Arrowverse for Blood of Heroes

I'm branching out from my usual 5e posts for today. Back in college, I played the Mayfair Games DC Heroes RPG a fair bit. It uses the MEGS system, which while isn't perfect, does a pretty good job capturing the Superhero genre. The rules still exist, now as Blood of Heroes. Not a lot has been done with it officially, but it's still getting published, and I recently discovered that there is still an active community of fans out there on the internet.

Anyway, I got bored and decided to start writing up characters from the Arrow & Flash TV shows, collectively known as the Arrowverse. Arrow has, imho, kind of jumped the shark, but I still really like Flash.

Here are the main archer characters from Arrow. I may or may not get around to other characters.
