[OOC] Heroes: The Fall

[Chev]

It's been nearly thirty years since the Heroes of the world finally met their match in the form of a vast unified force of super-villains under the banner of a mysterious figure. They struck all around the world in a single night, nearly rendering their heroic counterparts extinct. What few heroes remained after the purge either died fighting or went into hiding, their spirits shattered after seeing the horrors that they had failed to prevent. Captain America, Spider-Man, Thor, they all fell one after another against the combined forces that were thrown against them. Certain Villains such as Magneto, Doctor Doom and others were given the territories that they had conquered as rewards for their actions during the purge.

But in the years after the purge, the infighting amongst certain Villains began as they began to grow tired of the territory they had been awarded and looked to expand their territories. As this infighting began, more and more minor villains and self-proclaimed Warlords emerged and began to fight amongst themselves throwing much of the territories into chaos.

Now, as the Villains fight amongst themselves a new generation of heroes is emerging.

It's time to bring the fight to them.

• Real name: Mackenzie McDowell
• Hero Name: TBA. Will probably come up with one during the RP.
• Age: 17
• Powers: Mackenzie is a mutant, and was born with the power of invulnerability. It is practically impossible to hurt her, and pretty much any attack on her will cause no damage whatsoever. She is immune to disease and radiation, and her invulnerable brain is also unable to be affected by mental interference, mind control or telepathy. Her primary weaknesses are that she still needs to breathe and eat to survive, but there is also the fact that this is her only power. Whilst her strength does seem a little disproportionate for her build, this is solely because her body does not need to hold back to stop itself from being damaged, and it is still within human levels. In addition, she possesses no anchoring abilities, and powerful blows will send her flying like a ragdoll.

• Appearance: Fixed up and coloured but in need of shading. She's roughly 5'8".

• History: It's not really uncommon for a child to grow up not knowing their parents anymore, not in this day and age. Mackenzie's parents died when she was young, although whether it was from natural causes, failing to cope with the harsh life they had to live under such oppressive rule or even if they were murdered is something she can't remember. However, this never really bothered her, as even though she never knew her parents she was always surrounded by those who cared for her. For as long as she can remember, Mackenzie has been part of a group of mutant orphans and runaways calling themselves the "X-Gang" after the legendary X-Men of old. And as she grew up, she and her friends looked out for each other, surviving as best they could on the lawless streets. Even though times were tough and they faced persecution not only for being street rats but for the simple fact that they were mutants, they always stuck together and clinged to the hope that one day, things would be better. One day, maybe, the dream of the late Charles Xavier would come to pass, that mutants and regular humans could co-exist peacefully... But that wasn't going to happen anytime soon, not as long as the supervillains ran the world. Eventually, Mackenzie couldn't take it anymore and decided to take things into her own hands. Leaving the X-Gang in the care of her best and most trusted friends, she headed off with nothing but the clothes on her back and the lucky baseball bat that was her only memento of her parents and embarked on her quest: to seek out evil and bash its face in as hard as she could.

• Personality: Hotblooded, restless and unwilling to show fear of anything. Mackenzie is very enthusiastic about fighting, although this mostly stems from a want to prove that she is strong rather than any real malice. As she also possesses a strong sense of justice, this often means she gets into fights with those serving the rulers of this world; something she has absolutely no problem with. Despite her fight-happy ways and the fact that she looks like a delinquent, Mackenzie is actually a very pleasant, friendly person, albeit a bit rough around the edges. Once she decides you are her friend, she will fight as hard as she can to protect you.

• Affiliation: Hero
• Equipment: Mackenzie carries around with her a battered aluminium baseball bat, which she uses as her primary weapon. Whilst it has no real supernatural powers, she considers it to be her lucky bat.

[Adriane]

Real Current Name: Cat
*Cat's birth name is known only to her as she no longer goes by it and refuses to give it out.
Hero Name: Shift
Age: 23
Gender: Identifies as female, regardless of her form
Powers:

Shape-shifter

Cat can shape-shift, both into other people and animals. When she touches someone or some animal, she gains the ability to physically transform into them. She appears exactly the way they looked the last time she touched them (including clothing, personal belongings touching their person, and hygiene), and her voice also changes to match theirs. If they have any physical ailments or injuries, those also appear and affect her while she's in their form. If she shifts into a supernatural being with a physical-oriented power she can access it, but it takes a massive amount of energy that would result in immediate unconsciousness and she therefore rarely uses it. She doesn't need any energy to stay in a certain form, but it takes energy to shift between them. The bigger the form, the more energy it takes going into it. Due to that, she's usually tired and hungry and takes naps often.

She's also trained in basic combat and covert operations.

Appearance:
Cat's default human form is a young woman seen below. She's slim, Caucasian, and stands at about five foot seven.

*Any other forms she takes will be described in the text when she takes them.

History: Cat was born in the heat of summer and given to an overcrowded, underfunded orphanage. It didn't take long for people to forget about her, and it took even less time for her to figure out how to hide. The first few years of her life were bustling and chaotic, assisted only by a stray cat she made friends with, and it was as though no one knew she even existed. Unknowingly, she was changing between every kid at the orphanage she had touched - literally making it as though she didn't exist. It didn't take much longer for her to run away from the orphanage. She found out what she was doing by accident soon afterwards, and once she figured out how to control it life on the street was surprisingly easy.

She grew up quickly, and got over any fear of the law and death she had. Something happened in one body? Change to another. Running out of money? Find someone with some. Tired of dealing with people? Become a cat, or a dog. Cold? Fly south with the birds. It seemed that the world was her oyster - life couldn't get much better. And then it did. She stumbled across a group of people that knew what she was, and took her in. They trained her, and for a while she ran with them. It wasn't the same independence as before, but that was something she was willing to trade in for the sense of family they gave her.

But then, they pushed their power too far. The others believed they had the right to take people's lives simply because they wanted to, and Cat did not agree. That was a poison she refused to sip. When they wouldn't take the drink away, she abandoned them. The gang didn't take this lightly - leaving Cat with no choice but to move, find a new name, and stop using every form she had taken in their presence. She went back to the streets, back to the life of robbing people's pockets, homes, and lives. Despite her ability to be anyone, she knew she needed to lay low from then on. There would be no more assuming someone's form and taking a sudden, uncharacteristic trip to Australia - her old friends would be watching.

One day she picked the wrong man to mug, and ended up befriending Izzy. They bonded easily, and have been together since.

Personality: Cat is determined, and generally persistent and stubborn until she gets her way. She is independent save Izzy, who she takes care of as dearly as she cares for herself. She's very wary and careful with new people, and though she has an easy-going demeanor there are people she refuses to get along with. The majority of these people are those she doesn't trust at all. Trust is a large part of relationships to her, and can be easily violated. She's often blunt with people and becomes annoyed with those who sugarcoat bad situations. She reacts on impulse and instinct to most situations, and has a keen eye for details. Her respect for authority was completely eradicated from her system during her stint with the gang, and she had a burning hatred for people telling her what to do. Her morality is a blurred gray line - she has no problem with breaking into houses and stealing people's identities, but she takes murders personally.

Affiliation: Hero

Equipment: Most of her human forms carry a pocket knife.

Other: She has a thing for tattoos, her second default form is an orange tabby cat, and she considers Izzy family.

[Metronome]

Real name: Isaiah "Izzy" Toman
Hero Name: Gear
Age: 23
Gender: Male

Personality: Izzy is laid back, kind natured, and maybe even a bit gullible. He gets along easily with most anyone. He's often taken for an idiot, mostly because of how he talks or the way he act, but he's actually pretty smart. He has a natural knack for computers and other machines, and he's a fast learner. Izzy has a photographic memory. Everything he reads, sees, and learns just sticks. This can also be a disadvantaged; there are some things he'd rather forget.

Powers: Izzy is electrokinetic and a technopath. He can understand/control machines just by being near them or touching them. He can also create electricity, although it's not very powerful. The most he can do with it is maybe tase someone with it, or jumpstart a car if he needed to.
If given a larger, more powerful source, Izzy's electrical powers can be amplified. (He may or may not make some sort of power pack for this purpose later on)

Affiliation: Hero

Equipment: None at the moment.

Appearance: Izzy is tall with a lean build, standing at 6'3". He has a pale, freckled skin, brown hair that's half in dreads, half loose, and blue eyes. His right arm has a tattoo sleeve of shapes and designs. He may or may not have other tattoos.


History: Izzy's parents passed away in a car accident when he was fairy young. He was left in the custody of his uncle for most of his childhood. His uncle was didn't have kids of his own, and honestly had no business raising one. Izzy tolerated abuse from him until he finished highschool and left as soon as he could.

Izzy was smart, sure, but he wasn't good at making other people realize that. It was hard for him to act professional enough to keep a job. He was lazy, irresponsible, and didn't respond well to orders. Soon enough, he found himself jobless and out of money. Izzy landed on the street with no one to blame but himself. Still, given his optimism, he made the best of it. After a couple years of loneliness, he made himself a friend, Cat, who was also down on her luck and homeless.

The two are currently still hobos. (assuming the team hasn't formed yet)

[Metronome]

This is my villain. He'll come in later at some point.

Silas

You would think by my bios that I have a thing for tall guys.

Real name: Silas Rojas
Hero Name: None
Age: 31
Gender: Male

Personality: Silas is, for lack of better words, a mad man. He has crazed amounts of determination, like a dog with a bone. When he wants something, he gets it one way or another. Anyone in his way is collateral damage. He's a very eccentric man, with a strange sense of humor and a tendency for mood whiplashes. His 'family' is the only thing he really cares for.

Powers: Nothing very impressive. He arguably has enhanced senses and strength, but that's about it. He has an extraordinary talent to master most weapons he picks up.

Affiliation: Villain

Equipment: A range of weapons that mostly exclude guns. Silas doesn't believe guns are bloody enough for a proper sacrifice. The messier, the better.

Appearance: Silas is a large man, standing at 6'7" and weighing as much as a small car. His muscles have muscles. His head is crowned with a nest of wild, black hair. His body is often decorated with strange cultist symbols and paint.


History:

Silas was abandoned by his parents on the streets of a run down South American city. He was found by a group of cultists who worship a god of Chaos, Macrin. They believe that, unless they sacrifice innocent lives to Macrin, he will become angry and destroy the world. They honestly believe what they do is for a better cause.

The cultists pruned Silas to join their ranks. Over the years, he became the leader of a small division that focused on hired assassination. He was very good at his job. Good enough to get the attention of the evil bossman in Washington. He was hired to come to the US and help keep the rebellions under control. Silas was like a mad dog the boss could wave around in people's faces if they got too cocky.

Once the bossman heard about the group, he sent Silas and his 'family' to stop them.

WIP


Real name: Quinn Qadir Quire
Hero Name: Omega
Powers: Due to being the child of two mutants, Quinn ended up developing a few abilities which were inherited from both parents. This includes:

• Minor pyrokinesis. While Quinn cannot produce flames from thing air like his mother, he is able to raise the temperature of him and the surrounding area when angry. This means that this abilities is very hard to control.


• Psionic Weaponry. Quinn also has the ability to channel his mental energy as a astral energy shotgun construct which doesn't cause any external affects but has the aspect of mental damage leading to intense pain, unconsciousness or possibly death.


• Psychic intelligence, another ability inherited from his father, Quinn is able to organize and construct his thoughts at accelerated rates, process data at high speeds, as well as being able to construct and formulate his thoughts with vast quantity


• It is thought that due to his being an old avatar of the Phoenix Force, one day, Quinn too will take the role.

History: Quinn was born to mutants Quentin Quire and Idie Okonkwo, just days after the villains of the world banded together and began to take down the heroes. At this point of time, his father who was at that point the current avatar of the Phoenix Force, was still fighting back against the the onslaught of super-villains with the remaining X-men. After an attack led by Magneto, the X-men were defeated, apart from Quentin who managed to escape before taking Idie and their day old son to the Kingdom of Wakanda, one of the last remaining safe places on the planet.
Idie raised Quinn, protecting and training him for the future, while Quentin continued to fight back as the Phoenix. Quinn discovered at an early age that he was a mutant, inheriting a couple of his parent's abilities. On his twelfth birthday, his father decided it was time for him to see the outside world and the empire that the villains of the world ruled. Trouble awaited them however when they returned to Wakanda, That day happened to be the day that Wakanda was invaded by the forces of Latveria. Idie had been fighting back against Dr Doom when the two returned, but before they could intervene, Doom shot her in the head, killing her. In his rage Quentin killed Doom, although afterwards it was revealed that his troops had planted a nuclear device nearby, which was set to detonate in minutes. Quentin then took the device away from the planet's surface, saving Wakanda, although sacrificing his life in the process.
Quinn however was left alone with the remaining members of the village. They continued his training until he decided that it was time to help take back the states and continue his father's work.
Personality: While quick to anger, Quinn is usually calm and collected, often taking situations very seriously if needed.
Affiliation: Hero
Equipment: A psionic shotgun if that counts?

Real name: Patrick Raggenford

Hero Name: Ton

Powers: He was turned into a hulk like creature through tests giving him super strength, increased size (was six feet tall and is now nine feet tall), whole new personality,increased agility and is able to leach heat from things. He also does not need air for quite a while and can keep himself together in the void of space but he can still be killed by possibly a heavy duty armour piercing bullet.

Appearance: Patrick has Caucasian skin while Ton has very dark turquoise skin. His hair is black and short.
Hulk form:


Human form:


History: Patrick was born a while before the uprise of the villains and was about ten or so when the villains took over. He was slow to change to the new way of life but he became hardened by the new world he lived in after a few years. When he was seventeen he had begun robbing people in order to get enough money to buy medicine for his sick mother. His mother passed on due to lack of medical attention but he continued to steal long after the passing of his mother. He began to assault people to who wouldn't give up their valuables. Eventually he began to be able to live the good life and even had his own gang of thieves.
Life was good for Patrick but he craved more power. The power that the superhuman dictators possessed so when he heard there was some experiments going on to try and recreate past heroes into a new villainous militia he jumped at the opportunity. Patrick was given a jumpsuit and a metal belt when he got there. He was told to go wait in a room down the hall for the tests to begin. He waited in the room for a few minutes before one of the walls pulled away showing something that looked like a laser which shot a blinding green light into the room. The pain was intense like your insides were burning and freezing at the same time and with every scream from Patrick he began to change. His skin colour, size and muscle mass changed and once it was all over and the light stopped he was now slumped over on the floor as a hulking beast. One of the scientist who had been operating the laser like device activated the gamma absorption belt (or GAB for short) but rather than siphoning all the gamma energy out of Patrick it couldn't handle the levels that had been put inside him and failed to do its job. Soon the beast that had once been Patrick got up from its slump and began to destroy the entire facility in rage. After reducing the facility to rubble the beast now known as Ton ran off into hiding.

Personality: Patrick is very head strong and cocky. He's always sure of himself and will often deny if he's done something wrong. He will resort to dirty tricks and will run away from a fight rather than actually fight. Ton on the other hand is courageous (or just stupid) and very humble though this isn't always seen due to his limited intelligence and vocabulary. Basically he's a kinda gentle giant.

Affiliation: Hero/Thug

Equipment: His belt is able to absorb energy (primarily gamma radiation) which was originally supposed to be used to revert Patrick back to his original form but it wasn't enough to conceal all his energy.

This particular villain won't be around for the entire Rp, he will be killed off eventually.

[Chev]

Real name: Amy Zander
Hero Name: Thorana
Powers: Super-strength, Super-endurance, basically the same powers as Thor.
Appearance:Looks like a female version of Thor except longer hair and the hair color is black instead of blonde. Her eyes are a green color.

History: It is said that after Thor was killed during the night the heroes were massacred, his hammer was left where Thor had fallen as a message to those who would try to fight the villains of the world. Over time, people came to the hammer and some began to pray to it, hoping that the heroes would return. Amy was being chased by a group of thugs and she came across the hammer. At the time, Amy was defenseless and the only thing within reach was the fabled hammer of the fallen Thor. As her hand gripped the handle of the hammer, a voice echoed through her mind.

"Whosoever holds this hammer, if she be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor."It was at this point that for the first time in years that the hammer was lifted from the ground and the thugs turned and ran. It took a few days, but eventually Amy learned to use the power of Mjolnir and months later she managed to use the full power of Mjolnir while training in secret. Now, after months of training to use the hammer and her new found super abilities that she emerged. Ready to fight.

Personality: Amy is kind and will stand up for anyone she thinks is in trouble. However, if she deems you a threat you're in trouble. She will often rush into battle if she sees someone in trouble. She stands up for her friends and will give her life for a friend if the need arises.

[Sturmgewehr]

Real name: Reed Carter
Hero Name: Helius
Powers: Solar Empowerment: Reed is able to draw energy from the sun thus increasing his strength, stamina, regeneration and durability. But those aren't the only effects. By absorbing energy from the sun Reed also becomes self sustaining, no longer requiring food or water to live and he can also slow down or even stop his aging process. The drawback of this power is that it's only useful during daytime. At night or in a dark place with no sun, Reed has to rely on just his skills.

Appearance

Reed's future outfit, which he will wear as the story develops.

History: Reed was only 4 years old when the heroes were purged from the world by the villains, 7 years later his parents were killed, leaving the 11 year old Reed alone in a dangerous world full of evil. After 2 years in which he was forced to steal in order to survive, Reed was taken in the care of the leader of a biker gang. As the years passed those bikers became like a 2nd family to Reed. Everybody was seeing him as a worthy successor to his adoptive father. However distaster struck him once again as their clubhouse was raided by a rival biker gang. Since they were caught off guard everybody died. Except for Reed. His powers saved his life. Angry and with a deep desire for vengeange Reed promised that from that day forward he will dedicate his life fighting evil and protecting the innocent and the weak from their vile grip. But if he were to do that, then he will do it his own way.
Personality: Reed is a bitter and hateful person. Although he is kind-hearted and his intentions are good, Reed dosen't hesitate to kill when necesary. He believes that death is the only punishment worthy of the world's villains. He dosen't believe in a brighter day or a better tomorow, he thinks that those days are dead and buried and that it's all about survival now. Reed is a big supporter of the "An eye for an eye" principle and applies it all the time. Reed dosen't consider himself a hero, nor does he want to be considered one. He thinks of himself as a punisher, an instrument of death directed against all that is evil.
Affiliation: Anti-Hero
Equipment:
- Smith & Wesson 686 revolver in .357 Magnum(he will carry this for starters);
- Kimber Custom II 1911 .45 ACP handgun(will partially replace the revolver later in the RP);
