Sportsmaster:
Unmasked:
History: Sportsmaster and his wife, Paula once worked together as assassins; He used to do freelance work for the League of Shadows. During one mission, Paula took the fall for both of them. She ended up in prison, and in a wheelchair. He raised his two daughters, Artemis and Jade, but the latter ran away because he was emotionally and verbally abusive. This made him determined to make an assassin out of Artemis, teaching her many skills, including archery. Sportsmaster eventually moved on to greater responsibilities as a personal enforcer for hire. He has had a working relationship with several other villains, including Professor Ivo, Icicle Sr., Riddler, Deathstroke and more.
Sportsmaster was aware of Artemis's life as a hero, and subtly tried to undermine her standing with her friends through heavy implications of ties to him, so she would join him and Jade in the life. Her subsequent betrayal struck a bitter cord, and Sportsmaster aggressively pursued Artemis in an attempt to "discipline" his "errant" daughter. Her past was found out and she was not expelled from their number. A part of him was furious, but maybe a small part, the part that loves her is almost accepting that she's found a place to belong. In spite of a very strained relationship he does work with his older daughter Jade, who is know known as the villainess Cheshire.
In the new world he was approached by a man called Liquid Snake, who was gathering dangerous men to form a new mercenary team. Sportmaster was invited due to his unique talents and he readily accepted once money was discussed.
Powers: Sportsmaster possesses no known superhuman powers. Rather, he is a highly trained martial artist and is able to use a wide variety of weapons.
Physical fitness: Sportsmaster's fitness is at least to the degree of an Olympic athlete. He is trained in several sports, including javelin throwing, fencing and pole vaulting. He can also leap higher than a normal human his size and age.
Agility: Sportsmaster is surprisingly fast considering his size and age; he was able to dodge weapons fire from multiple Manta Troopers without injury.
Pain tolerance: He has taken punches from an armored Black Manta during a disagreement, without any exclamations of pain.
Hand-to-hand combat master: The combination of his size, strength, reflexes, and skill in hand-to-hand combat makes Sportsmaster a fearsome melee combatant. He singlehandedly took out several bodyguards, easily evading strikes from behind, and countering their attacks with throws, spin kicks, and knee jabs. The force of his attacks is strong enough to knock out grown men with a single blow; he managed to knock Aqualad off his feet, spinning him with a clothesline move.
Acute senses: Sportsmaster has trained his senses to the degree that he can sense Miss Martian when she is using her camouflage ability, when no other person noticed her.
Weapons master: Sportsmaster efficiently wields a large variety of sports-themed weaponry, each modified for higher lethality. His deadliness is augmented by his acute senses and strength.
Multilingualism: Sportsmaster can speak English, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese and possibly many more.
Sportsmaster uses a vast array of Olympic-themed weapons alongside his physical capabilities to give him more variety and flexibility when in battle. His weapons include, though are not limited to:
Catatonia drug: Sportsmaster developed a powerful sedative that leaves its victims catatonic for weeks.
Discus: A disc that can be hurled and disarm an opponent. He also uses collapsible variants with flashbang and explosive properties.
"Hammer": A heavy metal ball attached to a cord and handle. Sportsmaster has this hidden in one of his pockets. Upon landing on the floor, a small crater is created. Despite its weight, Sportsmaster can easily swing it around.
Javelins: One of his most frequently used weapons. These can be used in hand-to-hand combat, as well as thrown causing an explosion on impact. Furthermore, the javelins can be set to explode at a certain time.
Knife: A standard fighting knife.
Pole: To perform high leaps in the fashion of pole vaulting. With this pole Sportsmaster was able to leap high enough to land on a roof.
Saber: A sword for fencing.
Weaknesses: For all his skill and talent he is still human. And as estranged as he is he will look out for his kids, even if it is for twisted reasons.
Trivia:
- He has one proviso for his allies: No harming his kids. If it comes to it, that's HIS duty.
- He likes playing knife games with Kano
- Not a fan of Madcap.
