Known Background: Backlash gained his powers about eight years ago. Marc Adams was travelling with his parents in Southern California, and they had the misfortune of being at the same mall when Captain Zero attacked Whirlwind and War Eagle. He and his family would have been killed in the attack, except for them being saved by a time travelling super being. The experience changed Marc on the quantum level, although it would be a few years before his powers would manifest. He was travelling, again, and the plane he was on was beseiged by terrorists. As his powers make him relativly invulnerable, he was able to stop them, disguised in a sweatsuit and a makeshift mask. He also substituted himself for the plane's crippled forward landing gear. After such a public beginning, it was only a matter of time before he was invited to join the Champions of Justice. For reasons of his own, he chose to become a Champions of Justice reservist, and served in that capacity for years. More recently, he's switched to the primary team. He makes his home in the Midwest.

As a side note it should be said that his parents did not gain powers as they were not rescued the first time Marc was. A first super being, Timefire, rescued Marc Adams, which created Backlash. However, a split second earlier, it was a time travelling Backlash that saved Marc and his family. Since nature abhors temporal paradoxes, Marc Adams still gained his quantum powers. Personality: Backlash, was, at one time driven by a need to avenge the death of his family. But that changed when he managed to save them and spare himself the mistake of allying himself with Timefire. Now he is driven by a need to help people, to spare them the hurt and loss he nearly felt. At his heart he is an artist and cartoonist. He tends to think of things visually, often with a greater sense of asthetics than the average super hero. He also has a sharp sense of humour, which helps as he shares a name with a famous entrepaneur. Powers/Tactics: Backlash posesses the ability to absorb and redirect tremendous amounts of energy, on the quantum level, both kinetic and electromagnetic. He is, naturally, highly resistant to these energies, and his body naturally adapts some of the energy he absorbs to heal what damage does occur. When he redirects kinetic energy, it manifests as short bursts of super human strength. Electromagnetic energy is released as energy bursts. The more energy he absorbs, the more energy he can later release. He has become a talented fighter, and often tries to draw fire away from his teammates. |
Appearance: Backlash is a fair haired man of about 5'9" with a medium build. His uniform is based on his old black and crimson sweatsuit, adding the traditional boots, gloves and mask.
Backlash was created, designed, and is played by Matt Hallaron.
