Player Name: Meri
Character: Pietro Maximoff
Moral Alignment: Walking the Line
Affiliation: S.H.I.E.L.D (And the Avengers in the future?)
Character Origin and Backstory:
Abilities: Pietro moves and thinks multiple times faster than any human. Currently he moves about five times faster than the speed of sound at his top speed. Experiments he's conducted on himself have enabled him to resist effects of friction, oxygen deprivation, and sudden impacts at high speeds. This also means that he's stronger and far more resistant that the average human. Time seems to go much more slowly for him, resulting in extremely quick reflexes and his impatient and abrasive personality. At high speeds, it even seems to stop, affording him immense advantages in his fights. Although not gifted, he's a highly competent programmer, and has made himself an expert on genetics and physics.
Story Arc 1: Eventually goes back into active service with S.H.I.E.L.D, but discovers that his abilities are deteriorating and taking him with them. Becomes a sort of quest to stay alive, with or without his powers.
Story Arc 2: Decides that Wanda would have wanted more for him, tries to become a hero. Here he would be a possible founder of the Avengers, trying to save the world from evil in general with his sister as a motive.
Story Arc 3: Pursuing his scientific side more, he comes up with an efficient way to reverse DNA damage and restore it. Deciding that heroes are more curse than cure, he takes it upon himself to get rid of the worst offenders. Target one: The Hulk.
Sample Post: Pietro stood in front of the flat screen TV, watching part of New York City be destroyed by Bruce Banner. Or the Hulk, more accurately, although he didn't see much point in distinguishing between the two. He'd considered for a moment going to join the two figures who had eventually managed to subdue him, although his motivation was just the desire for a fight. He could hear Wanda telling him to do something with himself, anything other than what he was currently doing, which was nothing. He didn't need to work to keep his luxurious penthouse- S.H.I.E.L.D. had that covered, electricity bills, damages and all. He had no desire to stop old ladies being mugged or to carry out missions as he once had. No, it was much easier to do nothing. Staring at the TV, he recognized Loki, but didn't understand presence the feminine Thor or the small Hispanic girl who fought with her. To focus on them, they seemed rather heroic, but all Pietro could notice was the destruction that only worsened as the woman Thor focused her attentions on Loki with a look of fury. He hit his forehead in disbelief as they crashed into an office building. People were most likely in there, not that concern had been shown.
Sighing, he turned the TV off and turned to face the rest of his cluttered apartment. Surfaces. Surfaces everywhere. He had desks nearly everywhere, with different computers on each and papers nearly drowning them. He'd gotten rid of the bed in his room months ago, needing space for yet another table and another computer. He'd set up a holographic one in the second living room, and connected it to all the others. Some of the computers had work that was months old, and as such, obsolete and completely wrong.
Other: I can't add pictures at the moment because internet issues but for appearance reference Quicksilver from Avengers: Age of Ultron.
One think I think Meridian is that the intro post doesn't really set him up for a story. Everyone elses seems to especially lead up to one of their arcs, my Caps sets up for the Avengers, Bruce Banners is the struggle within, Loki was being a hero, Sthor was the search for Thor etc. Yours just seems to be watching what other people are doing :P
That's the sample post though, the sheet itself (to me) looks fine.
