Character Biography
        Scott Steiner’s in-game age is 29. He lives in the city a on the east coast. Scott is very smart and works for DNA Corp as a biological engineer. For a while now he has been studying different ways to enhance human performance and muscle growth as well as pushing the limitations of the human body and senses. Scott was born in the suburbs and for the most part lived a relatively normal childhood. Around the age of 16 tragedies struck Scott when he at the bank with his mother and a robbery occurred. The robbers took hostages and when the police refused to meet the demands of the robbers his mother was shot and killed to scare the police into submitting to their demands. Swat along with highly trained snipers were able to infiltrate the bank and the robbers were arrested.  The robber who killed Scott’s mother was killed sometime after in a confrontation between inmates while in prison. It was shortly after that incident that Scott decided that he wanted to fight crime and keep the innocent safe in remembrance of his mother and the morals she instilled in him. It was then that Scott Steiner became the Crimson Hammer. At first however seeing how Crimson didn’t actually have any powers he started small stalking potential muggers and fighting against bullies. Some of those fights didn’t go so well for Crimson and he was defeated at times. So he needed an edge.  He needed something to guarantee his triumph over the forces of evil. Luckily, for Crimson his day job gave him unlimited resources and his knowledge of biological engineering allowed him to create and test things that would enhance himself. After some time Scott was able to create a serum that he felt would enhance both his physical abilities and senses. So he took it and it worked….better than expected. He became stronger, faster, sharper and had heightened senses. To keep his identity a secret and to prevent any misuse of his super serum he destroyed all of his research. A short time after Crimson had reduced crime by more than half and was known throughout the town as a hero. Certain villains wanted revenge against Crimson and that hate spawned enemies. One of those enemies swore his life to destroying Crimsons perfect life and all that hate led to where our in-game story begins.








Character Biography 2
        Lisa Rose’s in-game age is 26.She is a white female with an athletic build and a special agent who spends her time on various secret missions for a secret organization. Most of her life and motives are shrouded in mystery. Lisa was born in a small town in Colorado. Both of her parents were also government agents and spent most of their time away. Lisa was practically raised by her aunt Jenn. Growing up she was made to believe that her parents were just normal business people that had to travel for business. It wasn’t until around the age of 16 that life changed drastically for Lisa.  She was expecting her parents to come back from their lasted trip but they never actually made it home. Shortly after, Aunt Jenn revealed to Lisa her parents true life and that her parents had died on their latest mission. The next day Lisa was contacted by an agent from the corporation her parents worked for and was recruited into the business. Lisa vowed to avenge her parents and find out who was responsible for their deaths. The only thing that is known about the business Lisa works for is that they go by the name C.R.O.S.S but even this has been left to speculation.  While working for C.R.O.S.S Lisa has become a master of espionage and several martial arts. Her latest mission has her working with and following our hero Crimson Hammer in his endeavors to restore peace to his city. Unfortunately, due to her disappearance from the general public after the age of 16 not much is known about Lisa. 10 years have passed since then but she seems to have a personal agenda with the currents events.

Art Style and Considerations
               As for as art style goes I while be making my characters inspired by the ever popular Marvel and DC comic book super heroes. Crimson Hammer will have the typical heroic build.  He will be tall around 6 feet with a muscular physique. He will also have a superhero costume. This will consist of a mask to protect his identity and the typical tight costume with some sort of insignia on his chest that will give a clue to what he is or calls himself.  He will also have some type of utility belt that will hold gun clips or various types of weaponry that aid him in battle. His costume also has gloves that cover his hands. The reasoning for this is that in our current age finger printing is widely used to identify people and it vital that Crimson keep his identity secret. He also will have boots that are very similar to the kind that the military uses. The obvious reason for this is that it protects the feet the best and a boot print on the face of a criminal s is always a plus. As a general overview Crimson’s costume will pretty much cover his entire body only really revealing his nose, eyes, ears and mouth. The reason for this is that Crimson does not want to hinder his superhuman senses by covering them up and it is impossible to get an accurate identification of a person based on these exposed areas. So the only real accessories to Crimson’s costume are his utility belt. That’s about all there is to Crimsons art style and what he will pretty much look like. To really know what he will look like refer to the concepts that have been produced for Crimson Hammer.

Art Style and Considerations part 2
        Agent Rose will have a leaner less muscular build for two reasons. One is that she is not a superhero since she doesn’t have any powers. The second reason is because females typically have less muscular builds then men since they produce far less testosterone. She is a female around 5’10” and a red head. Her outfit will consist of a leather jacket, blue jeans and boots. Her black boots will come almost knee high and strapped to each thigh will be a pistol. The straps that holster these guns will wrap around each leg mid-thigh. She usually will wear her jean jacket zipped up only exposing about 6 inches from the top which means that the zipper will hang mid breast. Her hair is of medium length going past her shoulders by around 4 inches. She will be in great physique which would be expected from an agent that is trained for combat. Her hair is wavy and hangs freely. If I had to pick someone who she most resembles it would be Jean Grey from X-MEN. Her features and even hair color are similar to this popular hero. Agent Rose is a character that I feel should have an outfit that is lightweight and simple. Since she is a martial artist it is best that she doesn’t carry excessive clothing or gear. By keeping her outfit simple it will allow her to be more agile and accurate during combat. The only equipment I feel that would fit her is the two pistols that are strapped to each leg.  I find that the artistic styles from DC and Marvel greatly compliment the realism and heroic style that I wish to achieve with my characters.
