Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

Character you have created: Han Xiao Fredrickson
Alias: Wuxia
Speech Color (Actually say what you're using): Brown
Character Alignment: Chaotic Good
Identity: Wuxia- Hidden
Character Personality:

Before the serum, Han was a lovable, empathetic, sensitive, emotional teenager. He liked to play video games and eat unhealthy foods, read books and work on his computer. He was very accepting of all mindsets and despised conflict and violence.

But after, well, many of those traits carried over such as the acceptance and unhealthy foods and video games. But the operations he underwent to adjust his body to the serum and the injection and modification itself. It was beyond painful, total and complete agony. It changed him. It made him quick to anger, condescending, arrogant. It also made him vengeful and merciless. He's kind to those he likes and rude to those he doesn't and pitiless to those he hates. Han is determined, fearless, stubborn. All these traits were due to the serum and the unbelievable pain he went through and although there is a vestige of his old self, it is overshadowed by his new one.

Uniform/costume:

First off, let's start with his appearance out of costume, before and after the flawless serum.

Before

Han was a chubby, even fat boy, his lazy and unhealthy lifestyle catching up to him in his teenage years. His haircut in this photo is the same as it is after the serum, just with a more Bruce lee vibe to it.

After

As you can see, the flawless serum burned off all the fat leaving extremely little, it also stretched out his bones, adding another 2 inches. His hair, as stated before, is still as long as in his before picture. On his back, are four holes with a black covering, where he was hooked up in the accelerated recovery chamber.

Now onto his outfit, not having much to put an outfit together, Han made his own outfit using his own intellect and the materials he had available to him.



Using an old set of paintball body armor he found, he reinforced it with various materials. Along with that he wears finger less black gloves and black cargo trousers, tucked into black combat boots. All topped off with the bottom half of a paintball helmet, that covers the nose, mouth, and chin. His head and eyes are exposed.

Origin Info/Details:

Han Xiao Fredrickson was born in Lost haven, Maine. His mother died in childbirth and his father never entered the picture. He was adopted by a gay married couple when he was 3 years old, The Fredricksons. Growing up, he loved sweets and food and everything that makes you soft (As he would put it now.) He had an interest in video games and computer science from an early age and excelled in math and science. While not the most in shape kid, Han was plenty popular, the lovable friend to many people. Never lovable like a boyfriend, but lovable like a puppy, which always annoyed Han. Still, he couldn't complain about his childhood.

Then, the summer of his 16th year, he was walking down the street in the evening with his crush, Lily Wallowitz. She was Latina, with dark skin, black hair, and green eyes, which absolutely enthralled Han. It was the evening that would change his life forever. Two men in masks dragged them both into an alley, kicking and punching and sedated Han, jamming a needle into his neck. The last thing he saw was Lily being slapped unconscious by the other man. When Han awoke, he was in a sterile room, in white clothes. Just a bed, no windows and a single locked door. He waited for about 30 minutes, trying several ways to get out, before a young man with combed blonde hair and ice blue eyes walked in. He introduced himself as the son of the CEO of Lawson Pharmaceuticals Incorporated, Jeremiah Lawson, and Han had been chosen for a special honor. He was going to be the first successful subject of a formula called 'The Flawless Serum.' Or so Jeremiah hypothesized, as this was it's first complete form and many lives had been sacrificed to complete it.

He explained Han was the perfect subject due to his flabby and lackluster body and superb intellect. The serum would turn him into the peak of Human physical and mental form. Terrified at what this would bring, he fought the guards all the way to the testing chamber, which held a round white pod elevated at an angle with all types of wires and other various devices coming out of it. Han was forced into it, being restrained and strapped down. He shouted and screamed, but no one came to save him. He watched helplessly as rows of needles rose from either side of him and slammed into his body, injecting a blue liquid. He screamed in agony, dozens of needles piercing his body, but this was tickling compared to what was about to happen. The needles withdrew and the pod closed.

What happened next, Han doesn't even recall, just bright light and horrific, blinding, stinging pain. It seemed like days, every once in a while stopping to be stabbed and ripped at with needles and sharp objects. Han would go in and out of consciousness. Sometimes from exhaustion, sometimes from the shear shock of the pain. He felt like he was in hell, like this was his punishment for all eternity. Then it stopped and it was dark for a while. Then he woke up, in a giant tube. The water around him was green-ish and he seemed to be breathing through a mask. His mind and his vision were fuzzy and he heard someone talking to him. Jeremiah Lawson. Lawson went on and on about now he was the perfect human that his tests had been successful and the things that they could do together.

Then someone broke in. The lab had been breached and an unknown person was causing havoc to bust something out. Someone out. Finally Han's mind cleared a bit more. And he and the newcomer coordinated to bust out of the lab and out of the building Han was being kept, which was in Augusta, apparently. Han discovered that the serum had totally changed him and that he was indeed, the perfect human. He also discovered that he had been missing for four months. The hero and Han returned to Lost Haven, to report he was safe and changed. He told his story to police, that a mysterious organization starved him for science and didn't tell him anything at all. It wasn't hard to fool everyone that he was the victim of a psycho and now he was okay. Though he did have trouble explaining how he gained two inches and lost 40 pounds of fat and gained 30 of muscle. But he was able to direct conversation to avoid that subject.

Meanwhile, he pleaded to the hero that saved him to teach him how to fight so he could take down Lawson Pharmaceuticals and prevent more people from being abducted. The Hero agreed and after gathering some supplies and makeshift armor, Han took on the role of Wuxia, pledging to destroy Lawson and take down his company.

Do you know how to post pictures on RPG boards?: Yes.

Sample Post:

Han felt weightless, light, and cool. His head was swimming, his back ached. In fact, just about his whole body ached. Ached a lot. Vision came to him slow and a green hue seemed to coat everything. He heard someone talking in the background and finally his vision cleared. He was looking at a lab, he vaguely noticed the fact that he himself was in a tube with what appeared to be green water. He was sluggish and slow, like he had barely any control over his body. He saw a scientist look up from a monitor and at him and turned to a man in the corner. "Sir, he's awake." A blonde handsome man in a business suit walked out of the shadows and approached the tube. Han's eyes narrowed and an anger began to burn in his chest. "Ah, Han, you are a marvelous being! You survived! The world's first perfect human being. I know it hurts and I know you're probably sore to your very bones right now but look at yourself, you're a new man, my friend!"

Han did indeed look down at himself slowly and was shocked at what he saw. He was ripped, bulging chest, abs, muscular arms, everything. Even his legs, which were covered in skin tight boxers, were defined with thigh and calf muscles. Han looked slowly back up, examining his arms and hands, as a flurry of bubbles blocked his vision. It was just now that he realized that he was wearing a mask to breath. "Impressive, no? Months of treatment and therapy, plus a close call that required electromagnetic tubes to be installed into your back, but you are indeed flawless now." His words began to fade away as Han's eyesight darkened and one of Lawson's scientists said "Sir, we're losing him, he's going to fall unconscious." Lawson walked away and waved the scientist off, saying "No matter, we have more tests to run any-"

There was an explosion that rocked Han's tube and sent the scientists sprawling. A commotion. But Han was falling deeper and deeper as the fighting got closer. Then it was in the lab and all of a sudden, Han was alert and light, his head clear. He saw someone standing at a monitor, adjusting things and looking up, nodding to Han. They were drugging me, Han thought. He got angry. Really angry. He felt strong. Stronger than he ever had in his life. The teenager looked at his hands and looked at the glass. He reeled back and sent his fist slicing through the water, smashing into the glass.

CRACK!

A spider web of glass cracks appeared. Han knew he could go stronger, he threw another punch.
CRACK!

The web got bigger and he saw as the water began to leak out. Han looked at his knuckles, they weren't even bruised. Han threw his final punch, stronger than ever before. He spilled out into the lab and cried in pain as he remembered that he had electromagnetic tubes within him. He shrieked as he pulled himself off of them, electricity crackling through him as he finally broke free and flew forward, tumbling to the ground. When he opened his eyes, he saw them standing over him, hand outstretched. "Welcome back, Han. You've been missing for four months."

So yeah, still looking for a mentor if anyone is interested.

Hey, just found out about this and I would love to create a character to be a sidekick to a Hero and eventually evolve into an adult hero themselves.

Man all you badasses taking martial arts, all I do is try and work out and not be fat. But, I'm enlisting, so the army will teach me how to kill soon enough.

Purgatory: The Demon Order [Interest Check]

Where you are from, isn't important. All that matters is that you were deemed skilled enough and powerful enough to join our ranks. Congratulations, you are a defender now. You will be with us until They kill you. Or you die of old age, which is next to impossible in our line of work. Millions of people are counting on you to keep Them out of our world. They will always come, no matter how many you kill. It's best to get used to that. Sure there will be lulls in the action, a few months, maybe even a year. But it won't last. Never does. But get settled in, patrol starts tomorrow. We'll get you acquainted with the place.

Oh, one more thing, if you think about deserting, well...

Demons won't be the scariest thing chasing you.

WELCOME TO PURGATORY

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Roleplay Summary

So as you might have guessed, from the brief intro and the concept of Purgatory and Demons and the Metallica, this is a Doom Inspired roleplay about people giving up their lives on earth to protect the planet from being invaded and conquered by demons. The entire roleplay will be taking place in the inter-dimensional plane that the defenders have called Purgatory, the bridge between Hell and Earth. Below you will find information about people, the world, the defenders, Purgatory, Hell, and of course, Demons.

Earth As is Known

The year is 2047. The planet is still recovering from the Demon War that ravaged the planet, leaving over 100 million military and civilians dead. Five years of absolute horror, it can still be seen in cities like Paris and Tokyo, which were some of the heaviest areas of fighting. They came through Purgatory in 2027 and wreaked havoc, no one except a select few scientists had any way of knowing what would happen and they were all killed in the first few moments. It was only through the actions of Dom Marineo after the first year of the war that would save humanity from extinction. Alone, Dom took destroyed the Demon's HQ in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle and killed Satan's Second In Command, Octavios, destroying the Demon army's supply source and morale, as well as taking down an eighth of the demon fighting force with the destruction of the base.

This action allowed Earth's forces to rally behind champion and drive back the Demons. Without a central commander, many of demon's minor officers panicked and made either rash and foolish decisions or retreated all together, allowing Earth's commanders capitalize on their panic and decimate the Demon forces. With Dom Marineo leading the charge as a morale booster, the Demon forces were driven back slowly, with many mounting casualties on both sides. The closer they got to defeat, the more ruthless and cruel the demons got, attacking the populace with extreme prejudice, many dying a slow and painful death. Eventually the demons retreated through purgatory and humanity was victorious. But much of the earth was in shambles, many major cities in complete ruins. Nevertheless, mankind celebrated their survival with overwhelming joy, hailing Dom Marineo as one of their primary heroes.

The Demon Order

Founded in 2032 by Dom Marineo, immediately after the end of The Demon War. Its sole purpose to defend humanity from Demons, wherever they may be found. Known to the common populace as The Defenders, The Demon order is a collection of individuals trained and modified to combat demons, much in the way Dom Marineo was. Though The Demon Order is classified as a military, it is much less formal and uniform than national armies. Though it is required that the Order's Symbol be worn somewhere on the body and it's members are trained and operate as units. The Demon Order takes responsibility of all demon technology as well as defending earth, having a technology branch within the order. Each member is injected with a serum that unlocks the maximum physical potential (Doom Guy from Doom 2016 being the example, able to rip people apart with bare hands and lift up to a thousand pounds and such.) Both Men and Women are able to join and although you don't have to have military or police experience, it is highly recommended and appreciated.

Technology

The world is fairly technologically advanced despite the war. Medicine and Treatment has advanced significantly, with diseases like Alzheimer's having treatment with tangible results. Weapons are still ballistic, but the recovering of demon technology allows weapons to have various other features, such as guns transforming into different types of weapons (RWBY style) and different types of exotic ammunition, such as acid and ice rounds. The Demon Order takes responsibility of all demon technology as well as defending earth, having a technology branch within the order. All members of The Demon Order are required to build and forge their own weapons and armor, adding their own personal flair to each. With the recovery of demon technology, armor has changed as well, all Order armor is made with the cleverly named Demonium, a material that is incredibly light and strong, 10x tougher than modern Kevlar and is on the keys to the Demon's success early in the war. It is also guarded closely by the order, as is all other demon materials and assets.

Robotics and Bionics are also advanced, many households and business being attended by robots. Victims of lost organs and limbs, especially since the Demon War, have a lot more options for full and complete recovery with synthetic organs and bionic limbs. The serum that the order injects it's soldiers with was made by a company called AgriTech and Dom Marineo was the first subject. As stated before, it unlocks the full human physical and mental potential. But it has a catch. 50% of those injected with it die on the spot, suffering a painful internal death as the blood in their veins practically ignites. The skin breaks out in third degree burns and blisters. The pure shock alone kills plenty. The chances of surviving such an ordeal is one in a million. More often than not, it's either a smooth transition or a painful death.

Purgatory

Purgatory is the inter-dimensional realm between Hell and Earth. It's an estimated 750 km long and 800 km wide, estimated due to the fact that it has never been fully explored before, as much of it is still in Demon control. A combination of Earth environments and Hellish ones, you can be walking through a forest and end up in an environment extremely similar to the plains of mars. So similar, that scientists of the technological branch have begun to suspect mars might be linked to Purgatory or hell.

Elite Commander Dom Marineo

Of Italian Origin, Dominic 'Dom' Marineo was an elite Italian Airborne Trooper captured on a training mission by AgriTech Agents to test the superhuman serum now used on every Demon Order solider. After being injected he was studied for weeks sedated, being the first successful subject. But he woke up and killed everyone in the facility he was kept in. When he learned of the demon invasion, he knew he was one of the only people with the capacity to stop them. And so his story went down in history. Dome defeated the demons and brought his captors to justice, confiscating the serum for a more noble use. Now 48 years old, The Order is bigger than ever, with 2500 people, technological and combat branches combined. All the best in their fields, devoting their lives to protecting the planet.

@Raxacoricofallapatorius The brothers will be Petty Officer Third Class.

No Turning Back [Sci-Fi Space RP]

Short but sweet intro post for me, I plan to do the thing Arrow does with flash backs and insert them occasionally in posts. Also, @Sep maybe we should get a map together so we know where other characters are to interact and stuff?

No Turning Back [Sci-Fi Space RP]

Master Chief Petty Officer Kazuhira Okasaki stood with his hands behind his back as the admiral initiated lift off. He was watching out of his office window, a decent space, holding all that was needed for him to run the Engineering division. Kaz walked over to the command station in the far corner of his office, across the room from his desk. Half a dozen monitors adorned the wall, all flashing information and readouts. 400 Engineers stood by, awaiting orders. His personal assistant, Petty Officer Third Class Monica Lowish sat at the station, ready to relay orders to all units.

"Initiate Monitoring Procedures, man assigned stations. The launch must be a smooth one." Kaz said, pacing the office. The woman nodded, going to work on the station, typing commands and speaking over the intercom. "Make sure the engines are operating at a safe capacity, as well as the reactor." He added, walking to his desk and sitting down. He had three monitors set up, all controlled with a keyboard of his own design that allowed him to manipulate every aspect he wanted. He pulled up the cryogenic vault on a security camera and scrolled through the views until he found lane 07-B. He saw Akio's pod and the boy was safely in it, comfortably asleep. He wouldn't be surprised if the child hated him when he awoke. When ever that was. "All units report smooth functions across all systems so far, Chief." Lowish stated, in a formal tone. "Thank you Monica, please alert me if any serious developments occur." Kaz replied, rising from his desk and exiting the room.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

"But why do we have to leave Mom!?" Akio demanded for the 12th time as they approached the ark. Kaz sighed, putting on his traditional black military cap, the rank of Master Chief adorned on it. "She's sick, Akio. They can't take anyone sick on the flight." His eyes were watery, he was an emotional boy. "Then why are we even going on this stupid flight? And why are you dressing like that?" Kaz didn't know how to make him understand, he was good with people, but no amount of charisma could make your child understand why he was abandoning the only family and home he had ever known. "Because we must, Akio, we have no choice. Now relax, we only have a few more hours before we get there." Akio huffed angrily and crossed his arms, looking out the window of the plane that was transporting them.

Kaz glanced at him sadly and leaned back, closing his eyes.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Kaz walked the halls of the ark, watching his men and others hurry about with their duties. All information was being relayed on his PDA and trough an earpiece. Monica would let him know if something needed his attention. Finally, he felt the Ark rock slightly as they lifted off into the sky. Hundreds of thousands of people on this ship, to take humanity to a new future. One that wouldn't drive them to extinction. Only those who would remain, on Mars and Earth. And Kaz knew.

There's no turning back now.

@Gunther Burpees are brutal, I'd rather do squats and push-ups alternatively than burpees.
