History: Sevine discovered her powers at the young age of 8 when her father tragically passed away. Chaos ensued at his funeral when she lost control of her emotions and nearly destroyed the church and all those in it. Her mother was distraught and disgusted at the display of power. Her mother never was one to care for the lives of mutants. She decided to send Sevine away to a concentration camp for mutants, called Never Land. It was here she was deemed useful for their studies and was experimented on. As she grew older her powers grew stronger and she was deemed dangerous by the program. Instead of killing her they locked her in a room, where she was kept until her mid twenties when she found an opportunity to escape.
Sevine has been on her own and on the run since.
Story Arcs: [TBD]
I might need help with this, I'm returning to writing after being on a hiatus for 5-6 years and am having trouble coming up with ideas, but am very interested in joining. I will try to finish up my character sheet myself but am open to suggestions.

Name. Loki Laufeyson
Alias. Agent of Asgard, God of Trickery, D.B. Cooper
Age. Approx 1050 years old (1st incarnation)
Place of Birth. Jotunheim
Powers.
Frost Giant Physiology: Loki is a Frost Giant, though he has been enchanted with an Asgardian appearance. This gives him a greatly enhanced condition, including superhuman strength, endurance, agility, speed and reflexes. He was able to handle the power of an Infinity Stone without being harmed, and tanked blows from an enraged Hulk. His speed is especially noteworthy: Though his strength may be inferior to the likes of Thor or the Hulk, he still moves shockingly fast, able to catch Hawkeye’s arrow midair and outmanoeuvre opponents stronger than him to gain the upper hand.
He also possesses an accelerated rate of healing: While he cannot instantly regenerate, the rate at which his body repairs damage is greatly increased, allowing him to walk off injuries after a short period of recuperation.
Additionally, he is immune to extreme cold temperatures and the freezing touch of a Frost Giant, though being exposed to these will temporarily dispel his enchantment and reveal his Frost Giant appearance.
Sorcery: Loki is a master sorcerer, taught by his adoptive mother Frigga from an early age. His command over magic is nigh unrivalled, with even Odin being impressed by his spellcasting abilities. His control over the arcane manifests in a variety of ways.
Illusionary Magic: Loki’s favourite form of magic, illusion magic specialises in trickery and deceit to fool the enemy. Loki can create incredibly detailed illusions, changing his shape, clothes and voice to expertly mimic other people and even other species, such as frogs and snakes. He can fake death by conjuring imitation wounds, and can conjure basic weapons like daggers and spears to attack with. Loki cannot use this ability to escape restraints, however, though he can use his illusions to make it look as if he is unrestrained.
Additionally, Loki can create duplicate copies of himself. These duplicates cannot interact with the real world, and anyone who attempts to touch them will phase right through.
Loki can also use trickery to appear as though he is invisible, obscuring the ability to perceive him in any way from even the all-seeing Heimdall. He is not actually invisible, however: It is simply a trick of the mind. As a result of this, he can choose how he appears, appearing to just one person or appearing to everyone but being unable to be captured on recordings or CCTV. However, making his presence known by interacting with someone physically will break the spell, and his reflection will still appear in mirrors and other surfaces.
Mind Manipulation: Loki can hypnotise others to varying degrees. He was capable of subtly influencing the human Eric Selvig to do his bidding, and could even cast a spell on Odin to influence him to leave Asgard. Like real hypnosis, however, he cannot simply command someone to do something: He must make subtle suggestions to steer them in the right direction. With physical contact, he can delve into the memories of others, reading their minds and forcing them to relive memories.
Conjuration: Loki can enchant items and summon and de-summon them at will. Most commonly, he uses this ability to arm himself with daggers. However, he has also used it in the past to summon the Casket of Ancient Winters and the Tesseract while they were in his possession.
Telekinesis: Loki can manipulate objects with his mind, capable of lifting and scattering objects. Objects he manipulates with his mind are shrouded in a green hazy aura, much like his illusions when they are dispelled or interacted with. He has even held up part of a collapsing building with this power, and rocked the foundations of his prison cell, scattering objects all around him.
Weaknesses:
Though strong, Loki is often outclassed in a straight fight, and must rely on his magic to gain the upper hand. He is also quite arrogant, which can be manipulated against him by those that can match his cunning wit.
Loki’s illusions are simply that: Illusions. They cannot harm anyone or influence the real world, even if they appear to be able to.
History.
Loki had lived a long life, and he was acutely aware that his death was fast approaching. Indeed, as his Chitauri invasion began to crumble around him, it seemed as if Loki’s number was up. Then it was the business with the Dark Elves, then it was that debacle with Hela, then he’d heard Thanos was up and about once again. Loki revelled in danger, of course: He lived his life on the edge, and would his cunning escapes be so daring without such a lofty consequence for failure? Still, Loki’s love for winning was matched perhaps only by his hatred for losing, and it was of utmost importance that he took care of this whole “dying” business quickly.
It was a dark ritual, forbidden in Asgardian culture. Hela had conjured it up with blasphemous intent, a spit in the face of everything Odin’s faithful believed in. But spitting in the face of everything Odin’s faithful believed in was Loki’s modus operandi, and he got up every morning with blasphemous intent—a dark spell to defy death and reincarnate himself was really nothing out of the ordinary. So the ritual was sealed, and as Loki breathed his final breath onboard the Statesman, his soul soared towards the universe…And came crashing back down to reality. He was reborn in a new body, youthful and with a neck that remained mercifully unsnapped. Of course, he was trapped in the vacuum of space now, but he was over the moon that the ritual had actually worked—the Asgardians who recovered him, however, were less than enthused.
For so vile a sin, Loki should have received no mercy from the Asgardians. However, acknowledging his good deeds alongside Thor, as well as the circumstances of Asgard, his punishment was scaled back. The Asgardians were exposed in this new world, needing desperately to establish a solid foothold on Earth and show humanity they were a proud, stable nation, not in danger of collapsing in on themselves against a stiff breeze. Thus, it was necessary to imitate the strategies the world’s superpowers used to get to the top—and, after brief analysis, they concluded that the number one strategy to success was to simply spy on everyone. So, they needed a spy—and who better than the criminal pleading for a lesser sentence?
Thus, Loki became an agent of Asgard, acting at the behest of the Asgardians. It was his job to identify potential threats to his people, eliminating them before they became too great to handle. He’d infiltrate the enemy and learn how best to defeat them, infiltrate potential allies and learn how best to win their favour. If he didn’t, then he would be hunted by the elite guard of Asgard, and thrown into a cell to live out the remainder of his foul life.
Understandably, Loki was not too thrilled with this arrangement. WIth his newest assignment being to investigate the mutant nation of Krakoa, however, it may finally have been time for him to break free and do what he was always meant to do—cause problems on purpose.

Name. Stephen Strange, MD, PhD
Alias. Dr. Strange
Age. 55
Place of Birth. Philadelphia, USA
Powers.
Dr. Strange has a vast and versatile array of spells and mystical abilities, augmented by his arsenal of magical artifacts. They range from the stereotypical options such as flight, energy blasts, shields, teleportation, and astral projection, to more esoteric charms and curses. All magic must be powered by something, and some of Strange’s most potent spells draw from entities that can demand a heavy toll on the user if abused. Strange is also still a human, with all of the weaknesses that entails, and invoking magic frequently requires him to be able to make certain gestures or utter certain phrases. Aside from his magical skill, Stephen also has great medical knowledge and a mind for thinking of creative strategies on the fly, and is an expert martial artist.
History.
Stephen Strange drove himself to become the world’s greatest neurosurgeon due to guilt from his sister’s death. A car accident damaged his nerves and forced him to abandon his surgical career, he searched for a cure and after many failures he came to Kamar Taj, where he studied under The Ancient One. He quickly became a Master of the Mystical Arts and claimed the title of Earth’s Sorcerer Supreme, defending the planet from magical threats. Over the years he’s met other sorcerers, fought invasions from other realms, joined superhero teams, had over a dozen people/otherworldly entities add him to their “mortal enemies” list, been involved in a complicated romance with a sorceress from the Dark Dimension named Clea that still isn’t resolved because neither is sure how to properly handle divorce procedures for a magical soul bond, gained new powers, lost new powers, made some questionable fashion choices and helped save the world a couple of times.
The most recent disruption to Strange’s life came unexpectedly. The Sorcerer Supreme’s role had been quiet lately, Baron Mordo was dead (for the time being), Dormammu was losing a Dark Dimension civil war badly enough that he had no time to mess with Earth, the Fear Lords had some kind of falling out and were fighting amongst themselves, and Shuma-Gorath was doing whatever he does when he’s not actively trying to devour everything. All was well, until the Vishanti called him for a great mystical war, the War of the Seven Spheres. He tried to resist but was pulled in anyway, into a dimension where time did not flow as it did in mortal realms. The war lasted millennia, scarring Strange’s psyche from the extreme length and constant fighting, but when he returned to Earth only four months had passed, and his body was none the worse for the wear. In his absence, Wong had assumed the role of Sorcerer Supreme and done an admirable job of defending the realm. Now Strange is adrift, searching for what to do and dealing with the lingering effects of the epic conflict, trying to find a role for himself in a rapidly changing world.
Story Arcs.
Nunc Dimittis
During the war Strange saw a vision about who the next Sorcerer Supreme would be. He hasn’t fully decoded it or unraveled the other meanings hidden within, but he knows that it could have grave implications for the future. He’ll try to find this next holder of the title, but what will be left for him after this, and what else will he uncover on his quest?
Dormammu I’ve Come to Bargain (for real this time)
Strange attempts to negotiate a lasting peace treaty between Earth and the Dark Dimension. That’s going to be a challenge, and one that he would prefer not to take up alone. He’s going to have to sit down with some of his bitterest and most duplicitous foes, and also his ex-wife. People say it’s impossible, but Strange is no stranger to doing the impossible.
Name. William “Billy” Kaplan
Alias. Wiccan
Age. 18
Place of Birth. New York
Powers. Wiccan’s powers are extensive, unpredictable, powerful, possibly mutant, and most definitely magical. Typically, his abilities manifest as electrokinetic energy from his hands, which Wiccan can manipulate in numerous ways—both offensively and defensively. Wiccan can also teleport himself and his teammates over long distances, fly, create objects from thin air, levitate objects, project force, energy, ice, heat, and fire, and create force fields and other solid energy objects
History. The Avengers Vision and Scarlet Witch once had twin children. Billy and Tommy Maximoff. This was an extraordinary occurrence, considering Vision is a synthetic being and Scarlet Witch is a chaos magician. The family lived happily during a time known as the House of M. Unfortunately for the couple, the children were undone when Scarlet Witch muttered No More Mutants. However, the souls of the children would be reborn as new people.
Billy was born the eldest of 3 sons, to parents Jeff and Rebecca Kaplan. When he was young, Billy realized he was gay, and so took a lot of abuse from classmates. After getting into a fight with some bullies, Billy has an encounter with the Scarlet Witch. She heals him, and tells him to stand up for himself.
That’s exactly what he did the next time he had a run in with that same bully. Unluckily for him, the electrokinetic aspect of Billy’s powers manifested, and the bully was nearly killed.
After that incident, Billy began to practice his magic powers, and wished to find Wanda again, to whom he felt a special connection. He believes she may have activated something in him when she healed his injuries that day. Unfortunately, the Scarlet Witch had vanished.

Children’s Crusade: Billy finds Wanda… Stuff happens…
I'm very interested, but debating whether to use an older Molly Hayes (from Runaways), or a legacy OC I've grown attached to, Lydia Creel (daughter of Absorbing Man and Titania)
Molly has Super Strength but on the lower end of it so maybe Comics Jessica Jones level.
Lydia can copy powers (basically, the properties of people, so anything that's nature but not nurture, wholly external, or truly unique. So she can't copy being The Chosen One or Worthy of Mjolnir or anything) The copied powers are heavily nerfed but she can stack them
After more thought, I'm going to make Lydia Creel. I can already think of a few reasons she'd want to and/or could end up on the island. I think with this cast and setting, she would be a more interesting character to play
She might not have the X-gene (Her power is more Alien/Magical in nature) but it is linked to Loki (He created the potion that gave her father his powers), and it would also draw comparisons to Rogue's power
