I get it, I just had to tease about the curves. XD


hehe, no problem, hence why I responded similarly :P
I have a friend who's a model, so I bump into the odd model on occasion.

On a serious note, I picked said model because she looks how I would imagine the character, the fact that she's curvy as hell is part of that, but not the only deciding factor.

Just how in picking Calvin Johnson for Marcus, I've chosen someone physically fit with impressive muscles, but not just because out that.

ye get me?

..... Zach. Dude. You just found the most chesty latino lady with ass that you possibly could for that image, didn't you?


I've actually met her.

But otherwise, yes.
Name: Marcus D Charles
Age: 26
Occupation: 2016-2017 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Tight End.
Family life: Father/Mother/2 Sisters/4 Nephews. Unknown status.

Height: 6'6
Weight: 120kg
Blood type: A
Immune: No
Gear: Not conforming to the stereotype of football players, as a man with somewhat of an interest in science fiction and horror, Marcus has adhered to the zombie survival skills detailed by one Max Brooks. He carries a machete along with three water bottles (two currently filled) and enough dry food to last him a few weeks. In the way of firearms, he currently possess a Colt Python, along with 24 rounds. He currently wears a hiking pack to carry his equipment in, which also contains a bedroll and wind protector. He still carries his pads and helmet with him, simply for added defence.

Bio:

One of the few British players in the National Football League, Marcus grew up in the city of Canterbury. His father a teacher and mother a successful author, his background was hardly a tough one. Throughout all levels of education, Marcus took sport very seriously, preferring it over academics, although he remained very much on the positive side of average in that regard. It was basketball, rather than American Football, that first earned his interest, to which he played at a national level from a young age. Eventually, his talent earned him an international scholarship at the University of Texas, studying English Literature while playing for the Longhorns basketball program.

It was during this time that his powerful build and general interest in sport drew him to American football, or at least, developed his interest in it. Halfway through his first year, he was eventually convinced by the coaching staff to becoming a redshirt for the team, spending the first year simply at training, while playing basketball, before switching fully over to American Football when his second came around and he could at last play for the team. Playing two successful seasons at tight-end, Marcus would enter the draft in place of earning his degree, being drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Earning a somewhat inflated degree of renown for joining the limited ranks of British players to reach the NFL, Marcus played somewhat above the more realistic expectations of his ability, although didn't quite measure up to the level of hype surrounding him. Nevertheless, both of his seasons were considered reasonable successes.

When the Rising took place, Marcus, along with most of the team, were away to play the St. Louis Rams, the public spectacle increased greatly in an effort to draw attention away from the impending disaster. What occurred instead, was a large mass of humans sitting in one place. It remains unknown, and likely always will be, where the first infected came from, if a member of the crowd fell to the plague while attending, or one broke in from the outside, but soon the stadium erupted into panic and anger. Marcus, along with a number of players, cheerleaders, staff and fans escaped on the coach that had shuttled the team from the airport, narrowly escaping both the zombies and the violent mass of people. The unity of this group of survivors soon broke down, along with the coach. Marcus again engineered a narrow escape, along with his current travelling companion, Maela Alba, as a number of players turned violent, the loud conflict attracting a nearby hoard. The pair have no idea if any of the group survived, but none escaped the same way as them.

Since then, the pair have been wandering, Marcus' brute strength newly developed affinity for firearms offering protection, while Maela, somewhat surprisingly, provides both survivalist and self-defence capabilities.

Name: Maela Hernandez de Alba
Age: 23
Occupation: Tampa Bay Bucs Cheerleader
Family Life: Sprawling Latin family, status unknown.


Height: 5'7
Weight: 63kg
Blood type: B
Immune: Yes
Gear: Composite hunting bow and quiver, with 12 arrows, trailmix and a couple of weeks of dried food. Like her male companion, she also carries a hiking pack with her, containing a bedroll and another wind protector. On top of that, her pack contains a limited amount of lighter fluid, unless she's given it to Marcus to carry. She has three water bottles, one is currently full, along with a pack of sterilization tables.

Bio:

Growing up in rural Florida among a family of lower-middle class Cubans (second generation), Maela, despite being fairly typical for a head cheerleader in her public mannerisms (high school Queen Bee etc) she was both intelligent, and had a less than usual upbringing. With a father and uncle who continued to hunt, both for fun and for meat, she was taught to do so as she grew up, becoming somewhat of a survivalist, even if it never manifested in her public life. A state champion in regards to cheerleading, Maela continued to do so when she attended USF to study Finance. Not entirely a prodigy, Maela was nevertheless a successful student, in most aspects of student life, becoming somewhat more open about the non-linear interests she possessed, still remaining very much a social butterfly at the same time.

Through the last year of her degree and consequentially completing it, Maela auditioned for the Tampa Bay Bucs cheerleaders, earning her place on the squad even as she earned her degree, for the present, sticking with cheerleading rather than going into the professional world of finance. Despite a mediocre, if improving, performance by the Bucs in football, their cheerleaders remained a particular highlight and Maela enjoyed her time in spotlight, even if it eventually placed her in one of the most dangerous situations during the early days of the rising. Her short-term boyfriend, a friend of Marcus', was among those who managed to escape with them, although more likely it was Maela acting swiftly that saved all three of them, getting to the coach in time to avoid being ripped apart, by both living and dead. Unfortunately, her lover was rather less level headed than both herself and Marcus, being one of the players starting to turn violent in their panic, and she opted to not wake him to flee with the pair. His fate is unknown, but after witnessing his stressed actions, she cares little or less.

It was with her guidance that both Marcus and herself located the gear they currently carry despite the chaos of the immediate rising, before keeping their heads low, Maela providing food beyond their emergency dried rations through her ability to hunt, while Marcus provided some much needed muscle and intimidation. Recently, they have grown close enough that Maela has began to teach Marcus how to survive himself, previously having avoided doing so for fear that he'd feel he no longer needed her aid, not that he could ever catch up with her so quickly, only that is how he would perceive it.

If you plan on doing another 'pre-mission' scene, tell me very soon before I begin to move us on. <3


If you can wait so long, I've just about healed up, should be able to write our pre-mission scene tomorrow.
Points about self representation aside, the issue is evidently far beyond 'more Russians live here, so this bit should be Russian,' because the loss of the Crimea would be a huge blow to the general national economy, and its ability to remain independent from Russia, that said, it's still unfair to discount the views of the Pro-Russians just because they're inconvenient for the pro-west faction.

Complex stuff man, this politics.
Name: Emma Frost
Age: 27
Alias: N/A
Appearance:



Abilities:

An Alpha-level mutant, Emma Frost would be considered an equal to, if only marginally weaker, a telepath than Charles Xavier were he still alive, and potentially greater than Jean Grey herself (although she lacks any telekinetic ability beyond latent ability which triggers during great emotional stress). Despite potentially being weaker than the two more famous X-men, Emma possess a superhuman level of control over her telepathy, able manipulate others as little more than puppets, even being able to mask her influence from other telepaths. Individuals with no telepathic defence can be disabled in seconds, while even Xavier and Jean combined would think twice before rushing into a mental duel with the woman (not to say she'd have much of a chance of winning, but she could certainly leave them mentally exhausted).

A more recent discovery is her ability to transform into organic diamond, turning her into a self contained unit, immune to the downsides of biological processes and possessing superhuman strength, endurance and stamina. Equally she becomes immune to all telepathic attacks, or even any attempts to read her thoughts, at the expense of being unable to use her own telepathy. While in the diamond form, Emma becomes emotionally cold (completely dead to any emotion if she spends more than a few hours in the form) thus she may often use it simply to think straight. Like normal diamond, Emma can shatter if struck on a 'flaw' although as long as she can be put 'back together' mostly, or remain within close proximity of her shards, she can reform (over a few hours if not pieced together, immediately if done so).

Personality:

Emma Frost has always lived in comfort, at least physically, although at great emotional cost to herself. A father with no care for his children beyond forging a legacy and a substance-abusing mother, despite the comforts of her life, Emma is well adapted to trust and depend on no one but herself. Despite her hereditary wealth, her current status is self-made, something she is fiercely proud of, only accepting her father's money after his death, and her own fortune made. Emma is not, however, emotionally stunted, she is capable, perhaps even more so due to her telepathy, of great spikes of rage, passion or affection, having personally protected many enclaves of lesser mutants in her time, despite the outwards appearance of a selfish socialite (see Iron Man for similarity)

Perhaps the side of her personality which jars the most with her fellow 'good' mutants is her view on humanity, even other mutants with a lack of telepathic defence. Despite having formed deep emotional bonds with many, as a collective Frost sees the human masses as little more than tools to her whim, able to manipulate and coerce them to build a better future for mutantkind. While not actively seeking the demise or replacement of humanity as the Brotherhood continue to do, there seems much doubt as to any upward limit she would place on the number of humans she would sacrifice to protect a single mutant life, assuming the question is referring to humans and mutants she was not acquainted with.

Bio:

Emma Grace Frost was the second daughter and third child (One older brother, one younger sister) of Winston and Hazel Frost, one of many heirs to a powerful family stemming from European Merchants arriving at the very dawn of colonial America. Unknown to her family, all three Frost daughters were mutants, although the X-gene manifested less harshly in the other two sisters. Throughout school, Emma would be crippled with migraines, in part leading to consistently low grades and social ineptitude during her time at the Snow Valley School for Girls. As the migraines subsided, her powers manifested, she began to hear the thoughts of classmates, and then focused it, using the power to excel in all aspects of school life, in the course of her last three years at the school becoming both a honour roll student and the Queen Bee of a large 'friend' group. Her world broke down (over-dramatic) when her elder sister revealed to their father the illegal relationship she had begun with her favourite teacher, resulting in him being fired and Emma spending her last year of High School at a new school, one that she soon 'ruled' as she had the other.

Her father felt university was unnecessary for his daughters, only footing the bill for her brother, Christian, who Emma was close to, to study at Harvard. Emma response to this was to fake a hostage situation, take her father's money (who only paid after Emma managed to make the ransom become a media event), take the money and disappear. Emma Robinson enrolled at Empire State University, the specifics of her new identity remain an unknown. During her time at the university, a man who she truly cared for turned on her when her mutation was revealed due to the actions of the Brotherhood, solidifying her negative views towards most of humanity. During this event the Brotherhood kidnapped Emma and attempted to 'install' her into Cerebro and wipe out humanity. Evidently their plan failed, although this brought Emma into contact with the X-men for the first time and while she continued to communicate with Xavier, she refused to join the school and the ranks of their 'superhero' squad, instead choosing to focus on building her new project 'The Frost Foundation,' having revealed her true lineage once more, although refusing to accept the mantle of her father's heir, after her brother had been interred in a mental health facility for severe depression and her sisters had proven...overly reckless (details remain a family secret). Eventually she accepted her father's money and estate, but after the man had died, the stress of a substance-abusing wife finally working through to the cold heart of Mr Frost (although, his own drinking problem didn't help, it developed due to the former).

During her time as the head of the Frost Foundation, Frost has been involved, indirectly, in many global events. It is rumoured Stark has her on speed dial and she had monthly dinners with Nick Fury. Her name was a must have feature on any high society event, at least, until she publicly revealed her nature as a mutant, stating that unlike many in the cruel world in which they lived, she would no longer have to hide behind a façade of a weaker self, taking on the mantle of Homo Superior. She remains a socialite, if a more controversial one.

Post-Genosha, Emma found further purpose among the X-Tinction team, radical enough to be willing to act decisively, without giving into the corruption of the Brotherhood, even if she was a more hardline member of the team, clashing with, if never actively rebelling against, their leader Cyclops. Despite the other members of the team hardly being scroungers, the Frost Foundation largely foots the bill for the team, much in the same way Stark Industries provides for the Avengers, Emma even jokingly offering to 'chip bits of herself off' to afford further equipment for the team, in the event she ever ran out of money to provide, which seems unlikely.

Misc.:
Embarrassing side note;

Having to drop Emma Frost due to not wanting to control too many factors once the plot gets rolling, so, she's free again, for players.

actually...Domino is probably going to go drink with Thor for a bit, so Tony can meet up with her there :)


Was about to throw Tony into the scene anyway, so there we go.
Quite possibly going to make two characters for the walkers, in a fairly cliche pairing of a Cheerleader/football player. Although their probably mostly hate each other.
