Energy attacks, energy weapons, magic, sustained assault from heavy firearms, and battering from heavy objects or powerful individuals will take a notable toll on his suit.

League Questionnaire

The following questions are used to determine your interest in our League.


1. Why are you interested in becoming a part of The Hoods, and what do you feel The Hoods stand for?

For me The Hoods has always stood as a standard for good roleplay in the community. With minute exception I have always enjoyed the people who have been members both icly and oocly and for me it is my "home" on DCUO. From an rp perspective The Hoods represents an opportunity for up and coming villains to make a name for themselves and a bit of profit with the possibility of some support in a pinch.


2. How will you personally contribute to the betterment of our organization?

I will try to help people both icly and oocly whether it be planning rp, actively rping, doing content, acquiring styles, help with character options icly or oocly, and I endeavor to literally do anything and everything I can to better The Hoods both icly and oocly. I am not very gifted in initiating roleplay or running content, but I am usually more than happy to join in roleplay if I have a character appropriate for it or to do content so long as I have characters eligible to help with it.

3. Did you read our "About Us" and "Home Base" Information Pages? (If not, please do so.)

Yes.




Character Questionnaire

The following questions will give us a better understanding of how you view your character and help us to determine if he/she will be a good addition to our team.


1. In your opinion, what makes your character Original and Iconic, what makes them stand out amongst his/her fellow villains?

Due to his abilities and condition Jack has a connection with Mr. Freeze, moreso out of necessity than an amiable relationship, which is an archvillian I have not seen someone attach a character to in the community yet. Beyond that he is a villain of necessity, not so much outright choice. Jack actually dislikes crime and that presents a moral issue for him personally. On the other hand, Jack views, or will view rather, The Hoods as family the more he gets to know the members. I think this may put him at odds with members, icly only, and present more varied interaction while in the thick of things than someone who bandwagons and goes with the flow on everything.


2. How dedicated are you to this character and his/her concept? Will he/she be your main character?

I am really not sure who my main character will be at the moment. As I stated before I am not that good at initiating roleplay, so for me it is more a matter of deciding which character is a good fit for what is happening as opposed to trying to fit a certain character into each and every roleplay session.


3. Why did your character decide to become a villain?

Jack is a villain because he needs the technology that is keeping him alive. It is the lesser of two evils for him in that he has no other means to maintain his existence and prolong his life.

Character Bio

In 1000 words or less, please provide a concise bio about your character. This bio should include the origin of your character detailing how he acquired his/her abilities, his/her rise to fame in the villain community, and if applicable his/her introduction to The Hoods.

Jack Eisbrecher had always been good with his hands both in and out of the ring. Growing up on Rocky movies and the like had him from a young age interested in testing his own mettle against his peers. Ever an amateur at best Jack knew that despite his love for the sport of boxing that it was not what he would do with his life. He could, however, use it to get him there. Jack's second love Winter, a time he looked forward to all year long. He enjoyed the chill in the air, the frost that lingered before the sun rose, and the icicles that hung about like decorations on most everything. It would be this interest and a father's attempt to live a dream through his son that would set Jack on the path to learning about cryogenics. If Jack was going to be forced into the sciences he was going to enjoy what he was doing to some degree. In Victor Fries the two would find something they could finally discuss as men. It was a dream come true for father and son when Gothcorp attempted to recruit Jack as an up-and-coming scientist. Forced to give himself over to his work Jack would work late hours at Gothcorp most if not every night of the week. This enforced enthusiasm would lead Jack to a confrontation with an associate of Mr. Freeze that would leave him in a similar state as the man that was Victor Fries had become.

Roleplaying Essay

As The Hoods are primarily a Roleplay-centric group, we would like to ensure that anyone who may eventually join the League are capable of some form of RPing. In 500 words or less, please use the following scenario to write a short paragraph or two. This section should feature your character in the role of a villain. Please write in third-person only.

At the heart of Gotham's East End, Weather Wiccan hovers triumphantly at the center of a freak storm of her creation, as your fellow villains lay unconscious at her feet. You are the only still-standing member of your crew. Your misbegotten loot is nearby, but a crowd has gathered cautiously in the streets, both terrified and excited by the melee. Without a second thought you spring into action. (Please continue the story from this moment on.)

(To Be Completed Later)

You can't think that you're playing a villain, or you'll end up with a cartoon. You have to think about him as a person and a hero.
