The Academy of Evil

Roger was considering backing off. The girl’s body language seemed to suggest she was uncomfortable. He watched as she started to sign towards him. He turned around, reaching for his backpack hanging from the back of the seat.

“Here.” He said, handing her the notebook he’d been using and a pen. “I don’t speak sign language, but I can read.” Then Bethany approached. He was glad he was suddenly so popular, though the demonic possession was a little off putting.

“Do I look like a Shelly?” He smirked, then inclined his head to the purple haired girl. “Shelly?” He asked her.

Story to Remember

It may be time for Marco to return.

The Academy of Evil

@HeroicSociopath He's accepted, too, and yes, and he can upgrade as the RP proceeds.

@blackdragon

Rad. Hmm do you think it would be a good idea to mention everyone to let them know we’ve started?

@Duoya @sassy1085 want to help Roger turn himself into a monster~?

The Academy of Evil

Roger was in the back, lounging in his chair during the presentation. He had a notebook cradled in his arm, a pen in his hand. It looked like he was taking notes. He was not. Roger never cared much about rules. After he’d gotten bored of drawing swords and that one S shape, he’d started making a wishlist of different weapons he wanted to buy.

That was not to say he wasn’t paying attention. As he idly doodled, his electrosense was feeling it’s way through the auditorium, sizing up the other students. As the presentation ended, he put away his notebook. He had caught the last bit, at least. This was his chance to turn his life around. Maybe the academy would be a place he could find acceptance. He noticed a purple haired girl near the wall. She looked lonely.

“New here?” He asked Shelly, approaching the purple haired girl with a small smile. He didn’t seem put off by the fact she looked like a zombie. He himself was a little strange looking, though not in a bad way. Roger was tall, at 6’4, with a slender build. He was boyishly handsome, with tousled, platinum blonde hair and smooth, but pale skin. His eyes were crimson, and in the dim light of the auditorium, glowed like rosey embers. He was smiling slightly, and she could see his pearly white teeth, small fangs where his canines were. Upon request, the Academy’s doctors had given him fangs when they replaced his teeth with prosthetics.

The Academy of Evil

Roger

Name: Roger "Destructo" Romero

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Physical Appearance:

His hair looks white in certain environments but really it's just a really pale blonde.

Personality: Roger has lived life by the edges of his fists. He's surprisingly friendly and outgoing. Some might even call him charming. But he is also very quick to use violence to solve his problems. He enjoys bettering himself as a fighter, and his ultimate goal in life is to become the ultimate weapon. He's not a particularly hateful person: He just enjoys fighting and having raw destructive power at his fingertips.

Bio: Roger is one of SOCIETY'S UNWANTED BASTARD CHILDREN. His father was a no-show and his mother never liked him all that much. Growing up, he was a bit of a problem child. He always identified more with villains then with heroes, and he always figured he'd end up as a criminal. He came very close to that dream not coming to fruition. He was in the car with his mother when a drunk driver hit them. His mother died instantly. She was lucky. Roger's body was nearly completely destroyed. They peeled him off the pavement, and had him hooked up to a machine that kept him alive while they tried to figure out what to do with him.

A man in a suit came to him in his hospital room, with a deal. They could give him back his body, and give him a new purpose in life...So long as he signed himself away to become a living weapon.

That night, Roger Romero disappeared. He was taken to a remote facility, where he was placed in a medically induced coma for three months. During that three months, his broken bones were replaced with titanium replacements and subdermal armor. His damaged nerves were replaced with a network of nanomachines, transmitting signals faster than any human could. When he awoke, he could walk and move again. He was faster and more powerful than before. And he was enrolled at the academy. It's been about a year since that accident. He has completed his physical therapy, and meditated on what he wants his place in life to be. Now that the year is started, he is eager to begin his training and become the ultimate weapon.

Major: Psycho

Classification: Minion

Powers:

• Steel Body: Most of Roger's musculoskeletal structure has been replaced with titanium prosthetics, and on top of that, he has armor plates at strategic points throughout his body. This has rendered him very, very durable. Unless they hit a particularly flesh bit most bullets will just flatten themselves against him. He can still be cut, though not usually very deep. In addition, the added durability means his body can exert itself more without tearing itself apart. Roger is thus very strong: A punch from him is no different than getting hit with a sledgehammer, and his strengthened skeletal structure has given him massive lifting power.
• Electric Soul: Roger's nervous system is embedded with a network of electricity-manipulating nanomachines. They serve two functions: They transmit electrical signals through his body faster than would normally be possible. This has resulted in Roger being unnaturally fast, and having a greatly enhanced reaction time. When combined with his other augmentations, he can leverage this improved equilibrium to perform amazing feats of acrobatics and balance. Further, they can store electricity: The tips of his fingers and palms of his hands have small black dots on them. If he pushes them to an electronic object, he can absorb electricity. After absorbing it, he can discharge it to anything he touches directly with his skin. The power of the charge is normally equivalent to a stun gun. He can limit the output to only on a given area of his body, such as his hands or feet, to release a more powerful electric attack.
• Electrosense: Roger can use the machines in his nervous system to sense all solid matter within 100 feet of himself. So he can use it to sense a person on another side of a wall or behind him, but he couldn’t use it to sense a lake or a fire and he couldn’t read a computer screen with it.

Skillz:

• Hand to Hand Combat: Roger is skilled at unarmed combat. He does not have a particular style: Rather, he's just been in a lot of fights. He lacks formal training, but he can still throw a good punch. Combined with his cybernetics, this has made him a fierce opponent in a fistfight. Roger is capable and willing to kill with his bare hands.
• Firearms: While in his physical therapy, Roger took the liberty of beginning firearms training. He knows how to shoot a gun, and the reflex-enhancing nanomachines in his body augment his skills to make him a very competent marksman.

Equipment (If any):

• As many guns and explosives as the academy is willing to loan him.
• Some shuriken he bought off the internet.

Other: Hmm can he replace his body parts with more bits of machinery as the RP progresses?

Is there a sign-up sheet?

Steelbird Landing: A Roleplay After The End of it All [18+, 6 player limit!]

Posting a WIP for now. This is pretty much an Apocalypse World RP, right?

WIP

Mr. Happy

¤ Age, approximately.
20s.

¤ What Are You?
The Hocus. Mr. Happy leads a cult called The Order of the Unicorn. They are a group of self-proclaimed occultists that are mostly just in it for the drugs and sex and because pretending to be magical is really fun. Their practices are a meaningless amalgam of Satanism, Hermetic Sorcery, Necromancy, Dungeons & Dragons, and other shit that Mr. Happy made up. Worship includes unconditional love and support, talking about things that are stressing each other out, tabletop RPGs, pizza parties, sacrificing goats and the people that piss Mr. Happy off, painting, doing drugs, orgies, and other fun stuff. His followers have lives outside of him, but they do depend on him for spiritual guidance, and also his services tend to be pretty rad. His group usually has about 8-15 druggies, perverts, and other psychos who are interested in the occult and emotional support. If he can get 10 or more together to do a ritual, sometimes, just sometimes, they say he can perform miracles.

¤ What defines you?
Mr. Happy is a fucking WEIRDo. Those scars on his face? He's a pain addict. He did it to himself because it makes him happy and his dick hard. The star tattoo on his forehead is something he got Conair (his tattooist) to burn in there with a hot knife.

¤ Who are you?

¤ What do you want?
Mr. Happy kind of wants to die, but worries about how his followers would fare without him.

¤ What do you believe?
Mr. Happy believes that the universe is ultimately a cold and uncaring place. In Mr. Happy's world, we only have each other.

¤ What do you follow?
Mr. Happy follows his empathy. At the end of the day, he wants people to be accepting of themselves and others. He is willing to make sacrifices in order to achieve this.

¤ A scarcity embodied:
Love is scarce enough that people are willing to take it from this weirdo. Or maybe the people he hangs out with are just so fucked up that he's the only one who's willing to love them.

¤ Basic Instincts:

¤ Spill Your Guts

¤ What is the worst thing you've ever done to stay alive?

¤ What do you most regret doing?

¤ Who do you owe?

¤ Who owns you? Literally or figuratively.
At the end of the day, he belongs to his followers way more than they belong to him. Mr. Happy is the sort of person that needs attention. His followers have lives outside of him, but Mr. Happy's entire life is built around his flock. Without his support group, he'd be even more self-destructive.

¤ Who did you fail to save? What did it cost?
A follower that was dear to him, Bible, suffered from depression and committed suicide. Mr. Happy blames himself.

¤ Who makes you feel (angry/sad/murderous/lustful)the moment you lay eyes on them? Why?

¤ What/Who are you addicted to? What are you willing to do to acquire it?
Mr. Happy is secretly very depressed. He uses a combination of alcohol, LSD, marijuana, stabbing himself, and pretty much any other drug he can get his hands on to treat it. He's smart enough to avoid the kill-you stuff, at least. He actually mooches a lot of his drugs by asking his followers to bring them to parties. He, Raven, and Ampersand also maintain a modest, yet most dank marijuana crop. Parrotfish comes to service off and on but always has a massive amount of acid.

¤ Who's intentions do you question?

¤ Who wants you all to themselves?

¤ Who or what do you worship?
Mr. Happy believes, at his core, that man is the master of his own destiny. Yes, he thinks that demons exist that can grant magical powers, but he thinks that mankind is the one that must invoke them. Mr. Happy says he worships Satan, Pazuzu, Tiamat, Azathoth, and Cthulu. But really, he only worships Man.

Hear the Whispers...

When Mr. Happy opens his mind, he sees darkness. The cold, uncaring infinity of the universe, with himself at the very center. He wonders if life is nothing more than a dream.
