Nu-Perspective Black History Month: Day 25- CREED

Wow, the final days of our Black History Month celebration. So if you've been paying attention you would know that each day of February I re-released a Nu-Perspective revamped comic book/pop culture character. But so far these characters have all been from North America. Well, time to switch it up. I want to highlight some characters and creators from my homeland of Barbados. Now, these ones are reposts, but they aren't revamps, just my style on some pretty sick characters. You will still get the complete bio and art, I just feel these characters deserve some love.

First up we have Joshua Creed- from the novel "The Soltreian Chronicles" created and written by Omar Kennedy. See more at: Fb: The Soltreian Chronicles

Creed (no, I didn't draw him incorrectly, those are his proportions, he's short and stocky)

Character Name: Joshua Creed
Real name: Unknown
Occupation: None
Identity: Publicly known
Place of Birth: Bridgetown, Barbados
Group Affiliations: The Members Immortalis
Base of Operations: Soltreus
First Appearance: The Soltreian Chronicles: Ten Thousand Years Under Sol
 
History: Killed along with seven and a half billion people in the apocalypse known as The Fall, the man who would become Joshua Creed awoke in a post-apocalyptic landscape by the enigmatic Lord Armant Zhol. Now immortal, Creed realizes that the apocalypse that the world suffered was a man-made event and now races against time to prevent the Calamity – the true apocalypse which is destined to doom every living thing that has or will ever exist. 

Height: 5 foot 7 inches
Weight: 240 lbs
Eyes: Golden
Hair: Black
Strength Level: His abilities increase as he ages but at his evolutionary peak, he can press over ten tons.
 
Powers/Abilities: Creed is immortal and is completely in control of his evolutionary characteristics. Using this ability, Creed has expanded his sensory abilities aeons ahead the capabilities of modern man. He is stronger, faster and more resilient than humans. He can recover in hours from injuries that would mortally wound regular men. His willpower and ingenuity are unmatched. There are few who can truly best him.
 
Paraphernalia: He has two soul bonded weapons chained to his body. They are shackled to his body by his perceived manifestation of his soul. A large, heavy caliber pistol is attached to his left hand. The gun is never empty, never misfires and is able to penetrate most manmade barriers. A sword is shackled to his right hand. The sword, like the gun, are nigh indestructible and can cut through almost any known substance. Neither weapon can be removed.
Psyche/Personality: Creed is a man of contradictions – he is excessively violent and will commit any atrocities that he needs to, to exact justice, but he is humanity’s greatest champion, willing to do anything to preserve life. He has slain countless opponents in his ten thousand years, yet he is charitable and gives of his all to those less fortunate. He is harsh and unwavering in meting justice and vengeance but would suffer before letting those around him be hurt. At heart, he is a loving and caring soul who will stop at nothing to preserve his world.
