@charizard
Yeah, we're trying to get this rp back up and running again, if we can, and it'd be great to get some new players to join in, what with some of the previous rpers becoming inactive. :3

@dragonical
You might want to rework your form quite a bit, since it's very vague and based off of an actual comic character instead of just being a character of your own. Keep in mind that this is a semi-lit roleplay, and your form isn't very descriptive at all. I mean, the fact that your form has literally one word for the personality kind of clearly indicates that you probably should put more than a little more work into it. :\

---

@xCharizardx: Yep, like Sandevi already said. Feel free to drop your form here anytime. :]

@dragonical: Like Sandevi already pointed out, your form is way too vague. A mere word isn't nearly enough to describe something complex like a personality and what kind of a person has no interests whatsoever? (What we like tells quite a bit of us and that's why that seemingly insignificant part is there in the form.)

Furthermore, it's not really stated in the first post but one the ideas of this RP is to create your own heroes, not use already existing ones.

Also, you're missing the password.

Given the reasons above, I cannot accept your character into the RP as it is.


@Everyone: Alright, so far I've heard back from AlStokes and he's dropping out due to a lack of time. I'm gonna be updating the first post later with which characters are NPCs for now and such.

(Sorry. I ran out of ideas. Would it be okay if I made a green Hawk, as thin as Dove yet as War Loving as Hawk, named Harmonic?)

---

Name:William Root
Alias:The Harmonic
Age:30
Gender:Male
Alliance:Squad One
Interests:None

Appearance:Like Dove from the comics, but Green.

Personality:Very peace-loving, yet very war-loving, Root named himself Harmonic cause he is harmony between peace and war.

Abilities/Super power:Making people Angry or Happy.

History:Root is a office worker until he received his powers. He keeps his boss happy with his powers.

Extra information:None

Password:Noodles

@dragonical: I'm starting to think that maybe this RP isn't best suited for you. I don't intend to be mean, or even want to, but you're being too vague with your character again. You left the interests field empty again and I don't know how that personality even works. Being war-loving and peace-loving are the exact two opposites and someone being both extremes seems highly unlikely. Unless he has a split personality but playing a character like that requires quite the bit of understanding of the phenomenon.

There's honestly way too little information of your character, I can't picture him or how he'd work with the team and that's not a good thing.

Furthermore, I love it when people don't have OP superpowers but majorly underpowered superpowers are an issue as well. Controlling emotions can be quite useful but going by your vague description, I can't tell what the limits of William's powers are. Can he only control those two emotions? For how long? How close does he have to be to the target? Does using his powers require great concentration? Can he alter multiple people's emotions at once? Are the effects subtle or big and sudden?

This RP is what some people prefer to call 'semi-literate', which means I'm expecting people to use good spelling and write multiple sentences so that the RP moves forward with every post. Length isn't everything when it comes to RPing, I know that, but people have different tastes and that means there are different RPs when it comes to length comfort as well.

Oh wait, Sandevi's second character already has the power to manipulate feelings and that reason only is enough for me to reject your character for now. :d

Done!

Name: Theia Kamy
Alias: Terran
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Alliance: She will align with Squad One.
Interests: She enjoys pottery, sculpture, anything to do with geology, she often likes to meditate when she has free time.

Appearance: Theia stands 5'3'', her pixie cut brown hair is always ruffled and wild. Her face is a soft heart shape, with her bangs coming down over her eyebrows. Her light grey eyes move around slightly when she's not wearing a bandana over them, as she's blind. Her outfit is simple, a black zip-up hoodie with no pattern, a plain grey t-shirt under the sweatshirt, a dark. A dark grey pair of jeans, and no shoes, she goes barefoot everywhere. Around her right wrist is a black bracelet, a solid ring of a pure black material that seems to shimmer when it catches the suns rays just right.

Personality: She's usually pretty quiet, and prefers solitude to being in a huge group. But if it's for a good cause she'll sacrifice a bit of her comfort for the common good. She also has, though she'll never admit it, she has a decent streak of pride. She'll never accept help unless there's no other option, and will often snap at people who give her help without asking. Deep down she does appreciate the help, but knows that if she accepts help without protest, people will think she's as weak as her vision is.

Abilities/Super power: Control over metal ~ She can manipulate all kinds of metal but her control starts to fade at about thirty feet. The particles have to be at least as big as grains of sand, so no controlling the iron in blood. If she grabs onto a piece of metal, or stands on a piece, she can make the piece float and therefore give herself flight. But as she's blind that doesn't work out well.

Enhanced senses and physical being ~ Aside from her sight, her sense of smell, hearing, taste, and touch are greater than those of a normal human's. She uses her sense of touch to navigate through her world. As she walks, her footsteps send out vibrations that she receives and pieces together to form a vague idea of her surroundings. Her hearing aids her so she doesn't walk into things as well. Her physical strength is more than someone would think for someone of her size. She can't punch through a wall, but could lift something at least her size with less trouble than a human equal in size.

History: I went on a bit of a rampage with my writing so I put it in a spoiler... Open at your own risk...


Extra information: I don't think so. Oh, I often get really into details when the mood strikes me, so if I go to into details with something, please don't hesitate to tell me to tone it down...

Password: Password

Everything seems to be in order. Accepted! I'm on my phone now but I'll add your character to the list later.

I think I may have written a summary of what has happened in the IC a while back. I'll see if I can find it and copy paste it for you. Or you can go read the whole IC (link at the top of the first post) if you feel like it. :b

Alright, here's the earlier recap:


The stuff that happened after I posted that recap:

someplayers's character Allan fixes Johnny up with his powers but passes out from exhaustion. So the group now has two unconscious lads in their hands. The assassin takes a shot at Ricky from a hiding spot but misses. The people gathered at the school are now alerted of the presence of the danger. Tara manages to locate the assassin thanks to her powers but grows weak. The assassin decides to go for closer confrontation and hides his charge with some smoke bombs. He throws two grenades over at the heroes and they're about to go off in a few seconds.

At the yogurt shop, Derek and Trix's chat comes to an end and Trix leaves.

And I think that's where things are now. I might be forgetting something though. :d

(Saw Charizard join this and thought i might as well throw my hat in the ring as well :P)

Name: Vannister Krakalenge
Alias: Genocide
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Alliance: Squad One I guess. (How many of the original RP'ers are going to come back, do you think? Depending on who comes back, will certain positions become available again? I.e, villain team/loner)
Interests: He devotes much of his free time to reading and researching, especially ancient Arabic texts. He regularly takes long walks, and when I say long, I mean an average of two and a half hours. He finds them calming, saying that it helps center his energy. His fascination with peace and quiet does conflict with his other obsession though. Clocks. He can't get enough of them, spending long periods of time watching the gears turn and click.

Appearance:

Personality: Quiet usually, preferring to listen to the others talk rather than engaging. Companionate and tranquil, if you have something heavy on your mind, he's always ready to listen and help. This is not to say he is perfect. His temper is a volatile thing indeed, which has lead him to try and find the peace in little things. He hates his power, feeling as though he is bound to Squad One, continually atoning for sins not yet committed.

Abilities/Super power: Inner Demon: His power could be considered similar to that of the Hulk, however the two are not nearly as similar as it seems. Vannister can, at any time, release the demon within him. The creature, calling itself Genocide, is roughly twelve feet tall, with rough black skin stretched right across its bones. It's arms and legs and thin and elongated, both tipped with short claws. Don't be deceived though. The thing is incredibly strong, easily tossing trucks and smashing through walls. It's most awful feature however, is its gruesome visage. It's has the same face as Vannister, but with deep black eyes. The eyes somehow seem to cast shadows, as a flashlight casts light. They fangs in its mouth are so large they have torn its mouth open in a grotesque smile. Behind those fangs lay its iconic weapon. Several long gray tentacles, which can stretch out up to twenty feet. Each is lined with barbed suckers, preventing escape from its grasp. The Demon itself is nearly unkillable. This is not to say it can't be hurt. Bullets, bombs, high velocity railroad spikes, these all do the same thing to it as they would a normal human. They just can't kill it. Something pierces its brain? That's just going to piss it off. Arms and legs blown off? It's still got teeth. It can be detained for sure, as long as whatever is holding it takes less force to break than lifting a semi. Now, let me explain how this is not very OP. The act of changing is very, VERY, hard on Vannister's body. He can usually only do it once a day, or else he risks dying from cardiac arrest. While he is a Demon he retains his mind, however it's like he is looking through a filter. What would be unthinkable to Vannister, may seem like no big deal to Genocide. Eating corpses? Par for the course. This can lead to terrible tragedies if he's not careful. Because of this, he is very reluctant to use his power, even if his life is in danger. There is another way he can change though. Rage. Should he be pushed over the edge he will change, however with this change, Genocide will be in full control. Luckily this change reverts within a few hours. A Demon can cause a lot of havoc in a few hours though.


History: His history is a bit murky, as he doesn't talk about it. We know he was a medical student, close to finally starting his two years of nurse residency. From there is basically unknown. He simply showed up one day. There were rumors of a mass killing at a hospital in the next city over, but a link between it and the man could never be confirmed.

(Hopefully everything is good. I'd rather not have to come up with another character on the fly XD)

---

I haven't heard back from the other people I PMed yet, the characters marked as 'might move to NPCs' are those people's.

Though even if all of them decide to come back, I think there could be room for another villain if you'd rather go for that.

The number of each kind of character type is kinda outdated especially with all this hassle with inactive characters and new ones coming in. I need to look at it and stuff but I'm kinda busy with homework for the weekend. Which is why I probably won't be posting In the IC just yet. You guys are free to do so if you want to though.

Anyway, Vannister is accepted, I'll add him to the character list later. There's a recap of IC happenings in the post above yours.

Name: Ethan Smoak
Alias: Shiver
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Alliance: Member of Squad One
Interests: || Mythology || Reading Books || Horror Movies ||

Appearance: Ethan is seen as having short dark blonde hair, usually styled up. And his eyes are shade of dark blue.
Ethan is quite short, around 5'6. He is usually wearing a light blue zipped hoodie, along with a black t-shirt underneath. This is accompanied with a pair of black jeans, a belt and a pair of blue and white trainers.
On his left hand, on his middle finger, he wears a black ring with a strip of blue which runs through the middle of it. Ring Image
As for hiding his identity, Ethan prefers to keep it simple by placing a light blue mask over his eyes.

Personality: Ethan has a realist personality. He doesn't try to hope too much, as usually you end up let down. He is always prepared for the worst case scenario.
He can work alone, or in a team. When working in a team, he prefers to have their backs, instead of them having his. He can trust people a lot, but he hates having to rely on others.

Abilities/Super power: Ice Manipulation (Cryokinesis)
Ethan is able to shape and manipulate ice to his will.

Although Ethan is unable to manipulate ice in it's liquid form (Water), by coming into close proximity with water he is able to transform it into ice, thus allowing him to manipulate it. He is unable to generate his own ice, as their is not enough moisture in the air to do so. Due to this, he usually carries around small vials of ice attached to the belt of his jeans for easy use.

Ethan has only been able to manipulate small amounts of ice without becoming fatigued, thus only allowing him to control ice within a certain radius.
When changing water to ice, he is able to transform a few hundred feet of water at any time.

History: Ethan Smaok first discovered he has an ability only a few years ago, and is relatively new to using it.
It all happened one day at the beach when he was with a group of his friends. They in were in the ocean, along with the many other people at the beach. Suddenly, the water surrounding him began to turn to ice and it continued spreading. The ice stopped after a few hundred feet, but Ethan, along with everyone else in the area, were stuck in the ice. Eventually, everyone was released from the ice with only minor injuries. No one had known the cause, but Ethan knew. The ice had began around him and spread outward; yet while he was trapped, he was unable to feel the cold radiating off the ice. He has caused it.
Ethan kept his ability secret since then. Eventually he grew old enough, and moved away from his parents.
A few months after that, Ethan was approached by Daniel. He had said he knew that Ethan was the cause of the incident. Ethan originally played it off that he had know idea what Daniel was talking about. Eventually though, Daniel managed to convince Ethan to join the team and meet the others.
When Daniel betrayed everyone, Ethan was surprised. He was usually prepared for the worst outcome, but he was never able to imagine this one.

Extra information: Blue is his favourite colour.

Aaaand accepted.

I'll work on the first post and update things later today when it gets too late for my brain to do school stuff.

Name: Lyric
Alias: Howling wolf
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Alliance: Squad One
Interests: Music(but can't sing), canine animals, mythology, forests, traveling

Appearance: Lyric is athletic man with blond hair as well as light purple eyes. He has black spiked snakebites. He is always seen with his MP3 player attached to a wire that which is wrapped around his neck and with the earphones always in his ears. He wears huge black sweater with white shirt underneath and thight black jeans.
For fighting crime he made himself jacket that looks like on this picture. He pulls it so it covers half of his face and than he orients by radar like sounds.

Personality: Lyric usually sleeps or listens to music. He is apathetic and lazy, not showing any interest in most of things. He hates when someone wakes him up. Rarely, he decides to do something, like fight against crime. When he decides something is worth his time he will put all his time to it. He loves canine like animals, becouse he spent most of his childhood with his wolfdogs. He will often not hear what are people are talking either becouse he listens to music or he doesn't want to hear anything. He ignores orders.

Abilities/Super power: Sound Manipulation - Lyric can create, shape and manipulate sound. From the point of view of physics, sound is considered to be the waves of vibratory motion themselves, whether or not they are heard by the human ear.
Lyric can mimic, intensify, hush, and distort, as well warp, strengthen, echo, speed up, and slow down sound, using it as a powerful physical force and high-speed movement.
At low frequencies, sound is potentially fatal to living beings by causing internal damage, while high frequencies cannot be heard by normal humans but can be used for sonar-like effects. Since sound vibrations can travel through the air, ground, water and any form of medium, defense by using physical barriers is difficult. The vibrations can also affect at a molecular level.
In essence, sound is an invisible, deadly weapon and a versatile tool.
But for controlling sound he need's to either produce it or use huge amount of energy to control existing sound. Both leave him really exhausted after small amount of time. Expecially if it's higher or lower sound than normal human ear can hear. He also needs longer time to rest if he himself produced sound.

History: Lyric's both parents were a musicians. His mother was lead singer and his father was guitarist and second singer in their band. They moved to countryside for quiet place for both of them to be in better position to create music. One of first memories Lyric has is his mother singing him to sleep. She had beautiful voice. He grew up playing with pack of wolfdogs. When he was five, his parents sent him to singing classes. Then his singing teacher said: ''I never heard someone with no talent and I thought I will never hear anyone without talent, but your son... well he it's impossible to learn him anything.'' He remember listening to them and than crying while going home. He just loved music. That night he didn't sleep and when his wolfdogs started howling he went out and joined them. He howled sadly like he was hurt, and he was. Soon dogs started to yelp, going away from him. Everything started shaking. And his parents woke up but he just lied and cryed in backyard by that time. They thought he was scared because of 'earthquake' that just happened. His parents were caring for him up to his eight year. Then they left. They didn't really left, they just weren't at home anymore. All the time they were on tours. When they were home they just practiced, without looking after him. Now someone did 'care' about him. His parents were paying people to teach him at home and even housekeeper to clean house and cook for him. He had piano class when he discovered his power again, to that time incident that happened when he was five was forgotten. He was playing piano and, as usual, his old instructor was yelling at him. He got fed up and just wanted for him to shut up. He was 10 then. His instructor stopped yelling what was weird, so he looked beyond himself, only to see his instructor holding his throat and have freaked out look on his face, like he lost his voice. Lyric said to him: ''Are you fine? Can you talk?'' With smile, he remembered what happened when he was five and his smile grew. ''You can talk now.'' He said and his instructor screamed in horror. Lyric then went to his room only to get call from his parents next day to tell him he isn't going to have anymore classes of piano. He 'played' with his new power.
When he was 14 he went to shop for himself and he was attacked on his way home. He used his power and decided he will use it to fight crime. He made him self a wolf mask and used his black fur vest for creating jacket he wears when fighting crime.

Extra information: He is more likely to listen to you if you say something about canine creatures.

Password: I don't know. Everything in my mind is like noodles.

One of the main ideas of this RP was to have the heroes fight against someone they knew and trusted. Lots of people having characters that weren't a part of the team previously kinda ruins that.

@viki123: I'll have no problems accepting your character if you're okay with him already being a part of S1 (given his age, not the whole 5 years the team fought crime).

Since there's already quite a bit new players and we still have some old ones and NPCs, I think there's plenty enough of characters as it is. So I declare this RP as closed for now.

---

I am okay with that :D

Awesome. :]

What is less awesome is the fact that I hit the character limit for a single post while I was editing the first post. There simply is no room for the whole character list in the first post and therefore, I wrote the thing in google docs. You can find it here.

Please tell me if you have any problems with it. You should be able to only view it and not edit. If that's not the case, let me know and I'll fix it.

...Sheesh, if I have to edit and fancify that thing one more friggin' time, I'm gonna flip. Not even kidding, that took way more time and effort than it should have. <_<

---

I had added an extra few sentences onto the Powers/Ability section of my forum a while ago. It must have been after you had tried to edit the main page ^^'

It's nothing major, so if it's too much of a hassle to change it on the document, it's fine :)

Alright, thanks for telling me. And it's fine, changing something minor like that isn't a problem.


I first coded the fanciness to the list by hand, only to notice it didn't fit entirely into the first post. So after a while of panicking and frustration, I figured I should make a google docs. So I copy-pasted the whole thing there. Then I proceeded to remove all the manually coded fanciness from the document and then edit the same fanciness back with the docs tools.

All that took me almost three hours... Never again.

A little blue Mudkip pokes their head in.

Hallo again~ I'm sheepish to admit that I may or may not be at least the slightest bit disoriented since it HAS been a pretty long time since I roleplayed here. Anywaaaaay, I was scrolling through old posts and whatnot to get back into the feel and I came across the old post warning me to not give Mattie all the power ups oh so conveniently at the beginning. I hope I didn't breach that by allowing her temporary access to her psychic communication, because to be honest, I was stumped on how to get her to the outside of HQ (where all the action is fantastically exploding) logically. Seeing as I did leave while letting her eat her yoghurt (if I'm reading right, the same place where Derek is), I made her clichely storm out now anddddd uh, I blame sleep deprivation. (I'm so sorry please forgive me *cowers behind computer screen*)

---

It's fine, as long as you don't make it something she can do regularly just yet.

Also, it's nice to see you guys have jumped into this RP so quickly but I'm currently trying to finish an essay for tomorrow so I can't reply to the RP just yet. So it would be nice if you guys could restrain yourself for now until I can post with the assassin and give him a chance to defend himself. :,]
