(abbreviated is fine)Academy of Villains Application

Name: Dagon Argrave, Azrael

Age(Between 14 and 19): 18

Gender: Male

Appearance:
Image
In Costume
When not in the armor, walks around in a red hoodie, black jeans, and black boots.

Dimension: BA's Earth

Nationality: Unknown, seems American

Hometown: Unknown

Abilities(If any): As a result of the Archangel program, Dagon's strength, speed, agility, stamina, reflexes and senses are above that of even the greatest human specimen. He has an amazing healing factor, allowing him to heal from any injury and allows for immunity to telepaths, drugs, and poisons. Dagon is also an expert swordsman and gunfighter, able to put human fighters to shame. His true strength, however, lies in his ability to use his variety of skills and weapons.

Dagon's armor also grants him access to the Archangel feats, skills made to mimic those of archangels. Currently, these skills include teleportation circles to any coordinate of space or time, angel time (slowing down the perception of time mixed with super speed so he can react quicker to combat scenarios), flight, absolute nullification (unable to be affected by anything aside from mundane damage), shatter-point (the ability to find the weak point in any construct, both organic and inorganic), and the activation of the Sword of Sin and Salvation. However, Dagon has reason to believe there are more skills, waiting to be unlocked.

Finally, due to the strange mix of the arcane and science, Dagon's mind can "read" the fourth wall. This allows him to gain limited foreknowledge of events, and learn about people and creatures where he otherwise would not, all thanks to a narrator he calls Doc.

Equipment: The Suit of Sorrows is a techno-organic armor fused with arcane energy. Created originally as a means of keeping the rampant healing factor in check, the Suit syphons the life-force of the wearer to repair and power itself. The Suit has a variety of functions, most of which have not been discovered. However, he knows it can absorb and reflect magical and energy based attacks, increase his physical abilities, line-of-sight teleportation, scan his surroundings, and transform into street clothes. The Suit also is capable of projecting realistic holograms over Dagon, complete with audio. Dagon uses this to show the face he presents as his, a Caucasian male with brown hair and brown eyes. Finally, the Suit has hammer-space poaches - a form of infinite storage named after the holes cartoon characters could pull hammers from.

His weapons are the Sword of Sin and the Sword of Salvation. The Sword of Sin is a magic flaming blade which burns bright when facing evil entities. It can morph into a pistol or a variety of explosive and heavy weapons. Equipment it forms are black with red runes. It is also capable of making those injured by it face the pain of the sins they've inflicted as an Archangel feat. The Sword of Salvation is a magic blade with a cold aura which glows blue when in the presence of good. It can morph into a pistol, or a variety of more precise weapons and gadgets. Equipment it forms are light grey with blue runes. As an Archangel feat, it is also able to force those who the sword passes through to tell the whole and unconditional truth. Both weapons are extremely sharp and can pierce most normal armors and shields, as well as through normal magical barriers and wards.

Weakness: Dagon was created to be a soldier useful in any scenario. As a result, he's a jack of all trades, master of none. Meaning badass specialists can prove a problem if he fights them on their terms. For example, while he can use minor spells, he'd lose a wizard duel against most students of the academy. While his physical capabilities are high, he can still be injured in the same manner as humans. Even his armor can sustain enough damage to allow damage to occur to Dagon's body. After taking enough damage to wear away the wards, his armor would do little more than attempt to cushion the blows, and his bones would slowly break under the constant barrage of attacks. It is particularly weak to legendary weapons from the monster dimension. Entrapment and threats to his friends also works as ways to defeat him without having to deal with his considerable might.

His healing factor is awesome, but takes time. The more damages, the more time it takes. Plus, he feels pain, and while he's usually able to get past it, major damage can render him solely focused on his own regeneration.

Finally, the Archangel feats and armor, while incredible, are fueled by his life-force. Normally, this just means the healing factor is kept in check, but while using the feats his healing factor is actually halted to that of a normal human. This means that should his armor fail, he can't heal himself until a short period of time after he stops using the feat. The period of time usual lasts about half an hour, but can increase depending on the scope and duration of the feat.

Bio: Imagine, soldiers who could strike with the fury of the heavens, someone who made their enemies feel as if Judgement Day had come early for them. This was the idea behind the Archangel program, a secret military project designed to be the perfect blend of genetics, technology, and magic. By augmenting a person's DNA to give them superhuman capabilities, altering their brains to make them unquestioningly loyal, then giving these individuals techno-arcane weapons and armor, the Archangels were set upon the world to preform impossible missions and black bag operations as the organization saw fit. However, they weren't perfect. Due to the nature of their missions, the Archangels would often take serious injuries performing their duties, which meant weeks or months in a healing chamber. Enter Archangel-7.

He was to be the first in a new wave of Archangels. Aside from the usual genetic alternations, Archangel-7 would also receive a powerful healing factor, allowing him to stay in active use for longer. Ironically, the healing factor would prove fatal if left unchecked. As a result, Archangel-7 was given an experimental set of techno-arcane armor and weapons which were powered with his own life-force. Full of amazing abilities, Archangel-7 would have every tool at his disposal. He was now a one-man special ops team, capable of fulfilling any and all roles for any mission. He was given the codename Duma, after the archangel of silence, because of his efficiency and his tendency to only speak when absolute necessary.

Duma was proving quite the asset, so the scientists decided to experiment on him further. They had recently discovered the "fourth wall," a sort of barrier between the fabric of reality that oracles and sages used to create their prophesies. While these magic users had been doing this naturally for centuries, scientist could now pinpoint where this "wall" was. Soon they began theorizing of what would happen if you linked someone's mind to this wall, hoping to create a soldier who would have a sort of precognition, able to avoid harm before it touched them. Because the scientists had no idea what kinds of adverse affects would happen to a human test subject, and knowing that Duma possessed an amazing healing factor, they decided to mess with Duma's mind. Through a complex procedure, Duma's mind was tied to the fourth wall. At that point, a rush of ideas and forces invaded Duma's psyche. Eventually, Duma sprang from the table, he mind suddenly clear. He remembered everything, every horrible act he had every committed, and it was all because of the Archangel program. Duma was dead. Arising from it's broken psyche was Azrael, the archangel of vengeance. And he knew who he'd bring to justice first.

Donning his suit, Azrael killed everyone inside of the testing chamber. As security forces rushed in, he barged past them, heading not for the exit, but for his brothers and sisters. He reached the cryochambers, and released the other Archangel. Manipulating the fourth wall, he freed their minds from obedience and together, they destroyed all traces of the Archangel program as best they could. As the complex was reduced to rubble, the Archangels went their separate ways, each trying to atone for their deeds in their own way. Some left to hunt down the remnants of the program, others went to live normal lives. Azrael chose the third option. When he was connected to the fourth wall, something happened. He didn't know what it was, but he knew he would play a role in whatever it was. Taking the name given to him by the narrator, Dagon said goodbye to his family and moved on.

Traveling to the UK, he stayed at the Badass Academy as an observer. Here, he made some close friends, something he had never done thanks to the Archangel program. He also learned what it was he felt the day he was connected to the fourth wall: it's deterioration. Monsters had entered the world of man, and he had to stop it. He was then the most experienced student of Badass Academy, ready to help defend the world with his new found friends.

After years of fighting, Badass Academy finally finished the war, restoring order to the Veil and beating back the overlord. However, when they sealed him away, he promised that he would return, with help from another from beyond this dimension. Worried, Sentinel sent Dagon across dimensions to those most capable to extra-dimensional travel. After several trips, he has landed here, with little memory of the briefing Sentinel gave him. He only knows to head to the Academy of Villains, and hope he can remember what the rest of his mission is.

Personality: Loves to talk, very happy, makes jokes. Occasionally they're funny. He tries his best to help those he deems his friends, which is deemed through character and actions rather than who can get him farther in life. Is open to relationships, but is hesitant to get into one due to the nature of his existence here, and how the last one he was in left him with an arch-nemisis.

Your app isn't bad. Mine's the way it is through lots of refinements.

You like the armor? It's new, so I'm curious on an outsiders opinion.

I feel as if the armour's abilities are pretty average, but oh boy, the potential for character progression is amazing! What if it's a neural uplink and it goes fucking ham on someone that Dagon REALLY hates?! What if he becomes stronger over time? What if it suddenly gains the ability to summon bagels?! YEAH!

I was actually more talking about the appearance, but I'm glad you like it's abilities. Yeah, I purposely don't list out all of the suit's powers because I want him to slowly gain powers based off the experiences he has. Gets into a close brush with death while in the cold depths of space? Start learning the limits of the suit's environmental control, oxygen reclaimer, and propulsion systems. The important things is that the learning has to happen after the event, or else I'm just pulling crap out of my ass, which is never fun for anyone.

I feel as if the armour's abilities are pretty average, but oh boy, the potential for character progression is amazing!

I was actually more talking about the appearance, but I'm glad you like it's abilities. Yeah, I purposely don't list out all of the suit's powers because I want him to slowly gain powers based off the experiences he has. Gets into a close brush with death while in the cold depths of space? Start learning the limits of the suit's environmental control, oxygen reclaimer, and propulsion systems. The important things is that the learning has to happen after the event, or else I'm just pulling crap out of my ass, which is never fun for anyone.

I have gazed beyond the bounds of infinity, the folds of reality that keep us entombed in disillusion, hiding us from the treasures of ultimate knowledge, and thus, ultimate power.

If knowledge is power, then we are all powerless and the universe is god.

A better application than mine...

Your app isn't bad. Mine's the way it is through lots of refinements.

You like the armor? It's new, so I'm curious on an outsiders opinion.

It's basically the same suit but in more of a war ready state. It's the one Azrael where in Arkham Knight and if you played that then you know he would need a suit that was built to last.
I believe that madness can find more madness, and that every ounce of madness has a spark of truth. And truth, as you know, has a way of depressing people who don't want to find it.

No one is 100% honest... We all keep 20% of the truth from the world, to protect ourselves & sometimes others.

Hey UFL, did Justice reply yet?

(abbreviated is fine)Academy of Villains Application

Name: Dagon Argrave, Azrael

Age(Between 14 and 19): 18

Gender: Male

Appearance:
(Image)
In Costume
When not in the armor, walks around in a red hoodie, black jeans, and black boots.

Dimension: BA's Earth

Nationality: Unknown, seems American

Hometown: Unknown

Abilities(If any): As a result of the Archangel program, Dagon's strength, speed, agility, stamina, reflexes and senses are above that of even the greatest human specimen. He has an amazing healing factor, allowing him to heal from any injury and allows for immunity to telepaths, drugs, and poisons. Dagon is also an expert swordsman and gunfighter, able to put human fighters to shame. His true strength, however, lies in his ability to use his variety of skills and weapons.

Dagon's armor also grants him access to the Archangel feats, skills made to mimic those of archangels. Currently, these skills include teleportation circles to any coordinate of space or time, angel time (slowing down the perception of time mixed with super speed so he can react quicker to combat scenarios), flight, absolute nullification (unable to be affected by anything aside from mundane damage), shatter-point (the ability to find the weak point in any construct, both organic and inorganic), and the activation of the Sword of Sin and Salvation. However, Dagon has reason to believe there are more skills, waiting to be unlocked.

Finally, due to the strange mix of the arcane and science, Dagon's mind can "read" the fourth wall. This allows him to gain limited foreknowledge of events, and learn about people and creatures where he otherwise would not, all thanks to a narrator he calls Doc.

Equipment: The Suit of Sorrows is a techno-organic armor fused with arcane energy. Created originally as a means of keeping the rampant healing factor in check, the Suit syphons the life-force of the wearer to repair and power itself. The Suit has a variety of functions, most of which have not been discovered. However, he knows it can absorb and reflect magical and energy based attacks, increase his physical abilities, line-of-sight teleportation, scan his surroundings, and transform into street clothes. The Suit also is capable of projecting realistic holograms over Dagon, complete with audio. Dagon uses this to show the face he presents as his, a Caucasian male with brown hair and brown eyes. Finally, the Suit has hammer-space poaches - a form of infinite storage named after the holes cartoon characters could pull hammers from.

His weapons are the Sword of Sin and the Sword of Salvation. The Sword of Sin is a magic flaming blade which burns bright when facing evil entities. It can morph into a pistol or a variety of explosive and heavy weapons. Equipment it forms are black with red runes. It is also capable of making those injured by it face the pain of the sins they've inflicted as an Archangel feat. The Sword of Salvation is a magic blade with a cold aura which glows blue when in the presence of good. It can morph into a pistol, or a variety of more precise weapons and gadgets. Equipment it forms are light grey with blue runes. As an Archangel feat, it is also able to force those who the sword passes through to tell the whole and unconditional truth. Both weapons are extremely sharp and can pierce most normal armors and shields, as well as through normal magical barriers and wards.

Weakness: Dagon was created to be a soldier useful in any scenario. As a result, he's a jack of all trades, master of none. Meaning badass specialists can prove a problem if he fights them on their terms. For example, while he can use minor spells, he'd lose a wizard duel against most students of the academy. While his physical capabilities are high, he can still be injured in the same manner as humans. Even his armor can sustain enough damage to allow damage to occur to Dagon's body. After taking enough damage to wear away the wards, his armor would do little more than attempt to cushion the blows, and his bones would slowly break under the constant barrage of attacks. It is particularly weak to legendary weapons from the monster dimension. Entrapment and threats to his friends also works as ways to defeat him without having to deal with his considerable might.

His healing factor is awesome, but takes time. The more damages, the more time it takes. Plus, he feels pain, and while he's usually able to get past it, major damage can render him solely focused on his own regeneration.

Finally, the Archangel feats and armor, while incredible, are fueled by his life-force. Normally, this just means the healing factor is kept in check, but while using the feats his healing factor is actually halted to that of a normal human. This means that should his armor fail, he can't heal himself until a short period of time after he stops using the feat. The period of time usual lasts about half an hour, but can increase depending on the scope and duration of the feat.

Bio: Imagine, soldiers who could strike with the fury of the heavens, someone who made their enemies feel as if Judgement Day had come early for them. This was the idea behind the Archangel program, a secret military project designed to be the perfect blend of genetics, technology, and magic. By augmenting a person's DNA to give them superhuman capabilities, altering their brains to make them unquestioningly loyal, then giving these individuals techno-arcane weapons and armor, the Archangels were set upon the world to preform impossible missions and black bag operations as the organization saw fit. However, they weren't perfect. Due to the nature of their missions, the Archangels would often take serious injuries performing their duties, which meant weeks or months in a healing chamber. Enter Archangel-7.

He was to be the first in a new wave of Archangels. Aside from the usual genetic alternations, Archangel-7 would also receive a powerful healing factor, allowing him to stay in active use for longer. Ironically, the healing factor would prove fatal if left unchecked. As a result, Archangel-7 was given an experimental set of techno-arcane armor and weapons which were powered with his own life-force. Full of amazing abilities, Archangel-7 would have every tool at his disposal. He was now a one-man special ops team, capable of fulfilling any and all roles for any mission. He was given the codename Duma, after the archangel of silence, because of his efficiency and his tendency to only speak when absolute necessary.

Duma was proving quite the asset, so the scientists decided to experiment on him further. They had recently discovered the "fourth wall," a sort of barrier between the fabric of reality that oracles and sages used to create their prophesies. While these magic users had been doing this naturally for centuries, scientist could now pinpoint where this "wall" was. Soon they began theorizing of what would happen if you linked someone's mind to this wall, hoping to create a soldier who would have a sort of precognition, able to avoid harm before it touched them. Because the scientists had no idea what kinds of adverse affects would happen to a human test subject, and knowing that Duma possessed an amazing healing factor, they decided to mess with Duma's mind. Through a complex procedure, Duma's mind was tied to the fourth wall. At that point, a rush of ideas and forces invaded Duma's psyche. Eventually, Duma sprang from the table, he mind suddenly clear. He remembered everything, every horrible act he had every committed, and it was all because of the Archangel program. Duma was dead. Arising from it's broken psyche was Azrael, the archangel of vengeance. And he knew who he'd bring to justice first.

Donning his suit, Azrael killed everyone inside of the testing chamber. As security forces rushed in, he barged past them, heading not for the exit, but for his brothers and sisters. He reached the cryochambers, and released the other Archangel. Manipulating the fourth wall, he freed their minds from obedience and together, they destroyed all traces of the Archangel program as best they could. As the complex was reduced to rubble, the Archangels went their separate ways, each trying to atone for their deeds in their own way. Some left to hunt down the remnants of the program, others went to live normal lives. Azrael chose the third option. When he was connected to the fourth wall, something happened. He didn't know what it was, but he knew he would play a role in whatever it was. Taking the name given to him by the narrator, Dagon said goodbye to his family and moved on.

Traveling to the UK, he stayed at the Badass Academy as an observer. Here, he made some close friends, something he had never done thanks to the Archangel program. He also learned what it was he felt the day he was connected to the fourth wall: it's deterioration. Monsters had entered the world of man, and he had to stop it. He was then the most experienced student of Badass Academy, ready to help defend the world with his new found friends.

After years of fighting, Badass Academy finally finished the war, restoring order to the Veil and beating back the overlord. However, when they sealed him away, he promised that he would return, with help from another from beyond this dimension. Worried, Sentinel sent Dagon across dimensions to those most capable to extra-dimensional travel. After several trips, he has landed here, with little memory of the briefing Sentinel gave him. He only knows to head to the Academy of Villains, and hope he can remember what the rest of his mission is.

Personality: Loves to talk, very happy, makes jokes. Occasionally they're funny. He tries his best to help those he deems his friends, which is deemed through character and actions rather than who can get him farther in life. Is open to relationships, but is hesitant to get into one due to the nature of his existence here, and how the last one he was in left him with an arch-nemisis.

Preferred Class(Optional): Beta

MBTI(Optional):

Thoughts?



This app looks really cool. The armor seems like pretty interesting and I like how you added weaknesses too. On a similar note, so, how long until the crossover begins? I'm really looking forward to it.

And I'm tempted to start phase one now. Basically, anyone from BA would appear with Dagon in a teleportation circle. We'd just be another couple students until phase two happens (when the extra-dimensional portal is made). That sound good?

Also Bycrest, you're right. I choose this armor because it looked more war ready. Also, did you play Arkham Knight? Cause Azrael was so cool in that!

I did, and Azrael's mission was definitely interesting. Obviously I won't go into spoilers for anyone who hasn't played the game but it definitely better all the tank fights they forced in.
I believe that madness can find more madness, and that every ounce of madness has a spark of truth. And truth, as you know, has a way of depressing people who don't want to find it.

No one is 100% honest... We all keep 20% of the truth from the world, to protect ourselves & sometimes others.

And I'm tempted to start phase one now. Basically, anyone from BA would appear with Dagon in a teleportation circle. We'd just be another couple students until phase two happens (when the extra-dimensional portal is made). That sound good?

Yep. Also when is Triss going to talk to Derek since Mercury is already talking to someone

Today's a Thursday, so expect a post late today. But she's going to be with Jen first setting up her and Desmond, so Derek could go see her at the cafe they're at?

And Bycrest I agree. I liked his tests a lot.

This app looks really cool. The armor seems like pretty interesting and I like how you added weaknesses too. On a similar note, so, how long until the crossover begins? I'm really looking forward to it.

I'll reply in the next post

I shall keep you on your toes. I posted again :D
