Secretly Super

Ok look, do you think i'm an idiot or something? Don't let my appearance fool you, i'm a lot smarter than you're giving me credit for!
Name: Dimitri Holmes
Age: 23
Power: Serpent physiology: Thanks to the actions of his (now) ex-girlfriend, Dimitri was bitten by a heavily genetically modified member of the krait family, specifically by the species Bungarus flaviceps. Much like a certain web slinging marvel hero the venom has drastically altered his DNA and endowed him with the traits of the animal he was bitten by. Dimitri's physical strength, senses, speed, and reflexes have all been heightened to nearly twice that of a peak human being and his body has become extremely flexible due to a sudden increase of elasticity in his muscles and ligaments. As an added mutation, Dimitri's maxillary sinuses have mutated into neurotoxin producing venom glands that connect to his his canine teeth, which have elongated and become hollow.
Job: CDC intern/College student

Bio (felt like I needed one to explain his powers):

Much like many people Dimitri was just a normal guy who just went through life dreaming of bigger things. Overall he had a pretty good thing going; His older brother was a condominium superintendent and was willing to let Dimitri shack with him through college which gave him a place to stay, he didn't have to pay a dime for his classes thanks to an academic scholarship, and he was a year away from graduating with his masters in both virology and biomedical engineering with a good paying job lined up for him with the center for disease control and prevention. Yes, it was pretty clear that Dimitri had very little to worry about...save for one little thing: His girlfriend Sarah. Sarah...volatile to say the least. Sarah was also a member of the Animal Liberation Front, a group that was considered by most of those familiar with the ALF as ecoterrorists. While Dimitri shared in a few of his girlfriend's beliefs, he lacked her desire to approach the subject with the same kind of radical and often times aggressive methods that she preferred to use.

Sarah would sometimes disappear for days at a time, then suddenly show up at Dimitri's door step either to hide from police or with some random animal that she wanted him to hide with no explanations. One day Sarah ends up dropping off a cardboard box with specific instructions to not let the animal inside of it out under any circumstances. Now, cardboard is useful for many things, however protecting one from snake bites is most definitely not one of those things, something Dimitri learned when he ended up receiving a nasty bite while carrying the box to his room. With his brother away from home for work related purposes, Dimitri had just enough time to peek inside the box and call for an ambulance before he wound up passing out. As the paramedics had not idea to search Dimitri's room prior to escorting him out of his home they had no clue what sort of snake had bitten him, and as such lacked an idea of which antivenom to use to help. Thanks to constant efforts by the medical team that watched over him, Dimitri was kept alive long enough for the venom to work it's way out of his system. Approximately one week after the incident, Dimitri was able to recover and was released, whereafter he immediately broke up with Sarah and tried to resume life as normal. Still, he can't help but shake the feeling that something is different...

Realizing that the teacher had given everyone permission to leave the classroom, Dimitri shot up from his seat -almost literally due to the kyukon water- with a look of pure relief. While he was both grateful for the concern of several of his peers and impressed and curious when it came to Ju-Long's weapon reveal, the boy was still feeling quite overwhelmed by everything he'd been subjected to up until this point and desperately needed to find a bit of space to de-stress. "I-it was a pleasure meeting you all, but I think i'll go ahead and head out before. It was uh....nice meeting you all." he squeaked before exiting the row of seats opposite the others. Dimitri was practically a blur as he made his way towards the exit, moving much quicker than what was to be expected of a person of his size and stature. Upon his exit the meister felt relief wash over him, as well as a marginal shift in his weight. The kyukon water's effects where still lingering, and would likely continue to linger for a while, but Dimitri still welcome the feeling of added weight regardless of how minuscule it was.

Sensing an opportunity Dimitri decided that he'd try to find out of the DWMA had a library, figuring that not only would he find solitude, but he'd be able to possibly look up some locations via either a book or some maps. Locations such as fabric shops that could be used to buy either yarn or silk to make scarves for some of his classmates. Dimitri turned and stepped forward, only to be introduced chin first to the ground in a decidedly undignified manner, the cause of which being the fact that he tripped over Victorique. Dimitri slowly sat up and rubbed his chin, growling softly at the throbbing pain in his jaw. It wasn't particularly bad -no different than taking a good sock to the jaw in a boxing ring- but it definitely wasn't pleasant. It took the meister a few moments to realize that he'd tripped over something that felt remarkably like a body, but once he put two and two together Dimitri turned to face them in order to properly apologize. "Victorique!? I'm SO sorry! Like, really, really sorry! I didn't see you sitting there and....sorry!" He said frantically before he stood and offered his hand to help her up.

Apologies for my absence, after going so long without seeing any further posts I had made the assumption that everyone had simply abandoned this RP. Seeing as this isn't the case, i'll try to have a post up sometime either today or tomorrow depending on how tired I am after work.

Maximum Ride: The Secret

Journal Entry - Day five: Still no signs of anyone...rations beginning to run low, water is also beginning to decrease at a more rapid rate than expected. Don't know how much longer I can hold out down here. Beginning to hear voices. One continually refers to itself in the third person. Calls itself Tim, no idea why....

Possible wall of text for the bio, bear with me.

67 (appears to be in his late twenties/early thirties)
Category:
A
Appearance:

Human form

(he stands a 6'2", weighs 185 pounds, and has dark grey eyes)

Werewolf form

(due to the fact that he was infected rather than born a pureblood, Jacque's lycan state is more human than wolf though he gains roughly six inches in height)

Biological immortality (cannot die of age. Silver, wolfsbane, fire, and beheading will still kill him), supernatural physiology, heightened senses, werewolf transformation (heightens his strength, speed, and stamina to supernatural proportions, he can only turn on the full moon or during bouts of extreme emotion), lethal bite (Jacque's jaws are unusually strong even for a werewolf)

Bio

Jacque's story isn't all that flashy: Prior to his infection Jacque was a private security contractor, which is just a politically correct term for mercenary. Despite the title Jacque's particular job wasn't to move from one war zone to the next to shoot whomever he was told to, rather it was to simply provide security in certain locations on a government payroll when it wasn't considered a politically sound to send actual soldiers to protect government interests. He saw a few fire fights every now and then and even received a few wounds for his troubles, but nothing was ever too serious. It was during one mission in Mozambique that Jacque was introduced to the supernatural: He was staying in a village while providing security detail for a nearby diamond mine when him and a few coworkers were approached by several villagers. After a bit of clumsy translation, Jacque learned that something was tearing apart the livestock and occasionally snatching villagers. Believing this to just be a case of wild animals raiding or possibly even rebels just screwing with the villager, most of Jacque's comrades ignored the pleas for help, however Jacque was not so callous as to completely turn a blind eye to the plight of the villagers. For several nights, Jacque stayed up late to help keep watch when he wasn't assigned to night duty near the mines until at last he found his culprit.

Thinking it to just be a massive wild dog or hyena Jacque took a few shots at the beast only to regret it a few moments later as he was quickly knocked down and mauled viciously. His screams for help attracted his comrades who manages to ward the beast off with several shots, however the damage was done. Jacque -barely alive and mangled to a near unrecognizable pulp- was medevaced to the nearest city urgent care center to be treated, where he somehow not only managed to make a full recovery barely a week later but appeared to be better than ever. News of his recovery spread like wild fire in the city, enough to warrant an american news reporter to interview him for his story. Jacque's story remained in the news for a little over two days before it was replaced by the next celebrity scandal, but the two days was enough for a certain coven to notice and have someone sent out. Having returned to his job Jacque found himself being approached by a strange figure whom would offer him a job back in the states which he promptly denied. Funny thing about vampires; they don't like the word "no" very much, something the figure demonstrated by unceremoniously clubbing Jacque over the head and abducting him. An uncomfortable three day smuggling back into the states later and Jacque found himself to unwillingly be in the employ of the Coven, where he was quickly introduced to the world of the supernatural.

Roughly three decades after his abduction Jacque has managed to settle in and come to terms with what he is, and outside of his job of keeping weaker vampires from sneaking out has even managed to convince a few higher ups to pay him to conduct affairs on their behalf during daylight hours.

Personality:
Jacque is a man whom is known for getting things done. He's well mannered and formal around the higher ranking members of the coven, and slightly more informal and personal around those of his rank or lower. He tends to act a bit more laid back when not on the job, and is known to be sympathetic to the plight of those that have less. Despite all of this Jacque is still a mercenary at heart, and can be cold, calm, and calculating if the situation requires it. One secret that he guards closely enough for even the empathetic vampires to not be aware of, is the absolutely startling level of resentment he holds towards the higher ranks for his forced employment, usually he vents this anger through rigorous exercise. If he is ever given an opportunity to not only somehow kill a higher ranking vampire and get away with it, he will take it, no exceptions.

I think things might get moving again if you made a post detailing Luna's departure from the group.

Soul Eater SCAR

Dimitri peered into the crack's center wordlessly as if the secret to life itself would be revealed by the tiny hole. The damage was pretty much insignificant, and any normal person would consider him either crazy or unapologetically stupid to get as worked up as he was about it. Truth be told, it wasn't just the crack in the desk, rather a combination of everything that was going on that was bugging him. The crack was simply the candle atop the cake, and his mind -in a subconscious attempt to avoid a mental breakdown from overstimulation- decided to fixate on that one single thing rather than everything at once. Several voices registered in the back of Dimitri's mind, some of which seemed directed at him. It was a combination of these, and the fact that he was being touched once more that snapped Dimitri out of his daze. The meister let out a breath he didn't realize that he'd been holding before each of the words directed to him pieced themselves together enough for him to answer each individual coherently.

It was like his brain was on autopilot, searching for the first response that seemed appropriate and going with it: first came Kalinda who was expressing concern, "I'm fine, just a little bit jittery is all. This is all a bit new to me.", next was Alisa whom seemed to be interested in a partnership, "Sounds fine by me...i'm hardly the pick of the litter myself." he responded without fully thinking through the words, last came Victorique, who seemed to blame herself for what he'd done, "Not your fault. I'm just having a bit of a rough time adjusting to all of this.". It was a few seconds after the last response left his mouth when he realized that one out of the three statements was not like the others. Dimitri was at a loss as to whether he should punch himself in the head or pat himself on the back as he realized that he'd just agreed to potentially partner with someone. On the one hand: he might have just overcome a serious issue, on the other: he didn't know Alisa from the average Joe, nor did he know what sort of weapon she was or what she could do. Dimitri momentarily considered retracting his agreement, however something told him not to. Was it concern over how Alisa would react, fear of not finding a partner beyond her, or perhaps some form of intuition that kept him quiet? Those would be questions for later, right now all that mattered was that Dimitri had someone that was at least interested in being his weapon.

The Many Adventures of the Life Guards (Shade and Diz)

Silly or not, i'm interested to hear what your idea was. Personally speaking I was sort of wondering the exact same thing, since Kassy disappears from the house some nights I was toying with the idea of asking you if you wanted me to play a poacher attempting to smuggle some exotic animals into the city via the docks for private sale, but now you've got me curious.

And so it was decreed: Regis would know what it was like to be the prey rather than the predator. May the gods have mercy on his cold reptilian soul...

Soul Eater SCAR

Dimitri half listened to what to everyone speak, however he gave no input of his own. Under normal circumstances it would simply be due to his lack of social experience, however right now his was so absorbed in trying keep his soul wavelength at a certain level that he was simply unable to give a response. He briefly looked up when he heard Ju-Long say his name, however as the weapon was currently speaking to someone else, Dimitri returned to his task without missing a beat. It was tricky keeping his wavelength going at a constant rate due to the water, however Dimitri felt as though he was starting to get the hang of things. Or at least he did until Victorique tugged on his sleeve. Despite having made a small step in the right direction in regards to dealing with being touched, the sudden action when he'd been so preoccupied caused Dimitri to jolt, and as a result, lose focus on what he was doing. There was a muffled cracking noise under Dimitri's left hand, and a few splits in the wood spiderwebbed out from beneath his middle knuckle.

The meister donned a mortified expression as he stopped and raised his hands to survey the damage. It seemed that either, the kyukon water was more effective than originally thought, desk was thicker than it looked, or the desk was made from very strong wood, as the inwardly dented epicenter of the crack was only about the size of a half dollar, though it did little to soothe his concern. Dimitri's forehead began to bead with sweat, 'Oh sweet death the teacher is going to be pissed when he sees the damage. Please for the love of everything sweet and proper let me have the money to replace the damage.'.
