Jonah

Real Name: Jonah
Occupation: Exotic Dancer
Base of Operations: Formerly the village of Ruayl, formerly the township of Pennloap, now at large in the land of Varda
Place of Birth: Presumably the village of Ruayl, Varda
Known Relatives: None
Group Affiliation: None.
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
Height: 5’9″
Weight: 156 lbs.
Eyes: Green
Hair: Black
Penis: 10 inches, uncut
First Appearance: Zahn #1 (2008)
Current Appearances: Zahn #1, Striptease #1

History:

Jonah’s past is shrouded in mystery and all that is known of it is that he allegedly helms from Ruayl, the same village Zahn does.

Apparently, he and Zahn grew up together and as young adults fell in love.  They enjoyed a passionate affair until the day Zahn left their village to embark upon his Vision Quest.

Jonah agreed to meet with Zahn in the township of Pennloap once Zahn’s quest was complete.  Jonah made his way there ahead of time to establish himself and earn some money so that both he and Zahn could live there comfortably.

Jonah approached the owner of the Pennloap Inn and told the man he was looking for work.  He was immediately hired as an exotic dancer on the merit of his striking good looks, gorgeous physique and beautiful uncut cock. Jonah remained at the Inn, waiting for Zahn to arrive.

Zahn showed up several months later than planned, and with a severe case of amnesia.  Jonah was still there waiting for him, and upon realizing that his lover’s mind was a blank, the dancer took it upon himself to help him remember his past.

Jonah figured the best way to do this would be to travel back to their home village. Jonah hoped that familiar surroundings and faces might spark Zahn’s memory.  The two began an arduous journey back to their home town.  Upon their arrival they found it had been completely destroyed by mysterious beasts with glistening hides.

Jonah remains at Zahn’s side as they attempt to stop the evil threat that destroyed their village and looms over the great land of Varda.

Notes:

Physically, Jonah is nearly perfect.  In Zahn’s opinion, he is one of the most beautiful men he has ever seen.  Jonah knows all too well that he is physically appealing and uses this to get what he wants.

He appears to be loyal to Zahn, but there is no real proof that Jonah is who he says he is.  With Zahn still not completely  remembering his past , he can only hope that he has allied himself with a trustworthy companion.

Thus far Jonah appears to be the genuine article.  If he does have ulterior motives for befriending Zahn, they have yet to be revealed.

Real Name: Charles Shenton
Aliases: Charlie
Occupation: Criminal defense attorney
Base of Operations: Gateway City
Place of Birth: Winter’s Hill
Known Relatives: Adelle Shenton (mother), Richard Shenton (Father), Estelle Shenton (Sister)
Group Affiliation: None.
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
Height: 5’11″
Weight: 182 lbs.
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Black
Penis: 9 inches, uncut
First Appearance: Satisfaction Guaranteed #2 (2002)
Current Appearances: Satisfaction Guaranteed #2 & #4

History:

Charlie Shenton was born in the small town of Winter’s Hill, just outside of Gateway City.  A very bright kid, he had an aptitude for languages and mathematics and excelled in all his subjects in school.  His dream was to make his way to Gateway City and study law in the hopes of someday opening his own practice.

His dream soon came true and soon he was appointed to the case of one Kaissey Phineas who was charged with murder.  It was clear from the start that Kaissey was Charlie’s type, but despite the old adage “Innocent until proven guilty”, Charlie preferred to have proof of his client’s innocence.  He resisted his attraction to Kaissey in the interest of professionalism and properly defending his client.

Through hard work, Charlie cleared Kaissey’s name beyond the shadow of any doubt, and the charges were dropped.  No longer his client, Kaissey and Charlie became intimate and after about a year of courting one another, moved in together.

Charlie’s job meant he was not often at home, and Kaissey who had been unemployed for several months grew lonely and tired of depending on his boyfriend’s earnings.  He sought a career of his very own, and soon met the vile David Laburnum who was immediately taken with Kaissey’s physical beauty.  Kaissey was resistant of becoming a Callboy at first, but Laburnum was able to manipulate him into believing it would not interfere in his life with Charlie. And so Charlie continued practicing law, unaware of Kaissey’s extracurricular activities as a Callboy.

Kaissey never told Charlie that he was in fact a Callboy for the SG Corp.  Charlie grew suspicious of his boyfriend’s activities and started looking into Kaissey’s background, hoping to find some evidence to substantiate or dispel his suspicions.

Kaissey seemed to tell too many obvious lies and excuses in attempts to cover the truth. This led Charlie to become extremely untrusting of his lover.

Charlie decided to find out the truth about Kaissey once and for all.  He pulled many strings and cashed in many favors owed him to uncover Kaissey’s secret.

Upon finding out that Kaissey was in fact a Callboy, Charlie was outraged.  He decided to teach Kaissey a lesson about truth.  He hired the SG Corp. to set up an elaborate scenario in which Kaissey would be framed fro the murder of Matthew Foxfire.

Kaissey was arrested and Charlie confronted him in his prison cell.  Charlie explained that he was disappointed that Kaissey never trusted in their relationship enough to tell him the truth.  He also told him that their love for one another was strong enough to overcome anything.  The two men reconciled and with Charlie’s help, Kaissey left the SG Corp. for good.

Charlie is currently helping Kaissey get his professional life in order, and supporting his decision to become a private investigator.  The two plan on collaborating together on future legal cases.

Notes:

Charlie is a brilliant individual.  Though he is inherently distrusting of his clients and suspects their guilt, he is always willing to uncover the truth and to defend their rights.  Yet when it comes to his personal life his greatest flaw is his naivety!  Often he is blinded by love and wills himself to forgive and forget too easily.  This results in intense feelings of frustration and anger which he tries desperately to hide under a layer of cool confidence.

He loves Kaissey deeply and this is why he was so upset with all the secrecy and dishonesty in their relationship.  Charlie may be loving, but he is also vindictive and for this very reason, it would have been best if Kaissey had come clean before his partner was forced to uncover the truth for himself.  Hopefully, their relationship will indeed get past this indiscretion so that both men can move on for good.

Felicia

Real Name: Felicia. Last name, if any, is unknown.
Occupation: Adventurer, scientist.
Base of Operations: Currently, the Mina, Camili-Cat’s shuttle.
Place of Birth: The planet Siva
Known Relatives: Felicity (mother, deceased), King Orran (father, deceased)
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual.
Height: 5’11?
Weight: 110 lbs.
Eyes: Green
Hair: Copper
First Appearance: Affinity #1 (1992)
Current Appearances: Camili-Cat: Purrfection #1, Rapture #1 & #2, Striptease #1, Camili-Cat Felinoids #1, #2 and the soon to be released Camili-Cat Felinoids #3,

History:

Felicia was born on the planet Siva, one of the most beautiful worlds in the galaxy.  Her mother, Felicity was servant to the Sivan Royal Family.  The King, Orran looked favorably upon Felicity, and always treated her better than the other servants, but the Queen Matta distrusted her incredibly.  When it came out that Felicity was with child, the rumors began to circulate.  It was speculated that the King was the father of the child.  The rumors escalated to such a degree that civil war eventually broke out.  Felicity fled the war-torn city, and headed for the forest country, where she eventually gave birth to her daughter.  Felicity knew all too well that the King was indeed the father of sweet, little Felicia, but she also knew that to return to the city would mean death for her and her newborn daughter.  So Felicity raised Felicia in the peaceful forest province, undisturbed by the events happening in the city, teaching her all she knew of the world, and sciences.

When Felicia was seventeen, her mother was killed while hunting, but not before she could tell her daughter the truth about who her father really was.  Felicia buried her mother, and made her way to the city.  She wanted to find her father and tell him that her mother had died.  Sadly, when Felicia reached the city, she learned that her father and his family had been killed in the civil unrest.  Heartbroken, and feeling very much alone, Felicia decided to leave Siva forever.

A man named Malsolac, a former servant to King Orran, found Felicia shortly after she learned of her father’s death.  He told her that it had been his life’s duty to find her.  It seemed that the King had left her an inheritance, and it was now time to claim it.  Apparently, Orran knew that Felicity’s child had been his, and hoped to someday find her and make right what had gone so terribly wrong.  In a secret repository, hidden deep beneath the royal city, the King had left a veritable fortune for Felicia as well as a small royal cruiser, which would enable her to leave Siva.  Only her DNA could release the lock which sealed the repository. Malsolac led Felicia to this inheritance, where the young woman proceeded to unlock the doors.  Immediately after doing so, a band of 6 mercenaries surrounded her and the former servant. It appeared that Malsolac had used Felicia to gain access to the fortune her father had left her.  The Mercenaries wished to clain it as their own.

Growing up in the Forest Province and learning to hunt at an early age had honed Felicia’s senses and abilities to an incredible degree.  With blinding speed, Felicia managed to seize Malsolac’s pistol, and made her way through the star cruiser’s hatch, miraculously managing to evade all the laser fire. The mercenaries did not want her to escape.  Yet escape she did, upon igniting the cruiser’s reactor core, the rockets fired within the old repository, and incinerated the mercenaries.  Unfortunately, the fortune her father had left her had also been in the repository, and was also destroyed.

Felicia left Siva behind for good, and flew off into the expanse of space in search for a better life.  She managed to survive on sheer skill and instinct, until, a few years later she met Camili-Cat, and the two became fast friends.

They have remained the closest of friends since, always looking out for each other and watching each other’s back.  Though Felicia would be happy to have a romantic involvement with Cam, she keeps her emotions in line, completely respecting that he himself favors the company of men above that of women.

Felicia remains at Camili-Cat’s side.  She hopes that she can continue to keep her true feelings bottled up, but reales full well that someday, she may have to leave her friend rather than live with the burden of her unrequited love.

Powers and Paraphernalia:

Felicia has no particular powers per se.  However, being a Sivan female in her twenties, she does possess exceptional strength, speed and agility.  Her senses are also extremely acute.

Felicia is well versed in many forms of hand to hand combat.  Her knowledge of weaponry is also quite vast, and she can use most firearms with deadly accuracy.

Felicia possesses a brilliant mind, and is possibly one of the most gifted scientists you could ever encounter.  She put her time growing up in the Forest Province on Siva to good use, learning all she could from text books her mother had acquired for her.  The rest she learned from practice, being a natural at virtually all she puts her mind to.

Jon Dazy

Real Name: Unknown.  It is presumed that the name “Jon Dazy” is an alias.
Occupation: Former Adventurer, now outlaw.
Base of Operations: Formerly Darque Manor, formerly his forest of mutant blooms, now unknown, but rumored to be Gateway City.
Place of Birth: Unknown.
Known Relatives: None.
Group Affiliation: Former member of the Guardians of the Cube, currently none.
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual.
Height: 5’10?
Weight: 165 lbs.
Eyes: Lime Green
Hair: Green (presumed dyed)
Penis: 8 inches, cut
First Appearance: Guardians of the Cube volume 2,  #3 (1994)
Current Appearances: Guardians of the Cube #4 & #5, Satisfaction Guaranteed #2, #3 & #4, Rapture #2

History:
Little is known about Jon Dazy’s past or how he came by his powers, whether naturally or artificially.  About all that is known is that he and Ghostboy shared a romance before Ghostboy became a Guardian of the Cube.

In the Guardians’ darkest hour, Ghostboy called upon his former lover for help in rescuing his friends from the evil Robert MacGavin.  Jon Dazy agreed to help Ghostboy, but had his own motives for doing so.  Secretly he hoped he and Ghostboy could rekindle their relationship and pick up where they had left off.  However, upon joining the team, Jon Dazy promptly forgot about Ghostboy and fixed his attention on another Guardian – Diablo.

Of course being a heterosexual man, Diablo would not be interested in Jon of his own volition.  So Jon Dazy did the unthinkable and used his powers to effectively drug Diablo into compliance.  For months Jon Dazy had his way with Diablo, the latter never remembering the sexual escapades they shared.

Jon Dazy’s abuse of Diablo went unnoticed until he made the mistake of trying to involve his friend, Elias Shelby, a Callboy for the Satisfaction Guaranteed Corporation, in the crime.  Dazy hoped that Shelby would agree to join him in having his way with Diablo.  Shelby ultimately refused.  In that moment, Diablo suddenly remembered all that Jon Dazy had done to him.  He turned on Jon Dazy, intent on teaching him a lesson.

He gave what he felt Jon Dazy truly needed – the ass-fucking of his life.  Diablo was violent and anything but gentle.  When it was all over, Jon Dazy just laughed and told Diablo that he had actually enjoyed the punishment and believed that Diablo had enjoyed giving it to him.

Being the bigger man, Diablo left before punching Jon Dazy’s lights out.  He returned to the Guardians, explained what Jon had done to him for months and had Jon Dazy expelled from the team.

Shortly after his dismissal, Jon Dazy disappeared, and relocated just outside of Gateway City where he used his powers over plant life to erect a massive forest of blooms.  There he made his new home and remained until Incubus, Diablo’s son found him.  Incubus intended to kill Jon Dazy, enraged by what he had done to his father.

The two tangled but ultimately Incubus was unable to take Jon Dazy’s life.  He settled for burning his forest down to the ground.  Incubus left Jon Dazy with a stern warning never to show his face in Gateway City again.

Jon Dazy has not been seen or heard from since, but it is believed that he still lurks within the city limits, waiting fro the right time to make his next move – whatever that is.

Powers and Paraphernalia:

Jon Dazy possesses complete control over all forms of plant life.  He can cause plants to grow at an incredibly accelerated rate.  He can also imbue plant life with a primitive form of intelligence and direct them to do his bidding.

Jon Dazy was able to coerce Diablo into having sex with him by using a technique he calls “implantation”.  Jon Dazy can essentially introduce microscopic spores into his chosen victim.  The spores bloom and erupt from the urethra of the victim’s penis, causing no damage, but essentially act on the nervous system and brain like a very powerful narcotic.  This leaves the victim completely susceptible to Jon Dazy’s suggestions.

Once the implantation wears off, the victim remembers nothing – most of the time.  This technique worked on Diablo for several months, but it is believed that eventually, Diablo’s body developed a resistance to the process.  After that, the missing memories of what Jon Dazy did to him while under the implantation control resurfaced.

Jon Dazy’s powers have yet to be fully understood, and Dazy himself does not seem to know exactly everything he can do.  But despite his many flaws, Jon Dazy is tenacious and has always been determined to master his abilities, training himself further at every possible opportunity.

With complete mastery over his powers, Jon Dazy could be a formidable threat.

Sethan

Real Name: Sethan
Aliases: None
Occupation: Demon, soldier of Hell, former lover of Deimos
Base of Operations: Hell, occasionally Earth
Place of Birth: Not applicable
Known Relatives: Not applicable
Group Affiliation: Sethan serves Bob, the Dark Lord of Hell
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
Height: 6′1″
Weight: 234 lbs.
Eyes: Red
Hair: Silver
Penis: 12 inches, uncut
First Appearance: Deimos #0 (2004)
Current Appearances: Deimos #0, Deimos #1, Rapture #1, Rapture #3

History:
Sethan is one of the angels that followed Bob into Hell when the Prince of Lies was cast out of Heaven.  There, Sethan and the other fallen angels were transformed into demons: footsoldiers of evil, imbued with powers fuelled by the darkness of men’s souls.    Despite their powers, these demons cannot permanently cross over into Earth’s dimension.

Sethan is no exception, and in order to remain corporeal on Earth, he needs to find a human of tremendous power whose life he can sacrifice in a ritual of crossing over.

Refusing to believe that his former lover had betrayed Hell, Sethan approached Deimos to perform the ritual of crossing in his name.  This would have permitted Sethan to venture from Hell to Earth anytime he pleased.

Unfortunately for Sethan, Deimos was under Heaven’s orders to prevent the ritual, and to save the intended sacrifice from certain death.  Sethan’s plans were thwarted, and the demon faded from Earth’s plane of reality, and returned to Hell.  But Sethan was determined to cross over to Earth permanently.

Recently it appears that the sexy blue demon found a way to do just that.  Recent reports suggest that Sethan can now dwell in Earth’s plane of existence indefinitely.  How he has accomplished this task has yet to be revealed.

It also appears that Sethan has now joined the demoness Azagoth in a plot to destroy Bob once and for all.  Sethan has begun harboring feelings of resentment toward the Dark Lord who takes every opportunity to vent his frustrations on Sethan.

Sethan also appears to be struggling with his feelings for Deimos.  Deep down, he still loves him immensely.  Whether Sethan will act upon those feelings and seek Deimos out remains to be seen.

Powers and paraphernalia:
Like all demons, Sethan possesses incredible strength, agility, endurance and heightened senses.  He is a skilled hand-to-hand combatant and can wield most forms of weaponry with deadly accuracy.  Sethan’s body is covered in ornate tattoos which double as symbiotic demonoids that can leaps from his flesh and attack his foes.  These tattoos are razor sharp, shredding anything in their path.  However, Sethan is unable to unleash these demonoids unless he is at full strength: either in the dimension of Hell, or completely corporeal on Earth.

Jeanne Darque

Real Name: Jeanne Darque
Occupation: Heiress, former telemarketer, former primary wielder of the Cube, former leader of the Guardians of the Cube, now member of the Guardians of the Cube, adventurer.
Base of Operations: Gateway City, Darque Manor
Place of Birth: Tokyo, Japan
Known Relatives: Dr. Jeremiah Darque (father, deceased), Haruka Darque (mother, deceased)
Group Affiliation: Guardians of the Cube
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Lesbian
Height: 5′11″
Weight: inapplicable
Eyes: silver
Hair: black
First Appearance: Cube #1, volume 1 (1995)
Current Appearances: Guardians of the Cube #1, Guardians of the Cube #2, Guardians of the Cube #3, Guardians of the Cube #4, Guardians of the Cube #5, Naked Justice #1, Naked Justice #2, Rapture #3

History:
The daughter of rich and powerful psychiatrist, Dr. Jeremiah Darque, Jeanne spent her childhood in a strict and formal environment.  A quiet child, Jeanne was under tremendous pressure to be top in her classes, and to follow in her authoritarian father’s footsteps to become a psychiatrist.  But the repressed often rebel against their oppressors; Jeanne all but spit in her father’s face, shunning her family and heritage.

She fled to the city to pursue her life, where she was able to come out of her shell and discover herself for who she truly was, and not what she had been told she had to be.  She realized that she was attracted to women.  While working as a telemarketer, she met a young woman named Naomi, who shared similar interests, and they fell in love.

A call from her ailing father’s physician brought Jeanne racing back to the family manor.  Her father was dying of cancer, and Jeanne longed to make amends before it was too late.  On her way to Darque Manor, Jeanne’s car was stopped in its tracks by an extraterrestrial vessel.  Using a device called the Cube, the aliens called M’Waor transformed Jeanne into a super-powered being.  They charged her with the guardianship of the Cube, telling her that this device would someday save the Earth from complete destruction.  Reluctantly, Darque accepted, eventually seeking out and transforming Cube-chosen humans into the Guardians she leads today.

Unfortunately, Darque’s father died while she was en route to see him.  Despite their differences, her father bequeathed his entire fortune to his only daughter.

For several years, Darque led the guardians without a hint of humor, always with her mind of the ultimate goal.  Eventually the pressures of leadership and the burden of her immense responsibilities as primary wielder of the Cube began to take their toll.

In a desperate attempt to add levity to her life, Darque underwent a change of looks, and tried not to take leadership so seriously.  But this would prove a temporary remedy at best, and not at all sufficient to alleviate her considerable worries and fears.

The knowledge that the M’Waor had entrusted her with the Cube because she was the only human they could find in the vicinity of their vessel – not because she was remarkable in any way – became too much for her to handle.  This coupled with the apparent death of Ghostboy, a fellow Guardian that she loved like she would love a son, was more than she could deal with.  She decided to relinquish control of the Cube over to Numa, a fellow Guardian she felt was truly worthy of the responsibility.

Darque continues to serve as a Guardian of the Cube, more than content to no longer lead the outfit.  Since turning the Cube over to Numa, Darque has felt an immense pressure lifted from her shoulders.  She has a renewed joie de vivre that was denied her for far too long.

Powers and Paraphernalia:
Jeanne Darque’s body is a gateway to an uncharted dark dimension.  Hence, Darque can absorb light and matter into her body, depositing it into the dimension on the other side.  She possesses complete control over darkness and the energies that exist within it.  She can use darkness to create projectiles, force beams and even wings for flight.

She can travel via shadows, essentially using them as “doorways” through which she seems able to teleport.

Darque is a skilled hand-to-hand combatant and has recently begun to further develop her skills as such.

Zahn

Real Name: Zahn
Occupation: Barbarian, elemental
Base of Operations: mobile throughout the land of Varda
Place of Birth: The village Mazudun in the land of Varda
Known Relatives: Xom (brother) Elib (grandfather)
Group Affiliation: none
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
Height: 6′4″
Weight: 232 lbs.
Eyes: silver
Hair: salt and pepper
Penis: 10 inches, uncut
First Appearance: Zahn #1 (2008)
Current Appearances: Zahn #1, Striptease #1

History:
Soon after leaving his village to embark on a vision quest, the young Barbarian called Zahn is ambushed by the dreaded Harpy Men. He nearly perishes at their hands, but is rescued by a mysterious Genie. The Genie, also called the Blue Man heals the barbarian, and months later, Zahn awakens atop Mount Surazule with no memory of his past. He finds that he now possesses strange new powers.

After narrowly escaping death at the hands of the dreaded Almesti, Zahn journeyed to the township of Pennloap hoping for a meal and a good night’s sleep. He got much more than that. There het met Jonah, who had supposedly been Zahn’s lover in months passed, and who had allegedly been waiting for Zahn to rejoin him.

Naturally Zahn was intrigued, deciding that Jonah might be able to fill him in on his past and help him regain his memory. Realizing that his lover was genuinely amnesiac, Jonah agreed to help Zahn remember the relationship they had both enjoyed. After a passionate night of hot sex, Zahn and Jonah decided to journey back to their home village, figuring that a familiar setting might bring Zahn’s memory back.

Upon arriving at the village, Zahn and Jonah found nothing but death and destruction. Their home had been obliterated by strange beasts with glistening hides. Zahn swore then and there that he would avenge his people.

Now the fate of Varda lies in his hands and Zahn must seek out and destroy this great new evil that threatens to obliterate his beloved homeland.

Powers and Paraphernalia:
Zahn possess complete control over the forces of winter. He can summon great, violent winds to freeze his opponents dead in their tracks. Using those same winds, he can carry himself aloft, and even “fly”, employing the wind currents to propel himself. Since he is relatively new at this, the maximum speeds at which he can travel have yet to be ascertained.

Zahn can cause the temperature of the area he occupies to drop far below freezing. The maximum radius of this ability remains to be determined.

He can project shards of ice, boulders of snow or ice rain, all of which make remarkable weapons and can subdue most foes easily. He is also capable of creating thick ice shields which can deflect several projectiles and protect him from fire attacks.

Depending on the degree to which Zahn employs his powers, his physical form will begin to ice over. This is apparently not harmful to Zahn, and is simply a resulting side effect of using his powers.

Zahn is completely impervious to the cold and can withstand drastic drops in temperature and pressure. This is presumably essential to his ability to employ his powers.

Zahn carries a Barbarian’s spiked war club. This club is forged of metal and is highly durable. He also wears a pouch on his belt which carries currency and small food stuffs. Since he is impervious to cold, he chooses to wear very little in the way of clothing. Whether being nearly nude becomes a hindrance when in battle remains to be seen.

Allies and companions:
Zahn travels with Jonah, an exotic dancer who claims that he and Zahn were once lovers. Though Zahn trusts Jonah, he remains cautious as a small part of him cannot help but question Jonah’s story.

While in the township of Pennloap, Zahn met and adopted a small gray cat named Maymay. She accompanies him everywhere.

Soon after leaving Pennloap, Zahn and Jonah were ambushed by a Violer beast. It was then that Maymay revealed her true nature as a warrior woman living under a curse. Maymay lives out most of her life as a cat, but when danger is near, she can become human again, and leap into action.

She was cursed in this way when she put on a pair of magical warrior gauntlets. She can never remove these gauntlets, but on the upside, they serve as formidable weapons when she is called into battle.

Maymay is Zahn’s familiar and is completely loyal to him. She would lay down her life for him and protects and assists him in every way she can.

Base of Operations: Gateway city, the One Eyed Snake Nightclub and Darque Manor.
Place of Birth: New York, NY
Known Relatives: Louisa Durand (mother) and Emil Durand (father)
Group Affiliation: The Guardians of the Cube
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
Height: 6′2″
Weight: 203 lbs.
Eyes: brown, though they appear blue, because of the special contact lenses he wears.

Penis: 11 inches, cut
First Appearance: Naked Justice #2 (2004)
Current Appearances: Naked Justice #2, Rapture #1, Rapture #2, Rapture #3, Striptease #1

History:
Born to Louisa Durrand, a private school teacher, and Emil Durrand, a well-respected scientist and engineer, Byron Durand was a very quiet child, who preferred to keep to himself and read comics rather than interact with the other children at his school. Considered the school geek, he was bullied from a young age by the older kids, and because of his slight build, they found it easy to push him around. But despite the hardships he endured, Byron remained a very optimistic and happy child, taking refuge from the adversity in the pages of his favorite comic books.

His mother and father used to try and encourage him to be more outgoing, but Byron had no interest in being friends with the kids who treated him so poorly. He preferred to nourish his imagination instead.

One fateful afternoon when he was 15 years old, he and his mother were out walking in New York, when Byron caught a glimpse of “the Goddess”. To this day, his parents still don’t know to who he was referring to, but Byron insists that that moment was the defining instant of his life. He saw his heroine fly gracefully across the bright, blue sky, her long silver hair and cloak flowing in the cool breeze, and in that instant, his life would be changed forever.

He had been bullied and ridiculed for too long, and he would stand for it no longer. Byron began to exercise and take care of his body. He joined the school track team and began to lift weights, until he had become a full-fledged athlete. He took lessons in the martial arts, and became well versed in many forms of combat.

Seeing “the Goddess” made him realize that he could be more than the boy that everybody pushed around, and that in fact, he could become someone that people looked up to and respected. He decided then and there that he would fulfill his dream of becoming a super hero.

At 19 Byron decided that he was now ready for adventure. By then he was an extremely handsome young man, toned and muscled to perfection. His body was as powerful a fighting machine as it was beautiful. Still, Byron needed a “gimmick”… something that set him apart and gave him his own identity as a super hero. That is when he decided to turn to his father.

Emil Durand’s research centered around the creation of new equipment for NASA’s astronauts. Byron let his father in on his dream of becoming one of the world’s heroes, despite his fear that his father might not understand. To his surprise, Emil embraced the idea, stating that it was so wonderful to see Byron come out of his shell and fulfill his great potential. Emil gave his son several prototypes, which included a jet pack and helmet, as well as a plethora of ray guns and blaster pistols.

Needing only a name to complete his new identity, Byron adopted the alias “Space Cadet”. From that point on, he would try and earn himself a reputation as one of the world’s greatest heroes.

Space Cadet learned the hard way that being a hero was no easy task. On his first “adventure”, he was sorely rendered unconscious by the villainous Prick and Mamma Ries as they robbed one of New York’s finest jewelry stores. To teach him a lesson for trying to thwart their plans, Momma Ries and The Prick stripped Space Cadet nude, and tied him up in one of the city’s less favorable alleys, where he was milked and molested by thugs and low-lives for 2 days and nights. To his relief, the police eventually came to his rescue. Space Cadet had been humiliated, but he had not been defeated.

Still he had lost the equipment his father had given him, and getting it replaced was going to be costly. So he decided to move to Gateway City where he would earn money for his heroics. He became a body-guard for hire.

His most high-profile client was to be the infamous Tobey Tubesteak. While protecting Tobey from the evil Jack the Stripper, Space Cadet encountered Naked Justice and Ghostboy. The three heroes helped one another out and defeated Jack the Stripper, sending him straight to the Fraserview Mental Health Hospital.

Since then, Space Cadet has befriended Naked Justice and Ghostboy, and has offered his help to them on many occasions. Through his work as a body guard, he managed to earn enough money to pay for his replacement equipment.

Meanwhile, Space Cadet has received an invitation to join the Guardians of the Cube from Jeanne Darque. For him, this is the perfect way to prove himself as one of Gateway City’s great defenders. His father continues to watch over his son, and create more gadgets and gizmos for him, fully believing in his Byron’s vast potential to be a great hero.

Powers and Paraphernalia:
Space Cadet possesses no superhuman powers or skills.

All of Space Cadet’s gadgetry and equipment comes from his father. Emil Durand is a brilliant scientist who has constructed extremely advanced weaponry for his son.

Space Cadet carries laser pistols, a force field emitter and his rocket pack permits him to fly at speeds exceeding 100 MPH. When completely zipped up, his skin tight, form fitting costume, constructed of unstable molecules, serves to insulate him for extreme environmental conditions, thus allowing him to travel in space and even underwater. His costume regulates all body functions and shields him from extreme pressure, heat or cold.

His helmet permits him to breathe in such conditions as well, and can recycle his oxygen indefinitely.

The one draw-back to his costume is that it can be easily torn, something his father continues to try and change.

As an athlete, Space Cadet is well versed in numerous forms of hand to hand combat and martial arts. He is a formidable opponent who possess higher than average strength and endurance for a human male of his age, height, weight and build.

Space Cadet wears special contact lenses which allow him to see with infrared, and x-ray vision, again, compliments of his father. They also increase his visual acuity and filter out unwanted radiation on all wavelength spectrums. These contacts have a blue hue to them, thus making it appear that Byron has blue eyes. Coupled with his bleach-blond hair, they give him a rather striking look.

History:
Bruno Ragetti lived a happy life with his wife Beverly and their young son, Eric. The couple owned an apartment in the city, and each held good, solid jobs. But Bruno wanted more out of life, and desperately wanted to be his own boss. Against Beverly’s wishes, Bruno quit his job and purchased a nightclub. Business was poor and the bank was threatening to foreclose when Bruno, desperate to keep the One Eyed Snake, decided he needed a gimmick. He began to headline at the club as a stripper, putting on elaborate shows, which soon became the talk of the town. Business boomed, but at a cost: Beverly left Bruno and took their young son with her.

Shortly thereafter, Bruno received a visit from the mysterious Jeanne Darque. She told the skeptical Bruno that he had been chosen to receive the Gift of Power. Bruno soon realized she spoke the truth when the Cube transformed him into Diablo as he performed on stage.

During his initial service as a Guardian of the Cube, Diablo met officier Pascale DiMorne, an ally of the Guardians. The two of them fell in love and dated throughout Diablo’s career as an adventurer.

Diablo served as Darque’s right hand man for several years, until a severe altercation between him and fellow Guardian, Jon Dazy led him to resign his powers as Diablo. As an unexpected side effect of this, his powers were passed along to his now 18 year old son, Eric. Eric Ragetti became Incubus, and assumed his father’s place as a Guardian of the Cube.

Now human again, Bruno Ragetti was free to lead a normal life. He and Pascale were wed in a quiet ceremony, and months later, Pascale announced that she was pregnant.

Bruno had no plans to ever become Diablo again, but in recently, the Guardians of the Cube have fallen on difficult times, and Numa, newly appointed leader of the Guardians, approached Bruno to see if he would consider resuming his powers and identity as Diablo. Given the Guardian’s current circumstances, Bruno accepted and Numa used the Cube to transform him into Diablo anew.

This did not affect Incubus’ powers, and as a result, father and son now have very similar abilities. It is not yet certain if their powers differ in any way.

Diablo has returned to the Guardians of the Cube but hopes he can manage to keep his personal life and family separate from his adventures as a super hero.

Powers and Paraphernalia:
As Diablo, Bruno possesses incredible physical strength, as well as heightened senses, speed and agility. He is able to breathe flame that he can direct at his foes.

When Bruno Ragetti was first transformed into the crimson-skinned Diablo, he was unable to revert to his human form. In later years however, Bruno learned better control over his powers, and was able to manipulate his physical form. He was able to revert to his human form at will, and as Diablo he was also capable of growing wings that permitted him to fly at up to moderate speeds.

Diablo possesses the ability to literally siphon the evil from other beings, and store it within his own person. However, he was never truly able to master this ability, and the results of using this power can be quite unpredictable. Depending on the amount of evil he absorbs, he can become adversely affected by it. The evil can transform Diablo into a monstrous creature, capable of great destruction. Because of this, Diablo prefers not to call upon this power very often.

History:
While on a vacation in the deserts of Egypt, a young and adventurous Felix Himner, seeking a break from his harsh and disapproving parents, found himself in the presence of the ancient Pharaoh, King Cock-A-Tut. The Pharaoh endowed Felix with tremendous, ancient power, thus forever transforming him in to the incredibly hung Naked Justice. It is not known why Felix was chosen to receive this power, but one thing is certain, since his transformation, Naked Justice has taken a serious bite out of crime in Gateway City.

Recently arrested for indecent exposure, Naked Justice was thrown into prison. Jeanne Darque, leader of the Guardians of the Cube, busted him out of jail in order to make him a rather unique offer: become a member of the Guardians of the Cube.

Since joining the group, Naked Justice has enjoyed Jeanne Darque’s hospitality, and taken residence in her Manor, the home base of the Guardians. He has also had his name cleared of all charges by officer Pascale Dimorne, an ally of the Guardians.

It was clear from the moment that Naked Justice and Ghostboy met that they were very attracted to one another. The two men eventually became lovers, but their relationship was put on hold when Ghostboy’s body was usurped by the villain called Daddy Longlegs, leaving the heroes’ soul to wander the astral plane.

Naked Justice and the other Guardians of the Cube searched for their teammate for several months, but eventually gave Ghostboy up for dead. A shattered NJ has attempted to move on from the loss, but would not have to do so for long, for Ghostboy’s spirit returned in the body of a young woman, determined to get his male body back from the villain who stole it.

Try as he might, Naked Justice has not been able to be intimate with his lover while he inhabits the body of a woman. This has caused a severe rift between them, and though Ghostboy insists he can understand NJ’s point of view, he secretly resents him for not providing much needed comfort and reassurance.

Naked Justice has recently found his own comfort in the arms of fellow Guardian of the Cube, Space Cadet. Though neither Naked Justice or Ghostboy have ended their romance, whether it endures through this rough patch remains to be seen.

Powers and Paraphernalia:
Naked Justice possesses heightened senses, agility, strength, endurance and stamina. He is imbued with Egyptian magicks, and this grants him a heightened metabolism that is impervious to most forms of poison and toxins. But perhaps the strangest aspect of his powers is that he can project bolts of lightning from his erect penis!

In recent times, Naked Justice has also learned that he can project his powers through other parts of his body; nipples, hands, feet etc…

Essentially Naked Justice is immortal. Since inheriting his powers from King Cock-A-Tut, he has not aged a single day. It is believed that so long as he has his powers, he will remain forever physically 25 years of age, the age at which he inherited his abilities.

Because his powers are deeply rooted in the ancient magicks of Egypt, the complete limits of his abilities are to date unknown.

Notes:
Naked Justice has a good heart, but is shallow and self-absorbed, and some might say, he has a bit of an overactive sex drive. His relationship with fellow Guardian Ghostboy has motivated some interesting changes in Naked Justice. For the first time in a long while, he actually seems to genuinely care for someone other than himself.
