Brian Gatewood Sr.

Origin Story

He had a rough youth, went through juvenile detention, and came out with little hope. Determined to change, he vowed to become the mentor he never had. That resolve awakened ancient nanotech robots which bonded with him. The robots’ power tested his will, but with compassion and wisdom he tamed them and became Changemaker. Now he uses his powers and past to guide young people towards hope.

Primary Ability - Neural Ink

Neural Ink is a swarm of nanotech atom sized robots infused in his tattoos and hair that spread over his body as living armor, morphing into shields, tendrils, or tools and granting him strength and resilience. It absorbs negative emotions to defuse conflicts. If it takes in too much anger or despair, the nanotech grows unstable, forcing him to use all his willpower to subdue it.

Secondary Ability - Dreadlock Neural Search

Dreadlock Neural Search lets Changemaker inject a tendril of Neural Ink through a dreadlock, launching an algorithm that scans a person’s latent dreams and talent routes, projecting a vivid vision of their best self. Hope floods in, cooling anger and lifting allies nearby. Yet if Changemaker’s own faith flickers, algorithm’s complexity increases leading to longer scan times and weakened effects.

Ultimate Ability - Neural Core Bridge

Neural Core Bridge releases nanorobots from Changemaker, weaving a 6G neural link that channels everyone’s hope into a shared surge. It links divided people both physically and emotionally, turning chaos into collaboration as everyone feels a shared purpose. However, this interlink requires immense concentration from the Changemaker and will only form when there are more than 3 people.

Head Quarters

Changemaker’s Hub – a former Tacoma nightclub repurposed as a youth center. By day it’s a safe space with a barbershop where nanotech robots morph into barbers, providing haircuts as well as counseling. By night, its back office becomes a command post to watch over the city. It isn’t a secret lair – the center is openly run by youth, a collaborative sanctuary echoing Gatewood’s real community hubs

Arch Enemy #1 - Shadowmonger

Shadowmonger is a gang leader who preys on vulnerable teens with promises of “family,” only to exploit them for crime. A twisted mentor figure, he is a dark mirror of Changemaker: where the hero guides youth toward hope, Shadowmonger steers them into violence and despair. He undermines Changemaker’s outreach, dragging youth back into darkness whenever the hero tries to lead them into the light.

Arch Enemy #2 - Chainmaker

Chainmaker embodies the zero-tolerance justice system that traps youth in cycles of incarceration. A grim enforcer draped in chains, he turns minor missteps into jail time. Convinced punishment is the only answer, Chainmaker scoffs at Changemaker’s compassionate approach. His mission is to keep the “school-to-prison pipeline” flowing – locking up young people before they can get a second chance.

Arch Enemy #3 - Nullifier

Nullifier is a tech‑zealot archaeologist who has hunted lost civilizations’ tech for centuries. He covets Changemaker’s nanorobots—keys to his quest—but his main crusade is “saving” youth by purging emotion: implant chips, drug minds, enforce icy peace, trading free will for order. He mocks empathy, making his emotionless utopia the dark mirror of Gatewood’s hope‑driven healing.
