[Ultron2015]

Name: Terrence Park
Alias: Brass
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Skills: One of the best young fighters in Blüdhaven, incorporating a number of styles. Advanced Archer and Swordsmen. Proficient with firearms.
Powers: Metagene-Terry’s partially active metagene allows for him to absorb various forms of energy. The easiest form for him to absorb is kinetic but electric and heat energies aren’t much of a problem either. A large influx of energy may render him unconscious. His energy absorption allows for superhuman agility, durability, reflexes, and strength until the energy runs out.
He can exert great strength from his muscles allowing him to crush, lift, throw or catch up to 16 tons. He can react faster than fastest humans can and can dodge, or even catch, fast moving objects like arrows. His durability can be increased to withstand machine-gun fire and falls from well over 500 feet with minimal harm. He can demonstrate impossible jumps, flips, and twists.
He cannot absorb magic energy or radiation. His physical powers are all derived from his absorption so if somehow runs out energy he will be reduced to a human who regularly engages in intense exercise. He has no defense for psychic or magical attacks since those energies are also outside of the scope of his powers. He can still be crushed or cut.
Equipment: A pair of short eskrima sticks, three aluminum knives, and a number of energy drinks in various containers
Personality: He wants everything to be right not good but right. He tries to maximize the happiness of those around him in hopes that it will make him happy. In truth, due to his upbringing the only thing that really makes him happy is combat. He joined H.I.V.E. to get a better life than the one he had in Blüdhaven but harbors guilt over those he left behind especially since a large part of him doesn’t really understand why he left.
History: Terry’s father was a mysterious man who was a member of the Republic of Korea Army Special Forces. Terry’s father met Sandra on a mission to Blüdhaven that never officially happened. However, Terry’s father did manage to impregnate Sandra before he left. Terry’s father left Sandra and his unborn son with a very large sum of money. Sandra was a social worker and decided not to leave Blüdhaven because she believed she could do good there.
Sandra had plans for Terry. She wanted him to be Blüdhaven’s favorite son but first she knew he had to survive. A few months after he learned to walk Terry was submitted to all kinds of training to prepare him for the life his mother had planned for him. She made him take Gymnastics and Archery. She had him trained in Aikido, Taekwondo, Judo, fencing, Boxing, and Eskrima. She taught him Chess and Go as soon as he could understand the concepts. As he grew older, he took up Wrestling and swimming.
He went to school but his interest were in his extracurricular activities, so he did just enough to pass to the next grade. He just wasn’t very interested in traditional academia despite his mother wanting him to go to law school. He felt he was more of a physical type, a brawler.
Terry eventually joined a local gang. He quickly rose through the ranks and became part of the inner circle of one gang; it helped that he was always large for his age. Eventually, he became the one pulling the strings. He tried to use his influence to minimize the suffering of Blüdhaven because despite everything it was still “his” city.
Terry was no stranger to tragedy. However, some tragedies are worse than others. About six months before he threw in with H.I.V.E., Terry was abducted by unknown assailants. This wouldn’t have been so bad if he hadn’t been with Melinda, the girl he believed was his one true love. Their kidnappers tortured them for over a week in an attempt to get them to turn on each other as part of some sort of sick game. Eventually, their torturers decided to kill the pair hooking them up to car batteries and setting the warehouse they were in on fire.
Terry survived, Melinda did not. Eventually, Terry’s gang found them. Terry was furious that the police hadn’t even attempted to save him or Melinda. Realizing that he had powers, he gathered his circle and decided that if the cops weren’t going to do their jobs he “would be the brass this town needs.” However, when he got the chance to go to H.I.V.E. academy, he took it.
Appearance: 5’10”, Extremely Muscular build, short dark brown hair, green eyes, he has a number of scars.

*sigh* always lonely at a 3rd shift job.

[Saarebas]

Okay I have a few concerns.

1) 30 Tons is a bit much, nerf it some what. Maybe 16

2) I will allow the arrow catching, but no bullet catching. He may be fast but he can't be fast enough to catch bullets

3) I would be okay if he can take low caliber fire arms, but just being able to stroll through machine gun fire... You know what just keep that, but if he gets a shotgun blast to the chest he is going to feel it in a bad way.

Done.

Okay approved, time to update the character list

[Saarebas]

Character list updated, let me know if I missed anyone.

[Flood]

Is this still open?

Name: Ryan H Alon
Alias: Flood
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Skills:
Knows multiple languages, high physical abilities, over 200 IQ, mastery of several different weapons.
Powers:
Increased healing factor, it is believed that his reaction time is supernaturally fast (no proof of this has been discovered as of yet)
Equipment: Multiple different guns, a bo staff/scythe (the blade can retract)
Personality: (I don't like to decide that in an IC)
History: Much of his past is unknown however it is believed he is an experiment made to recreate Deathstroke. Sometime between the age of 10 and 12 he woke up in an abandoned warehouse with several syringes nearby and a note that said "You're free." He was found wandering the streets of Jump City at the age of 13 and was taken in Slade Wilson A.K.A Deathstroke. He enrolled in the H.I.V.E Academy at the age of 16 and was recently accepted.
Appearance:
Is about 5"5, skinny, wears a full black suit. He'll typically wear a plain black trenchcoat with his collar up so he can hide his neck. Always wears black dress shoes, generally looks very professional. He wears a mask whenever on missions. He has dyed blue hair, a pretty average face (someone you would forget if you saw in a crowd) and his bangs always cover his left eye. If one were to see him without a shirt however they would see multiple scars from both medical experiments, torture, a combination of the two, and self inflicted wounds all over his body. Wears leather gloves at all times so he can cover up his hands as well. Basically he tries to keep every inch of his skin aside from his face covered.
Other:
(This is what his mask looks like.)

[Saarebas]

Okay how fast his healing factor? High physical abilities such as what and how high? How fast is supernaturally fast reaction time?

[Mistress Dizzy]

Hiya. Space for one more? Are there any telekinetics yet?

[Saarebas]

Sure, but I think you might be the last one. If I have addressed you CS already you can still get in, but no more new comers after Mistress Dizzy. And no I do not think we do.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Awesome. Let me whip up a profile... and try to see what would lead my girl into villainy.

His healing factor is almost as effective as Deathstroke's was. Imagine it like this. He can get shot multiple times in the chest, and he will be downed for about an hour. He will regenerate after that. To kill him it would require some special sort of material that stops regeneration. Like what Deadpool used to kill Wolverine. His physical abilities could be said to be on par with a professional MMA fighter. Not quite enough to go toe to toe with a super powered enemy, but more than enough to go against any normal human. His reaction time is faster than almost anyone in existence. Only the fastest of the fast can beat him when it comes to his reaction times. It's right below Batman's in basic terms.

[Flood]

Also, sorry about not including a picture with my CS. I couldn't find a good picture that quite captured the essence of Ryan. If anyone does they're free to post it.

[Saarebas]

So he is basically invulnerable? Sorry but no. I have no problem with him having a regenerative ability, but having to get a special type of martial to kill him is a no. I am willing to allow it takes a lot to kill him but no "I took a gun shot to the head, just give me a minute and I will be fine." So no superhuman strength okay I will allow that, but go making him lift cars or trucks and stuff. Yeah... how fast is that then? He can't just like "oh that bullet is moving so slow I might as well dodge it with ease." As for the picture that is okay, I just need a description like you gave.

It's not like he can just shrug off bullets. They seriously wound him, it will take days for him to heal for something like a gunshot to the head. i suppose I forgot to mention that he still needs air and other basic human necessities to live. If someone knew about his regenerative powers they could just do something like drown him. Regarding the reaction time, just because he can see the bullet doesn't mean he can dodge it. It just means he can see it and think about what to do about it. Another comparison to Batman should help (Sorry for all the Batman comparisons). Batman can dodge a bullet at point blank range. This is an established fact. Ryan has reflexes just below Batman, which can be even greater with training. He can't dodge a point blank bullet, but he can dodge a bullet from a couple of feet away. Unless it's a machine gun, in which case not even Batman can dodge that. Is that a good explanation?

[twave]

Reaction time is the delay of perceiving, processing, choosing an action, and putting into motion that action. The speed at which the action is done is then a matter of physical ability.

Edit: Also Batman is not really dodging a bullet in your scenario. He is predicting the path of the bullet and moving before it is fired based on his opponents behavior and movements.
