Characters:
In a world where words are people, one man is about to change the world.
XD Mann: XD had always been secluded in the Superhero community mainly because he’s an emoticon; a fake, because with two symbols X and a D he can generate a smile, without really needing to express his real emotions. Most people see this as empty. As a result he’s always the loner and never the team player. Nobody knows for sure why he chose the symbol; maybe it was to never betray his real intentions. In real conversations he rarely smiles. He’s a very skilled martial artist and he never hesitates.
The Exclamation Point: (Deceased) EP was one of the most active superheroes in the community. Where he fights, buildings explode, mass murderers get executed in pretty nasty ways, and enemies always die from multiple injuries. He’s also the one with the biggest pride, and he doesn’t always get to the point.
Plus: Like the Plus symbol, she brings out the best from people she works with, though not in a motivating you can do it kind of way. She intimidates other heroes so much; a hero would be forced to bring out his best to the table. Ever since EP died, she grows crankier everyday.
Licorice: LICK as some people call him, have the best power no one would ever want. He can read everyone’s past living or dead with the use of his tongue. As a result he’s the world’s greatest Forensics expert. But nobody ever want to kiss him. Alcoholic. He secretly loves all women.
The Idea: Somebody once said, “Ideas are Bulletproof.” (V from Vendetta) so there you go; he’s bulletproof. But most of the time he’s plain stupid.
Question Mark: He believes the best way to find the truth is to ask the right questions. Everything else about him is a question mark.
Editor: He calls himself a ‘revolutionary’ that would change the world and he’s not afraid to sacrifice people along the way. He believes that evil people tarnishes his great society. He started with killing innocent commas and periods that doesn’t belong in their respective place. The Exclamation Point was his first great murder.

Love it! And you are absolutely right about the Editor. So LICK is a coroner? I can't wait to read more! You will hook all geeky grammarians out there (including me)!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yup Lick is a coroner. I try to create a page on weekdays. I'll have the update on Monday. I wanted to create a series that focuses on the technical side of writing and grammar, without resorting to the Dora the Explorer kind of thing. Expect it to be a bit Pulp Fiction and Sin City and Watchmen type. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI like Question Mark. hehehe! It describes me as a person. I ask questions before going into deeper. Also, for me to understand the situation better or should I say to know the truth..
ReplyDeletegaling ah... Keep it up dude.
