New pic as the old one is unavailable now apparently.


Something like that, but with the color of a human flesh. I don't usually be disgusted by such image, but the one that's forming inside my head is something like tumorous blob of flesh with slithering slimy appendages,

I can find some amusement in that image. But you have to remember Steve is an Alderitch abomination I doubt the laws that govern our realm could hold him back.

Sorry for not getting a. Post up yet. Been a bit too angry with what's going on in the UK to put in the time and effort. Do the Justice Queens have a base of operations or anything? I'm thinking Cinder's main goal at the moment would be to go there and ask to join them.

EDIT: Never mind; Justice Tower. Man I need to get through some of this reading. Are any of the JQ lot there right now?

The Justice Tower, in the fictional Pandora City, in California.

Don't think any of them are there at the moment though.

Valancy will be headed back there, though, I think.

Mmmkay. If I'm picturing something like Stark Tower in the Avenger's movies, would I be far off? If it's something like hat then I might just have Cinder fly up to a balcony, set off a burglar alarm and then sit on a couch and wait to introduce herself to the first Queen that shows up to investigate. That's how superheroes tend to make friends, right? You know, casual home invasion?

I always imagined it like Titans Tower or the Fantastic Four tower but those may be similar to Stark tower.

I mean, is it basically a big ultra-modern skyscraper with a nice shiny glass and steel facade?

EDIT: And please let it be more like Stark Tower because I just googled those other two and they look hideous! :p

Shadowwell wrote:Character Application


Name: Ty Robinson

Superhero Name: Will take suggestions.

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Race/Species: Human.

Appearance: normally
Personality: Kind, give others a helping hand, knowledgeable, slightly reckless on occasion.

Biography: He got his powers from the Xantheian Box like so many. However in the beginning when he knew so little, his powers werent exactly apparent. His powers unlike so many others required him to know how what he changes is supposed to work, and not being able to simply will something to happen with no knowledge of how it works. Although he did not know he had there powers, he knew he was capable of strength far more powerful than most body builders let alone normal humans. it happened during a football game, He had been rushed by this massive Linebacker they called Tank, Ty panicked, he just pushed, hoping to lessen the damage done to him if at all.

The result was unexpected to say the least, Tank was launched away clear across the field and smashed with a sickening thud against the Goalpost. The teen was almost killed but was luckily able to survive. After this and a few other incidents he became determined to control his power and find out what it was. He discovered what it was during his graduation for Medical schol which happened to coincide with the Xantheian invasion. Someone bumped into him and his heightened senses at the time due to adrenaline let him realize that he could feel the body and change it. He was a sculptor and the body was his lump of clay.

Sine then he has established himself as a hero, though being a hero doesn't pay very well sometimes. It is for this reason he created the Alias 'The Doctor", a physical therapist of sorts that helped individuals recover from normally debilitating injuries and the like, as long as they pay him he will help, within reason though, he does have morals and a conscience. He was in NYC recently visiting an associate in the 5 Families whose son was made into a paraplegic through a fight. He keeps his hero and Doctor persona's seperate.
Powers/Abilities:
  • Enhancement of self: Due to his control over his body, he can increase his eyesight to beyond normal levels, or any of his other senses. He can also manipulate his body activating adrenal glands or the like. He can also increase his body’s speed or reflexes, or other similar things.
  • Body supremacy: He has near total control of his body and it’s functions. He can manipulate his body, to change his appearance, be it eye color, hair color or skin tone he can do it. He can also change how he looks to a varying degree. He can also determine what types of pheromones his body releases. His body can also endure and suffer more stress than a normal person would be able to, this aids his body in being able to survive the enhancements he does. Without needing enhancements he can utilize all of his body’s physical strength. He also has adaptive muscle memory letting him imitate nearly any physical move nearly perfectly after experiencing or seeing it.
  • Enhancement of others: He can give people who do not have any sort of enhanced attribute a temporary boost. He can also say, shut of a person’s sense of touch or something similar, though that is much more time and energy consuming to do, depending upon the degree of manipulation.


Weaknesses
  • The body has limits: While he can boost his own strength and other attributes to near maximum, he can still be overpowered or outclassed by those who possess attributes that are behind the maximum that a human can have. There is also a time limit for the enhancements. The Enhancements to his senses can cause problems. Should he enhance his hearing, loud noises can disorient him or even damage or burst his eardrums, same with enhancing any of his senses, or that of others. He also can’t make the body do anything that isn’t possible, while he can give himself infrared vision, True x-ray vision would be a no go (humans are capable of a limited version though), he could let himself breath underwater, but not go without air.
  • Tactile Contact: Both Touch and some level of concentration are required to alter another’s body, or to give them enhancements. He must make contact with the area he intends to affect, the greater the change the more contact and concentration is needed. He must als know what he is doing, what muscles or nerves he is affecting.
  • I Don’t think the body is supposed to do that:As the name suggests, If he does something using his powers to himself or others, there will be repercussions. Such as, over using his strength will result in muscle strain or even failure, that will take a while to repair, if he is even capable of that currently.If he causes himself to be double jointed, afterwards those joints will be stiff or painful.


Equipment: None, with exceptions. (he can create small tools from his one bones, by reshaping them, but any other type of thing is out of the question.)

Likes: Biology, experiments, helping people, winning.
Dislikes: idiots, foolish doctors.
Theme Song: (Optional)


Additional information:
Still WIP, would like opinion on the powers, rest will be added.

So, uh, does anyone mind if I have a planet from which my characters come from?
By reading the OP, I can see that it doesn't seem to be that prohibited, but still.

Little details:

-Ruled by two, extremely powerful beings that supposedly created the star system in which it remains. Only one will ever be important, and even so, only to the scale of my character's backgrounds, that won't escalate too far into broken powers, don't worry.
-It's about three times the size of Earth.
-Magic and overall power factors are things that exist and are actually fairly common.
-Several broken timelines break and make heroes of past times meet.
-There can sometimes be several incarnation of a character at different moments in time.
-The tech level ranges from late steampunk to post modern era, though the characters mostly have at most laser tech.

Do you think I need to make a faction directly, or do I just need to bring this into the world matters?

Because I've got a few characters I haven't played as much as I could due to various reasons.

Ah, I think I remember some of that.

I think you'd need to make a race app. Faction, not necessarily, unless there is a particular state, group or faction which you'd like to play a part in the roleplay or serve as background information to some character.
