I'll continue taking point choices until this coming Saturday, but for now, everyone is free to move about within Smash City Alcamoth and interact with characters of their own accord. If you are wanting to take additional characters for yourself from those presented, now is a good time for all sorts of meetings. It's also a good time for collabs, making IC plans on who is going where, and just character interaction in general. If you have any questions about settings or facilities in Smash City Alcamoth, feel free to ask or present your own ideas that I can approve for you. Have fun!

Name: Mag Launcher
Game Origin: Evolution: The World of Sacred Device
Appearance:
Mad Launcher is a short teenager (he stopped growing at 10 years old) with blue eyes and long spiked brown hair. He’s well toned with lean muscle but looks soft, and his strength is easily underestimated when his small frame is combined with his baggy clothing. He wears a tan set of cargo pants and a matching jacket to maximize pocket space and carry capacity for his tools and any potential artifacts he’ll find on the job, as well as thick boots and steel plated gloves. Goggles are placed over his forehead and worn on the eyes when necessary. Of course the most striking feature of his is the airacomet, his cyframe, a bionic third arm attached to his right shoulder.
Personality: Mag Launcher is usually a cheerful, kind, and innocent young man despite his adventurous spirit and occasional hot headed brashness. He enjoys making spontaneous jokes even in dire or otherwise inappropriate situations, enjoys cute things like giant teddy bears, and is an overall very friendly person, perhaps to a fault as it leads to him always speaking his mind. Despite owning a manor with a butler, he has little knowledge of etiquette, failing to recognize the proper way to address royalty or that he should even bow to show respect. He’s extremely knowledgeable about food, a fantastic cook and able to identify most foods and ingredients by smell alone, though he absolutely detests bell peppers. He’s extremely protective of his friends, especially Linear, and won’t think twice about charging in to fight an entire army single handed for them. He’s brimming with confidence in his abilities, and isn’t the least bit self conscious about his small height, though he’s completely and hopelessly oblivious to love and romance. All in all he’s a good kid with a good heart ready to take on any challenge thrown his way.
Background: Mag Launcher was born the only child to the prestigious Launcher family of adventurers, mentored in the family business from a young age by his father, Asroc. From their manor in the small town of Pannam they spearheaded many adventures into various ruins all around the country in search of ancient artifacts from bygone civilizations, including cyframes (bionic attachments from a long dead super advanced people). They and their rivals, the Gun family, both hit hard economic times and became deeply in debt to The Society, the organization that licenses and offers services to Adventurers. The Guns eventually sold their estate to pay off the debt and began living in a refurbished bus, while the Launchers worked to slowly wiggle away at the enormous sum of money.
One day when Mag was 13 his parents left on an expedition and failed to ever return. Gone off the face of the earth. One month later a mysterious selectively mute girl name Linear Cannon showed up on the Launcher doorstep with a note from Asroc that simply read, “Protect this girl with your life.” She couldn’t, or wouldn’t, tell what happened to Mag’s parents and that note was the last he ever heard from them. From then on Linear became his adopted little sister, and the family butler Gre Nade became the caretaker to two children. But of course there was still food to put on the table, bills to be paid, and an enormous debt to work off, so Mag took up the family business himself. He became a licensed adventurer and spent the next three years searching for his parents while pulling artifacts from deadly ruins filled with traps and monsters. At first he wasn’t very good at it, constantly getting bested by his rival, Chain Gun, but eventually he grew into the role.
At age 16 he was really finding his stride, conquering ruin after ruin. During this time he met with Prince Eugene of the Eighth Empire, who was using the vast military power of his country to search for something called Evolutia, the ultimate cyframe. After Linear used her mysterious powers to resurrect a dead plant, Prince Eugene took a special interest in her, believing she was Evolutia, or at least connected to it. He later returned to Pannam with full military force and kidnapped Linear, knocking out Mag with a tank cannon. When Mag came too, he gathered together his friends and allies to prepare for battle. With his butler Gre Nade, friend and rival Chain Gun, and recent addition Pepper Box, they took his plane the Sea Otter to storm Prince Eugene’s flagship and rescue Linear! Only, before they could land, a wave of light swept across the horizon…

Specialty: Adventure Archeologist
Level: 1
Experience: 0/10
Powers:
- Airacomet - Hand Parts: Mav’s cyframe is called the airacomet, a big mechanical hand coming out of what looks like a Swiss Army knife, which is appropriate considering its potential variety. It can be installed with various parts to alternate the abilities of the hand, switching out modes (of which only one can be active at a time). Right now it only has the basic hand parts installed, which is used for combat punches strong enough to put holes in rock, lifting and throwing large heavy objects, and general purpose stuff you would normally do with your hands.
Strengths:
- Adventurous Archeology - Mag is used to putting his life on the line in ancient tombs filled with monsters and traps, both of the archaic and technological variety. He knows how to spot a trap and disarm it, how to avoid dangerous situations, can think quickly on his feet, and can pinpoint a valuable artifact and understand its worth.
- Tactician - Mag is used to leading a team in dangerous situations and calling the shots. He’s got a good head for tactics, which means he knows how to analyze an opponent and how to beat deploy his allies and make use of their skills.
- Fist Fighter - Due to the nature of his cyframe, Mag has had to learn how to fight with his fists (since the airacomet can work independently but is more effective when it mimics his right arm), which means that not only does he have a giant machine hand capable of punching through stone, he knows how to hit with his normal hands too.
Weaknesses:
- Only Human - Despite his knowledge and mastery over his cyframe, Mag is ultimately an ordinary 16 year old human boy and as such is just as susceptible to harm as any other in his situation. If he can’t guard with the airacomet, it’s gonna hurt.
- Eternal Debt - The Launcher family just can’t catch a break. Mag always seems to owe somebody for something whether it be cash, favors, or something else. He almost never gets to keep any of the spoils of his adventures, having maintenance and repairs for his seaplane, contractors to pay, licensing fees from The Society to operate as an Adventurer, and every time he pays off one major debt something always comes up after it. In the World of Light surely some of these debtors would be unsavory?
Spirits:
- N/A
Kindred Spirits:
- Linear Cannon - Mag’s adoptive sister and the mysterious girl that showed up with a note from Mag’s father after his disappearance.
- Gary The All-Knowing Vortigaunt
- Dart Feld
Inventory:
- Airacomet - Cyframe designed as a Swiss army third arm.
- 4 Escape Incense - Allows you to leave a dungeon early, then return at a later time to the same location. One time use.
- 5 Naolin Gold - A potent variant of the naolin healing herb that heals a moderate amount of health.
- 1 Minnaolin Gold - A potent healing herb that affects everyone in the party.
- Juuuuust enough spending money to cover basic cost of living.

Name: Primrose Azelhart
Game Origin: Octopath Traveler
Appearance: Full Character Art!
Personality: Primrose is a mature young woman, with a strong sense of justice and even stronger desire for vengeance. After enduring hardship after hardship during her teenage years while searching for her father's murderers, Primrose has gained an inner strength and powerful resolve to see things through to the end. However, theses trials have also given her a tough outer shell. Although her acting ability is top notch and she can easily play the part of a cheerful girl, most people that have met Primrose in passing know that she is mistrusting and distant. She is cold, cunning and aloof; a woman of few words unless she needs something from someone - and even then, she lets her body do the talking.
However, despite her impressions part of that happy girl growing up in Noblecourt still remains. At heart, Primrose is an extrovert, and when some lucky people worm their way into a friendship with her they'll be able to see through the walls she's put up around herself. If given the opportunity to relax, Primrose will open up and even get a little playful. Kind words from Primrose are reserved only for those closest to her. Even the most beautiful of roses has it's thorns though. Even the greatest of friends have a hard time prying any personal information out of Primrose, and none would be able to dissuade her from her quest for revenge.
Background: At the age of thirteen, Primrose's world crashed down around her. Under the cover of darkness, three men broke into her home and murdered her father in cold blood. Unbeknownst to any of the men in the room, the young Primrose saw the whole thing from underneath her father's desk. She watched on, silent, shaking and horrified as they killed her father and left as if it was just business.
Primrose's life as a noble in the prestigious House Azelhart ended that night. The young girl seethed with a need to see her father's murderers brought to justice - even if she had to be judge, jury, and executioner. She set out away from home in search of the killers, with only one piece of information to go on: each man had the mark of a crow tattooed on their skin. One on the left arm, one on the right, and the final man had his on the neck. For two years she traveled, and eventually arrived in the desert town of Sunshade, where a man with a crow mark was known to frequent the dancing establishments.
She was taken in by a wealthy man named Helgenish, whose business was in pleasure. He owned several taverns and the women that danced in them. In order to follow up the only lead she had, Primrose stayed in town and was transformed into a pleasure woman under the tutelage of Helgenish's top dancers and the man himself. It was demeaning work, but Primrose did not allow herself to feel shame in it. She did it for the sake of her revenge. Her pride drove a wedge between her and the other girls in Helgenish's employ. Only one other dancer, a young woman named Yusufa, attempted to befriend Primrose despite the once-noble woman's cold attitude. It was seven more years of enduring perverted hands of customers, rotten words from other girls, and abuse at the hands of her own employer before it all finally paid off.
There, in the back of the tavern, was a man with a crow mark on his arm. Immediately Primrose attempted to confront him, but Helgenish stopped her. In a cunning ploy, Yusufa offered to distract Helgenish so that Primrose could pursue the man with the crow mark. She chases him down through a catacomb, and once emerging on the other side she finds not her target, but Helgenish and his goons holding Yusufa captive atop a cliff. Helgenish had been in cahoots with the crows the whole time, and he was unwilling to let Primrose, his must lucrative dancer, go. He threw Yusufa from the cliff in order to make an example out of her and scare Primrose into cooperating, but it only fueled the fire in Primrose's heart. She killed Helgenish and his henchman, lifting a map the crow marked man had given him off her employer's corpse. Her chase continued, sending her to the far Northern end of Orsterra.
The next leg of her journey was long, but Primrose had waited ten long years to deliver justice to the men who killed her father. Along the way, fate decided to tie her and seven other people together. Adjacent to the Sunlands where she'd been living for the last half of a decade was the Riverlands, and in a sleepy little town called Clearbrook she met a young man named Alfyn. He was a budding apothecary, and he was on the hunt for a venomous snake, in order to make an anti-venom for a little girl. Although Primrose was distrustful of people in general, but especially men, she wasn't the type to ignore a child in danger. Once they'd obtained the venom and saved the girl, Alfyn asked if he could accompany Primrose on her journey as a way to repay her. Primrose, although a bit begrudgingly, accepted. Their two person traveling party snowballed from there. Therion, Olberic, H'aanit, Cyrus, Ophilia and Tressa joined them sooner or later. Together, the now eight person team could tackle anything. They moved through the country and helped each other achieve their goals, and Primrose's was no exception.
By the time the group made it to Stillsnow and Primrose confronted and killed the left crow, she'd grown a serious soft spot for every single one of her seven companions... but no matter how soft parts of her heart grew, there was still a dark, cold stone nestled at the center of it. She was still hellbent on avenging her father.
Her quest led her back to her hometown of Noblecourt. The city had deteriorated since her youth, but parts of it remained the same. Primrose was greeted by some familiar faces, although some reunions proved to be less heartwarming that others. Revello, a former city watchman and friend of her late father's, and Simeon, a charming man and aspiring who used to garden for her family, caught Primrose up on the what's happened in Noblecourt since her departure. The Obsidians - the true name of the crows - had taken over after killing her father and destroying her family. Together they tracked the right crow to the Obsidian's hideout, where another face from the past reared his head: the former captain of the guard, a man as close to her father as anyone, was the identity of the right crow. Seeing Albus, her father's friend, and knowing that he was complicit in his murder brought to life a whole new darkness in Primrose. The harsh bite of betrayal fed her rage, and soon afterward the second crow was dead by Primrose's hand.
Then, Simeon slipped into the room. Primrose suspected nothing, because they'd been good friends before her father's murder. He would show Primrose his poems all those years ago and watch her swoon. He'd helped her after she arrived back in town. Simeon was there beside her now, but there was a pain. Hot and pure, and blood, and a knife - the knife was in Simeon's hands, stained red, but that wasn't possible, Simeon wouldn't do that. The head crow was here, and the dark mark of the bird was on Simeon's neck, he'd stabbed her, but he wouldn't...
Primrose's consciousness slipped just as a brilliant light covered the whole of Orsterra and beyond. When she woke up again, Primrose was in city she'd never seen before and surrounded by all types of beings. She was trapped in the World of Light without her friends, nursing a fresh betrayal, and with her vengeance not yet sated.

Specialty: Support
- As a dancer, Primrose focuses on raising the stats of allies. Offensively, she utilizes dark magic at range.
Level: 1
Experience: 0/10
Powers:
- The Art of Dance
- The skill Primrose learned in Sunshade. Rhythmic swaying of her body can grant buffs to the stats of allies, such as their attack, magic power, speed, and defense.
Strengths:
- Bewitching Beauty
- Primrose can usually get what she wants out of people by utilizing her charm, grace, and stunning good looks. This is commonly called "using your feminine wiles." She can even get people to follow her and help in battle, but her beauty is less effective on the strong willed.
- Enduring Tenacity
- She will stop at nothing to find the men who killed her father and avenge him. In order to reach that goal, Primrose has become an amazing actor, able to put on a front and endure any hardship until her revenge is complete.
- Strength in Numbers
- Although she may not always show it, traveling in a group and making bonds gives Primrose more strength and confidence than she ever had while she was fighting her battles alone. She'll go the extra mile while in a group.
Weaknesses:
- Single-Minded
- Primrose is so focused on her vengeance that it can sometimes blind her. She is prone to falling for traps or missing critical information when she's chasing down the object of her loathing. The sight of a crow tattoo will make her drop everything else in pursuit.
- Suited for Support
- Although she is more than capable of wielding a dagger with deadly skill, Primrose is ill-suited to fighting on the front line. Her frame is thin but curvy for the most alluring dances, and her physical strength is lacking.
Spirits:
- n/a
Kindred Spirits:
- Olivia (Fire Emblem) - Another beautiful dancer and dagger user. However, that's where the similarities end. Where Olivia is timid and indecisive, Primrose is determined and self-assured.
- Alex Roivas (Eternal Darkness) - A young woman seeking the truth who becomes embroiled in a conflict beyond her imagining, much the same as Primrose herself. Alex also wields dark magic, although her source is the sinister Tome of Eternal Darkness.
- Chun-Li (Street Fighter) - Beautiful, gustsy women seeking revenge for their fathers' murders. What's more to say?
Inventory:
- The dagger of House Azelhart, emblazoned with the inscription "Faith shall be your shield."
- Yusufa's handkerchief, another memento of someone Primrose watched die.
- An ornate fan, a prop used in her performances.
- A Thunder Soulstone, a gem imbued with lightning magic that deals damage in a wide area.
- 600 leaves (currency of Orsterra)

Right, Sonny belongs HERE.
Name: Sonny
Game Origin: Sonny (2017)
Appearance: As below. Note that I’m giving him the white shirt he wore in the Flash games as well.
Personality: This version of Sonny is significantly more well-adjusted than the one from the two Flash games that preceded him, despite his, shall we say…abrupt upbringing. Surprisingly for an amnesiac, he clearly remembers enough about the world to function within it. This is likely the consequence of whatever information was leftover in his brain before he was injected with the modified zombie virus strain (which is probably where his Received Pronunciation accent comes from). In addition, he’s kind of a dork at times.
He has a very casual way and down-to-earth of speaking, even in the heat of battle. Hell, he’s known to crack jokes in the middle of danger. He considers his infection more of a blessing than a curse. As he puts it, “When I came back to life, I had a SIX PACK. Do you know what that means to me?” At the same time, he knows when to take things seriously and when not to.
He’s also far more intelligent than he lets on: He was able to understand most of the scientific terminology flung around by Dr. Herregods, which shows that he might have been one of the researchers on the White November in life, rather than one of the ship’s laborers as his brawny frame would suggest. The fact that Carbon, the Praetor of the ZPCI, said his face looked familiar indicates that he was possibly either a former ZPCI soldier, a zombie cure researcher, or perhaps even both at different points in his life. This would explain his ability to wield every weapon he picks up competently, at the very least.
Background: Sonny began life as a corpse. Whatever man that corpse originally belonged to, he was one of the workers onboard a research ship, the White November. Even in a world ravaged by a zombie pandemic, the human race did not go down as easily as in some other stories. The humans of this world had dedicated themselves to fighting the virus across the globe, both physically, through the corporate paramilitary organization ZPCI (Zombie Pest Control, Incorporated), and scientifically, by developing a cure. The researchers aboard the White November were the latter, working diligently on the cure...but tragedy struck.
It’s not clear what caused it, but the zombie test subjects broke free from containment somehow and ran amok throughout the ship’s decks, murdering and turning most of the crew. A lone survivor, a researcher by the name of Louis, had one last tool to turn the situation around: A syringe filled with a modified strain of the zombie virus. Desperate to survive, he found the corpse of someone he knew, someone who was clearly on the way to turning at that, and injected him with the syringe, despite not even knowing if it would work. But, in a fortunate turn of events, not only did the modified viral strain overwhelm the original strain percolating in the young man’s body, but it kept his intelligence intact at that.
Just one problem: The newly-reanimated intelligent zombie had severe memory loss. The zombie took the name “Sonny” as it was the first thing Louis called him. It wasn’t like he had a name anyway.
Louis didn’t have the time to get the kid up to speed, as he and Sonny (mostly Sonny) had to fight for their lives in an attempt to get off the ship. Things were going great at first: Whatever Louis had injected Sonny with, he was far more powerful than the basic zombies that roamed the White November, with full mobility and enhanced strength and durability over his peers, along with regenerative abilities. Louis merely had to hang back and tell Sonny the basics of combat while Sonny completely annihilated everything in his path.
Unfortunately, Murphy’s Law kicked in. It turned out that a trio of ZPCI agents had already been dropped onto the ship and were, as ZPCI agents were wont to do, murdering every zombie in their path. This would normally be a good thing, but when they found the pair, the squad leader, one Sergeant Meier, radioed HQ to find out what to do about the strange situation. To make matters worse, he phrased his question to HQ as “I’ve got a human survivor and a Zed [the ZPCI word for zombie] here. Survivor’s likely infected. Please advise.” Unsurprisingly, HQ ordered them to shoot, and shoot they did.
Louis was fatally shot in the chest, and then the ZPCI trio moved to get to work on the strange talking zombie. Sonny, now enraged, killed all three of them in self-defense despite being armed with only a broken pipe, but not before Meier informed HQ of the green, talking, super-powered zombie. With his last breath, Louis told Sonny about the lifeboats, and gave him, of all things, a vintage cassette tape, saying, “It saved my life once. Maybe it will save yours.”
Sonny escaped on a lifeboat, and when he made landfall, he saw a man in white and red power armor, the last survivor of his squad, trying to fight off a horde of zombies in a last stand. Sonny, naturally, moved to help, and the man in the suit wasn’t in a position to refuse him. After they fended off Sonny’s “cousins,” as the man put it, he caught Sonny up to speed as they headed back to his “Basecamp.”. It turned out that the armored man, Veradux, was a paralyzed Army veteran and former combat medic working for a corporation called InfectAid, an anti-zombie weapons manufacturer of sorts. He, and several other veterans, signed up to trial their new combat suit in order to protect the local refugee population in the area after the region became overrun by zombies. Unfortunately, their numbers quickly dropped. First to five, then three...then just Veradux.
Unfortunately, when Sonny and Veradux got back to Basecamp, it was a flaming ruin filled with burning bodies. It turned out that the ZPCI had attacked on direct orders from the Praetor, their commander-in-chief. Apparently they were “about to turn.” A lone man, Captain Vendara, had been waiting for Sonny at Basecamp the whole time, having heard about the “talking green Zed.” Taking this as proof that the Zeds were “evolving,” he attacked the two in an ambush, and nearly killed both Sonny and Veradux. However, at the last possible second, he got orders over the radio to disengage and take on another enormous threat that had appeared in the area. Due to inconvenient timing, Vendara spared their lives, stating that they would meet again.
After that, the pair spent a long time digging graves, giving the dead their due. They had only barely finished the deed when they were attacked by a grotesquely obese, eyeless zombie with obvious mutations, complete with stitches and scars on its body just like Sonny. Even stranger...it talked. It had nowhere near Sonny’s intelligence: All it could really say were simple things, like “Must eat!” But it still talked, and that was enough to indicate that the plot was thickening indeed. When the beast was dead, they both decided to follow the only lead they had: Veradux had heard the locals talk of a crazy scientist who lived in nearby Tera Jungle. It was a long shot, but maybe, just maybe, this scientist would know more about just what the hell Sonny was.
Sonny and Veradux continued on their adventure, traveling across multiple diverse regions and acquiring new allies as they continued to unravel the mystery behind the mysterious new “super zombies.” These super zombies slowly got stronger and smarter the more the group advanced, and the plot went deeper and deeper. It turned out that the Praetor of the ZPCI, a man named Carbon, was pretty much the polar opposite of who you’d want in charge of a major anti-zombie organization.
Carbon saw the zombie virus as a tool to bring humanity into a glorious new age, due to the tremendous benefits that the infected, when properly enhanced, could have on society. To this end, he secretly diverted research and funding from curing the zombie virus to creating new and enhanced strains of it from within the ZPCI itself. No-one in the rank-and-file would suspect that the leader of a zombie-hunting organization would be actively working against humanity, which, coupled with Carbon’s diehard supporters keeping everything hush-hush, allowed him to slowly advance his master plan of replacing humanity with intelligent zombies.
He worked to have all who supported curing the virus eliminated by any means necessary. For example, one of the most well-respected cure researchers in the ZPCI, Dr. Herregods (who had continued working on it even after his colleagues, Dr. Klima and Dr. Brandt (the latter of which created the viral strain inside Sonny), started drinking Carbon’s Kool-Aid), had his medical license revoked due to Carbon pulling some strings. He was then pushed out of the ZPCI, actively hunted down by Carbon’s goons, and forced to run his lab out of a shack in the obscenely-dangerous Tera Jungle for his own safety.
Louis and the other researchers on the White November had to go as well, and Carbon had the ZPCI attack the ship, unwittingly setting in motion the events that would lead to Sonny’s creation, and thus his own downfall.
Sonny and his allies--Veradux, Dr. Herregods himself, a rogue ZPCI agent named Karantha (Kara for short) who had violated orders to fire on civilians, and Zakk, a guide they had picked up along the way in exchange for destroying the cult that threatened his family--slowly made their way across the land as they closed in on Carbon’s headquarters, killing his zombified underlings and slowly dismantling his super-zombie production and research facilities.
However, Carbon had one more trick up his sleeve. In secret, he had devised the linchpin of his plan: the “SEED protocol.” It was, in truth, a satellite armed with a powerful energy weapon that would destroy all life in a given area from orbit...and all who died would be reanimated as sapient Super Zombies. Carbon actually managed to use the SEED once before he was killed at the hands of both Sonny’s crew and his ZPCI minions, who had grown wise to his sinister plans, even after Carbon unleashed the virus within his body and morphed into a gigantic, twisted abomination of flesh.
However, while Sonny’s actions had earned him a reprieve from being hunted down, Kara was made the new Praetor, and she had only worked with Sonny due to sharing a common enemy. With Carbon dead, she announced it would be business as usual as soon as she got an opportunity, which meant that the ZPCI would go back to hunting down all zombies, sapient or not. Meanwhile, Carbon’s use of the SEED had created a crater full of people just like Sonny, and they would probably need someone to guide them if they ended up losing their memory like Sonny did. So Sonny resolved to travel back to the crater where the SEED had struck and try to help out. Maybe form a community. But he hadn’t gotten very far outside the conflict zone when everything went white.
Specialty: Rapid Adaptability
Level: 1
Experience: 0/10
Powers:
→ Regenerate: Sonny has significant regenerative abilities. Not to insane degrees: He has to actively trigger his regeneration with a mental command. But he can even induce regeneration in uninfected allies this way. Super Zombie bullshit, who knows how it works? It also dispels a random debuff, which can be anything from being stunned, to being set on fire, to being crippled. In-game, this has a 4-turn cooldown, though a “turn” in Sonny only lasts a few seconds at most.
Strengths:
→ Physical Strain: Sonny’s default, starting strain of the modified zombie virus that Louis injected Sonny with. This is a strain that dramatically enhances the subject’s physical abilities, from strength to speed to defense, and has elements of all more advanced strains. The Physical Strain is Sonny’s old standby, and the attacks from the Physical Strain are in theory capable of taking down nearly any opponent Sonny faces. Even at his absolute weakest, this strain’s abilities allowed him to take out three trained ZPCI commandos armed with rifles, futuristic blades, and even power armor by himself, and punch out basic zombies in only one or two blows. Sonny has shown that he’s capable of taking a wide variety of injuries from all manner of weapons and attacks. While he can still be killed a second time after taking enough damage, it’s clear that the viral strain inside of him has enhanced his durability significantly. The Physical Strain’s combat ability chiefly revolves around exploiting the subject’s undead physiology: It encompasses everything from claw attacks, to punching so hard that the blunt force trauma makes armor nigh-useless, to ripping apart enemy defenses, to making the target bleed outright, to necrotic regeneration and even gaining health back by damaging the opponent. The Physical Strain can be summed up as “Stereotypical Elite Zombie, Magnified.”
→ Proficient With Everything He Picks Up: For a complete amnesiac, Sonny is surprisingly adept at utilizing weapons and armor. He’s capable of wielding pretty much any weapon he picks up at a proficient level, including guns, blades, hammers, axes, and energy weapons, as well as even handling various technological armor and equipment. This implies that he might have had some combat training in life that he remembers instinctually. Hell, he even gets his hands on bizarre, possibly-magical objects at many points along his journey, and seems to know how to use them instinctually, or at least reap the benefits of having them on his person in the “Accessory” slot.
→ Rapid Evolution: Sonny has the unique ability to “evolve” (read: adapt) new abilities for the situation on the fly. As Sonny attacks, defends, heals others, etc, he slowly fills up an “Evolution Gauge,” and when the gauge fills, his virus “presents” three new temporary abilities that augment his existing active abilities, but he can only choose one per evolution. These new evolutions fade after the battle is over. The Evolutions from the game, and more information on how they work, can be found here: sonny.fandom.com/wiki/Evolution_(Sonn…
Weaknesses:
→ A Goddamn Walking Corpse: Sonny is a zombie. Not only that, but he was reanimated by a virus. He doesn’t smell or anything, nor is he capable of spreading the virus to others, and he won’t rot beyond the initial stages prior to his reanimation, but there are lots of characters, especially in the video game world, who see the undead as an existential threat. Be they Azerothians who grew up in fear of the Lich King and his hordes of undead Scourge, or Raccoon City residents whose lives were ruined and whose families were killed by the Umbrella Corporation and their bioweapons, the countless people in his own world who are driven to fear “Zeds” like Sonny, holy crusaders who see undead as a violation of the natural order of life and death and thus attack them on sight, or even just people who have watched far too many cheesy horror movies and take them as fact, people will have countless reactions to Sonny, and many of them may not be good. Sure, he talks, and he doesn’t eat human flesh, but many people will just see a green-skinned man with glowing eyes and chest scars and run for the hills.
→ Amnesiac: At his core, Sonny’s defining conflict is the struggle to determine who he is. He has no memory of his past life. He walks, and talks, and fights, and knows various things intrinsically, but in many situations, he’s a fish out of water. He’s never really been able to settle down and live out a peaceful life. Since he came back to life, he got roped into the war against Carbon. Adventuring is far more familiar to him than anything else.
Spirits: None.
Kindred Spirits: Not sure yet. I was kinda in a rush to get this sheet out.
Inventory: He doesn’t really have much to call his own. Just the clothes he was wearing on the White November, a wallet with the money he got along his travels, and a broken pipe. He has, however, finally gotten a wardrobe in his time at Smash City Alcamoth, and donned the iconic white shirt he had in the Flash games.
Game Origin: Sonny (2017)
Appearance: As below. Note that I’m giving him the white shirt he wore in the Flash games as well.
Personality: This version of Sonny is significantly more well-adjusted than the one from the two Flash games that preceded him, despite his, shall we say…abrupt upbringing. Surprisingly for an amnesiac, he clearly remembers enough about the world to function within it. This is likely the consequence of whatever information was leftover in his brain before he was injected with the modified zombie virus strain (which is probably where his Received Pronunciation accent comes from). In addition, he’s kind of a dork at times.
He has a very casual way and down-to-earth of speaking, even in the heat of battle. Hell, he’s known to crack jokes in the middle of danger. He considers his infection more of a blessing than a curse. As he puts it, “When I came back to life, I had a SIX PACK. Do you know what that means to me?” At the same time, he knows when to take things seriously and when not to.
He’s also far more intelligent than he lets on: He was able to understand most of the scientific terminology flung around by Dr. Herregods, which shows that he might have been one of the researchers on the White November in life, rather than one of the ship’s laborers as his brawny frame would suggest. The fact that Carbon, the Praetor of the ZPCI, said his face looked familiar indicates that he was possibly either a former ZPCI soldier, a zombie cure researcher, or perhaps even both at different points in his life. This would explain his ability to wield every weapon he picks up competently, at the very least.
Background: Sonny began life as a corpse. Whatever man that corpse originally belonged to, he was one of the workers onboard a research ship, the White November. Even in a world ravaged by a zombie pandemic, the human race did not go down as easily as in some other stories. The humans of this world had dedicated themselves to fighting the virus across the globe, both physically, through the corporate paramilitary organization ZPCI (Zombie Pest Control, Incorporated), and scientifically, by developing a cure. The researchers aboard the White November were the latter, working diligently on the cure...but tragedy struck.
It’s not clear what caused it, but the zombie test subjects broke free from containment somehow and ran amok throughout the ship’s decks, murdering and turning most of the crew. A lone survivor, a researcher by the name of Louis, had one last tool to turn the situation around: A syringe filled with a modified strain of the zombie virus. Desperate to survive, he found the corpse of someone he knew, someone who was clearly on the way to turning at that, and injected him with the syringe, despite not even knowing if it would work. But, in a fortunate turn of events, not only did the modified viral strain overwhelm the original strain percolating in the young man’s body, but it kept his intelligence intact at that.
Just one problem: The newly-reanimated intelligent zombie had severe memory loss. The zombie took the name “Sonny” as it was the first thing Louis called him. It wasn’t like he had a name anyway.
Louis didn’t have the time to get the kid up to speed, as he and Sonny (mostly Sonny) had to fight for their lives in an attempt to get off the ship. Things were going great at first: Whatever Louis had injected Sonny with, he was far more powerful than the basic zombies that roamed the White November, with full mobility and enhanced strength and durability over his peers, along with regenerative abilities. Louis merely had to hang back and tell Sonny the basics of combat while Sonny completely annihilated everything in his path.
Unfortunately, Murphy’s Law kicked in. It turned out that a trio of ZPCI agents had already been dropped onto the ship and were, as ZPCI agents were wont to do, murdering every zombie in their path.

Heavy Weapons Guy
Game Origin: Team Fortress 2
Personality: It would be misleading to say that Heavy is a simpleton. Yes, he is but a simple man, content with the small things in life, especially three things; One, his joy in violence. Heavy will be the first one in the group to jump headlong into the fray, be it armed with his trusted minigun "Sasha" or his two, bare fists, ready to knock some heads. He's not a killing maniac however, we must hope to dear God, but finds the thrill of it unmatched, and thus has little care for his own safety. Two, his friends. While he jumps into the fray of combat with second thought, he makes sure to stand between the fray and those he holds dear; the Medic at the top, and the rest of Team RED at a close second. He would take a bullet - and has taken more than one can count - for his friends, to whom he is most loyal. Three, food. What else is there to say?
Background: Heavy Weapons Guy, hailing from the Siberian wastes of the glorious United Soviet Socialist Republics, spent most of his time serving his new employers of Reliable Excavation Demolition (RED) and working alongside his colleagues. As what you may ask? Well, as mercenaries of course! Shooting, blasting and fist-fighting his way across sand-filled compounds against their rivals in the Builders League United (BLU), Heavy was fighting to pay for his family still home in Mother Russia. There isn't much else to say about Heavy and his past, except for his Degree in Litterature and skills as a poker player.
The daily meatgrinder of mercenary work came to an abrupt end (for a second time after the robots attacked) when another colour attacked Heavy and his team, or both teams to be more exact. Was light a colour? No matter, the important part was that Galeem, the Lord of Light, attacked both teams in the middle of their 'business', destroying both teams, the whole map and the entire world. There was no Medic to heal him, no Engineer putting down a dispenser and no Scout to taunt him in death. And Heavy was angry.
Specialty: Tank
Level: 1
Experience: 0/10
Powers:
- Sandwich: While also serving as a healthy snack for The Heavy and possible allies, the mysterious Sandwich has the power to heal significant damage and injuries just by being digested.
Strengths:
- Strength of a Siberan Bear: As his apperance suggest, Heavy is a incredibly strong Russian giant, much stronger than the tiny baby men of BLU. Heavy can lift things most men never could, and then some. Whether or not he should is a completely different matter, but he will certainly try.
- Taunter: Taunting your enemy into submission is an art it itself, one Heavy has plenty of from his days in RED. Heavy has the ability to call out to his enemies, throwing mean names and insults at them to gain their attention, focusing their ire at him instead of his comrades. After all, they are so small, it's funny to him!
- "Get behind me!": As the designated tank of team RED, Heavy is used to soaking up damage directed at his comrades in arms. Heavy can take more damage than most normal humans could, shrugging off minor wounds with his bellying laughs in Russian. Not invulnerable by no means, but this Russian bear can take one heck of a beating.
Weaknesses:
- Slow runner: Not blessed with a strong constitution, nor particulary long legs, Heavy is a slow runner, easily falling behind his faster compatrions. He's meant to take on the enemy head-on, not chase after them.
- "Less talking, more fighting": Violence is more often than not the answer to Heavy's problems, at least according to himself. He wasn't hired by RED to talk in long, boring board-meetings with BLU after all, he's there to fight it out. Heavy thus has the tendency to fight instead of talking, much to the dismay of his less violent friends. Don't get on his bad side.
Spirits: (See Spirits section for details. Start with none)
Kindred Spirits:
- Medic - His very best friend and most useful teammate in RED. This German doktor with the medical knowledge of a genius and ethics of Frankstein always has Heavy's back, blasting him full of healing energy. The two of them working together, nothin can stop them!
- Bentley - The Brain -
Inventory:
-"Sasha" the Minigun, Heavy's main weapon of choice
-The Sandwich

The daily meatgrinder of mercenary work came to an abrupt end (for a second time after the robots attacked) when another colour attacked Heavy and his team, or both teams to be more exact. Was light a colour? No matter, the important part was that Galeem, the Lord of Light, attacked both teams in the middle of their 'business', destroying both teams, the whole map and the entire world. There was no Medic to heal him, no Engineer putting down a dispenser and no Scout to taunt him in death. And Heavy was angry.
Specialty: Tank
Level: 1
Experience: 0/10
Powers:
- Sandwich: While also serving as a healthy snack for The Heavy and possible allies, the mysterious Sandwich has the power to heal significant damage and injuries just by being digested.
Strengths:
- Strength of a Siberan Bear: As his apperance suggest, Heavy is a incredibly strong Russian giant, much stronger than the tiny baby men of BLU. Heavy can lift things most men never could, and then some. Whether or not he should is a completely different matter, but he will certainly try.
- Taunter: Taunting your enemy into submission is an art it itself, one Heavy has plenty of from his days in RED. Heavy has the ability to call out to his enemies, throwing mean names and insults at them to gain their attention, focusing their ire at him instead of his comrades. After all, they are so small, it's funny to him!
- "Get behind me!": As the designated tank of team RED, Heavy is used to soaking up damage directed at his comrades in arms. Heavy can take more damage than most normal humans could, shrugging off minor wounds with his bellying laughs in Russian. Not invulnerable by no means, but this Russian bear can take one heck of a beating.
Weaknesses:
- Slow runner: Not blessed with a strong constitution, nor particulary long legs, Heavy is a slow runner, easily falling behind his faster compatrions. He's meant to take on the enemy head-on, not chase after them.
- "Less talking, more fighting": Violence is more often than not the answer to Heavy's problems, at least according to himself. He wasn't hired by RED to talk in long, boring board-meetings with BLU after all, he's there to fight it out. Heavy thus has the tendency to fight instead of talking, much to the dismay of his less violent friends. Don't get on his bad side.
Spirits: (See Spirits section for details. Start with none)
Kindred Spirits:
- Medic - His very best friend and most useful teammate in RED. This German doktor with the medical knowledge of a genius and ethics of Frankstein always has Heavy's back, blasting him full of healing energy. The two of them working together, nothin can stop them!
- Bentley - The Brain -
Inventory:
-"Sasha" the Minigun, Heavy's main weapon of choice
-The Sandwich
Seems good to me! I assume you'll keep working at the Kindred Spirits section, since that can be changed up until the point at which one appears in the game.

@LugubriousGoodie! Yeah, still haven't decided completely on it. Working on a roster for it. But does that mean I'm accepted, and how do I best jump into the story?

You're accepted. I can PM you about getting you into the story, but the basic idea is that Heavy will join one of the three teams currently on mission. Red Team (Bowser, Blazermate, Banjo & Kazooie, Doom Slayer, and Donnie) is in the Dead Zone, a destroyed city infested with demons and zombie plagues. Yellow Team (Tora and Poppi, Midna, Sectonia, Primrose, and Fox) is in the Sandswept Sky, a massive desert. Blue Team (Ace Cadet, Bowser Jr and Kamek, Sakura, and Geralt) are in the Edge of the Blue, a coastal / aquatic region. There are also NPCs with each party. Whichever region would make the most sense for Heavy to be hanging out in (probably not the Dead Zone) is good for you to start in, and you could just have him bump into the player characters there.

Please do send that PM, and I'll think about where he'd fit in best. So far I'm thinking with Yellow Team, but that's up to you. Glad to be onboard!

@ONL, go ahead and move your character into the Characters tab, if you don't mind. Also, the Medic is in Heavy's area, so if you can complete Heavy's kindreds in the near future I would be all the happier.
Red Team is en route to the final Qliphoth Root and the boss battle therein. Now's a good chance for your characters to either chat while heading there, either on foot or in the van, or to just knock some mooks' heads on the way. The NPCs are all open for interaction of course. Up to you!
