The Animorphs

@Gisk Added! I want to have something like a list of the rules that will be easily seen by the PCs. In the series they had to learn everything on their own and it took time and unlikely circumstances. Best to have the rules right from the beginning, no?

I suppose the parent thing is true, but the morphing tech seems to latch on to things like age and scar tissue, but not stuff like injuries so... *shrug*

Well you have to revert to your "true" form between morphs, and the "true" form is the only one you can spend significant amounts of time in without worry. You'd want something versatile and comfortable.

@Nallore I eagerly await to see your brain-child!

By the by, isn't this answered? I recall one character who was stuck as a bird, but gained morphing powers again, and apparently was allowed to go back in time to gain his original form as a morph?

@Gisk

There will be no time travel, because that was Ellimist's and Crayak's doing I believe, and we're ignoring the omnipotent gamers this time. Perma-morphed individuals can regain the power to morph, but it'd be impossible to regain their original form as there'd be no DNA to acquire. Unless they have a clone. Which is unlikely. But they could get a new human form by morphing someone else or combining DNA to create a new form, and then surpassing the time limit again to become perma-morphed, and then they could just get the morphing power again.

In the beginning we're just going to get our feet, but things will pick up soon and we'll have to do a bit of diplomating with alien factions.

Maybe a bit of Spoilers????

I can't remember if this is canon or not, but the Andalites aren't sold on the whole 'war' thing, and if they are, they're not too sure about saving Humanity. Officially anyway, but expect persons like Elfangor to show up to help.

The Chee will make an appearance, as will rebels and other aliens that can be freed from the Yeerks like the Hork-Bajir. Maybe even aliens from outside Earth that haven't been targeted by, or escaped attacks by, the Yeerks.

Ceta's Whale Palace

Aarón Dante; Long App; Super

Name: Aarón Luca Alejandro Dante, “Alante”

Age: 19

Residence: Los Angeles, United States
Occupation: Student, Street Musician

Appearance:

• Hair: Dark black, smooth undercut.
• Eyes: Dark brown.
• Skin: Light brown, very light freckles.
• Features: Stark eyebrows, ears pierced, accented speech.

Personality: Stand offish and thoughtful, Aarón is considered quiet and dependable, but hard to befriend. He’s also headstrong and very independent, quick to take a leading or solo role, with little regard for rules or fairness. He doesn’t do well with large crowds, dislikes dealing with emotions, and cares deeply for his family.

History: Aarón grew up in a mixed Mexican-American household, his mother’s side spread out across the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico, originating from an increasingly poor little city known as Palo Vista in the Mexican state of Sonora, and his father’s side being an estranged wealthy clan from the state of Washington. They met in Los Angeles and fell in love, and his father followed his mother south across the border to Palo Vista. Eventually they saved up enough money, and with help from their relatives across the border, they moved back to the city of their dreams and bought a home in South Los Angeles.

Their family was small, and Aarón grew up with only an elder sister named Julia and was raised almost solely by her and their mother after their father was pushed off the pier at Santa Monica during a fight and drowned when his foot became trapped beneath the pier’s support struts. The fight happened when he was very young, but he remembers it began because some older boys had been picking on his sister and threatened her.

His family recovered from the tragedy well, all things considered, and through the pursuit of music they bonded and began to play together in the streets or sometimes booked in small local venues. Towards the end their connections began to fray, his mother lost her job and was forced to take an option with less pay and more hours, and his sister got into a good college in Washington, leaving him to play alone and try and find his own path. Eventually he was accepted at a local school of arts in Los Angeles, but he never made it to his first class. Instead he had a minor freakout when two cars collided in front of him, and he was only saved from being struck by the debris by mysterious powers holding the metal bits that would have speared right through him, freezing them in midair. Then later the same day, still in disbelief and closer to his new school, he’d been hit by a wave of fatigue and called home- only for his phone to glitch massively and begin spitting out a strange warning that he needed to run away as fast as possible- and then he was caught, dark tendrils wrapped around his wrists and waists, pulling him down through the concrete below before he could even scream.

He, like all the others, found himself in the Seeker Prison next; a place that was cold, dark, and filled with monsters. A place where time didn’t seem to ever pass, and a dark whispering stole all his strength.

Abilities, Talents, Traits, Powers:

• Music: Aarón is adept with a guitar and knows how to read and play music on a variety of other instruments, as well as a good grasp of performing with singing and dancing.
• Tri-lingual: Aarón can speak his native languages of Spanish and English, as well as fluent Portuguese.
• Telekinetic Specialty: As a Streamer the abilities related to teleknietic abilities come easiest to him, and he is capable of learning more advanced applications and skills of that specific power.

The Animorphs

(Face Claim: Marc Forne)

Name: Kaden “Kade” Ritter

Appearance: Kaden has light skin and faint freckles, with dark brown eyes and even darker, nearly black, hair. He’s a bit on the thin side, though he often wears hoodies or other baggy clothes that make that fact unnoticeable. He also wears hats, almost never seen without one, everything from beanies and pompom tops to bucket hats to baseball caps and flat brims.

Age: 18

Personality: Quiet and thoughtful, Kade is a courteous and kind person, on the outside anyway. He cares about how people think of him, and finds it difficult to be genuine without breaking his kind and stoic mask. He wants to rage and scream and cry, not to be dramatic or draw attention to himself, but to actually feel real for once. He’s vindictive and self indulgent, only barely managing to stuff petty revenge behind his mask, and hiding his weaknesses the same way.

History: In the beginning Kade’s parents were together, but they were never happy. His father was blatantly an alcoholic and abusive, but it took a few years before his mother kicked him out for good. His mother wasn’t much better, not into drugs or booze, but just generally irresponsible, cruel, and ill-suited for anything related to parenthood. She rested on her parents’ money like it was a cure for all her problems and continued living like the spoiled princess her father treated her like as a child.

With less than stellar examples to follow, it wasn’t any wonder their only kid grew up thoroughly messed up. Luckily his friends, while oblivious, cushioned the worst of it. In the beginning at least, by their teenage years not even Kade’s perfect mask protected him from the booze and mary jane craze that swept across his school. Thankfully a penchant for drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana were the only bad habits he maintained, and only sparingly so people wouldn’t think badly of him.

The strange obsession with hats, and the perfect mask he always wore contributing to his outfits, combined nicely to give him a good sense of fashion. He has a part time job at a local clothing store called Outclass, with an opportunity to advance much higher in the company once he graduates. His place on the school swim team came with required volunteer hours at one of several locations, including the San Francisco Marine Wildlife Rescue Center, a veterinary clinic specialized in rescuing dolphins, turtles, and other marine wildlife in and around the San Francisco Bay.

Skills: Observation, deception, swimming, and a fashion sense.
