#ALIYAH STOCKMAN. / VERSE 006. RISE.

VERSE: RISE OF THE TMNT.

➤ Takes place in the alternate / new future post-ROTTMNT movie ( although thanks to time travel shenanigans being a thing, it's still possible to interact with them in the main timeline ! )

➤ The existence of mutants has always been something kept relatively under wraps, although their presence had been gradually known over the last few years as sightings became more common and, likewise, more public. However, the Krang Invasion wound up being the incident that caught the attention of the Earth Protection Forces; along with capturing any remaining Krang, they were made aware of the existence of mutants through the turtles. Rather than viewing them as heroes who rescued Earth, they viewed them as potential threats that needed to be dealt with. Thus began their study of mutants and, more importantly, how to counteract them.

➤ Over a decade following the Krang invasion, an older BAXTER Stockboy STOCKMAN, who never exactly outgrew his grudge towards the turtles, would eventually join the EPF and, subsequently, the study in how to deal with mutants, soon becoming responsible for figuring out to develop an anti-mutagen. However, in order to create one, he would first need to reverse engineer the ooze required to create a mutant, as well as a mutant subject to test on. Thus, he wound up creating The Stockman Mutants.

➤ ( Then, of course, you know how this goes: he gets attached, realizes he can't commit to the bit, etc etc. TLDR; the Stockmans are eventually no longer under EPF's control after Baxter decides to take 'em under his wing. )

➤ Likewise, the EPF has become a force to be reckoned with and a notorious antagonist to mutant-kind as a whole. Their reach has grown a little too long for comfort and will only serve to steamroll not only the mutant population but the population of any non-human being at the rate that they are going. Thankfully, there are plenty of people who are looking to stop them from doing so.

➤ SUPERFLY is, of course, the oldest of the Stockman Mutants, possessing the ability to manipulate machinery and electronics. This not only includes tampering with pre-existing machines but also being able to create machines within a matter of seconds so long as there are objects nearby with which he can create them from. Out of their little team opposing the EPF, he is actually only second-in-command. Yes, if it is just him and his siblings, he takes charge; however, he can't boast about being a leader. That title instead goes to...

➤ ALIYAH STOCKMAN, who is Baxter's niece and, essentially, the cousins of the Stockman Mutants. Having learned about them and practically grew up with them from a young age, she now both leads them against and tries to protect them from the EPF. Albeit a perfectly normal human, she is far from incapable even against bigger-than-life threats. In fact, she is often the first to charge into a battle ( to which her cousins sometimes have to get her out of said battle ), possessing a vast amount of courage against enemies several times her size. Thanks to both Superfly and Baxter's tech, she possesses many devices that can assist her, including one that can essentially 'summon' the Stockman Mutants via teleportation at the drop of a dime, meaning they will never be too far from her to aid her.

     CUE ALIYAH CAREFULLY pondering this for a solid 30 seconds. “ . . . We talkin’ regular-sized marshmallows ?  Twelve is my PB. “ Believe it or not, she’s had plenty of practice for such competitions. After all, she’s tired of getting her butt whooped by her larger, more ravenous mutant cousins.

" HEY...

HOW MANY MARSHMALLOWS d'ya think you can fit in yer mouth at once ? "
