Gera was created in the very beginning of City of Heroes, he was to be a inuvlnerable tanker, but then decided to choose the earth armor set, with colossus in mind. I never wanted Gera to wear tights, or atleast a bright costume due to his casual street nature and urban ways. An urban super hero with no tights, an extremely casual person who just wants to do good. He is a person trying to find who he is and above all, reach his full potential. He is a mixture of several characters with my own personal taste added in.

Powers&Abilities

Super Strength

Gera has incredible strength derived from his mutant heritage. The extent of his power seems to be unknown. He has been seen on numerous occasions demonstrating phenomonal control with his strength. When fighting Lord Recluse, Gera was force to use much more force than he was used to and nearly shattered Recluse's sternum with a single punch. He can lift many heavy things easily, such as warships, skyscrappers, tanks, and once a whole mountain range. With all this strength, he can still apply precise force. His legs are powerful as well, allowing him to leap over a slew of medium sized buildings and soar through the air without using flight.

Material Manipulation/Production

Gera can manfacture native materials from earth through his own body. He can produce many minerals and metals from diamond to uranium. The production of the materials can be spontaneous, taking only 1/4 of a second to produce large ammounts of granite or etc. The prodction seems to be constantly flowing through his body.

He can control earth native materials at his will. Whether is has been manipulated already(i.e. brick) or untouched. The range of this ability is unknown but the farthest he has manipulated earth so far is abou 20 miles from his body. He has almost full mastery over his manipulation, often sculpting things out of diamonds and etc. He can also spread the manipulated earth around himself to prevent lethal damage and etc. He is also famous for achieving a granite giant like form that is literally unbreakable and sturdy. Though he has mastered most of his terrakinesis abilities, he can only spend up to 5 hours in his granite form, any more and he begins to lost control not only physically, but mentally as well.

Additional Powers

Invincibility

Gera's skin is tightly bonded together. Most of the time he does not use his earth "armors" as he is fine without. The texture of his skin is unusually rough and hard to the touch. He can take artillery shells to the face without moving an inch, and can withstand stabs done by most materials, even diamond and proto-steel.

Flight

Gera manipulates his own earth like body to ascend into flight, reaching the speed of sound. He also is a master at aerial combat. Usually when flying at high speeds, he will purposely crash into his opponents, cause massive damage that often result in death. He restrains himself though, only using his flight techniques under the upmost threat.

Super Speed

Gera, despite his heavy frame, can run extremely fast. Though the full extent is unknown, he is able to reach light speed.

Stamina

Hardened to the core, Gera does not tire easily. He can spend days or even months on constant patrol. Since his body can manufacture it's own material, Gera does not have to consume any food. He is also capable to not breath as well as his lungs work different from that of a human's.

Fire Manipulation/Prodcution

As his recent mutation, he can produce and manipulate fire. This power is still being learned by him as he still cannot make the fire around his head to fade.

General Regeneration/Manufacture

His body can regenerate limbs in seconds. The cells in his body are also super fast in duplication and repair. Gera's general muscle frame is not attained but naturally born with. His body is constantly growing in mass. His final size is still unknown. in general he is constantly evolving.

Weaknesses and Limitations

Though he can manfacture some sort of defense to his weakness, he is still very vulnerable to psionics. The slightest attack almost dizzy him. For this he constantly has anti-psionic minerals flowing around his scalp.

Equipment

He often wields two bulky metal gloves similar to Back Alley Brawler's. Though they do look menacing, Gera has stated that it is purely for control over his fire powers and he said they look "cool". Due to his running speed he buys only the toughest shoes, some even tailored for him especially. His fire powers are in a constant flux and thus he wears fire resistant clothing, and to special occasions he wears sunglasses that supress his head flame.

Character History

Right after the Rikiti War, a large, smoking man was found in a burning field, screaming. When authorities went to rescue the man, he still screamed. It was Gera. For two days the man screamed until he fell into a coma for a week and then woke up. The police asked what had happened and he could answer nothing. When trying to find his personal information, nothing turned up. No family, no medical records, no schooling records, nothing. All Gera could know, or remember was that he is a mutant, his own name, and his religion.

Afterwards, inspired by his own personl morals and a divine sent urge, he became a superhero under his own name.

Career

His career was very unique and suprising. He has defeated most of the Praetorians on numerous occasions. [[image:gear2.jpg|thumb| He has subdued the Kracken exactly 7 times,has fought the Hamidon four times, and defeated Lord Recluse and crew twice. Once in the dimension known as Recluse's Victory and once on a Task Force. He has battled numerous villains and most recently, many demons.He even dismantled a Malta Kronos titan solo. He has often fought with the Praetorian version of the Back Alley Brawler, Maruader. In one fight, he nearly crushed Maruader's body if his teammates did not stop him. He even subdued Nemesis, even punching through his infamous armor. Gera remains active today, still fighting the villains which plague Paragon City.

Trivia

Gera must eat food in frozen state because of his flame surrouding his head.

Gera's blood is partly made up of brimstone and fire.

Sometimes, when he breathes out heavily, sulphur, smoke, and brimstone ash will come out of his mouth and nostrils.
