Sup Stretch?

@Lord Wraith

I don't particularly care for you right now.

[Carlsberg]

Btw, any heroes can try to stop Dissonance if you want :)

[Lord Wraith]

Okay, this is my best character ever.

//ABILITIES:

■ ENHANCED LIFESPAN | The average American River Otter lives until the age of sixteen. This would make Slip currently middle aged, however his mechanical augmentation has tripled his life meaning Slip is capable of living until the ripe old age of forty eight years. As such, he's currently in his prime.

■ ENHANCED PHYSIOLOGY | When Slip was experimented on, his skeletal frame was grafted with an alien alloy. As such, Slip is much more durable than he looks. His bones are capable of surviving major impacts or even blows from superhumans. The experiments also resulted in Slip being injected with a chemical compound which merged with her hair folicles causing his fur to become resistented to flame and energy. His fur is capable of disipating energy blasts, distributing the blow over a wider area to reduce the damage. Slip is also faster and stronger than an average otter, his strength on pair with a professional human athelete while his speed allows him to reach up to nearly 80kph (50mph) in the water. His running speed is significantly slower due to having to run on all four stubby legs.

■ OMNI-LINGUAL | While the experiments on Slip increased his vocal range, it's the universal translator implanted in both his vocal chords and ears that allow him to communicate with others. The translator is pre-programmed with nearly nine million known languages and can learn new ones through linguistic analysis. This allows Slip to communicate with nearly every species so long as they communicate verbally.

■ POCKET HAMMERSPACE | In the wild, otters have a fur pouch on their chest where they keep their favourite rock. This rock is used to break open shellfish and dig under water in order to find food. Slip was no different until he was experimented on. Now his fur pocket actually contains a limitless hammer space enabling him to store large weapons and even bounties in his chest. As such he stores all his arms in this pocket hammer space, only pulling them out when necessary.

//EQUIPMENT:

■ REVOLVER | A quick draw side-arm, Slip is rarely without his revolver. Capable of firing super heated slugs, the rounds act as a combination of both energy and ballistic fire. The weapon has a secondary fire mode which emits electrifying rounds designed to attack the nervous system which paralyzes the target.

■ PLASMA THROWER | Slip's favourite weapon, the plasma thrower is a lethal weapon which emits a superheat gout of plasma. This beam can be sustained to cut through most metals and often bypassing kinetic shields and other forceshields.

■ BLUNDERBUSS | A powerful kinetic weapon which fires a spread of solid rounds at a deadly velocity. Used for bypassing kinetic fields and penetrating enemy armor. The rounds explode upon impact for additional damage.

■ PETRIFIER | A wrist mounted fire arm that emits a beam which traps the target in frozen petrified state that keeps the victim in a state of stasis. Used for securing bounties and allowing Otter to transport them without struggle.

■ GRAV-GRENADES | Grenades which affect gravity, either pinning the target to the ground with increased gravity or sending them hurling through the air by decreasing it. Furthermore, if the grenade was detonated against a wall, the gravity would pull the target to the wall instead of the floor. The increase or decrease of gravity depends on which way Slip turns the cap.

//STATS:

■ HEIGHT | 42" (Including tail), 22" (Excluding tail)
■ WEIGHT | 25 lbs
■ FUR COLOUR | Brown
■ EYE COLOUR | Black

//DESCRIPTION:

Slipstream appears to be an average North American River Otter. Aside from this, he wears a mechanical harness which act as augmented prostectic arms to allow Slip to use and manipulate firearms, controls and other such instrumentation which would normally be out of reach for his stubby arms. Additionally this harness has a jetpack which rests on Slip's back.Beneath the harness sits a long and heavy leather like coat. This coat reaches from Slip's neck, down to his ankles and is resilient to most energy attacks as well as armored against ballistic ones. A dark brown, appearing almost black in some lights, the coat is made from the hide of what could be essentially described as a space alligator. Around the collar and lapels is a thick layer of wool like fur to add both warmth and a decorative design to the coat. Over his right eye, Slip wears an optical augment which acts as a targeting device and HUD. Slip has a gold hoop in his left ear as well as several gold bands around his tail. More often than not, Slip wears a leather flying cap with the goggles seated above his forehead.

^{"Witty Quote #4}

For decades, hollywood has portrayed aliens as little green men who steal away men, woman and cows in the night, probing them before returning them to Earth. Slipstream found out the hard way that not only are these stories true but the victims are not limited to humans and cattle. Abducting the young otter from his holt, Slip was experimented on by the small green aliens who mechanically augmented his entire skeleton and granting the rodent increased intelligence. Escaping his makers, Slip found himself alone in a massive new world. Learning how to survive, Slip found he had a knack for machines and eventually built himself a mechanical harness that allowed him to use firearms and fly spaceships.

■ PATRIOT | Slipstream is a proud Canadian Otter.

@The Kid Lantern, got this pretty far along. It should communicate my basic idea anyways so I just wanted to post it here so you could give it the old 'Yay or Nay' before I fully flesh it out since I realize it does border on the 'ridiculous' :P

[Hillan]

NOT Aquaman

A Q U A T I C U S

| B I R T H N A M E: |

It

| N I C K N A M E ( S ): |

Wet
Big Blue Giant
Tall, tall, tall glass of water

| A R C H E T Y P E: |

Alien Bounty Hunter/ Pirate / Retired Infiltrator

| A L I A S ( E S ): |

AQUATICUS

| S E X: |

N/A, refers to itself as a "He".

| A G E: |

84 years old, has the mental age of potato peel.

| A L I N G M E N T |:

Whatever his master decides for him.

| P E R S O N A L I T Y |:

Childish, Gullable, Trusting, Dimwitted, Protective.

| A P P E A R A N C E: |

His form is malleable and is able to alter his appearance, to even seem humanoid of he so desires. His most common appearance however is a hulking form, three meters tall and two meters wide between the shoulders, pouring with water. A seemingly small head between his shoulders. The liquid water that makes up his body is semi-solid, unless another state is used, thus allowing him to wear clothes, such as theTricore Hat inspired by 18th century Pirates on Planet Earth.

| A B I L I T I E S: |

■ Drowian Physique:

As the last remaining Dowian, taken away from his home when very young he does not know very much about his heritage. His conciousness is tored in a navy blue sphere made out of a incredibly tough dermal layer. He believes it to be his heart, and as such protects it greatly. His body can always reform from his Heart, providing there's water around, making him very difficult to injure.

■ Hydrokinetic:

Potentially one of the most capable manipulators of Water, Aquaticus is able to turn Oxygen and Hydrogen into water, thus effectively allowing him infinite water that he can then manipulate the pressure, temperature and amount of, giving him a vast variety of abilities, both offensive and defensive.

■ Superhuman Durability:

Able to survive gunfire without any injury, AQUATICUS is quite the imposing foe, given his very powerful nature.

| W E A K N E S S E S: |

■ Intelligence :

While old, he's not very smart. He's a gentle soul at heart who never has any desire to harm anyone, only following the orders of his master. He's gullible and easy to convince of just about anything, like a child with no life experience.

■ Gravity

When absorbing hydrogen and Oxygen to turn into water, he needs to be under the affect of "regular" gravity. As such, in the vacuum of space, he's unable to form his body and is as such nothing more than a 10 Inch sphere. Likewise a planet without an atmosphere makes it impossible for him to increase his mass, only use the water he had with him when he landed on the new planet.

■ Heat:

He can control his body in Solid and Liquid form, but gas is not possible for him to control his body in - while he can absorb the atoms and cool them if constant heat is put on him he will vaporize into his shell.

| S K I L L S: |

■ Stealth :

Due to his powers and his past, he's an excellent user of stealth, able to turn into a puddle, or to freeze against a wall, he's able to easily avoid detection.

■ Mechanical skills:

A recent skill, picked up thanks to his partner, AQUATICUS has an understanding of both machinery and weapons as well as the skills to perform repairs.

■ Animal Friend:

Even the Furious Xar-Eating Predator Tigers of Malkior XI will let the big Blue Giant scratch their belly.

| B I O G R A P H Y: |

Bluh.

| S T O R Y L I N E S: |

Bleh.

| M I S C. N O T E S: |

Has quite the speech impediment - always did, struggles to put together long sentences and as such is usually quiet, if he speaks he does so in few words, not always cohesive.

Partnered with Slipstream for the past year, he sees the little fella as a partner more so than a Master, even if the distinguishing the difference is difficult for him.

Pretty much what Wraith said.

[rocketrobie2]

Sorry for not getting a post up yet, been having a tough time trying to think of something to do but I'll try to crank something out today.

Also @Hillan@Lord Wraith your guys are wicked awesome.

@Hillan

Ty for the visitor message XD. I do not often receive those, as you said.

[Omega Man]

I'm probably gonna cap recruiting when Wraith decides on his character as we'd have 15 players total. IDK about a Canadian otter with grenades though lol

~KL~

@The Kid Lantern

Ay. We did a Rocket / Groot thing. EHEM, I mean, totally original idea no way at all influenced by that duo. CAN'T LEAVE WATERBABY IN THE CORNER.

[Omega Man]

I did like your character, I just don't want too many cosmic characters. If a spot opens up though it's yours!

~KL~

[Omega Man]

@Lord Wraith@Hillan Actually, on second thought, go ahead and finish anything left open in the sheets. If a cosmic team is formed in game with the duo, the cosmic outlaw, and maybe one of our other cosmic themed heroes... we may have to do a spin-off game LOL. @MsMellow mentioned not wanting to crash in New Athens, instead just looking for a bounty. And @Lmpkio will be introducing a galaxy spanning alien gang soon enough with ties to New Athens...

So do any villains wanna run into a guy with a giant robot snake?

~KL~

[Pirouette]

@The Kid Lantern
Feel free to join Gunrat in the hunt. Or During Ghoul's escape the two can run into each other.

[FantasyChic]

Just a heads up, but it's Mother's Day weekend so I am going to be super busy at work and will more than likely have no time to post. I do have something ready to get up, but I am not finished, but I should be able to get it up on Monday at the earliest.

[Aro]

@The Kid Lantern I'll take you and your little pet snake on.

[Hillan]

@The Kid Lantern I'll take you and your little pet snake on.

@Aro

Kinky.

[Carlsberg]

@The Kid Lantern

Giant robot snake? FITE ME

[Omega Man]

I'm away from the robot snake but Ark still has his gear in a bag and he's been making purchases with thick gold coins and jewels. How would any of us cross paths?

~KL~

@The Kid Lantern

Hm. Yeah, I suppose your snake wouldn't want none unless he's using bonds.. Hun.

(Alright, I'm a little sorry.)

[Weird Tales]

@Cuccoruler I finally posted, sorry about the wait.
