Rumiko, what exactly will Aperture do when they find out that Ruby knows nothing? Also, is she getting controlled surges of electricity in her cell, because if she wasn't, she would more than likely die?

Okay, some worries and reflections - if I don't get a reply, I'll be (humorously) pissed off:

- One, basically, Cedric's treatment (getting beaten and tasered until he bonds with one of the few people who didn't treat him like shit), then getting exposed to stuff like a man being lit on fire, that's going to screw him up. I mean, I want him to get traumatized; it makes people pity him, but I also don't want him to go insane, or even whacked in the head. Any tips on dealing with that?

- Two, wow, this world is crapsack. The Government and Corporations are both assholes, Cedric (a 15-year old kid) had to watch a guy getting burned alive, Ruby, who I think is a 15-year old girl is enslaved to a corporation, and everyone just gets treated badly. Wow, this is grimdark. Can someone hug me, and is there any chance our actions can at least make some part of the world a better place?

-Ruby had a similar background; she was locked away in a facility so that she could never harm the world. She, however, snapped as she escaped and killed three on the way out. Maybe Cedric is just a wounded soul in need of TLC? Also, I think I might make another character after Ruby is mostly out of harm's way.

-Hey, governments and corporations in real life are assholes too, we're just being realistic! Anyhow, Ruby is 18 and she isn't enslaved. She just needs to get past her non-conductive cell and all Hell will break lose! Anyhow, you saved Caro so maybe we'll start to see Mercs being dragged to the Meta prison?

Cedric isn't retreating; only his companion is, and taking Caro with him.

Well now I won't go into details but Ruby is in a cell tailor made for her. If she examines it she'll find she's totally shielded from the outside world and the power to her cell is battery only.
Oh and soon I'll have a write-up completed about what Ruby Learned at her Data theft

Name: Constantine Ramiel King
Alias(s): Insert
Age: 30, but looks 22.
Affiliations: Heroes
Description:


Powers:

((Old Power, Edited Out: Constantine's power is basically the power to insert himself into new situations and organizations via a specialized form of Mind Control and Illusion, which he has made stronger by attaching 'mental conditions' for said power to activate. Said conditions are that 1.) he must write up a convincing 'story' or 'alibi' on a piece of paper, basically a 'self-insert' story, and 2.) there must be an available 'opening' for him in the situation and organization that he is inserting himself into. For example, if he wants to insert himself into a Corporate Project as an executive or secretary, there must be an executive or secretary job open. If he wants to enter a story about romance, there must be a slot open for the narrative 'roles' of the best friend or alternative love interest.))

((The perks of this power are immense; with the right alibi and opening, Constantine can basically place himself into any situation or important organization, and leave them just as easily. Not merely that, but due to the fact that his power is boosted by his self-imposed conditions, he is undetectable by powers and technology that pierce mind control and illusions. However, there is a super-drawback to this power as well; this undetectability applies only to the people 'within' the story; people outside it, such as people from another project, or newcomers to said project, or, in the case of the romance story, just passing bystanders, would be immune to the mind control and illusions, and be able to catch Constantine in the act; this means that Constantine is good mostly for temporary insertions.))

((Also Retconned Out: Constantine's power is to walk into people's dreams, either for the purpose of reading his destination's memories, or to talk to them without danger of surveillance, or, most potently, reshape their dreams to nightmares. However, there are two limitations to this power: 1.) Constantine has to be asleep when using this power, and 2.) all of his targets gain the power of Lucid Dreaming, allowing them to control the contents of their dreams as well as Constantine can, perhaps even better. Which is why turning dreams to nightmares is only a last-ditch option in the man's arsenal.))

Constantine's power is to control the ability of people and electronic eyes to process images, basically, an illusion that doesn't rely on holograms, but on mind manipulation. Or, in other words, he can control what a person sees. However, this power has limits in that it cannot affect the other senses, such as smell, touch, hearing, or even taste. As for electronic equipment, he can mess with the process by which cameras and such form pictures, allowing him to deceive them, too. However, stuff such as pressure sensors, electronic listening bugs, or infrared beams aren't covered by this power.

And, finally, while he can deceive the eyes of animals like dogs, he cannot deceive their sense of smell.

Skills: Constantine is a trained spy who is skilled in subterfuge, with training in weapons, faking and hiding evidence (for when his powers are not enough), and a basic knowlege in History, Literature, Tactics, and a smattering of Science and Technology. He also knows the basics of Economics and Management, so as to further infiltrate companies. However, his main weakness is that his body is as frail as a normal human, especially to Metas.

Equipment: Guns, Surveillance Equipment, Knives, Recording Equipment, a Notebook and a Pen for his self-insertion stories.

Ranking: C - A, depending on the level of self-insertion that Constantine indulges in.

Brief History: ((More Retcons: Constantine Ramiel King was an ordinary Chicago boy whose parents ran a small bookstore, until one day, said parents were killed in a car accident, a car accident caused by a rich CEO, Martin Stuart, head of the up-and-coming company StuCorp. In remorse, and as Constantine had no relatives, Martin adopted Constantine as his own, raising him alongside his son, Garion 'Gary' Stuart. Although Constantine resented the two at first, he grew to warm up to them, and grew up well, although his future life choice, joining the Government - it was unknown if it was the FBI, CIA, or NSA - was unusual. Nevertheless, Constantine served long and faithfully, in both savory and unsavory jobs, slowly acquiring a thick skin for unethical actions...which lasted until he manifested Metahuman powers.

From the start, Constantine became involved in the Metahuman Rights Movement, as he saw the injustices facing the Metahuman community from both the Government and the Corporations. He also realized that while he alone cannot fix the world, he can make things a little better, seeking out isolated injustices and rectifying them, and fighting for better conditions for both Government and Corporate Metas; if they cannot have the same rights as a 'true citizen', then he would at least make their lives a little better. Ironically, his time in the FBI/CIA/Some other Federal Organization had made him more Idealistic, not less, because he now saw this: that while goodness cannot always succeed, nor can it extend anywhere, the points of light that do exist can, and must, be valued.))

All right; first up, would Constantine's powers be acceptable in this setting? Also, how powerful will you permit them to be?

Edit: Sorry for the delay!
