BACKGROUND
Maverick was born to be a star...or so said his parents when he first started to sing. He was quite the happy boy despite been born in poverty. His mom was a very kind lady who worked as a clerk in a shop and his dad was the humble chef of a small restaurant. He had an older sister which was born blind. She would be the first person for whom he would sing no matter what. A very kind and very intelligent soul she was. Growing up, Maverick had a knack for having people following him around and listening to him. His words were always well received and he had a certain charisma that made others wants to follow his lead.
Of course, his natural talent didn’t go unnoticed and he was recruited by an Idol agency at the tender age of 12 years old, where he started singing and winning TV shows. He got recruited to play in musicals and even a movie where he was the lead star. Soon enough, his luck would have him rise above the crowd and with what money he earn, he could give his family a calm and relaxing life, one they all deserved deeply.
And for a time, everyone was happy, but the higher he rose, the further he got from the one he loved, as fans and people would want to get into his life, some for the best, some to have him fall to his end. It was part of his life too now. Despite all the troubles, Maverick just wanted his family to live a comfortable life, and himself, encourage by his sister’s words, wanted to get to the top of his art and move crowds into bliss. His voice, his dancing, his music, his everything, he would give to the world, if the world would follow him.
Maverick was now 21 years old and still kicking. He had fans around the world and the world loved him. What happened that day is still not quite clear in his mind, but that day, 1 year ago exactly, things changed...
It was on a World Tour, in the great city of New-York that Maverick was on stage, singing and dancing for the crowd, rifting a solo of guitar here and there while the crowd was in awe before his performance. Everything was going according to plan and he was about to enter the finale of his concert when something went awfully wrong. Something hit him, what, he didn’t know, nor anyone present could say either. The only thing he remembered was that he felt a sudden chill running along his spine, an intense pain that lasted barely a second, but enough to feel like an eternity and then a complete blackout. From an outsider point of view, people said that he was Struck by lightning and that he felt to the ground unconscious.
There had been no storm, nor lightning that day...and the concert was inside...so what happened? But since that day, it felt like he had a revelation. When he woke up in the hospital...a week later, things had changed, he was faster, he could do things he had never done before....he had superpowers. During his days unconscious, he had dreamed...a dream of peace, where everyone would be happy. But such a dream was utopic.
Perhaps there was still something he could do...wearing the mantle of a hero was meant for the face he showed to the crowd...he knew very well that the world was a lot more bitter then the songs he sang and the music he played...much much darker...and with these powers...perhaps, perhaps there was a way to balance it out...and so he would wear the mantle of the night, the mantle of a vigilante.
THE COSTUME
This simple, yet elegant costume is design to give protection while being stylish and give his wearer some camouflage in the city. The hood also hide a black clothing fullface mask that is see trought only by its bearer, fully hiding the identity of its wearer.
Maverick usually carry his costume inside a simple black sport like bag as to not attract too much attention. He carry it across his shoulder.
