Been awhile since I last RP'ed anywhere but I'm used to the generic super hero stuff. Even more so that I recognize a person or two here that I've done it with before.

Any openings left to join?

@DarkRecon yes, we have openings, but depending on when you get your CS approved you'd might have to wait until the beginning of the next story arc to start posting.

hello! I'm interested in this concept! I took a peek at the starter that's already up too and I love it haha, looks like it'll be a lot of fun ^_^ if there's room for another, I would love to apply... though the hero character I have in mind is a female, and of the character sheets officially posted already it looks like all but one is female xDD I don't want to like overload the group with fem characters lol and if @Zapdos feels the same then I'm happy to just chill out and watch how things progress (and maybe jump in later if there's room/opportunity?)

on the other hand, if nobody cares either way lol, I'd be excited to whip something up and submit a character application! <3

thanks for the consideration and I hope this was the right place to post, apologies if not ^_^' hope you all had a good christmas (if you celebrate) and happy new year in advance! <3

Hi cosmic! Thank you, I do my best to make my RPs enjoyable for everyone. I don't have a gender quota, feel free to apply with whatever gender you'd like. Just keep in mind what I wrote in the OOC. Keep in mind, depending on when you're accepted you may have to wait to post until the start of the next arc so that the narrative flow isn't interrupted.

Merry Christmas to you also and have a Happy New Year!

Went ahead and approved @cosmiccowgirl via PM, so don't be surprised to see a new CS in the Characters tab.

@Silver Carrot just to be sure, Madison is going to strike the dragon when it gets closer? Do you mind if I write how that plays out or did you have another thought? You can PM me if you want any information to be revealed IC or something. I could totally be missing something here, so if so that's on me.

Enjoying the first posts, should be fun to see how the fight plays out!

Oh, Madison's plan is to fire her hand at the dragon and try to get some steel wire wrapped somewhere. It could fail and strike the dragon instead. It could just outright miss. I don't mind leaving that to you.

Sounds good, I will proceed! Not quite sure how it will turn out yet, so stay tuned for the reveal :P

First off, Happy New Year!

Second, I got a rather unique rough idea for character(s) though this feels more like a "Villain" profile than a proper "Hero" one. Just was messing with an idea here but I figured I show it just to get opinions. Both are also based on heroes I've used in other super hero type RP's in the past so one or more of you might remember them. Anyways, here's what I got:

Name(s): Unknown
Alias: Alien Angel and Alpha Coyote
Age: Unknown (Though both look mid 20's)
Gender: Female, Male
Family: Unknown (Nor do they wish to discuss it)

Appearance:
https://imgur.com/a/forum-rp-characters-1-ai-s4APQ5E
(Left) Alien Angel stands around 5'10" with an unknown weight.
(Right) Alpha Coyote stands 6'2". Weight unknown.
Besides their specialized suits, they also wear normal clothing. Usually jeans and a t-shirt with sneakers or basically anything to blend in with their current environments when not actively pursuing bad guys.

Superpower:
For Alien Angel, her power, as she calls it, is the "Meta Hack". One way to describe it is "technomancy" or "technology manipulation" (similar to "Sombra" from Overwatch series). She can basically use her powers to hack any technology near her to her whims, sometimes even upgrade, or even create "virtual windows" and a "virtual keyboard" for personal use out of thin air. In a sense, she's almost like a living, walking PC with a personal internet connection. It can even bypass most, if not all, forms of security measures if she uses her powers raw and not through an actual PC though doing so through this method will set off all sorts of alarms and other security systems if not used through a "Meta Hacked" PC. How it exactly works though is unknown.

For Alpha Coyote, he calls his power by the simple term "Ki Control". Similar to fictional sources like cartoons and anime, he can literally use his own bodies energy as a weapon to power up to "super soldier" like levels. It's unknown what "Ki" based powers he actually has but outside of it's general "power up" it's been reported that he uses it as a healing factor both on himself and anyone he touches via skin contact to increasing his bodies durability to block a bullet but is mere "rumors" based on duo's activities.

Skills:
Alien Angel is the brains since she knows her way around technology in general but she isn't the "best" at it since her "Meta Hack" is what allows her to compete with those that are pure-skilled hackers. She's no dummy and can operate and hack even without her powers but at the same time, isn't the "best" when compared to others.

Alpha Coyote is the brawn but not your typical dumb muscle. Reports say he's a skilled fighter. Military trained with a Close Quarters Combat or C.Q.C. fighting style or so rumors say.

Outside of the above skills, anything else is unknown.

Equipment:
Information varies here but their "sneak suits" are their trademark. For one, it utilizes cloaking tech to literally make them invisible as well as avoid certain detection methods such as thermal heat vision, night vision and such but it's said you could spot "shimmers" of them when they move. Outside of this, they've been known to use non-lethal weaponry of various kinds to even drones.

Personality:
For Alien Angel, "outspoken" could be one word to describe her. Not afraid to speak her mind in English and some Spanish even when it's considered rude.

Alpha Coyote is the opposite. "Stoic" could be another one word description. Mostly quiet unless spoken to. He even speaks like he's a robot or in a monotone-like voice.

However, as is shown in their known Biography, they both have trouble with "lab coats", doctors and those that "follow rules" as both stated. Read below for more details.

Biography:
Not much of the personal history is known of the two "Vigilante" that are called Alien Angel and Alpha Coyote. From where they were born or any relatives or family, it seems both are literal "ghosts" in today's society.

But there are known things. For one: both are victims of experimentation and "escapee's" from said experimentation. And two: a well-known mad scientist that goes by the name "Cauldron" was the one that reportedly granted the duo with their powers. Not just them but even across the globe it's said Cauldron is one of an unknown number of individuals performing highly illegal experimentation. If not directly, Cauldron has a "presence" among such individuals.

It's said that the duo had been hunting the mad scientist down as "Vigilantes" or any criminal activities they happen to come upon. It's unknown how long the two have been doing this exactly but the earliest police reports that have possible connections to them state it might have been three years ago but due to their "stealth" behavior, it's never been proven.

And for the duo, one lead they got on Cauldron has led them to Lafayette City...

Relationships: None but it's been reported that they have "supporters" of some kind.

Extra: There have been stories that Cauldron himself bred the duo and others straight out of a hidden lab. Meaning Cauldron COULD be the duo's father or creator. Hence why they don't wish to discuss such a past. It's also possible that perhaps the duo has affected "others" or "crossed paths" briefly with certain individuals due to their vigilante work...

@DarkRecon Happy New Year (belated) to you also!

That said, I have to reject these characters for hero roles. The hacking power seems too close in nature to Byte's character and I've kept it to one hero per writer so that I can manage things more easily and that everyone gets a chance to shine equally. I'm honestly surprised this came up more than once, since it hasn't ever in every RP I've ran in the past decade, but I apologize and have added that to the rules in the first post. I could maybe see them in an adversarial role though. Let me know if that interests you, I have an idea or two on how that could happen.

Yeah I did say that this felt like a "Villain" type profile since these two aren't apart of the Hero team. It COULD happen later mind you but as "rivals" or as you said "adversarial" is an option but I wasn't sure if that was a good idea since it seemed you wanted everyone to join as a hero.

And yeah, I do know there's already a "hacker" on the team too as you said so I knew Alien Angel wouldn't be needed even if that said character doesn't have a power similar to the Meta Hack design. If anything, I made her the opposite because of that in terms of powers and personality.

Also your right about a two character submission being too much for you to track. Plus, most of the team I noticed are females...so if I want to start on the hero team, I have to focus on perhaps just "Alpha" but slight tweak the history part perhaps and other related info.

I don't mind doing an adversarial role though if you feel I could do "filler" stories at least for your team involving the duo and the mad scientist but only if you think it's necessary. If not, then I'll just submit "Alpha" if anything.

@Scarifar seems good, he is approved! Go ahead and post him in the Characters tab. If you can post by tomorrow, cool, just do what everyone else did. If not, skip the first round of fighting and after I post, you can write something where Daniel is late, interacts with the receptionist, she gives him the address and he runs there through his power and fights like everyone else. Given his powers, it seems plausible enough and I don't want to force you to rush a post.

@DarkRecon there is no "gender quota" here. If you want to keep both characters in an adversarial role, that's cool, but if you just want to edit the CS so it's Alpha only that's fine too. Just let me know your preference and we can go from there!
