[OOC] Chronicles of the Dark: Domino City

[Treue]

The year is 2674, 384 years after the world has been consumed by a lethal mutagenic toxin of unknown origin, colloquially named "The Dark Fog". Those exposed underwent horrific mutations, often dying from the ordeal. Those which survived became monstrosities, making life a struggle even for those who had managed to avoid exposure. Large domed cities sprung up quickly to protect the human race, though these cities were built by private parties, not existing world governments.

Domino City is an example of these cities. This fifty mile diameter circular city protects thousands from the dangers of the outside world, though some parts are better than others. The center of the city is reserved for high class citizens, and the quality of life reflects that. Advanced technology is commonplace and people are always smiling. As you move towards the rim however things change. Technology becomes more and more restricted, police patrol heavily with abusive intent, and the people live in poverty and filth.

Due to the rim of the city being for the most part ill maintained, some small amounts of the Dark Fog slip in now and then. Normally this is nothing to worry about, as mutations in developed humans only occur at higher concentrations. However, it's another story for the still developing fetuses in a mother's womb. These small amounts of toxin cause mutations in the child, the result being a human gifted with extraordinary power. These humans are referred to as "Children of the Dark" and are hunted down by the military police force, either to be experimented on or executed. Needless to say, there are a few rebellious power wielders who don't get along with the police force, and they do what they can to retaliate and save others like them.

The Setting

Domino city, one of the first great domed cities built to protect the human race. It is located on the west coast of the former United States of America, in an area once known as California. The large dome around the city shields against the Dark Fog and abominations outside the city. It blocks what little sunlight reaches the ground, but has bright ceiling lights which are used to simulate a day and night cycle. The city is comprised of five ringed districts. From center to rim, these districts are the Political Ring, R&D Ring, Corporate Ring, Agriculture Ring, and the Industrial Ring at the rim. Each of these rings is five miles thick, aside from the Political Ring being a circle with a five mile radius. Housing developments are scattered throughout all the rings, most often making use of vertical space to save room. These range from luxurious skyrises to seedy condominiums as one travels from the center of the city to the rim.

Political Ring
The idyllic center of Domino City, lush with greenery and magnificent architecture. This district is home to all of the important political and military figures of the city. In the very center lies the Capitol Building, where meetings of state occur and criminals are brought to be judged. Many buildings in this area are for recreation and entertainment.

R&D Ring
Nearly as nice as the Political Ring, the R&D Ring is where all of Domino's technology comes from and , as well as where the majority of Domino's military forces are housed and deployed from. Along with the military police, scientists and doctors also reside in this district.

Corporate Ring
The middle Ring of Domino City is always bustling with people from all parts of the city, as it holds the majority of shops and businesses. Buildings are packed closer together, and are shorter as the dome above declines toward the ground. The middle class live here, making a living mostly by running their stores.

Agriculture Ring
The fourth ring of the city, this district consists mainly of large indoor farms, which grow produce or breed livestock. The streets are narrow between the buildings here, and many of the farmers' housings have fallen into slight disrepair.

Industrial Ring
The largest district of the city, and the most heavily populated. The Industrial Ring is often referred to as the slums, though like all the other districts it plays a role in keeping the city self sufficient. The structures here are mostly factories which produce nearly everything Domino City needs, though housing projects and warehouses can be found as well. Buildings are crammed together here, often times sharing walls. What alleys there are are almost too thin for most people to squeeze through, and the streets aren't much better.

Interesting. I'm in.

Chaz

Name: Chaz Rolender
Age: 23
Gender: Male

Appearance

Height: 5'4"
Weight: 140
Personality: Chaz is mostly A nice person who doesn't really make friends. He often stops to help people out when he can, but doesn't allow people to get close to him in case they discover his secret. Because of this, he remains closed off from most people. However for those who do manage to enter into the realm of madness know as his circle of friends, they find a crazy, helpful, playfully insulting (he NEVER harms anyone with his words, he views that as just wrong), and scary person is hidden behind the calm exterior. Very few have seen Chaz get truly mad, and none have walked away from his direct anger.

When it come to the government, Chaz is very much against the way they handle thing in some areas, and very supportive in others. He would much rather have the government just keep a registry of the CotD then hunt them down. Just like you would keep a registry of people with a weapons permit. His views on other areas are similar, if it doesn't cause a problem, then it shouldn't be seen as a problem.

Bio: Chaz grew up in the corporate circle, and has had a relatively normal life. He went to school, learned how to run the family tech store, and got all of the licenses necessary. The only times he has ever had anything out of the ordinary happen is one time, when he was fifteen, his best friend was killed in an accident caused by the MPF, which caused him to close up; and a time when a CotD tried to kidnap him and he turned its own power (the power to cause major allergic reactions) against it, killing it. The fallout of the killing was actually pretty minor as the death was put down as an unlucky accident.
Skills: Bartering, cooking, organizing, finances, store-keeping/managing, understands how to use any piece of technology that doesn’t interface with the human body, as well most clean (aka doesn't need any extra tools or medical knowledge) interfacing tech. Advanced programming skills and basic electronic skills are also a necessity for his job.
Power: Chaz has the power to identify and copy and other Child of the Dark's power, however he can only identify a persons powers by seeing them; or mimic a persons power if he has touched them, and only for as long as he touched them. This can stack indefinitely, so if he knocks out a CofD, or interacts with them physically then he is building up the amount of time he can use their power. He can store any number of powers.
Drawback: Chaz has a headache that slowly builds up as he absorbs others power. The headache grows in relation to the amount of time he has charged for each power, however the headache goes away as long as he is not charging his power. Each power he charges causes a different headache, and they don't combine. This means that if he charges one power up to the point of a migraine, then goes and starts charging another, then the headache starts at the bottom again. However, if he starts charging the first power again, the headache goes right back to where it was. As of now, this limits him to no more then an hour long charge for any power, as that is all of the pain he can stand. In addition to his personal drawback, while using another's powers, he has all of their drawbacks.
Possessions: In addition to partial ownership of the store (to prevent anything going wrong if his parents died); he has a small amount of saved up wealth; a moderately good condition vehicle custom rigged by hand that he personally maintains; and several household tech devices. Nothing like what the R&D or political circles have (he can't afford it), but a fair amount nonetheless.
Other: Not much more to tell...yet.

[Another]

What's the maximum age a Child of the Dark can be?

In essence, how long has the Dark Fog been around for?

[Treue]

@Another Maximum age? What is that?

Which reminds me, I need to edit the OP.

---

EDIT:

Edit made.

[Another]

I just thought it might be a bit weird if I made a CofD character who was over 40 years old, while the fog may have only been around for 20 :P

EDIT: Okay, 384 years. That answers everything.

[Treue]

Yeah, I answered that in the beginning of the OP now.

These numbers are completely arbitrary by the way.

[Invader Len]

Jericho

Name: Jericho Mason

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Appearance:


Height: 5'7"

Weight: 150 lbs

Personality: Jericho is a cheery, pleasant, and cautious young man. A rookie on the force, he barely has a weeks worth of detail under his belt. Sharp, intelligent, and cunning, Jericho unfortunately lacks a lot of street smarts. He blindly puts his faith in authority and in his superiors, and truly believes that destroying the Children of Darkness will keep people safe. He has not met any thus far, but propaganda is a powerful tool, and has shaped Jericho since he was young. He is a very moral man, however, disapproving of theft, murder, hacking, and other serious crimes. His greatest wish is to protect and support his family and the many others in Domino City, though it is clear he has a lot to learn.

Bio: Jericho was born in the R&D ring to a wealthy family. His father was an inventor, his mother a pharmacist. Both were kind, upstanding citizens who raised their three children, Ramah, Nineveh, and Jericho. Ramah, the eldest brother, was sharp and sly, and took an interest in politics. Nineveh, the only daughter, was childish and longed to become and actress. And Jericho, the youngest, initially wanted to become an inventor like his father.

But things fall apart in Domino City, and not even the wealthy are safe from bad fortune. Jericho's father and mother were killed during an explosion that caused a small outbreak of the mutagen, and his sister Nineveh went blind from exposure. The incident was branded as a terrorist attack by Children of Darkness sympathizers, leading to a police crackdown. Ramah, now an adult, worked to take care of his younger siblings, securing a job as aide to a prominent politician. Nineveh was no longer able to support herself with her frail body, moved to the Political Ring with her older brother, and Jericho tried to pick up the pieces. Determined to not allow any other families be destroyed by mindless violence, he applied for a job as a security officer, eventually moving up from security to the main taskforce. Now, like many others, he works to hunt the Children of Darkness, believing them to be harmful terrorists or mindless monsters. Though inexperienced, he is highly determined, and values truth, honor, and security over power or freedom.

Skills: Having worked in his father's footsteps from a young age, Jericho has an astute knowledge of machinery and computers, particularly nano machines. He design his suit himself, going off of his father's initial designs. The suit he considers a prototype, hoping to improve it by field testing it on his missions. In addition, he is well versed in ancient religions, and considers himself a deist. He is aware of basic first aid, and has an average understanding of health and anatomy. His social skills, particularly with girls, could clearly use a touch up.

Tech: His armor is made of a network of self-replicating nano machines, who create a kevlar-like armor that can stop bullets, absorb kinetic and plasma energy, and is even water and fire proof. However, it is weak to electricity, and needs to recharge once every 48 hours, or the nano machines cease replicating. They are not fully immune to damage, and the suit can be broken or torn if there is enough stress. Generally, however, the nano machines replicate quickly enough to repair any damage to the overall suit. His nano suit also has camouflaging capabilities, though they can't hide his thermal signature. His suit can deactivate and retreat to a his belt, boots, and gloves for easy access and storage. The facial screen turns clear to show his face when speaking to others.

In addition, he wears a type of lens in his eye that acts as night vision, thermal vision, and facial recognition. The lens is so thin that it blends right into his iris, and is almost impossible to detect.

He wears an earpiece that acts as a phone, a video and voice recorder, and allows him to communicate with members of his team.

For weapons, he carries a standard issue plasma pistol, 2 stun grenades, an expandable electric baton, and a serrated combat knife, no mods. Because it's good to carry a backup in case all that tech fails.

Possessions:
- A bronze locket that he carries with him at all times, containing a holographic picture of his family.
- A "lucky" Captain Domino action figure he keeps in his locker.
-SeReNaI, or Self-Replicating Nano Intelligence. An artificial intelligence unit contained in a microchip in his collar that manages the programming and maintenance of the Nano Suit.

Other: Jericho is incredibly naive around women, having had little luck in talking to them outside his family and Serenai.
He also can't hold his liquor, and is scared of heights. Has a soft spot for small animals, children, pretty girls, and computers. He is on good terms with his brother, but suspects he's not always as honest or clean as he appears. Has a major sweet tooth.

[Eisenhorn]

Finally got my force guy knocked out.

Gregor Cross

Name: Gregor Cross

Age: 47

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Off Duty/Not in Uniform

In Uniform/On Duty

Height:
5'9"

Weight:
166lbs

Personality: Gregor is a pragmatic man, not concerned with niceties or due process in favor of doing what is necessary for the good of the city. His morality is fairly questionable, willing to overlook a lot in the name of the greater good for folks, whatever that might be defined as. While not outright corrupt, he is flexible, and can often overlook a lot in favor of getting the bigger fish, as the saying goes. Sure, some small fry might be able to skip out, but get the big ones and the little ones are left without their grand leadership. He can justify just about any of his actions through clever wording and rather flexible definitions on the rule of law. It's never theft, just reallocation of resources for State use. Murder is resisting arrest, Gregor really has no problem with bending the rules to bring in the worst. Fight fire with fire, as they say.

Bio:
Gregor was born to a gang leader, his mother a clerk within the Police force who was used for her contacts and information she could feed to her husband to keep him out of reach of the police while living in above average housing, out of reach of the leaking barriers of the city. He was orphaned rather quickly when his parents were caught in an information exchange and killed in the crossfire, leaving him orphaned and growing up in such an orphanage before joining the police force, going through their academy at the young age of 18 years old. At first, he would be a model cop, upholding every law in the fullest and trying to be the model police officer for the force. But he kept running into red tape and never catching the important targets when so many small fish and sheer numbers of petty criminals got in the way of his work.

Gregor started bending in small spots, figuring he could stop after getting who he needed to get to. But it got surprisingly easier, letting the small ones slip by in return for getting better info on the bigger ones, and his ability to flex the rules only grew, as did his pragmatism, especially after undergoing the intensive operations and gene therapy to increase his speed and agility. Some might blame that program, but it was a long, steady slide down a dark and slippery slope that Gregor fell along. He wasn't corrupt to the point of ignoring any crime for the right price, but he was playing with the rules in a dangerous way, too far and he would be no better than the criminals that he was going after. And in regards to Children of the Dark, he had hunted his fair share, they were typically innocent of any crime except existing, but there was no lee way with them, so that was that. He reached a firm, but dead end, posting as a detective in the force, where he was happy to relax and work at, having plenty of freedom of operation to do what he saw fit to solve cases and hunt the Children when they cropped up.

Skills:
Close Quarters Battle
Tracking
Operating Technical Devices
Detective Work

Tech:
Genetic Overhaul Program - Gregor is one of the first successful graduates of the GOP, or Genetic Overhaul Program, which was implemented to give certain members of the force an edge over increasingly dangerous Children of the Dark that normal tech could not, alone, overcome. The program intended to enhance agility or strength through genetic conditioning, eliminating genes that negatively impacted these traits while promoting the growth of genes that did. The initial tests failed miserably, but in time, at least by the time Gregor enrolled, it was finally becoming reliable. Gregor has inhuman speed and grace, although his metabolism is far higher to make up for the increased energy consumption.

Domino City Police Department Armor - Gregor's personal variation on the DCPD uniform, primarily to compensate for, and make up for, the enhanced agility. The armor itself uses a unique hard plate design over the vital areas, with an impact gel weaved in between the plates to compensate for the kinetic energy of rounds as well as absorb the energy from attacks that burn through the plates. Ironically, rounds that are potent enough to punch through the plate aren't remotely affected by the gel layer. Beyond his body armor, he has external mechanical amplifiers that enhance his strength without affecting his agility in a fight, and can be disabled and detached without slowing him down, if need be. Lastly of unique note is his helmet, which covers multiple spectrums of vision as well as providing protection against gasses and other harmful effects aimed at visual or respiratory systems.

M4X Match Carbine - Gregor took a personally bought match grade carbine near the beginning of his career and has been retooling and improving upon it over the past twenty years. The open holographic sight on top provides a clear sight picture of anything he is aiming at, while not forcing him to tunnel vision on a single target, while the combined laser/flashlight on the barrel of the weapon can be changed out at a whim. The weapon's integral suppressor reduces recoil, flash, and sound by redirecting the gasses of the round, while utilizing an integral magnetic charger to recover from any losses normally caused by the suppressor. Each round is match grade armor piercing, and the recoil dampening system in the stock helps make the weapon surprisingly dangerous despite overtly appearing to be a moderately altered carbine.

Possessions:
Secure PDA
Pack of Cigars
Lighter
Keys to his patrol vehicle

Other: Practices a form of close combat that focuses solely on killing someone as fast as possible, with whatever he can get his hands on. Whether this means literally killing someone with their shattered arm, or otherwise, each move is designed to maximize damage, and minimize the amount of time spent in a fight.

[Slendy]

_{"Since men created me does that make them Gods? Does this make me an angle born to carry out their orders? If the children of dark are the enemy does that make them demons?"}

Name:
Odin

Age:
Appears to be in his Mid 20s but ages at an extremely slow rate.

Gender:
Male

Appearance:
Slick black hair and eyes to match. Odin doesn't exactly have eyes, well pupils to be exact. He has eye balls but that's mainly it. His four limbs are prosthetics made from Magnesium Alloy which will be explained more in Tech. He also has two slots on his cheek for flash drives.

Height:
5'9"

Weight:
110lbs

Personality:
Odin is border line emotionless. He barely show signs for sympathy and follows every order that's carried out to him. Sometimes he doesn't care about small things and that sometimes leads to him ignoring murder. He'd just see it has a predator killing its prey, the circle of life. Odin is often deep in thought and loves to keep to himself. Though he knows he was created and can potential regain his memories he doesn't aim to do so.

Bio:
Odin doesn't know of his past but knows that he can't go back to it now. For one thing he does know that he wasn't originally a cyborg. The knowledge he received tells him so, but doesn't try to get into more depth about things that relate to what he is. He believes knowing his past wouldn't change anything so he completely stopped thinking about it. His only objective is the present and future.

Skills:
•Even if he's almost 25% human he's still human, that means he has the potential to learn and become better at something.

•Odin is a perfect Strategist since he has a brain that can possibly calculate a plan for a situation that calls for one.

•Skilled in May Thai and knows Basic Karate, Kung Fu and a bit of Judo and Tai Chi.

Tech:
•Prosthetic Magnesium Alloy limbs
The alloy that makes up his limbs are the strongest and lightest alloy known to man. Stronger than titanium and lighter than aluminum. They are not simply attached to his upper body but are apart of him like true real limbs. Ripping them off would be as tough as it would be for a normal person getting their limbs ripped off. Although it is a bit harder to do so.

•Cyborg
Odin is basically not human anymore. His original body being only a torso and a head. With science he was successful transformed to a living human computer. The process destroyed a lot of his nerves and possibly his brain before it was altered to be compatible with the prosthetic limbs. Since his torso is still flesh he can be stabbed or shot and bleed. This can cause him to tire out which normal doesn't happen.

•Enhancements
With his new limbs he's now able to run, lift, and bend beyond the human limitations. No that doesn't mean he can matrix and dodge bullets like zero. That simple means he has a higher chance of surviving a lot of things that would be considered fatal to men.

•Genius level Intellect
Odin's brain has been altered to control his prosthetic limbs which causes his brain to use less energy then it usually uses sending messages to four human limbs. In response the energy used to run the limbs that's left over stays directly within the brain that helps him process things on a genius level. That and something similar to a computer software was implanted within his brain. This doesn't give him telekinesis or anything either, he's just really smart and knows a lot due to his brain and the computer software filling him with as much knowledge as possible.

Possessions:
None as of Now

Other:
•He may be a Cyborg but he is still able to procreate. I did say only his limbs are prosthesis after all.

•Doesn't need food to survive but can still eat, on the other hand he can still dehydrate so he does need water at some point.

•Rocket Launchers, Very large concentrated volts of electricity(Lightening), A Bullet to the head, and acid are seriously problematic things for Odin that can be fatal or really lethal for him.

[Empath]

Woah! You go to sleep for the night and this thread shoots off! Nice ^^ I will get started on my character later today, but one thing that came to me in the late hours of the night: how does the police actually recognize the Children of the Dark? Do they scan them? Does the Children of the Dark require some physical mutation that makes them recognizable or?

[Archmage MC]

Here ya go. I've balanced her out pretty well.

Only toon trope I can't figure out how to balance, is that instant teleportation thing. You know, Toon is chasing someone, when that someone gets away from being super fast, the toon 'teleports' behind them ike a weeping angel? I think Weeping Angel mechanics could balance it, but thats still super super fast. Thats why its not on the list atm.

Light

Name: Light

Age: 24

Gender: Female

Appearance: Light is a pure white humanoid figure. Her head is a large spherical shape with no nose, very large black and orange eyes, short blue hair, fin like ears, and a very very skinny neck. She has a noticeable hourglass shape to her due to her hips and chest. She has skinny biceps with large forearms and hands with pointed fingers. She wears a white dress with blue trim and a blue tanktop, the dress having an 'M' cut pattern in the front to reveal her legs, which look normal besides the bottom leg ending at a sharp point where her foot would be.

Height: 1.6 meters

Weight: Varies, usually around 60kg.

Personality: Light is a carefree, playful, lax, honest sort of person. She tends to view everything as a game and as such, usually has a poor grasp on long standing consequences. She also tends to try to be friends with anyone she finds interesting and isn't much in the habit of making enemies with people unless they wrong her first. While coming off as goofy, snarky, or michevious, under her playful persona is an incredibly intelligent person who will give you A Bad Time if you make her angry. Course shes sorta lazy in that regard, so it takes a lot to get her to that point.

Bio: [Will make when rest is accepted]

Skills: Intelligent
Genre Savvy
Observant
And boy oh boy, don't make her angry. Unless you wanna have A Bad Time.

Power:

Toonforce

Toonforce
Light has the powers, physics, ext... of a toon.

Toon Regeneration: Its said that its nearly impossible to kill a toon, and thats true in the case of Light. While she still takes damage as normal and can be knocked out like normal (and sometimes even easier than most people), she can regenerate from any aliment, including being vaporized, her mind shattered or erased, her spirit taken out of her body, ext... She regenerates by 'popping' back to her normal state after a bit of taking no damage, sometimes having bandages or something on her that indicates what she was last hit by. While she can regenerate from pretty much any state, more extreme states or supernatural states take her more time to regenerate from, especially nonlethal states such as being turned into a kid, ext... She can probably still be killed by cosmic forces though, maybe...

Toon Physics: Physics affect Light differently since she is a cartoon. This means...

• Light's body 'stretches', usually in moments of rapid acceleration or if she is being pulled on from two sides. Her normal movements look cartoony as well. Her body can stretch and grow to hit something, but she can't stretch more than 1/5th of a meter in this way.
• If Light walks off a high point, such as a cliff, but is unaware that she is walking off of an edge, she will continue to walk on air as if it was ground. When she realizes she is no longer on solid ground, she will fall like normal.
• While falling, Light can stop when approaching the ground to readjust where she will land, before continuing to fall at the rate she was falling before she stopped.
• Injuries affect her differently than normal. For example, being caught up in an explosive causes her to appear ash covered before possibly breaking apart into a pile of ash, or being crushed causing her to become a pancake, ext...
• Light can't bleed.
• If Light is hit by a sharp object or a hot object on her backside, she'll be propelled away from the object, usually on fire if it was a hot object.
• If Light places her finger inside the barrel of a gun, she will cause the gun to misfire.
• Eating very spicy things will let Light breath fire, while also running around wildly looking for water.
• If stuck in hostile environments for long periods, Light will adapt to the environment and be able to function in it like normal.
• For some reason, her eyeballs are far, far more durable than the rest of her body.
• Light can pick up enchanted/DNA objects that other people usually wouldn't be allowed to pick up. However she will not gain the benefit from said objects unless she herself would fit the criteria for the enchantment/lock.
• Light can parkour on walls for extended periods before falling.
• Light has full control over her body pieces if she is chopped up. Sometimes she will form into tiny versions of herself is she is smashed or shattered, reforming after a bit of time running around.
• Light herself is extremely resistant to reality changing attacks or attacks formed from reality warping.
• Its very obvious to those around her when Light is dizzy, confused, knocked out, stunned, has an idea, ext.. due to various things appearing over her head depending on the state.
• Things get confusing if Light is chased into a hallway with many doors...
• If chasing something that is taking off from the ground, Light can step on the air for a time in order to chase them, but will eventually fall.
• Light can additionally stall an impending fall by flapping or flailing her arms for a few seconds.
• Can dress up in a disguise to fool the weak minded.
• You REALLY don't wanna eat her unless you want her walking around inside your head freely.
• A Shadow of Impending Doom appears below Light when an object is falling on her.
• Light leaves an imprint of herself if she impacts the ground from a high height. Ditto if she runs through a wall.
• Entering alternate dimensions or worlds that have something similar to what Light can do will often have Light take on that appearance. Or if a dimension calls for a certain kind of thing, IE its all underwater life or all anthropomorphic animals or something.
• Among other nuances I might have forgotten.

Toon Strength: Light can exhibit enormous strength for her small frame. This strength is tied to her emotions, and if shes sad, she loses a massive amount of strength.

Toon Speed: Light exhibits short bursts of speed, using it to either dodge attacks or run at decent speeds. While she can dodge bullets with no problems with this, actual running speed Light is notably faster, but not anywhere near speedster territory (not that much faster than a top speed car). She can only dodge a few attacks every so often, and only if shes aware of the attacks. Outside of this, Light isn't very fast at all.

ACME Magic Satchel: Light can store and pull various objects from her dress. Stored objects are placed in an 'inventory' of sorts (Limit 5) and she can call upon them at will by pulling them out of her dress. She can additonally pull objects from her dress without storing them first. These items are adorned with an ACME logo and are completely random, are often cartoony or have a horrendous backfire effect, and as the name suggests, usually (But not always) explode in her face if held too long, even non lethal things such as pies! Storing a random object doesn't allow her to call it at will, and she can only pull a few random objects every 10 minutes, the cooldown reduced by her putting back said random objects. Light can't store living objects.

Portable Hole: Light can pull a black circular hole from her dress, allowing her to teleport to anywhere within her sightlines upon placing and entering it. The entrance and exit holes can be placed on anything, including air or space, but there is a noticable delay of her coming out of the exit hole if its not located on a surface. Only Light and objects stored in her Magic Satchel can go inside her holes.

Toon Touch: Being a toon, Light reacts to normal reality strangely and tends to bring things to her state of reality. When touching something, it is unable to receive energy from outside sources. This gives her touch some sort slight of a 'creepy' feeling. Additionally if shes in constant contact with something for extremely extended periods it will start to go through the stages of turning into a toon with no beneficial powers, and eventually fade from reality altogether (A massive amount of time. Probably a few weeks.), maybe going to a different dimension entirely? If Light stops touching the object at any point, it will regain its energy at its normal rate and basically reset their reality back to normal after a very short amount of time if it didn't disappear. Until its reality is restored, it can't gain energy from outside sources. This power is always on and Light has no control over its intensity.

Drawback:

• Light takes extra damage from attacks due to her cartoon physics.
• Light is weak to gas, poison, ext type attacks, and it doesn't take much of a substance to have an effect on her.
• Light has an exceptionally difficult time breaking herself free of anything that binds her movement. Being encased in ice, tied down, stuck in a net, ext...
• TDLR: Light is very easy to incapacitate for a time. Tape especially is pretty nasty.
• A vast majority of her toon powers are tied to her emotional state, and most of them don't work well if she is feeling sad or depressed.
• Light plays with her opponents instead of fights them seriously unless they make her extremely angry. If she is annoyed with someone she'll start showing Genre Savvy type of playful fighting however.
• Light is very gullible due to her silly/playful/lazy persona, especially if she doesn't know or think poorly of someone. Shes not easy to directly turn on her friends though. She is also easy to talk down from a fight unless she is really angry.
• Light often tries to be friends with her opponents if she thinks she can.
• Light is unable to use Energy based weapons due to Cartoon physics, and ballistic based weapons have less power and speed if used by her. Bombs still have their full power, but a drastically reduced blast radius.
• Light is very easily distracted by music or other fun things unless she is really angry.
• Objects falling tend to home in slightly on Light, showing their Shadows of Impending Doom under her. Likewise occasionally Light will be hit by a falling anvil, safe, or piano out of nowhere. It probably came from a plane, probably.
• Light is on the wrong end of the luck spectrum, and often is seen as having 'bad luck' that only affects her, especially if its bad luck that leads to slapstick.
• Light is very slow to anger.

Possessions: None

Other: Light is made for slapstick, so autohit slapstick is fine by me.

@Empath Very good question, my apologies for forgetting to put that in the OP. In the early days of the apocalypse, when the Fog first began to appear, devices similar to Geiger counters were produced to detect high concentrations of the Fog. As giant fuckoff monsters began to appear, these were refined to be able to determine the location of nearby carriers of the mutagen. Children of the Dark are carriers as well, on a smaller level, so these devices were brought back into use for the Military Police. They come in many convenient forms! Accessorize.

As for the rest of you, I shall review your CSs sometime today. You guys are damn quick huh? Excited much?

[Empath]

@Treue Thanks! I will fit that into my character's background.

[Xandrya]

Leila

Name: Leila Rose

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Appearance

Height: 5'2

Weight: 110 lbs

Personality: Leila is quiet and reserved, for the most part. She usually isn't the first to strike a conversation amongst strangers, but that doesn't mean she will ignore those who approach her. Leila enjoys pursuing goals for herself and helping others achieve theirs, and she's spent the majority of her life doing just that. She's a rather ambitious girl and believes life is meaningless without having a personal objective.

Bio: Born into a family of farmers in the Agriculture Ring, Leila often ventured to either neighboring district to find an adventure of her own. She lived with her parents as well as her uncle, her father's only remaining brother. With no siblings of her own, she would spend most of her time at home outside interacting with the various animals they owned. She found it easy to get along with them and she swore they were the best friends anyone could ever hope for her. They listened to her problems, weren't judgmental, and even comforted her in their own ways at times when she was filled with despair.

One evening while she was out, the day after her 14th birthday, her home was raided. She came back only to find total destruction as well as the blood of her loved ones scattered throughout the house. She rushed outside, but there was no sign of her family or any of their animals for that matter. After the initial shock of what she had just seen subsided, Leila came to the conclusion that she wasn't safe in her own home anymore. She ran upstairs, grabbed the locket she had in her room, and hurried outside before she herself became the next victim.

It took a few weeks of being homeless, suffering from starvation and exposure to the harsh weather along the way, before Leila was taken in by a nice quiet family of 4. She was flooded with grief when they found her, but the pain slowly eased with time. The parents as well as the brother and sister got along with her very well, any there wasn't any resentment or hostility towards one another. They were farmers as well, although they lived nearly on the other side of the ring from where her home was. For the next couple of years, a good chunk of her free time was then spent sneaking around the various districts attempting to find the individuals responsible for her family's murder. When she wasn't out and about, she spent some time researching and digging for information that may be of use to her in her quest for vengeance.

At the age of 17, she moved out on her own and got a job as a personal assistant to some scientist from the Corporate Ring. Her life goals slightly shifted as she finally realized that she may never get her revenge, and she's now focused on pursuing her own dreams.

Skills: A quick runner and an increased intelligence level.

Power: Leila has the ability to influence another person's current thoughts and emotions as well as implant false memories into that person's mind. In order for this to occur though, she must have some sort of physical contact with that individual, even if it's for a split second. Unfortunately, as time goes by, Leila's influence over her target decreases and confusion will temporarily set in before they recognize what's happened to them. Recovery time varies purely by individual.

Drawback: If a person's mind is stronger than her own and able to repel the attack, then she herself will be hit with whatever memory or emotion had been generated. Repeated use of this ability causes Leila to have extreme headaches and sometimes, she absorbs her target's own memories which, depending on the situation, may or may not stay with her permanently. Additionally, this ability doesn't work on cyborgs or androids as the target must have a purely organic brain structure.

Possessions: A silver locket that's been passed down by generations holding an image of her parents.

Other: N/A

Edit: I promise I didn't read anyone else's CS before making my own, so please excuse whatever similarities there may be between our characters.

[Another]

Name: Keith Maguire

Age: 34

Gender: Male

Appearance: His hair seems perpetually wet, and sticks uncomfortably to his scalp. Being slightly overweight, his waist bulges at the stomach and he walks with an odd gait. Hazel eyes, clean shaven face. Despite this, he will always appear tidy, usually in a pin stripe suit.

Height: 5ft 6

Weight: 165 lbs

Personality: No matter what emotional turmoil he’s feeling on the inside, Keith will always project as calm and even tempered on the outside. He will tend to treat all strangers with kindness. He’s also quite interested in architecture – one of the few passions he has in life.

Bio:

Keith was born with a pretty useful ability, considering he was born in the industrial ring. All large constructions used steel as a foundation, and Keith was able to do his job as a construction worker pretty quickly. Faster work, meant more work, meant more money (as much as you could earn on minimum wage) that he could use to support his horribly disfigured mother. Although the levels of fog at the rim were safe for most people, Keith’s mother reacted adversely to it. Her skin hardened into grey scales, and after years of accumulation she found it impossible to walk. Keith thought that living closer to the centre might cure her, but he didn’t dare risk the move. Plus, as the monster she looked now, Police would be likely to murder her on sight – as they had done to many of his co-workers.

Keith’s life followed a pattern of work, care, sleep, eat and work again, until his mother finally died when he was 28 years old. He lost the will to work so hard, gathering only enough money to feed himself. However, he does believe that everyone in the industrial ring should have the chance to live closer to the centre, so that tragedies like his mother should never reoccur. Every day, he dreams of a situation where this can be possible.

Skills: He knows the infrastructure and floor plan of nearly every building in a 10 mile radius within his home – after all, he was personally part of the construction teams who built them.

Power: Iron/Steel Manipulation

Drawback:
• Cannot manipulate metal with an electric current going through it. If an electric current is passed through metal that Keith is manipulating, he will get an electric shock from it
• The colder the metal, the slower it will move. Keith cannot move metal that is colder than -1oC
• Manipulation range is 100 meter radius
• Metal must have some amount of Iron in it, before Keith can manipulate it

Possessions: Nothing out of the ordinary
Other: N/A

Didn't realize the OOC was up until now! I'll start working on my CS.

[Treue]

Moved to Character tab.

[Treue]

By the way, @Invader Len, @Eisenhorn, @Slendy, @Archmage MC, @Xandrya, and @Another, your characters are all approved. MC, your character is comic relief, so I shall allow your power. Stay funny. >:D

So there we have it, both of my first characters are up. If anyone has any issues with them don't be afraid to say so. Just so you all know, there's currently no maximum on number of characters per person.
