~THIS RP IS NOW DEAD.~

~BOTH ME AND LARFLEEZE THANK EVERYONE FOR PARTICIPATING~

Name: Erik Loveland
Alias: Night Wind
Age:19
Personality: Erik is a dork, talk to him about normal stuff and he will likely get bored and give short answers. Touch on a topic he knows, and you might not get him to stop. The best time to talk to him is when he is working, as the focus on his work keeps his mind from wondering, and the talking keeps him from overanalyzing his work. Generally a nice guy, but the revenge business before he was arrested made him alittle harsh.

Skills:
martial arts
Hacking
Weapons training
Almost limitless money
Genius level technology engineering.

Weapons:
Cloaking armor
Visor with heat vision, motion sensor, and alert system.
Wrist blades
Guns along back
Gloves contain various tools in the fingers, including hacking wires, lock gun, screwdriver, and wire cutters.
Internal computer.
Grapple cord on wrists
Fibers on hands and feet that allow climbing on walls.

History: the son of a famous inventor and business owner, Erik spent most of his life trying to ignore it. He went to school and hung out with the gamers and dork who he could relate to and tried to stay under the radar. In his spare time, he trained in fighting and tinkered with inventions of his own.

He was going to surprise his father with the new cloaking device he had created when he witnessed his fathers murder. The men responsible was a mob boss interested in the armor his father had been working on. Naturally his father refused.

Now, using the armor with his own modifications, Erik searches the internet and the streets for the men responsible.

Name: Alexander Maron

Alias/Nickname: Demon Stingerfish, Inmate 001

Age: 47

Appearance:

Personality: Alexanders personality reflects the years of trauma and loss he has been put through. He is hardly ever jovial or in the mood for jokes and is usually just focused on the task at hand.

Biography: Alexander was born in the middle east to an American father and a Welsh mother. His young life was one of solitude, they lived on the borders of civilization in a desert, living in a small, but secure house. While most other kids his age may have gone to school and developed friendships, Alex's life consisted of military training as taught by his parents. The reason he was being taught this from a young age was because of an agreement between the American government and the British government. A special task force was to be made in secret to deal with worldwide problems and various terrorism scandals. Three other children would be subjected to the same treatment that Alex was.

He discovered his powers during his teenage years. It was only then that his parents showed him theirs. His was a mix of theirs, his mother's power was essentially telekinesis, she could pick just about anything and was one of the strongest telepaths that both America and Britain had. His father had the generation, control and transferral of electricity. He used to be in a special forces much alike the one Alexander was being put into during WW2. He joined during the middle of the war and after showing his powers, was put into a special forces unit.

Alex was already powerful when he first got his powers. He discovered them when he woke up and practically everything metal was floating in his room and zapping each other when they got close. His parents taught him how to develop his powers as he grew. By the time he was ready to join the special unit he had essentially mastered his power.

His training wasn't finished when he was ready to join the special unit though. He was 15 when he joined and met his team-mates, but was 21 when he was finally put into action. His team-mates came from all different places and had all different powers. They were also given codenames matching whichever area of combat they were to be specialized and trained most in. Alex was trained most in stealth and was given the nickname 'Demon Stingray'. Another member of the unit, Yuri Dominin was given the codename 'White Rhino' for his power of bone growth and the ability to snap the bones off to use as weaponry. The third member, Jung-Hoon Bae was codenamed 'Forest Raven' for his ability to fly along with his power of impeccable eyesight no matter the height. The final member, Katlego 'Kat' Coller, codenamed 'Saifu' for her accelerated perception of time.

A lot of the time they were trained by solely in their area, although some of the times they got to train with each other on things they would all need to know. They soon became best friends after convening together after their training. As they grew together though, Alex's relationship with Kat grew into something more. They began dating, well as far as they knew what 'dating' was. Their sheltered life led them to not understand a lot of things that other people took for granted.

Eventually they were set on their first mission. It was a simple retrieve mission, they had to find and bring back a hostage that had been captured by terrorists. Their combined powers made the job a piece of cake, along with every other mission they had been tasked with. That is until the faithful day that an enemy terrorist force began to piece together their own team. They communicated with Yuri in secret and eventually turned them to their side with the use of money and empty promises. Yuri told them about each of his team-mates powers and how to defeat them. It was only until they were tasked with another retrieve mission that the terrorists put their plan into action.

They let the group recaptured the captured soldier and call in a chopper to retrieve them before they blew the chopper up. They then surrounded the group and warned them that if they tried to run or escape they would be killed one way or another. To prevent Kat from just dodging every bullet and destroying the enemies with her slowed perception of time they tased her first. Jung-Hoon got the worst of it though. He was naive and tried to escape. They lassoed him and threw him to the ground. The sick bastards cut off his arms and tore out his eyes. They left him to bleed to death. Alex attempted to try to tear the guns out of his enemies hands. They had prepared for him. They had their guns and weaponry made from plastic instead of metals. He decided it was best just to submit and hope for the best. That is until rage overtook him. They dragged Kat through the sand face first into a jeep and killed the captured soldier. Alex attempted to draw his gun, only to be met with a plastic grenade and the sounds of feet running in sand. It blew up and knocked him unconscious.

He woke up hours later. The only thing that kept him alive was Jung-Hoons body. Alex's arm was blown off along with his eye, but he had landed with that side being pressed down onto Jung-Hoons back. It kept a lot of the blood in for long enough that it stopped the bleeding. The grenade also blew his gun up and sent a shard into his forehead. Barely letting him survived. It added to the 'Demon' part of his name. He thought all hope was lost. He wouldn't give up though, he began walking into the desert. Trying to find civilization in the wastes was a hopeless effort. He was close to death and just collapsed under the heat of the sun. He knew he would die here he was sure of it. Somehow he was allowed to live though. He woke up while being carried in a fireman position on someones shoulder. He could hardly stay awake and so he didn't. He just hoped it wasn't one of the terrorists.

Alex woke up a few days later in some sort of bed. The room he was in was small, but somehow made him feel at home. He was suspicious of his environment though, who just takes in a wounded man in the desert? He needed to confirm his suspicions and make sure he wasn't in any real danger. He got out of the bed before collapsing back into it under the shock that he had actually lost an arm. It was more of the fact that he could feel strong phantom pains, every finger felt like it was still there, moving, living. He soon got up again and began to explore the house. He was met with something unbelievable.

He was taken in by his father, and the house he was in was the old shack he was trained in. Soon enough, his parents came home from the nearby towns market and after seeing him, broke down in tears. Soon they were done crying and reconciling and Alex told his parents of what happened. They soon contacted their old friends within the unit and got him back to his commanding officers. He told them of Yuri's betrayal, Kat's capture, Jung-Hoons death and his loss of limb. They devised a capture plan after using practically every recon drone to find Kat's position. But first, they had to get Alex a new limb. They suited him with the newest technology they had. They were keeping most things secret from the public and let small things seep out very slowly so that they would always be one step ahead. They attached a robotic limb to him. It took some time getting used to, but soon enough it was just like his old arm. The surgery included drilling a hole into the arm to let Alex's blood seep into it and enable the use of his powers in his new arm. The procedure worked and he was as strong as ever.

He parachuted onto Kat's location at night. He caught the terrorists by surprise, they thought he was dead and had just disposed of their plastic equipment. They were stupid for doing so. He turned their own guns on themselves and threw any bullets that came their way back at them. After going down five levels in some cave in the middle of nowhere, he finally found Kat. She had been brutally tortured and was covered in scars and bruises. She was also missing an arm and a leg, literally. Alex got her back to the unit as soon as he could. It turns out that the terrorists had soldered over the limbs to stop her from bleeding out and robotic replacements couldn't be attached. She had to get regular prosthetics.

It turns out that the trauma from the torture had left her in an unstable state. The knowledge that Jung-Hoon had died and Yuri had betrayed them tipped her over the age. She put herself into a coma which also plunged Alex into a great depression. His sole purpose was now to hunt down and kill Yuri. He fulfilled this promise to himself. He directed any payment he would recieve into the tracking of Yuri. He found him living in Cuba and running a drug farm. He snuck onto the plantation with his use of stealth and made his way to Yuri's room. What followed was a bloodbath. Yuri tossing his bones and using his superior strength to gain the advantage on Alex and Alex using his power and his enhanced hand-to-hand combat to defeat Yuri. It ended in Alex kicking Yuri through the window of his five story home. He left the plantation with a feeling of unfulfillment. After that, he just went with life, doing missions for the government whenever they were needed. That is until 2018, when the government had the idea to put any heroes in prison. Alex was the first to be contained. They thought that if he was allowed to be free, then he'd insight a revolution. They removed his robotic arm and clamped the anti-power bracer on him. They displayed his arm in the main hall as some sort of cruel joke. Soon enough, more and more heroes began to pile in.

Skills:
-Expert at hand-to-hand combat
-Knowledge of weaponry
-Military training
-Extensive knowledge of camoflague and stealth

Powers: Magnetic manipulation. His robotic hand is also a lot stronger than the average human.

I think that you missed the entire concept.

I'd like to keep the RP focused on the prisoners for now.

Awesome, I'll have a CS up by tomorrow, just going to reserve this spot for it.

Reserving my spot as well.

You two are reserved.

Can I also reserve a spot? I am formulating my character, he will be up either tomorrow or by Monday.

Of course.

So, that's two people accepted, and three others reserved, not to mention the people from the interest check. I may close applications soon, so that the jail escape won't be cluttered and messy.

Name: Jason

Alias/Nickname: Ironclad

Age: N/A



Personality:
He has two modes:
1) [work] stirn and to the point.
2) [relax] as implied.

Biography:
Jason was made as a partner to his master and his eventual successor when he needed to retire. He is a completely independent AI able to achieve greatness and uphold justice in Metropolis. That is until he stopped apprehending criminals and began hospitalizing or in some cases killing them. In Jason's steely mind it made more sense to keep filth off the streets rather then wait for it to come back. The MPD didn't take too kindly to this and tried to stop Jason, now known as Ironclad. It took a lot of force and military action to subdue Ironclad, and when they did they shut him down and shipped him off to a secret prison located under Metropolis. The SaT (Science and Technology) teams there made several attempts at reprogramming Ironclad to use him as an enforcer for the prison, but to no avail. His systems were too aggressive for them to hack. With that being that they locked him away in shutdown under heavy guard knowing that if he were to be activated it cohld mean the escape of him and his activator.

Skills:
As a Robot he is constantly building on what he knows thus he knows and can do a lot.

Extremely skilled Hand-to-hand, hacking and weapons use.
Unable to become fatigued
Lightning reflexes

Powers:
Can run 80mph, lift 10 tons, shrug off small arms fire.
Electricity manipulation

Other:
Inmate 351 "rumor has it that they keep Ironclad in this hole, in the Tech division."
Inmate 024 "No way man! That would be crazy, why would he be kept here that's too much of a risk!"
Inmate 351 "Nu-uh, I heards one of the guards talkin' 'bout him. They says that he is some serious stuff, and he would be the key to any escape. If you could convince him to help you."

I would like to express my own interest as well, also a former Advanced RPer on the old forums. Seems fun, I like the premise, and there's a lot of detail to digest so far. Pretty impressive.

EDIT: Screw it, making a CS just in case.

Name: Hope Thomas

Alias/Nickname: Wisp

Age: 22



Personality: Hope is... let's be honest, a bit of a confrontational bitch. She's impulsive, rude, and self-centered. Most would liken her demeanor to that of a hurricane: wild and unpredictable, and often capable of large amounts of property damage. She can flit from explosive anger to emotional hysterics to antisocial brooding with the snap of the fingers, and more often than not burns her bridges or isolates herself. Not one would call a "team player". Hope is mainly concerned with her own survival above all else and will work toward self preservation or safety over the greater goods or evils of the world... but this normally results in minor evils or the aforementioned property damage.

That being said, Hope can be generally candid in a nonthreatening environment with like-minded individuals, and can even be easily persuaded to "do the right thing" when it directly benefits her or someone she has grown attached to. Although she retains her rough edges and may passively insult others as a form of endearment. In a nutshell, Hope is a crazy, self-serving ice princess.

Biography: Hope Thomas, better known as Wisp, was a petty criminal in Northport before becoming arrested. Generally notorious for shoplifting, theft, and massive property damage, she had long walked free due to her unpredictability and fondness for popping up, stealing/breaking things, and disappearing again. It was by chance that she had decided to rob a drugstore with a police speed trap nearby that was able to track her. They never caught her, but they paved the way for several police choppers and the National Guard to overwhelm her to a standoff. Miraculously, they took her in alive, and Wisp was transferred to the only prison designed to hold her kind.

The one hidden beneath Metropolis.

Upon Hope's arrival, she was immediately... readjusted... to the criminal atmosphere she had made herself familiar with. Without her abilities she was nothing but a weak cripple, and with her mouthy attitude Wisp was quickly put in her place, often abused and made MSP's unofficial whipping girl. With no other resources for holding entities as powerful as herself, Metropolis Superhuman Prison was coed, and it was only with the enhanced security and watchful guards that Hope had avoided the less reputable parts of the prison experience. Weeks turned into months, and time began to take its toll on the unruly woman. She became submissive, smuggling items and information from the security personnel to get by, and spending however many days in the Substance Abuse Rehab block to avoid the more dangerous and unpleasant inmates. But it was soon that she began to feel stronger, no longer the weak cripple she had been. Wisp could tell her power was coming back bit by bit. She wasn't breathless by the time she reached the front of the lunch line, she could lift her own tray as if it wasn't made of brick. She began to grow bolder, cockier, and her confidence and arrogance returned. It returned enough for her to act on the information that she happened to keep up on, and use her connections to worm her way into a scheme to escape on her Community Room rotation on Sunday. And Sunday was soon approaching.

Skills: Hope has very few skills that benefit her, relying heavily on her powers to get her by. But she does have a few useful knowledge bases to rely on. One of them would be subterfuge. Hope is a good liar and very capable of sliding something past anyone concerned, be that information or an important object. She is also streetwise and knows who to talk to, how to talk to them, who to avoid, and all the unwritten rules that exist among lower class thugs. While not remarkably bright, Hope is a genius when it comes to spatial intelligence, the type that can solve a Rubix cube blindfolded and pick apart a combustion engine in a matter of minutes. This supplements her architectural know-how, having experience in the structure and designs of buildings in the past.

Powers: Gravitational Manipulation

Hope is capable of bending gravitational forces to her will via telepathic control of anti-matter, allowing her to make gravity heavier, lighter, nullify it, or point it in different directions. This ability extends itself to many applications, which will be covered in brief.

Levitation/Gravikinesis: Hope can alter the pull of gravitational forces to allow herself flight, levitate and throw objects, suspend people or objects in midair, or walk on walls or ceilings.

Gravitational Aura: Exuding a field of gravity, Hope can make her surroundings heavier, lighter, or a mix of the two to include suspending gravity within the area or pointing it in a different direction. With conscious effort she can affect this power differently to multiple entities, making herself lighter and an opponent heavier for example. With this power she can simulate superior strength by lowering the weight of unanchored objects and guiding them in the directions she wishes to move them. Her gravitational aura is completely autonomous when used very simply, and is the reason her prosthetic limb moves on its own without an mechanical means to do so.

Gravitational Affinity: She is selectively immune to the gravitational influence of other entities and is able to detect when gravity is being manipulated in her general surroundings. This extends to atmospheric pressure (a.k.a. her lungs won't collapse so far up in the sky) but nothing else, meaning that other methods to restrain her such as telekinesis would have a normal affect on her.

Anti-Gravity: Opposed to a normal gravity well, Hope can create one that does the opposite and repels instead of attracts. Hope can use this to maintain distance from an aggressor or deflect low-speed projectiles.

Vertigo: With great concentration and effort, Hope can create multiple, swirling gravity fields about a target's body, causing clumsiness, great loss of motor control, dizziness, confusion, and nausea. She is effectively incapable of performing other actions with her powers while maintaining the use of this one, and cannot hold it for long.

Other: More backstory will be revealed, so the bio generally begins right before she was arrested and during her stay in prison. Also she's a bit of a druggie.

Name: Samuel “sunny” Jaka

Alias: Sunburn

Age: 22

Appearance: sunny is 5’ 11”, mousy black hair, with dark eyes. He has a lean muscular build and a small scar that runs over the bridge of his nose just under his eyes
Personality: mostly laid back and calm. But can be deadly when the situation calls for it

Biography: sunny was a mid level enforcer for the local Twin dragon triads he started out as a package boy when he was 14 and slowly worked his way up until one day around his 18th birthday when a routine pick up went south, a dealer tried to make off with all of the cash. Sunny chased him down and put him in a headlock unfortunately for the dealer this was the moment sunny’s powers activated engulfing the dealers head in flames. Sunny worked for the triads for 2 more years before being arrested and sent to the MSP

Skills: high martial arts skill, great with improvised weapons(tables, chairs, anything he can pick up really ), also has a silver tongue (prefers to use charm and brains before resorting to violence)

Powers: ability to generate and control flames, can project fire as well as engulf his hands and feet making his strikes stronger

Name: David Archers

Alias/Nickname: Many call him (mockingly) Purple Eyes due to his eye color. He couldn’t think about a better name for himself than Sentinel (due to his eyes).

Age: 18

Appearance: David is everything you would think a boy of his age should be. He’s not extraordinary tall, nor small. His hair is always cut short. It’s dark, messy, muddy brown. Even before he was imprisoned he was already pale. But now, he looks almost completely white. He’s skinny and doesn’t have a whole lot of muscles. But the strangest about him are his eyes. They are dark and purple of color.

Personality: He’s extremely caring for others. Sometimes even too caring. But this only goes for other super powered people. He detests the MSP forces and his imprisonment but won’t ever show it. In secret he has grown obsessed with the thought of his powers and will do everything to use them again. Be it for good or evil.

Biography: David has grown up with little friends. But those he had were very close to him. Never the less he has always been a bit of a loner and an outsider. Searching for solitude sometimes. But aside from that he was a nice guy whom cared for all.
However, much changed the first time he saw his first Nymph. It was in his bedroom after several very though days at school. The Saturday he woke up, a Nymph was hovering over his bed. At first he was in shock, but slowly he calmed down and started to amaze at the little being of purple light.
From that day he started knowing about what he was. At first he wanted to be sure. He started with simple tests. He didn’t have super human strength. He prove himself that when he tried to lift his desk. Neither did he have super human intellect as he couldn’t understand a word of the quantum mechanics theories he found on the internet. But when he could move a pen half an inch of the desk with his mind, he was beyond excited. He had read much about superheroes and their incredible feats. He kept it secret for a few weeks, training and fine tuning until he was sure that lifting a pen from his desk wasn’t hard anymore. Then, full of excitement he showed his classmates what he could do. Within 12 hours he was arrested at his house and all files proving his existence were destroyed. That was about one year ago.

Skills: He had some basic training in martial arts and computer skills but that’s about it.

Powers: David’s powers are far from anything mechanical or human thought. He wields psychic powers, the ability to move objects with his mind. MSP’s little research conducted on him explained that he can somehow generated very tiny particles that somehow are able to lift other masses. It is speculated that he could also use these particles to create shockwaves. Furthermore he would, in the future, be able to compress these particles into small projectiles or even objects. The generation rate of these particles is almost completely reduced to zero by the bracelet.
A stranger thing about his powers is that these particles sometimes seem to have an intelligence of their own. Before his capture and imprisonment he was often alone in his room. Or so everyone was led to believe. But in fact, when he was under a huge amount of emotional stress these particles seem to combine themselves in several single points. When these points are dense enough with particles they started to shine a faint purple light, visible to the human eye. He called these things Nymphs. Mostly they darted through his bedroom, trying to cheer him up. Often with success. But he never had control over the creation of the Nymphs or their movement. Leading him to think that they were part of his force that gained their own intelligence. Nymphs couldn’t talk. Instead they could make vibrations in the air that sounded much like music or the singing of whales.
Since his imprisonment, no Nymphs have spawned. Proving that a normal generation rate of particles is required for them to spawn.
Finally, the particles’ ‘lifespan’ is about 24 hours. They are lightly radioactive but quickly start decaying. After 24 hours they are completely reduced to nothing.

Other: It is still unknown to most researchers and David himself why he wasn’t yet killed. (this is just so he has a reason why he isn’t killed yet)

((Hi all! I'm kind of new to this website but i had some experience in roleplaying in the past on another website. I hope this will be good enough. I see that most people use a picture for their description. I'm sorry but i don't have this kind of picture.))

((Edit: Thank you Big Sister AM!!! I changed it and i'm so sorry. it has been a while since i last did a forum rp))

Is there any more space left for another person?

Finished my app

Hello everyone!

Thank you for being interested in my role-play...but...I have to say 'no' to the people in robot/mech suits, seeing as I would like to keep this focused on the regular prison rats. I know that the 'Rumour' section in the 'Other' part of the CS kind of tell me why they were created, but for right now I will have to say no. That being said...

faltzerflame - Sorry, but we already have a sort of 'fire-starter'. I would have picked Big Sister AM's other character, but then I would have some sort of OCD aneurysm attack due to Legion's character being relatively similar, and it seems as if he put more effort in it. Again, sorry, but I'm going to have to decline.

Legion020 - You are accepted! Great character, I enjoyed reading the character sheet. Also, don't sweat not having a picture, descriptive sentences are also good.

Corporal Lance - You would be accepted happily, but I only have one minor question - When you say that Hope can suspend people in mid-air, that seems sort of like an insta-hit, and if it comes to it, an insta-kill. Also...now that I read it, your character could potentially be OP without really large shackles, and I wouldn't want to shackle anyone, as it would take the fun out of it..

Big Sister AM - I like both of your characters, and if I had to accept one then I would choose Sissy, hueheu. Mostly for the name (kidding). Welcome aboard.

So...I think that's my character, Legion020's character, Pink's character, and AM's character that's accepted, while we are waiting on four reservations. 8 People...I think that's more than enough for the prison escape. Don't want to make it too cluttered.

Thank you all for joining. (Also, the fourth reservation is for Larfleeze, who reserved himself through skype a day ago.)

ey' yo finished my app ya dig

I see that. Accept your ownself, scrub.
