@Shard Just wanted to make sure you knew anything God is something that needs to be talked about with the Mods. I wasn't sure if you were going for that or not.

Seraph.

Hey folks, internet was a little spotty on my trip so I didn't have as much access as I thought I would. I'll be home sometime tonight.

@Abandonedintel Wait what? Where are you going?

I have made a post, on the last page...late as usual, but better late than never!

Blue Dragon [+]

Character you have created: Han Xia Wei / Viola Giordana
Alias: Blue Dragon
Speech Color (Actually say what you're using): Darkcyan
Character Alignment: Hero
Identity: Secret
Character Personality:
Graceful, dignified, and enigmatic, you would never guess that Viola wasn't actually human by looking at her, and not just because she's had so long to perfect her shape-shifting. Never one to stand in the spotlight herself, at least not on her own, Viola tends to take a more subtle approach to problems, using her influence, wisdom, wit, and occasionally her fists to nudge things in the right direction, or to help someone she believes is capable of fixing a crisis to do the right thing. She has a very positive view of the race that has unwittingly adopted her, and she sincerely believes that humanity is capable of greatness if given the opportunity. Her offhand approach to problems has gotten her in trouble, and she has often regretted fighting for a good cause under less capable leadership when she could have taken the reins, but she has held fast to her belief that humanity is essentially good and that they need to lead themselves. That being said, she does love to dabble in human culture and technology. She's tried to get close to important historical and scientific events with varying success, and she's sampled a bit of culture from everywhere she's been, regarding such esoteric subjects as Roman sculpture and classical music to be just as influential and fascinating as things like comic books and 80's hair metal.
Uniform/costume:

Vi's Natural Form [+]

Vi as Ayda ibnat Salnam al-Farsi, circa 1190 AD [+]

Viola's true form is that of a mermaid- or naga-like alien creature, standing about eleven feet tall. Needless to say, she usually spends her time disguised as a human, commonly looking like her persona in 1190 as seen above. Nowadays, she's adapted the armor as seen above with modern materials and a more bluish color scheme to serve as a superhero outfit. She's also included a helmet gifted to her by an emperor of the Tang Dynasty, similarly reinforcing it and adding a face plate over the mouth to hide her identity a little better.

Origin Info/Details:

Viola, as she currently calls herself, was born not in Italy as she currently claims, but in China during the height of the Han Dynasty. Delivered as an egg by persons unknown to Emperor Wu of Han, the creature hatched around the year 99 BC and was initially decried as a monster. While the court advisers suggested that the creature should be disposed of, the Emperor rejected this advice out of pity or perhaps generosity and kept the creature around. As it matured, it became clear that she was just as intelligent and capable as any human, and the Emperor took the creature into his family in secret to raise her. Named Han Xia Wei by the emperor's favorite son, who also liked to nickname her after the Azure Dragon based on her appearence, the creature soon learned of her shape shifting and incredible strength, using the latter to take on a human appearance in public. Aging far more slowly then expected, Wei was still just a child, albeit a mature and well-educated child, when the Han Dynasty collapsed and the Three Kingdoms period began in 220 AD. Disguising as a human with a new identity, Wei gathered a few friends from the old Imperial court and set out to explore the world.

Taking on many names and faces over centuries of history, the girl who would be today known as Viola traveled across the world, witnessing the rise and fall of empires and the discovery of fascinating technologies and new forms of art. Making sure never to bring too much notice to herself, she helped others to flee the sacking of Rome, fought in the armies of Saladin during the Fourth Crusade, explored Italy and Venice at the height of the Renaissance, and surreptitiously joined expeditions to explore the New World. Over this time, she also began to establish her own fortune, adding treasures and wealth to her stockpile in one life before willing it to her next one to build up some more. In time she turned her treasure trove became a business enterprise, and as the world became smaller and industrialized she began to use this wealth to benefit others as a businesswoman while still taking time to explore the parts of the world she hadn't seen yet. Today, she is living as Viola Giordana, the owner of the Italian company AzurCorp which is currently making land purchases and deals to begin expanding into the United States, a process which she is personally overseeing.

As for her being a super hero, it was never her first idea. She had on occasion done good deeds in a makeshift disguise before superheroes and villains became prominent in the world, but never often enough that she needed any sort of special identity. Ultimately, she decided that she needed to help protect humanity more then she needed to hide from it and began to craft a superhero identity for herself, to serve not just as a soldier but as a mentor and a protector for those who needed it. And thinking back to her days in Han China, and the emperor's son calling her the Blue Dragon, that superhero identity was all too obvious.

Hero Type (Select one): Shapeshifter/Muscle
Power Level (Select one below): City Level
Powers (Be Specific):

Shapeshifting: A natural ability of whatever species she is, Vi has the ability to change her form virtually at will (see weaknesses). Honed by centuries of practice, Vi can freely change from her natural form to her human form and change minor details about her appearance. However, she is limited to a generally humanoid form, meaning she can't take the shape and appearance of objects or non-bipedal animals.

Superhuman Strength and Endurance: Though she may not look it, Vi's alien biology has granted her an incredible amount of inherent strength and endurance. She can lift up to 60 tons quite easily and her punches can open holes in metal walls and launch cars quite a distance, should the need ever arise. Her body is also incredibly durable to most forms of conventional attacks, able to take on punches, blades, and even conventional firearms with little to show for it except an annoyed space alien who can launch you across the room for your troubles.

Several Lifetimes of Knowledge: In her impressive lifespan, Vi has picked up quite a few techniques and bits of knowledge from across human history. She's familiar with several forms of martial arts and combat, and is as skilled with a blade as she is with hand to hand combat. She's also well-versed in a variety of technical skills (though she prefers cultural knowledge to the scientific) and can speak nearly a dozen common languages, and a few dead ones, fluently.

Attributes (Select one at each category):

Height: Varies, normally 6 ft. 1
Weight: A lady never tells.
Strength Level: 60 Tons
Speed/Reaction Timing Level: 30 MPH
Endurance at MAXIMUM Effort: 4 Hours
Agility: Peak 'Human'
Intelligence: Genius
Fighting Skill: Mastered

Resources: Very Large

Weaknesses: Vi's superhuman endurance does have a specific vulnerability to one known material: meteoric iron. Making physical contact with the substance will burn her skin, and weapons made from meteoric iron will harm her just like a normal weapon would hurt a regular human.

Do you know how to post pictures on RPG boards?:

Character you have created: This time around, call me Charlie.

Alias: The man in the closet, The monster under your bed, The shadow on the wall.

Speech Color:

Character Alignment: Walk the Line

Identity: Known by all, known by none.

Character Personality:
Devilishly cunning, alarmingly charming, pleasant and polite. A banjo strumming, fiddle playing southern gentleman with your soul in his eyes. He's a devil in disguise. A man who works both sides just to see where your loyalty lies. A risk taker, a deal maker, a soul snatcher and a stunning dancer. He'll have you pouring a glass of whiskey and have you thanking him for the chance.

Uniform/costume:
A fine quality three piece suit of unidentifiable material. Pinstripe pattern with black coat and pants over a pallid white shirt. A solid black tie of impossible darkness and a pinstripe fedora. (Not a Trilby, an actual Fedora.) His skin is perfect and his race is ambiguous. Ask any man what he looks like and they'll tell you he's almost womanish and beautiful, ask any woman what he looks like and they'll tell you he's masculine and handsome. His skin color seems to change to match those he's speaking with, but those who observe him will see him as their own race as well. Multiple people observing him can't put a bead on him. The only hint that he's not human is that he's got a small pair of backwards curving horns hidden beneath his hat.

Origin Info/Details:
You've known his origin, but you've always wondered which is true. Did he betray the big man upstairs? Or was he once one of the big men upstairs? Did he betray his kind and was banished? Or was he just made this way? Charlie's always been around, wheeling and dealing and stealing since the beginning of time.

Hero Type (Select one):
Supernatural

Power Level:
City

Powers (Be Specific):
Hypnotic Suggestion: The unknowing or particularly weak willed are victim to his musical influence. Anyone who falls under his spell will obey his command unfaltering.

Dream Manipulation: Simple stuff, don't fall asleep around him. You'll see some crazy shit. He'll make you see hot hell and frozen tundra alike, you'll feel and sense everything as though it were real.

Immortality: He's always been around, he'll always be around. You can banish him for a while, you can break his body, but you won't be getting rid of him.

Wish Granting (With a Catch): He may grant any wish within a reasonable range of possibility, however, it will always go differently than you could imagine.

Soul Dealing: If he convinces you to give him your soul, he can take it. Simple stuff. You're not dead, nothing about you changes, but if he's got your soul you cannot say no.

Spiritual Medium: Charlie can speak with the dead, even invoking them through some ceremony to speak with others through him.

Sin Empowerment: When around those of particularly sinful behavior he is much stronger. Both physically and mystically, it becomes harder and harder to resist his influence if you are of evil heart.

Levitation: Simple enough, he can levitate as fast as he can walk. He has no maximum height, though it can be assumed he cannot make atmospheric exit velocity.

Long Range Doorway Teleportation: By walking through a doorway, he may exit any other doorway in the world. So long as there isn't some sort of barrier preventing his entry or exit.

Supernatural Musical Talent: He's got perfect pitch, can carry a tune in a thimble, can play any number of instruments at a time. (Seemingly grows extra arms to play them.) Plays any instrument perfectly and with a precision so far outstripping human that most would never stand a chance against him.

Instrument Generation: In a puff of smoke and a spark of flame he may summon any number of instruments into his hand or nearby himself. These are not particularly special instruments. Save for their perfect craftsmanship and tuning.

Attributes (Select one at each category):

Height: 6'3"
Weight: 178 lbs
Strength Level: 1 ton
Speed/Reaction Timing Level: 10x human
Endurance at MAXIMUM Effort: 3x human
Agility: 10x human
Intelligence: Genius
Fighting Skill: Mastered (But believe me, it's bizarre to see him raise a finger.)

Resources:
Large

Weaknesses:
Religious Iconography of Merit: Something of archaic semblance, blessed by the pope, angellic or legendary. An average every day bottle of holy water or a dollar store cross isn't gonna do much.

Musical Challenges: Charlie is, seemingly inexplicably, unable to resist a musical challenge. You pick the genre, you make the rules, and if the give and take is equal, he accepts your challenge. Remember, you must be willing to give as much as you wish to take, otherwise he refuses your challenge.

Supporting Characters:
None.
