The Ubermensch

<snip>
After an awesome 80s movie style montage to ‘The Warrior by Scandal’ (as can be heard here) wherein the Dwarfers assisted each other across the room, hands grabbing wrists, comrade hauling comrade, sometimes amusingly falling the wrong way when entering new pockets of gravity, ending up the other side of the room than intended when walking through doorways they thought would take them elsewhere, and nearly slipping through the tears where the stairs had been blown away… they’d finally traversed the antechamber, and stood outside a huge, chunky, wooden double-door.

“That was hard work!” Jay grinned. He looked like he’d hardly broken a sweat.
Alex raised his eyebrows. “Yeah…”

Li’l Plisky pointed upwards and everyone looked.
Instead of an ornate mediaevallly engraving or plate, like they’d expected, a big sleazy neon sign flickered on and off.
The Chamber of Boridium.

(OOC-Lost the formatting on the "sign", use your damn imagination)

The mob of dwarfers pushed through the door. They stood on a small balcony suspended over a colossal pit of boiling blue liquid. "The chamber of boridium will create an ultimate character based on your personal attributes in real life, making your in-game avatar into...a super you!" Said the recently freed treaguard, who was sitting in a lawn chair next to the Dwarfers pulling golden bullets out of his chest. "Unless, that is you don't have a crew profile on Blue Dwarf, in which case I'll do my best...." Artemis stepped forward and looked down at the bubbling put."uh.....does it hurt?" "It's boridium a..." "No Mr. Treaguard, that's not what I asked, does it hurt?" "Why don't you find out" Treaguard kicked Artemis into the pit. The Dwarfers aimed their weapons at him. "Relax, I'm on your side. I'm just sore over getting shot" Understanding him completely, they backed off.

"OH MY GOD! IT BURNS! IT BURNS LIKE THAT TERRIBLE SHOW THAT GEICO TRIED TO MAKE ABOUT THOSE CAVEMEN! OH SWEET SCIENTIFIC THEORY IT BURNS!" Artemis screamed. There was a bright flash and his screams disappeared. "Dr. Artemis K. Pritchard VI, Chief Innovative Sciences Officer of the JMC-Blue Dwarf. Possesses 12 PhD's in varying sciences and non-sciences, an in-depth knowledge of science, inventor, father of numerous GELF species, notary public. Calculating ultimate-character" a computer voice announced. A blue orb rose out of the much and dropped Artemis onto the balcony. Artemis was dressed in gleaming white science attire with a regal flair. His skin glowed blue, as did his eyes. He looked...godly. "Whoa....this...is...amazing!" Artemis shouted, examining himself. "You're the Ubermensch, the ultimate man as theorized by Friedrich Nietzsche. You are the apex of human advancement, the testement to scientific development, and an amazing support class" Treaguard announced. "You possess incredible healing abilities, an immunity to negative effects, and the UberGun" Artemis pulled out a gun that bore a similar appearance to the MediGun from Team Fortress 2. "The Ubergun allows you to supercharge your allies with a whole array of special abilites, anything from immunity to supercharged weaponry. If you use it enough you gain ubermode, which turns the target into an Ubermensch for a limited time! You can also use it on more than one target if they are close enough" Artemis checked himself over one more time. "I could cry! I almost don't want to leave the game!" He said. "Who's next?" Treaguard asked.
