@PaulHaynek: So, uh... Guess I probably should've clarified this.
Now, uh... The thing with the BlazBlue world, for the purposes of this RP, is that it's one REALLY long string of boss battles, one after the other. I'm fine with characters stomping nameless enemies into the ground, but, uh... For future reference, could I ask you not to autohit named enemies like you did there? Relius isn't meant to be a character that should be allowed to be flicked around like a ragdoll. At least, not in a situation like this.
Besides, I had other plans in that fight. =3=;;
Don't worry PKMN, you see the line 'Should he be successful'? Anything beyond that can be disregarded by you (unless there's additional stuff). I just put those in so my posts won't be three sentences long.
The blonde man rejected the orange-y-haired girl's offer of peaceful diplomacy. Something not unusual.
"Oh, how boorish of me, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name... Is Relius Clover. I shall be your opponent; I sincerely hope you are worth pulling my attention away from my research."
With a spread of his arms, Relius' robotic companion disappeared into thin air. Alex was now sure this guy was no pushover as he prepared himself for any tricks the blonde man had in his sleeve. It was also time for Alex to find out if he's still got it.
Relius ordered his blob ally to engage the girls as he himself went to deal with Alex and the guy next to him. Relius leapt forward for Alex's ally and from, seemingly, his cape came forth a large mechanical fist to deliver a vicious uppercut against him.
Alex was quick to react. Whatever happened to his ally, the Blacklight virus immediately grabbed hold of Relius.
Should Alex be lucky (i.e. successful), he would, almost effortlessly, hurl Relius some distance away. He would then follow up with an attack from the air, his curled up fists ready to smash Relius into paste.
Alex followed closely as the group of teenagers headed to where the fighting was at. The sounds of combat grew closer but suddenly, two figures stood in their way, stopping the group dead in their tracks.
One was a fair-skinned male sporting blonde hair and wearing an equally-colored mask (the masquerade kind). His clothes resembled those found in the Renaissance, its primary colors being purple and white. With him was a tall, female of milky white skin and short, blonde hair wearing a pink dress, a large pink... hat that appeared to have two metal protrusions, also pink in color, that was as long as her. Alex spotted that her hands were larger than her head and her robotic activation told him that this woman was more metal than man.
The other figure was something Alex was more familiar with. It was a shapeless mass, pitch black in color. It had a circular, white mask with only three holes for a 'face'. Strange appendages stuck out of it. Alex thought was a pile of biomass if he ever saw one. It was something he had seen before but never actually fought against one. Still, a fight was coming on.
Alex cracked his knuckles as spoke to his comrades. "Looks like we're not talking our way out of this." He remarked before continuing. "Mind if I take on the robot?"
------- 13th Hierarchial City of Kagutsuchi -------
After a few moments, Alex heard a familiar voice and gazed upwards. It was the energetic girl with the orange-y hair. She was among the first to introduce themselves. It seems she was going to be Alex's teammate for this world. He was not very sure about having a young teenager for a wingman but since she was among the summoned, it was likely that she was more than meets the eye.
One thing did bug Alex, how come she appeared in the building's roof when he appeared on the alleyway? The virus shrugged at this minor prospect and decided to rendezvous with the schoolgirl. Alex lowered himself to gather strength before leaping upwards, the gathered strength propelling him further and letting him reach the roof in a single bound.
Landing upon the rooftop, he saw the orange-y-haired girl hugging a similarly-aged girl sporting blue hair. It appeared that Alex was in the middle of a reunion and figured he should let these two have their time.
Name: "Alex Mercer" Age: 1 (Yes, really) Gender: N/A World of Origin: Prototype Personality: Quiet and reserved, "Alex" is still adjusting to find his own personality and not to imitate the countless ones he has consumed. He mostly lets his adoptive sister make decisions for him and is quite protective of her.
Despite his cold looks, "Alex" is pretty gullible, taking people's words for it almost without question. Not a major flaw since he is a night unstoppable killing machine that can usually exact payback if deceived.
History: After saving Manhattan from a nuclear strike in the events of Prototype 1, Alex has settled with his creator's sister Dana. Despite what had happened and "Alex's" nature, normal life had returned for the Mercer siblings. Since then, "Alex" had stopped consuming other humans since there was no longer need for instant doses of vitality nor need for vital information. Instead, he consumes normal food which can sustain him but leaves him quite far from his fullest potential. Not much of a problem since he had no powerful enemies to fight.
Still, not consuming large amounts of biomass had already disabled "Alex's" Thermal and Infected Visions and also weakened his tendrils, rendering them unable to consume even the basic of living beings. The virus just shrugged at this developments, knowing little that this was the first steps to something he might not like.
Abilities:
Blade - The Blade is a powerful and deadly cutting and thrusting weapon, perfect for slicing and swiping through even the toughest of armor.
Claws - Claws are the most prominent anti-personnel ability. Biomass is shifted into 4-digited, talon-like appendages that can be used to shred flesh and bone.
Hammerfist - Hammerfists are primarily an anti-armor power. By shifting large amounts of biomass towards the hands, large hammer-like weapons are formed. Slow but inflicts really heavy blunt damage.
Whipfist - The Whipfist is a thin, flexible, blade-edged arm that can be used to attack at extreme range, or whip through entire crowds of enemies. Tame your foes from a safe distance.
Musclemass - Musclemass acts as a strength augmentation to Alex Mercer's arms. It greatly increases close combat damage and the distance debris can be thrown to deal with distant enemies.
Armor - The Armor consists black plates of hardened biomass; formed all around the body. While in this form, Alex Mercer is equivalent to a humanoid tank. This ability increases damage resistance overall, at the cost of movement.
Shield - The Shield soaks up damage automatically until it shatters and regenerates automatically. A lesser defensive measure than Armor but allows Alex to move about more freely.
Disguise - This ability allows Alex to "disguise" themselves as the last human target he has consumed. This ability allows him to alter their exterior to resemble the consumed and also gaining their memories. Alex's current disguise is of a U.S. Marine, a soldier he consumed fighting the Supreme Hunter during the Manhattan Outbreak one year ago.
Regeneration - This ability allows Alex to heal wounds and replace flesh. It is a slow process that requires hours if the damage is severe. Consumption of living beings speeds the process but Alex has stopped doing that.
Other: - This character is a mixed bag of canon and fanon material.
