Thanks! I was thinking of how to make it look more forum-like, but I was tired of taking so long on it lol. I was gonna include something on Kitsune too but since her following is small and she's more of an Urban Legend I declined.

[ New! ] Thread: Who’s your favorite Chicago hero?

[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ Next Page ]

WaffleWarrior:

So there’s been a ton of threads recently talking about everyone’s favorite heroes all over the world, but there hasn’t been one talking about hometown heroes. So here it is: Who’s your favorite Chicago-based hero and why is it Grim?

Professional Newbie:

Of all the heroes in Chicago you pick Grim? Sure the guy’s alright but he’s kind of a ham. I’ve seen less dramatic school girls at least they don’t have their own personal spotlights. Isn’t his power shadow based anyway? Seems stupid to handicap yourself.

Groovz:

Grim's drones are my favorite hero: I also self-destruct when anyone tries to get to know me

WaffleWarrior:

Being a ham is his thing and super heroic! It takes attention off the victims so he can get them out safe, and it’s not like the spotlights stay on the whole fight. Plus he has way more solved incidents than we’ve seen, I’m pretty sure he knows when to not announce his presence.

And yes, the drones! They’re super cool, I always feel safe when I spot one overhead. If anything happened in sight of one of them he’d be there in an instant!

Strawberry Moon:

actually i met grim a year ago. he used a lame one liner and finger gunned. huge dork. his voice really is as deep as the clips though. kind of has a weird growl to it i think he’s a cyborg lol

Sylaryon:

omg guys what if grim was the person who gave wraith his suit?? mystery solved

The_Night_Fears_Me:

First of all, that’s fucking stupid and here’s why. Grim's icon is a dog, he has it on his belt and all his drones are branded with it. Given the lack of any Reaper-like paraphernalia the common theory is his theme is based on a church grim - a dog. Do some research for once in your life.

Cubs Fan Chippy:

Sir are you suggesting my fanart of Grim as a dog in a cloak and holding a scythe is inaccurate? Also Wraith’s crazy.

Sylaryon:

If Grim didn’t want us to draw conclusions he should’ve chosen a different name. Of course people are going to think Reaper when he can disappear into darkness and uses shadows as weapons

AvalancheSupremacy:

This thread is going off track fast. Anyway, since Avalanche isn’t based in Chicago I’d say my favorite local is MetalHead

Sorry for the delay, I had an idea for how to stylize my sheet and spent some time doing that. I thought it was neat since we're only sharing public knowledge. With that being said, if you want a standard write up just let me know and I'd be happy to do so.

Kailani

@twave@Perse@Silver Carrot@Lurking Shadow

An excited chittering broke out in the cell at the exact moment Min-Ji even began with the first syllable of Kailani’s name, her tail wiggling - though thankfully not knocking into Ameliya. The shockwave from her was strange, but it must’ve been some equally strange greeting. As such as soon as the human was close enough Kailani licked her face, the happy high-pitched lilt of her chitters almost akin to the chirp of birds. The alien pulled herself from the cell to let Min-Ji out, for a moment eyeing the two guards on the floor, trying to be as quiet and non-threatening as possible.

The one with flaming feet tugged at her tail, and both the human women mentioned it was time to go. Kailani’s teeth snapped but finally she turned from the two men to follow.

At least, that was the plan until the ground accompanying the cell burst upwards like one of her own kind bursting forth - though this creature was much furrier than most of her species. All at once a familiar scent hit her nose, though far more concentrated. It was mouth watering, and no surprise who accompanied it.

The delicious words man has been busy! Randolph was covered in blood and other equally delicious bits and pieces, almost embedded into his fur - and then his aggression was melting away. He seemed disorientated, but he complimented her scent which caused the alien’s tail to thump. Immediately after he coughed up something directly in front of the alien, Kailani dipping her head down to sniff intently. After a moment she picked up the saliva covered gun barrel, it crunching and disappearing in her gullet.

Kai would be sure to share some of her meaty kills later!

With an excited shriek and a burst of chittering, she picked up Randolph as he pitched forward towards the ground. He was filthy! With a burst of speed the alien took off down the hall with the two humans, delicious words man safely ensconced in her large clawed paw. And maybe licked a bit. Just a little.

… It was a lot. He was covered in delicious bits.

Leaving the two extremely thankful guards behind, there was little to stop the group from merging back with the others. The alien’s plates shifted as a low, rumbling growl echoed from deep in her chest at the barrier of guards blocking their way - only for them to get obliterated by another being made of fur. Not as delicious as Randolph, but still good! Min-Ji had diverted to zap another human, and there was a bit of a scramble to secure the elevator. Kailani took the moment to lick some of the blood off her own jaws - then promptly got messy once more when she took notice of a writhing guard, on the floor with his veins a pronounced black. Struggling to breathe, clawing at his own skin. Dying.

Kailani had only the vaguest concept of mercy. When she scooped the man into her jaws and crushed his skull in one swift motion, it was more opportunity than compassion. Even curiosity, since he was obviously a rare human with his strange veins and spicy blood that tingled along her tongue and throat. The most limited edition of human snacks.

The Devourer stepped close to the elevator everyone was jamming into, the thing thankfully large and heavy duty - no doubt due to the size of some inmates. Still, it creaked ominously and shuddered as she laid her unoccupied paw inside it.

Immediately a cacophony of protests met her ears, giving Kailani pause. A moment passed. She tried again - and again, protests and even someone shoving at her carapace. Rude.

Taking a second to gently set the delicious words man down she stepped back, and it was a mere instant almost unseen to the human eye before the alien’s large frame was compacted back to the tiny girl with the ever present grin. It was just a lot bloodier now.

As Kailani stepped into the elevator in this much smaller form, the delicious words man took off - finding his own way? For a moment Kailani chittered in response to his strange tongue, it not quite right in her human throat. But he was a burrower, he could probably get anywhere if he wanted! He was a very capable ally.

Satisfied, Kailani looked around the elevator to take in all those congregated there. Finally, she settled to looking at Ameliya and, in a morbid echo of their interaction that very morning, grinned wider and pointed to her bloodied mouth.

”I’ve had so much food!”

Kailani

@Perse@ZephyrHope@twave

It was a little cold, what with the blasts of freezing ice going on all about her, but it certainly stopped the screaming from some of the guards! Plus, the sounds of shattering ice made happy little tinkling noises when they broke under claw or a thumping tail. Yes, Kailani quite liked the ice bird’s powers. The ice and people popsicles were even refreshingly cold on her tongue - though there was a smattering of said ice along her right side from a blast that got a bit too close. Not that it particularly slowed the giant alien.

Bzzzt!

Now that hurt! Kailani jerked around like a startled cat, in an instant crushing the stun baton and person using it in her jaws. She shook her head to make sure they tore apart, flashes of light coming from inside her mouth - but sadly, though the electrictricity burned along her somewhat softer underbelly, the inside of her mouth was wholly immune to the effect.

”All personnel fall back to cell blocks and choke points!”

Choke points sounded delicious!

What remained of the forward force of guards began to retreat, the flashing muzzles of their guns heralding it. For a moment Kailani considered following them to the elevators they were obviously heading toward, but as she pondered how delectable they’d be - with salivating glands and bullets pinging off her carapace - she finally decided against it. She had a pact to fulfill.

Was her tail on fire?

Twisting in the too-small corridor to look over her shoulder, Kailani broke out into a new waterfall of chittering seeing the fiery female perched on the end. Her six smaller back legs clicked against the tile beneath them excitedly, crushing remains of ice and splattering little bits of blood. Her hallway friend was coming along back to the cells!

And there was a very strange man introducing himself!

For a moment, the insatiable alien pondered eating the inmate as she had done to others earlier who hadn’t been part of the plan. After all, there was no muzzle to stop her. What would stop her?

"Only if you keep up!"

… Well, fine. If he was invited by Ame. Kailani stuck her tongue out further and licked the man in recognition before turning forward once more. A few more frozen guards shattered beneath her as she moved down the hall, those too slow to escape the minty bird.

There was panic in the air as Kailani approached the intersection that split between her cell block and the access towards the elevators. It was much darker than usual, only the backup lights every few feet keeping things remotely visible. Well, that and the flaming woman on her tail. Down the right the remaining guards in the forward force were trying to get the mag lock working and seemed to be resorting to a manual unlock, knowing the tidal wave of violence soon coming directly for them.

Surprisingly, the Devourer did not turn to become the spearhead in that attack. Actually, she turned the complete opposite way and began to happily clamber back towards her cell. Well, not hers specifically, but that cell block. In fact, she went right passed her cell at a cheerful trot, carrying her passenger along.

It was brighter here, probably because of the glowing cell located halfway through the block. Light flooded from it, illuminating the two guards stationed outside. It was more surprising that they weren’t already dead to be honest, but - squealch.

Kailani lifted her large front claw, sniffing at the wet goop she stepped in. Following the natural course of action, she then stuck her tongue out and licked it. Very watery. What was this? Actually, why were there bodies around the hallway, twitching and spasming? If she squinted in the dark, she could almost make out the slightly smoking form of some others she had seen chained.

“Return to your cells immediately!”

… It wasn’t the guards who did this, was it? Kailani’s jaw clicked thoughtfully as she eyed the two rubber suited men, her plated body almost bristling warily. They were poised in front of the glowing cell, guns raised and ready to fire. If they were strong enough to take down all these people, then perhaps she should be wary?

Cautiously, she took a step forward. Cautiously, the two guards immediately began to fire.

Oh, these were just regular bullets. Giving one last puzzled look to the form beneath her, Kailani gave a little mental shrug and began to trot forward once more. The bullets rebounded harmlessly off her, the alien’s considerable bulk a protective shield. Surprisingly, the men did not retreat as she came closer but held their ground.

“Arc Dragon!”

That perked her up immediately, and with a delighted little shriek Kailani - well, she didn’t eat them surprisingly. Her body slammed into the two, one screaming as she carelessly set one claw on his leg, her weight crushing the bones. The other scrambled for his weapon but she had no eyes for them. Instead her other large claw came up, slamming into the silica door. It shuddered and warped under the assault, and the bend was all Kailani needed to get her teeth in it and yank the entire door off its hinges and swallow.

”Min-Ji!” Kailani crowed - completely unrecognizable as words considering the name was said in chitters - as she attempted to jam herself into the cell, succeeding only in getting part of her head in. Her back legs scrambled against the ground as she tried to get in further, but was just too large. She began eating the doorway. It was only natural.

Kailani

There were screams, and flashing lights, fights breaking out, death - none of it mattered to Kailani. In that moment her entire focus was on consumption, large body bristling with the freedom of finally being able to be in her true form after being forced into such a small skin for so long. There was so much blood smeared around her slavering mouth, not just the smears one might expect but bloody handprints dragged along the purple carapace and soon licked away by a large tongue. Their screams meant nothing to her. Neither did their deaths.

It was only when she ran out of uniformed guards in the immediate vicinity did the alien turn her attention from the ruined catwalk, the chaos she caused as well as the others vaguely on the edge of her awareness. After all, a dozen bowls of oatmeal were nothing compared to even one full human, let alone a buffet of bodies and metal. Despite the months of near constant starvation, it wasn’t even personal - Kailani merely relished in the feeling of finally being able to consume at her leisure.

Her top priority was keeping it that way.

Many of the humans were avoiding the canisters on the ground that leaked a strange type of air. The Devourer came trotting over, chittering excitedly as she leaned down to nose the tear gas and sniff it. Unpleasant, made her eyes tingle a bit. Down the hatch it went, some of the gas leaking from the corner of her mouth before it fizzled away, ripped to shreds by her biology. Kailani followed along to the next one, the battle between metahuman and guard ignored as she came up by her hallmate, the firefeet Ameliya. The tear gas by her was similarly gulped down, before the alien turned her head to the woman, chittering excitedly.

Oh right, Ameliya couldn’t understand her.

Well, no point pondering how to communicate. Kailani leaned in close and bumped heads before licking the fiery woman’s head, tongue unscathed even if it scorched her carapace just a little. She retreated before it could do actual damage, and admittedly it was a little tempting after so many months to just bite down. Of course, that would be detrimental to the whole escape plan.

Who taught her ‘detrimental’?

It looked like the others in the plan were all having their own fun stretching their powers. It must’ve been like her own form, finally able to fully flex those muscles cramped into a small space. Well, mostly. One man Kai didn’t know the name of was reaching for Julia, or specifically the gun in her hand with a snap of order to give it to him - and then he was snapped in half as Kailani bit down on him instead, his legs staying up for a moment before collapsing without the top half. She swallowed.

He was not part of the plan so she could eat him. Simple. Making a delighted purr at her own logic, Kai stuck out her tongue - already the blood was gone - and licked Julia next. Now where was -

Right, Min-Ji was already being escorted back. She had left. Which was no good, because how was Kailani supposed to fulfill the best friend pact? She’d have to go get her, as promised. Plus, many of the people were trying to push out but weren’t making much progress - she guessed they were hesitant because of the bullets. With a shriek, the large alien finally turned to the double-door entranceway, stalking past Körbl on the way - and taking a moment to lick Abby on the head as well - before scooping up some of the rather impressive pile of guards in her mouth. They crunched, and soon the alien was using her large, tank-like frame to shove through the blockade of shield and bodies into the hallway. People either disappeared into her mouth or were physically shoved to the side, breaking the wall as she began down the hallway back towards her cellblock.

Best. Friend. Pact!

Also tentative interest. The concept is intriguing and obviously well thought out, I just have no character ideas jumping out at me currently.
