Ultimatum

Ultimatum (a.k.a. Ult, Ulti)

Ultimatum is a rather infamous vigilante, characterized by their unnaturally large pool of powers, as well as their almost constant presence in the city. They appear to be active at all times of day, scouting for opportunities where they might help, although they are seen more at night. More notable, however, are their powers, as they seem to have an absurd amount of abilities for an Imbued, and unrelated powers to boot. Still, despite their huge amount of abilities, they refuse to get involved in the superhero community, and they always work solo.   In truth, Ultimatum isn't a single person, but a team of superpowered folk who share the role. The costume is intentionally designed to dsiguise the wearer, with variable padding to even their body shapes, and even the coloration is meant to camoflage. By sharing responsibility, Ultimatum can be active even when people are busy or injured, and no one needs to go out every night, never mind 24/7! Often there will be one or two additional people available but not on the field, should the active Ultimatum need backup, or if they require specific powers that someone else has. Typically, however, they make do with their own powers, patrolling downtown Verdant Grove.

Physical Description

Identifying Characteristics

Ultimatum intentionally wears a costume which disguises their entire body. As a result, the best--and only--way to recognize them is by their costume. Really, who knows what they look like underneath that helmet?

Special abilities

Ultimatum is known for their (unnaturally) large collection of Imbued powers. They cover a wide range of abilities, ranging from all sorts of elemental powers (such as fire and electricity) to stranger and more unique powers.

Apparel & Accessories

Ultimatum has only ever been seen in one costume, sticking to the same design even if the suit is replaced or repaired. Their costume appears skintight, but is actually rather well-padded. The majority of the suit is made out of a flexible material which possesses some protective qualities, such as being flame-retardant, but which isn’t particularly tough beyond that. It is combined with a second material, less flexible but sturdier, which makes up the external padding and their boots. Finally, they wear a hard helmet with a matte, non-transparent visor.   Their helmet is black with a curving white visor, two red stripes running off of the top which meet together at the back of the helmet. Underneath the visor is an orange line. The neck and collarbone area of their suit is white, lined in with a yellow and green stripe which separate the white from the black that makes up most of their suit. The pads on their shoulders are also white, as are the bracers on their lower arms, which are lined at the bottom with light blue. On their knuckles are round pads in darker blue, and the tops of their four fingers have separate purple pads (their thumb is excluded in this). The bottom of their hand is white, with a wide dark blue pad covering the area near the fingers, and purple pads on the bottom of the tip of every finger. The light blue found on their bracers can also be found on their bodysuit, lining a large white area on their sides and back. Just below that, the dark blue can be found as well, running from their crotch up to their hips and onto their back as well, meeting a second line in purple which comes up from their legs, bordering an area in white on the inner thighs. This purple circles the entire upper leg just above the knee, a red line right underneath it. The area below their knees is hidden underneath sturdy boots with a rather uniform shape, colored white with thick green soles. The upper edge of the boots is edged in orange, which in turn is lined with yellow, from which a stripe runs about halfway down the calve on the outer side of the leg.

Personality Characteristics

Virtues & Personality perks

Ultimatum is generally considered to be rather stoic, but not much is known about them. They talk very little, and have a rather obvious voice disguiser on when they do, and avoid working with others. They are obviously hard-working, as they are found protecting the city at all times of day, and dedicated to no end.

Vices & Personality flaws

Ultimatum's closed-off nature makes it difficult to connect to them. On purpose, of course, but that doesn't negate the effect. Quite the opposite, really. Hard to make friends with someone who doesn't care about you in return.
