Is this still open?
I sent Shoh a pm.

And seriously, my average post length on this site is two paragraphs. Four's my all time maximum. I may have taken a long hiatus where I wrote a couple of short stories and a full 38,000 word story, but yeah. When it comes to RPing on this site, I've never been near advanced standard.
I'm still having trouble. It may be because this is my first advanced RP but I keep going 'nope. That character's not god enough' and starting over from scratch.
I think an old lady crossing the street would be funnier if Captain did it.
I'm still trying to decide the basics of my chararcter. i,e, basic personality and gender.
The stats are in.
Sorry, I don't think I'm going to be able to join this one
Name: Elizabeth 'Liz' Haliday

Identity: Beamer

Origin: Relic



Appearance:
Liz is about average height and build. She has medium length brown hair, brown eyes and a face that's pretty though nothing that would catch your attention f you passed her in the street. She's usually seen in skinny jeans and an open maroon cardigan over a blue or yellow T-shirt.

In costume, she wears a white ensemble made from the silk of a hundred aquatic insects, giving it more strength and elasticity than ordinary silk, while still being more breathable than latex. The design is vaguely reminiscent of a medieval knight, though in place of armor, she wears a tan bullet proof vest. Her identity is kept secret by a hard metal cap, and aviator shades.

Background:
Liz was a History student studying at the University of the West of England, who constantly achieved A's. In between her third and final years, she took a gap year to go and travel around America. In her first three months, he made some new friends, and showed them how to party UK style. Four months in, she went swimming at a rock pool. Instead of swimming around the surface like you were supposed to do, she swam down to the bottom just to see if she could. There she found a blue seashell half buried in the sand and stones.

Upon returning to the surface, she cracked the shell, and appearing from it was the Lady of the Lake, of Arthurian Legend. As a thanks for freeing her, the Lady of the Lake gave her a very sturdy looking cricket back and proclaimed "Excalibur's taken, you I reward you with this instead. Behold, Excalibat! With this weapon, you are destined for greatness! With this weapon, you have the means to do great things and make a difference! Also, you're technically the rightful Queen of Kent. Good luck with whatever you decide to use this power for, and, um, if you ever need help, don't hesitate to seek me out, okay, cutie~?"

With a blush and a flirtatious wink, The Lady of the Lake was gone. Over the next few months, Liz gave up her studies to focus on making a positive difference the only way a Chris Hemsworth fan can; She became a superhero!

It was a complete disaster. She had the mystical weapon Excalibat, but no combat experience, and no protection of her body or identity save a pair of sunglasses and a hoodie. That's when the bat began sending her sarcastic messages, telling her correct cricket stances to take, the rules of both cricket and Arthurian chivalry. Slowly but surely teaching her how to become the hero she was destined to be.

The Lady of the Lake returned when she heard of Liz's intentions to fight crime, and fashioned her a new suit made from the silk of a hundred aquatic insects. When Liz asked why it had to be so tight and figure-flattering, the Lady of the Lake just giggled and blew her a kiss before dissapearing again.

With her tools, she set out to become a hero, and this time, was moderately more successful, but still has a long way to go.

Powers:
Liz possesses Excalibat, which is no ordinary block of wood. As well as slowly teaching her how to fight, it is also literally indestructable, which, combined with the bat's width, is handy for blocking bullets, lasers and other nasties. You can also hit people with it very hard.

Talents:
-Smooth talker - Liz has very good people skills finely honed from years of banter with mates, and weaseling her way out of deadlines.
-Intelligent with a good knowledge of history - She pays attention in lectures. Rare for a student.
-Tech literate - Liz has been raised on computers. Don't ask her to hack the FBI or anything, but if your PC's not working, she can probably fix it.

Contacts:
The Lady of The Lake - The mystical figure of Arthurian legend. Possesses unknown powers and has an unknown history. Has a crush on Liz.
Dr. Exposition - Liz's former History Lecturer. No matter what questions Liz has for him regarding history yet are strangely relevant in whatever crime she's stopping, he is guaranteed to have just finished reading a book on the subject.
I definitely want to be in this. I'm going to aim to get my CS written tomorrow.
I'm not sure what to put for skills, contacts or backstory.
