Ra's origin story

Ra is just that guy you see on the beach all the time. He surfs, skateboards and snowboards depending on the weather. Sport is his life being part of the school track team, football team, basketball team it's amazing that he finds time to actually have a social life and get his school work done on time.

Ra has always been impulsive and that's often how he wins most things. Thinking with his feet not his mind. And has never given a second thought when asked to go into town with a few friends always accepting the offer regardless. As long as it fit in his schedule. One day it was a trip to the movies. Yeah it was a late viewing and his parents wouldn’t really approve seeing as he had football first thing the next morning. But he went anyway, the movie was action packed with plenty of fight scenes and drama and a good heavy plot.

Afterwards he was on his way home, walking up the main street as it was the safest when you were alone. It wasn't long before he heard a small crowd bashing each other way up the street. Before he could even turn around he was in the middle of it. Pushed and punched his body crumpled as he failed to get out from the brawling group. Next he was trampled and dragged off the street. Ra caught a glimpse of rather built up men who had thrown him into the back of a truck. His consciousness barely keeping in touch with what was going on around him. He felt the moist fog on his tanned skin as it shook him awake.

He was in a unfamiliar environment some laboratory that was based high in the mountains. Inhaling the fog his thoughts became even more and more hazy before his eyes rolled back. They reported him missing on police records. The scientists of the secret lab reported him deceased as their gas version of Khromerse had effected him like the others. The effects dire all the same, they took some genetic material of Ra just so they can use it in the future. It was emotionally draining for Ra to even be held captive. As he was cadged, and often saw other subjects die.

They buried Ra in a empty Khromerse deposit with other dead subjects. Little did they know Ra was really in a state of suspended animation. He was still living in his mind but his body didn't show any life signs. A year had passed and the deposit was almost pure Khromerse again. The bodies had been broken down into it's former plasma state. Except Ra's body, Ra hadn't changed. He was still thirteen years of age the Khromerse had preserved him inside and out. Deep in the Gel Ra awoke able to breathe in the substance. At first Ra freaked out, he felt the need to be near someone as he headed into the city at first he found it had changed. He had changed the air had changed. A billboard indicated him the date.

Thinking he'd be a burden on those who are alive, Ra disappeared deep into the Earth no trail of his where abouts were known until he emerged from a man hole in the middle of Copell and ran into a apartment building only to emerge with the dead body of Arc Gloris. Ra then returned underground with the body. Ra wanted to act as a angel of death returning bodies to their home. “You are made of dust and return to dust you shall.”

So Ra's family/friends would still be around right? Does he ever try to track them down? Would he be recognized by others in Copell because of this?
Would he be emotionally damaged in some way because of this year lapse, or has he got some kind of amnesia/repressed memories?
Where did he get the idea of being the angel of death from? Is it some past story he used to listen to, or is he religious in some way, or was it an idea that came into his head after he escaped?
He seems like a very interesting hero. Mix of beauty and mystery, very nice.

That is all too be revealed as I think about it. I think it would of been emotionally draining for Ra to even be held captive. As he was cadged and often saw other subjects die. His suspended state and reawakening may of influenced him to think this was his doing. And he would want to avoid friends, maybe appearing as a ghost to them if he feels he needs to desperately see them.

Ra likes to move with the fog as he did the night he went missing.

EDIT: Thank you for asking good questions I like them so I can further expand my characters. This feed back is good and I want to be able to answer most things thrown at me.

[xorengenox]

Cool, cool. xD Always good to have characters expanded on~

[Lowkey (Ithy)]

He ever going to go looking for his family? His friends? Strikes me as the first thing a scared, confused young man would do?

Would love more detail on the experiment, you kind've brushed over it a little. You've got faceless evil scientists; did they have anything to do with the fight, or was that just convenient? What are their motives? What are they going to think when they find out he's still alive, and is his power because of them or just a natural mutation brought out by the chemical exposure?

I like the idea of a young, easily manipulated hero - if you're keen, one of my villains could try to manipulate him? It could be a dramatic plot point if he does something for said villain and then realises what he's done and what it means.

[hyolee123]

I'd like to link a story with a villain of yours. Sounds cool, dramatic ect~

At the moment I have no clue about any evil scientists hence why I posted in your villain thread ; As I should probably add to the first post. Ra thinks he's dead, sure he still does humanly things but he feels he is a burden on his family and his friends, hence avoiding them.

With the fight, it was probably a small gang fight and they left Ra on the side of the road I'd imagine. Convenient for the scientists. Paid workers of the scientists probably went to go pick up KO'd people/bums on the street and Ra just happened to be one of them. Their motives are still unclear even to me. A plot in development (I'd appreciate any help for those who are reading this)

Chemical exposure is the scientists doing. I guess it would be both, gradual exposure by the scientists and constant tests would of run him down and the chemical has since filled his body.

I love his backstory. I agree with Lowkey though, I think he should go looking after family/friends. but that's just me. He seems like a really sweet and layed back guy <3
