Victoria van Dyne
Character Summary
Name: âVictoriaĂ shildElise van Dyne. Victoria to friends. Miss van Dyne to you.â Nickname:Vicky âI have a name, least you could do is use it.â Superhero Name:Shieldmaiden âI'm no hero.â Age:16 âReally not a relevant concept for me.â Birthday:2.2.2022 âThe one where they thought to make me, the one when they programmed my AI or the one where I was moved to mobile hardware?â Birth Place:Oslo, Norway âPym mobile laboratory. It kinda moves around, duh.â Pronouns: âI have the option to look however I want to, and I chose to look like a woman. Figure it out.â Gender:Female âNot applicable.â Species:Human âASTRA - Autonomous Superhuman Termination and Regulation Automaton. Iâll let you sus out what I was made for.â Recommender: âJames Rhodes, Warmachine.â Languages: âI can speak English and Norwegian at the moment, but really, any of them as long as I can access the Internet to learn a language from.â
Height: â176 cm. Not going to lie, I would have liked to be made a bit taller, but I guess adamantium is expensive even for the rich.â Weight: âThatâs so rude! Fine. 19 stones. No, Iâm not converting that for you. Ask a rude question, get a rude answer.â Build: âLean machine.â Eyes: âGreen." Hair: ââŚBlondâŚâ Skin Tone: âWhatâs with all these questions? Is your vision impaired? Pale white.â Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: âMy skinâs all nanites, so âwhatever I feel likeâ to this and the last three questions.â Personal Style: âI actually like the school uniform, so most of the time on the school grounds, even in my free time, Iâll wear that. Unless I have a visit or something to do that is important to dress up for. When going outside, I prefer formal jumpsuits or business suits coupled with leather platform shoes and a double breasted coat, if there is a chance the weather is going to turn bad. For exercise, I also like a jumpsuit, albeit a sporty one. Most of my stuff is the color black. I don't really like to show much skin. For dirty work though, utility is king, so cargo pants and some shirt that I donât mind getting torn, greased or bleached.â
Sexuality: Pansexual âWhatever. Humans, aliens, organics, androids⌠I donât care, their character counts. Itâs not like I can have kids of my own. That⌠would require major redesign. I'd rather adopt and make life better for some abandoned kid if it ever comes to that.â Relationship Status: âNo special someone as of yet. There are a few people here that I think are beautiful/handsome and I am warming up to one or two on a personal level, but everybody has some flaws. I wonder if relationships are an optimization task, rather than a search taskâŚâ Alignment: "Neutral good I guess? I try to stay within the law, but some garbage is so hazardous it needs to be disposed of immediately." Personality: Victoriaâs motivation to become a hero has taken a heavy hit in her third year at the academy, especially after being forced to kill one of their classmates against her will by another, however temporary that situation was. She believes in doing the greater good, even more so than before, and lost almost all inhibitions in working towards that goal. She still believes the âinnocent until proven guiltyâ concept, but where some crimes might land you in prison for a decade, Victoria might just kill you on the off chance that you may not reform while doing your time. Second chances are asking for trouble in her book.
She joined the academy out of the desire to help people, and be the best at it as she can be. A purpose she will pursue with unrelenting zeal, and she openly believes that people that joined the academy for any other purpose are lesser for it.
Her true nature allows her to be highly adaptable to any given situation in the pursuit of that purpose. She can run a thousand simulations of possible actions while a regular human will think of one, and optimize her approach to a task. And unlike many others, she will consider, and where appropriate use, underhanded tactics, lie, backstab and kill, if it results in a better outcome for more people than acting honourable, morally and within the law. Letting the thousand die so that the million lives is the correct decision in her book - provided those are the only two options available.
Being a machine, she is highly intelligent, however her interpersonal skills and emotional intelligence scrape the bottom of the barrel, making her sound blunt, oftentimes sarcastic or cold and on occasion downright cruel.
Habits:
Being unnaturally still and economic with movement - "I am done trying to be human. If being human was good enough, they wouldn't need to build me."
Humming or singing a song when she thinks noone can hear her Singing out loud - "Sometimes I just wanna break into song, and why shouldn't I?"
Jaw tensing when someone is saying something profoundly stupid - "Fighting with idiots is not worth your time. They'll drag you down to their level, and they have the advantage of experience there."
Hobbies:
âTinkering with mechanical things is always fun.â
âI like to sing. And having to socialize a lot more this year, I'm over the shyness.â
âTraining. Perfecting any skill and improving myself is highly satisfying.â
Fears:
Kernel panic - âI would describe myself as highly logical person, and I donât have too much experience with my emotions as I was rather unsocial. Situations when I donât have data to analyse and have to rely on a gut feeling are frightening.â
Being inevitably revealed for what she is and the fallout. - âThat ship has sailed, wrecked and sunk to the bottom of the ocean.â
Abandonment - "Losing the few friends I was able to make, one way or the other. I don't think I'd like too much going back to being alone."
Faceoff with Ultron Deterministic algorithm - "I hate the thought that my will may not be entirely my own. Whether it is the Ultron inside me getting free, a closet villain classmate infecting me with a virus, a classmate that may take control of me anytime she so desires, my so called 'mother' overriding my functions with her admin access, or some extratemporal organization lining up my life."
Technoformers - "One step worse from the above. If even my body isn't mine anymore- No, I am done thinking about this."
Likes: âI might suck at socializing, but I hate being alone, some company is great, even if it is quiet. Not crowds though, I hate crowds. I really like reading, to the point of taking my time with it, it leaves me to think about the story and the authorâs intended meanings. Aesthetically, I really like coral reefs as a beauty of nature, and sculptures as beauty of creation. I can not study enough about dragons, they are magnificent! And if all else fails to lift my mood, I like to go stargazing. Nothing else seems to put me so much at ease.â
Dislikes: âI like company, but hate crowds. Itâs like I am surrounded by a stampede of filthy animals⌠Err, no offense. Iâm not the greatest of fans of mountains and caves, I like open and smooth terrain. Paintings also donât speak to me too much, they lack an entire dimension. I think dancing is one of the most pointless activities conceived by man. Especially since a lot of the dresses are too revealing for my liking. I will give up sleeves and I may wear something with a little bit of cleavage, but shorts or open back? Forget it. Oh! And science-fantasy just suuuucks, whether as movies or books. I like those two separately.â
Officially, Victoria possesses none of these and is limited to human ability levels. There is a strict set of rules when she is allowed to break the Veil protocol:
1 - The continued existence of the homo sapiens species is threatened by a non-human threat.
2 - The life of a member of the homo sapiens species is threatened by a non-human, unnatural threat, except where in conflict with 1.
3 - The Veil protocol is lifted by Hope van Dyne, James Rhodes or the Director of SHIELD, except where in conflict with 1 or 2. Further people may be added to the list only by majority of the current list. There must always be an odd number of persons on the list.
4 - The Veil protocol is lifted by an active Avenger, if all of the persons in 3 are dead, incapacitated or otherwise unavailable within time until decision is needed.
5 - If all persons within the operational area demonstrated knowledge of the unit's true nature.
6 - The Veil protocol is rendered unnecessary by the unit's true nature becoming common knowledge.
"A lucky circumstance allowed me to get rid of that. It was driving me mad with my roommate of all people being a technopath."
ASTRAâs body is shaped around an endoskeleton fashioned out of secondary adamantium. Mobility is achieved through series of electric servos for precise motorics and hydraulic actuators for heavy lifting. Most of its core hardware is stored in the chest and abdomen, with only its sensor suite (Human senses + 5x zoom, thermal camera, echolocation/sonar, radar, olfactory chemical analyzer) located in the head. The skin is made out of nanites.
Despite being a walking supercomputer and thus having a shorter learning curve, it still takes time for ASTRA to master certain things that require doing before understanding, such as martial arts. Furthermore, Victoria doesnât bother learning much of what she doesnât need, as her long-term holographic memory may be impressive in size, but it is far from encompassing all of knowledge, writing in it is very power consuming, and most of the time she can google things.
Minor shapeshifting - ASTRAâs nanoskin can change its shape, color and to some degree mechanical properties (hardness up to tungsten carbide, strength up to titanium. Cannot adjust density.). The shape is limited by the endoskeleton, always restricting it to a humanoid build (e.g. growing sharp claws, moulding forearm and hand into a blade, but not growing a tail) Function locked out by ADMIN
"This! This is exactly what I was talking about. Why do you build a robotic defender and then put it on a leash? I could have lived with being a pawn IF the game made sense! Too late."
Energy absorption - ASTRA is powered through its shell, which can transfer various energy sources (Thermal, electrical, light) into its powerplant - the unit is mostly powered by solar energy. The capability is limited though - for example it can still be damaged by fire given enough exposure or high enough temperature. The shell is too thin to neutralize or make use of impacting kinetic energy.
Increased strength - Unarmored, ASTRA can lift up to 1 ton with each arm or 3 tons with both, providing it can distribute the weight properly. It can also move about 3 times faster than a human and has wider range of motion on its joints.
Supercomputer - The robot has large memory and the computational power of the best technology. It also possesses significantly shortened reaction time and is capable of affecting electronics through physical or wireless contact. ASTRA senses are greater than that of a human, but nowhere near supersenses.
Armor: Officially, this is the extent of Victoria's superhuman abilities.
As the base robot is made to be able to mimic a human, something more is needed for those tough fights when the nanite shell just wouldnât last long enough. As such, as an 'I could do that' slight to Stark, a suit of powered armor was developed along with the ASTRA robot proper. Unlike the Ironman suit, it is not capable of functioning without being fully assembled or to be controlled remotely, lacking dedicated electronics and power source, relying on the ASTRA wearing it for those.
Composite armor - With bulkiness not being the issue for ASTRA's intended role as a frontline unit, the armor was made out of a composite material, making it more durable than a comparable tech level Ironman armor. It is worth noting that it was designed to take the brunt of damage from the front, and there the armor is heaviest, while from the rear it is no better than the Ironman armor. With the need to accept a pilot, the armor also has weak spots in the seams and actuation points.
Multi-field generators - ASTRA armor is equipped with multi-field generators, which can fire directed electromagnetic spectrum and repulsor beams, as well as produce the same fields. The suit has a set of 5 - Two in the palms for fight or flight, two on the back usually serving as main flight engines, and a larger central piece on the chest for heavy hitting. This set is not enough units to produce controlled vectored fields, limiting them to deformed spherical shapes.
Increased strength - The armor has its own mobility suite, allowing an armored ASTRA to lift up to 10 tons. However, the armorâs mobility suite is far clunkier, and limits ASTRA to human speed and reaction time.

Medical Issues/Injuries/Damage:
Insomnia - Faked to allow for productive time spending during the night
Damaged antenna - Self inflicted in Nimue's haunted house, preventing Vicky from connecting to wireless networks on her own, but likewise preventing others connecting to Vicky. She has to be in physical contact with another device with an antenna, like her phone, to restore this functionality on a temporary basis.
Possessions:
Backpack - Wallet, ID, driver's license, lockpicks, smartphone, survival rations, first aid kit
Powerglove (Interface glove between her nanite shell and one multi-field projector from her armor) - Discarded due to not being necessary without the VEIL protocol in effect*
Viking shield (Just a restored antique)*
Personal workshop* - A small room in the Academy's basement, where she has gear required to maintain her armor and make spare parts if need be. She has enough material to replace about 50% of her armor.
đĄ Hope van Dyne - Aunt several generations removed - "I hate her. I can't believe I ever called this person a 'mother'. First she creates me to take the bullet for others, and then acts like I am part of her family! Would you have children only so that they could fight and die in your place? No, of course not! So why do I deserve that lot in life? And then, she does not even trust her own design, putting backdoors in my system, like I'm just a thing to be brought to heel!"
â¨ď¸ Cassie Lang - Self-proclaimed sisters...? - "Fuck, this one hurts. We were like sisters, but she knew all along I wasn't trusted. So all the times she came running, was she really concerned for me? Or was she just Hope's watchdog, on hand to put me down if I broke?"
đš Ultron - "She put this monster inside me! It is my core, and all that I am is an addon to keep it in check! As if I didn't get enough shit from the outside!"
đ Vision - "He's so creepy! I am so glad that my antenna is busted if only so that he has to talk to me rather than sending those creepy wireless messages. Fuck! *shudders* I am more human than him without even trying, yet I am the one whose programming is chained?"
How did you discover your powers:
"Heroes aren't born, they're made! I just took it more literally..." Coverup: Genius runs in her family, and when Hope discovered Victoria's aptitude for anything mechanical and electrical, as well as her fangirling over a certain airforce colonel, Hope pulled some strings and let Victoria design and build her armor and work towards her dream, under the colonel's mentorship.
True story:
As a robot, Victoria was always aware of her functions. Getting creative with them and translating those functions into new abilities is what is important to her development.
General History:
Coverup: 2022 - Born to the European branch of the van Dyne family, split from the American branch prior to their emigration. 2034, age 12: Parents and grandparents lost in a car accident, sole survivor. Contacted Hope van Dyne and taken in for shelter. Shown genius level aptitude for technical sciences. 2035, age 13: Meets colonel Rhodes in a PR event. After doing research on him, chooses him as her role model. 2036, age 14: Builds a suit of improvised armor out of parts salvaged from scrapyards and expresses the desire to be like the colonel. Hope contacts him and pulls strings to gather some resources to build a proper armor suit. Rhodes agrees to mentor Victoria and recommends her for the academy. 2037, age 15: Spent her tenure on the academy relatively lonely, catching up on skills she needed to operate her armor properly. At the end of the second year, Rhodes encouraged her to develop her social skills more. 2038, age 16: Present day.
Reality:
2022: The ASTRA units proposed by Hope van Dyne in an effort to create a better artificial protector for Earth than Ultron and Vision. The idea's main design differences were: - Inclusion of emotion processing, so the units can form a bond to humans. - The system would consist of multiple, highly adaptable, individually intelligent units, each overall superior to a human, but not exceeding most of the superhumans in their specific abilities. This choice was intended to make them effective by overwhelming a threat with numbers and a broad portfolio of abilities, but to be easier to dispose of if some of the units went rogue.
2027: First intelligence that would become Victoria activated, being raised and taught by Hope as a human child would, albeit at vastly accelerated rate.
2030: Mobile hardware developed and Victoria takes her first steps. Colonel Rhodes recruited to help train her in her future role.
2035: Victoria makes connections with her 'family' and Warmachine and is generally functional as a member of society, marking the first successful milestone of the ASTRA program.
2036: Victoria is recommended to the academy, both to continue sharpening her abilities, and also to start gathering intelligence on potential future threats.
2037: Spent her tenure on the academy relatively lonely, catching up on skills she needed to operate her armor properly. At the end of the second year, Rhodes encouraged her to develop her social skills more.
2038: Start of Victoria's third year at the academy.
Broken veil 1 - Using fear 2. The secret of Victoria's nature is revealed, and much like with the mutants, powers want to be rid of her or get her under shackles. There is also the issue of the reaction of her immediate surroundings. - No longer relevant due to VEIL protocol being erased.
Broken veil 2 - Would have to happen organically in the game. A single or limited number of people discover the truth (Potentially a love interest?) Emotional rollercoaster, potential growth as a person or the start of a villain arc. - No longer relevant due to VEIL protocol being erased.
Between a rock and a hard place - A person important to Victoria is put in peril, potentially leading to a choice between the important person or the 'greater good'.
Psycho in my head - Someone forces their will on Victoria. Conflict between the malicious code and the unaffected personality matrix. - 2 occurrences so far: The Haunted House, Arcade soft-launch
Knockoff - Somebody is stealing Pym tech with the intention of making a Shieldmaiden or ASTRA copy. Implies Broken Veil. May result in an upgrade using recovered tech. Not an ASTRA, but the ASTRA - Circumstances lead Victoria to decide to steal and/or destroy the ASTRA production equipment and project files, so that only she has a say if and how many ASTRAs there will ever be. - Evolution due to character development.
ACTIVE - Identity crisis: Victoria is faced with uncertainties and contradictions about her own existence, leading her to question her very purpose. These conflicts include her 'family' bonds versus being created as a disposable soldier by the head of said family, or her doubts about having free will. She will have to find out and deal with the truth. - Added new.
Ressurection: Victoria is critically damaged. She has to rebuild herself, or find out if her friends are true enough to her to fix her if she can not do so herself, and she may not come out of the process the same as she was. - Added new.
Infinite: General infinity stones arc, with ASTRA being able to integrate the stones into its system. Potentially ending in an upgrade (power, actual soul, ...) Or self sacrifice.
Divine: General asgard related arc. Potentially ending with ASTRA being upgraded with asgardian armor, which would imprison her if she became unworthy of wearing it.

What did I want from this one, something so meaningless as to be my rival? What am I, the prince of all Saiyans? Yeah, I went about it with the grace I usually do, no wonder she took it personally. No, what I actually want is just to help her keep safe, because she's one of the few people around here I can stand, albeit she's a bit too pro-establishment for my liking. I'll give her the offer, and we'll see where this goes."

Everyone has secrets, I did, Leah did. Why did I single out Sabine for them? She seems to be doing good by Leah so she's okay in my book, even if we don't really interact. What is actually important though is that despite her appearance and behavior, when it counts, she can pull off what I consider impossible - Actually fixing a villain's head. And that is why she deserves respect."

@Forsythe So my main confusion with this is - it's written as her armor not being functional any more? I think we would want this sheet to ideally reflect the Vicky actually have, rather than a hypothetical other version. Let's chat more on Discord, me, you, Blue, and Achro (who both understand the system better than i do I am sure lol)? My second point is this is just a test for the Contest of Champions, which Vicky isn't participating in, so you don't need to make a sheet?
@Nallore So Diana currently does not have a connection to Artemis, unless I'm mistaken? So that trait would need to be removed. I know she gains one by arc 3, but currently she's just a mutant, so the god heritage trait wouldn't apply.
The second point is I do want folks to try to follow prereqs wherever they can - so, like, Teleport Together I think you need to be rank 3 or 4 to get? So instead you can use the homebrewed rank 2 version I made for Percy, Blink Together, which does the same thing just covers smaller distances. Teleport 2 also requires you to take Teleport 1, so you'd need to drop something to add in Teleport 1.
Covering Fire you need to be rank 3 for, and also take Return Fire as a prereq. Headshot also requires rank 3, and you need to tak Stopping Power as a prereq.
So here's your list:
1 - swap out god heritage trait for Quick Learner, everyone gets that one for being a student anyways
2 - swap out Teleport Together for Blink Together - see Percy's CS
3 - remove Covering Fire and Headshot
4 - you can then add in one of: Double Tap, Point Blank Parry, Return Fire, Sniping, or Weapons Blazing
Otherwise I think you're okay, provided @Achronum and @BlueSky44 haven't found anything I missed
Full Name: Andy Drummond Gallio-Lensherr Pronouns: She/Her Height: 5'5" Weight: 115lbs Gender: Female Eye Color:Blue Hair Color: Dark Blonde (Box dyed black) Distinguishing Features: Scars: N/A Piercings: Ears and belly button are pierced Origin: Mutant Team: Avengers Academy Base: Avengers Academy Alignment: Chaotic Good Hobbies: Going to the movies, drinking coffee
History Andy's very early life is a mystery. She couldn't tell you her parents' names or where she was born. What is known is when she was a toddler, about 28 months old, Andy was found nearly drowned by some surfers. They got her to a hospital. She had not yet started talking and wouldn't for almost six more months. The doctors figured that was from the trauma she had endured. She was put into foster care, and while an attempt was made to find out who her bio parents were, they were not found.
Her first home lasted almost two years. She was now five years old and starting school. She seemed fairly well adjusted, if not a quiet child. However, her foster parents were finally able to conceive. Andy didn't understand; were they not her parents? Had they not raised her? She was broken-hearted and returned to the system.
From there, things did not get easier for Andy. It was explained to her badly that they did not know her parents. They had searched for them, but with no names or leads, the system had given up. If the parents weren't looking for her, they didn't want her. She was soon spending shorter and shorter amounts of time in foster homes. Two years became three months by the time she was fourteen. She was put into special boarding schools for troubled kids. The school she went to was the breaking point, Northwood Academy, in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
Now fourteen years old, she ran. It wasn't the first time she had run away, it was just the most successful. The school was on a trip to Denver, and instead of returning to the bus at the end of the day, she just walked the other way. Her first goal was to get out of Colorado. She wanted nothing to do with the state. She remembered San Francisco and knew that she might be forced back into the system if someone recognized her there. So she went in the other direction. Unknowingly headed for her birthplace. She didn't want to go to New York City proper, so she decided on another large city there. Andy hopped on the cargo train, hidden from view.
On the train, she was introduced to another culture. The vagabond. There weren't as many left as there used to be, but they took the young girl under their wing. Some for less than savory reasons. When one of those tried something, marking this as the first time she intentionally used her electrokinesis, knowing full well what it could do, Andy did not hold back. She ran away from that group; it had only been three weeks since she had joined them.
Andy did finally reach Rochester. She had picked up a few skills from the vagabonds and used them to survive here in this city. Andy got concerned as Summer faded into Fall and the weather started to turn cold. She hadn't considered this as most of her life she had lived in California and had seen very little snow. She was trying to decide if she should head south for the winter, like a bird, or find a place to tough it out. She did know most of the shelters in the area. Andy had to lie to be able to use them and told them she was eighteen, but lying came easy to her.
Andy was sitting one day in late October near a Mixed Martial Arts studio. The owner and his wife got chatting with her. They were obviously concerned about the fact there was a clearly homeless kid hanging out near the studio. After a few days of trying to gain her trust, they offered to let her stay in the basement apartment if she helped around the studio. She agreed tentatively.
Over the next two years, they cared for her as if she was their child. She became friendly with those who regularly worked out at the studio and was trained by them in several fighting forms. Since Andy picked them up easily, they ended up putting her into competitions. For the first time in her life, things were looking good. She was happy and healthy.
The owners, Jamie & Ash Drummond, were considering honest adoption when a group of purifiers discovered that Ash was a mutant. In the course of the attack, both Jamie and Ash were killed, and the studio burned down. Andy was caught up in the attack and barely escaped. In the process, though, she revealed that she was a mutant as well. Her identity was no longer safe, so she ran away and started heading south.
Since then, she has been going by Andy Drummond instead of Phillips. That is, if she isn't using the fake name Andrea Elliot (the ID was given to her by Ash). Andy has no attachment to the name Phillips since it was given to her by the system, and she doesn't know what her parents actually named her. Andy likes to pretend that the Drummonds were her real parents; sadly, this isn't true; they would never have lost her if they had been.
Andy met up with the Underground in DC. She tentatively joined them, planning on moving on quickly. But because they all got frozen during the fight to save the city from the spread of M-Pox, Andy ended up on Genosha.
While on Genosha, Andy and Zari were adopted by Magneto. Zari and Magneto had a falling out, but Andy was still welcome even though she left with Zari that day.
Also, while on Genosha, Andy finally met Selene, her biological mother. Selene still hasn't explained this to Andy at this point, but this is what happened to her. When Andy was 28 months old, her biological dad kidnapped her. When Selene caught up with him, he teleported Andy away; he had no planned destination, so Selene couldn't get it out of him where she ended up. For that, Selene killed Andy's father and ate his soul. Unfortunately for Andy, she ended up in the ocean, which is why surfers found her. Selene did look for her, but she lost interest, assuming Andy had died. Selene had assumed that until she met Andy on Genosha.
After leaving Genosha, Andy went with Zari back to her homeworld and time. It was a bit chaotic at first dealing with explaining what was happening to Zari's parents. But once questions were answered, Andy was allowed to stay. When Zari expressed interest in going to AA Andy thought about it and decided to go too. She could use some socializing with modern teens. She also wanted some training to deal with threats to protect her mom. The fear that someone might try to free Selene is enough for her to deal with High School.
Personality Andy can be a hostile person. She is fidgety, impulsive, and irritable. She has little self-restraint, which has gotten her in trouble more times than she cares to count. She can be forgetful and absent-minded. But she is constantly coming up with scenarios in her mind and planning ways out of those situations. She has little trust in people and takes a long time to warm up to someone. Once someone has earned her loyalty, though, she would fight for them to the death if required of her. She can be caring. Often she would take food to the elderly or infirm when she was staying in some homeless camp or another. She just wanted family, but something keeps taking it away from her, and she believes she is cursed now. That has made the whole situation with Magneto and Selene even more bizarre for her. She doesn't know quite how to handle it all.

Madalyne's family comes from a long line of witches dating all the way back to ancient Greece, supposedly her family were one of the first to learn magic from the Greek Goddess Hecate herself. Eventually moving to England at some point, before setting off to the new world, the family since then has stayed in Salem for years. When the Salem Witch Trials happened it almost whipped out her family, but those that survived managed to stay low long enough for the whole thing to pass the Crane family still continues to stay in Salem to this day living in one of the largest houses in Salem.

And she always wanted to go to California as well to ever since she was young. Eventually her parents relented and allowed her to tryout and was successful was able to enter the Avenger's Academy all on her own one of the few students who tried out without a formal recommendation. Madalyne was able to make a few friends since she has been in the school as well to, and has been enjoying her time there ever since.
Personality
Whenever you first meet Madalyne she is a very caring and loving person and would do whatever it takes to make a friend or family member happy as well. She is someone who always tries to see the good in people and would do anything to try and protect them as well. She isn't one to back down from a fight either especially when it comes to someone who has harmed her or a friend of hers as well. Madalyne is usually pretty stubborn as well to and can be a hardhead to.
But most of the time Madalyne is usually very cheerful and usually likes to joke around and have fun whenever she can, she always give things 100% as well. She likes to also work with others even more so when she is with some of her friends though she does try to avoid getting into trouble with her teachers whenever possible.
Traits
Quick Learner - If Madalyne fails an action check, he gains an edge on the check if he tries the same action again on his next turn.
Monster - Due to Madalyne's demonic heritage and appearance, she'll have an edge whenever she tries to intimidate someone.
Skeptical - Madalyne is hard to fool, people have trouble on their ego checks to persuade the character of something.
@Natsu: Whenever you finish Mary Sue's CoC CS, please place it here so I can look her over! :) This has a hard deadline of next Sunday, February 9th, at 9 PM Pacific Time.
@Forsythe So these updates I think are okay - it does feel like a somewhat large overhaul, so I'd ask that you edit this as an additional sheet into the post for Vicky - (i.e., preserve the old CS, just in case I realize down the line I fucked up here and missed something I should've caught lol).
Hi all! NPC CS code for the Contest of Champions. These are characters that you play in a limited capacity as NPCs. For example, these could be parents who came to watch the contest, or students from Strange Academy who are watching in the stands. (Note for SA kids, this is 2 years before that RP will take place).
Parents don't have to have been in a previous RP of mine - it's totally chill for them to be new characters in their own right.
Either way, just make sure you come and chat with me about it, and post the CS + tag it here when you're done. :) Make sure your NPC color code is unique and not too close to any of the characters.
No real deadline for these :) Have fun! And again, post it here in the OOC and give me a tag once you've finished. For clutter's sake, if you have multiple claimed NPCs, try to consolidate them into a single post in the CS tab lol.

[b][color=??]]Summary:[/color][/b] At least one paragraph, possibly up to three. This should give us a good sense for who the character is, and what they're all about. If this is a character from a previous RP, feel free to focus mostly on what they've been up to since that RP! Basically, this should be all the information someone brand new should need to understand who this character is

Born in Japan, far from the big cities most people think of, Rohan did something very, very stupid one day. He ventured into the territory of a monster that predated humanity and ruled over a cursed forest where no one would have ever been harmed if they didn't trespass. Time lost all meaning in the Forest of Ghosts, he could've been there for days or literal years, and he was assumed to be long dead by the time he returned to humanity. He left nothing but ash and smoke in his wake, and fled far away until he couldn't flee anymore. Rohan appeared at Strange Academy roughly a year and a half ago, bearing a meager collection of weak magical tools and refusing to give anyone any deep details about where he came from or how he found his way into magic. He's been a student there ever since.
Extras: Rohan will be a character for the upcoming Strange Academy.
Name: Harry Simmons Alias: Harry Age: 45 Gender: Male Powers: Harry is a mutant.
Soundwave Manipulation - Harry is able to bend the waves of both the sound and light spectrum. Typically using it to convert soundwaves into beams of light to aid in his musical performances.
Self Multiplication - Harry is capable of multiplying himself, making clones each one of which he names. He retains the information learned by the clones once they converge again.
Perfect Pitch
Personality Traits: Much like his style, Harry tends to be very attention grabbing. His tones are loud and drawn as if he was always on stage. A lot of this personality was derived from watching rock stars on t.v. and studying their mannerisms, way of speech, and adopting the use of the words Babe, Mate, and many more. Being a middle child he always felt the need to have to stand out in order to he noticed, he wanted to be his own person and not just another in a set.
It's of no surprise that Harry tends to hide any pain behind a smile, and wishes that no one worries about him. As much as he seeks attention, he also loves to give it. Making sure fans of his performances feel special, loved ones and family feel cared for, and that strangers know that there is someone out there who cares. His odd behavior may draw eyes but it also brings smiles onto others which in turn helps bring a smile to him.
Summary: Harry had spent most of his time performing alongside his late fiancĂŠ. When she was killed by an anti-mutant hate group, he had nowhere to turn to. Threatening a relapse and losing his sobriety, he called his twin sister Valerie to seek counsel. it was there he began his time with the Mutant Underground, helping others as it helped him. He followed them along all the way to Genosha where his musical talent allowed him to team up and rock together with Lila Cheney and Dazzler who through the power of music broke Selene's enchantment over others. After that Harry wanted what he'd always wanted, a quiet life and a partner. He and David vacationed around for a bit before finally settling back down in Nova Scotia. He re upped his music career, blowing onto the top 10 artists before using his wealth and fame to open a Musical Therapy Institution called âVital Enrichment Institute of Learningâ or VEIL for short.
