Race Application


Race Name: Parahumans

Location: Thule

Race Appearance: Indistinguishable from modern humanity. Typically Northern European in appearance.

Culture/World: Kept in voluntary isolation, yet with frequent observation of humanity, the Parahumans see themselves as higher class beings and more evolved than those on the surface. From their floating fortress of Thule, society is often autocratic and ruthless, with steep divides of social class and the privileges associated with such classes. Despite that, even the lowest ranked Parahuman sees themselves as far above a baseline human, and in terms of physical condition, they're often not too wrong. As a collective, they're currently voting on increasing their interaction with the surface world after the alien events that transpired some years prior.

Biography/Lore:
Travellers, traders, and invaders came to Northern Germany during the Roman era, and the secret societies of the Pagans that lived there were subjected to Roman pantheons, but hung to life on the outskirts of villages and temples. Their kind would develop strange practices, mystical techniques both truly magical and scientific anomaly, finding their breaking point during the Christianization of the Frankish Empire, forcing the Pagans to adapt or perish. Fleeing once more, the the Pagan mystics sought refuge in Scandinavia and the Baltic States, where they took up a military stance to defend their beliefs.

In the ensuing Northern Crusades, several sects were forced to band together as defeat seemed inevitable to the Christian hordes, and they fled once more to a mythical isle known as Thule, never to be seen again in history, thought dead, and ultimately forgotten in time. However, Thule was not a known island of the world, but a mythical creation that floated above the seas and land. Hoisted above the land through magical energies, one hundred pagans arrived on the floating island by unknown means, and began to recreate their version of a perfect society.

Centuries would pass, and the inhabitants of the island would gain tremendous and unmistakable powers by virtue of living on Thule, attaching "Para" to their species' name, declaring themselves beyond human. Even their pagan beliefs would erode with time as their chieftan became a king, and eventually, their kings saw themselves as a god. Kept in isolation, the High Council on Thule, advisor to the God-King, would frequently launch scouting parties on Earth to attain new information and keep abreast of worldy events, remaining mobile on their fortress home and hidden from the prying eyes of man.

Now, their worldview of superiority is threatened as mankind seeks to gain powers and abilities in excess of the Parahumans, a threat that is unwinding the political scene of Thule as debate rages on whether or not contact should be fully made. The current and undisputed God-King, Petraeus Paragon, remains woefully silent on the issue, and is expected to make his wishes known to the High Council soon.


Inherent Powers/Abilities:
  • Enhanced Condition: All Parahumans are physically and mentally more capable than their human counterparts, giving them their claim to superiority even for the lower classes of Parahuman society. From this baseline ability, some Parahumans develop more complex and metahuman-esque powers, but not all are capable of such feats nor do all Parahumans have more powers than Enhanced Condition.
  • Decelerated Aging: Parahumans natural lifespans prove to be fairly long, with several members reaching into second centuries, with most of their first spend in their "prime", and the second slowly drifting into old age.
  • Omnilingualism: Able to speak any human language and understand them near-perfectly through a mystical and as-of-yet unexplained process in the Parahuman mind when in direct contact with another being, Parahumans can learn to be fluent almost immediately upon meeting someone.


Weaknesses
  • Mortality: Despite their physical superiority, Parahumans are still very mortal. Extreme heat and cold, though able to withstand more than a normal human, will kill them, same with electricity, toxins, kinetic energy, and the like. A Parahuman is able to take more abuse, but can be killed.
  • Weakness via Powers: In Parahumans with additional powers beyond the baseline, a significant weakness is apparent more often than not. A fire manipulating Paraman will be weak to water, for instance. In some instances, having additional powers leads to a reduced lifespan for Parahumans.
  • Cunning Linguists: Parahumans cannot immediately understand alien languages or the language of magical beings, but can easily learn and grasp human languages when in brief contact with them. Their words will be understood, but speaking back correctly takes a little effort. The natural language of the Parahumans is known as High Gothic, and is closely related to several (no longer) extinct East Germanic languages.

I had Aegis commandeer an Inquisitor fighter jet and head towards the rift to try to close it only to see several other heroes trying to close it themselves.

Aliens invaded, heroes are fighting them, Brain tried to close the portal and sent out a call, he weakened it, but it still works and is now falling to his doom (JK sal is supposed to rescue him), Star's characters will attempt a second closing later, Many inquisitors are one Floating Hexagon things the leader is on one solo.

Name: Ty Robinson

Superhero Name: Will take suggestions.

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Race/Species: Human.

Appearance: normally
Personality: Kind, give others a helping hand, knowledgeable, slightly reckless on occasion.

Biography:
Powers/Abilities:
  • Enhancement of self: Due to his control over his body, he can increase his eyesight to beyond normal levels, or any of his other senses. He can also manipulate his body activating adrenal glands or the like. He can also increase his body’s speed or reflexes, or other similar things.
  • Body supremacy: He has near total control of his body and it’s functions. He can manipulate his body, to change his appearance, be it eye color, hair color or skin tone he can do it. He can also change how he looks to a varying degree. He can also determine what types of pheromones his body releases. His body can also endure and suffer more stress than a normal person would be able to, this aids his body in being able to survive the enhancements he does. Without needing enhancements he can utilize all of his body’s physical strength.
  • Enhancement of others: He can give people who do not have any sort of enhanced attribute a temporary boost. He can also say, shut of a person’s sense of touch or something similar, though that is much more time and energy consuming to do, depending upon the degree of manipulation.


Weaknesses
  • The body has limits: While he can boost his own strength and other attributes to near maximum, he can still be overpowered or outclassed by those who possess attributes that are behind the maximum that a human can have. There is also a time limit for the enhancements. The Enhancements to his senses can cause problems. Should he enhance his hearing, loud noises can disorient him or even damage or burst his eardrums, same with enhancing any of his senses, or that of others. He also can’t make the body do anything that isn’t possible, while he can give himself infrared vision, True x-ray vision would be a no go (humans are capable of a limited version though), he could let himself breath underwater, but not go without air.
  • Tactile Contact: Both Touch and some level of concentration are required to alter another’s body, or to give them enhancements. He must make contact with the area he intends to affect, the greater the change the more contact and concentration is needed. He must als know what he is doing, what muscles or nerves he is affecting.
  • I Don’t think the body is supposed to do that:As the name suggests, If he does something using his powers to himself or others, there will be repercussions. Such as, over using his strength will result in muscle strain or even failure, that will take a while to repair, if he is even capable of that currently.If he causes himself to be double jointed, afterwards those joints will be stiff or painful.


Equipment: None, with exceptions.

Likes: Biology, experiments, helping people.
Dislikes: idiots, foolish doctors.
Theme Song: (Optional)


Additional information:
Still WIP, would like opinion on the powers, rest will be added.
RP Sample:


I'd live to see this person with Andre. Does enchantment only increase physical capabilities of others or it also increase magical/physiological abilities?
