"We're young and we're bad"





Welcome, so I thought about doing a roleplay where our characters are teenage super villains. There are many Teen Titans and Young Justice roleplays on the Guild, but ones with teenage Super Villains don't seem to come around often. So the Young Devils are a team of bad teens who commit all sorts of crimes ranging from thievery to murder and many other types of crimes. Members are villains for various reasons, but the team's goal is to get money, power and become the most infamous teams known to superheroes. In this world superheroes and super villains exist alongside the team. It is simple, heroes are enemies and other villains can be both potential allies and enemies.

This rp takes inspiration from the Teen Titans, Young Justice, Suicide Squad and Secret Six series from DC Comics.

Now to set the tone


The story
To keep it simple, our characters are young independent villains who may or may not know each other, but they are brought together by a strange entity that can hack into any electronic and there is nowhere our characters can hide without it finding them. With the threat of exposure and being incarcerated for life, our characters have no choice, but to be on the team. The entity's real identity is unknown, is it a human hacker, an alien or demon? That is a mystery. It only goes by the name The Presence and it demands obedience and knows our characters' deepest secrets. But with the promise of fortunes, murder and power, The Presence offers many rewards for the team members' loyalty and service.

rules
No god-modding

OCs only

This rp is low casual so I won't go full grammar Nazi on you, but I expect decent grammar and no one line posts.

No speed posting.

No heated arguments in the OOC

Be respectful

I am lenient on violence and profanity, but don't go too far that it makes the rp unapproachable for players.

Be creative

Have fun

@Weird Tales
I am very interested and would like to try this. Power's not very original, but me and my good friend worked it through and liked it.

Alias: Loud Love

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Appearance: Young, pale and lithe boy with somewhat unproportionately long limbs and slightly elongated oval-shaped cranium - but nothing far beyond the norm. Appealing, slightly effeminate face, wider-than-usual hips, small hands and long, long hair reaching slightly below the hip might help to mistake him for a girl, but the falseness of that assessment is proven really easily, seeing as he does not wear any sort of clothing whatsoever due to the nature of his power - however, some parts of his skin, especially chest, temples and the zone around the mouth are covered in strange, black tatto-like patterns of complex geometrical figures.

Personality: Vicious, Playful, Whimsical but Loyal, Confiding

Powers: Explosive Teleportation, Increased Durability, Super-Sight.
Explosive Teleportation - Loud Love's body and brain generate a fantastic field of quantum instability that allows him to essentially be in many points of space at once due to a specific sort of probability manipulation - at least that is how he himself explains his ability. Whenever he makes a conscious or unconscious effort of will, the field agitates the fabric of time-space and then, faster than in a blink of an eye, without any buildup, special effects or strange sounds except for one, Loud Love just ceases to exist in one point and immediately appears in the another place of his choosing.
What makes this already potent power a truly horrible force, however, is the fact that matter and objects at the destination point of the teleportation do not just change places with Loud Love or cease to be. Instead they are extremely violently displaced in the direction and vector of his choosing - for example, if he teleports into a wall or even a free space that is filled with nothing but air, the volume of rock, air or metal equal to the volume of his body is very quickly pushed away from it's previous position to make place for Loud Love, and he can effectively control the shape and direction in which all this material will be shot out. It is possible to concentrate all of the displaced material into an very thin 'ray' that will be utterly terrifying in it's penetrating power or force it to be expelled in an explosion all around him, take shape of a cone or wide line. A very fancy-looking technique that Loud Love implements, partially for show and partially as protection from enemy fire is a series of lightning-fast teleportations that make up an impression of him moving frame-by-frame, each new jump accompanied by an extremely powerful blast of air that might even put out a person's eye at close range.

Of course, the ability can also be used on living targets, with obvious gruesome and almost hopelessly fatal effects - an especially jolly show that Loud Love likes to put on is teleporting so that only his finger or fist is phasing inside of a person's head, with a compressed jet of brain and bone immediately rupturing forth out of his temple or crown of the head.
The only drawback discovered by Loud Love yet is that he can only teleport himself, without any sort of clothing or gear on his person.

At the point of his departure, air quickly fills in the emptiness left by Love's body, producing a sound somewhat like a thunderclap.

(If it is required, i also have an actual weakness for this power. Say a word and i'll add it.)

Increased Durability - Loud Love's flesh is incredibly dense, his blood pressure is very high - though his wounds close quickly, not allowing for lots of blood loss - and his system excels a normal human's one in general endurance and durability - while nowhere near the levels of actual "brick" superhumans, it is enough to compensate for sudden and often drastic pressure changes that come after teleportations, cold that he suffers without clothing and sometimes save him from a small-caliber bullet in soft tissue.

Super-Sight - Loud Love posesses better-than-perfect sight and sense of perspective, able to view minute details at quite long distances, see at night and notice slightest changes in observed scenery. This is absolutely essential for the use of his power, which requires a big deal of precision and concentration to teleport over large distances or through any sort of semi-transparent obstacles, such as smoke or glass. Additionally, Loud Love posesses lightning-quick reflexes, allowing him to almost subconsciously teleport out of the way of some blows and lines of fire - oh, and makes him extremely suitable for being a marksman.

Equipment: None, obviously - though sometimes he uses something that he can pick up at the moment.

Short Bio: He was a pretty okay boy - somewhat of delinquent but a nice kid at heart. Got bullied sometimes for his looks but not nearly often enough to traumatize him. Suffered from some parental neglect but it didn't bring him low. Had a GREAT interest for music and really, really loved and adored a particular pop star, very very hard. Once they had a show in his small town, but oh, great sadness - he couldn't afford the ticket! So the guy came as close to the open-topped concert hall as he could, climbed on top of some nearby building and watched the performance from there with infinite glee, wishing so, so very hard that maybe by some miracle he could be there, on stage as close to his idol as it was possible~
The wish was granted immediately as the guy suddenly warped inside of his most favorite artist in the whole world and burst out of him in a shower of gore and guts - and then, he proceeded to teleport into every single place that he cast his gaze upon, always with horribly deadly results because he first of all turned his attention to people, trying to ask for help. Now THIS - this traumatized him alright. The murderous teleportating escapade went on for many hours and half of the globe until it finally stopped when the kid fell asleep. After that came a year or two of hiding from the authorities and people, with every attempt to reenter society resulting in another disaster that happened every time he became strongly agitated until at some point the guy just snapped and went off the deep end after a period of fugue and crippling depression and became what he is now.

Other: Thinking about it.

You mean that personification of chaos? Fun times.
I sure am interesting how people here are going to handle magical powers without them stealing spotlight from the rest of the team.
@Weird Tales, I have a character idea of my own. Basically, a daughter of a Medics Sans Frontiers activist that was killed in the armed raid on his clinic in South America that discovered her powers trying to save her father, that was later "rescued" and taken in by a local walrlord styling herself after "Lady of the Dead" image who became her mother figure and teached her how the world is the "dog eats dog" place where only power matters. Her power would be genius-level practical intelligence, super-powered creative intuition, possibly to the point of likeness of CAD system in her head(especially when it comes to things related to biology), and improbable to the point of being seemingly supernatural practical medical skills.

Her alias, for a given value of such(it's rather informal, since she preferred to keep out of spotlight) would be "Sawbones".


If that's ok with you, I'd write a detailed charsheet.

@Weird Tales ok, I think you've lost me there. How am I even supposed to "abuse" her powers in the fight? She's largely non-combative addition to the team, her direct value in combat being limited to being a combat medic.

Won't she like, be able to know how to kill any man she sees by lightly touching specific points on his body to direct the bloodflow and adjust the pressure or doing similar hokuto-no-ken bullshit? Or use her biology mastery to grow superhuman minions in tubes or do things like constantly keep her body on the and beyond the peak of human capabilities through manipulation of endocrinal and nervous system? Or just brew contact poisons that will immediately kill anything that they touch and keep them nearby at all times just in case of a combat breaking out?

I am not really complaining or criticizing, considering my own power, simply asking because you might be belittling the nature of your ability.

you edited your post, but I remember you mentioning her having incredible probability determining skills or having superhuman thought processing skills. Anyway if she is just a combat medic then that's perfectly fine and I don't see any problems.

It's going to be pretty hard to explain, but basically he is the great grandson of a mandrake, the grandson of the offspring of a witch and a mandrake and the son of something else I've not decided yet.

It's based a huge amount on this, more info will be revealed as I write.

Well now that you mention it, I might add pressure point attacks to her panoply of combat moves, since it seems perfectly in theme for her to have.
Minions, alterations and poisons are fine and dandy, but those are not DIRECT actions - she'd have to actually, you know, spend some time and effort crafting them, and that's part for the course for any "mad scientist".

<Snipped quote by Progenitus>

I most certainly did not edit it after your post.
>probability determining skills
>superhuman thought processing skills
Curious. What do you mean by that? Some sort of bullet-time perception-effect and superpowered analytical power listing enemies' weaknesses and providing the motions to defeat them?

@Mr_pink
I strongly urge you to make a list of spells your character knows, or at the very least concise list of "themes" and how good he's at particular ones. Otherwise the power you're proposing is "do whatever by spending a little time", which would encroach on a spotlight of everyone else in the team.
