That moment when the character you're making gets his power taken by someone else. I don't want to complain because I'll come off as an asshole... But it really is inconvenient.

Ah well... On with life.

What'd you lose?
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

I think it would be prudent, in future things, to leave a tag and a claim for a specific power.

I wasn't planning on using creation (that's the reason he carries supplies around) and I'll leave the tattoos as an aesthetics thing (I was planning on using an Illustrated Man kind if thing- you know, by Ray Bradbury). I'll try for tonight, unless my parents turn the internet off (which they might).

Chaotic Neutral would best the best description. His powers are essentially that of Kitty from X-Men, and I feel him being able to see things through matter would require him to actually peek his head through. Makes more sense that way as X-Ray vision seems like a different power. I feel that he should not be Black-Ops due to him seeming to have gone AWOL, which would make some issues. Private Contractor I think would work better. Last thing is that there is no current way to camouflage yourself from IR as it detects heat so nix that.

I figured as much about the creation, was simply covering all bases. And I don't mind if you use the ink from your skin, I was just commenting that it would probably hurt like hell ripping that ink our and putting it back in is all.

Just gonna say, I changed my character's allignment to Lawful Evil, because while he is seemingly a good person... you cross him, become an obstacle to his own goals, or an enemy he is...not kind we will say

Also he, while just a mere assistant to a secretary, is manipulative, cunning, and ruthless bastard

Fair enough. So long as he's not killing people in the middle of a crowded street be as ruthless as you want.

I'd think he'd be either A) have gotten used to it, or B) it didn't hurt much in the first place. Probably A. It could probably be used to freak some other characters out.

Lawful evil, he has a code of ethics and logic...and not a psychopath that goes with chaotic evil.

NAME: Avery Fent
ALIAS: Spectre
NATIONALITY: British
ETHNICITY: Caucasian
AGE: 33
APPEARANCE: He also would be carrying with him a black umbrella.
Image


ALIGNMENT: Lawful Neutral
OCCUPATION: Gentleman, Scoundrel, Scholar.

ABILITIES: Avery is able to quickly unleash a large amount of a thick black fog that can easily cover a 15m squared area. Within the fog he is able to move well above average human speed as well as be able to sense anything within the fog itself.
SKILLS: If very polite counts as a skill, then he god damn well has it. Other than that Avery is skilled with a sword.
WEAKNESS: The weakness of any average human. The fog can easily be dispersed.
GOALS: Just to have a good time.
FEARS: Making a fool of himself, everything going absolute shit, running out of tea so much tea.

EQUIPMENT: A sword, which is sheathed in an umbrella (the sword being almost as long as the umbrella, about 28 inches). Flask of whiskey.

PERSONALITY: Exceedingly polite fellow that's very willing to work along with anyone. Comes off like he cares, when most of the time he really doesn't care at all.
LIKES: Whiskey (any whiskey at all), Tea So much tea
DISLIKES: Not having a good time. Not having any whiskey or tea.

BIO: Avery was not born a rich man. He wasn't even born a man. He is, in fact, a very regular human being. Well, as regular one can be while they're perpetually seeping a black fog as they grow up. Due to this abnormality Avery had while growing up, he never actually went to a school. He mostly was at his home being taught by his parents, even when he could control the fog and have it stop seeping off him he was still home schooled. It wasn't until he had moved away from his family did he realise that his whole life was the way it was because of both his powers and the fact his parents were actually quite poor. Somehow, he managed to get a job that gained him enough money to start a life of his own. Occasionally hearing on the news about the Variants existing and having abnormal powers, he soon knew what he was. At that time he received an email from The Benefactor requesting his presence in Seattle.

I think what Bei is saying is that we might already have someone with that kind of power and we really wouldn't like two of the same guy.

He can also sense what is in the fog. So basically he's the man in the fog, except with an umbrella sword.
