Jessie “Stormy” Black
(AKA “Cipher”)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(BTW Jessie uses any pronouns but they/it are default)
So far, they were mostly created for my VBros AU that I'm making, and they are meant to be a polar opposite to Pete White and he met them after all the events in VBros Season 7 and the movie and they have a positive relationship. Jessie is a petty hacker and has a history of tampering with technology and computers but works at a Best Buy and is a skilled coder.
Jessie likes old games from the 70s-90s, Sci-Fi media, and has a bad sweet tooth, and loves a lot of candies or anything sugary. (Especially energy drinks!) And they attended Stuyvesant University around the same time Pete and Rusty attended State University during the events of the flashbacks of ‘Past Tense’. They mostly lived in Brooklyn, NY for most of their life. LOL
At some point had started its villain career in the 80s as ‘Cipher’ where they were and at some attempted to arch Captain Sunshine at some point and later on “retired”. And they happen to have some Guild connections but wasn’t registered because they wanted to “fly solo” and didn’t see eye-to-eye with them. But in the very late 90s and early 2000s they kinda rebranded their moniker with themselves being an online blogger where they have conspiracy theories and had dirt on “protagonists” and lots of lore related crap. So far throughout Cipher’s villain career, they were most anonymous and hidden underground in obscurity.
Stormy was meant to be a loose foil to Pete and it has ambition and is independent and claims not to need people. So far, they're each other's yin and yang and are two sides of the same coin but are able to balance each other out pretty well and developed a close bond. But the two are starcrossed but they still have feelings for each other but remained close friends and has a soft spot for him.
Their relationship is kind of like Daffy and Tina from Looney Tunes Show.
Meanwhile Stormy just became their own character while developing them. And them being an anti-villain is a lot of fun writing too. LOL
Tumblr media
Also Stormy used to have an online frienemyship with Gary/21, but IRL they’re good acquaintances but other are unaware and oblivious to their online personas bickering as each other’s friendly rivals. Meanwhile, they’re in the background and a regular person with a regular but witnessed weird shit going on in New York. LOL
Tumblr media
They do have a history with hijacking and tampering computers media stations, and tech, but they aren’t associated with the Guild. This character also has massive Riddler vibes (and Livewire) but just commits petty vandalism and just likes to troll people. Their arc is them having a balance with their double life and touch fucking grass for once.
