History: William Stryker is military man for the United States with a connection to the Weapon X program. After he retired from the military, he married and had a son named Jason. During a drive in the desert they had an accident in the Nevada desert. He knew that his son was a mutant since he was so disfigured. Distraught, William killed his own son and wife and attempted to take his own life. But his suicide attempt was thwarted when the car exploded, tossing him away from the flames. He became convinced that God had saved him from suicide so that he could serve him on Earth. William believed that God allowed his son to be born a mutant so that he would be guided towards his true calling, to lead the war against all mutants. He strongly believed that mutants were the spawn of Satan and must die.
With this new mindset, William became a very controversial and popular preacher and televangelist so that he may spread his hatred to the masses. Unknown to the public, he formed a secret paramilitary organization called the Purifiers. This group of mutant haters was far more violent than the Friends of Humanity for they committed murder and other violent acts against mutants. He even kidnapped the mutant known as Kitty Pryde and attempted to kill her on live television. One of his own men shot him and the authorities arrested him before he could carry out his crime. William was sent to prison and the Purifiers disbanded.
After he was released from prison, William discovered the location of a time traveling sentinel called Nimrod. He tapped into the robots memory to learn of an event that would one day change the world of mutants forever. This event was the near complete destruction of mutants. With this knowledge in hand, he reformed the Purifiers and gained even more human supporters for the cause. Together they plan on eradicating the world of Satan's spawns.
RP Sample: ”The time has come my brothers and sisters. A great evil is upon us! This En Sabah Nur, this Apocalypse, is the foulest of creatures spat from the gullet of Satan. I warned the world that this day would come if we did not take action against the mutant scum. Instead of listening to me, the government imprisoned me for doing the work of God! Had I been allowed to continue carrying out God's work, this would have never happened! But fear not my friends. This evil will not last now that your guiding light is free. We must ban together so that we may RISE UP, and cleanse this world of this evil and all like it! What say you my brothers and sisters? Will you carry out God's work so that you may one day thrive in Kingdom of Heaven?”
The crowd of people were in an uproar rallied strong under their leader, William Stryker.
”To the millions of you watching at home. I want you to get on your feet and take back what is ours. Take back our homes, take back our schools so that our children may live prosperous lives in peace! Take back our neighborhoods using any means necessary! Now is the time. NOW.. IS.. THE.. TIME!!” As the crowd cheered him on, William Stryker raised his fists with a devious smirk. The Reverend, was back.
