Gods Among Us V4.0 [Superhero] (OOC|OPEN)

[Dyelli Beybi]

For reference when Dartwood is moving again, I plan to have her approach some villainous characters to try to get them onboard with the idea of taking the knights down a peg or two. Are there any people who have a character they would like her to try to schmooze? To keep things ticking along quickly I don't want her flailing around in the dark trying to locate people

As a cop she'd know about Shanky the Clown right?

EDIT: Also, wrong thread.

[Primordial Luxa]

Thanks for the input. It's very appreciated.

However, as I tally thing up I realize we have a lot of factions in NY and organizing them might be weird.
We have to figure out something the includes
The Knights
The SS
The Illuminati
The Anti-Knights
The Denizens of Red Hook
The NYMD

I like the idea of the SS making gains while the Knights are busy. But perhaps we could have two separate turf wars going on.
1. The Anti-Knights & The Denizens of Red Hook VS. The Knights
2. The NYMD and The Illuminati Vs. The SS

How does that general set up sound?

Ugh...I still have manpower issues...
I mean sure, I can go on hiring all sorts of mercs and criminal gangs to do my dirty work but I sadly expect the Illuminati to have a massive home turf advantage over me.
And the NYMD? I seriously have nothing but a vampire and a cyborg here and pretty much no paranormal weaponry at all. I am in doubt if I can tackle a team of metas or magics in the US right now.
However, although the Illuminata have a home turf advantage, the idea of a proxy war sounds nice to me.

The Illuminati will be very hands off. They don't fight directly they prefer to use other organizations and people to do their dirty works. So while they've have a serious advantage it's likely they won't be a direct combatant. But perhaps we can think up something to even the fight. TG me ideas and troubles and we can figure stuff out.

I created Rupture specifically for that purpose.
She's a useful character and Dartwood might be motivated to get to her before the Knights or the Government does.

Dont know what to do with Snake Eyes now..

[Dyelli Beybi]

Also (having moved this to the right thread ) has anyone figured out what is wrong with Imogen yet?

Irrational fear of the Hounds of Tindalos?

Not IC. The teachers are worried about classes and preparing for the trip. Someone will notice something soon though. So you can expect the issue to get addressed.
Also feel free to add in the fact that Imogen got to call her parents during the time skip.

Irrational fear of the Hounds of Tindalos?

There is NOTHING irrational about being afraid of the Hound of Tindalos.

We were waiting on you to tell us.
Atlas and Dwight put her in a tube but you never told us if that did anything.
Dwight's been doing tests and experimenting but I haven't heard anything from you.

That's JJ, not Imogen.

Unless it's opposite day and no one told me.

Very true. Edit my post to make sense.

Indeed not... but that dog is the one from a West Country legend I am quite familiar with.

I'm sensing some really big plot behind all this information.

[Primordial Luxa]

Maybe give a shocked reaction that his boss just hired a man he called a terrorist?
Go after the Northern Mage?
Greet a soon to be returning Calamity?

Also everyone should expect my neck city post to be a timeskip.
Also Anowa your free to God mode people on to the bus if you need to speed things up.

[Granis]

So... Um... Could I maybe get some word on my city character? Please?

[Primordial Luxa]

Decided I want to make a city character, so here he is. Let me know if there's anything wrong.

Super Identity: The Dreaded

Real Identity: Adrien Gestahl

Is real identity known to the
public: No, thankfully.

Hero, Villain, Neutral: Wants to be a hero, but circumstances cause everyone to think he's a villain.

Age: 23

Gender: Male

Appearance:
Normal:
https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/83 ... 00x400.jpg

Enemy of the World: http://img01.deviantart.net/ac77/i/2016 ... ak09a1.jpg

Group Affiliation:
None, but if anyone's hiring...

Powers:
Enemy of the World:
Adrien possesses a scarf that, when worn, wraps around his body and transforms him into a new form with monstrously enhanced physical abilities.

However, this form comes with a terrible drawback. Anyone who sees it directly will succumb to their fight or flight instincts, meaning that anyone who sees him will either flee in terror or try to attack him. This has caused many heroes he has encountered to fight him, thinking him a threat to humanity despite his constant assurances that he means no harm, and subsequently painting him as a villain to any who hear of him. Only someone with exceptionally strong mental fortitude is able to resist this ability.

The scarf, however, is not truly a scarf at all. It is in fact the last remnant of a demonic entity Adrien encountered named Diz, agreeing to form a contract with the creature before it could die. It is possible that there are deeper, more powerful aspects to Enemy of the World, but Diz claims it would take a lot of damage being done to Adrien before he would be able to take manual control of their body, allowing him to use his true abilities, and even then, its possible that the possession will fail, causing the two of their minds to only partially merge, a process that would throw them into a mindless rage.


Equipment:
Diz, who has taken the form of a scarf in order to survive.

Weaknesses: (for each major piece of equipment and each power you should have one weakness.)
Viewing Enemy of the World instigates a fight or flight reaction in all but those with the strongest will, getting him into multiple fights and turning almost everyone who sees him against him, hence the name.

Background:
Adrien Gestahl is a man who, despite everything he has been through, has managed to stay relatively optimistic about the world, to the point where some may even call him naive if they hadn't heard his story.

When he was eleven years old, his mother died in a gas explosion at her workplace. His father, for reasons unknown to Adrien, refused to accept that it was a gas explosion that killed his wife, and and worked himself to the point of exhaustion to find the 'true' reason for his wife's death. This proved to be his undoing, as his blatant neglect of his health to focus on his search eventually led to his own death, leaving Adrien an orphan.

Refusing to let himself be taken to an orphanage, he ran from his London home, wandering across Europe doing odd jobs. It was hard at first, and he saw some truly horrible sights, but he also saw things that grew his faith in humanity, eventually deciding that above all else, he truly enjoyed helping people. This did not, however, mean he could relax, as he got into more than a few fights as a wanderer. He was largely on his own, and therefore had to learn how to survive on his own.

It was not until he was nineteen years old that he encountered the dying entity, Diz. The creature would not reveal how it had come into such a state, but was surprised when it realised Adrien wanted to help it. After a few moments, Diz revealed that Adrien could form a contract with it, which would allow it to live off the spare energy of his soul. In return, Diz would give him access to his power, Enemy of the World, although he explained the horrible price this power held. Naturally, as well as most likely stupidly, Adrien accepted with barely a second thought, seeing it as an opportunity for him to help more people.

Ever since that day, he has done his best to save everyone he could, even if they did never seem to appreciate it.

Summary: (a 1 to 3 sentence summary of the character that can go in the character vault. Keep it short and reference powers and backround.)
A young, idealistic English man who has made a contract with a demonic entity in order to save people, despite the fact that his power causes everyone to either fear or attack him whenever they look at him.

Accepted

>When you're waiting for someone to post in the City IC thread so you won't be the guy who double posted.

If you give me a quick summary of what's been going on in the city thread, I can write a post right now.

[Granis]

Also, am I a policeman? Because I thought I would fit firmly in the 'Other Guys' department, what with the way everyone thinks he's a villain.

[Glasyalabolas]

Ugh...I still have manpower issues...
I mean sure, I can go on hiring all sorts of mercs and criminal gangs to do my dirty work but I sadly expect the Illuminati to have a massive home turf advantage over me.
And the NYMD? I seriously have nothing but a vampire and a cyborg here and pretty much no paranormal weaponry at all. I am in doubt if I can tackle a team of metas or magics in the US right now.
However, although the Illuminata have a home turf advantage, the idea of a proxy war sounds nice to me.

Well I know the Siren Cartel wouldn't give up an opportunity to make money, so perhaps the mercs and criminal gangs you hire could be them?

Are there any people who have a character they would like her to try to schmooze? To keep things ticking along quickly I don't want her flailing around in the dark trying to locate people

Well if the above doesn't work out, Dartwood could be going through her regular day by responding to reports of gang activity, and encounter Conrad?

If your org is what it is, then they'd probably be hired first by the Illuminati who should have the better connections here.

I will post soon. Now even.
But I want to make sure we're all on board with the dual turf war plan.

ROE if you need help we can talk and introduce some additional character to help even the score.
Perhaps a team of straight up villains for hire willing to help the SS? Maybe the remnants of STRINGS's old gang.

Sure.
I only need some combat troops for hire.

Well we desperately need for villains that aren't organizations. So if other people want to create some evil doers then go for it.
If no one steps up then I'll make you a couple.

[Whalestron]

I've got my NYMD guy that could possibly be corrupted by a need for money or something

[The Flutterlands]
