Name: Captain Synapse Power: Empathic- Ability to sense and control other’s emotions Mission: To rid the world of negative emotions and promote happiness Every morning, I wake up early in the morning. The alarm goes off at 4 a.m., so I can help those with negative emotions on their way to work. I get rid of all of the, “this is stupid/ I’m stupid”, “I can’t do this”, “I’ll never be capable” thoughts and replace them with positive thoughts. I wake up and eat a nutritious breakfast (reading minds burns a lot of calories and is exhausting) and then soon after that my iEmotion phone alerts me of those who are having negative emotions and leads me to them. I move from building to building, street to street to help those in need. I am constantly at war with my enemy Doctor Negativity who works to combat the positive thoughts I create and wreck havoc on the world through negativity. By the end of day, I am back with my family who have no idea what I do during the day. The next day it all starts again. Doctor Negativity’s mind is impossible to alter. Luckily, I have recently discovered that he has a weakness for puppies. Doctor Negativity’s powers fail when he is in the presence of a cute puppy, so I have devised a plan to make sure he is always in the presence of a puppy. I visit headquarters to alert them of the plan and to pick up Fluffy my new partner. This puppy is no ordinary puppy, it is a super pup. We inform Fluffy of his mission, which is to have Doctor Negativity fall in love with him and to never leave Doctor Negativity’s side. The plan works perfectly and after a few days there is no more negativity in the world and Doctor Negativity is spending his days playing with Fluffy, and he has even taken up a new pastime of helping save the animals of the world. My job may be much easier now, but I will always be on watch and will ensure the spread of positive emotions around the world! I started this assignment by using the Superhero name generator. I filled out the information and then got my name. I read the description of my powers and decided that my superhero should promote positivity. As I started describing the day, I came up with the idea of having a nemesis. I thought it would fun to have a “cure” for his negativity and realized that no one can resist puppies. I loved thinking about and creating a superhero that could change negative emotions. I thought it was nice to have a website pick my name for me because it allowed me to think outside of the box more than if I had just come up with a name. This story was fun to think of and also helped ease me into creating a character. Until next time, Emily
