Most of this stuff is for Arc 2. If you want all the information on Arc 3, I recommend heading here and posting a CS there as well. Welcome back to the world of the Gifted! This world is unlike our own and after the events of the Maybark Incident, the population of humans with unnatural powers has increased exponentially. These humans, aptly dubbed "metas", are individuals with powers ranging from the most mundane of things to being able to wipe out entire towns in a blink of an eye. Due to initial public backlash, very little is known about the origins of these powers but after public opinion on metas changed, more and more research was indulged in the field. Now, five years later, there isn't a country on the Earth that has yet to arm itself with a powerful Meta or group of Metas. Whether they serve the public, hire their services out to others or use their powers to make money, metas have become a critical part of life in this new-age of superpowers. The first group highlighted --the Heroes-- are the guardians of the common people and the main judiciary body when it comes to dealing with other metas. The second --the Mercs-- are typically lone-wolves who offer the use of their abilities in different situations, for the right price, of course. For example, a Merc could be paid by a celebrity to protect them or used by gangs for smuggling. The final group --the corporates-- are a group of metas that use their abilities to make money or become top of the food-chain of business. Each group has their differences but they're all linked by one single truth - Metahumans are driving society in a new and completely arbitrary direction. So, will you climb to the top of the business empire and forge billions for yourself? Or will you protect the innocent from harm in this dangerous new world? Maybe you can even offer your services for a price? Whatever way you choose, it is guaranteed to be a long and bumpy ride. ---

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: Constantine Ramiel King was an ordinary Chicago boy whose parents ran a small bookstore...in a district where fights between the local heroes and villains were common. Despite this, he and his parents lived a relatively happy life until, one day, a fight between metahumans set fire to their bookstore and Constantine's parents were killed, with Cosntantine himself surviving because of his small size. Furthermore, the one who killed the boy's parents was one of the heroes...who promptly adopted Constantine in a fit of remorse. As you can expect, relations between Constantine and his new 'father' were not the best for a long while, but eventually, they reconciled, and it was at that time that Constantine's Metahuman powers surfaced.

For some time, Constantine was a normal Metahuman with the ability to use Mind Control and Illusions, but, as he grew older, he realized the fact that attaching 'conditions', mental requirements for him to use his powers, made them more powerful, enabling him to overstep his normal limits. At the same time, he also became involved in the Metahuman Rights Movement, and 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...

Name: Thomas Howard
Alias(s): Mara the Magical
Age: 39
Affiliations: None
Description: Thomas in his normal, original form was a tall, slender and slightly attractive man. He was looming and always smiling - his mouth so big and his eyes so wide that people often had to adjust their gaze. His neck was slightly too long and without muscle, and his thin body seems endlessly long. Before the emergence of his powers, Thomas worked a part-time office job for the government and working part-time as a magician which was where his heart lay. He wore his magician garments proudly - billowing black robes, a freshly ironed and tucked shirt, long crisp black trousers and claw sharp polished shoes. And to top it off, his intimidatingly massive top hat and dark eye mask.

Powers: Mara's powers lay in the supernatural: that is, the science too tough for humans to understand. His powers emulate Mara, the Buddhist demon of skill-less emotions and the enemy of any enlightened being. In his pursuit of mischief, chaos and sorrow, Mara's powers are completely random but often have negative effects due to his evil intent.
For instance, he may wish to pull a gun out of his hat to fight an enemy, but pull out pepper spray. Or aim to curse them with bad looks, but make them so beautiful they're murdered by stalkers.

Skills: Can type 105wpm, owns two double-jointed thumbs and can play 'Nearer my God to Thee' after spontaneously learning it on violin at a very chocolatey Greek wedding.
Equipment: Magical top hat and wand.
Ranking: A or above? Eeek.

Brief History:
By the age of thirty, Thomas was incredibly depressed and suicidal. His life had up until then been completely void of anything extraordinary or interesting, and it had made him sick. He had become tired of living his ordinary, average existence and often kept writings full of suicide plans which he only ever meekly attempted. Instead of recovering, Thomas' depression spiralled out of control. He became violent and depended constantly on drugs before his mind descended into psychosis. Not long after these dramatic and sudden events, Thomas had vanished from his asylum room, leaving walls scratched with the image of a haunting black demon and the words 'Mara' bloodily covering the floor.
Since then, accounts have flooded out of LA and cities across the world of a masked magician causing chaos; turning a Greek's family wedding guests into chocolate, faking the deaths of notable leaders in the middle east and transforming royal family members into hermaphrodites.

Hey Mazoy! Well, so far, we've had someone break into Aperture Labs which ended in a chase. The heroes and mercs descended upon the LAPD HQ which ended with a lot of bloodshed as the Mercs tried to stop a gangster called Caro who was going to reveal every Merc in the city. Then, the girl who stole from Aperture got caught by them and is currently a few hundred feet beneath a mining platform! I'm working on Story Arc 2 for when that clears up!

I maybe would have lessened his powers if it wasn't for the fact that we need someone who can beat Cypress! Very nice application though, you're accepted! If you have any questions then just shoot, if not then you can head to the main-post and begin on an IC post!

By the way, we have a shortage of heroes so I'd prefer another one or two!

So much attention! This is exactly what the RP needs! Also sure, that sounds like a pretty cool character to me! Throw up a CS when you can.

Aha! Well, just say the word and I can write up some weaknesses, if you'd like?

EDIT:

Also, where do you want my character to be?

Sure, some weaknesses wouldn't be so bad! You can put your character wherever you want, really. I know that there will be three more new people getting posts up between now and tomorrow so if you want to wait and start with them then go for it! If you don't then there is about three different story-lines going on, feel free to ask on the main OOC if you could drop into one of them?

Looks good but make sure not to power-play using Cerebro. It has the potential to be very over-powered if he can adapt quickly in the heat of battle! Overall though, looks good to me!
