Redemption
Redemption is a net.hero created by Jef Kolodziej. | |
Alter Ego: | Geoffrey |
Aliases: | Sufferyng |
Primary Writer: | Saxon Brenton |
Status: | Associate of Artemis. Former member of the LNH Brats. As Sufferyng, arch-enemy wannabe of the LNH (Classic Team). As Redemption, provisional member of the LNH. |
Usability: | On the one hand, Saxon reserved him at one point; on the other hand, that was a long time ago, and Jef threw all his characters to Free For Use. (And I'm pretty sure Saxon had a policy of letting his peripheral characters be usable if he didn't use them for a certain length of time?--[[[Jeanne Morningstar|JM]]]) Maybe I'll ask Saxon later. |
History
Redemption is, along with Mister Minister, one of two sons of Rebel Yell and Lurking Lass (not) from an alt.ernate future. As Sufferyng, he first came to the LNH's attention during the Electrocutioner's Song, when he worked for Acton Lord on creating a Transmode Virus to destabilise Sig.Lad. In fact, the Virus was just a front.
Later, he was kidnapped away from Acton Lord by Mr. Minister for the latter's grand plan of revenge against his family. When Mr. Minister's plan was thwarted, Mr. Minister and Sufferyng were believed killed in a mishap that merged them together. In actuality, this death was faked by the use of Mr. Minister's PMD (Paper Mache Decoy) technology.
Geoffrey was later recruited by Artemis, an old acquaintance and former lover, to help prevent a future destruction of humanity in another timeline. To do so, he adopted the net.hero codename Redemption and joined the LNH on a trial membership. Irony Man is still wondering what set his powers off that time.
He left the Legion under mysterious circumstances during the time skip between Limp-Asparagus Lad #20 and #33.
Personality
Kind-hearted, disposed to brooding, indecisive, easily led, weak willed, pettily vindictive. While not malevolent per se, Geoffrey has in the past found it easier to follow the directions of others than to stand by his principles.
Powers and Abilities
Hiding behind absurdly small objects; generic scientific genius.
Appearance
As Redemption, blue and white spandex costume with a blue cape. As Sufferyng, black armour with lots of nasty sharp blades and spikes, plus bits of toilet paper where he cut himself getting the armour on.
