Characters
His real name is Ben Gillman, goes by Soldier Boy. A tall muscular gruff looking man at a height of 6’1. He has overgrown brown hair and a gruff looking beard connecting to a mustache with green eyes. Born to a wealthy, neglectful steel tycoon, Benjamin felt like a "failure" after flunking out of boarding school. While leading the superhero team Payback, he was so physically and emotionally abusive to his teammates that they conspired with Vought to get rid of him. Payback neutralized him with Novichok gas and handed him over to the Soviets. For 40 years, Russian scientists conducted agonizing experiments on him to find out what could kill him. These experiments unknowingly gifted him new, radioactive powers. Soldier Boy is the embodiment of outdated, "alpha" male traits. He is arrogant, chauvinistic, and represses all emotional vulnerability, viewing it as a weakness. He suffers from severe post-traumatic stress triggered by Russian music, which often leads to him blacking out and involuntarily releasing nuclear energy. Has super strength, invulnerability, and radiation energy blasts, capable of obliterating humans and depowering other Supes.
His full name is William J. Butcher but goes by Billy Butcher, commonly being called by his last name, just Butcher. Butcher is a tall, 6’1, physically imposing man with a gruff and unkempt appearance. He is a former SAS operative and CIA vigilante driven by an unyielding, violent hatred for all superheroes, specifically his archenemy, Homelander who räped his wife, Becca Butcher, who went missing shortly after. This transformed his grief into a singular mission of revenge. Born in England, Billy and his younger brother, Lenny, were abused by their father, Sam. Billy tried to protect Lenny, but eventually ran away to join the British Army. While Billy was away, his father’s continued abuse drove Lenny to commit suicide, an event that left Billy with permanent guilt and a "burn it all down" mentality. Butcher is as charming as he is cunning. He uses others as tools to further his goals, often lying or using "brute force" to keep his team in line. He is the definition of an anti-hero who often crosses the line into villainy. Butcher—famous for his crude, foul-mouthed vocabulary.
