I could be interested in this. I want to see some of the details your planning for this before I make a commitment first.
Yeah not really. We all bit, and have rabies. :P
Seriously though, welcome. Not sure what you'll are into around here, but if super power RPs set in the roaring twenties (I know, what weirdo chooses that era) then you should check out This one. Just a little shameless plugging to get you'll started.

Is this RP still taking new characters?
I would have replied to that. Unfortunately the last 2 days haven't been good for me. Most of my posting was by phone away from home. But I took the time and got a post in tonight.
Kensi's grimaced at the AI as she appeared next to the captain. It figures the voice that summoned them here was from an AI. The sergeant greatly disliked AIs. Every time she'd encountered one Kensi had nearly lost her life. It was always a bad omen for her when an AI was attached to the mission. "Great. I survived Reach just to die on a dust ball at the ass end of the galaxy." Mathers mumbled to herself as she stood at the dismissal and moved from the room to her drop pod.
Sliding herself into the confined space Kensi took a moment to peak out and look up and down the row. There had been other squads in that room. All told there was at least three dozen ODST dropping today. Logically Kensi knew the odds were against her. At most maybe only half would make it to the surface. Taking one final look at those around her Kensi sighed and leaned back into the seat, securing her crash webbing as the pod closed its self.

Welcome.
So I did have a bit of an idea for a enemy character. I was reading some more of old Tuatha De Danann lore to get some ideas to help round my character out a little more when I came across another figure of the same era I found interesting, Nuada Airgetlám the first king of the Tuatha De. In lore he is actually as one of the good guys, having lost his hand in battle and lost his kingship because of it, but loved so much that he received a silver hand and was allowed to return as king.
But there are some elements to his story that make me think he would be someone that would oppose HA.N.D. and try to turn the mutants into an army. Seeing as how every character created thus far has some sort of alligence to H.A.N.D. I thought maybe we could get someone on the other side. That being said I only suggested that character cause I would be good in generating some side story with my character. But in truth an enemy of H.A.N.D. could be anyone.
If anyone is interested in this character, in any capacity that best fits within the RP, feel free to PM me.

finally finished my CS and posted it.
[Female | 3,134 | Pre-Mutant | Role within the team]
Anna 'Étaín' McIntyre. In the early days of Celtic folklore, when the Tuatha De Danann lived among humans Anna was known for her legendary beauty. Over the millennia her image has served to inspire the now classic imagery of an Irish maiden, with her flowing red hair, and creamy pale skin. Standing at only 5'6" and a youthful face full of freckles it is easy to mistake Anna as a harmless girl.
Like the sun that she represents Anna can be a fiery individual, as uncontrollable as a wild fire when angered. To those that have spent time with her, Anna is considered soft spoken. Anna often doesn't let many into her private world, nor care for what is happening outside of it. Rarely has she shown an active role in the politics of her world, immigrating to America to avoid being drawn into the Irish Rebellion in the late 1700s. When approached by H.A.N.D. Anna agreed to their requests in an attempt create a new Tautha De Danann culture, but quickly turned against them at the realization they were as monstrous as humanity.

Weakness:
Human Physiology - While many mutants possess peak-human to super-human physiology, the Tuatha De Danann physiology never evolved beyond that of normal humans.
Weakness to Iron - The Tuatha De Danann have a strong reaction to iron more then any other substance in the universe, it is highly toxic to them, which lead to the myth in old celtic lore that the only thing that can truly one was with an iron sword.
Night - Anna pulls her power from the sun. As such she becomes powerless at night.

H.A.N.D. Status
Anna was recruited at the beginning of the twentieth century, providing the necessary materials for scientists to begin the research for the serums. After the war ended and the sudden outbreak of new mutants Anna continued her contract with H.A.N.D. to control the mutants she know considered her greatest sin.
History
Anna McIntyre, born Étaín, was a member of the family of pre-mutants known as the Tautha De Danann that naturally evolved on the Irish islands several thousand years ago. Étaín is the daughter of Etar, king of Echrad, and Grian. As she grew up Anna became known throughout Ireland for her legendary beauty. It was such beauty that drew the attentions of Midhir, Lord of Bri Leith, who abandoned his first wife, Fuamnach, in order to marry Anna. Enraged with jealousy Fuamnach cursed the young Anna, never being able to bare a child for Midhir, and set into motion a bitter rivalry that continued until Midhir's death.
By the 10th Century BC much of the Tautha De Danann had died off due to rivalries, small gene pool, and Ireland's general remoteness. Unlike most of her kin Anna didn't eagerly adopted the mantle of god among the humans, instead choosing to fade from history and avoid the conflicts that would spell disaster for the rest of her people. If was during this relative time of peace in Ireland that Anna began her first Odyssey traveling across Europe before coming under the guidance of King Solomon. During her time in the east Anna learned of new ideas and languages. She traveled through Asia, learning to disguise her red hair and pale features.
One of Anna's main goals during this period was to uncover others like her. As her own people were revered as gods she sought out other major legends of gods through the known world. However, she did not encounter another until Shang-ti in the lands known as China. Coveting her beauty and power the Chinese mutant attempted to imprison and force Anna to marry him. She was kept for three years underground where the sun could not reach. Her escape finally came when she was able to seduce a slave into allowing her into a courtyard where she was exposed to the sun. With her power restored Anna burned down Shang-ti's palace, graviously wounding that man and flee west.
By the time she'd returned to the Aegean region much had changed in the three-hundred years she'd wandered through Asia and Africa. Anna remained in the Roman Kingdom for a decade, learning of new concept of democracy that was taking hold of the populace. Anna left Rome when it became evident that violence was to break out between the monarchy and the Republic factions of the kingdom. She returned to Ireland towards the beginning of the fifth century BC, over four-hundred years since her departure. With her she brought new influences of art, language and culture.
Feeling that the Tautha De Danann should remain nothing more then myth to the humans Anna chose a life of solitude. Living far from human settlements in the mountains of northern Ireland for several centuries, venturing out every couple of decades to travel the lands and learn how the humans were changing. Her encounter with the roman writer, Claudius Ptolemy, in the first century AD brought news of Rome from the last six-hundred years. Appalled at the time of the promising concept of a republic falling into a brutal empire Anna at first dismissed the man, whom had surmised the truth of her origins during their discourse. However, the knowledge Ptolemy willingly shared to the immortal woman was the basis of the friendship they formed. For this she shared much of the lost history of her homeland to the roman, making the man commit to never share the knowledge of her kind.
The new ideas from the rest of the world spurred Anna into becoming more of a force of change for Ireland. For the next three-hundred years Anna helped in the elevation of the High Kings Cormac mac Airt and Niall Noígíallach. Though she chose to remain in the shadows Anna encouraged the idea that these Kings had been chosen by the gods of old to reign over the peoples Ireland. The golden age of High Kings saw the slow unification of the emerald isles, though short as the emergence of Christianity altered Anna's efforts. Though Christianity had a presence on Ireland for several generations it wasn't until the arrival of Palladius that Anna was directly attacked. The immortal was seen as a heretical figure and a threat to the new religion.
Viewing the royal family's conversion and renouncement of the old gods as a betrayal to all that she'd done for them Anna fled from Ireland, beginning her second odyssey. Anna resettled in Rome, which by this time was in sever decline and the western empire close to collapse. By the time of the sacking of Rome by the Vandals in 455 CE Anna had become fed up with humanity and their constant need for war. Traveling east Anna settled in Constantinople which she found far more enlightened then its western counterpart.
After centuries of seeing nothing but wars Anna returned to Ireland at the beginning of the eighteenth century, but soon left for America due to the outbreak of the Irish Rebellion and French Revolution. Anna continued to move around and change her identity until the late nineteenth century when the group that would become H.A.N.D. became aware of her. After several years avoiding them Anna was convinced to join them it their pursuit to understand and recreate her genes. Though for Anna it was a chance to see the return of her species and a family of her own. However when the Great War broke out and witnessing the atrocities these mutants could be capable of Anna came to believe that the world was better off without her kind. As a result Anna has committed to work with H.A.N.D. to control the sudden outbreak of mutants.
