[OOC] Calling all Supers

[LordofthePies]

I'll probably make a character tomorrow, I seem to have a bad case of the lazies. That is, of course, if I'm not going to just world build

[Jade113]

@Kidd I fixed it up a bit! I accidentally backspaced while not focused on my edit, and it made me lose all of my progress so I had to redo it xD

[Blue2]

@Kidd Would you be interested in making Cori Alexander's handler? No need to be nice to him. Since she hates supers she might enjoy bossing one around, making him do her bidding.

[HowlsOfWinter]

Just want to say that I'm currently working on my character. Will be up in a few hours.

[Dolerman]

@LordofthePies out of interest, what year is this set in?

[Kidd]

@Jade113 It looks good though!! Nice job

@Blue2 Sounds good to me! She likes being able to boss people around hehe

@prussianblue I've got a superhero concept character that I'd like to bring over to this RP. Are there still spots open?

@Dynamo Frokane

I do believe there's still room on this bus. :)

[Blue2]

@Kidd Cool! Want to create some background or do you want them teamed up for the first time?

[Kidd]

@Blue2 Maybe being put together for the first time? It'll be easier for both of us that way, I'm excited :>

[Blue2]

@Kidd Me too! I hope we get to start soon! And that it stays a while.

Jake Star

Jake Star

"A smile is a mask just like any other, some of us just choose to wear it more often."

Basic information

Legal name: Jake Star

Nicknames, aliases, and/or preferred name: Rocky, Rockslide (Alias)

Date of Birth, Age (as of Dec. 2017): January 3 1990, 27

City, Province/State of current residence: Washington State

Gender: Male

Social Class/Community Status: Middle Class, Un-registered

Family/Friends/Pets/Etc:

Bork

Alignment: Anti-Government, Vigilents

Powers:

Geokinesis: Jake can manipulate the earth around him. More precisely he can mold and shape naturally occurring materials such as soil, stone, sand and some ores. He has some control over refined materials of the same type, however, the more refined or altered the material the less control he has over it. For example, concrete or brick is still fairly easy to control, however, things like glass or iron take a great deal more concentration. Items made of steel or special metal alloys are incredibly difficult if not impossible for him to control, as the amount of energy and concentration required becomes to great.

Weaknesses:

Energy and Concentration: Manipulating earth is a very difficult process and depending on what Jake is attempting can be incredibly draining. Using his powers always taxes Jake's body in some way, just like going for a jog or weight lifting requires others to expend their energy. It also takes a fair amount of concentration, the larger the earth the more concentration it requires. He does regain energy with sleep and eating, but if he isn't careful with how he uses his powers it is possible for him to seriously injure or even kill himself. It does seem he is able to increase the base amount of energy he has, but this takes a great deal of practice, which is difficult when you cant expose your powers.

Distance: The farther away an object is that Jake attempts to control, the more effort it takes. After about 100ft it takes twice as much energy and concentration as it normally would, and anything over about 350 feet away is almost impossible for him to control due to the amount of energy required.

APPEARANCE

Height: 5'11"

Weight: 175 pounds

Hair: Dark brown

Eyes: Blue

Detailed Physical Description: Jake is a somewhat tall, thin man with a lightly tanned complexion. His hair is a deep brown with some lighter brown highlights and his eyes are a striking light blue. He generally keeps his hair a little longer, just past his shoulders, and prefers to let it fly in the wind except when he's cooking. His body is well toned, a fact that most find surprising considering the amount of food he eats.

Day-to-day Wardrobe: Jake generally wears a dark t-shirt or a hoodie with jeans and hiking boots.

Typical equipment: Jake always has a knife hidden somewhere on his person and usually a pair brass knuckles. He also likes to keep simple survival equipment like a compass and a hook and some string for

Personality/Attributes

Personality/Attitude: Jake comes off as a happy-go-lucky person. He almost always is smiling and has a quick, easy laugh that a lot of others find intoxicating. A lot of people think of him as an extrovert and just an all around good guy. However, this is nothing but a facade. In reality, Jake is quiet and distrustful. He cant help but see others as threats and never lets anyone get to know the real him. He prefers to be alone with just him and his husky Bork, who he keeps by his side as much as he can. He has a searing hatred of the government, and thus anyone who works for them. He feels resentment towards non-supers, even though he knows it an irrational feeling. He does have a compassionate side, but this mostly only extends to children and animals. He is very intelligent but keeps it hidden out of fear that someone will use it against him. If he was ever truly honest with himself, he doesn't want to see the government changed as much as he wants to see it burnt down and rebuilt.

Skills/Talents:

Mechanically inclined: Jake seems to have an almost natural understanding of mechanical items and tear apart and put back together just about anything with running parts. This does not, however, extend to computers which he finds to be exceedingly irritating and never do what he wants.

Cooking: Due to the sheer amount of food that Jake has to consume, he has become an excellent cook, and can turn even the smallest amount of food into something special.

Tactical Mind: Jake has a naturally tactical mind. He has an innate understanding of combat situations and is good at finding the flaws in a plan.

Charismatic: Even if it is all a sham, Jake is rather charismatic. He has an easy time getting others to like him, and isn't beyond using this to his advantage.

Outdoorsman: Jake loves the outdoors and is constantly hiking the mountains of Washington. Because of this, he has good survival instinct and could last out in the wild for long periods of time.

Well Read: Jake loves to read about a plethora of different subjects that range from highly technical science textbooks, to some pretty raunchy romance novels.

Favourites/Likes: Cooking, animals, hiking, fishing, reading.

Most Hated/Dislikes: The government and anyone who works for them.

Goals/Ambitions: IF he is honest with himself, he wants to see the government torn down and something new put in its place. Although he's not sure exactly what he would want this new government to look like.

Fears: People seeing the real him. Losing Bork.

Place/Type of Residence: He lives in a small, two story house on the outskirts of town.

Occupation: Jake is a cook at a local dive bar.

@CrabInATree my favorite part is his dog Bork, bahahaha. Approvéd!

Raegan Ross

⍚Raegan ⥥ Female ⥥ 21 years old ⥥ December 25 ⍚

"In this world that we live in, you can either be the wolf or the sheep."

Basic Information

---

---

Current location:
Los Angeles, California

Social Class:
Middle class | Unregistered

Family members:
▶ John L. Ross (deceased)
▶ Rosafine K. Ross (deceased)

Alignment:
Anti-Government | Anti-Vigilantes | Pro-Revolutionary

Powers and Weaknesses:
Heat Manipulation - Raegan has the ability to absorb, manipulate, and move heat from one place to another, producing various effects. She is able to manipulate enough heat to create fire. Her powers are limited to the amount of heat available to her in a given area. Thus, she is weaker at night, during the winter season, and in colder places. When using her powers, her hair glows red.

Physical Appearance

---

---

Physical Description:
Raegen stands at 5'6 and weighs around 110lbs. She has a slim and athletic physique. Her body is toned with visible muscle definition, which shows the years she has spent training. Her black hair tumbles down her shoulders in messy waves. Her eyes are amber with a strong yellow tint and visible specks of gold. She has a fair complexion with light traces of freckles across her cheeks, a defined jawline, and a narrow facial structure. Reagen is always wearing a solemn expression on her face. Although her eyes are always stern and focused, you will sometimes catch her staring into space, seemingly lost in her own thoughts.

Day-to-day Wardrobe:
Reagan likes to keep it simple. She will choose to dress for comfort rather than follow the fashion trends of today. She likes to wear a plain shirt under a warm black jacket paired with leather jeans, black gloves, and black ankle boots; she dislikes showing too much skin.

Typical equipment:
A set of daggers and throwing knives.

Beyond Appearances

---

---

Personality:
Raegan is a strong, independent woman. She has a tough personality and a strong demeanor, which is not the best recipe for making friends. She likes to keep to herself and will usually only speak when necessary. Her social skills aren't great, due to the years she has spent by herself. Raegan has an odd fixation on getting stronger and more powerful, and it is not clear whether her morals align with good or evil. At times, she is shown to display acts of kindness, such as helping an elderly woman cross the street and helping an injured bird. Other times, with only a small amount of remorse, she is willing to manipulate or hurt someone to achieve her ends. Although her morals are somewhat questionable, every action she has taken up to now really all boils down to just one desire; the desire to survive.

Skills:

• Combatant: Skilled in hand-to-hand combat. She started training at a young age and continues to do so until today. Raegan is disciplined and dedicated to her training, as she is aware that it is not sufficient to rely on her powers alone.
• Agility: Raegan has quick reflexes and is able to dodge and defend herself with minimal effort. Not only does this rely on her physical speed, but it relies on her ability to make split-second decisions as well.
• Precision: She has a sharp eye; she can use her knife to hit a steady target with deadly precision, though it is not limited to the use of knives. She gets her dose of amusement from beating prideful men at a game of darts.

Likes:

• Warm climate
• Warm clothes
• Warm drinks

Dislikes:

• Winter season
• The Government
• Discrimination against Supers

Fears:

• fear of failure
• fear of attachments
• fear of deep waters

Goals and ambitions:
Raven wants to end the discrimination against her kind. She wants to start a revolution, overthrow the government, and replace the current leaders with Supers. She believes this is the only way Supers and Non-Supers can stand on equal ground.

Educational Background:
After graduating highschool, Raegan did not proceed to college. She wanted to make the most out of her time by honing her skills and abilities. After her parents passed away, her mother's best friend, Mila, moved in and became her mother figure. Mila was the one who taught Raegan how to fight and use her ability to manipulate heat. Raegan trained hard under her supervision, but Mila passed away a few years later due to a heart disease.

Place of Residence:
Ross household

Occupation:
Coffee barista at a local coffee shop

[Zapdos]

@Zapdos The answer to your question is a bit complex.
Most of New Alaska is largely rural, so a remote location would be easy. If he were to live anywhere in the province, however, he would have to be registered- only certified registered supers are granted residence there.
As of yet there isn't a set location where the RP starts, I will update on that soon.
Also, glad to hear he doesn't sneeze ice cubes!
Thanks for asking! :)

@prussianblue

Thanks!

These are some good CSes so far. I actually have another idea for a character as well, so I might end up going that route instead. We'll see.

[prussianblue]

@HowlsOfWinter looks awesome, I like how complex her personality is. Very real. Approved. :)

[Dolerman]

@Zapdos Hey Zappy, long time no see! I'm bringing over my vigilante from the last time (reworked for this setting)

[HowlsOfWinter]

@prussianblue Thank you. I can't wait to flesh out the character and reveal her backstory IC. =)

[Zapdos]

@Dynamo Frokane Hey Dynamo, it's been a while. I don't join too many RPs, but hopefully this one lasts. I forget if it was your character or someone else's that attacked another team member, but either way, less teamkilling might be a good idea :-P
