New Rivière City: The End of an Era

@FernStone There's a coding error in Max's sheet. You didn't add another indent in her power section.

Both characters are accepted.

@Mr Allen J

Thanks for pointing that out, I'll fix is when I fix all the lines :) I'll move the characters over to the character section later on

@FantasyChic IN regard to taken my sheets as inspiration, Sal is one of the character's I'm working on thus why he's in the dynamics section :)

New Rivière City: The End of an Era

My two slightly modified character's from when I was in the other roleplay ;) At least two more will be written at some point :D ALSO I will fix the formatting when I have more time xD

Rori Aherne

Basic Information

Name:

Roisin Anna Aherne 'Rori' 'Robin'

Age:

17

Gender:

Agender

Appearance & Attire:

Rori is pretty short, standing at around 5'1" or possibly 5'2". They aren't sure what they're exact height is. They are slightly lighter than average due to being quite skinny with a general lack of muscles. Rori certainly isn't athletic or strong looking, in fact they are really quite scrawny in that respect. Much to they're announced Rori is reasonably well sized at her chest, being around a C or D cup. Most people born female would be happy with this but it hardly helps with Rori's gender dysphoria. Most of the time Rori will be found wearing a binder to make her chest look a lot flatter. So in most circumstances Rori has a more gender neutral body and the lack of other curves helps this.
To help in having a more gender neutral appearance Rori has their hair cut short. It is in a somewhat messy style, not so short that strands don't fall across their face. Occasionally they will style it in some way but often it is just left in a mess as if they had just woken up. While naturally Rori's hair is a dark red-ginger in colour, a rather nice colour, they tend to have it dyed. This is due to them being somewhat embarrassed about the hair colour - they were teased about it at a younger age. At the moment it is dyed a dark blue. Their skin tone is fair and freckled, with a myriad of freckles covering their face. They have light brown-yellow eyes, slightly more yellow than they are brown. These are quite large and probably the most predominant facial feature. Their face is slightly round in its shape giving them quite a cute appearance and making them look a bit younger than you would expect. Cute is probably a good term to use to describe Rori, and the smile that is permanently across their lips makes them look really quite friendly.
On top of their more normal humanoid features Rori has a few that are not so humanoid. One unnatural thing about Rori is their eyes, though this isn't always obvious from a distance. They are more like a bird's than a humans and as a result does not blink with their eyelids but rather by a third hidden eyelid, the nictitating membrane. This isn't often noticeable however. Along with this various parts of their body are covered in a soft down-like feathers. These are a light reddish-brown in colour, similar to that of their natural hair. Most of the other bird features they have aren't easily visible.
Clothing wise Rori tends to wear outfits that are more gender neutral. You won't find them in a dress or a skirt any time soon. They most often wear baggy and concealing shirts, with a binder underneath, and more loose jeans or trouser(pants) and trainers. They are almost always found wearing the same dark green hoody. They predominantly dress in green, with some darker blues to match their hair along with black and white.

Skills/Talents:

Socialising: Rori is incredibly friendly and cheerful, if a bit shy, meaning they excel in social situations and find it easy to make friends. In general they are very easy to get along with.
Optimistic: Though not much of a skill, Rori can make the most out of a bad situation and isn't one to let what is happening get the best of them. This means they can help cheers others up and will keep calm if things take a turn for the worse.
Creative: Rori is good at both writing and drawing/painting and enjoys doing both. They often get inspiration for stories for the most random things. They always carry a notebook or sketchpad around with them and often will just start writing or sketching.
Musical: To add to their creativity Rori is quite musical. They play a few instruments, including the piano, clarinet, violin and Irish tin whistle. They also enjoy listening to music and have a good sense of rhythm, always open to pick up more instruments.

Brief Backstory:

Rori was born to a relatively large family. They were the fourth child born into the family, with an older brother and two older sisters. Their younger brother was born just a year after they were. Their parents were strict Christians and brought up all of their children to be religious as well. This wasn't something that Rori ever liked but they had to go along with it. Along with this their parents were incredibly anti-metahuman.
Even though Rori had little in common with their siblings they always tried to get along with them and most often succeeded. They got on best with their younger brother, Conor, though he was rather annoying. There was the smallest age gap between the two of them which helped. However the person Rori did got on very well with was their cousin, Max. The two families grew up near each other and Rori would spend a lot of time with their cousin. The two got on, though Max was a much less friendly and more troublesome individual than Rori.
However when Rori was eight there was a fall out between the two families. They were forbidden from seeing Max again and eventually Max and her family moved away to another city.
Rori lived a relatively normal life until they were twelve. It was at this point that they began to become aware enough to question they had been assigned at birth. Rori certainly didn't feel like a girl, felt uncomfortable within their own body and disliked being lumped in with either of the binary genders. They eventually came to the conclusion that they were neither. It took a lot of courage but they told their family. The result wasn't good. The only reaction they got was negative and then given the strict warning to never talk about it 'or else.' This was one of the more unhappy periods of Rori's life as they were forced to keep going under the name Roisin and as a girl.
It was shortly after this that her powers began to manifest. The change was subtle at first. Their eyesight changed - getting better. Then they stopped blinking and began to form light feathers across her body. They did their best to hide this even though they didn't know what was going on. Rori panicked a lot more when they first changed shape into a bird. Having no idea what was going on and panicking slightly they continued to try and hide it.
They were around thirteen when their parents walked in on them mid-change. It was safe to say Rori became more of a disappointment than they had been before. The fear on their parents faces was clear. For the next few days their parents said nothing. But Rori noticed the difference, and heard the private phone calls they made. Their parent's hatred for metahumans seemed to extend even to their child. Things took a turn for the worse when Rori overheard a conversation her father had on the phone that suggested they would send Rori away to have their powers removed and, if that wasn't possible (which is clearly wasn't), to have them killed.
Feeling even more scared than before Rori didn't have much choice but to pack a bag and run away from home. While this wasn't exactly the nicest experience they spent minimal time on the streets before coming into contact once again with Max, the cousin they had once been close to. It was something of a chance encounter but led to Max taking in Rori (though Max herself was hardly an adult at the time).They were somewhat shocked to find out about their involvement in gang crime. While Sal tried to push them into it, Max was always against it. However inevitable Rori began to help somewhat though they were never particularly happy about it.
However after a close call with NEST agents were both Sal and Max were almost caught the three have moved again, leaving Sal and Max's uncle to make a life in New Rivière City. They haven't been there long and are only beginning to find their footing.

Power Information

Power Class:

Super-System (Bestial)

Power:
Permanent Features

Rori has a few birdlike features that remain even when they are in a humanoid form. Their eyes are more birdlike than other humans. This gives them a much better vision than normal humans meaning she can see longer distances and colours in the ultraviolet spectrum just as birds do. However with this they struggle to move their eyes and often has to move their head around to look in other directions. Along with this they have light down-like feather covering a lot of their body - including along visible parts of their body like their arms and neck. This acts as an extra layer of clothes in terms of keeping them warm. They're bones are also lighter and stronger than most, like a birds, as if to allow for them to fly. However they have no way to fly as a human, so these just make her lighter than she looks. It allows her to jump higher than the normal person but she wasn't quite blessed with wings as a human.

Transformation

Rori can transform fully into a few forms of birds. As a bird they have all of the features of a bird and it is difficult to tell the difference from her and a bird. However she retains her intelligence and mind, so often if a bird is acting as a bird should not it is probably Rori. This comes with all the features of whatever bird she turns into. She tends to turn into the average bird for that type in terms of size, strength and speed.

Limits:

Difficulty rolling their eyes due to them being birdlike and as a result has to move their head more. their eyesight is better than normal humans but not quite as good as the best birds eyesight.
Rori is limited in the types of birds she can turn into. At the moment she can turn into a thrush (she tends to go for a robin), a kestrel, a hawk, a hummingbird, a duck and an owl. She can turn into any species from these sections. Along with this she can only make the change a few times per day unless she pushes herself.

Weaknesses/Drawbacks:

If they look into the far distance for too long they can strain their eyes meaning that their vision will go blurry and it is difficult for them to see anything.
Rori gets incredibly exhausted and ravenous after changing from their bird form back to their human form. This can easily be solved by eating a lot of food and a long nap. However if they don't get this they are prone to collapse without warning or faint from the fatigue.
Along with this the longer they stay in their bird form the more they takes on the characteristics of the bird. It is likely that if they remained as a bird for a prolonged period of time they will probably forget who they are and how to turn back into a human. This would mean Rori would be permanently stuck in the form of a bird.
Ruri also sometimes get stuck mid-change which is incredibly painful and traumatic. It can take them hours to get out of this state. Along with this they are often left in pain after the change and feel like they have limbs that they no longer have (such as wings).

Max Diaz

Basic Information

Name:

Maxine Ivanna Diaz 'Max'

Age:

19

Gender:

Female

Appearance & Attire:

Often found wearing a somewhat violent expression Max can be rather intimidating, even at only 5'3" tall. There are certainly rare occasions where she does not look as if she is about to kill all those around but those are, well, few and far between. Max looks reasonably strong for her height. Her raw strength is something that she works on through training in combat and doing a lot of exercise. She is certainly physically fit and this is something that is often obvious when people she her. While she is certainly not overweight, most of her weight coming from the muscles she has, she couldn't be described as skinny. She has an unfortunate lack of curves, something that she herself doesn't care about. Her chest isn't quite flat but in certain clothing it's difficult to tell if anything is there. Max certainly doesn't have anything near the ideal feminine body, often looking somewhat more masculine. She pulls it off, however, and has no issue with the lack of curves. She isn't look for people to be attracted to her anyway.
Max's hair is a dark brown in colour. The left hand side is practically shaved, styled as an undercut. The rest is swept over to the right and often covers her eyes. At the front this falls to her chin and at the back it goes just past the nape of her neck. Sometimes she'll have her hair slightly dyed. The ends of it are currently a reddish colour from the last time she dyed it but the rest is it's natural colour. Her hair frames her incredibly dark brown, almost black eyes. Her eyes are turned up slightly and somewhat narrow. Her face is slightly oval shaped with surprisingly soft lines. Her skin tone is an olive tanned tone thanks to her Latin American/Hispanic heritage. She has thick, dark eyebrows and medium sized lips. All of this together means that her facial features look a lot more feminine than her body does. However she only rarely wears makeup, and in when she does it tends to be very dark. She has quite a few visible scars on both her face and arms, all from fights. There are quite a few that are also hidden by any clothes she wears.

Hairstyle

Something like this:
img14.deviantart.net/30d2/i/2011/270/d..

Max tends to wear clothes that are a mix of blacks and reds, with the occasional other dark colour or white thrown in there. She tends to go for some combination of ripped jeans, tank tops (or any top really) along with a leather jacket and boots.

Skills/Talents:

Fighting: Max is good at hand to hand combat and street fighting. She got most of her training from criminals and as a result fights dirty. She knows how to use weapons like a knife in combat if needed.
Deception: Max is a pretty good liar, good to spinning a tale and getting people to believe her. This helps with all sorts of things. It can help make people believe she's harmless and often makes it all the easier to steal from them, or something similar.
Gymnastics: Though she doesn't necessarily look it Max is pretty flexible due to doing gymnastics at a young age, and continuing it for a bit in her early teens. She kept up this flexibility and can do all sorts of fancy things such as handstands and forward flips. It's not a skill she uses much anymore, though.
Gardening: Max rarely admits it but she has something of a talent for growing plants and flowers. She enjoys it as well but tends to keep it secret because it seems like it isn't a tough enough hobby for someone like her to have. Even so she tends to have one or two plants wherever she lives, though she goes for more dangerous varieties.

Brief Backstory:

Max's parent's relationship was built off of something akin to a love story. Her father was a metahuman part of a small gang and her mother a devout Christian. She put her love for him over her religious views, and he gave up the gang life to raise a family. As a result both were somewhat ostracised from their sides of the family.
Even so Max grew up in a loving household. She was surprisingly close to her four year older brother, Sal, and the two of them spent most of their time play fighting (in a friendly way). Along with this Max spent a lot of time with her cousin, Rori (Roisin at the time), though she could tell that things were tense between her mother and her aunt.
Max always knew of the existence of metahumans due to her father and brother being registered as them. Her brother was one of the few born a metahuman with inherited powers, with the super-system power of regeneration. Max was always slightly jealous because she felt that she was normal without a power.
At the age of ten Max was forced to up and move, leaving behind her cousin that she had grown close to. She has never been sure of the exact reason but thinks it was something to do with the fact her brother and father were metahumans. They moved to Black Fall and lived here relatively happily until Max was twelve, and her brother sixteen.
The family got in a tragic car accident that resulted in the death of both Max's father and mother. Salvador survived due to his regeneration and Max seemed to survive for the same reason. It was assumed that their father suffered injuries he couldn't recover from. The two of them were sent to live with their uncle on their father's side, who left them mostly to their own devices having never wanted kids.
Max and Sal both fell into a bad crowd at this stage, though Max was mostly tagging along with her older 'cool' brother at this point. After beginning a life of crime they joined a minor metahuman gang. It was here that Max discovered the truth about her powers. She didn't have regeneration, rather she weakened another's power and temporarily gained it. This was why her father had died. The power she had made her a valuable member of the gang. It was here that she learned to fight and steal. By the age of fourteen she was regularly involved in street fights, doing drugs and participating in all sorts of gang activities. She miraculously managed to stay out of NEST's radar, being completely unregistered. However her, and a few others around her age, were caught doing minor crimes and noted down by the police force due to this.
At the age of fifteen Max had a chance encounter with her younger cousin, Rori, which ended with her taking them into her care (without permission of her uncle). This didn't stop her and Sal's involvement in crime. Rori ended up getting involved as well, something Max wasn't particularly happy about. But there was nothing she could do to stop it.
However after a close call with NEST agents were both Sal and Max were almost caught the three have moved again, leaving Sal and Max's uncle to make a life in New Rivière City. They haven't been there long and are only beginning to find their footing.

Power Information

Power Class:

Power

Power:

Power Replication

Max has the ability to replicate the powers of others. This replication is not specific to one class, however there are some she struggles to replicate more than others. She seems to find the super-system class the easiest to replicate. She can replicate up to four powers it seems, however they each must be of a different class. So for example she could not replicate two different super-system powers. In terms of choosing whether she can replicate a power, this varies. She has gotten to the stage of control where she can pick and choose whether she replicates a power if it is of the super-system class. However not for the other classes. Any new powers she gets will replace the one in the 'slot' of its class of power, essentially replacing that one. If she does not use a power for a long time she will lose it, in a way. This means she has to use each in a reasonably regular basis.
On top of this she can only use one power at a time. Which power she can use seems to be reset dependant on her sleep - she needs to sleep a certain amount of time to change what power she is using. However there are some limits to this - she must have used the power that she is currently locked into to then change it. This means if she does not know how to use a power she will be stuck with it until she can work out how to do so.

Current Powers Replicated:

• Regeneration: (Super-system Class) From her father Max has the ability to regenerate. This allows her to heal wounds that she sustains at a reasonable rate, and she can repair bones and muscle damage at a faster rate than most others. This allows her to survive things that other's wouldn't necessarily be able to.
• Telekinesis: (Cerebral Class) Replicated from a member of the gang she was part of before being nabbed by NEST, this is the one that Max tends to stick in since she's reasonably comfortable with it. However it isn't that powerful. She can move one object of a medium wait (say, a chair) and two that are light (for example knives). This takes a decent amount of concentration it is obvious she is the one moving them. She can only pull and push the objects rather than changing their form, such as bending them. However she is working on getting better at this and will probably learn more the more she uses it.

Limits:

She has to have skin to skin contact to replicate someone's power. The longer she holds this contact the more powerful a version of the power she replicates.
She doesn't necessarily know what power someone has or how to use it meaning she can end up with a power completely useless to her. She doesn't have a very long time to learn how to use it either.
She can only have up to four powers, each of a different class. These are replaced by class so she only ever has a power of one class. She cannot always choose whether she replicates someone's powers or not. Along with this she can only use one at the time, and this changes after she has slept for eight hours AND used the current power she is locked into. However if she replicates a new power she switches to using the one rather the previous one.
She is also limited by the power. Regeneration wise there are only so many wounds that she can heal, and often she can only fully regenerate the smaller ones. For telekinesis she is limited to ten feet away from her, and objects of a medium weight. She needs to concentrate to do more than one small object and breaks in her concentration cause her to lose control.

Weaknesses/Drawbacks:

The fact that she has to have skin to skin contact can be a weakness. This leaves her vulnerable as she weakens her targets power and means she has to get close to them in the first place which is not always a viable option. This can leave her in all sorts bad situations.
She can only change power after using the one she currently has. This means if she does not know how to use a power she is stuck with it until she can figure it out.
Using powers of others is quite taxing on her body. While the powers themselves need no fuel they use up a lot of the essential nutrients she has within her body. Using the powers will cause Max to begin to both dehydrate and starve, meaning she must eat and drink a lot more than normal while using them. If she does not eat or drink she will grow weaker, her reactions slower. This will eventually push her to death by starvation/dehydration if she keeps using her power.
Along with this Max gains the weakness of whatever power she steals.
Regeneration Weaknesses: Incredibly painful to do, does not regain any lost blood ect. She cannot regenerate massive wounds meaning that any life threatening wounds would kill her. While the wound is healed her body still suffered the damage, leaving her weaker after regenerating.
Telekinesis weaknesses: Must concentrate to be able to keep using the power. If she cannot see the object she is moving she cannot move it thus it is easy to break the line of site. Tiring mentally on her and doing it for too long will cause blinding headaches and migraines, and often put her in a bad mood and make her tired.

Salvador Diaz - Older Brother (Regeneration)
Breandan Aherne - Uncle
Elizabeth Aherne - Aunt
Roisin Aherne - Cousin (Bird Transformation)
Aiden, Saiorse, Eva and Conor Aherne - Cousins

Dynamics:

Basically your character's relationship with other characters.
Rori Aherne | Mostly Good | Friend / Cousin | "I like Rori but sometimes their just too goddamn cheerful. But still, it's nice to have them around."|
Salvador Diaz | Mixed | Brother | "Sal is a pretty cool older brother, but we have our fights. Also he keeps getting Rori involved with everything..."|

Other

• Personality wise Max is pretty violent and gets angry pretty easily. This doesn't mean that she's necessarily unfriendly. She's incredibly flirtatious. She doesn't put up with shit and isn't going to be sympathetic about people's problems, or get emotional and cry or something like that.
• Max picks fights and gets in trouble far too often. She doesn't really care about the rules - they're just there to be broken after all.

New Rivière City: The End of an Era

Awesome, I'll start working on characters soon :) (By soon I mean like over the next week xD)

New Rivière City: The End of an Era [Superhuman City/High Casual]

@Mr Allen J Completely understandable :) I'll definitely join up in this one, and is it okay if I use one or two of my ones from the last time? With some edits, ofc, but it means I don't have to think of new powers xD

Although I'm not going with electricity manipulation this time

New Rivière City: The End of an Era [Superhuman City/High Casual]

Interested. I have been in one of your roleplays like this before, but it didn't get very far. Definitely interested in this though :) (Admittedly I have very little time in the next week or two xD)

Welcome to the Host Club!

@ChicogalJust to let you know I'm still here but have a week to finish a massive computing project so I'll probably be slow on my IC response ;)

Welcome to the Host Club!

(It's fine, I have school and everything too so I'm also quite busy)

Ky had begun to drift off into her own thoughts slightly, glancing down the wide corridor and then pulling out her phone and looking at it. She wasn't particularly in the mood to respond to the messages there. She should probably just relax and enjoy the vacation rather than worrying about other friends back home.

She was slightly startled back out of her thoughts at the sounds of someone asking her a question. She turned to look at Mimori with a slightly smile. "Yes, it is." She paused for a moment, trying to remember who the other girl was. "Mimori, yeah?" She shrugged slightly before smiling. "Sure, I'll just go get changed. Won't take a moment." With a slight nod she closed her door, for the privacy, and headed back into her room.

It took her a while to find her swimming stuff. Her mother had, of course, packed a bikini. However she had managed to stuff in the board shorts she much preferred to wear over some kind of swimming costume. She quickly got changed into the green bikini and pulled the white board shorts over it. Feeling a bit self concious about going down with only a bikini top on she grabbed another tshirt she had to wear on her way to the beach. As she went to open the door she grabbed a towel. She was a bit more excited about going down to the beach than she'd expected to be...

~~~

"Oh no, we're so scared," the twins responded to Tamaki with laughs, though they were genuinely scared of what Honey could do when angry. They doubted that he would be angry, though, unless they did something to Usa-chan. Rolling their eyes slightly at his enthusiasm the two followed him up to were their rooms were.

Of course theirs was large enough to fit the two of them. Their luggage had already been dropped off. It was certainly nice, overlooking the beach with a decent sized balcony. They didn't spend much time in it though - they had gotten into their beach stuff before as well. They both wore different coloured board shorts, with Hikaru's being orange and Kaoru's being green. The shirts they wore on top were more similar, both being shades of blue.

"We'd better head down... Kyoya will have our heads if we're not on the beach entertaining guests," Kaoru commented as the two of them headed out. Hikaru laughed.

"Yes, this may be a vacation but we still have to be hosts."

The two of them continued to chat as they headed down to the beach. A few people had beaten them there, but they were two of the first.

Welcome to the Host Club!

Ky had found that she was more happy about going to the host club. She enjoyed spending time with Tamaki. And of course she had signed up for the beach vacation. She hadn't been to a beach in a long time and she was sure that it would be fun enough. Though, of course, it was looking to be something of a new experience. What with the fancy cars and the whole part of it being a private beach. That certainly wasn't something that she was used to. She had only been to public beaches. Of course her parents had been delighted at the idea. Unfortunately Amaya had been unable to come so that left her... a bit friendless.

She couldn't help but laugh as Tamaki waved his arms about in the most ridiculous manner, pushing her phone into the pockets of the jeans that she was wearing. She'd been in the middle of texting a few friends who were teasing her quite relentlessly about how posh she was getting. It was... somewhat annoying. She listened carefully to what Tamaki said, frowning slightly. Choose a room? Well, it would hardly matter since they were all undoubtedly the same. Maybe different views. She didn't really care.

Ky waited for a few of the other girls to go first. She took one of the last rooms left, taking a quick look at it before going and hanging around at her door. She wasn't too sure what to do now.

~~~

Kaoru and Hikaru stood just behind Tamaki, both wearing identical mischievous grins. They were quite looking forward to this vacation for all the wrong reasons. There were plenty of pranks that they could play on their leader while they were away. It was certainly going to be fun.

Kaoru smiled slightly at Mimori as Tamaki gestured for the guests to go ahead. He also gave her a slight wave, earning a slight roll of the eyes from Hikaru.

"Hope you're looking forward to this vacation, Tamaki," the two spoke in a joking tone, grinning at him as each one appeared on either side. Most of the guests had found rooms, and were settling into those.

(Sounds like a good plan! yeah I like it :) )

Welcome to the Host Club!

Yeah skipping sounds like a good idea

Welcome to the Host Club!

(We could maybe skip to the going to the beach or something? Dunno xD)

"Hopefully most will understand," Ky laughed, though she wasn't sure why it would bother her so much. normally she didn't let those kind of things bother her at all. Maybe it was because it was so much more people and her parent's would be annoyed if she gave a bad impression. "Well, uhm, I'm glad that you did... I'm enjoying myself," she responded, slightly more quietly than normal. Since when did she get shy about talking to people?

~~~

"That's certainly interested," Kyoya responded, not commenting on her tripping but clearly noticing it and judging her somewhat on it. "Very few people notice that. Though it is quite obvious that you prefer Kaoru..."

(Sorry it's short!)
