miniMAX - Scotto's PC

egame- 1999, live - 1996

Life's always been a little odd for Will Piper. At seven, he won a science fair prize for showing that meta-abilities can exist in plant life. (Sadly, the experiment was lost after the fern in question found a suitable 'host' to control, and fly it to somewhere in South America. The pilot returned with no memory of the incident.) At twelve, he and his younger brother (six at the time) inexplicably stopped a bank robbery by blinding the robber with Fire extinguisher spray & locking him in the vault. Events like those happen to Will on a regular basis... this is not to say regular things don't happen to him, but it seems that oddities are more frequent with him around. He's a product o f a boy's club style family. (His mother died when he was 13, leaving behind a very busy father, and a younger brother.) Will thrived when he took on the household responsibilites, acting as cook & maintenance for the family, as well as tutor and confidant to his younger brother. Aside from the occasional peanut-butter omelette (Which younger brother August enjoys eating...), Will did a great job keeping the family together and maintaining excellent grades at school. Excelling in science, Will got a scholarship to U Penn, and later was recruited by Sabretech to pursue his theory about loosening the bonds surrounding matter (Desolidification) surrounding matter to allow for safe, unhindered movement from place to place. Cars never need crash, police need never be shot, and freight trains could fit dozens of cargo cars overlapping in the space of just one. The procedure involved a chemical bath of the object, and subjecting it to a 'phase-altering' radiation. Unfortunately this experiment never came to fruition, as on the fifth day of testing, the laboratory building suffered some sort of electrical surge, exploding the containment tank, and dousing visiting brother August, a lab Chimpanzee and Will with an upsettingly large amount of the chemical. After a quick trip to the emergency room, and showing no ill effects, both of them began exhibiting a high level of control over the molecules in their own body. The chimp somehow gained a much higher intelligence as well. (One guess is the Neurons of his brain formed new connections and 'jumpers' as a result of the accident. INT. of about 13-15), and communicates via a hand powered voice box on his chest. (acts as Will's Lab assistant, now.) Will, by extending or contracting the distance between his atomic structure can shrink to a small, physically dense man of about 4 inches tall and grow to a powerful giant of nearly 3 or four stories. August's abilities are not similar to Will's, he can bridge seemingly empty gaps in space with a thought. August has since gone to boarding school to learn to control his abilities. Shortly after the accident, Will left Sabretech (and destroyed the notes he had there) when it was revealed that the lab was making weapons for a terrorist group. Hired by Vanguard he and the ape (Who has taken the name Owen, and under sentient beasts law, exists as a citizen) continue work in subatomic physics and molecular biology there. Eventually Sabretech came looking for him, to take notes back, and to have him build weaponry for them. He refused, and instead decided to take the law into his own hands to destroy the lab. Donning a costume and building a few items that would help in the attack, Will (as miniMAX) infiltrated the lab's complex, made sure no people were there, and laid waste to the computer & written weaponry information. No longer safe at Vanguard's labs in Hershey, Will and Owen transferred to the ABE area branch within the last 3-4 days. After getting a taste of pummeling bad guys, Will has decided to devote a serious portion of his time tracking down the baddies, and seeing to it that they get picked up by the rightful authorities. (Once fully trained, he hopes to send for his brother, and work as a team. That, and he misses the little booger.) A side effect of his molecular shifting ablitites, Will takes more damage from electro-magnetic attacks.

The other players would know of a blue-suited giant crimefighter with a gadget bent. (I don't imagine the shrinking would make the papers as much, except that he seems to manage to leave the scene very quickly, and he does wear a silver jetpack lately.) Other things known would be he used to appear in Hershey, but is now in ABE, is known to put protecting innocents in front of capturing criminals... has medical skills to some degree. Apparently has a flippant but friendly attitude to non-violent types and authorities, and is seemingly appaled by violent folk.

Appearance-wise, he's a handsome man, with the build of an an athlete who engages in regular workouts. Sandy-brown hair, cut short for comfort, low maintenance style. Eyes are blue. If I had to pick a look, I'd go with Gil Kane's Hal Jordan (Green Lantern) about 1965 or so. Think Johnny Weismeuller without the stupid look on his face. In costume, he wears a Blue & black jumpsuit (akin to a S.H.E.I.L.D. uniform, with black knee-boots, long Black gloves & a black riot helmet w/mirrored visor for keeping the identity a secret. An 'elevator-like' logo on his chest, with a green tringle pointing up over a red one pointing down, on a yellow oval. (He keeps the costume shrunk on his person, in a pocket...about half the size of Ken-doll clothes...when changing, he shrinks down, takes a half phase and grows to fill.) When not in costume, he usually wears polo-style shirts, Khaki pants. In the lab that's augmented with safety goggles and a lab coat.
