PERSONAL CHARACTERISTICS
Character Name: General Romulus Aphrodisiac
Character Gender: Male
Species: Enhanced Human (enchanted implants)
Age: 33 (Though technically many centuries old, given time dilation from his own reality)
Appearance: If you can get his armor off, he essentially looks like a tan, bald, dark hair bearded man. Who of course still stands tall in and out of his armor. And his physique looks appropriate for his job.
URL to Character Picture, if any: If any you say, heh.
Primary Objective: (What is your character's main goal? This should be the thing that drives their part of the plot.) Find a way to get the hell home!
Secondary Objectives: (What other goals does your character intend to achieve? These should drive subplots.) Form a interdimensional enclave extension for the Wilhelm Imperium. He is a conqueror and statesman after all. And spread the Wilhelm Imperium's influence everywhere.
MUNDANE SKILLS
List Mundane skills here:
-Organization and planning
-Combat training of the slashing and shooting variety
-Leadership and speech
-Power armor training and maintenance
-Extensive knowledge of the history of the Wilhelm Imperium (Up to Wilhelm XXIX)
-Tea brewing
SPECIALIZED SKILLS AND TALENTS
These are specialized skills that set you apart from the average person. You have 7 points to spend here. Examples are swordsmanship, sniper, coercion, piloting etc.
Ability 1 and Points Spent: Swordsmanship-4
Ability 2 and Points Spent: Strategy and Tactics-3
OPTIONAL SUPERNATURAL CHARACTERISTICS
Ability 1: Wilhelm's Ignorance (Magic Disruption field)
Power Level: 4
Strengths: Aura implant that gives very good resistance to magic and supernatural sources that would target Romulus (Spells, curses, certain abilities, etc), through creating a disruption field around him. And gives him a damage boost to anything he doesn't believe that isn't mundane.
Weaknesses: Is entirely based on Romulus's seer willpower to deny the existence and plausibility of that magic and it's user. If he even thinks it could work, his aura won't work. And anything sufficiently powerful will go straight through anyway, and it won't do anything if he finds it mundane (and it is actually mundane).
Restrictions: This is completely based on "Clap your hands if you believe!" logic. And the boosts arn't too
Ability 2: General's Grace (Regeneration)
Power Level: 3
Strengths: Can regenerate from wounds, and be healed faster. Also allows him to hit more without physically damaging himself.
Weaknesses: He still feels everything, and gets more angry from it for awhile. And anything powerful enough will still go through like butter.
Restrictions: Not always starts to work instantaneously, and takes time.
MAGICAL OR SPECIAL ITEMS
List:
-A magic sword called the "Magnum Langschwert Madeleine." Made out of crystal prisms and the strongest metals the Regime of Wilhelm XXIX could muster. Its special properties burns and melts most materials at very close proximity, and can easily boil flesh off a man. And as a sword, it cuts through most metals like actual butter. Good training is obviously required to use it without killing the user, but by most standards, it's a powerful and effective instrument. It also creates a very bright rainbow effect every time it's used, and can be alternatively used as good light source.
-General's Power Armor equipped with a 1 pounder wrist mounted autocannon, and runs on a Hydrotectonic V9.1/3 engine power plant (it needs hydrogen and steam). The alloys used were considered near best of the time of Wilhelm XXIX, so it's pretty damn resilient by even modern standards still, and that's not factoring added power supply. Also comes equipped with the Magnum Langschwert Madeleine Gauntlets that allow the user to even hold the sword without it burning and melting them, being made out of similar material, alongside the customary MLM Scabbard. The armor also has several utility tools installed.
BACKGROUND
Education or Training: Wilhelm Imperium Modern Major General Academy of Hackory.
Character Background/Biography:
Hailing from the Wilhelm Imperium's province of the Madeleine Heartlands, located in the Contritione Pervalida Mundos Universe where the Wilhelm Imperium makes its domain, among infinities of other domains and realms. Romulus Aphrodisiac was raised from his statesman of a father, under Wilhelm Creed. As Wilhelm XXIX's Regime began, Romulus was already enrolled in the Wilhelm Imperium Modern Major General Academy of Hackory, learning everything of the might of the Dynasty and the Imperium, and its many foes over the centuries. He was very eager to serve the Imperium. Eventually when time came for former General Titus Everest to die of old age, Romulus was the first to nominate himself as the successor, having trained his whole life up to that point to have the position, and having served in many of former General Titus Everest's campaigns. Amused by his initiative and history, Wilhelm XXIX made him the new General on the spot, and tasked him as he did with his predecessor, to conquered the known frontiers to create more known frontiers, and to maintain control of existing provinces. It was the duty of all Generals of the Wilhelm Imperium.
After years of conquering the frontiers, and wiping out dissidence with no slowing down. His known career will finally come to a climax, at least as far as history after that will say about him. Almost through with the task of wiping out the Prismites that had been a thorn of the Imperium for several Wilhelms, Romulus was close, very close. But on the faithful day of the final blitz against them, the weather had turned violent, the Prismite Warlocks were messing with the weather in a last ditch effort to prevent their utter genocide. But as the blitz commenced, the Imperium's seer determination overpowered all odds, and on the final hour of the day cycle, Romulus had cornered the last Prismite Arch-Warlock. Having spent it's lifetime fighting a hopeless war against the Imperium, the Pismite chose to sacrifice itself by doing the forbidden. Tearing a thread through space time.
As the thread tore, a tear enveloped, sucking Romulus into it before he could kill the last Arch-Warlock. Being hurled into universes and realities, just narrowly avoiding being stretched to oblivion. Crossing over to dimensions and back. Romulus was eventually hurled to his final destination, here. He is now unaware of what exactly happened to him, unknowing of the extent of what had occurred, and has happened in his absence. Back in his home, time had already past far too late for his own time. He is remembered centuries later as the fabled General of Wilhelm XXIX, the one that was lost destroying the Prismite Menace. He will likely never know everything of his home, given him being now stranded in the universe and reality that's not his own. And being left to what horrors reside here.

"Kill me Cer..." Work gasps from beneath the rubble of the old laboratory, "Just... do it."
The biochemist peers down at the entity that has made his life miserable for decades. He raises a foot and turns to leave.
"No... you bastard! Just end it! Do it, come on, do it now!" Work cries out, all pretense of power and self-respect draining out of it as it begs to at least be given a dignified ending, even as it wallows in its own feces and vomit, "Kill me!"
Cer pauses. He turns and walks over, an easy stride betraying the enjoyment he is getting from seeing his nemesis taking its final breaths. He bends over and picks up the rifle, the barrel lowering until it gently settles on Work's forehead.
Click.
The barrel rises and Cer offers a grim smile as he displays the magazine and the bullet fallen from its chamber.
"Do it yourself."
Pocketing the metal rectangle, he sets the bullet down just out of reach of Work's bloodied arms, the rifle set on the opposite side.
"Just end it!" Work lets out a sob, and Cer pauses to reflect. Perhaps he had been too hard on this entity. After all, it was not just him that work tortured. It was responsible for the suffering of many others.
His thoughts turn to the many nights he lost his keys and his eyes narrow. Work did not deserve mercy.
The easy stride resumes, and Cerillium offers a hollow laugh as he walks away.

... When we got there, we sat in the theater, we waited, some guy in a suit walks in and says the viewing was cancelled due to "satellite issues." Because apparently movie theaters now streams their movies via satellite instead of having physical copies in the theaters themselves. So they shuffled us out of the theater, gave us a refund, and said we were free to watch something else.
I was pissed.
Granted, they DID say that as apology and compensation, they would let us come back for free on Sunday, which my family easily can. But still, my reaction to having planned this day for weeks on end in advanced, sitting down all psyked out, and then being told, "Sorry, not today folks" did garner a reaction of... Not to mention I feel bad for other people who probably can't come back on Sunday at all, which will be the only time they show it (yesterday and Sunday were supposed to be the only days it got shown in theaters, so it's not so much compensation as it is covering up the shittiness of them chopping two days into one). I personally think they should add an extra day to the showings as real compensation for those people.
