Note: This is my first time ever publishing for a character that I recently created, so if you can please give honest feedback. I want to improve my skills on character creation so any reviews or constructive criticism would be appreciated. Thank you.
Prologue:
Who am I? What am I? (He then looks at hands, sees bandages wrapped around his arms with hints of deep tissue scarring underneath)
Those are the questions I've asked myself when I woke up to this...cesspool of a city. You could tell it was a cesspool, suspicious characters everywhere, rumors of numerous murderers, street gangs, corrupt cops, mutilated prostitutes, the whole thing. (Shows decrepit alleyway, Mr. Grimm killing a prostitute and biting her, and a police arresting a black man by planting evidence)
I woke up in an alleyway in the middle of the freezing winter, the cold kiss of death trying to envelope me in packs of freezing snow, no idea where I was at the time. (Shows Eric walking through the cold, delirious)
When I woke up I heard sirens, they were speeding past the alley way as if they were chasing something...or someone. Around this time I was going in and out of consciousness, not knowing what was going on in my surroundings. (Shows him collapsing at edge of alleyway)
Last thing I remembered was overhearing a bunch of men saying they have found their target, as I was fading in and out all I saw was black suits and the silver outlining of pistols aimed right towards me. And then...I finally blacked out. (Shows a blurry vision of black suits and silver pistols)
When I woke up it was hours later, I had no idea what happened but the whole block was destroyed, cars thrown around, headless corpses, a vandalized building, hell even melted bodies. I was speechless, I didn't know what to say, hell I was questioning whether or not I did it but after a while it became clear that I definitely did something. (Shows the destruction of the scene with the multiple dead bodies and such)
From the ashes of the blaring night came some bald man, walking past the carnage as if he had seen worse before and it was merely child's play. I didn't know who that man was but I knew for sure that he wasn't a government agent. I was sure that I saw that man's face before but he was unlike any federal agent I ever saw. I asked who he was and what he wanted, he stood there for a couple of seconds and just said to me straight up "I am the salvation you seek" (Shows him and Calypso meeting face to face, carnage all around them, talking)
He started to describe his game, that it's about getting into a car and destroying opponents and getting the reward…one Wish...anything I wanted...sounded like cold murder, but I thought to myself, "How else am I going to understand who I am and what those men wanted with me" (Shows Eric driving off in his Banshee)
Dialogue:
Suburban Terror- "Who exactly am I? I keep thinking in my head but I'm coming up blank"
Junkyard- "Why in hell can't I remember who I am?!"
Ghetto- "These powers I have...so...odd! What the hell have I been doing recently to get this?"
Harbor Shopping Plaza- "Me and my family used to shop here...oh the memories..everything is starting to come back piece by piece"
Harbor City- "It's a damn shame I have to destroy a whole city but I will do anything I can to figure out what the hell is going on…"
Rooftops- "I feel as though my random impulses could work to my advantage on these rooftops"
Stadium Slaughter- "Hmm...a challenger who could actually go toe to toe with me...let's see what he can do"
Middle Movie: (Shows the final destruction of Minion, with Eric looking at the wreckage in the stadium, crows fly over the fire) That was probably my greatest challenge yet, not going to lie. Too bad it has to end like this (Shows Eric picking up Minion by the ear and screaming into it loudly with a piercing shriek, causing his head to explode)
It was then that triggered some kind of memory from a long, long time ago. The shrieking, the tank the man was driving, everything started coming together. The government types had a reason to try to take me down alright: I was a fucking test subject, a guinea pig for some lab experiment. (Shows flashing signs of files showing MK Ultra, and heinous lab experiments)
Thing was, I signed up for the testing because with my salary as a lowly janitor couldn't support an entire household. When they agreed to have large amounts of cash funneled to the family, how could I say no? We needed anything that we could get ahold of. (Shows Eric signing papers on a clipboard near a bunch of men in suits, thoughts of a prosperous future with Eric and his family)
Except this time I wasn't a failed test subject like all the others, at least not in a traditional sense. All the testing I underwent was supposed to make me a sort of sleeper agent or something. You know, overseas assassinations, coups, the whole thing; but instead it triggered some sort of weird mutation and I got the powers that I have now. (Shows an assassination of a politician in a kitchen, shows an american leading syrian rebels to kill. It then shows Eric going crazy and shrieking ear piercing sounds, eyes blood red, and a scientist being skinned alive by the force of sound)
The base I was kept at, it was a large underground area someplace, somewhere; I don't know where. That tank was there too, agents all around, everything. Then one day I was pushed too far with the testing and I finally snapped. I went crazy, I killed government agents left and right, I destroyed entire tanks in one yell, the whole place got on fire, it was like I hit a gas line or something. The whole place lit up, and I barely escaped on time. I ran to the outside, and eventually just collapsed, waking up in some shit hole. However, if those government agents found me in a giant snowstorm then they probably have my family somewhere….I can only hope to find them quickly. (Shows a large underground bunker, a bunch of special forces agents guarding the Minion tank. Then shows Eric getting pierced with needles, breaking out, killing and destroying a majority of agents and scientists; a fire erupts and the entire bunker is engulfed in flames. Eric escapes the bunker and runs into the cold abyss of Harbor City. It then shows his thoughts on agents killing his family, making him fear for their lives. He then gets in his car and drives to the next arena.
Arenas Part II:
Railyard- "I'll find you guys, don't worry. At this point, nothing will stop me"
Death Port and Docks- "I'm even more urgent to find my family now, I hope the suits didn't do anything to them."
Carnival of Darkness- "And I thought I was a nutcase"
SCenter- "I've seen some of these people before, some of the same people oversaw the experiments at the base...time to show them what I was created to do"
Sewer- "Oddly I can relate to being chained up to a wall and tortured for hours….sad to see people going out like this"
Prison Yard- "A lot of these prisoners seem to have the same tattoos that I have…was I kept here at some point in time?"
Harbor Military Base- "I remember, this is the place I was held at...except the bunker entrance is sealed. Time to burn this place to the fucking ground."
Harbor City Airport- "I don't know what happened to my family but….I hope they made it out...this last battle is for you guys!"
Ending: I saw the giant blimp in the sky and I knew that now was the time I needed to get my answers. I crashed into the side and got out, looking at the junky decor around Calypso's throne room. Through the smoke Calypso walked to me and asked me what I wanted for my prize. I looked dead cold into his eyes, his soul was...empty. He didn't care about what happened. (Shows Eric driving his car into the throne room, slowly limping over to the throne of Calypso and looking into his eyes)
Then I looked down, I saw the collapse of civilization as I knew it, it disgusted me. It made me shiver. I looked back up at Calypso. He asked me what I wanted for my prize. I told him everything I wanted. I told him I wanted to see my family. Unfortunately he smirked and granted that wish as exact as I asked him. (Shows Eric looking down onto the destroyed city of Harbor, he looks at Calypso and gives him a stare. Calypso smiles in a sinister manner as he walks down and puts his hand on Eric's head, chants some weird words and red beams shoot out of Calypso's eyes)
The room was dark but it felt unholy, disgusting almost. It felt even worse once the lights switched on. I saw my family in front of me, dead, lying on the tables, cut open, mutilated. I was shocked...I didn't know what to think...but then I noticed something. I couldn't move, open my eyes, do anything. I was completely paralyzed. (Shows Eric on a slab in a decaying and rusted room in the dark. Shows the lights coming on, and the corpses of Eric's family being cut open before having a cloth thrown over them. Then shows Eric trying to move but with no movement whatsoever except brief flashes to show that he's trying to move internally)
The man with the scalpel read the notes and...I was at a loss for words. The cause of death was internal pressure, high velocity sounds. Then suddenly I remembered something...my family was allowed to visit that day. I think I went crazy and...oh no...I didn't….(Shows the doctor reading the notes, shows Eric going crazy at the military base and his family cowering in a corner)
Everything overwhelmed me as I had simultaneous thoughts of depression and anger. All the sudden, the man came closer to me. Then I finally realized what was going on...I was being pushed into some container of sorts...I read the nametag...Dr. Olypsac...Oh no! Somebody, please hear me! I'm alive! Calypso you bastard! (Shows the doctor going towards Eric, zipping up the black bag over him and finally pushing him into a grey container containing many other different slabs of dead bodies as well, including the bodies of John Doe, Billy Ray Stillwell and Dollface. It then pans to Dr. Olypsac's nametag, with the name of his workplace right under it: Harbor City Funeral Home)
