HISTORY

Zbigniew Bielszowska grew up on the family farm in Ochaby, a small town in Southern Poland. Always the strong and silent type, Zbigniew would step in whenever he saw one of his fellow classmates being bullied. As a young man, he took a job at the massive shipping docks in Gdansk on the Baltic coast. His sense of fair play earned him a position with the dock unions.

Late one night, while unloading an unusual ship which seemed to have no Port of Origin, a chain broke which sent barrels of a strange glowing green sludge crashing to the ground, coating a nearby Zbigniew, who let out a howl of pain as he fell into the cold and icy Baltic Sea.

Waking up days later on a rocky beach in Finland, Zbigniew picked himself up and felt a surge of strength in his already-muscular frame. The strange slime had given him unnatural strength and endurance.

Polish dock worker and union steward by day, avenger of the oppressed by night (except Tuesdays, which is Dart Night at the Legion), Zbigniew uses his powers to defend the weak as… Kaptain Polska!

POWERS/ABILITIES

Kaptain Polska’s strength and endurance are many times that of an Olympic athlete. While never testing his abilities fully, Kaptain Polska has been seen lifting a Chevrolet Tahoe (about 5,000 lbs.) at an accident scene. Additionally, no one can recall seeing Kaptain Polska out of breath or tired, even after running long distances very quickly.

Kaptain Polska’s eyesight is enhanced, being able to see things both from a great distance as well as minute details close up. His hearing is likewise enhanced. In general, his physical abilities across the board are many times beyond those of a normal human.
