You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.
Introduction

xxxxxSoft-spoken and mild-mannered, Bruce Banner fits many a stereotype of the shy genius. Those who know him better tend to class him more as a quietly mad scientist.

History

xxxxxBruce rarely speaks of his early life, though the sufficiently nosy can discover with some modicum of research the lurid tale of how his father murdered his mother in front of him when he was only five years old. All he will typically volunteer about the years following that is that his Aunt Susan loved him and cared for him as well as any parent, and that he wanted for nothing. Smart, small of stature, and socially withdrawn, young Bruce suffered a great deal of bullying up through adolescence. He went on to attend CalTech, receiving Ph.Ds in biochemistry and particle physics, and later an M.D. from Stanford.

xxxxxHis adult life consisted of periods of brilliant research and publication interspersed with unexplained disappearances. Perhaps motivated by the loss of his beloved aunt to cancer, his initial focus was in oncology, and he contributed to the development of several cutting-edge therapies. Through this, he gained an interest in transhumanism, and has remained one of the least speculative and most hands-on researchers in that field. He met and (somehow) befriended Tony Stark at a futurist expo, and even collaborated with the famous industrialist for a time to create a type of advanced radiation shielding.

xxxxxHis most recent and most promising ambition, dubbed Project Ouroboros by himself and his two fellow researchers, aimed to improve the human body's ability to recover from devastating chemotherapy. Shortly after they found a promising formula, a string of glaring failures ended the project's funding. Unwilling to abandon his work when he believed the goal so near, Banner forged on alone in his home lab. Shortly after subjecting himself to the experimental treatment, however, he blacked out and woke to find his work--along with much of his apartment--destroyed. Evicted, destitute, and despondent, he set out for New York City.

Powers

xxxxxBruce Banner himself has no superhuman capabilities, but extreme stress or excitement can trigger the emergence of the decidedly superhuman Hulk. Neither Banner nor the Hulk can control this transformation (which does not occur predictably or consistently), and neither retains memories of what happened to the other.

Skills

xxxxxSuperbly intelligent and highly educated, his greatest strength lies in biochemical research and development. He utilizes both dogged methodical testing and daring leaps of insight in his work, and peers regard him as a rogue genius sadly given to quixotic pursuits and periods of mysterious absence. He does not possess a very good grasp of practical everyday skills, however, and has spent the majority of his adult life underemployed and impoverished. In addition to his native English, he speaks French (with a strong Quebecois accent), Russian, and Mandarin Chinese.

Friends

Foes

  • Coming soon.

And everything in between

Trivia
  • He's a pretty decent tap dancer.
  • Also, a vegan.
  • He sings baritone.
