@FantasyChic Any sort of character is fine. ^^ Hell, you don't even need to end up on the ship at any point in this RP. We've got action that'll happen everywhere.

X-Men: Cosmic Crusades 👽

Starkette

Location: Xavier's Institute - Outskirts of New York
{"It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me."}

---

---

Some of the mutants didn't look too happy about S.H.I.E.L.D. being there, while others seemed enthused by the possibility. It was more or less what Starkette expected, as even the Avengers didn't always take too kindly to S.H.I.E.L.D. The reactions tended to be mixed at best, no matter what the situation. It was one of the reasons that Starkette never told her father about her employment. She didn't imagine it would be a conversation that would end well. Of course, her mind went away from that as Cassandra gave her a friendly pat on the shoulder, and Starkette looked back at her S.O., smiling a bit awkwardly.

As Professor X mentioned her name, Starkette gave a bit of a wave to those in the room. It bothered her slightly that they weren't introduced as Agents Starkette and Reed, but it was a small detail. And of course, that only meant that it caught Starkette's attention even more. It was the little details that she fixated on, causing her in the past to have gone on hour long rants about the difference between playing Mario Kart on the Wii Remote and the GameCube Controller, and how it created a dichotomy between players that was ultimately unfair. She also had definite opinions about most movie relaunches (spoiler alert: she hates them).

Her attention returned quickly to the debriefing shortly after Marygold began speaking, as she listened a bit closer once the woman mentioned Nick Fury, the man who was ultimately Starkette's boss. He was the highest up on the food chain at S.H.I.E.L.D. and most likely one of the few reasons that O.M.E.N. hadn't absorbed their organization yet. She frowned a bit, recognizing Sabretooth from the intelligence that Cassandra and her had been prepped on. It annoyed her slightly how much his hair reminded her of Thor's--couldn't he be a little more creative and spice things up? Go for a look that someone else didn't already have?

Though, those ugly teeth were definitely unique...

Once Marygold finished the report and instructed the X-Men to suit up, Starkette turned to Cassandra, rocking back and forth slightly on her heels to see what her S.O. had to say. She couldn't imagine them not going in to assist the X-Men, especially since a power plant was the target. Between the two of them, they could repair any damage caused, and help to prevent massive blackouts. But at the same time, this would be Starkette's first time in the field, her very first combat mission.

"We're going in, right?" Starkette asked, perhaps almost a bit too eagerly. She had seen news reports of Magneto before, and fighting a man who could control metal sounded amazing to her. She couldn't even imagine the extent of powers like that. "It'll be pretty epic, don't you think?"

October Crypt

---

Interacting With: @Nallore Carolina Reed
Location: Saranac Lake

---

---

With Carolina taking the box from her, it freed October to go into a more defensive position. She created a ball of flame in each of her hands, ready to launch them at a moment's notice. Truthfully, she didn't know whether or not the office would survive the fire she had started in the house. She only assumed that he would, and if he didn't, she wouldn't feel guilty about it. The peculiar girl had no pity for the police officer and had no fear of flames.

She ran through the woods after Carolina, dodging branches as best as she could as the woods became thicker. Although October could no longer see the officer, with the house now fully ablaze, the officer did manage to make it out in time. He radioed for back-up, before staring at the column of fire, and swearing as he radioed in for the fire department. The risk of a forest fire seemed too large, and if it did spread, it could easily wipe out the entire town.

"I'm not sure," October admitted with a bit of a smile. "Fascinating, really, isn't it? It's so strange, and I must admit, I haven't the foggiest idea what these inscriptions mean...We could be dealing with anything, really." And rather than being put out by that, the possibility of the unknown enchanted October. She put out the fire in her hands, having practically forgotten she carried it, but a spark seemed to remain in her eyes.

"Oh, not to worry, I'm fine," October reassured her friend, looking Carolina over carefully for a moment. She didn't notice any problems, beyond the girl's mental state. The encounter seemed to have affected her friend, and for a moment, October couldn't help but be curious as to why. Glancing upwards, October saw the storm continued to rage on, with the moon only appearing for bits and flashes. It couldn't have been later than three in the morning, with this entire hunt beginning three hours ago.

"Perhaps we should attempt to open it. It'll be a few hours before Faust expects us back, I imagine," October mused. She considered herself to be fluent in gibberish, able to understand and communicate with words that seemingly had no meaning. Though communication was quite challenging, as very few others in the world claimed to be fluent in gibberish. Truthfully, October knew no one other than herself that was. Communication, then, was quite impossible.

But still, she tried. "Ene eretu gecet. Dimiepo ne toyevoh bi mate usohoyo ri ahevice utepa yeloro: Asecare rere lesa nis datowit mi gacacuy timira tateh. Rasid orola iemagan yabeha orirurep.

Mupo mitic na di nocer pipi tuh tir," October said softly, tapping the box as she went.

Nothing happened, of course, and October huffed. "Maybe it wants a blood sacrifice...?" she asked, looking at Carolina, as if to see if the girl thought that was also a logical idea.

Lizzie Roswell

Character Summary

Name: Elizabeth Louisa Roswell
Aliases: Lizzie, Wonderland
Age: 20
Birthday: October 13th, 1998
Birth Place: New York, New York
Gender: Female
Powers:

• Hallucinogenic Touch (involuntary) - Those who have direct contact with Lizzie experience hallucinations and delusions, with the effects increasing exponentially the longer contact is maintained. Psychics, such as telepaths, and those with fast regeneration factors are usually resistant.
• Illusion manipulation (voluntary) - Lizzie can create and manipulate minor illusions with her mind.

Affiliation: Brotherhood

---

---

Appearance

Height: 5'6"
Weight: 118 pounds
Build: Skinny
Eyes: Caramel brown
Hair: Warm brown
Skin Tone: Tanned
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: None
Personal Style: Lizzie tends to have a little bit of a punk vibe to her, with a splash of the 80's. She likes having her hair up and as curly as possible, though it's naturally a mess, so it doesn't take too much work. She wears big broad rimmed glasses, despite having perfect vision. As for clothing choices, they tend to be darker colors. On a day to day basis, she loves a good pair of jeans and a black turtle neck. But when it comes to combat, it's a lot more practical for her to have as much exposure as she is comfortable with. Her main weapon is the deadly toxin her skin produces, so short sleeved shirts and fingerless gloves are the way to go.

Psychology

Intelligent * Blunt * Brave * Strange * Creative * Opinionated

Sexuality: Sapiosexual
Relationship Status: Single
Personality:Despite what her codename may imply, Lizzie is not insane. Instead, it would be more accurate to say that she is incredibly sane, to the extent that she can appear to be alarming or disturbing. She's so smart and clear headed that she's frightening at worst, creative at best. Everything she believes makes sense, but sometimes it's the logic of a philosopher compared to a normal person. It doesn't always make complete sense at first, sometimes not until a while later.

She's also incredibly independent. She spent a long time in the service of others and has decided to fight for herself now. She tried hiding in the shadows and doing things the way of the X-Men for a long time. She tried to fit in, but society didn't accept her. It used her. So since it treated her like that, she decided to abandon it. In some ways, her actions can be seen as selfish, but she's incredibly loyal and passionate to her cause and those she cares about. She just shows it in her own funny way.

Habits: Humming, tugging on her gloves
Hobbies: Reading, "ghost" hunting
Fears:

• Losing her mind
• Being experimented on

History

How did you discover your powers: Lizzie's powers developed around when she was four years old. The official story was that her parents died in a murder-suicide with an unknown cause, though it was suspected to be financial problems. It wasn't until she was on her third foster home and yet another foster parent went homicidal that Lizzie understood what was happening. Anyone who had physical contact with her experienced hallucinogenic effects. These effects only grew stronger the older she got, but at a young age, enough expose to them was enough to turn innocent individuals into murderers.

Why did you choose the side that you did?: Humans had been exploiting Lizzie for the majority of her life. While some of them claimed to care about her, it always ended up revolving around what she could do for them. They never cared about her, but more importantly, Lizzie realized that they'd never accept her. The Brotherhood of Mutants would accept her--she could have a real chance at having a family with them. It wasn't that hard of a decision to make.

General History: Lizzie was born in New York City to a mild mannered couple: her father was a dentist and her mother taught engineering at a private, albeit small, university. They were the picture perfect family, until her mother killed her father and then committed suicide in their apartment. Her aunt and uncle were her designated guardians, but after a day, they took Lizzie to the orphanage, claiming that she was possessed by the devil. This pattern continued with various foster homes, with Lizzie never staying longer than a month and sometimes only for a day.

She eventually grew a reputation for herself among foster families as a she-devil. Her foster parents typically ended up committing murder or being killed themselves, relapsing into addition, or being institutionalized - that is, if they tried to ignore the rumors and care for the girl. These rumors eventually attracted the attention of a New York City Crime Lord, Delilah "The Undertaker" Camelio. Delilah had been searching the streets and children's homes for mutants. She had found about two, with Lizzie being her third.

The idea was to train the children into becoming her enforcers. There was a boy who could fly and a girl who was a human lie detector. Delilah had a doctor on retainer, Dorothy Pender, in order to see to the care of the mutant children. She didn't want them to treated at any hospitals and in Lizzie's case, treatment was difficult - physical contact had to be limited. As the mutant children grew up, they began to specialize in different roles. Lizzie was used as muscle originally, as it was hard for people to fight back when under her effects.

However, Delilah realized a better use of Lizzie's powers. Provided that customers were already in the right mood, Lizzie's powers were often the equivalent of an intense acid trip. Delilah began to sell hits of Wonderland, eventually becoming one of the most popular designer drugs in New York City. And all it required was a bit of physical contact with Lizzie. Her body produced the toxin naturally.

Lizzie stayed with Delilah and the others until she was nineteen years old. Her "brother" had been gunned down in the club and in the resulting chaos, her sister, Max, had fled. While she thought of Delilah as her mother, Delilah became cruel and belligerent, searching for more mutant children to groom. Lizzie started to hate her adoptive mother and when Magneto came searching for a mutant called Wonderland, she was more than happy to sign up.

🦄 After Miranda - A Firefly Rp - Season 1 (Completed)

@Lady Amalthea Sorry for the delay on making this guy. Had one almost done, then got a better idea, so here's Fitz!

Fitz Townsley

Fitz Townsley

---

---

Character Summary

Name: Fitzgerald Ellis Townsley
Aliases: Fitz, Dr. Townsley
Age: 29
Birthday: January 5th
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Birth Planet: Osiris
Allegiance: Neutral
Starting Location: Newhope
Gender: Male
Occupation: Engineer

---

---

Appearance

Height: 5'8"
Weight: 140 pounds
Build: Average
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Brown-Blonde
Skin Tone: Slightly pale
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: None
Personal Style: Fitz dresses for comfort and tends to wear the same sort of outfits over and over again. This usually means a colored shirt and a cardigan, sometimes with the addition of a tie. Rather than slacks, he favors jeans, and his pants occasionally have grease stains on them from his tinkering.

He also loves a nice jumper, especially when he's feeling a bit cold. And for Fitz, this happens to be most of the time. His hair is a bit unkempt, but he never allows it to get out of hand and cover his eyes. He also always tends to have a pair of sneakers on, never wearing any sort of open-toed shoe.

---

---

Psychology

Kind * Socially Awkward * Intelligent * Introverted * Funny * Jealous

Sexuality: Heterosexual
Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Fitz is one of the sweetest people in the 'Verse, never willing to give up on a friend. Even in the more dire of circumstances, when everyone else has lost hope, he won't give up. His determination and resilience have gotten him this far in life, and while he may be a bit naive as to who he puts his faith in, he's as loyal as they come. He would rather see his loved ones happy and be miserable himself than have the situation reversed as well.

Of course, he isn't very good when it comes to social norms, sometimes coming off as either shy or weird. He stutters and stammers around new people, attempting to reach out to them in his own way, but simultaneously afraid to do so. Once his social anxiety is overcome, his funny and charming nature comes out, as well as a fiercely protective (and potentially jealous) nature. He cares incredibly deeply about his friends, to the extent that he would sacrifice himself for them without a second thought.

Habits:

• Nervous stutter
• Tapping the side of his head

Hobbies:

• Tinkering with parts
• Board games

Fears:

• Cerebral hypoxia
• Drowning
• Reavers

• People
• Science and Technology

History

The Reason You Chose The Side You Did: While Fitz grew up on Osiris, an Alliance planet, his parents never really instilled an adoration for the Alliance in him. However, they didn't give him any reason to favor the Browncoats either. He was raised to have a loyalty to science, and thus, a loyalty to whatever organization supported scientific research. It's only been rather recently that he left the university behind and sought out to gain new experiences, and he hasn't formed an opinion one way or the other just yet.

History: Fitz's parents were respected professors at the University of Osiris. His father taught maths and his mother specialized in chemical kinetics. Between the pair of them, there was always a great deal of pressure on Fitz from an early age to achieve something remarkable. He was the older in a pair of twins, as well as the only boy in the family, and his parents pushed him even harder for it.

While his twin sister always seemed to be naturally gifted when it came to math and science, Fitz was average by comparison. It didn't matter that he was a few years ahead in math--his parents expected more from him. Rather than being naturally gifted, Fitz had to work incredibly hard for years in order to perform just as well as his sister who seemed to understand the most complex systems effortlessly. Of course, it wasn't that his twin was more intelligent than he was--they just had different learning styles. Hers was auditory while his was more hands-on.

Fitz's hard work did pay off, after all, as he was accepted to the University of Osiris, originally intending to study cybernetics. But that never really was his interest, really being more of his sister's thing. He ended up studying electronics and engineering, learning about power systems and weapons. His determination and resilience saw him through schooling, allowing him to eventually earn his doctorate degree in engineering, and receive a research position at the university.

For a year, Fitz continued on in the safe bubble of the university, dabbling in various bits and parts of engineering. His nose had been stuck in a book for almost the entirety of the conflict with the Alliance and he had never left his home planet. One day, he woke up and instead of heading into his research lab, he got on a transport shuttle and headed for Newhope. He wants to see the world and he can't see it all from a lab desk.

Strange New Waters - Concluded

@BlueSky44 Only one question - which navy was the father a member of? Prussia had an incredibly small Navy, with just 13 ships, and hardly ever deployed them. However, it is possible that her father joined either Denmark or the Netherland's Navies, both of which were seafaring powers.

Also, needs some hobbies.

Psychology

Spunky * Impulsive * Courageous * Adrenaline Junky * Compassionate * Idealistic

Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Amelia is a girl after Captain Marvel's own heart. She is fearless, able to take leaps that would paralyze others with fear. Her personal philosophy is that if something is worth doing, then there's no sense in being afraid - that you just have to charge forward, consequences be damned, and fly. She doesn't look before she runs, taking leaps of faith instead and for the most part, this has worked out for her. She is very courageous, but also intuitive - her gut essentially is one of her key assets, helping her to determine the unknowns in a situation and come out on top.

She loves the rush of adrenaline. She's a bit of a daredevil, the sort of person who would try out Parkour routines on the internet without it becoming ironic. The more her blood is pumping, the more she feels alive. Of course, she also is a very compassionate person, wanting to do her part to build a better world. She wants to reach out and touch the sky. She believes she can do anything.

History

Why did you want to become an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.?: Amelia had gone as far as she could with the Royal Australian Air Force. They refused to allow her to train as a fast jet fighter. She was discriminated against on the basis of sex and race. And while she knew that the United States was no walk in the park when it came to either of those issues, S.H.I.E.L.D. promised that she wouldn't be limited when it came to what craft she could fly. She could realize her dream of becoming the best pilot in the world. She took their offer and didn't look back.

General History: Amelia's mother died of cancer before she had learned to crawl. She was adopted by her uncle, growing up in a small two bedroom flat. Her uncle's "roommate" lived there as well. The two of them were very loving and caring, always encouraging Amelia to chase her dreams, no matter what. She always loved airplanes - her uncle's roommate was a flight instructor, so he would take her up as soon as she was old enough to handle the altitude changes without crying. Her uncle was a history teacher at a local high school and he would read to her books about Amelia's idol - Amelia Earhart.

Once she was fourteen, she got her Student Pilot Certificate and when she was fifteen, she graduated to the Pilot Certificate, able to fly on her own. Tragedy struck soon afterwards however, as her uncle's "roommate" was killed in a plane crash. It had been a clear and sunny day, when all of the sudden, massive clouds rolled in as he was out for a flight and once the clouds cleared again minutes later, he was gone. His plane wasn't recovered. Her uncle didn't take his death well, denying that his "roommate" was dead. He went off the deep end, becoming a full blown UFO conspiracy theorist. He lost his job and neglected Amelia, causing her to sign up with the Royal Australian Air Force as soon as she was eligible at sixteen and a half years old.

Amelia loved being a part of the RAAF. Women had been cleared for combat in the late 80's, so she was trained just the same as the men - well, almost. They didn't allow women to train as fast jet fighter pilots - something that had quickly evolved into an obsession for Amelia. She wanted to go higher, further, faster in service of her country. She wanted to taste the sky and push the limits just as her idol Earhart had done. Her talent as a pilot drew the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D. and they promised Amelia that she wouldn't be prohibited from anything on the basis of gender, so she accepted the offer, leaving the RAAF after four years of service.

She went to the Operations Academy, progressing through it in four years as standard. While Amelia learned a variety of techniques, her heart was always set on piloting, so S.H.I.E.L.D. allowed her to concentrate there, letting her fly experimental craft from Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. even. She even got to fulfill her dream of becoming a fast jet fighter pilot. In February of 2020, Amelia underwent terrigenesis due to the Terrigen Bomb event, gaining the ability to manipulate the air - to fly.

Birthday: January 30th, 1690
Nationality: English
Birth Place: Port Royal, Jamaica (English Territory)
Affiliations: The English; Calico Jack; Caribbean Pirates

Education: Self Taught
Social Class: Lower Class

Appearance

Height: 5'8"
Weight: 11 Stone
Build: Athletic
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Ginger; Wildly Wavy
Skin Tone: Fair
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: Pierced ears, branded 'P' on right forearm
Personal Style: With a shock of ginger hair, Harlianne already stands out in a crowd. Her pale face, by some miracle, is only nearly always sunburnt. Of course, she manages to cover it up with the same old hat she's been wearing since she was a little girl, a gift given to her by her adoptive father and former Captain. As often as she can, she wears the beaten brown coat pictured in the photo, partnered with various weapons. Everything is about function and form.

---

---

Psychology

Loyal * Manipulative * Curious * Stubborn * Clever * Reckless

Sexuality: Heterosexual
Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Harlianne was raised to be a pirate, and so, she acts like a pirate. She looks out for her own self interest, twisting words and manipulating individuals if needed to get what she desires. The difference between good and evil doesn't bother her, as she follows her own moral compass in order to determine right from wrong. However, Harlianne doesn't wish ill on the world. She isn't out for the pain of others. She's merely doing whatever it takes to survive, using her resourcefulness to solve any problem that comes across her. At the end of the day, she'll make the choice that keeps her alive--but she won't needlessly maim or injure.

Of course, she's also got healthy curiosity and a sense of adventure. She constantly yearns for excitement and brand new sights, never content with just staying still. The sea calls to her, with the new wonders it brings each day, allowing her to move and to be free. Harlianne is a restless soul to the bitter end.

Harlianne's weakness is her loyalty to her crew. She'd do anything for them. While she may be selfish, she won't do anything to jeopardize those underneath her command. It's part of her code, the Pirate's Code, that has been drilled into her since the very beginning. And lastly, it is indeed sometimes true that curiosity killed the cat. Harlianne continues to repeat that lesson time and time again.

Habits: Cleaning her nails with a dagger, whistling
Hobbies: Consuming copious amounts of rum, darts
Fears:

• Losing her crew
• Service to Davy Jones
• Corsets

Likes:

• Rum
• The Sea
• Shanties
• Animals

History

Family History: Her father was a English Navy officer who came from a long line of military men. His father before him had been a commodore and his brother was a member of the armed forces, stationed in Virginia, one of the English colonies in North America. Her mother was the daughter of Christopher Monck, the Lieutenant Governor of Jamaica from 1687-1688. He was the Duke of Albemarle and with no other surviving children, her mother, Lady Elizabeth Arabella Catherine Monck, became the Duchess of Albemarle in 1688.

Behind Your Name: Harlianne's name was her mother's creation. Her first name is to honor Lady Elizabeth's childhood friend who died of yellow fever, Anne Harley. While Anne means Favor or Grace, Harley means From the Hare's Meadow. Her first middle name, Elizabeth, is after her mother. It means God of Plenty. Her second middle name, Winnifred, is after her father's mother, and means Reconciled or Blessed.

History: Harlianne James was born in Port Royal during its English occupancy, when five forts defended the port. Two years later in 1692, a massive Earthquake struck Port Royal, practically decimating the settlement. The disaster was speculated to be brought on by the wrath of God, perhaps as punishment for only outlawing piracy in the colony in 1687. Either way, Harlianne's parents perished as part of the settlement collapsed into the sea. The young girl survived by a miracle, as her nurse had stashed her away on a boat, allowing her to survive as the island partially collapsed.

Her small vessel, of course, meant she was alone for a full day. Pirates had come to loot the wreckage of Port Royal, and instead, they found the young girl in a boat, all alone. Her family crest was on her clothing, allowing the pirates to identify the infant by her Christian name. They took the child in, initially intending to hold her for ransom, but realized that her small size could be advantageous. Not only would the English government consent to sending in regular payments to ensure the wellbeing of the young Duchess of Albemarle, but a small kid would be good for thievery, crawling into spots that others couldn't.

She grew up aboard pirate vessels, getting her sea legs properly before she could really talk. The crew became her family and raised her as best as they could, teaching her the tricks of the trade, and ensuring that she'd never go hungry. It was an incredibly different upbringing than what her parents imagined for her. By the time she made it to adulthood, she was sailing under Calico Jack, working with famous pirates such as Anne Bonny. Unlike most of society, pirates didn't care what was between your legs--her sex didn't hold her back.

Two months ago, Harlianne acquired a vessel all of her own, and named it the Bellona. She has been branded physically as a pirate, with most English officers knowing her as Mad Eyes, and clueless as to her parentage. At any rate, she's aiming to make a name for herself as a captain, starting with completing the run for Mr. Alucard.
