Biography
Vlad Vane the Fourteenth began as nothing more than a child, who happened upon The Helm merely by accident. It sat no more than a handspan below the water of a small river in his back yard, and Vlad, then known as Jeremy Walker, was excited to have made a cool find. He picked up The Helm, not knowing of the dark spirit that laid inside of it's insidious depths. Enthralled with the unblemished metal, Jeremy shoved it on his head, only to find, with disappointment, that there were no eyeholes. That worry was quickly chased, as Jeremy found his mind quickly wiped clean.
The boy known as Jeremy was no more, and Vlad Vane was born into his Fourteenth incarnation. He was not to be held back by the body of a child. Jeremy's body would go on a rampage, collecting food to fuel the massive growth he was already experiencing. With roars of pain, Jeremy ran through his neighborhood, tearing apart person, pet, even the cold depths of the cellar freezer in a frenzy to feed.
Days later, the transformation was complete. Standing no longer at a mere four foot one, Jeremy, now completely Vlad Vane in not only name and spirit, but appearance as well, was born.
This began a small era where Vlad tried in earnest to take over the small suburban wonderland of America, ultimately failing due to the intervention of a few unknown Metahumans. He ran away, ready to lick his wounds. Vlad, never the one to sit by idly, would continue on, appearing and disappearing at odd points to wreak his personal brand of havok upon the work. Marked by insatiable blood lust, pushing the warrior to depths of madness, cannibalism, and unadulterated brutality, only lately has the incredibly powerful being been spotted on the major radar of those who can post a great threat to the planet itself, if left alone.
The chance came, with the Void Earth incident. With Heroes disappearing before his very eyes, Vlad Vane would carve out his own small chunk of the world. The same suburban area of before became his tribal kingdom, his idea of tyranny being nothing more than crushing even the smallest of subterfuge beneath his clenched fist.
He was quickly usurped when the Legacy Initiative came into fruition, once more heroes forcing him from his so called " Ancestral Grounds " and posing enough danger to make the Berserker think he was not meant to be a king.
Instead, a Champion.

[Weapon Information]
○ Weapon/ Item Name:
The Helm: A primordial artifact, worn on the head. The helmet completely obscures the features of those who wear it, save for the top of their lip and down, leaving a completely blank and expressionless slate.
The Helm is an artifact that is passed from man to man, changing them when they take it. The Helm can only be given willingly, and afterwards, can only be taken off by the wearer. It changes the wearer entirely; they assume the identity of the man who originally wore it. Vlad Vane takes the person over, endowing them with his original powers, any powers gained by those who wear the helmet, and the culminated experience of multiple lifetimes lived whilst wearing the helmet.
The Helms shrouds the users skull in a nearly impenetrable wreath of metal, making it nearly impossible to cause brain damage, or to see the user's face. Magic users have attempted to exorcise the spirit in the past, and all attempts have failed. Likewise. It is considered impossible to get rid of, hide, or otherwise stop the Helm from eventually finding a new host.
[Ability Information]
○ Ability Name:
Helm-Inspired Physiology:
By wearing the Helm, the new Vlad Vane gains various powers.
Super-Human Strength: The user gains Level 100 Strength, allowing him to easily lift weights equal to or exceeding 100 tons. This puts the user on levels equal to that of SuperMan himself.
Super-Human Stamina: Vlad Vane's stamina is legendary. It is postulated that it is impossible for him to tire, suffer the effects of muscle fatigue, or feel the need to sleep.
Super-Human Durability: Vlad Vane is known to have taken attacks the likes of which can be lethal to even other Meta's, and likewise shrug said blows off. He is extremely durable, but this does not cross into the threshold of feeling pain. The limits of this ability can only be guessed at, but Vlad Vane has suffered damage that would have incapacitated others for the remainder of a fight and only rested for a few moments.
Super-Human Speed: Vlad Vane possesses speed that exceeds that of the average meta, allowing him to easily outclass opponents in both speed and strength. His base running speed is approx. 63mph, his reaction time is less than .03 of a second ( average human is .12 ), and this comes with the sub-ability of increased temporal awareness, allowing Vlad to keep up with himself.
Regeneration: Vlad Vane possesses a healing factor the likes of which is comparable to an weakened Lobo. He can heal most wounds within moments, more dangerous or fatal wounds taking much longer to heal as per the level of intensity. Small cuts and scrapes are almost instant, broken bones somewhat longer, and non-required organs can be healed within the hour. Required organ damage can not be healed without outside influence.
Reincarnation Cycle: Vlad Vane is functionally immortal. Whether he decides to give up the helmet willingly, or dies and has it taken, the spirit of Vlad Vane will prosper on to create a new body eventually, allowing him to essentially live forever.
Base Immortality: Vlad Vane impregnates the wearer of the Helm with the ability to live on until he decides to either remove the helmet, or dies through unnatural causes. He will not take sick, age past the original Vlad Vane's prime, nor can he be affected by time-warps with the inherent edge to rapidly age the target. The only way a Vlad Vane can die is through murder, or removal of the helmet. Therefor, it is not considered rare to encounter a Vlad Vane that has lived for hundreds of years.
[Weakness Information]
○ Weakness Name: Vlad Vane's known weaknesses include gaseous chemicals, which have a x2 effectiveness rate against him. This applies to immediate effects, not counting the time it takes for him to overcome said effects. Weapons lined with the element Lead are known to subterfuge his otherwise impregnable durability and slow his healing factor by a rate of x3, while ring surrounded by lead can put him on equal standing to the average meta for a short time.
