroy. This means that entire branches of his particle manipulation go completely ignored. As time passes by, however, Captain Collider refines his own powers through concentration and training, pushing the boundaries of his own potential to new highs.

Currently, Captain Collider is able to use his powers of particle manipulation to achieve the following sub-powers:

Atomic Manipulation

  • Atomic Energy Projection
  • Atomic Fists
  • Atomic Breath
  • Atomic Dissociation

Perhaps the most conventionally destructive branch of Captain Collider's powers, atomic manipulation allows him to manipulate matter on an atomic level. For obvious reasons, his general influence over such a devastating power is crude and limited, only manifesting itself in the ability to project and manipulate atomic energy in a handful of ways, such as firing concentrated beams of atomic energy from his hands, capable of heating up or blowing up anything on the receiving end. The most advanced application of Collider's control over atoms is atomic dissociation, which effectively allows him to undo the atomic bonds in objects to reduce them to fine particles -- or 'atomise' them. He has never tried to use it on a living creature and doubts he ever will.

Energy Manipulation

  • Particle Vision
  • Energy Projection
  • Energy Fists
  • Energy Absorption

With his mastery over energy, Captain Collider can fire concentrated beams of particle energy from his eyes, allowing him to perform delicate procedures at low intensities and melt through or explode objects at higher intensities. He can also absorb and resist most forms of energy based attacks, allowing him to improve or boost his own energy levels. The most devastating use of this power branch, however, is the ability to replicate and weaponise most forms of energy.

Graviton Manipulation

  • Gravitation Adaptation
  • Immobility

Another potentially catastrophic power, Captain Collider typically utilises his limited graviton manipulation to bend graviton particles around him for easy adapatation to extreme gravitational pressures or to increase his immobility during combat for defensive purposes.

Ionic Manipulation

  • Electromagnetism Manipulation
    • Electromagnetic Vision

With ionic manipulation, Captain Collider is capable of exercising control over ions, which in turn gives him control over electromagnetic forces. Though he lacks a finer control over this branch of his particle manipulation, he is able to manipulate electromagnetic waves in a way which allows him to use the entire electromagnetic spectrum to enhance or otherwise influence his vision.

Matter Manipulation

  • Density Manipulation
    • Super Strength
    • Invulnerability
    • Super Breath
    • Enhanced Lung Capacity
  • Self-Sustenance

A very intricate branch of his particle manipulation, Captain Collider generally admires the vast potential of matter manipulation. With it, he can alter his density to vastly increase his strength, durability and lung capacity. He can also survive without the need to eat, drink or sleep, which definitely helps with his workload.

Molecular Manipulation

  • Molecular Reconstruction

Though Captain Collider only has one documented sub-power permitted by his power of molecular manipulation: the ability to reconstruct certain molecules to alter their physical structure and qualities is definitely not to be taken lightly. This power is severely limited, however, as he cannot (or, perhaps, will not) alter biological organisms and must instead settle for altering non-biological objects not too complex to manipulate.

Radiation Manipulation

  • Radiation Projection
  • Radiation Fists
  • Radiation Generation
  • Radiation Absorption
  • Radioactive Vision

Generally too dangerous to use in a non-lethal capacity, radiation manipulation is one of Captain Collider's less utilised branch of powers, if not the least utilised. It's hard to be a friendly neigbourhood superhero when you're throwing around dangerous blasts of radioactive energy, after all. Still, being able to replicate, generate, project, emit and absorb different kinds of radiation has its applications in the field and in the lab.

Photon Manipulation

  • Flight
  • Super Speed
    • Enhanced Reflexes

By bending the photon particles surrounding his body, Captain Collider is able to fly or run at the speed of light. He does, however, prefer to move much slower as his reflexes, while enhanced, are nowhere near as fast as an average speedster's. He usually settles for supersonic speeds or lower when in an urban or otherwise busy environment, save for the occasional short burst of speed. While not the most offensive or defensive of his abilities, it can't be argued that photon manipulation has its utility purposes.

Positron and Electron Manipulation

  • Telescopic Vision
  • Microscopic Vision

Another infrequently used power branch, Captain Collider can manipulate positrons and electrons with a thought. He only seems to use it to enhance the range of his vision, however.

Subatomic Particle Manipulation

  • Decelerated Aging
  • Healing Factor
  • Enhanced Senses
    • Enhanced Hearing
    • Enhanced Smell
    • Enhanced Taste
    • Enhanced Balance

His most complex branch of particle manipulation, Captain Collider still doesn't really seem to have any fine control over subatomic particles. Its only effects on his powers are strictly secondary and subconscious, greatly slowing his aging process, speeding up his body's healing abilities and enhancing some of his senses to superhuman levels.

Equipment

"My suit is all the equipment I need. Besides, I don't have any pockets." - Captain Collider

Collider Stabilisation Suit

"It's what holds me together, and that -matters-. Hm-hm. Uh...sorry, that was a joke. I was -positive- it'd get a better -reaction-. No? Tough crowd." - Captain Collider

When Captain Collider's power of particle manipulation first began to manifest itself, it did so in dangerously erratic and unwieldy ways. Realising the dangers of having such little control over such devastating power and theorising that, if he ever completely lost control over the Power Particles flowing through him, he could wind up combusting into a large black hole, Captain Collider constructed the Collider Stabilisation Suit. Made out of a patented energy and radiation channeling nanoweave material called Invinciweave, the Collider Stabilisation Suit is capable of both containing Captain Collider's fluctuating power levels and offering resistance to all manner of radiation and other destructive elements, making its exceedingly difficult to penetrate or tear while remaining flexible and skintight enough to be worn comfortably.

In addition to the Invinciweave bodysuit, the stabilisation suit is also outfitted with a number of focusing devices which allow the hero to better control and concentrate his particle manipulation. Crafted out of a kendrium alloy designed to make them both durable and adept at funneling otherwise unstable energies, the stabilisation suit's bracers and boots can better channel and control Captain Collider's powers while also acting as power limiters. The belt -- crafted from the same material -- acts as the essential element in monitoring the Power Particles in Captain Collider's molecular structure, keeping him structurally sound and giving him fine control over all aspects of his particle manipulation. Finally, the headpiece acts as an amplifier and modulator for the neurological link between Captain Collider's powers and his mind, better allowing him to 'will' himself to use his powers in more refined ways.

Primary functions aside, the suit is also outfitted with life support systems which allow Captain Collider to operate in the vacuum of space, underwater and in other dangerous conditions unabated, is interlaced with adaptive nanofibres which allow him to change its colours at the push of a button and has an in-built computer which lets him log data and perform a wide variety of minor tasks while out and about, including communicating with QUARK, the friendly robot designed by Captain Collider himself.

When Captain Collider first opted to become a costumed superhero, the prototype stabilisation suit was revised and redesigned by Unlimited Dynamics' PR and marketing departments to make it more 'heroic' and 'friendly'. After adding a less drab colour scheme, a bright cape and an atom as a chest emblem, the suit changed from an impersonal containment suit to the costume Collider wears into battle every day and -- though it has been tweaked or upgraded one or twice along the way -- it has remained a constant reminder of the hero's roots and the importance of being responsible with the power he has.

When not operating as a superhero, Captain Collider usually uses his molecular reconstruction to transmute the suit into his regular clothes. This process happens within the blink of an eye and, to most anyone watching, it would appear as if a giant atom is engulfing the glowing form of Mal Parton and, in a burst of light, transforming him into Captain Collider.


QUARK

"I made QUARK to be my assistant, but I'm glad to say he became much more than that. I don't want to think about where I'd be without him." - Captain Collider

While attempting to prove the existence of the Power Particle and harness its potential, Mal Parton decided to decrease his workload and expedite the process by inventing a multipurpose robotic assistant. Resembling a particle in design, the diminutive robot, QUARK, was made to maximise its mobility in the lab and in the field, forgoing traditional bipedal movement in favour of levitation and flight through the use of gravitational electromagnetic propulsion, whgich is capable of matching Captain Collider's cruising flight/run speed and his usual maximum speed when pushed. Built with a learning artificial intelligence, QUARK possesses the intuitive mind and personality of a human with the processing potential of an advanced robot. In order to make his robotic assistant more friendly and endearing, Mal also gave QUARK a 'voicebox' which allows him to simulate human speech patterns to create his own voice and identity. He also gave QUARK the ability to express its simulated emotional states through the use of emoticons, which are projected on the screen it uses for a 'face'. In place of hands, QUARK utilises concentrated tractor beam projectors mounted on either side of its spherical body, allowing it to manipulate several objects at once through the use of multiple beams. For durability, his outer plating is constructed out of a titanium alloy, making him resistant to harm, but not to a significant degree.

Apart from its various outer features, QUARK also possesses a number of secondary features implanted to better serve Mal during his day to day work. As well as using its 'face' to communicate, QUARK can present information on it like a computer or a television and can even act as a two way video communication device. Its tractor beam projectors can be used to project force fields and fire defensive stun blasts, equivalent in strength to your average taser but also capable of being adjusted for added power or to charge something with electricity. Additionally, a number of useful tools are stored within QUARK's body to be used by the robot itself or anyone who so chooses to take advantage of its services. QUARK is also capable of tapping into various radio frequencies and remotely interfacing with technological devices of various shapes and sizes, manipulating tehm or accessing their information. A universal translator allows him to interpret any known language of human or alien origin and seamlessly translate it with a very small margin of error. An omni-scanner built into its top half can be used to scan any number of substances, organisms or energy forms to identify or further analyse them using the robot's wide database of information and has, in more recent times, been outfitted with enhanced vision settings to match Captain Collider's. For added analysis or storage purposes, a retractable draw can also be used. For additional storage of foreign objects, QUARK has a limited amount of space set aside as a storage compartment in its back. This compartment is usually used to store any of Captain Collider's mission specific equipment or a spare stabilisation suit. Running on a long-lasting, rechargeable power source, QUARK gains power from solar and electrical energy, which can easily be provided by sunlight or Captain Collider.

Since donning his cape and becoming a hero, Captain Collider has found QUARK to be an invaluable ally and has a habit of using him as a 'sidekick', albeit in a support capacity. Though the robot isn't much use in a fight, he has used what few offensive measures he has to save Captain Collider's life on more than one occasion. With its somewhat timid and unadventurous personality, however, QUARK isn't too fond of having to risk his 'life' doing so and is always ready to voice his apprehension towards Captain Collider's dangerous lifestyle.


The Power Collider

"The Power Collider. Both my greatest creation and my most devastating failure. Only time will tell if it will spell disaster or salvation for the world but, no matter what happens, it will always be my greatest responsibility." - Captain Collider

Created for the purpose of discovering the Power Particle through the collision of other accelerated particles, the Power Collider was expected to change the very foundations of human existence for the better by allowing for superpowers to be reliably bestowed upon any given subject with an almost imperceptible margin of error. After Mal Parton activated the Power Collider for the first time, however, a spontaneous act of self-sacrifice combined with an unknown variable to cause an unexpected turn of events. Though the variable allowed the Power Collider to work on that particular occasion, Mal was bombarded by its accelerated particle beams. Torn apart and reconstructed on a subatomic level, he became infused with stable Power Particles and gained extraordinary powers over particles both internal and external. With these powers he became Captain Collider, the Man of the Millennium and a shining example of mankind's bright future and unlimited potential.

Though he tried to replicate the extraneous, unforeseen variable that led to the successful creation of Power Particles many times following his accident, Mal has yet to succeed in doing so and limits himself out of a fear that his experiments may do more harm than good. Nevertheless, the Power Collider remains situated in the very centre of Captain Collider's headquarters, the Tower of Power, and plays a vital role both in the present and, as Captain Collider is beginning to discover, in the future. As more and more metahumans imbued with stable and unstable Power Particles continue to surface and denizens from other worlds, realities and timelines make appearances in our own, the question of whether the Power Collider and the discovery of the Power Particle ushers in mankind's ascension or damnation begins to weigh more heavily on Captain Collider's mind and the events unfolding around him.


Nullymer Cape: Captain Collider's cape is made out of the experimental hyper-durable polymer known as Nullymer, created by Mal Parton himself. Through the use of a unique and subtle vibrational frequency constantly resonating through its atomic bonds, Nullymer is able to 'negate' most harmful substances and elements to a significant degree, making it ideal for protecting its wearer from all manner of harm. By using his Nullymer cape, Captain Collider can protect himself and others from danger, smother fires and other destructive forces, cloak himself from certain means of detection and, in a pinch, weaponise it against his enemies as an expanding net, though Captain Collider has always believed that particular function to be a bit ridiculous.


Consortium Power Suit: Procured from a member of the Collider Consortium during their invasion of Arcadia City, the Consortium Power Suit is a suit of future technology infused with Power Particles to the degree that the wearer is able to mimic the powers of Captain Collider himself to a lesser degree. Unable to operate for too long without losing its energy, the power suit can only be used for a maximum of twenty-four hours before it requires a 'rest period' to recharge itself. Realising the danger of the power suit, the implications it may have on his research into Power Particles and its negative impact on the future, Captain Collider regularly studies it in the hopes that he will one day be able to use it to prevent a future where the Collider Consortium exists.


The Parton Portal: An interdimensional portal generator created by Mal Parton for the purpose of branching out to other dimensions in search of perfected Power Particles, the Parton Portal was an unmitigated disaster as, on its very first run, it opened a gateway to a dimension of endless war and destruction known only as Point Z. From Point Z, the Antimatron arrived in our world and may have destroyed a large part of it if not for Captain Collider righting his wrongs. Though he vowed never to utilise the Parton Portal again, Captain Collider was forced to use it to trap a rampaging Captain Chernobyl where he could do no harm, sequestered in a universe already ravaged by ceaseless chaos. Although Captain Collider abhors his creation with every fibre of his being, he cannot bring himself to destroy it once and for all if only because of its utility in disposing of threats with power far exceeding his own.

Abilities

"I'm very good at integral and differential calculus; I know the scientific names of beings animalculous~" - Captain Collider

Super-Genius Level Intellect: Endowed with an IQ of 300, Captain Collider possesses a super-genius level of intelligence and a brilliant scientific mind. With his level of intelligence, Collider has ready access to an eidetic memory, a high capacity for academic progression and the uncanny ability to think faster and on a higher level of reasoning than most people, which makes him well-suited to the mental toll of exercising his powers. Truly, his mind is the most valuable asset.


Brilliant Physicist: With multiple PhDs in particle physics, mechanical engineering, robotics, quantum mechanics and metahuman science, as well as bits of knowledge from other branches of physics picked up throughout his career, Captain Collider's highly-trained scientific mind is only the result of a natural affinity for scientific pursuits. His vast knowledge of physics is also regularly applied to his crimefighting and the use of his powers.


Expert Chemist and Biologist: Though not as adept in either of these subjects as he is in physics, Captain Collider's knowledge of chemistry and biology is nothing to be sniffed at and he's usually able to put it to good use. Of particular note is his moderate level of study in biochemistry, genetics and xenobiology.


Multilingualism: Having used a mixture of his super speed and his eidetic memory to greatly expedite the learning process, Captain Collider has become fluent in a vast number of Earth's many languages. It would be far easier to list the number he has yet to gain some understanding of than it would be to list all the ones he can speak. He knows no alien languages yet, though he has taught himself sign language and knows how to read lips.

Personality

"I may not always look it, but I'm one of the good guys. I'm just a little more...bioluminescent." - Captain Collider

Personable, sincere and generally upbeat, Captain Collider is a genuinely nice person inside and out. A generous, gentle soul, he only wants happiness for as many people as possible and truly wants to see the good in everybody. In his mind, altruism is the human condition and the only reasonable way to ensure mankind's progression as a species. As such, he always goes out of his way to make sure everyone is treated fairly and with a modicum of human decency, even the ones who may not deserve it.

Captain Collider is loyal and trusting to his friends, merciful to his foes and polite to anyone else. This all-loving personality is reflected in his pacifistic philosophy, which he references regularly and always strives to maintain. To Captain Collider, violence in any case where violence is not strictly needed is the result of a failure by people to act as civilised creatures and, therefore, an embarrassment to human intelligence. That isn't to say he completely avoids violence, however; levelheaded and reasonable, he understands the necessity of it and rarely ever impresses his own views of non-violence on others. The one exception to this is when he perceives others as being irresponsible or selfish with their power. Responsibility and duty are very important to Captain Collider, especially in the wake of receiving his powers. He believes it is his responsibility as a person to use his powers for good and frowns upon anyone who exploits them either for the sake of evil or their own personal gain. He also can be rather outspoken about his views when confronting those he believes to be responsible for unnecessary conflict and war, including some heroes. This approach to the use of superpowers specifically stems from his own fear of causing harm to others or losing track of his humanity. With responsibility close at heart, he exercises extreme caution to make sure he never crosses any boundaries -- perhaps to a noticeable fault.

A man of science, Captain Collider has a seemingly boundless curiosity when it comes to the subject and seems to approach any opportunity to expand his intellectual horizons with an adventuresome, overzealous spirit which contrasts starkly with his usual sobriety. Indeed, he has an almost unquenchable thirst for understanding how all things work, from the complexities of the universe to the mind of a supervillain. In addition, he usually confronts obstacles with the lateral mind of a scientist, preferring to take the thinking man's path to victory over any other. At times, Captain Collider can hardly stop himself at expressing awe or excitement at some of the many marvels he stumbles upon during his adventures and always seems to view things within the context of either bettering humanity or bettering scientific advancement -- though the two often go hand in hand in his mind. He holds knowledge and information in great esteem and believes that both are fundamental to any sapient species. When the stakes are high, however, Captain Collider will gladly pick mankind over science any day of the week, with only the slightest pang of remorse in some cases.

Though it's easy to get lost in Captain Collider's larger than life presence and power, the hero readily indulges in his humanity, warts and all. Still your average nerd, he can be somewhat awkward and cautious in spite of his, quite frankly, intimidating physical form. He still conducts himself with the mannerisms of a man much more accustomed to burying his head in a book than saving lives. His speech and body language can sometimes be stiff and overly overly formal and he seems to take most people -- facetious or not -- at face value, often responding seriously to subtle jabs and sarcastic remarks. Despite his modest nature, Captain Collider is sometimes prone to parading his own intelligence around, rattling off information or coming in with a pithy quote. He usually apologises for even the slightest show of arrogance, however, his modesty exceeding his intellect. His pacifism, though admirable in some ways, can occasionally border on naivete, especially when dealing with more morally grey scenarios. Indeed, he is strongly devoted to his own personal beliefs and can become indignant when they're drastically infringed upon -- especially when his good nature or the science he loves so dearly is taken advantage of. When this happens, he tosses aside his usual docility and shows a much sterner, angrier side. Behind his usual sunny disposition, the burden of Captain Collider's powers and the constant challenges to his overly optimistic worldviews constantly weigh on his soul. If not for his own great patience and strong moral fibre, he would be much more prone to outbursts. He has a great amount of respect for tradition and laws, so long as he believes they perform the intended task of serving the people and -- as a staunchly left wing person -- he isn't afraid to speak his mind when he believes the world isn't working as it should be..

On a more personal note, Captain Collider loves people, regularly touring the world on his university lecture circuits and attending public events on behalf of Unlimited Dynamics. He has a fairly good sense of humour and rarely takes offense to the odd joke on his behalf -- though his own attempts at humour are often rather awkward and groan-inducing. Open-minded to the extreme, he's always willing to 'go with the flow' and try new things. He is a connoisseur of the arts, literature and the science of cooking, and is a published author in his own right, having written various non-fiction books on his research. His tastes in music are also surprisingly erratic, and he seems to bounce from classical to political rap to Japanese pop music with no real sense of consistency. Despite his friendliness, Captain Collider is still very much an introvert and likes to spend time alone to be with his thoughts or to just recuperate when the hustle and bustle gets to be overwhelming. In romance, he has a tendency to be traditional and the slightest bit shy, far from a womaniser or a playboy. If he develops romantic feelings for a woman, he rarely if ever makes the first move and usually tries to keep his affections to himself, having only been with one woman his entire life and not quite used to being 'attractive' yet.

Captain Collider's Myers-Briggs personality type is ISFJ.

Friends & Allies

"The English metaphysical poet, John Domme, once wrote that no man is an island. I wouldn't be a sound molecular structure without those all-important bonds! ...That one was a little corny even for me." - Captain Collider

NPCs

Olivier Martin: The president and CEO of Unlimited Dynamics, Olivier is Captain Collider's boss and his best friend. Born into money and having inherited his post from his father, he has a tendency to be somewhat spoiled and ignorant of other people but is an inherently good person beneath it all and a savvy businessman.

Vanessa Morello: Captain Collider's deceased wife and and a chemist of some renown. She died of a mysterious and rare disease while Mal Parton was pursuing the Power Particle as a means of curing her, though as time passes by, he begins to suspect that her mysterious and rare disease may not have been so mysterious after all...

Gerald and Regina Parton: Captain Collider's parents, the Partons are loving and nurturing towards their son and are fully aware of his new superhero lifestyle. Though they worry about him, they trust him to use his intelligence and morality to make the world a better place for his being in it. Mr. Parton acts as an intellectual and philosophical mentor to their son while Mrs. Parton offers more moralistic advice.

Melinda Parton: A successful executive for Unlimited Dynamics' competitor, Steel Industries, Captain Collider's sister is ambitious and ruthless in business but very much cares for her older brother, despite their conflicting ideologies. Captain Collider worries that she may end up getting involved in the company's more shady dealings.

Nicholas Parton: An artist, musician, writer or whatever else catches his fancy, Captain Collider's older brother may be the 'black sheep' of the family but he is also a kind and positive person who his younger brother looks up to and regularly seeks advice from, especially following his accident. With his creative mind Nicholas frequently comes up with solutions and ideas which may have evaded Captain Collider's more logical way of thinking.

QUARK: A diminutive robotic assistant invented by Captain Collider to help expedite some of his workload, QUARK mostly carries out more menial tasks during the scientist's research and occasionally monitors his altered physiology.

BLACKSMITH

Real Name: Maxwell Steel
Powers/Abilities: Super-Genius Level Intellect, Future Tech
Occupation: President of Steel Industries (Power Company)
Origin: Natural(?)
Motivation: ???
The CEO and president of Steel Industries -- a competitor of Unlimited Dynamics -- by day, Maxwell Steel has a habit of donning a hi-tech helmet and getting up to dubious activity as the mysterious criminal known as Blacksmith by night, often dipping his hand in high-stakes criminal activity and even outfitting certain criminals with technology far beyond what is readily available to most. Though he seems to be your average crime boss, he is, in actuality, a time traveller from some unknown future. His only goal is to destroy Captain Collider -- and he appears to be empowering individuals with a stabilised batch of future Power Particles to do just that.

Occupation: Super Criminal (Power Company)
Origin: Science
Motivation: Emotional
Needing a weapon capable of posing a legitimate threat to the newly surfaced hero, Blacksmith used a canister of concentrated Power Particles he had brought with him from the future to create one from a victim no one would miss: the lonely, anti-social janitor, Randall Pinkman. Targeting Pinkman as his subject, Blacksmith secretly subjected him to the gas transforming him into the grotesque Amorphous Man. After being manipulated into blaming Captain Collider for his accident, the Amorphous Man attacked the hero, almost besting him before a narrow loss. Now, he struggles to find a cure for his condition, and will do anything to anyone to get it, even if it means going through the hero trying to help him and siding with the villain who wants to use him.

Dr. Joshua Streek was once Dr. Malcolm Parton's most outspoken advocate, despite working at Steel Industries When Mal became Captain Collider, Streek made a failed attempt at replicating his accident, flinging himself into a strange machine left there by Maxwell Steel (Blacksmith) and giving him an almost cosmic level of control over electricity. Though he attempted to be the hero Powerline, his lack of responsibility endangered lives. When confronted by Captain Collider, he lashed out in anger, sparking a fight which ended in his defeat. Now embittered towards Captain Collider, Powerline has decided to settle for being the villain that killed the hero. He has on multiple occasions taken on the role of a violent anti-hero, earning the ire of Captain Collider despite his intentions.

There, the Blacksmith offered to use Power Particles to give him an enhanced set of his father's power so long as he targeted Captain Collider too. Putting both in his sights, Hirsch became the second Mirror and forced the two completely opposite heroes to team up. Now, the Mirror II hopes to restore his father's name by taking down Captain Collider.

Consisting of the first six metahumans created by Blacksmith through the use of his future Power Particles, Power Company was formed as the actualisation of Blacksmith's master plan to defeat Captain Collider, but disguised and pitched as a petty revenge gang to its other members. Convincing his unwitting pawns to put aside their differences in the hopes of accomplishing just that, Blacksmith finally revealed his presence to Captain Collider with the team at his back and proceeded to lead them against the unprepared hero. Through a combination of luck and wit, Captain Collider was able to narrowly defeat the team. Since then, it has been reassembled by its members sans Blacksmith on numerous occasions.

The tectonite mutated the dinosaurs over the course of the next few years, recreating them in more humanoid and intelligent forms. Calling themselves the Dinomen, these creatures have lived extended lifespans beneath the Earth, where they harness tectonite ore for its mystic powers. They answer only to their warchief, Omnivorous Rex.

MISS PERFECT

Real Name: Ivanna Kazakov
Powers/Abilities: Enhanced Strength and Durability, Bionic Physiology, Tachyon Vision
Occupation: Super Criminal
Origin: Tech
Motivation: Emotional
Once a popular Russian supermodel dubbed 'Miss Perfect' by the media, Ivanna Kazakov's decadent lifestyle soon came to an abrupt end when an evening of drinking and driving led to a violent car accident. Disfigured beyond repair, Kazakov was desperate to reclaim the beauty that defined her: so desperate that she accepted Maxwell Steel's sinister offer to implant her consciousness into a robotic body. The limitations of Kazakov's new body on her old life quickly began to drive her mad to the point where Steel was able to direct her anger towards Captain Collider for failing to save her. Though Kazakov's subsequent attempt on the hero's life was thwarted, she still pursues him every opportunity she gets.

KILLAMANGYRO

Real Name: N/A
Powers/Abilities: Enhanced Strength, Invulnerability, Size Manipulation, Energy Absorption
Occupation: N/A
Origin: Cosmic/Tech
Motivation: Nature
When a meteor began hurtling towards Earth at an alarming rate, Captain Collider intercepted and slowed it before it could endanger any lives. When he finished his task, all that remained was a large metallic ball which he left in the care of the facility monitoring the event. A few days later, however, the ball, fully charged by the facility's electricity, deployed into a towering man of metal. The giant then single-mindedly lumbered through the country, feeding on any energy it could find and gradually growing in size. It was only through Captain Collider's efforts that the creature that would eventually be named 'Killamangyro' was eventually defeated and placed in a special containment facility under the Pacific Ocean.

EGGHEAD

Real Name: Edmund Goodgrave
Powers/Abilities: Super-Genius Level Intellect
Occupation: Professional Criminal
Origin: Natural
Motivation: Power/Fame
Once a highly skilled criminal mastermind, Edmund Goodgrave was frequently hired by various criminal organisations for his intellect and precision. When hired by Arcadia City's branch of the Triad to mastermind the theft of a priceless jade statue, however, his spotless record was marred by the interference of Captain Collider. Fixated on this new challenge, Goodgrave began planning heist after heist against his employer's wishes. It was only on his twelfth 'defeat' that he finally cracked. Killing his infuriated employer and modelling his new philosophy and identity after the perfect symbol of uncertainty, Goodgrave became the Egghead -- the world's finest criminal mind. He has since devoted his life to outwitting Captain Collider and proving himself as the greatest criminal who ever lived.

THE FISSIONEER

Real Name: Dr. Perry Hamilton
Powers/Abilities: Replication, Brilliant Nuclear Physicist
Occupation: Super Criminal
Origin: Science
Motivation: Money
A doctor of nuclear physics, Perry Hamilton often found himself being beaten to the punch by others in his line of work, too busy being torn between several different theses and projects to complete one. When sudden exposure to a blast of nuclear energy while in possession of a defunt piece of future tech retrieved from Blacksmith granted him the power to split himself into several copies, his priorities took on a sudden change. Finally able to perform several tasks at once, Hamilton became the Fissioneer and used his duplicates to sabotage other competing projects before Captain Collider put a stop to him. Now a disgraced criminal, the Fissioneer makes ends meet through crime rather than science.

ALPHA COLLIDER

Real Name: Alexander Parton
Powers/Abilities: Consortium Power Suit, Future Tech
Occupation: Leader of the Collider Consortium
Origin: Tech
Motivation: Purpose/Ideals
Hailing from a distant future where an entire order of 'Colliders' has been formed to uphold the law, Alpha Collider is the elected leader of the Collider Consortium and its most powerful member. Leading the Consortium to the original Captain Collider's time supposedly to retrieve Blacksmith, Alpha Collider and the Consortium showed their true colours when they attempted to execute the villain. Revealed to be intergalactic dictators who had developed an almost cultish obsession with Captain Collider by Blacksmith, the Consortium attempted to procure the original Power Collider to enhance their abilities. With Blacksmith's assistance, Captain Collider fought Alpha Collider and the Consortium to a standstill and trapped them all in Point Z until a more permanent solution presents itself.

Type: Organisation
Origin: Founded
Motivation: Purpose/Ideals
From a future where Captain Collider has retreated from the universe, the Collider Consortium originally started as an organisation modelled after the hero, mimicking his abilities iwth suits infused with Power Particles to uphold universal law. However, they soon began enforcing a dictatorship across the universe and using their power to oppress others 'for their own good'. Developing an obsession with their hero, all members of the Consortium took the surname 'Parton' and many even altered their appearances to resemble him. After travelling back in time to harness the Power Collider, all known members of the Collider Consortium were trapped in Point Z.

Motivation: Emotional/Insanity
Quantum physicist Erwin Anatole was thought to have died when his machine designed to enable dimensional travel seemingly removed him from existence. In reality, the the machine scattered his atoms across all dimensions, leaving him in a ghost-like state of both existence and non-existence. Driven mad with loneliness, Anatole became 'Doctor Paradox' and travelled through time, killing key individuals to undo his accident. When Captain Collider discovered and explained that his victims would be counted as both alive and dead by the timestream, which would assign their future achievements to others to fill its gaps, a devastated Anatole attempted to travel to the beginning of all existence to change the laws of physics and apparently ceased to exist on arrival.

PRESUMED DECEASED

Weaknesses

"Lately I've been partial to a little Korean Pop music, but I don't think that's what you're asking." - Captain Collider

Earth-Shattering Kaboom: Captain Collider's greatness weakness is his lack of fine control over his powers. If the belt of his suit is damaged beyond repair and the strain on his powers is too great, it is a strong possibility that he could explode into super dense particles, creating a black hole in his wake. The fear of doing such a thing constantly weighs on him and prompts him to limit himself.

Right In The Joules: Captain Collider may have great power, but pushing it too far causes him to run the risk of losing his molecular stability, even while wearing his stabilisation suit. As such, pushing him to his very limits is a good way to take him down.

Pushing Your Quark: He also runs the risk of losing his molecular stability if he absorbs too much energy, though the upper limits of the amount he can absorb is unknown.

Abra Kadabr-ouch: As with many science-based heroes, Captain Collider has little resistance against magic based attacks and is far more vulnerable to them than any other means of attack.

Made From Concentrate: Captain Collider's powers are extremely difficult to control with precision and the more complex abilities require concentration to be used with any proficiency.

Nice Guys Finish Last: A genuinely nice person is rarely treated with kindness in turn, especially when facing not-so-nice people. Captain Collider cares about everyone, no matter whom and this leaves him vulnerable to those willing to exploit that considerate nature.

Plight of the Pacifist: Captain Collider is a textbook pacifist. He doesn't believe that violence and aggression are suitable ways to approach any problem which can just as well be solved through diplomacy and a level-head. A smart opponent can take advantage of this 'weakness', so long as they remember that even his pacifistic views have their logical limit.

Head Strong: In order to effectively use his powers, Captain Collider needs to understand the particles he's working with and what he's doing with them. If you cut off his knowledge or screw around with his mind enough, you can cut off his powers. A good psionic is a big weakness.

Tachyon Trouble: Perhaps because he has no control over tachyons, concentrated tachyon bursts can temporarily disorient the Power Particles in Captain Collider's system, affecting his perception of time, his age, his control over his powers, his ability to use his powers at all and even his sight in some instances. The effects of tachyons on his system are generally unpredictable, however, and hitting him with too concentrated a blast can be just as dangerous to his attacker.

Cold As Ice: Though it takes a lot to accomplish it, Captain Collider's molecules react like any other when cooled to a sufficient degree. If an opponent is able to freeze him completely solid it would, at the very least, take him a very long time to thaw out on his own and, at the very most, completely neutralise him. A truly prepared enemy can even completely freeze an entire room or lower its temperature to absoule zero to prevent him from reconstructing anything in it.

Supermen Can't Multitask: Though Captain Collider's particle manipulation can be used to induce a great number of effects, it is nearly impossible for the hero to use too many at once, especially the more powerful ones. For instance he is far more vulnerable to physical damage when reconstructing molecules and so on. An opponent who times their attacks right can capitalise on his vulnerabilities tremendously.

As You Live And Breathe: Either through his own unwillingness to do so or an actual limitation of his powers, Captain Collider cannot reconstruct living organisms. While not a weakness in a traditional sense of the word, it's helpful to know which lines he won't cross.

Test Your Metal: Captain Collider is incapable of seeing through lead or questionite with any of his vision-based powers.

Projecting Problems: While Captain Collider can project atomic energy, nuclear energy, fire and ice blasts and more, he is only able to channel and project one kind of energy at any given time. He is incapable of mixing and matching multiple energy types and, instead, must settle for 'switching out'.

Can You Hear Me Now: With his enhanced sense of hearing, Captain Collider is particularly susceptible to sonic based attacks and has little resistance against them.

"I'm not too difficult to get a hold of, provided I'm not on another planet. Or another plane of existence." - Captain Collider
  • If you're a scientist or a science enthusiast, you might be familiar with Captain Collider's work and presence in the scientific world. You might even have worked with him before or after he became a hero.
  • A student studying physics at university? Perhaps Captain Collider has given you a lecture at some point.
  • It's not unlikely that you may have seen Captain Collider attending or participating in a charity event.
  • Captain Collider has published a number of books about the Power Particle and other key topics of physics in his long-spanning career as a physicist. Interested in the subject? Maybe you've read one.

Trivia

"'The more I learn, the more I realise how much I don't know.' Albert Einstein. Of course, he couldn't dissociate atomic structures by pointing at them, but I feel it's still appropriate." - Captain Collider
  • Captain Collider is inspired by: Captain Atom (DC), Firestorm (DC), Superman (DC), The Atom (DC), The Flash (DC), Dr. Manhattan (DC), Blue Marvel (Marvel), Hank Pym (Marvel) and Mr. Fantastic (Marvel)
  • QUARK is inspired by: Skeets (DC) and H.E.R.B.I.E (Marvel)
  • If I had to pick a voice actor for Captain Collider it would definitely be LeVar Burton
  • Captain Collider has written a number of books on particle physics including his best-seller, 'The Power Particle'.
  • Captain Collider regularly gives lectures on physics at various universities and finds teaching to be one of the greatest joys in life.
  • Captain Collider makes frequent use of a swear jar. If he's lucky, he usually ends up with an average of $3 a year.
  • When Captain Collider's costume was first designed it had a red and black colour scheme. After wearing it once he quickly informed the designers that it was too 'menacing' and asked for a more calming primary colour.
  • One downside to Captain Collider's newfound physical presence is the difficulty he now has finding clothes in his size. He doesn't care for loose-fitting jerseys because he's unfamiliar with most of the sports personalities they're branded after.
  • Oddly enough, Captain Collider was a boy scout for a short time in his youth but quickly left in favour of science camp.
  • Captain Collider has a tendency to be ever so slightly excessive when it comes to keeping things in a neat, orderly manner. In some cases, he claims he can hardly concentrate when there's mess about.
  • Captain Collider is an absolutely terrible cook.
  • Captain Collider is a big fan of rom-coms for whatever reason. It's not really something anyone wants to understand.
  • Though he has the power to manipulate particles themselves now, Captain Collider hasn't retired from his role as a physicist. Far from it, he actively uses his new powers to aid in his scientific investigation and to help other scientists.
  • Captain Collider isn't particularly handy. Since receiving his powers he has been trying to improve himself, however.
  • Rather predictably, Captain Collider is very into sci-fi and fantasy genres. Though he doesn't spend quite as much time indulging in his habits as he used to, he knows a fair bit about the two genres.
  • It's a good thing Captain Collider is a pacifist because he has no combat training whatsoever. When he does need to fight hand-to-hand he usually just throws simple punches.
