In a world filled with the threats of evil mages, masterminds and monsters, only superheroes can save the day. And to gather the most powerful and capable superheroes from around the world is Team Awesome, a group of metas who take on the Cult of Tears, the Intergalactic Sulu Empire, and the Raven's Cross terrorrists. There is no limit to what is asked of these people, and thus, only the best, and the greatest, are accepted into their ranks. It's a position of power, fame, and great responsibility, from which one might save hundreds of lives. Of course, you never really wanted to be on that team anyway.
You were declined. You've finished your required training, you filled in the paperwork, but you were seen as too incompetent, too young, too hotheaded, too stupid. For whatever reason, you were not allowed into Team Awesome. But that's okay! You're a superhero, after all, and there's always a job for a superhero. As such, you've joined Team Mildly Competent, which safehuards Nevada from Hellspring, a biker gang that likes to cause annoyance to the locals. You fight heroically to protect the local pubs from rats and every now and then to help a cat out of a tree.
Good God your life sucks. Surely it can't get any worse, can it?

Rules:
- No doing anything I say you shouldn't do.
- Have fun. This is mandatory. If, at any time, you are bored, I will find you. And I will kill you.
- Don't do anything that you honestly believe might impinge on another person's enjoyment. I don't want to write out every way in which this can occur, and I frankly don't care if you godmod to all holy hell, as long as you manage to do it in a way that doesn't prevent others from having fun.

CS:

Name - this one's obvious
Alias - again, fairly Obvious
Powers - Make it fairly simple. No throwing islands like Superman, or moving at the speed of light. Think of supers like Spiderman, Captain America and Batman, with relatively weak powers compared to characters like Thor and Captain Marvel.
Appearance - I think you've all filled out this form so many times, I'd be surprised if anyone gets this wrong.
Relationship - This is a new one. I'd like you to fill in relationships you have with other player characters here. Do you hate one characters guts for some past grudge between you, or do you owe a debt to one of them? Feel free to be silly or weird, I will rarely refuse something (although I might propose a twist). I'd like each character to have at least one of these, although the first character may add it once there are more players.
Gear - Speaks for itself. Anything your character might use, not his clothing.
Important History - Anything in your character's backstory that's of particular note. Your father being killed by the villain you're going to be facing, that villain BEING your father, puberty making you grow the size of a small house, stuff like that.

I'm in, this sounds fun, I love superhero RPs. Let me know how this looks.

Name - Jack Hallow
Alias - The Hollow Man
Powers - Jack can eat anything and can eat endless amounts, any non-organic material he eats (concrete, metal, wood, etc.) temporarily replaces his skin if he wants it to, the amount of time depends on how much he eats. (he cannot use toxic materials like lead without becoming ill the same way any human would and needing treatment immediately after)
Appearance - Jake is 6 feet tall and weighs 180 pounds. He has pale skin and doesn't tan because his skin is regularly regrowing because of his power, he has no hair for the same reason and his eyes are blue. He usually wears simple blue jeans, T-shirts and sneakers.
Relationship - Shares Teleporto's trust and affection, liking the man and believing he is worthy of his trust. He doesn't really know the others too well but dislikes Deadbolt's willingness to kill, though he does respect him as a warrior. Likes Enki for his role as the protector of families. Has no strong opinion of Alyssa, yet, he may like her more or less as he gets to know her.
Gear - He carries a utility belt filled with various stones and metal objects like ball bearings. The rarer the material the less he has of it so his most common materials are steel and stone.
Important History - Jake was born with his power and as a child had pica, which meant that he had to be watched constantly because if he ate paper his skin would become incredibly brittle and if he ate dirt it would fall off entirely before regrowing, causing a lot of pain and opening him up for nasty infections which meant that as a baby he spent a lot of time in hospitals. As he grew older he learned to control his power and would protect other smaller kids from bullies by eating rocks and fighting, which got him kicked out of a lot of schools, and he still doesn't have a high school diploma.

Sounds like a badass! Accepted for sure. However, ima ask you a question. What is the reason Jack wasn't accepted into Team Awesome?
This should probably be a separate category on the CS, but it's something I'd like to know.

I was thinking it would be his lack of combat experience, he passed the training, barely, and when it comes to real combat, even though he fought a lot in school he pretty much just swings until someone is knocked out or maybe just his lack of a high school diploma.

Makes sense to me. Your char is fully accepted, I'll send you a PM when the IC is up! Hopefully we'll have more characters by then.

I'm interested, I'll try to get a CS up soon. But if I don't, then I won't be able to post for 4 days due to lack of wifi. But I am definitely in.

How serious do the characters have to be? As in, how "believable" do the powers have to be?

Name - Alexei Pavlov

Alias - Deadbolt

Powers - Eyes of Insight


Appearance -


Relationship -
1. Hollow Man- "This guy... I changed my view on him; a little bit. He's actually pretty brave... He charged that zombified crackhead without hesitating! I'm not saying he's out of my 'to-kill-list' but definitely, he's out of my 'to-massacre'list'. Good for him."
2. Druid- "This guy is still strange... However, his powers over nature was actually real as I've seen. He maybe gifted but I still call bullshit on him being nature's incarnate."
3. Teleporto- "This guy was actually pretty weak; vomiting and shit. However, he has the nerve to actually still talk to me. He may call be Deadshot, or whatever, but he's still a weak-ass motherfucker for me.
4. Enki- "This guy or whatever this person is gained some sort of my disdain. I don't trust this person who can change its form at will. But whatever, he's an ally for now, but I do hope he never goes off thinking that I won't end him if the need arises.
5. Invisible Girl- "This girl... There's just something different with her. Before, I didn't mind people talking to her or staring at her, but now, I just get pissed off when someone else talks to her. What is happening to me? Her eyes, her face, and that smile... I don't know. It maybe because I'm just low on milk or something. Perhaps, tomorrow I'll get over it.
6. Jake Mild, a.k.a Nerdlord- "This kid is actually cool, but annoying. Talking about batman and shit. However, he's so random that sometimes I just wanna shoot his face off. But truth be told, Nerdlord's efforts for the team is something I will never forget.

Gear - Alexei currently has the following gear; being a hitman:
1. Scoped Mosin-Nagant Rifle
2. 7.62×54mmR Cartridge and Bullets.
3. Glock 22
4. .357 Sig Bullets
5. Trench Knife; hidden under his belt.
6. Kevlar Vest
7. Black Gas Mask

Important History - Alexei's life started with a couple of illegal russian immigrants in the USA. The family apparently lived a normal life up until Alexei was already 15 years old. Their family was sold out to the cops as the authorities rushed after them; being illegal immigrants, the family had no choice but to run on, and on. Things got heated as their retreat was accompanied by sounds of guns in the background. As the family was escaping, they met a friend down in the dark alleys of the slums. The family considered themselves safe; that was until their father's head kissed a bullet. Their so called 'friend' was actually their father's dealer, and the deal had gone bad. The sounds of gunfire once again resounded in the alleys as Alexei found himself separated from his family.

Alexei began to live and survive on his own; doing some stealing and some scamming in order to get by. However, when he was 17, he met a person who had ruined his life. The man who killed his father. Grabbing a jagged knife, Alexei charged at the man; stabbing the figure madly. Suddenly, his eyes began to feel hazy as he saw things he couldn't have seen before. He could see inside the man, his knife piercing heart and lung. Alexei backed off as he got the man's weapon and ran off before the man's reinforcements could enact vendetta.

Alexei pondered in silence his unexpected powers. He could now see beyond, and within things... It seems the utter trauma had released the mutation from his eyes, and made itself known just now. The young boy now realized his mission... To rid the world of these vile men in order to prevent the things, that happened to his father, from happening to the other innocents out there.

It's been two years since his mission, and now, a professional assassin... Alexei Pavlov, now known as Deadbolt. The reason? Because corrupted men drop dead when they hear the bolt.

Not at all. I'm going for street-level, as I've said above, so nothing overly powerful. There are always bullshit ways to explain things.

Batman with guns, I love it. Gonna suggest a twist, feel free to ignore it.

The man who killed your parents was a well-known rich man, and after murdering him you were found guilty. Not only his allies and friends, but also the Russian government want your ass in jail or a grave. And that's the reason you weren't accepted into Team Awesome.

Sounds like an interesting However, ima suggest a twist, because I love doing that. Feel free to refuse, or maybe add it in.

Mother Nature originally created you to destroy all of humanity in a great purging. However, someone (your choice who, preferably another character) managed to convince you to disobey Nature and leave humanity in peace. Mother Nature seems to have forgiven you, but relations are tense, as this has proven you have a will of your own.
