Nice to see you Bobo!

Thread is now open!

Yay! Expect a post, but question, how would I jump in as merc?

Its really up to you! Maybe you could open with the end of a contract you took, or meeting with a client and declining a job for some reason. You could also try and start some interaction with other Mercs, because you all at least know each other. Maybe you need information about some side contract, and you call up another Merc to pick their thoughts?

Alright, thanks, expect post soon :)

I imagine a lot of the other supers would be wary of your character though, Boboclown. No one likes the guy who is a walking power dampener.

A good point IVlasterJay, but being a mercenary complicates it. Having him on your side would be a great blessing, while having him against you would be a curse. Having history with people is a big deal with Mercenary types in fiction, so it's up to him and others how they react.

Yeah, but that doesn't stop him from getting allies. Because of that dampening ability, many supers would probably choose to be in his side rather than the enemies, to avoid having him as an enemy

@McFazzer: I'd like a bit more information about the weight storage. Does it store based on time weight? So if he walks around at 1/4 of his given weight, for an entire day, he would store up 4.5 million kg, assuming he gains 52.5 kg/sec? Is it by minute? Hour? And when he spends the weight, how long does it last? It doesn't need to be perfectly accurate, just so I can have a rough estimate. Also, we have room on the Heroes and Corporate.

Yes weight is stored based on time and weight. Although it ends up as a net loss. If Adrian walks at 3/4 weight for one day he would have 6 hours of 1/4 additional weight, alternatively he can have one instant of tenfold weight or 12 hours of 1/8 additional weight. So yes theoretically he could gain 4.5 million kg from walking around at 1/4 weight for a day, but it would be for barely a noticeable amount of time, enough time to fall through a buildings floor maybe, but not much else. In time he night get better mileage, but at the moment it's a net loss. Does that help?

McFazzer: I'll accept it. Just don't do any ridiculous shenanigans though. I'll also need your faction.

I will have a CS up tomorrow morning. I'd finish it now but I just drained.

@McFazzer, ferromancy?

Name: Hana Jameson
Alias(s): Neoteris
Age: 25
Affiliations: Heroes
Description: She’s short, standing at only 5’2” and curvy, her body just the right proportion of body fat and muscle for her to be considered ‘hot’. That said, her face, while pretty, is enough to make her cute rather than beautiful. Her blue eyes are usually full of an impish humour, and her hair, blonde, is left long and straight. Her choice of clothes as a civilian is fairly average for her age.

Her costume is simple, a cat suit that covers all of her body, there is a short skirt at her waist, at the top of which is a utility belt, her sleeves have small, slim pouches on them, and there is a . It is copper in colour, but otherwise mostly undecorated, albeit with a stylised Triskellion emblazoned across the chest in silver. Her face is completely covered by a mask of the same colour as the costume, with a mesh area around her mouth and nose, and the top left open to leave her hair free. Her eyes are augmented by the visor of her mask, a set of separate lenses that are connected to the rest of her headset, and most of her equipment.

Powers: Hana Jameson possesses a parcel of abilities that all combine to make her far more of a threat than her diminutive size would otherwise suggest. The first one is perhaps the least well known, due to its relatively low impact effect. Hana is always at peak human condition, no matter what she eats, how she exercises, she is always at the very peak of human fitness, agility and strength.

The second ability is her most noted, and that is due to its occasionally impressive physical effects. Hana is an inventor, a developer of fantastic technology, apparently in defiance of modern restrictions. This allows her to create compact forms of common technologies, as well as creating some other, far more advanced technologies such as blasters and advanced gyroscopes. Simple compaction of technology, such as communicators, is relatively simple, and she can create and maintain a number of such things without too much exertion. However, the more advanced the technology, or the larger it is, the harder it is for her to maintain or create more equipment. This means she can help by equipping teammates, but doing so reduces her abilities to intervene directly with more powerful pieces of technology.

Skills: Krav Maga, Kickboxing, Wadu Ryu, first aid trained, computer programming
Equipment: Motorbike, Utility belt containing wrist ties and a first aid kit. Various knick knacks and gadgets depending on what she was working on at the time.
Ranking: B

Brief History: Neoteris has a successful career behind her as a cape, one that only seems to be rising, if the records are accurate, then she has in fact been pursuing this career for a little over ten years, and her skills have only improved in that time. She has achieved a number of impressive collars in that time, including an SS ranked parahuman, though it put her in the hospital for six months. She is also one of the most experienced capes in Los Angeles, despite her young age compared to some, and is offered respect by even more powerful heroes in other cities.

Nosuchthing, send me the story behind beating the SS Ranking, please.

Name: Victor Sageas (Crest)
Alias(s): Lupus
Age: 27
Affiliations: He likes to dance the lines of good and bad, he will help his fellow mutants and kill any human who would dare threaten them. He could most easily be classified as a merc.
Description:
He is always in this costume, on occasion he will be seen with a trench coat and cowboy hat on over it.

Powers: Capable of tapping into his primal instincts, he is also capable of enhancing his physical characteristics. He is gifted with canine like prowess, enhanced smell, sight, and hearing, he also has larger canines and longer stronger claw like finger nails.
Skills: He is an above average fighter and marksmen.
Equipment: None of any importance.
Ranking: C Rank
History: His history is a blur and will be slowly explained through posts and such.

Name: Rozalia "Roze" Éathliel
Alias(s): Nightingale
Age: 24
Affiliations:The Heroes
Description: Unable to find a decent image, sorry:
Stands at about 5'7, with a toned and slim - yet curvy - body. Piercing blue eyes, set in a pretty, heart-shaped face. Black curls reaching about her shoulder-blades. Pale skin, some small scars dotted here and there from past skirmishes.
When in costume, her face and hair are obscured by a face-mask and hood, like this:

And her armour is black, covering most of her body, along with fingerless gloves and a cape - yes, she likes the cape. When not being a superhero, she'll wear normal clothes.

Powers: Energy Manipulation and Manifestation - she is able to manifest a type of pure energy that she can manipulate in different ways - she can channel it into a shield, use it as a weapon, or even make it solid to lift things, etc. The only limitation she has in this power is that overuse can lead to harm to herself. Otherwise, she's capable of a lot of damage.
She also uses this ability to help her fly.
Skills: A master of sword-fighting, either single-handed or duel wielding. Is an effective hand-to-hand fighter, and can survive in pretty much any dangerous environment.
Equipment: Two short-swords with serrated appendages on each side - she channel's her energy through these titanium weapons to make them super-light, and far more powerful.
Ranking: I'd say maybe a B-Rank, I guess? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Brief History: Roze lived a simple life in Italy up until her teenage years, when her powers began to show. Although managing to hide them from the government, other, more nefarious people, got wind of it. Tracking her down to use her for her powers, they slaughtered her family as they helped her escape. Now living in America, she has agreed to join the Heroes (Someone else can decide how they all met.), but the thought of those men still after her makes her mind drift to certain un-heroic things, such as vengeance, and murder...

More like mistborn Feruchemy.

With some coinshot allomancy.

@StephenRouse I can do Hero if you like

Theeeere we go. Posted, and went ahead and started an interaction. >.> Mist and Anon, now able to talk. Why? Because plot and character interaction defy logic! Of -course- two crazy superhumans have the chances of parkouring in the same neighborhood at the same time in viewing distance of one another in the massive city of LA. What do you -mean- it's irrational? Silly.

Alright, I'll see about posting later on today.

Hey, if I wanted to make a character, who, because of powers, was a expert in stealing/sabotage and infiltrating facilities, would that be a corporate or merc?
