Finished my character ^^

CS [+]

Name: Ozias Wyatt

Age: 25

Appearance:

My Hider [+]

Personality: Ozias presents himself as a kind, reliable and dependable man. He tries to seem like someone who is willing to help you, as someone who can be a great friend of yours. Beneath the surface, however, is a man who only sees others as his stepping stone. He keeps up his façade in order to attract the people he needs and manipulate them to achieve his goals, only before ultimately discarding them after they have outlived their usefulness. He can switch between his façade and real, apathic self within moments.

History: Ozias was always the type that never accepted second place. This attitude was pushed onto him by his overachieving parents, who wouldn’t accept a ‘failure’ for a son. Luckily for his parents, Ozias was just as dissatisfied with giving the spotlight to others. He didn’t always succeed, oh no. There were many occasions where he was left bitter, defeated at what he attempted. Be it academics, sports or simple games. But These drove Ozias to try harder, because defeat was unacceptable.

As an adult he started to study medicine, as was suitable for someone of prestige. Through the years he had quickly learned that performance was very much tied to one’s contacts, however. No matter how much you excelled in studies, those with the better contacts simply got further In life. He had created his own ‘kind’ personality in order to draw people to him. He didn’t care about these friends in the least, but one simply needed these tools to get further in today’s society.

With the recent gain of his abilities and the city turned upside-down by crazed folk, Ozias simply seeks a way to profit as much from the situation as possible while safeguarding his own life. He figured that seeking some new ‘friends’ to cover him while finding out what is happening here would be a good way to start.

Shade Name: Flight of Verity

Shade appearance: FoV is a comprised of three components: Firstly there is an apparition that looks identical to Ozias, just slightly larger. This apparition is very defined in its features and even seems make itself appear to wear similar clothing. The facial features seem surprisingly detailed for a shade and depict a friendly, smiling face. Then there are two smaller shades, which seem to be about 20cm at most. These usually rest on the shoulders of the major shade. One seems to have an arrogant glare, while the other possesses an indifferent stare.

Shade Abilities: The two smaller shades are able to turn into two durable bladed arrowhead-like object about the size of a hand each. These are capable of freely moving through the air at incredibly high speeds. The speed and durability make these highly destructive. They are usually very capable of ripping through objects and piercing defenses in order to attack their intended target. They possess a high effective range, and therefore also effective for surprise attacks.

In the meantime, the larger shade usually hangs around close to Ozias. Unlike the smaller shades it is very fragile, only capable of taking between 1 to 5 hits depending on the attacker’s power, and has no offensive capabilities. Its arm movements seem to direct the arrowheads, but nothing is less true. The larger shade is simply a trick. It serves no other function than to give the impression that it is important and take attention away from Ozias, buy time, and take a few hits for him while the arrowheads attack the enemy.

The weakness of this shade is that the arrowheads themselves are still shades, and not simply projectiles. Therefore they sustain any damage Ozias sustains. Should Ozias take enough damage, their effectiveness will drop significantly. All in all, FoV is an extremely offensive shade with very little defensive qualities. This shade intends to quickly dispatch the enemy shade user before Ozias can sustain damage. This style suits Ozias well, for his time is too important to waste on squabbling.

@Morpheus297

Aye gotcha, ill make a note of that in the char sheet, but for reference Hotheaded pride and a bit of greed and an experienced fighter makes the dragon shade and his fire manipulation-physical power fit nicely.

Alright everybody, revised my CS.

Host CS [+]

Name: Rachel Lilian

Age: 26

Personality: Lilian is the type of lady to know exactly what she wants, and she can easily maneuver herself to get it. She's very smart and attentive, and can easily devise a plan to get in and out of a desired situation. For all of her 'go-getter' traits, she can be notably manipulative and draining. She has the tendency to swindle her friends, family, and acquaintances out of what she wants. Of course, she does have a shred of respect for certain people, but that could just be her realizing there are some people in the world you don't screw around with. Narcissism, reckless, and being coercingly manipulative are her most apparent negatives.

Lilian has no cares for random people, and focuses her (frankly short) amount of metaphorical fucks on only her closest friends and family. Lilian does do her damnedest in keeping her few 'allies' on her side. While you can certainly say her motives aren't the best when she does it, she'll get you exactly what you want or need before you realize you may need it, which is why she's surprisingly popular and respected in her small circle of friends.

Appearance: Lilian is somewhat tall for a woman at 5'8, and her shoulder-length pony tail of wine red hair is usually hidden by the hood of a jacket. She has an injured left eye, a bandage kept in place with a piece of cloth that wraps around her head. However, this isn't easily noticable at a distance due to her affinity for keeping her hood up at all times. She near always wears a baggy jacket over a simple t-shirt and a pair of track pants. Due to the amount of funds she has laying around, she could get clothes for a special occasion easily, she just has no desire to and probably wouldn't bother unless there was a pressing need.

History:

Wall of Text Incoming [+]

Lilian is the latest descendant of an accomplished military family, her father and mother being an airforce pilot and a juvenile psychologist, respectively. Her father, Richard Lilian, was mildly upset at first to get two girls, wanting a strong young man to continue the family tradition, but found some semblance of comfort when his youngest showed an interest in stereotypical boy's activities. Aside from her mild tendency to be 'one of the guys', Rachel had a standard childhood and set of teenage years. Her not-so-swell personality traits began to develop once she realized how gullible other people were in elementary school, getting out of trouble many times.

When she came of age, her parents funded her trip to college, and she was an utter genius in her major of engineering, getting a Ph.D just a scant few months before the recent events in Mercer City. As an honor student who worked very efficiently, she accrued a good amount of funds, and decided to take the task of actually finding a way to use her knowledge slowly and easily. Even though she was happy with the current status quo, she soon became distressingly, sheerly bored. She turned to her friends for suggestions, and what ultimately resulted from a meeting with one of her less reputable acquaintances was a morphine addiction, and a party to look forward too. At the day of the event, a mysterious wave of dark energy exploded across the town, and she ditched the get-together before it started.

On the way back, she began noting odd occurences. More people out and about then she'd expected, pedastrians acting weirder, strange apparitions that weren't there when she looked again. She slept it all off, but was awoken in the wee hours of the morning by a crazed burglar breaking into her flat. She fought off the intruder with a knife, yet the maniac had one of his own, and she was stabbed in the eye and actually injured for the first time in her life. After fending the man off and calling the police, she was rushed to the hospital, and began noticing one of the odd shadows from before following her around, protectively...

Now, thirsty for answers, she seeks out the source of this nonsense - Mercer City.

Skills:
* As evidenced by her well earned PhD in engineering, Rachel is adept at maintaining and constructing many mechanical systems. She could easily deconstruct a firearm or sabotage a car, not to mention construct simple objects out of common items.

* She can throw handheld objects quite far and with decent accuracy, due to some childhood experience playing baseball with her father.

* She knows how to wrap someone around her fingers and keep them there, as long as she has decent information on them beforehand. Without the information, the accuracy of her little white lies and the effectiveness of her sympathy-gaining stories decreases.

* Rachel has a surprisingly strong will, and she's cocksure of what she wants, when she wants it, and what she doesn't want. In other terms, she'd be hard to manipulate or take control of.

Other Information:
Rachel has roughly 40,000 dollars (USD) available to her, in two separate bank accounts from different banks.

Rachel has connections to both the criminal underworld and intellectual communities of Mercer City.

She lives by herself in an apartment that she pays for, near the edge of the city.

Rachel enjoys making money, spending money, creating graffiti where no-one would realistically find it, and prank calling people she doesn't like alongside people she does.

She'd never admit it, but she has an extensive collection of tiny multicolored horses that she's gotten a hold of both legally and illegally.

Shade CS [+]

Beware the Friendly Stranger

Name: Beware the Friendly Stranger

Appearance: Beware the Friendly Stranger shares the same general silhouette of its host, Rachel, being a somewhat tall female figure wearing apparently baggy clothes. However, its frame is shrouded by a 'pixellated' mirage, likely due to Rachel's affinity for lying. Steel thorns, akin to syringes, dot its shadowy surface, looking akin to a recent addition. For all of its 'darkness', it appears to still reflect light to some extent, brightening up the night when the moon is visible.

Powers: Beware the Friendly Stranger has a multitude of powers, all derived from Rachel's tendencies of lying, manipulating, selfishness, and recent drug usage.

* BtFS's primary offensive ability is its power to drain 'energy', metaphorical and actual, from targets in physical contact. To biological targets, such as a human or animal, it can erode its mental 'will to live' in one-half to three-and-three-quarter seconds of maintained contact, depending on the awareness of the target, and its will. To a mechanical target, it can consume electrical, mechanical, chemical, or kinetic energy to feed itself, causing it to temporarily move faster.

* BtFS, stemming from Rachel's manipulative tendencies, can cause hallucinations, false images, and incite desired emotions in targets to distract and disorient enemies, and to cloak itself and its master from enemy Shade users. However, its ability to cloak itself and its master doesn't work properly on non-Shade users, due to it being invisible in the first place, and it requires a recent feeding from a considerably energetic mechanical object, such as a car battery, or something moving very fast.

* BtFS, influenced by the highs and lows of an incoming morphine addiction, isn't hindered by a Shade's usual rule of mirroring damage. In simpler terms, Rachel can use BtFS much more offensively, since its pain and damage isn't shared to her as well. From the same ability, BtFS can recover from damage mildly quicker compared to others, but due to Rachel's own relative fragility, it is easier to damage in the first place.

Approve and I'll shove it into the character tab.
