bloody hell, 6 days old any you already have 30 IC posts.
IF your still taking people I might use The Artisan in your city again, or I might make someone new informed by reading though everything that's already been made/written.
Void Dragons are immense astro fauna that claim to have been around since the dawn of the universe itself. An adult Dragon is a force to be reckoned with a physical and magical powerhouse capable of wreaking untold destruction if provoked, however they are incredibly rare, because it is uncommon for a dragon to survive long enough hatch, let alone develop to adulthood. This is because the elders don’t have the inclination to personally raise their young and their offspring are highly sought after by planetborn races. The eggs are highly sought after by madmen who dream of having an adult under their power and most captured eventually die in their new master’s service (generally along with the master). Even the eggs are of use, producing an abundance of magical energy, resulting in them often being used as generators for war machines or artifacts of power by sorcerers.
Until recently the eggs of void dragons were simply left to drift through the void after laying, warmed by a nearby star, where they would inevitably be found during their lengthy incubation period. Traditionally the void dragons have survived as a species via their own longevity and from the odd egg being lucky enough to be missed by collectors, but the ongoing war has increased demand for them significantly, while also increasing the amount of dragons dieing as a result of some being caught in the crossfire.
Aware of these potentially extinction level problems, yet unwilling to commit more than a few days to ensuring the survival of their eggs, some dragons have taken to developing various artificial methods of protecting their young. Some capture ships or battlestations and set them to automatically protect the eggs, some force the natives of a system to declare them a protected species and others cover them in stolen stealth fields. Celnaria, the mother of Avivia, chose another method, stealing an idea directly from the egg thieves plauging her spechies she makes her eggs power their own defences in the form of robotic bodies, which are commanded by the slowly growing consciousness of her children. However, void dragon eggs grow in size as they develop, and as such it will be up to each child to acquire new protection as they begin to outgrow their initial shells.
The effectiveness of this approach has yet to be established, as Avivia is one of the first batches to undergo this approach.
Age: 17
Gender: F
Appearance: Avivia herself is an embryo, growing inside a large perfectly spherical egg about 2 feet in diameter. Despite its fragile appearance, the membrane of the egg is surprisingly hardy, with about the same resistance capacity as kevlar. This egg is mounted to a heavily modified mining android, known as a nursemaid, with connecting tubes leading from it that allow the droid to draw on the embryonic Avivia’s power. This process stimulates the normally dormant consciousness of the fetus and allows it to command the robotic shell as if it were it’s own body.
The droid features a relatively straightforward humanoid frame with the additions of a large retractable palsma cutter in place of its right arm, a dedicated power conduit leads from her egg to the left hand through which directed magic is performed and 2 large sails that can be used to channel full body effecting magic.
She has recently installed a hologram generator used to obscure her real body from the casual observer so that her egg looks like an odd fluid tank. This is a replacement for her earlier concealment method of simply covering it with clothing, yet it is a temporary measure as she is by no means an engineer and it is liable to fail if disturbed.
Homeworld: She was born on a remote robot manufacturing plant owned by Miner's Union orbiting Pefusus 7 that her mother took over for 10 days in-order to force its staff to manufacture her children's artificial nursemaids.
Alignment: Chaos: Void dragons are known for their arrogance, the giant magic beast who has grown to adulthood despite the odds are most often self assured of their own greatness, and generally refuse to bow to authority. Avivia is living a life none of her kind have lived before, how her generation will affect their kinds alignment is yet to be seen.
Role: Helmsman/Pilot
Skills:
Piloting: She’s been flying ships for almost their entire life ever since they stole one 12 days after she her egg was laid. Her future life as a giant space faring dragon makes navigating the void as natural to her as flying is to a bird. She generally flies by plugging herself directly into the ship itself rather than with controls and specialized modifications could allow her to ‘be’ the ship itself. She could theoretically also power a ship, something her kind has been used for before, but the process would be draining in the short term and life threatening in the long term.
Combat: While by no means a seasoned fighter, in her short life she has on multiple occasions been forced to kill some of those who want to use her potential for their own purposes. Generally she fights with little grace, hacking away her massive energy cleaver or trying to blast her enemies with raw magic channeled from her hand.
Magic: Avivia is herself an immense source of magical energy, it fuels her robotic form and allows her to perform many feats of sorcery. Primarily this involves either direct magic channeled from her left arm or more general magic generated from the fins/sails attached to her egg. When it comes to spellcraft she is powerful yet very inexperienced. She can utilize telekinesis for manipulating objects (important when you only have one hand), as a defensive shield or to push herself around in zero-g. Most of the rest of her magic however involves simply dumping energy towards a target and hoping the chaotic results are beneficial.
History: Laid just outside of an out of the way robotics lab by her colossal mother, Avivia had only 7 days to get use to being conscious decades earlier than she should have been before she and her siblings were ordered into small escape pods capable of a single hyperspace jump, which were then unceremoniously launched all across the cosmos. They had only one command from their mother: do not kneel, for you are destined for greatness.
As is to be expected, many of these pods were found by those that might wish them harm or desire their enslavement. However Avivia seemed to be lucky, being found by an exploration vessel belonging to the Arc Luminous where she was treated kindly as a gust and promised safe passage and citizenship within their federation. Yet Avivia, ignorant of the ways of the universe and with her mother’s final instructions fresh in her mind, interpreted the crews words of duty, stability and the order of law as simply a gilded chains. In her arrogance and misplaced fear she flead, stealing a small vessel from the explorer’s hanger. In her rush to reach the hanger and secure the ship she killed several of the crew, not yet knowing her own strength, and was branded an outlaw and threat to society. It was a course of action she would come to regret as she learned more about the universe and the Arc Luminous ‘s benevolent place within it, yet it was something she would have to live with for the rest of her days.
Aviva found that she had a natural talent for piloting during her escape, sourced from her future life as a spacefaring being. To most races the intricacies of space travel: omnidirectional movement, navigating with orbital mechanics and dealing with newtonian physics must be painstakingly learned. Only to the masters does this all feel natural and yet for Avivia, from the very first time she sat in a pilot's chair it felt like home. It was one of the few ways she felt she benefited from her species. In most ways it was a Sword of Damocles, ready to fall at any moment to take away her life or her freedom. Using this skill she pursued a moderately successful career as a freelance pilot, carefully obscuring her real body beneath flowing robes in order to avoid egg thieves.
Most of the money she earned was spent on either maintenance, bribes to people who found out what she was, bribes to avoid the consequences of murdering those who didn’t accept bribes, and various frivolities. As a result, when it became increasingly clear that she was outgrowing her body, her egg begining to look like a grotesque hump beneath her robes, she had nowhere near the funds necessary to pay someone to perform an entire retrofit of her form to make it more suited to her new size. The main issue was the size of the necessary bribe to ensure they do not sell her out instantly to either the Arc Luminous law enforcement or black marketeers interested in Void Dragon eggs. She did manage to instal a holographic field that obscures her body within the egg, making it look like a large fluid tank, but that is a stopgap at best.
In the Nova Dawn they have found what they believe to be a solution to the issue of her growth, a ship that could act as her home until she reaches adulthood and it has a captain possessing a rare honor among thieves which she hopes will result in him not selling her out to the law or other lowlifes for a quick buck. She believes that the fact that he could live long enough to benefit from her adult form is something that might be of interest to him. With the man and ships reputation rubbing off on her she might even be able to walk around without fear for the first time in her life or, better yet, become the ancien ship itself till the day she hatches.
Personality: Avivia is simultaneously curious and deeply paranoid. Still new to the universe she is a sponge for knowledge, her still growing brain always hungry for new information to devour. She is however extremely cautious when encountering new things and especially people lest she reveal her race to them. While ultimately interested only in her own survival and prosperity she is not without empathy and is careful not to make enemies if she can avoid it. Despite her pre hatching state, Avivia possess all the intelligence of an adult sentient and would be difficult to distinguish from one for most people.
Other: Avivia is worth roughly the same as a last generation Arc Luminous Destroyer class vessel on the black market. However, the universe is full of rare commodities and so the average person is unlikely to know what she is at first glance. This does not make her any less worried that anyone who finds out might want to capture her for profit.

Bohmy is an anthropomorphic white rabbit, a rather common sight in their home, a middle of nowhere farming town. Other than her athletic build, little distinguishes her from the people she grew up around.
As Thundare however, she dons a yellow and blue spandex super suit, along with a matching mask to hid their identity. The most notable features on their super suit are the fluffy legwarmers, roff and cotton tail that are used as static charge generators. Around her waist she wears a belt hosting lots of little pouches containing various superhero essentials.
Gender: Bohmy is Female, but people sometimes think ThunDare is a guy.
Personality:
Bohmy: is rather naive and something of a fangirl of the tournament. New to the big city they are still getting accustomed to all the sights, sounds and people that are found within. Generally cheerful and optimistic she’s always ready to lend a hand to those in need, though she can come off as a little shy. Her strict self imposed training regime has left her a little awkward in social situations due to the resulting lack of friends growing up.
ThunDare: putting on the mask lets Bohmy hid her lack of social graces behind her ThunDare persona, bold, confident and brave. the energy coursing through her super suit makes her physically feel more powerful than she does without it, adding to her self confidence. Thundare is, in essence, a straight up golden age superhero, always ready to do the right thing and to keep smile in the face of danger.
Biography:
Born in a small rural town Bohmy grew up, like so many others, watching fighting tournaments on their family's tiny tv. While all the fighters were awesome in their own rights, the ones she truly admired were the ones who the ones who build heroic personas and would sometimes show up in the news as responding to disasters or crimes because they reminded her of the superheros she read about in comics. She loved to see them overcome those who seemed to only be in the tournaments for fame, fortune or selfagrandisment. For some, this would be a fascination that would be outgrown, replaced with the rigors of life. But not for Bohmy, it was not enough to admire and be inspired by the hero’s she saw on that small screen, she wanted to be one!
From the age of 12 Bohmy trained and trained and trained. When she wasn’t in school or helping on the family cotton farm she was weightlifting, doing exercises and, more often than not, running. She even found himself a mentor of sorts, an old seamstress who back in her heyday had competed in tournaments, though had never gotten very far. She, along with some borrowed books, taught her the basics of kickboxing and helped her make her costume, including the special cotton fluff that let her increase the punch of her own rather weak electrical power. Finally, at the age of 18 she was ready to start her heroic exploits.
The thing about small towns is that, apart from getting skitty’s down from trees or giving directions to lost travelers there's not much a hero to do. The most exciting thing they were involved in was breaking up an almost bar-fight after a particularly contentious referee decision in a tournament the patrons were watching on tv. After a year of this they were becoming increasingly frustrated with the lack of action and so set out to Brass City. There they hoped to find somewhere where they could apply their skills better and also hoping to possibly meet the heroes who inspired them in the first place.
Fighting Style: They are a fragile speedster, preferring to stay light on their feet, ducking and dodging an enemy's attacks before darting in for a quick jab or kick and then going right back to dodging. When forced to stick in place ThunDare relies on quick, rapid fire punching where they deliberately hold back the charge in order to build it into a single knockout blow.
While she is decent in a 1 on 1 duel, where ThunDare really shine is in chasing down villains, building up speed to catch up with them and deliver a stunning blow. Against groups of foes they dart from one opponent, building charge as they travele, zapping someone and then switching target to build up another shock.
Type: Static Electricity: Builds up electrical charge by moving, increasing their movement speed up until they land a hit, which unleashes a devastating kinetic shock with it’s strength based on the charge that ThunDare has have built up before landing the blow. However, they lose all their built up energy in the process, and have to rebuild their speed. The charge level is visible on their person, with currents of electricity flowing from the fluffy static batteries found on their legs, tail and around their neck.
Inventory:
Super Suit: an Identity masking outfit that helps ThunDare in using her static electricity power using specialized static electricity batteries. It also gives her some shock resistance as the cottony fluff can absorb some of electrical attacks, potentially fully charging ThunDare in an instant.
Crime fighters tool belt: a utility belt featuring all those little items every superhero needs including: zip ties, a flashlight, rope, a grappling hook, shark repellent, handcuffs, pepper spray, smoke pellets, a first aid kit and many other small situational items you could fit in the pouches.
Aw, she's adorable! Approved, though in her bio she's referred to as 'he' some of the time. In costume people are totally going to confuse her for a guy now.
thank you, glad you like her. also thanks for pointing out the 'he's, I changed her gender half way through writing her so I guess I missed those pronouns with search/replace. Also, totally making the gender confusion an actual thing for her hero persona, it would probably be funny.
