Hi, I am Khoola,
I am here to submit my entry for the #psyberxcharacter creation contest by @bobthebuilder2.
Here is a link for anyone else who wants to join 😁.
CONTEST-12,500 LVL in Awards (about 68.5 Hive at time of post)
Character
Name: Burl Arj
Age: 28
Occupation: Salaryman
From: The Great City
Title:
- The Drifter
Weapon(s):
A five-shot, double-action large-caliber revolver produced by Lion Armaments, firing a powerful .50 caliber cartridge.
A unique single-shot grenade launcher that can fire a wide variety of ammunition.
Character description:
As for looks we decided that it is Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury of the Marvel Avengers. Minus the eye patch 🤣.
Attire: A dark brown trench coat, a maroon button-up shirt with dark slack pants plus leather shoes.
Extras: Seeing PsyberX characters has cybernetic headgear. Will go for one but not a helm type but more of like a mask.
Background story:
Burl Arj was an ordinary salaryman in the utopia that is The Great City. Everything changed when an unknown spacecraft suddenly covered the entire sky of the city.
Chaos ensued as a rain of laser fire devasted everything. But from the ashes, a few survived and formed a resistance, among them is Burl.
After a year, humanity is already facing extinction. The war is lost. Burl and the rest of the freedom fighters have nothing left to live for... but revenge. In a last-ditch effort, they took the experimental Anti-matter bomb and made a suicide mission into the heart of the spacecraft.
They succeeded but they paid a terrible price. Hope was not lost. Inside the alien spacecraft, they discovered an ancient technology. A life-like orb that can create a wormhole which can tear through time and space.
The orb attached itself to Burl's grenade launcher. Seeing that, they already decided to sacrifice everything for one last mission. Burl will travel back in time and save The Great City.
But Fate had other plans instead of going back in time before the invaders came to The Great City. Burl ended up in Zeelis.
Now Burl must find a way back and being the next master of Zeelis looks like a good lead.
Author's Note
I made a short story on how Burl ended up in Zeelis it is posted in The Ink Well Community of Short Story Writers. Just so to make you interested in reading it. This story made it to the Ink Well's Highlight Magazine and was awarded a @curie vote.
Here is the link to the story: Welcome to Zeelis
Note: This story is inspired by the Citizens of Neoxian

I love it! I'm working with the Ink Well on a potential future contest with them, too...to be determined... :)
Thank you sir 😁
Seriously, there's a difference between people who know how to tell stories and those who wriye stories. You my friend do both so effortlessly, I love this narrative, like a movie it was.
Bravo 👏🤗💜
Thank you! I wouldn't say effortless... I give as much effort as your LMAC entries :)
Definitely Khoola, no doubt. Just saying even if I give same effort I wouldn't write this well. I'm that bad😂
Lovely narrative👏
Awesome story mate hope Burl can find his way back and change the course of history.
Go get em Burl
Thanks Drabs! I am sure he will! He is awesome after all!
Great story. Goodluck in the contest.

Hello @khoola. An interesting post-apocalypse story. I like your approach on how you chose the protagonist, together with appearance and weaponry.
I think you have the makings of a good sci-fi adventure.
