Name: "Living Armor" Bak Tsarevna
Age: 15

Grade: Mephisto's, 1st Year

Biography: A student brought in by Mephisto to fill out the ranks, she was discovered in an extensively damaged far-flung town that was all but deserted save for Bak and her parents. Bak's problems had begun when she was just a small child when her parents had discovered odd growths on her back. Unable to afford a doctor and wondering whether these growths might be just a simple rash or some type of cancer, they experienced an odd combination of horror and relief when they realized that their daughter was growing a turret.

Over time, other parts formed. Armor here. A missile pod there. Her legs deformed, warping into a new shape to better support her great weight. She learned to fire her guns. People started calling her a monster. She learned to block out the sound with explosions. She learned to really like explosions.

She liked explosions so much that eventually everyone just up and left, then she realized life was awfully lonely when you didn't have any more friends to shoot at. So when she was offered a place at a school in the big city where she could make some new friends she jumped at the chance, despite not really attending school since she blew out the back of her kindergarten class.

Powers:
Built Like A Tank
Bak grows armor and weaponry out of her own body naturally. These are a part of her, act as limbs that she controls, and shares their senses with her (for example, the targeting cameras on her missile pod and artillery gun effectively act as additional eyes.) Because of the great weight these parts place on her she has advanced strength and durability just to be able to move, her internals essentially being either made of or enhanced with metal. This weight problem is the main reason she hasn't just covered herself in all the guns ever, because even her strength would be overwhelmed if she were over-encumbered.

• Self Modification - When one of Bak's parts is damaged beyond repair it must be shed and regrown. The length of time this takes varies based on how complex the part being regrown is, from a week (for something like armor) to up to half a year (for something as complex as a missile pod.) It only during this time that, through an effort of will, a growing part can be modified with different features or made to grown into something different.
• Ammo Generation - What is the point of having all these guns without the ammo to fire them? Bak is able to grow normal bullets almost instantly within the barrels of her guns, with larger ammunition taking only slightly longer (about two of my posts). Creating ammunition uses up her stamina, steadily exhausting her the more she had to create. Strangely, none of this ammo seems as dangerous as it should be. It will do as must property damage as the real thing, but when pointed at other humans it gets much weaker. It will still hurt and do damage, but even a direct missile strike from doesn't seem enough to kill someone outright. Her attack lack any true killing intent.
• Special Sense Share - If a piece of equipment Bak grows has a special sensor, she shares senses with it. For example, a thermal camera on a missile pod will allow her to have thermal vision or a radio will have the voice come in directly to her ear. If the part conveying the sense is destroyed Bak loses that corresponding sence.

Relationships: To be decided

The strangeness of The Vigilantes starts and ends with their leader, King. With King out of the equation, they’re almost like a club for extra activities. They take odd jobs from people and complete them, and on occasion they receive bigger requests. Sometimes those requests include closing gates made by the Ancient Evil, and also exorcisms.

Why exorcisms? Well, they're base of operations is a small church to begin with. Their first job was an exorcism an old man in the neighbourhood asked them to do. They've been very successful with them though. Ghosts are remnants of the souls of the Ancient Evil. They're able to manipulate them, but it's not as if they have the time to hop into our world to get every single ghost they can get their hands on. Being vengeful spirits who've lost their identity, they're not awfully strong. Still, they can't be hit by normal weapons or powers, so you usually bring in a specialist for these kinds of things. The Vigilantes are usually cheaper, so they'll opt for them most of the time.

Gates made by the Ancient Evil? Somehow, The Vigilantes have been able to stumble onto more gates to the Otherworld in their 4 years of existence, than many people see in their lifetime. Closing the gate themselves, while discouraged as far too risky for even high-schoolers, makes up a decent chunk of their income. Personal rewards can be claimed for closing a gate, so sometimes it can become a race between some of the bolder members of the group. The more reasonable or inexperienced members mostly stick to finding lost cats though.

To become a member of The Vigilantes is actually fairly easy. They have a website where you can apply to join them or post requests. You can also physically post a request by stapling it onto a message board they have in the church. It's open 24/7, and the priest doesn't refuse anyone.

Besides the presence of The Vigilantes, the Church has very little exceptional about it. The only other thing of significance is a small workshop.

They've been around for 4 years now, and won a tournament in their second year. In his third year, he clashed with Alto Ganze, and in the fourth year he only participated as a captain and not as a combatant. Their competitors thought it would leave the team much weaker, but boy were they surprised. It was more like they never knew how strong The Vigilantes truly were until King stepped away.

---

My thought process if you need an argument is that perhaps she's more invested because he's a fellow student at her school, so she doesn't want him to make them all look bad (worse?) and furthermore the fact that he SHOULD by rights be scared of her but totally isn't and ignores her authority just hits a nerve, whereas it makes sense that King wouldn't be scared. Maybe she also thinks he's wasting his talents or something. I dunno.

Name- Samoth Maskono
Age- 17
Grade- 3rd Year (Transfer) St. Laurels High School
Biography-
i.pinimg.com/736x/37/3f/59/373f597467…
Samoth is stands above average at 6 feet tall with tanned skin, and has a thin, yet powerful body. One could easily see his powerful muscles, if not for the black trench coat that fell down to his shins. He has light brown hair, and while he isn't wearing his camouflage ACU cap, it is held in a side parting, shaggy cut. He is often seen wearing black leather gloves around his family, and close friends(which he has none, atm).
Samoth was raised in a military family, yet a surprisingly un-strict one. But Samoth is strict enough with himself. He lived on a military base all his life, and was home-schooled, until transferring to St. Laurels as a 3rd Year student, at his parent’s request. Being surrounded by strong military personnel, strict tutors, and plenty of weaponry, Samoth is accustomed to violence. A controlled violence, but violence, nonetheless. He strives to perfect his fighting. With a strong body, and an equally as powerful mind, he began to train and research all he can to perfect himself. He studies unarmed fighting styles, armed fighting styles, and what information he could find on different magics, so as to prepare himself against any opponent.
His prefered style is Wing-Chun. Fast, efficient, explosively powerful, and it syncs very well with his powers. After studying for years, perfecting his mind, technique, and body, Samoth was capable of sparring against the military troops on base. And winning.
Now he comes to St. Laurels’ Academy, by his parents request. His purpose here is to further his magical knowledge, and his field experience in the tournaments.
He isn’t known to enjoy comedy too much, but can crack a sarcastic joke here and there. But consider yourself lucky if you ever see him express anything even relatively close to a smile. He isn’t looking to make friends, and can seem blunt at times. But he isn’t, by definition, rude. He is very focused on his studies, as well as any chances to gain combat experience.
One would describe his personality as stoic. He keeps silent unless spoken to, most of the time. But he watches everything. He analyzes fellow students’ behavior and habits, while sitting by silently until he has something to input. And when he does, people tend to listen. He also doesn’t appear to even possess a temper, as insults and slander fly right by him, without a reaction at all.
Powers:
Core: Magic Negation-
-Samoth’s core ability is Magical Negation. From his limbs radiates an anti-magic field. The field reaches half an inch above the surface of his skin, and dissolves any magic the touches it. But, the field only surrounds his arms and his legs. This field allows Samoth to strike things one normally couldn’t touch, for example electricity, incorporeal beings(ghosts,etc.), etc.. It also tends to allow his punches to ignore magical armor. Striking magical projectiles causes them to disperse upon impact with the magical field(he has to strike the projectile, it can't just hit his leg/arm). He can also cut through magic fields(such as shields) with swift, arcing strikes.
Lore- When shaking Samoth’s hand, it isn’t uncommon to feel as if your magical energies are draining away. Samoth can choose to disable Magic Negation briefly, but chooses not too. Because he likes that first impression.
Advanced Physical Traits-
-Samoth’s secondary power is advanced physical attributes.
This allows his punches to hit harder, faster, and more often.
It provides him with a noticeable Strength bonus, allowing him to overpower most, if not all opponents of his size in a straight-up frontal confrontation.
It also provides him a significant Speed bonus, allowing him to close the gap faster, and allows his opponent less time to react.
Lore- Samoth has a thin, yet muscled body. Compact, yet strong. But many are surprised by his explosive strength and speed.
Mild Telepathy-
-Samoth’s tertiary power is a sense of mild telepathy.
With this he can have a basic sense of what magic his opponent wields. For example, he can tell whether his opponent’s magic is based off of elements.
This ability also protects Samoth from any magic that attacks his mind. If Samoth focuses hard enough, he can send a shocking pain through a foes head, causing their vision to brighten severly, and blur for a moment.
Lore- When looking into Samoth’s eyes, you may feel as if something is stirring around in your mind, poking at the points of you that are your weakest. His gaze seems..knowing.
Newton Control-
-Samoth understands a great deal about physics, and can use this to manipulate his environment.
This power has many applications. The main use of this is the capability to control and manipulate gravity and force. Samoth can choose to increase or reduce the level of gravity in an area of his choosing, up to 25 square feet. Samoth trains within this field, causing him to have much stronger muscles, and allows him less speed reduction while affected by it. He can also increase or decrease the weight of physical objects. Another use of Newton Control is his ability to manipulate friction. By doing this, he can infuse his strikes with small bursts of flame. He can also warm up objects just by touching them.
Lore- Samoth’s enemies always seem to be unwieldy or inexperienced in using weapons, which people most accredit his wins to, unskilled opponents. But some can see a pattern..

Relationships-
-Alto Ganze: Samoth has respect for authority, where it is deserved. And Alto seems to deserve it. Being so young, yet so talented is something to be proud of. He gets along well with Alto, and seems to be quite protective of him, and respects his opinion, as well as most, if not all of his decisions as Student Council President.
-Clara Deimos Erdrigan: Samoth actually likes this one. Her personality is similar to his, and she is very focused on whatever task is at hand. Even being from a different school, he has no rivalry with Clara.
-King: Samoth does not like King. Not one bit. He does recognize that King may yield some power in the arena, but he thinks the premise of King being from another planet or being an alien, is entirely silly and immature. He would be insulted if King were to insist upon him that he was an alien, and would take it as an insult to his intelligence.
