[OOC] Skyline Academy (Academy of Heroes)

[King Tai]

I'll have a post up soon. Hopefully this evening.

[Cerces22]

If your still accepting, I would like to introduce you guys to...

Name: Morrigan Dorval
Age: 17
Appearance:
Backstory: Morrigan was your average 11 year old when her and a couple of friends went hiking in the nearby woods with a couple of friends. Her and the friends wandered from the trail, exploring the beauty of nature when they happened upon a poachers trap with a wolf pup stuck in it. They had just managed to rescue the animal when it's mother showed up, teeth bared and fur standing on end. Morrigan and her friends ran trying to get away while the wolf pursued them. Suddenly, Morrigan tripped and fell, as she turned around the wolf mother pounced at her. Morrigan threw up her hands in self defense and an icicle erupted from her hand skewering the beast. Her and her friends high tailed it out of the woods before any more wolves came to attack.

Later that night, at dinner, a loud banging rumbled through the house. Her father answered the door and out on the lawn were about 10 men. One of Morrigans friends told her father what had happened and fearful of what the young girl was capable of decided that she needed to go. That night her parents researched where they could go to keep Morrigan safe. They stumbled across a message board pointing them to the academy.

Abilities/Weaknesses: Morrigan is a cryomancer, she can control and manipulate all things ice. Her record lowest temperature is currently at -180°F, but she can only achieve this after intense focusing. Her average is around -75°F, and can lower the temperature in a 50ft radius usually any source of water around her, even the moisture in the air.

Morrigan is susceptible to fire, she can't stand being near anywhere to warm and tends to constantly keep the air around her at a cool 67°F at all times (about a one foot radius).

Personality: Over the years Morrigan has become more and more distant, earning a cliche nickname ice queen. But if you can get past her defenses she is an intelligent, strong independent woman. She can be fiercely loyal to those she is friends with, despite not letting many people get to close. She does tend to get into trouble with staff for her attitude and the way she talks to fellow students.

@Cerces22

Yes we are still accepting. I like her and I think she's good but I'm gonna wait on Raptra's take on your character. :)

[Raptra]

@Cerces22 Hmm, might prove to be quite a troublemaker, I like it. Everyone can't always get along. Accepted :)

[sempis]

Hey y'all, sorry for disappearing there. Wifi troubles took a while to resolve :/ I'm back, and I'll finish up my char when the weekend rolls around. Sorry about that, again.

[PokimKyOshi]

Hey, guys!
I kinda made a little change on how I post IC. I've started putting colors on my dialogues so it'd be easier to spot out. Hope that's cool :D

[Cerces22]

@Raptra

That's why I made her like that, every school needs one, I will make an intro post when in about a hour when I get home

[ItMeGritty]

Yo

[Raptra]

@Cerces22 Awesome, move her over to the Characters tab yeah? Thanks!

@ItMeGritty Hi welcome!

[Rabidporcupine]

Thinking of trying to join this. What would the opinion be on a guy who after a terrible accident is essentially all robot, like, maybe parts of his original brain and that's it. The rest is cool metal man.

[Raptra]

@Rabidporcupine So almost like DC's Victor Stone/Cyborg? That'd be interesting. We could see the backstory you'll give this one :)

[Rabidporcupine]

@Raptra
Kinda, but a lot more laid back and easygoing, so more like in the teen titans cartoon, or maybe Peter Quill in terms of personality.

[Raptra]

@Rabidporcupine Yeah that's not a problem, was mostly referring to the skill set when I mentioned the character. Sure, I'd be up to see what you've got.

[Rabidporcupine]

@Raptra
Oh, well yeah. He's real superpower is customization though, with all the adaptability of a swiss army knife and none of the responsibility required to use one. It'll be fun.

I'll have him up as soon as I redo everything, because my computer is a hunk of crap and crapped itself to death, deleting the character sheet halfway through the backstory.

[Rabidporcupine]

Boom, here's my metal man! I'll be honest, I feel like he might be a bit overpowered, but I'm learning that it's actually kind of hard to make a battlebot that isn't when you compare it to humans. Hopefully it's not too bad though, and let me know if you want me to change anything.

Adrien Lindall

Name:
Adrien Lindall M6, probably.

Age: (14-19)
Seventeen, probably.

Appearance:


Like this, but with clothes. Probably just a hoodie and jeans or something, idunno.

Backstory:
Adrien doesn't actually know a lot about his past, with no memories from before 'the accident' that took his body. All he knows is that a little over three years ago, he woke up in an underground laboratory, inhabiting a very basic robotic frame. The lab wasn't in the best condition, something even he could tell through his primitive visors, and it honestly looked like it had been abandoned for years, if not decades.

That was when he met Alexander Lindall, his alleged older brother. The man was a brilliant scientist, knowing more about robotics than anyone else he'd ever met. However, it seemed like something may have been wrong with him, as he confessed to the cyborg that what he had done was more likely than not illegal, hence why he had taken over an old laboratory once owned by some forgotten supervillain to work in secret. This work almost entirely revolved around rebuilding Adrien, the man pouring all his effort and knowledge into creating robotic body parts to try and keep him alive. Sadly, he met failure at every turn, and all he managed to achieve was connecting parts of his brain to an artificial core, eventually building a fully robotic body to insert it into.

For a while, Adrien was incredibly suspicious of Alexander, but as time passed the scientist truly did prove to be a good brother to the cyborg, whether or not the story was true. He helped Adrien get used to his new body, teaching him how to walk and interact with the world again, uploaded information into his brain about all kinds of different subjects, including robotics, and gradually tinkered with and improved his design, with eventually led to the pair designing and building new bodies. However, he wasn't allowed to leave the lab, as Alex wasn't sure he'd be accepted yet, especially given the treatment shown to many mutants.

However, after three years of keeping Adrien hidden from the world, Alex recently learnt about Skyline Academy. It was a risky move, as it would involving sending Adrien half way across the world, but it was also the best hope to let the boy live something close to a normal life. And so, through methods that Adrien still isn't quite sure of, Alex managed to get him and all his additional parts through airport security as luggage, and got him to the academy. After a farewell that, thanks to a lack of tear ducts, was only tearful from one side, Alex left his brother in the hands of the academy staff and returned home, leaving Adrien to try and settle in as best as a socially untested android could.

Abilities/Weaknesses:
Adrien honestly has quite a few abilities. He is naturally durable due to being made of metal, and quite a bit stronger and faster than an average human too. He also never feels fatigue or pain, and doesn't need to eat, drink, or sleep, although he may do something similar to these in order to keep his body powered. In the end though, these all pale compared to the fact that, should there be a task he is currently incapable of, he can always create additional parts that allow him to do it. This can be seen in the fact that he has recently built jets into his legs, arms and back, working both as a sort of 'jump-jet' or just to hit that little bit harder in combat.

Despite this, there are a few glaring weaknesses that he has so far not been able to create countermeasures for, the most blatant of which are EMPs. While his core does have enough shielding that he won't just straight up die from one, he hasn't been able to find a way that he can shield the rest of his body and still be able to move easily, so most EMPs will cause him to collapse on the spot. In addition to this, as mentioned above, he still needs to find a way to keep his body powered properly. He does have multiple ways of taking in energy, such as taking in biofuel, or a pair of small solar panels he can attach to his back, but the most effective way involves a bulky machine he has to connect himself to. He usually does this once every three or so days, and not having access to it will result in a rapid decrease in abilities, until he eventually goes into a kind of 'hibernation mode' to keep his core from running out of energy, at which point the internal life support system keeping the pieces of his original brain would fail, killing him. He also doesn't really like water, because it makes him rust after a while, but whether that really counts as a weakness is up to you.

Personality:
Adrien, as one might expect from a person who has next to no need to eat, is very laid back in day to day life. He is a great believer in the idea that whatever happens happens, and he should try to take each day as a chance to enjoy himself rather than stress over things. He has also become something of an optimist for these very reasons, tending to look on the best parts of a bad situation simply because the bad parts will rarely actually affect him. However, this could easily lead many people to see him as irresponsible, and they'd be right. It also means that he has a fairly hard time putting himself in other peoples shoes, because his priorities are always so different to theirs.

That being said, he isn't completely devoid of empathy, and will try to be friendly to people, especially if he feels like he might have done something wrong.

[Raptra]

@Rabidporcupine The weaknesses kind of balance it out, so he's in. Dr. Roy is gonna love him lol.

[Rabidporcupine]

Neato.
