Name: Shokuhou Misaki
Gender: Female
Appearance: "Hello there~!"Personality: Misaki is, in short, a very mischevious and cunning person, though her demeanor at first glance seems to say the opposite. Though she often acts cheery and cutesy, in reality her somewhat self-serving nature is made clear when not digging into her own past. Her frivolity with her abilities is also something of a byproduct of her current situation, as she has the ability to do so. At the same time, though, Misaki has her own set of morals and tends to not bring harm or malicious misfortune on any targets of her ability... Regardless of whether or not they want to be manipulated in the first place. Amusingly enough, Misaki prefers working solo or with a partner rather than in large groups and, surprisingly enough, is able to compromise with Misaka when it comes to dealing with major problems throughout the city (such as the Elements, Kihara Gensei, or even the city itself). She's still a bit silly at times if the situation calls for it, and isn't below petty things like cutting in line for something she wants.
Brief History: Shokuhou Misaki, the Number 5 Level 5 in Academy City, is a
very popular person within the School Garden, having been dubbed the "Queen of Tokiwadai" due to her own overreaching influence over the school. The "Queen", of course, never ruled Tokiwadai as she does now, as about a year ago she had a chance meeting with a certain spiky-haired Kamijou Touma. Not unlike the more recent incidents with Misaka Mikoto, Touma also ended up happening upon Misaki sporadically throughout the summer of that year; it all came to an end, however, when a group of rogue ESPers who wanted to beat up Misaki attacked both her and Touma. While Misaki was eventually able to force the ESPers into beating one another up, the damage Touma had taken meant that he would either have to suffer through the pain of surgery to repair his body (and die of shock) or take anesthetics (which would lower his already-low blood pressure); either way, had Misaki not stepped in to use her ability to nullify Touma's ability to feel pain, he likely would have died. As an unfortunate side effect, the procedure left Touma with targeted amnesia towards Misaki and Misaki alone, and would never retain any memories related to her from then on.
Of course, that was all in the past; as the Queen of Tokiwadai, Misaki's lifestyle is about what one would expect from a popular girl, with a few key exceptions: namely, the occasional incident where she steps in to try and resolve issues plaguing her past or for her own personal interests. How much she does or how much she succeeds, though, is another story entirely.
Universe of Origin: Raildexverse (A Certain Magical Index and other related series)
Equipment: A pocketbook with way too many remotes to count. Said bag also has a few essentials (quote her) such as a cellphone, purse, various forms of ID, and a certain little whistle.
Abilities: Misaki, as Academy City's No. 5 Level 5 ESPer, has the ability 'Mental Out'. In layman's terms, it is a form of mind control that works by manipulating bioelectricity within the brain and spinal fluid. To be more specific, Misaki manipulates the water within on an incredibly minute scale and alters its conductivity to enact her will on others. The ability has incredible breadth, having a range from anything as simple as a mental message to full-blown memory and emotion manipulation, provided she has a remote to channel her ability through. Of course, those abilities will be
severely toned down for the RP as follows:
- No usage of mind control/memory manipulation/emotion manipulation on PCs/most major and minor NPCs with plot relevance. This is usually the biggest issue with mind control and all associated powers, after all, so let's just dodge that bullet right now.
- Misaki can only manipulate one person in very fine detail with her mind control at a time, but more people (up to 5) can be used if given simple commands. She can memorize control groups (up to 3), but switching between them continuously is very taxing on her already-frail body. Simple commands can persist for a while after she's given them, bit only for so long. Adding a new group requires removing a prior one from memory.
- Misaki's ability is limited almost exclusively to humans and beings that are humanoid in physiology unless she would have sufficient reason to be able to enact them on other things. This means that she cannot, say, take over animals, kaiju, ghosts, or other phenomena of that nature unless stated otherwise.
- Memory manipulation is a delicate process and requires time to execute. She can enact mass memory wipes to remove an incident from public record, but the prior issues regarding immunity to mind control also apply here. She can wipe memory of being mind controlled as she gives control back, though, so that must be noted.
- Mind control has a maximum range of 5 miles, and her ability to control people further than 3 miles out is not only far weaker, but also takes more effort on her part. Simple autonomous commands can persist for a period of time after they leave that area of control, but no more.
- Misaki must have been in contact (as in face-to-face) with a target before mind controlling them. This does not apply to memory wipes, but does for more nuanced manipulation. To that end, she also cannot control by proxy, and will have to have met every relevant target for this to function. If that person was in a 'control group' that was since abolished, she will have to make contact again in order to be able to mind control them again.
- Misaki must always use a remote to execute a command via mind control, and different commands require different remotes. She can only take control of (register) one person at a time, though, so she remains vulnerable while doing so.
Misaki herself, though, is incredibly weak in terms of physical strength; while not "weak" in the most common sense of the word, she has zero physical strength and zero stamina for any activity that involves actually moving around; even a light jog is enough to wind her.
Other: For all intents and purposes, assume she's from NT18. In other words, she knows about the existence of magic, Othinus, and all the other messes that come about as a result of that. Also technically a bit about the Windowless Building. Nothing detailed, though, and I'll be making sure not to spoil people on more major plot developments if possible.
Name: Leonardo Watch (just call him Leo)
Gender: Male
Appearance: "Why did I think this was a good idea?!"Personality: Unlike the more headstrong and somewhat-reckless people of Libra that he spends his time around, Leo's actually one of the more meek and laid-back people in the organization, and actually often shies away from getting wrapped up in dangerous situations if he can help it. His abilities mean that he cannot actively take part in fights, but that by no means doesn't mean he doesn't have courage when it becomes necessary. Of course, that doesn't mean he can commit to something that
requires said courage instantly; slowly but surely, never backing down—that is how Leonardo Watch works and moves.
Leo is also surprisingly quick-witted in situations of peril, but for the most part is rather relaxed among familiar faces, if not a tad awkward.
Brief History: A few years following New York City's spontaneous transformation into Hellsalem's Lot, Leonardo and his family travelled over to the city to see if they could restore his sister Michella's unusable legs. Rather than find that, though, they encountered an entity dubbed 'Riga El Menuhyut' who proposed a deal upon its own whims: one of the siblings would lose their eyesight forever, while the other would obtain the "All-Seeing Eyes of God". While Leo froze up in a mix of shock and fear, his sister offered her own eyes as tribute, believing that she who had no way of moving on her own anyways would lose nothing from not being able to see either. The being accepted, and thus Leo had the Eyes forced upon him. The result of this, of course, was the start of Leo's own journey—to find a way to restore his sister's eyesight and aid Libra in their job to keep the balance in Hellsalem's Lot stable.
Universe of Origin: Kekkai Sensen (Blood Blockade Battlefront)
Equipment: A pair of goggles and a camera. 's about it. Unless you count the Mach Monkey (named Sonic). If so, him too.
Abilities: The All-Seeing Eyes of God are a special pair of eyes that Leo obtained from that fateful encounter in Hellsalem's Lot so long ago. Other than having the ability to percieve things at a far higher speed and/or in far higher detail than most ordinary humans (and some supernatural beings) can and being able to heal from damage over time, the eyes also have the following abilities:
- Leo can see the 'true form' of anyone and anything. This does not apply to shapeshifting, but does apply to things such as illusions.
- Leo can project his eyesight onto the eyes of others, or change what one person sees with what another sees. The ability can target multiple people at once, and even has the possibility of targeting inanimate objects such as cameras and the like.
- Leo can, with enough luck and time, see what another person has seen in the past. The ability is incredibly finicky, though, and seldom has use.
As a downside, though, his eyes can overheat and cause his body damage (which is inherently different from the eyes being damaged, since they aren't magical in origin or anything). If they're overused after that point, they begin to crack. If they're strained after
that, then they self-destruct. Needless to say, that would be
bad.
Other: Is followed by a Mach Monkey named Sonic who, as the name would suggest, has the ability to move at the speed of sound. The thing has a will of its own, but mostly just follows Leo out of its own volition.
Name: Tenshi Hinanawi
Gender: Female
Appearance: "Come now; entertain me.Personality: A bit spoiled at heart, Tenshi has no qualms about causing problems if it means she can quell her boredom. She's a very headstrong and stubborn person, and, unlike most other Celestials, is less detached from the world and more willing to get her hands dirty for her own entertainment. Her various defeats during the course of the incident she caused, coupled with a few years of downtime, being forced to rebuild the Hakurei Shrine and dealing with Iku, though, have caused her to gain a sense of humility. She's still a tad proud and haughty, but a little less bratty than she was before.
Brief History: As a Celestial, Tenshi grew up without much want for anything, save for some sort of entertainment; after all, Heaven's a pretty quiet place if nobody's really
doing much of anything. Eventually, the young girl became so fed up with the boredom that she decided to wreak a bit of havoc in Gensokyo. By abusing the power of her Sword of Hisou and her keystones, many residents who lived in that bounded land were swept up in her plan to cause a mess and have some fun.
Said mess also caused more or less every resident in Gensokyo who was affected to come up to where she was waiting and beat her up for causing the incident, and also caused her to be forced to have to rebuild the Hakurei Shrine (which she destroyed with a dead one-two earthquake-keystone combo). She hasn't done much since that incident, but needless to say she's learned her lesson. Doesn't mean she might not try something again in the future, but hey, she's learning, right?
Universe of Origin: Touhou Project
Equipment: Tenshi is the owner of the Sword of Hisou, a divine weapon only able to be used by celestials. The weapon itself has the ability to identify a person's spirit, then turn that spirit into scarlet mist which can then be translated into the ability to control the weather. The sword can also be used to cause things such as localize earthquakes, create shockwaves, or just fire a giant laser at people. The weapon itself can appear and disappear at will as well, though where it goes is something only Tenshi knows. In terms of appearance, it looks like a golden jian wreathed in flames, though the flames can
also be turned on and off.
Abilities: Other than the ability to fly (which is basically a mandatory prerequisite in Gensokyo) and an abnormally high durability (as in, able to ward off thrown knives and the like), Tenshi also has the ability to control the earth... But mainly in the form of causing and calming natural disasters. Things like earthquakes, landslide, and all possible related phenomena are under her control. She also has a lot of keystones to use as both danmaku and actual damage control/causation along with the ability to fire lasers and bullets. Also spellcards. Those exist.
Other: Her knowledge of the world is relatively small, and in matters regarding technology and the like she's kind of naive.
