[OOC] The Blessing of a Curse [Always Accepting]

[Ozzoquen]

Edited the name/number order and the number itself! \o/

[VitoftheVoid]

Right, I've committed and made the edit!

[Rockin Strings]

@TheMushroomLord Yes.

@VitoftheVoid@Ozzoquen Both accepted.

[RumikoOhara]

Good start, just a couple of things. Firstly, the last 2 digits of your number should be between 05 and 09 as the numbers are meant to represent the date they were taken into the complex. Secondly, the only life she'd have so far would be inside the complex as she would've been an infant upon being chosen to be a patient.

@Rockin Strings

Repaired both

[Rockin Strings]

@RumikoOhara One last question, since she's a patient of Schroder, does she stand more for or against his ideals?

[Randomness]

I've been keeping an eye on this, and I'd like to join if that's acceptable.

[Rockin Strings]

@Randomness Go ahead and make a CS.

[RumikoOhara]

@RumikoOhara One last question, since she's a patient of Schroder, does she stand more for or against his ideals?

@Rockin Strings

Against
She acts as if she's a willing participant in the development of her ability but the blindfold she's forced to wear and has been banned from any outdoor activity fuels a desire to one day vanish over the horizon.

[Rockin Strings]

@RumikoOhara Accepted.

Lance 032307

Name: Lance 032307

Appearance: He is about 5 ft tall weighing 98 lbs., on the slim side. He wears khakis, sneakers, and button-down shirts with different patterns (Stripes, zigzags, polka dots, etc.). He has pale skin, black hair that he lets grow out enough to cover his eyes. He has blue eyes and requires corrective lenses because he dislikes contacts. He doesn’t care for or have jewelry or tattoos. He is as active as he can be.

As a precaution, he has a heavy lead suit to move from room to room, so traveling without it is a privilege.

Personality: He is a people pleaser who doesn’t want to make those around him angry or upset to the point where he will sacrifice his own happiness and sometimes safety to achieve it. He will easily fall to peer pressure even if his personal morals would conflict with it. He’ll treat everyone with respect and will accept blame justifying how his involvement might have caused the problem regardless of evidence. He enjoys walking, reading, and just being out of the room whenever that’s possible. He doesn’t like causing trouble.

Abilities: Electromagnetic wave manipulation (15 Pt), Electromagnetic wave generation (10 Pt), Radiation immunity (5 Pt)

He is capable of producing medium ranged waves easily ranging from UV, infrared, and visible light. He has to exert more effort for microwave and radio, and even more than that to reach x ray and gamma.
He can increase/decrease wave length into other forms from an existing source more easily than producing them.
Manipulation includes blocking waves so he can essentially create literal black out zones.
This does not give him x-ray or infrared vision.

Doctor: Dr. Sing

[Rockin Strings]

@Randomness Just for my own understanding, are there materials his waves can't pass through?

[Randomness]

The standard materials naturally accruing waves cannot. Lead for example. Metal will still react to microwaves. The waves he generate are the same from X-ray machines, microwave ovens, etc. so whatever people use to protect from those will work against his.

From my basic research lead is good against most of them.
Tungsten, bismuth, and tin as well. And then artificially carbon shielding with energy absorbing properties. You could probably make up a sci-fi material using those elements if you need to.

Microwaves have barely any perpetrating power and just heat most basic building material.
Radio waves can be blocked by conductive material.
Light is blocked by all no translucent sources.
Infrared is blocked by conductive material (ie copper and aluminum)
UV is blocked by solid building material or ozone
X-rays by lead, tungsten, bismuth
Gamma is near impossible in a tight setting. You’d need several feet of lead. But it’s very hard for Lance to produce them. He can’t accidentally do it. And he is usually not successful. He’d have a better time turning X-rays into gamma rays since something else is exerting energy to produce them.

[Rockin Strings]

@Randomness Accepted.

@Kiki is Anxious@VitoftheVoid@Ozzoquen@RumikoOhara@Randomness First post up, go when you're ready. After the first round, we'll be keeping the same rotation.

[Kiki is Anxious]

@Rockin Strings
Are they permitted to go out of their rooms right now? Can they see Axel from their rooms?

[Rockin Strings]

@Kiki is Anxious Their doors are gone and Axel is in their hallway. You can decide amongst yourselves if anyone wants to share a room.

[Rockin Strings]

@Kiki is Anxious Great post, only 1 thing: because of his control over metal, and the fact he moves it like liquid, it wouldn't make any sound.

[TheMushroomLord]

Apologies for the late submission and hoping I'm not too late. It's been a busy past few day's and I was struggling to think up a concept I wanted to play (ended up recycling one from a dead RP).

040309

Name: Felix – 040309
Appearance: Felix is a young boy of Chinese-Australian descent with straight black hair and brown eyes. His physical characteristics and build are all around average for his age, if marginally smaller than average, coming in at 140cm tall and weighing 36kg.

Felix’s most noticeable trait is his incredibly long hair, spanning well over half his body height, and surprisingly healthy if a bit of a mess. Rather than being the product of a choice on Felix’s part, his hair is the result of his ability making it impossible to cut.

As far as clothing goes, Felix doesn’t really understand or care about fashion and usually wears whatever’s available without question so long as it’s comfortable. Generally, this means that Felix ends up wearing very plain and simple clothing.

Personality: Felix is very timid, the kind of kid that struggles to talk to others and prefers to keep to himself, preferably somewhere where no one will notice him. He finds it very hard to open up to people and tends to view anyone he doesn't know well as someone that might be dangerous. In the rare event where he does get to the point where he considers someone a friend he can trust he tends to anchor onto that person for support, becoming very reluctant to separate.

Felix is also pretty smart, especially considering his age, he catches on to things quickly and has a nearly insatiable curiosity, one of the few things that can coax him out of his shell. Unfortunately, this intelligence also manifests itself as a nasty tendency to overthink things, often to the point of working himself into a panic over otherwise inconsequential things. Strangely, in spite of his overthinking Felix exhibits very little fear when it comes to the prospect of pain or injury, likely as a result of growing up with his ability.

Thanks to growing up surrounded by superhumans, and his general lack of interactions with people in general, Felix has ended up with a very warped idea of what’s normal. He's of the impression that superhuman abilities are the norm, not the exception, having a very skewed view of what falls within the range of an ordinary person being able to do or survive.

Abilities:

• Degeneration (5 pts): Any part of Felix’s body that dies or is separated from his body, by natural processes or otherwise, will begin to decay with a half-life of about 3 seconds.
  As material degenerates, most of the matter is absorbed as energy to power Felix’s regenerative ability, though some is lost as heat. In cases where only a small amount degenerates the heat generated is negligible, however with larger quantities the heat can quickly become more severe. As Felix possesses no abnormal resistance to heat, it is possible for his degeneration to hurt him should he sustain enough damage in a short period of time.
• Regeneration (25 pts): With the exception of some natural processes, whenever Felix is damaged in any way his body immediately begins to rapidly restore itself to a healthy, undamaged state. The energy and material needed to facilitate this regeneration is provided by Felix’s degeneration ability.
  As a side effect of his regeneration, Felix can endure a number of normally harmful conditions, like physical exhaustion or starvation, without any real consequence, though in most cases such conditions remain painful.
  Strangely enough, Felix’s finger and toenails seem to be unaffected by his regenerative abilities, healing like a normal person’s when damaged instead of regenerating.

Doctor: Dr. Grey

[Rockin Strings]

@TheMushroomLord Well written character, good explanation of his powers, he's accepted.

[Mintz]

Hm...This sounds pretty interesting. Could I join? I see that it's technically started, so I'm not sure if you'd want another character, but hey! Can't hurt to ask.
