The problem is, it's still basically Sylar from Heroes. The name and backstory is more important to a character than what their powers might be.


Yes the name is the same, but I changed most of the bio. All that I left was what the ability did to cause him to become a serial killer.

Rewording this.

He can only mess with existing vectors that aren't currently affecting him directly, and he can only manipulate what he can see.

In that case, what's the point in even keeping the name if your character is no longer Sylar? Frankly, the name is probably one of the least important aspects of a character so you're as well changing it for the sake of originality and smoothness if nothing else.

Besides, in the universe of the RP, Heroes does exist as a TV show, so if there's a character going around calling himself "Sylar" then all he's going to get is ridicule from everyone thinking he's a film geek wannabe.

Jormengand wrote:Right, im gonna join. Again;
Name: Pedro Ignacio
Age: 14
Occupation: Student
Nationality: Spanish.
Height: 5 foot 5
Weight: 8 stone
Hair: Brown, long for a boy at the back.
Eyes: They change colour, depending on what he's thinking.
costume(other than school clothes): A shirt, a jumper and trousers. They turn to chainmail, a bulletproof shirt and platelegs when his ability is used.
Brief Bio: Pedro was a relatively normal boy, except for mild asperger syndrome, until he discovered his abilities, and was sent to superhero high. He follows the path of gold dragon disciples, giving him extra abilities.
Abilities(maximum is two): He's a dragon disciple, granting him wings, dragonfire, fire immunity and the inherent ability to speak draconic. (These are all one ability, being a dragon disciple)
His other ability is more complicated, the ability to turn any object into another, with restrictions. For example, he could have a percy jackson-style pen/sword, but could not turn a 2p coin into a house. Being sensible is advised. In any case, the object retains its original weight.
weakness: The eyes make it easy to tell what he's thinking. Obviously, the disciple powers are next to useless in water.
Alignment(Hero/Villian/Vigilante): Neutral. There are Higher powers at work here.
Likes: Dragons, fire, people of either gender :kiss:
Dislikes: Evil, especially from religeous convictions, prejudice, especially from religious convictions, overly good idiots, absolutionists...
And the character development:
Pedro Diablo Ignacio:

Goals, aims and motives: Pedro doesn't really want to be here, he's only here since commander Drach'tyr'yon ordered him to be. Reasons notwithstanding, Pedro is determined to have as good a time as possible. He isn't actually insane, it's just that he reacts violently if threatened, insulted or angry, which makes certain people (Cough, Scott, Cough) think he is. He's easily influenced by others opinions after years in the tower (yes, yes, Sandra was right.) but he's likely to question direct orders after years under the command of his less-than-failsafe leutenent Va'li'onn. Since arrival in the school, he seems to have made several enemies (Scott, Sandra, Cen, Izon, Zassosk...) and few friends, and is attempting to patch that up.

Planned Character development: As for character development, I'm not quite so sure. Powers-wise, his draconic abilities will increase (The commander can actually turn into a dragon) as will his own abilities (although the coin-house transformation will still not happen. Character-wise, he'll become slightly more normal person and generally get on better with people, take orders better and not be so stupidly headstrong. He might make some vague attempt at getting into a relationship later, but he's not really sure yet (by which i mean I'm not really sure yet).

Although basically true neutral (good through evil methods and chaos through lawful methods=TN) Pedro is not a complete "I'm neutral, do I look like i give a damn?" type of bastard - that would be pretty much evil in fact. He thinks good is better than evil, but isn't committed to upholding goodness on any abstract, universal, moral or personal level.

If Pedro ends up NG or CG he will stay on at the school as a teacher to help others, and the disciples of the tower will approve. LE or NE he will pretend to do this, while using the school to further his powers to fulfil his own ends. CN or TN he will stay because he wants to. LG or LN are just disgusting alignments, so he'll go back to the tower and take up some amazing seat of power, and be replaced. CE is a similarly horrible alignment to rp, so he'll be deemed a lost cause by school and tower and never be seen again.


EDIT: What just happened to my sig 0_0?

Well, I'm going to be working on the basis that the show has happened - as a show. If you're clling him Sylar, expect numerous snarky comments from Scott asking why your character's pretending he's in a TV show. I'm just sayin'

Name: Rachael Redwood
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Nationality: British
Height: Unsure of exact, but medium height
Weight: 9st
Hair: Long, blonde, usually in a ponytail.
Eyes: Brown
Costume: None yet, may gain one in course of year
Abilities: Control of water (very limited)
Alignment: Villain
Brief bio: Rachael grew up in Ireland with her sisters and father. She would usually forfeit friends for reading and sports. Her twin was always the one in the spotlight. Rachael liked to stay quiet and alone, sometimes only talking to her twin. Her sister Roxanne disappeared to attend the school, and Rachael was bullied over being the kid with no mum and a runaway slutty sister. And then her twin disappeared too. And then the world got attacked by vampires. It was only then when Rachael discovered her powers. She went into hiding with her father, and when Roxanne graduated and returned home, Rachael stole food and alcohol for them both. She hates the war, and along with that, both the regular humans and superherpes.

Agh, just saw your last post. Damn ninjas. But please can I get in, seeing as I was in the last threads...

Different character this time. Roxanne "Station Bike" Redwood is back in Ireland; this is her younger sister. Saune and I are still making up our minds about the current status of the ScottRox relationship.

Name: Melaniya Peshchera
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Nationality: Ukraine
Height: 6'7"
Weight: 146 lbs
Hair: Dark brown
Eyes: Red
Costume (if any): Something like this, perchance?
Abilities:
- Solar manipulation
- Flight
Alignment: Vigilante
Brief Bio: Born in the shadow of her own parents, growing up in a country living in the shadow of its eastern neighbors, it is small wonder that Melaniya has developed such a defiant personality, and such a distaste for the local law enforcement's corruption. The only power that showed up at first was her massive wings, which were present at birth.

Damn, that's my weakness...
It was funny that Ro was basically useless against VOR or VOL. VOE'd probably be a bad idea too, as he's immune to the fire and would probably try to rape her if she used the seduction power.

Actually, it's more that F7 is less intense than II, and seeing as I've been in this RP for four months, it's higher on my priorities than an RP on a planetary scale that was very far away from my comfort zone.
