[OOC] X-Men: The Divided

[Solemn]

Yeah, I'm gonna make a second character - was actually waiting for the right time to post her, but just searching for an adequate pic at this point. Her bio is done.

I'm the opposite, I have a picture (Though you will need to use you're imagination) but no real bio for the said character. I have some fragments of her life before the secret of her powers come out but that's it.

posted, had to use Cyclops a tiny little bit, just to allow my post to flow.And I had an idea about my second character:Sort of based on angel apart from a couple of things - 1) his wings are different (he has four insect like wings)2) his eyes are like those of an insect 3) he is a lot faster then angel4) he is about 4 or 5 times stronger then the average human (about twice that of a 'worlds strongest man' contender)or would that be too powerful?

Question is do you think it is OP?

[Zagan]

Not really. Its not as if he can really cause that much destruction (compared to others like my current character)

Also the fact they will need to be close to the target to do something unless throwing something seems to make it even less so. Let's just hope there is a balance between ranged and melee characters. I do have several other characters I could use instead but hopefully I won't need to.

[Solemn]

Name: Appolina Hale
Alias: Bloom
Age: 19
Gender: Female

Powers: Botanokinesis - Bloom can listen, talk to and cause plants to grow as well as revert back to a seed. In theory, she could destroy pretty much anything in a lush enough environment, trap opponents in roots and grasses, but because of her uselessness in most urban environments, she typically does not participate actively as a member of the X-Men.

Personality: She is light, air-y and kind. Often lost in thought she can sometimes appear very aloof, but this is most certainly not the case. She loves to talk to people, to laugh and have fun. That isn't to say she doesn't get serious, but typically she'll have a joke or some whimsical observation to interject and diffuse any situation in danger of becoming serious.

Bio: Appolina grew up in El Dorado Hills, CA to a loving, well-off family. Both of her parents were successful in their respective fields and provided a very lofty life, often giving her the freedom to explore the fields and forests in the area around her. Still, her parents would be away for long periods at a time on business, but that just meant she could spend more time in the woodlands, reading, singing, dancing, whatever struck her fancy for the moment. Life was utterly painless and impressed an optimism upon her that would never cease.

When her powers manifested, all she could hear were barely audible whispers calling to her from the forest. It made no sense, she felt as though her mind was betraying her. Of course, this 'betrayal' lasted until a sunflower sang to her. A rose called her pretty, a dandelion giggled incessantly with her and a thistle asked for a kiss. The whisper only seemed to grow, though, calling her into the forest once more.

After being approached by the Professor with an offer for a particularly special school, her parents supported the decision, knowing full and well who this man was and what that meant for their daughter. "We'd always wondered why the roses never died," her father had joked, ruffling her thick hair about - she would later tattoo the phrase across her collarbone, much to their chagrin. They supported the decision to go to Xavier's school one-hundred percent, out of love for opportunity, their daughter, and a fear of what might happen if someone else discovered she was a mutant first.

And so she lives at the mansion, working on a botany degree with specialized courses and caring for those around her, plants and students alike.

[MistressCyanide]

I finally meet her, I remember you bringing her up. I like her a lot.

I will most likely add it to the front and place it under your name.

[Solemn]

I'm glad you like her. She is kind of the complete opposite of X, so, this should get interesting. I'll post later today since it's, well, 6 in the morning.

[MistressCyanide]

OK, I posted something as well, it was something that my brain wanted me to post and had been in my head for a few days now. It is a little silly but that is what I wanted apparently.

Iceman playing Ironman the video game, self promotion I see.

[knighthawk]

So... I'm thinking between a gravity manipulator, a precognitive, and someone with superstrength who cant turn it off and has to wear a vibranium suit.

[MistressCyanide]

The gravity one sounds pretty cool to me, I also think the precognitive idea works as well.

[Zagan]

Mistress. With my second character, is it ok as is or should i give him something to grow into?

[MistressCyanide]

I think because they would most likely be new I think the character should grow into the full strength over time. So start at 2 or 2.5 and slowly go to 5. Really it is up to you, as long as you do something to show their is growth it should not be a problem. I have given my character some limits at the moment though they are not very good ones due to the powers she has, she more of a modified mutant like Wolverine barring the nose thing.

[Zagan]

Okay. Sounds like a plan. Might as well do that with the flight speed as well to make sure he has something to grow into? Ill post when im home. Dont like long posts on my mobi

I feel you, I tried it a few times and it was not easy to do.

I'm debating. See, I like Skittles (and really want to use that code name), but I like the idea of T.E.A.C.S.U.n. 5 (that stands for Tactical Espionage Armored Cybernetic Stealth Unit number 5) Her code name is Tea C. Sun the V (seeing as she is under the impression Teacsun 5 is her real name). Her original mutant powers were of technopathy and technokinesis. As well as a thing I call Data Resolution (it's wrong but is sounds cool). Basically she could talk to computers and control technology. DR lets her manifest data into the real world (with restrictions. They don't last long as they have no physical anchor to this world). She was captured and put into the same program as Aya was. However during Aya's escape, she was fatally injured and died, but was brought back to life by the surviving scientists as a cyborg to hunt down and kill Aya. But her powers have been GREATLY diminished. All she can control now is a little adamantium microchip in her brain that contains the data for her armor and weapons. She can DR them to assist on missions, but just what's in the chip. Her arms are both cybernetic as is her whole rib cage and her heart and lungs. She also has various cybernetic upgrades allowing her strength equal to twice that of an average human her size. The proffesor managed to subdue her and Forge helped him break through her programming. Now she's a student at the school, and has offered to handle the tougher jobs that the X-Men can't associate with (X-Force style).

I don't know. Which is more interesting. A woman with seven personalities who can fire beams out of any high cluster of nerves on her body... or a woman who was killed, brought back as a cyborg assassin, and can manifest armor and weaponry from an indestructible chip in her brain? Or maybe I should be a man? I have a man who is an anthropomorphic white tiger who is a good at kung-fu and has a sonic roar. Urgh! Now that I can use another character, I don't know who!

[MistressCyanide]

I know how you feel I am torn between a few characters, one who is a vampire/mutant, I have a morphing character and a cyborg as well plus the other I just came up with.

I can't decide for you, do whatever you feel like, maybe the split personality could work then again maybe one of the others tickle your fancy this time round.

[CrimsonWarrior55]

Now that I've thrown Lee into the mix (the Tiger) I'm kinda wanting to use him. He can't stop being a tiger man.

[Zagan]

Name: Jax Smith
Code Name: Dragonfly
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Appearance:
He wears a trench coat to cover his four dragonfly like wings, the aforementioned trench coat has slits so that he can still fly, his eyes are not human and they too look like Dragonfly eyes and to fit in often wears sunglasses although this helps him as his eye sight is a lot better and more sensitive then normal.

Powers:

• Super strength (5 times more then a trained athlete but as he has come into his powers this is about 2.5 times stronger, so he could dead lift about 200-240 kgs)


• Flight - like his strength as he has recently come into his powers he is apt at flying but he is not yet at the full potential (speed, finesse etc...)


• Super eye sight - as his eyes are more powerful he is able to see in the dark and to a small degree sees in slow motion (well not exactly slow motion, but his eyes are able to see and comprehend more then a normal humans so he has more time to react to things)

Personality: a true loner, he trusts no one and keeps to himself most of the time as his past has taught him that others either dont care or just want to hurt and punish him.

History: even before his powers emerged he was hated by his parents; they were more interested in almost anything and everything else other then their son, he was bullied at school and no one cared. It was during one particularly brutal fight were four of the older kids had started to pick on him and beat him up his eyes turned and his strength shot up, allowing him to overpower the bullies, breaking four arms, five ribs two legs and a cracked skull - he was thrown out of the school, his parents recieved the call from the school and tried to beat him up for causing them such trouble which did not end well for Jax's parents, he called 911 and then ran, leaving the house with just a pair of shades and his favorite trench coat which his grandparents had gotten him shortly before they both passed.

The nights on the street were hard and painful, mixed dreams of pain, a calming voice calling to him - it had been a hard month, stealing to eat, hiding to survive, and with four points of constant pain on his back, life was not easy. Three weeks in and the pain in his back had gone but Jax could feel something more...different, having managed to adjust to his new physical power he broke in to a clothing store for a new set of clothes (but still keeping his trench coat) and this was the first time he saw - them, his new limbs, four powerful looking wings, this gave Jax options, while his dreams/nightmares were still full of pain, there was still the voice, calming and calling.

More time passed in solitude as Jax practiced using his wings and staying air born for long periods of time, for as time passed, something was easing the pain and images began to fill his mind about a safe haven for him, it showed him beautiful buildings - other kids around his age playing, learning and training together, but his own instincts at hows his life had panned out so far kicked in and were trying to block these foreign images but failing - coming to the conclusion he could leave this place if he wanted to he set out, flying by night, resting and recharging by day he was making his way - following the voice...

That okay, not much on personality as there is not much to say lol

Might give him a sword or bo-staff to use?

[CrimsonWarrior55]

I've decided to go with Teacsun!

Name: T.E.A.C.S.U.n 5 (Tactical Espionage Armored Cybernetic Stealth Unit number 5)
-Code Name: Tea C. Sun the V, on mission: Armory
-Age: 18
-Gender: Female
-Appearance:For Tea (That's TEY-ah by the way. I just can't find the ' to put over the e) herself, she looks like this:

Her armor looks like this minus the helmet (but obviously adjusted for a female frame), and the back is covered with plates that can... essentially fold out into wings, but I'll explain that later:

For her helmet? This:
[img][/img]
While her entire right arm, left forearm, and both forelegs are fully cybernetic, the last layer of metal is colored to resemble her skin, but is slightly lighter.
-Powers: Tea used to be a very strong technokinetic with technopathic ability as well, however, those day have since passed. Her technopathy has been reduced to merely hearing whispers in machines, and her technokinesis is limited to strictly what's in her body, specifically the adamantium micro chip in her brain. Using a combo of both technopathy and technokinesis, she can take the data stored on the chip and forcibly materialize it in the real world. This is called Data Resolution. However, this is only temporary as the objects true form is data and thus has no real anchor in this world. After one minute the data will derezz (yeah, I stole that from Tron. It sounds cool) back into data and enter a "cooldown" period of about one hour. The only exception to this rule is her armor and the weapons it contains. This is because it was reverse rezzed. Basically, her armor IS real, and was merely turned into data and stored on the chip. Thus, it can exist in the real world forever, but can only be held on the chip for exactly 24 hours at a time. The back of the armor also has plates that fold out into a wing shape and while she does have six jets under them (two main, the rest for maneuvering), as well as a brake jet in her torso, flight is impossible. Due to her weight, the energy output required would drain her generator (her heart) ridiculously fast. However she can glide, and use the jets to assist in a high jump or to shift direction in the middle of a jump.

Her armor's weaponry includes:
Twin pistols: Stored in and attached to, her gauntlets (all ammo is data)
Twin collapsable mini SMGs: Stored in her thigh guards (all ammo is data)
Collapsible Bow: Stored in her left gauntlet, opposite her pistol (to use, she has to turn the gauntlet to line the bow with her hand. Arrows are data)
Cybernetic right arm also contains an experimental high-output energy projectile device. However, this is dangerous to use because risk of overheating could result in permanent damage to arm systems. Usage recommended only as last resort.

Data Weaponry includes:
Ammo for pistols (as magazines) - 20 total
Ammo for SMGs (as magazines) - 30 total
Arrows for Bow (individual) - 10
Twin katanas (because katanas are just better)

And that's it. But if the lock on her microchip was removed somehow, more data could be added or removed.

WARNING - WARNING - Armor shock-absorbing systems and anti-electrical systems are malfunctioning. Too much damage can cause system to fail and allow heavy impacts and/or high voltage shocks to knock some systems offline. Please exercise caution when facing dangerous opponents such as mutants. Stealth kills recommended...

-Personality: Almost non existent due to programing blocks. If these were somehow removed, Tea's true friendly, kind, noble personality would show through. But removing these blocks would also require complete erasure of memory.
-History: Mutant Number 24242012 was one of many captives held in a secret facility deep in the forest. Kidnapped at the age of 15, she was forced to compete in bloody competitions against other mutants. At a strict disadvantage due to the nature of her powers, she was forced to team up with others to survive. One girl, Mutant Number 25962007, took to her like a sister. They were best friends, but knew better than to flaunt it. However, 25962007 eventually fell in love and 24242012 began to feel left out. So she trained hard to keep up with her sister and her girlfriend, requesting from her machine friends (that had been given to her to fight with) donations. Soon she had built a beautiful suit of armor to use. Requesting extra fights to break it in, she was so happy as she could finally stand on her own. She wanted to show her sister, but before she could. She was called away to Site B. Apparently they wanted to test some new mutants and she was chosen. She did her duty for a year and finally got to return home. But... 24242012 had no inkling of what was to come. She had just returned when suddenly, there was a bright flash, a rush of wind, and an unbearable heat. Instinctively she began to put on her suit, but before she could, the van she was in was flung into the air, tumbling head over side. After what seemed an eternity it stopped, and she crawled from the wreckage. She could tell her legs were broken. Looking into the front cab, she could see her handlers, bones jutting every which way, bodies contorting unnaturally. Looking over at what hit them, she was stunned to see Site A gone. There was nothing there anymore but debris and a rising mushroom cloud. Trying to get over there as fast as possible (she couldn't be dead... she couldn't be dead!), she never got more than two feet before the van's ruptured gas tank detonated... and Mutant Number 24242012 knew no more...

(If this is good my first post with her will be post-operation and resurrection. By the way, I know she's a lot over-powered, but that warning is there for a reason. She's going to lose a lot of her abilities in her fight with Aya and anyone else who wants to join. And who knows. MAybe one day down the line she'll be repaired, maybe even upgraded)

[LovelyAnastasia]

I have a post ready but I didn't really know what to write, so it's not an intriguing post... I guess it's writers block! So I'm sorry ahead of time and don't mind my character much, a panic attack was the only thing that came to my mind
