Story

"If aliens visit us, it would be much like Columbus landing in America. Ask the Native Americans how that turned out"

Stephen Hawking

If you were to ask people when the end of world began, some would say it occured when humankind began sending messages out into the void. Most would say the world ended when Outsiders invaded in 2035. Humanity tried to stand against this enemy. Did it's best to hold them back. Diplomacy failed first, military might failed after. Earth's mightiest heroes were all that could fight the invasion. In the end, even Earth's superheroes couldn't stop them. Earth formerly surrendered on April 25th, 2037.

The Outsiders began to occupy the planet, mining what resources that could be mined. Stone, precious metals, wood, water. Human kind had been beaten into submission as Earth began dying slowly. Soon, Earth had only one hope left to look to. Though it's government, it's military, and it's mightiest heroes couldn't stop them, there was only one power left that stood a chance at stopping the Outsiders....it's most powerful villains.

While the Earth's heroes fought the invaders, it's villains watched and waited for the moment to strike. Looking for a weakness as the most brilliant studied and the most capable undermined the invaders at every turn. Only monsters can kill monsters, in this time of desperation humanity can only look to the worst of the worst.

Setting

Scotland Penal Colony
The Former United Kingdom

After the Outsiders subjugated the Earth, Scotland was formed into a massive prison colony. Massive walls surround the country, machines patrol the borders, watching for any escape attempts. Many of Earth's villains were sent here, some becoming lords of their own slums, others hiding in the shadows and looking for means of escape

N A M E : Marcus Blackthorne

s p e c i e s Human

a g e 25

h e i g h t/ w e i g h t 6'4" and 235 lbs.

g e n d e r Male

P O W E R

• Eldritch Magic: Acting as an agent for the Babylonian god Sirsir, Marcus is capable of using magic of any kind so long as he learns the spell, the name, and the purpose of the spell. He's only limited to his willpower and his own knowledge
• Persuasion: Upon offering patronage to Sirsir, Marcus was granted the gift of 'The Voice'. Using this power, Marcus directly channels the will of Sirsir through him and can command people to do as he pleases. However, this ability only works if Marcus can speak and only if his target(s) can hear him and understand him.
• Unholy Vessel: In times of great need, Marcus can become the avatar of Sirsir and take his form for a very brief period. However, doing this saps all of Marcus's will and leaves him in a coma like state for several days

w e a k n e s s As stated before, Marcus is limited by his willpower. The more powerful the spell, the more will is required. Marcus is also half mad due to Sirsir's influence, sometimes losing control and allowing Sirsir to fully control him or being controlled by Sirsir fully by force. In order to keep his powers, Marcus also must make blood sacrifices every New Moon to feed the ancient god or it will drain the life out of him.

I N F O

Marcus wasn't born with any sort of magic ability, rather he was like any man who led an unremarkable life. He was once a college history professor, married to a beautiful wife, father to a beautiful daughter. His life changed when his little girl was diagnosed with Stage 3 Leukemia. Marcus watched as his daughter began to wither away, science failing her at every turn. Desperate, Marcus sought a more mystical method of healing her. He began to study magic and the occult, soon learning the ritual to summon a Babylonian god of magic by the name of Sirsir.

The deal was simple, Marcus became the human agent of Sirsir and gained powerful magic abilities to save his daughter in exchange for a soul of Sirsir's choosing at a time it deemed acceptable. With his power, his daughter grew healthy and strong. Then Sirsir named the soul, Marcus's wife. When Marcus refused Sirsir transformed his daughter into an eldritch monster that tore his wife apart. Sirsir promised Marcus that his daughter would be returned to him unharmed and normal if Marcus served loyally and sacrificed a human being every New Moon....

Potion Mixing

Prauge is a highly talented herbalist and general creatore of concoctions. Over her hundreds of years of life, she has developed potions natural and unnatural; From those that can cure disease and cause it, to enhancing or crippling one's abilities, to healing or even changing the appearance of someone all-together, turning them into a different being. With enough prep and studytime, she can concoct elixirs for many situations, making her a valuable asset.

Serrated Weapons

Prauge's more awful poisons and other harmful concoctions can be used to taint the daggers she keeps on her person, allowing for a variety of effects. Whether to enhance their abilities upon colliding with metal, or using them to seep poison deep into the bodies of her victims, Prague doesn't need to constantly barrage her enemies to kill them. She also has a small assortment of ranged options, such as darts and, of course, sometimes just chucking her potions onto her foes to cease their existence.

Stealth

Prague is a quiet soul; An individual you wouldn't notice was around unless you were focused on her. She tends to slip through the shadows only making herself known when she considers it beneficial.

W E A K N E S S

While she will never die by natural means, it is fully possible for Prauge to be torn apart and killed by conventional methods. Her rotted flesh underneath her clothing would be easy to hack off compared to the average human. The only protection she has are her thick clothes...

I N F O

For hundreds of years, Prauge has traveled across the world practicing her concocting abilities. A woman who was once as mortal as any other managed to find the key to everlasting life; Though not as many had hoped it'd be. Her flesh underneath her attire is rotten, disgusting and putrid... But she still walks, and manages to study. She was never a moral woman; Testing potions on those who were sick, simply to see the results. If it cured them, great. If it didn't, it was just a chocked up failure she'd forget about.

On occasion, the woman would purposefully test poisons on the ill. She'd attempt to lure them out of the public eye, allowing her to abduct the bodies for autopsies and leave what was worthless to her to rot. In this new world, where she has found herself inclosed from the many places she'd visited throughout her life, it was only natural for the doctor to hinder those who took it all away. Not to mention, she wanted to see just how the aliens functioned inside...

  I have changed out MULTIPLE components and I still can't figure out what's making all that noise! Almost like the whole thing is vibrating, humming, and whistling all at once. Good grief. Not to mention how the joints whirr and scrape, it's annoying. I guess folks didn't care if it made all that noise in the middle of a firefight but this is excessive.

  I thought all these Cyborgs were capable of amphibious operations but the Guardian series apparently can't swim, no matter how many swimming programs we include.

• Technician 2889J Note// Antiquated:
  It's an old Cyborg, another country's trash, AND something people literally dubbed the "Kill-Bot"? We're doing our best to make this thing work but it's old. Basically stapling and gluing on new tech onto a rusted blender. I keep getting error codes and breaking it the more I go along. On top of that the uh, "Biological components" are nothing more than a few bones and the Cyborg's memories. Oh man. May as well call it a robot with skeletal decoration! The rest of you should pull the black box recording of the Cambridge Bay Massacre. See what this thing did! And they said it was melted down after that! Why are we doing this again? What can we even learn from this thing? 08/2030

[MegaOscarPwn]

Speedyboi

Óscar Guijarro, also known as Roundabout.

Species: Human

Age: 38 years old

Height and Weight: 76 kilograms. 1,76 meters of height.

Gender: Male

Description: Óscar is simple at first sight, his body being that of an average male of his age, but it seems that he takes care of his health and body, shown by is slightly muscular body: Nothing too crazy, but he's fit. He tends to wear dark, baggy clothing, tending to choose black amongst all other colors. He also seems to be a fan of numerous video games and comics, which is shown, once again, by his shirts. He also dons a full beard, completed with a black pompadour that he takes care of, sometimes putting it softly under the hood of his...well, hoody. His eyes are brown, which aren't really special or anything, but he sometimes seems to have some sort of twitch on the left one, the causes are unknown, more than likely accumulated stress of some sort. He has baggy eyes, possibly related to his unscheduled sleeping time and/or insomnia.

Enhanced Speed

Since an early age, Óscar had always been quite an energetic kid, learning how to walk and run way faster than the rest of the kids - his parents, of course, were concerned with that...and with good reason! Since the doctors could now find any kind of trace as to why the young lad was so goddamn fast and energetic, that was until the whole "superpowers" thing became aware to the public. Óscar's parents, Juan Carlos and María Victoria both lived in Spain at the time he was born, which was in the year 2000. As the man grew older and older, it became apparent that the super-speed that he could gather was something clearly not normal, although the reason as to why he was the only one in his family to have such a power is still a mystery. At the age of 8, María Victoria suffered a stroke that left her catatonic and, ultimately, died a few weeks after the incident had happened: all of this out of the blue, no one expected it.

Óscar's father, Juan Carlos, turned into a depressive alcoholic that did not do much aside from drinking and smoking, which caused him to contract a larynx cancer that had to be treated with a tracheotomy and finally the removal of the vocal chords. With all of this and that, the father never struck Óscar or seemed to be angry at him: more than likely due to the boy being his only reason to be alive and not let himself go, he needed to protect his love's son, and his own...duh. Anywho, fast forward to 2016, where Óscar then stood as an official orphan under the wing of his grandmother and uncle who took good care of him, although they clearly did not care for the boy's psyche seeing as how they rarely talked to him. Fast forward yet 5 more years into the future, at a time in here the Spanish boy finished his own studies at the Universidad Complutense in Madrid, graduating with average ratings in Technology of the Information, yet having no job. That's where all started, at first they just were quick robbing and maybe breaking into one or two banks in the blink of an eye, but as his money grew and equipment did too, he got bolder.

Eventually, the man calling himself Roundabout as both a reference to the song by "Yes" and his actual superpower, was caught and sent to prison few years prior to the alien invasion. Now he still stays there, nearing his 40's but with the same energy and personality as when he was a young lad, time treating him right as there would be very few aging details...one could say he's still in his later 20's!

Weaknesses

-He is still very clearly human and vulnerable to all things humans are vulnerable to.
-Emotions, he is really the emotive guy. If he sees something that gets him sad, you can clearly see it, and he sometimes acts due to emotions, not planning ahead.
-Óscar may be able to dart away in the blink of an eye, although he does not have unlimited stamina and will get tired if he overuses his power for hours and hours, being in need of quite a long rest before doing anything else.
-This may sound weird, but it has been seen that salty and non-sugar based foods seem to either drain his power or tire him even more. More testing is needed.

Relationships

I'll add once I have some.

NAME

Frederick "Freddy" R. Samson

SPECIES

Shoggoth

AGE

Ancient

HEIGHT/WEIGHT

Fifteen feet in diameter, 1 1/2 Ton (Raw Shoggoth)|(Frederick State) Six Foot Seven Inches, 1 1/2 Ton

GENDER

Whatever (Raw Shoggoth)|(Frederick State) Male

POWER

Fully Amorphous Nature

As a Shoggoth, Frederick's form is entirely malleable and is capable of reproducing, "all organs and processes". The result is a rather dangerous creature. This fully amorphous nature also finds it being incredibly difficult to slay without precise knowledge of the creature itself. It most often uses its ability to enter the form of Freddy R. Samson, the identity he's assumed for the past several hundred years. Its first few ventures into the murdering of sentient life involved its arms becoming large, toothed feelers.

WEAKNESSES

Suggestibility

While this Shoggoth has a will of its own and has proven a shrewd adversary to those that he has made combat with in the past, he is easily suggestible. His normal drive to kill and survive could easily be redirected towards a more stellar threat against the planet Earth, given the right person is behind the words.

Radiation

Its biological capabilities are most effective on the macro-scale, and it is generally a hardy monstrosity. When faced with immense amounts of radiation without time to prepare, however, it becomes easy to burn away. As a result, it often avoids radiation-high regions and is obscenely careful around open flame.

Raw Magic

As a creation of ancient science and magic, a gross combination of the two fields, parts of its essence are maintained through means easily undone through Eldritch Magic or other such fields of study. His will is particularly weak against manipulative magics, and his form is easy to undo through targeted magics and the right castings.

I N F O

This particular Shoggoth has grown accustomed to being an American fisherman. First as an ambiguous stranger to the Cherokee, then one of the first to arrive with the European settlers. It was always an easy matter for it. It developed, after some hundred thousand years of watching primitive humanity stream into his part of the content, a bit of an appreciation for the species. Their ability to manipulate their environment was endearing to the Shoggoth, who had as much control over its direct environment as it had over itself. That's how it lived for quite some time. It has no particular qualms with killing, and did so freely as he needed to with relative ease. Its only real reason for being anything comparable to a villain is the number it's murdered. Hundreds of thousands have fallen to its occasional hunger and rage. Moved now to Ireland following an incident with the invaders (who it's made a thorough point of hiding its nature from), it lives among the slums. It has taken more freely to killing than it would under normal circumstances, if only to ensure its survival. There are two things that this Shoggoth refuses: fate as a slave, or fate contained.

Tiara Mae (Freezeframe)

Human

27 (Any)

6' 163lbs (Obvious)

Female

Tiara manipulates Ice in all forms.

Peopsickle: Tiara Mae can freeze people in a block of ice, if hit with enough force they can shatter.

Slip and Slide: Tiara Mae uses ice to form a pathway that can be ridden upon, think Iceman, the ice can also be used to make a small defensive wall.

Lights out: Tiara Mae releases a slow stream of her power, able to create a fog covering an area roughly the size of the average city block.

Ice Shard: Tiara Mae concentrates her ability into a dagger like projectile that can be launched from her hand and can pierce enemies.

Most forms of heat/fire makes it hard or impossible for her to use her ability.

Tiara Mae was originally a computer hacker, to her knowledge was power. Eventually, her hacking caught the eye of a Mob Boss who hired her to help raid a genetics factory. While they were on the job a security gaurd did his rounds early and found them. In the ensuing fire fight, Tiara Mae was shot and fell into unknown genetic material that bonded to her D.N.A. giving the young woman Ice Abilities. When the crew was captured she was taken to a hospital for treatment and her new found powers manifested, she killed the police officers that were keeping an eye on her and made her escape.

She began to amiss a crew of her own, and began breaking into places that held information she wanted to use and blackmail with. She knew that whomever held all the info was the one with all the power. After gaining control of most of her hometown of Philadelphia, P.A. from the criminal underbelly, she began to Farner notice of the local Superhero, Heatflash. After many battles, each side with their own wins and losses the aliens finally attacked. She has since served her time with a small gang in Scotland's Penal Colony. Tiara Mae controls her own little section of the prison, and barters in information. If you want to know something, seek out Freezeframe, chances are she knows what you want.

--------------------

Tiara Mae relies on her smarts and hand to hand combat mostly, and uses no other weapons besides her powers.

The Ringleader, Zas the Demon

N A M E Ringleader Zas

s p e c i e s Demon Lord

a g e Several Thousand Years Old

h e i g h t/ w e i g h t 5’10 / 142 lbs

g e n d e r Female

P O W E R

• Demonic Magic: Being a demon lord, Zas has the ability to use her demonic magic to warp reality, though to a minor degree which is often used in cartoonish effect, or to curse people or objects. Just about anything a demonic magic can do.
• Demonic Heritage: Being born a demon, Zas is naturally stronger than humans by a rather large margin, the last time she lifted something, it was a Volkswagen Beetle which tend to be 1.5 tons or 3,000 lbs. Furthermore she gains an increased resistance to physical weapons and does not age.

w e a k n e s s

• Holy Weapons: Holy water, crosses, and any weapons blessed by God, will severely harm her or hamper her demonic abilities. Odds are it may ruin her physical form and send back to Hell for a while.
• Hubris: Her own arrogance and desire to stir up chaos leads to her downfall as she will tackle any situation no matter what, even if it is horrifically out of her league.
• Unable to hide: While she is able to warp reality to some degree, it is unknown whether Zas is incapable of warping her appearance or if she simply refuses to. Either way, she sticks out in a crowd.

I N F O

Zas was actually fairly well known internationally, as she was probably one of the most active, and destructive, villains to surface. The hero that typically fought her was known as the “Witch Hunter,” and she loved how their bouts would simply lead to more chaos and destruction. However, as of late, her infamy has seem to become second rate as the aliens took over the planet, she was no longer the star, and it angered her. Now, it is time for a comeback.

• Genius Level IQ: Even before the Seven Day War and the Occupation, Johnathan Reid was considered one of the finest minds in the world. He dedicated his time to study and after experimenting on himself he was able to boost his IQ even more.
• Decodification: With his cybernetic brain, John became capable of analyzing, writing, and decoding massive and complex lines of code.
• Artificially Enhanced Physiology: After the Seven Year War, Johnathan Reid began studying the Outsiders' technology. Using his findings, he constructed a cybernetic frame and a cybernetic implant that acts as a third hemisphere in his mind and allows him to operate the cybernetic frame, observe alien code, and participate in general discussions all at the same time.

w e a k n e s s John's cybernetics are sensitive to electromagnetic energy. A pulse of significant power could fry the implant in his brain and render his frame useless. John is also a normal human being who can be killed like any normal human being

I N F O

Johnathan Reid was a privately funded scientist who believed that in order to achieve real scientific breakthroughs, one must ignore the laws of ethics. No one wants to admit it but many modern medical breakthroughs can be attributed to the inhumane treatment of prisoners in Nazi concentration camps. So John would be viewed as a monster, a psychopath, a butcher of men. If it meant bringing mankind a better understanding of the universe than so be it, he would be a monster but a necessary monster.

When the Outsiders came, Reid halted all research and watched the invasion. He studied these creatures, their technology. When he was brought to Glasgow, John made his home in Clydebank in an abandoned factory and made his lab. There he has been making great strides, deconstructing alien technology and studying alien biology closer....

Victor "Tesla" Asimov

s p e c i e s
Human

a g e
26

h e i g h t/ w e i g h t
6' 175 Lbs.

g e n d e r
Male

P O W E R

Electricity Manipulation
- Victor can control and manipulate Electricity. Normally he will use this as a tool more than a weapon. Cutting scrap and welding small pieces here and there always helps. He will use this offensively but rarely, as he losses accuracy the farther he is away from his target. This also helps with his Mechanical Intuition as he can see electricity.

Mechanical Intuition
- This ability allows him to modify, upgrade, and repair most technology. Working almost like instincts, he can do this with technology he is and is not familiar with.

Energy Absorption
- Finally, Victor has the ability to absorb and redirect electrical energy. This includes plasma and laser weaponry, advanced energy shields, and energy containment barriers. Allowing him to redirect the energy into his electrokenisis and is able to transfer energy from one item or person to another.

w e a k n e s s
Grounded
- Victor cant do a lot of damage against things that are electrically insulated (I.E. covered in rubber) or grounded. The man also cannot control his electricity in water and it will discharge all around him.

Battery
- With all this electrical power around it's a shame he can't store any himself. Although being able to pull energy from batteries, generators, and power lines, he can't store a single amp within himself other than what his body needs to function.

Electrical Sight
- When he uses his Electrokenisis he can choose to see things around him that have an electrical current aside from just “feeling” around for it. although useful being able to see electrical lines, battery's, power sources, and at times nervous systems. He can't see anything else around him unless it has an electrical current of some kind. His eyes also glow a dull blue when he does this.

Technological understanding
- Most other people when seeing him work with technology would think he is a genius or at least very smart. But the fact is, he doesn't always understand how the things he makes work. He can't always explain the complex workings of the outlander's technology. Basically, he knows what it does but doesn't always know how it does it.

I N F O

Victor grew up in L.A. his family wasn't all that well off, living paycheck to paycheck. His father was an auto mechanic and his mother worked at a hotel. He has several brothers and sisters totaling 3 sisters, all younger, and 4 brothers all older. Now Victor wasn't all that special at least at first. After he hit puberty, his abilities began to manifest and with that came trouble.

This trouble came in the form of the occasional blown fuse or nearby transformer, power surges and the like. After a spike in the family's power usage and the ever-increasing power outages in the neighborhood people began to investigate. It wasn't long before Victor was found out and quickly abandoned by his god fearing parents who believed him to be evil or possessed by the devil simply for having powers.

In a fit of rage during a lightning storm, Victor brought the city nearly to its knees in one night. His rage brought destruction and terror scaring the city for years to come. After this little fit that was stopped by a hero named “Stone hammer,” a rather powerful earth magic user. Victor now coined as “Tesla” vanished into the night, hunted by the government and vigilante hero's. He stayed out of the lime light occasionally making a terror drone here and there to cause chaos and havoc wherever he released them.

This continued for a little while until they came, the outlanders, as he called them. They posed both a threat and a target of his greed. He did what he could to help the hero's fight but only when he knew he could get some of this new glorious tech from them. This all stopped once everyone surrendered. Again he went into hiding, trying to stay out of sight and out of mind. However, his greed got the better of him as he was captured with another smaller team in one of their storage facilities.

Energy Manipulation

Jax Arx's signature ability is that of energy manipulation, a gift gained from a modification of minor genetic editing and technological implants from his father (a supervillain in his own right, now deceased). His primary forms of displaying his power are through energy absorption/creation (Defensive) and Energy Attacks (Offensive).

Burnout/Overloading

Jax is only capable of channeling so much energy through his body/system. If he attempts to absorb too much energy, or expends too much of the energy stored up, he loses most of his functionality and is as helpful as your average joe.

Jax always had a penchant for getting in trouble. He grew up in the midwest of the U.S. to a supervillain father and a hero brother (his brother sharing the same powers). Ever since he was a kid, his father would perform routine "tests" on him, using the child as a chance to experiment. Jax was lucky to make it out alive when he escaped at the age of 15, let alone with powers. Jax was educated well-enough, and managed to squat for the next few years as he finished high-school and stole everything he needed to survive. Jax often jacked expensive cars in his late adolescence, and enjoyed the freedom of a life of crime.

Jax's life got more complicated after he graduated high school. He attempted to go to college, but was blacklisted as his father's crimes had become a matter of public record. Jax was unable to pursue his dream of being a proper engineer, and so continued his pattern of theft. Until one fateful day when he attempted to steal from the wrong mansion. The owner turned out to be a small-time, local hero (unbeknownst to anyone, let alone Jax). The hero attempted to beat Jax to a bloody pulp, but something snapped half-way through the beating. Jax's anger flared, and blasts of red energy pulsed from his clenched fists. Jax brutally murdered the hero who had attempted to kill him, and Jax's hatred began to seethe through every fiber of his being.

Jax tried to keep a low profile, stealing and killing only to survive. He was wisecracking most of the time, but to say that he was a good person is an utter falsehood. Jax murdered both his father and his brother for his own reasons, easily summed up by a deep hatred for what they had done to Jax in his youth.

When the invasion began, Jax refused to fight to save anyone. He kept his head down and primarily went with the flow, but refused to fully buy into the system. Jax wasn't going to let the alien bastards fuck with his DNA, and he wasn't going to buy into some alien agenda shit. So Jax's anger landed him right in a penal colony in Scotland, the last place Jax wanted to end up.
