You scramble for a new name to fit your warped appearance, mentally conjuring poor ideas as the moment hangs. Eyes begin to narrow as you struggle to think of one. Telling them that you don’t have a name and that you are new to this superpower business doesn’t seem wise. Grodd and Blackfire are big names with impressive feats; they could try to take advantage of your lack of experience and relatively untested powers. Killdozer sounds pretty metal; you remember watching a video of some man who jerry-rigged a vehicle by that name and had an anti-authoritarian streak. There is also Iron Man, which perfectly matches your appearance, you also think there was a song called that which you liked.
“I am Killdozer”, You reply, breaking the waiting silence.
“Well, Killdozer, have you considered putting some clothes on?” Blackfire retorts with an exasperated pinch of the bridge of her nose.
Your hands quickly dart down to your groin, covering up your shame and giving a weak smile. “Ah, yes. Can I borrow a pair of pants? I don’t have anything on me right now.”
Cleave gives a grunt and wonders off, hopefully, to provide you with something that fits. He is roughly your size, so maybe he has a spare pair lying around in this hideout. The awkwardness of silence returns as the members of this gang gaze at you, measuring and evaluating. Gorilla Grodd approaches you on all fours, and then stands bipedally as he comes to a halt, demonstrating the full extent of his height. If not for the stories the media writes about him, you would have never of guessed this animalistic mass of muscle has the mind of a genius locked behind those cold eyes.
“So, Killdozer, what can you do?” Grodd says in a voice that holds a hefty challenge in its tone.
Knowing that these kinds of groups formed by villains are famous for infighting and betrayal, you decide to hide the time power you possess for now. Not that you have fully come to understand it yet yourself. You answer simply, “I hit pretty hard.”
“Quite,” Grodd raises an eyebrow at your words. “And Kite Man said you wanted to join us. Is this true?”
