Okay, now it's just missing optional stuff.Some of it.

Postby Skarten » Mon Jun 25, 2018 2:11 pm

Villain APP:
Name/Alias:Philipp Von Eleur/The Historian
Age:26
Gender:Male
Appearance:
Image


Personality:Philipp is,under normal circumstances, quite calm. But, once in stress due to his,"Mental Complications", he can get quite angry.
Faction:
Affiliation:N.A
Race:Human.
Backstory:
Philipp was born the son of a relatively wealthy family of Gotham.Of course, he had the luxury to study in his home and access to books from around the world, which he took great interest in.Particularly, he came to take a liking for History.The kingdoms, the empires, the mighty dictators and presidents, tales of brave warriors and much more.It fascinated him.
Homewever, one should remember to mention that Philipp was not the most mentally stable person.And so, as he grew, his love for books (And history) grew together with him, becoming an major addiction, as one could say.
And so, once Philipp's parents died, leaving for him a privilleged economical position, his state only got worse.He would spend, many times, more than he would earn in a month simply to quell his thirst for knowledge and history. He travelled along the world, buying ancient items and more books than one could possibly read in their life.
One would not be surprised to learn that, not a lot of time later, the position of Philipp economically began to degrade.It was simply not enough for him-he had to find a way to gain more money, or he would go bankrupt.
It was then that he decided to turn to the life of crime, using his vast arsennal of Historical items and weapons to perform his various illegal activities, quickly earning the name of "The Historian" by his "Work colleagues" and subordinates.
Powers/Weapons/Tech:Other than what would be expected from a high-end criminal, Philipp posseses an vast array of historical items.From Egyptian Khopesh swords to Mongolian Composite bows, he has everything.
Weaknesses:Other than not being very mentally stable, Philipp is not very strong in general.

Skills:Great Intellect, Endurance,etc.Philipp has also studied the art of war, becoming a exalted warrior in a large amount of warfare, thus allowing him to use his arsenal of Historical weapons with great skill.Due to his birth, he has also learned to become a skilled businessman.
RP Examples:Well while i'm a Brazilian and don't really have the perfect grammar, i'd say i'm relatively a experienced member of NS, but i'll give some links.
viewtopic.php?f=31&t=433712&hilit=New
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=402708&hilit=Arengin&start=6575

Well here's 2 paragraphs on Philipp.

Philipp looked outside the windows of his manor Water poured down from the sky, It had been raining for quite a time, which was an great excuse for him to stay inside without being bothered by others. Of course, he'd spend this time studying and reading about his most beloved subject, History.
Oh, History. The past, full of glory and tales of Warriors and Merchants, Peasants and kings. Man who would do great feats, conquer thousands of kilometers or territory for their countries, revolution the scientific world and so much more. But enough of imagination-He had acquired a great new book on the Indian Ocean Trade in the 15th century, and he was eager to read it.
"

Extra Information
Day Job: A High-End Businessman
Living place: An Old Mannor in the southern extreme end of Bristol County.
Voice Actor: [Deciding]
Likes/Dislikes:Philipp likes History, Books, Chess,Classical Music, mostly what you'd expect from someone who lived in the late 19th century. He knows that.
Theme Song:Deciding,Also.
Did you read the rules?wait there are rules

Lol, I wasn't expecting the Penguins. :lol:

Also, by "Ubu has the box sewed into his robes", is he wearing like a bathrobe or something as like a coat, or is it sewed into his actual shirt?

First, if memory serves, I said he had it hidden, not sewn. :p Then again, the way my memory's been acting lately, who knows! :lol:

And nooo...not a bathrobe. Like, you know, desert robes. I very well can't say he stuffed them down his Sinbad pants, now can I? :lol:

Okay, so like some Lawrence of Arabia robes. I ask because all the pictures I could find of Ubu were him in a tank top and cargo shorts, so I couldn't really picture him in robes.

Thought I'd do a little throwback to one of the old movies.
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.

Hey Skarten! Bem vindo ao grupo! I hope I'm saying that right, I used Google translator. :p

And yeah, no problem that English is your second language. Your app has some spelling and grammatical issues but don't worry, that's not an issue whatsoever. Two things though...

First, I need more information about what his "mental condition" is exactly and how that affects him and makes him angry.

Second, I linked on the rp sample you gave me put couldn't find your entries. So, instead I would like you to write two paragraphs in the character of Philipp instead. Let me see how you rp him. :)

That's it. Do those two things for me and we're good. And oh, your appearance link needs a colon there but I was able to take a look at the deviantart picture and it looks fine. And I like your second choice for your theme music. :)

I'm thinking more along these lines https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel_dc/images/2/21/Ubu_ButRH_001.png/revision/latest?cb=20111223134339 Those are robes, right? Actually, I like that better. That's what he's wearing! Everyone got it! :lol:

Thanks, and yes, it's right.
About the mental condition thing,i'll go and add a description but i honestly didn't find a very matching specifical disease, so i just guess he's some sort of sociopath + Something else sprinkled in? Anyway, i'm finding how to describe it.

Well, at least I got something right. :p

And for the medical condition, i don't need the exact clinical type, I just need more details. For instance, does he have an obsession with history to the point that he's delusional and wishes he was actually living in the past? And when he sees the modern world around him, it makes him disgusted and angry?

Yeah, sure. Are ya gonna hook up with Tim? I think he wanted to do the whole mentor thing. And yeah, according to Bycrest, I'm making things too easy for the Riddler so maybe you can complicate them a little. :p Take that, Bycrest! :p

I would say it is more of a ripped Casey Jones. :p

But I do like the robe picture you decided to give him, but not really too many places to hide something...so I guess that I can spot it pretty easily then. :twisted:

C'mon, you are like halfway across town, and we already have two villains, a hero, 50 shadow ninjas, Ubu, and a mob of drunks, on top of exploding Penguins.

Well, not that much, or else he would have probably shipped himself off to central asia to live as a nomad.
It's just,uh, He likes history a lot, but he can be considered MOSTLY sane on that matter. But he is pretty much a sociopath, and that's part of the reason why he's dwelving into crime.
Honestly, maybe i could go into an path where he goes deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole of madness.

Only if you want. I mean, you don't need to make his madness your entire focus, I just need a little more details about it, that's all. :)

Hey Skarten. Once your character is sorted out do you want to jump straight into a museum heist.
