PC Spotlight: Alex Kross/Mr. Zozo

 

I think I want to try something new and create a space to catalog the characters I play. I have lost so many characters to time and retirement. I think this would be a cool way for me to keep track of various characters I am playing and let everyone else see who/what I am playing. 

So,  without further ado, here is my first one. 

Game: Even Heroes Bleed

System: Blood of Heroes

Name: Alex Kross/Mr. Zozo

History: Alex Kross grew up a wealthy style as both of his parents were lawyers and rooted in high society. Instead of taking his studies seriously, he embraced the wild side of life and spent a good amount of his teenage years going to be parties and coming home in handcuffs. After he barely graduated high school, his parents threatened to cut him off unless he went to college and hopefully take the law route. Due to his parents money and connections, he got into college but switched his major to photography just to give his old man the middle finger.

Suffice to say, his parents were not pleased during his graduation ceremony when his major was announced. Alex was promptly cut off (though his mom still sends him money from time to time). After working various odd jobs until he landed a job as a fashion photographer (which also help sate his hunger for the night life). After a few years working this gig he was invited to photograph some crazy cult ritual but as it turns out, the ritual was for real and something went wrong. Alex was the only one to escaped with his life but not before being possessed by the demon they were trying to summon.

It was a hard few years as they had to learn to work and live together. The demon wants to avoid returning to hell and Alex wants to redeem his soul. 

Alex now works as a freelance photography and Private Investigator taking special interest in occult or supernatural cases. These jobs is just a cover for his true mission, which is to banish as many evil entities back to where ever the came from while saving the lives of those the effect. 

Personality: Alex is a n easy going person that does not let anything effect him. He has a nonchalant attitude that can infuriating to people around him - even in dire situations. This coupled with his love for parties can make him fun or an annoyance to be around. Alex has not really bought into the whole idea of being an hero and does not consider himself one. He has a job to due and he does it.

Powers: The binding of the demon has left him physically stronger, able to heal, detect the use of mystical abilities, and even absorb energy. Though, his true power awakens when he calls on the demon to merge with his body instead of just his soul. His transformation increases his power ten fold and allows the use of a soul searing fire, flight, and greater resistances. 

Drawbacks/Vulnerabilities: Uncontrolled Change (Magic Beasts), Secret ID, Dark Secret, Exile Voluntary,  avoids science lectures, irrational hatred of religion, fear of death, will not kill
