Color me intrigued. Couple of questions before I make my app.

1) What tech level is this? I assume the upper class has access to the High Overlord's tech, but what about the rest of the world? I know it's sci-fi, but what does that mean? Is it like Star Wars with sentient robots, cybernetics and faster than light travel being readily available? Or is lower?

2) Are there businesses anymore? Like, is it possible for my character to be someone who creates and sells technology?

1) Lower. The most advanced AI not from the High Overlord's tech would be R31C (one of the characters). There are cybernetics but they are rare, very expensive and those with them are more often then not under Overlord control. No FLT for humans, heck the furthest they got was Mars before the High Overlord came. The only people with direct access to the High Overlord tech are the Overlords

2) Businesses like you purpose are under direct control of the Overlords.

3) It's in the OP. Everyone is in Suphia

1) Alright. So human tech is just a few years more advanced than what we have now.

2) What about salvagers/wreckers? People who brave the wilderness outside the city to gather resources from the relics of humanity's past?

3) Yeah, I noticed after I posted. I tried to edit it out but alas I was too slow.

Ok. So, is it possible to create an altruistic SR member with inventor style powers who's trying to improve the lives of everyone in the city?

Yes they are... But there is a lot of censorship.

What sort of stuff gets censored? Are we talking rating levels, or are we talking things like blocking out support for any way of life besides the one people are living now, removing 'propaganda' as such?

What do you think? Censoring anything that supports other ways of life and invite revolution.

Character App
Name: Alice Specter
Age: 23
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: Demisexual
Short Bio:
Protector and punisher.

Hunter and hunted.

Poor, rich, and in-between all at the same time.

Alice Specter, also known simply as Ghost, isn't your ordinary investigator. Her mission isn't to solve petty thefts or catch jaywalkers. In fact, the only position she has in law enforcement is the one she gave herself. Her mission is to seek out the forgotten ones, the abandoned ones, the ones no one else can or will help, to visit blunt force trauma upon the unpunished and deny the devil his day by any means necessary.

And never stop. Never.

But it wasn't always that way. No, once upon a time Alice Specter was a normal, cheerful child living on the Dome Surface. One dead mother, but that wasn't a problem. She barely remembered the woman anyway. It was when her father remarried that things went... poorly.

Her stepmother was kind to her father, but not to young Alice. As time went by, simple unkindness escalated to cruelty and then to outright psychological abuse--but only when Alice's father wasn't around. It was at this point that Alice began to realize the truth. The woman wasn't just cruel. She was sadistic. She started to see it in the woman, something dark about her that made Alice afraid. The torture began to escalate even further, until one day it went beyond mere psychological abuse. The resulting events, the report to the authorities, and her stepmother's subsequent acquittal shattered Alice's faith in everyone else... so she took matters into her own hands. To put things simply, she used a power that she had never known she had, and repaid her stepmother with hell on earth.

After that, Alice continued into adulthood with her abilities, and began to spread her influence. Taking the alias of Ghost, she became a vigilante and citizen in all three areas of the city, bringing justice to those who had received none and bringing to justice those who never were. Before their deaths, they would always receive the offer of purification--but it was a very rare thing for them to accept. Alice didn't mind that so much. She felt very little guilt over what she did. Those black souls who refused their last chance deserved their punishment--a death filled with the pain they had brought to those they victimized.


Appearance:
Image
Image
Image

The only difference between these pictures and the actual girl is that her eyes are dark gray, not dark blue.



Powers: Soul Reading, Purification--can only be used on a willing target, who must verbally acquiesce. Finally, Torment Inducement. Unfortunately for Alice, this ability comes with a price. Inflicting it upon another person means causing pain to herself as well. Due to this, she prefers to use more conventional methods if at all possible.
Stuff that you may own that may or may not be illegal: A very wide assortment of weaponry, from blades to firearms. Not that she carries them all at once, of course.


Occupation: Officially a psychologist(a very successful one, due to the whole Purification thing), unofficially a vigilante
Class: DS
Personality: Alice changes her personality like a chameleon depending on what situation she's in. However, her true self is harder, colder. She prioritizes morals above the law, hence her vigilantism, and her main desire is to bring justice to as many unpunished people and help to as many innocent victims as possible before she dies. She sees other pursuits as mere frivolities compared to this.
Likes: Justice(obviously), the chance to help people, when she manages to save someone
Dislikes: Injustice, corruption, people who get in her way


Alignment: Nah.
Theme Song: Acruta Lao D'nor


RP Sample: Teehee.

I mean, I can always make two characters. One for your Russian crime family, and one goody-goody inventor.

I keep thinking of Captain Cold from Legends of Tomorrow when I read your character, who was my absolute favorite character from the show. So that's alright a tick in your favor.

I keep thinking of Captain Cold from Legends of Tomorrow when I read your character, who was my absolute favorite character from the show. So that's alright a tick in your favor.


No more SR characters, according to Faal, but DS is possible I guess.

Wait really? But...but I wanna...

Yup, no more SR. Sorry, my budderoo.

But like I said, DS inventor could work... and you could still have connections to the Mob. They do know some ways to procure some... slightly old technological artifacts, don't you know! So if you ever get the hankering to tinker with some ArchAngel Co. tech...

Da, we Sokolov's have your back.

Well then. Considered me convinced. Now the only thing is do I make it a him or a her, and do I make it comic relief? What would fit better in your mob? Personally I don't care, I just wanna know what to make.

I just noticed that you made a psychologist. Now I want something to do with her. That way I can make nerdy psych jokes in both RL and in the RP.

Yeah, well, I may grill you for details. I may have visited a lot of psychologists in my almost-fifteen-year-existence(I stopped counting after the tenth), but that doesn't mean I know the inner workings of the human mind. All I can do is try my best and interrogate you on occasion. XD


However, I'm fine if you want to make a character somehow related to Alice. *shrug* Go right ahead.

Sounds good to me.

So, two servants with powers? Potentially three? Along with herself? That's a little too strange, at least to me... I mean, powers are supposed to be rare, and her Mari is with possibly three others and herself... If I was the Overlord of Suphia, I'd be gettin' nervous...

Also, when I said High Overlord, I meant Overlord of Suphia.
Strange? Yes. But for the sake of the roleplay... besides, she might even specifically gather powered servants. She does like curiosities. And the powered people are curiosities, that's for sure.


And hey, even if the Black Dragon does start paying attention to the girl, well, Marietta would probably react with nothing short of glee. It could even be a gambit... maybe she's a bit of a Misa and wants to get his attention. That would also explain the abundance of powers in one place... and it would be fun to play with.

Also, to update, the bolded scenario has been determined to be the case. So, Free, no complaining about all the powered people in one place. *wags finger*
