Editing Victorian Justice League: Flash

A player character in [[Victorian Justice League: A Tale of Two Cities]].

__TOC__

'''Real Name:''' Bartholomew Allen

'''Profession:''' Consulting Detective

'''Backstory:''' As a boy, Barry Allen watched his mother killed by a strange blur of colours, and despite his witness testimony to the contrary, his father was hanged for the crime. Barry spent his life driven to prove his father’s innocence, and that of others falsely accused, and so became a detective - one who used science and “evidence” in his deductions.

During one case, the detective was called in to investigate a strange material known as “Cavorite” - developed in England prior to the Martian invasion, found now in America, in the laboratory of some scientist who’d been murdered. Barry had been called in to identify it, but when a bolt of lightning struck the laboratory, it moved through the chemicals and the Cavorite, and struck him! Recovering from the bolt of lightning, the detective found he had been changed - given powers to move with incredible speed, recover from grievous injuries, and other fantastic effects. He kept his powers a secret, but found them useful in solving cases - using the disguise of “Flash, the Accelerated Man” to protect himself and his family from retribution.

Since then “The Flash” found cases becoming stranger, with criminals using bizarre means or even powers as strange as his own - all beyond the abilities of the police to ever catch.
