[OOC] No More Heroes

[LordOfTheNight]

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

This RP caught my eye. Figured I'd write up a little something for it.

Doctor Vellian Prauge

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.

  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. They can't even walk along the bottom! There's a package that was under development to make them you know, not emergency shut down whenever they exceed a twelve foot depth. I'll figure something out.

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?

[Terminal]

I am under the impression I have to rethink my character concept. They were going to be an engineer/mad inventory Supervillain, whose ability would have let them synthesize exotic chemical compounds and fabricate powered armor. In the interest of not obviating the other characters, I am going to take a moment and retool.

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.

@MegaOscarPwn

Looks fine to me. Now quick question before I give you the go-ahead, is your character still in Madrid or has he been moved to the penal colony in Scotland with the rest of the super-powered Baddies

[MegaOscarPwn]

@LordOfTheNight Oh, I did say he got imprisoned, I should've specified he got moved to the penal colony since he had superpowers and all!

[LordOfTheNight]

Sorry, I think I'm gonna go ahead and back out of this.

Got a very other things on my plate, and it's wasn't very responsible of me to join more than I can handle without getting burnt out.

I still like the idea, though. Best of luck to this one.

Completely understandable. If you ever decide to join up again, let me know.

@LordOfTheNight Oh, I did say he got imprisoned, I should've specified he got moved to the penal colony since he had superpowers and all!

@MegaOscarPwn

@MegaOscarPwn

That's right

Allow me to immediately start some mess.

I'm majorly into this idea, but I have a couple ideas and I'm not sure which would slot best into the little group that's forming. I hope you guys can help me decide:

-Alien symbiote type, ala Venom or Carnage. It comes from a species who each get to 'dominate' a planet, by subjugating as many creatures as possible with its biomass. In this culture, each symbiote is given one planet for itself and itself alone, so the creature would view the other invaders as pretenders to its new throne/homeland, and feel compelled to destroy them.

-Super Scientist type, ala Doctor Octopus or more specifically, Doc Ock's time as the Superior Spiderman. Would probably tout himself as the "Supreme Scientist" of the world, and all known worlds, and think himself perfectly suited to the task of defeat The Outsiders, which those simpleton heroes would of course be incapable of. Would probably be a gadgeteer, but have one main gimmick(like how Ock has his arms as his 'main thing'.)

-Cowboy type guy, largely based on McCree and Reaper from Overwatch, as well as Bullseye from Marvel Comics and Vigilante from DC Comics. Pistolero mercenary who was mostly in it for kicks and the cash. A little bit of a narcissist, and doesn't really think he can die. He was just doing it for the money and isn't really interested in anyone but himself, his wife, and his son. He thought he was living the good life -- plenty of money, plenty of time with his family, and he'd always gets sprung from the joint by his next employer. That is, until the Outsiders attacked.

-Someone from a future where The Outsiders won and humanity well and truly lost. To this character, that event is well in the past, and they are far descended from one of the era's Great Heroes. They figured they could travel back in time, quickly take over to better shore up the planet's defenses. They were quickly defeated by the planets heroes and sent to prison. They are now desperately trying to gather a team to put an end to the Outsiders.

I have a few more ideas rolling around in case none of these would really work, but these are the main ones I'm considering. Which would you all like to see most?
