@blumenk Yup, that's fine. By the way, I probably should have put it here but the OOC is already up. Sorry I'm stupid. ^^" Link is in my sig.

@Weird Tales Same for you, actually...

The Band of Not-So-Heroes: A Superhero Comedy

@GarlandDaHero Its a really awesome character, but my only concern is where she got her powers. The people who receive power from the Voodoo Man are corrupt and easy to manipulate, thinking they will receive their greatest desire, such as money or love. The whole point of the heroes is that they don't need the Voodoo Man's power because they have their own, and that gives them strength over him.

Does that make sense? ^^"

The Band of Not-So-Heroes: A Superhero Comedy

@Burning Kitty Ah, alrighty. But please try and write a little something for the personality and then it's accepted. ^_^

@GarlandDaHero You got it! I most likely will just give it a 'like' as a form of accepting.

The Band of Not-So-Heroes: A Superhero Comedy

@Burning Kitty Is the form still a w.i.p.? You didn't fill out the personality section and I wanted to make sure that you didn't make a mistake by putting his gender as "female"?

By the way...

Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto!

The Band of Not-So-Heroes: A Superhero Comedy

My Characters

Real Name: Violet Riise
Nickname(s): Vivi, Leader, Psycho, Flamehead
Hero Name: Flame Vixen
Hero or Villain?: Hero
Gender: female
Age: 21
Appearance: Standing at 5'4", Violet is short to match her short temper. Even though she has a very pretty heart shaped face with large magenta cat-like eyes, a small nose, thin brows and light pink-beige small lips, it can easily become terrifying when those big eyes light up in full-fledged fire. Violet is pale and is a fairly average weight, but can become very aggressive if you mention her round rump or thick thighs. She has long, wavy white hair that is dyed, her natural hair color being brown. She often wears skimpy clothes with a white flame on them, considering it her symbol.
Sexuality: straight
Weapon(s): Two switchblades strapped to her thighs and a shotgun.
Main Power: Pyrokinesis. Can manipulate fire and create it out of thin air using only her mind. When truly furious goes into "Rage Inferno" where her whole body is covered in flames.
Sub Power: None.
Personality: Violet is a very unstable person. Considered bipolar, she can be very friendly and personable at one moment and the next be ready to rip you to shreds. She leans towards physical violence in order to get her way, and if she doesn't she will flip the fuck out. Violet is a very self centered person, but if you manage to get on her good side, she will swear by her life to protect you. Like with her gang, she might be rough with you still but it is with love, and she will treat you like family. Get on her bad side though... well, let's just say you'll regret it.
History: Violet was raised by her mother, her parents being divorced and her father running off with another woman. Believe it or not, Violet was actually a good student up until her Junior year, where the school had a turnover and new teachers came in. She didn't like any of them, and most were real bastards to her, so she slowly faded out of school until eventually she barely ever went. It was also around the time her mother found a new boyfriend.
Instead of going to school, Violet found another place to put her time and energy. A few years ago, downtown Metropolis was overrun with gangs that were constantly at war with one another. Most couldn't even walk down the street without a weapon. Sick of this, Violet started her own gang to set things straight, naming it "Devilspawn." Originally it was just a group of stupid high schoolers that acted as vigilantes and beat back gangs that got a little too aggressive, but as a few years passed and the gang grew so did another gang. The competing gang started a fight with Devilspawn, and when they went straight for Violet, she lit them up not with a gun but with real fire. She discovered that she was a mutant, with the power to manipulate and create fire from her own mind. The others became afraid of Violet and her gang, leaving Metropolis all together.
The gang now is used as a sort of, violent neighborhood watch. Things were running smoothly, until one night all the gangs that had turned tail and fled came back— but with the force of the Voodoo Man. They took out many of the Devils, and this infuriated Violet, because they were like family to her. She swore revenge on the Voodoo Man for causing her 'family' such pain, and now searches him out to give him what he deserves!
Other: Is the leader and founder of the largest gang in Metropolis, "Devilspawn." Their symbol.


Real Name: Maxwell Weiseman
Nickname(s): Max
Hero Name: Phaser
Hero or Villain?: Hero
Gender: male
Age: 17
Appearance: Max is a tall but thin boy, with little to no muscle mass at all and his height a little above 6'5". He has shaggy, somewhat outgrown black hair that falls over his matching black eyes that are always hidden behind thick lenses on a studious pair of black glass frames. He always has a somewhat sad look on his face, with a sharp chin and soft bone structure, thin lips and straight brows. Max is a little sensitive about his longer nose, as well as his pale complexion that always seems to lack proper blood flow. He always wears clothes that are a bit too big on him and seem baggy, most often seen in his school uniform. If you asked people what his best physical feature was, they most likely would say he has a "cute ass."
Sexuality: demisexual
Weapon(s): Metal-toed boots and metal knuckles
Main Power: Teleportation. Can travel at maximum a few blocks away, and as far as consecutive teleportations, the further away he has to teleport one after another the harder it is. Just in fights, teleporting within a few feet he is able to do it much more easily. Overdoing it could make him pass out.
Sub Power: By extending his palm out flat or using the top of his forearm to create a shield of plasma. It can only last for a few hits each, and can immediately shatter if it's hit with a full blast of another's power. He can only create one in the span of a couple of hours, and it is only about 1 and a half feet at maximum for length and width. Physical attacks don't do much damage to it.
Personality: Max is a very quiet soul. He's fairly shy and soft spoken, often preferring to be alone than amongst others. He is often trampled on because of his passivity but Max never complains about it. He is respectful and kind, and will help others as long as he doesn't have to interact with them.
History: Max has been second place his entire life. Always a straight B student, the second child, the silver trophy winner in everything he attempted— he never could win first place. His mother and father were devoted to his older brother and completely bypassed little Max, never recognizing his second rate achievements.
He really lived a normal life however. A devoted student, though a bit shy and shut away from anything social, he really tried and never complained about anything. Max simply kept to himself, head down.
And just like any teen, he had love interests. Max had a crush on this girl named Amber for two years of school, but never attempted to talk to her. Walking home from school one day, Amber was looking at her phone and walked out in front of a bus that was driving too fast down the road.
Max, without thinking, ran out and grabbed her. But, suddenly, they were on the other side of the road. Passerby were shocked, whispering to each other about the weird teleporting mutant.
Amber was scared of him, even though he had saved her, and ran away to avoid him completely at school. Max was heartbroken. But he didn't complain.
He later found out that those who had whispered around them at the corner were not normal passerby. They were puppets of the Voodoo Man, seeking to torment the innocent mutant. Max wasn't angry, but he was upset. He wanted to defeat the Voodoo Man, not for himself, but so no one else can be hurt like he was.
Other: Cannot see more than two feet in front of him without his glasses. Senior in high school. Has fairly bad social anxiety.

Aaaand it's up!

I edited the character sheet so now you are able to make villains as well. @Burning Kitty was right that two different sheets weren't needed. If you already filled out a sheet you don't have to put the couple new things in since they really are just for villains anyway.

The Band of Not-So-Heroes: A Superhero Comedy

Welcome to Metropolis!

Dear Hero,

As you may know, a threat has come to our great city. You may have encountered its effects already. People becoming extremely powerful, beyond normal standards and some who were not even mutants beforehand, like yourself. They are being changed by someone manipulative, a person of a dark spirit who has it out for Metropolis. He calls himself "the Voodoo Man."
Innocent people are being brainwashed by this man, and becoming these ferocious monsters who attack others for no apparent reason. They are villains.
You and other mutants are our only hope to eliminate not only these villains, but eventually the Voodoo Man himself.
Please, meet with the others at the town hall if you are willing to be a part of this Generation of heroes that will save Metropolis city.
Please, save us.

The Mayor of Metropolis
Stephen Hans

What is This?

"HEY, SHMUCK! OVER HERE!"
You're attention is pulled away from the formal layout of the first OOC post to a girl with wavy long white hair, dressed in an outfit of skimpy red clothes that were a bit too tight on her. She's sitting on a chair, not at all properly, with an annoyed look as she gets tired of waving you over.
"Are you deaf? Get your ass over here! Don't you want to know what this is?"
With much hesitation, you move closer, glancing around as if expecting an ambush.
"Glad my hair is dyed white, now no one can see all the gray hairs I just grew from waiting for your slow ass! Anyways, Cherrywitch made me explain this role play to you. The name's Violet."
She went to shake your hand, but stopped, realizing she was imaginary and her hand would go right through. Oh well, the existential crisis could wait for later.
"Alright, lets get this over with! We're in Metropolis right now, if you're blind too and didn't see the sign when you walked in. It's usually a fairly normal city— drugs, bunch of hobos, a huge gang in downtown _{that I may run} buuutt not too bad for a big city, right? Well, that semi-decent environment is getting fucked up by Sir Douchebag himself, The Voodoo Man. That little shit caused a bunch of trouble for all the heroes coming here to the Town Hall as well as normal city goers! Every person with strong negative emotions and having an insane greed for something can be manipulated by VooDouche. He attacks innocent people with these others he controls, making them into villains and promising them something great in return. We don't know what the hell is problem is, but I'm sure knocking a few teeth out will give him some sense! The other heroes can be natural mutants like me, or probed around by aliens or scientists or whatever, I don't fucking know. You think Cherrywitch gives a flying shit? As long as the character isn't fucking Godzilla I don't think there's going to be a problem. She's too lazy to correct anything anyway, the stupid bi—"
It seemed that Violet had run out of time and you have to get going.
"Eh, whatever. You get the gist. If you don't, ask the Grand Creator Cherrywitch, or try this thing for more information. Yeah, and don't let the door hit you on the way out!"

Rules

Nothing crazy, don't worry. ^_^
1. All RPN rules apply.
2. No overpowering your characters. We all start out clumsy and somewhat weak at first and then grow stronger together.
3. No fighting OOC. Just because your characters hate each other doesn't mean you guys have to hate each other.
4. I would like at least a paragraph per character at least, preferably with decent grammar, punctuation, and some variation in sentence structure. I can understand if you can't manage that for some reason (like if you're ill or you're wifi is down), but let me know. I don't bite. This isn't a high school writing class, but it just makes it more interesting and easier to read for other players.
5. Cursing is perfectly acceptable! Have a curse fest for all I care. WOOOO! (But, uh, try not to make that your character's entire dialogue...?)
6. There most likely will be some gore like teeth being knocked out or people getting shot, but just don't go too extreme, alright?
7. If it really gets to that point, just freaking fade to black. Nasty.
8. This is a comedy. Try to be original/funny with your characters! Not saying there can't be some sad backstory, but try and keep it on the light-hearted side. This is for laughs, man.
9. I can make and break these rules at any time. YOU WILL OBEY ME, PEASANTS!

@Burning Kitty Just a few things as to like what they became a villain for, and more stuff I'll figure out later when I'm not half dead from the flu.

ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUUNCH

@FallenTrinity Aaaaaaah


I'll post, like, tomorrow. It'll be crap and most likely very confusing due to a flu medicine induced lack of rationality, but don't even worry about it bro...
