Circus of The Supernatural

Ok, added the powerset to my character. Let me know if there are any changes needed.

Circus of The Supernatural

@Archmage MC

Now that's more like it! She's good in my book! Ya just gotta wait for the Co-GM to accept her.

Curious though, does she already have powers, like before the contract?

@Majoras End

Yeah. The contract is more like a demonic contract, IE the ringmaster gets a good chunk of control. But the contract also makes it so she can stay bound to the world, and also removes a ton of bad luck. Want a power list?

Circus of The Supernatural

Not exactly sure what you want for the audition sort of thing. Something like what I've got? If this role and such doesn't work, I can change it. Also let me know if anything else needs to be changed. Guessing maybe appearance?

Light

Light Void

Shining Star of the Void

Their Appearance

The Date they Joined the Circus: A few months before present time.

The Act they perform when not on the combat team - Daredevil
Power gained from the Contract: Bound to the world
Cost: Light can not lie at all to anyone, nor can she intentionally bring things into the Void unless the Ringmaster says so.

Why they Joined the Circus.
- Light joined the circus more for fun and the Ringmaster was her best choice to do what she was there to do. Sure, she is there to make sure the balance of the world is kept, but the Ringmaster was one of the more fun ways to do her job. Considering it was him, a shady necromancer, or a bunch of dark wizards following some weird cult, Light decided the circus would be way better. Besides, being part of the circus was better for her conscious, her downtime, and overall just nicer to be around.

Their Biography
- "Biogrophy huh? Well, I guess I can talk a little about myself. So, first things first. I'm a Void Demon, from the Void, if you couldn't tell by the whole title thing. But thats not why you asked me to talk about myself right? No one is interested in what the Void is or what goes on there I'm sure. So lets talk about this whole circus thing!
Well, you see, the Ringmaster was probably my best choice to do what I came to the world to do. What is that? Well, to put it simply, to keep the balance of this world. I'm surprised so many supernatural things want to disrupt that! Don't they know how utterly bad that can be? Apparently not, considering. And while the Ringmaster wasn't my only choice to help me along with that, he was easily the best. Preferably I would've liked to not be bound to a contract, but it couldn't be helped. I mean, you should've seen the atrocious bad luck I had when I popped into this world from a void rift. There was no way I could do much of anything with luck so bad it made a slapstick cartoon look like a peace rally! Also things felt... really weird. Its hard to describe. But thats in the past now.
And I'll be honest, this contract thing isn't all that big of a deal. Void creatures don't have souls, so all I have to do is follow some simple things, a few commands here and there, and participate in something I enjoy. This circus thing is really fun. Get to do all these weird things as long as they're dangerous and risky. And every day more and more things are thought up by these humans, so I'll never run out of material! It'd be nice if I didn't have to fight everything when I'm out doing that part of my job, but apparently very few supernatural or demon things actually wanna talk. Oh well, guess that can't be helped. Shame for most of them too, I'm sorta built for combat. Kinda have to be, considering most things who try to upset a world's balance tend to be violent or require violence to deal with.
But still, the circus is fun! And sometimes I can give out autographs! Guess people don't care too much about the teeth when they know you wont hurt them. And I don't touch them long enough for them to feel the entropy of the Void, so I don't have to worry about that little snag either!"

Their Connections
- Light is a relatively new person to the circus, only having been there for a few months. She tends to come off as an airhead due to her playful nature and her attempts to try to be friendly to everyone, plus her flirty nature doesn't help much either. Although sometimes she lets slip her actual intelligence, which tends to throw those who know her off guard. <Insert rest when cast is finalized>

Their Audition
- After watching such spectacular performances from many different acts, out came someone who looked like danger. The white and striped American looking outfit she wore was one thing, but it also looked like this performer wore some kind of mascot helmet or something. Well, thats what the onlooker thought before they saw her eyes and mouth were far too expressive for a mask. Whatever she was wearing, it was really impressive! Without saying much besides a bow, this lady moved over to what looked like a junk pile. Throwing a crate aside, she started to rip apart the scrap with her bare hands and use the scrap to make a makeshift, almost cartoony looking scrap cannon.
With a bow and a smile, this crazy lady jumped into something that looked like it could explode any minute! And explode it did, launching this person out and through the bigtop. Or, it looked like she would fly right through the tent, until the onlookers saw that she had vanished in a blur of absolute blackness. And not long after, the crate that had been set out before opened up, revealing the daredevil lady unharmed! With a short bow, she cleaned up the mess she made and made her way backstage, ushering in the next act.

powerset

Void Energy: Being made of the Void, Light's life energy is Void energy. Void energy gives Light the feeling of 'being hollow' when touched, scanned, and even gives off a bit of a creepy feeling when even looking at her. Since Light's energy is 'non existent', she is unable to be sensed for and is invisible to omnipresence abilities, nor does she appear in any kind of 'future visions'. If anyone or anything attempts to steal her energy, she will instead steal theirs at their drain rate and they will be affected by a greater version of Reality Siphon. Void Energy also gives Light a resistance to light, shadow, and divine attacks, an immunity to reality warping and soul based attacks, and any enchantments or spells that don't directly target her don't affect her, both positive and negative. Since Light is from the void, any brainless hostile void constructions will see her as friendly, and wont attack her.

Regeneration: Light can regenerate herself from nearly any harmful state as long as she has enough energy, including mental ones. Energy gained by Reality Siphon and her own natural reserves are used to fuel her regeneration. Chemical afflictions and strong magical afflictions take longer for her to regenerate from. Light passively gets enhanced natural regeneration. Light can reattached severed limbs, and has free control over her body should her head be knocked off. Light doesn't bleed, and is slightly malleable.

Void Shade: Light can astral project a shade of herself that can't interact with the outside world besides her Void Energy and Reality Siphon abilities. Light can pass through solid objects, fly, and makes no noise while moving besides a low, creepy, ominous hum. While in this state, Light's body is comatose, although she can return to her body whenever she wishes.
Should Light be killed, or more accurately her body, a Void Shade will emerge from where it was. This Void Shade has a great weakness to banishing and binding magic, is much slower than the normal Void Shade, and moves very slowly through walls. Eventually, Light's body will reform on the shade, although she will inherent any magical aliments she gained while in her shade form, which she can't regenerate or break herself free of on her own and must rely on outside magic or break those spells in order to cure herself.

Void Wraith: Should Light gain a ton of energy from Reality Siphon, she can temporarily embrace the void and turn into a Void Wraith. This form is much the same as her Void Shade, except she can freely interact with the physical world, her Reality Siphon now affects anything near her instead of things she touches, and all her other abilities are enhanced.

Shade Shift: Light can dash forward with intense speed over a very short distance. While dashing, Light is immune to all attacks that aren't Chaos based. This ability has a noticeable cooldown between uses, which can be reduced by energy gathered by Reality Siphon.

Super Strength: Light has greatly enhanced strength that is modified by her emotions. A sad state will make her weak, but an energetic or angry state will make her very strong. Being bound by Iron or Silver will sap Light of her strength.

Adaptation:
Light adapts quickly to surrounding terrain if its harmful to her, and will keep these adaptations until she leaves that terrain.

Reality Siphon: Since Light is from the Void, she steals the life and reality of the physical world. Anything she touches will lose its reality and energy as long as they are in contact with Light. If something stops touching Light, they will regain their stolen attributes over time, but while they have lost these attributes, they can only gain energy from their own metabolism. Should something lose all of its energy, it'll die, and if it loses all of its reality, it'll fade into the Void itself, losing everything in the process. It takes some time for something to lose all of its energy or reality, so unless your touching her consistently for more than a few days she can't kill you with this ability. Beings can have varying degrees of resistance to her energy stealing portions of this ability, but only void beings or reality warpers have a resistance to losing reality. Divine beings lose their reality quickly and have to be careful around her. This power is always on.

Pocket Space: Light can store objects inside a space inside her dress she calls 'pocket space'. Light can only store non living things in her pocket space.

Void Slip: Light can punch small personal wormholes and use them to teleport to any place in her sights or an extremely familiar place such as a base, an exit hole appearing at the spot she wants to teleport to. Should this exit hole not be placed on a solid object, Light will have a notable delay before she comes out of it. Only Light, things she wears, and objects stored in her pocket space can travel through these holes. These holes stay open for only a brief time.

Gift of Tongues: Light can understand and speak any language. She can't read or write any written language though.

Natural Weapons: Light's fingers end at sharp points that let her slash things. She likewise has sharp teeth much like a shark or piranha and feet that come to very sharp points she can use. Since her feet are so sharp, she has to step delicately or leave little holes wherever she walks, and has a hard time maneuvering on non solid surfaces like snow, sand, mud, ext...

^{June 2nd, 2019 - 11:32 | Justice League HQ}

What a day. First training with one of the prime league members, something Willow questioned considering she was a robot. Maybe she was there just to make obsticles for people, considering thats what she was doing during the training. At least she could say she got something out of it, learning a few tricks at arranging materials so they wouldn't crumple as easily to super strength punches. And who had the foresight to know that might come in handy, considering what was to come with the whole atlantian invasion.

That was a fun thing for Willow to hear on the intercom. So far it had all been small time stuff or Batman requests, but here was something actually big and heroic. With a joyous expression on her face, Willow answered the call as soon as she could. The internet videos could wait, now was the time to beat up a lot of bad guys! Of course for some reason even though it was an invasion, Willow wasn't allowed to use lethal force on the invading atlantians. While this would make things trickier for her, it was always a neat hero challenge to not just delete the opposition.

Turning into her cloud form, Willow flew to the coast, where the invading atlantians were approaching the city. While Willow could probably make a weapon or two that could help with the invading sea mosnters, Willow figured she'd be better used dealing with the approaching atlantian soldiers. After all, they were reliant on their metal weapons and armor. And metal was one of the easiest things for Willow to mold to her will. As other leaguers did what they thought they should do, Willow swooped down at the edge of one of the atlantian battalions, coalescing on top of three of them as she ate their armor and weapons, turning the metal into a tesla turret that started to zap anything wearing atlantian armor that got nearby. When she had gotten the attention of some of the battalion, she turned back into her cloud form and flew away, looking for another angle of attack as a few atlantians had lost their armor, while others were getting zapped by non lethal electrical currents akin to a really big tazer.

She repeated the same tactic on other parts of the battalion, making sure to come at the angle of the sun to really disguise her approach. Soon there were tesla turrets littered around the streets where she had attacked, paralyzing any atlantians who approached. Hopefully the others were having the same success she had.

<Snipped quote by Archmage MC>

Thaaaat's basically it. The ringmaster isn't allowed to answer questions as to where the powers come from.

@Majoras End

Sounds good! That'll help out character motivations and all that very well.

Circus of The Supernatural (CoH Reboot)

@Majoras End So, basically the ringmaster gets them to sign a contract to get them as employees and possible fighters and thats it? I'm trying to get my head around what hes supposed to be. I mean, he can't take away powers on contracts the person has the free will to sign, that just makes no sense when there is zero incentive to do so. So it has to be something else.

I'll probably be going on the logic of. "This contract lets you do something you wouldn't normally be able to do, in exchange for occasionally letting the ringmaster call on you to do some fights and making you follow a basic tenant. And on the side you get to have fun in a cool circus with other weirdos."

Circus of The Supernatural (CoH Reboot)

Right now I'm figuring out how I want my character to be 'indebted' to the ringmaster, I assume thats what has to happen with the contact right? The Ringmaster is the 'mage' that controls everything or something akin to that?

Circus of The Supernatural (CoH Reboot)

This sounds fun. One question, does the character in question need to be human, or can they be a nice demon?

The Defiance Project

Once Light got her food, she started to eat it much like you'd see in a cartoon, notably in large chunks and an inhuman speed plates stacking high. Halfway through eating an entire chicken, half of it in her mouth, she noticed the newcomer and heard someone ask a question. Waving at the new lady, she swallowed the entire chicken like something out of a cartoon. "Hi Miss brittain. Fancy talk huh? Howdy!" Light said with a grin. "Metal huh? I'm a nomad looking for fun. Most people tend to not like cartoons. Or its my teeth, either or." Light said, answering Alexandra showing off her teeth to everyone before she dug into her food, more having been delivered.

@LemonZest1337 actually coming to think of it, full TF2 medic would be hilarious here. And I think your character and mine would get along well. Both surgeons, even if one of them is so insane he likes putting animal parts in people to see what happens. If you think that is a good idea I'll write up a sheet with a few power edits and whatnot.
