Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

Maybe this is just me being a stickler for details, but how did she learn the kaio-ken? Did this hermit teacher know King Kai?

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

Yeah I was starting to notice that. Everyone thirsty for super saiyan ladies. They are beauty, they are grace, they will melt your fucking face.

Can't wait for the shoe shopping arc.

@PPQ Purple don't worry about posting in the wrong place. Once you get a character accepted you can just edit that post to have the character sheet and nothing will be out of place. Sadly we can't delete our own posts but oh well.

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

Velona

Name: Velona
Species: Zuichijin (Tentative name. Not sure I like it. Probably won't refer to it much if I can help it. And yes, it's something I made up.)
She comes from a pale-skinned species with hyper-aggressive tendencies and strong bio-electric abilities. Over time, the weaker members of their race evolved away from uncontrollable aggression, but the stronger still require intense meditation and sometimes even a blindfold to control themselves. Her species has developed a sort of primitive ki-sensing ability, allowing them to mentally map the area around them in a sort of bubble, in order to make up for the blindfolds some of them wear.
Age: 35
Gender: Female
Appearance: Long, white hair, pale, almost pure-white skin with a delicate frame. She wears a cloth blindfold over her eyes, which are red. She wears elegant, loose fitting clothes, tied tightly to her body where it won't interfere with her range of motion.

My Hider

Not really 100% what I imagined, but... yeah I'm not gonna find anything closer than that.

Personality: Stoic, serene, and patient, though her good nature has been tempered after recent events. She's the type to be the voice of reason in a chaotic situation.
Bio:

Somewhat lengthy

Born on a planet under Freeza's occupation. Rather than being slaughtered and their planet sold off, Freeza attempted to make use of their species for their unique abilities. A group of saiyans were used as an occupying force. A waste of their talents and power, but perhaps that was the point, considering his feelings about saiyans.

One day, a young saiyan boy just appeared seemingly out of nowhere, though she would later learn he'd spent his early years growing in a tank. Neither of them fully aware of the tensions going on, they formed a sort of friendship. However, years later, she would learn of her people's plans for rebellion. She was to deal with the boy in order to steel her resolve for future conflict.

She did as she was told, but her heart wasn't in it. Despite her betrayal and failure, she was spared, though badly beaten by the time the fight was over. Perhaps he too could not bring himself to finish her, or perhaps he'd been able to tell that she'd been pulling her punches.

Regardless, she was left to limp away. She quickly learned that the rebellion was a total failure. With their scouters, the first attack to fail had put the occupying saiyans on alert, and soon enough their power and brutality overwhelmed the frailer of the two species. However, among those her people had slain was the leader of the saiyans -- and the boy's father. Her own parents had carried it out.

While saiyans were not known for their warm, loving families, that combined with Velona's betrayal had caused his rage to explode. In the end, they were both left orphaned. In the following days, Freeza himself arrived to mete out their punishment. Since the rebellion had already failed pathetically, Freeza did not simply destroy their planet, but instead razed half its surface to volcanic rock and glass, leaving those who remained to try and survive on the ravaged planet.

Velona should have been one of the unlucky ones, trapped on the doomed half of the planet. However, she was dragged away with a few others to be used as servants by the saiyans. A slave.

She soon learned that she hadn't been chosen by chance. In keeping with the saiyans monarchical society, the boy with his newfound power had taken the place of his father, even if unofficially due to his age. She expected to spend many, miserable years under their heels, but it was not to be.

The first few years were fearful, but over time she grew accustomed, and sometimes would even speak her mind. Her old companion would usually put her in her place, but wouldn't allow his fellow saiyans to do so. Eventually she realized that neither of them had quite truly been left alone in the wake of the disastrous rebellion. As twisted as it was, they had been left with each other.

This became especially important when all saiyans were recalled their home world. Seeing what had become of Velona's people, her companion was... suspicious. He delayed all those under his command, claiming engine trouble to those who asked. News soon enough reached them of Planet Vegeta's annihilation. In shock, they all went into hiding, destroying their scouters.

Thus, a group of warlike saiyans and a handful of servants were left to try and find a new way to live. They could no longer go tearing across the galaxy sowing havoc or they'd be found in short order. Over time, Velona slowly wormed her way into her old companion's life, perhaps out of desperation looking for the good in him she'd once known.

In the end, it wasn't as hard to find as she'd expected. In the end, she found herself in a way... teaching him. Or perhaps, better yet, reminding him of how things could be different. Better. For the longest time, she was still barely more then a glorified assistant to him, but he had come to heed her word and wouldn't shun or silence her. They once more respected each other.

When he had a child with another saiyan woman, it was Velona who insisted that he be raised "properly" and not left to incubate in some tank. It was then that she truly tested her standing in his eyes by browbeating him into being a father -- and she succeeded. It was then that she finally had a family again. It was hard to call the next few years truly the greatest of her strange, violent life, but they were happy.

Until it was all burned to ash once more.

Techniques:
Shocking ki-blasts: Amping her natural bio-electric abilities with ki, she can launch it at her enemies.
Electric Roots: She can channel her ki through the ground beneath her to lay traps or stealthily attack an enemy who is standing still and unaware. Has the same basic properties as the above, though less explosive.
Projected Presence: She can project her ki signature across a fair distance, making it appear she is somewhere else. She can split it in multiple directions and the effect can be made strong enough to work almost like a visual mirage or illusion.
Malefic Presence: The prior ability cranked up to 11, instilling a strong sense of danger, but cannot be split. Has been known to frighten weaker victims into unconsciousness. "The monster is right behind you."
Extreme Spiral Detonator: A technique she learned through observation and her last resort. Two spinning orbs of ki are pressed together and launched, or preferably slammed into at melee range, the foe. If the victim is too weak, they will usually be sent flying and spinning into the distance. When the ki of the two orbs fully mix, it will lose all stability and explode catastrophically. Usually it is manually detonated by a subsequent ki blast once at a safe distance.

Transformations:
Predator: While debatably not a true transformation, she can take advantage of her species' physiology to increase the intensity and density of the ki within her. This tends to cause her bio-electric abilities to run wild, leaving her cloaked in a violent storm of electricity and ki. It also tends to bring out her more vicious inner nature.

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

Well here goes something. Made up my own species for this character. Hopefully everything is OK. As for her "transformation" when you get to it, I guess I'd best describe it as a species specific kaio-ken with a twist, though it's not technically based off of the kaio-ken in any way. Just sort of the best reference point I can think of to give.

Apologies if her story is horribly melodramatic, but it was me summarizing a much longer story that I've had in my head for quite some time and trying to narrow it down to the important bits. It's only somewhat as messed up as it sounds. Or maybe just as messed up, I dunno, I've never had it written down before.

What's the position on cybernetics, transhumanism, grumpy Scots, and combining the three into one drunken mess?

I like the cut of your jib.

'Dammit... dammit... not again!' Rurik wasn't much of a dancer, that much was clear. He was basically just being pulled and dragged around the dancefloor by Christine while he put all his faculties into not stepping on her feet. Meanwhile, the spotlight that shone upon them grated further and further on his nerves. He had no doubt that little rich brat was behind it.

What she didn't realize, was that this meant war.

Except every time he was about to take aim at it, Christine would lead him out of sight of it! Either another dancing couple would get in the way, or she'd turn him so he wasn't able to see it! It was maddening!

No, no, it was fine. They'd been dancing long enough now that he'd totally gotten a feel for it. Guys were supposed to lead when dancing anyway, right? Ignoring that he'd just mentally trampled over decades of gender progression, he put his plan into action. With the grand total of three minutes or so of experience he'd just acquired, he tried to take the lead.

In doing so, he effectively tripped Christine, threatening to knock her on her ass. Rather than a simple maneuver so he could get the damnable spotlight in his sights, he'd instead ended up having to catch her. To the casual observer, it looked like he'd thrown Christine into a dip as part of their dance. Someone even clapped. Rurik just clenched his jaw and rolled with it. Never mind the fact that all his weight had ended up loaded on one foot and a gentle breeze threatened to demolish what was left of his balance.

On the bright side, he was facing the right direction now. He extended his index finger and fired off a tiny bolt, which sped across the room and punched a neat hole in the spotlight lens, annihilating's the bulb inside. It would look like someone had simply turned it off unless they took a closer look, and with Rurik's projectiles being nigh imperceptible energy, it was untraceable. With a victorious smirk, he set about pulling himself and Christine upright again.

"What can I say? You're, uhh, a great teacher..." Rurik told her while unable to meet her eyes. Yep. Totally... totally on purpose.

The battle was won and the ball was back in Lise's court.

Mass Effect: Phoenix | A search for a Captain and Co-GM

Very interesting. I am intrigued. A long time ago I dreamed up some characters just for fun that I could totally fit into this.

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

Ooof, I really shouldn't be taking on more stuff, but color me interested.

Royal Rumble!

@Hammerman@Crowvette

For a split-second, Rurik saw red. It seemed that despite her "charitable ball" she was just another arrogant, stuck-up, rich girl. He clenched his fists, energy gathering inside him without even thinking. He took a step forward, words on the tip of his tongue. His mind had settled on anger and spite as his response. Some in the crowd began to frantically murmur, seeing the intensely derisive look on Rurik's face.

Then he just stopped before his mouth opened. Somehow it felt to familiar of a situation. Stirring things up unnecessarily in front of Christine suddenly wasn't very appealing. He'd refrain... this time.

Oh he'd still be a spiteful bastard about it, though.

He suddenly grabbed Christine's hands and pulled her over, assuming some terrible approximation of a dancer's stance.

"First come first serve," Rurik said, leaning his head around Christine to shoot a scowl at Lise. "Although, I don't really know how to dance. You'll have to teach me, Christine. Might take a while." His frown shifted to a knowing smirk. "I'm a slow study."
