Augmented Machine Mobile Armor: A Gundam and Armored Core-inspired Mecha RP

Ugh...super late for me posting this...need sleep now but @VitaVitaAR, here's my final work though I think some formatting is needed.

Alien Angel

Name: "Angela" (Doesn't remember her real full name.)
Callsign: "Alien Angel" but formely was called "Grendel".
Age: 21 (?)
Gender: Female

Appearance:
https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/legendsofthemultiuniverse/images/f/ff/Mai_Kobayashi.png/revision/latest?cb=20211017102426
Standing 5'10" with an unknown weight though looks slight toned in muscle.

Personality: Rather Stoic at times. Usually talks in a monotone voice helped by the pilot helmit she wears most of the time. While she talks to whoever is employing her for a job and asks questions, those are the only real times you can get a "read" on her.

Outside of that, she tends to be distant and aloof unless she has to follow some "order" from her employer or anyone within the EINHERJAR ranks. Due to trauma from her past, she tends to keep her distance from others. Even more so towards anyone wearing "lab coats" or anything similar looking.

But it's said that there ARE possibly one or more individuals she does talk to normally but in private.

Skills:

AUG Pilot/Foot Soldier - Put basically, Angela not only knows how to pilot AUG's but also knows a combination of hand-to-hand combat, knife fighting and gunplay or CQC. Even outside of a AUG, Angela knows how to defend herself.

Mechanic - Because of her distant nature, Angela also knows her way around basic maintenance of just about any AUG or at least ones she's studied long enough since she doesn't trust anyone else with her own AUG. One of her earliest of odd jobs with EINHERJAR was helping other merc's AUG's upkeeping from time to time.

Minor Healing Factor - Perhaps her most mysterious skill, Angela's body seems to recover from injuries quicker than your average human. Though enough damage or critical wounds to either the head or her heart could kill her or so she was told from her past...

Brief History: Angela herself wished she knew why things happened when it did. What was she doing? When did things just become...complicated? Who was she? Why did she do what she was told?

To this day, Angela's questions just continued.

For as far back as she could remember, most of her time was spent inside a human sized tube of water. Constantly being watched by people in white lab coats. Then, when she was let out of said tubes to do physical activities and other forms of exercise that included training in combat and piloting AUG's. But then...the needles. The experiments...but she took it. She didn't mind because she, put simply, wasn't "self aware" at the time. Pain quickly went away for her. There were a few others like her too it seemed but she couldn't even remember names.

Then, she remembered how paniked the people were one day...they said something about an army advancing. That they were out of time...that they needed to deploy the experiments.

That's when her and three others were immedately told one thing: defend the LTS army. Kill anyone that were "marked as UEC". Immedately dressed in a pilot uniform and given a custom Mobile Armor, her squad were then deployed into the war front.

That's when things were becoming clearer. She was one of a few "test pilots" supporting the LTS war effort. Though even in the water tank, she did remember hearing one scientist say that the LTS themselves were not aware of said lab. That they were to simply deploy "quietly" and just assist when ordered. To never show your face or remove any part of your uniform to anyone.

Thus how it went when the war raged. Here and there, Angela just fought when and where she was told. Never question her own orders. Just fight...survive...destory...live.

Then...the day she changed...the day she was deployed to Bifrost...the sheer scale of the battles triggered something in her...at the time, she couldn't tell what but that was her first experience with an emotion.

Horror...seeing people's bodies outside of a mech...then nothing as a stray shot knocked down her Mobile Armor...darkness...then remembering someone opening her damaged cockpit...seeing someone...

That was when she first met a UEC pilot callsign "Record" but said to simply call him "Jake". A survivor of the Bifrost battle and formerly a "Recon" operative, he was merely looking for survivors in the aftermath of that battle but also had a given assignment at the time. He knew about the "lab" Angela came from...that her squad was gone, possibly all dead...but so where both armies.

One thing led to another and Angela followed the other former UEC and LTS pilots along with the other citizens of Bifrost. Things were clearer but not crystal thanks to the former soldiers on both sides. She was experimented on to be something called an "Esper" but instead had her minor healing factor. Some UEC pilots had heard rumors about her and even LTS pilots had said the only reason those experiments happened was because the UEC was also doing something similar though not to an extreme.

"But that's what war does Angela...it brings out the worst in people", one person from Bifrost had told her.

After some time, Angela finally pulled herself together to SOME extent that she agreed to do work for the EINHERJAR no matter how "odd job" some of their assignments were. Now she had a new "order" or perhaps a "personal" one.

Her own identity. Who was she? Was she anyone specific or just a thing raised in a tube?

"Ghost"

Augmented Armor: Modified GM Sniper Mark 2
AUG Name: Ghost
AUG Appearance:
https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41qpkmNl29L._AC_.jpg

Armaments:
Bolt Action Sniper Rifle
Shield
Two Beam Sabers

"Ghost" system - Besides the basic weapons above, this is what sets it apart from other GM's. It can "hide" it's presence from just about any form of detection systems and radars. Put basically, any combat system that uses homing, lock-on or any form of aim-assisting weapons systems will be unable to do so because it thinks there's nothing to target. Put simply, it comes down to the enemy pilots skill to actually hit the "Ghost" since you can still physically see it.

Specifications: The GM itself being one of the earliest of Mobile Armors, this custom armor was designed mostly for either stealth and long range support. This GM Sniper II also fairs well at close range with it's shield and beam sabers making it a very well-rounded armor. It can even use other rifle types outside of it's default lineup giving it versatility. But even being a custom, it's still considered a "Mobile Armor" class rather than an "Augumented Armor" class. So while the Ghost is a step above other Mobile Armors, it's at a disadvantage against Augumented Armors. Even more so if the enemy pilot is skilled and not over reliant on lock-on assisted weaponry and certain radar systems.

Augmented Machine Mobile Armor: A Gundam and Armored Core-inspired Mecha RP

Hey, going to have to delay this a bit, I've not been feeling very well and I just don't feel up to posting an adequate OP tonight. Sorry! It'll probably go up in the next two days.

@VitaVitaAR

It's alright. Honestly, I thought it was because of me since I had all sorts of trouble with character updates. And sadly, it got worse since I threw together two characters instead of the "one" requirement plus still no mech.

Still, I better at least show my updates here. Again, sorry Vita.

Horror...seeing people's bodies outside of a mech...then nothing as a stray shot knocked down her Mobile Armor...darkness...then remembering someone opening her damaged cockpit...seeing a "child"...no a soldier...pilot.

That was when she first met a UEC pilot callsign "Record" but said to simply call him "Jake".

She was experimented on to be something called an "Esper" but instead had her minor healing factor. Jake only heard rumors but started finding pieces of evidence about the lab but then too late that he realized the LTS weren't even aware of it's presence.

"But that's what war does Angela...it brings out the worst in people", Jake had said.

After some time, Angela finally pulled herself together to SOME extent that she agreed to do work for the EINHERJAR with Jake being her "handler" as to avoid physical presence. Now she had a new "order" or perhaps a "personal" one.

D.J.

Name: "Jake" but real name "Jackson Armstrong"
Callsign: "D.J." but formerly "Record" of the UEC military.
Age: Refuses to reveal but appears to be Late 20's.
Gender: Male
Appearance:
https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/advancewars/images/e/ed/Awds-jake.png/revision/latest?cb=20190327203330
Standing 6'2" and a normal build for a body.

Personality: Jake actually has two parts of a personality. When in a casual environment, he can be social for one who's living was military and piloting AUG's. His love for music shows too since he's never without some form of a headset. While for comms, he also uses it for listening to music when the free time presents itself. Likeable a social when needed, he gets along easily if you give him the time.

The other part, though, is when he's on duty, work or just plain combat. He's the definition of "slacker to soldier" in a heartbeat. When it's time to take something seriously, he does. He voice sounding more serious than friendly and his body language changing to that of a trained soldier rather than relaxed. There's a time and place for everything to Jake. His personality included.

Skills:

Recon - Stealth. Perceptive. Information Gathering. General combat. Jake was train for more sensitive work rather than an all-out fight. For him, intelligence data is everything when it comes to mission success.

Mechanic - Jake also knows his way around AUG's in general. Give him some blueprints and other information on said AUG and he'll help repair or perform maintenance. This was one of his earliest jobs with EINHERJAR.

Field Medic - While not the best pilot, Jake made up for it from his mother side at being a field medic. Be it physical or even "mental" wounds, Jake has both good medical practices and good "bedside" manners to help heal anyone to the best of his ability.

Brief History: Before he went by the simple name "Jake" and callsign "D.J.", Jackson Armstrong aka "Record" came from a long line of a military family. Many who had served some time within the UEC.

At the time, Jake's father was a proud ACE AUG pilot while his mother was a field medic. Both having a solid career and even the trust of many soldiers who happened to have the good fortune of either serving under them or being treated by them. Jackson, though trained early for such a lifestyle, struggled to meet up to such expectations.

But that's when those higher ups noted a talent for Jackson Armstrong. His ability to use stealth, understand information quickly and even pick up and operate medical equipment allowed Jackson to have a place within the UEC. They had plenty of pilots so they decided to see if he could live up to another form of work.

Thus he was given a position within the military has a "black ops" operative.

Despite the dangers such a position brought and even some concern from his parents, Jackson did so with pride. Usually going behind enemy lines as a "civilian", he merely did the basic things. Sometimes, simply watching normal television and reporting on how other nations, colonies or politicians thought about the UEC through news outlets in general gave them a rough idea on how to approach certain situations. At least, that's how Jackson saw it.

But that changed one day when Jackson started hearing rumors from one colony he was stationed to. Something about a possible uprising...and a name he heard: Anthen Nilsk. Soon, media outlets were saying how quickly he was gaining political favor from the outer colonies. But Jackson woundered if he was the reason why there were so much corruptions from different sources like from several corporations.

Then came the terror attacks. One of which Jackson nearly avoided when he was simply going around a shopping mall of all places when a bomb had gone off. Thankfully, he didn't push his luck and quickly evac'ed out of there.

Reporting his concerns about this, his superior had told him that they were looking into it. Though to Jackson, it didn't really feel that way...either that or they weren't taking it seriously enough. Not even he could tell from his end but he saw all the warning signs. The UEC was losing it's grip on the Outer Colonies.

Then came Lemnos...led by now Prime Minister Anthen Nilsk.

Jackson then started getting some more dangerous assignments. One being to investigate Lemnos. Given new identities to work with to keep moving about undetected, Jackson began his mission. During of which, he hit on something big. There was possibly "illegal experimentation" being conducted on breeding "Espers" going on. Jackson heard of the so called "mind readers" but considered it a rumor without evidence. Regardless, if such a thing was taking place, it needed to be shut down. Or at least, find evidence of it's existance and report it's location.

Eventually, one lead led him to Bifrost...and that was the moment his eyes were opened on what "war" does. He had tracked down a scientist who was supposedly managing "test pilots" to assist the LTS war efforts. Jackson had tracked him to an underground bunker with other civilians hiding from the sheer chaos of the fighting.

And during all that chaos...the scientist came clean...before said bunker was hit hard enough that part of a roof cave in and, perhaps in a moment of irony, crushed the scientist only.

And that's when he remembered something his uncle once told him when he was much younder.

"Jackson...don't worry about our family name...miliary life isn't for everyone...for one, when war happens...well...let's just say it brings out the worst in people."

And after the battles in Bifrost were over, he saw it first hand. Although painful, he turned his back on the UEC and stopped contacting his superior. He didn't want to but after everything the scientist told him, he couldn't even tell WHO to trust anymore.

He then joined up with the locals on Bifrost with recovery and that's when he tracked down one of those "test pilots" from the lab he was tracking.

One thing led to another and Jackson even dropped his full name. No longer worthy of it, he now goes by the simple name "Jake" callsign "D.J.".

Because he also learned something else...in war, the very first casualty...was "truth".

And now for Jake, he was going to find that truth.

Augmented Machine Mobile Armor: A Gundam and Armored Core-inspired Mecha RP

Ok then...I have this character but man I think this is darker than my own screen name. It's still a WIP and I don't even have the mech part yet but I figured I show you this character so far just to see if I went too far or it just sucks -_-'. Sorry if the format is bad too but like I said, WIP.

Name: "Angela" (Doesn't remember her real full name.)
Callsign: Alien Angel
Age: 21 (?)
Gender: Female

Appearance: A rather beautiful but at the same time, haunting body standing 5'10" with an unknown weight though looks slight toned in muscle. No longer looking even human, she now looks like an "alien" of sorts with a combination of white and pink skin with wild pink hair but normal blue human eyes (think Final Fantasy 6 Terra Brandford in her Trance/Morph form though minus the claws on her hands and feet). Not many have seen her like this due to the fact that she constantly wears either a full body suit or a AUG suit, both with helmit.

Personality: Rather Stoic at times. Usually talks in a monotone voice helped by the pilot helmit she wears most of the time. While she talks to whoever is employing her for a job and asks questions, those are the only real times you can get a "read" on her.

Outside of that, she tends to be distant and aloof unless she has to follow some "order" from her employer or anyone within the EINHERJAR heirachy. Due to trama from her past, she tends to keep her distance from others. Even more so towards anyone wearing "lab coats" or anything similar looking.

But it's said that there ARE possibly one or more individuals she does talk to normally but in private.

Minor Healing Factor - Perhaps her most mysterious skill, Angela's body seems to recover from injuries quicker than your average human. Though enough damage or critical wounds to either the head or her heart could kill her or so she was told from her past...

Brief History: Angela herself wished she knew why things happened when it did. What was she doing? When did things just become...complicated? Who was she? Why did she do what she was told?

To this day, Angela's questions just continued.

For as far back as she could remember, most of her time was spent inside a human sized tube of water. Constantly being watched by people in white lab coats. Then, when she was let out of said tubes to do physical activites and other forms of exercise that included training in combat and piloting AUG's. But then...the needles. The experiments...but she took it. She didn't mind because she, put simply, wasn't "self aware" at the time. Pain quickly went away for her. There were a few others like her too it seemed but she couldn't even remember names nor if they even looked normal or...something else.

Then, she remembered how paniked the people were one day...they said something about an army advancing. That they were out of time...that they needed to deploy the experiments.

That's when her and three others were immedately told one thing: defend the LTS army. Kill anyone that were "marked as UEC". Immedately dressed in a pilot uniform and given a custom Mobile Armor, her squad were then deployed into the war front.

That's when things were becoming clearer. She was one of a few "test pilots" supporting the LTS war effort. Though even in the water tank, she did remember hearing one scientist say that the LTS themselves were not aware of said lab. That they were to simply delpoy "quietly" and just assist when ordered. To never show your face or remove any part of your uniform to anyone. To only go by her callsign...Alien Angel.

Thus how it went when the war raged. Here and there, Angela just fought when and where she was told. Never question her own orders. Just fight...survive...destory...live.

Then...the day she changed...the day she was deployed to Bifrost...the sheer scale of the battle trigger something in her...at the time, she couldn't tell what but that was her first experience with an emotion.

Horror...seeing people's bodies outside of a mech...then nothing as a stray shot knocked down her Mobile Armor...darkness...then remembering someone opening her damaged cockpit...seeing a "child"...no a soldier...pilot.

That was when she first met a UEC pilot callsign "DJ" but said to simply call him "Jake". A survivor of the Bifrost battle and formerly a "Recon" operative, he was merely looking for survivors in the aftermath of that battle but also had a given assignment at the time. He knew about the "lab" Angela came from and knew about her "appearance"...that her squad was gone, possibly all dead...but so where both armies.

One thing led to another and Angela followed the former UEC pilot Jake for whatever days she had left since even he had enough of the war. Things were clearer but not crystal thanks to Jake. She was experimented on to be something called an "Esper" but turned into something different. Jake only heard rumors but started finding pieces of evidence about the lab but then too late that he realized the LTS weren't even aware of it's presence.

"But that's what war does Angela...it brings out the worst in people", Jake had said.

After some time, Angela finally pulled herself together to SOME extent that she agreed to do work for the EINHERJAR with Jake being her "handler" as to avoid physical presence. Now she had a new "order" or perhaps a "personal" one.

Augmented Machine Mobile Armor: A Gundam and Armored Core-inspired Mecha RP

Hi. Haven't been on here in a long while but didn't really see anything that I'm used to RPing in...till I saw this anyway ^_^

I just started reading the OOC's here but is there any room to join here?

Advent of the Dawn —A Mecha Musume/Tokusatsu-Inspired RP

@DarkRecon: We're still open, but honestly, if you're looking for something directly analogous to Monster Hunter or mecha series (e.g. GaoGaiGar, Gundam, etc.;), then this RP might not necessarily be the right one for you. Of course, I could probably state more clearly if I knew what exactly you might expect/want, so... Hey, I'm all ears for that.

Though, I suppose it does make sense to clarify that characters can be whichever, it's just that the given trend of the cast seemed to be leaning female (and given the mecha musume bit in the title, I suppose that makes sense anyways).

@PKMNB0Y

Ok then. Just curious about those parts ^_^

As for a character, this is what I have though keep in mind it's a "first attempt" sort of thing. The other problem is that I haven't decided on a Chi-Mechframe yet. Actually, I thought about him wearing full mech armor like the "Weissritter" from SRW and a long range support kind of unit but when compared to the other accepted character types, I wasn't sure if that'll fly with you.

At any rate, here's what I have thus far for a character:

Name: "Jake Armstrong" (Doesn't know his real name.)

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Stands around 6'2".

Personality: Jake personifies the typical "serious" and "soldier" type. Despite having a memory issue about his past, he always respects his superiors. He even talks in a "monotone" voice but on occassion has spoken normally if ordered to. A lone wolf type, he tends to keep to himself unless addressed.

History: Not much is known of the person that is "Jake Armstrong". His own name itself is just for IDing him. A name he just decided on a whim when told to give a name to ID himself. He doesn't remember his real name nor his past.

Though then again, from what is known, there are those that perhaps suggest that perhaps he best not remember.

From what is said, Jake was first found but other refugee's in some abandoned apartment buildings in the Bronx, New York area in the west of what remains of the USA. That was just after the Warped attack. Said refugee's were actually surprised that there were any survivors in the area but at the time, they didn't think much of Jake's circumstances.

But one thing Jake did remember was a certain creature crawling up his chest...towards his face...then darkness.

It got to a point where he rarely said a word to anyone. Not even about said "creature". Even trying to distance himself from the people that had saved him. Hell, he even tried killing himself but to his surprise, the other survivors prevented him from doing so. For better or worse, Jake was looked after by very strong willed survivors.

STill, he went through his days as if he were a zombie. Even in relief camps and military bases set up for any survivors of the Warped, he was always the one in that empty corner. Just sitting there. Though sometimes, he could be seen with a headset listening to music or some handheld gaming device.

Then one day, during a stay in a military base, a field medic wanted to give him a general physical as per requirement for any survivors staying at the shelter. Jake quietly complied, not caring whatever happened as a result.

It was there that the military became aware of Jake's "health problem" as they put it.

"...sign my death warrant then...", Jake had said, catching on to what they mean.

That's when the Commanding Officer of said base then gave Jake an offer. Become a living guinea pig and be given a reason to live. Harsh perhaps but Jake didn't care.

It was sometime afterwards during the testing, Chi-mech piloting and even military training that Jake had heard surviving nations were now scrambling for unique individuals like himself that "survived infection" from the Warped or Echidina some others said. As well as some seperate organization called "Horizon" looking to recruit such individuals. US military, though, made sure that Jake himself was exclusive to the US military. Even with the Warped, politics were politics it would seem. It didn't matter to him though. However, he did suspect that mindset would cause trouble...trouble that he may have to face and "clean up".

But then something different happened...his CO was shipping him out as part of some "good will" program.

"Normally, I'd wouldn't but we got to make sure we don't look like pricks for once...so...pack your bags Cadet Armstrong. Your going to Japan."

Skills: Despite seeming to have a death wish, Jake is surprisingly strong willed. He could take a lot of abuse both physical and mental and keep going if needed and within reason. Because of his military training, Jake also knows CQC or Close Quarters Combat and even outside of a Chi-Frame, knows how to handle firearms and even SOME basic first aid procedures. He's also perceptive, usually spotting things that others may miss. As such, he's a "Recon" expert: usually sent out first to survey a situation for the rest of his team before taking action with said team.

Advent of the Dawn —A Mecha Musume/Tokusatsu-Inspired RP

...not often I come onto RPGuild...been awhile too. Only reason I saw this was because it had "Mecha" in the title -__-'

Still, the concept does remind me of Monster Hunter which I'm familiar with. Still, is there any room left? Actually, are you looking for "Female" characters only or can I make a "Male"? Figured if I'm allowed to join, I should try to balance out the cast of characters thus far.

《 H.E.R.O. 2064 》

Well...still here...somehow. For those reading, I maybe gone for a bit yet again though...got a storm coming in the east coast and I don't know if I'll lose power or not. But because of my job and the stress it's been building on me, I don't even know if I can make time for this now.

I apologize if I'm just going into a rant but I haven't been active either in here or in the discord. But at the same time, I need something to keep me creative. And doing this help over video games sometimes believe it or not ^_^.

Anyways, this might be my last attempt at making characters for this but here's my latest attempt. There's two now. Another attempt at Crimson Setsuka and the other, now veteran hero K Nine formely known as Alpha of Hero One. I don't know when I'll read a response to this so please be patient with me -__-'.

----------

Crimson Setsuka

Crimson Setsuka

"...I'm here to help, NOT replace..."

[ NAME ]

Unknown

[ HERO IDENTITY ]

Crimson Setsuka

[ NICKNAME/ALIAS ]

Setsuka

[ AGE ]

Unknown

[ GENDER ]

Machine (Female Design)

[ AFFILIATION ]

Vigilante

[ APPEARANCE ]

Long blonde hair. Light colored skin and eyes with red pupils. Stands around 5'9" with an unconfirmed weight. More often than not, wearing a ninja garb of some colors. Usually Red if possible. She also has a garb can actually change color. Even her own apperance can be modified but that requires resources and preparation.

[ PERSONALITY TRAITS ]

Although a machine and mostly quiet, it has surprisingly good people skills when not on mission or when necessary to talk to others. Always learning and being polite unless threatened. When threatened or on mission, usually talks in robotic terms unless around other team members.

[ BIO ]

At first glance, one would or perhaps COULD expect Crimson Setsuka to be a normal human female with the strengh, agility and grace of a normal human athlete or perhaps past normal human limits. So many would be shocked to learn that Setsuka is actually a machine with an advanced Artifical Intelligence or A.I. for short in her metal body.

There isn't a whole lot to say about Setsuka. Even her origin story is a bit shrouded. But she was actually first discovered by the two former vigilante's "Alien Angel" and "Firewall" from the "Infinite" group.

Even after the death of the Infinite leader "Red Tail" during the Zero Organization events, Alien Angel and Firewall had kept up the fight as much as they could before settling down for a bit one year after the fall of ZERO. Always helping. Always hunting. Even for their own identities. Even about the mysterious Leftover blood in their veins. Despite their vigilante status, they both had a good life over the course of 31 years or so.

But it was 6 months from the present of this story where things changed.

Firewall had gotten wind of a possible lab hidden in, of all places, some abandoned apartment building's basement in the Bronx. Fearing that yet another group of mad scientist types were at it again, both she and Alien Angel went to investigate the following night.

Fully expecting to find "failed" splicing experiments or even new man made Leftovers, they instead found what looked liked a human sized capsule. It was being guarded by one scientist and a handful of thugs. After some listening in due to Firewall using a tiny remote control car with a "bug" in it, both learned that they were waiting for a "buyer" to show. And that the scientist was surprised how much said buyer was paying for a "failed lab rat".

That was more than enough for them to step in.

After dealing with the group and leaving them tied up, both opened the capsule. Inside, what looked liked a blonde haired woman was sleeping in the nude.

Then, said woman opened her eyes, red pupils looking at it's two visitors.

"...system online...", it said.

One thing led to another from there and the robot soon joined the two. Firewall herself thought that development for such "advanced" robots were only just starting to go around at the time but she didn't think she even see one herself this soon. Even more so with how advanced it's A.I. was. The robot itself didn't seem to remember much of her origin either. No serial number or any identification. Even with her best efforts it seemed this robot was not in any system. It didn't help either that they couldn't question the scientist nor his thugs since back up was showing. Some of which were robots themselves.

After getting to safety, the robot they helped tried to communicate with them about itself.

"...I was deemed "defective"...because I didn't "quietly" follow orders...because I wanted to learn...about the "human condition"...so I was "thrown out"...but the scientist felt he could make money off of me...I'm sorry...I don't know which electronic or corporate company threw me out...nor can I remember my creator..."

Both Alien Angel and Firewall, in a way, also knew what that felt like in their own ways. So both took it upon themselves to show her the world out there or as much of it as they could. Even though both knew the dangers of showing a machine how to lead a "normal" life.

"...don't worry...you both saved me...even if you are vigilantes...I will stay with you...even if I must help you fight..."

After some time, the robot gave itself a name with help from it's two new friends.

And so begins a story of Crimson Setsuka...a robot learning to be human...and learning about her origin and it's reason for it's existance.

| MISCELLANEOUS |

While Setsuka understands that she was possibly designed to be a "killing machine", she understands self control and thus only goes lethal if it's a last resort or is given no choice against a Human, Meta, Leftover or even machine opponent. Mysteriously, she isn't so hesitant against her own kind if said robots have deviated from their "prime directives" or simply have malfunctioned.

The following is information on the two "vigilante" individuals who follow Crimson Setsuka. When you see Setsuka, usually one or both of them aren't too far behind.

Alien Angel

Alien Angel. Also goes by her normal human name "Terra" but those close to her also call her "Angelia". Photos above show her from 31 years ago but not even she knows her true age or certain other personal information despite her "supports" best efforts. Even now, she doesn't look like she's aged much. Stands 5'8" and looks rather slim, human or transformed.

A survivor of illegal lab experimentation of splicing Leftover DNA with her human DNA, Alien Angel gain her super powers through horrible means. Managing to escape then joining with a vigilante group called "Infinite", Alien Angel started her hero work under that infamous name. Those around New York from police to criminals knew of a "Pink Leftover" flying the night skies back in her early days.

Then, both her and other members of Infinite came to Castleburg, quietly supporting the other heroes. Even more so, the group that Alpha/K Nine himself once joined.

After some years, Alien Angel began trying to find out her personal history once things in Castleburg had finally settled down. Even today, she doesn't know what kind of Leftover DNA runs through her veins but has learned to control and develop it to the point where she's officially labled a "A" Tier vigilante. Though rumors say that said DNA came from a rare but extinct Leftover. Though technically wanted by the law, she actually gets "hired" for work by other offical hero groups.

With "Infinite" disbanded due to it's leader's heroic sacrifice many decades ago, Alien Angel still goes from city to city, doing her part. Then her "support" told her about some new trouble starting in Castleburg yet again...

Firewall

Firewall. Hey amigo. No peeking...well...if you managed to get this far to even read this, your either the smartest being on the planet or just so dumb that reality itself bends to your whims...heh. Or you have a smiliar super power to mine. Regardless, your not going to get much out of me...well...maybe a little.

Well where to start...well even I don't know much about myself. My mind got so screwed up from lord only knows what during my stay in one of those labs...you know the ones. Highly illegal experimentation...even with Leftover DNA...the same DNA that pumped me up on...yep. I'm one of those survivors.

After some time though, I felt it was just time to check out. Once I saw what my powers could do...well...let's just say I take "Hacking" to levels that don't apply to normal means. After some bouncing around, I wound up with the "Infinite" vigiantes. I ain't normally a people person...even more so after those "lab coats" screwed me up for so long...but peeps like Alien Angel were just...fun to be around.

Afterwards, we just did our parts off record...but oh man...that whole mess with the ZERO organization 31 years ago...I'll tell ya, anyone in Castleburg who's still alive today probably has their own stories to tell about what they were doing...when all that went down...even more so with our old boss "Red Tail"...

Wow. Actually getting emotional...but yeah, I stand as a "support" for Alien Angel now. We just go around helping when we can and have some fun when we have down time. Course, being "officially" wanted does damper the fun sometimes but hey, I know how to keep low profile...probably why so many governments wanted to classify me as a "S" Tier threat...what? That I can hack anything and perhaps see someone's dirty laundry or skeletons in said someone's closet? Psh...politics.

Well I've said enough. I'm no troublemaker but it just seems like everyone WANTS to label me as one...so to those of you that label me...well...your lucky I still have to protect you...so when another troublemaker causes you ACTUAL trouble...you better hope I'm close by to bail you out...cya =^_^=

Abilities

[ RANKING ]

A

[ POWERS ]

In terms of powers, Crimson Setsuka doesn't really have anything that could be considered one. Other than being a robot that is. It's her intelligence and speed that makes her top tier and her ability to make gadgets to make up for her lack of any powers. While this requires prep time, she's never without a weapon on her. She also has help from "Firewall" sometimes using her power to make a weapon or two.

[ PHYSICAL STRENGTH ]
****------ 4/10
While she's stronger than your average human, her body didn't seemed designed for brute strength.

[ AGILITY ]
*********- 9/10
This, however, is where Setsuka is most dangerous. Supposedly, she's so quick that she can "Bullet Time" or move and/or react to sudden situations like bullets.

[ INTELLIGENCE ]
********** 10/10
But if speed doesn't cut it, it's her smarts that also help. With her own "Wi Fi" ability, she can also gather info using the internet in the heat of combat. Plus, she's very perceptive. She also can study an opponent and attempt to anticipate her opponents next move.

[ DESTRUCTIVENESS ]
*****----- 5/10
Truth be told, this could vary. On her own, Setsuke could do some damage to property but lacks the physical strength to do anything major like knock over buildings. Gadgets, though, can change this but she avoids any unnecessary damage.

[ LETHALITY ]
********-- 8/10
By far, this is the biggest mystery despite the 8 rating. With her speed, intelligence and even "stealth" based tactic's when necessary, Setsuka could be just as dangerous as a ninja that she dresses up as with a possibility to be a 10/10 threat. However, her avoidance on lethal force and need for gadgets and weapons puts this at odds, perhaps dropping her to 4/10 at lowest when unarmed. Depends on who she's fighting against.

[ ENDURANCE ]
******---- 6/10
Don't let this rating fool you. Yes, as a robot, Setsuka does have a battery that makes her last alot longer than a normal person and perhaps some meta's but it still as a limit. Another part of her design, as noted by "Firewall" so far, is her need to enter "sleep mode" to recover her energy. While incredibly high, fatigue or power failure is still possible. Plus, her body can be damaged by a strong enough blow.

[ EFFICACY ]
********-- 8/10
While very helpful, Setsuka does have some "human limitations" and weaknesses that can be exploited. Specific meta powers and/or weapons/gadgets can cause her problems for example unless she surprises her opponent first with her other strengths. Setsuka does perform well in a team though because of those strengths and can even give sage advice if anyone were to ask for info.

[ SKILLS ]

"Wi Fi" Scan - As stated in the rankings, Setsuka always has access to the internet unless she's in a "dead zone" where not even she can get a clear signal. With this, she can also scan anyone and anything within line of sight to gain personal information on said target. Sometimes if that even means "hacking" certain sources to retrieve such data.

Analyzing Combat - Setsuka can also observe her opponent to try to anticipate their next move. Though unlike other robots, she doesn't "overrely on numbers". Sometimes, she makes her own personal guesses if the opponent is being unpredictable enough.

Vision Modes - Setsuka also has a variety of vision modes. From X-Ray to Infared and even Sonar and Radar.

Wall Climbing - Basically, Pakour skills but Setsuka can also use "molecular attraction" on its feet to literraly walk up walls if she wanted to. Similar to what comic book spider-man can do.

Cloaking Garb - Setsuaka's garb is actually an enhanced piece of clothing that Firewall "upgraded" using her powers. Not only can it change colors but it can make her invisible. It's not perfect though. Infared and other methods still make her detectable.

[ EQUIPMENT ]

Anything it can invent or get her hands on or even things Firewall thinks she needs for a mission. Though she also carries a Katana.

H.E.R.O. One (Retired), Part Time Law Enforcer

[ APPEARANCE ]

He's no longer the young boy from 31 years ago. Underneath the uniform above, he still has short orange hair and brown eyes but there is some white hair mixed with the orange hair. Stands 6'3" and still looks to be in tip top shape with tanned colored skin.

[ PERSONALITY TRAITS ]

K Nine has come a long way from his days of being mostly quiet. Though he knows when to be serious, he also knows when to relax and just be normal. Though past experiences over the decades of hero work sometimes creep into his persona, usually making him act like a strict father taking care of his children.

[ BIO ]

31 Years ago...

Much is classified of the government trained hero named Alpha or K Nine in law enforcement circles. Why a super such as him was placed in a government trained program over, say, Hero One, is also a mystery in itself. It's said, though, that Alpha had come from a normal mother and father but both had jobs with the military. The father being a soldier and the mother a medic.

But for those who dig a bit into it, they would discover these general details.

Back in the day, a drug cartel was starting to make it's rounds in some of the major cities. It's said that this cartel was smuggling some new stuff to supervillians and it was so bad that Alpha's father was helping lead a squad at the time and they had tracked a shipment of the stuff to an abandoned building somewhere in New York. His team raided the place and secured both the drugs as well as the criminals guarding it. But what they didn't know about was that said criminals were being led by a secret supervillian behind the scene's.

And said supervillian wasn't happy.

The supervillian soon got information about Alpha's dad which led him to his home...at the time the supervillian showed, a young Alpha was with a babysitter. And when the supervillian was about to send a deadly message at his expense...he awakened to his powers. It's said that Alpha had launched an explosive wave of energy from his own body that did little structural damage to the home but badly injured the babysitter.

But it killed the supervillian. Records aren't clear but it's rumored that Alpha was only six years old at the time of that event and it traumaized him for life.

Afterwards, it's said that Alpha's parents did their best to help their son recover using their military connections. Soon, it led to him being transfered to private schools while growing up. But as the parents feared, the incident took it's toll on him. Sure, he got excellent grades and still managed to advance in his education but it left him isolated. Anti-social. It seemed as if he was afraid of others but in truth, he was afraid of hurting others...or worse.

And that's how it pretty much went till his highschool years. It was then that Alpha had made a request to train using his powers. His parents did note the lack of feeling he had when he made that request but saw in his eyes that he couldn't keep living his life like this. So, during whatever free time during his four years there, he trained with an unidentified military trainer to help manage his educational studies along with his powers.

But then, things took a turn when Alpha was "recruited" to be apart of a new team of superheros after his senior year graduation. The US Government wanted to have their own team under their command in case of "extreme circumstances" as they put it. Of course, Alpha's parents protested but Alpha had willingly agreed. Of course, due to the lack of trust between between the government and hero groups like H.E.R.O. and I.C.O.S.A., such a team would most likely be flagged and disbanded. So the group was field tested in secret.

It started off simple enough. Alpha was always sent within US broders to various cities to assist "normal" law enforcers like police and SWAT with any problems they may have. But everything took a bad turn one day when he and his team were sent to resolve a hostage crisis. A bank robbery had gone bad and a group of four masked gunmen had managed to force their way into a subway station. One of the criminals had managed to start up a subway train and got it moving till it was somewhere in between two subways stops in some random dark tunnel. Since it was reported that the criminals themselves were non-superpowered but had an unknown number of hostages, Alpha and his team were sent in as "SWAT" operators to help resolve the matter. It went smoothly till one of the four managed to escape the train after the team had secured the train and the other three gunmen with all the hostages alive and not harmed, litterally running for it down the dark tunnel. Alpha responded first and pursued and, to his surprise, the gunmen revealed himself to be a low level supervillian that was later I.D.ed as "Third Rail". An electicity user, he litterally lived up to his name and fought Alpha by manipulating the electrial energy from the third track rail and firing them at Alpha. Thanks to his aura though, Alpha was able to resist the attacks and was able to defeat him. Unfortunately, local hero's had just managed to catch up to Alpha and had just witnessed the fight.

They immedately reported Alpha and his team. While I.C.O.S.A. immedately blew the whistle, they did appreciate the professional work they had done. They were, however, detained until further notice as punishment for accepting a position on a unauthorized superhero team. Even the US Government denied any involvement with the team and the case was immedately dismissed. After some time, the other team members were released but Alpha refused to leave.

"...I messed up again...", he simply said.

That's when Alpha was then released but sent to Castleburg. Apparently, Alpha was just accepted into the H.E.R.O. team by special recommendation from his parents. Perhaps understanding that it was to help him rather than punish him, Alpha accepted and joined Hero One.

To sum up the old story above, Alpha aka K Nine had a rough childhood growing up. Eventually, events would ultimately lead him to H.E.R.O. One through special recommendation from his military parents to join.

There, K Nine would eventually go through a series of events that would change him ever so slightly and be more open with people. Even making choices and decisions that would make him follow his gut and heart rather than the rules despite it being morally right but against the law.

Then came the series of battles and missions that involved a secret group of villains called the ZERO Organization. Then joining a group of surpringly good friends that put together their own team called "CREW". Meeting some of the members of the "Infinite" vigilantes.

Then, yet another sequence of events actually had him go up against Commander ZERO himself of all villains...it should have been the end of him all things considering at the time hadn't not been for then Infinite leader "Red Tail" giving his life to protect him.
It even showed him that despite being wanted criminals, even SOME vigilantes still believe in them and perhaps their own sense of justice.

After about a year in recovery from such events, K Nine got back on the horse. Personally asking both then Commander of Hero One Hugo Powers and Second Commander Chirstina Lavendar to help him personally develop his own powers, he then under went training under their wing. Eventually, K Nine developed to such a degree that he was officially recognized as an "A Tier" Hero.

Although K Nine never wanted to lead the organization, he still supported it over the decades of work he put in. More often, he helped to bridge the gap between hero organizations and law enforcement plus military. He wanted to show his respect to those that even if you don't have any powers, it shouldn't stop you from becoming a good hero. Seeing Lavandar perform was proof of it.

Despite a decision he made in the past to ignore police orders, officiers like Bulldog held K Nine in high regard. He said that, "That guy's the only hero that actually gives a damn about our needs. People who put on the uniform and badge actually feel safe around him but also know not to take advantage of it. It's still a dangerous line of work but he makes sure we do it right."

He has also gone to other cities to help other law enforcing organizations over the years but always made it a point to eventually come back to Castleburg. He owed so much to the city after all.

Then, one day, K Nine just quietly vanished without a trace. It's said that perhaps he finally decided to settle down. Truth be told, he did but still keeps in touch with the remaining members of his old "CREW" team who are still alive. He just felt that it was time to hang it up.

But then, he was contacted...sometimes "retirement" wasn't permanment...

| MISCELLANEOUS |

K Nine does keep in touch with members of his old group as stated. When ever he's in town, he pays them a visit if he can. He never tells anyone but he also picked up a hobby in gardening thanks to Pandora when he volenteers to help run her shop over the decades when he had down time.

Abilities

[ RANKING ]

A

[ POWERS ]
In terms of powers, "Ki Control" was the term used for K Nine. Put simply, it allowed him to "weaponize" his own bodies energy like in cartoons and anime and use it in various ways.

As for his Ki based techniques, he has several but perfers to use the following:

Heal Factor - K Nine has saved many a life over the many years with this. Not just himself but he can also heal others while touching them provided that he has focus and energy to spare. He can't raise the dead with this power however so if someone is too far gone, he can't pull them back from the brink of death. While he can protect himself from diseases, he has trouble healing others from similar sickness unless it's "meta powered".

Enhanced Senses - K Nine can generally enhance his senses from sight, hearing, smell, etc.

"Power Up" - Basically, he can make himself slightly stronger across the board in terms of stats. Doing so for long periods of time does drain him however.

"Blue Bomb" Technique - A blue bomb is basically a specialized bomb that only harms organics and does little damage to inorganic. Basically, you won't topple any buildings unless it's super powerful but anything "living" either gets seriously hurt or dies. K Nine can actually "change" his energy so that it matches said bomb's power if he wants to hurt someone from within. Focusing his energy through his hands or feet like this can make him focus on internal injuries more than external. The very first time he used this was when he was six...that day when the supervillain invaded his house and he released it like an energy bomb itself...

K Nine is usually provided with equipment from other sources. Though he always has some sort of pistol and a shock baton on hand for self defense. He also now has a "steath coat" as shown in the above picture with a special design gas mask with several vision modes in the blue glowing eye areas. The stealth coat itself can make him invisible but can still be detected through other methods. Infared can work for example.

《 H.E.R.O. 2064 》

Well...I said I was going to try K Nine but I guess I'm just subborn.

This still needs some touching up in terms of format but here's another attempt at Crimson Setsuka in terms of story and information.

Long blonde hair. Light colored skin and eyes with red pupils. More often than not, wearing a ninja garb of some colors. Usually Red if possible. She also has a garb can actually change color. Even her own apperance can be modified but that requires resources and preparation.

[ PERSONALITY TRAITS ]

Although a machine and mostly quiet, it has surprisingly good people skills when not on mission or when necessary to talk to others. Always learning and being polite unless threatened. When threatened or on mission, usually talks in robotic terms unless around other team members.

[ BIO ]

At first glance, one would or perhaps COULD expect Crimson Setsuka to be a normal human female with the strengh, agility and grace of a normal human athlete or perhaps past normal human limits. So many would be shocked to learn that Setsuka is actually a machine with an advanced Artifical Intelligence or A.I. for short in her metal body.

There isn't a whole lot to say about Setsuka. Even her origin story is a bit shrouded. But she was actually first discovered by the two former vigilante's "Alien Angel" and "Firewall" from the "Infinite" group.

Even after the death of the Infinite leader "Red Tail" during the Zero Organization events, Alien Angel and Firewall had kept up the fight as much as they could before settling down for a bit one year after the fall of ZERO. Always helping. Always hunting. Even for their own identities. Even about the mysterious Leftover blood in their veins. Despite their vigilante status, they both had a good life over the course of 31 years or so.

But it was 6 months from the present of this story where things changed.

Firewall had gotten wind of a possible lab hidden in, of all places, some abandoned apartment building's basement in the Bronx. Fearing that yet another group of mad scientist types were at it again, both she and Alien Angel went to investigate the following night.

Fully expecting to find "failed" splicing experiments or even new man made Leftovers, they instead found what looked liked a human sized capsule. It was being guarded by one scientist and a handful of thugs. After some listening in due to Firewall using a tiny remote control car with a "bug" in it, both learned that they were waiting for a "buyer" to show. And that the scientist was surprised how much said buyer was paying for a "failed lab rat".

That was more than enough for them to step in.

After dealing with the group and leaving them tied up, both opened the capsule. Inside, what looked liked a blonde haired woman was sleeping in the nude.

Then, said woman opened her eyes, red pupils looking at it's two visitors.

With her speed, intelligence and even "stealth" based tactic's when necessary, Setsuka could be just as dangerous as a ninja that she dresses up as with a possibility to be a 10/10 threat. However, her avoidance on lethal force and need for gadgets and weapons puts this at odds, perhaps dropping her to 4/10 at lowest when unarmed.

[ ENDURANCE ]
******---- 6/10
Don't let this rating fool you. Yes, as a robot, Setsuka does have a battery that makes her last alot longer than a normal person and perhaps some meta's but it still as a limit. Another part of her design, as noted by "Firewall" so far, is her need to enter "sleep mode" to recover her energy. While incredibly high, fatigue or power failure is still possible. Plus, her body can be damaged by a strong enough blow.

[ EFFICACY ]
********-- 8/10
While very helpful, Setsuka does have some "human limitations" and weaknesses that can be exploited. Specific meta powers and/or weapons/gadgets can cause her problems for example unless she surprises her opponent first with her other strengths. Setsuka does perform well in a team though because of those strengths and can even give sage advice if anyone were to ask for info.

[ SKILLS ]

"Wi Fi" Scan - As stated in the rankings, Setsuka always has access to the internet unless she's in a "dead zone" where not even she can get a clear signal. With this, she can also scan anyone and anything within line of sight to gain personal information on said target. Sometimes if that even means "hacking" certain sources to retrieve such data.

Analyzing Combat - Setsuka can also observe her opponent to try to anticipate their next move. Though unlike other robots, she doesn't "overrely on numbers". Sometimes, she makes her own personal guesses if the opponent is being unpredictable enough.

Vision Modes - Setsuka also has a variety of vision modes. From X-Ray to Infared and even Sonar.

Wall Climbing - Basically, Pakour skills but Setsuka can also use "molecular attraction" on its feet to literraly walk up walls if she wanted to. Similar to what comic book spider-man can do.

Cloaking Garb - Setsuaka's garb is actually an enhanced piece of clothing that Firewall "upgraded" using her powers. Not only can it change colors but it can make her invisible. It's not perfect though. Infared and other methods still make her detectable. Those with sharp enough hearing can also hear her.

[ EQUIPMENT ]

Anything it can invent or get her hands on or even things Firewall thinks she needs for a mission. Though she also carries a Katana.

@DarkRecon

Uh Hitman. Sorry if you missed this. I just needed an opinion on it.

《 H.E.R.O. 2064 》

Well...I said I was going to try K Nine but I guess I'm just subborn.

This still needs some touching up in terms of format but here's another attempt at Crimson Setsuka in terms of story and information.

Crimson Setsuka

Crimson Setsuka

"...I'm here to help, NOT replace..."

[ NAME ]

Unknown

[ HERO IDENTITY ]

Crimson Setsuka

[ NICKNAME/ALIAS ]

Setsuka

[ AGE ]

Unknown

[ GENDER ]

Machine (Female Design)

[ AFFILIATION ]

Vigilante

[ APPEARANCE ]

Long blonde hair. Light colored skin and eyes with red pupils. More often than not, wearing a ninja garb of some colors. Usually Red if possible. She also has a garb can actually change color. Even her own apperance can be modified but that requires resources and preparation.

[ PERSONALITY TRAITS ]

Although a machine and mostly quiet, it has surprisingly good people skills when not on mission or when necessary to talk to others. Always learning and being polite unless threatened. When threatened or on mission, usually talks in robotic terms unless around other team members.

[ BIO ]

At first glance, one would or perhaps COULD expect Crimson Setsuka to be a normal human female with the strengh, agility and grace of a normal human athlete or perhaps past normal human limits. So many would be shocked to learn that Setsuka is actually a machine with an advanced Artifical Intelligence or A.I. for short in her metal body.

There isn't a whole lot to say about Setsuka. Even her origin story is a bit shrouded. But she was actually first discovered by the two former vigilante's "Alien Angel" and "Firewall" from the "Infinite" group.

Even after the death of the Infinite leader "Red Tail" during the Zero Organization events, Alien Angel and Firewall had kept up the fight as much as they could before settling down for a bit one year after the fall of ZERO. Always helping. Always hunting. Even for their own identities. Even about the mysterious Leftover blood in their veins. Despite their vigilante status, they both had a good life over the course of 31 years or so.

But it was 6 months from the present of this story where things changed.

Firewall had gotten wind of a possible lab hidden in, of all places, some abandoned apartment building's basement in the Bronx. Fearing that yet another group of mad scientist types were at it again, both she and Alien Angel went to investigate the following night.

Fully expecting to find "failed" splicing experiments or even new man made Leftovers, they instead found what looked liked a human sized capsule. It was being guarded by one scientist and a handful of thugs. After some listening in due to Firewall using a tiny remote control car with a "bug" in it, both learned that they were waiting for a "buyer" to show. And that the scientist was surprised how much said buyer was paying for a "failed lab rat".

That was more than enough for them to step in.

After dealing with the group and leaving them tied up, both opened the capsule. Inside, what looked liked a blonde haired woman was sleeping in the nude.

Then, said woman opened her eyes, red pupils looking at it's two visitors.

"...system online...", it said.

One thing led to another from there and the robot soon joined the two. Firewall herself thought that development for such "advanced" robots were only just starting to go around at the time but she didn't think she even see one herself this soon. Even more so with how advanced it's A.I. was. The robot itself didn't seem to remember much of her origin either. No serial number or any identification. Even with her best efforts it seemed this robot was not in any system. It didn't help either that they couldn't question the scientist nor his thugs since back up was showing. Some of which were robots themselves.

After getting to safety, the robot they helped tried to communicate with them about itself.

"...I was deemed "defective"...because I didn't "quietly" follow orders...because I wanted to learn...about the "human condition"...so I was "thrown out"...but the scientist felt he could make money off of me...I'm sorry...I don't know which electronic or corporate company threw me out...nor can I remember my creator..."

Both Alien Angel and Firewall, in a way, also knew what that felt like in their own ways. So both took it upon themselves to show her the world out there or as much of it as they could. Even though both knew the dangers of showing a machine how to lead a "normal" life.

"...don't worry...you both saved me...even if you are vigilantes...I will stay with you...even if I must help you fight..."

After some time, the robot gave itself a name with help from it's two new friends.

And so begins a story of Crimson Setsuka...a robot learning to be human...and learning about her origin and it's reason for it's existance.

| MISCELLANEOUS |

While Setsuka understands that she was possibly designed to be a "killing machine", she understands self control and thus only goes lethal if it's a last resort or is given no choice against a Human, Meta, Leftover or even machine opponent. Mysteriously, she isn't so hesitant against her own kind if said robots have deviated from their "prime directives" or simply have malfunctioned.

The following is information on the two "vigilante" individuals who follow Crimson Setsuka. When you see Setsuka, usually one or both of them aren't too far behind.

Alien Angel

Alien Angel. Also goes by her normal human name "Terra" but those close to her also call her "Angelia". Photos above show her from 31 years ago but not even she knows her true age or certain other personal information despite her "supports" best efforts. Even now, she doesn't look like she's aged much. Stands 5'8" and looks rather slim, human or transformed.

A survivor of illegal lab experimentation of splicing Leftover DNA with her human DNA, Alien Angel gain her super powers through horrible means. Managing to escape then joining with a vigilante group called "Infinite", Alien Angel started her hero work under that infamous name. Those around New York from police to criminals knew of a "Pink Leftover" flying the night skies back in her early days.

Then, both her and other members of Infinite came to Castleburg, quietly supporting the other heroes. Even more so, the group that Alpha/K Nine himself once joined.

After some years, Alien Angel began trying to find out her personal history once things in Castleburg had finally settled down. Even today, she doesn't know what kind of Leftover DNA runs through her veins but has learned to control and develop it to the point where she's officially labled a "A" Tier vigilante. Though technically wanted by the law, she actually gets "hired" for work by other offical hero groups.

With "Infinite" disbanded due to it's leader's heroic sacrifice many decades ago, Alien Angel still goes from city to city, doing her part. Then her "support" told her about some new trouble starting in Castleburg yet again...

Firewall

Firewall. Hey amigo. No peeking...well...if you managed to get this far to even read this, your either the smartest being on the planet or just so dumb that reality itself bends to your whims...heh. Or you have a smiliar super power to mine. Regardless, your not going to get much out of me...well...maybe a little.

Well where to start...well even I don't know much about myself. My mind got so screwed up from lord only knows what during my stay in one of those labs...you know the ones. Highly illegal experimentation...even with Leftover DNA...the same DNA that pumped me up on...yep. I'm one of those survivors.

After some time though, I felt it was just time to check out. Once I saw what my powers could do...well...let's just say I take "Hacking" to levels that don't apply to normal means. After some bouncing around, I wound up with the "Infinite" vigiantes. I ain't normally a people person...even more so after those "lab coats" screwed me up for so long...but peeps like Alien Angel were just...fun to be around.

Afterwards, we just did our parts off record...but oh man...that whole mess with the ZERO organization 31 years ago...I'll tell ya, anyone in Castleburg who's still alive today probably has their own stories to tell about what they were doing...when all that went down...even more so with our old boss "Red Tail"...

Wow. Actually getting emotional...but yeah, I stand as a "support" for Alien Angel now. We just go around helping when we can and have some fun when we have down time. Course, being "officially" wanted does damper the fun sometimes but hey, I know how to keep low profile...probably why so many governments wanted to classify me as a "S" Tier threat...what? That I can hack anything and perhaps see someone's dirty laundry or skeletons in said someone's closet? Psh...politics.

Well I've said enough. I'm no troublemaker but it just seems like everyone WANTS to label me as one...so to those of you that label me...well...your lucky I still have to protect you...so when another troublemaker causes you ACTUAL trouble...you better hope I'm close by to bail you out...cya =^_^=

Abilities

[ RANKING ]

A

[ POWERS ]

In terms of powers, Crimson Setsuka doesn't really have anything that could be considered one. Other than being a robot that is. It's her intelligence and speed that makes her top tier and her ability to make gadgets to make up for her lack of any powers. While this requires prep time, she's never without a weapon on her. She also has help from "Firewall" sometimes using her power to make a weapon or two.

[ PHYSICAL STRENGTH ]
****------ 4/10
While she's stronger than your average human, her body didn't seemed designed for brute strength.

[ AGILITY ]
*********- 9/10
This, however, is where Setsuka is most dangerous. Supposedly, she's so quick that she can "Bullet Time" or move and/or react to sudden situations like bullets.

[ INTELLIGENCE ]
********** 10/10
But if speed doesn't cut it, it's her smarts that also help. With her own "Wi Fi" ability, she can also gather info using the internet in the heat of combat. Plus, she's very perceptive. She also can study an opponent and attempt to anticipate her opponents next move.

[ DESTRUCTIVENESS ]
*****----- 5/10
Truth be told, this could vary. On her own, Setsuke could do some damage to property but lacks the physical strength to do anything major like knock over buildings. Gadgets, though, can change this but she avoids any unnecessary damage.

[ LETHALITY ]
?????????? ??/10
By far, this is the biggest mystery. With her speed, intelligence and even "stealth" based tactic's when necessary, Setsuka could be just as dangerous as a ninja that she dresses up as with a possibility to be a 10/10 threat.

《 H.E.R.O. 2064 》

<Snipped quote by DarkRecon>

Interesting concept, but there's a lot that's missing from the table right now.

• The whole powers/abilities section is absent, and that's kind of a must-have.
• The classified intel should be DMed to me and Canary. Let me know if I missed it, but I don't think I've received anything of the sort.
• HERO is not an international organization. HERO would have zero jurisdiction as to Japan's hero activity- that would belong to PHANTOM. As such, she can't just travel the globe willy-nilly.
• Again, full backstory should be DMed to me and Canary before I can accept the character. ​
• The entire concept of "e-Heroes" isn't clear to me, as your bio references both traditional law enforcement and hero companies as being Crimson Satsuka's employer. The former would really make her just a special forces ekop, while the latter wouldn't make much sense from a logical perspective. Hero companies employ metahumans, not robots, and robots are in fact singlehandedly weighing down the broader hero community. Hero companies would see no need to, and would in fact be STRONGLY opposed to, any form of electronic hero.
• Going by the former point's logic, it would also make zero sense why one hero company would ship what they view as a defective robot off to another continent. Wouldn't she just have been destroyed on the spot, or at least re-programmed in some way? Just saying 'here, we'll send the potentially compromised goods to another company to deal with' doesn't really make any sense.

A good idea, but there are a lot of flaws in the blueprint.

@Hitman

So yeah. After this explanation and what you told me, trying to make a "good robot" wouldn't work at all with the lore of this RP.

...*sigh*...well back to the drawing board. Might as well re-vamp K Nine then. Jesus though I've lost my edge with character design here.
