[CHAR] Guardians: Next Wave [A Science Fiction Superhero Roleplay!] [ACCEPTING!]

[Archmage MC]

Light

Name: Light

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.

Age: 24

Power(s):
Ultimate Regeneration - Light is capable of regenerating from pretty much any injury that isn't atomization (And maybe even from that.), although less critical injuries take longer to regenerate from. Light will regrow body parts starting from her head first, but if its unavailable, she will regenerate from the largest source of biomass she has. When Light regenerates, she gains a resistance to whatever she was regenerating from. Light can also adapt to extreme or zero oxygen environments like space or underwater over time. Light still feels all the pain of the injuries she sustains, and can be knocked out if the pain levels are too high or she is in a state where consciousness isn't possible. Light will additionally eventually absorb foreign materials that stop her regeneration or are stuck in her post regeneration such as bullets and the like.

Enhanced Strength - Light has superhuman strength for her frame, and can lift up cars fairly easily. Of course if she lifts something thats too heavy, she will suffer injuries from lifting it.

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: Light didn't have much of in the way of family or a good childhood. Add to the fact she was arrested upon becoming a gifted, and you wonder how she stays so chipper with a track record of bad things happening. Of course once you've seen only the bad, you see the good in a much greater light. And of course with this new offer of being a hero, seeing the world, and all that fun stuff, maybe her life is turning around?

Vivian Adler

Vivian “Silver Curse” Adler

Appearance: Dirty, white blonde hair. Tall. Dark eyes. Caucasian skin tone, has a few scars. In general, she wears leather jackets, jeans, and a t-shirt, partnered with a pair of combat boots.
Age: 24

Power(s): Telekinesis. The best scientific explanation for it, so far, is that she has the ability to latch onto the nuclei of atoms and forcibly rearrange them—or in her case, move them. She suspects that she could eventually destroy objects, but she hasn’t been able to achieve that yet.

Personality: Very much a rough and reckless nature, Vivian could be described as chaotic neutral on the alignment spectrum. She’s out for herself and whatever she wants, and has a lot of trouble trusting other people. The only thing she struggles with more than trust is patience—she enjoys having things done quickly and correctly. She operates within her own moral framework, willing to do what may seem unspeakable to others, as long as she can justify it to herself. There is a sweet and sensitive side to her, but of course, it’s buried deep down. She’s much more likely to seem insane than she would be to look harmless and gentle.

Biography: Vivian’s parents never paid too much attention to her. Her father was the CEO of a major company and her mother a former pageant queen. Both of them had firm expectations for what they wanted from their daughter—and it didn’t matter that Vivian wanted nothing to do with them. The nanny more raised her than her parents, and when she was around 12 years old, her parents decided that they didn’t need a nanny anymore. This was when Vivian began to rebel. She wasn’t the type to skip class—she was more of the organized rebel type. She would con the other kids at school, running black market type networks. Drugs never were her business, and eventually, she started doing petty crimes, such as shoplifting.
By the time the radiation hit, Vivian had just graduated from college. Her degree was in computer science, and mostly, she went to college to please her parents. They controlled her money, after all. She had intended to use her degree in order to become a well paid hacker, causing trouble and getting paid… Instead, Vivian collapsed in her apartment, only to wake up and realize that her phone would fly to her hand, that the blankets were floating, and other objects were suspended in air. She could control things with her mind.

And of course, Vivian didn’t feel like playing the hero. She started using her power for sophisticated crime—high class bank robberies, and other things of that element. She got the nickname of Silver Curse due to her practices. About a year into her crime spree, however, she was betrayed by one of the other Gifted in her group. They ratted her out in hopes of getting a reduced sentence. Both of them were locked up in a high security prison. And due to Vivian’s powers, her isolation had to be complete. No one could trust the girl who could move objects with a simple thought.

And to Vivian, they were right. She would do anything she could to escape—and to get her revenge.

The Kraken

Name

Alexandra Ivanov

Appearance:

Alexandra is shorter than the average person, standing at only 5' 3". Her jet black hair reaches all the way down to the middle of her back. The prison jumpsuit complements her small frame, even though the large tentacle-arms have completely ruined any semblance of beauty that she once had. The tentacles themselves are large, purple-red flesh that is constantly secreting a sticky liquid to keep them moisturized.

Age:

21

Power(s):

Alexandra's power is both a blessing and a curse. After an incident in the lab, her arms have been replaced with tentacles resembling that of an octopus. These tentacles or capable of extending nearly three times her height, and can withstand extreme temperatures. They have been known to regenerate after being damaged, no matter the severity.

Personality:

Alexandra has developed a cold exterior. She'll often push away others, in order to preserve her sanity. She is constantly afraid of being betrayed, and does everything she can to keep that from happening. Due to the unfortunate events that bestowed upon her this "gift," she is quite pessimistic. Her thirst for knowledge has given her the ability to think logically.

Bio:

Alexandra wasn't like the other kids growing up. While the others were playing in the dirt, Alexandra was studying the dirt. She was constantly going to her parents with questions about the world. One day while on a school field trip to an aquarium, she fell in love with the creatures of the water. From that day on, she devoted her studies to marine biology. She graduated high school and went on to become a marine biologist.

While studying an extremely rare species of octopus, the radiation hit. A freak accident resulted in the genes of the octopus being crossed with her own. Her arms violently disintegrated and were replaced with two large, gooey masses of tentacles. The pain was too much to handle, and she passed out.

She awoke several days later only to realize that her nightmare was more than just that. It was her reality. In an act of desperation, Alexandra attempted to cut off the tentacles. She would be an amputee, but at least she wouldn't be a monster. Unfortunately, the tentacles grew back within a few hours. All that pain was for nothing.

She attempted to live her life as normal as possible, but with the rising of Gifted villains, she was locked away along with all the others. Now all alone, she had time to ponder the reality of her situation. Everyone she had known shunned her, not only because she was Gifted, but because she looked like something out of a horror movie.

Spite, rage, and above all else, sadness began to build up as she lived her life in prison. Due to something completely out of her control, she was labelled a criminal. She was thrown in prison because of the actions of others. Her life was turned upside down because of this freak accident.

Atom Bomb

Archer Kent

---

Name:

Archer Matthew Kent ("Atom Bomb")

Appearance:



Archer has blonde hair, blue eyes. He has a slim body build and is 6'1 ft tall. He could be considered handsome, besides the dark look in his eyes. He's slimy built, with somewhat good muscle for a person his age. Most people would not look at this guy twice.

Age:

24

Powers:

Atomic Powers (Nuclear Energy Manipulation.)
When Archer uses his powers, a glowing red aura glows around his arms. And a red glow pulses through the rest of his body.. He can use his powers and many different ways. He can form a giant nuclear blast in his hands and toss it, making a tiny explosion or enormous nuke. He can also fire a beam of atomic energy at someone, either giving that person much radiation or obliterating them at the spot. He also can absorb energy from different things, powering up his counter-attack. For example, he can absorb a grenade explosion BUT would still get hurt, just not as much as he would've. Archer can barely control his already unstable powers, he could instantly blow up into a nuke. This makes him a very wild opponent. Apart of his powers is radiation resistance, meaning radiation from his powers doesn't affect him at all. This is because there is a slim invisible force field around his body that protects him from radiation.

Personality:

Possibly being the only Gifted person that prefer solitary confinement, Archer is very serious for a person his age. He stays away from most people, considering that he's a walking nuclear bomb. He hates most of humanity, because they hate him. Yet he refuses to hurt innocent people. He's so angry to the point that he's calm, he's afraid of himself. He cracks jokes sometimes as well. Overall, Archer is an serious person, but is kind to others that are like him.

Bio:

Archer was born in N.Y.C., New York in 1997. His parents were David and Alexis Kent. Archer was the average kid in school. He had decent grades, did well in class. And stayed out of trouble. He loved playing football with his little brother, Keith Kent. Archer earned his scholarship to Xavier Academy, and moved to Manhattan. He missed his family a lot, but soon earned friends in college.

In 2019, he and his very intelligent friend, Jonas Allen were working on an project for the Academy's Science Fair. Archer was good at building, and Jonas worked out everything else. They were trying to build a nuclear energy machine. They thought they were going to change the world. They were planning to make a machine able to power generators, lights, TVs, and other things with nuclear energy. Little did they know of the soon coming wave field that was coming to Earth.

While working on their project, Archer had placed his hand on top of the machine. Then the wave field of radiation hit. Archer and the machine's nuclear energy mixed, turning him into a unstable human nuclear bomb. With his new powers and the wave field hitting, the academy was devastated. Killing everyone, besides his friend Jonas. Jonas had also earned the same powers but his were amplified, the specific genes that help develop powers were stronger in Jonas.

Archer was afraid of himself. He stayed away from his family, scared that he might killed them. Hiding in the shadows, Archer also hated humanity. People were afraid of him, but he was just as human as them. That's why he decided to stay in the shadows for the rest of his life. Until, one day Jonas shows up, attacking Times Square. Jonas had gone mad with power and thought he was above regular humans. Archer wasn't going to let him attack innocent people, he came to Times Square trying to reason with Jonas. But Jonas wouldn't listen and even attacked Archer, not knowing about Archer's powers. Archer absorbed Jonas' blast, and threw it back at him.

The two had a devastating fight, damaging a lot of Times Square. But soon enough, Archer subdued his former friend. The police showed up, and shot Jonas as he attempted to attacked them, killing him. They arrested Archer because they saw his powers were too unstable for him to be left alone in Manhattan.

Archer spent the rest of the year in the prison for Superhumans, he was barely let out of his cell. The guards and prisoners gave him the nickname Atom Bomb or A. Bomb for short, for obvious reasons. He was fine with this, he didn't want to hurt anybody. And told himself this was the only way to make sure he could never kill an innocent person. That's until one day, a man showed up to his cell and gave him a chance to use his powers for good, and learn how to control them. How could Archer not say no to becoming a good guy?

Archer's Theme

[Mixtape Ghost N]

Fiona Ashley Barrett

Name:

Fiona Ashley Barrett

Appearance:

Now, Fiona has a very distinct appearance to her, indeed. She looks like a hybrid of a human being and an insect - with her appearing leaning on human so that she doesn't appear as monstrous as a hybrid would imply. She is covered, from head to toe, in a thin, olive-green, exoskeleton that makes up a light armoring around her being. With segments here and there, and less armor in the joints, she can move around like a human would. To put it simply, Fiona is anatomically the same as a human being, except with an exoskeleton - No extra limbs. Fiona has the traits of a grasshopper, if one was versed in the insectoid realm. On the top of her head are two antennas that are thin and look much like long strands of hair - they are nearly her body height in length. She has two, very large, black, almond-shaped, grasshopper eyes - that appear close to humans. On the sides of her mouth are two mandibles that encompass her mouth when they're closed. Finally, her legs are much thicker, and capable of preforming powerful jumps (Or a kick in a fight). Moving on, Fiona's build is pretty slim, she's slender. Almost petite. I doubt she could even biologically gain visible body fat, or muscles. Her body-shape is roughly rectangle-shaped. Naturally, her legs are much longer than the rest of her body - disproportionately adding on a few inches to a girl that would be naturally be the average female height. Her arms are pretty standard length and proportionate to the rest of her body. Body is relatively scar free (Try scaring chitin!). A few marks here and there from some recent injuries, that would fade once she molts.

Face still humanoid, Fiona has an oval-shaped head, and vaguely European facial-features. Facial features blend neatly together, only having one exposed creek in order for her to move her jaw. She has a very small button nose with small nostrils right above her mouse. With her mouth being small and having very thin lips - along with human teeth. Her cheeks are smooth... I mean not in the texture way, in how they are. I should note that Fiona doesn't have ears - merely two dark holes where her ears should be. These holes are obscured by her hair. Fiona has a head of very curly orange hair (If you're asking how and why; yes). It's very well cleaned, and has a neat texture to it. Lets it flow, it hangs off her head onto her shoulders in a very messy hairstyle. Usually flying around as she moves (Especially when she jumps).

Fiona's voice sounds vaguely humanoid. It has a strange buzzing/chirping overtone that definitely sounds insectoid.

Fiona dresses very lightly... not in the slutty way, but dresses in such a manner that she doesn't get too restricted. With a body like hers, she has to wear clothes a few sizes extra, or else it'd get torn. The legs area is the biggest problem, since she can't properly move without using her legs. Sweat shorts and skirts tend to do the trick. Stuff that leave her legs free. As for style, Fiona has no style. She wears whatever she has access to, really. Colors, and decals, are completely irrelevant - only size are relevant. She'd wear nothing if it wasn't immodest. Fiona always has a large red bow on the top of her head. Right now... Fiona is in the middle of a crowded city, full of people who probably take note to a giant Cricket-woman walking about. So, she wears something to cover herself up. A large, light-grey, robe. It isn't inconspicuous, but it hides the person within. Which is why she tends to stick to the alleyways and night time.

Age:

18

Power:
Adjustable Insect-Physiology

Fiona has power of the chitinous arthropods known as the insects! Fiona has the power to shift her body in order to adapt traits from these creatures. Which is a very versatile ability in and of itself. Since there a ton of insects, each with their own purposes. For example, Fiona can transform into an ant and gain strength proportionate to her size. Adapting features of a Bee in order to gain wings and a stinger. And so on - the possibilities are endless. However, I should note that she can't completely transform into an insect. She'd be half-human, or have some humanoid features. Generally, insects have chitin armor, enhanced senses of some form, and extra limbs. Now, if Fiona adapts an insect, her body will transform - however, there are different levels of transformations. The more she transforms, the more monstrous and inhuman she will become, and in the process, gain strength. If she were to devolve deeper into her Grasshopper form, she will lose her humanoid shape, gain extra limbs, and become much more threatening and monstrous. At the same time, her senses, jumping ability, and more, will be enhanced by a great degree. The same with her other forms. I could sit here and go on and on listing variables, but there's just too many. One thing I should note about Fiona is her way of transforming. Once she triggers a transformation, she will molt her original shell, and in the process, gain a new one with the new insects traits. Also, Fiona can force a molt in order to repair damage to her shell - in order to accommodate to her poor healing. However, it is possible for Fiona to regrow a lost-limb using molting, or transforming.

• Cricket-Physiology
  
  Fiona's base/default form. It gives her abilities consistent with the mighty grasshopper! The most obvious advantage is the boost to her jumping ability. She'll be able to jump high and far! It also comes with plenty of leg-strength so she can deliver one hell of a kick. She has fairly strong jaws that are natural to crickets. She can deliver a devastating bite. Crickets have pretty good senses, in fact. More than they're given credit for. Thus, Fiona's several senses are keen. Her vision is pretty good, and she's able to pick up movement much easier than humans are. It gives her a sort of enhanced reflexes, as she can see things faster and, thus, react to them quicker. Plus, she has night vision and can overall see better in low-light environments. Fiona has a great sense of hearing - she can hear from quite a distance away... using her legs (Really, look it up). She can pick up ultra-sonic sounds too. Her sense of smell is also enhanced through her antennas. They are very sensitive, enough so that she may feel around in her environment. It also allows her to pick up scents, so it counts as enhanced smell. Finally, Fiona has special hairs on her body that allows her to sense air movements and pressure changes. Which can allow her to detect if something is coming. Transforming increases these abilities, along with giving her some appearance changes. At her transformation's extreme, she would lose her humanoid shape and take up one similar to a centaur. Lower body of a cricket, with a humanoid upper body. Her mouth would be mandibles, and her face would be insectoid. In this state, she'd be able to cover great distances with a single leap - using her wings to help her maneuver.

Personality:

People may first notice that Fiona is rather distant, and timid. Jumpy even. All of which is true, since Fiona isn't exactly a normal person - thus, she keeps her guard up when around people. Especially the normal looking kind who she doesn't know. She'll generally keep quiet, avoid eye-contact, and usually place herself far away from them. Hell, people pretty much peg her for an introvert the second they see her. Which, in a sense, isn't true, but I'll elaborate on that in a bit. Fiona is jumpy, and spastic - and not in the good way. If something frightens her she has two responses, the natural ones: Flight, or fight. Which means she's just as likely to lash out against someone than she is to run. Yet, Fiona is still very kind and empathetic. She won't hurt people in any way - and if she does, she'll definitely apologize for any wrongdoings. People may notice that Fiona is a very gentle-soul. She's calm, polite, and very softspoken - albeit, very nervous. When in a conversation, she rarely uses slangs, or swears, but talks like someone who's much more mature than she really is. Though, she can come off as aloof, or emotionally distant. Right off the bat, Fiona is rather closed off, and very choice-y of worlds. Fiona chooses to hide herself rather than show people what she really is - in both the literal and metaphorical way. This mostly stems from a insecurity, and fear.

Once someone manages to get her out of her shell (Pun totally intended), Fiona seemingly becomes a whole another person. Much less mature, and much more child-like (Whether that's a good or bad thing is subjective). Fiona is actually much more... chipper, around the people she's comfortable with. She's talkative, loud, her movements are spastic, and she simply loves to play. Fiona is extremely curious, and adventurous. True to insects, she likes to explore, find new places, and claim them for herself. She also wishes to become one with the experiences she missed out on. Such as romance, and having actual friends. Which means that she's in a rush to experience them. Though, she's not completely intune with how society and people really work - leaving her in the dark when it comes to some social norms. Which makes her certainly eccentric. She's not a great shoulder to cry on, nor will she ever seek out one. She'll mostly lock herself away until she feels better.

Deep down, she isn't the most emotionally secure. She fears that she has no place among humans - or normal people. What doesn't help is her phobia when it comes to humans - sometimes even Metahumans. She believes that people would disregard her for being, for a lack of a better term, an abomination of chitin and man. She hides this fear underneath the mask she puts on. She hopes to overcome this fear by finding her place in the Academies, and finding people that'd accept her. Though, she knows that she's unlikely to find anyone. Fiona's simply paranoid when around regular people - just waiting for the moment when they toss her away like the freak she is. Another internal gripe of her is that she just isn't strong enough. She's seen some of the powerhouses that the Guardians has, and she's in awe of their power. Fiona simply has no choice but to rely on others for help. She is intimidated by Metahumans that are stronger than her, and will do her damn near best to stay on their good-side. Lest she wants to literally get crushed like a cockroach.

Feather

Name: Feather (Real name: Tiffany Velends)

Appearance:


Age: 17

Power(s):
Feather has the power to manipulate gravity. She can do so in the following ways:
-By creating an orb with a radius of up to 10 feet around herself that makes gravity within weaker or stronger. She can change the effect of the sphere dynamically.
-By affixing a sphere with a radius of up to 10 feet to an object. The sphere makes the object the new target of gravity for all things within (in other words, they are pulled toward the selected object rather than the earth), and the strength of the gravity depends on the sphere. However, it can be changed only while Feather is within the area of effect. Maximum duration: 15 minutes.
-She can throw mobile spheres with a radius of up to 10 feet through the air. These spheres can increase or decrease the strength of gravity working within them, but cannot be changed once thrown. Further, these spheres cannot change the direction of gravity. (Meaning gravity will still be pulling objects in the sphere toward the earth.) The radius of the sphere slowly decreases as it moves away from Feather in a line.
-Feather herself is only affected by the spheres centered on her.

Feather's powers have many limitations, including the following:
-She cannot make spheres in which there is no gravity.
-She cannot make spheres with gravity so strong that it would completely immobilize or wound an average person standing on the ground within.
-The maximum strength of her sphere is directly proportional to that of her body, meaning that exhausting her or beating her up temporarily weaken her abilities.

Personality: Feather is independent to the core, and prefers to avoid forming friendships or other close bonds. She finds trusting others to be foolish. She is exceptionally bright, but just as impulsive, and tends to get in trouble frequently. Her self worth is cripplingly low, and she hates herself far more than anyone else. Often, she acts out just to avoid having too much time to think. She's very curious by nature, the sort of person who becomes legitimately upset when presented with a puzzle she can't solve. She frequently takes things too far when she's having fun.

Bio: Feather's father left her mother before she was born. Her mother struggled to support herself and her daughter, working multiple jobs at once and losing sleep. Feather was often left home alone even as a small child, and when her mother was present, she was too exhausted to play; Feather knew she was a burden by the time she was five years old. And she wanted to help.

She was quick to pick up the habit of stealing things; candy bars from stores she would creep in to on her own, lunches taken from her classmates before they got the chance to eat them. Of course, she was frequently caught - but never more than slapped on the wrist. Who could fault a little girl for stealing to support her overwhelmed mother?

As time went on, Feather's living situation got better. Her mother was promoted at one of her jobs so that she didn't have to work any others. Feather earned a full scholarship into a prestigious private high school. But her urge to steal never quite faded. It only got worse once she developed her powers.

She would take everything she could - cell phones, wallets, textbooks - from her peers and her teachers, then sell what she could online. The act of taking and getting away with it was thrilling to her. But, one day, she took it too far. She managed to get a hold of the keys to the principal's car, and she took it. Unfortunately for her, she was caught on camera. Before she knew it, she was not only expelled, but arrested, and her powers were found out. It was more than her mother could take. She had spent the last decade and a half of her life trying to provide for her daughter; Feather was the center of her world. And, suddenly, she was gone.

It was only once Feather was securely locked up that she was told of her mother's suicide. All alone in her cell, she had all the time in the world to dwell on it.

Name: Atlas Forn

Appearance: Atlas has almost shoulder length white hair, and pale almost white, silver grey eyes. He stands at around 5’11, preferring a black outfit matched with a black hoodie. He has his lip, tongue, septum and ears peirced. He has a ring of hoops both ears and likes wearing golden or silver wristbands and rings. His bottom canine teeth both are made of platinum, and his high cheekbones and strong chin would make for a handsome face if not for the scarring along the left side of his face running from the corner of his mouth to his ear, giving him a permanent grimace. His body is also lined in scars from the incident.

Age: 19

Power(s): Vector Manipulation: Atlas can change the magnitude and direction of an object to move it in a desired way. He is limited to within 35 feet of himself, and it required calculation or else he ends up on his ass. (I think most of us get this power if not I will go into more detail but i feel that's enough.

Enhanced Intelligence: Atlas is able to do complicated math almost instantly in his head. He is also very perceptive to people and their subtle cues as well as his surroundings. While in prison he did as much studying as he could, he actually figured the humans would ask for help a week prior. This ability leaves Atlas to seem either rude or standoffish at times.

Personality: Atlas is calm as they come, he has a rough past but he quickly learned in prison, everyone has a rough past. He never gets into many fights but when he does he gets a thrill out of watching others suffer. His intelligence often makes him appear as though he is not present, or unaware of his surroundings, though he is likely doing complicated calculations or running a thought experiment.

Atlas really isn’t a mean guy if you got to know him, he seems a bit maniacal and can be a bit intimidating but you’ll find if you don’t let that scare you, you’ll have a loyal friend. He’s been known to crack a joke at inappropriate times and often seems as though he has no idea what is going on at all. He isn’t conscious at all about his appearance.

Bio: Atlas grew up in a slums, where he survived with a gang of orphans. As he grew older, people around the slums began to ridicule him because of his status and looks. They would walk the street sneering comments like it was bile as they passed him. Things like ‘With a face like that he must have a rock for a brain to be out on these streets.” along with much worse. Words never hurt Atlas, he never let them see him shed a tear. Until one night the older orphans ganged up on him, with an intent to kill.

In a busy marketplace, Atlas had strummed a small guitar he'd found in a dumpster behind a music shop. It was old and not in the best of shape, but he quickly had it patched up and was making a good amount of cash off the people walking through the marketplace. Word had got around to some of the kids he had grown up with, and now they had cornered him in a dark, dank alley. They began beating the boy until he fell and couldn’t move a muscle. His whole life, no matter the fight, these boys had always beaten him, had always crushed him in the dirt like the ant he felt like. His whole life he had let them walk on him. But has one of the bigger boys put his boot to Atlas's bleeding head and dug in, something broke. Something precious.

The boy ground down hard, and Atlas felt dirt get in the gash along his cheek from where they had held him down and carved into him. He cried that night. Cried for a mother he never knew, to comfort him. Cried for a father to come and find him. And none would come. The boy who had been crushing Atlas’s head was laughing telling a joke to the others, as they had a laugh as well, he dug his heel in and Atlas could hear his cheek bones crack. He felt his childhood fade into memory. Felt the chilling whisper of death as he was dragged from the hole he had been hiding in his whole life.

The boy who played the guitar for change, in that busy market place with a genuine smile. He had died that day. In his place was a monster only told about in storybooks. He felt through the boys boot, felt the blood just under the skin there. Felt the wind as it howled to cover the echos of kicking. The kicking didn’t stop. That's all he wanted as he felt the breath, even come out of their mouths. Hot and slow.

Then Suddenly it all stopped.

Screaming replaced the cover of the howling wind. In a motion the boys who had been kicking him suddenly were hit in the chest with their own kicking power, doubled. Atlas knew any harder than that and he was likely to blow a hole through them. He didn’t dare want to do that. He laughed as the breath they breathed smacked them in the back of the throat, blocking each one's airways. As they rolled on the ground he giggled, blood covering his body, kicking them and tearing limbs off. He was practically giddy when he sunk a finger into one boy's heart silencing his screams.

As he walked away from that alley painted in blood, he couldn’t tell weather it was his or his own. He didn’t care. He walked through those slums one last time, and then left forever. Some people tried to stop him as he walked, asked whose blood he was covered in, he would simply turn to them and smile, the gash in his cheek pouring blood. He stopped at a canal and washed away all the filth. That day on his 18th birthday the real Atlas died. Atlas laughed, when they finally caught up to him, he had left a trail of politicians and other scum in his wake before they finally cracked down on the Gifted.

Personality: Gin is a funny individual who will have trouble taking situations very seriously and his love of music and dance makes him get distracted when fighting. He has a good heart and sticks up for those who cannot defend themselves from evil doers. He is a hard working kind of kid and will train like there's no tomorrow to get stronger. He considers himself an adrenaline junkie and loves excitement and challenges that will test him. Gin is also very tenacious and has a never give up personality and will push himself to his very limit to try and succeed. His imprisoment did leave him with a small bit of depression and anxiety, but he tries to keep it under control.

Bio: Gin was born to average middle class parents and for as long as he could remember, he and his father had the best father and son relationship. They would do so many fun things together and his dad would always tell him how proud he was of him. Gin's father was a police officer and was well respected in the town that they lived in. Gin was a lover of both music, body fitness and comic books as a young child and he worked to fulfilling his enjoyment of all three things. It was his dream to be famous for dancing, fitness training as well as comic writer.

Gin's life however would take a strange turn when the radiation hit him and he was given superhuman abilities. It was only a day after the incident that he had the ability to manipulate the air itself by taping into the power of the dimension of air. The dimension of air excited as one of the elemental planes, which were entire universes made of one element and somehow the radiation had caused Gin to be able to tap into the universe and draw power from it. With his new found powers, Gin decided that he could put it to good use and do some good with them.

He fashioned himself a costume and began to work as a vigilante. Things went swell until his reckless antics made him get caught by the government and imprisoned for his acts of vigilantism. He was unsure of what they told his parents and for the time he was locked away, Gin wondered what had become of them and if they were told that he was dead. Either way he didn't know how long he would be locked up in the place, but then he was given a chance to try and become a hero and get out of the hellhole and Gin took the man's offer. With a new suit that could also play his favorite tunes and new determination, Gin was ready to face whatever villain that this crazy threw at him.

Soldier X

"We're all heroes now... Time to give em' hell."

Name: Alfred Reginald "Soldier X"

Age: 54

Powers:

• Superhuman: Soldier X is a supersoldier, meaning that he's more capable of doing things a normal man couldn't do in battle. He's stronger than the average man, being able to stop objects the size of a truck, he's also incredibly durable, being able to survive fatal falls and be unharmed, faster, more flexible, has a keener sense of hearing, as well as smell, and his mind can compute twice as fast. This can help him survive getting shot or hurt, as well as calculate strategies in a quick span of time.
• Weapon-Expert: Being a highly trained soldier, as well as a fast learner, Soldier X can wield a weapon up to its maximum capabilities. His favorite weapon to use is an advanced Heavy Pulse Rifle, in which he can fire from volleys of plasma energy, issue a charged shot, or fire explosive rounds. Soldier X can modify the weapon to serve whatever the situation calls for.

Personality: Soldier X is basically a veteran soldier. Being as such, he's naturally tough, courageous, and quick thinking on the battlefield. His experiences on the battlefield had made him all the more wiser, smarter, and overall more aware of his own surroundings. He is also a truth-seeker, never resting on any case until he finds out the truth behind anything. Yet if any innocent people happen to be in the line of danger, he will do in whatever mean to keep them safe and unscaved. Overall, he's a soldier who takes no for an answer and will whatever it takes to accomplish his goals... even if that means he has to do it himself.

Bio: Soldier X, known as Alfred Reginald, was born in the rural part of Indiana. He was born to a German father and a French mother, who both loved him quite dearly. While not much else is known about his early life, the 19 year old Alfred ultimately packed his bags and joined the military. He wanted to explore the world as well as helping to save other people from the "forces of evil" as he called it. He performed stupendously in almost every category and hence he was called in to be a volunteer of a new super serum. This super serum was to create super soldiers, making them stronger, more durable, and ultimately to become the ultimate warrior on the battlefield.

The test worked and soon after, Alfred, now being called "Soldier X" as his code name, had received a squad comprised of other super soldiers. He and his squad participated in dangerous top-secret missions in the heart of enemy territory and was able to succeed in every mission, never failing the US government in the slightest. Soldier X was ultimately known as a national hero throughout America and was even offered to become a general of the army, which he refused at that time for being still satisfied with his own squad. For over thirty years had he blindly worked for the US military, bringing in victory after victory...

However, the more Soldier X looked into the true intentions of the US government, their top-secret agendas, their plans, their secret-weapons, everything... the more he began to question them. Sometimes, when he took part in some missions, especially those with little information, he questions himself. He feels as if the government was hiding something from he and the public. And whenever he would ask these questions, he was always scolded and put back into place. But he knew the truth... connections with spies and other government officials have told him the truth... the cold, hard, bloody truth. He knew something had to be done.

So one day, after being briefed on a mission to kill what was said to be a middle eastern town full of terrorists, Soldier X questioned the government's authority, even threatening to kill the mission briefer if they weren't told the truth. Of course, he was denied and was casted out of the military and government. He and his squad were now wanted men. As they began to go into hiding, Soldier X's entire squad was found by the CIA and were ultimately killed. While he, the team leader, survived, he and his entire group were then casted as traitors of the United States and a threat to humankind as they knew it.

It was over for Alfred... He then went into hiding far up to the north, around Montana, to live the rest of his days in total misery and betrayal. For 5 years did he remain hidden from the government out in the wild woods of the north. When the radiation blast hit Earth during his third year in hiding, Soldier X thought he didn't receive anything... only it did. It actually kept the serum that he received decades ago, which was already slowly fading away, permanent, which in fact made him even better than before. His senses were even better than when he initially got the serum. In short, the radiation wave super charged him and also was able to slow his aging process. At that rate, his life expectancy was around the age of 150 years.

However, he was eventually found by the government and thus a massive battle took place. Soldier X felt like he was back in the days of his Prime, perhaps even better before, but even after a mighty struggle, he too was ultimately captured. He was eventually taken back to prison, where he remained like so for several months. He thought he was going to simply rot in jail, get tortured, live in misery till the end of days....

But that was until a certain man happened to come by... and he needed heroes. It sounded a little shaky at first, but this man was serious about it. Was Alfred Reginald given a second chance to redeem himself? To make himself become a hero again instead of a traitor? To become the hero of humanity as a whole once again?

There is only one way to find out...

Murphy

Theme

Name:
Shawn Murray

Nickname:
'Murphy'

Age:
27

Power:
(Allure of the Siren)
Shawn's abilities can be packaged up in a box which can be simply labeled as him being a 'Siren' or beautiful creatures who have been known to have seduce compel other people into their bidding if not their deaths. The eerie similarities are noted between him and the mythological create but to the everyday human, he just a good looking guy. His true power, however, is Persuasion but his appearance just intensifies the whole entire situation.

His looks is obtained from a successful allocation of phenotypes that gives him his breathtaking appearance that borders on the supernatural that is simply ethereal, simply through the lucky dice rolled by mother nature. Having a body that would be eye candy for anyone, if it wasn't hidden behind those pesky things known as clothing. It isn't a myth that being a good looker can get you pretty far in life, however, that is only one part of the entire equation. Your social skills impact a large majority of interaction you have with people, and Shawn is quite well experienced with the art of persuasion, bartering and well... talking really. However, it doesn't to have an additional failsafe to ensure maximum cooperation, by which Shawn is always producing some kind of pheromones which can various kinds to trigger certain emotions. If he doesn't chooses the pheromone that he naturally produces that 'attracts people' to put it simply. Eventually through continuous exposure, whoever Shawn talks to eventually gets addicted to his presence by this ability. His pheromones acting like a drug to other people, filling them with desire and breaking down their free-will by making them addicted so that they would do anything for him.

Personality:
Shawn is the kind of guy who likes to stay up to date with style and is more or less on top of the trend but he does stick to some clothing he particularly likes. He is like most individuals whether they acknowledge it or not is a judgmental person when he meets other people and is fast to draw conclusions. Nevertheless, he is a friendly fellow, a bit too friendly perhaps as some people who would like to say. And it's true, Shawn is quite the flirt and playful kind of guy who does it for the sport and isn't ashamed in hitting on anyone as they are all targets. He was infamous for his flirting during his time in the force but most took it as a sign that he liked them. He often teased his friend's own friends and jokingly made advances on them to embarrass them a bit but nothing too far out of hand.

He fits comfortably within the nice guy stereotype but with a bit more class and charisma, for he likes to talk to people and leads people on a trail. But make no mistake, for this is his everyday behavior so be sure never to fall for his ploys. Most people accept his bold remarks as a compliment and as a sign of him liking you in some sort of way.

However, if you expect to anger Brandon just expect payback to happen but not at the moment. Revenge can be settled later while he is quite adept at bottling his emotions and pulling a solid poker face if the sleeves need to be rolled up. False and exaggerated flattery also is one of his talents that he likes to use when the chance comes around with meeting a rival. When fists do go flying, it's usually him to start the fights with the sucker punch and then never relenting afterward until he feels the need to run. However, all in all, Wazoski is simply a man in the 21st century who is a socialite nothing more and nothing less.

Bio:
Shawn was born on the West Coast of The United States in the state of California. Born to a family with 4 other siblings, John, Calvin, Rose, and Ryan, his life was pretty normal considering everything really. Being a smart student in elementary school and really sociable, he was the social butterfly of school who everyone knew and the teachers thought he was delightful. Having an easy time in school, being friends with everyone he dated a few girls who he liked despite every one of them at his school seemed to naturally like him at the time. He reveled in the safe bubble of childhood but faced his own issues within that bubble as well, questioning a few things about himself as he reached the end of Elementary School. Having a troubling experience with one of his friends called Nathan, who he couldn't help but be glad when he was there. Remembering the hugs he gave everyone, they were the best memories of him but at the time he never knew what that lump inside his stomach was at his age despite his knowledge.

Upon entering Middle School, he learned of his liking for both guys and girls after a simple revelation known as the locker room, but let's leave those memories for a different time yes? Entering High School, he was known to be an academic person who had mostly A's with a B or two in his grades. Participating much in school, he was again one of those students who people knew from his reputation and one of the few students for teacher's liked having in their class or talking to him in general. Having a great time in High School, he participated in school plays, musicals, and several sports such as wrestling and soccer. By the start of his senior year in High School, he had dipped his finger in every piece of the school and everyone knew him and vice versa. However, he liked to keep his sexuality with himself and dated other guys secretly that he liked when he wasn't dating a girl. Forming a steady relationship with a girl called Evelynn in the start of Middle School, they had broken up in their Freshman Year after he found out she was cheating on him since they got together. It was a huge gossip that people talked about that eventually washed over, and Shawn himself found someone else to spend his time with. Dating a guy who he found delightful and the same for the other as well, Marcelino was his High School love who was a Sophmore who graduated a year earlier than him. However, being invited to prom was a good way to out the two to the whole school and have Marcelino win the nomination of the prom King. Living his Senior Year out of the closet was fun, as his teachers and friends were surprised but he still hasn't outed to his family at this time.

Graduating High School with a bang, he went to college and got a Bachelors in Science before teaching at a School. Being quite the popular teacher for his outgoing nature for the teenagers and his attractiveness which no doubt brought attention to himself along with how young he was. However, when the waves of radiation blasted Shawn with its radioactive blasts and changed him completely. Over the course of several weeks, his looks refined themselves and a sharp increase of people likely him which made him initially uncomfortable. Learning to control his powers through conscious decisions, he solidified his friendships with the school. He however, was only caught when the whole school responded to an image of Shawn in a brain scan with intense emotions for each testee. Being arrested under the suspicion of 'chemical weaponry' or even some of the police who he heard with the accusation of 'superpowers' as well.

His arrest and detainment was short as a man came to his cell with a person dawned with a cloak, conversing between the two for a short time. He was given the offer of joining the man in exchange for guaranteed safety from the police, instead of being labeled as a terrorist with a chemical weapon. Obviously, he wasn't a terrorist but the conversations that he heard from his cell created the trench of doubt within himself that made him accept the offer of the man. With the secondary benefit of helping other people as an additional bonus besides not being called a terrorist which was ironic. From facing the possibility of being labeled as a terrorist to saving people was ironic.

Weaver

Full Name: Ajax Barnes

Alias: Weaver

Age: 17

Sex: Male.

Appearance:

"Ajax" [+]

Height: 1,80 [5'11]
Weight: 62 kg [136 Ibs]
Eye color: Hazel.
Hair color: Dark brown.

His alter ego costume is a makeshift vigilante attire consisting of a crimson red hoodie, a full head mask that covers most of his face with the exception of a small opening in his mouth (does not have the symbol imprinted on his mask as shown in the picture), a pair of black leather gloves, whatever clean shirts he can find to wear under that hoodie, a pair of tactical goggles to cover his eyes and lastly, a pair of dark grey, slim fit, combat pants.

"Weaver" [+]

Personality: One could argue that Ajax's personality is his most valuable superpower. While he has to deal with his raging hormones and the everyday life of a kid who's materializing into a fully fledged adult, he also puts a lot of effort in his endeavors to control himself from doing something - anything - audacious. He understands the risk and the weight he's carrying on his shoulders, a responsibility that's a by product of his superpowers, and always maintains himself in the heat of a battle. However, that doesn't always work. There are instances where he might lose it, one of those being the injury or the death of a loved one. At that point, there's no telling what he might do. He'll snap, he'll go catatonic, he'll get distracted. Either way, there's one thing for sure; he'll cause himself harm.

During everyday life, he's a rather polite, but sometimes blunt teenager. While he doesn't gleefully hop whenever the opportunity presents itself, Ajax's rather pleased when he gets to form new bonds with people he trusts. He's very big on wisecracking, and will do it whenever he gets the chance to, sometimes as means of psychological warfare. There are, of course, also times when he truly is dumbfounded by the world unraveling in front of him, making for some greatly timed comedic moments. Above all, he values his family, especially his older sister and will do anything in his power to protect them. Being a kid, Ajax is prone to being manipulated/played by people who specialize in that sort of stuff, but he's very sharp and will catch on pretty quickly.

In terms of intellect, he's not book smart. Actually, his grades are in shambles, sometimes forcing him to reduce his shift as a vigilante in favor of doing homework. He, however, is extremely resourceful and pays close attention to detail, often giving him the edge in risky situations. While pragmatic, Ajax is also an avid comic book fan and believes that superpowered individuals must strive to adopt the moral codes of his illustrated idols. He prefers to reason first and only use his powers as a last resort. If he does conclude that his opponent(s) are not the type you have a talk with, he will use brute force, but never to the point where it becomes lethal.

Background: Born in a fairly rich area in Manhattan, Ajax was born to great wealth, but to a family of neglectful people. Seeing his Mom and Dad's callous behavior towards them, he was taken under her wing by his older sister who raised him by her principles in an apartment she afforded by herself. He grew up to be a very nice and energetic kid, but a slacker at school. When the strange wave field hit earth and his powers first surfaced, it took him a while to get used to them and once he did, he was faced with the problem of how and where to use with them. Considering the growing anti-gifted sentiment which was being fueled by the media at the time, he briefly considered giving up on those powers in the hopes for a normal future. However, he switched paths when he had to use his gift to rescue a woman who was being harassed by a group of guys. From then on, he adopted the nickname of Weaver and decided to stick up for the people of his neighborhood. His costume protected his secret identity, but he decided to tell his sister anyway.

His tenure as Weaver was pretty short-lived however. After four months of vigilantism, he swung too close to the government radar and soon capture teams were sent to get him. He stood no chance. But just as his time as vigilante, his prison days were also pretty short. Two weeks in, he was approached by a mystery man who wanted him to join an initiative of gifted people with potential international implications.

He, of course, said yes. The rest is a story yet untold.

Abilities: Fiber Manipulation - Ajax's gift is his ability to manipulate natural and synthetic fibers. To cram it up in a little nutshell, he can control numerous types of fabric, hence the name he got for himself - Weaver. While he has command over both types, he has a better grip on synthetic fiber than natural one for reasons he himself cannot explain. So, if his adversaries are wearing any type of cheap clothing, body armor or anything made of synthetic fiber, he can momentarily command that fabric from a certain distance. Since this ability stems from his brain, it does not match his physical strength but goes far beyond, granting him the ability to LITERALLY punch above his weight. For example; with the right amount of focus, he can manipulate the suspension cables in Golden Gate bridge and cause it to tumble. He still doesn't have a clear handle on his power, so while it's implied he can do it via his brain only, he uses hand movement to coordinate and target specific fiber-based objects. As awesome as it is, the power does have limits.

Athleticism - Ajax is no gym rat, but he is good at running. While not an ability per say, it sure granted him second place in a state competition and first in a local marathon. He has also learned the basics of parkour during his ongoing run as a neighborhood vigilante, and he has done so out of necessity after receiving some serious injuries in an alley fight with eight members of a criminal gang. Speaking of abuse, Ajax also has a slightly above average capacity of taking a beating, able to match that of a 6 foot tall Marine. It's still hazy as to whether this is a spinoff of his superpowers or just a not-so-unusual quirk in his genetic makeup.

Weaknesses: Ajax controls fiber via his brain, so causing him pain can disable his ability temporarily. The bigger the wound, the harder it'll be for him to recover. Also, while he is able to control synthetic fiber from a fairly long distance (350 feet), he needs to be within 30 feet to manipulate natural one. Due to his powers not being fleshed out yet, he cannot pull or push a conscious being within the fabric all the way (due to body resistance), but can only give them a boost in the direction he wants them to go. He cannot levitate fiber-based objects, but can make them hover slightly above ground level, depending on the fabric. If it's a rope for example, he can make it slither like a snake and command it to jump briefly so that it can latch onto his target. Weaver also cannot manipulate something he cannot see or feel, so in order for his power to work, he must have a clear line of sight of the target. Background noise, gunfire, explosions do hinder his ability, but he's getting better at taking care of that day by day.

The most important thing is that, in this case, Ajax's brain works like a muscle. If he overworks it, then he'll be drained and left vulnerable, so he can't really spam his power. Theoretically speaking, if he was given a chance to manipulate the suspension cables of a bridge as mentioned above, there's a pretty high risk that he could die from the fatigue.

Equipment: Ropes - He has two wire ropes which are usually wrapped around his dark blue protective bracer. The bracer looks like the common orthopedic cast, but it's actually there to prevent the ropes from damaging normal blood circulation and, since the bracer is also made of fibers, it allows him to get a better grip on his ropes. The ropes are thin and can actually be easily disguised, but are not your usual type of wire rope, having a tensile strength of 72 GPa (gigapascals). They can be extended to up to 50 feet. The ropes were given to him as a gift by a world renowned engineer after he saved his life from local street thugs. In order for the wire ropes to launch, he needs to apply the strength of a punch to his forward hand movements.

Baton - He carries a retractable baton. While he is not a master at it, he can swing it hard enough to cause damage, but prefers body shots instead of the often lethal head swing. He is getting better at it though, after studying about pressure points and getting a better handle on human anatomy.

Police Scanner - He has a scanner in his bedroom which he uses to keep track of any criminal activity in his neighborhood.

Aiden MacCullagh

Name:
Aiden MacCullagh

Appearance:

Appearance

Aiden is around 4'9 in height.
He has a slim build, slightly on the frailer side.
His eyes range from silver, light grey, dark grey and black, it is unknown why this happens.
Hair can range from a light brown to black and in-between.
Differences from picture:
Obviously since it is set in modern times the clothing would be different, it would probably be the same colours and simple clothes like jeans, shirt and jumper.

Age:
10

Power(s):
Magnetic Manipulation:
Aiden can generate, control and manipulate magnetism in all of its forms whether it be natural, organic or artificial.

Metal Manipulation:
This is sort of a sub-power to Aidens Magnetic Manipulation as that is what he uses to control and manipulate metals.

Metal Sense:
Aiden can sense the presence of metals.

Personality:
A sweet and thoughtful boy who is generally polite, respectful and well mannered towards others, he is curious and loves adventure. His powers have forced him to grow into a diligent and a tough-minded person as Aiden tried his hardest to keep them hidden and under control from others making him also quite introverted in the process (not due to shyness, more cautious.) Aiden is not a very athletic or sporty person, he prefers his books and paper over a football or basketball, he is naive/ignorant to a lot of things still as he is young and was taken away from both his home and education however this also forced him to learn and adapt to surviving on his own and fending for himself.

Bio:
Aiden grew up in Glasgow, Scotland, he lived with his father and mother along with his 2 sisters. His fathers side of the family was Scottish and his mothers Irish so he had ties in both countries and visited Ireland frequently, he enjoyed the countryside there as it was a contrast to the packed city that he was used to and was a lot more peaceful, it gave him the opportunity to think clearly. Aiden had a pretty normal life, his mother stayed home and looked after him and his sisters while they were not at school and his father was busy working most of the time, but he made time for Aiden and his family when he came home from his work.

Aiden was very close to his family and looked up to his father, before Aiden was born his father was in the military until he met his wife/Aidens mother, he then became a police officer and eventually became a detective. Since he was very young Aiden dreamed of following in his fathers footsteps and wished to protect and serve, Aiden was well loved in his school and he did his best to help people.

So life was relatively normal for Aiden until one day when he was visiting his family in Ireland a wave of radiation hit the earth and as a result Aiden had become one of the "Gifted". He was lucky he was in the countryside because at first it was very hard to control and he had to go through great pain to do so, but after practising he eventually suppressed it to the point that he could return to his school, it was very hard for him during this time, he had to constantly think about everything he was doing and it caused him to be quite paranoid and scared that he would accidentally use his powers, these feelings of stress, paranoia and fear continued to build and build until eventually it resulted in an outburst that would have destroyed the whole school if Aiden wasn't trying his best to stop it and eventually passed out from the strain it put on his mind and body, the next time he opened his eyes he was in a prison.

Dempsey

~My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable~
Name: Dempsey Robinson
Appearance: Standing at 6 foot 3 and bearing the muscular physique of a heavyweight boxer, Dempsey is imposing to say the least. His hair is a bright white, with flakes of black here or there, a result of the radiation wave. Furthermore, his eyes have been greatly altered by the wave, creating a sort of faux heterochromia. Rather than the eyes being different colours, the pupils are simply both expanded and contracted. He just about always has a smirk on his face, especially when his power activates.
Age: 23
Power(s): Dempsey's power is a little abstract. When the wave hit all of the radiation was absorbed into his arms and a small bit of his torso, primarily his forearms. This resulted in his arms being near impenetrable and resulting in a massive increase in his strength. Furthermore, his body has started to generate its own sort of radiation, which he can disperse in large or concentrated blasts through his arms. However, these are rather unreliable and travel in waves rather than in something easy to aim like a beam. His durability has extended to his torso, but not to the amount it did to his forearms. Furthermore, he also has an increased reaction time and has a sort of super speed, but only with his arms and upper body.
Personality: Cocky, smug and arrogant, Dempsey is not your average hero. His main objective in a fight is to make his opponent look like a fool, and to have fun with it. Of course, he will primarily try and protect innocents if they are a factor, but his opponents embarrassment is also up there on his priorities list. He is very sure of his abilities, and is quite keen on making jokes.
Bio: Born in Liverpool, England, Dempsey was practically raised to be a boxer. His father, a former small time boxer who went on to become a coach and later to own his own gym, got Dempsey into boxing from a young age. Heck, he even named him after Jack Dempsey. He'd spend his days helping his father at the gym after school, and later got into boxing training. Of course, when he was finally of age he became a professional boxer in many of the smaller circuits.

He began rising within the boxing world, making a name for himself in the English boxing circuits and later even becoming professional. His father, being the visionary he was, practically forced Dempsey to travel to America and attempt to become famous there. Of course, things did not turn out as planned. He gained a small amount of fame within Chicago, but it never really went past that and soon his fame, and with it his pay began declining. He ended up having to retire from boxing and take up a job as a PE teacher of all things. His now depressing existence continued on until the radiation wave hit. It strengthened him as a boxer in ways he could have never expected and gave him a newly found vigour.

However, before he could fully get back into boxing he was, of course, arrested. He's been in the jail for a few months now, and snapped at the chance to join a team and get out of the place.

Ionna

Name: Ionna Barabash
Appearance:
Though not particularly striking, she does not have rough features either. She looks a bit younger than she is, though is still clearly a functioning adult. Perhaps her most notable feature would be Ionna's rather cold blue eyes, with rather plain brown hair to contrast it. After entering prison she has kept her hair rather short to go with the fairly spartan like lifestyle. She has the rugged look that lets you know she comes from a non extravagant simple but decent family.
Age:
28
Power(s):
Hyper-Intelligence
While Ionna was originally just a normal girl, her basic intellect was increased manifold after her gift was awakened. At default her intelligence is certainly genius, and all of her mental abilities are far above human. She can accelerate her own thinking to further enhance her intelligence, though doing too much of this at once will fry her brain. Through self improvement, she has made it possible to accelerate her brain more and for longer.

Split Consciousnesses
As a sort of psychic, she can possess objects and even people. However, this is done by splitting bits and pieces of her mind apart, allowing her to do multiple tasks at once. By combining this with thought acceleration, she's capable of increasing her efficiency even further. It's much like a computer in function, allowing her to be as efficient as possible. However this ability requires her to possess an object; after she does, she can control it freely, moving it around with great precision and power. If the object is destroyed, there'll be feedback(Though it depends on the object and how much of her mind she put into it) and thus damage. Further, it's most efficient when used on something like a computer for obvious reasons, however it can be used on other things, as she can transform them into brains. Because she controls the objects she possess, she has used this to further enhance her own brain periodically. Uniquely, she can put her mind into the digital world with this gift.

At this current time her consciousness is still tied to her body, so she can't become voldemort, sadly.

Personality:
While originally being a rather simple salt of the earth type, Ionna has changed a great deal after gaining her gift. Because of the nature of her ability, she is slowly losing interest in the material world. Her intellects raw power has led her to slowly become more and more apathetic, though she attempts not to show it. Confinement has not helped this at all, and while her normal personality is rather lively and bubbly, its fading fast. However the prospect of being able to apply her knowledge to create things and solve problems will certainly help her sanity, if nothing else.

Bio:
Ukraine has been one of the least stable countries in Europe for a long time. The crimean crisis and resulting rebellion launched the country into political turmoil. It was stuck between the Russian East, and American dominated NATO. Though it is now 2021, little has changed for the little known yet large Eastern country. Despite this, Ionna was raised far away from such things, in the western portions of Ukraine. Far away from the hustle and bustle of such large cities as Kyiv, she assisted her father in his small business as a mechanic. Despite the economic turmoil, their family persisted on without much issue. Eventually however, the radiation hit- changing Ionna's life forever. One day she awoke to find that she could remove her mind from her body. Not only that, her intelligence had increased significantly. She was never particularly bright, and the sudden shift intelligence changed her personality drastically. Concerned for his daughter, her Father contacted the local police force and attempted to sort things out as the public learned about the new "gifted". This resulted in her almost immediate capture by American agents, who had been monitoring the countries communications in its shadow war with Russia. Ionna found herself in prison, cut off from her friends, family, and father.

Over the past two years, she honed her own abilities while reading countless books on various subjects, all to feed her intelligence. Because of her ability, it was essentially impossible to contain anything more than her body alone. This has led to her being rather independent despite the imprisonment, taking in knowledge for these two years while waiting for her eventual release. The world was changing, and she with it.

Name: Tanya Watson

[b]Appearance:[/b

] Young African American woman with dark skin, brown eyes, short afro, and a athletic body. Tanya is tall for a woman at 5'10 and has a rather unassuming face. She has a great smile that can give the illusion of a outgoing person, but its just an illusion. In the end her appearance is normal enough to blend in.

Age: 23

Power(s): Quantum Precognition

- This ability allows Tanya to see the result of any possible action she can take. These results can be shows as far as 30 seconds into the future which is an incredibly ability.
- Tanya not only is naturally capable of seeing possible futures, but this comes with an enhancement to her own brain. A human brain would generally have trouble trying to quickly process the information of many different futures in a short period of time. Tanya's brain allows her to consider several different timelines within a second. Of course, even she has limits and trying to process hundreds of different timelines at once will take its toll to the point of permanent brain damage.
- In terms of processing information her brain is powerful in comparison to any other human, but she has yet to utilize the ability beyond her powers and simply having a perfect memory.

Personality: If you'd ask Tanya about her personality her response would be "Boring as hell." which she doesn't seem to think will be changing soon. She's generally someone who goes through a usual routine everyday that every University student who work multiple part time jobs do. As a result Tanya finds little time to hang out with friends and enjoy herself. She has few interests, almost apathetic about romance, often wonder about her future and is rather self absorbed. Tanya maybe all these things, but she is rather self aware and tries to at least change in someway everyday. However, in the end everything will stay the same and she continues to wonder about her uninteresting life.


Bio: Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois Tanya Watson grew up in a poor family with two brothers and a single mother. Their house was small and rent was always an issue, but she never hated her situation. Growing up Tanya was always seen as the person who might get rich and do something amazing out of all her family members. This was because of how intelligent she was or at least appeared to be. Her grades were almost perfect and she avoided all the issues teenagers usually are plagued with in her community. In many ways she believed it, but at a certain point Tanya came to realize her future was even more of a mystery than she realized. Almost nothing interested her, but she knew in this world that couldn't last.

Eventually she went to a University with scholarships and picked a major that could get her a decent job. Her days were usually pretty routine until the event happened. The wave of radiation swept over the Earth and into her classroom. She was the only one there who was affected by it. Nothing occurred for the first minute, but soon things changed. Not only did she began predicting what her professor would say 30 seconds into the future uninterrupted; Tanya found herself seeing and hearing what would happen if someone tossed a pen at him. What could happen if she suddenly jumped on her desk and shouted "NEEEEEEEEEERRRRRDDDD!!!!"

For a full day she was unable to tell the difference between her own reality and different possible realities. At first she went to the hospital and many thought she was having a mental breakdown or suffered potential brain damage. Tests that included MRIs concluded that her brain was far different than a human brain. Many governments around the world was looking out for signs like this and kept an eye on her. However, when superhuman related crime began to pick up eventually she was detained as a potential threat. She's been locked up for over a year now and the stay hasn't been pleasant, but at least its something different than the usual.

Name: Heather Tonbel

Appearance:

Appearance

Age: 24 (now irrelevant)

Power(s): Cyberkinesis. All the below requires close proximity to use. She cannot manipulate technology outside of three yards.

- Technopathy: The ability to communicate with and control machines.
- Technokinesis: The ability to manipulate technology by deconstructing and constructing parts into new mechanisms.
- Programming: Able to program and reprogram systems.
- Mechanical Body: Provides both strength and durability. Sensors server as her eyes and ears all around her at varying spectrums. Her powers make room for future upgrades.

Personality: Cold would describe her personality most of the time. Her experiences have not led her to seek other's company much. No longer having a biological body she has to actually put forth effort to feel anything.

Bio: Average would be a good description for Heather prior to the blast of radiation changed her life. Or perhaps more accurately ended it. She was a secretary for a large firm. That meant she did many of the odd jobs that everyone else didn't want to do. Nothing spectacular. This was the kind of work she was doing when the wave passed over the world. For many that turned out to be "special" it meant they got powers and abilities. In the case of Heather it meant her brain was fried in a matter of minutes. Dropped to the ground she was pronounced dead shortly after paramedics arrived.

So what happened to Heather? Her ability converted her mind and soul into digital information. Moments before death she uploaded herself onto a nearby computer. That didn't have nearly the power needed to allow her to think so unbeknownst to her or anyone else she began to bounce around from one machine to another trying to find a "home". Eventually finding a data center with enough processing power Heather became aware again. Compeltely without form her only connection to the outside was through the Internet. Information streamed in and she consumed it like a sponge, learning at a furious pace. Much of the information was useless and has since been purged.

However public knowledge began to get boring and she began to reach out to try and do more. When moving to a location she found that she could physically manipulate technology in the area. Things like cameras and drones were some of the first she used, bringing them to life on a whim. After more than one occasion crashing something she discovered the ability to pull apart and construct various mechanical systems. This lead to her first thoughts about creating a new body for herself. But first she would need to find something powerful enough. Starting with some of the more prominent tech companies she began to steal bits and pieces. It was a slow process without a body but eventually she made a pretty basic body that would walk on two legs. But that wasn't enough.

Moving up, one after another she toppled high level firewalls to gain access to top tier technology and research. Taking control of experimental robots she deconstructed and rebuilt them, upgrading them in the process. Slowly but surely she found and moved some of pieces she would need to accomplish her goal. This second body had what she needed to move out of the web and into a single unit. Free to move about the process of upgrading became much easier. But by now she'd found herself bored with simply improving. She missed the rush and emotions she used to have as a living being. So what does one do then? Become a thrill seeker. And in that time for her kind that meant going to villany. Not like she hadn't already been breaking laws all the time. The ghost in the system became a high value target as she began to wreak havoc for sport. She was an incredibly hard one to capture as she could bail out of the system she was in and vanish to who knows where, leaving a shell rigged to explode. Can't run forever though and she was captured and the digital menace put into storage away from any tech as a way out.

Other: Her voice is similar to the Adjutant from Starcraft II.

Voice

[ColouredCyan]

Michelle "Shelly" Dunnst

Name: Ms. Michelle "Shelly" Dunnst
Pseudonym: Brunhilde Königberg
Alias: Garbage

Appearance: Shelly is 5'3" with curly shoulder length dark brown hair, usually tied up behind her right ear with an aging, but still functioning, fluffy Miffy scrunchy. Exceptionally Dark brown eyes adorn her tan face, dark enough that without good light its tough to see where pupil ends and iris begins. An innocent button nose betrays her age, however her personality will set you straight again. Shelly only wears her own brand and when not in her supersuit prefers comfortable clothing, a big hoodie sporting her logo, sweatpants, an adhesive eye mask to obscure her identity and 2-in-1 chi aligning and posture correcting trainers.

Age: 23

Power: Sensory Persuasion: Sensing Shelly causes temporary changes in tastes and opinions of the sensor, and the intensity of the perception correlates positively with the magnitude of change. For example, passively gazing at or listening to Shelly offers little to no change after a short period of exposure. However the feeling of Shelly against your bare skin has the chance to drastically alter current priorities and occasionally warp perception of reality. Its thought that Shelly gives off an "aura", a complex array of sensory information including but not limited to visual cues, pheromones, voice modulations, tactile stimuli and secretions in sweat that induce over stimulation and under stimulation in both the sensory and memory section of the brain leading to temporary random changes.

It is unknown what effect Shelly has on those with extrasensory abilities, although the link between intensity of the sensing and amount of change to tastes and opinions is likely to hold true.

Shelly is effected by her own talents but as she is more frequently exposed to them is much more immune to them.

Personality: Shelly is a young entrepreneur. Bold, independent, verifiably the best taste in fashion known to man. She's by no means clever though and often finds herself outwitted, nor is she particularly athletic or tough. Shelly relies on her ability to read the situation and read people, diffusing situations with her social skills and her patience. When that doesn't work, things get weird and then sort themselves. Shelly's learnt not to be shy, her behaviour has a more lasting effect on people than her powers do. Despite her associating with more understanding people now, she still finds it tough to truly trust others, and more worryingly, this mistrust has always scaled with compatibility. The best way to describe how close she lets people get to her is at arms length. This doesn't stop her being warm, kind and patient though as she fully subscribes to the idea of treating others how she'd like to be treated.

Bio: The blast of radiation Shelly received 2 years ago barely phased her, post recovery. As a result of her power's subtlety it took her much longer to work out what was going on. 4 break ups, gradually crazy friends and parents; at least work hadn't changed. It wasn't long after the realisation that she might be gifted, that the irony settled in too, you couldn't ruin the taste and opinions of those which had no taste. She quickly rose through the ranks, partly due to her own particular talent for outfit design, partly due to her new found powers of bizarre taste and partly due to her father's reputation. Brunhilde Königberg was the name she had printed on the labels and it was no secret to anyone inside the fashion industry, but was a marketing ploy to make her more successful with the customers; they liked the idea of buying artwork by a fantasy German princess of a "king mountain". Garbage was a secret though, it was through Garbage that Shelly could make contact with people like herself, who would understand when she explained her power and could except her for it. In return for patience, stability and understanding she offered help in costume design, a rare luxury for the government hunted super. Shelly by no means an expert in the some of tech that many are fitted with, but has experience shaping the tough to manage materials a suit needs to be made from and the top of the range tools to do it with.

Archangel

Ezra Collins

---

---

Name:

Ezra Jonas Collins - "Archangel"

Appearance:

He is built like an athlete. He is 6'3' feet tall. A little taller than most people his age. His hair is a dirty blonde, almost brown if it was any darker. His eyes are a pale green as well.

Age:

18

Power(s):

Wing Manifestation - He has bird wings in his back, ever since the radiation wave had hit. These wings make him look like a sort of angel. He has the ability to fly through the air like a bird, and can soar through the skies really fast. They could possibly block rear attacks, though they would be injured like wings from any animal. He can do aerial attacks. Like, drop kicking someone from the air, or clothes-lining someone while flying at them. This could be very useful for scouting out enemies, or other things.

Affiliation:

Guardians (Soon to be a Secret Wave member.)

Personality:

Ezra is probably one of the most cynical Smart-Alecs you'll ever meet. He casually makes witty jokes and one liners, and loves to get under people's skin to see their reaction. One of the best troublemakers you'd meet. He's sarcastic a lot, especially when someone makes a obvious or dumb statement. He loves to play around, and is very irresponsible. He's the very rude and crude wisecracker of the group. When he is angry, he will show it. He has no problem with getting into fights. Considering, he's been in many of them. His feelings about humanity are mixed, he knows how some are innocent. But he really does not like them. Almost forgot to mention that the guy is a narcissist. He really thinks of himself well.

Bio:

Ezra Jonas Collins' life has been filled with issues. He grew up on the streets, with no friends or family. He was just a little kid on the streets. And life was hard for him, and would be even harder once he would become a Gifted.

He was soon brought into a Catholic Orphanage. These were one of the worst type of orphanages to be in. He was bullied by other orphans, they would beat on him. Steal from him, and sometimes just insult him. He would sometimes cry in his room when no one was around. He made one friend, and his name was Charles. Ezra and Charles were very good friends. When Ezra was bullied, Charles would stick up for him. That's until Charles was adopted.

Ezra was angered, jealous, bitter, sad. He was so angry to the point where he started the change from a shy kid to a tough brat. Whenever a bully tried to hurt him, he would fight back. And would usually win with bruises. He started getting in trouble more and more. He even started stealing whatever he wanted, from comics at the store to people's snacks or foods.

At one point, he left the Orphanage. He ran away, and life was even harder for him. Bullies were worse, considering that on the streets there were gangsters, and other people. That's until he met a group of people just like him.

A group of young misfits like him took him in. They stole food from parlors, spray-painted walls. They did whatever they felt like doing. He grew with his little gang. They were his only family, at least for then. At the age 16, he and his friends were caught by the cops, but he escaped. He and a girl named Alexis. They would not cross paths again, and Ezra was alone again. It was him against the world.

One day Ezra was walking down an alley way after running from the cops successfully, he and a bird crossed paths. That's when the wave of radiation had hit. And his DNA and the bird's mixed. He went unconscious that day, and woke up in a hospital. Hospitals were very busy considering that the wave had not just gave people Gifts, it injured people.

It took a while for his wings to sprout. But it was very, very painful. They slowly pushed out of his back, day by day. He was afraid of them, and tried to cut them off, but was only successful in just hurting himself. That's when they really came out, and they were amazing. He could fly, not something the normal person could do. At first, he used these powers for petty theft. And it worked out well for him.

That's until the law started cracking down on the Gifted. Him and other people with these Gifts were arrested. Most of them were barely able to hide from the Police. Ezra was one of the first to be arrested. It was not rather horrible for him, but it was more boring then ever. They barely let the prisoners out of their cells. . A guy named David Peterson had showed one morning, and asked him to become a hero and have a so-called 'second chance' at his life. He didn't really care about this hero business, but if it would get him out of Saturn Prison. He'd take it.
