It was true. Vader's glassy gaze was terrifying. In truth, the way it seemed to gaze into a person, and then beyond them at the same time was so... Tangible. Silently, the lord of sith stepped towards Khyrr. Strange how something so big could even dream of moving silently. And Vader was big. He towered over others, and the black silhouette of his form made just the way he moved larger than life. Until he finally stopped, letting his shadow smother Khyrr. The only sound was his breathing. Long, deep inhales, followed by the chilling gasp of an escaping breath.
"You have talent." He said, breaking the long silence. "It's a shame you have chosen the wrong side in these events. But... I can offer you a way out of your current life. The rebels here have shown themselves to be zealots. Fighting to the death if they could. But you were attempting to flee. That means you value your life above a meaningless cause and some trumpeted dream of r-"

"Don't listen to him! That sick bastard would cut you down in a se-" A rebel pilot shouted at the top of his lungs, and was silenced in a crescendo of gunfire. Lasers searing his body to a crisp, and letting it fall to the floor. His attempt to do something with his life ended before it could matter.
"Rebels so willingly throw their lives away. But if you choose to instead work for me, I can offer far more than they can, and all I require from you, is a call. Once daily. If you become my spy amongst their midst, my wolf amongst their bantha... Why you may prove more valuable than a whole deal of others to me." Vader's gaze never changed. Not that it could. But it was clear. Denial meant death. Agreement meant selling his soul to the devil. Choices, choices. "You have five seconds to make your choice." Vader hissed, and the sound of charging plasma rounds made it clear. 5... 4... 3...

We know the stories of Hercules! We know all the greek myths of gods and goddesses. Of men who could carry the sun on a chariot! In the far north the heathens believe in a wolf who can swallow the world, and the celts believe in witches! Are you so shocked to hear these tales? Of how Hercules completed his trials? How Poseidon raised a sea from dirt! Of how the Morrigan cast a curse upon men!?

Then you will be shocked all the more to know that these are not myths. No. Super humans exist. These timeless entities who grace our comics do not just originate in paper. But in real events.

The premise, so far, is a superhero story, set in a historical period rather than modern day. Instead of a suped up car, Batman would be riding in a horse drawn carriage. Or the Hulk would be a gladiator. We'll be creating heroes for this period in history.

At the moment, I am looking for somebody with experience in a hero story to be my Co-GM.

EDIT: I'm open to different time periods. Nor is the goal to limit superpowers. Essentially, any kind of power you can see in a modern Superhero story is viable in some way in a renaissance period. You can even make power armor clockwork in design if you want. General goal is to open up heroes in different time periods.
I'm honestly still here. I just don't know whos turn it is.
EDIT: Okay so now I've given him a look over and there are 2 things

1) He needs a civilian identity, and a regular job. Maybe it can be like Martian Manhunter where he has some sort of cloaking device or transforming disguise but he needs to be able to appear human on a day to day basis and only turn into his true form when needed.

2) He's very OP.
Bulletproof is okay but overall he is too durable, basically anyone who doesn't use 'magnets' cant even touch him. You also need to be more descriptive on what 'weapons' he can transform himself to use. It should be limited number of clearly stated attacks and abilities not an endless possibility of 'adaptation'. Also scrap adaptation altogether, its too vague, have some clearly stated reactive (and limited) transformations for specific situations.

There is no Magic in this RP so his weakness to it is pointless.

His multi-directional defense flaw is offset by his ridiculous durability.

The other weaknesses are fine, but you'll need at least 2 more significant ones to replace these two.

Tone down the superior intellect, supercomputer smarts are a power all on their own.

Tone down the destructive power of the weaponry.

And obviously tone down the durability a LOT.

I'll add Miles Melendez to the overall lore of the City, if you can let me know how he made his fortune we can add his company or his industry as one of the locations in North Maximum.


Cool, I'll work on this when I can. (I figured a lot of this would need to be balanced down, so I get that. Since he was a character rolled in a previous game with some pretty absurd powers (And his weakness was terrible charisma. Ha.) So it's a bit of a figuring out process.

Not sure about the need for a civilian identity, because I'm planning a kind of immigrant story with him, and allowing him to disguise himself easily can make some of that seem well... Weird. I'll come up with something.
@Dynamo Frokane Hey, I updated XT-001 some more, with some more weaknesses to balance out his power pool.
<Snipped quote by Delta44>

Hi Delta, how's things? I see you around all the time but can never recall what games from? Maybe it's just all the applications I get rejected from :/
I would be classmates but I'm still effectively stuck in the too OP space.
And I don't know how much I'm willing to argue for my own weakness and character development opportunities.
I mean if something I imagined and created doesn't work the way I say I imagined and created it to, well I seem to have lost control of my own intentions and there's nothing left for me to argue.

His power is,
this creature temporarily mutates his physicality into an alternate form capable of handling the situation. It can stretch and grow, increase his durability, speed or strength and even form into mundane weapons and items.

As stated, That's his power! It's not limitless strength, flying, telekinesis complete immunity or magic rays. It's a simple physical buff. And one that isn't always active and he can't even pick or choose when it activates.
It's a bit of Blue beatle without flight and lazers.
Venom without the webs.
Not even as strong or as durable as colossus when at its best.

Gee ppl, regardless of the power I know how to play a non OP character.

But yea long rant short. I just need a simple yes or no. (And I think I got a no.)


Honestly, if it's a strictly physical buff I'm sure you'll be fine. But consider a few weaknesses. Like a weakness to extreme heat, or cold. Something that can cause your body symbiote to retreat. Also, consider explaining how the symbiote works a bit more. At the moment your characters backstory and what not is very bare bones.
@shamrocknroll Yes it is.
