== Character Bio ==<br/><div class="floatright">(http://www.spletnik.ru/img/2012/05/natasha/20120510-obama-02.jpg)</div><div class="floatleft">(http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel_dc/images/4/4f/Booster_Gold_v.2_32_virgin.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140613214714)</div><br/>== Personal Information ==<br/><strong>Legal Name:</strong>Michael John Carter<br/><strong>Alias:</strong>Booster Gold<br/><strong>Age:</strong>30<br/><strong>Sexuality:</strong>Straight<br/><strong>Part of Gotham Residing In:</strong>Downtown<br/><br/>== Physical Description == Mike is a thin wiry man, trim and fit, but without bulging muscles or huge limbs. Compared to the company he keeps in, he is rather small honestly. Combined with the fact that he is 6'0, it gives him a bit of a bean stalk appearance. He keeps his blonde hair cut short, showing his blue eyes. But what is most notable is his smile, which is infectious. It has shown less and less though, as the deaths of the greats of the Justice League weigh down the man ever more. He is unscarred, remarkably. This is largely explained by his suit, which protects him from anything.<br/><br/>== Persona == Mike's personality varies widely these days. Some times he is the same Booster Gold as ever, fighting criminals, posing for pictures, living his life at 100%. And sometimes? He just drops into bleak depressions, and will refuse to do anything but sit at his home and drink. Some people believe he needs psychological help, as these moods are becoming more pronounced, not less. Mike ignores them. He has no family here, and his friends are slipping away. If he slips into self destruction, who cares? He works out a lot, using it to relieve stress, but at the end of the day, he is still just a normal guy till he puts on the suit.<br/><br/>== Key Skills == 1) Athletics: Mike is a great athlete, even now, his skills from college persisting.<br/><br/><div class="floatright">(http://www.writeups.org/img/inset/Booster_Gold_h1.jpg)</div>== Advantages == Booster Gold has no inherent powers, but does have quite a bit of stolen technology from the future. He has a ring which grants him flight ability, allowing him to soar with the greats. His suit gives him massively increased strength, as well as protecting him from gunfire (though it still hurts like a bitch.) He has the ability to project forcefields from the suit. His gauntlets contain blasters, which can eat through metal or concrete. Finally, Booster has his Robot Companion Skeets. Skeets is a Robot from the 25th century, with the massive technological leaps that implies. He is an AI with the data stores of that time, capable of flight, and voice projection. Skeets is equipped with a variety of tools and contains a powerful energy blaster. He is the one who does maintanence on Booster's suit, keeps the apartment clean, manages Boosters investments, and largely keeps his day to day life together. This is a full time job for a little AI.<br/><br/>== Disadvantages == Booster Gold is vainglorious fool at times, falling prey to flattery and people playing up to his ego. He can stop to pose, or show his good side at times when he should not. Because of this, his relationship with more... dour superheroes is strained. Furthermore, he's developing a problem with alcoholism, and has developed depression. He has no secret identity, in truth. Booster is Mike, and Mike is Booster. Combined with his fame, this makes him an easy target out of his suit.<br/><br/>== Background == Mike was born 500 years in the future, in a version of Gotham that doesn't exist anymore. His mother was a Night Janitor at city hall, and his dad was a deadbeat who vanished before they were born. He and his twin sister Michelle grew up in the slums together, but she and he were talented. She was a genius and Mike... Mike could throw a football like a dream. Between the two of them, they were a dream team. Then Daddy came back. His father wanted to use Mike, forcing him to lose games by threatening to beat his mother unless he complied. The cops ignored his attempts to get help, and his mother accepted it as the price for having Mike's dad back in his life. So Mike began to lose. When this was uncovered, Michelle, whom he'd hidden this from, walked out of his life. Mike wouldn't know it, but he'd never see her again. His mother got him a job at a Museum, working as a night watchman. That was when his plan came together. The museum housed dozens of artifacts. While hopelessly outdated today, Mike knew something the public didn't. In the basement of the Museum, a group of the researchers had managed to activate an ancient time machine. They hoped to study it, and gain access to time travel technology. But John had other intentions. He stole a few of the artifacts, and used them to bash his way into the lab below, grabbing the time machine and activating it, dropping him in the year 2005.<br/><br/>There, Mike began using the suit, and his knowledge of the future to make a new life for himself. He wasn't Mike, the disgraced college star here. He was Booster Gold, Superhero, Entrepreneur, Philanthropist. He'd be rich, beloved, and powerful. And he succeeded! He became a national hero, rich, famous... and hated by the other heroes who recognized the selfishness of his reasons for doing so. However, that all changed 5 years after he arrived. He didn't answer the call of Batman, Superman, and the others to fight Darkseid, knowing they would win without him. It was history. And... he was wrong. Something went horribly wrong. And they died. And history changed. Booster returned to his time, and found everything changed. Gotham was filthy deranged place. He found his mother, or at least her grave. She died when she was 16, stabbed to death in an alley. He never went looking for his father. His place in time was gone, his sister. His family. And he ran away. Ran from his time, back to the 20th century. In transit, the Time Travel Device blew out, fried into a useless mess. The strain of travelling in different time streams ruined it. He emerged 5 years after he'd left, to discover his life here gone as well. He'd been declared dead. After a long fight, he managed to get some of his money back... but five years is a long time. His company was gone, the public had moved on, and Booster found himself without direction.<br/><br/>== Character Extras == Face Claim: Neil Patrick Harris.<br/><br/>Ons: Confident Women, maledom, bondage, spanking, public sex.<br/><br/>Offs: Toilet, underage, gore, male on male, male submission.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Realtionships:<br/><br/>Aquaman: Booster knows Aquaman from his days in the Justice League, though his information is largely 5 years out of date. He thinks the fellow generally needs to relax more, and live it up. He's a king for goodness sake. If Booster was a King, he'd spend a lot of time lazing around on a divan, being fed grapes by luscious women. However, like most of the Justice League members, he secretly was fond of the fellow, admiring his devotion to his people. As two of the last Justice Leaguers left, he feels a connection, though the survivors guilt blocks to much there.<br/><br/>Batwoman: Booster doesn't actually know Batwoman. But he does know Kate Kane. The socialite and inhabitant of Wayne Manor has visited him several times. Booster at first thought she was interested in a fling, something to which he would have been open. A few questions dissuaded that notion, and Booster largely has no idea what her game is. He kind of things she is just a fan, honestly. He's grateful for anyone paying him attention anymore, to tell the truth.
