User blog:Queen Misery/Some Old Create-a-Hero Stuff

just a little blog to show something I'm not so known for, "traditional" superhero fiction.. these two characters were part of my "create-a-hero" stage of writing and would play in making up my current (largely) non-superhero cosmology.

These differ from most superheroes in fiction in the fact they are still very much designed with cosmic origin and purposes in light - before I dedicated myself to the Dreamer Cycle but knew of Alpha / Evil and so forth in my mind's eye.

The male is Thrall and the female is Delilah and I will reveal some things in this blog of what could of been..

Thrall
Thrall was once a human who while still in the womb was visited by Alpha and given a divine purpose, to embody the seven virtues - thus upon accepting the infant Thrall would become the Alpha "incarnate" but had vastly inferior powers to the Godhead (or even many Absolutes) : yet his mind and spirit was altered to a degree he could not be swayed by ordinary temptation or corruption and become a devoted champion of the ideals that make up the Seven Virtues.

with time Thrall would gain superhuman abilities based around the Seven Virtues and became one of Earth's greatest heroes - a role he continues to this day.

Delilah
Delilah on the other hand is a cosmic anomaly, the "daughter" of The Omega she was instructed by her "father" to pursue Thrall and ensure the hero would give into corruption or despair so that the Seven Virtues would in turn become flawed, allowing The Omega to rise and sweep over reality, erasing all of the Alpha's creation (which the Omega sees as flawed).

Delilah was very nearly successful when she kissed Thrall, infecting him with the Seven Sins and driving him insane - causing Earth's greatest heroes to clash with Thrall, yet despite numering in the thousands nearly all of Earth's heroes fell to Thrall and Delilah's goal seemed complete.

Yet Thrall would awaken from his frenzy after feeling the pain of the world he was destroying and in his final rage used the power of Wrath to cast Delilah into the depths of space, where she would remain for many months until The Omega sent an agent to collect its "daughter".. in the form of the mad sorcerer known as Inferno Pendragon (this was before Inferno became the hero we know in Villains Lore and was more akin to a Thanos figure).
