Marvel REBORN [4th Generation] iCheck

[BrutalBx]

I'm interested, maybe working in a child of Namor, wandering the Earth in search of answers

[Omega Man]

Fuck it, I'll throw my hat into the ring. Got a few different concepts.

1.) An illegitimate son of Loki. Calls himself the Asgardian. Primarily uses illusion magic and cunning to trick his opponents, rather than trying to go mano-a-mano with them. Has taken up superheroics to try and make his human mother proud of him, and to get his mythical father to notice him. He's an older character I originally used in one of DrewVonAwesome's Rps, that unfortunately didn't go anywhere.

2.) A new Iron-Man, though this one is a full android, a design by an embittered Tony Stark to ensure that there is always an Iron-Man, and one with his own stamp on it (he hasn't taken being replaced by RiRi as well as could be hoped) This character isn't interested in being a superhero, much preferring to drink and party - who does that sound like? - but his programming doesn't allow him to ignore crises or crimes, and forces him to risk his own life to protect others.

3.) A female Union Jack. No big concept here, just like Union Jack.

@BlackSam3091

1.) The bastard spawn of Loki could be cool. I think I remember that RP, was that where I came in at the very end with a male Hellcat born to a mother who was originally Hellcat and "an actor father of little importance"? LOL

2.) A booze drinking fully robotic IM would be sweet, more like his daddy than he knows. Would you make him steel colored?

3.) Somebody went with a 'Union Jackie' in one of my RP's that never made it to an IC. This one could totally work as well.

@BrutalBx

This would be a nice addition to the cast.

Possibly, I do remember your Hellcat character, but I can't say if it was for that RP or not.

I'll probably throw a sheet together for Loki's kid later. I should still the old design somewhere, and it wont take to long to edit to fit this RP.

Prince Faen Lokison

Spider-Man was busy, but don’t worry, I got this.

Name

Prince Faen Lokison

Alias

He hasn’t picked one. The media calls him the Asgardian when they’re being complimentary, or Kid-Loki when being scathing.

Age

21

Powers

Faen's greatest weapon is his genius-level intellect. While having about an average knowledge of technology and science he is an incredibly cunning planner and manipulator.
Due to his mixed parentage, he possesses enhanced strength, durability, stamina and resistance to cold. While nowhere near superhuman levels he is physically more powerful than an average human.
He has also become a keen student of magic and the mystical arts, with an affinity for illusions. Due to his youth and the fact that he is entirely self-taught he is by far from the most powerful mage in the world, but with training and guidance he has the potential to become incredibly powerful.

Weaknesses

Faen, while not quite a coward, detests being involved in a physical battle. He will do everything within his means to keep the fighting at a polite a distance as possible. Couple this aversion for a fist fight with a complete lack of close quarters combat training and you have the recipe for quite a liability in the front lines.
He is also in the habit of overestimating his abilities, especially dangerous with the potentially destructive magics he manipulates. He often underestimates the intelligence of those around him, which can quickly lead to his downfall.
Faen plays his cards close to his chest. A good trait for a poker player, a poor one for someone on a team. Faen will formulate then act on a plan without telling his team-mates, treating them like pawns in his machinations.

Personality

Cunning, Cocky, Witty

Experience

About six months.

BRIEF Bio

Born the son of Sarah Johnstone, of Midgard, and Loki, god of trickery and mischief, Faen was always going to struggle in our world. He was conceived twenty years ago, when Loki was hiding out on earth after failing once again to usurp the throne of Asgard. The God grew weary of licking his wounds, yet wasn't ready to begin his schemes once more. To alleviate the boredom, he decided to emulate his brother Thor, and take up with a mortal woman. He found Sarah, a waitress living in Los Angeles. She was a weak-willed woman, more than willing to receive Loki, who enjoyed wrapping her around his little finger. Soon she fell pregnant. Loki stayed with her the entire time she carried the babe, until the day of birth. As she lay in the hospital bed Loki declared he was leaving her. She begged him to stay, but nothing she said could dissuade him. The only concession he would give is that he would name his son – "Prince Faen Lokison," before disappearing down the hospital corridors and out of Sarah’s life.

Weak and broken hearted she may have been, it was obvious Sarah still loved Loki. She told the boy, and anyone else who happened by, that he was the son of the God, and destined to rule both Asgard and Midgard. Most didn't believe her and mocked mother and son for what they seen as her mental instability. Those who did believe her either hated or feared the boy for his heritage to evil. The children were the cruellest, constantly mocking or attacking Faen. Despite being stronger than all but the largest of men he was never a fighter, and accepted the beatings and took their taunting to heart. Despite these hardships, it wasn't all unhappiness. His mother loved him, and encouraged him in all things. At a young age, he realised he could affect cosmic energies, what his mother called 'magic'. He had a voracious hunger for knowledge, and he would devour any tome or textbook he could get his hands on (admittedly very little, but he made up for that shortcoming with boundless enthusiasm) He started supporting his mother’s small wage packet by performing small magic acts or sleight of hand tricks for tourists. It was a hard life, but they got by.

The years past and Faen grew to become angry at the father he never met. He was still taunted by others, but he no longer meekly accepted their abuse, meeting it instead with a caustic wit and a skill for illusion. While Faen became a powerful young mage, his mother wilted, due to her broken heart. She became ill, but the doctors couldn't find a cause. Then, sometime after Faen’s twentieth birthday, she passed from this life to the next. Faen sat at her bedside the night she died. Just before the end she elicited a promise from her son, for him to do something good with his life, just like she always knew he could.

To complete the promise Faen has decided to defend the world that his father has long sought to conquer. He has decided to become a hero, in the vein of Thor or the Avengers. Only time will tell how this will work out for him.

Key Differences

To be fair I don’t know much about the Asgardian of comics lore, or what’s going on with the canon Loki just now, so I’m assuming there’s gonna be a lotta differences here.

Sample Story Arcs

Faen has to fight his dad. Maybe dealing more heavily with Asgardian stuff. If there’s no other applicants for mystical characters I could also do a storyline where he inherits the title of Sorcerour Supreme from an aged Dr Strange.

Supporting Characters

Loki, other Asgardian threats.

Notes

Faen is Norwegian for devil, or in some places bastard. Loki obviously meant it as a joke, but to his son it seems a strangely fitting name as he is the bastard of a devil.

Faen has no secret identity as he has no one in his life he feels he needs to protect. His alias, Kid Loki, comes from when on his journey to New York he stopped in at a gas station. The station was being held up by an armed robber. Thinking quickly, he illusioned an image of an angry hulk standing outside the station, roaring at the thief. The thief instantly dropped his weapon, surrendered and wet himself. The security videos of the incident, and the eventual reveal that it was Faen and not the Hulk who was to thank for the save, went viral. On one message board they called Faen 'Kid Loki’.

@BlackSam3091 1000X yes. Superb sheet sir.

@The Kid Lantern You say the sweetest things.

[Divine Darkness]

@Divine DarknessI liked it, but I'd like it more if you took out Gabriel Stacy from the supporting cast. The compacted history just makes that whole thing more convoluted and he's got a lot of baggage [and wasn't his mother a Gwen clone?].

~KL~

@The Kid Lantern

I haven't seen anything that suggests that Gabriel and Sarah's mother was not the original Gwen Stacy. But, I also do not collect comics like I once did when I was much younger.

If you really want me to take Gabriel (and Sarah) out of it, I will. I'll just have to come up with another story arc for my character.

@The Kid Lantern

I was considering making Brenda Drago my character's mother.

Team-up arc with a certain fast-talking Asgardian illusionist?

I might do Howard the duck

@Divine Darkness

She looks cool! After reading up on Gabe and his sis, I think it struck a nerve because it basically made Gwen out to be a ho. I mean, who sleeps with one of her friends dads? I was also confused about their age but it was said they had accelerated aging and were really only 5-9 years old.

Saying Gwen cheated on Pete is bad enough, but then they want me to believe she cared for the twins in secret while still doing well enough in school to keep attending?! Right up until she died?! Idk why I thought she was the clone Gwen...

If you really wanna use those characters have at it. It's just that the history is so convoluted even the writer wanted to retcon it during Brand New Day immediately afterwards lmao

[BrutalBx]

Namor

Name:
- Samuel Leonard “Sam” McKenzie

Alias:
- Namor

Age:
- 25

Powers:
Atlantean Physiology – Sam’s body is specially developed for underwater conditions, granting him specialized blood circulation to withstand freezing temperatures and highly developed vision to see clearly even in murky ocean depths. This hybrid physiology means he can survive indefinitely underwater or on land, though he would still need occasional contact with water to survive.

Superhuman Strength
Superhuman Speed
Superhuman Stamina:
Superhuman Agility
Superhuman Reflexes
Superhuman Durability
Aquatic Healing
Underwater Breathing
Augmented Vision

Hydrokinesis: Sam has the ability to manipulate the water around him. As he is still only discovering the true extent of his abilities, this is currently limited to generating water and simply moving it via hand gestures. Extensive training may lead to him being able to manipulate the moisture in the air or possibly even effect the weather.

Weaknesses:
Water Deficiency: When not exposed to water, many of Sam’s physical attributes gradually decline and can reach a point where he possesses only a small fraction of his powers. Sam's strength, stamina, and durability are affected most and, at their minimum known level, are much closer to the levels possessed by the vast majority of other Atlanteans. Renewed exposure to water will immediately restore his abilities.

Oxygen Imbalance: Sam has demonstrated a vulnerability to oxygen imbalance when remaining too long in either water or air, resulting in manic-depressive mood swings.

Personality:
Unstable - Probably the most important facet of Sam's personality is his instability. Due to his bi-polar disorder, he is prone to mood swings, fits of rage and depression and a lack of focus.

Intuitive - Sam has a knack for outside of the box thinking and very much follows his gut and instincts rather than thinking logically (this is mostly because he doesn't really trust his own thoughts).

Kind - Above all else, he is a generally kind individual with a lot of compassion for his fellow man. Though is kindness does tend to give way to something else if he suffers an bi-polar episode.

Experience:
Six months

BRIEF Bio
Madness is a funny thing. Many years ago, during a heated and legendary battle; the King of Atlantis, Namor the Sub Mariner was chosen to wield a shard of the Phoenix Force. The Phoenix Force is one of the oldest known abstract entities that represents life that has yet to be born. Unlike other members of the Phoenix Five, Namor was prone to fits of instability and during one such episode, he would use his new powers to bring life to a former lover that had perished years earlier. Unbeknownst to Namor, the woman June Severn, was pregnant when she had died. Once she had been brought back, she had to go into hiding to protect herself and her soon to be born child. Adopting Namor’s civilian name of McKenzie, June gave birth to young Samuel nine months later.

Sam was raised in Rockaway Park, New York. Thanks to some backing by a friend, his mother had managed to carve out a nice little life for her and her son. Sam wanted for nothing, he was not a spoiled child but there was very little he did not have. For the most part, he was just a regular boy except for his susceptibility to mood swings. Doctors diagnosed him with bi-polar disorder and prescribed him a strict routine of medications and therapy. Sam found a talent for rugby but his real passion was swimming. He felt so at home in the water, even more so than when he was on land. He also regularly attended the gym and jujitsu class.

Life turned on its head one evening when Sam took his boat out across the shore. Something beneath the water began to rumble and soon enough from the murky depths, two figures came forth; an Atlantean traitor and Sam’s father, Namor. Of course at this point in time was unaware of his heritage. As Namor, now aged and vulnerable began to falter in the fight. A sudden urge took over Sam and he rushed in to help, through Namor’s guidance, he unlocked his Atlantean abilities and defeated the foe. After the battle, Sam and Namor talked deep into the night, with Namor revealing the truth behind Sam’s heritage and that he had been watching him since he was a boy.

Unnerved by this turn of events, Sam fled New York, wandering from city to city trying to make sense of his life.

Key Differences:
- This Namor is far more human than his predecessor, with the crux of his stories being about his emotional and mental state, both of which are incredibly fragile. His story is about exploring the impact of bequeathing terrifying power to someone so unstable but still inherently good.

Sample Story Arcs:
Rage of the Seven: As Sam continues his journey of self discovery, he finds himself in Alaska working on a fishing boat. When a disgruntled worker threatens the small town in which he has settled, Sam takes matters into his own hands but can he control his powers when his illness takes hold?

Ocean Dark: Sam returns to New York after his sabbatical and must contend with an army of disgruntled Atlanteans who despise surface dwellers. Has the time come for Sam to take on the mantle of Namor?

Supporting Characters:
- Namor: Dramatically aged thanks to a prolonged period of time above water, he serves as a voice of reason for his son.
- Attuma: A commander of a Atlantean terrorist cell.
- Tigershark 2: A child of Tiger Shark and enemy of Sam.

@BrutalBx Accepted! I think we've got enough people to warrant an OOC. I'll try and get on posted up today! Still room for anybody lurking!

[Divine Darkness]

Had some doubt last night about the Green Goblin as a good idea for this game, and thought of scrapping it for another hero concept.

But, tonight I'm back on track.

• I now want her father to have injected her with Goblin Serum to save her life from a rare terminal disease.
• Since Phil Urich has been mentioned I was thinking of perhaps modifying the effects the Serum would have on my character.
• One of the story arc's I might like to try writing/playing out is a 'Goblin War'. Hobgoblin and Grey Goblin would be involved along with maybe a new Menace, Goblin Knight and Goblin King. Hell, maybe even a Gold Goblin.

I was thinking that Leroy's former employer could be a Hydera.

Yes, that is Hydra with an e since they wanted an emphasis on Hyde powered soldiers.

Or that is a joke.

[Omega Man]

If I fall asleep tonight before finishing the opening OOC post, I'll get everything finished in the morning. Promised the kid we'd wake up and play For Honor on PS4 together before he goes to his grandma's, but it's one player unless you play online so I'll have time.

~KL~

[Burning Kitty]

it's one player

@The Kid Lantern

Just the way I like my video games.

I think I have found my character for this, putting the Ms. Hyde on back burner.

I haven't written a cs for it yet. That thing is amazing for a science experiment hybrid of two science experiments.

[Omega Man]

Wtf and it's actually gonna happen in the comics?! Instead of bringing young X Men to the present they should've just got a younger Wolverine...
