Character here, made a summary of the backstory for those who don't want to read the full one. :)

Spoiler:

LordPivot



Alias: LordPivot
Name: Stephen Flax
Age: 129, born 1886, appears 28.
Height: 6 foot, 2 inches


Backstory
-Stephen was born to the son of an Irish explorer in the year 1886. He accompanied his father from the age of 12 on many of his adventures. They travelled far and wide, to the middle east, Arctic, and South America. In the year of 1901 at the age of 15, him and his father travelled deep inland South America. His father was eager to find a mythical dark 'force' that lay in cased in a hidden temple. They fought many natives to reach it, but soon found it. His father, desperately wanting it, for reasons more than just for study, pried open the chest that it was contained in,
-he was killed by the darkness.
-It disintegrated him on the spot.
-Instead, the darkness seen Stephen, and noticed how innocent and true the boy was, and corrupted him with itself. The temple shook, and forest half a kilometer in radius was blackened and infected immediately, and LordPivot emerged from the temple. He escaped South America from frightened and fearful settlers that attacked him and fled to the Canadian Rockies, where he learnt to develop his powers and lived off the wildlife native there.

-The year 1914 came and with it the Great War. LordPivot, now 28, was beginning to notice that he wasn't ageing anymore. He travelled to Britain to seek advice on his 'gifts' and was soon captured by the military and used as a weapon against the Central Powers. He was sent to fight ahead of the trenches and carve paths through enemy lines to secure locations. During the war he made few friends, but those he did make he kept close.

-After the war he left France for Asia, and learnt various Martial Arts. Though, because of impatience he couldn't keep up his training. The entire time he kept his abilities a secret from the trainers. Except for one time, one of the High Masters approached him about the matter, and offered to make him a cape, in return for the destruction of a tribe that has bothered his people. He done so, his mind becoming ever so more in termoil with all of the lives he was killing. The High Master had the cape forged of a flexible silk, stronger than steel, lighter than armour that the darkness would wrap itself around.

-LordPivot lived in isolation for the following 18 years from 1924 until 1940 in Norway. When the second world war seen the Axis forces invade the country. LordPivot grew fond of the people and fought to protect them, but was ultimately forced from the country when some of the people had thought it was him that caused the Axis to come to them. He was stopped on his way to Sweden by Allied naval forces, but laid waste to the squadron after they attempted to detain him and continued to Sweden to hide until 1944, where after being convinced by a source, joined the allied advance into Europe after the D-day landings of June 6th. He took part in the front lines of the Battle of the Bulge.

-During the Cold War, LordPivot had been ever more increasing his powers. Little did he know, he was being searched for by a secret government group known as the 'Hunters'. Whilst in the Middle East in the year 1957 he was nearly captured by the group but managed to escape their grasp. He fled to Western Europe and frequently encountered more members of the Hunters. He did not know what their purpose was so he begun to search for their motives for wanting him.

-LordPivot continued to develop his abilities on his own, the isolation getting to his head, and developed minor mental dissorders. He begun to hallucinate dark creatures. He noticed that his eyes were beginning to tint red, and glow slightly. He was becoming slightly worried with what laid inside him. He travelled to many ancient buildings and searched all over the globe for the cure to his illness. The darkness inside him was not intent of being quelled, so it begun to fight LordPivot's mind. Over the years, LordPivot continued to search for a cure, well into the 21st century, but with each passing day the darkness fought his personality.

LordPivot discovered a community in the 2013 known as Darkdemon, he was welcomed here by many as they had a similar past to him. Knowing he was still being chased by the Hunters he thought it best to stay with the members of DD. All of the time his mental state deteriorated.

-It was now a race to find a cure before it took him over completely...

Summary:
-LordPivot was born in 1886. He became infected with a 'darkness' in a temple of South America in 1901. He hid in the Canadian Rockies, and then fought in WW1 on the side of the Entente.
-He then travelled to Asia where he learnt various forms of Martial Arts (only partially) until a cape was constructed for him by a mentor.
-He lived in Norway by the time Axis forces invaded and was forced to leave by the natives. He took refuge in Sweden for the rest of the war.
-Begins to be hunted by a secret government organisation called the 'Hunters'.
-He continued to develop his abilities during the Cold War and it started to affect his health. He decided he needed to find a cure.
-Joined an organisation called Darkdemon in 2013.
-And so he spent from then to the present day searching for the cure before the darkness takes him over completely.

Special Abilities:
-Manipulates darkness, primarily his cape, but can change and warp shadows etc.

Fighting style
-Uses his powers to fight and normally doesn't use hand-hand. His hand-hand abilities are moderate but not reliable.
-He fights with a certain confidence that many other may not have. He seems certain in his abilities.


Strengths
-Comfortable and powerful in the darkness.
-Intelligent and very clever.

Weaknesses
-Playful with his foes. Toys with them and unknowingly allows them to learn his attack patterns and so forth.
- Vulnerable in the light, he can only use his hand-hand combat in the light.

Stats
Strength: 6
Agility: 6
Defense: 7
Intelligence: 9
Endurance: 5

[Finom]

Might as well be this way for me.. It's be a while before I can match anybody's current animating skills here >.>

[Anton]

So far, only Gary hasn't presented his character yet.

You may look for a team name too.

[Lord]

So far, only Gary hasn't presented his character yet.

He sent me a message a couple of days ago, he'll have it all done and posted for Sunday. ;)

[Franklin]

I don't think you completely went over what we are actually animating. Am I animating my character vs Anton's character, then when I give it to Devildog he animates his vs tuna's?

[Anton]

No.

What we will be doing is one file per team.
Each team has to put their character against the opponent of your choice (from the other team, obviously).
You can even put 2 characters against 1, or 1 v 2, but at least you should shows many of your character's abilities.

You can decide with your team what will happen next in the file (use skype or whatever), who can take the file, adding frames, editing stuff, etc...

And the final result is your team beating up the other team.


But first, we'll need to have all characters available for download, so all the stickmen are the same, and then we can all begin.
