If you were a Super-Villain, What would your Powers/backstory be?

[MasochisticAvenger]

Name: Masochistic Avenger

Power: Guns

Backstory: There is only so much bullshit one man can be expected to put up with. Driven to insantiy by the amount of assholes in the world, Masochistic Avenger came to believe humanity as a whole did not have the right to exist. Little by little, he sets out to kill the entire world.

Motivation: Some jerk who threatened me with physical violence because they expected me to walk on the grass because his wife was too much of a ***** to get out of the way (I was walking on the correct side of the footpath, they were walking side by side so she was on the wrong side of the footpath. I maintain I had no obligation to move). On top of that, pretty much anyone that pisses me off which is about 95% of the planet at this point.

Yeah, I'm kind of in a bad mood at the moment. I don't like getting threatened and feeling so scared there is nothing I can do but apologize to some jerk-off who thinks everyone should bow down to him. I'm honestly starting to root for 2012 to actually happen.

 

[Alduin Silas]

Name: Casimir
Power: Shapeshifter/Metamorph
Backstory: His world torn apart by violence, his species wiped out, and on a foreign planet with a bunch of humans trying to do the same to one another.
Motivation: He's the last left, why should he care?

 

[Devin Curry]

If I was a super villain, it'd be very similar to being a superhero, So I guess you can say this is the "Alternate evil universe" version of me...

I'd be an animal-themed villain, most likely based on an animal that you wouldn't think is evil; and I would have the reflexes, skill, speed, strength equal to that of the animal (only scaled up to human size.)

What animal? I'd be a Fennec fox, Somewhat mysterious because of my nocturnal habits, but also have superhuman hearing and jumping abilities and the natural uncanny ability to withstand high desert temperatures.

I'd have no idea if the powers would be given to me from either mutation or use of advanced technology (or a mix of both), but there's the basics.

Sure, I'm not a criminal mastermind, but more of a quirky villain that would probably have his own deep reasons for turning to the side of evil and probably ends up getting hired by a greater villian because he "convinced" me that he has the answer to my deep problem. I'd fit best being a Batman villain, since those can be silly in appearance but have problems that stem from their past.

 

[Frostbyte]

Name: Red Oktoberfest
Power: Super intelligence, psychological manipulation.
Backstory: Born from german parents in 1960's russia, Hektor van Gogglestache was hated as a child. Studying psychology, he eventually became able to manipulate people's minds without them being aware of it. Taking up base in a forgotten nuclear missile silo, he eventually mastered cold fusion. However, all of the worlds governments, when aware of this knowledge, attempted to take him by force.
Motivation: Safety and power.

 

[ParanoidEngineer]

Name: Titus Maximus.
Powers: Extreme Strength, intelligence, and bodily implants.
Backstory: Whilst strolling the streets of his home town one night, gangmembers attacks young Edward Fox and cracked him a fatal blow with a crowbar. Miraculously he survived and walked dizzily into his house, looking for supplies to stop his death due to concussion and blood-loss. Inside he found his son's collection of Warhammer 40,000, and decided, with supreme logic, to harness his powerful mind and make himself a Space Marine. 95% sucessful, but left him power-hungry, deranged and thirsty for blood.
Motovation: Purging the unclean (everyone but his gang)

 

[JesterRaiin]

Villain ? Now that's a good question

I'd be called... the Jester !
I wouldn't care about anything with the exception of the Flying-Rodent-Man - my arch nemesis and protector of GothicVille. I'd come up with crude, but at the same time, multi-layered schemes with the single purpose - to beat the Flying-Rodent-Man. No special powers, my insanity would be sufficient.
I'd also wear some fancy dress and unique makeup. Maybe white face and green colored hair ? I'm not sure...

Oh, and the backstory... I'm not sure, i'd produce something on the fly when asked about it.

Hmmmmmmmmmm, i have a felling of deja-vu right now.

 

[Guffe]

I'm not sure about backstory/power.
Haven't been thinking too much about a scenario like that xD
But I guess something fast with a cool looking blade which is half of some power (me being the second part and only I can wield it).
Then of course my plan/meaning is to destroy my nemesis.

 

[AntiChri5]

Name: The Devourer.

Powers: Gain the knowledge, skill, strength, intelligence and ability to assume the physical form of anyone i kill by devouring their souls. Eventually, the ability to release those souls while maintaining control over them, so i can raise people (but only people i kill) as my minions, but lose their knowledge. If i kill a superhero or another super villain, i get their powers by devouring them.

Outfit: Varies. At first, simply black hoodie and a pair of jeans. Then old fashioned black armour (ate a blacksmith) and eventually a black suit of armour combining the best of modern technology and techniques with the best old techniques.

Weapons: Great big sword, guns.

Backstory: Ordinary guy, sudden unexplained powers.

Motivation: At first, learn and grow. Eventually deciding mankind will only know true peace after i take over, because i can gain the knowledge and perspective of every faction of humanity that exists by consuming it's leader.

 

[Andy of Comix Inc]

Powers: The ability to invoke meta at will

Backstory: After reading a thread on the internet asking what he'd do as a super-villain, he suddenly discovered he had this disturbing ability

 

[warrcry13]

Name: Phantasm.

Backstory: A man of another age. Made pacts with dark gods, for the power to avenge his family. In return for the power, he offered his soul to the gods. After his revenge he tried to back out of the deal. Using his new power and knowledge he found a way to keep his soul. By consuming other souls. Along with the souls he gains their memories, and parts of their personality and psyche.

Now he is fragmented being. Unable to remember what had happened, only that he must do this or something terrible will happen to him. He has moments of Lucidity, where he remembers what he has done, and what has been done to him. In this time he looks for a way to cure his broken mind. He also looks for new targets learning the stronger the person is in life the longer the soul satiates the gods.

Powers: Dark Magic. In times of Lucidness he studies his arts more.

Motivation: To keep His soul, and cure his fragmented mind.

Outfit: Old medieval villager clothes, with a travelers cloak. A tome strapped to his belt.

This is all off the top of my head. Sorry for any contradictions.

 

[Hylke Langhout]

Name: Hive Mind

Power: All the knowledge of the past, present and future

Backstory: One day I was working in a library when suddenly a temporal anomaly (plot device deus ex machina thing) opens up and all of the knowledge ever would be streamed into my head.

Costume: A normal suit

Scheme: Make millions in the stock market, become American citizen, run for president of America and win. Fix ALL the things. Then suddenly, world domination. I would rule the world the way I wanted and nobody could stop me. Pretty simple really. Also, invest millions into science so I can have my damn portal gun and a way of becoming immortal.

 

[Epicspoon]

My powers would be the command over the realm of Dreams itself!

My backstory would be that I am a twisted reflection of an entity within the Dreaming, a Nightmare to match the Dream in balance, intent on bringing a reign of Nightmares.

so basically you're Wizeman from NiGHTS.

 

[Epicspoon]

Powers: The ability to invoke meta at will

Backstory: After reading a thread on the internet asking what he'd do as a super-villain, he suddenly discovered he had this disturbing ability

You just raped my brain. good job.

 

[Alaster Angelo]

Name: Alaster Angelo

Power: Control over the four fundamental forces of reality (Gravity, magnetism, strong force, and weak force).

Costume:

Spoiler

Backstory: A superpowered genetic experiment that failed. Had to grow up with his superior brother all his life (who wasn't a failure, and better at everything) eventually decided to strike out on his own. Killed his brother's wife by accident.

Motivation: Become better than his brother at anything, really. Become an accepted success. The brother's revenge for the death of his wife is what would drive the story, so Alaster's motivation takes a back seat to his self defense.
