Strongman

Backstory
Alan was born in Oklahoma during the 1920's. He was raised by a loving family, even in the backdrop of the Dust Bowl. In the 1940's he became a soldier in WWII, but unwilling to kill even on the battlefield, he worked as a military paramedic. He was killed when he leaped onto a grenade to save the people around him.

Post-Resurrection
Alan joined the Miner's Union and saved up a lot of money, mostly contributing it to charities. When he needed to learn to read in 11992 NHE, the university gave him Superman's origin story as a reading assignment.

Strongman Begins
Inspired by what could be done with Superhuman Ability Modules, Alan purchased a SAM and registered at the local volunteer first responders guild. Though he stayed out of the spotlight, he eventually ceded to public acclaim after a friend convinced him to share his story with the world.

What makes a hero?
Alan still uses his human avatar. He's homely, with a chubby face and a mole on his left cheek, and not the brightest bulb in the box, but he has arms of steel (even before getting his SAM) and a heart of gold.
