Friends:

I would like to ask you guys a favor. One way to gain more members is to advertise in many places. One underused but helpful way of advertising this RP is in your signature as I do. And so I'm asking if you would put the following in your signature. (On the User Control Panel, then click the Profile tab (which is above), then click the "edit signature" tab which is below.) If you don't want to, that's fine, and I won't kick you out of the RP if you don't. But the signature does get noticed, and it can help to have us recruit more people.

Copy and paste in your signature if you are so willing...

On another note, I'm liking the regular participation and interactions. We're off to a good start. Thanks for making this an enjoyable RP to OP.

Lamer Asku

Name: Rega
Codename: Rega
Age: 24
Sex: Female
Appearance: (Image) Like this but minus the eye patch and has long straight black hair instead of curly blond hair.
Biography:

In a supper secret underground lab quite a few miles south of Orient, Minnesota scientists had created a living fabric for the company Adid-A.S. (not to be confused with Adidas). This living fabric was created to tap into the minds of people wearing it and the wearers would tell it how to look. This would also make Adid-A.S. very rich since people would no longer have to buy clothes. Now there were twelve scientist that worked on this protect one of them was Asku. Now Asku was your typical comic relief character that would always trip, get random cravings, and would do random things. But despite all of this she was smart as a whip and was in charge of the scientific project. Now of course since she was in charge of the project things went south very quickly. And after only a month of working Asku had some how become infected with the regenerative fabric which at the time was a mind controlling parasite. But some how Asku's immune system was able to weaken the parasite. Which destroyed the parasites mind controlling abilities but it did not kill the parasite. The next day Asku found herself to be wearing some sort of pink outfit. While this freaked her she still decided to go to work only to find that the place had been shut down while she was asleep the night before. Out of work Asku went to a life of crime and then to a life of villainy.

Powers:
Superishpowers: Her clothes that provide practically no protection regenerate and she can talk to clothes even though they usually don’t talk back.
Definitely Normal Powers: She's smart.
Problems: Gets random cravings for clothes, trips A LOT, and since her clothes are parasites (they drain energy to repair themselves) she can’t fight for very long without having to leave.
RP sample: (You've seen it)

Describe your abilities: Well my clothes are apart of me and can heal themselves but not me and they only provide the most basic protection for me. I think I can talk to clothes since after I was infected I could speak a new language. I’m also very smart since I was a scientist. (What Rega doesn’t say but thinks is “I trip a lot, my clothes are parasites that drain quite a bit of energy which prevents me from fighting for very long, and I get random urges to eat clothing.”)
Why did you turn to crime: Since my job with Adid-A.S. went south I decide since you only live once might as well live an exciting life and I was poor.
Why did you further become a supervillain: I’m always looking to improve and when a criminal improves enough the become a super villain It's how it works.
How do you feel about the Infinites: Rega begins shouting in untranslatable language with the only familiar word being Infinties.
What's your end goal: Get as strong as possible maybe even strong enough to go back in time by spinning the earth backwards.
You've captured the hero/heroine, what happens now: Ummm… depends on the hero and what mood I’m in.
Do you plan out your monologues or do they just sort of happen: They just happen.
Let's hear a sample of your evil laugh (the noise you'd make when your plan is succeeding): "Yes! Yes! Yes!" Rega starts doing some sort of cheerleader routine.
Let's hear a sample of your evil roar (the noise you make when your plan is failing): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcLPNGLRHU8
Any lines you won't cross: Yellow lines... Ohhh you mean things I won't do.... well besides not crossing yellow lines yeah I don't really have any.
Would you prefer an archenemy, or would you rather just drift around from rogues gallery to rogues gallery: Rega once again begins shouting in untranslatable language with the exceptions of three familiar words being All, Infinties, and Archenemy.


This is looking a lot better Iron Wolf. The powers look a lot more in line with the overall theme of the Infinites.

Question - When the clothing is repairing itself, where does the clothes drain energy from? Like car batteries, or tapping into the local power grid, or plugging in, or taking it from another person?

Also - Since there's already been one character you have previously used named the same name "Asku", would you be willing to change the name so as to make this character different?

I like this character. I'm not putting you off. With these clarifications, I will definitely accept her.

The clothes drain energy from her (like a parasite) and her new name is Rega.

Ok then. Rega is Accepted. Welcome to the Infinites! Please edit the app and put Rega's name there.

Everything that has happened so far with the villains - the villains' meeting, and the thwarted attempt to steal the radioactive elements the next day, Rega has been with them the entire time. This is a long running gag that will keep running here. Any time a new hero or villain shows up, they will have been with the Infinites or the villains the entire time of the RP (even though you the player were not). So feel free to have Rega react to the alien can, the fungi, Florida Man getting kicked, etc.

Nice to see another Squirrel Girl fan, Talchyon.
I use my NationStates stats, because a population of billions/trillions and an economy of hundreds of trillions is totally viable, trust me.
But seriously, aside from the population and GDP, just assume that my NS stats are roughly accurate.

Support: Paleo-imperialism, conservatism, libertarianism, Christianity.
Against: Stupid people, resistance to industrial progress, alt-right, any form of government at or beyond socialism.

Hi Skylus! Thanks for checking us out!

We already have an NPC character who is soft-drink based, Diet Cola. I would prefer to keep the powers somewhat unrelated to each other if possible. However, if you're interested in playing him, you'd certainly be welcome to. I could find you previous posts where he was in them prominently.

Villan App

Name: Connor Hanson
Codename: Mr. Pig
Age: Mid-50's (appears younger)
Sex: Male
Appearance: Human-form- ginger, tan, golden eyes, likes to wear black suits, stands 6-4, 170 pounds.
Beast-form- blue, huge muscles, tusks, bloodshot golden eyes, bloodstained claws and hooves, can squeal very loudly. Wears remnants of black suit.
Biography: Connor was a business man, conning other people out of their money. Then, one day, he found himself conning a pig farmer. A crazed pig happened to bite him. He made it back to his freaking huge castle office, but then he passed out. When he awoke, he found that he had blown up the office and that he was a blue furred giant pig. Shortly after, the Infinities showed up and he had the time of his life.
Powers: Human form- can con people out of money, steal things
Beast-form- is very powerful and is very hard to take down. Can become enraged. Owns a huge golden tridents that can kill people.

RP sample: Hogwarts


(Answer this as if you were speaking as your villain) -
Describe your abilities: My human form can't do much, unfortunately, however, I can become rich very easily...Not that I already am, of course.
My beast form is very powerful, stands about...seven feet, has defining muscles and all of that, have I mentioned the trident yet? I make it extra sharp.


Why did you turn to crime: Who doesn't? easier to make money that way- Oh, look, Did you lose something?

Why did you further become a supervillain: Who doesn't? Think of all the publicity you'd get!

How do you feel about the Infinites: ....don't mention them. Actually, they let me test my new powers on them, so that's a bonus.

What's your end goal: To....Take over every single corporation on Earth?

You've captured the hero/heroine, what happens now: I'd steal everything they own and send them to some far away country with no means of coming back.

Do you plan out your monologues or do they just sort of happen: I plan them out very far in advance. I even rehearse them, figuring out how I should say some lines.

Let's hear a sample of your evil laugh (the noise you'd make when your plan is succeeding): ...Now? *sighs* fine
"Mwwwwwhahahahahahahahah!!!!!"
...Are you happy now?


Let's hear a sample of your evil roar (the noise you make when your plan is failing): ...Do you want this in my beast or human form?
the human version sounds completely ridiculous, however....
GGGGGRRRRAAAAAAAAOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!
There. Does that satisfy you?


Any lines you won't cross: Please explain further.

Would you prefer an archenemy, or would you rather just drift around from rogues gallery to rogues gallery: Nemesis, there's something exciting about waiting for them to seek you out over and over and over....

As for your request for explanation, the app is asking, will your character stop at harming cute fuzzy animals, or girl scouts, or surfers, etc? Will they commit murder, kidnapping, etc?

Speaking of murder, I'm going to nerf your trident. While it could possibly kill people if used that way, we're not going there in this RP from it, without express permission from the OP.

Also, one other thing. When Pig Man is in beast mode, I'm assuming he stands on two feet and not four, and then can use his hands like normal?


Funny app. I like this guy.

Mr. Hue Green App

Postby Inoroth » Wed Jul 26, 2017 3:34 pm

Name: Hi, my name is Hue Lucas Green, but most people call me Hue, unless they're stiffs, then it's something stupid like "Mr. Green". I just wanna say I'm so honored that you're considering me for the Minnesota Infinites!

Codename: Really? You wanna know my Codename? That's wicked cool man -- ya know, most organizations don't really care about them, but it's good to know you guys care about the important stuff. Prism. I go by Prism. It's a sweet name when you consider what I can do, what with all of the changing of colors and such. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

Age: 24, old enough to drink but young enough to partaaaaay!

Sex: Yes please! Nah, I'm just messing. I'm a man, a male, chromosome XY, a duuuude.

Appearance: Sexy beast, of course! I have the hair of a mop, the beard of a god, the nose of an Italian, the skin of a ginger, the body of a guy who never works out but plays catchup-football biweekly ('cause I do, thank you very much).

Image


Bio: Not much to say, really. I still have both my parents *shocker*, and as far as I know, no one else in my family has superpowers. I was never the popular guy in school, never really unpopular either. I got average grades and played a few sports, but nothing terribly out of the ordinary.

I got my powers in a total freak accident. It was a dark and stormy night and I was working at a paint factory when some other weak supers and villains started fighting -- never really figured out over what, because seriously, why rob a paint factory, right? Anyways, in my attempt to escape I fell over the safety railing and into the mixing vat at precisely the same time that lightning struck through a hole in the roof and one of the villains dropped some briefcase full of chemicals into the same vat (lot happened all at once, I know). I fell in, felt a tingle, and climbed out. Ever since then, I've been able to make things into whatever color I want. That's about it.

Powers: The science-guys call it Chromatic Manipulation: the ability to temporarily change the color of myself and other objects blah blah blah... You know how Microsoft Paint has that paint can fill tool thing? It's basically that. I can MS paint, but for real life. Just the fill tool though.

RP sample: You mean, like, role-playing games? You guys do those too? This group just keeps getting more and more awesome. I once wrote up this old medieval nation called Taniar, here's the transcript for that sweet fantasy story, then there was this one time I thought magnatism would be a pretty cool power, so I made this Blaine character and joined the CYOS Group for a while till they broke up.




Describe your abilities: Like I said, I can change the color of myself and other people and objects for a short period of time, depending on how big they are. Sadly I've not been able to do any of the extreme things that might imply -- no hard-light, no invisibility, no light-based attacks like lightning (that would be soooo awesome though), no holograms... The only thing I can do is take existing objects and changes their color, by pointing at them and imagining the change. I've done some awesome pranks too -- you ever seen a river turn from blue to red in an instant? You ever seen someone reach into their wallet and pull out pink money? It's sooooo hilarious. It's nothing permanent either -- the average time it takes for the color to wear off is about two hours, more for bigger objects, less for smaller ones. It's kinda embarrassing, but I also cannot handle complex colors like patterns or multiple colors in one go -- each color change requires a separate act, and each time I use my powers I get real tired.

Why did you become a superhero: What else was there to do? To do nothing with the powers would be a waste, to use them for evil would be a tragedy, so the best option was to be a hero. Now, how much heroics I've been successful at is probably up for debate.

What are your goals for the future: I wanna go some good, ya know? The big shots save planes from falling out of the skies and stop crazy powerful masterminds like every week, and some day, somehow, I want my life to matter that much. Not for fame, 'cause who wants that noise? I just want my life to matter, ya know?

(Why is this character with the Minnesota Infinites. In other words, why do they kind of suck?): Well, Aside from the obvious complete lack of offensive power capabilities, people say I am a total trickster and prankster, that I don't really take anything seriously unless it's deathly serious, and even then. People say "Mr. Green is fun to hang out with for an evening, less fun to have to work long hours with", and they're probably right.

How would you describe your talents?: Like, my powers? I just did that. Outside of super powers, like a party trick? I'm pretty good at whipping up something in the kitchen, when I feel up to it. I can crush just about anyone in mario super smash bros. I know a few card tricks and sleight of hand. There's the accordion too I guess, more of an armature with that though. I can identify Lesotho on a blank country map. I can twist a cherry stem into a knot in my mouth? I don't really know what else there is.

(What about your character's talents make them a D-lister?) They're "childish" and "useless" and... well, lame, really. Unless we face a guy whose only weakness is flexible fruit twigs bent into shapes, they're not that great really.

What are your strengths?: I'm very creative, I like thinking outside the box. I'm funny, at least I think I'm funny. I know a lot of useless trivia on random stuff. I'm pretty patient, 'cause most problems tend to sort themselves out in time. I like to think I'm selfless, that whole code of honor and moral right and all. I'm pretty good at keeping secrets and such. I'm also easy-going, things don't get under my skin.

What are your weaknesses?: I lack disciple and drive, not terribly good at following rules and following processes. I get bored easily, and am not really an expert in anything. I let important things fall by the wayside. I also irritate a lot of people.

(Any other flaws? Maladjusted personality? Social issues? Unmarketable aspects?): I think I could probably pass a psyche test, maybe with some mild masked depression. I also don't take too much seriously, nor do I like to put too much effort into things.

Why should you if given the opportunity be allowed to advance in the Infinites?: Because I'm a cool guy? I don't know. Depends on what the opportunity was that allowed me to advance. Don't put me in charge of anything too important though.

(Why does the press hate or ignore you?): Do they even know I exist? Probably not. How many crimes do you think can be stopped with changing colors? I mean, I could think of a ton of crimes one could commit with that power -- vandalism, cons and hustles or maybe I could change traffic light colors and cause chaos, but that's not my speed.

Name: Hi, my name is Hue Lucas Green, but most people call me Hue, unless they're stiffs, then it's something stupid like "Mr. Green". I just wanna say I'm so honored that you're considering me for the Minnesota Infinites!

Codename: Really? You wanna know my Codename? That's wicked cool man -- ya know, most organizations don't really care about them, but it's good to know you guys care about the important stuff. Prism. I go by Prism. It's a sweet name when you consider what I can do, what with all of the changing of colors and such. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

Age: 24, old enough to drink but young enough to partaaaaay!

Sex: Yes please! Nah, I'm just messing. I'm a man, a male, chromosome XY, a duuuude.

Appearance: Sexy beast, of course! I have the hair of a mop, the beard of a god, the nose of an Italian, the skin of a ginger, the body of a guy who never works out but plays catchup-football biweekly ('cause I do, thank you very much).



Bio: Not much to say, really. I still have both my parents *shocker*, and as far as I know, no one else in my family has superpowers. I was never the popular guy in school, never really unpopular either. I got average grades and played a few sports, but nothing terribly out of the ordinary.

I got my powers in a total freak accident. It was a dark and stormy night and I was working at a paint factory when some other weak supers and villains started fighting -- never really figured out over what, because seriously, why rob a paint factory, right? Anyways, in my attempt to escape I fell over the safety railing and into the mixing vat at precisely the same time that lightning struck through a hole in the roof and one of the villains dropped some briefcase full of chemicals into the same vat (lot happened all at once, I know). I fell in, felt a tingle, and climbed out. Ever since then, I've been able to make things into whatever color I want. That's about it.

Powers: The science-guys call it Chromatic Manipulation: the ability to temporarily change the color of myself and other objects blah blah blah... You know how Microsoft Paint has that paint can fill tool thing? It's basically that. I can MS paint, but for real life. Just the fill tool though.

RP sample: You mean, like, role-playing games? You guys do those too? This group just keeps getting more and more awesome. I once wrote up this old medieval nation called Taniar, here's the transcript for that sweet fantasy story, then there was this one time I thought magnatism would be a pretty cool power, so I made this Blaine character and joined the CYOS Group for a while till they broke up.




Describe your abilities: Like I said, I can change the color of myself and other people and objects for a short period of time, depending on how big they are. Sadly I've not been able to do any of the extreme things that might imply -- no hard-light, no invisibility, no light-based attacks like lightning (that would be soooo awesome though), no holograms... The only thing I can do is take existing objects and changes their color, by pointing at them and imagining the change. I've done some awesome pranks too -- you ever seen a river turn from blue to red in an instant? You ever seen someone reach into their wallet and pull out pink money? It's sooooo hilarious. It's nothing permanent either -- the average time it takes for the color to wear off is about two hours, more for bigger objects, less for smaller ones. It's kinda embarrassing, but I also cannot handle complex colors like patterns or multiple colors in one go -- each color change requires a separate act, and each time I use my powers I get real tired.

Why did you become a superhero: What else was there to do? To do nothing with the powers would be a waste, to use them for evil would be a tragedy, so the best option was to be a hero. Now, how much heroics I've been successful at is probably up for debate.

What are your goals for the future: I wanna go some good, ya know? The big shots save planes from falling out of the skies and stop crazy powerful masterminds like every week, and some day, somehow, I want my life to matter that much. Not for fame, 'cause who wants that noise? I just want my life to matter, ya know?

(Why is this character with the Minnesota Infinites. In other words, why do they kind of suck?): Well, Aside from the obvious complete lack of offensive power capabilities, people say I am a total trickster and prankster, that I don't really take anything seriously unless it's deathly serious, and even then. People say "Mr. Green is fun to hang out with for an evening, less fun to have to work long hours with", and they're probably right.

How would you describe your talents?: Like, my powers? I just did that. Outside of super powers, like a party trick? I'm pretty good at whipping up something in the kitchen, when I feel up to it. I can crush just about anyone in mario super smash bros. I know a few card tricks and sleight of hand. There's the accordion too I guess, more of an armature with that though. I can identify Lesotho on a blank country map. I can twist a cherry stem into a knot in my mouth? I don't really know what else there is.

(What about your character's talents make them a D-lister?) They're "childish" and "useless" and... well, lame, really. Unless we face a guy whose only weakness is flexible fruit twigs bent into shapes, they're not that great really.

What are your strengths?: I'm very creative, I like thinking outside the box. I'm funny, at least I think I'm funny. I know a lot of useless trivia on random stuff. I'm pretty patient, 'cause most problems tend to sort themselves out in time. I like to think I'm selfless, that whole code of honor and moral right and all. I'm pretty good at keeping secrets and such. I'm also easy-going, things don't get under my skin.

What are your weaknesses?: I lack disciple and drive, not terribly good at following rules and following processes. I get bored easily, and am not really an expert in anything. I let important things fall by the wayside. I also irritate a lot of people.

(Any other flaws? Maladjusted personality? Social issues? Unmarketable aspects?): I think I could probably pass a psyche test, maybe with some mild masked depression. I also don't take too much seriously, nor do I like to put too much effort into things.

Why should you if given the opportunity be allowed to advance in the Infinites?: Because I'm a cool guy? I don't know. Depends on what the opportunity was that allowed me to advance. Don't put me in charge of anything too important though.

(Why does the press hate or ignore you?): Do they even know I exist? Probably not. How many crimes do you think can be stopped with changing colors? I mean, I could think of a ton of crimes one could commit with that power -- vandalism, cons and hustles or maybe I could change traffic light colors and cause chaos, but that's not my speed.



Very nice. Mr. Hue Green is ACCEPTED. Welcome to the Infinites!

Ok, so here's how the deal works. We don't use profanity here, so just be aware of that.

Story: A lot of radioactive material was found under Orient, where the MN Infinites are. The heroes have all come to hear the lecture by famed researchers Drs. Rose N. Crantz and Gil Denstern. But they saw the villains trying to rob the radioactive materials so came to stop them. Then, an alien message delivery system in the form of a hollow looking can on an energy string came by and announced that Earth was entered into an intergalactic battle of champions, but hadn't signed up anyone to be champions. So the can on the energy string took all the radioactive material and some peanuts, and disappeared. Earth now has the short amount of time left before the aliens get back to decide who will be Earth's champion(s).

I tell you all this because, as a running gag from previous Infinites RPs, your character will have been with the Infinites the whole time, even though you as a player have not been here. Have your character interact with the others by the warehouse / near the park. That's where you start off.

I use profanity very rarely, and I'll do my best to refrain. I appreciate the story recap, and I'll try to get a post up by tomorrow night. About how long should I assume that Hue was involved with the Infinites?

They did just welcome in some new members, so this could be his first go-round with them. Technically, 2nd day on the job. Or it could be even longer, going back years. Up to you.

Thanks, Mirigli! I'm glad you like this. We have fun with this. Plus I tend to be the kind of OP who words things in just such a way that you never quite know what exactly is going on until the very end. (Just check out how we all did with the previous arc, The Lamest Heroes). I'm hoping to make this just as humorously suspenseful until the end. And I do have some definite things that I'm planning for places down the line in chapters to come. How we get there? That's partly up to all of us. We'll figure it out together.
