Once Upon a Summer (OOC) Superpowers/Open

[Talchyon]

Hey there's been a mistake in the IC thread.

Ribe General Store
Freddy Allen (townie)

-snip-

So, that's what Freddy did. He pushed the emergency button beneath the counter that did nothing in the store itself, but sent an alarm to city hall so the police station could come.

Meanwhile, he ignored the girl. What a day.

Szarlota Raczkowska
Ribe General Store

While ignoring the pleas of Freddy, the Outsiders proceed to gather whatever materials and tools that could help them achieve their goals in the wreckage. Screws, paint, batteries, pliers, whatnot have been selected as items for purchase. Before they could wipe out their wallets, the Outsiders found themselves hearing an awfully loud siren.

-snip-

Union, could you please fix this before that encounter goes on?

I understood this as that the loud siren was coming from outside, when the police cars drove up.

I understood this as that the loud siren was coming from outside, when the police cars drove up.

That would make sense if the other lines were not present.

Szarlota Raczkowska
Ribe General Store

-snip-

The gang leader let go of Freddy before he and his buddies fled the messy store and scrammed into the hot rod parked outside. With the sound of screeching tires, the vehicle was gone in a heartbeat before the police arrived. They left the store untidy and their would-be purchases lying on the floor.

Szarlota, meanwhile, remain hidden in the alley as she leaned against the brick wall to get a sneaky view of the store. She wouldn’t want to be there when the police arrive.

Huh, I must've misread that line

NS Name: Dyelli Beybi
Character Name: Jessica Bishop
Appearance: Jessica is a relatively tall girl at 5'7'', though at 120lb she is not particularly heavily built. Looks a bit like this:

Age: 17
Clique: Townies
Powers, Group and Magnitude: Telekinesis, Psionics, Mag 1 - can throw a small object like a ball or a can across a room or deflect one in motion.
Bio: David Bishop was one of Ribe's more successful sons; a man of vision and aspiration who left Ribe as a teenager to make his fortune in San Francisco in the 1970s. Enthusiastic for technology and business, David amassed a considerable amount of money, though he never found time for a family, or serious relationship until well into his late 40s when he married a Latvian model, Anna bishop, 25 years his junior. Jessica is their sole daughter, though her relationship with her parents is, and always has been somewhat distant, with her mother often seeing her as something of a impediment to her social life and her father never having particularly wanted a child to begin with.

While born in San Francisco, Jessica's main memories of life are of Ribe; having moved there at four when her father decided to retire (at 55) back to his old home town, where he bought a large property with a sea view.

From Jessica's perspective, navigating the intricacies of childhood and teenage life have been complicated. In many respects she isn't a 'proper' townie. She doesn't work (although she would like to, to help her fit in a bit better) and her parents have obvious disposable income. Conversely though, though her limited knowledge of the world outside of Ribe makes her seem gauche and uncivilised compared to the Vacays who visit during the nicer seasons of the year. While Jessica is an above average student, she tends to be more interested in improving her social standing that her studies and is often distracted by the teenage dramas of her peers. Where she does excel is in athletic pursuits, particularly soccer, where she is fiercely competitive and prone to playing dirty.

When not engaged in sports, Jessica is generally friendly and easy going and has managed to make friends with many of the more popular kids at Ribe's High School; however, she often lacks patience with people she sees as 'weird' and has a vast repertoire of creative insults she slings around, making her somewhat unpopular with the Outsiders. She is also something of a rule breaker, particularly if the rule is something her father thinks is a good idea, and can be found at all the furtive teenage parties where she has acquired a well-founded reputation for being able to procure alcohol (usually stolen from her father's cellar).

[Segral]

NS Name: Segral

Character Name: Charles "Chuck" Moore

Appearance: Chuck is a Caucasian male that stands at about 5'10 and 140 pounds. His build is a little skinny, but certainly not thin or underweight. He's a ginger, with his hair forming something of a burnt orange hue. His hair is very thick, short, and a little bit spiky, forming a bald/skin fade, and he has a thin beard as well. When it comes to his face, he has cornflower blue eyes, an average-sized nose, and very thin lips. His whole face is pretty thin and lean. Now that he's actually started eating again, he has a fair bit of muscle, mostly grouped around his forearms and thighs. He has a fairly broad frame, with wide-set shoulders and a fairly stocky torso, but with little fat or muscle buffing him up, leaving him pretty slim. When it comes to markings, he has a couple of scars on his chest from fistfights, as well as one underneath his left temple from a fall off his bike, and a tattoo of a python on his right bicep. Overall, not the worst looking guy around, maybe a 7 out of 10, but certainly in need of some nutrition.

Age: 20
Clique: Outsiders
Powers, Group and Magnitude: Calorie Fire. Basically, he can take the calories in his body from food consumption and use the energy to create and control fire. However, it's not too powerful. Currently, the fire is mostly restricted to his palms and isn't very hot. It's usually used for practical applications, such as lighting a cigarette or burning some dry kindling to start a campfire or bonfire. He has little to no control over actually shaping the fire. As well, he needs to eat a significant amount of calories in order to produce this, which means he can't summon fire if he's hungry or hasn't eaten in a while. Freakish, Mag 1.

Bio: Chuck Moore was born to an Irish mother and American father in Ribe, Maine, and has lived here all his life. His parents had met when Chuck's mother had come to the village for some hiking on vacation, and it was love at first sight. She had just finished a degree in business in Ireland, while his dad served in the military and was honorably discharged. They soon became married, had Chuck and his younger sister Catherine, and started their own salon on the main street of Ribe. The business was sometimes slow, but Chuck's dad earned a pretty sizable veteran's pension, which certainly helped. It was your average life; go to school, finish your chores, and spend the rest of your time goofing off in the village. Chuck was never particularly bright at school and was pretty average, but he had a great knack for working with his hands and wanted to own his own trade business, carpentry or cabinetmaking or something like that.

However, tragedy eventually struck for the Moore family. When Chuck was 16, his parents got into a serious collision on a highway, where they hit a moose on the road. The accident was serious, killing his father and leaving his mother paralyzed and unable to talk or eat solid food due to her jaw being crushed. Chuck and Catherine were placed in foster care, his mother was placed in a care home, the business was liquidated, and that was that.

Chuck was devastated but knew he had to dig his way out of his hole. He dropped out of high school soon after and worked as a short-order cook to save up some money and get his own place, a second floor that he rented out from a friend. Once he turned eighteen, he was able to sponsor and adopt his sister and his mother, bringing their family together and allowing the siblings to take care of their mother. However, things weren't looking up. Chuck was working full-time and his sister part-time, but they still had to scrape together money for rent, utilities, food, and medical bills. They had no more business or pension to cover them. It was a lucky month when they had enough money for power, cable and telephone was a memory. Plus, his sister would be going to college soon, and she needed money. Cooking wouldn't pay the bills. So he turned to something slightly more illegal; drug dealing. It was the perfect opportunity. With tons of Vaycay kids coming to Ribe for partying and relaxing, dealing would be lucrative. And that led to Chuck's involvement in a more unsavory group; the Outsiders.

Scraping together some cash with his fellow Outsider and best friend Joe, he managed to get a solid dealing business going, selling to the local high school and to the common stomping grounds of wealthy teenagers. Joe handled all the raw materials and manufacturing, Chuck handled the sales. They sold soft stuff like cigarettes and pot to the younger kids, and harder stuff like ecstasy, LSD, and crack to the older ones. It wasn't a savory job by any means, but it was all he had. Even after splitting the money in half, Chuck still had enough money to cover all the bills and necessities, plus disposable income for savings.

However, things have changed recently. One day, Chuck woke up, made himself the most sizable breakfast he had eaten in a while, and in mere seconds, his hands were on fire. After some...experimentation, he found that the more he ate, the more fire he could make. He's kept the power to himself, only using it to light a blunt or two with greater ease, but soon, he may find his powers coming in handy

Looks good. ACCEPTED

-Snip-

The Bio looks good Seg, but that powers would be Freakish not Elemental. Elemental powers are straight control over some natural matter/energy. I'll also need you to elaborate on how powerful it is so we don't have issues with it being too strong for the moment.

I'll have a post up later tonight hopefully.

[Segral]

Edited my application. Clarified some limitations on the fire abilities.

It's mostly good, however I'm going to ask that any fire he controls is limited to his hands.

[Talchyon]

If that's ok, OP, I'll include the police officer's reaction to the gang in my next post, unless you want to handle it.

I was just doing that.

[Theiagh]

Tag. One question would powers like the ones in Anime like One piece be allowed? If not what are some suggestions for an app?

[Segral]

Edited again to remove the part about applications of the fire. It's now restricted to just his palms.

Depends on the power. The general answer is yes, but it can't be something that would remove other player's agency, ie Mind Control, Time Dialation etc. In addition it has to abide by the magnitude system, so Luffy's rubber powers, for example, would be limited to say extreme flexibility at first.

ACCEPTED

I'm interested to see how he and Logan interact.

[Theiagh]

I was thinking in using Luffys power of the gomu gomu fruit, just like the series he can do the stretching and the sorts like Gomu pistol or Gomu Balloon and as he progresses he becomes stronger eventually using his more powerful moves like haki but that will be later on. And would that be categorized as?

Well, like I said as long as you follow the Magnitudes, it should be fine. And that would be either a classic or a freak power, whichever you feel is more accurate.

[Theiagh]

Awesome!! I’ll have an app in hopefully by tomorrow. I’ll have to figure out how he gets this power w/o the devil fruit. How could I make this happen since it won’t be in the One Piece Universe any Suggestions? I was thinking as a baby he loved eating rubber which somehow didn’t affect him and he slowly became a rubber man.

Same as everyone else, he woke up with his powers sometime in the past week or two.

RP Sample: (Doesn't have to be anything complicated, just write or link a paragraph or two here if I haven't been in an RP with you.)

Phobo
Phobo could clearly see that his powers of Panic, along with Fear weren’t going to exactly affect Hyztlet. His aiding of Pyrros wasn’t exactly taken well with the fore mentioned god. Which left him confused. They had been teaming up just to win this battle. A bright light showed up leaving him blinded. Freja he thought, Damn that blasted Goddess can be annoying sometimes. When the light vanished, The huge serpent a long with Freja were gone.What the.. WHAT JUST HAPPENED!! He decided to join Dhemtar he felt that he was going to address everyone now that the enemy was gone.

I have a few problems with this app. First off, I gave a specific example of what Luffy-esque power would be at Mag 1, specifically pure flexibility. Secondly, you'd need to give a good reason for why a japanese couple would immigrate to Maine. Him being Japanese is fine, but theres no reason for post war Japanese to immigrate to the middle of maine. A more logical explanation would be that his father was stationed on the base itself. Thirdly, you need to clear up the origin part of the story a bit. As I said, everyone woke up one day with their powers, no accident gave them to to the kids or activated the powers. Thirdly, I need a better writing example, either one you've already done or a new one for the RP. The one you have provided gives me no confidence in the continued consistency and integrity of the character.
