Personality
Arrogant:
Not surprisingly, Bullseye is a massive egotist when it comes to his abilities and profession.
This isn't someone who thinks he's one of the best -- he IS the best at what he does, and will go
toe-to-toe with anyone who thinks they do it better than he can. He's a perfectionist who considers
what he does an art --- perhaps the worst combo you can get when it comes to an assassin --- and
will go out of his way to prove it to you and anyone watching that there's no one better at killing
than him.
Narcissistic:
Due to his inherent narcissism, Bullseye refuses to take responsibility when things go
inevitably wrong, and is quick to blame others for his own shortcomings. Add to that an unhealthy
self-image mixed with his sadistic nature, and you get a truly volatile man bubbling under his ice-
cold exterior. A joke at his expense could lead to a playing card in your throat. Professional
rivalries could turn into bloody feuds. And fights with heroes who have foiled him, or even worse ---
made him miss --- can turn into lifelong vendettas where the only ending is certain death for one of
you
Psychotic:
A true psychopath, Bullseye possesses zero empathy for the people around him, and any sort of
conscience to speak of is virtually non-existent. In his mind, you're either dollar signs or a
personal project, but perhaps what makes him even more frightening is how *high-functioning* of a
psychopath he actually is. This isn't a man who cackles wildly into the air before blowing up a
bank. This is a calculated, highly-intelligent predator -- one whose boorish attitude can be flipped
to an undeniable charm in less than a second, making him infinitely more dangerous to anyone unlucky
enough to end up on his bad side.
Sadistic:
There's no two ways about it --- violence is a language that Bullseye speaks very, very
fluently. And while some supervillains might consider brute force as a mere tactic to achieve their
goals, Bullseye sees it as not just necessary, but downright essential. In fact, some in the field
have said that the most joyful they've ever seen the typical curmudgeon is when he's killing a mark
or torturing vigilantes for his own amusement. In short? Bullseye's the kid you knew growing up who
laughed way too much ripping the wings off a fly. Now, as an adult? You're the fly. And your wings
are everyone you love.
Character Sheet
Powers
Throwing Mastery:
The inspiration behind his mercenary codename, Bulleye's almost supernatural ability to throw
any object with lethal precision is legendary among heroes and villains, alike. In scientific terms,
Bullseye possesses a hypercognitive brain that allows him to make highly-complex calculations
regarding geometry and physics in a split-second. This, combined with his exceptional arm strength
and naturally perfect hand-eye coordination, makes him just as, if not more, dangerous than some of
his superpowered peers. In combat, Bullseye's been known to ricochet objects off walls, throw
weapons over vast distances at frightening velocities, and turn something as simple as a paper plane
into a viable murder weapon. In short, he is an unpredictable force of nature when he has anything
in his hands, making him a formidable killer in virtually any situation.
Skills
Acrobatics:
A natural athlete, Bullseye possesses an Olympic-level physique that enables him to accomplish
some truly spectacular feats despite not having any powers. Sacrificing raw strength for superior
agility and mobility, Bullseye has been able to keep up with even the most nimble heroes in regards
to raw athleticism.
Bladed Weapons:
Though it's rumored he learned much of his close-quarters fighting skills in the military, the
sheer savagery that Bullseye displays when wielding knives, swords, or other edged weapons suggests
a sheer, natural affinity. When not engaged in pure fisticuffs, Bullseye will often lead with one of
his trusty knives, looking for a quick stab to the heart or an efficient slice to the throat to
dispatch a would-be dispatcher.
Demolitions:
While it's not often used in his line of covert wetwork, a time may come when an explosion is
necessary to take out a target (or dozen). Largely self-taught when it comes to plastic explosives
and the like, Bullseye has occasionally needed to craft and utilize bombs when the situation calls
for it.
Elite Marksmanship:
Despite his proclivity for thrown weapons, Bullseye's pinpoint accuracy also lends itself to
other forms of ranged weaponry. Occasionally wielding conventional firearms like handguns, machine
guns, or sniper rifles, Bullseye has also shown incredibly proficiency with bows and crossbows, as
well. Though he considers these means of murder somewhat boring and superficial, they are no doubt
an invaluable collection of skills for his repertoire.
Interrogation:
A cold-blooded sadist with a penchant for torture and intimidation, Bullseye derives
unimaginable pleasure from hurting others. So, when someone happens to have information that
Bullseye needs to extract, the masked assassin has no qualms about doing what must be done (and
perhaps a little extra) to make sure he gets what he needs. Whether it's carving up a victim's
flesh, burning them with fire, or hurting a loved one right in front of their eyes, it's the sheer
destruction of that person's will that truly makes Bullseye feel alive.
Investigation:
While his combat prowess is what he's known for, true fans of Bullseye will tell you about his
obsessive-compulsive tendencies regarding the studying of his targets. A predator in every sense of
the word, Bullseye has been known to observe his potential kills for day, weeks, if not months, in
order to get an idea of their routines, relationships, and abilities. This mental advantage is often
what makes the biggest difference should he ever have to engage with them in one-on-one
combat.
Martial Arts:
Though his reputation with projectile weapons is his calling card, Bullseye has mastered several
different martial arts in order to be effective at close-quarters combat. Able to hold his own
against some of New York's best hand-to-hand fighters, Bullseye's proficiency with muay thai, tae
kwon do, and krav maga makes him a nightmare to anyone who dares to square up, mano a mano.
Master Assassin:
Extremely knowledgeable of human biology and psychology, Bullseye is one of the most cerebral
hired killers in the business. While his expertise in pressure points, bone structure, and
physiology makes him the go-to guy when someone needs to be taken out in a particular fashion,
physically, it's how he approaches each kill that makes him so deadly and efficient. Be it a sneaky
cloak-and-dagger operation in the middle of a crowded room, to a toothpick flicked straight through
a window from a building across the street, Bullseye has shown a wealth of cleverness, patience, and
creativity when it comes to killing his targets -- so much so that he considers himself an artist at
his chosen profession.
Resources
Armored Suit:
When operating in the field, Bullseye employs a black, lightweight bodysuit and mask that are
reinforced with ceramic plates and a durable kevlar weave. Optimized for mobility, they can
withstand a surprising amount of damage from most conventional firearms, knives, and hand-to-hand
combat, but possess several weak points that could easily be exploited by more discerning
opponents.
Criminal Network:
With all the contacts Bullseye has made over the last several years, the man with a target on
his forehead is anything but in regards to some of the real shot-callers in New York City. Because
of his numerous ties with these people and groups, Bullseye has amassed a rather extensive network
of fences, mercenaries, and fellow assassins -- not to mention crooked lawyers, corrupt law
officials, blackmailed politicians, and anyone else that might be under the thumb of any of his
current "employers." Should things ever go south for him, professionally, Bullseye is confident
he'll be able to snake his way out -- just like any real survivor should.
Mercenary Work:
Considering how simple Bullseye's life is, he's relatively wealthy for someone his age. Wetwork
is expensive, after all, and to those with the money who can afford the best, Bullseye's reputation
allows him to charge at a premium. Employed rather consistently by some of the biggest names in
crime over the last several years, Bullseye is now in a position where he's more than financially
stable for at least a few lifetimes -- as long as those high-profile contracts continue to keep
rolling in.
Safehouses:
For those in his line of work, there's never a place he can truly consider "home." For this
reason, Bullseye's first major financial decisions went to buying small patches of real estate --
both on and off the grid -- to serve as safehouses. Not only are they dotted around New York so he
can always lay low when the heat's on, but they also all contain caches of weapons, money, and
equipment to ensure he can literally fight another day.
Tools of the Trade:
An assassin should never be without his weapons, and Bullseye has everything he needs in spades.
A noted lover of blades, Bullseye possesses an extremely impressive array of knives on his belt and
boots, along with a multitude of equipment pouches that house everything from small explosives, to
poison darts, to those trusty shurikens everyone knows and loves. When a bullet is on the menu for a
job, however, Bullseye carries a 9mm Beretta on his right leg, but will go to one of his safehouses
and access his extensive military-grade gun collection when more firepower is needed.
Weaknesses
Ego:
Bullseye is a lone wolf by nature, and while many would chalk it up to other assassins flat-out
refusing to work with a full-blown psychopath, the fact of the matter is that Bullseye would never
consider doing it in the first place. As arrogant and egotistical a bastard as you'll ever meet,
Bullseye believes he is the best in the world at what he does, so while his cockiness is a huge
factor in deterring others from working with him, it's his stubborn unwillingness to play well with
others that thrusts him into situations where he's in way over his head.
Infamy:
Make no mistake about it, it takes a certain amount of crazy to make someone a killer, and it
takes even more of that craziness to make one of the most fearsome and well-known killers in the
business. That said, Bullseye's unrelenting appetite for death and destruction has made him an
incredibly high-profile target for law enforcement and some of the world's most powerful heroes.
Because of this notoriety, Bullseye cannot afford to be in the public eye for long or make any sort
of mistake on the job, as the bounty on his head is as big as the list of heroes who want to see him
in jail or six-feet under.
Perfectionist:
No doubt intertwined with his massive ego, Bullseye is a self-admitted perfectionist and has
absolutely no patience for anyone or anything that could besmirch his reputation. That said,
Bullseye is incredibly meticulous about details to the point where even the simplest mistake can
tear his world asunder. Someone who bases their entire life on hitting targets can be manipulated
quite easily by someone who's shrewd enough to pick up on it, and -- as long as they know what
buttons to push -- can turn it to their advantage.
