@Dead Cruiser When we have at least 2 more CS's accepted I'll start the OOC and IC. The first arc is all about the attempt at Queen Mera's life while visiting the seven kingdoms. Once the confrontation with the Creature Queen goes down we could take the story a few different directions if you guys want.

_______________________________________________

Name: Brent 'B.A.' Ashwood
Codename:

Age: 25
Home: Sub Diego
Powers/Abilities:

Brent possesses enhanced physical attributes, the ability to breath under water, as well as giant growth up to twenty feet tall. Strength limits at regular size is roughly six tons, and his strength increases with his size.

Weaknesses:

He's as fleshy as the next human with gills. Though time under the seas has given him a degree of durability that's resistant to small arms fire and basic bladed weapons.

Equipment: light weight body armor/wet suit.

Experience: Two years operating in the shadows in-costume, and he's lived in Sub Diego since it sank three years ago.

Reason For Joining: Aquaman rescued Brent right after Sub Diego sank several years earlier and made quite the impression. Over the last two years BA has tried to become 'the Batman of Sub Diego'.
Appearance:


BRIEF Bio:

Brent recently moved out west to live with his older sister when an enemy of Aquaman's spliced the DNA of several thousand civilians in San Diego and sank part of the city with it. The then 22 year old Brent had just started going to community college and had considered joining the Coast Guard. His sister and nephew still live in San Diego on the surface, unaffected physically from the disaster.

Notes:

* Brent was a high school state champion on the swimming team, diving team, as well as the school's wrestling team. He's a natural in the water.

* His home town was originally Bristol, VA.

* He's worked with Aquaman on three different occasions.

How about you create an OOC/IC so we can see how many people we actually got?

@Omega Man

Name: Orgaan

Codename: none

Age: 28

Home: None. Orgaan hails from the Exsules, a nomadic tribe of deep sea raiders.

Powers/Abilities: Orgaan's people possess a number of strengths and flaws as a result of their physiology and upbringing:
  • Physique ~ The strength, durability, and stamina of the Exsules is known in many parts of the oceans. They're toughness is particularly well known as they are among the few that are able and willing to brave the deepest and darkest depths of the sea where even other merpeople dare not venture to.
  • Warriors ~ The Exsules are a warrior people, trained from birth to fight and survive the harsh mistress of the deep sea. They excel in battle, and their upbringing has given them a lust for strength and battle that is quite infamous. According to some legends, the Exsules are said to grow stronger and wilder the closer they are to death.
  • Predator Form ~ A unique sort of transformation that an Exsilium can take if a situation is desperate enough. Their muscles almost double in size, and their already formidable strength is enhanced even further. Their attacks become far more wild and savage, and if left uncheck they can fly into an uncontrolled bloodlust akin to a school of sharks during a feeding frenzy.


Weaknesses: Though formidable warriors and valuable as allies, the Exsules are not without their issues. Their warrior culture combined with their upbringing as raiders makes most of them likened to deep sea pirates. Many of them roam in small packs or raiding parties willing to prey on any that look like worthwhile targets. They are also very proud, most of them refuse aid from any source or insist on fighting all their battles alone. The Predator Form only accentuates the flaws, as an Exsilium in Predator Form loses almost all ability to reason and must usually calm themselves down after some time or be subdued by their own allies before they can become a liability.

Equipment: Orgaan doesn't own any weapons of his own, but he and his kind are generally well-taught in using most any kind of Atlantean weapons, or really any weapons that they obtain for themselves.

Experience: 2 years

Reason For Joining: After being spared by Aquaman despite challenging him to a deathmatch, Orgaan swore a life debt to the King, declaring that such was the only way his pride would let him continue living.

Appearance:


BRIEF Bio: Orgaan grew up in one of the many Exsules parties. For most of his life, Orgaan followed the ways of his people, raiding along with his kinsmen and constantly training himself against his father, the party's chief. Until one fateful day, the raiding party attacked an Atlantean convoy that happened to be guarded by Aquaman himself. A brash young warrior, Orgaan challenged the former King of Atlantis to a deathmatch without a second thought. The Exsilium was defeated handily, but Aquaman was not one to kill needlessly. He spared the Exsilium, but Orgaan's father decreed that his son was to be considered dead regardless, disowning him on the spot for suffering defeat. With no more family or kinfolk, Orgaan knew of only one way to satisfy his warrior's pride. He swore a life debt to Aquaman, and has fought for the King ever since.

Well Double, this should be fun. Our characters do nicely reflect each other, both being from sea wandering cultures that change their shape.

To be fair, the Predator Form is less about changing shape and more about going into a Berserker Rage.

Also, about the Exsules: anyone familiar with Latin probably noticed that their name is merely the Latin word for Exiles, which is apt given the planned backstory I have in mind for the race. Basically it boils down to them being called exiles because they once ruled a kingdom of their own many centuries ago but that kingdom was lost to the ages and these wandering raiding parties are all that's left of the people.

If I can compare them to something, they're kind of like undersea Mongolians or Vikings.

I'm abstaining from DC movies after the Bizarro afterbirth that was Justice League. From what I hear Aquaman would be a great movie if it didn't have Aquaman in it, and therefore wasn't bound at the hip to Zac Snyder's crimes against humanity.
