Escape Prison with your Powers (Int Chk)

[Garrison]

Kingleo said
How long has the capture and detainment of these "superpowered" individuals been going on? How aware are the public of super humans, and if it's public knowledge, what is the general opinion on super max prisons for them?

Great question, that's why I keep you around lol. I obviously didn't post all the details about this but then again, I didn't think it would take off but seriously, this what I'm talking about. Ask questions and you shall receive an answer. So the detainment of (call them supes for the moment) supes has been going on for the last year, yea, that sounds good. The public isn't aware of us 100% because the government is always watching and snatches us up as soon as they realize we have powers. The only time people know about us is when something happens publicly but of course the government covers it up, so only the loons and hard core watchers of these events even see that stuff is happening. The prison, well, I can't actually let you know where it is because I want to add to the difficulty of the escape. That's only partially true, truth is I don't even have those specifics figured out but by telling you it's part of the story to have to figure it out, sounds better. I also want to take this time to say that this RP will allow cursing, however don't go over board and of course at any time, if there's is someone here who objects, we will stop immediately to respect their wishes. Until then, Fuck Yea.

[Kingleo]

Alright, that sounds good. How long have powers been a thing, then? Only for a year? Do we know what causes supes to come into being?

[Garrison]

I'd say roughly 13 months, enough time for the government to realize what was happened and decide the best option was to lock us up. As for how we came into being. I guess I didn't give this too much thought so I suppose to keep it simple and not a cliche of falling into a vat of acid, we just reached a point in humanity that evolution has occurred and for what ever reason, people started to manifest these super human abilities. With that being said, I would like some input on what she should be called other than Supes or mutants.

Another thing I just thought of, our prison outfits. They'll be closest in appearance to the classic orange two piece outfit but these are a bland white with gray trim, our prisoner number over the heart. In your appearance section, please include a short written description for how you wear yours. They don't bust our balls about walking around with our top around our waist or sleeves cut off or whatever. This gives us some diversity for appearance other than literally just gender and what our face and hair look like.

[Blazion]

Throwing my lime in the coconut to say I'm interested if there's space. Out of curiosity did you plan on picking people based on CS or just first come first serve?

[Garrison]

As of the moment it's first come first serve but perhaps if the earlier applicants that said they were interested don't post or vanish or whatever, I could PM you and bring you in.

[Blazion]

Awesome, thanks. I never seem to find interesting RPs before they fill up. I'm cursed. :P Anyway, have fun!

[Garrison]

How about PM me your CS and if it just too cool to pass up, I'll see about squeezing you in.

[PoisonLilies]

Name: Serenity Cross

Alias:

Age: 23

Appearance:
Prison Outfit: Her white and gray trimed prison jump suit is one size bigger than needed making it loose and baggy. Has a small v-cut at the neck with short-sleeves. She wears a body fitting white thermal long-sleeve shirt underneath, having the sleeves pushed up to her elbows all the time. If in her cell she likes being bare-footed but outside she wears plain white no slip gripping shoes.

Personality: She used to be a very optimistic girl. Always trusted people fallowed the rules, never shy to get to know a person. However, now Serenity is closed off from everyone. She trusts no one, she speaks little, and she keeps everything bottled up. Serenity’s moods are always between cold and angry. Even though she feels angry half the time she never lets it get the best of her. She hates people who feel sorry for themselves.

History:Serenity was born in the late winter months to John and Eva Cross. She was six pounds and eighteen inches long. As soon as she hit the age of five her parents took her to her first climb. It was to a small indoor rock climbing class. John and Eva were masters at mountain climbing, they even owned a shop for climbing equipment, and wanted their little girl to grow up with the passion for it. Serenity did not like climbing at first however she stared to feel the rush once she was nine and hit her first little mountain. After that Serenity would climb anything and everything. At the age of fifteen, after climbing Mount Everest, she did not want to have ropes tie her down when climbing anymore. This however was limited as her parents were in fear of her falling.

At the age of sixteen her parents had lost the shop as they were in so much debt over the constant mountain climbing. They had no other family to lean on about to lose their house John Cross did something out of character that no one could have predicted. Serenity was seventeen when she had the police knock on her recently foreclosed house. Her father had helped in a robbery with two other males. It seemed that her father got spooked by the sound of the bell of the door and shot a woman who walked into the bank killing her. Serenity found out that night it was her mother who her father shot.

Her father was sentence to fifty years in prison. However he had hung himself the night of the sentencing he could not brae knowing he killed his beloved wife. Serenity had nowhere to go she felt betrayed by her father. He had left her alone not even seeming to care what would happen to his precious daughter. She went to the streets to live sometimes being able to find a homeless shelter to spend a few nights in. She tried to find any work but it was impossible. She had not finished high school and she looked horrible from living in the streets. Still she never gave up. After almost two years of living off the streets she had become a great pickpocket. Her climbing skills with her small body made it easy for her to get away if she did get caught taking something.

Serenity had started to develop her powers a few months before her twenty-third birthday. She was terrified she had no one to turn to she had no idea what was happening to her. It took her a long time to get used to her power and able to control it. However after she did Serenity how had the ability to brake easily into building helping her steal things she needed.

Skills: Serenity is very good at climbing. Her parents used to take her rock climbing all the time. She loves it: climbing trees and buildings for fun. She was good at it mostly because of her small size of five feet. Serenity started climbing without rope once she was fifteen.

Power: Serenity has the ability, Watchmaker, it enables her to disassemble and remake anything mechanical or metal.

[PoisonLilies]

I know you said add the kidnapping in the history but I was hoping I could do that in a flash back on my first post.

If that is alright?

[questionmark693]

I'm kind of confused about your power....for my benefit, can you give like an example, just so I can visualize appropriately what Serenity can do?

[PoisonLilies]

Alright I kind of ripped it off of Area D manga. From the character Satoru Ida.

Pretty much from what I have read is that he just disassembles things.

Like this picture shows his power disassembling a pocket watch. . (I know I suck at explaining it the way I need to.) T.T

[questionmark693]

Ok, cool, looks pretty sweet :)
Characeter Sheet:

Name: Rilyn Naor
Alias: Copycat
Age: 23
Appearance:

Rilyn Naor

Rilyn wears his prison clothing in the style they were intended to be worn in, in addition to his glasses.

Personality: Rilyn is a slow to anger person, though when his anger is roused, he can completely lose control. In general though, he has a tendency to be extremely contemplative, letting his thoughts wander, oftentimes giving the impression to others that he doesn't care about what is happening around him. In truth though, he is paying attention and he notes everything he sees for later reference, only in part to augment his power.

History: Rilyn grew up as an average kid in the U.S., playing video games, enjoying time with his friends, graduating from high school, and getting a job in fast food, eventually becoming a part-time manager. During high school, he developed a passion for music, and spent nearly all of his time playing various instruments, focusing on mostly the piano, guitar, and the violin. After graduation, he spent about a year working his dead end job before going to college.
Right before he graduated from college (majoring in musical performance), he was watching somebody play a song on the piano that he had eventually hoped to learn how to play. Five minutes later, he played that same song almost perfectly-making only the exact same mistake that had been made by the classmate he had seen play it moments ago.
Over the next few weeks, he experimented with this phenomenon, trying to learn various songs on various instruments. He found that after watching somebody play a song on an instrument, he could play it exactly as they had, and, after some experimentation, he was able to modify the way he played it more to his liking, not just a perfect copycat.
However, a few weeks later, he was no longer able to recreate the effect. After graduation, he found himself with more free time, and spent the next few months experimenting even more with his power. Not only could he recreate somebody playing a song, but any physical activity. He would watch a pro fighter, and become a pro fighter of that same style of fighting. He could watch a rock climber and gain their technical skill. Unlike music however, he was only able to maintain the skill for a couple days at best, but both experienced a steady decline over the period of time that he was able to use them.
It was at this point that he was kidnapped, and taken to prison, though he does not remember the details, having been apparently drugged for his capture.

Skills: Musical performance, and of course, his power.

Power: Adoptive Muscle Memory. He is able to copy the physical skill of anybody he watched using that skill, for a small period of time. If he had any skill in it to begin with, he maintains the skill for a longer period of time.

Hey

Sorry I wasn't active during the times you were all posting. That's the time when I am asleep ( about 4 am).

Anyway, I will do mine here

Name: Xerox Sync

Alias: The Psyche

Age: 21 (Why is everyone 23? lol)

Appearance:
(I do not own this image)
Xerox has ripped off the sleeves of his uniform to make it into a singlet. He has left the pants unaltered.

Personality:A confident leader who never loses his composure.
Tries to keep morality and optimism amongst his peers. He would rather not use his ability, however, commonly, to settle disputes, he would read their minds and settle the dispute with words.

History: Xerox was part of an orphanage. He lived happily among his 15 'siblings'. He was the third eldest, and in the orphanage, their elder sister Yuki lead them. Although it was an orphanage, it was out in the country, with lots of land, so the children learned to farm and cultivate. Living earnestly amongst themselves. This orphanage was simply a place of abandonment, the land was abandoned, the children, even the orphanage itself. But these children did not care about such things.

Although they were lead by Yuki, Yuki often discussed the plans with Xerox, since he had devised plans on how to expand the land, the time frame it would take, the ways it can grow into a community. Their life was simple, and honest. However, one day, they were attacked, by wolves. Over the 17 years Xerox had lived, and 22 for Yuki, they had never known wolves lived in the area. Even when they had left the orphanage on occasion to scout the area, and also check on any urban developments in the area, there were no signs of anything entering their area, excluding some people who would abandon their children. Xerox thought quickly, and devised a plan which involved abandoning the orphanage, and making a new home.

However, there were some who disagreed, a few of the younger children and the second eldest child, their brother Justin. Yuki agreed with the plan, first they needed to survive, and then they can build a new home. This caused an argument, one that was fatal to their situation. Justin sought to protect their home, disrupting the plan entirely, running into the pack of wolves with a knife in hand. Xerox, ordered the 4th eldest, Sarah, to run according to Xerox's map of the area and to reach a cave which he and Yuki had set up to be a safe place and lead the other children. Sarah nodded and led them. Yuki and Xerox both went to try to stop Justin. He was a big, and strong man. But there was no hope against the number of wolves in front of him. As Justin took down one wolf, two wolves, three wolves, there came a wolf from behind him, ready to bite his head off from the neck. Then, Yuki jumped in to save him. Justin and Xerox both bewildered, Justin killed the wolf that had bitten Yuki. Xerox ordered Justin, "Quickly, we need to run now, or she will die. Bring her to the cave". With tears on his face, Justin finally agreed. As Justin ran, Xerox took the knife, and attempted to stall the wolves for time. He wasn't very adapted for fighting wolves, he could take down another person, since he knew all the vital points, but this was different. He had little time to spare, since himself and Yuki were the only ones with medical knowledge. He decided, he needed to take a do or die chance.

He ran into the pack of wolves. Why? He wanted to reach one of the trees behind them. One that had some rocks he could use to stone the wolves, and a swinging rope to get him away. The knife served him as a means to deflect the wolves, ever so slightly. The blade, barely, guiding the wolves from their mouths, their trajectory reaching behind him. As he reached the tree, he climbed, as fast as he could. Xerox was safe. After stoning some of the wolves that decided they would go after Justin and Yuki, he swung over from tree to tree to reach the cave. As he arrived, he could hear Yuki, "Where is Xerox?".

Yuki was lying down, bleeding profusely from her shoulder and neck. Justin attempted to apply pressure, but the wound was fatal, and was close to her wind pipe. There was nothing that could be done. Everyone was crying.

"I am right here Yuki," Xerox cried.
"Everyone, I loved you all. Please continue to live. Xerox, please make the village we dreamed of. Lead our brothers and sisters. I know you can do it." Yuki softly spoke
"We love you too, please don't leave us" all the children cried.
"Xerox, I leave things to you. I love ..." Yuki's last breath called out.
They all cried, They could not do a thing, Xerox cried in his heart, "I loved you Yuki"

A couple of years had passed since that day, and they were living happily in the new house they built. Xerox took many precautions in laying down precautionary traps and bells for the new house for protection. They had since gained 3 new siblings. One day, Xerox's ability manifested. He could hear their thoughts, he was happy, they were happy. Except for Justin, he blamed himself for everything. Xerox did not yet fully understand his ability was not simply mind reading. Xerox accidentally wiped Justin of his memories of Yuki. Bewildered, Xerox also undid the wipe. When he lead his siblings, some seemed to stop thinking. Xerox realised, he could control, and manipulate the mind in any sort of manner. Frightened he would harm his family, he left. He wiped their memories of himself and gave Justin knowledge in planning and thinking. He also gave Sarah some of this knowledge. He was sure this was enough.

During his next year of life before imprisonment, he wondered around, helping people out of comatose and vegetable states. This lead to people believing in a mysterious healer, but got himself on the list for the new species of Homo Evoludus. Now imprisoned, he has nights where he still remembers Yuki.

Skills: - Tactician, creating plans for any situation
- Artist, drawing images to the detail (Good for map layout, architectural designs, and faces of important people in facility)
- Tracking

Power: Mental Take Over. A variation of telepathy/mind reading, where he can also control the mind and alter it in any way he likes. Making new personalities, new memories, removal of old ones, changing the way the thought process needs to work to move their body as well as even leaving nothing there, making the person a vegetable that is free to control whenever he pleases.

Suggestion for name, if you are going with a evolutionary theme, then maybe a couple of suggestions.
The Evolved
Next Generation
A species name like Homo Evoludus and we are referred to as a Species

[DaDrummer676]

I am making my CS. Ninja don't you think Xerox is a little OP. There is no way to counter his mind control. Garrison you should add a Weakness section to the CS skeleton.

[Little_ninja]

Well, I will edit if the need arises
Of course it is limited when it comes to number of people he can control, it is not like people cannot resist it, it is just more so, people are less aware of it.
Also, I thought, using his personality, it can counter-balance it, the ability is op, but the person will not use it in an op way. Something like that.
Well I will wait for what Garrison says.
And also, from what I understand, it is against NPCs, for one, and two, the bracelets have only worn down, they are not completely free, so the ability would be restricted to a certain extent still. For example, only mind reading and controlling one person, or can alter memories but not control anyone at first and then it develops more into a control X people, or change one guard into an ally by changing their mind completely, but temporary effects.

[DaDrummer676]

Fair enough, I guess.

[PoisonLilies]

@ Little_Ninja: I am not to sure why everyone else picked 23 but I did because that is my age so I was like 'Eh why not'.
Also Xerox was running for state governor at the age of 21?

[DaDrummer676]

Name: Cyrus Bane

Alias: Bane

Age: 22

Appearance:

Personality: Cyrus is a quiet and calculating young adult. He is very intelligent and observant. Bane is a very calm kind of person, rarely raising his voice or becoming angry. Surprisingly, he fights as a last resort, and even then he may be a bit reluctant. Sure, he learned how to box as a kid, but that was just his hobby. Cyrus is a plan-maker, and his tactics and strategies rarely show flaws. Bane doesn't talk much, but when he does he makes sure that what he says is relevant. He has a hard exterior, strong enough to hide his true personality. He internalizes his feelings, and sometimes has a hard time expressing them. Cyrus is a really nice guy at heart, but I mean, no one is perfect right?

Biography: Cyrus Bane was born into a poor family who could barely afford to eat. Cyrus's mom contracted a deadly illness. This made his family poorer, because of the lack of another paycheck, and the need to pay for medication. Bane suffered greatly, practically starving because of his high metabolism. He never got enough food. His social life was a disaster. He had to deal with his personality issues and physical issues. Nobody wanted to be his friend because he practically looked like a skeleton. Cyrus could barely talk to people, let alone date women. Bane's love life was a disaster, he didn't have the looks nor personality to gain the attention of any girls he was attracted to. The only thing he excelled in was academics, he was a brilliant student. Unfortunately, soon his grades began to drop, much like his self-esteem. Then finally, he snapped. Bane was sick of being hungry, sick of being ignored, sick of everything.

Cyrus joined a gang soon after his epiphany. Soon he was on the fast track to becoming a drunk, addict, and fugitive. I forgot to mention that at that time Bane had realized that he wasn't human, and that he possessed an amazing power. Cyrus had been using his ability to steal, mostly food, but other luxuries. His father became suspicious of him, wondering where he was getting all his money from. He was arrested partly because he was a Supe, and partly because of his crime.

Cyrus was known around town as the most dangerous guy around, so most people were wary of him. To be honest, he was framed, and the police were onto him instantly. He saw that it was pointless to fight, it would just lead him into more trouble. But, I digress. So one day, Cyrus was casually walking down the street, around midnight. This wasn't uncommon for him, patrolling his territory. Up ahead he heard a commotion, and then two gunshots. Bane ran towards the sound, and got there just in time to see a dead body drop to the ground. A bullet had lodged itself in the poor man's skull and stomach. The attacker was no where to be seen. If only Cyrus hadn't taken the time to properly close the man's eyes, seeing as he had died with them wide open. Someone nearby had heard the shots, and called the police. They were on him in seconds. To them all the evidence was clear. A Supe had killed a man, the gun was even nearby. He was taken away immediately. Cyrus thrived in this prison though. He became stronger physically, without the help of his powers, and basically spent all his time studying. There was one guard who was kind enough to lend Bane some books whenever he got some, Cyrus never complained. Confidence was another thing that Cyrus gained. He's not cocky or big-headed, just sure of his abilities and weaknesses.

Skills: Cyrus is skilled with computers and hacking, his intelligence is off the charts, and he can basically become a tank. He also boxed as a teenager.

Uniform: Cyrus doesn't wear the top of his jumpsuit, he ties it around his waist and goes shirtless. He also cut off parts of the pants to make them into shorts. He has scribbled writing on his suit, just thoughts and ideas that he jotted down. (He also writes on the walls of his cell.)

Power: Cyrus' body creates a source of energy from his own cells. They act much like ATP except the energy that they create is destructive. Just like ATP, his cells, needs to consume nutrients in order to create this energy which he calls "Surge." He can use Surge in two ways. He can enhance his physical attributes, and he can also expel Surge from his body with concussive and destructive force. He has to be able to eat in order for his power to work. When he enhanced his physical attributes he grows to be 8 feet tall, 20 inches taller than he normally is, and he becomes insanely muscular. When he blasts Surge, it is showed as red energy. Sometimes Surge can be concentrated into a beam that is very destructive and sometimes it can be manifested as an orb of sorts that explodes on impact. Surge is very unstable when outside of Curus' body, this is why it is so destructive and volatile. When he "Surges Up," not only does his muscles become insanely strong, he becomes fast, agile, and his skin also becomes dense like steel. He can not blast Surge in this form though, he can only do that once he has Surged Down.

[questionmark693]

Honestly, I picked 23 as a random number between 20 and 25 with a d6, I didn't even realize it was your age, sorry :/ also, I apologize mine is a wall of text, I couldn't figure out how to make a line break.

[Little_ninja]

@PoisonLillies:
Well, I just wanted to say that I noticed everyone was 23 was all
But the part about state governor at 21 ... I didn't think about that part enough .... Mind letting it slide? Well, if I had to have a reason, he was of unknown background. No birth certificate, so he got one made and lied about the age or something like that.
