Black Fist

Real Name: Xavier Exley

First Appearance: 1999

Created by: Vito Delsante

Origin: Xavier Exley is the world’s biggest movie star. A multiple award winner, the most sought after actor in the world, and cover boy of a dozen different magazines a week. He influences studios, heads of state, and millions of fans internationally. If he wanted to, he could probably propagate world peace, but he’s more concerned with world pieces.

However... He's the best looking movie star in history with one (fatal) flaw! Exley’s right hand is, by all appearances, dead, with a sort of necrosis that covers his entire hand. It is also the source of his power. Exley’s touch saps life energy at a slow rate, but if he punches you, he absorbs that energy at a greater rate. Don’t fight the Black Fist; you will die!

Notes:

• In 2010, comic book writer Vito Delsante chose to create 35 new characters that he would voluntarily donate to the public domain. The Black Fist was #3 (although he's actually a character created by Mr. Delsante in 1999).
• The character appeared in Sage LaTorra's video game Syntax Error.

The open source character of The Black Fist, created by Vito Delsante, has been released to the Public Domain, and is available for use by anyone with only the following conditions: this paragraph must be included in any publication involving The Black Fist, in order that others may use this property as they wish, following the same rules as Public Domain properties. The main rule being that your version's story cannot be like the story of anyone else's version (meaning: you may not reference elements from the story you find the character in, because they belong to that story's author, and are not open source).

There is a "Black Fist" character listed on Comic Vine:

• .Black Fist. (Top Cow)

It's kind of generic, so I think it's still viable as an Open Source Character name.
