**Full Name**: Unknown **Alias**: Akaoni **Age**: Late 60s, presumably. **Affiliation**: None ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **Description**: He stands at 6'4 and weighs approximately around 140 pounds, rightfully classified as underweight. He has stitches in every part of his body, while his eyes are a scarlet red. A defining trait of him is also his baldness, but what really stands out is his red demon mask. Additional traits that contribute to his scary appearance are the lack of eyelids and the lack of lips, replaced by bloody outlines. His ears are also not properly formed. Instead, there's a twisted hole that serves as a replacement. He still can hear good though. Last but not least, the left part of his head is actually nothing but a jelly substance that barely prevents his brain from falling on the ground. As for his attire, his rotten flesh is covered on nothing but a customized piece of clothing that resembles that of a Tibetian monk, but is more combat-ready and employs dark brown colors instead of the usual yellow-orange mix. It's also made of leather. [Akaoni masked](http://th06.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2013/132/9/9/dmc__drekavac_by_xdemon_girlx-d651ppw.jpg) [Akaoni unmasked] (http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/036/e/7/man_with_stitches_by_tehcheychibi-d4ot022.png) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **Powers**: While not even close to being the strongest metahuman in existence, Akaoni is widely known for his wide variety of abilities that completely differ from one another. But, with great powers come great weaknesses and even a feared 'monster' like him is, at the end of the day, fallible. _Electro-magnetic pulse release_: Akaoni is a walking EMP grenade. He can flex his entire body and disable all communication devices within a certain range, and the good part about it is that he can fix his work radius to embroil an entire metropolitan area. There are, however, two drawbacks to this ability; -the blackout would only last about 5-6 minutes, 10 tops. -the pulse that would surge through his body would render him in a three to four day coma, so it's understandable that he wouldn't use it in an offensive. Releasing a small burst, one enough to disable a police station for a couple of minutes, only subjects him to the paralysis for a short amount of time, like 1-2 minutes, depending on the radius. So there is that. _Metahuman speed and agility_: When his combat mode is activated, Akaoni can move at great speeds, able to outrun a leopard in a drag race. It took specially designed cameras that registered 1200 frames per second to at least get a glimpse of him. Unfortunately, once he starts running, he can't stop without damaging himself or bumping His agility matches that of a trained soldier, able to dodge incoming hits while simultaneously planning counterattacks, even though he's not renowned for being a thinker. He is capable of scaling trees, buildings and even huge mountains in a record time. _Near immortality_: One of Akaoni's primary characteristics is that unlike the rest of the humans (and the majority of metahumans) he doesn't need organs to live. There are two joint entities inhabiting his body, one in charge of controlling his motor skills, located in his chest where a heart's left ventricle should be and the other in charge of controlling his thought and decision making, which covers the majority of the skull, spreading it's influence all over the brain, excluding the hypothalamus. The one in charge of motor skills is called Red Oni, while the other is known as the Blue Oni. Even though both entities share a purpose, that is to help Akaoni survive, the Red Oni is shown to be far more malevolent. It's sole command is to kill anyone in sight. The Blue Oni is there to prevent the Red Oni from inciting a full scale war. It represents Akaoni's rationality, and as such, has the ability to whisper into him. The Blue Oni urges his host to plan ahead, warns him of danger and helps him process data collected from different encounters, data which is eventually forwarded to the Red Oni. There is basically nothing under the host's control, but his own sight. Needless to say, even though the entities are able to keep Akaoni alive, they can't make him act without having a foundation to work on, hence why the demon needs an organ transplant. Because the damaged hypothalamus is beyond Blue Oni's reach, every 12 hours the body overheats to a point that the organs inside start melting. Failure to give himself a transplant results in a sort of paralysis. He is alive, he can see, but he can't walk or use any of his limbs. Simply put, he can't be killed, but he can be buried. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **Skills**: Akaoni possesses no particular skills. He knows the basics of combat, that is punch, kick, slash, but other than that he is pretty much doomed. **Equipment**: -Two machete blades -A rusty refrigerator which he carries around with a rusty wagon -A red metallic mask, which he sports. The mask is also a tactical tool, covered with kevlar which makes it highly resistant to bullets. Besides serving as protection, it also holds Akaoni's brains from falling out. The mask covers most of his head, besides a small part on the back which is left susceptible to damage. -A sewing basket. **Ranking**: A. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **Brief History**: Ever since his appearance in 2011, Akaoni, roughly translated as Red Demon, became a popular Japanese urban legend, especially around the Iwate Prefecture where the first sightings occurred. Like with all urban legends, different versions of the story spread around. But while different, they all had one thing in common - each detailed supernatural forces as the catalysts behind the beast. In reality, things went much more differently. What would become Akaoni was, in fact, just an old Japanese man. He is yet to be given a name, however it's alleged that he ran a small prop shop south of Morioka. Even though 63 years old, the man was praised for aging gracefully, possessing a fit and healthy body which he honed frequently. It's said that a man needs a reason to stay fit, and whether that's true or not, it's unimportant. What's worth mentioning is that the man had a reason to improve himself, and that was cosplaying. It was deemed very unusual for a man his age to be obsessed over things that are practiced only by a younger demographic, but the man didn't care. He ignored all the snide remarks by visiting every cosplay convention that he could, sewing his own costumes, blending in with the crowd. It's presumed he had no social life beyond that, and he was perfectly OK with that. One Thursday, the man was making his way home, holding a red demon mask which he'd designed himself. The word 'earthquake' was being tossed around a lot by the surrounding people, but he casually disregarded their remarks. He had just made the perfect costume, an original work of art, mind you - a combat attire, a mask and two shiny machetes. The suit was different as in it was the real thing, authentic, genuine, whatever's the word for it. It wasn't made of cheap material like pleather. Heck, the mask was filled with kevlar from the inside, so you know that cost money. As soon as he made his way home, the man proudly wore the costume around, grabbing his machetes and doing all kinds of twisted movements, pretty unnatural for someone who should have been a grandpa by then. He kept the suit up until morning, and refused to remove it even then, flaunting it before the bystanders as some scowled, some burst laughing, while some couldn't comprehend the obscurity of the situation. However, it turns out that he had a quarrel with a brutal loan shark, most likely concerning the money he credited from him which he used to create his outfit. He wanted his money back, grandpa didn't have 'em, and one thing lead to another. It all started, and in a way, ended, when a brick hit the old man's head and caused him to tumble down on the ground. It took only one blow to kill him in an instant, but the shark wasn't satisfied yet. He dragged the massacre to the docks, stomping his head whenever he could get the chance, until nothing was left of it but bone dust. Then, he pulled out a knife and gutted him, possibly so as to remove some of his weight and let him sink down on the bottom of the water. It was then that a huge earthquake rumbled over Japan. It was then, the moment Akaoni awakened. In a twist of fate, turns out the man was actually a sleeper meta. An S ranked, while we're at that. Sadly, due to his powers surfacing at a point in which he was half past dead, he failed to reach his full potential. His powers manifested into two symbiotic entities instead, branded with a collective purpose - to ensure a dead man's survival. When the night fell, a grotesque hand stretched from the water. The demon, Akaoni, under the command of a soft spoken voice inside his head walked around a ruined Morioka, the aftermath of the greatest earthquake to ever conquer Japan. He reached out for his machetes, creeping down on an alleyway, pressing against his stomach to make sure his guts, or at least what was left of 'em, didn't fall. After quite some time, he finally found a body lying down the rubble, the body of a woman. She was dead by the time he got there, prompting the injured man to mercilessly run his machete through her guts. He was no surgeon, but he could transplant his organs with ease, much to his surprise. Thereafter, the man made his way through the empty city, gradually losing touch with humanity by each step. He crawled down his thrashed house, reaching for a sewing basket which he used to sew his clothes. This time, though, it wasn't clothes he was going to sew - it was himself. The rest is history. The man slowly became dehumanized, unwillingly embracing his Akaoni personality. Sightings of him stretched beyond the Japanese borders, some being documented around the neighboring states, while the latest being here - in America. The most prominent rumor is that the beast is after Aperture Corps, convinced that they can help him stabilize his body. **Other**: It goes without saying, Akaoni lacks reproductive organs and as such lacks a sexual desire. His vocal chords are damaged beyond repair, thus he only communicates via barely understandable grunts. Basically, he's a simplified organism. Dissimilar to the rest of the metahumans, he bears no need for companions or affection. He has no memory of his past either, due to the numerous brain transplants he has received over the course of his journey. His one and only goal is to find a way to fix his body, and consequently achieve immortality. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **Theme Song**: [Celldweller - Kill The Sound] (https://soundcloud.com/sid-the-pittalein/sets/celldweller-kill-the-sound)

Name: Adam Savage Alias(s): Warpath Age: 24 Affiliations: The heroes Description: He is six feet and two inches tall. He has dirty blond hair and light blue eyes. He is very well built and has a good amount of muscle. When he is in costume, he wears a bright red and blue spandex body suit and a Kevlar vast. To hide his identity Adam wears visor sunglasses that are extremely durable. Powers: Energy Weapon Constructs: Adam can create weapons made out of pure energy such as swords, staffs, daggers and guns. They function similar to their normal counterparts, but the construct swords and other bladed weapons can cut through most material, he can even change their sizes depending on how much power he puts into the construct. These weapons are very light and require energy to use and his gun constructs use up even more energy when they fire energy off energy ammunition. All of his weapons must stay in his hands in order to keep from vanishing, but the second he lets go of the weapon it vanishes. His powers stem from a large well of energy within his body that replenishes itself by not using his powers or by absorbing energy. Energy Absorption: he can absorb photon and electromagnetic energy to replenish his reserves of energy that allow him to use his powers. Adam does have a limit to how much he can absorb and if he takes in too much energy than will become overwhelmed with incredible pain. Enhanced Reflexes: Adam has a very fast reaction time and is quick enough to knock bullets out of the air with his construct weapons for a very short time frame. Skills: He is at the peak of human physical perfection and has been extremely well trained in hand to hand combat. He has mastered several different martial arts and is incredibly skilled in the art of weapon fighting, studying from the famous European schools of fencing from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. He is an excellent athlete and is trained in parkour as well as acrobatics. He has a great amount of knowledge and skill in urban warfare and marksmanship. Being trained by scientists as well as military specialists also greatly developed his mental capabilities and he has a great amount of knowledge. Equipment: Adam has rocket boots that allow him to fly for short distances, and a gauntlet that was both a supercomputer and high-tech communicator. His visor also has infrared vision, a targeting system and thermal vision. Ranking: B (Optional) Brief History: Adam savage was born to a great military scientist by the name of Simon Savage. Simon had been part of a governmental research and training program to create super soldiers for the US government. Adam at first seemed like a normal boy, but at a very young age he exhibited very strange powers that fascinated his father and he decided to indoctrinate him into the training program. Adam's mother objected to this and threatened to tell the public about his work. Unfortunately, Adam's motehr died in a vehicular accident and Adam was too young to find any suspicion in her death and just mourned her with his father. Without his wife to stop him, Simon Savage made his son spend the rest of his childhood all the way into his early twenties training to be the greatest asset to the US military. They trained him the incredible arts of sword fighting and he particularly loved studying the European fencing styles of the medieval and renaissance period. He took hand to hand combat training and strength training as well as parkour and heavily studying in urban warfare and marksmanship. His father and his colleagues were pushing Adam to the absolute limit in human physical perfection. Not only was his body adapting to the intense training, his powers were also growing stronger as he developed them. His weapons got more complex and dangerous and his reflexes were incredibly quick. The scientists also trained his mind for problem solving and gave him an incredible intellect. Eventually when he became an adult his training was finished and he was used for covert missions of the up most secrecy, fighting against America's enemies. Things were top secret until the superhumans came out in the world and things changed. The government saw this as an opportunity to have one of their own to pose as a hero for the media and they chose Adam. They adapted his costume to make it look like a little more flashy and like a superhero. They gave him the name Battle-Master and for several years, he had been working as a superhero to keep on an eye on the non governmental heroes and combat villains. He has been given orders to find out who is behind the terrorist attacks against the government and take them out if necessary.

Name: John Morrison Alias(s): Mountain Lion Age: 35 Affiliations: The heroes Description: His costume is very similar to those worn by black ops agents, but the colors are a slight brown and red. He wears no helmet. John is six feet and three inches tall. He is very muscular and has tawny colored fur. Because of his mutation he has fur all over his body and has incredibly sharp claws on his hands. he has the head of a mountain lion, and a tail and he looks like an anthropomorphic Mountain Lion. Powers: his mutation into an anthropomorphic mountain lion has given him very sharp claws that can cut through iron, and incredible agility. He also has feral like instincts and behavior. He can perform a super jump that can clear over a hundred feet and his climbing skills are extremely good. John has all of the senses that a Mountain Lion has and his strength is six times stronger than a regular human. Skills: He is very skilled in combat and has had government training. He is a good leader and his heightened sense of smell makes it easy for him recognize people and track enemies. Equipment: none Ranking: C (Optional) Brief History: John's childhood was not one that most kids kids would dream of, his father was negligent and his mother was abusive. Even worse was the fact that they had money troubles and didn't have too much. All of these things saw a darker and more wilder element put into John's mind. He became angry and more violent with others. He terrorized his fellow classmates at school and eventually got suspended from school for his behavior. He spent the rest of childhood and teenage years having very little social contact with people and trying to get as far away from his family as he possibly could. As a kid he would runaway to the woods and forests around his town to have solace there where he didn't have to worry about the hard cruel world that society inhabited. He was always at peace among nature. Eventually he moved out of the toxic environment that was his home and made a new home in Houston Texas. Eventually he managed to get a job as a member of a government agency where he could put his anger and want of fighting to good use. There he received training in combat and marksmanship and was sent on many dangerous missions learning how to be a leader and commanding a squad on several occasions, his time with the government saw become acquainted with the superhuman Weapon Master and they formed a neutral partnership. Together they helped each complete several dangerous missions. But after several years he grew tired of it and wanted to stop killing. He left the agency and went back to Houston and there he tried to have a more peaceful life. Things seemed to be getting better for John and he settled down with a woman named Clare. During the years he was with Clare, John was happy for the first time in many years and he felt like he could finally close the door on his terrible past. But fate would prove to be cruel and in 2010, a robber broke into their home and killed Clare. That was when his mutation kicked in and in a blind rage he brutally killed the robber. After the robber was dead, he saw what he had changed into when he looked into a mirror. He was a beastly looking Mountain Lion like man and barely looked human. Had claws and his senses had changed and it was disorientating. He had prayed to God in hopes that all of the terrible things that had happen to him would cease, but they didn't and Clare was dead. John was stricken with terrible grief and to make things worse he looked like a freak and not human. He wished that it was a terrible dream and that he would wake up, but it wasn't. John was now a mutant and he despised it. Now that the rise of people with strange powers and mutations was seen by the world, John now was trying to find his way in an uncertain world and pick up the extremely painful broken pieces of his life. His anger at the way his life turned out has made him take on a life of vigilantism and try to relieve himself of his pain by giving it to others that he finds deserve it. After training himself some more in the art of combat he took on a persona that fit his mutation. He is Mountain Lion.

Pirouette Stories Yet Untold

Name: Ann and Ariadne Alias(s): Casper Age: 16 Affiliations: None Description: Ann, and by extension Ariadne, will always be wearing the same thing with only slight variation. Ann's go-to is a white shirt complimented by a red skirt, whose length hovers around her knees. Candy cane colored stockings cover her legs and a pair of plain black flats cover her feet. Pretty much her old school uniform. Powers: Ann and Ariadne have abilities that go hand-to-hand with their opposite. Anna, who can be declared as living, retains her full faculties (mind and body) in the physical world and to the naked eye, she is just some normal girl. Ariadne, who can be declared as dead, exists only in a supernatural state of existence, like a spirit or ghost. Ariadne cannot interact with the physical world outside of the very faint revelations a ghost can do. Anna, however, can always see where Ariadne is but cannot see other ghosts. The interesting part of Ann and Ariadne's power comes from their own interaction. If Ariadne and Anna were to touch each other, they could swap existence planes and break some of the rules their other could not. In the physical world, Ariadne's physical form is remarkable. Her strength increases tenfold and her body becomes resistant to physical damage. She can lift and toss smaller automobiles. Her bones can resist breaking and her skin hardens to deflect lighter caliber bullets. She is entirely immune to pain and any feeling in her body. She displays remarkable and unnatural speed, being able to move up to about seventy-five miles per hour in a sprint and a quartered reaction time compared to a normal human. However, Ariadne isn't intelligent and is prone to bloodlust rages at the slightest inconveniences. There is also an important note of Ariadne is not immune to injury. A broken leg can severely hamper her violent rage. Ariadne also cannot remain in the physical world and degradation can happen after extended visits to the physical plane. Meanwhile in the spiritual world, Ann can do things that ghosts could not. She can fully appear as a specter in the physical world and can apply some force to the physical world. Working with Ariadne, Ann can trip and push but in more serve cases, can disrupt a marksmen's shot which was aimed at Ariadne's head. Her touch is described as quite cold, so much so that water might freeze if she interacts with it long enough. Ann can also communicate with the spirits that haunt our physical world, although all of them tend to give Ann the cold shoulder. Ann is fully immune to injury in this form. Switching back is as simple as the two of them touching again. No matter how mangled Ariadne may be, she will be able to return to the physical world in full health after a time depending on her recovery. Ann comes back to the physical world mostly intact but dealing with ghosts can be quiet taxing. Any harm down to Ann in the physical form is, however, not recoverable with a switch of planes. Mortal wounds done to Ann will kill her but not Ariadne. Skills: Ann and Ariadne possess no technical skills or really any other ability that may contribute to a cause. If you had to count anything, Ann is pretty sympathic and in touch with the emotions of others while Ariadne is very empathic and couldn't care less about morality and such. Equipment: Ann and Ariadne live in a state of committing petty thievery to sustain mainly Ann. They don't have really anything. Ranking: A (Optional) Brief History: Ann and Ariadne believe to have been twins at one point, selected by some unknown group to be the subject of Metahuman creation. For two years, Ann and Ariadne were in captivity and subjugated to tests and experiments. The whole process was as humane as it could be, save for the forced kidnapping, experiments, and possibly the killing of Ariadne as this probably isn't irreversible. Whatever happened, a lot of it remains cloudy and even the circumstances of their escape is something they can't remember. Note: A well trained physic can possibly reveal Ann and Ariadne's true origin.
