That said, you can't apply as the Avengers or Justice League, it simply isn't the same.

@Lord Wraith

What about the Young Avengers? I don't plan on playing the team because I really only want to play as Stature, obviously without the GL Ring as that was just the concept of the world and everything would be better written out, but if it was allowed and no one was to play any of the other members I'd be very tempted to do so as it's my favorite Marvel team.

Alex

---

Well, he was late, and why you may be asking was Alex late? Because he had somehow succeeded at getting lost. Even when using the GPS on his phone. That would be the kind of thing that'd seem impossible but in his defense, the phone kept glitching out trying to get him to walk down a road that didn't even exist. The fact that he hadn't left his room unless it was for class didn't seem to help either. The whole day he had been avoiding the members of his floor as he knew they were planning a party.

On that note, it's not that he was late to the party. He was late for skipping the party. Alex wanted to get back to his dorm before the party started leaving them about half of the pizza he was carrying as his contribution. As he was standing outside the building with his local restaurant pizza and 2-liter mountain dew, he could already hear the music. Great. There's no chance of me sneaking past is there. He started thinking back to how his twin sister told him he'd need to at least try to make friends. Why was that necessary though? He chose Alaska because he expected there to be fewer people. But there were more people at this university than he had expected. He also had the unfortunate circumstance of one of his roommates being overbearingly friendly. It was kind of annoying because Alex didn't want to be rude, but he had to admit the guy was alright. If he decided to socialize then he'd probably talk to him.

Resigning to his fate of eventually being dragged into the party he began climbing the stairs with the music becoming more prominent with each step. Once he arrived at his floor he realized he had no free hands to open the door. He tried pushing it but the thing wouldn't budge. He kicked it a few times hoping someone would hear but with the music that was doubtful. Groaning he stuck the 2-liter under his arm and reached for the door when he heard a scream. At first, he thought that it may have come from the other side of the door but he eventually realized it had come from a little bit above. He quickly put down the pizza and soft drink to begin running up the stairs when someone exited into the stairwell looking like she had come to the same conclusion as he had.

Interest/Hobbies
Writing/Telling Stories - Even though Alex tends to be more logical, he has been bitten by the creativity bug. Stories are the main outlet of his creativity.

Gaming (Both Video and Bored form) - As most of his family is highly competitive and his older sister preferred to play games over sports, Alex got into this recreational activity as a way to compete with her as well. Over time he has gotten pretty good but she still squashes him in any game. Something he plans to rectify.

Baseball - With regards to the boys of the Woulfe clan, they all are baseball fanatics. The oldest Woulfe son even played the sport professionally for two years before being injured. Alex does not have the same talent as his brother but he is an above average Catcher.

Acting - At the age of eight Alex just happened to join a Missoula Children's Theatre production and instantly fell in love. Ever since he has enjoyed it. He isn't the greatest but keeping up with this hobby will help him when directing.

Hiking - Alex just likes the solitude of nature. It's also a great place to be lost in thought to come up with stories.

YouTube - Alex has a gaming YouTube channel where he has approximately 250k subs although the large majority of them come from collabing with his sister's far more popular channel.

Belief
"There is good in everyone but the bad always tends to be the most prominent. Stick by those who stick with you through your bad in order to see the good."

Drive
Acknowledgement

Fear
Being lonely and forgotten

Regret
The things which lead up to and the subsequent breakup with his girlfriend last year.

Secret
One night he was dragged to a party. Someone had spiked the non-alcoholic beverages so Alex ended up drunk. Everyone did. His girlfriends twin sister liked him and as she was drunk tried something stupid and succeeded. Alex’s first time was with her and over the next few weeks tensions rose as neither wanted to spill the beans so eventually Alex and his girlfriend had an argument and broke up. The secret is still kept between the two.

Intellect [3]
Alex is fairly intelligent. It's not due to studying or reading a lot it is more or less because his thought process usually tends on the more logical side as opposed to the emotional side.

Social [1]
Alex is not at all good at things social. He merely pretends at times, but only if he really feels like it which doesn't happen often. He would always prefer to stay at the edge of a group listening and watching. He also has his fair share of walls built up that would be difficult to break through. One thing about him is how he naturally puts off a cold and standoffish demeanor. Due to this most people feel uneasy talking to him and he does have the tendency to be very blunt and if he cracks any jokes they tend to be sarcasm or dry humor so most people just assume he's being rude.

Nerve [5]
Alex is nowhere near to being a coward. He also rarely worries as in his mind, what happens happens and there is nothing he can do to change it once it has happened. He also comes up with some logical conclusion to anything. None of that paranormal mumbo jumbo from him. And as someone who does acting and Youtube, he most certainly can't let nerves get to him. He also has no fear of personal injury. Despite his uncaring attitude, if someone is in danger or hurt he will tend to run headfirst into danger to help. He feels that if someone got hurt and he could've done something to help and didn't then it was partially his fault. With great power comes great responsibility? Any power you have to do something carries responsibility.

Endurance [2]
Alex can definitely take a punch. That's only because he has a high pain tolerance. Other than that all he's really good for is his ability to do a mad sprint when playing baseball.

Awareness [2]
When it comes to the feelings and emotions of other Alex can be clueless. Largely because he has his own predisposition to how he expects people to act based on what he knows. He is, however, a people watcher so he is slightly ok at picking up various details others might not. However, he may not make the correct conclusion based off of these details due to his more logical nature.

Resources [0]
Alex is from a fairly large family so they never really had much money to go around other than for the necessities. Nowadays, money is becoming easier to get a hold of as the kids are leaving the nest but Alex doesn't want to just be given money without working for it so he is just barely here.

@Strange Rodent I guess I got confused by what you meant when you said that you’d let me get away with more in regards to nerve. I’ll fix it in the mornin’ but for now thanks for bearing with my personal intelligence of -1 lol.

@Strange Rodent Yeah I wasn't entirely sure how to do the stats so I did the descriptions and sorta guessed the numbers. Would bumping Int down one and bumping Soc up one work? Or would it be better to add more to Soc leaving it at 1 and instead raising Nrv?

I know you said that y'all were and that there hasn't been anything said about not accepting people anymore, but I felt the need to ask as that was a while back and either way being born and raised in the south the law dictates I ask anyway in order to be polite. (Not really, I just wanted to come up with something random to say so that this wasn't just another run of the mill, "Y'all still accepting?" as I usually do.)

Romance Dawn - A One Piece RP

The Blaring Silence

"Don't underestimate me because I'm a 'LITTLE' girl!"

Name: Adelinde Dey; prefers to be called Ade; Has received a moniker of The Blaring Silence
Age: 17
Gender: Female

Race: Human
Height & Weight: 5'7" & 109 Pounds

Personality: A timid but very passionate person. Ade is strong-willed when it comes to certain things. She is stubborn, and it seems as if no one can get her to change her mind without her fighting back. Ade is also a very caring individual that desires to help as many people as possible. She is not a very good liar, but her secrets are not easy to crack open. One thing that will cause her to break away from her timidness is if someone threatens or insults someone she is close to or cares about. Especially her younger sister.

Bounty: B 3,500,000
She fought off the Marines as they were trying to capture her, her friend, and the pirates doing quite a bit of damage. The main basis of her bounty is how much of a threat she is with her DF power.

Origin Story: Adelinde was born to a large but seemingly normal family on a windy fall night. She had a loving father and mother, two much older brothers, and an older sister, Eliza. Years later it would seem like the spirit of the wind had seeped into who the young girl was. At a young age, Adelinde continuously got into trouble as her desire for adventure and to explore the world kept driving her to go farther and farther away from home. She would often get in trouble because of this. One day her older sister left to see the world, the young spirit begged Eliza to bring many stories home to tell.

While waiting for her sister to come back home, a new member joined the clan by the name of Elysia that Ade instantly grew attached to. A little sister of her own for her to tell stories to and be friends with, and when Eliza got home they'd all have so much fun together. Unfortunately, after Elysia's birth, one bad thing after another happened. Their mother died two months later due to never really recovering from the birth. The oldest daughter never came home and the paper reported the worst. That she was dead. Then their father died in a hunting accident. The next few years were rough for the remainders of the family. Then the pirates came.

A group of strong pirates showed up on the small island and instantly began terrorizing the locals. Some tried to fight back but were either easily killed or captured. Adelinde was one of the later. Because of the fact that Adelinde refused to give up the fight, the captain had her brothers hurt but the sadistic monster wasn't done. He took two Devil Fruit's which he had collected and force-fed one to Adelinde and the other to someone else.

He then used his own power to create a makeshift battlefield and commanded them to kill the other. As a way to threaten them into compliance, he had his men aim their weapons at the populace. But this act caused the two to panic more than anything else and they each accidentally unleashed their newly acquired powers at unnecessary levels. All the sound within the area seemed to vanish and Adelinde appeared to be screaming but no noise came. That's when the pirate captain's ears began bleeding and he fell over. The other fighter took this opportunity to attack the remaining pirates just as the Marines arrived. However, the Marines mistook the two as pirates and attacked them along with the actual pirates. All parties scattered but as they were running away Ade saw the other fighter shot down but she kept running.

She successfully got away but soon after had a bounty set on her head. Fearing that her presence in her hometown would constantly bring danger she decided the safest thing to do would be to leave. She left behind a note as she couldn't bring herself to say goodbye in person. Not long afterward she came across Sunny and his crew. At first, she didn't trust them as they are pirates but through some random misadventure she grew to trust them and joined the crew.

Abilities:

• Onsei Onsei Fruit - The fruit which Adelinde ate was the Onsei Onsei Fruit which turned her into a sound wave person. Because of this, she is more susceptible to blunt attacks which cause her body to vibrate rapidly depending on the force. But a semi-counteractive effect is that anything that would merely glance her is seemingly deflected due to the constant vibrations of her body. It will still cause her to lose a little control on the slight contact but makes it where direct attacks are more or less necessary to actually damage her. As of now, she doesn't have any real control over her abilities other than she can reduce or increase the noise that she produces as well as altering the way some things sound. She has not been able to replicate what she did when she originally ate the fruit.
• Cooking - After her mother died Adelinde became the person that did most of the cooking for her family. At first, she wasn't the best but it didn't take long for her to become quite a talented chef.
• Athletic - As the wild child she was, Adelinde constantly was running around, climbing random things, and other various childish adventuring. She is far from a physically fit specimen but she is definitely more fit than your average person.

Inventory: She mostly has bland inconspicuous dresses. Her signature clothing item of choice is her eye-catching red cloak which was a gift from Eliza before she had left for her adventure.

Others: Main reasoning as to why I didn't put much under the DF is because of how powerful it could potentially get and because it wasn't that long ago that she received the power and is still trying to get used to the changes it made to her biology.

Here she is. The potentially powerful Devil Fruit user so she is not really exceptional anywhere else. Jk that's just who she is.
