[INDENT]Mariand'r 'Mari' Grayson[/INDENT]
[B]| [I]ALIAS:[/I] |[/B]
[INDENT]Nightstar[/INDENT]
[B]| [I]AGE:[/I] |[/B]

[INDENT][B]Tamaranean/Human Physiology:[/B] Like her mother, Mari's alien physiology constantly absorbs ultraviolet radiation and converts it to energy. Mari has green eyes with no pupils, pale orange skin and dark iridescent purple hair. When she is using her abilities in full force, her hair seems to glow and react like fire. However, this is simply an illusion. Unlike her mother, Mari is only half Tamaranean, thus lacking most of her mother's tremendous strength, stamina and durability. Mari however has inherited her father's natural athleticism making her a very agile combatant.

[B]Energy Absorption:[/B] Primarily, Mari absorbs ultraviolet radiation from the stars and other sources of radiation. She can also absorb the ultraviolet radiation from other life forms such as Kryptonians who thrive on it. However Mari can not contain as much radiation as her mother thus significantly lowering her power levels and exhausting her abilities much faster. 

[B]Energy Projection:[/B] Mari can project her 'starbolts' at her opponents in a variety of ways. The energy is burning hot and melts or destroys most metal objects and skin. Due to her mother's DNA being modified by experiments by the alien Psions, Mari has inheirated the power and ability to channel and project her stored energy into destructive blasts called 'starbolts'. Mari also has the power and ability to unleash all her stored energy into a pseudo nova blast. While her mother's nova blast was as hot as a burning sun, Mari's is lessened due to her stored energy being nearly halved in comparison to Koriand'r. 

[B]Superhuman Strength:[/B] Like Koriand'r, Mari is superhumanly strong. Unlike Kori however, Mari's strength is far less although still considerable. At maximum strength, Mari is able to lift twenty five tonnes above her head.

[B]Flight:[/B] Mari can use her energy to push herself through the sky which leaves a distinctive energy contrail behind, looking as if it is coming directly from her hair. This only works when gravity is affecting her, and she cannot fly unaided in space. It should also be noted that Mari can not fly at supersonic speeds and as such still requires transport for long term distances due to both this and her lack of true Tamaranean stamina.[/INDENT]
[B]| [I]LIMITATIONS AND WEAKNESSES:[/I] |[/B]
[INDENT]Lacking her mother's superhuman stamina and durability, Mari takes considerable harm although not from her own abilities. To further explain, Mari does not take damage from holding a car above her head or punching through a solid wall, but high caliber firearms can still pierce her skin as can blades if made of a resilient enough material and used by a strong enough foe. Furthermore, as Mari lacks Kori's stamina, her abilities exhaust her much faster. While her stamina is above that of a human's, it's not anywhere notable. This is primarily due to Mari not taking her training seriously hampering her own abilities. It should also be noted that Mari can't exceed a speed of 250mph/400km/h while in flight. On foot, her abilities are those of a skilled athlete. Since Mari lacks true Tamaranean durability as noted above, she can't fly higher than the stratosphere.  

Unlike Kori, Mari lacks the ability to assimilate languages through contact and as such must learn them the old fashion way, much to her annoyance. Lastly, Mari lacks the experience of her parents and intense training her father received when he was her age. This makes Mari a relatively unskilled combatant especially when compared to other students her age. In this department, Mari is her own biggest draw back as she runs in the opposite direction from the legacy in her parents. As such she's something of a slacker and comes across as an apathetic 'rebel'.[/INDENT]
[b]| [i]SAMPLE POST:[/i] |[/b]
[INDENT]The overly cheerful chime of the alarm was possibly the most unwelcome noise that Mariand'r Grayson could imagine at this very moment as it disturbed her sleep, permeating every square inch of her skull. Dragging the covers over her as she buried her head beneath the over-sized pillow, Mari audibly groaned as she realized the darkness which she embraced to sleep had been violated by the constant flickering of daylight as it slithered between the mangled blinds on her window. After a struggle lasting a whole five minutes, Mari finally reluctantly surrendered to the alarm as she rolled over and hit the button, the looming display almost seemed like some hellish abomination as the red numbers angrily stared back at her. 

'9:45? Already? Seriously I feel like it was 3am half an hour ago. A groan escaped her lips as she flopped back over on the bed, spreading out to allow the bed to consume her as the young woman stared at the antique ceiling above her head.

'What day is it even? Do I have class? Please say it's Friday, oh I pray to whatever higher power there may be that it's Friday.' Her inner monologue went on, as she sat up and reached for her cellphone only to let out a cry of anguish upon reading the screen realizing that not only was it not Friday, but it was also Hallowe'en. That mean the Brew was going to be a gong show later. 

"At least I'm not working." She grumbled to herself as she swung her legs over the edge of the bed, feeling around with her feet for her slippers before standing up. Tugging at her tanktop, she looked down remembering she had been too tired for pajamas and had slept in her underwear, silently cursing as she remembered her blinds didn't really protect her privacy. Scrambling to her closet as the wooden floor beneath her creaked and moaned with wear, Mari pulled out a robe and quickly threw it over her. Making her way to the bathroom she nearly did a double take as her reflection looked like it was already dressed for this evening. Mari had forgotten to remove her makeup from the day before and now it, combined with the mess of hair atop her head gave her a look that could probably turn a gorgon to stone. 

'Ugh.'

Reaching into the glass enclosure, Mari turned the tap and began to run the hot water, ensuring her shower would be more than warm enough before she undressed. Pulling a fresh towel out of the nearby closet, Mariand'r peeled off what few clothes she had on before stepping into the baptism of hot water as it rained down on her seemingly washing away all her stress of tiredness. Mari was a firm believing that a hot shower was better than any cup of coffee in the morning. 

[hr]
After the hot water tank had been drained and about an hour after that, Mariand'r finally emerged from the bathroom, only her robe between her and any would be peepers in the dorm across from hers as she moved back into her bedroom. After quickly throwing on her usual attire of jeans and a tank top, Mari decided she had best check in on her emails ensuring that she hadn't missed anything from the class that took place while she had taken her shower. Her stomach growled as she sat down at the small desk and opened the laptop, the first reminder that she hadn't eaten yet this morning.

'12:30, fuck!' Or rather this afternoon as the case was currently. She shook her head at the time as she opened her inbox, noticing a rather large amount of emails from 'Facbook'.

"Don Macintosh has added you as a friend, Charles Glover... Fredrick Hattin... Who are these people? Fuckin' creepers." Mari muttered as she leaned back in her chair, selecting all the emails and hitting delete. Clicking open a new tab, she logged into her Facebook and quickly 'ignored' the same friend requests. "Preferred when it said rejected. Bunch of stupid boys." She noted that most of them had been at the Brew last night, which meant they too attended Corrigan and figured she was cute so they could add her. 

'The least they could have done was talk to me first.' Her stomach suddenly growled again prompting Mari to close the laptop and grab her leather jacket off the back of the door before locking up her apartment and heading downstairs. Coming out into the hallway, Mari nearly collided with a wall of orange and black balloons. Her eyes starting to glow as her hands began to heat up but the sound of another person caused Mari to step back, cooling down as she looked around the floating wall.

"Good afternoon Mari!" Came a male voice from behind the balloons as one of her dorm mates poked his head out. 

"Hey Scott," Mari responded with a small wave. She really wasn't in the mood for letting small talk stop her from grabbing a bite to eat. But she knew Scott, and he'd want to talk. "Serena got you setting up for tonight already?" She asked, moving around the balloons and slowly moving towards the dorm's exit.

"Yeah buddy, Ravencroft's favourite holiday tonight. I thought you'd know that. You've been here over a year haven't you?"

"I'm in my third year actually," Mari responded turning towards the door only to let out a silent sigh of exasperation as Scott continued the conversation.

"Oh well, I can't believe we've known each other that long. I feel like it was just yesterday we bumped into each other and I had to buy you a new coffee." He smiled wide as he looked at Mari who hid her annoyance quickly.

Please tell me he is not flirting with me. "Hey Scott I was ju..."

"So are you working tonight?" His voice quickly spoke over Mari he nearly caused her lip to bleed as she bit down on it in frustration. Her angry stomach growling loudly under her jacket.

"No I'm not." She answered flatly turning to leave as Scott continued to talk. 

"Well you should come out to the dorm party then! I mean, you won't get to sleep with the party happening below your bed."

"I think I'll stay at a friend's!" Mari called back trying to ignore the cynic in her head. Friends, what's that, someone else to let get close so they can stab you in the back.

"Uh well, maybe you and I could get a bite to eat sometime." Scott added as Mari exited the building.

And there's the date invitation. She shook her head as she began to walk across the campus towards the mess hall. Maybe one of these days someone could look at her and not treat her like her flirtatious mother.[/INDENT]

[*][B][color=ed145b]Allen, Rick[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]Probably the fastest kid on campus (Sorry Tanya! Luv ya gurl!), Rick has that certain adorkable quality to him that normally I wouldn't find attractive. There's something fun in making him sweat with a bat of my eyes, it's interesting to note that he can move his mouth almost as fast as his legs. Could be something to keep in mind down the road.[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=0072bc]Blackwell, Frederick[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]I met Freddie on the first day of school this year, being the kind senior that I am, naturally our 'Meet Cute' involved a 'Watch where the fuck you're going!'. We became fast friends after that. It's nice I guess because Freddie doesn't just stare at my chest although he has commented on how big they are. I almost sent him into the stratosphere for that one. What is it with guys and boobs?[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B]Bordeaux, Amethyst:[/B]
[INDENT][I]Short explanation of reasons behind the classification.[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=00a99d]Dowie, Richard[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]Nice wand dude, maybe buy me dinner next time before you whip out your wood. I jest of course but it's fun to make him nervous. I mean it's cool he can wave it around whenever he wants, but the way I hear it he has trouble keeping it up.[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=0072bc]Kama, Jason[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]This is a chill dude and I can actually respect that (Don't quote me on that Dad!). That said, Jason is kind of a goof but hey, it's amusing and he's always good for a couple of free laughs. Plus I have a suspicion that Jason doesn't eat meat due to his connection with sea life. I can't see him violating the beasts of the land and sky either.[/I][/INDENT]

[*][B][color=0072bc]Kent, Kieran[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]A [b]fuckin' Kryptonian[/b], like where do these guys come from? I was sure both Dad and Grandpa described ol'Big Blue as the 'Last Son of Krypton'. As Julian's best friend, Kieran is pretty alright even if he's a bit of dork wearing the 'S' around campus. Either way, he's cute, maybe if things don't work out with Julian.[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=f26522]Kyle, Jack[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]Ugh, this boy. If he makes another pass at me I'll make sure to melt his gimp suit into his skin. I'm also pretty sure he has at least five pens of mine and possibly some of my makeup. I definitely haven't been able to find my favourite lip gloss since the last time we had a class together.[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=0072bc]Lamont, Tanya[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]At first Tanya rubbed me the wrong way, I assumed she and her bird would cover the dorm in feathers but somewhere along the way she managed to pierce my Bat-forged armor. I guess living with someone can eventually endear them to you as is the case with Tanya. We have a lot in common, primarily our blurred heritages. She seems to think because I'm into music I might want to play in a band with her, I mean I might if I'm not too busy with anything else.[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=00a99d]Lancaster, Kyle[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]Nervous kid. Doesn't like to be touched, and keeps his hands to himself. My kind of guy, but I'm sure he'd only disappoint if I got to know him.[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=ed145b]Luthor, Julian[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]A Luthor, a true to life [i]fuckin'[/i] Luthor. I couldn't even believe it the day I learned his name. Hell, I couldn't care less as to what he looks like, the guy is [b]A)[/b] Loaded, [b]B)[/b] Brilliant and [b]C)[/b] My father would hate him. All good points for Mr. Luthor and all good points for me.[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=ed145b]Murray, Fenris[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]Something about this guy, I want to punch him in his smug face but another part of me wants to jump his bones. The worse part is, it's like he knows it. He just leers at me and it's like gah! I'd be more descriptive here but my Dad's likely going to read it so... That all said, I have a hunch I'm not really his type, pretty sure he's more into hot dogs than tacos. But hey tequila![/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=00a99d]Noelani, Valtina[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]She's polite, cute, pretty and absolutely [b]deplorable.[/b] Like who the fuck does she think is buying that act? No one can be that nice. In all honesty, I don't know the girl at all but man all that sugar is sure to give way to rot sooner or later.[/I][/INDENT]
[*][B][color=f26522]S'tonn, S'tann[/color]:[/B]
[INDENT][I]Prick, prick, prick, prick, [b]motherfuckin'[/b] prick!. Although there's something somewhat attractive about his rampant disregard for others. Too bad he's green, I mean green eyes are totes adorbs but green skin is too much.[/I][/INDENT]

[HIDER=AIDEN ROTH][color=ed1c24][B]| [I]NAME:[/I] |[/B][/color]
[INDENT]Aiden Gabriel Roth[/INDENT]
[color=ed1c24][B]| [I]ALIAS:[/I] |[/B][/color]
[INDENT][I]~None~[/I][/INDENT]
[color=ed1c24][B]| [I]AGE:[/I] |[/B][/color]
[INDENT]18[/INDENT]
[color=ed1c24][B]| [I]ABILITIES/SKILLS/EQUIPMENT:[/I] |[/B][/color]
[INDENT][color=ed145b][B]//ABILITIES:[/B][/color]
[INDENT]Aiden has the ability to create and project thermal energy from his eyes. This thermal energy can be ejected from the eyes in one of two ways, as concussive blasts or as a powerful continuous beam.

When fired as a concussive blast, Aiden can either fire these blasts singularly or in rapid succession. The size and speed can all be controlled, with Aiden gaining more skill with his abilities each year. The temperature of his ability is variable with the hottest temperature reaching 1510 degrees Celsius (2750°F) which is even capable melting through solid steel. While Aiden can't force his ability burn any hotter than the above number, extended exposure would eventually raise the temperature of the target higher than the above numbers.

Like the temperature, Aiden controls the force behind each concussive blast. He can simply radiate heat from his eyes or, Aiden can put up to enough force to easily lift an object over five tonnes into the air, as maximum Aiden has even managed to offset a thrown car. That said, due to the strain Aiden can't keep consistently manage that much force. Likewise as with anything, the width and diameter of Aiden's blasts and beams have an effect, a focused narrow beam is more likely to cut through a target where as a wide blast will push back or knock down a target. As with the temperature and pressure, Aiden can control the size of his beams whether they're small precision blasts or wide, large blast for a maximum area of effect. While Aiden's optic blasts can be fired anywhere within his vision's range, the solid beams can actually be bent and curved by his own will as opposed to reflecting and refracting off of mirrored surfaces. To this extent, Aiden can literally chase a target with his optic beams as long as they are within eye sight.

Due to the heat and force behind his vision powers, Aiden has slightly improved durability primarily in heat resistance. Additionally his balance is enhanced in order to be able to stand against his own concussive force.[/INDENT]
[color=ed145b][B]//APPLICATIONS:[/B][/color]
[INDENT]Aiden's optical powers have a wide variety of uses outside of the obvious combat ones. For instance, a low heat beam can be used to help bring of the body heat of a teammate on the verge of hypothermia. Likewise, his abilities could also be used as a signal flare or to start a fire.

A blast or beam with a very low to no heat level could be used to push a teammate who's out of arm's' reach in the case they were in danger or didn't see an incoming threat. A focused high heat beam could be used to cut with surgical precision if given training, further more it would also cauterize the wound. High level heat beams can also be used to weld or cut through metal and other materials. Wide beams can be used for a maximum range of effect, such as evaporating snow, ice or even water.​[/INDENT]​[/INDENT]
[color=ed1c24][B]| [I]LIMITATIONS AND WEAKNESSES:[/I] |[/B][/color]
[INDENT][color=ed145b][B]//LIMITATIONS:[/B][/color]
[INDENT]While powerful, Aiden has several notable limitation that come with his abilities. First and foremost, his energy levels are not finite and overuse will leave Aiden complete drained, possibly even unconscious. In order to recharge his optic powers, Aiden requires rest and sustenance. Abuse requires substantially longer to recover from.

Furthermore, despite being resistant to the heat produced by his own abilities, Aiden can't handle the heat from his optic blast if he were to completely drain it at maximum temperature in one continuous beam. This would likely leave him with severe burns to his body as well as permanently blinded.​[/INDENT]
[color=ed145b][B]//WEAKNESSES:[/B][/color]
[INDENT]Aiden's abilities tend to hinder his vision while in use, each blast he fires is a moment when the world is completely distort in a burst of brilliant colour, likewise while emitting a beam attack, his vision is almost completely obstructed leaving him open to attacks. This is particularly exploitable when you realize that Aiden's own attacks can be redirected back at him and are completely able to injure him though to a lesser extent than the intended target due to Aiden's resistance. 

His attacks are however difficult to reflect but certain mirrored surfaces are capable of doing so, some glass structures too are capable of refracting his attacks and altering their path. Lastly and perhaps most notable, Aiden's body is only a small step above that of a regular human, his skin is no more resistant to knives and gunfire than a Norm making him fairly easy to kill if unprepared and unarmored.​[/INDENT][/INDENT]
[color=ed1c24][b]| [i]SAMPLE POST:[/i] |[/b][/color]
[INDENT]The smell of dirt overwhelmed Aiden's as his face was forced down into the ground, the taste of grass overpowering his mouth as the small green blades pushed through his lips and in between his teeth. As the weight of the other body got off of him, Aiden pushed himself up with his arms, another student coming over to grab the football as Aiden silently cursed to himself, spitting out the grass from his mouth as he stood up. Blinking back his glowing red eyes, he gave his head a shake in disbelief for the fact he just tried to outrun a speedster.

"Shouldn't have tried that Roth!" A playful voice yelled as Aiden looked over at voice responsible for tackling him. 

"I dare you to get the ball next Zippy, I'll knock you on your ass from halfway across the field." Aiden laughed as he returned to his team's line up. Meta-ball was one of his favourite past times at Corrigan, it was football but with powers. Naturally that made for a much more interesting game.

"Roth get in here!" Bruce, Aiden's team's quarterback ordered. Like Aiden, he was able to manipulate energy, however his abilities were quite different as he was able to charge the potential energy in an object, releasing it in a large kinetic burst. It made him ideal for a Hail-Mary play. "Alright so here's the plan, Zippy over there has the ground covered so we need to somehow get past him if we want to win this game. This is our final down and we can't afford to blow it."

"Why don't you run the ball? Charge your own potential energy and launch across the field?" Aiden suggested as the other teammates murmured their agreement.

"Alright, I'll try it, but I'm counting on you to blast that speedster Roth. Everyone else, stick with your man. We've got this! Break!" Bruce yelled as the team turned around and ran to the line. Within seconds, the ball had snapped and the two teams were clashing until suddenly Bruce went barreling through, his explosion of energy propelling him almost as fast as Zippy could move. Running as fast he could, Aiden tried not to fall behind, and suddenly felt a 'WHOOSH' as Zippy passed him. Narrowing his eyes, Aiden slid to a stop and let loose a crimson concussive blast. As he narrowly missed, Aiden let out a curse as Zippy closed in on Bruce. Breathing in deeply, Aiden focused and instead of Zippy aimed at Bruce as he suddenly dropped to his knees and aimed upwards, unleashing a beam of energy from his eyes. A cry arose from both of the players as Zippy tackled Bruce just as the beam collided with them, raising both into the air as they continued to fly forward. With a thud, they suddenly dropped to the ground as Aiden stood and cheered. Rubbing his head as he too stood up, Bruce suddenly slammed the ball to the ground and joined in with Aiden's cheering as the team followed suit. Aiden's quick thinking had boosted Bruce into the endzone allowing the team their winning touch down. 

"Told you I'd blast you Zippy!" Aiden called as the other teen shook his head and smiled. 

"Good game Hotshot, we'll get you next time." 

Scoffing, Aiden laughed as he turned back to the Speedster. "Don't count on it." He said with a wink as he headed towards the mess hall, a celebratory slice of pie was in order.​[/INDENT]
