We Were Never Heroes (A Superhero RP) OOC / HIATUS

[Mondrova]

For sure guy! Why don't we talk this out. Just make an appointment and a small down payment and we'll have this sorted out likitysplit.

Well we are also known for being excellent agents. I see great talent in you. I am sure I could help you out... for a 10% cut

How about we go get a beer together then, we can hash out the details. Just don't drink too much, you might start forgetting things.

[The Olog-Hai]

He's not averse to pigeon bombing someone (yeahs, bei, I will indeed do it, just for you), but he draws the line at guns.

I can just imagine a chase through the park where a dozens upon dozens of pigeons happen to be roaming about. And then all the birds stop to look at the guy in some creepy horror movie fashion before the fun begins. It's gonna be great.

Think The Birds.
Alfred Hitchcock.
Haven't even seen it, but know the basic premise. It's perfect.

[The Olog-Hai]

NAME: Steven Fashingbauer
ALIAS: The Birdwatcher
NATIONALITY: American
ETHNICITY: German-American
AGE: 23
APPEARANCE: Tall and skinny. Dark hair and green eyes, with very pale skin. Usually goes around in a T-shirt and jeans. For his costume, he wears a cape and mask made out of bird feathers (feathers shed by the birds, only)

ALIGNMENT: Neutral Good.
OCCUPATION: Nothing really, right now. Learning how to fly a plane, does some odd jobs here and there. Has a decent sized inheritance that he's currently living off of.

ABILITIES: Bird Manipulation. Effectively, through concentration, he can control birds. The more complex the mind of the bird, and the bigger, the harder it is to control. It is easier for him to just implant more if a suggestion or a feeling in a bird's mind, though, and uses it to train his pet hawk.
Wind sense: He can kind of sense how the winds are going to blow. Useful while controlling birds and while flying a plane.
SKILLS: Falconry. Knows Aikido. Learning how to fly.
WEAKNESS: Gun fights, isn't that athletic, isn't too good at driving (prefers to bike)
GOALS: Keep everyone from eating bird eggs, get guns outlawed, protect endangered birds species.
FEARS: Claustrophobia (though for some odd reason, planes don't effect him)

EQUIPMENT: Falconry glove, a pet hawk named Eagle (Because fuck logic).

PERSONALITY: Kinda Quirky. Has an odd connection to animals, birds especially. You could think Radagast from the Hobbit Movies a bit, but not that weird (I mean come on, that's Sylvester McCoy. No one is THAT bad.) He hates guns especially, and is actually a vegan. More than a bit geeky.
LIKES: Birds, flying. Non-lethal force, or at least not use of guns.
DISLIKES: Meat, eggs (consumption of) Guns.

BIO:
I hate this bit. Can I get back to you?

RP EXAMPLE: Haha. Very funny. We've been in enough together to avoid trivialities such as this, no?

THEME: Thanks for the idea Bei

How's it look so far?

[Beiarusia]

...

Liking it.

[Wenglesy]

NAME: Jean Deschenaux

For comedic effect alone, ACCEPTED.. Just don't make anything too absurd.

I'm guessing my character's death is the exception non?

Non, non, a silly funeral? Non...

Non, non, non, non, non, non, non, non, non, non, non, non! Oui to le funeral.

Mods should not be flagging the RP because of gratuitous violence, swearing, or other topics.

But...zut!

[The Olog-Hai]

...

Liking it.

Don't worry, I'll work a pigeon bombardment either into the bio or into the RP itself at one point.
Yes, I stole the theme from the Birds. Deal.

[Tayner]

My character can help you overcome your hatred of guns for a small large fee.

Nope nope nope.
Gun are bad. My character will never overcome the hatred.

He's not averse to pigeon bombing someone (yeahs, bei, I will indeed do it, just for you), but he draws the line at guns.

*Hides .50 caliber pistol under tuxedo jacket*

My dude usually carries around his pistol, a S&W model 500, which basically is a .50 cal revolver. Why? Well, because why not? You never know when you'll need to kill an elephant in Seattle.

That moment when your guy can turn into animals.

My guy owns an M27 LAW, because you never know when you'll need to blow up an armored car or a stationary helicopter.

[The Greater Gambia]

So besides guns, do you guys have any actual powers?

[The Intergalactic Russian Empire]

So besides guns, do you guys have any actual powers?

Yeah, enhanced strength, speed, and senses. Nothing too exciting, but in the right hands they can be formidable.

My guy owns... err. A cross, because you never know when you need to pray for the speed - to run away.

[Rupudska]

How dare you not inform me of this.

[Deramen]

So besides guns, do you guys have any actual powers?

Im the summoner of the group.

Always good with the French Werewolf.

Or whatever he is, I don't want to actually call him a werewolf. I'd rather call him a wolf-like shapeshifter.

Now that's something. Thanks.

Finally finished my app. I'm dissapointed that the last Rp that I'd say is suitable for an App example is Halo:Eclipse.

NAME:Biruk
ALIAS: (OPTIONAL)
NATIONALITY:None
ETHNICITY: An early group native to what is now Ethiopia and the Horn of Africa. To his knowledge, Biruk is the last survivor of this group.
AGE:Unknown
APPEARANCE:Due to shapeshifting foolery, he appears as if he never aged out of his early 20's. 6'2, Dark skin, short curly hair. blue eyes. Body's in good shape Clothing.
ALIGNMENT: Chaotic Neutral
OCCUPATION:None except being an wanderer of the world. He usually just steals and hunts whatever he needs.

ABILITIES:Immortality, Shapeshifting, animal morphing, limited regeneration(Ex. If he loses an arm, he can regrow it in a few days. Gets shot in the head, however, he's dead.)
SKILLS: Knowledgeable in many marital arts from around the world. Due to his time travelling, he also knows a wide variety of languages, from the modern versions of English and French to ancient dead languages like Sumerian and Indus Script
WEAKNESS:While Beruk is immortal, he is not indestructible. While he can morph into an animal that can sustain more punishment to a human, all things can still be killed. His regeneration has its limits, as well. While it can heal most injuries, if he loses too much blood, too fast or its a critical area, he'll die just the same as anyone else in that situation. He also has to be conscious to regenerate as well. If he is knocked unconscious while injured, his survival will depend on the medical expertise of those around him.
GOALS: Money means nothing to him and he's seen what happens to those that cling to power. He's enjoyed his many years of walking the Earth, and he plans to live for a few thousand more. His only goal is escaping death.
FEARS: Death

BIO: Biruk's was born during the infancy of the Human Race. He was raised in one of the first modern human Hunter-Gatherer bands that roamed the Horn of Africa. Biruk's powers were discovered early on in his childhood, making him an almost Godlike figure in his group and in neighboring groups. However, these groups wouldn't last, as one by one, the groups migrated elsewhere or simply died out. A drought finished off the few that remained, starving out Biruk's group, leaving him the sole survivor of his people.

Ever since then, Biruk has travelled the world, either transforming into an animal few paid attention to, or changing his appearance to match with the locals, becoming apart of the community, sometimes starting a family, and "dying" before moving on to the next location. Biruk has witnessed many highlighted points of human history, but for the most part has stayed out of them, seeing them as useless endeavors whose consequences will be undone within a generation. Throughout the years, though, he takes an active point in events, but not out of some common goal or a true belief in the cause du jour, but simply out of boredom. He's been all over the world, from one of Xerxes Generals during the battle of Thermopylae, an Imam during the Crusades, an advisor in Mansa Musa's Court in the Mali Empire, and aiding Simón_Bolívar in his fight for the independence of many South American Countries from Spain.

Currently, Biruk is in Seattle, in a country he hasn't seen in a hundred years. While the changes would shock anyone else, Biruk has seen even grander changes before, visiting Rome in its infancy, coming back again as it controlled the Mediterranean, and hundreds of years later as it fell. He's not there for any cause. Just continuing his journey throughout the world.

[Reverend Norv]

There's some quality people here. I think I'll give this a shot.

[New Neros]

There's some quality people here. I think I'll give this a shot.

Awesome! Glad to have impressed you.

[Altito Asmoro]

So is there going to be an overarching plot? Or are we just a bunch of people putting underwear on the outside of our tights running around Seattle?

There is a major plot divided into five chapters, each having its own main villain. However, whenever you're not doing something for the Benefactor you can run around and deal with some minor thugs/villains and whatnot, and basically do whatever you feel like. The only limit is that the Benefactor would like you all to keep from drawing too much attention to yourself. Theoretically any one of you could be more villain than hero, and so long as you stay of the FBI Most Wanted List y'all good. Was actually hoping for a few evil-ish characters.

Ooh, my character has no such thing as "good" and "evil" system. Though he can be considered evil, since he's a vampire.

[Altito Asmoro]

Tweaked my character to add weakness against silver and how he knows Japanese.
