Zod

Name: Jor-Zod

Aliases: Wants to be the new Superman.

Age: 26

Physical description: Jor-Zod is the spitting image of Superman, perhaps only looking ten or fifteen years younger and infinitely more dour. He wears a uniform of similar look to Superman's except that it is cut in the style of Kryptonian clothing and his chest symbol is that of the House of Zod, rather than the House of El.

Biography/History: Raised within the Phantom Zone, Jor was taught crime fighting by his father, the infamous General Dru-Zod of Krypton. Together, they spent his childhood hunting down and eradicating all of the Kryptonian criminals within the Phantom Zone. When the last of them was found, and Zod felt that Jor was ready, Zod had Jor take his life, and made him vow that it would be the last person he ever killed. After his patricide, Jor was expected to leave the Phantom Zone and go to the Earth to become its new defender. The New Superman, the Last Son of Krypton. Jor knows that he was named after the great intellectual and friend of his father, Jor-El, and he believes that he is the natural born son of Zod and his lieutenant and paramour, Ursa.

Powers:
Jor-Zod seems to have similar powers to Superman, although he glows with Yellow-Orange energy and fires Blasts from his hands rather than his eyes. He also is clearly nearly immune to energy attacks, but is more vulnerable than traditional Kryptonians against Peak Superhuman physical attacks. If he takes a high level of damage, his body will start to visibly flicker and crackle with yellow-orange energy.

Flaws/Weaknesses:
Jor does not have a weakness to Kryptonite.
Jor also seems physically uncomfortable when in direct sunlight, though that doesn't come up as often as the world is now a smog-ridden hellscape.
His greatest weakness is his inhumanity. Jor-Zod was not raised by the Kents, he was raised by a reformed Dictator in a dimension outside time and space, so while Jor has generally the same beliefs and values as Superman, he doesn't necessarily understand why he believes those things, and can become confused and frustrated by normal human emotions.

Though Jor-Zod does have other weaknesses, he hasn't learned of them in game yet.
