The X Class [PG16 / Not Started / Always Accepting / Host Change]

[Tormented]

An Original RP adapted from Marvel's X-Men and Originally created by Renegade

Hosted and Co-Hosted by: ~Renegade~, Tormented, Kyng, and Jake the Sage

 

Much like the world depicted in the successful comic series X-Men, our story takes us to a universe where racism has yet another leg to stand on. Those that inhabit our planet know too well that society makes judgments too quickly, based on skin color, physical characteristics, sexuality, etc. Well in a parallel universe, another ingredient has been added to the distasteful stew. Mutants.

 

Mutants have always been a part of this 'other Earth', and while they have not always been known, they have been there. Many of the legends surrounding human mythology are actually stories of 'normal' people witnessing the incredible acts of mutants. Every time a civilization begins to flourish, these special beings start to become a more of a common sight. Each society seems them differently. The Greeks saw them as gods. But we, we see them as freaks.

 

Mutants are not excepted in the current era, they are seen as deformities. Much of the world acts as if they are a dangerous to the existence of mankind, and many think of them as a lesser being. Of course there are those few courageous individuals that see these mutants for what they truly are…people.

 

This division of opinions has led to the creation of several factions warring with one another. Only one can win if peace between all will be achieved…but that isn't to say that only one is right.

[spoiler=Database]
[spoiler=Important Terminology]
1. Mutant: A mutant is a fictional character in a fictional universe created by Marvel Comics and adapted for this RP. A mutant is someone that has different DNA than their parents. These mutations often result in extreme adaptations, also known as super powers. They may also result in physical changes, such as the growth of wings or a tail. Mutants are classified by their power level. See <Mutant Classification>
2. X-GENE: The X-GENE is the DNA complex responsible for the superpowers of mutants. The X-GENE can remain dormant in an individual and has the potential to remain dormant for many generations.
3. Mutations: Also known as extreme adaptations or superpowers, mutations are the result of the meddling of the X-GENE. Mutations vary depending on the individual. Mutations caused by the X-GENE usually occur when a carrier hits puberty or is put in an extremely dangerous or stressful situation. While rare, it is not unheard of for a mutation to occur at birth. This is most common in an offspring of two active mutants.
4. The Vanguards of Humanity: Also known as The Vanguards, this faction is made entirely of extremely anti-mutant believers. They believe that the X-GENE and Mutants are an abomination and seek to control this epidemic. There has been talk of extermination, but these are only rumors and nothing has been confirmed. The Vanguards' main base is located in Washington D.C. and has the support of several national governments.
5. The Genesis Foundation: Known simply as The Foundation, this is a faction consisting of purely mutants. They believe themselves to be the next step of evolution and believe it is their right to rule over the 'normal' people. This faction came into being after the arrival of The Vanguards of Humanity in response to the rumors of extermination. The Foundation's base of operations is found on an island in the Pacific Ocean that has been named Genesis. It has been declared a purely Mutant State.
6. The Nexians: This faction consists primarily of mutants, but does contain some non-mutants. This faction came into being to be a middle ground between The Foundation and The Vanguards, seeking equality for mutants but without the need for extermination and dictatorship. The Nexians are stationed in the Queen Elizabeth Islands and live in hiding.
7. Containment Collars: Collars that are able to suspend the powers of mutants. These are used by all factions but are incredibly expensive to make and thus are extremely rare and highly valued.
8. Containment Fields: Used primarily by The Vanguards and The Foundation, Containment Fields act as prisons for Mutants. They shut down their powers and are supposedly inescapable.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Mutant Classification]

• OMEGA: Omega mutants are those with the highest level of power. They are the most powerful of the Alphas.
• ALPHA: Alpha mutants have very powerful and useful mutant powers and no drawbacks such as changes in appearance. They are perhaps the most feared mutants.
• BETA: Betas are as powerful as alphas but they have some physical changes as a drawback.
• GAMMA: Gammas are also powerful mutants but they suffer from large physical changes. These changes make their lives very hard and make them very easy to tell they are a mutant.
• DELTA: Delta mutants have low levels of power than Alphas. Like Alphas, they have no physical changes. Most Deltas do not even know they are mutants.
• EPSILON: Epsilons have minor superhuman powers and major physical flaws. They are easily recognized just by looking at them.

[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Banned Powers/Abilities]
In this RP, characters will be allowed to possess special abilities or skills of great variety and usefulness. However, there are certain limitations.The following is a list of banned powers and abilities that will not be accepted in any characters you submit. Try and stick with one if at all possible; it can be developed later.

NOTE: This list is courtesy of Lovely Lady and Aisu, with some minor modifications by Renegade. Thanks for typing it up!

NOTE: If you would like to use some of the less-ridiculous powers listed below and you have implemented a limitation that would make it completely fair and balanced, PM the Host(s) with the details before you use it. Exceptions to this list are at my exclusive discretion.

=============

Power Shifting
The ability to disperse one power and take on another. The reason why is quite obvious. With this power, you could have every power imaginable.

Unlimited Power Snatching
The ability to extract the power from someone rendering them powerless for a remainder of the RP.

Limitless Power Absorbtion
The ability to absorb someone's power for as long as the user wishes.

Power Reflector
The ability to deflect all powers.
This is just another way of Godmodding which is prohibited.

Power Bestowal
The ability to grant others a specific power.
This would be greatly unfair to the opposing Faction since someone could grant each member of their own faction a power to beat the other faction.

Negation Power
The ability to cancel out any other person's power.
Obviously this would cause disruption in a battle. All this person needs to do is run around and tag everyone in the other faction and bam! Instant domination. Totally unfair.

Biological manipulation
The ability to control all aspects of a living creature's biological make-up. This includes, but is not limited to, genetic alterations, physical distortion/augmentations, healing, disease, and biological functions.
The user of this power has the capability of never being hit in the heart- or virtually dying for that matter.

Temporal duplication
The ability to bring past and future versions of oneself back to the present.
Bringing yourself from the past and future messes with the storyline and confuses things easily. Best to avoid this power all together.

Invulnerability
The ability to be immune to one or more forms of physical damage.
Two simple words...GOD MODDING!

Matter ingestion
The ability to consume any sort of matter without any ill effects on the user.
The power's description says it all.

Reactive adaptation/evolution
The ability to develop a resistance or immunity to whatever they were injured by or exposed to. This effect can be permanent or temporary.

Omniscience
The ability to know anything and everything.

Domination/Mind Control
The ability to alter the perceptions of others, and general ability to control the actions of others with the mind.

Astral trapping
The ability to cause an astral projection to stay on the astral plane, usually in one specific place.
This is just a tad irrelevant. You may have the ability to release your essence into the astral planes, but not being able to trap others.

Memory manipulation
The ability to erase or enhance the memories of another.

Possession
The ability to take control and inhabit the body of an individual with impunity.

Animation/Re-Animation
The ability to bring inanimate objects to life or to free an individual from petrification or the ability to restore a once animate object to life in an unconsious state under manipulation. In certain cases (such as sorcery), this may be acceptable.

Disintegration
The ability to disintegrate matter through touch or through beams.

Immortality
The ability to live forever. This may be complete immortality encompassing invulnerability, partial invulnerability to all but specific events or simply an inability to age normally. This is not out of the question, it just needs to be reasonably balanced

Resurrection
The ability to come back to life after being killed.

Intangibility or phasing
This ability is a bit tricky. I would avoid staying away from it, unless a balancing factor is introduced.

Molecular manipulation
The ability to mentally manipulate the molecules of objects and/or one's self on a molecular level.

Probability manipulation
The ability to alter probability, causing unlikely things to happen or likely things to not happen. Again, this is not entirely impossible, but difficult to balance

Reality warping
The ability to change or manipulate reality itself.

Time manipulation
The ability to affect the flow of time by slowing, accelerating, reversing, or stopping it.

Energy conversion
The ability to absorb one form of energy and convert it into another form of energy. Allows user to create any energy, and thus the one that might be able to kill you easily.

Dimensional transportation / Teleportation
The ability to create wormholes, portation "discs" or other spatial portals for transport between two non-adjacent locations. Again, acceptable in some cases, but I would advise to stay away from it.

Omnipresence
The ability to be present anywhere and everywhere always.

Time travel
The ability to travel back or forth through time.

Sublimation
The ability to transform into a gaseous, mist, or fog-like form.

Power Absorption Shapeshifting
The ability to transform into another person with a specific ability and obtain the transformation's abilities while retaining your own.

Sound manipulation
The ability to manipulate sound. Can be acceptable in some cases, so long as it is not inherently fatal or overpowered.

Other banned powers / abilities will be added as needed.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Reserved/Used Powers]
Here is a list of powers reserved/taken by other members of the RP. Please note that this list does not forbid you from using the powers, it just informs you.

• Transformation of limbs into malleable steel
• Psychokinesis/Telekinesis
• Animal Mimicry (Scorpion)
• Shapeshifting
• Psionic Channeling
• Elemental Manipulation
• Emotion Virus
• Hair Substance Manipulation

[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Where to begin]
Your character can belong to any of the three factions, or could even be an impartial citizen. Tension between the factions are rising and a war is undoubtedly about to occur. You have either discovered you are a mutant and are fighting for your life or you have aligned yourself with one faction and are fighting for your cause. Whatever the case, you are now a part of something much bigger than yourself.

When you commit yourself to a faction, do not be afraid to say that you have been a part of this faction for a period of time. This conflict did not arise overnight, it is very possible that you belonged to these groups before things started to get extremely hostile. There are positions open for senior and junior members, as well as new recruits. You also don't have to stay with one faction throughout the entire RP, so if you fancy yourself a side shifter, then by all means create one.

This RP will be different than most, as it will consist of teams within teams. You will often be assigned to a mission or put on guard duty with your fellow faction members, so you will have a large amount of time for character development. I encourage to use the maximum number of characters so that we can have a lot of members for each faction. We will not start the RP until we have a sufficient amount of characters for each faction.

Weapon(S): Baseball Bat
Personality: Aaron, is seemingly self righteous. He wishes for all beings to be equal and usually finds a reasoning behind each and every one of his actions.

Weapon(S): A can of aerosol, this coupled with her matches allows her to use her powers even more effectively by enhancing the flames heat as well as the area of effect.
Personality: Lisé can be seen as being quite a fiery person due to her affiliation with flames. Her physical deformity due to her mutant class of Gamma is that half her body is scorched. This leads her to not care too much for looks and often targets the "prettier" looking people to show them what being ugly feels like.

Terribly, safree is well-known for being sticky, a great God-memory(have the mind similar to computer) .
Weapon: Anything: Based on the new mission.
Personality: Safree is rather inconsiderate, and can rarely tell or determine when she has said something that may have been rude or uncalled for. With this, she also does not seem to care much for others feelings on the outside, though deep down it would appear she is generous as well as passionate for the things she cares for. When given the motivation for anything, she works harder than most of the boys/girls, and will not give up until she has what it is she is after.

Mutant Class: BETA[/spoiler][/spoiler][hr][spoiler="Post by Renegade for the new thread"]Oh my gosh...you guys are going to kill me. And rightly so, so I wish to start this off by apologizing. So I'm sorry, but I think I am going to have to let this RP go. My course load for this year is astronomically large than it was last year, leaving me to doubt that I could get this RP up and off the ground, let alone get it to run smoothly. I know that I have amazing co-hosts who could no doubt handle the job, so if they wish to continue this, then by all means I hope they do. Full rights to continue with this are given to each of them, I am just simply informing you guys that I cannot participate in this like I thought I would be able to. Perhaps when the year settles down I might be able to either join in or try to restart this, but as it stands I am simply too busy to be able to run this RP sufficiently. Again, I am so, so, so sorry and I hope that none of you are too mad at me. I hope you guys know that I appreciate every single bit of work you put into this and that I hope that Xel, Jake, or Kyng will decide to continue with this.[/spoiler]

Everyone from the old thread who wishes to play one of their original characters most re-post their application(s) here and note any changes that have been made, if any.

[Enrise]

Personal Information:
Character Name: Shi Zaihuo (使 - 灾祸 / Translates roughly to: Make Disaster or Bring Evil)
Sex: Male
Age: 24
[spoiler=Personality]
Usually yielding and concedes to force, Shi is a pacifist and doesn't adore violence, let alone killing. However the outcome of the mutants and non-mutants conflicts come out, he is willing to accept either fate, whether it's the extermination of the mutants, dominance over non-mutants, or a coexistence. He doesn't feel it's warranted to have contempt over either of the two parties, but feels that either party cannot be persuaded easily, and that he should stay out of matters that doesn't directly concern him. While Shi is accepting the outcome, and is a pacifist, he believes that there will come a time where he will have to draw blood and use violence again - whether to protect himself or his friends - and he dreads the day where that will come, even though he vowed a promise to never draw blood nor succumb to violence again.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Appearance]


Shi is a 6' 1" (185.4 cm), fairly muscular body. Although not noticeable, he wears ten Containment Collars around his body: two on the wrist, two on the upper arm, two on the ankles, two on the thighs, one on the torso, and one as a collar (though more lower, around the collarbone). These Collars are surgically attached to his body, linked to his flesh and bones, and has no current way to remove them.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Bio]
Although not born in China, Shi was originally born in the United States. However, his parents were natives to China, and when they lived in the U.S. for long enough, they were homesick and wanted to return to China, and have Shi follow some of the old traditions on China, and have a more proper and successful education than in the states, where he can be a successful in the economy. Although his parents did not like the idea of him joining the military, they did not dislike it either, and thought it would be an excellent fall back plan, should he not make it far in education. When he finished secondary school, he barely made the cut to the universities in Beijing. However, Shi felt obligated to devote his time towards the Shaolin Temple, not wanting to continue his education for his parents sake. They disapproved of the action of discontinuing his education, but adored the idea of going to the Shaolin for Enlightenment.

While at the Shaolin Temple at age 18, he began to feel sick with each passing month of entering. At first he thought it was just homesickness, but then he felt it was more serious than that. He started to take his training there more seriously, thinking it may help his condition. But he didn't realize that the X-Gene was started to become active throughout his body; it would take some time before he would become aware of his mutant powers. It was at age 20 when he started to unleash his powers during training. When striking against some metal [a hanging frying pan], he created some flares on impact, while nearly destroying it as well. He was stunned about what he had accomplished, if he could attain that level, but was more scared as well. There were several other instances of him developing his powers such as: Misogi underneath a nearby waterfall where he could still the water pool before him, wielding fire from touching the flames of candles, etc. After discovery of his powers, he caught wind of the war on mutants. For fear of his friends he made at the Temple, and for his family, he bid his farewells to the Shaolin Temple and headed home to warn his family.

Upon returning home to warn his family, Shi was interrupted by the local militia to a sweep of any mutants being housed. His parents were willing to aid the militia without knowledge of Shi's mutant powers. When the militia found no mutants hiding, they left the area and moved on to the next area. At was at this time that Shi told his parents about his mutant abilities. When he told them, they didn't believe him until he showed them his powers. When they learned of his powers, they were naturally over-protective of him, called his powers the Wu Xing based off his powers of traditional five elements. However, shortly after he showed his powers, he noticed someone in the windows, spying of them and it appears that the person told the local militia. Telling his parents to flee immediately, it was too late.

Gunshots were heard outside, destroying the side of the house. Shi used himself as a shield, blocking the bullets from reaching his parents. When entering the house, the soldiers used a smoke bomb to distract Shi from trying to protect his parents and to confront the soldiers. When fumbling around, he gave a deep breathe and blew the smoke away, knocking back the soldiers and his parents. He noticed that his parents were being held on custody, and that they would only be released when he submits to the soldiers. He wanted his parents to be safe, so he went willingly, and fell to his knees and hands into the air. The soldiers restrained him so he could not escape, nor did he want to if it meant the safety of his parents. However, withdrawing from the promise the leader made, he ordered the execution of Shi's parents for "bringing an abomination into the world."

With his parents gunned down, he succumbed into his rage, and broke free of his restraints. His body temperature grew with his rage, and flames started to emerge from his body. He rushed after the soldiers, burning them alive and slaughtering them. Most of the soldiers ran off after the leader died with his top grunts; any other people around the event fled in fear of their lives. Shi bent over his parents bodies, not touching them for he was still burning. It was no use anymore, his parents were dead and he needed to flee. It was starting to thunder outside, and Shi could see the lightning flashes. He ran out of the city while still on fire, slowly dieing down from the showers of rain that were starting. He lived outside of the city for about a month, waiting for things to die down. After the month, he went to a company that was a developer of Containment Collars. He made a ruse of saying he caught a mutant, and wanted these collars to be surgically attached to body - flesh and bone - so the mutant could not remove them. Unfortunately, the ruse failed when the developer needed the mutant to surgically attach these collars. Shi could only "persuade" to allow the developer to not mention anything about Shi.

When all was said and done, Shi sneaked onto a boat with his sword and fan, and headed for the U.S.; he took a train to New York, attempting to relive a new life without his mutant powers as he once did. He currently works as an employee for a Chinese restaurant in New York City.[/spoiler]

Combat Information:
Faction: None

Member Status: N/A

Mutant Class: Ωmega (Suppressed to Δelta)
[spoiler=Mutant Powers: Wu Xing]

• Fire - Could 'create' flames by raising his body temperature in certain places to create flames. Now he can only cause a little fireball with the help of a lighter.
• Water - Could 'create' water by using his body's water to create water projectiles, whips, etc. Now he can only cause little water bullets that maybe give small bruises.
• Earth - Could 'create' a near impenetrable substance on his body and by making the area denser. Now he can only cause a knife to go only half-way.
• Wood - Could 'create' small storms and strong winds with his breathe and surrounding air. Now he can only affect nearby items so slightly.
• Metal - Could 'manipulate' the metals he touched to create metal-based items (like swords). Now (get this), he can barely bend a spoon with his mind.

Should his Containment Collars ever come off, he could retain his powers at their initial level. Right now using his powers for an hour straight will fatigue him enough to be tired and useless for a day.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Weaponry/Equipment/Items]

• Lighter
• Water bottle
• Zhě shàn (Chinese folding-fan)
• Han Dynasty Dao

[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Fighting Style/Abilities]
Sticking to the more melee combat, Shi uses his Dao as his weapon of choice, sticking to more traditional fighting beliefs, not wanting to use guns. The sword rarely gets damaged, and if it does, it can be repaired by Shi's Wu Xing - Metal. He uses his other items for his other powers - save Earth - as a somewhat last resort, because dealing with fires is that last thing he wants. He also has some minor practice in Shaolin Kung Fu, and subsequently, the List of the 72 Shaolin Martial Art (not all, but a handful). However, he doesn't like to fight, and with probably try to avoid all confrontation. In short:

• Martial Arts (Shaolin) - Has increased:
  • Flexibility - Able to stretch his leg vertically to his chest while standing straight.
  • Strength - Can create a small crater (about 6" in diameter, 3-4" deep) in a 1' thick brick wall.
  • Speed - Able to consecutively make fast punches, kicks, etc. on a typical street thug without giving him a chance
• A few of the 72 Shaolin Martial Arts

[/spoiler]
Other Information

• When his parents first discovered about his mutant powers, they were naturally scared, but then attributed to Shi being some sort of Avatar - thus being proud parents - that has power in relation to the Wu Xing, and thus he calls it Wu Xing.
• He never really got far into discovering his powers soon after discovering them. Wu Xing actually has many materials associated with the Elements, so he could have more potential than I initially give him. He's initially weak in the RP because of the Containment "Collars" that is "molded" to him.

[spoiler=Alexander Anderson] 
Personal Information:
Character Name: "46" Alexander Anderson 
Sex: Male 
Age:  20
[spoiler=Personality]
Under normal conditions Alexander is calm quite individual, often following any orders given without question, and with an extremely high success rate.  Due to the nature of his mutation, Alexander has developed an odd case dissociative Identity disorder, that seems to be triggered by pain, or when he is under high level of emotional stress. During these lapses of stability Alexander becomes very violent, and borderline psychotic, using his powers to mindless destroy nearly anything within in sight.  It is believed that Alexander has somehow subconsciously restrained the majority of his abilities to his other personality, due to fear that his powers would consume him. [/spoiler]
[spoiler=Appearance]

Other than his bright green eyes, Alexander has no features that would give away his identity as a mutant. Standing at 6’0, Alexander’s thin build gives him a weak and sickly appearance. He looks extremely young for a man his age, often confused as a teenager due to his lack of distinguishable features or facial hair. His normal attire is a combination of faded gray jeans, and a black straightjacket, which is only permitted to be removed during combat against high priority targets. [/spoiler]
[spoiler=Bio]
 
Discovering his mutation at the young age of five, Alexander immediately became on outcast among his pears.  His case of dissociative Identity disorder also seemed to become more apparent around this time, leading to nick-names such as: “Psychopath”, and “Nutcase”. Constantly suffering beatings from children and adults alike, young Alexander began slowly losing his faith in humanity, thus leading him to become the man he is currently.
 
This continued up until high school, where Alexander was literally the entire school’s punching bag; receiving a new level of mental, and physical abuse then he had ever experience in high school. Strangely, there were no recorded incidences off him retaliating against the other student’s, until near the end of senior year. The police report stated that Alexander was found in the school Gymnasium, cackling manically, and completely surrounded by the mutilated corpses of the entire football team. When questioned about it, Alexander made strange statements such as: “The other guy did it!”, and “He said that they should all pay...”  After being asked who “The other guy” was, he responded “He says he’s me…”
 
After serving a single year in a maximum security mental facility, Alexander was mysteriously released for unknown reasons. He then seemed vanish off the face of the planet, reappearing only months later as the Foundation leader's body guard, and personal assassin. He has currently abounded the name Alexander, and is now living only as a tool to further the Foundation's goal, feared by all sides as "46,The Foundation's attack dog".

Combat Information:
Faction: The Foundation
Member Status:  Senior 
Mutant Class:  ALPHA
[spoiler=Mutant Powers]
Through his mutation, Alexander has acquired what would be considered "Psychokinesis" by most people.  He is able to manipulate objects with his mind, allowing him to use a plethora of abilities such as: Levitation, Telekinetic pushing or pulling, manipulating the inner workings of objects that his has knowledge of, and augmenting his physical strength and speed.  Interestingly enough, Alexander’s powers seem to be extremely limited without the use of his arms or hands, making his straight jacket, along with his dissociative Identity disorder an effective way to regulate his powers. [/spoiler]
[spoiler=Weaponry/Equipment/Items][/spoiler]
 
Bullet proof straitjacket: Alexander's straitjacket is made of an experimental element that is very light, but highly damage resistant.
 
Utility belt:  On missions, Alexander is almost always seen wearing a belt that contains: 2x military grade concussive grenades, 12x throwing knifes, 1x micro smoke grenade, and 1x long distance tracking beacons. 
 
.  
 
[spoiler=Fighting Style/Abilities]
Alexander has three main fighting styles. 
 
Default: With his arms restricted, Alexander is forced to use his legs along with his augmented speed, and strength to brutalize is targets. He is able to use his mutant power to a much lesser degree then when in his other forms, but is still able to preform small feats such, as throwing objects, levitation and releasing small telekinetic blasts. It should be noted that he has trouble focusing his power's while in this state, and relies heavily on CQC, and the items from his utility belt.    
 
Off his leash (Non-restricted): By far Alexander most efficient style of combat, he no longer fight's in close quarters. Instead using his mutant powers, along with the environment to eliminate his foes. He is very adapt at using his power's in this form, but can tire easily if he overextends himself. He now favors the use of telekinetic beams, and barriers to keep the target's under pressure.
 
"The other guy":  Upon regressing into his other personality, Alexander's fighting style takes a savage turn. He becomes blood thirsty, and sadistic, turning everything in the area into a weapon or a target. To mach the change in his personality, his powers also become more wild, and unfocused, even the most minor feats seem to cause excessive damage to everything around. After a prolonged shift into this state, Alexander is know to fall unconscious, and will require medical attention.   [/spoiler]
 
Other: -Very few know Alexander by his real name, only by "46" or "The Foundation's dog"
- Alexander's hobbies include: Starring at the wall of his room, and silently following the foundation's leader around.

[spoiler=Brennen "Living Weapon" Harris]

Personal Information:

Character Name: Brennen "Living Weapon" Harris

Sex: Male

Age: 23

[spoiler=Personality]

Brennen was born with an attitude that leaves the more vulnerable folk at least a few meters out of his path. As a mutant raised as a living weapon to serve the Foundation, Brennen found little to no enjoyment in his role, prompting his rebellious nature against the higher class. Despite being noticeably dangerous, he takes joy in nights on the town, attending restaurants and playing his own version of "fruit ninja" with whatever they have in the kitchen. His love for fruit and sweets contributes to his quirky personality when he feels sociable with the humans, but his physical drawback makes most people keep their distance, which triggers the real loner in Brennen and makes him want to be alone, as in ALONE alone... not even with his own kind.  

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Appearance]

Brennen could be described as your everyday goth/punk stereotype, just more subtle. He has mild tan skin, hazel eyes, and natural black hair which is dyed with a gradient going from dark purple (scalp) to bright lavender (bangs.) Along his arms, legs, and upper back, you can various see tattoos: Left arm: Claw scratches - Right arm: A single scratch with a baby dragon's wing peeking out and grabbing his flesh - Upper back: Angel wings - Left leg: a generic tusk/demon horn stick out of his thigh.

 

Brennen wears a leather vest jacket that is usually unbuttoned and not covering anything but his bare torso, which also has a tattoo: A baby dragon peeking out of his right breast and exhaling smoke and flame. He wears a pair of what used to be jeans, but are now considered shorts ripped at the end which goes down to about 2 inches above his knees. He rarely wears shoes, considering his legs are a part of his power.

 

As a Beta, however, he has a minor deformity that appears to be a big man-boob but is in fact his ribs. Some of the deformed rib bones pierced through his chest skin, and the skin healed over it, which makes it pointless to adjust. Another visible mutation of his takes place in his shoulder blades, which extend out beyond his skin. Out from the top of the extended shoulder blades shows a horn-shaped chunk of cartilage.

[/spoiler]

 

Combat Information:

Faction: The Foundation

Member Status: Junior

[spoiler=Mutant Powers]

Brennen possesses the power to turn his limbs into malleable steel that he can morph into any melee weapon or tool at will with respect of the amount of material contained in said limb.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Weaponry/Equipment/Items]

Besides being able to turn his limbs into any kind of melee weapon or tool, Brennen carries an insulated pack on his back with a solar-powered generator inside, which he turns on to give his weapons a shocking buff.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Fighting Style/Abilities]

Brennen is an all-around fighter and, when cornered, is above average in escaping a conflict. He prefers fighting with an axe, simply for the satisfaction of slicing flesh with the momentum of a large blade face, but his arsenal is respectively endless. Occasionally he would fight with spears, and even ranged weaponry (so long as he retrieves it afterwards, otherwise part of his limb is permanently missing). When it comes to escaping, his best feature is his swinging rope, which he can stretch out with a 2 centimeters thick rope, which can extend out to lengths as long as 5 meters (10 meters when using his leg.) While often using his preferred style, you never have the same fight twice with Brennen. He makes sure of it.

[Jake the Sage]

Of COURSE I'm still interested in playing the leader of The Foundation! I didn't spend the amount of time I have working on the applications just to let them go. Not to mention the plot archs I've already have had come to mind on my off-time.

 

So, without further to do, here is the applications for all four of the characters I'll be playing as.

 

[spoiler=Jake]

Personal Information:

Jacob “Jake” D. Valiant

Sex: Male

Age: 23

[spoiler=Personality]

Jake is generally lighthearted and care free going so far as to tease his opponents in a battle if he knows that he can defeat them, even against opponents who might be more powerful than he currently is. However, ever since he has found him and his adopted daughter in yet another war dealing with super humans and normal humans he has tightened down his humor in battle and instead act like he used too during his travels. This does not mean he will not cut loose when he knows that there is no reason to be serious.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Appearance]

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Bio]

Born to a small family in rural Georgia, most of Jake’s early life was nothing out of the normal. Growing up with many friends Jake only discovered his powers by accident when he was attempting to reach something higher than he could reach; taking a deep breath he continued to reach and managed to grab hold of his toy, discovering he had somehow managed to levitate himself up by some mysterious power. After many long nights searching the internet for an answer and receiving none Jake just resided in the fact that he had somehow managed to levitate without explanation.

 

For year afterwards Jake trained to learn his powers and made many mistakes in the process; he thankfully never was found out though his mother and father had to replace quite a few expensive items because of his mistakes. Learning in arguably the best way possible, through trial and error, Jake learned that he not only could fly by using his energy but if he focused said energy into the palm of his hands he could fire concentrated beams of pure energy of varying degrees of intensity. Fashioning his own suit Jake became a secret super hero and only revealed his identity upon his world’s invasion by an alien force.

 

Since the alien invasion, and his subsequent death defending the Earth, Jake has become a Master Key and transversed the Multiverse. Yet now trapped within the current world, take must discover a way to escape without being killed, unsure of what would happen as his powers have been severely dampened.

[spoiler=Fighting Style/Abilities]

Due to his long lived second life as a Master Key Jake has learned many different styles of fighting which he has combined into his own personalized style. While his powers allow him to attack from a distance and up close, by charging the energy into his fist, Jake is more than capable of using pure skill against opponents.

 

Some of his most used techniques are:

• Shundo (literally, Instant Movement)
  • A method of rapid movement where the user of this technique sends their energy into their legs to seemingly teleport. However the downside of this technique is that once it has begun the user travels on a straight path and can only stop if another shundo is used.
• Afterimage Technique
• If the shundo is done in rapid succession it will create after images
• Jake uses his pockets in replacement for scabbard and carries out punches faster than the eye can see. The downside is Jake can't use this technique in close combat.
• Iaiken
• Amaguriken (literally, Imperial Roasting Chestnuts in the Fire Fist)
  • This technique greatly increases the user's hand speed and can allow users to throw several hundred punches so swiftly that it looks like a single strike.
• Futae no Kiwami (literally, The Mastery of Two Layers)
• A technique that focuses on destroying an object in two hits. The first blow is absorbed by the objects initial resistance, and the second destroys the object, which has no more resistance to sustain itself. Despite being able to perform this technique perfectly at slower speeds, the faster Jake goes the more injury he sustains from it and the less the Mastery of Two Layers actually works.

[spoiler=Sword Techniques]

• Zanganken (literally, Stone-Cutting Sword)
  • User infuses energy into the sword to cut a boulder in half
• Zanganken Ni-no-Tachi (literally, Stone-Cutting Sword, Second Strike)
• Cuts an object behind a person without injuring the person
• The user draws a circle with the sword, and cuts multiple enemies at once
• This technique is used to blow an object far away.
• After the first strike with the quickened sword, the user wields the empty sheath along the same path as a blunt weapon. After the sword strike lands, the sheath strike delivers a pulverizing blow capable of crushing bone and shattering wood, but if the sword strike misses, the sheath strike acts as powerful insurance, preventing an opponent's attack and delivering a crushing blow when it's least expected.
• Hyakuretsu Ōkazan (literally, Hundred-Strike Cherry Blossom Slash)
• Jakuzankūsen (literally, Lesser Air-Cutting Flash)
• Sōryūsen (literally, Twin Dragon Flash)

[spoiler=Lora]

Personal Information:

Lorana “Lora” A. Valiant

Sex: Female

Age: 19

[spoiler=Personality]

Originally a tough and rude little child, having grown up under the parentage of Jake at least now Lora has the skills to back up her mouth. Though generally she doesn’t want to fight her temper can be used against her to easily provoke her into a fight. She is more of a tomboy than a normal teenage girl though she does take time to spend on natural “girly” activities. Now that she has found herself once again in a world that is at war she has resumed her old ways in order to help her dad and herself escape and get back home.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Appearance]

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Bio]

Born to a wealthy family in another world, when Lora was eight years old she fled for unknown reasons to live her life on the streets. Continuing to survive as a mere pickpocket Lora eventually came across Jake in a marketplace after she had stolen an apple. Convincing the guards who had been pursuing her that Jake was her father, to which they demanded he pay for what she took, Lora watched astounded as the man easily took down the three well arms guards. From there Lora was convinced that she should learn how to fight from Jake and began to follow him when he told her he did not take on students.

 

Eventually Lora’s constant pestering of him, along with the fact he couldn’t seem to lose her, wore him down and he officially accepted her as his first student. During their training together Lora learned a few techniques from Jake; once she graduated at the age of thirteen she officially became his step-daughter.

 

Traveling the Multiverse with her new step-father, Lora has seen many things and has continued to grow into a powerful warrior but a beautiful young woman. Yet her attitude has changed little.

[spoiler=Weaponry/Equipment/Items]

• Iron Staff
  • Capable of mystic arrows
• Saiyan Scouter
• IS Armor
• Shielding
  • Primary protection for IS and its pilot is provided through use of energy shield (invisible to naked eye) that could block both physical and optical weapons. The integrity of the energy shield is maintained unless the IS is depleted of power, but the shield tends to lose its strength when nearing a complete power depletion.
• Hyper Sensor
• When piloting an IS, the pilot's senses such as vision are greatly improved. Using the sensory data input from IS, the pilot gains 360 degree field of view, being able to 'see' directions that are not possible for human body without turning her head (Such as behind, directly above and below)

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Fighting Style/Abilities]

Unlike her step-father, Lora is more about getting up close and attacking her opponent with hard blows meant to incapacitate them quickly. Her powers are mainly used to strengthen her already monstrous strength so that she can easily topple opponents twice her size.

[spoiler=Professor Bill]

Personal Information:

William “Bill” DuFord

Sex: Male

Age: 35

[spoiler=Personality]

Bill’s personality can easily be stated as not only compassionate towards mutant kind, but charismatic. Due to his attitude towards the mutants he is generally well received even when his more “diabolical” plans are brought to light. Highly intelligent Bill knows not only how to think three steps ahead of his opponents but how to persuade those who would otherwise disagree with his ideals.

 

He is not cruel in the most part, though if someone goes against his ideals or own personal morals he will show no compassion for them. Every mutant he comes across he views as a friend and would gladly sacrifice himself in order to save. Humans to William are seen as inferior creatures that need to be “brought to perfect or exterminated.”

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Appearance]

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Bio]

Born as, of all things, a normal mundane human, William DuFord graduated from college at the age of thirteen and had already patented new technological breakthroughs in the human genome under his name to supplement further experiments he was working on. Being brought into the United States Military as a consultant during the beginning of the mutant “outbreak” to examine captured specimens William was fascinated by how their genomes varied so drastically from that of normal humans.

 

Working on the test subjects he was able to gain DNA samples from, unaware of the fates of the mutants afterwards, William poured every ounce of his waking and sleeping genius intellect into cracking the code of what exactly made a mutant gain his or her extraordinary power(s). After a single year of exhaustive work Professor Bill had managed to crack the mutant genome down to what changes in the DNA structure would give what abilities. It was during his research that Professor Bill’s view of mutants began to shift from a grand puzzle that challenged him to solve to the idea that mutants were, genetically, superior to humans; despite genetic advantages William did not yet believes mutants to be totally superior to normal humans.

 

Resigning from his position as Military advisor towards the mutant affair, handing over only a small portion of his discoveries, William left to advocate for mutant rights. It was during his time spent as an activist that his life was forever altered when, during an incident where a group of mutant protestors are shot, Professor Bill’s mind for once could not accept the knowledge that he had just witnessed an unprovoked massacre nor that he had cradled a young mutant orphan while she died. Professor Bill, in his state of mind, came to the conclusion that humans are the truly evil ones and completely disappeared from public knowledge.

 

Reemerging a year later as a mutant himself, he had gained notoriety for having led a small militia of mutants who were currently fighting to overthrow the corrupt human government that would seek out mutants and willingly slaughter them.

 

Unlike other mutant “terrorists” before him, Professor Bill is not out to eradicate humans from the world by simply killing every last one of them- he still sees the value in life, human or mutant. Instead he seeks to convert every human into a mutant so that everyone may be equals once again

Combat Information:

[spoiler=Mutant Powers]

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Weaponry/Equipment/Items]

Having based the mutant state on the island of Genesis, William has set up a massive underground laboratory that stretches seemingly forever underneath the seabed as well. In this massive laboratory the good Professor works to create his ultimate weapon against humanity as well as convert those humans who have been captured by him.

 

Of his weapons that he actually keeps on him he has the following:

1. Sigurn-78 Ulysses Anti-Personnel Special, Module-3
   Power source: Internal Plasma Canister
   RPM: (External) 12-15, (Integrated) 30-50
   1. Incompatible with all scopes
   2. If damaged highly toxic Plasma exposure possible (if not integrated)
   3. Canister can overheat in tropic climates
2. Two  Stun Tonfa
3. Hooks replace the ends to disarm opponent(s)
4. Integration past Generator Pack time limit may cause Maglev recoil, which can cause minor bone damage to the lower back and spine
5. Maglev Cannon Prototype Model Lambda
   Power source: Maglev Generator Pack (Time limit; 150 minutes, approx 15 shots at max power)

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Fighting Style/Abilities]

William generally doesn’t prefer to fight against an opponent if he can figure another way out of the situation. Yet when push comes to shove he is more comfortable fighting at a medium range in which he can attack his enemies with the integrated weaponry he has developed or retreat back to the safety of his ultimate shield.

[/spoiler]

• Other Information
  He views any means as necessary to reach his goals and is not above massacring humans to reach his goals.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Aya]

Personal Information:

Aya Koshechkin

Sex: Female

Age: 3, however she appears to be 17

[spoiler=Personality]

Despite only being truly three years old, due to how she was cloned Aya has all of the knowledge that Professor Bill wanted her to know; which of course has a very biased view towards humanity. Unquestioning towards her “father”, Aya is generally shy and docile. She has a habit of clinging to William whenever they are around another person and will even cry when he is out of sight for longer than five minutes.

 

To others who do not know of her past, which is almost everyone but for the highest of The Foundation’s command, Aya is nothing more than an overly attached teenage girl clinging to their leader.

 

Though she is shy and docile, Aya is also gentle and prefers to avoid violence; she has an affinity towards nature and love animals.

 

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Appearance]

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Bio]

The original Aya Koshechkin died during the mutant massacre.

 

However, using his superior knowledge Professor Bill took a DNA sample from the murdered orphan and later would use that sample to clone Aya. Being born as a clone Aya does not remember anything of her past life nor has she ever been told she is a clone.

 

As Professor Bill’s right-hand, she has equal access to everything that the Leader himself would. She treats William as a father figure and willingly goes along with his plans to make mutants the dominate species on the planet.

[spoiler=Fighting Style/Abilities]

Aya doesn’t fight, period. As her power is purely defensive she is instead Professor Bill’s “ultimate shield”, preventing absolutely any attack from entering the sphere of her mutant power. When under extreme duress Aya’s power can spiral out of control making anything within her sphere be expunged and unable to reenter until she calms down- this can result in objects being hurled at hurricane force speeds.

Quote:

"You think you're the only ones who matter. You think you can put off death. But that peace made you foolish and thoughtless. If you kill someone, someone else will kill you… this hatred binds us together. I want you to feel pain, to think about pain, to accept pain, to know pain."

[hr]

Personal Information:

Character Name: Liero Dondo X-Name: Pain

Sex: Male

Age: 17

[spoiler=Personality]

As a child, Dondo was a sensitive, kind boy, prone to crying, and was traumatized by the idea of killing others, even if it was to save his enemy. Scared and unsure of his place in the world, he desired to help those he cared about, but never knew how. He was consistently respectful and kind, who they claimed to be their "angel" in his home town He was usually seen protecting himself, without request or hesitation from anyone, he was always with love of learning how to defend off bullies but as at soft heart, he would have a hard time learning that he would be able to punch/hurt someone, but due to his friend he was forced into actions that hurt others.He hates violence with a passion and fears to hurt others, thus he isolated himself.

                                                                                                         ***

As he grew things happened so fast, Dondo became very cold at heart, callous, and dispassionate figure, and rather aloof, brooding, and indifferent, willing to harm both his comrades and enemies should they get in his way. He refereed to anyone he didn't find interesting as "trash", and treated them as expendable. Despite this, he was still not particularly violent, and will only fight when was provoked.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Appearance]

 

A slender, yet fairly muscular, male, average height with a melancholic appearance. He has fairly short, messy black hair, pale white skin, and green eyes. Part of his bangs falls between his eyes, and he has distinctively thick eyebrows. He has teal make-up lines which descend from the lower part of his eyes. His facial expression rarely changes, though he is almost always frowning. He wears: a white jacket, black belt, and a white pants. However, his jacket has longer coattails and the collar is higher.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Bio]

The details of Dondo's birth are not known exactly; all that is known for certain is that he was found as an infant roughly three years before the events of a War that ranged on for days but soon ended, as he was left long for death, soon he was taken in for adaption by an old couple with no children of their own to depend on.

 

The other villagers became afraid, however, since Dondo appeared to age from being an infant to apparently growing fast in his late teens in eight years. This was compounded when he discovered, one day, that he now was a freak. Dondo was now identified as a Gear/tool essentially, a living weapon of mass destruction. This was especially troubling as a hundred-year war against Mutants had just ended five years ago. Dondo's foster parents hid her in a grove in the woods, but he was soon discovered and subjected to abuse at the hands of his captors. He quickly escaped, and the government issued a 10,500,000 World-Dollar bounty for his death with some kind of body proof.

[hr]Character Name: Bartholomew Barry Stenberg
Monickers: Silver, White Suit, Iceberg
Age: 40
Gender: Male
Faction: Vanguards, Second-in-Command
 
[hr]
[spoiler=Personality]Barry is a mostly well-mannered man with the ability to talk quite smoothly when the situation demands it and retains a very impressive control over his facial expression. He gives off a silent, oppressive aura that, with his stature, make others feel very, very small and lose the courage to go against him. However, despite his quiet demeanor, Barry has a violent temper when invoked. It first goes through an even more oppressive and quiet phase like the calm before a storm where Barry completely stops talking and is dead still. This is your signal to try to make him happy before he utterly explodes, and he may even becoming physical when dealing with his subordinates, doing things such as grabbing them or picking them up and holding them high in the air with one arm or throwing, though he manages to not actually hit them.
 
Barry has an extreme hunger for absolute domination and power stemming from his wish that nothing ever goes wrong and his natural born love of proper organisation. He encourages military projects and demonstrations and frequently asks his brothers to fund research in the creation of better and more powerful weaponry. Though he begrudges Valon's leadership position, he stays quiet about it so that he can stay in the shadows manipulating everything to his favor, but one day he will be ready to take the reins and sit in the front.
&nbsp;
Barry is full of hate for mutants and people who are inherently different. It was, after all, a mutant who had caused the incident which put him, his sister and his unit in hell, ultimately killing them and leaving Barry as the only survivor. He still suffers from trauma from that day and fury rises from his deepest recesses when he sees a mutant.[/spoiler]
[hr]
[spoiler=Appearance]Barry has an overwhelming build excellent for intimidation, standing very tall at 6'3 with massive, square shoulders reaching almost twice the girth of ordinary men. His hair, dyed silver because it had already mostly gone grey, is slicked back with far more gel than required making it very shiny, though fortunately, it never gets in his way, thus he is not required to crop his hair as is customary for military members. He has very strong features, wide, prominent cheekbones, a wide mouth with thin lips curled downwards in a natural grimace and a square jaw, though his nose is quite thin and points downwards, only very mildly hawk-like. Barry's eyes are a startling ocean blue, they are very luminous and sparkle like the waves themselves, and because he dislikes this as it is counter-productive to his intimidation, he is always wearing simple black shades when on duty. He has a very light grizzly beard and sideburns connecting across his face, but no mustache.
 
Barry usually wears a white tuxedo that had to be specially tailored for his frame, singling him out of all the men in black, thus giving him the nickname White Suit (something he is called behind his back, he does not actively approve of this and when Barry does not actively approve of something, you don't do it, or you do it as discreetly as possible). There are silver rings on the index and ring fingers of his right hand and the middle and pinky fingers of his left.[/spoiler]
[hr]
[spoiler=Biography]Barry was born to a very patriotic and strict family of the Catholic faith who lived in the richer neighbourhoods of Washington DC because both his parents were politicians, his father, in fact, was a senator. They were a very prejudiced and rather racist family. Barry grew up with three elder brothers who would bully him to toughen him up and a very-much-doted upon little sister. Despite the fact that he took it from his father and brothers in being strong and manly, surpassing his brothers in achievements by starring on his school football team and becoming a State boxing champion, he was always considered somewhat sissy because of the way he liked to keep very clean and orderly. Although there was teasing and some mishaps, the family was and is always very close.
 
Two of his brothers went into politics whereas Barry, his eldest brother and his sister entered the military. Rather than simply climbing in the military's ranks, Barry and his sister went on to become special operation forces, aka commandos, and were put on the same unit because the way they were able to cooperate and work well together. They were highly successful on many secret missions, and would leak any information they could obtain to their brothers who would in turn, using their leverage from the confidential info, help push the two forwards in ranks, giving them command of their own commando units.
 
However, one mission on foreign land ended in disastrous failure. One of the new members of the commando squad turned out to be a mutant and his uncontrolled release of power injured his sister while giving away their position. The enemy caught them, and out of their depravity and to relieve their stress and they horrors they had seen, they put the unit into utter humiliation. The leader of the enemy unit happened to also be a mutant, a Gamma class that was used as a military weapon.
 
The experienced scarred him completely, and of his unit, only he managed to escape alive. Barry wished for power, more and more power, enough power that there was no way anything would not go his way again. He pleaded his brothers with the simple request of power , and though his brothers probably thought him slightly deranged, they sympathized with him. Barry climbed to quite a high position in the Special Operations though continued to sometimes go out into the field.
 
With the formation and organisation of the Vanguards of Humanity, Barry went forwards to take leadership, eager for the power it would bring. He became a representative from the US government, recommended on stances of his outstanding performance, his record of repeated success and strong leadership.[/spoiler]

Alright thanks for reposting that, now we are just waiting on others to reclaim their characters. (The Nexians now look dead without anyone else ^_^)

[encapturer]

On the phone right now, but I'll be reposting my apps soon when i get the chance.

[Tormented]

Alright sounds good to me, we should be looking at starting the RP within the month, maybe we could do with some more Nexians etc seeing as Renegade isn't going to be RPing them for some time, so if anyone wishes to create another character and make them Nexian they are free to do so.

[Kyng's Old Account]

Phantom Co-host popping in to shoot at two things.

1 - Jake, Bill's age is inappropriate for his position. Either it rises, or his position falls. That's final.
2 - There's an issue in the OP that is causing the rest of the thread to be bolded. Best fix that before IC-ing.

[Tormented]

Oh I know, no need to worry (I'm hoping next page it'll be fixed) 

 

Fixed for now.

Here we go...

Personal Information:
Character Name: Marina Etchlet
Sex: Female
Age: 29
[spoiler=Personality]
Marina is blunt and to the point, preferring to get to the heart of the matter when she speaks. Though it is not like she is completely tactless; she knows when to keep her mouth shut. Even to those she runs experiments on, she is always upfront with what she is doing. In her mind, it's the right of every sentient being.

Marina can get rather passionate about her work and hobbies if one lets her. Particularly when it comes to the 'X gene', of course. Her sometimes singleminded drive allows her to excel in most things she puts her mind to. When she gets the chance to relax, she can be kind of silly when hanging out with others, sometimes saying things that only make sense in her mind. The fact that she recently only has the time to work irks her a bit.

While she understands that lives will be lost in this conflict, she prefers not to kill indescrimitely. She views normal humans not with contempt, but with pity, as they were unable to reach the next step of evolution. Not that being a mutant is easy as well; she recognizes that the current mutations are so wild that there will most likely be cultural instabilities for the next few generations, no matter which side wins. She can be rather pushy with her ideas, while her human research subjects may complain about potentially turning into a mutant, she does not relent, believing that its for their own good, even if they die in the process. and it's very hard for one to change her mind, especially on her opinions about the mutant-human conflict.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Appearance]
[spoiler=A picture from before her mutant power manifested.]

[/spoiler]
Ever since her mutant power revealed, Marina's appearance did not change that much, save for her hair. Her once blonde hair is now an almost transparent shade of blue, and while she keeps it in a similar hairstyle, there are no hairstrands, and the style is held together by virtue of it being a 'solid liquid'. Standing at about 5'5" tall, Marina can often be found wearing suits and the like, more fitting for a businesswoman than a scientist. She rarely makes a frivolous motion and generally appears to be all-business, no-nonsense kind of woman, even with her obviously fake hair.

Once she slips into a labcoat, she becomes more frantic, as if she was in some sort of race. Her voice is still composed, though those who work with her know when she's freaking out, as her hair begins to lose its shape. Recently, Marina had taken to working in the lab bald, as to not get her hair liquid mixed in the samples there. Still, it's quite a shock for one used to Marina's public appearance to see her in the lab.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Bio]
After getting her graduate degree, Marina dove headlong into genetic research, and counted herself among those who first discovered that the X-Gene was causing mutations, granting her some fame within the scientific community. Just a year after, she found herself in the public eye once again, as she discovered that she was a mutant. During a presentation to university school students, her hair dissolved into a goopy mess. Now classified as a mutant, the general public cast a distrustful eye upon everything she did and had done, culminating with her leaving the lab as to not get her fellow researchers and friends caught up in her infamy.

Soon after, mutant relations soured to the point where rumors of genocide was going around, and Marina found herself contacted by a member of The Genesis Foundation, wanting to use her mind since the humans saw no worth in it. As she was still very much into science, she accepted their offer, and soon began to view her mutant curse as a blessing. A blessing that all of humanity ought to share. Her viewpoint doesn't make her popular among those who view humans as scum, but they tolerate her due to her insight and knowledge.
[/spoiler]

Combat Information:
Faction: The Foundation

Member Status: Senior

Mutant Class: She identifies as a Delta or a Beta depending on mood, but feels (Scientist name)'s classification system could use some work.
[spoiler=Mutant Power]
Marina's hair is some sort liquid substance, capable of changing some of its qualities at Marina's whim, as long as she's touching it. Under normal circumstances, it holds together well enough for it to not cause any trouble for her, besides looking completely unnatural. Otherwise, Marina finds herself often turning in into either slick ice-like form, or a sticky glue-like form. If left on its own not connected to her as 'hair', the material eventually changes itself to water - losing all connections to Marina's mutant abilities in the process unless properly contained. It usually takes more than a few hours for this to happen. To Marina's relief, the material is non-toxic to humans and mutants. The material itself grows as fast as hair would, but drinking large amounts of liquid can accelerate the growth process.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Weaponry/Equipment/Items]
When traveling in dangerous places, Marina often carries a few vials of hair-liquid to use in emergencies. She keeps a large amount of hair liquid in her lab below freezing temperature store it without it becoming useless to her. If need be, she has a large, modified water gun toy complete with a backpack for storing the liquid. It was modified to allow her hair to seal the tank on the back, allowing her to control the qualities of the liquid she fires.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Fighting Style/Abilities]
Fighting? If caught in a situation where one was trying to fight her, Marina's first instinct would be to run far away. Thanks to her power, it becomes easy to escape. If she actually needs to fight, she prefers to fight with others and support with her liquid hair abilities and her water gun. If it does become one-on-one, she tends to flee as expected, but if cornered, she has been known to fend off attackers by using her hair to create weapons for her use.
[/spoiler]
Breakthroughs
Marina has discovered quite a bit about the X-Gene while at the Foundation. Some useful. Some... not so much. Here's a list of projects and discoveries.
[spoiler=Projects]
Name: Human Muatation Project

Status: Stalled. Experiments show promise, but live tests disprove potential hypothesis in creating mutants from a standard human being.

Name: X-Gene Awakening Project

Status: Minor Progress. Some successes in awakening dormant mutants to their abilities, but there have been unwanted side effects.

Name: Power Enhancement Project

Status: Usable. A solution can be made to temporarily increase one's mutant abilities, but the side effects are varied, and currently each solution must be custom made for each mutant who wants them which takes about a month to discover.

Name: Gene Masking Project

Status: Stalled. Currently only able to fool certain outdated methods of mutant testing with minor side effects. There are some ideas about using a different method to hide the X-Gene from detectors, but theoretically, the side effects are huge.

[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Discoveries]
Name: False Mutation

Description: An solution, that when injected into the human body, causes mutant testing to give false positives. Does not make the target a true mutant, and wears off in about a month

Name: Mutant DNA testing

Description: DNA testing, with mutations added in. Compared to normal testing, this gives results quicker and with an almost perfect accuracy.

Name: Specialized Containment Collars

Description: Containment Collars that only work on a specific mutant. After collecting the DNA, such a collar can be made, relatively cheaply compared to universal containment collars.

[/spoiler]

I'll have the appearance up later today, but I just wanted to get this up so it can be critiqued and things can be removed or tweaked as per the GMs needs; the Discoveries in particular.

Kinda wanted to make a character who had some fame surrounding her, and doesn't exactly 'fight' in the normal sense of the word. I just hope that Marina can get in with only a few modifications, haha.

Aldir, the PC, and his sister, Francine, the NPC.

Personal Information:
Character Name: Aldir Emerson
Sex: Male
Age: 24
[spoiler=Personality]
Aldir is a laid back individual, living his days out moment to moment. He comes off as arrogant as he likes to boast about his achievements, though he's just as quick to brag about one of his friends as well. He's not the type to seek out danger, but he doesn't back down from it, either. While others may call him reckless, to Aldir, it's just him getting stuff done.

As one might expect, Aldir thrives on attention. He is usually smiling for one reason or another and generally enjoys life. He does lose control of himself occasionally, usually when dealing with people he doesn't like, though its been getting rarer and rarer.

He finds little use in lies and half-truths in most situations, and often beats on himself whenever he finds himself resorting to using one. This makes him one to be trusted when they need an honest opinion; it helps that its fairly obvious when he's trying to be evasive. But he lets out everything on his mind, regardless if one likes his opinions or not.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Appearance]
Aldir looks to be a black-haired Hispanic young man, often seen wearing a hat of some kind to hide the bald spots on his head. He's... tall enough, at almost 5'9", and has black eyes which don't seem to be able to focus on one thing for an extended period of time.

One's eyes would immediately be drawn to Aldir's 'arm cannon', the metal prosthetic left arm he has which is more of a gun than an actual hand. There is still an elbow, but he seems intimidating since he is 'always armed'. Aldir's clothes accentuate this, often wearing a jacket, sleeveless shirt, and jeans. Even when he has to dress up, his dress clothes lack a left sleeve, just so he can show off his arm.

Besides that, he is kind of stocky, though it does look like he works out. Overall, Aldir basically seems 'confident' in the way he moves and his posture, though whether he's confident in himself or in his arm is up to debate.
[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Bio]
After dropping out of college, Aldir found himself floating from job to job, unsure of his direction in life. He was originally an orphan, but was fortunate enough to find a loving foster mother and father. The Mrs. Emerson was infertile, so the pair had decided to adopt three children at once, giving Aldir a foster brother and sister, named Charles and Francine. He held his family in high regard, so felt as if he was failing them by being unable to finish college. Still, he continued on, though he could feel his will drain day by day.

After a few months his parents called and asked about him visiting home with his siblings, which Aldir decided to do after much deliberation. Resolved to actually turn his life around, he came home... to find that while Aldir was off feeling sorry for himself, his brother Charles had discovered that he was a mutant. Aldir was cool with it, after all they were family, but something happened. His brother... literally exploded.

Aldir doesn't remember the details. Something about the mutant power causing an unexpected violent reaction to the atmosphere. What he did know was that his parents died in the explosion, and Aldir himself should have been dead. If his sister Francine wasn't running late and was able to save Aldir, the tragedy would have claimed the entire family's lives.

That's not to say that Aldir got off scot-free. He was now missing most of his left arm and had multiple internal injuries. Consciousness came and went. Aldir, for his part, was able to make his decision; when he was able to speak with Francine, he had one request:

"You know that human weapon project you've got? Get me in on that."

His sister honored Aldir' wishes, and although his injuries complicated some things, he was able to be successfully rebuilt. With his path clear, Aldir joined the Vanguard, because those mutants are a danger to everyone... including themselves.

Combat Information:
Faction: The Vanguard

[spoiler=Weaponry/Equipment/Items]
W.C.F. - Weaponized Cybernetic Frame

The Weaponized Cybernetic Frame is a part of the Soldier Recovery Project, which aims to use cybernetics to allow injured and crippled soldiers back into the field. It has a success rate of about 15%, so people can only enter the program voluntarily. Under normal circumstances, it would just be cybernetics, but Francine was forced to use experimental parts due to politics within the unit. Fortunately for Aldir, there were no complications.

Aldir's entire left arm has been replaced with something akin to an 'arm cannon', complete with adjustable barrel. The barrel is telescopic, and can widen and shrink as needed. As such, it can take standard ammunition, or specialized 'slugs' which turn his arm into a grenade launcher of sorts. The whole assembly is tied directly into his body's natural systems due to the injuries he sustained. This does have some perks, as while the arm is battery-powered, he can power it using his body's own energy in emergencies. His left foot is normal cybernetic foot, with added parts which help him stay grounded when he uses is arm cannon.

Currently the only slug types he can use are explosive and flammable slugs, though more will be developed as more WCFs are installed, as Aldir's was a success.

The W.C.F. needs recalibration from time to time, generally every other day. While it is best for Aldir to see a certified bio-technician to do the recalibration, Aldir has learned enough to recalibrate the cybernetics himself in a pinch.

[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Fighting Style/Abilities]
In close quarters, Aldir tends to rush in, and is not afraid to use his metallic arm and foot to his advantage. He does sometimes get a little trigger happy, though... really, it's not like he can be disarmed like others in his current state.

He's a decent shot with his cannon at mid range, and he really can't snipe with his arm cannon, despite it having that functionality. He really enjoys the slug launcher, though, and works pretty well with it.

The orphanage took to calling him "Sage", as his eyes seemed to contain all of time and space, but none knew of his true name. The name ειρηνοποιός was suggested to him by Alec."]ειρηνοποιός[/acronym] (Lit. [i]Peacemaker[/i]) 

Human Guise Name: Halcyon Melodias 

[b]Sex:[/b] [acronym="At least SEEMS to be"]Male[/acronym]

[b]Age:[/b] [acronym="His birth records are long lost, and he does not reveal information about himself."]Unknown[/acronym][hr][b]Personality/Appearance/Biography[/b][hr][spoiler="Personality"]His personality slightly differs depending on how old his current look is, and depending on his current role or purpose at the moment. However, in all forms, his mind is mostly unchanged, and just his physical appearance, and thus, his hate for fighting or racism shows in all ages of his appearances, in suiting ways pertaining to the age. Usually as a small child, he acts very innocent and giggles at mundane things, although this is all a cover to hide his true nature. When people fight, his dislike for fighting shows in a pouting face that some laugh at, or call cute. If he appears more like a teenager, his abhorrence for racism or other anger between the "powered humans" and humans shows itself as more of a slight disgust, and he would try to change a person's view of things. He can sometimes have spouts of anger though if one continues to keep hate in their heart. As an adult, he tries to reason, and can be very detailed and such in explaining why one should try to accept the "powered humans" into society, and co-exist with them. Sometimes, he declares himself as some professor who studies these things in order to try to bring more credibility. He usually keeps his calm in this shape though. As a grandfatherly sort of appearance, he follows what people would believe is normal of such. Able to say very wise knowledge that only those who had lived for a long time would know, or being very gentle and not losing his calm, and trying to persuade people who hate the "powered humans" to change their view via ways such as explaining facts, proving some misinformation as such, or other ways, sometimes even pronouncing himself as a "powered human" if he knows someone for a while, and tries to show them that his kind aren't all bad, because if one managed to get along with him so well, just a simple statement shouldn't change things.

 

He is very sad, and he knows himself that he will continue to be so to the point it might even be the death of him, until perhaps the two kinds can co-exist. He knows this is farfetched with the current hate and the war going between the Vanguard and the Foundation, but desperately hopes it will happen. If one manages to reach behind his covers of his mind and converse with his true nature, they would see that ειρηνοποιός is very kind and empathetic, willing to help any person in need for non-hatred related issues. With a very melodic voice, although harrowed by grief and time, it can draw many people's attention if he starts talking, and his ability "Tranquility " is so that people cannot keep fighting and expressing hate as he tries to change their narrow point of view and close the gap between the two races.[/spoiler][spoiler="Appearance"]He can take different appearances, but he looks entirely human, and unless one managed to prove it otherwise via tests or similar, one wouldn't be able to tell just from looking unless they knew him. He likes taking the form of an [url="http://date-masters.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/wise-old-man.jpg"]old man[/url] with long white flowing hair combining with his other white facial hair dressed in an olive green robe. This gives him an appearance that some might imagine of a wise old man. He does not have any hunches or problems walking as normal old human men might though. Standing at around average height, if not a little taller, his appearance can be slightly surprising to some. Also, his skin does not bear as many wrinkles as a normal human old man might. His eyes are piercing and seem endlessly deep. ειρηνοποιός can be seen usually advising his fellow Nexians and walking around observing different things such as the natural wildlife outside or studies. He can also be seen doing things that one might view as slightly odd, such as diving off a high ledge, as his intangibility mostly protects him, or walking through walls. Also, he greatly enjoys reading and can be seen with thick tomes on the history of the world, making notes and talking to himself or humming as he turns the pages. He usually has a sort of sad smile, or an undecipherable expression on his face. However, he does value his friends, and he can be seen with them a good deal of the time. Otherwise, he is usually reading or observing various phenomena or the like.[/spoiler][spoiler="Biography"]His biography is mostly lost among the rifts of times, and the only ones to know of it are himself, and partially Alec. ειρηνοποιός was still very [acronym="Only a few decades or so."]young[/acronym] when a hunt had started for him, turning his world upside down.  He was not noticed yet as a "powered human" by the society at the time, and there was not as much hate or bias against his kind at the time either. He had taken on the age of a teenager to get along with others and learn what they viewed and thought about his kind, but without revealing that he himself was a "powered human". He had gotten along well with a few kids around his "age" appearance. However, they all agreed that his kind were freaks of nature, abominations, and were despicable, although one seemed sort of reluctant to do so. "Halcyon", as his - fake - human name was profoundly upset and disappointed, and in a fit, revealed the fact that he was in fact, a "powered human", becoming intangible and reaching through one of the teenagers he thought had been his friends. During the time he had taken on the guise, he rather liked being able to just be normal, and be accepted, but this was only because of the fact they didn't know he was a "powered human". He did not take any violent action, as it was against his very nature, but he had screamed at them, not wanting to understand their sudden change of feeling towards him. They had gotten along so well with him, just a simple phrase shouldn't have changed something so much. All of his friends, except one were utterly disgusted with him now. The oldest teenager called for the police, although the aforementioned one teenager had objected to it, not hating him for who he was. The one person ειρηνοποιός could truly call a friend had stood up for him, willing to be hated, if it meant helping him. The officers had arrived at that very moment, and charged towards ειρηνοποιός to capture him and put him in an experimentation cell. With Containment Collars at the ready, ειρηνοποιός couldn't stay any longer, and had to disappear, fleeing faster than they could follow, running through walls and buildings, and eventually, the police gave up the chase, instead moving to put up search papers with a composite sketch of him on them around town.

 

ειρηνοποιός had safely escaped the officers, but his friendly feelings had been smashed to nothing more than sorrow now. Wanting to not see anyone, he had sunk to underneath the ground, only his head from his eyes and above visible, semi-ghostly now, from all the stress that had been placed upon him, starting to fade. He couldn't care if he altogether died and disappeared, his sorrow drowning everything else. Eventually, he decided to come back up to the surface, and had materialized once more. Walking through a back alley, not wanting to see anyone, he was unwary. A band of muggers had surprised him, one holding his arms in a full nelson, another pointing a gun at his head. Suddenly phasing through the person who had grabbed him, he made a dash out the alley, having became tangible again after that quick moment, not easily able to control his powers when this young. The bandits chased him, and in a action-of-the-moment, he had ran through the street, phasing through everyone, before reaching the other side again, and fleeing once more. When he was finally sure that he was alone, truly alone, he sat down, his tiredness kicking in, and wept. A man maybe appearing around 40 dressed in a black trench coat strides up to him. Showing his empty hands to signify that he meant no harm, ειρηνοποιός turned to look at him, curiously, dried tears cutting grooves across the dirt on his face. The man had short black hair, as well as grizzly stubble for a mustache and close-shaved beard. The man smiled kindly, the genuine care showing in his eyes. Reaching out to lift him up, the man said that he knew ειρηνοποιός was a Mutant, and gently asked him if he could materialize, so he could help him. Becoming tangible, ειρηνοποιός took his hand, and Alec - the name of the man - revealed that he himself was a Mutant as well. Surprised, as the man seemed perfectly like a normal human, and to show it, Alec had quickly changed forms into a different appearance, before reverting back. The man had continued to speak, saying that he was helping lost Mutants such as him, and that he was the first he had found, when he realized he had forgotten to ask his name. Asking ειρηνοποιός his name, he realized he never had one. Opening up like a flower does to the rain, ειρηνοποιός said his orphanage had called him Sage, but he called himself Halcyon Melodias, as a manner of sorts to subtly show his dislike for racial hate and his wish of equality. Ruffling his hair, Alec suggested a name to him - ειρηνοποιός - a word for "Peacemaker" in another language. Taking on this mantle, and saying the name to himself quietly, ειρηνοποιός realized he felt at ease with this man, and realized he found what he believed to be his "true name" of sorts. Alec asked gently whether he would like to join the Nexians, and if he didn't, it would be fine with him. Curious now, ειρηνοποιός asked Alec what the Nexians were. Explaining that the Nexians were a group devoted to searching for peace and co-existence, and how ειρηνοποιός might like and relate to that, the younger Mutant had proceeded to join them, but on one condition, which was met and granted with a smile - to have Alec call their kind "powered humans".[/spoiler][hr]

As it suggests, except when using Tranquility, this makes him intangible. He can toggle this on and off, but usually leaves it on, as it is no drain to him. However, if he is taking on a guise, he turns this off as not to give away the fact that he is a "powered human". None can touch him, and the only way to manage to possibly capture him or kill him is to be able to chain on a Containment Collar around him without relying on grabbing onto him or holding him for support. If a C.C. is successfully chained around him, he will become tangible once more. However, capture is pretty difficult as he can phase through almost any kind of wall and the like, as well as other beings. This can keep him alive for much longer than the average life span, as when he is intangible, time will not have affect his body negatively, letting him stay appearing the same as he was the second before he turned this on. However, as time still flows around the world, he can make his body look older or younger, although this is just appearance, and no other effects come with the older or younger appearance. For example, if he was injured when he was looking old, making himself look younger will not reverse his wound. He can look like a young child, a teenager, an adult in his prime, or take on a grand-fatherly appearance. His clothes only change size to match as he changes size. However, if he is upset or otherwise mentally disturbed, it can become harder or near impossible to change during that period, leaving him with sort of the personality traits of whatever age he was at the moment.

 

[b][u]Tranquility[/u][/b]

This is an ability that can be toggled on and off. Taking around a minute to prepare, he focuses his limitless calm into a field of sorts, a mile wide in diameter at the maximum. When the field is created, his "Untouchable Peacemaker" ability is automatically disabled, and cannot be turned on again as long as the field remains. Within this field, it is essentially a Containment Field, and as such, all supernatural abilities are negated - for all sides (excluding himself). If one attempts to stand outside the field and then fire in or otherwise target something inside the field, the moment the projectile or whatnot crosses the boundary, it will dissipate. Thus, dying from something created supernaturally will be impossible while inside the zone. This is the same for any other means of harm. If one tries to bring a gun or the like into the field, it will become "ghostly" for as long as the field remains, and will be unusable. Projectiles fired in will disappear entirely. Physical brawling can still occur via unarmed fighting, but the strength of any and all beings are reduced to a slightly weak human adult. Also, while inside the zone, a person cannot be killed in general by any non-natural means, and supernaturally inducing a earthquake or flood would be stopped as well. The field is a spherical one, radiating out from the epicenter, which is wherever he happens to be located at the moment. Within the field, it will induce some feelings of calm, soothing some angers and the like. Beings cannot be dragged out of the field to be killed or otherwise severely harmed without their explicit consent while in their normal unaltered state of mind. Also, one cannot attempt to exit the zone temporarily to fire upon another enemy outside the field, then re-enter for a "safe-zone protection". Once they decide to leave of their own consent, they will be prohibited from entering again until the next time this spell occurs again and they enter. Any beings can come in, any beings can exit. This is a non-offensive power, and thus, has some advantages of a stronger defense against someone who might wish to try to dismantle the barrier or similar.[/spoiler][hr][hr][b]Inventory[/b][hr][spoiler="Weaponry"]None.
