Character Application


Antihero
Name: Robert Richardson

Superhero Name: Dhampir

Age: 39

Gender: Male

Race/Species: Dhampir

Appearance: Robert Richardson

Personality: Very much a nice, if twisted in a sense of justice guy. He only held grudges on vampires. Normal criminals? Well, it's developing as well but still kind of a slow development anyway. Gruff, rough, too.

Biography:

Born in Brooklyn, Robert never met his father which was said to died overseas during tours in Iraq, as what his mother always said. Not that he found anything strange with that, as there was always money sent every month from an anonymous benefactor. And not just that, but sometimes, every three months, her mother met a mysterious man who seemed to never grew old and always had a date with him for a full week, trusting him under the care of that man's friends, who taught Robert about vampire, weirdly.

Robert experienced changes when he fought off three bullies on senior high school because well...he's handsome and one of the bully's girlfriend decided to had an affair with him, with increased strength. While the other two ran, the last one was left unconscious and he suddenly felt a thirst for blood, and sucked the blood of the boy until he died. Horrified, he ran away to his home.

He met the man, who revealed himself as his father and he revealed that he is a vampire and he is a dhampir, mix of human and vampire. Before long, he was taught the vampirism and how to control his powers, and thirst. His vampire father has no interest on turning his son into a full-fledged vampire, since he saw himself before turned into vampire in him. His mother was said to fled the city with his father shortly after the period of training, and Robert was left with a trust fund. Instead of continuing to college, he decided to redeemed himself and found a way to be good in church, learned how to be a priest in the process.

Beside priest training, he entered the world of underground fighting, using his powers and learned few martial arts moves, gained the title "Giant" for his strength. At the same time, he utilized the trust fund to buy some metalworks and silvers. He enlisted the aid of a blacksmith to made him a silver sword and enlisted the aid of a weaponmaker via his underworld connections to build the gun he needed. During the invasion by alien force, he found himself pitted against a vampire in the middle of the invasion and he dispatched him quite easily. Why a vampire able to found him is unknown to him, but he felt a dark force beneath him...

Finding himself with a new power, newfound mission, and a sense of justice to find the roots of the problem, he decided to donned himself a superhero career with equipment from church and the weapons he has...



Powers/Abilities:
  • Superhuman Strength: Slightly stronger than normal humans<script id="gpt-impl-0.984413166763261" src="https://partner.googleadservices.com/gpt/pubads_impl_89.js"></script> but still slightly weaker than normal vampire, Robert possessed a superhuman strength.
  • Superhuman Agility (Reflexes, Dexterity, Speed): Same as above, except his speed is comparable to that of a normal vampire, while higher than normal humans at the same time.
  • Swordmanship Quite a skilled swordsman, trained with local medieval club but not the best of it.
  • Marksmanship: Good marksmanship, improved in the middle of that alien invasion.
  • Hand-to-hand combat As skilled as an amateur MMA fighter.


Weaknesses
  • Vampire Weaknesses Despite only possessing half of the vampire weaknesses, he still has the weaknesses, only slightly though. Sunlight won't harm him but smokes will appears as if he was burned by fire but still managed to walk, same with UV light. Holy water and cross won't harm him much since he still part-human.
  • Blood Thirst: Inability to control thirst of blood for a period.
  • Twisted Sense of Justice As mentioned in the personality, as far as he concerns, vampire is his only enemy, and the others (aliens, superhumans, normal criminals) beneath his concerns...for now


Equipment:
-Sword made of melted silver
-Handgun, modified with ultraviolet lights and normal bullets, sadly (silver bullet is expensive)
-Cross
-Holy water
-Smartphone

Likes: Coffee, 90's songs.
Dislikes: Vampires.
Theme Song:Thousand Eyes




Additional information: He has an armed and modified camper as his mobile base.

Character Application



Name: Cora

Superhero Name: Recharge

Age: Technically 8, but also 24. Idk... It's complicated...

Gender:Female

Race/Species: Cyborg/human

Appearance: Cora

Personality:

Biography:
Cora was the result was a secret government project meant to test the limits of humanity. The program got even more extreme as it continued, and eventually became weaponized, seeking to create the ultimate soldier. Failure after failure came until one was finally successful and she became known as "Cybernetic Organic Robotic Annihilator", or CORA. For three years she was trained brutally, and she proved to have the makings of a harden killer. However that year the secret came to light program was shut down, its higher ups arrested and its scientists reassigned. The young Cora ran way before the authorities could find her. She had gained a terrible fear of uniforms and thought they would experiment on her more. She soon was homeless and lived on the street but being a cyborg she was resilient and was able to survive.

However she was constantly being hunted by enemies who have learned her true identity and want to experiment on her. Because of this she was always on the run and is quite lonely. She trained herself and grew quite powerful and self reliant. She was bitter and spiteful, and determined to make someone love, and respect, by force if necessary.

Then she met Katie.

Cora had robbed a beauty parlor and was forcing the employees to pamper her. She was then confronted by a young superhero named Voltra. Voltra expected a fight, wile Cora merely wanted to make friends. The two bonded and when the police arrive Voltra didn't have the heart to see Cora go to jail and so took her away and transported Cora to her apartment via her electric powers. Voltra revealed herself to be Katie Prince, local college student and pizza delivery student. She offered Cora a place to stay and Cora finally felt for the first time that they had a home. They then ran into Katie's neighbor, a sweet environmental lawyer by the name of Valancy Sterling. Valancy had incredible powers to control the Earth its self, but they were hidden from Katie, as Katie's were to her.

The three new friends went off to a spontaneous lunch together. All was going well, until... well until it wasn't. Cora was suddenly attacked by a mysterious man, who's powers resembled her's greatly. It turns out he was created by the government to kill her. Cora was sorely outmatched, and so her new friends revealed their powers to each other and joined the fight. Katie fought the cyborg, code name "Hunter" one on one, while Valancy stopped an entire building from collapsing all by herself. Cora was still outmatched however, until Katie fused her energy with the Cyborg, giving the latter incredible power. With their powers combined, Cora overwhelmed and defeated the other Cyborg, saving Pandora City and herself in the process.

After the battle, the three young women decided to stay together, and figure out their uncertain futures as one. The opportunity for such a future came when the world changed, the days when the box was opened. Super villains began to crawl out of the woodwork, and the Justice Queens were born. The three girls decided to take justice into their own hands, and dedicated themselves to fighting crime. Another named Jamie joined them as the team grew stronger and better suited to deal with the challenges of the world.

Their greatest challenge came in the form of the Xantheians, the alien race responsible for the box. They had enslaved humans, using them to create a foreign army to conquer other planets. The Justice Queens freed these humans and drove back the Xantheians, bringing peace to the world, at least for a moment.

Cora soon developed a strong romantic relationship with Katie, who is now her fiance and the team is thriving as new heroes rise up every day. They even gained a fifth member. A woman named Elena who they rescued from the aliens. Still, Cora can't help but feel a storm on the horizon. As if they were sitting in the calm before the storm.

Powers/Abilities:
  • Super Strength- Self explanatory, but because of Cora's nature and body make up she has incredible strength, strong enough to smash buildings with punches.
  • Kinetic Energy Blasts- Cora is able to channel her energy into blasts from her hands that range in size and magnitude.
  • Energy Core- Cora has an energy core that works off an unknown alien source that produces incredible amounts of self sustaining energy and is even able to absorb kinetic energy from around her.


Weaknesses
  • Overloading Cora's system can be temporarily overloaded with energy, making it impossible for her to use her core for a short time.
  • Can die Cora can be killed with enough force, her body is still human in part, so she can be maimed and can merely regenerate.
  • Hacking Cora's mind is essentially a super computer, and therefore it can be hacked by someone who knows what they're doing.


Equipment: N/A

Likes: Katie, Chocolate, her team, training, classical music
Dislikes: Government, labs, uniforms, bullies
Theme Song: n/a


Additional information: Hi Star

Not necessarily, but your powers should have limitations and there should be weaknesses for your race.

Character Application


Name: William Brookes

Superhero Name: N/A

Age: 28

Gender: Male

Race/Species: Human

Appearance: William

Personality:
William tries to be the smartest person in the room, always. Be it with sarcasm or irony, he will not lose his posture of highly skilled mage. He isn't uncomfortable at any crowd, and easily walks and deals with the underground magical world. Summarizing, he will joke as a resort of showing trust in his abilities and studies, and will employ a "grey" set of morals if needed, without any shame in doing so, but he's also a good person.

Biography:

The story of the mage known as William Brookes would start in a very religious family in New York. The oldest son, being a brother to three sisters and two brother, he would become the family's black sheep at an early age.

His high aptitude for magic would come with his family's pursuit. After years of being "exorcised" in all the ways possible, he decided to make a little joke. At the age of 10, he faked a poltergeist, using small illusions. It would be the start of his hell. For the next two years he was under strict control from his parents, rarely leaving home.

When he was 12 years old, his younger sister died, allegedly by his fault. This was the turning point in his life: He was sent to a boarding school, in an exile that would shape the man he would be.

His magical studies started at the same year he entered the school. Using an almost natural investigation instinct, he would discover places hidden for mages only, gradually acquiring more knowledge. Obviously, he was still a child, which stopped his quick evolution. The next 4 years were experimental ones, with William impersonating the "trouble child" stereotype at its best, adding the magical factor, and with the company of a few friends that followed his "philosophy" of life.

His group of friends would be known for trouble, drugs, and the will of messing with magic. Apart from William, only a girl had magical ability, naturally putting them as a self destructive relationship. Throughout all this period, his family forgot him, only paying for his school, keeping he away at all costs.

At the end of high school, the girl would cross the final line: She would deal with the "soul market", selling the souls of the other members of the group through "intimate" means. William escaped it, but didn't escape from feeling partially guilt. They would break up the partnership.

Through the next years, William would be a "magical nomad", traveling around the world in search of the results of his researches. That placed him among the most prodigious mages worldwide, giving him connections that make the backbone of his future operations.

Currently, William is known as a "rebelled urban mage", working as a freelancer magical investigator. A rebel before being a thief, a thief before being a rebel, a rebel before being an explorer, a explorer before being a mage that could unite all these talents: This is the best definition of William Brookes.

Powers/Abilities:
  • Various degrees of magic: Experimentation, research, and an unnatural talent for the magic and the occult arts made William a prodigy of the magical trade. From a simple fireball to complex spells, he probably knows it, and can pull it with great technique.
  • Detective: Be it normal cases or supernatural ones, William is adept to the art of tracking, deduction, lockpicking, disguise, and even pickpoceting. This habit led to some people believing that despite the lack of formal superior education, William is a rather intelligent man.
  • Higher than average memory: His impressive magical knowledge is fruit of learning and remembering what he read, part of naturally good memory and magic resources to keep the most important things safely locked away in his mind.


Weaknesses
  • Human Physiology: He can be smart, he can pull off impressive spells, but in the end he's just another normal human. If he doesn't cast the proper defense spells, a fall or serious blow can cause him some serious injuries, and a bullet to the head will kill him just as the normal human.


Equipment:
His overcoat, enchanted to be comfortable under any circumstances and amplify the power of his spells, an extensive magical paraphernalia (which he keeps at his home, takes part of it in jobs), some artifacts, and his phone.

Likes: Alcohol, money, magic
Dislikes: Traditionalists, racists, have a certain distrust with government
Theme Song: One day, I'll find one theme song fitting when making an app. But this day is not today.


Additional information:
He tends to be overprotective with his niece, Mary.

Character Application


Name: Sir Winthrop Eddleton the Younger, Scion of Her Majesty's Estate of Wessexshire and Cog-Emperor of the Dessicated Machine Empire, Orator of the Apocalypse, Forged of the Heart of the Mountain, Spire-Lord of Eternity, Bearer of Pretentious Titles, and so forth, and so forth.

Superhero Name: Nah.

Age: Aggressively indeterminate.

Gender: Maleish.

Race/Species: Vaguely human. Homo sapiens sapiens, at a guess.

Appearance: Winthrop is clad in a waistcoat of the finest silk, a deep sable black that matches his charcoal-gray drainpipe slacks, and his undershirt is of a resplendent white that never seems to dim. His face is a study in classical form, chiseled or crafted to possess some unnatural allure that can make men weep and women faint, though his eyes spark with a thousand colors that are impossible to describe without descending in to madness. Ferociously tall, nearly eight feet in height and four in breadth, Winthrop-Who-Walks is an unnatural monster of a man. Those who listen closely to his passing note the sound of grinding cogs and whirring gears, and even occasionally muted voices seeming to emerge from within his dapper attire. Under his obsidian-black stovepipe top hat a single crystalline monocle perches precariously within the grasp of his left eye, glinting with colors no pane of glass has realistically possessed. A neat trimmed goatee of similar black is set off by somewhat wild and shaggy hair that sprouts at seemingly random intervals from beneath his headgear, though at other times it appears nicely combed and well-ordered indeed.

Personality: Callous, insane, bloodthirsty, megalomaniacal, ordered, obsessive, cruel, private, sociopathic, gregarious, volatile. All are words that have been applied to Winthrop-Who-Walks at one time or another.

Biography: Winthrop has walked many paths, some that other men have trod, some that only beings of the gibbering nightmare between worlds know of. Reports of his sojourn across the multiverse mention a time that a younger version of the man now manifested strode across a world inhabited only by women, doing battle with a sentient castle of sand and creating an empire of golems to fight tentacle demons. Other whispers from the bleedthrough of the stars recount him communing with Norse deities as he devised infernal contraptions with which to conquer one of many worlds. If asked, he may regale the unlucky listeners with accounts of bizarre futures where Canadians became mindless zealots and had to be put down with his moose-javelining prowess, and of orbital insertions by the seat of his silken pants alone. Behind his eyes glints knowledge of a nuclear apocalypse, of a population turned to cyborg slaves of a mad Indian drug lord, and other atrocities beside. But perhaps all of those reports are true- perhaps none of them. Winthrop's past is a tangled knot that no sane man should try to unravel.

Powers/Abilities:
  • Arcane Practicioner: Winthrop was once reported to the authorities for reanimating a body made of stolen parts of cadavers with lightening. The ensuing police action left most of Eastern Europe in flames. Also, across several realities he has raised the dead, created nonsensical beings powered by wood alone, and been the forefather of a race of self-replicating golems with steampunk proclivities.
  • Eldritch Abomination: The man that now walks this world is a bizarre amalgamation of a dozen different realities; not entirely composed of the stuff of which the world is made, part of him is of the matter of the Place-between-Places, lending him a certain degree of control over the improbable and resilience against the more mundane fabrics of the world. The warpstuff that comprises his form can replicate and mimic baryonic matter, at significant cost.
  • Mekanist: Some say the rules of the universe are just a lie we all agree on. Some say only the crazy believe such an obvious fabrication. Winthrop has seen the truth of those rules, and it has driven him to be just one fry short of a Happy Meal. At the same time, though, it lends him a certain credence when it comes to stealing money from Gravity to pay Thermodynamics for the parking violation. Some machines the madcap scientist creates work despite all indications to the contrary, often frightfully well.
  • Terrible Strength: The body of the creature called Winthrop is no longer truly human- indeed, no part of who was once Winthrop Eddleton remains. Through fell rituals, blood sacrifice, and other assorted niceties, the shambling corpse that is the Scion of Eddleton is composed of the organs and tissues of no less than seven creatures, some more than human, and is in many ways largely modified both mechanically and mystically to fulfill the desires of its master. Though Winthrop can masquerade simply an overly large human male, in truth he has little in common with the species, possessing the resilience of a futuristic battle tank, a distributed psyche, and extreme regenerative abilities, as well as the ability to pummel his way through reinforced steel without bruising his fists.


Weaknesses
  • Schizophrenic: Winthrop-Who-Walks is only one part of the psyche the Arch-Arsonist acquired in his journey through time and space. Though by some measures his eccentric mental configuration is an asset, it also hinders any ability to work with others, or, indeed, appear normal over any period of time.
  • Ravenous Hunger: The flesh golem that is Winthrop requires constant refueling, his aggregated lifeforce and various arcane burdens (curses) too much for blood and bone to contain easily. Normally Winthrop deals with these issues by disposing of the unwanted or unmissed of any city he may happen upon, but without a steady supply of new sinew and marrow his otherworldly character begins to subsume his mundane carapace, which is quite painful and indeed detrimental to what shreds of sanity remain to the man.
  • Dread Annihilator: The warpstuff of which Winthrop is partially composed is no mere inert material- it has a certain degree of emergent intelligence, utterly alien to the mind of man. If allowed to replicate unchecked it can render swathes of land uninhabitable with undefined forms of radiation and hostile bleed-throughd from the world between worlds, which are remarkably detrimental to human life.


Equipment:
The Cane of the Imperial | A richly inlaid walking stick of deepest ebony wood, its provenance is unknown, but it's history is evident. An heirloom of the House of Eddleton, it has been passed down from generation to generation, coming to Winthrop on his sixteenth birthday as a sign of the heir of the House. It is topped in a Damascene steel wolf snarling, the symbol of the House, forged from the metal of melted Ottomite blades. The sturdy wood of the cane has proven unbreakable by many dire forces over the years, and it is a formidable close combat weapon when wielded with strength. During Winthrop's tenure it has been modified to incorporate an exotic projectile device issuing from the lower end of the black shaft, one which throws molten lead at a speed that can take off heads or limbs at medium range. Exactly how it functions Winthrop can't recall, for he has never had to reload it nor found it to misfire, despite being fouled with grass, dirt, and even through a locked vault door. It is technology of a different age, an age of space and insane entertainment squids.
The Void-Speaker | An odd weapon, a projectile gun many times more powerful than the automatic weapons of the age, when Winthrop was summoned to this world he bore it aloft. As large as a normal man's torso, an odd device that belches smoke and flame at irregular intervals, the Void-Speaker is a horrifying weapon that gives even the most hardened of assailants pause. Maybe magic, maybe mundane, it is rumored it is powered by the worship of mechanical beings from another time and place, an Aspect of potentially terrible power. The searing bolts of crimson it throws at the Scion's touch can rend head from body, and body from existence. The sound of its firing is the wail of a hundred thousand damned souls, and a whispered Altamont.

Will finish this and my race app later.

Character Application


Name: Llok-Gugnasci-Kraqusamm

Superhero Name: Steve

Age: Eh old, but appears in his late teen's to early 20's in his human form.

Gender: Male, kind of

Race/Species: Dark One/Lovecraft Alien

Appearance: He possesses two true forms, one invokes horror/fear the other insanity.

his most common form is this, without the hollow mask though.

Personality: Eccentric, while he is both insane and fear inspiring, he is generally a good guy when he isnt causing people to scream "AHH MY Sanity" when they look at him.

Biography: He is not like most of his kind, many of which are hybrids Of Dark Ones and other beings. He was born, i guess you could say, from a union between two ancient and powerful Dark Ones. He is young compared to some of his race, but despite being young he is relatively stable and powerful. Eventually he formed a humanish appearance different from either of his true forms, another thing making him unique among his kind. He is viewed as a Pariah of sorts, among his kind, this is because many of his kind enjoy causing their mental or emotional aspect. His choice to have a fully human form only compounded the difficulties.

Almost a century ago he visited earth a few times out of curiosity. It was in 1937 that he met Author HP Lovecraft, he was not the first to meet the author. The author thought he was of note however as he wrote about the alien in his private journals. This caused some issues, Llok only found this out recently when a ritual to summon him failed, but some of his power was still transferred to a mortal. This made him curious as not many things in his experience can cross dimensions so easily. Recently he has answered a summoning on Earth, and has appeared in front of the cult that summoned him.
Powers/Abilities:

  • Insanity Manipulation When in the suitable form, his very appearance can cause the weak-minded to become insane. He gains power from insanity and it must be gathered in order to assume the form in which he is adept with it. He can vaguely sense insanity, and he can only gain power from it when it is say within 10-15 ft.
  • Fear manipulation Same as the above, but related to fear. Can cause insanity however, by showing one their worst fear.
  • Shapeshifting: He possesses three forms including his human one. The other two are greatly tied to his other powers, Insanity and Fear, respctively.
  • Tentacle generation Only available in his human form. he can created tentacles from his form to act as extra appendages. They can seemingly regenerate endlessly.
  • Cthulu mythos physiology In all of his forms he is stronger than normal beings like him. though each still have their own weaknesses. He can also regenerate slightly, the regeneration is increased in areas where the Dark Ones Magic prevails.
  • Dimension Manipulation [He can create small rifts between dimensions and create pocket dimensions to store things, they are only a few meters in size at max. He can also only travel to and from his home dimension to places that have rifts connected to his dimension already.]

Weaknesses
    Besides his racial weaknesses he has a few.
  • Form limitation: While his non-human forms are powerful, they require time to build up power from the related emotion or mental state.
  • Tentacle Degeneration: While his tentacles can seemingly regenerate, they are merely switching with uninjured ones to give the damaged time to heal. He also has a limited number of tentacle s he can generate. They can only regen when switched if they are damaged and remain in this plane then they can start to dissolve.
  • Mental instability: While more stable than many of his klind, his inhernet powers make him less than stable at times. This in turn can make him extremely reckless and can even cause mental injuries for him, adding on to the fact that he lost a bit of himself a few years ago.


Equipment: None

Likes: eating mortal food, causing insanity, helping people
Dislikes: His own dimension, those who meddle in affairs that do not concern them.
Theme Song: Al Azif-Great Old Ones

RP Sample: TBD

I realized yesterday that I'm only involved in two active RPs. That's no way for a Mentor to behave.
