Getting reborn in another universe is a pretty shocking thing, right? But what is even more shocking is an otherworldly omnipotent being ripping you out of your world and offering you an adventure of a lifetime more commonly known as a Jumpchain, the being just teleported me to a blank space and gave me a futuristic-looking tablet with the words JUMPCHAIN INC in gold lettering, the content of this Jumpchain was surreal enough already, I mean I have done some Jumpchain spreadsheets in my "former"? life but not nearly enough for me to be considered an expert or anything of the sort.
Going through the content of the tablet I start figuring out what kind of character I want to build, I do have to be careful though because the ROB said this would be a test for me and after this jump, I could access the full Jumpchain Inc. experience.
*On October 10, 2012, on the American cable network, The CW, a show based on the DC fictional universe came to television screens across America and Canada. A fresh new take on a lesser-known hero, the Green Arrow, the show was a hit to comic lovers and average viewers alike. The success of the show was enough to have its own spin-off show, The Flash, which aired on the same network on October 7, 2014. The success of the two shows which share the same universe and the crossovers between them has spawned Vixen & Legends of Tomorrow. Along with the canceled NBC show Constantine, this television network adaptation of the DC fictional universe is dubbed 'Arrowverse'*
So, this is the Arrowverse, one of the coolest and annoying places to be and if I can get some speedster's power, I think I would pretty much be fucking overpowered. I don't have to be Barry Allen where he gets nerfed every fucking episode or gets stepped on by Iris and is basically eating shit left and right. No, if I had speedsters powers the first thing, I would do is to train myself to the limits and then going into the Speedforce for 6 months to improve myself obviously making sure to take out Barry Allen as I don't need all of the shit he stirs because he is not conscious enough of his actions.
*You arrive at your starting location when Oliver Queen arrives back in America after his presumed death. Alternatively, you may start when Barry Allen, awakens from his coma. You will be here for the next ten years, to help you on your journey here something has exited out of the Speed Force...*
1000 CP
Let's see what we can do...

Central City- Home of The Flash

None - You're the wild card, the joker of a deck of cards. You belong to no faction other than
your own. Perhaps they will call you a Legend someday.
Origins:
Philanthropist - You're a combination of rich, good-looking, and generous. Your funds are managed by a team of personnel, leaving you time to be the rich playboy. Who knows you might get to rub elbows with Oliver Queen. Or this could be a front for your vigilante or criminal way of life, or perhaps you wish to help your fellow man. You would not be the first rich person to dedicate their lives to helping with catching bad guys.
Age: 16 + 2d8 = 16 + 5 = 21
Sex: Male
Perks:
Movers & Shakers (100cp, Free None) - You're not part of any faction, but that does not stop you from knowing about things. With some digging and with reasonable accuracy you can tell whom the power brokers are in your local area, from the petty fence to a League of Assassin recruiter. How you deal with this information is your choice.
New Kid on the Block (100cp, Free None) - You're not part of any group but team you. Normally, this would make things difficult to make friends. However, by exchanging a little helpful information to another person or group of people, you will become fast friends. Should you choose to betray this friendship, which should only be expected as there is no honor amongst thieves.
Time Taught (100cp, Free Legend) – Time travel is real. However, the complexities make it a very difficult thing for most to wrap their heads around. Luckily for you, it has been ingrained into your psyche, either through re-education or just been around the block to know a thing or two. With this, you know the science behind it, the hazards that come with time travel, and how to avoid the hazards to the best of your ability. Lastly, you seem to be remarkably resilient to changes in your own timeline. Any memories you have of one timeline while another one is established; you will have memories of both timelines. Also, your infantile self is protected in a place & time where your enemies cannot get to, protecting yourself from being erased via infanticide.
Born Rich (100cp, Free Philanthropist) - You were taught the finer things in life at an early age, including the art of persuasion. You are a natural at it. When you smile, the room seems to light up and people are more willing to listen to what you have to say. You can convince a board of CEOs to make you the President, with a heart-filled speech and of course the winning smile. People tend to gloss over your minor negative qualities, like being a womanizing playboy. Even if you were declared dead for five years, your seat at the head of the company will be there waiting. Your name is on the VIP list for all the local clubs, you are incredibly good-looking and a smash with the sex you are attracted to. What is more, is that you give off a disarming personality. No one would ever suspect this is a cover identity.
Expert Driver (100cp, Free Philanthropist) - You like to live life in the fast lane, and your wealth has afforded you to play out your fantasies. Your formable years were spent behind the wheel of anything that goes fast. You have developed a sixth sense of a sort, on how to operate and man any motorized vehicle you can lay your mitts on. If that is not enough, you know how to safely pull off stunts with the vehicle that you are operating which you would only see in the movies.
Genius Business Savvy (300cp, Discount Philanthropist) - You're a shark in the board room and everyone knows it. You have the skills, portfolio, and connections to operate a Fortune 500 company. With a bit of effort, you can turn any company into a titan of industry rivaling the likes of, Kord Industrials and Queen Enterprises. You know exactly when to buy and when to sell, with such accuracy that in lesser circles you might be accused of insider trading. However, your reputation with the business community is impeccable.
World Famous Suburbanite (300cp, Discount Philanthropist) - Ever get tired of the shark pool that is Corporate? Despite being on nearly everywhere, you can expect a nice relaxing lifestyle in suburbia without disturbances. This applies to everything, despite how famous or infamous you are, as long you keep a fairly normal profile you will not be recognized. No one is going to question that you are any more than a normal person, doing normal things. The last person you would expect to be a vigilante, criminal mastermind, or an interdimensional traveler.
Powers:
Meta-Human - In 2015 there was an incident at S.T.A.R Labs, the experimental particle accelerator exploded sending dark matter throughout Central City. This reacted to certain individuals, giving them superpowers. Cheesy code name given to you by Cisco is optional.
Immortality (200cp) – This is a weird one, but you have gained immortality. You no longer age, and you are immune to all-natural poisons & disease. You also have superhuman regeneration with the ability to regenerate major injuries & lost limbs in hours, moderate injuries & crippled limbs in minutes, and minor injuries near instantly. Lastly, you get to cheat death itself! Well... just once anyways. Once per Jump you may die, even if your mortal remains are nothing but ash, and regenerate back to full health depending on the state of your remains.
SuperSpeed (300cp) – You have gained the ability to go super fast! Your physiology has been augmented into a lean-muscular frame well beyond the peak human condition. This lets you easily handle the rigors of your speed; you can resist high-level friction, inertia, air pressure, reduced oxygen, & kinetic impact. This allows you to run at superhuman speeds starting at 200mph, along with the agility and perception to match. This also accelerates your healing capabilities, healing yourself completely from injury in a matter of hours or days. Your ability to heal is unable to regrow limbs, but if you are fast enough you can reattach a limb to the stump before your healing factor heals the wound. Your speed is soft capped at Mach 40 at which point you find it harder to improve your speed without the serious time invested in training. If it relates just to speed, anything Barry Allen can do such as dodge bullets at just Mach 1 speed, or run up buildings & across the water, you can do it too.
Speedster (+300cp) (Requires SuperSpeed) – Need to do more than just speed. Now you have gained a connection to the Speed Force; a mysterious semi-sentient parallel dimension that gives Speedsters their powers. The Speed Force has given you more than just Super Speed for it has charged your cells with massive amounts of electricity.
When accessing the Speed Force, you generate electricity from your body, most noticeably trailing your body as you run. Also, you can share your immunity to the rigors of going fast by enveloping those that are touching you with the Speed Force. You can also vibrate can vibrate different body parts for various effects. This can mask you from being clearly perceived or distort your vocal cords to disguise your voice.
You can vibrate to forcibly expel any toxins that affect you. By vibrating, you can also generate great amounts of heat to recover & even be kept thermally insulated from extreme cold. By vibrating your molecules at the frequency of air, you can physically pass through solid objects. With training, you can do this with multiple targets, such as an entire moving train and hundreds of passengers. You can also harmlessly pass through living individuals. He can also pass through the highly complex objects in-universe that's vibrational frequencies differed from your own.
Alternatively, you can use this as a weapon bypassing your punch through a person's body, incapacitating them. Or by vibrating your hand and passing it through a person's heart or brain killing them. By vibrating at varying frequencies and with different levels of force, you can create small tremors and can induce extreme amounts of a jolt on any target you touch, even disrupt the intermolecular bonds, and cause it to shatter. Your vibrations can even shatter objects into fragments. Greater your speed the stronger the tremors are, to the point where you can create a small earthquake by moving at top speeds.
When you gain enough speed, you are able to pierce through the time barrier, space barrier & dimensional barrier. When you bypass the time barrier you may enter different points in time and arrive at a destination with pinpoint accuracy. You can do this in one of two ways; either enter timelines independent from yourself and unaffected by his travels or perform a time do-over, wherein your "merges" with your temporal counterpart to be fully immersed in the timeline.
Regardless of the changes you make, this leaves you unchanged allowing you to retain all memories of the previous timeline in addition to the new timeline and differentiate between the two. Through training, you will be able to "create" a time remnant by traveling back to moments before your current self-time travels, hailing from a future that no longer exists. This allows you to be in two places at once, enabling you to interact with the world for two separate actions simultaneously. If desired, you can create dozens of time remnants at once.
When you pierce through the dimensional barrier, you can break open portals between dimensions, allowing you to travel to any other universe within the local multiverse, including the main Earth called Earth One. If desired, you can also bring others with you. At first, you cannot consciously control this, but through training, you break open portals of your own accord and consciously chose your destination, even into the Speed Force itself.
Lastly, when you pierce through the space barrier you can open space breaches, enabling you to shift and warp about and appear out of nowhere to new locations. When combined with super speed, your actions can appear as if you are in multiple places at once by rapidly moving through these breaches to new terrain. You have become a conduit for the Speed Force itself, allowing the Speed Force to follow you throughout your travels. The Time Wraiths and Black Flash will not bother you. What is not known to a few is the fact the Speed Force is an intelligence that is existed since the beginning of time. It has taken a shine to you and should you spend six months within the Speedforce voluntarily, all soft caps will be removed. You will also subconsciously learn the Speedforce language, a language that conveys lots of information with just a few symbols, which when studied will unlock the ability to share speed with non-speedsters for a short period and/or take away speed from speedsters for a short period of time.
Gear and Items:
Flash-style Costume & Storage Ring (100cp, Free with Metahuman Power "Speedster") - High-tech frictionless suit made of vulcanized rubber. The style and coloring are your choices and it includes an optional helmet or cowl of your choice. Alternatively, you can choose street clothes that have the same functions. The suit is linked to an unhackable special program that monitors your vitals, speed, has an ultra-high-definition live camera feed, and allows for two-way sub vocal audio communication with anyone linked to the suit electronically. You may import any existing armor you own, and it will gain all the above properties. Optionally you can have a storage ring, which allows you to store your costume and helmet inside the ring with shrinking nanotechnology.

Kinetic Needles (200cp, Discount Philanthropist) - You have a container of over two dozen specialized needles that are attracted to kinetic movements. When released they will have a magnetic-like attraction to the source of kinetic energy. They are sharp enough to pierce flesh and lodge themselves into flesh and can be painful and dangerous to remove without proper medical care.
Drawbacks:
Horribly Picked Codename (+100cp) - Cisco has seen your abilities and has given you a pretty bad codename. Unfortunately for you, you are unable to change it or convince others to forget it. Everyone will be calling you by this name, even if you give them another.
Hellblazer (+200cp) - Your soul is damned, and Hell wants to collect. Throughout the course of your jump, you will be hunted by demons of various types. Every demon you kill will be replaced by a stronger demon of the same or different type. There will never be more than one, but you will always have one that wants the bounty and is willing to do whatever it takes to take you down. Hope your companions can take care of themselves.

Changes suddenly appeared in the Arrowverse with all the stuff he selected from the spreadsheet being applied in ways that destroyed the timeline as it was, the day Barry Allen woke up from his coma a portal from the Speedforce opened up and James was expelled from there but in a gentle way, almost like a mother would playfully push its child after a bad joke.
"Holy fuck, that was wild," said James after standing up and dusting himself off.
He started to pat himself down and found the objects he chose for this Jumpchain, those objects being.
· Flash-style Costume & Storage Ring
· Wealth
· Kinetic Needles
James put on his ring and found out it perfectly fitted him, he takes out his wallet and stores his black card containing 5 million dollars and also stored the container of the Kinetic Needles in the backpack that was conveniently lying around when you came out of the Speedforce.
Looking around James suddenly grabs his head as information about his background in this universe started to appear. His name is James Blackwood, he is a 21-year-old multimillionaire that recently moved his belongings to Central City. James in this world is basically a combination of rich, good-looking, and generous in this universe. His funds are managed by a team of personnel, leaving him time to be the rich playboy.
Basically, all his options in the spreadsheet seamlessly integrated into one hell of a character, as he finishes assimilating the information at scary speed courtesy of his new Speedforce infused brain he realizes why the surroundings are so quiet. He has been using the Speed Force unconsciously and it's making all things around him seem as if they stopped in time.
"I have to go to my company as soon as I can and get this new power under my control, I will control these powers, they will not control me," James said with a determined face as he takes out his cellphone and calls one of his many drivers to pick him up via GPS as he doesn't know where the hell he is.
