Echo

_{"You mean, I can't hit on all the girls? Darn... Are there at least cookies?"}

Alias: Echo
Real name: Scout "Echo" Carter
Age: 22
Gender: Female

Appearance: Standing at a rather tall 5'8" and weighing in at 145 pounds, Scout is mostly muscle. Having been a tomboy most of her life, she's not really used to getting 'dressed up' like other girls. In fact, she hates dresses. The only reason her hair is long is because of her dad who liked her hair so much he refused to let her cut it short like she wanted. Brown eyes are framed by high cheek bones and a soft complexion. Her lips don't usually get chapped considering how much water she drinks on a daily basis. She isn't super health conscious but she knows that water is a must if she's going to play outside all day. Her chest isn't very promonent but she prefers it that way, since bigger boobs would just get in her way. Though, she sort of wishes she had a bigger, more toned butt. You'd think with all the running she did, it would be less... flat.

Scout's uniform in a wellfitted spandex suit. It is orchid purple with a white strip running down the center with her 'Hero Logo' on the front, a set of rings that gradually disappear as they get farther out from the center. She has a few buttons on her suit that when activated release swaths of fabric or tubes that allow her to create different sort of sounds. She'll also carry around a random instrument of some kind that changes from day to day, though she prefers a guitars. She's been known to carry around a sax, a harp, a flute, and even more unconventional instruments like pots and pans and sticks.

However, at start her 'uniform' will simply be her hoodie pictured above, and a purple mask over her eyes. Basically, her uniform at this point would be a rectangle piece of fabric with hole cut for her eyes which she ties around her head.

Personality: Scout grew up in a rather hectic home. Actually, she grew up in an RV/Tour Bus most of her life. Her father was a rock star, a fairly famous one at that. She would have lived with her mother in a steady home had her mother even wanted her around. Scout had never been the most... accomodating child. Scout loved her father and because of him she grew up to be a person who loved life, every moment of it. She's never without a smile on her face, even in some of the worst situations. Usually when she gets down, she pops in her dad's old CDs and falls asleep listening to him. When he died, nothing much on the surface of Scout changed, but behind closed doors, she gets pretty depressed. She likes to be around people mostly because it keeps her mind off of the bad stuff, like the fact that her mother refuses to fund her way through college. Scout flirts, a lot, but mostly because it keeps people from asking if she's okay. Nothing better to change a topic than a quick grope and a slap to the face. Though, she'd have more friends if she kept her hands to herself.

Short Biography: As most heros, Scouts powers came about after a freak accident. One day, when she was fairly little, she was messing with her fathers sound equipment. She was on the stage, while her father and the other band members were all asleep in the old RV, and was pretending to be a rock star like her dad. But, a sudden storm came and with the sounds of the music she was playing drowning it out, Scout didn't even notice it. A lightning bolt came crashing down from the clouds and hit the mic Scout was rocking out on. When she finally came to, she was in the hospital. It didn't seem like much else happened after that. But recently, with her dad's death, her emotions started to get the better of her and her powers began to surface. At first, she didn't really understand what was going on, but eventually she pieced it all together. There was something weird in that storm that gave her these powers. That lightning bolt did something to her, changed her somehow. But what she didn't understand was why it didn't surface until now...

Powers, Skills & Equipment:

-Sound Manipulation: Scout can manipulate the sounds around her. She can create sounds with her mouth and other tools, but can only manipulate them with her mind. The use of her hands to 'mold' the sound waves is only for her to better visualize what she's trying to do. She can't do too much right now except mimic sounds with her own voice, changing the sound waves as they escape her lips, and change sound waves in certain ways like changing the pitch, amplifying sounds, and shifting the sound waves to distort them and the listener. Scout has also found that certain materials break and shatter at certain frequencies and has begun to test and keep a journal of different frequencies needed to break certain materials. The process is quite long and frustrating, however, so she doesn't spend too much time doing it.

-Super Speed: Scout's always been sort of athletic, but her speed is another thing altogether. She can keep up with most cars, even race cars. She can use this speed to create sound waves and create what she calls, "Sound Typhoons" which will hit targets like a brick wall being thrown at them.

Weakness(es):

-Earplugs: Take away Scout's ability to hear, and you take away her ability to manipulate sounds. Same thing with her voice, cause her to become mute and her power is diminished, though not as severely if you took away her hearing.

-Young: Scout still has much to learn about the world around her, much less her own powers.

-No-No Square: On the back of Scouts neck is a strange symbol in the form of a scar. It is a small circle with a strange lightning bolt insignia on it, presumably from the accident. Whenever she touches it, she feels weak and her knees begin to give way and she gets a horrible headache. She often yells at people for trying to give her backrubs, even if she does want one terribly.

-Skirt Chaser: Scout has a thing for pretty girls in cute skirts. Though, she doesn't really like hanging out with them as much as she does the guys. She much prefers getting down and dirty and acts it. She has a foul mouth and likes to play rough, often making jokes that would make even the best of friends a little peeved with her.

Full Biography

Scout was born out of the love affair of a pastor's daughter and an upcoming rockstar. Rachael, wanting to have a bit of fun before she finally gradutated college, had met Ned, the lead singer for his upcoming band, the Skinners. She met him at a party and had had a few too many drinks. Within the next couple of months, she'd graduated thinking she'd never see him again. But, things wouldn't end so nicely for Rachael. She began throwing up in the morning. Luckily, she was in her own apartment so she didn't have to worry about her parents finding out but her sister found the payment sheet from the doctors from when she'd gotten her ultrasound. Rachael had been planning to abort the baby and just let it be swept under the rug her parents refused her, saying that if she didn't have that baby, they'd disown her. And so, she had the baby. But, she refused to name her, telling the doctors of her father. "Just let Ned know. He'll take her."

The next few days, Ned spent his days traveling back to his old hometown to visit a doctor who said he had Ned's child for him. The other band mates were very supportive and even happy for him. Ned wasn't so thrilled. However, that was before he saw her. He saw his baby girl laying in that room with the rest of them, and his heart filled with love for the poor girl. When he picked her up, the deal was sold. He looked up at his mates with the biggest smile they'd ever seen on his face. From then on, she was called Scout and was often joked to be the bands "Talent Scout" and sometimes even came on stage as their mascot. The fans were very receptive to Scout as well, they all loved her. At the end of shows, she'd come out on stage and 'dance' for them in random outfits and even sing for them sometimes.

Then, Scout's accident happened, and Ned saw his life flash before his eyes. From then on, he kept close tabs on Scout, much to her irritation. He even stalked her when she started dating guys. However, Scout soon figured out that she didn't really like guys. They all just reminded her of the guys in the band. Soon, she began dating girls in secret behind her dad's back. She'd always tell him she was just hanging out with her friend. He never even suspected a thing until he walked in on her and her girlfriend at the time in the living room of the Tour Bus. He'd screamed for the girl to get out and had a rather long talk with Scout about lying. She'd expected him to be mad about her preferences but he never even mentioned anything about that. He was more upset that she'd lied to him about it.

From then on, things went fairly smoothly. Ned watched his daughter idly, a soft smile on his face. The other band members started trying to hook her up with 'hot chicks' and stuff like that. It was all pretty nice until it happened. He was on a normal average run to the store from the bus, took a cab. But, the small store was robbed that night and... Ned never made it out. She'd never gotten the full story on what happened, no one seemed to want to tell her even though she was 18, seemingly old enough to know. She was home schooled, so the other band members took charge of her and sent her to school, where she studied vocals. She quit about half way through figuring she already knew all this crap and came back to try and take over the Skinners but by the time she came back, they had all split up. It also didn't help that with her powers, it was a bit hard to make friends. Going to the bathroom was easy and everything sounded nice because she could alter the sounds and she'd always sing perfectly, but she'd lost her drive. Now, she simply wanders, as if something random would spark her interest and give her something to do for awhile.

Lol. Thanks!

Aww... Well... What a rockstar without a tragic young death that no one saw coming? And Grimmarch is the city full of criminals. :P
I need to not mess with my characters so much, don't I? -grumbles-

She feels very 'batman' to me in a way. I mean, her mother might as well be dead to her. I'm sure her mother feels the same about her.

Let me know if I need to change anything. I'm not really sure how to lead into the whole 'super hero' thing. I guess she could just decide one day to use her powers productively when she sees shit going down in Grimmarch, where she'll start out. Any advice on that?

QUIX Universe - Main Hub

"Total sound manipulation" is one of the best things ever. Just imagine you make the wings of a fly play a song. :P

@Defacto

"Dude, your speakers are shit. Lemme fix that."
"But, when you leave it'll just be shit again."
"That's your problem."
"..."

QUIX Universe - Main Hub

@LHG100 That sounds fucking cool as shit... o-o;

Also, if there's a problem with my potty mouth, lemme know. I'll filter.

She could also bring along instruments and such to create sounds for her to manipulate.

"Watch, I can run so fast, that sounds come out of this sax. HAHA!"

Or... "I needed a loud noise. So, I brought a pan and a spoon. Everyone knows pans are like the best makeshift drums ever."
-proceeds to bang on the pan excessively-

Though, that might get a little weird. She could also create 'sound darts.' Like, she can start running and then whistle a sound that, depending on how she moves her head and lips, acts like a dart and can go for enemies as she passes them. And I quite like the name Sonic Boom.

"Though... Just don't call me Sanic. And go forbid, if you play that dumbass song, I'll mute it so fast."

OH... She could 'mute' people. Altering the sound waves that come out of their mouths to cancel them so that they can't talk. I'm liking this....

QUIX Universe - Main Hub

I have a personality and picture in mind but I'm still thinking of a power to give her. The rest will come as I create her.

Arts

Actually, I was sort of thinking Sound Manipulation or just straight up Super Human Athleticism. But I figure either of those might have already been taken. Have they? I'd also need to figure out some CS reason she got the powers. Lol.

@LHG100

I suppose it depends on my workload and how into the RP I am. And once a week is usually the least I would do unless I'm just having writer's block. And if that ever happened, I'd be sure to keep you all posted. Considering my RP bestie is here, I doubt I'll leave that easily. :P

So yeah. I'd always let you guys know ahead of time if I'm busy or otherwise uninspired. If I get super into it, I might post more.

Also, something I might suggest for posting. And, don't take this as me trying to... command or some such, I just think this idea is good for people like me who are too busy to read EVERY little thing that doesn't concern my character. Obviously, I'll try but if the posting gets too much for me to keep up with, I'd recommend, for my sake and because they can be sort of funny, summaries at the end of each post. I usually do them as little tidbits of the important stuff that happened. For example,

Example Summary

[Taken from another RP I'm currently in.]
Ada and Lorelei were almost late.
Lorelei is a scarlet.
Jennings Taylor.
Ada got elbowed by Lorelei pretty seriously.
Ada tackled Lorelei.
They laughed.
Bartime.

So, feel free to do it if you wish. I kind of like doing them. :P

I'll have to head over there. :D

And yes, that's my OC, Lily making a worried expression about something. Lol.
I have more arts if you're interested in see some of it. T3T

QUIX Universe - Main Hub

I hope you don't mind a Driving Park Stalker to come aboard. >.>;

Before I do try to join though, I wanna let you guys know that I already have 3 other big RPs I'm dedicated to on top of going back to school within the week. I might not post but once a week. If you're willing to deal with that, then you know. Lemme join. If not, that's cool as well. I'll respectfully walk away. And then whine to DP later about still wanting to join in.

Meanwhile, I'm going to go brainstorm and go image hunting which I haven't done in a while. :P

OH, and I'm Rose. I follow Deepz around, Deepz follows me around. It's a never ending cycle of following. I'm a 20 year old female going into her junior year of college. I like the Legend of Zelda, clumsy and/or badass female characters, music, manga, and a plethora of other things. I'm also very talkative it seems... uhh...

@Unfortunately

Ye. Thanks for the welcome! :D
It's good to have internet again.

In other news, I found out when I go back to school. I'll be moving on Friday and then my final is on Monday, I believe. So that weekend I may be doing a lot of studying. And then on Sunday, I'll either be messing around with my friends I haven't seen in a while or doing more studying. So until things settle down, I may not post with any haste. Though, this RP isn't moving quickly enough for that to really be a problem. I'm sure I could crank out some posts if I needed to. It helps to take break from studying anyway.
