User blog:TheMightyTom99/Ghost - Supervillain Idea



This is my idea for a supervillain in my new superhero series (Spartan). Ghost is a guerilla war expert and has managed to best Spartan with the help of a super serum called Havoc.

Backstory
Stan Isidor was born in Minsk, Lithuania on 9th January, 1982, the son of a baker and waitress. He was bullied at school because of his poverty and he took to attending martial arts lessons. He beat up two of his bullies at age seven.

After this outburst his parents took him to a psychologist, under advice from his teachers and doctors. He was deemed insane, with intense paranoia. He was placed in solitary treatment and it was decided that he was too unstable to live in the normal world. He was allowed to visit his parnets twice a year, but for the rest of his life, he was to be placed in solitary confinement.

His insanity led him to attempt escape and he succeeded after almost eleven tries. He smuggled his way into an army base, after reading about developments into supersoldier serums. He stole a batch and fled. Two years later, what is assumed to be his alter ego joined the Viet Kong, rigging explosives within Vietnamese towns to surprise American forces. Shocked by the Napalm attacks, he found the war too extreme and left. He joined the Lithuanian Army for a brief period before being dishonorably discharged for violent conduct.

Because of his first hand experience of American brutality, he decided that is was in the best interest of the world to eliminate key American leaders, who supported the Vietnam War. He assassinated the Head of Military Defence and, soon after, the General in Command of American forces in Vietnam.

Soon, a trail a bodies began to form about him, as American forces closed in on him. However, thanks to supporters in Vietnam, itself, he managed to go into hiding. When Spartan returned, supporting the people of America and order, Ghost thought that he was a war sympathiser, despite the obvious refusal to kill.

Ghost assembled a group of elite Guerilla soldiers and formed that Ghost Squad, a platoon of highly trained operatives, aimed at taking down war sympathisers worldwide. This meant everyone who did not publicly attempt to stop violence.

Physical Appearance
Ghost has short brown hair and a tough, rugged face, a testimony to his years of service in the military. His large size and build often allow him to win confrontations without a fight. Despite this, however, he can remain stealthy. Without armour, he still possesses incredible resistance, with his bulk and muscular strength serving him well against most hand-to-hand attacks.

Ghost wears an armoured battle vest which is resistant to knives, bullets and fire and has an imprinted Ghost face on the front, representing his squad. He is an expert with a sniper and often uses escrima sticks, which he attaches to the back of his battle vest.
