Nah, man, you raise a good point. This corporation undoubtedly has a large amount of money and resources to throw at a project like capturing superhumans and selling them for profit. The SCP Foundation's purpose is to "Secure, Contain, and Protect" the knowledge of such beings from the public. The corporation in this rp will capture superhumans, only they can be a little more flamboyant about it, seeing as supethumans are common knowledge. Superhumans sold as slaves would make the corporation quite a pretty penny, I'd imagine.

Basically it's not impossible for a corporation to be able to do this.



I forgot these people existed, this sounds like similar to the ideas of this RP's corporation. Am I right? Just replace SCPs with meta-humans.

I have some questions about the RP. When, and where, will it start? Will all of the players be put together? Is there PvP allowed? What's the end-goal, or will it be revealed later on?

I would assume that the limits would be the degree of illusions. Is the illusion based purely on sight, or can your character make people think that they're touching something when they're not? Is there sound? Smell? Taste? Is there a maximum amount of people who will fall prey to the illusion at a time, or is it a radius? How accurate are these illusions? How long do they last? How intensely will your character have to concentrate in order to cause these illusions? This link might help you with some variations and limitations.


an interesting thought, how about the idea that the more of the five senses the fewer people he can affect? as an example, if an illusion is created to only affect one Sense it could affect 10 people, but if it involved all 5 it could only affect like 2 people (not exact numbers, but an idea of the scale of how things might work) and a similar idea to range.

Here's my guy from another RP.



How would I need to alter him to make him work here? Obviously he'll have to get captured, and I assume I'll have to get rid of the flight, but what else?

Random question, would it be a logical leap to say that if my character cast an illusion on himself he would in a way be able to understand other languages (like the Tardis is able to translate things)?

I could see him making himself High with it, but I don't know how it could give him abilities he doesn't have.

Sooooo @Prince of Seraphs I edited my CS with a revamped power and (very slightly) edited backstory. Looking good now, or is there something else that's glaring me in the face?

@Vetis not being the ruler here, but just a guess. I can probably tell what the verdict will be. As with my previous ones, most of the abilities applications of that ability are powerful enough to be used on their own, let alone all together. Take mine for example. I used both fear manipulation and ion manipulation, which both had many sub uses. Most of those uses were, on their own, a power of their own right. Just thought I'd let you know :3

Man you guys have posted a lot. I'll try to cover all of this.



If you could detail the limits on his power that would be good, I think like taking down a whole building might be a bit much but pulling up shields to defend himself and others would be alright.



This is likely more my fault for not going into any sort of detail about the bad guys but I think if a kid with the ability to smash rocks together was arrested the Corporation would have enough influence to be able to pick him up from there. If that's okay with you.

Personally I like Rogue's version of ability mimicry better but yours looks pretty good. Accepted.



Looks fine, you're good to post it to the character tab.

I've just been lurking around, waiting for the RP to start. I'll post in the OOC when necessary, but it is mainly just character sheets and critiques that have been posted. So, I'm just a waiting.


Just making sure, in a lot of RPs I'm in at the start someone will voice interest, post and CS and never be heard from again. I just wanted to make sure you were still here.

I'm thinking of joining, but the whole "evil corporation" thing seems a bit cliche. That and the fact that we're slaves (which doesn't seem very likely if we actually have strong fighting powers) makes me hesitant to join.


The evil corporation thing probably is a bit cliche given that it pops up in almost every form of superhero lore, the MRD, Cadmus, Primatech, Renautas, its a fairly common practice which is generally why it works so well. The corporation we're talking about is very powerful and influential, it has the resources and reach necessary to pull something like this off. Besides not every meta has a strong fighting ability, one of our people has psychometry, I have Intangibility which is more a stealth skill. Also not ever meta is sold, some are used in lab experiments, some are forced to work for the corporation and some are actually employed there.

Interested if there is still room. Getting ready for work but should have a character to you sometime today.


Yes there is still room.

Here's my guy from another RP.

Meta human soldier looks good but you're going to have the change the power. What he's able to do now is just too far reaching. Perhaps simply telekinesis or telepathy or something related but you're going to have to tone it down. Also if you could convert this to the CS format of this RP that would be great.



I have some questions about the RP. When, and where, will it start? Will all of the players be put together? Is there PvP allowed? What's the end-goal, or will it be revealed later on?
@Prince of Seraphs I should I mentioned your name, you may have missed it by accident.


Actually I just got up and man have you guys posted a lot. But to answer your second question mentioning is probably the best way to get my attention.

To answer your first question when I posted this I didn't expected it to get this much attention so I haven't really thought out the end game all that clearly, I would welcome any brain storms anyone might have. Depending on the numbers we get we might all be together or we might be separated into smaller groups to do certain things. PvP is most definitely allowed just try not to kill anyone without permission and I'm thinking for the start this is a rough overview of what happens.

The Center is equipped with a security grid that dampens powers except for one well fortified room (like the Danger Room) where the metas are trained and show cased. The explosion creates a hole in this security grid and a bunch of metas flock towards it. Since I've not decided exactly where the Center is and getting such a large group away from it would be difficult I think an NPC teleporter should move the group to some common location and then promptly die from the stress of moving so many people so far away. That's about what I have so far.

Also and this is for everyone, I forgot to put the "Gender" category in my CS. It's there now right below age so if everyone could add that it would be a huge help.

@Prince of Seraphs Yeah in terms on my backstory, I was trying to come up with a way for Norvandell to be able to determine exactly what his ability was. Now that I think about it, capturing Norvandell when he was arrested is probably more likely. I could edit the backstory a bit.

@Prince of Seraphs I can try and help. Here's something you can use - place the prison at the outskirts of a medium-sized US city and let the heroes go on a road-trip out of the US and into Canada/Mexico. That way they have a destination and a general direction, and could meet with resistance along the way.
