Telepathy and / or Telekinetic's a good show. Phasing / Density manipulation's another one. Looking into some established superheroes can be a good inspiration and figuring out what part of their abilities you can think of new and cool things to use it for. For example, taking some of Firestorm's powers can be a good amount of fun, especially the transmutation part.
//Notes: • Birth name | Sabrina was born as just Song Sae-Hee, but was given the name Sabrina by her parents after considering the fact that an English name would help her fit in more easily after the move to the US.
• Nickname | She was given the nickname Supernova because she always glows red hot in a bright flash just like a supernova. Also, she's pretty powerful with all that force.
//Paraphernalia: • Her mobile phone along with a pair of head phones | She loves music way too much and having her phone to coordinate all her club DJ and modelling gigs is highly essential. It is not something she can do without and she is rarely seen without it. Listening to music on the go is a big thing for her and something she does often.
Appearance Details ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Sabrina stands at 5 feet 7 inches and weighs in at 128 pounds. The first facial feature you’ll recognise of her are those highly distinctive chocolate brown eyes that she possess. Her face is oval in shape, her nose pert, and her lips a healthy shade of pink. In times of happiness, darling little dents of delight appears on her youthful visage, the dimples ever present whenever any form of smile or grin makes itself known.
Her hair worn in a neat bob is a lovely shade of dyed blonde that complements her fair ivory skin very well. Her milky complexion boasts a hint of golden undertones and does have minor scars like healed scratches, cuts and bruises. Having been highly involved with several types of physical activities in her life, her physique is athletic and slightly toned, yet still retaining a decent amount of curves. Clothing wise, Sabrina style is all about trendy clothing, and has often be told that she is very fashionable.
She loves wearing sunglasses and baseball caps and she’s been told that she looks great in her choice of fashion. She can usually be seen wearing fashionable jackets, sweaters, printed tees along with pants, skirts and even the occasional dresses.
Personality ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Sabrina has always been more of the introverted sort. She has never been the type to show or express her emotions easily, but when she does, you’ll know that it is absolutely genuine. This also leads into the fact that she is not a talkative chatterbox, but that in turn also makes her a great listener. When she’s quiet, she’s observant. That makes her a great considerate friend to have, as you’ll always know that they’ll be there to listen to your rants and whines without judgement. It’s not exactly that she is always silent, it’s more that she is taking the extra time to acknowledge her thoughts.
She recognises what she is thinking and takes the extra time and effort to stop and reflect on it. This can work as a double-edged sword, but it is not something that she can change easily for a matter of fact. Sabrina is friendly and easy going, and is not a difficult person to get along with. She is usually polite and seldom rude.
She pursues an active lifestyle with plenty of energy to spare and likes to pursue anything that catches her interest and attention, and can often be found doing activities usually deemed for boys. She’s in the habit of proving that she’s just as good as them or better, and has proven herself in more than a few occasions in that enough of the boys have recognised her for the fact. Sabrina is also known to be incredibly stubborn and persistent, especially when it comes to doing this her way.
Sabrina does have a compassionate side to her though, and likes doing little things to show how she feels about her friends and loved ones where words would fail to describe how she feels for them. The saying actions speak louder than words is very much in tuned with how she behaves as she is not one who is very expressive. She prefers to show her appreciation and gratitude by actions instead of simply saying it. That means that each and every one of her emotions shown is sincere, and so if you see a smile, you'll know that she is genuinely happy.
Character Synopsis ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Song Sae-Hee was born in Seoul, South Korea on one of the coldest Christmas Eves in the nation's history. Her father was a regular salary man and her mother operated a dry cleaning store. She was born into a medium wealth family but the three of them were content and satisfied with their lives as long as they had each other for company. Sae-Hee grew up wanting little, knowing her family's circumstances, and thus lived a life not unlike any other child her age. Not long after she turned fourteen, her father was promoted and transferred to one of the company's overseas office in the United States. The family of three packed up and soon moved into to the city of Santa Celia. In an effort to make adjusting to the life and culture differences here in a foreign country, they gave her the name of Sabrina, and from then on she was known as Sabrina Song, the new girl from Korea to her school mates.
Several months after she graduated from high school, Sabrina's father died in a traffic accident, and the family was hit very hard by the loss of their beloved family member. The perpetrator was never caught due to it being a hit-and-run accident using a stolen vehicle, and his death was left unsolved as a cold case. Apart from having to deal with the intense grief, they also had to deal with the loss of income, since he was the main breadwinner since they moved over to America. It was during one of these grief episodes that Sabrina first discovered her powers. Overwhelmed by grief by the loss of her father, she broke down into tears and unknowingly let out a burst of energy which sent out a shock wave shattering every glass in the convenience store and toppling the shelves.
The store assistant cowering behind his counter was unharmed but was so freaked out by the whole ordeal that he ran out without looking back. She left by the back door of the store which was conveniently blown apart by the force as well, and no one was the wiser. The police would later find that there was to be no footage from the CCTV as a result of it being damaged by the blast that tore through the store. Overtime, Sabrina began to learn how to control her power and the consequences of letting unintentional outbursts happen, thus avoiding any unnecessary damage or loss of life whenever possible. Fortunately, luck soon came her way as she was scouted to be a model, and managed to get some form of success which ultimately led to more and more modelling gigs. She used the funds gained from these to fund herself through university and gave her mother a comfortable enough life to set up a small little business for herself.
Aside from her modelling gigs, which wasn't her passion, Sabrina got into the nightlife scene, and joined the ranks of nightclub DJs in the city pumping out hits and raves that entertained scores of crowds at the dance floors. She was invited to perform at dance music festivals which she did so with glee. She now primarily works at a highly popular nightclub called Vertical Altitude which plays regular raves.
Abilities & Skills ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
//Abilities:
Superhuman Ability | Energy Manipulation Sabrina possesses the ability to shape and manipulate energy from her body of varying degrees. At lower levels, she can expel energy sending a car flying away, crushing enemies against them. At higher power levels, she was able to level a two-storey residential home with a kinetic supernova. Sabrina can infuse the kinetic energy she harnesses with her physical combat to produce a potentially explosive combination. She can also use her powers in conjunction with a full body charge to attack strong opponents she is not able to defeat conventionally.
She can also use her explosive powers to cause a explosion capable of launching herself high into the air or forward into superspeed levels. She is also able to control the kinetic force spectrum, and energy field of her explosions, allowing her to create a concussive force field to shield her or others in event of an attack from projectiles or explosions.
Limitations | Sabrina requires a considerable amount of concentration and charging time in order to better control the size, shape, and direction of her explosions. The amount of time and concentration required depends on the size and the effectiveness of the explosions/manipulations. Kinetic Momentum also appears to play an important role in the overall force and direction of the explosions. The more kinetic energy she is able to harness while building up this energy, the less charging time she will require for the explosions as compared to a totally dormant state which would require considerable more time and energy.
She glows red hot with a bright flashy aura whenever she uses her power, and so missing her is not entirely possible unless one is literally blind. In dark areas, she sticks out like a sore thumb when she uses her powers. Stealth is not her thing. If you can't see her for some reason, despite her bright flashy glowing self, you can most definitely hear her whenever she uses her powers.
Weaknesses | While Sabrina can create explosions at different levels, she becomes fatigued at higher levels. After one particular incident where she used her power, Sabrina was temporarily dazed from the explosion she created. When she used her power that created that large crater as she levelled the two-storey building, she was rendered unconscious for several hours. Although she is invulnerable to the effects of explosions and kinetic energy wear-and-tear, she can still be harmed and killed by all other means.
//Skills:
Sound Mixing/Design | This is all about the essence of sound design, especially the type the kind of mixing a club DJ does, the mixing of music using MIDI controllers, Serato with turntables and more. With the wide array of equipment available in today's digital age, making dance music has never been more fun and exciting for everyone involved. With a passion for the musical art in her life, along with her educational background, she has honed to it a fine edge.
Martial Arts | Sabrina has been training in martial arts since a young age, and is a black belt in Shotokan Karate. She is well-versed in hand-to-hand combat and frequently augments her powers together with her martial art prowess to create a lethal combination that makes her into extremely dangerous combatant that is no one to be trifled with or underestimated.
Languages | Apart from English, Sabrina is fluent in both Korean and Mandarin.
Superhuman Ability | Energy Manipulation Sabrina possesses the ability to shape and manipulate energy from her body of varying degrees. At lower levels, she can expel energy sending a car flying away, crushing enemies against them. At higher power levels, she was able to level an entire scrapyard blowing up a large crater in the ground with a kinetic supernova. Sabrina can infuse the kinetic energy she harnesses with her physical combat to produce a potentially explosive combination. She can also use her powers in conjunction with a full body charge to attack strong opponents she is not able to defeat conventionally.
She can also use her explosive powers to cause an explosion capable of launching herself high into the air or forward into superspeed levels. She is also able to control the kinetic force spectrum, and energy field of her explosions, allowing her to create a concussive force field to shield her or others in event of an attack from projectiles or explosions.
Overall it's a very well done sheet I'd just like to lower her limits some. The tone of the RP is aiming to be something more in line with Marvel's Netflix offerings and so perhaps instead of leveling an entire scrapyard, we could bring that down to a small building such as a one or two-story residential home. Other than that, I like the sheet and her powers!
@Lord Wraith So, I've been stalking this since the interest check phase, but I haven't yet posted any sort of interest (mainly cause November has been pretty hectic for me). However, since it's nearly come to an end, if you're still looking for new applicants, I'd like to officially throw my name into that hat.
I might not be able to really work out the kinks of my character until next week at the earliest (depending on how quickly I speed through the final week of NaNoWriMo), but if it goes all according to plan, I can certainly get something up possibly by next weekend. If that will be too long, then I shall lurk from afar. If not, then just ignore most of what I'm saying. Lack of sleep makes me a rambling mess.
//Notes: • Religouse | Just as the rest of his family Christopher is a devout catholic.
//Paraphernalia: • Cross necklace | a simple silver cross always seen on his person regardless of his persona
Appearance Details ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Christopher stands at just about if ever so slightly shorter than the average man helping him blend in most of the time. His blonde hair is almost always kept short so that it won't bother him. He also believes it looks much neater and makes him more presentable when it is kept close to his head. Along with his hair, Chris also keeps his beard trimmed and makes sure it never gets too far out from his face. His dull blue eyes to most seem to hold no light in them. They seem like they belong to an old broken man or so he has been told multiple times throughout his years. But in the very rare circumstance that you could catch it you may be able to see a spark of light appear in his eyes as quick as a flash as they light up a bright blue, you could see the hidden drive to fight deep within. He has a more slender athletic build from his constant runs and his training that has kept him in good shape throughout his life thus far. This, however, is rarely seen by anyone as he most often than not wears Jeans and a long sleeve plaid button up with an undershirt to conceal himself. When he takes on his disguise he is seen in a custom made race jacket that is all blue with a large white X on the chest. He also wears a hockey mask with an inverted design on it
Personality ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Christopher Daniels is a kind person at heart who simply wants to help people and those that are close to him. These people are few and far between however since Chris is generally a very quiet person that tries to stay out of the spotlight as much as he can. He is a firm believer in the idea of keeping your nose down it most circumstances until it involves him. Oddly enough while chris is a very quiet person he is a bit of a hot head when it comes to certain subjects, mostly involving things like those close to him or his faith. Chris is normally seen in his family's auto shop working long hours during the day then spending his nights either hunting for criminals and thugs alike or hanging out with friends in one of the various bars around town.
Character Synopsis ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Chris was born into a small immigrant family that had moved to the U.S. from Scotland. He was born first out of three kids having two sisters and being the only boy in the family. Despite being the only boy Chris grew up being very close to his sisters and even at an early age was very protective of them. All 5 members of the Daniels family were very close and seemed to be the picture idea of a American family that was just trying to make it in the world. Christopher's father was a hard very old school man that expected the best of his children and accepted nothing less than the best from them. To most this would mean that their father was abusive are harmful nothing could be more untrue about his father. Their father while being a stubborn and hard man was very loving and simply wanted them to be better off than he was at his age and they could understand that. Chris took those lessons to heart as he strived every day to be better than his father so he could provide for his future family just as his father had. Once he turned 15, Chris began full-time work in his family’s auto shop helping to pay for the bills. It was on a normal workday when he discovered that he was special as it were. One day he and his father were checking on the car battery of someone's car who had come in that day. According to the meter in had no charge but as soon as Chris went to grab it, the meter shot up before Chris let go confused. Thinking it was just something wrong with the meter he paid no attention to the whole ordeal. But strange occurrences like these began to happen more and more as the weeks kept going. The last event that occurred before Christopher knew what he occurred when he entered the back room looking for parts. In the middle of looking he looked over at a spare battery that was sitting on the self and for some reason, he felt a kind of pulsing coming from it. Staring at it he began to raise his hand towards it. When he got closer he saw a bolt of electricity came flying out of the battery straight as him as his body contoured as if it was waiting for the pain of being electrocuted. This pain never came, however, rather he felt better than normal almost like he was fully refreshed. Looking at his hands he began to see little sparks flying between them as they meet between them. Snapping out of his near trance Chris looked to the side to see his father starting with an open mouth shocked at what he had just witnessed. Oddly enough his father had no problem with the idea of his son being one these ‘super-powered individuals’.
After making this discovery Chris began practicing his new found abilities and learning the ins and outs of how they worked. After almost no thought Chris new what he had to do with these powers that were gifted to him. Looking out at the city that laid before him he knew that he had to make a difference in the city that he had called home all his life or at the very least, die to try.
Abilities & Skills ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
//Abilities:
Electrokinesis | Christopher has the ability to control and create electricity. Most commonly this comes in the form of firing bolts of lighting out of his hands at his enemies. However then form the electricity and its entensity is depended on Chris and how much energy he still has. This could mean he could through a ball of lighting to explode like a grenade or cover his fist in lightning cause his fist to become tasers on steroids. He can also absorb electricity from nearby electronics to either replenish his energy or to slightly heal small wounds like cuts and bruises. Possible his favorite power is the ability to “skate” on things such as power lines and train tracks.
Limitation(s) | Chris’s powers while seem powerful require him to use energy in his body. This means that as he does more he begins to get weaker and weaker unless he can find something to get a charge from. If he absorbs too much electricity then he has to discharge it in some way or he runs the risk of becoming a walking explosive. At the same time if he absorbs too much he will be putting his body through severe pain as he is still not used to regulating that much power.
Weakness(es) | Quite simple water is a massive weakness to Chris. If Chris were to be covered in water or to be in a body of water then his lightning would also run through the water and strike him as well. while he is immune to electricity while he is intensely absorbing it, cases, where water becomes a factor, means he can't stop the lighting from traveling through it. Also because his powers relie on energy from him to use if he were to completly ehaused his powers then he would begin to expeince massive fatigue and if not given some kind of of energy to absorb he could face death.
//Skills:
Mechanic | spending years in a shop naturaly means you will pick things up as Chris has.
Supporting Cast ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Mainly his father Liam Daniels and possible the rest of his family in rare circumstances.
@sly13 I'm going to sound like a pretentious asshole for a second here, but your spelling, sentence structure, grammar, and word use are off in a lot of places and need to be edited. I should also note that the sheet's formatting doesn't seem complete as you have a couple headers modified to blue but others aren't. Additionally, your jacket image isn't correctly linked or something as there's just a weird image in that hider.
In terms of actual content, I was wondering if you could take some time and further flesh out his abilities further. Chris' electrokinesis is kind of described in broad strokes and I'd like to know more about how it works, what sort of voltage/amperage he holds etc. How exactly does he skate on power lines and rails, and perhaps a better description than 'tasers on steroids'. Your weaknesses also make no mention of insulators.
Once you've finished the edits, let me know and I'll give the sheet another read but I can't accept it in its current state.
I'm happy to announce the search for a pair of Co-GMs is over!
Allow me to introduce you to your new Co-GMs.
@Junkmail is our first Co-Gm and he will be helping me with character sheet reviews, offering his services to those who need help in fleshing out or improving their sheets. Additionally, Junk is available for post-proofing and will be aiding in approving the aesthetics of this place.
Our second Co-GM is @Hillan who will be overseeing crime in the IC having a specific focus on the development and consistency of the game's various gangs and mob. Hillan will be using his own character to push forward plots that are gang and mob-related.
Thank you to all who applied and all who have joined the game so far.

Anyone having any trouble finding a way to enter the game, deciding on what plot to join, in need of a general direction? I am here to help if anyone is stuck, so please let me know if you need it!
Maybe but it looks like cooperative plots are rare and we mostly do our own thing?
Edit: Oh shoot! Silly me! I mistook this for the other RP where I am in with you, Lord.
Haha, in the case of Ultimate One Universe you're very much on the nose, here though I'm trying to maintain some open plots for everyone though I'll also be having my own that people are free to wander in and out of as they interact with Ellara.
