@Hitman

It’s okay. I’ll stick to one character for now, at least until I come up with a better idea for a Hero. I’ll get Flamemco posted.

@LukasVolkov

Alright, sorry

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Aaaand fixes. Pics are up for my characters

@LukasVolkov

Flamenco looks good! Like the FC, you can move her over.

I'm really still not sold on Beacon's powers, though, in part because you're describing two very separate things. First, you have this idea of him turning into an alien after he was thrown into space, which is fine, but then you have him also being a powerful psychic, which is also fine. The problem is that when you put the two together, you have a dude with a wicked alien body that is also Professor X, and I'm not really seeing much of a link between these two other than them happening at the same time. All-in-all, I'm not sure if this character is the best fit for this RP. The RP isn't really a very sci-fi centered one at all, and I feel like this is some type of alien-Lovecraft mashup that is really cool but doesn't seem to mesh well with the RP's more modern, superhero-y, slightly comedic theme. I'm not saying that it won't work, I just think that as of right now, it doesn't feel right for the RP if you understand me.

@Hitman

Just changed the picture, am i good to put my sheet in the character tab? And where would be a good place to start and interact with everyone?

@Eviledd1984

Should be good!

The Discord is very active, that's a good place to go, and if you can find yourself a niche in the IC that's good.

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Alright, I changed his Tier from A to D.

@Scarifar

Alright, feel free to move him over!

@Eviledd1984

Everything looks good now except for one little thing. I did say I wanted FCs to be more artsy and not realistic, sorry :( If you could try to modify that that would be great, though if not, that's alright too, because pictures can be a challenge. Everything after that is good though!

@Scarifar I also have one complaint. I do think your tier is quite inflated. as of right now. Because Rumi does not have much damaging abilities in his arsenal, as useful as they may be, you should consider going to down to either a C or maybe even D tier for him. Outside of that, though, I love the character and I think it'd make a good fit!

@Rabidporcupine Considering I already read this sheet like 10 times at this point, I think you're good XD

EDIT: I will review @LukasVolkov momentarily, hang on tight

《 H. E. R. O. 》

The Hangar was a large, expansive floor located near the top of HERO One. A large, sleek steel room with a cool stone floor, scattered across the large expanse was a variety of what appeared to be small pods, smaller than a Volkswagen Beetle, albeit it appeared to be have a sleek white finish and two wings that made it clear the pods were supposed to be planes. In actuality, they were somewhere in-between pods and planes on the spectrum. They were Mini-Jets, a H.E.R.O. product that was meant to be used in case of a quote-unquote "rapidly-developing emergency that requires immediate and high-speed transportation to a location." What that meant to Blake was "use it when you want to leave HQ really fast and deal a lot of damage wherever you land." It was a philosophy that had destroyed a large multitude of Mini-Jets to date, but considering they were meant to be affordable and easily produced, Blake didn't really care. Most importantly, it was a damned fun experience to fly one of those things over Castleburg skies at the speed of sound before blasting into the air and watching the jet soar directly into a villain in a fiery crash. Maybe Powers would chew him out over spending too much of H.E.R.O.'s budget later, but right now it was go-time.

Blake put his hand against the small tablet that was placed against the wall right outside of the elevator. He then spoke, "Firebird." A loud whirring noise echoed through the hangar, which was nearly empty. The other heroes that were responding to the plant-based threat were evidently either more responsible or much faster at getting to the elevator than Blake was. The whirring stopped as a sleek Mini-Jet rolled over behind a garage door, which began to open.

Mini-Jet

"Safe travels, Firebird," the A.I. voice spoke as Blake rushed over to the cockpit of the small pod-plane thing, hopping inside.

"Yeah, yeah, thanks a ton, Samantha," Blake said dismissively as he pressed a button on the control panel, causing the glass to slide over Blake's head, sealing the Mini-Jet. He then pressed a large red button, the ignition roaring as the thrusters on the Mini-Jet heated up, ready to launch. He then grabbed onto the yoke, pulling it back as he pressed his foot against a pedal, causing the Mini-Jet to launch out of the hangar into the sky. Blake yanked hard as the Mini-Jet leveled off, soaring through the Castleburg skies. Blake narrowed his eyes as the jet glided over the skyline, ducking down under the clouds so he could get a closer look at the city.

He looked down at the city. "New Athens, eh..." he muttered as he looked down. "Well, I'm over New Athens and I don't- a-ha!" He pulled the Mini-Jet down closer to the city, zooming over. "Right in the middle of that avenue. Good." The Mini-Jet edged closer to the avenue, and Blake pressed a button on the control panel, causing the plane to lurch downwards, spiraling towards the New Athens streets. Blake then pulled the yoke up, leveling the plane off a bit but still causing it to descend downwards at an angle.

Blake then grabbed a large red lever on the far right of the control panel, the jet now coming dangerously close to the ground."No civilians...just plants...good," he murmured as the plane screeched loudly. "It's go time, then." With that, he reached out and gave the lever a good tug. In quick succession the glass pane forming the bulk of the cockpit quickly retreated, and the chair Blake was sitting on, Blake included, launched upwards out of the Mini-Jet. The Mini-Jet itself followed its path, which Blake had expertly aimed right into the center of a group of Ambleweeds. The jet cut through the plant Leftovers, smashing them into dust, and burrowing itself into the road, smoking. Would the road be damaged? Yes. Would it have been damaged anyway? Probably. Did Blake care either way? Not really.

Meanwhile, Blake himself ricocheted backwards, sitting in the chair, until he pulled a small lever on the side, sending a parachute stored on the back of the chair careening upwards, with Blake slowly descending in his chair towards Earth as he got a good view. He sat there, waiting, until the parachute-hoisted chair reached a modest distance, at which point Blake hopped off, landing softly on the ground. He was a bit away from the action now, but he had hopefully done a good number on the Ambleweeds, and he also hopefully wasn't too far away. He was ready to rumble, and there wasn't much stopping him now.

Blake rushed down the roads of New Athens, bumping past a few people as he did so. He then took a left into an alley, where he saw a flying dumpster hammer an Ambleweed off. There were very few people that used dumpsters as weapons, and Blake believed he knew who this trash-wielding person was.

"Tom!" he called out as he ran over to the Spacewalker at the other end of the alley. "See you've already gotten hard at work," Blake continued as he peered out of the alley. It seems the fight was getting closer yet.

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Hi, I was wondering if i could join this RP? Here's my char:

Hider

Name
Kristy Amadeus

Hero Name
Geo-gal

Nicknames
Kay

Gender
Female

Age
20

Date of Birth
Feb 7

Physique
Kristy is your standard fit tomboyish character. Born with a natural chalk-white hair tied to a ponytail, dark-light skin complexion. She stands about 5'7ft tall, has an athletically built physique, muscle-toned bod almost mistakenly for a boy. When in hero form, the texture of her skin changes into something more rugged, more rock-like.

Blood Type
AB+

Occupation
Student/Hero

Affiliation
H.E.R.O

Tier
B+

Personality
Kristy is a girl of few words. A reserved individual you'd almost think she's a mute. She avoids unnecessary interactions to a degree. Not that she's a snob or anything, She just has trouble expressing her emotions through words and is more of a listener. Aside from her quiet nature, she is quite sweet, studious both in academic, physical training and hero work.

Backstory
Kristy Amadeus, born at Brookside moved out into Kingsdale. A model student. A promising individual moving up into the upper-class with a bright future ahead. She studies at a prestigious school excelling both in physical and academic studies with multiple careers ahead of her. It almost seems like a perfect story for an up and comer hero right? Well, that's only the surface of it.

Her story didn't start so well due to her shady family background. Before Kristy established herself into this law-abiding student/part-time hero we see today. She was formerly known as the only daughter of one of the most wanted villains in all of Brookside and goes by the codename: Paul "Geo" Money.

Geomoney was a loving father and also an ill-famed mobster who possesses earth-based powers and is one of the crime bosses in that district. His reign ended during one of the raids of H.E.R.O association at the time after months of planning to track him down, killing him in the process.

Kristy was only a toddler back then when this tragedy happened. Without a caretaker nor contact with her other relatives, Kristy became an orphan at a very young age.

As collateral, the child was taken under the care of H.E.R.O protection program. Wiping her identity clean of her past or any connections from the gangs of Brookside and force to live a normal life despite being built on a lie. From there, Kristy was raised by a loving family who is willing to adopt her and was secretly funded by the H.E.R.O association until college.

Kristy turns out to be a great asset to the H.E.R.O despite being only a part-timer. Up to this day, She is still oblivious as it remains a mystery on what her true heritage was or who her true father is.

Power
Crystalized Body - With a simple touch of any mineral from any source, Kristy can coat herself into an exoskeleton suit made from the earth itself. This suit of rock hide armor covers her entire body which gives her top-notch defense against physical harm in exchange for her mobility. She can also make projectiles from these stones at her disposal for long-range attacks. When in close combat, She can form rock-based constructs made from the minerals attached to her body.

@Argonaut

We're more than willing to accept another hero to the crew! Welcome aboard!

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Howdy, thanks for applying and all that! @LukasVolkov I have a couple quick reviews for both of your characters.

Xeno

• I would really appreciate if you could find a faceclaim to help better visualize. I understand it is difficult, and let me know if you really have nothing, but as they say, a picture is a thousand words.
• I hate to shoot down ideas, but I'm having a lot of difficulty understanding the "alien" thing. All powers should be centered on a singular theme- "fire manipulation," "metal-bending," "mind-reading," et cetera. I can't really get a good read on your powers from what you've described here. The problem is that your central theme of your power was a one-off, activated thing, which I don't think really fits into the RP well, and I'm afraid I can't fully follow your description of Matthew's psychic power. PM me if you have difficulty understanding what I'm trying to say, I'm trying to give a condensed version to avoid writing a whole essay or anything.
• This is probably more of a 'me' thing than a 'you' thing, but I don't understand the whole rescue sequence. His line got cut, nobody saw him, but he managed to contact a rescue crew somehow who couldn't do anything until H.E.R.O. got there? I'm afraid I'm a bit lost in that regard.

Flamenco
It's a cool character and it makes sense to me! If you could get a FC that would be great, but outside of that, I think this character is good!

Appreciate your application, if you could just make those changes that would be great! If you need me for whatever reason, I'm available on both the Guild and Discord to chat about characters, powers, the story, or just life in general!

《 H. E. R. O. 》

Sorry this is a bit late, but Here's my villain.

Jake Coulson

Name
Jake Coulson

Code Name
Mr. Gimmick II

Gender
Male

Age
63

Date of Birth
July 18th

Physique
Despite his advanced age, Jake is in good condition, packing some muscle in his 6'2 frame.

As Mr Gimmick, Jake uses a body armor that can be changed and modified depending on the theme he is using at the moment. The default Mr Gimmick costume uses a green colored covers with a red G in the breast plate. The mask consists of a helmet helmet with black goggles. Jake uses a fake blonde goatee attached to the face with theater glue both in this armor and any other costumes he may decide to wear.

Blood Type
O

Occupation
Villain (Junkyard owner in civilian identity)

Side
Villain

Affiliation
None (Formerly Ham & Cheese)

Tier
C

Personality
To Jake, being a supervillain is more than just being a criminal. It's about being an artist, with banks and jewelry stores as canvases and gadgets and powers as brushes. He takes the rules of villainy very seriously and doesn't like it when villains try to take a theme that's already taken. As Mr.Gimmick, Jake uses several themes, but considers it an earned privilege. He also won't borrow another villain's theme without permission. Jake is polite and respectful, both in and out of costume, though his Mr.Gimmick persona is also playful. He tries to act as a parental figure and mentor to younger villains.

As of late he has also began to make supervillainy a movement, a quest to prove that being hero doesn't give you the moral high ground. He also has a deep hatred for Darks (violent antiheroes popular in the 90s), especially after Shadow Spectre incident.

Backstory
Some villains are in it for the money, others for power, and some for the fun. One of the latter was Jake's mentor Henry Walker, the original Mr Gimmick. He was the inventor of the campy supervillain archetype, who broke the law using a certain theme. This fad was quite popular during the 50s and 60s, and what drew Jake into villainy.

Jake became a villain at the age of 13. Back then he was little more than a bullied loser, until he met an older man, who told him about villains and how they did what they wanted and never let themselves get pushed around. From these lessons Jake gained confidence to confront his bullies and defeat them, while also gaining a friend and mentor in the man, Henry.

Eventually Henry retired, leaving Jake to become new Mr. Gimmick. But like his predecessor, Jake is getting old and soon needs to find a successor of his own. But who would be worthy of following such a legacy?

To find a successor, Jake decided to resurrect Ham & Cheese, an organization of campy supervillains from the 60s.
He managed to get himself a bunch of young villains also interested in becoming thrill villains. Unfortunately things took a turn for the worse when Shadow Spectre attacked Ham & Cheese's headquarters. Nobody was killed, but Mr. Gimmick's new proteges were injured and/or traumatized by the event. Now Mr. Gimmick once again works solo, this time to teach heroes the true meaning of good and evil. Legacy can wait until the Heroes of Castleburg have learned their lesson.

Power
Jake is a trained gadgeteer with some adventurer training, including boxing, added in, though he's using the gadgets more and more. Gadgets are designed with interchangeability in mind so that they can be reused multiple times. Jake is a talented escape artist and stage magician, which he uses to escape. He also knows a lot of creating costumes along with gadgets.

Hero comes next.

@Chiro

Funny character for sure, but I think he'll make a good fit! Welcome!

I'm interested. Though I will be PM-ing you a question. @Hitman
