The Tenth Story Poll (DC)(Round Four)
🕑 Added 2022-12-15 15:58:34 +0000 UTCAlrighty, with 70% of the vote, you guys pretty decisively decided on the Male OC option for this upcoming DC poll. Just to refresh everyone, that prompt will be this:
Male OC Option - Sexy romp through a comicbook universe with DC foundations but also characters from Worm and Overwatch thrown in for some added fun. Male OC that's not a self-insert but instead a Time Traveler from this universe's apocalyptic future. He didn't make anything of himself in his original life, but he has a second chance now after 'awakening' his 'true powers' upon death and getting sent back to before it all began.
With that out of the way, now we need to decide our Male OC's background.
I appreciate all the ideas I got last time, but I've settled on three options, basically.
1. Bruce Wayne's Bastard - Unknown even to Bruce, this version of our OC grew up without any of the benefits that could have come from being the son of one of the richest men in the world... to say nothing of Batman. He was always okay with that, but when he goes back in time with powers, will he be able to keep his distance from the father he's never had anything to do with?
2. Lex Luthor's Bastard - Very much known to Lex, the OC in this case grew up incredibly sickly and, by Lex's insane standards, not very smart. He did his best with the hand he was given, but that hand was a crapshoot from the very beginning. Lex did the bare minimum to keep the OC secret and safe... until in the end, he failed and the OC died, going back in time and gaining superpowers.
3. No One Special - The OC is not the kid of anyone remotely important. He's got no big name parent, no real dog in any of the over the top relationships between Heroes and Villains. He's got no connections, but he's also got nothing tying him down... at least at first.
As always, your feedback, ideas, and suggestions on any and all of these possibilities is greatly appreciated. What you think should happen if any one of them gets picked, what you want to see happen... all of it could potentially influence the story going forward!

After going back as Lex's son he needs to steal Mercy from Lex.
That black guy
For a interesting few Heroines/Villianess to throw in this character's way : - Indigo aka Brainiac 8, the feminine Brainiac . Due to Lex's relationship with Brainiac and the time travel aspect of Indigo , it could be a fun pairing narratively . - Supergirl is always a classic and you could go with the "batman/superman:apocalypse " corrupted by Darkseid supergirl. - Livewire , doesn't get as much play anymore but could be fun to see especially if he's able to tank her zaps - Natasha Irons/Steel .
