Name: Jonathan Jones Junior
Gender: Male
Age: 51
Alias: Eye
Height: 5 7
Weight: 140 lb
Hair Color: Grey
Eye Color: Brown
Skin Tone: Caucasian
Body Type: Mesomorph - Average
Notable Features: A constant smile seemingly etched onto his face, most people adore him for this constant smile, very smooth, yet seemingly binary movement, been marked non-human by some.
Personality: John is a famous TV presenter, known as ‘Eye’ due to the uncanny ability for his show to dig things up on those rich and famous. It has been stated that he has files on all those deemed ‘important’. He is kind to all when addressing them directly, but can be seen talking dirt behind their backs, or on national television. His constant smile disguises a gleeful enjoyment of destroying others and their livelihood. He has extreme respect for those in authority, unless they have something bad on their file, then they will be persecuted.
Strengths: His power of speech is said to be uncanny, almost supernatural. He can cause riots with a one-minute rant on the government, or even calm the threat of civil war with one seemingly unrelated news story. He knows how to intimidate people, and can cause utter fear or embarrassment in many who have crossed him.
Weaknesses: Due to his older age, he is not physically strong, just average, and his job does not aid this either. He cannot stand people going against him, and beating him, as he has an extreme competitive nature, it is how he got to his position of power after all.
Fears: Losing power, being humiliated, lack of attention.
-Influence: 3 – It is stated that John almost controls the area more than anyone, and can access all areas of the city.
-Wealth: 2 – Even though he earns millions from his job, he tends to spend it very quickly.
-Hideout: 3 – He owns a zeppelin which is where he also broadcasts his news shows from, it rarely lands, as he has a fully functioning house within the zeppelin. (See Image)
-Psychoprofiling: 2 – It is unsure whether this is supernatural or just created through training, but John can pretty much determine anyone’s personality, or whether they have any secrets to reveal.
-Access: 3 – John literally can get anywhere in the city, and can obtain any information he desires.
-Technology: 1 – John is pretty handy with technology, as he sometimes repairs his zeppelin if it malfunctions himself, and he records and broadcasts his news show all by his own doing.
-Fame: 1 – John would most probably be noticed by anyone if he were to grace the streets of the city with his presence.
Job: Broadcaster/Fearmonger (Unofficial)
Home: Zeppelin (Named: Body of the Eye)
Wealth/Lifestyle: Lives in luxury, with no-one, extremely wealthy, yet doesn’t maintain his wealth for long due to his impulsive spending habits.
Clothing Style: Suits, all the time, prefers a dark grey but can be seen with a traditional black, rarely burgundy.
Friends/Relationships: TBD
Rivalries: TBD
Public/Professional Goals: To inform and warn the people of the Unnamed City.
History: A lot of John’s history is not available, evidently to his doing, as it reveals some shocking stuff he committed when younger that no one should find out about. (Will be role-played)
Uniform:
Alignment: Lawful Evil
Combat Method: Fists, Knives, Telekinesis, Hench Men
Hideout:
Mode of Transportation:
Allies/Relationships:
Nemesis:
Motivations/Goals:
Supplies/Inventory:
I don’t think a secret identity really applies to him, but if he has to have one, I can create it.
Paradigm Stone Appearance: A golden signet ring embedded with an emerald. The signet is in the shape of an eagle in front of an eye.
Personal Appearance Changes: His eyes go unnaturally large and cloud over, yet it can be seen that underneath they have become bloodshot. His skin turns gains a green hue similar to that of the emerald on the ring. He also ages dramatically in appearance, looking around 200, somehow.
Power/Ability Progression: His words now have direct influence on people, and he can issue any command and they will follow, this can even occur through image or voice transmission. He is also completely telepathic, and can read minds.
Power-Drunk Goals: To destroy the city through it’s own people, and rebuild it in his image, how he wants it.
Weakness: He is blind to those that he is killing, and does not realise that killing all will make rebuilding the city impossible. He is also completely confined to his zeppelin, if he leaves, then the ring begins to burn through his finger. Of course, he could sacrifice his fingers one by one if he needed to be on the ground. The burning causes intense pain and takes around 10 minutes to get through one finger, but even seconds will leave permanent damage.
Withdraw Symptoms: Sweating, nausea, agoraphobia, muttering to himself, violent fits.
Here he is, I thought he could form some interesting rivalries with a lot of the characters, I didn't give him a secret identity, cause I didn't deem it necessary for him, but I can create one if I need to. I realise we have a lot of villains, so I think I shall also work on a more heroic character.

'The Third' character, I really liked writing this one and beetle seems to like it quite a bit as well.
Basic Info
Name: Michael Regel
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Alias: Pheonix
Stats
[
Rough Sketch of Pheonix's Back
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 148 lbs
Hair Color: Dyed Red, naturally dark brown.
Eye Color: Dark Blue
Skin Tone: Tan from sun exposure, naturally pale.
Body Type: Athletic
Notable Features: Pheonix's back has an enormous pheonix tattooed in tribal style on his back, which spreads its wings and tendrils of flames out across almost his entire body. The only thing not covered in tribal flames are his feet, face, and scalp. His arms, legs, torso, back, and necks are tattooed with said flames or pheonix. Anyone who says tribal flames are lame is often punched in the face by Pheonix.
Psychological Profile
Personality: With a bit of an anarchist streak in him, Michael values the ability to do damn well anything he wants above all. Freedom is what has always mattered most to him, even before he gained superpowers. Consequently, he's not big on taking orders or following rules. In any case, he enjoys cracking jokes, often inappropriate or rude ones, and not giving one damn who cares. Because he'll cut you if you care. That's not to say he's a bad guy, he just has own goals in mind; women, money, and power.
Strengths: Streetsmart, agile, and a hell of a fighter, Michael was a gangster long before he was a Super, and not one of those pansy-ass Mob-style gangsters, a real gangster living on the streets that has given him illicit connections. A life of poverty and stealing has taught him out to get in and out very quietly as well as how to pickpocket without the victim having a clue what happened until they're wondering where their keys are hours later.
Weaknesses: Temperamental and occasionally a little bipolar if you don't laugh at his jokes. Laugh at his jokes. A bit of a chauvinist and womanizer. Okay, a major womanizer.
Fears: Death, drug addiction, (surprisingly) rejection by women, failing to burn a path out of poverty.
Power Points
Firebending: 3
A great asset to him, and the superpower given to him by the meteor (at least that's what Michael thinks), Michael is an enormously talented firebender. Unlimited by the need for source material, Michael can mentally ignite common air to become his weapon, one which doesn't seem to burn its master. While he is still developing, the man has managed to focus his mind enough to condense his will into a blade of superheated plasma that he can use to cut through solid steel (albeit, slowly), and combine searing hot flames with his strikes.
Melee: 3
Almost inexplicably, this street gangster is a fantastic swordsman. It helps that he has access to superheated blades of plasma formed by his freaking mind, but even without them, he's pretty damn skilled. Years of watching videos on swordsmanship and spending time on swordsmanship classes haven't hurt either. Ultimately, skill, plasma blades, and his reflexes have all combined to make him a formidable opponent, one that can melt bullets in mid-air and cut his way through a steel door (if slowly).
Honed Reflexes: 2
Years spent living on edge, not wondering if the next and last sound he heard would be a gunshot, combined with constant fighting, as taught Michael to absolutely always be on alert. Years of crack cocaine have somehow managed to further enhance his reflexes, especially during combat as his experience has taught him to predict his enemy's moves whenever possible.
Brawl: 2
MMA training from his brother's coworkers and life experience beating the shit out of other gangsters has taught him how to throw one hell of a searing hot punch. Literally.
Stealth: 2
When a brother has to steal to survive, and steal without getting caught, for years, a brother gets used to and damn good at it. Michael can pickpocket ridiculously well and often figures a way past most obstacles, quietly when possible. This knack for stealth has gotten him out of quite a few tight spots.
Endurance: 1
Michael can take quite the punch but he isn't like his brother in that he can't walk away from being thrown into a building without a scratch. Consequently, he tends to focus on not getting hit and simply outmanuevering his enemy.
Speed: 1
Years of running from the police starting at an early age have conditioned Michael for both sprinting and endurance running, and his ability to run seems to only have increased since the meteor came.
Hideout: 1
Michael chills with Finn in these creepy old tunnels that the man honestly doesn't like very well. He swears there are ghosts of dead tunnelworkers in there.
Wealth: 0
Crime didn't exactly pay Michael well, and neither did prison. Needless to say, he's a very poor, broke bastard.
Public Identity
Job: Unemployed (Former Street Gangster and Drug Dealer)
Home: Recently released from prison, was living on the streets until he joined his brother.
Wealth/Lifestyle: Broke as all hell. Turns out crime generally doesn't pay well and spending a few years in prison doesn't help with savings.
Clothing Style: The same clothing he went to prison in; worn-out, torn blue jeans, with a big black t-shirt with a red stylized 'A' on it for anarchy.
Friends/Relationships: Some old gang buddies are doubtless still around here somewhere, and at least he has his uh... broke... homeless... brother to rely on.
Rivalries: Quietly, he's always envied his older brother, but he keeps that to himself, especially now that his brother is also a Super.
Public/Professional Goals: Money, women, and power. Preferably in that order.
History: Michael spent his life living in poverty, trying to scrape by with his family, until he turned to the gang life for a true sense of family. He became a bit of a notorious gang member and drug dealer, killing a number of rival gangsters in the process. In the meantime, his brother tatted him up and gave him his cherished pheonix. Eventually though, what went around came around, and he was busted for possession and sent off for a few years to the state prison. Interestingly, he was released the same day the meteor came, and sought out his brother for a place to stay. He found him, as destitute as himself unfortunately, but discovered to his surprise they both apparently possessed superpowers. Now, he seeks to rise alongside Finn like a Pheonix from the ashes.
Secret Identity
Uniform: A black gui, belt, gloves, and tennis shoes, combined with a black hoodie and ski mask, all of course stolen from the nearby Wal-Mart. Man, they really do have everything.
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Combat Method: Using a combination of experience in fights, MMA training, and a life-long fascination with samurai, ninjas, and swordsmanship, Michael tends to meld his firebending with his martial arts, either incorporating searing hot flames with his strikes, or focusing them into superheated plasma blades. He keeps a fall-back katana on his back in case he starts to become tired.
Hideout: A creepy ass series of tunnels his brother discovered. He doesn't personally approve.
Mode of Transportation: Sprinting, walking, stealing a ride. Sadly he hasn't been able to figure out a way to fly like his brother, though he has a few ideas as to how Finn might be able to move him around.
Allies/Relationships: Pulse (his brother)
Nemesis: None
Motivations/Goals: Women, money, and power.
Supplies/Inventory:
-The stolen 'ninja' gear he wears.
-A stolen katana he's tested on a few animals to prove it works as a back-up.
-Not much else honestly.
Paradigm Stone
Paradigm Stone Appearance: The Stone itself turns into a competely black katana.
Personal Appearance Changes: Michael becomes covered in superheated plasma shaped into samurai armor, with only the plasma armor visible.
Power/Ability Progression: His firebending abilities grow enormously, becoming both one of his weapons and his armor. The Paradigm Stone itself becomes his sword, capable of slicing through anything as if it were made of paper. Michael will continue to forge another plasma sword for his off-hand if he needs it, or will use his off-hand to shoot enormous white-hot flames. Generally he just sets fire to the entire area around him, with his anarchist traits coming out in full force, potentially resulting in an entire burning city.
Power-Drunk Goals: To rule the city and cut down his brother, the man who has always stood above him, despite being shorter than him.
Weakness: Michael remains vulnerable to mental, psychic, and other forms of indirect manipulation, but his incredible endurance, strength, and 'God-Sword' make him an incredibly difficult Super to stop, especially considering he will have an iron grip on the Sword.
Withdrawal Symptoms:An intense feeling of burning alive from the inside cripples Michael, a pain unlike any other. He is still rather dangerous, having little control over his powers during this time, only his anger and pain will still fuel them, causing him to lash out with them in random directions or at anyone nearby in an attempt to 'get the fire out'.

Sure, Although I might take a short halt on new players after that. Current players are still welcome to have more than one character, I just don't want to flood the world before we start.
As for Bakker and JJ Junior ;) they're both accepted! Bakker is amazingly similar to my mob lady (which I promise will be up soon!) so they might work well as luke-warm business partners in some fields.
Still replying to everyone's PM's! Not ignoring you, just busy ^_^
Edit: Sorry, do you have Bakker's Alignment?

True neutral. And yeah, the whole "40% controlling stake" thing is so that Bakker has a decent say in what to do with the rock, and can obviously have tensions with the other board-members.
Frozen- Bakker would probably be somewhat dismissive of Gabe, what with him being a) young and b) reliant on someone else's work for his money. At least, without any other good reason to pay him attention. He'd be civil though, and they'd definitely have moved in the same circles.
EDIT: sorry, just to confirm... there is more than one stone, right? Like, as the meteor was landing, it broke up in the atmosphere and people grabbed fragments? Or is the rock sitting in the lab the only one? My impression was that that was the main body of the meteorite, not the lump sum of all the paradigm stone there is.

Name: Eudora Carver
Gender: Female
Age: 65
Alias: The Godmother
Height: 5'9''
Weight: 145
Hair Color: Dirty Blonde
Eye Color: Light Brown
Skin Tone: Tan, although wrinkled.
Body Type: For being later in her years, she's surprisingly athletic as well as shapely.
Notable Features: None, just magazine and newspaper comments about her surprising beauty considering her age.
Personality: To the city itself, Eudora Carver is the most pleasant and charitable woman to grace its streets. Her donations are directly responsible for yearly parades, the creation of multiple hospitals and schools and even random bonuses to her thousands of employees. Beloved by most of the citizens, there are a few who whisper about corporate side projects and her weapons ending up in the hands of gang members. Outside of the public eye, Eudora is a witty, calculative and cunning woman that will smile and joke coyly as she slides the blade into your back.
Strengths: Extremely strong willed and sharp as a tack, which she used to her advantage to rise the corporate ladder as a woman in an age where it was unheard of. Capable of running for extended periods of time.
Weaknesses: Mental and physical fatigue, unwillingness to back down and doctors have recently diagnosed her with a weakening heart.
Fears: An increase in her waning beauty, which used to be the talk of the town. Like most of the super wealthy, fading out of the public eye, which she has spent decades cultivating. Death itself is her daily tormentor.
Wealth: 3
-Billionaire and investor in multiple business across the city. The Carver fortune began with weapons creation, but quickly branched off into robotics during the first developing stages. She currently has millions tied up in research and development with genetics, advanced weapons, tech development, clean energy and of course remaining the forefront of robotics engineering.
Hideout: 3
-Carver Industries has a recent rival in the skyline with the newest construction of The Tower, which is the city's current tallest building. The top floor of the tower is one of the city's most secure locations; outfitted with artificial intelligence monitoring, compartmentalized hallways (that can be sealed individually), drone surveillance (both indoor and outdoor) as well as armed guards supplied with the most recent weaponry. The Conference Hall is the last place one would want to be, as it's basically Eudora's throne room packed with weaponry behind every wall panel.
Manipulation: 3
-Most of the city's major departments has her hand dipped in it. The police pension fund is directly matched by Carver Industries, landing almost every Chief and major detective in her pocket. Outside of her manipulation in the city municipalities, her business has thousands of employees living in the city. Within those employees, she has several hundred under-the-table individuals with a wide range of special skills. Assassins, spies, scientists, all paid well enough to buy their silence and allegiance.
Transportation: 2
-Her iconic bullet proof limousine, which the citizens of the city link together as clearly as the Pope Mobile and, well , The Pope.
Science: 2
-It's impossible to become a behemoth in the technology world without an understanding in the field. Eudora isn't as gifted as some under her payroll, but she knows more than enough to both comprehend and create magnificent pieces of technology.
Political/Social Fame: 2
-Loved by the city and known fondly as 'The Fairy Godmother' or simply, 'Godmother'.
Body Guard: This Could Be You!
-This isn't a stat, but Eudora is currently in the market for a body guard that can be paid extremely well.
Job: Investor, Business Tycoon and Black Market Leader
Home: The penthouse suite of a downtown tower owned by one of Carver's various real estate corporations.
Wealth/Lifestyle: Designer clothing, gold plated silverware and a team of personal attendants are the base necessities in life.
Clothing Style: Designer dresses and business outfits that range in the thousands of dollars for any gala or meeting. Eudora has a classic sense of style that demands an air of respect when she walks into a room.
Friends/Relationships: TBD
-Widow
-A luke-warm business relationship with Bakker and The Tower
Rivalries: TBD
Public/Professional Goals: The public goal of Carver Industries is to advance the world's knowledge in robotics and aid in the betterment of tomorrow. Because of that, countless public projects have come about- the outfitting of local schools with brand new computers, adding security guard robots to the local prison and making headway in solar and wind power for the city as a whole.
History: Born in the deep south during an age of technological beginnings, Eudora was a brilliant young girl from the start. Winning every science fair she entered, it was quickly apparent to her parents that she was gifted beyond her years, who were half wits and unable to help in any way.
Accepted by an elite boarding school in the city, Eudora spent her teens learning to become an entirely different young lady. Poised, refined and holding on to just a bit of her southern accent, she quickly caught the eye of a wealthy tycoon. After a short courtship, they married and almost immediately, he died of mysterious circumstances. Most have forgotten about it, but at the time there were whispers of foul play.
In the years since then, Eudora has multiplied her money more than she could have ever imagined. With charities and public funds, the public eye is diverted from her more nefarious ventures and mob-like control of the city's criminal world. Guns for respect were the initial bargain; it's developed into a deep connection with the Black Market as its lead contributor.
Uniform: Absolutely no difference in appearance, other than a funeral shawl that covers her face and elbow length gloves.
Alignment: Neutral Evil
Combat Method: No real form of combat other than a slap across the face to real drive a point home. Her hench men and robot tend to do all the heavy work for her. She always has a team of a half dozen highly trained men trailing her just out of view at all times. Eudora enjoys the sense of security but prefers not needing to think about them.
Hideout: Equipped with
Mode of Transportation: Her bullet-proof limousine, including automated aiming machine guns retractable from the hood, reinforced framework to barrel through walls, flash-grenade quality headlight defenses. There are a few more tricks and the car is a few steps below a military vehicle, but it's more than enough to get her across the city.
Allies/Relationships: TBD
Nemesis: TBD
Motivations/Goals: To have the entire city in her debt. Already well on her way, the secret motive that almost every mad scientist in town knows is that she would do anything to be young again. There is a standing reward set out to the city that will make anyone obscenely wealthy if they're able to assist her.
Supplies/Inventory: With her kind of money, supplies are unlimited.
Paradigm Stone Appearance: It becomes an elegant opalescent necklace. It crackles with energy and will explode with a psionic force if there is an attempt to be removed.
Personal Appearance Changes: Eudora regresses forty years in age and physical form, albeit far stronger than she ever was.
Power/Ability Progression: Stemming from no abilities at all, the stone grants her one wish- immortality.
Power-Drunk Goals: Astoundingly similar to her normal, every day goals. She has far greater clarity in her actions and almost precognitive in her ability to think ahead of others.
Weakness: Still not entirely infallible in a hand-to-hand confrontation against multiple supers or the like.
Withdraw Symptoms: Schizophrenic-like delusions with extremely manic behavior. She speaks to no one in particular and the universe as a whole at the same time. Basically, she goes batty.

At this point, currently there is only one stone that can change its shape into any object. It can't physically be split or made into more than one and will change according to who was the last to touch it.
I was PM'd asking if the supers got their powers because they were hit by the stone, but no: The Paradigm Stone is creating a crazy kind of radiation throughout the city that's creating super powers, allowing scientists to break some laws of physics with their experiments and making magic possible.
I made only one stone, that way there's not three or four crazy powerful characters running around and the other half without. Basically the Paradigm Stone can create a story arc with someone finding it or obtaining it before it gets lost or locked away again.
Edit: Despite the title of the game, I want the game to evolve into a push and pull between our characters and their lives in the city, not just 'who has the stone oh my gawd'.

Well, I'm hella interested! I'll try and join, with a rather Deadpool-esque character, only weaker
I love weak and badass characters, especially in superhero RP's, but few ever interest me. This one is an exception!

Gender: Male
Age: 17 in appearance. 53 in reality
Alias: Nightfall
-Stats-
Height: 5'10
Weight: 190
Hair Color: Light Grey
Eye Color: Smokey Grey
Skin Tone: Pale
Body Type: Lean/Barely above skinny
Notable Features: Chilling to the touch. After his return from the afterlife, he awoke with a black line across the bridge of his nose and his eyelids. At the corners of his eyes the line breaks into 15 erratic lines all meeting at the back of his skull, from two inchs above and below his ear. Most of the time he wears his shaggy hair down to hide his ears and you'll rarely see him without one of his pairs of knockoff Ray-Bans.
-Psychological Profile-
Personality:Slightly insanely, humorous, most people tend to enjoy his company because of the outrageous outburst he is known for. Hes know for his stark honesty and loyalty to whats truly right, he prides himself on not being a backstabber like the rest of the world. Hes kind hearted and to trusting at times, though he almost never goes into a situation without knowing something about it.
Strengths: Hes not all the strong when it comes to lifting object but what he lacks in strength his ability makes up for in speed. His abilities are rather strong if he ever figures out how to truely use them in their entirety. His biggest strength would seem to be his Shadow technique though his Smoke style comes in a strong second. Hes no genius but hes been known for his mind games and trickery.
Weaknesses: Hes rather weak in terms of strength. His mental state sometimes throws him into a state of limbo that can seem like years yet may only be a matter of hours, seemingly at some of the worst times. He dosent have full control of his Shadow ability and it tends to be unstble and backfire on him. Any talk of his past seems to send him over the rail, hes open to telling people he trust his story but an outsider knowing anything of his previous life would drive him mad.
Fears: He fears his immortality, and he is deathly afraid of scientist and is very weary of trusting them for fear they would try to use him, scientists tend to ask to many questions for his taste.

History: Jacob was born to wealthy parents, one night he wandered out in the dark at his parents cottage following a beautiful figure into the forests. As he followed her she slowly gew fainter and fainter, when he figured she was lost and just a product of his imagination. When he turned back he saw smoke over the hills near where his fathers cottage was, he ran back to find the cabin burnin and his younger brother and mother screaming inside. He then plunged into the fire in an attempt to save his family. As he ran through the cottage the flames burned his arms and legs. When he finally rounded the corner to find his brother and mothers already burning corpses, he realized to late that it was hopeless and as the flames devoured him he looked up and was hit in the face by a falling beam.
For years he floated in a limbo wandering through the nothingness of being bound to this world, alone. Then one day he woke up in a feild, naked fading in and out of reality. Controling his Shadow ability was his biggest difficulty in the beggining. He often hears the voice of the demon Barbatos and he speculates the only reason he has power is because of her influence on his life.
-Secret Identity-
Uniform:All grey robes
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Combat Method: Small daggers, smoke transformation,
Hench Men: 1 imp named Biff nearly always buy his side somewhere learking in the shadows or hiding in plane sight, hes not all that reliable and dosent have any loyalty to Jacob but more to Barbatos and only really seems to show any power in times of extreme crisis when Jacob is stuck in limbo.

Weakness: Fire, burning him might actually terrify him because he cant use his smoke in the same way because it takes much longer to figure out how to move the glove with him.

Sorry, but as of right now, there are some problems with your application.
-My very first rule in the original post is that this is an Advanced game with writing standards. I think you need to revise your grammar and there aren't any apostrophes at all.
-Everyone's abilities manifested within the past week, so I'm sorry, but there's no way he can be fifty and look seventeen.
-Even if he was immortal/ageless, you have no points set for it.
-The same applies for your minion. There are no points allotted for it. He would need to have two to three points for a creature from another dimension.
-Remember, if there are no points set in a skill or advantage, he's basically an average joe.
-A lot of our characters are chaotic neutral so far, so im more willing to accept people who are more or less good or evil.
-I would prefer a more in depth explanation on his powers. Are the shadows intangible? Are they ineffective in daylight? What kind of smoke transformation? It's not designated as teleportation, so does he form into a cloud that floats on the wind?
I dont really want ambiguous profiles, because it leaves room for godly characters

I'm sorry I didn't mean to come off as rude. I'm usually typing on my phone and was trying to get as much information across as possible. I don't mean to offend but you're more than welcome to revise.
As for everyone else: I'll have the IC up tomorrow! I got most of your PM's replied to, but if I haven't yet, then stick with me.
Maybe we can all get to know one another!

YAAAAAAAAAAY!
I think I may need a character who can actually directly interact with the others, not just be flying high up in the sky. Is it alright if I rustle up another CS?
