@NattyThat's pretty much the only route open unless someone wants to read over 600+ posts. Lol. And to have a character be pre-established. Unless this RP doesn't care about retroactively changing things, then it's not an issue.
I like your thinking. I'm not in the mood of reading all posts right now :(
Hey, does anybody have any power ideas? I have been drawing up completely blank and can't figure out any power sets that I like to go with my time traveler. I kinda wanna have his powers be the result of technology but I'm not one hundred percent on it.
I had this idea a while back, a character who defeated Death in a combat and, in return, was tricked to use her skills—which overcame Death himself—to hunt down evil doers until she perish or the world is free from evil. I'm posting the WIP to show her powers, if is okay or not. (Btw, I was going with immortality but I don't know if it would be accepted)
Name: Catherine Cooper Age: 30 (She stopped aging at 27 years old) Alias: Red Hood Gender: Female Previous City of Operation:
Appearance:
Catherine is 5'3" (1.63m) tall and weights only 114 lbs (51 kg). She has her mother's looks attached to her, brown eyes, milky-white skin with epicantic folds around her eyes, an evidence of her Asian race. Cath's oval face is followed by a perky nose. Her lips are slightly fleshy and she has above-shoulder auburn hair. She has scars scattered throughout her athletic body.
Catherine's outfit includes leather paldrons, armbands, boots and torso all that dyed in teal. The leather part of her outfit is detailed with oriental golden lines style. The most remarkable feature in her outfit is the crimson red silk hood from which she gets her vigilante name.
Powers:
Touch of Death — After a stalemate with Death himself, Catherine was drowned in the Fountain of Youth. In the bargain, it was given to Catherine an incredibly long lifespan tempered with a curse. In arrogance and pride she became a mere shell, an instrument of justice; she will never know rest as she wanders this world hunting the horrors that haunt the innocents. All that under a vow not to kill. The tainted waters made her sterile.
Arrow Generation — By manipulatin a form of energy Catherine can generate a number of different arrows each with a special ability depending on the way she shapes it. For instance, she can create arrows that works like flare or, using the same trick, store the energy in a more violent manner designed to produce a blinding flash of light and an intensely loud "bang" and temporarily disorient an enemy's senses. Catherine can also shape elemental energy to use arrows that freeze the surface, electric arrows designed to stun or damage electrical devices, stone arrows used to knock down targets, water and fire arrows. Other uses include arrows that release smoke upon impact, exploding arrows or even entangling arrows. As long she can shape the energy, there is near infinite possibilities.
Abilities/Skills:
Equipment:
A recurve bow made of layers of fiberglass laminated around a yew core. Her bow has no special properties beyond allowing her to shot special arrows.
Two expandable batons that can also be adjusted to combine both batons into a bo-staff.
Skills/Abilities:Cassie has extremely accurate senses. She can hear, smell, taste, touch and feel more than an any human, she can detect specific smells thus being able to locate their origin. Cass' ability to remember smells enables her to identify any person she has spent at least five minutes with by smell alone, no matter how he or she might try to camouflage his or her natural odor. Her sense of hearing enables her to hear a person's heartbeat at a distance of over twenty feet, or people whispering on the other side of a standard wall. She can control her hearing acuity, mentally blocking out specific sounds like her own breathing and heartbeat, all ambient sounds to a normal human level of perception, or all sounds but a particular sound she is concentrating upon. By listening, feeling and/or smelling, Cassie can tell whether a person is lying by sweat, changes in body temperature and heartbeats. In any event, with this "ability", Cassie synthesizes a very close analogue of three-dimensional 360% human sigh.
Cassie has no obvious "superpowers". She merely has her strong will, peak-human physical strength, and finely-honed sense of timing and precision. She possesses genius intelligence and has an extremely unpredictable way of thinking. She can make a weapon out of common objects and often uses her mind to win fights. Cassie was trained to become a gifted athlete, being able to jump roof top to roof top, scale tall buildings and land on her feet without ever making a sound.
Cass is well versed in street combat, gymnastics, boxing and even Kung-Fu. She is also extremely stoic, having indifference to pain and discomfort. She is also extremely intelligent showing a marked affinity for detective work (including intimidation). She is also skilled at lock picking.
Equipment:Cass currently wields two expandable batons, a multi-purpose cane that has many different modes. Its initial form is two short sticks held together by an extendable cable. It can be configured into a nunchaku-like weapon to a manrikigusari (a long rope/chain weapon with two weights on its ends), dual short batons which can be wielded in a pair, bo-staff, or even a cable with a grappling hook. The weapon can also be adjusted to combine both batons into a bo-staff. The weapon is held by a holster on the side of Mysterious Stranger's left leg.
Appearance:Cassie stands 5'6" tall, with fair complexion and an square face. Due to blindness, her eyes are milk-white. She has a perky nose with a relatively broad tip and bridge. Cassie's mouth fits perfectly on her face size, not being small or large. Her lips are slightly fleshy and the upper lip has a pointed appearance. She has a cleft chin. Cassie is athletic, weighing 123 lbs. She has scars scattered throughout her body. She has shoulder-leght blonde hair.
Costume:In Mysterious Stranger's patrols, she wears a striped purple business suit, similarly colored leather gloves, a grayed scarf, and heavily unpolished elevator shoes. On top of that, she wears a brown trench coat with a matching fedora hat that has a light purple stripe. However, Mysterious Stranger's most defining feature of her costume is her color-changing blindfold/mask (the colors continually shift in response to heat and pressure), covering all her head.
Personality:Cassie is focused, strong-willed, cautious and above all a discreet person. She's a woman of no emotions when she is needed—most of this thanks to her training. The years of hard training made her a person of few words as hers combat skills were honed in what is today and she was forced to set her charisma aside. Her shallow personality is accompanied by egoistical thoughts of her choices. She can be cynical, paranoid, rude and even stubborn. She's a vigilante, she doesn't follow rules.
