Ok, got it. But she'll be pissed every time someone calls her that.

Regarding Meta Zionism, that's not something Leila would be much of a fan of. Her philosophy is more like classic British (and other European kinds of) imperialism, with ideas of "The Meta's Burden". She believes that normies should be the subjects (but not slaves) of benevolent* Metas.

*= From her point of view, but humans won't necessarily agree.


DO you think Leila's heard of the Librarian before?

Just a few things. First, use a different name for your character for once (this is the second time I saw you use this name, at least) :P
Second, could you maybe cut out the stuff you didn't put in, such as the image tags and the optional stuff?
Finally, I'd probably consider this more Mundane/Mystical. Doesn't seem all that inhuman, and under Mundane it does say it encompasses the "kinesis"s. Oh, and physics professor at 24? That seems kinda unlikely, to be honest. Teacher maybe, but unless he's really really smart, he'd be too young to be a full professor (I think).
Other than that, it looks quite good, just wait for the approval of someone who isn't me.

Yeah, 28 or 30 more likely.

I'll edit it accordingly.

Once We Were Villains Character App
([url=Picture%20To%20Go%20Here]Image[/url])

Secret Identity: Jaxon Montgomery
Alias: Vapor
Age: 24
Personality: Jaxon is a very calm and collected man. He is not very empathetic and doesn’t care much about anyone but himself. He frequently gets bored with doing anything besides reading a book and smoking, and will get a bit whiney and agitated when someone interrupts him from his favorite hobbies.
Appearance: (Image)
Meta type: Mystical
Affiliation: Syndicate
Powers/Skills: Smoke Manipulation:
Jaxon can manipulate smoke he has produced to do a great number of things. He can solidify the smoke and make it into different constructs, such as weapons or shields. He can also create illusions out of smoke that can deceive a person’s sight and touch. Jaxon’s most amazing ability, however, is being able to create minions out of smoke that are autonomous and carry out Jaxon’s orders to the best of their ability.
Weaknesses: Jaxon’s main disadvantage is that he cannot naturally create any smoke. He must constantly keep cigarettes or vape pens with him in order to use his ability. Also, the more minions Jaxon creates, the weaker all of his other powers become. Currently, Jaxon’s limit is being able to create 10 minions from smoke, which leaves him powerless to manipulate anything else.
Backstory: Jaxon grew up with a normal, boring life, just as he liked it. He was an only child, so he spent most of his time hanging out by himself. School was easy for him, so he was able to spend most of his free time playing video games, reading books, or sleeping. It was as perfect a life as Jaxon could have wished for it to be. But, that changed when he was 16 and his mother died. Not only did that leave him with more responsibilities to do, giving him less time to relax, but it also led to his father becoming an abusive alcoholic. Jaxon was physically and verbally abused by his father constantly. Most of the time, he didn’t give his father the satisfaction of displaying any sort of pain he was feeling, but eventually, he broke. It happened when he was 17 and trying to enjoy a day sitting on his bed, reading a new Harry Potter book. His dad came in, cigarette in his mouth and a beer bottle in his hand, and started trashing Jaxon’s room. He destroyed his books, his games, and then went on to beat on Jaxon. Jaxon finally broke, and in a rare fit of rage, screamed at his father. When he did this, the smoke coming out of his father’s cigarette started to conglomerate towards his neck, before changing shape into a claw and wringing the life out of the man.

After that day, Jaxon ran away from his hometown and turned to a life of petty crime in order to practice his newfound ability and get enough money to survive. Eventually, Jaxon made his way into Syndicate territory and committed theft at a couple of the stores they offered “protection” to. Instead of killing Jaxon, however, they offered him the chance to join the organization. Jason took up the offer because he hoped life as a mafia gangster gave him more time to relax than the life of a runaway criminal.

This looks fine, I'll accept it unless anyone else has something to say about it.
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.

Secret Identity:The hound of mons
Alias:The hound
Age:102
Personality:gruff, loyal if subdued, sneaky, hates all things good
Appearance:(Image)
Meta type:Inhuman
Affiliation: Whatever he is forced to be in.
Powers/Skills: Claws and teeth can shred through metal, bulletproof fur. Able to jump and run twice as far and fast as normal human. Makes no noise when he walks.
Weaknesses: He's a dog. Fire.
Backstory:[ The Hound was created in early 1915, by a German scientist by the name of Hans Von Helter, a meta. He was created to end the stalemate on the western front by slaughtering British soldiers at night in order to crush their morale. This plan ultimately failed as on his first assignment he ate Von Helter and the four Germans sent with him. He then proceeded to kill 120 soldiers of both sides for the next few months. This spree ended with the introduction of incidinary shells, as he is highly flammable. He then walked for forty days to the eastern front, where incidinary shells were less common. He then proceeded to eat more soldiers but quickly stopped eating the Russians due to their nasty taste. His new habit of only killing Germans led to stories of a massive Russian bear.

Since 1915, the hound has trekked across Europe eating 567 people, all cold cases, including 6 metas and 4 so called heroes. He then boarded a cruise liner and arrived in America in 1974. He was surprised by the amount of heroes in America and stuck to the shadows, not wanting to be caught. Since 74, the hound has trekked across less populated cities, still eating people. Lastly captured by --------------- and was forced under their command, still trying to find anyway to break free and eat them. He has recently begun to experiment with the notion that he has more abilities as a meta, but thus far he has been unsuccessful. /b]
[b]Optional: Speaks 14 languages, all interned in him by his creator. These are German, English, French, Russian, Arabic, Mandarin, Japanese, Italian, Latin, Spanish, Indian, Dog, Cat, and Horse
Theme Song:
Voice Actor:
Likes/Dislikes: Human flesh/ fire and love
Fears: Fire and love
D&D Alignment: Pure Evil( At least for the start)


Need some character to control him. Any takers?

I've added another limitation on Entropy's power. If you still think it's OP I'm happy to tweak more.

For clarification, he can only affect materials within the field around him, so only a few centimeters. It'll cause nasty damage if contact is limited and prolonged, but probably wouldn't be fatal.
