NPC APPLICATION
VITALS
Name: Vittoria "Vitty" Gatti
Nickname/Alias: Azrael
Appearance:
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Ability/Abilities: Self Biokenesis. Vitty has control over her own cells and can alter them to modify her body. This has allowed her to give herself several physical enhancements, over time. A double heart that allows her body to pump more blood and handle more stress. Reinforced and wider lungs also play into this, and her bones are more flexible to reduce the chances of breakage and to make her overall body more flexible. She can attempt to use this ability for healing purposes, too, but she hasn't learned this part of her skillset fully and is still inexperienced in using it. Also, it takes a bit of time for her to alter herself, and she can't do other things while in this process. It isn't instant.
Equipment: She carries a P9 pistol and also wears an advanced flight suit while piloting, to monitor her vitals.
DETAILS
Faction: Syndicate
Nationality: American-Italian
Skills: No having powers that present a large advantage to herself in combat, she's become skilled in gunplay. She also has a lot of piloting skill, from being involved in the earliest days of the Challenger program. In fact, because of her ability, she's the only one that can survive piloting a Challenger combat unit without the required implant.
Short Bio: The sole daughter of celebrity Italian hero and Council of Ten member Stefano Gatti, better known as Angelo, Vitty inherited his ability to a lesser extent and from a young age has been able to alter her body. Growing up wealthy because of her father's involvement in the upper ranks of the Syndicate, and his celebrity status, Vitty has become somewhat vain and, to an extent, self centered. It especially boosted her ego when she was brought into an experimental Syndicate program, against her father's better judgement. It was hard for her to keep quiet about it, but she made sure to tell all of her friends that she was involved in a classified project, and she aided in the development of the first Challenger prototype.
Despite her being, well, vain and hedonistic, she proved to be quite the good pilot because the act of piloting doesn't push her body in the same way that it pushes normal humans. She did good enough to become the senior member of the piloting team when the prototype reached a stage where it could be deployed, and she was also assigned to act as the handler for the other pilot, the one who is considerably harder to control and more prone to causing a disaster for the Syndicate. How wise it was to partner up Nike with a self centered rich girl who doesn't have the best people skills will remain to be seen.

Well, I try to stay away from having people making villains as their main characters because you generally won't get the same kind of interaction with the thread that you would get from playing a regular character, and it can be an extreme pain trying to accommodate players like this. But it's not 100% impossible.Shadowwell wrote:Forest, i hate you, really.

Then the accident happened.
Car accident, to be precise. When she got out of the hospital, she was paralyzed below the waist for life. She and her parents were devastated, her grades dropped, she felt useless. Or was she? She set upon developing a way for her to walk again, making a series of gradually improved sets of "Braces", the final product having an armored vest that acted as a power source and could connect multiple other things to it, and moved to Berlin in order to continue her work in a warehouse she rented. From there she developed the first set of armor, the Flammenwerfer, as a weapon of war. She also started a small company of Prostetics/leg braces, further funding her research. When a Cryokinetic meta attacked, it was time to field test Flammenwerfer. Heading towards the showdown between the Cryo and the Police, Flammenwerfer proved to be a godsend in the ensuing fight as it was able to melt away the Ice that was thrown up. When the battle was won and over, Anita sped off when no one was looking, determined to develop and improve her suits. Fast forward a few years and she had a large operation radius, along with several suits and a drone. When the Syndicate finally found her, she accepted the invite to join the organization as a Cadet.

FACTION APPLICATION
Name: The Arcadian Restoration
Membership: 99 non-artificial life members (mainly magic users, some normal humans with political power and/or a lot of money, and even fewer metahumans), 90 artificial life form (Homunculi and golems) members. They also have many chimera, but since they are just mindless animals, they don't keep a record.
Areas of Operation: Their members are spread out across the world, with its "headquarters" nestled in the Swiss Alps, in the private estate of Metempsychosis
Alignment: Villains
Description of Faction Strength Level: The Arcadian Restoration is not the sort of faction that will be winning a fight with the Syndicate any time soon, due to their size. But don't let their size fool you, they are not weak, as they have many powerful members. But their greatest strength is in their secrecy. Many members do not know the identies of other members, unless they have been instructed to work along other members, but even then the Restoration prides itself in keeping members from being able to point authorities to other members. In fact, there are only a select few members, the most powerful and loyal members, of the Restoration that know the identy of all members, including the Arcadian Restorations leader, Metempsychosis. Some memebers of the Restoration bring their own political power and financial power to the organization. On occassion, the Arcadian Restoration will sell magic items created by certain members of the organization and/or the services of their artificial life form members on the black market.
Background: See Metempsychosis' bio

NPC APPLICATION
VITALS
Name: Born Luana Gérin-Lajoie, currently goes by Doctor Bea Leu
Nickname/Alias: Metempsychosis
Appearance:
Gender: Female
Age: 126
Ability/Abilities:
The Ritual of Metempsychosis - Her secret to longevity and her name sake, this powerful magic ritual, when preformed right, allows for Metempsychosis's soul to be transferred from one body to that of another living being. Technically the body does not need to be that of a human, as long as its the body of a living thing. The ritual requires quite a bit of prep work including the construction of a large magic circle drawn in blood, requires time to preform, and requires the assistance of four other magic users (one for each of the cardinal directions plus her in the centre), as such it can not be preform on the battle field. She can also preform this ritual on another person. If the soul that is being transferred does not bind to the body its being transferred to properly, then the body will experience accelerated aging, but still be usable.
Art de la Vie - The creation of life through magic, an extremely difficult and extremely complex form of magic that takes years to master. And it just so happens that Metempsychosis is a master at it, after all she's had over a hundred years to master it. Through her Art de la Vie, Metempsychosis is capable of creating artificial life forms such as golems and the more complex Homunculi. To create any form of artificial life through magic, a few things are required.
First, ingredients are required, golems are simple enough as almost anything can be used to make them. Artificial animal life created through magic are often referred to as chimera (with a lowercase c), and require the use of deceased animal bodies. To make a Homunculi, the same ingredients present in the human body are required.
Second, the proper facilities are required. Golems due to their simplicity can be created anywhere, as long as the Art de la Vie magic circle is drawn around the ingredients. Homunculi and chimera require more sophisticated facilities, as the bodies must mature after creation in specific conditions, along with the use of the same magic circle.
And finally, time is required. While golems can be created in a matter of minutes, chimera can take just as long as golems to create, but require at least 24 hours to mature. Homunculi face the same situation, where the creation of the being takes a few minutes, but the body and being must mature, with Homunculi taking at least three days to mature.
It should also be mentioned that artificial life forms do not last as long as non-artificial life forms. Golems can live for a few days at most, chimera can live for a few months to a few years depending on their creation. Homunculi can survive up to 40 years, compared to the average human life expectancy of 79 years.
Golems are extremely strong physically, chimeras possess slightly greater capabilities than the animals they are based off of. Homunculi though are special. While they can be created to possess slighter greater physical conditions then regular humans, they can also be infused with extra magic, granting them the ability to use magic.
Summon Mantelet Arcadien - The Mantelet Arcadien is what Metempsychosis calls her robes and mask that she wears. Of course she doesn't carry it in a bag where ever she goes, or stores it in her home. Instead she possess the ability to summon the Mantelet Arcadien at will. She doesn't just summon it on the ground or in her hands, no, she summons it on to her, replacing her daily clothes.
Summon Lance d'Arcadie - Metempsychosis is capable of summoning the magic Lance d'Arcadie.
Vue de L'âme - Metempsychosis is capable of seeing ones very soul. In doing so, she can determine what sort of person someone is, and even what they are capable of. Of course, this does require some concentration
Sens de L'âme - Metempsychosis is capable of sensing the presence of living beings through their souls in an area of 100 metres around her.
Rêver Marcheur - Using her magic, Metempsychosis is capable of entering the dreams of her allies and enemies. She can only enter the dreams of one person at a time, and to do so requires intense concentration, the entering of a meditative state, and either a personal connection to the target, or an item that was once in their possession. As such, she can enter the dreams of any member of the Restoration
Brumeux Images - Metempsychosis is capable of using magic, to project her image via harmless illusions across great distances. These Misty Images are incapable of interacting with the physical world, but still provide Metempsychosis with information such as what the Brumeux Images saw, or heard. Of course, while they look like she is actually there, after being hit once, the Brumeux Images take on a more misty appearance. Each hit then causes the image to appear more misty, until the image finally dissipates. Brumeux Images requires concentration and the entering of a meditative state
Brumes d'Hypnos - Metempsychosis is capable of summoning the Brumes d'Hypnos, a purple mist that slowly causes those who breath it in to loss consciousness. It takes time for the mist to do its work, and that time varies from person to person. If someone is tired and they start to breath in the mist, then they will likely not last long before falling unconscious.
Bouclier Psychique - Metempsychosis' mind is protected from telepaths and those who would try and control her mind. This is done with her magic, and is a passive effect, and as such is not perfect.
Sainte Barrière d'Arcadie - A powerful defensive spell, the Sainte Barrière d'Arcadie, is capable of blocking nearly all magic attacks, and attacks from magic beings such as demons. The Barrier can not bend, so it can only be cast as a straight barrier.
Vents Violets d'Arcadie - Metempsychosis is capable of generating and manipulating the Vents Violets d'Arcadie. These winds can be used for ranged attacks, enhancing her physical capabilities, and even flight.
Equipment: Other than her wealth, she keeps her trusty Walther P38 (that she may or may not have stolen back in WWII) on her at all times, along with other things you'd expect a person to carry on them day to day. She also is able to summon two things, two things tied to her identity as Metempsychosis, the Mantelet Arcadien and the Lance d'Arcadie. The Mantelet Arcadien enhances her physical capabilities, and magic power, along with increasing her resistance to magic and physical attacks. It does not however make her invulnerable to either. Finally, there is the Lance d'Arcadie, a powerful magic spear. The spear radiates magic energy, and as such is incredibly effective on magic beings. The spear also increases her magic ability via allowing her to focus her magic much more precisely.
DETAILS
Faction: The Arcadian Restoration
Nationality: French-Swiss
Skills: Due to her high standards for the bodies she takes over, Metempsychosis only takes bodies that are above average fitness, as such she possess a beyond average physical condition. She is also possess above average intelligence, and knowledge from all her years alive. She is skilled in hand to hand, along with being skilled with firearms and polearms such as spears. Due to years of study, she is also fluent in French, German, Italian, Spanish, Latin, Greek, Arabic, Russian, English, Mandarin Chinese and Japanese. She also has a vast medical knowledge.
Short Bio: Metempsychosis, the supposed transmigration of a soul, be it human or animal, into the body of another living thing at the time of death, a philosophical concept with its roots in the roots of Western culture, the ancient Greeks. But the person who would take that concept and mold it into her own identity would not come along until 1892, when in a small French town, near the French-German boarder, Luana Gérin-Lajoie was born. She was raised in a catholic family, raised to love all life and to love the world. So, when she was old enough, she left home and studied to become a nurse. When she finally did become one, it was 1914, and the First World War ignited.
So, she did what she considered necessary, and helped treat the wounded of the war. She saw many horrors, but couldn't do anything but try to ease their pain and help prevent more deaths than necessary. It was during this time of conflict that Luana would discover something she never knew about herself. She could summon forth and command magic. How she learned she could use magic, was by complete coincident, as she summoned forth what she would eventually call the "Sainte Barrière d'Arcadie". It was only after the war that she bothered to look into her new found abilities. So, when ever she had time to herself, she was either practicing her abilities in secret, or finding herself lost in books about the occult.
Around 1926, she would discover that she was dying, due to an improperly treated wound she suffered at one of the many field hospitals she served at as a nurse during the war. There was no way she would survive with medical procedures at the time. Like any human, she did not want to die. So, she searched for a way to prevent her death, in doing so she meet five other magic users, who would become her close friends. With those five, Luana discovered a way to prevent her death, though she didn't know that it would involve the death of an innocent.
In fact, it was one of those five, one who she fell in love with who tricked her into learning and preforming the Ritual of Metempsychosis. Upon learning what she did by preforming the ritual, she was furrious, and discovered something else about her, she was willing to kill without a second thought. The other four did not even seemed fazed by her actions, and went their separate ways.
Then the Second World War came along, and Luana, now going by Amanda Mace, found herself a member of the French Resistance before long. Where she spent the war, not only helping those she could with her medical knowledge, while also taking the fight to Nazi every so often. Eventually, the Germans were pushed out of France, and Luana was ready to return to her old life... but then she heard news of the atomic bombs.
After witness the carnage of two world wars, and the destruction of the atomic bomb, Luana was faced with a question, was it really worth loving humanity, and was it worth trying to protect it? It was at then she remembered back to the myths of paradise, myths involving fantastical elements, and she came to the conclusion, that the current state of the world was not natural, it was almost like something was missing.
That something, she determined to be the fantastical elements that existed in myth. At this point in time, she was aware of the Realm of Myth, was obsessed with the occult and mythology of old. So, she concluded that at some point, the Realm of Myth was separated from the normal world, and that by recombining them, perhaps the world would become worth protecting once again, as humans would no longer have the luxuary of fighting amongst each other, as if they did, they would likely find death sooner rather than later. By combining the normal world and the Realm of Myth, perhaps a paradise could be born, Arcadia could be restored.
So, she contacted her old friends from when she first preformed the Ritual of Metempsychosis, and arranged to meet with them all, and discuss this conclusion with them. After some arguing, she convinced them all to see it like her. Together, the five of them formed the Arcadian Restoration, and began searching for a way to restore the Arcadia as they saw it, even if in order to do so, they needed to sacrifice many innocent lives.
And so, the five of them started down their path. When their bodies started to get too old, the Ritual of Metempsychosis was preformed, allowing them to change to younger bodies, usually obtained by kidnapping. As time past, more people were invited to join the Arcadian Restoration, with a promises of a place among the citizens of Arcadia when it was restored. Of course, sometimes people turned down the offer, and would later be found dead.
Around 1987, Luana arranged the kidnapping of a child, as she wanted to make sure her next body would be up to a fairly high standard. While she could have technically created a homunculi to take over, but it was far simplier to use the body of another natural born human. So, the child was raised, and trained to what Luana desired, so when the time came, she could take the body she desired. And she took that body in 2004.
Now, Luana goes by Doctor Bea Leu, a well renowned physician for the wealthy and powerful, whose patients include members of the Arcadian Restoration (who have no idea that Doctor Bea Leu is their leader), possible future members, and non-members. When she isn't Doctor Bea Leu, she is Metempsychosis, and can be found in the unofficial headquarters of the Arcadian Restoration, researching possible ways to achieve their dream, creating new homunculi, going over business deals, and the sort of stuff you expect of the leader of an organization like the Arcadian Restoration.

PLAYER CHARACTER APPLICATION
VITALS
Name: Lyndi Patrick
Nickname/Alias: Ink
Appearance:
Gender: female
Age: 21
Build: 5 ft 5 inches, 140 lbs, Thin build, physically similar to a professional acrobat
Primary Ability: Seal Marks- Able to create and utilize seal marks that can be used to place objects into or cause reactions from their activation. The actual ability is from her blood, not the marks themselves, however she creates the marks with her blood, which also gives her sole access to it. The designs used are actually just used by her to focus on the specific use of that mark. For examples of her mark's uses she can place items inside some, while also able to use them to release chemicals into her body to essentially boost her natural human physical abilities, though only within human parameters.
Other Abilities: Extreme Athleticism- Through rigorous training and years of development Lyndi has developed an extremely acrobatic and flexible body.
Superb background in Martial Arts- With a primary focus on Hwa Rang Do being a master of it specifically she has learned at least part of multiple styles from all around the world, however she primarily focuses on those based on kicks, grapples, and flexibility.
Power Drawbacks: She must use blood not only to create the marks, but also to activate them, which can have obvious negative effects if overused, it also takes a good amount of focus and time to create the marks and properly prepare them, and the ability is useless without being able to touch the mark with blood. The ability is also largely that of an average, albeit supremely trained and disciplined physically wise, human being, while some of her tattoos allow her to boost her adrenaline, pain tolerance, speed, or awareness, they cannot boost her abilities to impossible levels only augmenting her natural capabilities.
Equipment: Large amounts of knives, medical kits, and other supplies placed inside the marks, several leaflets covered in marks for easy access to these items.
