Real Name: Brandon Thompson
Alias: Barrage
Sex: Male
Age: 14
Height: 5'5''
Weight: 118lb
Abilities:
  • Expert Marksman - Brandon was born with an innate ability to throw or shoot anything with uncanny accuracy. He quickly gained some fame as a sharpshooter in the online world, and was sniped by world class baseball teams to play in their junior baseball league, where he gained even more fame for his ability to break bats with his record speed fastballs. He bounced around different sports including Ping-Pong and Ice-Hockey. He later settled on Archery, and was soon contacted by Clinton Barton (Hawkeye), asking him if he would rather use his talents for good rather than fame.
    In terms of natural talent, Brandon is no doubt one of the best archers in the world; but still lacking in the extremes of skill and form. He's unable to place and knock multiple arrows at once at different targets; something his mentor is famed for.

  • Peak Human Physiology - Brandon is in very good shape for a boy his age and height, although not set to break any olympic records. His possible future in professional sport had him training almost every day and eating a specialised diet to improve muscle growth and effectiveness. He can bench press about 235lbs; strength needed to operate a longbow. He can run 1.5km in just under 4 minutes and function at almost peak capacity for about an hour and a half.

  • Adept Hand to Hand Combatant - As a result of his athletic gifts and extreme hand eye coordination, Brandon was quick to pick up hand to hand techniques far beyond his years of training. He is considered 'adept' but with much room for improvement. He's capable with strikes and locks, although struggles to employ throws against people significantly heavier and larger than him.
Equipment:
  • 'Focus' - Brandon's main weapon is his compound bow. It was adapted from his own Junior-Olympics bow, and was reinforced with sturdier materials so it could withstand impacts from enhanced and superhuman without instantly snapping. The reinforcements make the bow a surprisingly effective club. With his composite bow, Brandon is able to fire just over 2 arrows a second and it has an effective range of about 300 yards.

  • 'Butterfly' - As a back up for if anything happens to his main bow, Brandon carries a collapsible, self stringing bow that he can hide in his boot or pocket. It takes about 2 seconds to arm, and has a significantly shorter range than that his compound bow.

  • 'Death From Above' - In some situations Brandon carries with him the components to construct a huge longbow that he is able to use his feet and arms to fire, or with the assistance of another person. It has an incredible range, able to hit a stationary target a quarter of a mile away.

  • Quiver - Not unlike his mentor, Brandon employs an arsenal of arrows and trick arrow heads that he can switch out at a moments notice. He has been developing ideas for his own, but is currently stuck with what his mentor will give him.
    • Sonic - Emits a high pitched 95 decibel sound 2 seconds after release.
    • Explosive Tip - Contains a composite plastic explosive that detonates on impact. (Small grenade)
    • Smoke Bomb - Emits thick bilious cloud of chemical smoke 2 seconds after release.
    • Flare - Contains magnesium / iron powder flare that ignites 5 seconds after release.
    • Tear Gas - Releases concentrated cloud of lachrymatory agent 5 seconds after release.
    • Acid - Contains a bulb of concentrated nitric acid that bursts on release.
    • Suction Tip - Tip is covered with a micro-adhesive capable of sticking to almost anything; Fit with tracker.
    • Cable - Contains spool with 50 foot length of cable which unreels through shaft.
    • Putty - Contains a bulb of highly stick putty which bursts on impact.
    • Bola - Releases three small, heavy balls on steel bables to entwine target.
    • Electro - Generates a 21,00 volt charge on impact.
    • Net - Release 10 foot wide cable net through end of shaft.
    • Rocket - Contains a small solid fueled missle head with enables transportation of payloads of up to 2lbs.
    • Extended Shaft - Enables an arrow be shot with more power and distance, and from Death From Above.
    In addition to trick arrows, Brandon does carry 4 types of steel arrowheads; flatheads, broadheads, bodkin points and blunts.

  • Utility Belt - Although maybe not carried in his belt, Brandon may at any point potentially be carrying a plethora of tools and contingencies.


    • Weaponry - A number of throwing knives and needles, a weighted boomerang.
    • Eye-Lens - Enables night vision and magnification.
    • Rebreather - Capable of filtering through most toxic gases, and even water.
    • Medical Kit - Well fitted with plasters, dressings, bandages and other aids.
    • Filter - To turn sea-water and urine into drinkable water

  • Skateboard - Brandon uses a skateboard to get from place to place because he isn't old enough to drive.

  • Flicker Arrow - A highly advanced arrow that is capable of downshifting in mass to the point of intangibility for short bursts. It uses a camera sensor to detect the first obstacle in its path flight and from that, calculates the duration for which it should remain intangible. This enables it to bypass forcefields and other barriers.

Abilities:
  • Stage V Marksman - Brandon was born with an innate ability to throw or shoot anything with uncanny accuracy.

    • Fletching - Part of Brandon's training is how to quickly forage and identify materials used to create arrows and bows. If given enough time, Brandon could create some basic arrows, as long as there were materials available. He could even create another longbow if he had somebody around to string it for him.

    • Medical Kit - Well fitted with plasters, dressings, bandages and other aids.
    • Filter - To turn sea-water and urine into drinkable water
    • Tools - To repair his bow and arrows, and potentially make more.

  • Skateboard - Brandon uses a skateboard to get from place to place because he isn't old enough to drive.

Limtations:
  • Durability - Despite any skill and luck on Brandon's side, he is ultimately still a human. Anything that would disarm and take down a normal person is very likely to be successful on Brandon. Part of his training is not to wear any protective armouring; to try and encourage movement and evasion rather than trying to soak up damage.

  • Experience - Brandon is undeniably highly skilled, but lacks much experience in actual hero-work and is not mentally prepared for active field duty. Hawkeye himself has commented if he was not so young and immature he would likely make an Avenger by his 15th birthday. He is actually fairly close to his mentor in skill, but lacks the decision making skills and instinct that only comes with experience.

  • Age - Most students of the Defender's Academy average about 17 years old, however Brandon is only 14 years old. No amount of weight-training would allow him to physically overpower the average fully grown male. His short stature and short arms disable him from using the same size Longbow as Hawkeye, capable of generating far more piercing power and speed than his own Composite.

  • Arrows - Brandon does not carry an infinite amount of arrows with him. His seemingly inexhaustible quiver would eventually run dry if he was not able to resupply. His fletching skills would sustain him somewhat, but he isn't likely to be able to replace any of his trick-arrows.
