Her group has been camping out by some abandoned Warehouses in the Iron District.[/INDENT] [b][u]Appearance[/u][/b] [b]Hair Color:[/b] [INDENT]Orange[/INDENT] [b]Eye Color:[/b] [INDENT]Blue[/INDENT] [b]Ethnicity:[/b] [INDENT]Scottish & Russian[/INDENT] [b]Physical Appearance:[/b] [INDENT]The best word to use to describe Jessica's appearance would be eyecatching. Jessica is very tall for being a girl, she towers above other females, and can stand eye-level with basketball players. With her exact height being 6'6. She just simply looks like an adventurer. It's in her eyes, her face, her attire, and the way she carries herself. She just looks like someone who's ready to jump up and start having some fun. She kinda has the look of a tomboy, but still has plenty of features that show her feminine side. She has short hair, muscles, and usually has a bruise or some dirt/grease on her face. All coming from her upbringing out in the mid-western parts of the US. Features on her such as scars and very bruised knuckles suggest that she gets into fights a lot. Jessica has a muscular and lean physique, much like her height, it comes from her powers. She does work out in attempts to get even stronger. That's not to say that she has massive bulging muscles. If she were to show some skin, people would get impressed with her build. She has six-pack abs, hardened through physical exercise. She has mighty long limbs, lengthy arms and legs. With large hands and feet. Other than her muscles, she has plenty to flaunt. Long legs with thick thighs and calves, impressively large D-cup breasts (Pushed up with her bra to look bigger), a well toned rump. She certainly looks feminine with these features. Jessica is a redhead, and it's easily one of her most striking features. She has a face splattered with freckles, along with some on her upper body - and speaking of her skin, it's rough and calloused, giving people the impression that she is the type who's on the move constantly. It's a beige color, and splattered with some freckles, along with some scars. There's a scar on her cheek, right under her eyeball, that goes to the lower part of her jaw. It's red, fleshy, and ugly. More importantly, fresh - it's obviously a recently dealt wound. She also has several other scars on her body, but fortunately no where near her face. Most notably, she has three bullet hole scars. Two off-center on her chest, or another in her shoulder. These scars seem to have been dealt from. She has bright-orange hair, cut short, and very wavy and wild. It's styled like a cropped pixie-cut, with the sides of her head shaved. It's maintained to the best of her ability - which she has a bit of trouble doing herself. So she usually gets a friend to help her style it. Aside from her hair, Jessica has rugged facial features, and lean her on the tomboy side. She has a, thin, diamond shaped face, with sharp features. Most notable part of her face is that she has large rosey cheeks, that are covered in freckles. She has a very sharp jawline, with a round chin that blends very well with it. Jessica has big, round, eyes, with pale-blue irises. Her eyebrows are thick, and her eyelashes are quite thin. She has a large, upturned nose, that is fairly round, and has a very thick nose bridge, and two wide nostrils. Jessica's ears are somewhat large, aren't disproportionate to the rest of her face. They stick out somewhat. Lips are medium size, and far from pronounced. They have a healthy size and thickness.[/INDENT] [b]Attire:[/b] [INDENT]Jessica's is best described with the word: vintage. She dresses like a 80's highschool jock, stemming from a fascination with those old 80's highschool movies. She constantly wears a 80's Varsity Letterman Jacket, of various colors. She usually gets the one that's a few sizes too large for her. Her favorite jacket is a red and navy blue jacket. Usually she would wear a matching T-shirt, polo-shirt, or button-up, under it. So, yeah, Jessica wears boys clothes. They're comfortable for her, and there's not too companies out there that sell clothes her size (That are cheap). Not even panties, instead she wears boy's boxers. She usually wears a bra that would accommodate her size. Almost like how she wears a Varsity jacket all the time, she always seen wearing jeans. Usually the light-blue colored ones. They can be long, or shorts. Don't matter to her. However, when it's too hot to wear a jacket, she usually just throws on a simple T-shirt and calls it a day. Sometimes she wears a soccer get up. Jessica isn't the type to cover herself in jewelry, the extent of her jewelry are the gold-orb earrings she puts in each ear.[/INDENT] [b][u]Personality[/u][/b] [b]Innate & Outward Personality:[/b] [INDENT]Cheerful, playful, and very laid back, is what she comes across to her peers. She's far from the super aggressive Amazon that most people assume her to be. She tries her best to be the big fun people that everyone should be around. The one that tries to keep herself and everyone around her chippy as possible. People get the feeling that she acts nice, dorky at times too. It's rare to see her get angry at all, she casually brushes off any asshole that approaches her, and very rarely takes them seriously. Though, if she does get angry, she's very hard to calm down. She's a terrifying berserker. It stems from her arrogance, that they are no problem, only background noise. Speaking of her arrogance also causes her to drastically underestimate her threats. Because of her strength, she feels that she can take everything out in one punch. If she does get into a fight, she tends to drag things out and show off her strength. Like it's a show. To Jessica, she sees things as a competition, or a game, and she views herself as the champion of them all. Which is why she's so willing to fight anybody - but mostly the strongest. Because, to her, she's the grand champion that can take anyone. In casual situations, this attitude isn't so pronounced, but people may be quick to note how she looks down on them, and speaks as if she's better than they are. However, she takes loses surprisingly well. She just uses it as motivation to get better, and tells herself that she'll win next time. But, Jessica is the kind of person who'd accept all challenges - fights or not. She's quite optimistic, to the point of idealism. Which paves way to a bit of naivety. She doesn't think too hard about things, and takes things at face value. If someone knows enough about her, she can be pretty easy to manipulate. However, she can be a bit of a problem to order around. Jessica isn't exactly the type who takes orders from people. One thing she hates is someone assuming that they're the boss of her. Often resulting in conflict. All because Jessica is quite stubborn. Though, she's more receptive towards her friends. Despite these traits, Jessica takes time to have plenty of fun outside of brawling other Metas. She'll go out for a drink with you, go bowling, or just chat. Jessica is nice and playful to everyone she meets - very laid back and warm. She has social skills down pretty well. She tends to crack playful jokes at people, whether it's at their expense or not. In return, she has surprisingly thick skin. She doesn't sweat things, and just keeps it moving. Jessica is openly bisexual - or more accurately pansexual. She doesn't care who she gets with - but she never forms any long term or meaningful relationships. They're all just quick bangs. When sitting down with friends, Jessica always has some sort of wild story to tell - whether or not they're true. She's surprisingly open with her friends - especially about her past. She affirms that she has nothing to hide, and it wouldn't her if they knew a little bit more about her. Jess is incredibly adventurous, and is always willing to go on some sort of journey at the drop of the hat. This also leads into her trying more adventurous and risky acts with other people. Though, Jessica has trouble keeping secrets. She may accidentally drop a crucial piece of information at the drop of a hat. Jessica is a well-intentioned person. She's definitely the kind of person who'd go out of their way to help someone (Though, if it's a fight). She'll never (intentionally) harm an innocent - and if she does, she will feel like shit for awhile. She affirms that she has a sense of justice that'd drive her to help whoever needs it. But, in terms of criminals, and the people she fights, it's all fair game. Jessica has zero problem beating down a room full of armed thugs, where she would never even [i]consider[/i] rushing into someone's dining room to beat the living daylights out of them. To her, they're criminals who deserved it, or asked for it, so it doesn't matter what happens to them. Though, she has a strict rule to never kill any under any circumstance. Jessica is a mercenary through and through. She has no true allegiance to any faction - only whoever pays her. She'll do anything they pay her to do - long as doesn't tread on those rules. Her mind doesn't have it's fair share of trauma, however. Honestly, deep down, Jessica would love to turn her back on her lifestyle, but it's far too late for her. She choose this road, and it's too late for her to turn back. The whole near death experience she had made her rather vicious. Being betrayed and killed by someone she trusted tends to do that. She desperately wants to get back at this man - but she knows that she'll never see him again. So she takes it out on whoever dares fight her. Never actually coming to terms with what happened. At the same time, it keeps her up at night. Dreams of the moment where she was shot are almost a constant. They keep her from going to sleep. It's a bit of an obsession she has with the man. She constantly fantasizes about that moment where she finally gets payback on him. [/INDENT] [b]Hobbies/Interests:[/b] [INDENT]Boxing and fights in general are things that Jess enjoys. She loves herself a good competition. Now, Jessica is interested in finding new things to do, and see. She'll explore new cities when she gets to them. She also likes bike-riding a lot (She's still waiting for someone to keep up with her). She often uses bike rides to zip through cities. Jess also likes to watch TV.[/INDENT] [b]Skills/Talents:[/b] [INDENT]Jessica has a talent for all out brawls. She was taught by her father how to box, and also took combat training in Academy 218. Skills that were honed in the underground fighting rings, and various street fights, to perfection. In combination with her strength, she's one kick ass fighter. She boasts she has an ability to knock someone out in one punch. Earlier in her life, Jessica was pretty good at Soccer. She was a big Soccer nut. Though, she hasn't played it in a little while, and is pretty rusty. This won't come into play, but Jessica knows horseback riding. Finally, Jess worked for her father as a assistant car-mechanic for a few years. She won't be pulling any miracles, but she knows her way around a car.[/INDENT] [b]Prized Possession:[/b] [INDENT]The aforementioned Red and Navy-Blue Jacket. Fuck with it if you want to die.[/INDENT] [b]Quote(s):[/b] [INDENT][i]"I bet I can take you out in one punch!" "I'm made of folded steel and sex appeal, what more do you want?" "Hey, hands off the jacket!"[/i][/INDENT] [b]History/Bio:[/b] [hider=Her origins][INDENT]Before I start with Jessica's origins, I should begin with her [i]father's[/i], Hagan Rosefey. Back in his heyday, Hagan was the mafia legbreaker and body-guard known as the "Ox King". A man who claimed to be invincible, and immensely strong. With his strength, he defended the Crime Boss of the Noctis Family. Magic-themed Metahumans who owned a chunk of High-Roller Heights back in the day. He was their most feared employee, since there were few who could counter him. NEST didn't have the advanced technology and techniques that they did today. Being the best employee meant he was their most paid. He accumulated a wealth by saving it all up. However, the criminal life wasn't for him, he already got as much money as he needed. There was only a matter of time before he gets killed or arrested. One night, he just up and left. Leaving nothing in his apartment behind. He settled down far away from Highroller Heights and ended up in Texas. In a lakeview cabin to be exact, and got himself a solid job as a auto mechanic. He moved to Houston, Texas. In the process, he met a woman in a bar named Jessica (Not this Jessica, her mother). Eventually, they married and had a kid, that kid turned out to be the Redhaired Headache, Jessica Sharon Rosefey (Jr)! Jessica was a happy little girl, with little to note about her early life. She received a healthy amount of love, attention, and punishment from her parents. Pushed to be whatever she wanted to be - and she wanted to be just like her dad when she grew up. She wanted to play soccer too, so she played with the soccer team appropriate to whatever grade she was in - up until highschool. Continuing, her school-life wasn't anything special. She didn't prefer super good, just enough to pass and keep her parents happy. She also made plenty of friends with her attitude and personality. This lifestyle went on for years, and once she became eleven, she received a change. Her mother became pregnant with a son, and nine months later, she gave birth to the child who will become Warren Rosefey. A happy child. Jessica accepted her brother with open arms, and as they got older, they got closer. Like brother and sister would. Life progressed naturally, up until she was 16. Then life stopped going "naturally". In high school, Jessica met a boy named Andreas on the Soccer Team, and they became the best of friends. They had similar interests in music, fashion, and sports. They got along fine, so Jessica thought about going steady with the boy. This was the best time of her life, the two of them were inseparable. Everyone supported the relationship, and months in, it seemed like they would be together forever. It seemed that way, especially on July 4th. Andreas took Jessica out to see the fireworks on the hill, and they were beautiful. The night was perfect, the mood was just right... It was sudden, but hormones and passion got the best of them. They choose then and there that they were going to take it to the next level. It was going great, but it quickly went oh so horribly wrong. Jessica was on top, and she pushed down with a bit too much force - and crushed Andreas's pelvis. Jessica didn't notice it until she heard Andreas screaming. Then she started screaming. An ambulance was called, and eventually NEST was contacted. Andreas did not walk away from that with his manhood. NEST had informed her that she had developed Super-strength, and used it to crush her boyfriend's pelvis. Needless to say, Andreas never even [i]looked[/i] at Jessica again. It didn't go unnoticed by school either. Andreas had become the local joke, the boy who got his dick crushed. Where Jessica became the local freak, the Metahuman with super strength. A couple incidents where Jessica broke objects (Breaking doors, walls, and desks) made it difficult for her to sway her classmates (And also required compensation). All her friends turned their backs on her, and it nearly came to the point where she was about to be thrown out of school. The school just couldn't handle her. So, they had no choice but to send her to a school that could. One morning, Jessica was told that she was signed up for Academy 218, a illustrious Academy for people like her someone. Somewhere that she could learn to control her strength. She was scheduled to head there the very next week, and before she left, her father told all about his own power, and how he learned to control his strength: through fighting. He taught her how to fight, he was a boxer, so he passed down the basics to her and hoped she'd put them to good use. Because next week, she was sent to the Academy. It wasn't as bad as Jessica thought it'd be. It was pretty rad actually. She learned to control her strength through the instruction of the teachers, and incidents where she broke stuff. It also helped develop her personality a bit. She was around other people like her, and she made friends of her own out of the students. People like her. She got into arena fights with helped with her reputation, and helped her develop her powers. Soon enough, she requested that she become a full student there, and the request was approved by her parents, and the school. She stayed there, making trips every now and then to come back for the holidays. She had plenty of fun with her younger brother, who was getting much, much, bigger. They had adorable moments together. Up until Jessica was sent back to school. Two years at the Academy, and Jessica graduated with her full NEST certifications. Easily the best time Jessica had. She went home, a eighteen year old woman, and a high school graduate. Stronger than ever before.... Jessica had no idea where to go from there. She didn't have too many long term plans. So, she simply played around, and had fun with her younger brother. People had largely forgotten about her during her time at the Academy, so it was easy for her to get back into the mix. Her father recommended that she work for his Auto-garage until she decided on what to do. She worked there for a while, learning the ins and outs of cars. She went downtown one day, and she encountered a bunch of people beating on one guy in an alley. It was easy for Jessica to rush in and muscle them away. She helped the man up to his feet, sharp dressed, he introduced himself as Cyril Noctis. He told her that they were a bunch of thugs trying to rob him, and she believed it. He noted her strength, and near instantly deduced that she was a superhuman. He offered her a job as his bodyguard. He was a simple[i] gambler[/i] and needed protection in this dangerous city, and Jessica was one of the toughest around. Jessica gladly accepted his offer, and defended Cyril from the large amounts of people who wanted his ass. She beat up criminals - Superhuman or baseline. She didn't raise too much of a fuss over it, they were thugs. Long as she didn't kill them, they should be fine. In the process, Jessica was taken deeper and deeper into the world of Metahuman crime; specifically, the, [i]very illegal[/i], Underground Fighting ring. She didn't have any training other than what the Academy and her father taught her, so she went in head first. The first fight was a rush, she was fighting a man made out of iron. She was strong enough to punch through his iron shell, and she won plenty of money. Cyril also got money because he placed a bet for her. This was her first plunge into sin. Jessica defended Cyril from harm, while beating on random nobodies in the fighting rings. She got herself thousands of dollars fighting in these rings. She could easily make a career out of this! Kicking ass and taking names. However, it didn't go unnoticed by her Father. The signs were obvious: she often came home late at night, wounded, and money was coming out of no where. He told her she was going down a very dark path, and that she should stop. Jessica assured him that nothing was wrong, and continued her day until night fell. A few weeks later, she was given the match of a lifetime. A ten-thousand dollar reward for facing off against a Metahuman who called himself, Urus. He had Bear Physiology and was immensely strong. He declared himself the strongest on the planet, as he punched his way to the top of the fighting ring. The only person he was yet to fight was Jessica, who had similarly fought her way to the top. If she won, she'd get the cash prize and be set for months. However, Cyril approached her and told her that she was going to throw the fight since he placed a massive bet on Urus. They'd possibly get double what they would get from the fight. Though, it was Jessica's nature that was preventing her from agreeing to the plan. She had fought her way to the top, she was going to be sit there, not regress back to the bottom because of some stupid bet. Cyril was furious, but he calmed himself once he realized that there was a whole fifty-fifty chance of her succeeding. After she stepped in the ring, the fight was straight up brutal. They were more or less equal in terms of strength (With Urus being a bit tougher), which meant they basically fought each other like normal humans. They dealt a ton of damage to each other, each punch rocking the arena. Bloodied and pained, Jessica scored the final blow on Urus with a knockout blow that sent him flying out the ring. Jessica did a victory dance as she was handed the money. Ten thousand dollars in bills, stuffed into her gym bag. All she had to do was get home. On the way back home, Jessica felt like someone was stalking her. She felt uncomfortable, so she stepped into a late night diner that was conveniently placed. She sat down in a booth and asked for some coffee. She was immediately confronted by Cyril, and a silent redhaired woman with sunglasses. He demanded the money - to which Jessica refused. One thing lead to another, and it ultimately ended with Jessica throwing the table at them. A brief fight broke out, before Cyril simply pulled out a gun and opened fire on Jessica with a pistol. Two bullets pierced her chest off center, while another hit her in the shoulder. She immediately fell backwards, bleeding to death on the floor. Cyril laughed at her, and grabbed the money - being polite enough to throw her five-thousand dollars, just as a courtesy - before disappearing into the night. Never to be seen by her again. Jessica was in critical condition, and had to be taken to a special NEST-approved hospital, in order for them to operate on her. The bullets graced dangerously close to her organs, but her tough skin made their overall impact much less devastating. Jess, obviously, survived the experience. She was in the hospital for a little while while she recovered. However, her family came in and they told her that she needed to find a different place to live. Her father warned her about what would happen if she continued down this path - he was even [i]angrier[/i] once he realized that she was working for a [i]Noctis[/i]. Months after she recovered, Jessica was told to leave. She choose to explore the US on her own. Her family was fine with that, she was given her father's RV, with the thousands of dollars she earned from the fights, she had enough to sustain herself.... ... For a while, of course. She wasn't super good at managing her money. So, a few months into her trip and she experienced a bit of a money problem. Jessica had traveled far up north to Stadium City. She was in the city notorious for it's criminals... So, she took advantage of the moment. While it got her in trouble in the first place, Jessica got back into the Underground fighting ring - and business was booming in Stadium City. The fights got her much more money than the ones in Houston - as they were being funded by the Tyrants themselves, and her reputation extended to other cities (Which made it easy to get in). She got into fight after fight, until she had more than enough money to support herself. She had no interest in climbing the ranks, she just wanted a quick buck. Jessica got pretty damaged in her various fights - enough that she would have to sit out a lot of fights in order to recover. At this point, Jessica just couldn't, and one of her contacts got her the name of one of the Tyrant's healers who'd do it for a quick buck. Jessica sought out the woman, and got healed - but their relationship extended even further. They became friends, with Quinn explaining her motivations, and Jessica offering protection. Afterwards, Jessica just continued fighting. However, Jessica got into a little situation after she won her last fight. While she was going back to her RV, she spotted a car jacker in the front seat. She tried to speed off - to that, Jessica responded by picking up the entire vehicle over her head. The woman climbed out of the out the car and kicked Jessica in the face so fast she could barely react in time. A fight broke out between the two mutants, the other woman had snake-like features. Jessica's opponent was fast. Capable of dodging all her attacks, but barely getting in any real damaging blows on Jessica. It quickly ended when Jessica threw a punch and landed a lucky shot on the woman. Before things could escalate even further, Quinn jumped in between Jessica and the thief and begged Jessica not to kill her. To which Jessica agreed to, telling her she had no intentions of killing her in the first place. They had a long talk, and Quinn explained that the Snake-lady was her friend Diane Belrose, a "retiring" carjacker. The duo were strapped for cash, so Diane got desperate. Quinn had demonstrated her ability to heal wounds by fixing the damage that Jessica's blow dealt to Diane. They talked for awhile and told each other's life stories to each other. Which gave Jessica the idea to invite them to come along with her. Since they were very similar. Three girls who got involved with the wrong people, at the wrong age, and had no where to go. At first, they were hesitant, but eventually they agreed to come along with Jessica, and their adventure began. The three of them traveled from city to city, getting into all manners of wacky situations. They worked together to sustain themselves. Jessica got into fights for money, Diane snatched wallets, and All three of them did "odd jobs" around the cities (Work for whoever is willing to pay them). And they became the closest of all friends. They recently arrived in Verthaven, for whatever reason. Now they're looking for work.

In case you haven't gotten it from her history section, Jessica's power is that she has unrivaled (So far) strength. Because she has a higher muscle mass, her muscles are capable of easily exerting supernatural amounts of force, and are extremely durable. She has enough strength to throw cars with ease, send someone flying with a kick, and punch through concrete. Jessica can lift around six-thousand pounds at most. Which is enough to lift up three cars, and make sure that anyone who takes a direct blow from her isn't going to get up for awhile. Because of her strength, the muscles in her legs are also capable of carrying her further. She can run faster, and jump higher. Of course, Jessica needs a power to work in the background of this incredible strength. She is insanely tough to boot. Her skeleton has been reinforced in order to support the weight, her tendons and ligaments can't be torn easily, and her skin is rough, and hard to pierce. She's capable of easily shrugging off a weak ass baseball bat, basic blows, or a knife, like it's nothing. Though, bullets (Especially high caliber) would still pierce through her normally. To supplement these abilities even further, she also has a higher stamina.[/INDENT] [b]Limits:[/b] [INDENT]Unless she throws something, Jessica will be restricted to close ranged combat. While she's strong, she's still limited by her stamina. Excessively lifting objects places a strain onto Jessica. Like average humans, her muscles will tire out after doing it a lot. It's rather for her to overexert herself, and feel burnt out. Fighting at full strength isn't exactly ideal. While Jessica is tough as nails, she still feels pain. A punch can hurt her normally. Her durability mostly prevents physical attacks from hurting her, elemental (Specifically Energy) attacks are effective against her. Getting set on fire isn't pleasant (Her blood might boil!), electricity would knock her out, and etc. And, you know, she still needs air.[/INDENT] [b]Weaknesses/Drawbacks:[/b] [INDENT]The first trade off comes when you realize that she doesn't exactly know her own strength. While this might not be a [i]huge[/i] problem in a fight, it certainly makes the mundane tasks harder to preform. She can easily break her items if she isn't careful, or accidentally hurt someone. This doesn't [i]normally[/i] come into play since she has a grasp over her strength, but if angry or not paying attention, that's when she has the problems. The next weakness she has is that she's much, much, stronger than she is tough. If you realize what that means, then is very possible for her to break her hand with a full force punch, or break her joints by lifting up something that's too heavy. When Jess uses her strength, then she has the likelihood of tearing up her bodily tissues. Which would cause some problems. It would also cause plenty of joint pain, and impair her healing. Jess also doesn't have the best balance. Throwing a roundhouse kick is just as likely to knock herself over. Finally, muscle is pretty heavy, and it adds onto her weight. It makes her heavier than most people.[/INDENT] [b][u]Other:[/u][/b] [INDENT]Jessica owns, and drives around in, a large RV. Which is shared by her two lovely companions.[/INDENT] [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWQs-RfPUjg[/youtube] [/hider] [hider=June April Summers (RP: One of Wraith's gay RPs)][b]| NAME(S): |[/b] [INDENT][i]June April Summers[/i][/INDENT] [b]| ALIAS(ES): |[/b] [INDENT][i]Glass Angel[/i][/INDENT] [b]| D.O.B.: |[/b] [INDENT]6/1/1991[/INDENT] [b]| AGE: |[/b] [INDENT]24[/INDENT] [b]| SEX: |[/b] [INDENT]Female[/INDENT] [b]| SEXUALITY: |[/b] [INDENT]June's a real straight shooter.[/INDENT] [b]| APPEARANCE: |[/b] [INDENT]June looks much like a punk, it shows in her appearance and attire very well. She gives off the aura of a "tough-girl". It's probably the way she walks, or the glares she throws at people whenever she moves. Usually being the girl that doesn't stand in the spotlight. What accentuates this feel is the various scars on her (Especially the few scars that are on her face), and the raspy voice of a smoker that she displays with every word. She has been in some tough shit, and everyone can see it. Moving on, June is a woman that stands a bit above the female average at 5'9, nearly approaching the male average. June is relatively fit, she doesn't have a lot of visible muscles or body fat, but she's very slender. Having a slight curvature that is accented by what little muscle-tone and body fat she has on her. So, yeah, she looks like the girl who does a little work. Her legs seem to be the strongest part of her body, having a tone of someone who does a lot of running. Thick, strong, thighs, calfs, and so on. However, they're not the ideal long legs that women hope to have. In fact, her arms and legs are pretty proportionate to the rest of her body. She has sofa, delicate hands, that don't too nice since they have a coating of small scars. She's around 141lb in terms of weight, which isn't too much given her size. June is obviously Caucasian, with her white skin being a porcelain color with light shades. It's not perfect, or clear, even in the slightest. June's arms and upper body are coated with thin slashing scars, caused by glass accidents relating to her power. Most of them have long faded, or are fading, but some wounds just never heal. There's a scar from a cut starting at her cheek, going around to the back of her head. It was done by a knife, or a glass shard. June doesn't talk about it. There are also some scratching scars on her face. Other than that, June's body has blemishes, moles, beauty marks, and etc. June herself, racially, is a native to Canada. With her roots coming from Germany, England, and Scotland. It shows in her distinctly European facial features. Speaking of which, we're going to be moving on to her fabulous face! Starting off, June has a, small, oval head, with rounded features that blend into each other quite well. June's cheeks are quite rounds, which aren't very apparent until the woman smiles. Then they become round and large as they get. June has a small, upturned, triangle shaped nose, that looks proportionate to her small, natural shaped lips. That don't have too much thickness to them, her bottom lip is much bigger, but they poke out a little bit. Usually, June puts on red lipstick to make them stick out more. June's jaw is thin, and smooth, and she has a slight jawline. She has a large and pronounced square chin with a cleft in the middle of it. June has big, round, vibrant, eyes that have a light-green color to them. Her ears are a medium, reverse-triangle, shape. June's hair is a straight, black color - that has been dyed jet-black (With a few streaks dyed dark purple) to enhance the aesthetic. She keeps it cut short, styled in a pixie-cut on the top of her head. The sides of her head are shaved, cut very short. As for her attire, June goes for a biker, or punk, style. Choosing leather jackets, jeans, and gloves over skirts and dresses. Though, June sometimes wears skirts, she just doesn't do it that often. Some of her clothes could be called immodest, as she tends to show a bit of cleavage, or reveal a little extra skin in general. Whether she's doing this on purpose, or is merely apathetic, is the question. She's a real big fan of boots though. She likes to wear them for style over practicality however. Which is why she's sometimes seen wearing high boots, or heeled boots. [/INDENT] [b]| H-CLASS: |[/b] [INDENT]NEPTUNE[/INDENT] [b]| ABILITIES: |[/b] [INDENT][i]Glass-Manipulation.[/i] June is the glass angel. She has the elemental ability to control and transform into glass. I'm going to start off with the manipulation aspect of her power. For starters, June can telekinetically control all glass (Regular, volcanic, plexi, etc) far as the eye can see and fiddle with it a bit. She can shape, and recolor, glass without breaking or melting it. Hell, she can make any glass construct long as she has enough material for it. June can also alter properties of glass to some extent. She can change the color, flexibility, hardness, and compact glass together to increase the density. Glass is a fairly hard material (But brittle), and it's fairly commonplace, so it's a pretty strong element to manipulate. A unique ability that June has, that ties into her ability to transform into glass, is that June can absorb glass into her body, which is necessary for a few other powers she has. June can also partially transform her body into glass, which is necessary for her next ability. Now, by partially turning her palms into glass, June can shoot glass shards, of various sizes, out of the palms of her hands. Another trick that she has learned is regeneration. It's a trick she learned by turning the wound into glass, absorbing some glass to repair the wound. Once she converts it back into flesh, all better![/INDENT] [b]| LIMITATIONS: |[/b] [INDENT] [list] [*]While June can manipulate glass as far as the eye can see, she has an [i]effective[/i] range. It's around fifteen-meters. Anything outside this range; she has a harder and harder time controlling. [*]June can only manipulate a certain amount too. She can only actively manipulate around one ton of glass. [*]More glass June manipulates, the less fine control she has. [*]June cannot create glass, herpaderp. [/list] [/INDENT] [b]| WEAKNESSES: |[/b] [INDENT] [list] [*]Glass is a brittle element. While it's technically harder than steel, there's only so much it can take before getting broken. Someone could pull out a bat, or a machine gun and destroy her constructs. Someone with super strength can easily punch through her constructs. [*]Glass gets softer under heats, easier to break. June can't really control malleable glass that well. It's melting point is high, but it can melt under a high enough heat. If it by chance melts, then June will lose. [*]June requires concentration when she uses her power. If she loses it, then all current usages of her power will be cancelled. [*]June's regeneration is not a clean and easy process. For starters, it isn't automatic, she has to actively will it to happen. Second, it's painful, requires concentration, and leaves behind scars. So she can't really regenerate on the fly. It's more of stop, absorb some glass, and find some cover so she can fix herself. However, the process will leave phantom pains lingering for awhile. [*]June's ability to absorb glass is essential to her power. Every time she uses her power, she uses up a bit of the glass that is inside of her. Once she's out of glass, then she won't be able to use her power until she absorbs some more and jumpstarts it. However, in order to absorb glass, she has to stop for a few seconds and focus. The process of absorbing glass will leave her vulnerable. And after every major use of her power, she will have to stop and absorb some glass. Do the math. [*]June [i]can[/i] turn into glass. Why that's down in the weakness section, I'll explain. Whenever June uses her power, she may accidentally turn a part of herself into glass, and lose function in that part. The bigger the use, the more of her body may turn into glass. She has to focus a little bit to make her body revert back into flesh, but it could leave her quite vulnerable. If someone were to break the glass, it would appear in her human form as a wound. Either a bleeding cut, or a missing piece of her flesh, which can and will get infected quite easily. It's possible for her to lose a limb, if it were to convert entirely into glass. If she were to go overboard, she could potentially turn her entire body into glass and die a quick death. On the brightside, she'll be a bitchin' statue. [*]June isn't immune to glass in any way. She could possibly cut herself if she isn't careful. [/list] [/INDENT] [b]| APPLICATIONS: |[/b] [INDENT] [list] [*][i]Offense.[/i] Glass, being glass, it is a fairly powerful offensive element. June can fire glass off in a variety of forms. Since she can shape glass into practically anything, she can make a variety of weapons/constructs. Glass can be [i]pretty[/i] damn sharp if she makes it that way. She can shred foes with large shards of glass, slam them with large panels of glass, or stab them with spears. More advanced offensive techniques would be creating glass "grenades" that send glass everywhere, a "glass storm" full of whirling shards, and etc. She could also crush the glass and toss it into someone's eyes. Blinding them for life! [*][i]Defense.[/i] Of course, glass can also good for defense as it is for murdering people! June can do the usual, and create glass panels (Or any glass construct, really) to act as shields. Her shields can take a bit of damage before going down. Alternatively, June can create an armor made of glass around herself. She can also turn this armor into an offensive technique, by enhancing the hardness of her punches, or making in the armor sharp to cut people. Since glass has a high-resistance to acid, it's also great for defending against those acid flinging morons! [*][i]Mobility.[/i] Movies give glass a terrible reputation! If the glass is thick/dense enough, June is capable of standing on it, and manipulating it in order to "surf" on it. She's capable of flying with this method, though it'll take a ton of balance and practice. [*][i]Repairs/Construction.[/i] Aside from combat, June's power has plenty of uses outside of a fight. As it was mentioned before, June can pretty much shape glass into anything. So she could make a cup. Or create a piece of art. She can easily repair broken glass. [*][i]Easy Entrance.[/i] June can easily enter buildings, quietly and discreetly. Since have you seen how many places have entrances blocked by glass? June can simply remove the glass, step in, and put the glass back. Which can allow her to break into houses, cars, and so on. [*][i]Minor-Telekinesis.[/i] Like other benders, June is capable of moving objects by covering it in glass, and moving it. However, this only works on lightweight objects. Anything heavy is out of her grasp. [/list] [/INDENT] [b]| SKILLS: |[/b] [list] [*][i]Skull-Knocker.[/i] June has done plenty of fighting all of her life. She doesn't have any martial arts training, but she certainly knows how to hold her own in a fight. She can throw one hell of a punch, and knows exactly where to hit someone to take them out. She also fights very dirty, since, to her, you don't stay alive by playing fair. [*][i]Vehicles.[/i] June has always had a fascination with cars and other. Since she was a little girl, her father worked in an auto-repair garage. He taught her plenty of things about cars. Like, how they work, what each part is and what they do, and how to fix them. She knows plenty about cars, and can easily spot issues with vehicles and more. What her father [i]also[/i] told her how to do is break into cars. June also knows how to drive pretty well. She can drive cars and motorcycles like a master. [*][i]Crime![/i] June has lived a great deal of her life as a criminal. While she's trying to turn back from that lifestyle, plenty have just stuck with her. June knows how to hotwire a car, pickpocket people, and sneak around and run like hell. She hasn't exactly been "[i]practicing[/i]" any of these skills lately, so they're a little rusty. [*][i]Knifeplay.[/i] June knows how to swing a knife around, she can hold her own in a knifefight too. But, through fiddling in her spare time (Due to another fascination), she has taught herself a few tricks. Well, not the tricks that could be used in a fight, but she can flip knives, throw them (Not very well), and do that cool knife-game thing from Aliens! [/list] [INDENT] [/INDENT] [b]| EQUIPMENT: |[/b] [INDENT] [list] [*][i]Motorcycle![/i] June [i]loves[/i] her bikes, and she has... "acquired" one in the past. A jetblack Harley Davidson V-Rod. It's her main method of getting around. [*][i]Knife![/i] June has a combat knife, and a few other knives she has gotten from the pawn shop. She normally uses the combat knife since the other ones aren't too practical. Only useful for flashy tricks. [*][i]Lighter & Smokes![/i] June's a heavy smoker, so she always keeps a pack of cigarettes on hand in case she needs to get her fix. She usually uses a silver lighter with a scorpion engraved onto the side to light her cancer sticks. [*][i]Glass![/i] June keeps a bag of glass shards in a little pouch, either on her bike, or hanging off her belt. [*][i]Regular Crap![/i] June keeps her wallet, cellphone, and so on, close to her at all times. [/list] [/INDENT] [b]| BACKSTORY: |[/b] [INDENT]It's dark and tragic. I'll try to be brief, since I don't really feel like writing a massive wall of text, and I spent too long rewriting this. So, if you haven't gotten it from her appearance section, June's a native to Canada. With her father being an automobile mechanic, and her mother being an agent of H.E.L.P, she didn't have to live in poverty. She was middle-class at best, and had enough money in order to support their various hobbies. Though, June didn't exactly have any hobbies that really interested her. She definitely wasn't the sports time. Writing and art didn't appeal to her that much either. She was the middle child to two sisters, both of whom were much different from her. Her mother was incredibly busy with her job, to the point where she wasn't around much for June's, or her sisters, youth. Thus, they lacked that strong feminine figure and had no choice but to fall on her father. They were pushed towards sports, and spent plenty of time in his auto garage. In there, June gained her love of cars, something about them fascinated her so much. There was so much she wanted to do with them, but she was turned down because she wasn't old enough. However, what she [i]was[/i] old enough to learn about cars. She was taught about what makes up a car, and other useful pieces of information. To the point where she could easily identify pieces. But that was the bright side they knew about him. Deep down, her father was a cold-hearted racist. He was apart of a Canadian Neo-Nazi group known as "The Pure". The whole automechanics garage was a bit of a front, he was fixing their vehicles, and committing hate crimes on the side. Still, he didn't let his family in on what he did, it was his secret. An easy to keep one since his wife was too busy to care, and his kin were too young to know what he was doing. Back to June, her school life wasn't spectacular. She wasn't exactly a social butterfly in school. She was a bit of a loner, because she felt that she didn't exactly mesh well with the other kids. So, of course, to them, she was some freak! She was also picked on for being "strange", so that did wonders for her. Fortunately, June could always fall back to her family for comfort. But what it did do for June was make her quite vindictive. Deep down, she wanted to get back at them, but she was told that it'd be foolish to try to do so. So she kept it inside of herself. Once June got older, she had found her place in the punk, and goth crowds. In highschool, she did plenty with the various book and debate clubs. However, her father was a very laxed man when it came to parenting. Perhaps too lax. The sisters were free to do as they pleased. June's sisters got involved in some bad crowds. The kind of crowds that like to go wild, hit up on drugs, commit thefts and vandalism, and jaywalk. They were certainly what you would call young delinquents, and they loved it. That taste of danger was something else. June was far more relaxed at that age, so she didn't exactly rush out to get her thrills from crime. All her thrills came from her books. Her powers had developed in a truly scary moment, all the windows in her house exploded outwards like a bomb had went off. Everyone in the neighborhood panicked, and they couldn't find any reason why this happened. Her family stayed in a hotel for a little bit while repairs and investigations went on. That's where she discovered her powers while looking in the mirror, she accidentally pulled a shard of glass off. She eventually realized that she could move glass with her mind. When she went home, she began practicing with her magic glass powers. She learned about the many applications of her power. But, she hadn't been careful enough with her practice. Her father had stumbled into one of her sessions, and learned about her power. June had feared that he would cast her out for it. However, his expectations had drastically changed. After a long talk, they decided that it'd be their little secret. Because... he had other plans.... What he saw in June was potential, she was a Hyperhuman that had control over glass. In other words, a walking weapon for The Pure to use. All he had to do was convince his daughter to join. Of course, that didn't exactly go too well, since she didn't want anything to do with The Pure. So he went for the more drastic "I'll reveal you to the world, disown you, toss you out, and etc" plan. That was enough to get June to work with them, reluctantly of course. Her first trial was simple, brutally attack an interracial couple. June had no choice but to comply. When they were getting back from their date, June made the glass from the windshield of their car fly into them. Cutting them up, but June was trying not to murder them, so they survived. It felt terrible, June felt horrible for what she did to those people. But it was only the beginning. Attack after attack, fight after fight, June was forced to go through it all. She was like a dog, whoever she was told to do, she did. Until she became used to it all, almost like she was adopting their ideals. She didn't feel bad about it anymore. She felt as if it was merely a subconscious desire to keep her father happy, and her life normal. As a result of this, June learned how to use her powers well. In and out of fights, she had plenty of applications for it. This went on for years, under the nose of her family. Heading out every night to commit crimes. She advanced through school - barely, however. She tried hard enough to get a pass, because she was exhausted (Physically and emotionally). It continued until two years before current events, The Pure were finally failing. Superhuman vigilantes were going strong, and disrupting their activities at every turn. Members were interrupted, beaten, and left for the police in the middle of attacks. The Police were also kicking The Pure's ass. Really hard. To the point where moral was running low, and there were less and less members. Other members cut their losses and left. While the loyal members, like June's father, stuck with them, and expected their best weapon to do the same. However, this was where June drew the line, and realized that she finally had a way out. During one of their meetings, June had betrayed The Pure in a spectacular moment. She drew all the glass she could, and cut them to pieces before they could even react. June didn't kill them, she merely left them for the police, or whatever vigilante was left, to mop up. However, she made sure to cut up her father extra good. With that, The Pure had fallen. June had left and went home. She confessed everything to her mother, who had forgiven her for what she had done, and forsaken her husband. Her mother and June had agreed to keep her past a secret, and try to turn her life around. Starting with getting a job as a waitress in some family owned restaurant. She was trying to raise money so she could go through college. Though, June had always wanted to put that power to good use. Try to stop the other crooks in this city. The plague that's running around the city is tearing the place to pieces. Hyperhumans going out of control. June didn't know what she could do to help with that, but she felt that her chance would come to her eventually. [/INDENT] [b]| SAMPLE POST: |[/b] [INDENT]The lights of this city glowed brightly, flash into the family diner that June so happily worked in. Known only as "The Stackhouse". Today (Well, tonight) the woman had the nightshift, and it was, well, the same as every damn night working here. Some rude asshat asks for food, she tells the chef what they want, and she comes back and gives it to them. It might have been a bit more tolerable if she wasn't forced into this uniform. A black dress shirt with white details, and black pants with a white skirt above it. Ugh. But, hey. At least the pay was good. She walked up to a table, which an elderly man was seated, likely in his late-thirties, early forties. Had a slight beard, a dress shirt, and a fedora. He sure as hell looked like someone who'd be hanging out in these diners late at night. She walked up, with a notepad in her hand that had a blue-ink pen pressed against it. She kept her face pointing at it, with her eyes wandering towards the gentleman. Kindly asking, "Can I take your order sir?" He took his hat off, and placed it on the table, before he scooted closer to the table. "Just a... coffee." He said with a casual grin. The kind of grin that made June think he was up to something, but she didn't know what. Maybe she was being paranoid, but you can never be wrongfully paranoid. She stared at him for a few seconds, wondering what he was up to. What crimes he has committed. What sins haunts him. He reminded June of those damn skinheads she used to roll with. It was funny how normal they looked. They waved at you as they watered their lawn, with a friendly smile on their face. Then they commit hate crimes behind your back. It was all accidental, really. She didn't realize that she was staring until he loudly cleared his throat. After ten seconds of awkward silence. "Okay, sir." June said as she quickly turned around and rushed off behind the kitchen door. "One coffee please." She said to the kitchen workers. She waded through the crowds of people until she found her boss, a similarly elderly woman of a very short and hunched over stature. She was yelling at the cooks that run the gears of this diner. "Can I take my smoke break?" "Yeah, yeah, sure." The woman replied, "But you have ten minutes!" Ten minutes was all June needed to relax. To clear her mind and calm down for a little while. June rushed right out the door and got into the alleyway between the diner and a store that are next to each other. Illuminated only by the single light above her head, she leaned up against the wall, kicked up one foot against the wall. She slid one cigarette in between her lips, and lit it with a silver lighter. June took one puff, arced her head back, and blew it in between her lips. She didn't really worry about the potential criminals and fiends that may prey on her. She has a Hyper-power, and apathy, on her side. Because who's going to believe the mugger that the tall woman with a pixie cut covered him in glass shards? A loud shout of anger pierced her nicotine high. June turned her head towards them, and realized that it was a couple arguing. Well, they were arguing the whole time. It's just that June didn't pay attention to them until they started shouting. Well, going on, there was a very tall and muscular man, getting a little grabby with a short fat chick. An odd couple, but who knows how these people hook up. She couldn't make out what they were saying too well, but it didn't matter. The guy was getting a little too aggressive for June's liking. She felt that she shouldn't get involved while on shift, but she wasn't the type to stand by. June rolled her eyes and kicked off the wall. She took a few steps towards them, and shouted, "Hey asshole!" She yelled to get their attention, mostly the Beefcake's. "How about you keep your hands to yourself?" She put weight onto her hip and placed a hand onto that one. That cigarette in between her fingers kept fuming grey smoke. "Hey! This isn't any of your business, bitch!" The man shouted. Of course he was the rude douchebag. June seems to be a magnet for them, and put a few on their asses. But, June didn't want to fight. She wanted him to go away so she can enjoy her smoke. She's pretty sure she spent more than ten minutes on this smoke break. Heh, maybe the boss would take this story has an acceptable answer. "It became my business when you decided to put your hands on her." June quickly answered. Taking a quick inhale of smoke, and blowing it in his direction. "Hey, fuck you!" The man shouted, as he rushed over and shoved June to the ground. She hit the concrete hard, and she instantly felt the pain shoot up her arm. She rolled over on her side, to get a good look at the dog fucker. Just in case he was going to stomp her. Okay, she didn't expect the asshole to start throwing fists that soon. But on the plus side, all she has to do is call the cops and get his ass. Wait, what is he up to? She hears the woman screaming. She pressed one foot onto the ground, and pushed herself up. She looked up and saw that the man was trying to shove the woman into the car. He probably thought June was out for the count. Well, time to prove him wrong with a little heroics! June turned the palm of her hand into clear glass, with sharp glass blades coming out. One shard came out at high speeds and pierced his leg. He hunched over in pain and let out a loud cry of pain. The woman cupped her mouth and took a step back. June, turned her hand back into flesh. In the blink of an eye, she was back to normal. The woman ran away. He was still yelling in pain. June had an odd face of satisfaction on. "Looks like you got what was coming to you." She said, before she telekinetically pulled the shard out, and threw it on the roof. June turned away, and walked back into the diner. Wait, shit! It was twenty minites! Her boss is gonna kill her!

Jaska is very thin, and doesn't seem to have a pound of muscle on him, nor body fat. He's rather unimposing because of that regard. Jaska is average heighted (4'8), and is rather lightweight (74). Jaska has rather long limbs, with his legs making up a good amount of his height, and his arms just as long. Because of his mixed heritage (He's half Brazilian, and half Japanese) Jaska has light yellow-brown skin. His skin is generally clear, except for quite a few scars. From a load of accidents, his skin has plenty of scars, except well concealed by his outfit. Jaska has four slashing scar starting from the right side of his chest, going down to his waist, from a previous incident. As a result of his mutations, Jaska has a handful of bestial mutations, that make him look like a hellish monster. Jaska has massive bat-like wings with a fourteen-foot wingspan when outstretched. That allows him to fly, since they have immense wing-strength. These wings can be folded and compacted. Jaska's finger-tips are long, razor-sharp, jagged claws, that are also hooked slightly. Jaska also has these claws on his feet, which is why he doesn't wear any shoes. He has a six and a half foot long, tiny, thin prehensile tail, with a tiny blade at the very end. When Jaska opens his mouth, a hellish mouth of shark-like teeth are revealed, plus, he has a long, reptile-like tongue - It doesn't help that Jaska has a large, wide mouth. Other than that, Jaska looks somewhat normal. Jaska has a small, round-shaped head, with generally rounded facial features. He doesn't exactly have super-model level handsomeness. He's rather plain in the facial feature department, not handsome, not ugly. Jaska has full, round cheeks, that are rather pronounced. Jaska has a large, hooked nose, that has very large nostrils and a thick nose bridge. He has small, thin, near girly lips. His mouth is very wide, and opens to reveal that aforementioned mouth of teeth. Jaska has very pointed ears like an animal. Another part of his mutation. His ears are narrow, but large. Jaska has small, narrow slanted eyes, that have an unnatural golden iris. These irises seemingly reflects light off them when a light is shined onto them. Jaska has very black hair, that's straight and well kept. It is kept in a shaggy style, with strands of hair brushed aside. His hair is ear-length. [b]Attire:[/b] For his age, Jaska dresses quite fancily - Well no. Every tries to make him dress fancy, only to fail when he tears up his clothes. He's often seen wearing a old and tattered suit made for him ages ago. Though it's long lost that former glory once Jaska started wearing it for awhile. Jaska has a wide selection of clothes with holes in the back for him to put his wings through. Though, sometimes he wears regular clothes and keeps his wings compact. Jaska is never seen wearing shoes of any sorts. [b][u]Personality[/u][/b] [b]Outward & Innate Personality:[/b] Jaska is a very energetic young boy that rarely seems to hold still. Sometimes he's there. Then he's over there. He's quite easy to distract - Though, if something really has his attention, then he'll rarely divert focus from it. When excited he speaks quickly, and rarely gives thought to his words. Though when calm he speaks like this time. Jaska is nice to everyone, however, sometimes he can be rude. Or unwittingly blunt. Though, there are a few people that he regards as mean people and stays away from. Jaska isn't the type to fight, just jump in his face and say boo and he'll be running. Which means he's quite easy to intimidate. He's utterly oblivious to the complexities of life and morality - Because screw that. He just wants to have some fun. Which goes without saying; he's quite oblivious to a few things. Which can be taken advantage of if someone knows what. Sometimes Jaska is utterly unaware of what's right and wrong. Not in the sociopathic way at all. He'll break something and utterly be oblivious to what he did was wrong. Stuff like that. Because of his power Jaska acts like a predator, in social situations and out. He stalks people like prey before approaching. Sometimes he's even often seen hunting actual prey. Even gruesomely killing it and devouring it - In front of people. It's all natural to him so he doesn't really think it's a taboo to do so. Meh. Haven't really played as a character this young before. Cut me a break. [b]Hobbies/Interests:[/b] Jaska likes playing video games, exploring, going out and having fun, meeting and talking to people, observing things, high up places. [b]Skills/Talents:[/b] I personally think it'd be stretching it to give a ten year any major skills, so l'll Jaska some realistic skills. Jaska is an expert explorer, and climber, often finding himself in places he shouldn't be. [b]Prized Possession:[/b] Jaska's prized possession pretty much changes weekly; right now it's his gold fish that he keeps in his room.

[b]Power:[/b] Jaska has two different forms. [i]Apex Predator.[/i] Jaska is a predator, plain and simple. The king of the beasts. His power has altered his body to give him all he needs to hunt even the strongest of creatures. The first ability of note is a passive one; the predator instinct. It's an instinctive trait that makes him the master of hunting and tracking - As long as he has prey. It gives him information that allows him to predict what the prey will do next, where he is going, and how to trap/catch them. Along with a secondary instinct that tells him if he's being hunted, watched, etc. This isn't the last of his abilities - He has a wide variety of other traits his power has gifted him with. Jaska has dense, razor-sharp claws, enhanced strength (He can lift up to two times his weight), razor sharp teeth, wings that allow flight, a prehensile tail, enhanced speed and agility, enhanced senses (hearing, sight/night-vision, and smell), minor regeneration, and camouflage (Along with the ability to change his skin color to anything within the color spectrum). [i]Inner Beast.[/i] Whenever Jaska hears the phrase "Little Devil" (Or a similar variation; there are more trigger phrases), or is seriously injured, it will trigger Jaska's transformation into a monster form. This form makes Jaska gradually grow to immense size, and gives him monstrous strength that'll make him a handful for most. However, the transformation is far from instant. He gradually transforms over time, and the more he transforms, the more powerful he'll get - Combat accelerates the transformation. Transformed; Jaska will have enhanced strength, enhanced regeneration, greater durability (Armored scales & Reinforced bones), and superior senses. All proportionate to how far he is into a transformation. Though he'll still have all of his Apex Predator abilities. Jaska will retain all traits of his Fire-Heart (Read below), and it will strengthen depending on how far he is on his transformation. His flames will get hotter and more destructive, creating one hell of a threat. When he enters this form, he'll revert to primal mental state, where he's controlled purely by impulse and instinctive, and driven by a genocidal rage. He'll throw reason and intelligence out of the window, and will basically turn into a violent and uncontrollable animal. Jaska will have no "friend or foe" mechanics and will try to kill just about everyone. In this state, he'll be immune to mind abilities (telepathy, and etc). Since there's barely any mind to access. After awhile Jaska will revert back to his normal form. The abilities below apply over both forms: [i]Fire Heart.[/i] Jaska possesses the Fire-heart. Similar to Gabe's previous power, Jaska has what is more-or-less, a tiny star that resides in his chest, which constantly generates immense amounts of heat. This naturally brings his body up a few notches. Fortunately, this gives him a complete immunity to all things heat, or else he would have died ages ago. The heat also assists with healing in a way, killing bacteria, diseases and other nasty things. A passive effect of this ability is that any fires get hotter, and more intense by his mere presence. Now the meat of this ability is his pryomancery. A form of which that is naturally a few notches above the regular variety. The flames he creates are hotter, brighter, and more intense than any natural fire. Even the smallest amount can make things uncomfortable. He can also control fire that was externally created, and bring it to the heat and intensity of the flames he generates. Naturally, he can do a few fire tricks such as fire-ball, fire-storms, and other fire-related carnage. He can also control heat to an extent, he can generate heat and manipulate the heat that his fire-heart naturally gives off. [b]Weaknesses/Limitations/Drawbacks:[/b] Jaska is primarily driven by his predator urges and instincts. They can be quite hard to resist at times, and may overwrite his other wants and needs. Jaska must satisfy this urge whenever possible, or else he'll get super distracted, and the urge will get greater and greater until it overwhelms him - Forcing him to just kill something. Which can include a human being if his willpower isn't enough. The predatory instinct also seeps into his thoughts. Intrusively making him think about how he can hurt people, and sometimes it's hard to resist these thoughts. Jaska also has a risk of devolving into a bestial-mindset, especially under high levels of stress/strain, scared, or when threatened. Effectively turning himself into the vicious animal he keeps locked up. Using his pryomancery makes this much worse, and sensing blood may overwhelm him. Jaska is very young and weak, mentally and physically outclassed by many of the older, more experienced, members of the cast in the mental and physical arena. He doesn't exactly have the [i]conscious[/i] will to kill and harm people. He can be easily intimidated by mostly anyone and will just flee from most threats of violence. He can also easily be tricked or manipulated by someone older. That out of the way, while in control of himself he's quite frail. Attacks can easily damage him, and while he can regenerate, he can't regenerate well enough to make a difference in fights. There is also a chance that he may heal a broken limb incorrectly if it hasn't been braced well, which will require the same limb to be broken again so he can heal it correctly. Jaska's super senses can be taken advantage of. They can be damaged if someone knows to take advantage of them. Bright, and flashing lights can blind him. Strong smells, and foul odors, can overload his sense of smell, and loud sounds can damage his hearing. He can go deaf if his hearing is damaged enough. His fingers being claws makes it difficult for him to hold objects and other things. Jaska's resistance to diseases and toxins also extends to medicine, which means that medicine won't help him should he require it. Jaska's camouflage requires him to go very slowly to allow his body to keep up, if he goes too fast he'll be visible until he stops. Then there's the usual weaknesses that turning invisible have (He can be heard/smelled, detected by an extra-sense, etc). Like you may have expected; Jaska can't control his transformations, nor can he control himself. Everyone, and everything, is a target once he transforms, and his main goal is to cause as much destruction as possible. He also really, [i]really,[/i] really doesn't like transforming at all. Because it's utter hell. He sees and know everything he does when he transforms, and experiences the horror to the very last second. It causes him great emotional and mental strain, and because of it, he has some mental scars. Thus saying that he [i]really[/i] doesn't like talking about it is an understatement. Jaska's beast form is the weakest when he first transforms. So the best time to fight him is when he first transforms. Jaska's armoring is from head-to-toe, however, his joints are exposed so he'd retain some form of mobility. The more Jaska transforms, the bigger and slower he'll get. The only ways to get him out of beast mode is to defeat him, restrain him, wait until he tires himself out, or say the counter phrase. Once he's out of the form, he'll fall into a short coma and will be physically and emotionally exhausted. If the phrase "Rest little angel" is said by a female, in a soothing voice, he'll immediately stop his transformations and revert back to human form. But it must be a feminine voice. Though, no one knows this just yet. The Fire Heart has it's own set of weaknesses as well. For starters, Jaska's weakness is the cold and water. You see, the Fire-heart needs to be constantly hot. Water in contact with his skin cools down the fire-heart. If he's submerged in cold water then the fire-heart will extinguish in seconds. While the Fire-heart is extinguished, Jaska's body will be insanely weak. His skin will turn to a pale-blue color, he'll be physically exhausted, his senses will be dulled, his healing will slow, and he'll be extra vulnerable to the cold. Which can kill him if he's not tended to immediately. While in beast form, however, extinguishing the fire-heart will immediately cause him to revert right back. A way to quicken the reawakening of his fire heart is to expose him to heat and flames. Jaska is in no way immune to the byproducts of fire, specifically smoke, he can still suffer negative effects of smoke inhalation. He could burn off his own clothes, which, while it doesn't bother him, is something that the people around him don't want to see. The fires and heat he creates has an unintended side-effect on his mental state. It excites him, kicks his fight-or-flight responses into overdrive, and makes him give into his violent instincts. He'll find himself acting more violently and rash than he normally does, he very well may find himself going overboard and creating a fire storm to harm people. It more or less will make him accidentally devolve into the same bestial mindset I mentioned before. Naturally, Jaska doesn't like this one bit. [u][b]Other:[/b][/u][/hider] [hider=Jake Valos (RP: Academy 218 ver. 2)][u][b]Basic Information[/b][/u] [b]Name:[/b] [i]Jake Vin of the Valos Lineage[/i] [b]Nickname/Alias/Etc:[/b] [i]The Master Illusionist, Mr Fancy[/i] [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Age:[/b] 17 [b]Height:[/b] 5'9 [b]Weight:[/b] 132 [b]Status:[/b] New Student [b][u]Appearance[/u][/b] [b]Hair Color:[/b] Black [b]Eye Color:[/b] Brown [b]Ethnicity:[/b] Brazilian [b]Physical Appearance:[/b] Jake is a very attractive boy. He has a slight-feminine feel about his appearance and he does a look a little girly. Nothing that'd classify him as Androgynous. What Jake really looks like is a weakling. He's very skinny, like he does very little to no physical exercise. The kind of person that can't lift weights. Sometimes people get the nerd-vibe from him too. Jake is quite slim, very skinny, with little to no visible muscles or body-fat on him. Which is good since he doesn't want to be fat. His shoulders are a little wide, though. Jake is an inch under the average height (5'9), and is quite lightweight (132 lb). Jake is Brazilian, with his skin being a light-brown color. It's obvious that he's foreign from his skin color and facial features. His skin has a few scars, moles, zits and various other imperfections, but aren't that noticeable. Other than a facial scar he has on his left cheek. It's a thin, red slashing scar that starts under his eye and goes down his cheek. It's from a bet. A good one. Jake has a rectangle shaped head. Jake's facial features are obviously foreign, and squared. Jake has a large, yet bulky, chin. With a sharp, but small, jawline. His eyes are medium sized, are a not-too-notable brown color, and usually have a bored look in them. Jake's ears are very small, point inwards, and are a little pointy at the tip. One thing people will always notice about Jake is that he's well groomed, and has great hygiene. Keeping himself clean at all times, everything really. Jake's hair is a black color, ear-length, and is straight. He keeps it in a neatly slicked back style. Jake has a tattoo on his body, which is also because of a bet. It's a black-ink tattoo that says [i]MADE IN HEAVEN[/i]. It's located on his shoulder. [b]Attire:[/b] Because of how Jake dresses, it makes it obvious that he's rich. He constantly wears a fancy, flashy attire. Often getting all dressed up for the wrong occasion. Sometimes people get the impression that he's trying too hard, or over compensating for something. Jake wears suits, overcoats, anything as long as it's expensive. Though, he's seen wearing a suit fairly often. On the island, it's pretty chilly. So he tends to wear a coat. Sometimes he'll keep his coat slung over his shoulders - With his arms not in the sleeve, and his sleeves are flapping around. Usually hanging out of his coat/suit is the chain of his treasured pocket-watch. This pocket-watch is golden, and has an intricate, well-made, design. It's [i]very[/i] important to him. If he loses it, he'll absolutely lose his sh*t. Jake needs glasses to see. He wears large, wide, thin-framed, oval-shaped glasses. [b][u]Personality[/u][/b] [b]Outward & Innate Personality:[/b] A very calm and charismatic teen. For his age, Jake is quite mature and logical. Rarely acting childish unless pushed to it, and always uses his head. He speaks to everyone with kindness, politeness, and respect. He can come off as over-polite, however. Jake is quite moral, and follows the rules. He'll rarely consider doing anything that'd betray this. While he tries his best to be nice; Jake can sometimes come off as arrogant, or egotistical. He doesn't do it on purpose, though, and it only happens sometimes. Plus, he has a habit of overstepping boundaries and going too far - Right when he has the best of intentions. He'll feel a bit of remorse, and try his best not to do it again. Jake can be quite untrusting of some people. Being quite prejudice when it comes to them. He has a fear of being taken advantage of and used as a tool - Since that's something that he [i]really[/i] dislikes. So he's a little paranoid when it comes to some people, and it can be more detrimental than helpful. He's a bit endearing, he has to put of with plenty of things that irritate him or he disapproves of. He's not the type to b*tch about it, though, he'll suck it up. That's another thing, he can lack back-bone sometimes. He'll take things that he should stand up for. Jake likes to be the voice of reason whenever in a group. Trying his best to be the one that talks the group out of something rash or stupid. Sometimes he's listened to, other times have been naught. Thus he's just the kind of person who'd break up fights and heated situations, doing whatever it takes to accomplish this goal. While Jake isn't a violent person, if there was no other way, he'll have no problem with resorting to it. Jake can be quite clever when it comes to it. Stuff like finding loop-holes in deals, figuring out things fast, and guessing motives quite well. He mostly likes to find himself spot-on, but he can make mistakes. On top of that, he's quite adept at lying and tricking people. Jake is Bisexual. [b]Hobbies/Interests:[/b] Jake is interested in the oriental. Not just women, he likes Asian food, decorations, and etc. Jake is also a fan of instruments, and likes to hang around people who know how to play them. Jake also likes antiques. [b]Skills/Talents:[/b] A few. Jake has an interest in cooking, thus he's spent a bit of his free-time practicing, and trying to perfect the art. Over time, he's become a very good cook and is acquainted with many cooking terms. Capable of making some pretty good meals. Jake knows how to play the piano quite well. He's no Ray-Charles, but damn he'll be if he practices. He also knows a bit about computers, and can put one together, and take one apart if he was given the opportunity. Jake is also fairly good at social skills, and being a peace maker. Capable of easily talking people down. In addition, Jake is a speaker of Portuguese, Chinese and Spanish. He isn't a master at Chinese, nor Spanish, but he's fluent in Portuguese, he speaks it like it's his first language. [b]Prized Possession:[/b] Jake's pocket-watch.

Too bad she was close to getting ripped to shreds..."[/i] | [b][u]Abilities[/u][/b] [b]Power Class:[/b] Cerebral 6 [b]Power:[/b] [i]Pseudo-Existent Illusions.[/i] Jake is [i]the[/i] Master-Illusionist. Jake has the power to craft realistic and complex illusions just by thinking about it. He can craft just about anything his mind and imagination can produce through his illusions. These illusions aren't just your average trick of the mind, or hologram, they can be seen, felt, smelt, tasted and heard. They manifest in reality, instead of the mind. In order words, they're real as anything else. Mental defenses will not allow anyone to see through them, and they will appear in technology (Such as cameras). If Jake puts his mind to it, to say the least, they are very hard to tell from reality, and will require advanced examination to even tell if it's real or not. There are a few ways to destroy his illusions, otherwise only Jake can dispell them. Jake can do quite a bit with his illusions, and he's very adept with his ability. Now, Jake can make his illusions intangible or solid, with several levels of transparency. With his solid illusions having the same durability as what they're replicating. An illusory table would break under the same pressure a real one would. What his illusions cannot do is [i]directly[/i] interact with the real world, nor can they transfer force. An illusion punching someone would have zero effect on them. Jake can freely apply any of the five senses to his illusions. He has absolute freedom here, so he could make an illusory rock smell like the sewer, taste like ice-cream, feel like leather, and sound like a cat meowing. Crazy stuff like that. Jake can use his illusions to turn anything invisible - Usually himself. [b]Weaknesses/Limitations/Drawbacks:[/b] There are several ways to see through his illusions - Alternatively destroy them. Energy is the opposition to his illusion. They fade away the moment energy comes in contact with it. It can be any kind of energy, so most Meta-humans can destroy his illusions with ease. Though energy has to be of high intensity to destroy his illusions. His ability is focus-based, break his focus, even for a second, and all the illusions will disappear. While Jake has a high level of skill with his illusions, it takes a effort with the larger, more complex illusions. Imbuing his illusions with multiple senses can be quite a task. Making a large amount of illusions can also strain him. To the point of unconsciousness. He will get better at this as the RP goes along. No matter what Jake creates, his illusions cannot cause people harm, nor can they directly interact with the real world. His power has a direct effect on Jake's mentality. With a power like his, how can he be entirely sure that [i]everything[/i] is real? He sometimes gets the feeling that some things aren't real, and just illusions. Sometimes without a bit of reassurance, he can get a little erratic when it comes to it. Which is why he has his pocket-watch. It's like a Totem Pole from Inception. If he has it, and it's working, then all is well. Without his pocket-watch... Well... [b][u]Other:[/u][/b] Despite near-mastering his ability, Jake was sent to the Academy to accompany his sister, Gabriela, to make sure that she doesn't do anything stupid (Details in her sheet).[/hider] [hider=James Blackmore (RP: The H.A.N.D.)][center] [img]http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/x/handsome-dark-haired-male-goatee-beard-12439447.jpg[/img] [b][Male | 28 | (Cata) | Role within the team][/b][/center] [indent][b]James "Baron" Blackmore[/b] is a recent recruit into H.A.N.D. He is a veteran of WWI as a British Man, and has some experience flying planes. He isn't exactly the most trusted member of the organization due to his temper, and attitude. However, despite this, James is one the more dedicated agents of H.A.N.D. He is a loyal and by the books man. He follows order, but he isn't needlessly cruel. He doesn't commit war crimes for fun, nor is he soft enough to spare someone who needs to be killed. Off duty, James is a proud man, he has a short temper, and is quite hard to hold back once he gets started. He's rather cocky, and arrogant, though it's not as blatant as his other personalities traits. He keeps it in check, and usually only lets a few comments slip. This all stems from his childhood of being an athletic trouble maker that he never quite grew out of. He doesn't hesitate to fight if pushed. It's something that just gets his blood rushing, and he's quite the adrenaline junkie. He'll do anything to get that feeling. Which is why his superiors don't exactly trust him and delegate him to simple roles. Since his attitudes tends to ruin their more diplomatic endeavors. James doesn't really get attached to people anymore, since all the people he meets are operatives under H.A.N.D. He doesn't think too highly of most of them, calling them tools of the government, and disposable. While making himself to be more than what he really is. In terms of morality, James is a true neutral. He isn't out to help the world, nor is he out to destroy it. He's just following orders and doing his job. Nothing more, nothing less.[/indent] [center][youtube]NFjE5A4UAJI[/youtube][/center] [b]Traits and Abilities[/b] [indent] [i]Power Replication.[/i] James is a Cata mutant that specializes in the replication of Pre, Bolt, and Cat(a) powers. With simple skin-to-skin contact with a mutant, he can copy their abilities and add them to his own power pool for an indefinite amount of time. However, depending on how long the contact is dictates how much of the power he replicates. For example, say if he shook a telepath's hand for a few seconds, he would only be able to read thoughts. If he brushed up against a speedster he would only get a slight speed boost. Or, after an extended hold with a pryomancer, he can shoot and control fire on the same level as they can. If he doesn't copy all of an ability, James will be able to fill in the blanks by coming in contact with them again. He can do this to any power in the, however, he is unable to copy physical traits of those with a higher genetic potential. Focusing more on the fancy stuff like pryomancery, mind reading, and so on. James can only use one power at a time. Below are replicated abilities: -[i]Cyromancery.[/i] James's current replicated ability. It's pretty simple, James has the ability to freeze objects and manipulate ice in general. He can mold ice into constructs with without effort in general. A little trick he came up with was dropping the air temperature to freezing levels. [i]RFC Training.[/i] Before joining H.A.N.D. James served the British Royal Flying Corps (Now the Royal Air Force) as a fighter pilot. Having piloted a Bristol F.2 Fighter during the war. He was what they called an ace during WWI, credited with over twenty victories in the sky. He's been trained in hand to hand, and how to use guns too. [/indent] [b]H.A.N.D. Status[/b] [indent] James was a recent recruit into H.A.N.D. after leaving the Royal Flying Corps several years back. He has served in a few missions to control the sudden outbreak of mutants. [/indent] [b]History[/b] (Prepare for subpar like no other! I suck ass at backstories!) [indent] James Blackmore was born into the Blackmore Family, a near-ancient English bloodline that has existed since the 1800's. This family was exclusive to the British Isles. The family has existed for centuries, and not much is known about them these days other than their traditions and their code of honor. That said, what they don't know is that they have Pre-mutant ancestors that had the ability to mimic other abilities. They had died out long before the Blackmore family came into existence, but their bloodline continued. That said, James had a large family of two brothers, Grant and Richard Blackmore, and one sister, Fiona Blackmore, a father, William Blackmore, and mother, Jane Blackmore. His father had provided his family with different jobs worked in the schools. While his mother was a artist. James had a relatively normal childhood growing up in Coventry, England. He didn't excel in Academics, instead opting for athletics. Already from a young age he was rash, impulsive, and fiery. Whenever he went to school, he was often sent back home for starting fights with other students. Which was a worrying habit, James's parents did all they could to discipline their child, but it never seemed to work. James on the other hand felt like he was alone in the world, and has done nothing for him, so he didn't owe it squat. When alone he usually looked to the skies. Dreaming for the days when he could explore the world and be truly free. The only way he could think of was joining the air force. Other than that, James's childhood wasn't relatively notable other than his temper getting worse. He still got into fights on a semi-regular basis, and he was failing his classes. It had reached a boiling point when he was arrested in his late teens after assaulting another man. His parents had absolutely enough of their son's rash and violent behavior. They had one choice, they enlisted him in the British Army and left him to handle himself. Which James found as a brand new opportunity. He signed up for the Royal Flying Corps and began training, learning that it was a chance to become the pilot he always dreamed of. Which was hard given his attitude. James especially was pushed to his limits due to his brash attitude, but he got the discipline that his parents could never give him - it was helped by the fact that he really wanted to become a pilot in the RFC. It took years of training, but he finally became a pilot. Just in time too, tensions were rising all over Europe was World War 1 grew closer, and once it began, Marcus was assigned to France under the British Expeditionary Force. There, James has seen a little bit of action, fighting in the Battle of Mons, and seeing the RFC gain it's first victories. Since then, James was assigned as a fighter, and he also supported the ground forces when assigned. Under the RFC, he fought in many battles. The Battle of Somme, the Battle of Arras, and the Battle of Cambrai. Battle after battle, James never stopped flying. He was determined to win the war for Britain, and the world. There were days he didn't sleep, and just kept flying. However, on November 11th, 1918, the war finally ended and his journey finally was complete. James felt fulfilled, but changed. The war was something else, something he was never prepared for. He wondered if it was even worth fulfilling his dreams anymore. Worst of all, when he returned home, he learned that his brothers Grant and Richard, were killed during a German bombing on Britain. After the war had ended, James decided to leave Britain behind and head to greener pastures. A humbled new man. James went to America, merely because his family had some ties to the country and he wanted to try a new country for a fresh start. He went to New York City, since he heard some stories about the city. He got an apartment, then he lived as a Butcher for a few years, living an empty life shell-shocked by what he saw during the war. However, H.A.N.D. had approached him, due to his excellent service in the Royal Flying Corps. An organization that wants to create super soldiers. James was hesitant at first, but he had nothing else to live for at the moment, so he accepted it without a second thought. He received the serum and... nothing happened. He thought that he was simply incompatible with the serum. James was furious, feeling like his time was wasted. He was ready to barge out the room when he was stopped by a H.A.N.D agent with cyromancery. James punched the agent square in the face and something interesting happened, upon impact, James had exerted a bit of cyromancery of his own. That was when he realized that the serum worked after all... Before being detained temporarily. They worked out the details and James decided to stick with H.A.N.D after all.

His signs of age show in his wrinkles, and his tired expression. Still, he looks surprisingly good for his age. He's good-looking, but age has caught up to him and he's no where near as good as he was when he was twenty years younger. He is thin, lean, and somewhat muscular, in the way that implies he does a little bit of work. However, with his thin frame, and the kind of clothing he wears. He stands one inch below the standard male age, and weighs around one-hundred and fifty pounds. Jason's racial identity is Hispanic, but predominantly Brazilian. His skin is a darker caramel color, and is no where perfect. He has wrinkles, scars, and more scars. Jason's body is battered with an variety of scars, from fights he got into during his youth. Only one scar has managed to touch his face. A vertical scar that is over his right eye, examination will prove that it was from a knife. As it's been stated before, Jason is good looking in the facial department, he has that weathered old look that has an aura of gruff. He has a circle-shaped head, and smooth and rounded facial features. He has a large, squared and bulky chin, and a sharp jawline. He has plump cheeks, and relatively large cheekbones. His eyes are a brown color, and are medium sized with not much notable about them. He has large, high-profile, ears, that are pretty round. His nose is medium sized as well, but pretty crooked, implying it got broken a lot. Jason doesn't have much of a hairstyle. He keeps his hair shaved short. [b]Attire:[/b] Jason's style is a little tricky. He dons a mixture of a businessman and a cowboy. He wears trench coats, cowboy hats and fedoras, suits, and other fancy attire. One thing is for certain is that he gets the best clothes. It's very high profile and mysterious. When he's on more causal occasions, he wears a regular suit. However, he wears the kind of clothes that would hide a gun. [b][u]Personality[/u][/b] [b]Outward & Innate Personality:[/b] A very charismatic and savvy man. When people speak to him, they get the impression that he's a very sociable man, always cracking jokes and being the level-headed one. Jason always knows what to say to get people on his side, or talk someone out of something he doesn't approve of. He never treats anyone unfairly who doesn't deserve it, and while he's wealthy, he rarely sees anyone below him. He's a little arrogant and egotistical, but he keeps it all in check, and doesn't let it get the best of him. He like to have fun and enjoy his wealth, even though someone his age shouldn't have that mindset anymore. However, when the situation calls for it, he can be a very serious man, that is extremely frightening once pushed. He's slow to anger, but is hard to hold back once anger. Jason is a very practical man, and his main concerns are himself, his wealth, and the Valos family. Everything else is unimportant to him. That said he's not above doing anything necessary to maintain those three things. Killing, manipulation, you get the idea. However, he still has morality and a conscious. He won't be doing any dog kicking if he can avoid it. He's very loyal to the people who earn it, and will do all he can to help them. His sex drive compels him to go bed good looking women when he gets the urge. Cheating on his wife, Gabrielle, like it's nothing. He knows what to do to make sure she doesn't find out. However, he does love her with all his heart, and would do anything for her. [b]Hobbies/Interests:[/b] Jason has an interest in guns. His favorite being pistols and revolvers. He doesn't know why, but guns are so cool to him. So much that he decided to start his own gun collection, and learn how to use guns. Jason loves sports like soccer and baseball, despite the fact he never played it once in his life. However, Jason's biggest love will always be the ladies. [b]Skills/Talents:[/b] Now this is where the interesting part comes: people have realized that Jason has a ridiculously wide range of skills. Like the moment he picks up something, he uses it like an expert. Even things that nobody who lived a life he has should even be able to. Shooting rifles, fixing leaks, even saying the best things to bed a lady. [b]Prized Possession:[/b] A gold plated Smith & Wesson 500. [b]Quote(s):[/b] [i]"Hmph, I may be top dog, have all the money and the women in the world, but I still go through the same problems you do, pal."[/i] [u][b]Relationships[/b][/u] [b]Family:[/b] Jason is the patriarch of the Valos family. [list] [*]Father/Mother - Unknown [*]Wife - Gabrielle Valos [*]Son - Jake Valos [*]Son - Joshua [*]Son - Jaska Valos [*]Son - Johnathon Valos [*]Daughter - Veronica Valos [*]Daughter - Ivete Valos [*]Daughter - Gabriela Valos [/list] [b]Friends:[/b] N/A (Not important, for now) [b]Enemies:[/b] A few. They're either irrelevant, or aren't worth mentioning. However, Jason has his eyes on a Meta-human gang leader that just rolled into town. [b]Lovers:[/b] More than he can count, really. Jason has, since the moment he went through puberty, chased women. So he has had a few girlfriends, wives, etc. They all fell through for their own reasons. Jason's current wife is Gabrielle Valos. [b]Marital Status:[/b] Married [b][u]Abilities[/u][/b] [b]Power Class:[/b] Cerebral/Extra-Sensory [b]Power:[/b] [i]Cerebral Puzzle-Solving.[/i] Jason has quite a useful, but unorthodox, ability. Jason's power is hard to explain, but I'll try my best. Basically his power instinctively and intuitively gives him step by step instructions on how to fulfill a set goal he has in mind. Think of it like a puzzle, he has the pieces, but his power tells him how to put it together. That said, his power has a quite range of capabilities. Fighting, fixing things, and the uses are endless. It also gives him a little boost by altering his body (And mind) to help him with his goal. Such as giving him a boost in agility to dodge an attack, or a bit more preciseness to avoid screwing up defusing a bomb. Finally, his power gives him instinctive information about his goal. In a similar manner to ESP. [b]Weaknesses/Limitations/Drawbacks:[/b] While Jason has an extremely powerful ability, it does come with it's drawbacks. His power gives him step by step instructions, that he must follow to continue, and he cannot "skip" a step. So the choice of action his power gives him may not be the most efficient, practical, or humane. Which means that if he disapproves of something, he's going have to come up with a solution on his own. His power also doesn't give him an instant solution to say, a complex problem. He has to work his way up to the top. Though, he can instantly solve simple problem, but he probably wouldn't even need his power, heh. However, if there's a unexpected variable in the plans his power is thrown out of whack. He'll need a few minutes to get his power together before it gives him advice. One major problem with his power is that it doesn't work too well with real living people. It can't give him exactly what he needs to say to accomplish his goal when it comes to them, it'll only give him an idea, and there's a chance he'll screw it up. So he can't say exactly what is needed to stop a man from committing suicide, or bed a lady, but he'll get an idea. Other extra-sensory/cerebral Meta-human cancel out his ability. [b][u]Other:[/u][/b] Jason has a collection of guns, he doesn't use them. However, when he's out on the streets, he's armed with two Smith & Wesson .44 Magnums. He keeps them hidden in his coat.[/hider] [hider=Joshua Valos (RP: N/A)]Name: [color=#33ffff]Joshua Flyy of the Valos Lineage (Referred to as, Wolfwood)[/color] Age: 23 Nationality: Brazilian and Japanese Height: 6'2 Weight: 174 Appearance: Wolfwood has a bit of a nerd vibe when people look at him.

Many that encounter him will immediately notice that he is quite the gruff person. Emanating an insanely off-putting aura of aggression and viciousness; he looks quite shady, and been in way too many fights to count. Like someone you'd see in the movies as the shady guy, bad-guy or hired muscle. He's not one you'd want to meet in a dark ally. Notably, the other thing that people immediately notice is that he has a monstrous claw-scar on his face. Like a beast slashed his face open. This scar starts on the right-side of his face, at his hair-line. With three of the "claw points" going down his face, past his eye (Which has, thankfully, been left intact) then down his cheek all the way to his neck. Another scar goes down his nose, through his lips and teeth, and ends on his chin. The last claw-point goes down his face not too far away from his ear, but ends at the start of his neck like the others. If one were to observe him without any clothes, they would notice that Johnny's being is covered in heaving bruising and scars. His body has plenty of bullet, and blade scars. One notable scar is one on his shoulder, similar to the one on his face (Claw scar). This scar starts on his shoulder and goes down his chest. That out of the way Johnny is a man in shape. A man in his "career" absolutely needs to be. He's muscular, no where near body-builder, enough to impress most ladies if he removes his shirt (They'll be less than impress once this see his face). His legs are also very muscular due to all the running he does. Johnny's body is also shapely in the nice way. With broad-shoulders and a wide chest. He's average heighted, being 5'11, and his weight is exact given his muscles. Johnny's skin is a delicious light-caramel color - Because his mixed Brazilian and Caucasian descents. Because of the many aforementioned scars and bruises, his skin is less than perfect. Johnny also has a few tattoos on his body, hidden under his clothing. On his chest, Johnny has a black, complex tattoo of several different kinds of flowers, with black flames integrated into it's design. On the base of his neck he has a large tattoo of a rose flower, which is visible depending on what he's wearing. Aside from all the scars Johnny has, he is quite attractive, on par with male models. His good looks inherited from his Father. Johnny's head is wide and rectangle-shaped, with his facial features being heavily squared, pronounced, and well-defined. He has a large, and bulky chin, one that has a cleft in between it. His ears are medium-sized, and thin, not too notable, they have a subtle point at the very top. His nose is quite small, with a long bridge and thin nostrils. He has another subtle point at the very tip of it. His cheeks are quite flat, and lack the roundness that most other cheeks would. His lips are wide full for a male, but they're thin and small. He usually keeps them tucked in. Inherited from his mother is his eyes. His eyes are medium sized, pointed at the tips, and have a beautiful shade of ocean blue color. His eyes are easily the best looking eyes on the entire planet! Usually Johnny's facial expression is either a scowl, plaintive bored look, or a arrogant smirk. Johnny's hair is kept in a neatly slicked back style. It is straight and is neck length. It's a very black color and very well groomed. [b]Attire:[/b] Johnny's attire trades out style and flashiness for practicality. Johnny usually wears the attire that the generic mysterious stranger-type character (That you'd see in the movies) would. He usually wears a large dark-brown long-coat - That's way too damaged to be worn stylishly. That does it's job in concealing a great deal of Johnny's body. The good thing about his long-coat is that it conceals things that he'd be wearing under. For example, Johnny is always seen wearing a special belt - One that has gun-holsters on both sides, and a space to put a knife. Under it, he'll wear just about anything, but sometimes he's seen wearing either a matching brown outfit, or a brown suit. Johnny is always seen wears a stylish wide-brimmed fedora hat, one that looks less like a fedora and more like a cowboy hat. Johnny is also seen wearing brown leather gloves over his hands. Johnny also wears bulky and worn-out combat boots - Which are heavily damaged and worn out from all the running, and ass kicking Johnny does. Johnny also tends to wear sunglasses of any type, mostly aviator. He is always seen walking around with a pimp-like cane. This cane is a wooden cane that is painted jet black, with a golden ring near the top. At the tip of this cane is basically a stature of Cobra, made out of solid gold. However, there's more to this cane than most see. With one twist and a pull; a concealed and expertly crafted ceramic sword will be revealed. On the side of this side [i]BLOOD SHED[/i] is engraved. [b][u]Personality[/u][/b] [b]Outward & Innate Personality:[/b] Not the most pleasant person on the planet, personality wise. Many call him a horrible human being, and an utter monster. His appearance does do a great deal at showing off who Johnny really is on the inside. He is a cold and ruthless human being who is just as capable of brutality as he is to shake someone's hand. He is a human being who's been harden by experience. Because of this, he is used to say, the death of a friend, or someone emotional. In fact, he doesn't really care at all about any of this. He'll remain indifferent as ever. Johnny is an utter sociopath. Many may quickly discover that he has a blatant disregard for other people, and doesn't have a shred of empathy. He's capable of immense brutality and won't think any of it afterwards. Johnny barely has any morals at all, as you may have guessed. He only does things that would benefit him, and if it doesn't; he won't do it. He is just as capable of violence as he is violence - It all depends on his motives, and what he wishes to gain. Which makes life much easier in his eyes. Johnny is quite aggressive, never afraid to escalate things to violence. However, he uses his head, and rarely fights any battles that aren't worth it. When Johnny does fight; many will see the person he really is. He's a killer, and has put many in the grave - Nor is he afraid to add a few more to that list.There are few he will not kill once he sets his sights on them, children, woman and clowns. He's not a sadistic monster that'll kill everyone in his sights, he only really kills those that are hell-bent in standing in his way. Johnny doesn't exactly have the best social skills on the planet. He is his own brand of nice, until provoked/annoyed/irritated, then he's a bit of an asshole. And it's quite easy to get on his bad side. Johnny isn't the type to form true relationships and emotional bonds. He only sees people that he keeps around as tools, or allies - Not friends. And he's not afraid to dump them the moment they start to seem inconvenient. Then other times, he won't even associate with them if they're useless, or not worth keeping around. To say the least, he doesn't respect people, regardless of what they think, and is quite critical of then - Though, most of the time he keeps it to himself. There are few people that he does respect, and they're in the few. When Johnny speaks, he usually contributes his own sarcastic, and arrogant comments. Johnny is quite the egotistical arrogant smart-ass. Who tends to act like he's better than everyone and that everyone he doesn't respect is below him. Which can betray the person he really is, and let people under-estimate him. Beneath it all; he's quite dark, cold, ruthless, and cynical. There is one trait about Johnny that he'll never abandon; is that he displays great situational intelligence, and awareness. He's also fairly observant. The first thing he does whenever he enters a room is give it a good look, and give the people in it an ever better look. Constantly deducing who could and couldn't be a threat to him, and who could actually be helpful. While Johnny is cynical, he is also very good at guessing people's true motives - With 50% accuracy. He almost never takes things at face-value and always assumes there's a motive under the motive [b]Hobbies/Interests:[/b] Not too many anymore. Johnny does still like one thing, and that is anything you'd see in a Casino. Poker, Blackjack, Craps. It's the one game that Johnny likes the play. He's also an expert when it comes to poker. [b]Skills/Talents:[/b] Experience is the best teacher of them all, Johnny has, in other words, lived as a vicious child-soldier. While he doesn't have any formal training, he's self-trained. That out of the way, Johnny's a very good fighter, and perfect with a gun. He knows how to use pistols quite well - But he prefers using good old fashion revolvers (Hence his nickname). For flash, Johnny has perfected the art of gun-twirling, and uses it quite often to impress (and intimidate) people. He has a very good aim, and is quite accurate. Johnny also knows how to use knives for a silent, and painful, take-down of a foe - Or a bloody spectacle. Johnny's not too bad at hand to hand either. Being trained at kick-boxing at an earlier age, and has his own fighting style that usually consists of kicking. His combat skills, mixed with his powers, makes him quite a threat in fights. Other than that, Johnny is quite observant, few details rarely escape his eye. He also has first-hand experience in things that most people aren't. Such as serial-killers, psychopaths, the mafia. Johnny also knows how to speak fluent Portuguese, despite having gone to Brazil once. [b]Prized Possession:[/b] Johnny's cane, aptly named Bloodshed. [b]Quotes:[/b] [i]"Ah, let me tell you something, I'm definiately not like your average twenty-something. I'm something that, people like you, are afraid of. The person that always make you keep an eye on them... Even if you don't think that yet - Oh boy, you will soon...."[/i] [u][b]Relationships[/b][/u] [b]Family:[/b] The Valos family.

[b]Enemies:[/b] Plenty of people. Everywhere he goes, enemies will follow, and he'll find some inane way to make some new ones. [b]Lovers:[/b] Johnny has gotten a few hookups in the past, none of them became anything more meaningful than a quick hump and dump. [b]Marital Status:[/b] Single [b][u]Abilities[/u][/b] [b]Power Class:[/b] Cerebral (Main), Energy, and Super-System [b]Power:[/b] [i]Negative Empath.[/i] Johnny is fueled by a special psychic-energy given off by people's emotions known as Emotional-Energy. Namely people's negative emotions. People's anger, fear, doubt, sadness... Any of that. He gets powered by said emotions and uses it to super-power himself. The more negativity going on around him, the stronger Johnny gets - And he can get [i]quite[/i] powerful. Johnny can also absorb Residual Emotional-Energy, which is Emotional energy of past negativity that rests in people, by touch. He mainly uses the Negative Emotions of other people - But he can utilize his own Negative-Emotions. Johnny uses Emotional-energy for his power, which goes down two different paths: [i]Armament.[/i] The Armament path allows Johnny to weaponize Emotional Energy. For starters, it allows Johnny to transform himself, using the energy to infuse his body. His skin will be coated in a dim-white light, with vertical lines of varying colors pulsing across his body. Any objects, and clothes, that Johnny has on him will be incorporated into the transformation. Transformed, his body will be enhanced in many ways. He'll be very, very fast. Being able to move at blinding speeds, and attack foes with such speed that his attacks are near-impossible to dodge. Mobility is Johnny's strong-suit in this case, he'll be able to cover several stories in one leap. Johnny's reflexes/reaction-timing, muscle control, and agility will be brought up a few notches too. Next, in this state, Johnny's durability will be greatly enhanced. His body will be shock resistant, heat-resistant, and non-conductive. Allowing him to take even the strongest of all hits and barely flinch. In this state, Johnny doesn't feel any pain. Although, he's not immune/resistant to stuff like acids, poisons and etc. The degree of enhancements he receives is roughly proportionate to how much Negative Emotions is going on around him. He could go from powerful, to barely better than the average human. Johnny can also extend his durability and speed to objects and people he's touching. Which is how his clothes are incorporated into his transformation. By touching an object/person, they'll start to glow like Johnny does, and get a speed and durability increase as long as Johnny is touching them. It also allows him to make better throwing weapons. He usually enhances his cane-sword combo to help him in fights. Johnny can also fire off a small marble-like orb of Emotional-Energy surrounded by a blood-red plasma, known as the Devil's Kill. This orb can be fired off from his fingers - But Johnny likes to make a finger-gun when he does so. This orb does blunt damage, and burning damage to Johnny's enemies. The Devil Kiss travel quite fast, not on par with bullets, but still rather fast. [i]Essence.[/i] Control and Access to the very essence of Emotional-Energy. The Essence branch covers the mental/emotional aspect of Johnny's ability. The most obvious part of Johnny's ability is that he's connected to people's emotions and can sense them - Knowing all their feelings, motives and emotions to a sub-conscious level. Being able to easily read people like a card. He's more connected to the negative side of emotions however. He can sense people's emotions at a distance, at will. Pinpointing their exact location, and also tells him what their emotion is. This allows him to easily track people. Johnny also has a form of telepathy. Which is a more basic and rudimentary form of telepathy that doesn't allow him to "read" minds. With a bit of focus, he can learn exactly what's making people feel a specific emotion. A brief image, or a tiny little flashback that provides Johnny with a glimpse, or a very good hint. This allows insight into people and how to get to know them better - When people's feelings are much more complex, however, he may have a problem. The Essence branch of Johnny's power makes it near-impossible to lie to him. There are quite a few ways that Johnny can enhance his ability. First of which, he can control his Devil Kisses to an extent. Such as causing them to curb mid-flight and ricochet off solid objects to head towards his targets. Next Johnny can learn how to flash step, turn intangible for a few moments, and fire blasts of Emotional Energy. As well as deepen his connection to emotions in terms of essence. Such as learning how to leave behind an "emotional-imprint" on an object. Then he can learn how to read someone's entire Emotional-history to the day they were born. With images accompanying the information. [b]Weaknesses/Limitations/Drawbacks:[/b] The very opposite to Negative Emotions is poison to Johnny. People feeling positive emotions, will weaken his abilities proportionate to how much positivity they're feeling. Positive emotions tend to overwhelm him in general as well. Johnny can be knocked unconscious if a large group of people are all feeling a positive emotion. Which can be a serious problem if someone knows how to exploit it. He also needs a constant source of fuel for his abilities or it'll make him weak. Johnny's ability require control of his own emotions to be used properly. Having an emotional imbalance can cause his power level to fluctuate and weaken. Johnny feeling a positive emotion himself will also weaken his power greatly. Johnny is weak against mental attacks. Telepaths can easily access his mind and attack him mentally with ease. His ability is so weak against telepathy that even someone reading his mind will cause him a head-ache and disrupt his power. [b][u]Other:[/u][/b] Johnny is a super-human thug for hire operating in New Orleans. Basically working for anyone who pays him the most. Recently, he's pissed off all the wrong people, and decided to use that invitation to the academy he's received earlier to hide out there until things cool off.[/hider] [hider=Johnny Valos (RP: Othergrounds)][u][b]Basic Information[/b][/u] [b]Name:[/b] [i]Johnathon Kin of the Valos Lineage[/i] [b]Nicknames:[/b] [i]Johnny[/i], [i]The King of the Devils[/i] [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Age:[/b] 19 [b]Height:[/b] 5'10 [b]Weight:[/b] 175 [b][u]Appearance[/u][/b] [b]Hair Color:[/b] Black [b]Eye Color:[/b] Blue [b]Nationality:[/b] Brazilian/Italian [b]Physical Appearance:[/b] Johnny is a relatively good looking young man. He has an average height standing at around 5'10 feet tall exactly, and weighs 175 pounds. He has a very thin build--- little muscles or body fat on him. Johnny has a wide chest--- not in the muscular sense, his chest is simply wide. He's a boy of Brazilian and Italian descents as his skin is a light caramel, and he's really proud of his Brazilian heritage. His skin has plenty of scars from his travels in his life (plenty of them have their fair share of stories, most are related to girls). There is three claw-point scars under his right eye. It's a fairly ugly scar and it starts directly under his eye, and goes down to the base of his neck. These scars are also very wide. He doesn't like to talk about how he got it. However, the only way he can hide it is to cover his face, so he bears it. One scar is easily the most notable, it is a thin, jagged scar going straight down the middle of his chest to his stomach. Seemingly made by a blade of sorts. This scar signifies a low-point in his life, which is exactly why he doesn't like to be seen without his shirt on. Due to the notability of his tattoos, this scar isn't too noticed if he does find himself shirtless. He has some small eyes, which heavily appear to be much like his mother, they are blue. His face is very well-defined, and notable. He was a rather large chin, which just so happens to be a double chin. His ears are small, and more or less concealed under his hat. He also has a small nose, which is also concealed slightly by his hat. Johnny's hair is dark black and is neatly slicked back. It's apparent that he keeps his hair well groomed. Johnny has several tribal-style tattoos on his body, usually hidden under his clothing. On his left hand in particular, he has [i]V A L O S[/i] each tattooed on the back of his fingers. On the base of his neck he has a large tattoo of a rose flower, which is visible depending on what he's wearing. Finally, Johnny has one large tattoo on the left side of his chest. Which is black , it contains numerous images of flowers with tribal fire integrated into its design. On the back of his right hand is a blank rectangle, inside the rectangle has [i]Johnny, K. Valos[/i] tattooed in old English font. [b]Attire:[/b] Most when they look at Johnathon's rather odd wardrobe and style; they will be instantly reminded of a 70's Era Pimp and feels as if he's unnatural. In his eyes; he dresses elegantly with a perfect mixture of fancy-clothes and good looks. He usually wears outfits that are brown colored, to the point where almost everything he wears is just different shades of brown. Easily the next thing that most will notice about his outfit is the wide-brimmed pimp hat on his head. Or sometimes he wears a Fedora. He likes to slant his head slightly downwards so that the hat covers his eyes and most of his face. Giving him a mysterious stranger look. Sometimes he likes to wear a brown long coat over his outfit. He also wears a glove on the one hand without the tattoos (occasionally he'll wear gloves on both). When he doesn't wear gloves he likes to wear several rings with fake glass jewels which appear real and other gold based accessories. Johnny's outfit changes from day to day, but, he does keep a reoccurring theme. [b][u]Personality[/u][/b] [b]Outward Personality:[/b] Outwardly, Johnny can be regarded as an asshole by some. While he initially will try to be his own version of [i]"nice"[/i], if people tend to do stupid things that annoy him that easily tends to bring out the bad in him really easily. He won't hesitate to berate them or insult them for even the slightest of offenses. However, he tends to be polite with mostly everyone when he's calm. When he isn't, he tends to swear, a lot, and insult people ruthlessly. One major part of his personality is none other than his ego. He's extremely egotistical and arrogant due to his upbringing. However, he doesn't feel that he's better than people because he's born from a rich family. He just thinks that he's naturally better than people. Unless proven otherwise. It's rather hard to get him off his ego train. It may take several major blows to his ego for him to even come close to acting less arrogant. This is when he's at his prime. When he's depressed, he tends to be much more mellow and much more serious. Johnny does treat people close to him with a higher degree of respect that he usually would an average nobody. When the time is appropriate he'll be joking, having a laugh, which the appropriate time is when he's not in danger. Which is another thing he'll always retain, he's very selfish (I.E: Don't expect him to take a bullet for someone he just met) and doesn't show too much empathy towards anyone but those that are close to him. The added benefit of a lack of empathy and selflessness means higher awareness/self-preservation skills. Which means he can smell trouble or a bad crowd when most will fail to catch up. In addition to this he has a nasty habit of not trusting certain kinds of people. Like he'll think the overwhelming nice dude has something under his belt that he doesn't want someone to see, or rough guy has quite a story under his belt. In terms of morality, Johnny is more of a mercenary in a way. He does exactly what he wants, outside of any and all rules. Damn what anyone thinks of him. Johnny is more or less willing to do anything that'd advance him, even betray his own allies. Given the current situation he's in, friends won't help him in the long run. [b]Hobbies/Skills:[/b] Quite a few. Johnny is a master at anything related to poker and will beat you at Goldfish. Due to his rather shadier interactions with people he has a bit of knowledge of the criminal underworld. As stated in his personality section he's very good at judging characters and situations. Johnny also knows how to speak fluent Portuguese, despite having gone to Brazil once. He's also an expert brawler, having fought many vicious battles in his time. [b]Favorite color:[/b] [b][u]Abilities[/u][/b] [b]Power Class:[/b] Cerebral/Energy/Super-System [b]Power:[/b] [i]Negative Empath.[/i] Johnny has an immensely powerful ability relating to Negative emotions (Anger, Fear, Sadness, Hate, Disgust, and Lust). You see, every living thing in the world has emotions. They give off a very special energy that only Johnny (and select individuals) can utilize. In Johnny's case, he's restricted to negative emotions. Naturally he absorbs some of this negative emotional energy just by being around people. The best way to get it is for him to touch people and absorb it out of them manually. The victim gets no negative effects from this. Once he absorbs an energy it will be stored in him for later use. However, high amounts of Negative-Emotion going on around him will temporarily strengthen him until he's out of vicinity. This power goes down three paths. The first, and without a doubt his main ability is that he can project a marble-sized bullet out of pure emotional energy. Which he calls the [i]'Devil Kiss'[/i], he likes to make a finger gun and shoot the shot out of his middle and index finger when he does this--- for special effects of course. This bullet has an aura similar to fire that burns anything that it graces. This bullet doesn't have the force to put a hole in someone normally, but it can give them a nasty bruise and some minor burns. At the moment, he can't put too much more force behind it nor change the size. That may change as he develops his powers. Next up is his far stronger ability independent of the Devil Kiss. He can transform himself into a partial being of pure Emotional Energy. In this form Johnny anatomically identical to their normal form, aside of being made of emotional energy. His outfit is incorporated into the transformation. This is a rainbow of bright lights, and lines of bright lights, constantly changing and shifting patterns. When Johnny's in this form he'll fortify his cells, bones and muscles giving him much more resistance to damage. Another perk of this ability is that he'll be able to reduce any pain in his body. Even the strongest of hits will not cause him to flinch. Of course once he turns back into a human he'll feel this pain, all at once. Johnny's speed, and agility will be increased far beyond human levels. He'll be able to jump higher and run faster than the eye can comprehend. Eventually he'll be able to reach his ultimate form and have abilities far above his current state. This last set of abilities is mostly for character interaction and etc. While Johnny can't alter emotions, he can subtly influence people's emotions at will. Such as escalating emotions or reducing them. This is useful for when the moment calls for it. All someone has to do is be close enough to him for him to work his magic. This however, isn't instant. It'll take hours on end to make a sad person commit suicide or the pissed off person tranquil. He can tell people's emotions just by looking at them, and has an higher understanding of the emotions of everyone. All they have to do is move out of his line of vision and he can't see their emotions anymore). The last ability is that on touch he can know every single emotion someone has felt down to the day of birth. This, however, does depend on how long he touches a person, and he'd need a few minutes to get that far into their emotional history. Finally, with a bit of focus he can sense emotions from a distance. This ability acts more of a people sense, as he cannot tell the exact emotion, just that there's an emotion capable being. Abilities that Johnny can learn are; Ability to temporarily fully turn into Emotional Energy, and unleashing an unstoppable blast of Emotional Energy. [i]Flash Step.[/i] While transformed; Johnny can cover at least twenty feet in the blink of an eye using an immense burst of speed. He'll appear as a glowing blur, and he'll leave behind a thick rainbow of colors. He can Flash-Step all eight directions, even moving in mid-air. Johnny can do this regardless of current direction/speed, and flash step in another direction with one thought. He can also weaponize this technique, by flash stepping straight into an opponent, causing them damage. Due to his resistance to damage; he'll hurt them more than himself. Johnny can only flash step once every few seconds, and every time it does; it uses up a large amount of Emotional Energy, and wears him down quite a bit. [b]Weaknesses:[/b] Johnny needs a constant source of negative emotions in order to keep using his powers at full strength. Without them his powers will be weaker since he'll only be using his own negative emotions. He needs to be in a neutral emotional state to use his powers efficiently. Positive emotions will only weaken both his Emotional Energy Form and his Devil Kiss. Johnny can only fire six shots of the Devil Kiss in a few minutes. If he tries to fire anymore then he'll burn his fingers and potentially injure himself if he continues firing. He needs much emotional energy to use his Energy Form. If he runs out then he'll return back to his normal form. Another weakness is that if he receives too much pain from attacks while in his energy form, he may pass out. Easily Johnny's biggest weakness is his perverse version of the Black Fall effect. To put it lightly; Johnny is a CENSORED magnet for craziness and angry people. He can indeed not only subconsciously attract meta-humans to him, but humans too. Just that the craziest of them will be more prone to coming to him, and he'll get in the worst of all situations. The reason why this exists is the negative emotions that he absorbs have made the Black Fall effect purely negative. Which means he'll always find himself in bad situations with bad people, or attract a monster. The only way to negate this is that he stops absorbing them entirely and become powerless. [b]Burst Potential:[/b] Gamma, Alpha, Omega, Zeta, and Delta [b][u]Other:[/u][/b] As stated above, Johnny comes from an incredibly rich family (the Valos Family) that may have more connections to the Othergrounds than some may know.[/hider] [/hider]
