He started out as a trouble-some brat that used his power to cause trouble, after getting evened out by Adam, Maximilian decided to become a NEST Agent. He eventually rose through the ranks through sheer leadership, skill, and cohesion until he was being selected to act as a stand-in director. When he was assigned to work in Verthaven, he lead NEST's branch through to the battles against the Hands of Science, to leading the survivors of the Verthaven disaster against the Changeling Unit, and the Devil of Verthaven. After the disbandment of NEST, it was decided that Maximilian would be selected as the chairmen of the RAVEN organization. He gleefully accepted the position in hopes of leading the organization in a direction that would be best for North America's Metahumans, constantly making decisions alongside Deborah. Maximilian is a very tall man at 6'4, Caucasian, and has a muscular build from all the working out he does. (He's no body builder, though. He has to fight crime!) He is said to have the look of a superhero - which is what he's striving for. He has long, strong limbs, and a broad chest. Usually covered up by his black suit and tie. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Echo.[/i] Maximilian has a Stand subservient entity living inside of him. At will, he can bring out this entity - which mirrors his exact appears, except it's glowing with a golden tint, and much larger than him. Maximilian can command Echo to do whatever he wants, it's fully capable of interacting with the environment. It's fairly strong, and fast - capable of delivering a barrage of punches that'd reduce concrete to pieces in seconds. However, it's not invincible. Only Metahumans can see Echo, which is something he does to identify rogue Metahumans. Maximilian also has the ability to fly. Usually he just levitates in a cool manner. [/center][/hider] [hider=Dana Alcott][center] [b][35 | [i]Dana Lucille Alcott (Callsign: Grue)[/i] | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Maximilian's wheelchair bound assistant. Dana is a former NEST Mission Control Operator that's from New York City, and eventually graduated from Academy 218 - before she joined NEST as a mission control officer. Dana was also Adam's pupil during her time in Academy, which got her a spot as Task Force RAVEN's mission control, and was brought to Verthaven. She worked behind the scenes to ensure NEST's victories against the Hands, and all other threats. Which ended with Maximilian being promoted - and Dana being promoted as well (to his assistant). In which she is glad to have her spot. As I mentioned before, Dana is a wheelchair-bound woman that was born with a birth defect in her spine. She's happy as they get, however. Dana is a woman with beige-white skin, and there is a multitude of European Countries in her blood. Dana has made a note not to indulge in greasy foods, so she's rather thin, and wiry. A little bit of exercise helped. Her arms are toned from years upon years of upper arm exercise. Dana has blue eyes that are oddly beady, striking. Her facial features are sharp, and she looks very mousy behind her glasses. Most notably, is her head of hair. It's very curly. She has a shaggy hairstyle that is almost like an afro, but not too big or silly. Sometimes she puts flowers into her hair. However, despite her innocent looks, Dana is one of the most dangerous Metahumans in RAVEN. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Unseen-Monster Transformation.[/i] Dana is one of the strongest Metahumans employed in RAVEN. Once Dana is out of sight, she transforms into an abomination that is capable of unearthly feats of speed. If someone blinks, she's fast enough to clear a surprising amount of space. Almost like she just teleported. This alternate form is so horrible that it ignores the laws of physics (Mostly relating to speed). This form, according to Dana, has tentacles, extra limbs, and claws. It's also quite strong, durable, and capable of wall crawling. Of course this means that if she comes in sight of someone, she'll transform right back into a crippled thirty-something. [/center][/hider] [hider=Mercer Bennet][center] [b][34 | Mercer "Mercy" Bennet (though it's rumored he had his name legally changed from Tim) | Cock and balls][/b] [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JI6MPQ6BLdM[/youtube] [b]Description:[/b] Somewhat new to these parts, Mercy is a RAVEN transfer from New Mexico. He's a tall, thick man with arms like tree trunks and a keg for a belly. His face wears a black goatee and muttonchops, and a cap that'd give you the impression he was from the military - and he was! A former marine corps quartermaster officer but was, ah, relieved of duty after a number of weapons had mysteriously disappeared and his superiors decided that he wasn't doing a good enough job maintaining the supplies. Sent home and with nowhere else to go, he figured that he could take his fine, superpowered ass to the new RAVEN organization that popped up. Worked there for a few years in New Mexico, until there was a job opening in Baybridge for another quartermaster officer - and Mercy had the experience to fulfill that position. He has been there for about a year now. It seems as though the man never sleeps and is a sucker for overtime, because he can be found behind his desk in the armory at nearly any point of the day. You have to admire his dedication if nothing else - because his undying optimism and loud personality is grating on the nerves. He's like a massive mastiff dog that has to bark at everything that moves. The greatest mystery that surrounds him, other than the loss of his previous employment, was how he got the name "Mercy". Surely, it can't just be a dolled up version of Mercer... [b]Power:[/B] [i]Internal Pocket-Dimension & Shapeshifting[/i] From any point of Mercy's body, he can open up what looks like a black hole - without all the mass - and store a countless number of objects. The only limit on that is the size of the object. He can't store a car, cars are bigger than him, and he can't turn the entirety of his body into a hole to his pocket dimension. He doesn't want to store perishables inside for obvious reasons. From there, Mercy can also shapeshift himself or parts of his body into objects stored inside. If he stores a wrench inside, he could transform himself into a 200 lb. wrench, or just a portion of his body with weight equivalent to the item. He can't transform himself into anything heavier than himself - if he tried, a 500 lb weight would weigh just 200 lbs. The transformed parts of his body and the actual objects they transform into sort of coincide with one another. It would be more accurate to describe it as the object replacing his hands moreso than it is his hand turning into the object, as a physicist may observe, but the hypnotizing and, quite frankly, confounding process would lead anyone else to believe otherwise - perhaps the effects are interchangeable! But like the man who wields this power, it defies science and understanding. He has a bunch of stuff and gadgets inside him, but most notably, an entire arsenal of military-grade equipment. [deadpan]By golly, I wonder where he got it from.[/deadpan] [/center][/hider] [/hider] [h1][color=limegreen]▶: DOVE AGENTS[/color][/h1][hr] [hider] [hider=Deborah Javuant][center] [b][34 | [i]Deborah Lillian Javuant (Callsign: Secret Keeper)[/i] | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Chairwoman of DOVE. Originally a woman from Black Fall Pennsylvania that became a NEST Agent, Deborah was a strong advocate for change within the NEST Organization. Stating that the system was flawed and needed to be changed - which fell on deaf ears as High Command chose to ignore her. However, she got the change that she idealized once NEST was disbanded, and DOVE was formed. Due to her exemplary humanity, and skills as an Agent, Deborah was chosen to be the Chairmen of DOVE, and she was the woman who shaped DOVE into what it is today. Deborah is a tall African-American woman that is well built. She is a Metahuman with a powerful array of Extra-sensory abilities that gives her information on what she can perceive (Along with other telepathic abilities). Deborah is regarded as one of the kindest Agents, and gives it her all as she tries to improve the world, not just for Metahumans, but for everyone. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Psychometric-Perception.[/i] Deborah has an extremely powerful information gathering ability that naturally makes her a great detective. Extra-sensory in nature. It's rather simple to explain, she gains information about what she perceives (What she sees, hears, smells, touches, and even tastes) about her environment automatically. It goes a little bit more in depth than that, since she does this by making connections between cause-and-effect, filling in the blanks of information. The possibilities are nearly endless. She could learn motives with a glance, learn about objects around her, and so on. But Deborah mostly uses this ability on other humans to learn about them. Technically, she has a lesser form of Empathy, as her whole power allows her to learn emotions through scanning body language. This ability to make connections allows her to do a little bit more than what you're thinking. By scanning enough about a particular subject, she can make larger connections. Such as if she's scanning a random object, she can learn that it's sentimental, and why. Or if she finds a gun on the ground smoking, she can tell how long ago it's been shot and where the bullet went. That's just a few examples in particular, since there's a ton of variables here. Unlike other abilities that are Psychometric in nature, this ability focuses on present time information, or more precisely what she is currently perceiving. She also has tactile-telepathy, a psychic shield (Which defends her from other mental powers), and Premonitions. [/center][/hider] [hider=Shannon Balore][center] [b][36 | [i]Shannon Jacqueline Balore (Callsign: Silkworm)[/i] | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Deborah's rather grumpy assistant. A rather close childhood friend of hers that followed Deborah all the way to the top, doing all she can to support her. From being the fried that Deborah needed, to joining NEST with her. Which has earned her a spot as Deborah's assistant within DOVE. She makes appointments, and helps Deborah manage things around DOVE. She supports in executive decisions. Shannon is a red-haired Irish/Israel woman who's blue eyes are hidden behind a pair of glasses. She is known for her excessively stylish clothings... because of her ability to manipulate clothes (More like the ability to manipulate everything clothes are made out of) allows her to make any outfit imaginable. As you may have expected, Shannon is in Baybridge with Deborah. Though, it's suspected they're more than just friends... [b]Power:[/B] [i]Clothing-Manipulation.[/i] Alright, here's the 4-1-1, Shannon has the power to manipulate clothing, or more accurately, the materials they're comprised of. To start off, this gives her to ability to manipulate all fibers/fabrics (wool, silk, cotton, etc), denim, nylons, polyester, rayon, flannel, leather, feather down, linen, and spandex. These materials are what she can control the best. She can freely move it telekinetically with exceptional precision, and control - along with being able to move large quantities if she pleases. The most obvious use is that she can weave pretty much anything she can imagine out of these flexible materials. Clothes, weapons, barriers - you name it. But a major side-ability she has is that she can alter these materials properties (Absorbency, texture, weight/density, color, and structure). Shannon can also control the tensile strength of these materials. Tensile strength is more or less how much stress these materials can withstand before snapping. Thus, Shannon can alter that. She can give a single thread the strength of diamonds, or make any outfit bullet-resistant (Not proof, since they can't absorb the impact of the bullets). [/center][/hider] [hider=Jade West][center] [b][26 | Jade Vanessa West | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] It's stated that her blood is cursed. Jade is a Haitian woman who carries the "Witch Mother gene" in her. The Witch Mothers are a long line of Metahumans in which their females develop the ability to manipulate biology. They're the scourge of Haiti, but the newest Witch Mother was a member of the Changeling Unit. Which brings Jade much shame. Which is why Jade joined DOVE in Baybridge, to use her ability to atone for the sins of her bloodline. Jade's skin is a dark color, and her features are consistent with Haitians. She's well-built, but not overly muscular. Jade acts as a standard member of DOVE, as well as a medic. Jade is in a relationship with Drake Blackmore. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Biology-Manipulation. [/i]Much like her grandmother, Jade possesses a limitless control over biology. If she touches something, she can recode the biology of anything. Including changing it to a whole different creature. However, Jade does not like this ability, and has mentally conditioned herself so that she doesn't use her biology manipulation. Jade instead uses the helpful, healing aspects of this power, and heals anyone who needs it. [/center][/hider] [hider=Scarlet Obott][center] [b][32 | Scarlet Sindel Obott | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] One of the survivors of the Verthaven disaster that was a NEST trainee to support her younger brother, Trevor Obott, who was killed by Luis in his last moments. Distraught over the death of her brother, Scarlet joined up with the newly formed DOVE and has been doing everything she could to ensure that other young Metahumans get the help they need. Scarlet almost exclusively works with young Metahumans. Scarlet is a average heighted woman that is in her early twenties. Neurotic and mousy looking, her hair is a burgundy color tied up into a bun - it looks a little messy as there's a noticeable amount of hair strands sticking out. She dresses pretty casual, but also walks around with the DOVE uniform. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Narcotic-Emission.[/i] Scarlet's power manifested in that his body produces a powerful magical, cure-all, drug. Every part of her body is a drug - it is heavily concentrated into her breath and bodily fluids. However, she's capable of secreting it as a thick, clear, liquid, out of his sweat pores. She can't, say, shoot out a gust of her drug, but she can coat his hands with it, and keep producing it for ages (Until the effects of fatigue kick in). Once it comes in contact with another person, the drug is immediately absorbed into the body, and will start affecting the individual in shortly as a few seconds. However, if the drugs are consumed, or injected, the effects will be amplified. Now, as for it's effects; the drug is a powerful medical, hallucinogenic, and sedative, drug, which has a variety of effects. Euphoria, body-wide physical pleasure, sedation, reduction of pain, hallucinations (Psychedelic in nature), removal of harmful contaminants (Bacteria, Poison, Diseases, etc), and will induce regeneration in others. They quickly wear off, even the worse high will be gone in an hour. Now, Scarlet herself is immune to the effects of the drug, but the high concentration of the drugs in her body have effectively made her immune to all foreign chemicals (Medicine, etc), and containments (poisons, toxins, venoms, viruses, bacteria, etc.). She's so immune that his immune-system never had to work once in it's life. [/center][/hider] [hider=Samantha Bayard][center] [b][35 | Samantha Bayard | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Ms. Bayard's job is the smooth operation of the administrative offices of DOVE headquarters. Her role as their supervisor has her busy at pretty much all times of the day, going so far as to even take calls while she's at home. She's a tall woman with brunette hair that is frequently done in a tightly pulled bun, and an entire wardrobe full of formal dress wear. Most people wonder if it would kill her to live it up some, but no, this gal is [i]strictly business.[/i] She's passionate about DOVE's work and what she does, and the only thing that could stand between her and DOVE's vision realized is the sweet embrace of death. Though as effective as she may be, she plays the game safe and doesn't like taking unnecessary risks. She plays by the book, follows the rules, and doesn't tolerate too much deviation from the plan she has set for offices. This puts her at odds with some of the more, uh, "willful" folk, but she's a swift deliverer of discipline when the time calls for it. Despite what some may say about her, no one can deny that there's never been a more efficient administrative supervisor in the building. One of her quirks is that there's a particular saying she abuses nearly all the time, and it could be any variation of the phrase "running [this place] like a well-oiled machine". [b]Power:[/B] [i]Powerless[/i] But many people assume that she simply doesn't require sleep. Only the sweat and blood of her minions. [/center][/hider] [hider=Olivia][center] [b][36 | Olivia Verde | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] A fit member of DOVE (who joined after being turned down a few times) that is a high ranking member of the organization. The woman that manages the many DOVE protection programs. Making sure that at risk Metahumans (especially Metahuman children who were exploited) are safe. At least, that's what they put on her job description. In actuality, Olivia was one of the many DOVEs that were in bed with the Founding Family, and took checks to reveal Metahumans that would be useful to them. She, like very few, was spared from the backlash, and instead does the job she was paid to. Afraid her life will come crashing down. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Weather Manipulation.[/i] Olivia has the ability to summon weather effects such as snow, lightning, wind, hail, and focus them into attacks and whatnot. It isn't manipulating elements such as some elemental types, but she can do some damage.

He's known Nationwide for his work on a cure for Metahumans, and how much progress he's making on it. Usually he stays in Black Fall to do work, but he often travels to compare notes, and other business endeavors. He's been brought to Verthaven for a very important meeting, he refuses to disclose. Brother of Lihua Zhao (And uncle of Meifeng and Lijuan), and father of many children. Jiao-Long is obviously Chinese, with yellowish skin with light-white overtones, and very asianic features. His eyes are dark brown. He is quite tall at 6'5, but few would notice because he hunches over at times. He's a bit pudgy because of all the work he does leaves very little time to work out. He's a very kind, and calm man, who only wants the best for everyone, and wants to achieve peace wherever he can. Jiao-Long moved from Black Fall to Baybridge because of the growing tensions in the former city, and the fact he's allocating a lot of his business to the latter. [b]Power:[/B] None. [/center][/hider] [/hider] [h1][color=limegreen]▶: ZODIAC[/color][/h1][hr] [hider] [hider=Sovereign][center] [b][Unknown | Sovereign (Real name unknown) | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Also known as the "Black Hound" when he worked for the Family, and "Abel" (an affectionate nickname given to him by the Foundation Woman). He's a hulking monstrosity of a man clad in black armor decorated with the logo of the snarling dog he's known for. He used to be the most feared man on the planet when he worked for the Founding Family, being the former leader of the Intimidation Unit... and even after betraying them, he's still as frightening as ever. He went from a military styled armor, to a strange one. One that is nearly skin-tight in the appearance of muscles, with extra armor in his certain areas (his chest, waist, shoulder, legs, and head). His helmet has changed to a more rounded and bulky design with the gas mask. The same intimidating and faceless design. Despite being robotic in demeanor, he has a strong sense of honor, and is philosophical. He hates senseless violence, but will show his ruthless side if necessary. He's heavily armed with the best weapons, but sticks with a good old grenade launcher, or a heavy duty machine gun. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Augmented-Physical Capabilities.[/i] It's unknown what his true powers are, but the Sovereign has, thus far, demonstrated enhanced strength, speed, regeneration, durability, reflexes, and aim. He's very strong, and can shrug off attacks from even the strongest Metahumans. Which have given him the reputation of a boogy man, as he displays horror-movie villain amounts of implacability. Along with a helmet that is augmented with several different scanners, and giving him a large amount of information. He also seems to be immune to cerebral-type abilities, as his mind is like a fortress. [/center][/hider] [hider=The Foundation Woman][center] [b][35 | Tabitha Crest (Codename: The Foundation Woman) | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Also known as Tabitha Crest. The Foundation Woman was a powerful member of the Founding Family, and their second in command. Their general, the one who passes down orders from the Blessed Three to everyone below her. Nobody knew who she was saved for the three, or the Elders of the Founding Family. Her true identity was Tabitha Crest, a role that she was born into after inheriting it from her father. After years of planning, she and the Hound betrayed the Founding Family, and were the main component in their end. Now, the Foundation Woman independently runs the ZODIAC group in their goals. She and Sovereign have an end goal in mind, but aren't willing to share it with anyone. The ZODIAC group have been so successful because of the Foundation Woman's extremely powerful Extra-Sensory ability. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Chance-Sensing[/i] She has the ability to see chance, and percentages of something happening. So, in essence, she can practically tell what will fail, and what won't. By carefully picking ZODIAC's battles very carefully, she lead them to victory. [/center][/hider] [/hider] [h1][color=limegreen]▶: THE PHILOSOPHERS[/color][/h1][hr] [hider][hider=Kumiko Fujimoto][center] [b][51 | Fujimoto Kumiko | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] One of the top members of the Philosophers, and was formerly an undercover member of the Founding Family's Intimidation Unit. Where she ran under the name of Makoto Koda, and became one of their top assassins. She betrayed the Founding Family, and helped her daughter, Wendy Lucker, escape. Since then, the two have kept in touch as Kumiko sorted out business in Baybridge. She is a tall Japanese-American woman that stands at five-ten, her build is thin, but underneath the clothes she is surprisingly muscular. That shows in her acrobatic feats of agility, and demonstrations of strength. Makoto dresses pretty casually, but she dresses like people younger than herself (Who says she can't be hip?). She's hard to peg, as many of her interactions are teasing, and sarcasm. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Retroactive-Power Replication.[/i] Makoto has an ability that crosses the Replication and Extra-Sensory power classes. She is able to unlock her potential to sense past events in order to detect if a power has been used in the area in the past. Using this potential, with concentration, she may see into the past and witness the power being used in action. That's not all, folks, by channeling this Cerebral ability, she can also replicate powers if she focuses on the event enough. It depends on how long ago the power was used in the area. If it was a few hours ago, it'd be a few minutes... but, years in the past would take hours of uninterrupted focus and concentration before she could copy the power. Afterwards, she has the power "stored" in her memory (She can store up to five abilities). Currently, Makoto has the ability to manipulate metal, flashstep, and teleport. [/center][/hider][/hider] [h1][color=limegreen]▶: MAVERICK[/color][/h1][hr] [hider] [hider=Graham Morris][center] [b][43 | Graham Xavier Morris | Male][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Formerly, one of the frontline members of the MISW, Graham is a long time agent, and enforcer of Metahuman security of the UK. After the fall of the Family, and the MISW by that extent, Graham left Britain, and joined MAVERICK. One of the most skilled and experienced agents, armed with his knowledge, he sees a fairly high success rate. However, while most have gotten the idea that Graham is nothing more than a soldier, they wouldn't be any further from the truth. He's a very polite, and introspective man that has a love for reading and knowledge. He's also very vocal about Metahuman politics, and is the main man one pushing for change within the MISW. Out of both fear that they would produce an infinite cycle of homegrown terrorism, and they are treating Metahumans as second class citizens. Oh, did I mention? Due to Graham's ability, he's an invisible man. Yes, he's permanently invisible. It's impossible for him to make himself visible, but fortunately (until he activates it) his clothes will remain visible. He usually wears glasses, and a longcoat. He also has a daughter with the exact same ability as him that attends the Academy in Baybridge. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Invisibility-Manipulation.[/i] Graham has a few abilities relating to invisibility. First, he's always invisible. No one can see his flesh, only the clothes on top of it. You would expect that he would need to get naked before he puts this ability to good use, but he has a light manipulating ability that allows him to extend his invisibility to his clothes. In addition, he can also produce fields of invisibility, or make specific objects invisible. Graham also has the ability to produce shields that will block attacks. Unlike his invisibility, his shields are only vaguely visible. If you're wondering how he doesn't render himself blind, shut up, it just works. [/center][/hider] [hider=Carmen 'Lily' Santo][center] [b][27 | Carmen Santo | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Formerly a run away after her power manifested and made her the target of many different groups, Lily, for her own safety, joined RAVEN. Which she developed the combat skills she holds to this day, and was loyal to the organization... up until she was betrayed by a corrupt RAVEN working for the Family, and her power was used as the basis for the Family's own power granting serum. She was liberated when the Family finally fell, but couldn't face RAVEN anymore. She left, but by the time this happened, MAVERICK was looking for fresh recruits, and extended her a hand. Lily joined, and became one of the most respected members of the whole organization. Even then, she's still polite, respectful, and kind, above all else. Lily is a Puerto-Rican woman that stands at 5'2, and has a well-built body. Her body has plenty of scars due to the incidents she gotten into when she was younger involving her power. She keeps her brown hair cut short, and hard to grab, but ultimately very well-maintained. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Power Charging & Granting.[/i] Lily's body is a near-limitless generator of Metahuman energy, which she can transfer to others on touch. When this energy is transferred to other people, it has one of two effects. Either it enhances their abilities, if Metahuman, or gives them powers. Which is easily considered the most dangerous of all Metahuman abilities. But, if someone is charged too much... they enter a state of being "overcharged" where their powers are enhanced to uncontrollable levels. [/center][/hider] [hider=Michelle Gallus][center] [b][38 | Michelle Brianna Gallus | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] One of the first members of MAVERICK. Michelle was formerly a member of the NEST organization after leaving a circus act for Metahumans. After losing her arm, and other humiliating acts during Verthaven, Michelle fell into a pit of despair and left NEST. She worked as a grocery bagger for a few years, before returning to the circus act. But, after the fall of the Founding Family, she was approached by a recruiter for MAVERICK, and seeing this as her chance to get over her rut, she joined. Becoming second in command for the organization, Michelle has quite the reputation. First, for being seven feet tall, and being loud, boisterous, and confident. Finally regaining it. Michelle is African-American, and primed with muscles from head to toe from her power. She is the heavy lifter in MAVERICK, but don't ever mistake her for dumb muscle. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Bestial Strength.[/i] Michelle's power gives her enormous amounts of brute strength, enough to lift a car with one hand. But, the beast half of her power comes in the ability to manifest claws, and her enhanced sensory abilities.

Strange places. Her first documented appearance was working in Academy 218, but she has popped up all over the place. Her last known sighting was with the Hands of Science. Not a soul knows what she wants, or where she came from, but her objectives seem to be the most mysterious part of her. She appears only to Meta-humans, and often helps them in different ways. Otherwise she only speaks to them briefly. Anyone who encounters her quickly finds out about her rather juvenile personality. Extremely cheery, and almost sociopathic in attitude. Megan has one consistent appearance. A tall redhaired woman with freckles, dressing modestly, and having unmatched beauty. Megan was actually the one who leaked the information about the Hands of Science and Changeling Unit to the world, in an attempt to betray them. Since then, she has gone into hiding. Megan is accompanying her mother, Ada, to Baybridge for strange and unknown reasons. But, it's apparent that she knows a lot more than what she lets on. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Amorphous Shape-Shifting.[/i] Megan's body is comprised of a vaguely organic substance that she can freely shape into anything imaginable. This substance is lightweight, self-repairing, and allows her to mimic the properties of anything she has encountered before. It's highly suspected that there's more to this ability.

Ada was the scourge of the Secret Age of Metahumans, being responsible for many of their deaths, and playing a major part in many events during that era. She is the reason why the Changeling Unit was created, as she drove Luis mad. However, despite that, she has good intentions, and only wants to dedicate herself, and her power, towards building a much brighter future. Which is why she helps young Metahumans in her organization The Coven. Ada has taken many forms throughout the years, and Ada is just one identity of many. Ada's current form is a tall woman with German features, blonde hair, and blue eyes. She wears a black cloak that covers a majority of her features with a wide brimmed hat. Almost nobody in the current era has any idea who Ada is, and what she's doing. [b]Power:[/B] Unknown, however, it was stated by many that Ada is the most powerful Metahuman on Earth.

She's a brown haired woman of Spanish facial features, and a pale brown skin. What is most notable about her appearance is her reptilian-like claws for hands and feet. They have a tan color, and have very long white keratin blades. She is the one that was chosen to accompany Ada and Megan to Baybridge. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Portal Cutter.[/i] With her claws, Adora can channel space-time forces to cut slashes in reality itself. By using these cuts in reality, she (and anybody else) can step through them to travel to different locations. She can easily travel in between continents with ease. In addition, she claws are supernaturally sharp, and can cut through metal.

She survived due to the valiant efforts of the resistance, and managed to grow up into an eight year old girl. Lijuan is a mixed child, she is part Chinese, and a variety of different European countries. Though, she looks much like a Caucasian child, that has a bit of Asian in her eyes. She's what you'd expect an eight year old to be in terms of build; short, chubby, and all over the place. Lijuan has a head of black hair styled into a bob cut that's well maintained by her methodical mother. Lijuan is normally a very cheerful and energetic girl that gets plenty of attention from her family... however, after the death of her mother, the person she was closest to; she's been feeling incredible depression. As she's lost the person she's loved the most. She's currently under the care of the Liu family since this incident, and has been in close contact with her older sister, Meifeng. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Fire-Manipulation.[/i] Lijuan has the abilities of the standard firebender, she may produce intense flames from her body, and manipulate them. However, Lijuan doesn't know how to control her ability because it's such a powerful ability in the hands of a young girl. She may unconsciously activate her power upon emotion and cause immense damage. Which is why she's been assigned a power-suppressant collar which puts her ability under control. [/center][/hider] [hider=Jennifer Caspin][center] [b][27 | [i]Jennifer Marissa Caspin[/i] | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] A person that tragedy seems to always follow. Jennifer Caspin is a girl that seen it all. Starting in Verthaven, she was apart of the attack on the Fiends, and lost everything during the Verthaven Disaster. Seemingly killed by the Devil of Verthaven herself. For a few years, she renounced who she was, living under the alias of Missy Baroness. Before returning her "true" identity of Missy Baroness... just in time to learn the harsh truth of her return. That she was indeed killed, but resurrected as a part of a sick experiment by Julia O'Sullivan. After that woman's death, she realized that it was time to move on, and live by her own terms. Starting by finding her old employer Megan Jervious. Jennifer is an average heighted, and quite curvy, young woman whose maturity was completely stunted by her superpower. She still looks seventeen years old despite being well into her twenties. She has blonde hair usually kept in a ponytail, and bright-blue eyes. She is Caucasian with Scavandian roots dictating the outcome of her facial features. One of the strangest features on her body has got to be her spine... It's exposed to the world, and well prehensile like a monkey's tail. It's located a few inches above her waist, and is easily six feet long. This spine moves quite strangely, like it's a scorpion tail. She keeps these features covered up with clothing, usually a hoodie. She is a very close friend of Meifeng Zhao, Haruka Takashiro, and the other Verthaven survivors. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Bone, Blood, & Skin Manipulation, & High-Regeneration.[/i] Jennifer has the ability to manipulate her body, basically. She has the ability to make bone of any shape grow out of her body, and act as a weapon. Usually a spear of some sort, but she's sometimes made a spear made out of bone. Jennifer can also control the bone of other people if she can get her prehensile spine to touch stripped bone. Jennifer can shape, and grow her skin, in addition to being able to alter texture, color, smoothness, density, sensitivity, etc. One trick she learned how to do is give herself "enhanced touch." Giving her the ability to sense vibrations through solids and liquids, and she can even sense air-pressure changes - at the cost of being extra sensitive to pain. Along with the ability to control her muscles, and whatnot. She can telekinetically control blood. Either her own, or blood that's been exposed to the air. She lacks the fancy tricks of her previous two abilities, but she can do stuff like force wounds to scab, or stop blood flow in parts of her body. Finally, Jennifer has an immense regenerative factor. She can heal from even the worst wounds within an hour, and any blow that doesn't go to the brain won't even stagger her. She, oddly enough, has a network of "backup organs" that activate whenever a primary organ fails. Which can keep her alive despite the odds. [/center][/hider] [hider=The Valos Family] [hider=Jake Valos][center] [b][27 | Jake Daniels Valos | Male][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Jake is a prince in all definitions of the word. He's the second youngest son of Jason Valos, owner of several clubs and casinos all over the United States. Leaving him, his twin sister Gabriela, and their various siblings, in the hands of maids and butlers - with loads of money. Hilarity ensues. Jake is known from all over as an overall chill person - and is easily the most outgoing out of his siblings. He's very polite, and calm, treats everyone with respect. True to his family, Jake is a Brazilian boy. His light-brown skin tells much about his Spanish roots. He's thin, and has the build of a swimmer. Thin limbs without body fat or muscles. He certainly has a feminine vibe to his facial features. It might just be the glasses, though. His hair is a very black color, slicked back. Jake usually is seen wearing a suit, or any other fancy article of clothing. Usually he has an overcoat over it all. Jake is the one that keeps Johnny in line... mostly. He does end up giving into his siblings foolishness. Jake is the most focused on the mission to save their missing sisters. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Psuedo-Realistic Illusions.[/i] Jake possesses a heightened form of illusion generation. Whether it's through training, or the basic form of his ability is the question he won't be answering any time soon. The illusory ability allows him to generate illusions in the real world, opposed to the minds of the people around him. Which means he straight up bypasses any form of mental resistance, and can appear in recordings. These illusions have the ability to take the properties of what they mimic, fooling people. They can mimic sense, taste, smell, and even sound, and can fool the mind into thinking that they are solid. Of course, this aspect of his ability can be resisted by cerebral Metahumans. [/center][/hider] [hider=Gabriela Valos][center] [b][27 | Gabriela Mya Valos | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Twin-Sister to Jake. Their features are pretty much the same (Brazilian heritage, brown skin, black hair, etc). Much rougher in appearance, creating such a contrast between them. Where Jake looks like a prince, Gabe looks like a biker. She stands at the average female height, and is quite curvy. Though, her skin is covered in burn scars. She looks like a bad burn victim. Though, she functions perfectly fine, despite those burns. She just keeps them covered up with her leather biker outfits. Though, there's no hiding her missing eye - hidden behind a large black eyepatch. There's three claw-point scars running down that eye - indicating that some beast clawed it out. Gabe keeps her hair styled in a pony-tail. Gabe certainly is an easily angered human being. She's always seen as aggravated, and quick to fight. Though, she's nice enough in normal situations. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Laser-Generation.[/i] Gabe has the ability to absorb light from the environment around her in her cells, and weaponize it later. She can project the lasers as a deadly beam that moves at the speed of light that burns the air around her. She can control the size of the laser - the wider the beam, the larger the radius, but the smaller the beam, the more focused it becomes. It comes to the point where Gabe is considered to be an incredibly dangerous Metahuman. However, it is connected to her emotions... and if she gets angry, the beams will become more powerful, but unstable and hard to control. To the point where they explode in her face. You can guess where she got all those burnscars from. [/center][/hider] [hider=Jaska Valos][center] [b][18 | Jaska Valos | Male][/b] [b]Description:[/b] An aberrant, an unknown scion that was added to the Valos family very recently, and still being introduced. There is something very wrong with this young boy from first glance. He looks bestial, almost demonic. Jaska is a young boy with light-caramel skin, a mixture of his Japanese, African and Brazilian roots. He's the tallest of the bunch at 6'7ft. Now, what makes Jaska so frightening is the manifestation of his powers in the form of physical alterations. A mouth full of razor-sharp teeth, jagged claws on his hands and feet, wings with a twelve foot wingspan, a thin devil-y tail with a blade at the end, three horns above his ears (that point backwards), a one foot long tongue, and pointy ears! Otherwise, he looks perfectly normal, even with a head of black hair. His personality also offsets his looks. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Apex-Predator & Inner-Beast.[/i] Jaska's a beast, he promises more than teeth marks when he attacks. Obviously, the first part of Jaska's power is that he's been given physical alterations. Those alterations do exactly what you'd expect them to do (Idiot). However, Jaska's also been given enhancements in the following areas: strength (he could easily overpower a fully grown man), speed (On all fours, he's hard to catch), agility (he can pull off flips, and is quite flexible), senses (Hearing, smell, sight - though his hearing is the best), regeneration (He can bounce back from wounds quite well), and camouflage (He's the invisiblessed - but, no, really, he can make himself harder to see). At the cost of being quite frail in this state. On the other hand, if Jaska is mortally wounded (Or hears the phrase "Little Devil"), his inner-beast will activate. It's basically a giant, hulking form (That's one inch taller than Henry, and way cooler), and has strength (Can lift one ton) and durability (He can take physical blows fine, but blades, bullets and energy? Not so much) that matches it. This state lowers his speed by quite a few notches. He'll be a bit faster than the average running speed on all fours - otherwise, he's pretty slow. In this state, he'll rampage around until he's defeated, or runs out of energy - either way, Jaska will be out of it for awhile while he recovers. Oh yeah, before he begins the transformation, his wounds will quickly regenerate before his body focuses on the transformation (In the process, eliminating his regenerative factor for the duration). [/center][/hider] [/hider] [hider=The Liu Sisters] [hider=Lin Liu][center] [b][27 | Liu Lin | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Daughter of a rich scientist and owner of a company known as the Liu Pharmaceutical Company, Lin Liu was the oldest among a group of three sisters (Four, since her father also fathered a bastard daughter). She had everything she ever needed, and more. A life of comfort that was unheard of. She was built up as the successor to Jiao-Long, but unfortunately, once Honghui came along, she was casted aside. That left a very bitter taste in her mouth. Lin is Chinese, and has a whitish skin with very heavy golden overtones. Her build is very thin and frail, and her hair is black, straight, and tied up into a bun. Her facial features are sharp, nearly avian. She is known to be the most beautiful out of the Liu sisters. She's usually seen wearing a dress of some sort. [b]Power:[/b] [i]Telepathic Shape-Shifting.[/i] Lin has the power to read minds (Professor X style) and assume forms based off of those thoughts. You could be thinking about your mom and she could shapeshift into her, or you could be thinking about a person you saw the other night, and bam! She shapeshifted. She is capable of disobeying the laws of mass conservation to an extent, allowing her to assume the forms of people larger/smaller than her. Her telepathic abilities on their own aren't too shabby. She can read thoughts, send them, and open mental connections over a large range (Which she can expand with effort). She can also send sexy thoughts to people.[/center][/hider] [hider=Mika Liu][center] [b][30| Liu Mika | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] The much older (and much more judgmental) half-sister of Lin Liu. She was the result of big pappa Liu having one night stand with a secretary, and eventually she joined the family in their mansion. She's incredibly polite, but also extremely judgmental, arrogant, and haughty (She looks down on everyone). Mika, like her sisters, is Asian (Half-Chinese, and Half-Japanese, to be exact). She's somewhat chubby, and has a gut, due to a real lack of exercise and over indulging herself in sweets. Her facial features are diamond shaped, and sharp, and she has a pony-tail (her hair is black btw) that reaches her back. She's known to put a flower in it. Mika's attire is very modest, and schoolgirl-y. [b]Power:[/b] [i]Cerebral Power-Replication.[/i] Mika has the power to copy and store Cerebral powers inside of her. Which she can switch between, but she can only use one at a time. At the moment, Mika only has Lin's telepathic abilities, and a telekinetic power that allows her to make shields.[/center][/hider] [/hider] [hider=Miranda Mercer][center] [b][36 | Miranda Mercer | Female][/b] [b]Description:[/b] A mysterious woman that was a former member of the Founding Family. She is fairly average heighted, and has blonde hair, and blue eyes, with her hair in a pony-tail. She has a sharp, secretary, vibe around her when professional - wearing suits with skirts, and glasses. When casual, she'll wear just about anything. She is cold, and mysterious, and doesn't let a lot of people know about her. Whether it's shame about her past, or something else, is up for debate. What is known that she is rallying people against the apparent Founding Family remnants. But, she is having a hard time as it's difficult to get people to trust her. [b]Power:[/B] [i]Unknown.[/i] Appears to be human, but telepaths have a hard time piercing her mind. [/center][/hider] [hider=Bernard Durand][center] [b][41 | Bernard Durand | Male][/b] [b]Description:[/b] Taylor Pierpoint’s head of security and personal bodyguard, Bernard is a massive man. 6’9” and nearly 400 pounds, he is a real “tree” of a man. Bernard’s body is made entirely of wood which seems to have a polished finish. He is incredibly muscular to the point where he seems to burst out of whatever clothing he wears. He has a large, square head with a big, flat nose and a square jaw. He has large ears and hair cut in a military-style flat-top. Bernard’s hair is green and made of what appears to be grass. Personality-wise, Bernard is stoic, tough as nails, and incredibly cautious. He has a lot of attachment to his charge, Ms. Pierpoint, as she helped him out of a very tight spot by giving him his current job. Bernard wears a black suit with a white shirt and a forest green tie. [b]Power:[/B] [/center][i]Underneath the Sycamore:[/i] Bernard is made of wood. His entire body, including his skin, vascular system, bones, and muscles, are all made of plant fiber, making them extremely tough. Bernard is very durable because of this and has extreme strength (he’s capable of lifting about 1500 pounds). Bernard’s blood is thick and viscous like tree sap, and dries quickly on contact with air, reducing blood loss. Bernard can still be damaged, however, and will bleed like a normal human if hurt. Bernard also needs to regularly sunbathe or his fibrous body will dry up, restricting his movement. If he stays out of the sun for too long, Bernard will grow extremely ill and will exhibit symptoms of starvation. [/hider] [/hider] [/indent][/hider]
