[OOC] Multiverse Rising: Reborn

Multiverse Rising: Reborn

The Story Up Until Now

About five years ago, the Anomaly took place. In an immeasurably vast multiverse, one universe experienced a strange event, the Anomaly, that could forever alter the future of the Multiverse at large. Something wiped out all the inhabitants of this world, and covered the planet in strange devices that allowed for inter-universal travel called Terminals. The Anomaly also caused Arcadia to become a hub world, a place between dimensions, and as such all those who would normally be cast out of their own dimension ended up in Arcadia. In addition, a mysterious force began dragging powerful warriors from all over the multiverse into Arcadia. This rapidly populated Arcadia with dangerous and powerful forces, who fought for control over the Terminals, which could form the only route home, or a great chance to expand one's power to other universes.

First came the Dark Outliners, an inter-universal organisation tasked with keeping balance in the multiverse. They attempt to limit inter-universal traffic as much as possible in order to retain what they believe to be the natural order of things, and quell anomalies such as this. So when such a massive event occurred, they sent their best and brightest to investigate. They fleet hovered over the planet, and they attempted to investigate both the anomaly itself, and those that had been dragged here. This inevitably brought them into conflict with many of the elements on the planet's surface.

One such element was the New Imperium. Nova, the Star Child, was reborn here from it's death in the Materium of the Warhammer universe. This immensely powerful being at first wondered at the Terminals, and the strange beings of Arcadia. But soon he set about conquering it, with the intention of unifying all universes under a single banner of justice. He called forth armies of soldiers from his universe, powerful superhuman angels of death who wiped out his opposition. This was directly opposed to the goals of the Outliners, and they clashed often based on this, although the manipulative Outliners rarely confronted him in direct combat.

The last and perhaps most dangerous force on Arcadia was the Alliance of Conquerors. This league of supervillains had gathered together in order to take control of as much of the multiverse as possible, an expanding tyranny backed by their immense power. Their original cast included Bowser, Ultron, and Gidorah. These warriors were the greatest enemies to the New Imperium, and the clash between these parties nearly set the surface of the world ablaze.

Eventually, after many adventures, twists and turns, peace was declared. Each of the factions took control of a certain area. The New Imperium took control of the United States, as well as Mexico and the surrounding, smaller countries. The Alliance of Conquerors took control of Canada, as well as Alaska. The Outliners, being beyond petty struggles for territory, remained in space, maintaining several outposts in different universes. Although it is believed that they have several secret outposts on the ground. Sweden is owned by none of the factions, but has instead become infested with creatures called Kolons, who have turned the entire place into a nuclear hazard zone that just doesn't stop exploding.

But peace between these groups is uneasy, and war looms on the horizon. Even as still more warriors and even armies are drawn into Arcadia, further complicating matters. What these new arrivals do may alter the course of history.

An ancient evil also looms. For once, a powerful force annihilated all life in Arcadia. And it's new inhabitants may soon discover the true nature of the Anomaly, and the danger it has brought.

Conablum Labs

Name: Conablum Labs

Leader: Cyano Conablum

Goals: Whatever catches their fancy.

Troops:

*Outward: Outward is Conablum labs personal offensive branch. Functioning much like an army, it was greatly strengthened following the incident which led to entry into the multiverse. Using the PR generated by their
"brave stand" against the multiversal invaders, the Imperium of Man, and using the battle at the original branch of Conablum Labs as a rallying cry, membership increased greatly, with revenge against the Imperium on the troops minds. Originally numbering just over a thousand, Outward quickly grew to over half a million strong, with more looking to join. Now comprising not just of natives of their planet, but also of humans from earth, they have a wide amount of variance in their troops. Containing people from their planet, linked androids, androids created by the imperiums soul bomb, and humans. As well as a number of plain robots, and a branch dedicated to taming the dangerous creatures around their home, such as the quiggle. Though, that hasn't been met with much success, with only one hive having been tamed.

Individually, Outward is split up into five groups, and can be considered a seperate entity to Conablum labs, which is officially considered a seperate entity to Arch Research Industries, though, the two companies are both run by Cyano. Outward is led by Keith, Cyano's most trusted underling. The five branches are detailed below.

Outward: The main branch, focusing on Combat. Each Outward member comes equipped with a Multitool, Saber Cloth clothing, to serve as armor, an energy dagger, and two Cold Fusion grenades. Following arrival into the Multiverse, androids and other robotic members were immediately upgraded to handle the stronger troops that the multiverse had to offer. The organic troops however were put under stricter training, and were secretly administered various serums to make them more resistant to mind altering or controlling entities. While it's mostly dependent on how strong willed the individual in question is, it does make it more difficult for one to turn them against their allies.

Medical: Serving in tandem with Outward, the medical branch provides medical support to Outward in and out of battle. All of them are trained both in medical practices, but also in mechanics, so as to perform on the spot reperations to Androids and the like. They come equipped with a miniature medical station for on the go medicine and repairs. Though, most often one would find them in between the front and back lines of a battle, protected on all sides, in an encampment. When in the encampment, they have full access to all their healing supplies, and are quite good at what they do.

Building: A recent addition to Outward. Due to an accident leading to a universe with a material known as "Source", utilized by "Archineers" to build temporary defenses, consisting of walls, turrets, traps, and helpers. Conablum Labs did not take much of anything from the universe, but did manage to get ahold of "Source". They were able to use it, but not being Archineers themself, their abilities with it were greatly lessened, only being able to build walls and turrets. Where as one Archineer could change the tide of a battle, Conablum Lab builders require multiple people to be effective, and are mostly good as support. Used in Tandem with Outward and the Medical Branch however, and all three become a powerful force to be reckoned with.

Research: Outwards research branch. Seperate from Conablum Labs research branch, Outward focuses on collection and observation. Setting up multiple outposts across Arcadia, they have documented numerous forms of wild life, coming from universes the world over. Though they lack the research capabilities of the Conablum Labs research teams, they have proven to be effective in taking down wildlife. Thus, they are more akin to hunters then anything. They come equipped with an Arch Six shooter, an energy spear, and a number of traps built for several of the dangerous creatures to come out of the multiverse.

Magic Corp: A small group that uses magic. They were created in secret, and trained under Keith. They know all the same magics as Keith, and can be considered highly dangerous. Numbering no more then ten at a time, they are able to step between shadows, and hide within them. Able to move between three seperate planes, they can move through reality, in between reality and any shadow dimensions found, and within any shadow dimensions. The only thing they lack is Keiths most useful ability, "Bonding". Though, that doesn't make them any less deadly.

Fleet: The only part of Outward that hasn't advanced too much. While the technology in their ships has improved, allowing them to move better and shoot faster and more accurately, the Fleet still stands at a mere twenty planes and 100 crew members at any one time. To make up for this, they are trained to perfection. Any Crew member is capable of performing the same tasks as the main branch, the medical branch, and can take on any job that is needed of them within their ship. Each ship is crewed by five different members. A Pilot, Co-pilot, two gunners, and a spotter and medic. Any crew member can take on any of the positions.

*This does not take into account, that over each lab, there is an orbital bombardment array, both to deter attackers, and to destroy the branch should it be beyond help. They are protected by a force field reverse engineered from Kolon tech. Their range is rather short however, only able to hit anywhere within twenty feet of the outermost wall of a lab or Conablum Labs building.

Important Members:
*Keith: Head of Outward and Cyano's personal Assassin

*Agonious: Deadland Guard and highest physical strength. Intelligence SEVERELY low

Rease Arch: Cyano's Daughter, now confined to an Android body. Following in her mothers foot steps over the last five years, she has proven to be quite capable.

Tactical Advantages:

Organization: Conablum Labs and Outward are highly organized. Every branch is trained with the other branches tactics and abilities in mind. With plans and strategies thought up daily, to prepare for any contingency.

Technology: Conablum Labs technology is considered highly advanced, especially weapons wise. Specifically, they have two main types of weapons, Energy, and Hard Saber Cloth weapons. Energy weapons run on Cold fusion to produce highly damaging bolts, or blades. While Saber cloth is an incredibly strong material that refracts and breaks up light and energy. Furthermore, Saber cloth can be used as an armor, and comes in two different forms. Soft Saber Cloth, and Hard Saber Cloth. Soft Saber Cloth is unpiercable, refracts energy and light attacks, and can cover ones entire body. However, it does not stop the kinetic energy of ballistic attacks, leaving it's wearer prone to bruising, and internal bleeding. Hard Saber Cloth removes the weakness of Kinetic attacks, but is completely unflexible, and is incompatible with Soft Saber Cloth. Thus, Hard Saber Cloth leaves a weakness at every joint on it's wearer, while protecting the center.

Competency: To ensure success, all Outward and Conablum Lab employees are required to take mandatory classes and exercises in common sense, and basic knowledge. As well as a mandatory class every three months to update them on the newest tactics, and how they work with the other branches, to take down threats. Thus, most members of Outward are very competent in what they do. Though there are a few bad eggs.

Linear Plane Teleportation: Conablum Labs has a system that allows for Linear plane transport to almost anywhere within their territory. It is near instant.

Shifters: Reverse engineering the captured Grimlock, who lost his life with the million in the Imperiums attack, Conablum Labs was able to add an upgrade to their androids that allows them to "Shift". While it certainly isn't on the same scale as Grimlock, it does allow them to change their appearance, and attributes, which can buff certain aspects, such as strength, or speed.

Tactical Disadvantages:

Hatred: Most new members carry a hatred of the Imperium of Man, due to their actions leading to the deaths of one million of their friends, family, and people in the blink of an eye. While in battle this can be an advantage, it is very difficult to get them to work with the Imperium, should it ever be required. Less Scrupulous members may even forgo their lessons and tactics to take at least one of the Imperium out in the heat of battle, which can lead to their death.

Mostly normal: While they can hold their own, a single Outward member is not very strong. Rather, their strength comes from numbers, with them acting optimally in a squad of five to seven. In those numbers, they are rather deadly, but if seperated, they are rather vulnerable, and will not last long.

Lazy: Cyano is, rather lazy. While it can run itself, Conablum Labs and Outward do take orders directly from Cyano. Thusly, it can be rather slow when she is unmotivated. Which is often.

Origin: Original Universe

[thewizardguy]

Name: The New Imperium
Leader: Nova, proxied by Vulcan
Goals:
Attain multiversal order and peace by conquering all opposing factions. Provide a safe haven for all from the dangers of Arcadia. Spread into all other universes, granting them freedom and order, and doing so by force. Eradicate the forces of evil and chaos, and any aliens that might oppose their efforts.
Troops:

- Grey Knights
Perhaps the greatest warriors of the Imperium, the Grey Knights function as the Chamber Militant for the Ordo Malleus, and they are tasked with defeating the forces of chaos. On Arcadia, they are the Imperium's greatest and most high-ranking warriors. They are only deployed to face grave threats, or to defeat the forces of Chaos whenever they emerge. Merely 100 of their number have arrived on Arcadia, but those are 100 of the best the Chapter had to offer.

- Ordo Custodes
The personal guardians of the Emperor himself, the Custodes are the most powerful warriors in the Imperium. A Custodes is a custom-built superhuman, a process far more refined than the mass-engineered Astartes. But 12 of their number exist in Arcadia, but they are each terrifying warriors, able to level entire armies. During their time in the Imperial Palace, the Custodes refused to wield weapons or armour, containing a Chaos Rift spewing horrific abominations with nothing more than their bare hands. Now that Nova has told them to stop being idiots and use their fancy combat gear, they are truly a force to be reckoned with.

- Dark Angels
The first chapter to have been created by the Emperor, the Dark Angels serve him loyally. They were split during the Horus Heresy, and many of their number fell to the influence of Chaos. This has made them secretive and dedicated to redeeming themselves, hunting down those individuals that betrayed the God Emperor. In Arcadia they arrived at a time of need, their great battleships hovering over the battlefield and annihilating the enemy. Now they are mainly in charge of the air defences of the New Imperium. While they have but few ships, each is like a fleet unto itself, and it is speculated they hold the combined firepower to cleanse the planet of all life if they wish to do so, and potentially even destroy the planet itself. They number 400.

- Salamanders
The sons of Vulkan are perhaps the kindest, and strangest of the Astartes. They live on Nocturne, a planet that would be called unlivable by practically any other group. The entire planet is covered in lava-spewing volcanoes, and liquid water is practically nonexistent. The adapted space marines have jet black skin and red glowing eyes, as well as an immense resistance to heat, considering burning napalm and flame throwers no more of a threat than a warm wind. Contrary to their demonic appearance they are also the kindest of space marines, and they take great pains to minimize civilian casualties. They are also well known for their skill with technology, even standard tactical marines being accomplished smiths and engineers. Originally the most numerous of the Space Marines on Arcadia, two companies of the Salamanders were slain in the great battle with the Conquerors as they took the Imperial Palace. They number 300.

- Legion of the Damned
The souls of those who die in battle against the Emperor's foes serve even in death. These phantom warriors are born from the absolute loyalty of the Space Marines, as their will to fight is reborn in new bodies. They materialize where they are most needed, their bodies nearly indestructible and their conviction absolute. The Legion of the Damned is legendary, and one of the most terrifying weapons of the Imperium, as there is nothing but a momentary psionic ripple to prophecy their coming, and they appear to be able to manifest at any place on the planet, provided there are other Astartes there in need of assistance. Their numbers are indeterminable due to their nature, but it is believed that no more than 100 can manifest at a time.

- Black Dragons
The mutated successors of Vulkan, the Black Dragons possess long bone spikes on their body. Like all Space Marine bones these are harder than steel, and warriors of the Black Dragons often encase them in Adamantium to turn them into lethal blades. The chapter specializes in it's jump pack tactics, moving rapidly into melee and annihilating vulnerable locations. They are used in strike teams, moving in and annihilating an important target such as a leader, engines of war, or important fortifications, and then moving away before enemy troops are able to rally against them. Their use has declined since the end of the Multiverse War, but they remain an everpresent threat, a looming sword aimed at all who would oppose the Imperium. They number 150.

Important Members:
Kitten, Lord-General of the Ordo Custodes, personal protector of the Man-Emperor
Kaldor Draigo, Supreme Grand Master of the Grey Knights, leader of all military efforts within the Imperium
Vulkan, Primarch of the Salamanders, leader of the imperium in proxy of the Emperor
Nova, the comatose Man-Emperor of the Imperium
Azrael, Supreme Grand Master of the Dark Angels, leader of the space fleet of the Imperium

Tactical Advantages:

- The Kolon Project
Early on during his days on Arcadia, Nova managed to befriend a group of beings collectively and individually referred to as 'kolon'. While these are merely clones, and the original escapes him, the clones proved to be of incredible use. These curious and amiable creatures are innately immensely talented with engineering and technology, and find great joy in putting things together. While their nature makes it impossible to employ them in mundane work, such as mass-produced weapons, Nova makes sure to psychically send them ideas and blueprints for exciting new conceptual devices. This allows the Imperium to construct incredibly complex and dangerous devices in very short periods of time, although there are often a few.... quirks. Such as it being pink, or shooting rainbows instead of plasma. Most within the Imperium believe that the Kolon Project is merely an acronym, or the name of a laboratory, and are unaware of the creatures' existence.

- Fortifications
As one of the first factions to truly dig in their heels in Arcadia, the New Imperium has some of the most impressive fortifications. Their realm is protected by great walls, turrets, and many outposts. To attempt to conquer the new Imperium one would have to march through tons of highly fortified locations, an uphill battle with seemingly endless enemies. Their vast artillery cannons also make settling anywhere near their borders a dangerous prospect.

- The Golden Throne
One of the most powerful psychic beings most would ever encounter, the Emperor of Mankind has the power to strip entire worlds of life with a single burst of psionic energy. Or at least he did, at his prime. The Golden Throne he now sits on vastly augments that power, allowing him to manipulate the fabric of reality itself. Most of his time is spent fighting the Chaos Gods with this immense power, but if the Imperium is ever in grave danger, he can perform acts of 'divine intervention', although such things are rare. Furthermore, the side effects of his battle with the Chaos Gods is a protective force that severely weakens psionic beings attempting to harm servants of the Imperium while on Imperium soil, as well as warding off demonic or chaos-aligned beings and weakening them. This great beacon can easily be sensed by any even remotely magical or psionic being on the planet, as well as being picked up by technology designed to study energy fluctuations, the fabric of space-time, or other such matters.

- Unity
Originally, the Golden Throne was created so the Emperor could carve passages through the Warp which could safely be used to transport ships and people without having to brave the wrath of Chaos. Effectively, he wished to emulate the Eldar Webway. While he was interrupted then, he succeeded in Arcadia, calling these passages Unity. Unity can be used to travel from any one location within the Imperium to any other, so long as one has access to a functioning terminal. Transportation is vastly faster than light making it effectively instant on a planetary scale. Terminals for Unity could hypothetically be used from anywhere, although few exits outside the Imperium. Beings directly opposed to the Imperium's wishes may find themselves ejected from Unity if they attempt to use it, leaving them stranded in the Warp. A quite dangerous prospect indeed.

Tactical Disadvantages:

- Civilian Population
Most of those who were brought to Arcadia, or came there of their own volition, were powerful warriors. But some were mere mortals, and even many soldiers and fighters were unfit to face the impossible powerful threats of Arcadia. The New Imperium formed a safe haven for all who wished for sanctuary, and it's borders contain a large civilian population. While ethically the right thing to do, this puts them at a severe disadvantage, as they have far higher resource demands in the area of food and water and other such essentials, and need to protect this civilian population in the event of war.

Origin: Warhammer 40K

Linus with Nerf

Name: Linus Carpenter

Appearance: Linus is a brown-skinned, brown-eyed young man with curly head hair that would be thick if not for constant grooming (which would be offscreen in the RP), as well as a smooth, unbearded, and perpetually boyish heart-shaped face with thin lips, unlike his father. His build is tall and healthy, with thin but well-muscled and athletic limbs, as well as calloused palms that contrast with the otherwise smooth hairless skin. His favorite clothing is modern wear; a tough T-shirt and jeans over which is worn a Carpenter's apron, and of course, tough combat boots underneath.

Age: 2000, but appears 18.

Species: Human and Divine.

Gender: Male

Personality: Linus, being born from blood, tears, and earth, used to feel distant from humanity, but has grown to love them, due to his long centuries of experience. However, despite said long centuries, he still hasn't grown out of adolescent rebelliousness, and although loyal to his family and their cause, is a bit harsh towards their Earthly followers, with the Catholic Church, despite being his main allies, getting the brunt of his annoyance, due to their acquisition of money and power and certain...interpretations of the holy writings.

Linus is also Openly Bi.

Bio: Linus was born, fully formed, clad in a white robe, from the blood of Yeshua bin Yosef, mixed with the tears of Mary Magdalene at Golgotha. However, his emergence into the world was overlooked because of the great events that happened some days later - at the same time that the Ressurection happened, Linus was already wandering upwards to Syria and Asia Minor, seeking answers to the question of his existence. Several years later, he reemerged in Greece, at the city of Corinth, where he was part of the fellowship of Priscilla and Aquilla in the early Christian Church, before leaving to wander east, towards Parthia/Persia and India, finally reaching China a century or two later, where he fought with Sun Quan and the Kingdoms of Shu and Wu in the Battle of Red Cliff.

He stayed in China for a few centuries more, then, after hearing rumors of what happened to his family's Church in Europe, raced back there, taking several decades to reach the region, where the Western Roman Empire had fallen and the East was in dire straits. Apparently, Judaism had split into three religions, each claiming to be the true voice of his Grandfather, and which were warring with Polytheists and Zororastrians and Machineans. Each of the religions had their own merits - and that's all he would say about that - but he was rather annoyed with the successors of Priscilla and Aquilla, the Catholic and Orthodox Churches, who despite praising Priscilla as a Saint, completely and utterly forgot that she was a female leader as well, one who held power over men even after 1 Timothy was written.

Swallowing his irritation at this, he put himself in the service of the Catholics, doing charitable jobs for the Church and fighting bandits, sometimes non-lethally, sometimes not; he wasn't his father. That said, though, another source of his anger were the rumors that his mother was a prostitute, but that was dealt with by a pact with the Church - they would stop spreading those rumors, in exchange, and this was also to keep the balance of power in Europe - he would bestow the Church's Holy Relics with the largest portion of his power, reducing him to the level of a 'supernaturally-gifted human'. This later turned out to be a mistake, as this resulted in the Western Nations spree of colonization and imperialism throughout the world, which only ended in World War II, where he aided the Allies in taking back the Spear of Destiny from the Nazis.

After this, Linus would abandon Humanity for a while until 2016, only to find himself regretting things as the religious scene had degraded in his absence. But before he can interfere, his Grandfather gave him an errand; go to the wider Multiverse to prevent the destruction of Humanity on his earth. For, you see, terminals have already opened to Arcadia-1, the signal of a new danger to the various worlds!

Abilities:

Change Water to Wine - Wine, despite the bad rap it gets, is a natural disinfectant, and in a situation where water might be dirty and carry all manner of nasty diseases, the ability to turn water into wine means that you can turn even swamp water into something drinkable.

Loaves and Fishes - Linus takes a piece of solid food and splits it into several parts; each part then grows to the size of the original piece, increasing the overall amount of solid food. This can be done as long as Linus has energy.

Heal Sickness and Injury - Self-Explanatory; Linus can knit together wounds, regenerate lost limbs, and heal sicknesses both magical and mundane.

Exorcise - Self-Explanatory again; Linus can remove corrupting, negative, and chaotic magic from a person or small place (the size of a normal american bedroom). Note that Greater Daemons and Daemon Princes cannot be one-shotted, but they can be contested.

Demonic/Negative Chaos Energy and Magic Immunity - Linus is completely immune from magic that has a Demonic, Negative, Chaotic or otherwise Eldritch source, especially if said source is innately corrupting/damaging to mortals. And, yes, this includes Warhammer 40k Chaos Energy. However, if he were pierced by, say, the Anatheme, his immunity to Chaos would not protect him from being injured, and, if pierced through a vital place, being killed.

Mundane Skills:

Medicine, Carpentry (including use of hammers for combat), Linguistics, Philosophy and Theology, Charisma, Fireworks Making.

Equipment:

- Pouch of Medicinal Herbs, most of them edible so as to work with Loaves and Fishes.
- Leather Carpentry Apron enchanted to withstand steel
- Hammer (powered by divine might)
- Wooden Sword (powered by divine might)
- Nails
- Five Loaves and Seven Dried Fishes
- Water Bottle

Universe of Origin: Generic Urban Fantasy Earth.

The Demon Firebrand

Name: Firebrand, Red Arremer Joker
Appearance:
Personality: Firebrand is an old, proud soldier. Though evil, as is his nature, he is almost knightly in his conduct and seeks only to loyally serve under a powerful master that is able to take care of the Red Arremer clan, having given up both ultimate rularship and unlimited power long ago after finding them not to his liking. Not much surprises or excites old Firebrand anymore, but the thought of battling a hero worthy of his respect makes his blood burn.

Abilities:

Physical - Firebrand can fly, his headbutt is enough to shatter solid stone, and his claws are strong enough to allow him to comfortable dig in and grip any solid surface.

Fire Breath Magic - Firebrand can breath fire, which manifests in several different ways. A stream of fire, fireballs, Fireballs that seek home in on a target (Homing Fire), a faster explosive fireball that can shatter stone (Buster), a slower but more damaging ball of fire (Darkfire), Lava (Claw), and a spinning vortex of heated air solid enough to stand upon (Tornado).

Summoning - As the leader of the Red Arremer clan he can summon gargoyles of the clan to his side from the Ghoul Realm. Red Arremers are weaker than he is, not as agile, and only know basic Fire Breath Magic (fireballs). They're proud and loyal warriors, seeking only to defend their master.

Devouring Souls - Firebrand can consume the souls of the defeated in order to heal himself and regain his stamina. This must be done quickly, as souls do not linger in this world for long if they linger at all. Souls can be stored in special demon crafted bottles, but these lose their hearing properties and are just used as Currency in the Ghoul Realm.

Equipment:
-Five Sheets of velum, upon which a magic user can inscribe spells for Firebrand to use later. Once the spell is used the Vellum becomes blank and can be used again.

-Five seperate magic talismens, only one of which can be used at any time by Firebrand. The Crown talisman increase the wielders luck when it comes to money, the Skull makes it more likely for souls to linger, the Armor helps to protect the user from damage, the Claw increases the power of the users magic, and the Hand makes magic easier to use.

Origin: Gargoyles Quest/Demon's Crest/Ghouls and Ghosts/Namco X Capcom <---- Presented in chronological order.

Bambietta "Bambi" Basterbine

Name:
Bambietta "Bambi" Basterbine

Age:
At least 100 years old

Species:
Quincy

Faction:
Dark Outliners

Gender:
Female

Personality:
Bambietta is a particularly sadistic individual, evident in how she screams in joy as she slaughters her enemies. She is not above attacking her male subordinates to vent her frustration, sometimes bringing them into her room under false pretenses before killing them without remorse. She does not believe in fighting if one has already thrown away one's life. Bambietta refers to herself as the self proclaimed "leader" between her and some of her fellow Sternritter, and dislikes being abandoned by them and finds it quite embarrassing, in such cases she explodes the nearby environment in a destructive manner and implies she will reduce the area to flat land to bring them out.

Abilities:

The Explode

The Explode (爆撃 (ジ・エクスプロード), Ji Ekusupurōdo; Japanese for "Bombing Raid"): Bambietta has the ability to create bombs. Her explosive attacks cannot be blocked because her attacks are not bombs made of Reishi; they are Reishi that turn anything they make contact with into a bomb itself. However, her attacks can be deflected before the explosion occurs if hit by a sufficient force. This ability allows for omni-directional attacks, such that Bambietta does not have to actually target an opponent and can inflict significant area damage. By using her power, Bambietta can set off explosions within her close vicinity. Additionally, she can generate explosive energy around her, which radiates outward in a large globe and causes heavy damage to her surroundings.

Reishi Manipulation: As a Quincy, she primarily absorbs spiritual energy from the atmosphere, and combines it with her own spiritual energy to form weapons. She has an easier time collecting this energy in environments with higher concentrations of Reishi such as in Soul Society or Hueco Mundo.

Immense Spiritual Power: Bambietta's spiritual power is on a level comparable to or greater than that of a captain-level Shinigami. She is powerful enough to fight several Shinigami simultaneously, including 7th Division Captain Sajin Komamura and his lieutenant, Tetsuzaemon Iba.

Bambietta's Spirit Weapon.
Reishi Sword: Using her abilities as a Quincy, Bambietta can concentrate both spirit energy and particles in order to transform them into weapons. Her favored weapon manifests in the form of a short ornate broadsword, somewhat reminiscent of a Chinese dao, with a forked blade in the style of Zulfiqar. Using this sword, she can bifurcate multiple Shinigami and their respective Zanpakutō with ease.

Blut Vene:
By making Reishi flow directly into their blood vessels, users of this technique can drastically increase their attack and defense power to inhuman levels. However, despite the significant danger this potentially presents to one's opponents, Blut possesses one major flaw: because the independent forms of the technique for attack and defense operate using two different Reishi systems, they cannot be employed simultaneously. The acquisition of Blut depends on the blood of the Quincy. Pure-blooded Quincy are able to obtain it naturally.

Hirenkyaku:
Hirenkyaku (飛廉脚, Flying Screen Step; Viz: "Flying Bamboo-Blind Leg") is an advanced Quincy movement technique, allowing the user to move at high speed by riding on the flow of Reishi created below their feet.[1] Essentially, it is the Quincy equivalent to the Shinigami's Shunpo and the Arrancar's Sonído.

Bambietta: Vollständig
When this is activated, a substantial amount of Reiatsu is released, resulting in the formation of a towering column of energy that ends in a large Quincy Cross, from which Bambietta emerges in the Quincy: Vollständig after the column shatters. In this form Bambietta develops large wings and a halo in the shape of a star-like Quincy Zeichen floating above her head. According to Giselle Gewelle, because of her idiocy and the power she gains from this form, Bambietta could end the whole battle against Soul Society before it really starts.

Flight: Using the Reishi wings generated by the Vollständig, Bambietta gains the ability to fly at high speed

The Explode (Enhanced): While using Quincy: Vollständig, orbs of Reishi form underneath her wings. She can release these Reishi spheres from her wings, sending large quantities of them into her surroundings. Any item that comes in contact with these Reishi orbs becomes a bomb and explodes after a brief delay.

Universe of Origin:

@Gentlemanvaultboy I approve of your character by the way. You can post him in the char bin!

Is he part of a group or is he solo right now?

[Gentlemanvaultboy]

Right now he is masterless. His old master was killed, turned into a puppet by another demon lord, then killed again by Arthur and a coalition of allies.

[Savato]

Alright, no problems with that!

[Letter Bee]

I may not have the time for this game after all, sorry.

[thewizardguy]

Please post all character sheets here, it seems we've only had one. Regardless, I'll be putting up the opening post early tomorrow, so try and get your stuff approved by then.

[Letter Bee]

Savato convinced me to come back.

[Nightknight]

Name: Mortainius
Nicknames/Titles: The Magnificent, the King at the end of the Rainbow, the Vibrant Terror

Appearance: 1.bp.blogspot.com/-RV5FC6CSAJA/UWN0JWF.. Note: His Colors and designs change and are in constant flux

Personality: Mortainius is...a bit eccentric to say the least. He is quite egomaniacal, with a passion for fashion and theatrics, but often too blinded by his own hubris to notice even the most glaring issues in his schemes, often times not thinking his plans through and going on instinct rather than knowledge. He has illusions of grandeur, but if it weren't for the colorful array of powers he possesses, he would be immediantly laughed offstage by any self-respecting individual regardless of morality. While he is undeniably deranged, he is prone to spouts of petty anger and isn't above doing petty things to others who have scorned him, even if it would be more advantagous not to do so. In otherwords, it wouldn't be inaccurate to picture him as a psychopathic man-child. He claims to be the epitomy of evil, even though he has a shockingly low tolerance to personal attacks.

Abilities:

Special Physiology: Mortanius is a skull infused with chaos magic, as such he has all the same immunites that an undead creature would have, i.e. not having the need to eat, breathe, or sleep, and granting him various immunities to poisons, nerve attacks, enviremental conditions, etc. However, due to his ties to unpredictable forces, his skull is highly protected by a plethora of magical barriers that can deflect most mundane attacks and has limited regenerative abilities, able to resurrect from ash, making it very difficult to permenatly kill him. Due to a combination of this and his offbeat nature, he is practically immune to all but the most powerful of psychic energies and is highly protected from other sources of chaos magic such as the Warp. The only known magic capable of breaking through his Chaos protection is an equal amount of Law/Order magic, chaos's complete antithesis.

Body Integration: Mortanius is little more than a floating halloween decoration without a proper body to manipulate. As such, Mortanius always requires suome form of strucure he can take control of. Mortainus thus can integrate with any non-living organic or inorganic material, such as dead bodies or machines, to use as a makeshift "body". Though it doesn't neccasarily have to be humanoid, in order to use his preferred magic item, the Rainbow Rod, he needs to possess some sort of appendage that acts simarilly to an arm.

Equipment:

Rainbow Rod: The Rainbow Rod is a powerful and near industructable artifact overflowing with chaos magic created by Mortanius himself. The rod contains seven powerful diffrent rays, based on the seven colors of the rainbow, each carrying with it a particular set of powers. However, despite the immense power this rod contains, the effects are never exact. Whenever Mortanius uses the rod, due to the unstable energy, the power of the rays could work in unpredictable ways, not work at all, or even backfire. While the powers of the Rainbow Rod can be used for mundane purposes such as conjuring minor non-living items such as clothes and knick-knacks, trying to use it on any bigger scale is always a gamble. Listed below is what each of the rays do and what happens when there is a "mishap'.

Red: Creates a ray of pure heat. Can melt through most metals and alloys with ease. Mishap: Can litterly explode in face (never damages the Rod).

Orange: Bestows super strength to one or more individuals. Can make even a normal human capable of punching through dreadnought armor. Mishap: Can make those affected go berserk or raise anger levels.

Yellow: Produces massive amounts of electricity. Mishap: Acts as an EMP, cannot use the Rainbow Rod again for a small duration.

Green: Can regenerate organic material and causes plants to bloom. Can also be used to conjure either a small forest or giant vines to attack Mortanius's enemies Mishap: Disentagrates flesh and causes plants to die. Does not affect non-organic material

Light Blue: Can create a minuature Category-5 Hurricane to decimate the battlefeild. Mishap: Dispells Oxygen in a large radius.

Dark Blue (Indigo): Saps target strength and vitality. Cannot Kill in and of itself. Mishap: Saps user's strength and Vitality. Temperarily puts Mortanius to sleep.

Purple: Transforms any none magical resistant non-organic material into another, such as turning lead into gold. Mishap: The user (if non-organic) is transformed. Otherwise, it has no effect.

White: White is made by using all the other Rays at once. Rarely does Mortainus ever use this, and only in the most dire of circumstances. The combination of energy is higly volatile, even more than usual. When used, the Rainbow Rod can't be used again for a number of days. Mishap: Can destroy the user and everything around them. Can potentionally kill Mortanius.

Allegiance: None...yet. (Secretly wants to prove himself to the Alliance of Conquerors)

Edit: His Theme Song is Bonetrousle

Edit #2: The original image no longer pops up, therefore I decided to use a different image

[Nightknight]

@thewizardguy Here is my character concept. Picture Skeletor with a hint of Papyrus and that's the basic idea.

[Absolis]

@Nightknight

I think some of the powers may need to be toned down a little bit. Mostly red and yellow. Perhaps white as well, otherwise it's a fairly interesting character.

[Flamelord]

Here's the first of things. I'll get the other chars later

Faction

Name: Goa'uld Star Empire
Leader: Supreme Commander Ba'al
Goals: Conquest of the Multiverse, exploitation of the populations therein, other general evilness
Troops: Jaffa - The Goa'uld ground forces, these are essentially made to be cannon fodder. Their plasma weapons aren't particularly effective, but they do have some level of toughness to them due to the Goa'uld larva that they play host to. They are also very loyal to their ruler, whom they see as a God.

Kull - The elite shock troops of the Goa'uld Empire, these are warriors specifically bred to kill, and they're more like berserker machines that you point at whatever you want dead, and then let them go until they get killed or keel over from their body shutting down. They tend to be equipped with energy shields and plasma weapons, and even a single Kull can be a formidable foe.
Important Members: Supreme Commander Ba'al - The leader of this whole shebang. Cunning, ruthless, actually an alien parasite, a self aware egotistical and almost cliche evil megalomaniac

First Prime Teal'c - Ba'al's First Prime and a Jaffa. He is talented, extremely loyal, and would fight to the death for Ba'al.

Qe'tesh - Ba'al's Queen. She's also a egotistical and cliche evil megalomaniac, but without the self awareness. Ruthless, merciless, power hungry. She'd stab her own husband in the back for power if she felt like it.
Tactical Advantages: Reverse Engineering - The Goa'uld have shown a marked ability to take other peoples stuff and adapt them for their own purposes, as they did back in their home universe. This can include technological developments on top of discovered ones, and while it may take some time they can make great strides.

Getting real tired of your Machiavellian BS - Due to the nature of Goa'uld politics, rife with backstabbing and powr plays, the Goa'uld have become quite adept at deception, underhanded tactics, and doing sneaky stuff to take out their opponents and get what they want

Loyalty - Beyond the squabbling up above, the hierarchy that comprises the common society is very much loyal to whomever they swear fealty to, even to the point of seeing Ba'al and his fellow rulers as Gods. It took many years and calamities to shake this faith, and Ba'al has done his best to prevent that from happening this time around.
Tactical Disadvantages: A Band of Thieves - The people at the top have this annoying habit of stabbing each other in the back, which can be a general hindrance on the whole united front schtick. Weakness is a liability.

Rigid Doctrine - Did I mention these guys are egotistical? It takes them a while to adapt to new opponents using tactics they haven't had experience dealing with before.
Origin: Stargate: Continuum

Saten Ruiko

Name: Saten Ruko
Appearance:

Appearance

Personality: A normally outgoing and friendly person, who is superstitious and has a knack for getting involved in things that aren't usually her problem. She is good at reading the atmosphere and a bit shameless when it comes to her friends. She is possessive of the power that she has gained for herself, but the slippery slope she embarked on through the use of the Level Upper has begun to balance out now that she is no longer under its influence
Abilities: Aero Hand - An Esper ability that allows one to ceate ejection points for air on an object with a touch. This can be used to propel objects through the air, or to simply create blasts of air when an object cannot be moved. There tends to be a delay depending on the user, and the strength is also dependent on a users level. Originally restricted by her use of the Level Upper program, she was given full access to her innate powers by Nova
Equipment: An MP3 player with lots of music and the Level Upper program
Origin: To Aru Kagaku no Railgun
Theme Song: optional

[Nightknight]

@Absolis Better?
