So we're starting a few months in. I should be able to get a post in tonight.

@FacePunch Interested in having Satan and Kieran be alien rivals? I think it could be pretty interesting.

Strawberry Fanta is a thing? Where has it been all my life?


Probably Georgia. I can't remember if I've seen it anywhere else.
Hmm.

To be a douchebag alien with a superiority complex, or not to be a douchebag alien with a superiority complex..that is the question.


Always go with the douche. Always.


| NAME: |
Kor-El or Kieran Kent


| ALIAS: |
N/A


| AGE: |
16


| ABILITIES/SKILLS/EQUIPMENT: |
  • Superhuman Strength: Kieran, like other Kryptonians, has super strength when exposed to the yellow sun's solar radiation. His strength however is more limited compared to the others due to how low his exposure has been and the fact that his powers are still developing. He has so far shown to be able to lift up to fifty tons with some effort, but his average is around twenty-five. His striking power is of course different.
  • Superhuman Speed: Kieran also has super speed. So far he's only been able to run up to the speed of sound. He continues to try and push himself further the most with this power feeling that the faster he is the more it'll benefit him and others.
  • Superhuman Durability: Kieran doesn't believe himself to be as invulnerable as the other members of the House of El, but he does know that he doesn't die easily. He rather not push himself to the point of finding out how much he can take though. His durability stems from his dense cellular and anatomical structure as well as his bio-electric aura. The latter provides extra protection and can be extended to prevent destroying the things he lifts and those that he carries when he travels.
  • Superhuman Stamina: Kieran has the ability to maintain continuous physical actions for a long time. This comes in handy for those long nights... of studying.
  • Longevity: Kieran live a long time if he isn't killed. How long? No one really knows.
  • Superhuman Senses: His abilities to hear and smell are on a considerably higher level than that of humans. He's also able to control what he focuses on hearing which is fortunate because he'd otherwise be overwhelmed with the noise.
  • Self-Sustenance: Kieran doesn't need to eat or sleep, but does the latter to have a sense of normalcy. He eats because he just loves the food on this planet.
  • Super Visions: Kieran has the potential to use an assortment of different types of vision. As of now he's only unlocked two types of "super" vision. The first one being X-Ray vision which allows him to see through anything except for lead. His last form of vision is Heat Vision which allows him to fire intense beams of heat from his eyes. With enough training he'd also be able to make the beams invisible.
  • Super Breath: Since his lungs are still developing this power isn't as strong as it could be. He is at the moment only able to create strong gusts of wind and breathe in a good amount of gas, but it takes a lot out of him to do so.
  • Healing Factor: He heals his wounds much faster than a normal human, but since his powers are still developing the larger and more intense the wound the longer it takes to heal.
  • Super Jumps: As of now he isn't able to fly, but he is able to jump or leap higher than tall buildings and over large distances. He also calls this ability pseudo-flight because he's able to hover in the air a bit longer before falling.
  • Genius Level Intellect: He's been noted to have a high level of intelligence despite forgetting a lot before he was found by Superman. Now he's able to retain the knowledge that he gains and is able to process things a lot faster. Because of this he's a quick learner and can master a lot of things with relative ease.
  • Bilingual: Kieran can speak, read, and write both Kryptonian and English fluently. If he wanted to he could learn other languages.


| LIMITATIONS AND WEAKNESSES: |
  • Underdeveloped: Due to his young age and late exposure to solar radiation he isn't able to absorb as much as an adult Kryptonian or was unable to absorb a lot prior to developing his powers. He still constantly absorbs solar radiation and pushes himself to get stronger. He also notes this as a possible reason for his inability to fly.
  • Lack of Experience: When it came to fighting training Superman only taught him how to defend himself against others as well as to take down enemies without killing. He however hasn't been able to use any of this in a real battle.
  • Nightmares: He tends to suffer from nightmares, but they're not as frequent as they used to be. He still finds himself falling asleep feeling that it's normal to have both good and bad dreams.
  • Adrenaline: When it comes to fighting he finds it hard to hold back on his super strength due to an increased rush of adrenaline. In a school setting it should be easier, but the bigger the challenge the harder it is to control.
  • Vulnerability to Kryptonite: He is vulnerable to the Kryptonite found on this Universe. Due to his young age, lack of exposure, and full Kryptonian biology it's safe to assume that it affects him more compared to the others.
  • Vulnerability to Magic: Kieran is able to be affected by magic, but he has no fear of magic or those who wield it.
  • Lead: He cannot see through lead with his X-Ray vision.
  • Locked Abilities: Going back to his underdevelopment there's still some powers that he hasn't unlocked yet. Those are Flight, Freeze Breath, Telescopic Vision, Microscopic Vision, and EM Spectrum Vision, and Infrared Vision.


| SAMPLE POST: |
Kieran was fifteen now. It had been three years to this day since Clark had found him. He was walking through the Fortress's zoo. He enjoyed walking through there and looking at all of the different species that Superman had saved. It was his favorite place to be. It was also why he spent a lot of time here instead of in Metropolis or Smallville. Metropolis tended to be too noisy and Smallville was too boring. One might consider the Fortress of Solitude was boring, but Kieran didn't. It fascinated him and it was the best place for him to train and use his powers. It's why Clark didn't fully object to him spending a lot of time here. Kieran knew that he needed to absorb more of the sun's radiation, but he didn't very much like the world around him. It was too new to him. Too... different.

He decided to leave the zoo for a while so that he wouldn't get bored of it either. He started walking towards the center of the Fortress where the statues of Jor-El and Lara stood. Well, stood wouldn't be the right word. They were floating and holding a miniature Krypton. He didn't remember what Krypton was like or know if he even knew what it was like. Kieran's thoughts were then immediately interrupted by the sound of a large crash and before he could fully turn around he was knocked into the base of the statue.

His eyes slowly opened to see the figure of a man walking towards him. He was holding an axe that he obviously planned to use on him. He stumbled to his feet and tried to get a good look at the man's face. He couldn't make it out. It was dark... and blank? No, that couldn't be right. Whoever this man was he was clearly strong and had an axe to grind with him.

The man walked closer while scraping the axe against the ground. The sound it made was beyond irritating, but he didn't seem to be bothered. Instead he started to talk. "Look at you... wearing that crest on your chest as if you're one of them. You've grown too comfortable in your position."

"What? I have no---." He interrupted himself by charging forward ready to take on this intruder. The robots must have been deactivated because they weren't coming to help and Superman wasn't here. Right now it was up to him to protect the Fortress. He sent a strike towards the man's chest while finishing his original sentence. "Idea what you're talking about!" The fist connected, but it did nothing. The man didn't even look like he felt it.

Kieran was sure that the man would have been smiling if he had a face. Instead he used his left hand to grab the young Kryptonian by the head before slamming him into the ground and lifting him back up. Kieran could already tell that he was defeated. His body wouldn't even register the pain that he was feeling right now. He was bleeding from his lip and wanted to counter somehow, but couldn't. He was tossed back into the statue this time landing on Jor-El's floating feet and in his legs.

He spit out blood and looked up at the miniature Krypton before realizing that the man was already in front of him. "You honestly think you're one of them? A child of El? A Super? Someone with meaning? Someone with their own destiny?"

Kieran tried to say something, but the words wouldn't come. His voice was gone and the axe was coming. All he could do now was close his eyes.

He opened them again and this time he was in his bed. It was just another nightmare. It's one that he had before, but he had almost forgotten it. His mind didn't seem to want him to forget it. Kieran reached to his shirt and grabbed the Crest of El in the center of his chest. He wanted to call out for Superman, but he knew that he wasn't there. That part wasn't a dream. He was alone and for the first time he now felt like the Fortress of Solitude lived up to its name.

@King Kindred Whew, X-Ray vision was a bit of a concern on campus :P


Oh he still has that. That there Kryptonian puberty.



<Snipped quote by King Kindred>

See, Freddie very much has an 'us vs them' mentality, and would definitely avoid a character based on their friendships with people he doesn't like. It seems that Freddie will be able to bring a degree of conflict, as it seems thus far that the majority of characters are "nice to everyone" and "generally friendly". Freddie is indeed very charming and friendly, but these traits are reserved for people he likes only. He's not the type to hang out with people he doesn't like for the sake of popularity. I


Yeah. With Kieran he's spent most of his time in the Fortress of Solitude so he doesn't get the whole, "I can't be your friend because my friend isn't your friend." thing.

He's not really that friendly either, but it's been suggested to him that he tries to get to know people and make connections. But it's more possible for him to not like someone than it is for him to be friends with them. Their personalities and how they treat him will mostly determine that.
@Lord Wraith Edited the CS and locked most of the visions, flight, and freeze breath.
@King Kindred I added a quick edit but I wasn't sure if you saw it.

<Snipped quote>

Might be something to consider.


Ooh. I didn't notice that. Yeah, I can definitely do that.

<Snipped quote by King Kindred>

Consider re-reading Wraith's post. He made an addition that I think slipped by!

I'm up for Kieran and Freddie having some kind of relationship. But I'm also wanting Freddie to be enemies with Hillan's character, Luthor. It might be more interesting to have the El and Luthor be friends, due to their personalities but also their histories. In which case it would make more sense for Kieran and Freddie to not get along.


El and Luthor being friends could be interesting. But I don't think Kieran would be the type to not get along with someone just because of something between his friend and them. Though it depends on if Freddie does something to antagonize him.
@King Kindred Oh the joys of reviewing a Kryptonian sheet. There's nothing that stands out as horribly wrong, although I'm sure some people might think he's over powered. But the underdeveloped limitation seems to limit him quite well. His strength maxes out at an acceptable range, and being able to just go Mach speed is pretty reasonable. I think I can go ahead and accept this sheet. Throw him up in the depository whenever you want.


Woohoo! Thanks. Yeah, I wasn't even sure about 50 until WT's Urxas.

I'm also interested in having Kieran have connections with other characters.
And I have finally completed my CS. Behold:


I'm going to brainstorm the IC tonight, see if I can't figure out a good way to kick the game off.

Two questions for everyone:

One, would you rather the RP start at the beginning of a school year, or would you like it to kick off with school having already been in session for a bit?

Two, would you like an optional relationship sheet skeleton?

I'll post these to the OP for anyone who misses this post.


I say beginning of a school year and no preference for the relationship sheet skeleton.
