Current It takes some time for historical usernames to "black out". That being said, I personally think the feature is useless in the first place.

The only child of a RCMP officer and a (presumed) deceased mother, Haleigh was raised in a single-parent household within the Canadian confines of the city of Vancouver, British Columbia.

Due to her father's career choice, Haleigh tended to be left alone to her own devices, or in the care of neighbors or relatives as she grew up through her childhood. He often found it difficult to balance his work-life balance, which made it difficult for him to be in Haleigh's life. When he did, however, he would drag Haleigh out to the great outdoors, much like his father had done before him, hoping to inspire a love for nature within her.

Whereas most children would whine and complain, Haleigh instead took quite the likening to the fresh air, finding considerable joy in their family adventures in the Canadian wilderness—to the point she had decided to make it a career choice later on in life. She would spend her days as a trail tour guide, outdoors blogger, etc., all thanks to her father's teachings all those years ago.

Unfortunately for Haleigh, her love for the outdoors would ultimately rattle her life to its very core. A series of disastrous events had suddenly befell her one fine Canadian summer day, wherein her Hyperhuman gene had chosen to manifest and made itself quite prominent. Had it not been for H.E.L.P.'s involvement in evacuating and enrolling Haleigh into Pacific Royal all those years ago, she likely would've died that day, either from the angry mob out for her head or from her own powers.

Outside the academic uniforms that the school requires every student to wear, Haleigh tends to dress rather casual. Jeans, hoodies and the like all make up Haleigh's personal style. Most often this happen to include various brands such as Patagonia or Arc’teryx; expensive yet well-made articles of outdoorsy clothing she has come to favor over the years.

Haleigh isn't the type to focus on cosmetics, hair styling or such things; if she does so, it is usually minor. Make-up and hiking don't go together, unless you were planning on looking like a sweaty, ugly mess.

When Haleigh first started at P.R.C.U., she had been naught more than a timid disaster. Cautiously afraid of herself and the power she wielded, it was a worry born out of fear, and it certainly left a mark on Haleigh. She had rarely made an attempt to interact with anyone at the school upon the start of her studies, which became a frequent notation by her professors as well her therapists during their one-on-one meetings.

Fortunately for Haleigh, however, her apprehensive nature is all but gone. The combined effects of post-Hyperion trauma and a wanting desire to do right by her friends and fellow Hypes, Haleigh has long since become focused on the future, rather than the events of the past. She has become the epitome of her house's words; always willing to jump out of the frying pan and into the fire at a moment's notice to bring even just a slight bit of "good" into the world for a better tomorrow, if possible.

After all, being a bystander got people hurt. People were even killed because of it. Eventually, someone has to show the world that someone is willing to deal with the injustice—and Haleigh has decided that person is her.

Haleigh is connected to the very earth through a process known as Seismokinesis, or in layman's terms, the concept of seismic wave generation. Upon each step she takes, Haleigh has the potential to unleash a devastating tremor within the ground. These tremors, or otherwise seismic waves, will then begin to travel outward, ripping up the land and leaving a path of destruction in its wake.

L I M I T A T I O N S || A R E A O F E F F E C T

Like earthquakes, the seismic waves generated by Haleigh expand from an epicenter; in this case, being Haleigh herself. As a result, this means proximity places a massive limit on how dangerous her power could be. Someone in close proximity to Haleigh would certainly feel the full wrath of her hyperhuman ability, but should they instead be a decent distance away, the fallout would be lessened as the energy generated by the waves dissipates and the displacement weakens.

W E A K N E S S E S || M O V E M E N T

Despite the dangerous and destructive power Haleigh happens to wield, it has an extremely obvious flaw—it requires her to be on her feet to be of use. Any method of disabling movement can prevent Haleigh from using her ability, in turn keeping her feet off the ground.

Originally, I wanted Haleigh to come to terms with her power and the fact that she was now a Hyperhuman. I wanted to toe the line between Haleigh wanting to live a normal life but also feeling like a "freak of nature" and a danger to everyone around her. Given that this version of P.R.C.U. happens to be situated a few years in the future, however, I believe that it is already past the time to do such a character arc. Instead, I want to focus more on the internal conflict that had just begun to brew at the end of the roleplay (and later extended into this version) regarding Hyperion and the resulting fallout of the events that took place.

I also still want to plan a storyline regarding Haleigh's mother in particular sometime in the future. I touched on it briefly in the prior rendition of this roleplay, but nothing truly came from it. To throw a few ideas or concepts out there, it'd be certainly interesting if she somehow had connections to Alexandria or perhaps Hyperion, forcing Haleigh to take a stand between her long-lost parent and where her current loyalties lie.

"My father had a library in his office. He was always interested in historical works; I suppose it comes with the territory of working in the Mounties for decades."

Pausing her words, a focused, determined gaze fell upon Haleigh.

"To quote one of his books: It is better to have less thunder in the mouth and more lightning in the hand. Be that lightning."

"I came to Pacific Royal with the intention that they could help me. To make me better, in a sense. Adjusting to the fact that you're suddenly capable of sheer devastation with one, single step felt like an impossible task. I just wanted to be normal again."

Sitting up in her chair, Haleigh continued.

"That thinking was that of those who wanted to string me up and hang me by the rope. In this world of ours, there is no such thing as normality. We're not freaks just because we can shoot lasers out of our eyes or can command the elements at our fingertips. I want to show the world that, Hyperhuman or human."

"I wish I hadn't been so much of a bystander." Haleigh frowned, and then sighed. "It was only natural—to be afraid, of course. But maybe things would've been different."

Hello everyone,

Mr. Skimobile here (Kim for friends, so feel free). I've been play-by-post roleplaying on and off for decades now, from Pokemon to Star Wars to DND, all kinds of genres and settings. I like writing a lot, but I do have a full time job, so I won't be posting every single day. My other hobbies include boxing, painting, reading and running.

I suspect casual/advanced section would be a nice place for me to check out, but I'm not quite sure what the etiquette is regarding joining games. Can I just go into the OOC section and ask to join?

Looking forward to create nice things with you all,
Kim


There's multiple ways of joining a game depending on the tag:

- apply (usually the case, write a sheet and see if you're accepted)
- jump-in (just start rping)
- asking (sometimes rps listed as full might have a spot available)

"Sounds great. We'll be waiting for you, then." Kali responded with a gentle smile in return. For what it seemed, word of mouth appeared to do wonders for advertising. Issac certainly would be happy to hear that he would have another happy customer on his hands. On top of that, happy customers often meant big tips, which made Kali especially happy as well.

BUZZ!

Interrupting their conversation, Kali's phone vibrated within her pocket, alerting her to a text. It had been from work, with Jeffery asking her to set the dining room for today's service. Will do. Had a bit of a... Kali tapped away at her phone, pondering what word to use. Hiccup on the way to work. I'll be in shortly when the subway gets to my stop.

Pushing send, Kali slid her phone back into her pocket and waited for the train to finally arrive to her stop. Thankfully, it wasn't long before she managed to get her destination (and with no attempted robberies this time!). "No problem." She replied, standing up from her seat. Following the woman out of the tram doors and onto the platform, Kali continued speaking. "I'm there most days, so we'll surely see each other if you stop in sometime soon."
