[Rupudska]

Application

Name: "Savannah van Rynveld."

Alias: Keizer

Appearance: "Here for my face, here for my costume."

Age: "I am twenty-three years old."

Personality: Stern. Dependable. Slow to trust. A little too serious for the taste of many.

Powers: "Knowledge absorption - One touch is all I need to pull memories, knowledge, skills, and experience from the mind of another. It also works with electronic devices and books, though I have to physically examine data in question - speed doesn't matter as long as I do so. I also have my power armor - supersonic flight, superhuman strength, superhuman speed. I own several suits for varying situations, each with their own AI and, to my chagrin, personality."

Drawbacks: "Well the obvious one is that I have to come into physical contact with the person I'm taking knowledge from, or examine the data in question. For some forms of media it's little more than being able to learn things instantly. And I've yet to find a satisfying means of defending the suit against EMP attacks, though I've reached a point where if something can cause an EMP powerful enough to damage the suit I will have other problems.."

Origin of Powers: "Experimental. I intern - well, interned - at a pharmaceutical lab in Johannesburg."

Bio: Born to a rather unremarkable but well off white Afrikaans farmer family in northern South Africa. A curious if serious child, took to chemistry studies like a fish and eventually graduated cum laude at the University of Cape Town on a chemical engineering degree, soon began work via internship for Vulcan laboratories, largest chemical company in Africa by a significant margin.

Her powers developed after exposure to a chemical designed to increase mental function in individuals with learning or other mental disabilities - while intelligent Savannah's IQ was not abnormally high and she was chosen as a 'control' to be tested prior to 'real' testing on those with such disabilities. It worked beyond expectations, granting her her current powers, but only after several weeks of debilitating pain, after which Vulcan scrapped the project entirely for fear of a lawsuit which never came.

Savannah did not initially intend to go into vigilantism - the first real step came from helping another South African vigilante, Springbok (who was ironically of Zulu descent) detain a roboticist who had attempted a terrorist attack on Mozambique and Zimbabwe in hopes of triggering war between the three countries. By accident she managed to obtain much of his knowledge on building machines, from here she started work on her power armors. From there she began studying firearms training - watching training videos by the South African and Rhodesian militaries as well as several PMC and less-than-legal-organization training videos. Next came swordsmanship, followed by martial arts, which consisted of a more than insignificant number of Bruce Lee movies.

She debuted fairly recently and has worked with Springbok on numerous occasions, though while Springbok tends to focus on cities Keizer has so far shown a preference for working in the countryside, most notably in effectively stopping and reversing the rise in attacks on white farmers in South Africa. While some vigilantes - Springbok included - have made some sort of change to their actions, or even made announcements denouncing the attack, Keizer has done nothing of the sort. Indeed, the attack doesn't seem to have even slow her down. She is currently in Hawaii tracking down a possible connection between a criminal organization in Johannesburg to one in Mexico that seems to be using Hawaii as a major exchange point.

Starting Location: Honolulu, Hawaii

Age: 20

Personality: Withdrawn, Melancholy, Almost depressed-looking.

Bio: Drake Lawrence was born into a decent life, his parents both had well paying jobs, and his town had a low crime rate. At middle and high school, his teachers appreciated his quiet and calm personality. Sadly, his parents died in a house fire and he had to move to Seattle to live with his Aunt and Uncle. There he met a girl named Sammy Clara, and the two developed a strong friendship. When their powers awoke, they decided to team up to fight crime, adopting the Aliases Wraith and Archangel. However, this wouldn't last long. You see, he had... questionable methods of getting information. and Archangel planned an intervention that didn't exactly go as planned. Intervention turned to Argument, Argument turned to Fight, It escalated pretty quickly. within an hour and a half, Sammy was stomping out of the warehouse fuming, leaving Drake with a debris filled room and more than a few scraps of Armored plating and fabric strewn around. He made a promise to himself to hurt no other person unless the situation deems it absolutely necessary. He has since run away from Seattle and is currently residing in an apartment in Honolou.

Starting Location: Honolou

Application

Name: Sammy Clara.

Alias: Archangel

Appearance:Often wears a light-colored shirt and jeans, has blonde hair. As archangel she has since abandoned the sleek futuristic look of her old suit and looks like this(top left)

Age: 20

Personality: A bit withdrawn since the fight, but still outgoing and cheerful... What I'm not nervous Drake hasn't shown up for school the past week and there is a missing persons report for him and some men in black visited and questioned me about us no not at all

Powers: Radiokinesis, she can manipulate light into a suit of armor and melee equipment around her.

Drawbacks: Light levels determine strength of powers.

Origin of Powers: Mutant

Bio: Sammy was also born into a decent life, though she spent most of her childhood alone as her parents had long shifts. She was quickly recognized to have a talent for engineering and art, and she got multiple scholarship offers for engineering. She turned the down as they were all far away universities. When she first ran into Drake she quickly apologized and went on her way. But after the word spread that he was here because he lost family she went to him and attempted making friends with him, which was successful. The two formed a strong bond, and may have had a few akward moments. When their powers awoke, they teamed up to put a stop to crime... that didn't last long. Archangel had grown suspicious of what exactly Wraith was doing to get information, and had heard the news about impossible assaults on criminals. So she planned an intervention. She confronted him and demanded to know how exactly he got information, he remained silent. She asked again, he remained silent. She demanded to know how and he finally said something under his breath, from there it escalated into an argument, and then into a full blown fight. Eventually, the fight was broken up when Sammy's arm broke after being hurled into a wall, knocking her unconcious. when she came to, her arm was bandaged and Drake was sitting with his back to her, tending his own wounds. Fuming, she got up and left, at a loss for what had transpired.

The next day... Drake didn't show up to school.

Starting Location: Seattle

Additional info: Will post a prologue post on what transpired before shifting to the present.

[The Cyberiad Council]

Let's see if we can get about 3-4 more players with finished apps before we get started.

I'll be adding a few new characters as we go along, and feel free to do the same.

[Lavan Tiri]

This seems neat.

[The Cyberiad Council]

This seems neat.

I promise it can be.sometimes

[IOTA Corp]

tag

[IOTA Corp]

Cy, are you not bring Cypher back!?

[The Cyberiad Council]

Cy, are you not bring Cypher back!?

I think I'm going to try something new this time.

Are you bringing back the boys?

[IOTA Corp]

Yeah, I'm getting ready to write up Prophet at Corpus as we speak.

I have a slightly different idea for Vulgate, ill text you later and see if you like it.

[Segral]

As I drive back home in my jag
I check NS, to see what's the rag
And as I see this RP, for sure no pile of slag,
I deliver to all of you: a tag

[The Knockout Gun Gals]

We probably need a Main Arc, with maybe few Side Arcs to accompany the Main one.

[Republic of the Cristo]

tag

[Republic of the Cristo]

I am hesitant to join. These things usually burn out before they really get started.

[The Cyberiad Council]

Nah, we're getting started. We have a lot of great people involved in the first one joining.

[Republic of the Cristo]

Nah, we're getting started. We have a lot of great people involved in the first one joining.

I'll probably set up an app later

[Auphelia]

Trying to decide between someone who can manipulate sources of mass media (radio, internet, television, etc.) and calling her Miss Information (Get it?)

OR someone who has the ability to nullify the powers of those in her presence.

[Segral]

Power null seems a bit OP, GVH. Information gathering sounds cool.

GVH?

She wouldn't have powers herself, just something about her makes powers totally ineffective around her. Maybe some sort of unconscious energy vacuum.
