Description
Did some minor tweaking of Deathstroke's design for my Elseworld Universe. Also adding his backstory for this Elseworld Universe.Slade Wilson in this Elseworld Universe is a natural born military tactical savant who as a teen lied about his age in order to enter the military where he was able to establish himself as an elite covert black operative of the highest level.
Wilson’s combat and tactical skills earned him and fellow squad members a high success rate on many of the black ops missions that they engaged in as well allowed Slade to quickly advance through the commissioned officer ranks. It was while undertaking an advanced hand to hand technique combat course to keep his fighting skills at their peak that he became acquainted with the course instructor, Captain Adaline Kaine. The two struck up a friendship that developed into a romantic relationship and eventually marriage. Slade and Adaline would go on to have the first of two children in this Elseworld Universe, a daughter whom they named Rose.
The combination of Wilson’s mission successes, tactical brilliance, combat and weapons skills lead to his being tapped to participate in a military medical experiment to enhance the strength, speed, senses, stamina, intellect and reflexes of an individual in an attempt to create metahuman enhanced soldiers. Wilson undergoes the enhancement procedure and comes through it with the desired physical attributes as well as a seemingly less empathetic mindset and aggressive personality. Shortly after Slade underwent the enhancement procedure, he and Adeline would go on to conceive their second child, a son named Joseph.
After a year time frame of various trail missions to gauge the limits of his new enhanced abilities, Wilson was given an assignment to infiltrate the League of Shadows and attempt the assassination of organization’s leader Ra’s Al-Ghul. But during his infiltration of the group, Slade found himself agreeing with most of Ra’s Al-Ghul’s ideology resulting in his actually embracing a role in the League of Shadows. Slade Wilson and the League of Shadows fake his death in order to cut his ties to the military and his family and Wilson adopts the new masked identity of Deathstroke in order to operate as a League of Shadows operative. Due to his already impressive tactical and combat skills along side of his enhanced physicality, Deathstroke quickly establishes himself as one of the world’s most feared and deadliest assassins.
Several years later an operative from the League of Shadows’ rival offshoot, the League of Assassins, known as the Jackal discovered the secret of Deathstroke’s true identity and takes Slade Wilson’s family hostage, holding their lives as ransom, he attempted to force Deathstroke into completing his original military assignment of killing Ra’s Al-Ghul. Deathstroke rather than complying gambled his family’s life against the power of his meta-human abilities. He is able to kill the Jackal and the other kidnappers involved to save his family but Joseph unfortunately has his throat slit by the Jackal as Deathstroke delivers the killing blow to him. The results are Joseph having his vocal cords cut making him a mute. As they rush Joseph to a hospital to save his life, Slade is forced to finally reveal his secret identity and overall deception/secret life to his wife. The deception, abandonment of and endangerment to the family due to his decision to embrace the League of Shadows enraged Adeline who tries to kill Slade by shooting him in the face. Slade’s enhanced reflexes allowed him to dodge the fatal close range gunshot, but not enough to save his right eye. Having failed to kill her husband, Adeline keeps his secret in order to prevent further negative repercussions befalling her family by either enemies of Deathstroke or the military should they discover that Slade is not dead and is now the infamous Deathstroke.
Despite the lost of an eye, Deathstroke has been able to maintain his reputation as one of the world’s deadliest assassins and expanded into being one of the world’s in demand criminal mercenaries. His activities have of course brought him into contact with various law enforcement, meta humans, government agencies and criminal organizations across the globe. In this Elseworld his most frequent encounters with meta human/costumed heroes has been between Batman and Green Arrow but his recent activities with the H.I.V.E. have also made him an ongoing enemy to the Teen Titans. Slade Wilson’s actions as Deathstroke have also comeback to have an impact upon him in the form of his two children Rose and Joseph, as Rose has gone on to become a military mercenary/assassin known as the Ravager dedicated to destroying Deathstroke and Joseph has become the metahuman hero known as Jericho who has allied himself with the Teen Titans in their battle against Deathstroke and the H.I.V.E.
