Digging Deep

In-Depth Appearance

Agent Decker is quite the cocky bastard, and can rarely be seen without his smug grin that just really makes you want to punch him in the face, whether he's on the enemy team or your own. He's pale with dirty blond hair, which gets pretty long considering he never cares enough to get it trimmed. He tends to go with the "carelessly hot" look, combing his hair back easily into a hat for convenience. His clothing is almost always causual, only dressing up beyond sweatpants and hoodies or t-shirts for special occasions. In the field, he wears his nanotech armor, skin tight and incredibly resilient. The suit is pure black, light blue circuitry lining the entirety of the piece. Thinking he looked too much like a character from Tron with only the suit, he likes to don a white leather jacket and combat boots over top of the suit. He also wear his tactical visor in the field, which is made from tempered steel with an icy blue lens.

Habits and Quirks

• He tends to talk to the Orbs a lot. He seems to be able to tell the difference between them, calling them by names, even though they are identical, and his visor gives no indication of which is which.
• He has a very small bruise on his upper lip from chewing on it a nervous habit. Mention anything about him being nervous ever, though, and he'll deny it profusely.
• Flynn actually suffers from a lot of anxiety, but covers it up with his perpetually cocky attitude. Get close to him, though, and he will eventually let loose, and that's when his caring side really shows up.
• Flynn is incredibly ticklish. But don't tell anyone.
• Flynn treats his creations like family. Don't insult them, or else it will be very hard to get him to like you. Overall, though, he's a very friendly guy.

Likes

• Tinkering.
• Cooking.
• Writing.
• Memes.
• Video games.

Dislikes

• Assholes (the personality kind, of course).
• Needless destruction.
• Stuck up/up tight people.
• Vibe-harshing.

Fears

• Drowning.
• Spiders.

Personality

Cocky. No doubt about that. Flynn loves to have fun, especially if he gets to defend those he loves in the process. He believes that people like him, those who are stronger than most, have a duty to protect those who who can't protect themselves. Despite his confidence, he has an inferiority complex, and if you can make him believe a situation is truly hopeless, then he's prone to giving up.

{"Stay over there and fight me like a man!"}

Origins

Background

Flynn was always a curious young boy. He loved to take apart machinery and put it back together, learning new ways to improve upon the tachnology in his house. He would improve the vacuum at the cost of their toaster, or make their stove boil water faster with parts from the TV remote. His parents often got exasperated at his experimentation, but they were very open and nurturing of his creative spirit. This environment cultivated who we know today as Agent Decker.
His for st original creation came amongst his middle school years in the form of his earliest Orb technology. With only a handful of these early inventions, he played pranks on his teachers and classmates, who were equally annoyed and amazed at what he could do. He was placed in the school's program for the gifted, where he founded the Society of Highly Imaginative Technology, strategically named so that the school would have to put their acronym up everywhere.
The members of the Society followed him throughout high school and even college, seeing him as their leader, and best friend. The group was tightly knit and always worked to help one another. Here, the Orb technology made leaps and bounds in their capabilities.
When war encroached upon the world once more, Flynn knew what he had to do. He collaborated with the Society to transform the Orbs as they were into an effective weapon, and Flynn knew he could weird it perfectly. He'd known this technology all his life. He answered the call for heroes without hesitation, with that cocky grin still plastered to his face. He was born for this. He was Decker.

Place of Origin

Cleveland, Ohio, USA.

Family

His family consists of his parents, Lynn and Clement Lesline, both professors at the Cleveland Institute of Engineering, both openminded and caring individuals, as well as his little sister, Lucy, 9 years old, a dancer since she was 3. While Lucy can be very dramatic, she loves her brother unconditionally, and sees him as a role model.

Abilities

[Passive] OrbTech: Decker commands a fleet of 12 Orbs, black fist-sized metal balls that are surrounded by six glowing blue circles in their axis and can create walls of enervy with different atribute between them. Decker can attach these Orbs to enemies (for up to 3 seconds) and allies, but any Configuration made by an Orb given a movement command will break upon that movement. The Orbs give vision of enemies they are attatched to.

[Active] Configuration: Construct. - Decker commands at least 3 Orbs to form a wall of whatever shape the Orbs used can create. These walls last 4 seconds can either entirely block movement from both allies and enemies or allow allies through at the cost of only slowing enemies by 25%. Enemies that make contact with the wall take 10% of their max HP on damage every second. Every additional Orb used to construct the wall beyond the minimum increases the damage by 2% and the slow by 5%.
[Active] Configuration: Repair. -Decker commands at least 4 Orbs to create a field that lasts up to 10 seconds, but only 4 seconds after an enemy enters the field. This field heals allies and damages enemies for 5% of their max HP each second. Healing is reduced by 50% while enemies are in the field. Each extra Orb used to construct the field beyond the minimum increases the healing and damage by 2.5%, as well as granting 10% damage reduction to allies and 5% damage increase to enemies (only applies to damage Decker does not inflict.
[Active] Configuration: Transmit. - Decker commands at least 6 Orbs to create two walls that act as portals to anything that passes through, including projectiles. These portals last for 4 seconds.
[ULTIMATE Active] Configuation: Polarity. - Decker selects two Orbs, which polarize, pulling all allies attatched to an Orb to one of the Orbs selected, and all enemies attatched to an Orb to the other. The strength of the polarities creates a magnetic burst after the Orbs reach their destinations, giving allies a 50% movement speed buff and enemies a 50% movement speed slow for 4 seconds each.

Weapons

Besides his OrbTech, Decker uses a plasma gun that can fire either a long-range beam or an explosive orb.

@Lmpkio Oh, I was talking about the duration on the passive. Let me know how long you'd like the balls to remain attatched to their targets for the passive for clarity's sake?

As for the other abilities and their durations, I was thinking;

On Configuration: Construct, the wall would last 4 seconds, the slow would decay over 2 seconds once they get through the wall.

On Configuration: Repair, the field would last a total of 10 seconds so it could be placed in a defensive location for allies to poke and cone back to heal up. However, once an enemy enters the field, it only last up to 4 more seconds. So if a field was created on top of an enemy, it would last 4 seconds, if an enemy entered 3 seconds after creation than the field would have a total lifespan of 7 seconds, and if an enemy enters the field at 7 seconds the field would still end at 10 seconds, not 11.

For Configuration: Transmit, 3 second duration on the portals is fine but 4 seconds would probably be better for balance so enemies have more of a chance to enter? Also, it keeps with the even number theme.

For the Ultimate, I'd shorten the buff/slow durations to 4 seconds to nerf it a bit as well as keep it thematically.

Also, it should be noted that the physics of the Orbs are slightly different than Zenny's; the float through the air when given normal movement commands, but when an ability is activated (including attaching to an enemy) they warp to the target with a non blinding flash of blue light.

All of that sound ok with you?

Heroes Rise: An Overwatch-Inspired RP (New Owner! New Players Welcome!)

@Lmpkio Thanks! This is another character idea I've been playing around with and I'm glad to be able to implement it. 25% slow on Configuration: Construct seems totally fine, and 50% for Polarity as well. The Orbs were originally supposed to follow them indefinitely, but I definitely see the balance issue with that. Maybe 5 second duration to make Polarity a little more accessible? Balance compromises are always fine though, like I was looking to get a 0.25 second stun on enemies who come through the portal +0.25 seconds per extra ball on the portals (up to 1 second with 6 balls on each one), with which I'd think 3 second duration on the passive is totally balanced. Most of his crowd control is soft at this point, so a very brief hard cc would be wonderful.

Tales of Amarist: Young Heroes

The light of the morning sun cracked through the curtains of one Pharous Magni, unwelcome in the way it splashed across his eyelids, slowly rousing him from his deathly sleep. With a long, deep groan, he sat up, rubbing his eyes and yawning. Waking up in the morning was definitely a process for Mag. Laying haphazardly in a pile of bed dressings, he cast a sideways glance over the preparations that awaited him, his outfit set out, his books packed up and ready, mobile workbench locked up and awaiting transport. Damn, late-night Pharous was such an overachiever. Much different than morning Pharous, he thought to himself with a roll of his eyes.

He took his time standing up, basking in these last moments of blissful grogginess before the insidious perturbation of his own nudity closed in around him. Going too long without the soft caress of tempered leather and the solid reassurance of cold steel always made him anxious. Of course, his normal outfit would be entirely inappropriate for the academic environment, as he learned, though didn't care for, last year. After a whole year of strange glances and whispers over his attire, he decided this year to compromise. He pulled on the smooth black trousers they sent to him, the white undershirt and button-up, but then strapped on his dual-Mana Drive harness. These mana drives were newer models he'd been developing, much more compact while still retaining their previous capacity and efficiency. He then donned the black jacket he'd modified to fit snugly around the drives. The dressy black combat boots that came with the uniforms now coursed with the dark navy runes that his usual boots also had, allowing them to function the same way, however discreetly. Completing the ensemble with a pair of black fingerless gloves fitted with the same tech of his gauntlets, and a pair of wire-framed glasses that mimicked his goggles, he had found a way to retain all the functionality of his previous outfit while appearing to wear only the school uniform, sans the smallish Mana Drives that matched the outfit well appearing on his chest and back.

Picking up his mobile workbench, which looked more like a suitcase at this point, and shouldering his satchel of tomes, he made his way to the campus, arriving early, as always. He couldn't say he was nervous, but he was definitely a little excited; from simply what he'd learned already, he'd increased the quality of his product by magnitudes. He watched the students file in with his signature grin emotion drowning out the fact that he sat in one of his least favorite classes; Amaristine History.

Mine as well! New to this site, I thought I'd be alerted to posts in this thread, I have to sub to it.

Ahhh! Sorry, I got all carried away with the character. I made the edits, it should look better now! <3

A God's Gamble

Essentially, he weilds strong Light and Sound magic, can exert himself to the brink to have a limited bit of control over time or space for a period of time, and experiences visions of things fairly often, though he doesn't inherently know where or when the events he sees are taking place.
