Sign Ups With Great Power

With Great Power​

Co-run by the beautiful and talented @Crobatman, the creator of Let's Be Heroes.​

Make fun of the name and you're banned. (jk)

The concept of superpowers have always excited the populace. From comic books to video games, everyone knows the iconic image of Superman's logo or Spiderman's emblem. Many even entertain the idea of powers existing.

Then again, not many know that those with these powers expected those powers to be real. Enter the age of superpowered individuals. The masquerade never happened; the secret is out and people are dealing with the truth of people with unforeseen, unexplained abilities being very much alive.

Many are intrigued, most are frightened.

In a world that's not exactly ready for the truth, one can find acceptance of their abilities in a hangout known primarily by the supernatural populace. Peace and tranquility are all they wish for.

____________________________________________​

Remember the fun that was Let's Be Heroes. Well, welcome to something kind of like that!

You play a person with superpowers, invited to join a club of similarly powered individuals for the purpose of mingling with one another. This could mean being there to hang out or having a job, which ever is your preference.

The setting at large is a big city reminiscent of Tokyo, New Jersey, and Seattle.

Spoiler

Name: Adisa Chemutai
Sex: Male
Age: 21

Appearance
Low cut hair with with a trimmed, always neat beard. Chocolate skin with light brown eyes. Stands at 6'0" in height. Typically dresses neatly, always choosing comfort and style over convenience in many situations. "Sunday best" for him is just an everyday way of life.

Personality
Laid-back, protean toward most situations. His abilities were like a match made in Heaven for him - not that he's really all that religious. No, a way to describe him would be spiritual; someone who enjoys living life and being the best he can. Who needs all that seriousness and downer attitude when you've got a good eighty years to live, right?

Abilities:
Aerokinesis. Adisa has the power to use the wind to his advantage, controlling its flow and force for a variety of effects. While this power is incredibly versatile, it also requires that there be wind within the area to utilize. Using this power has been known to be taxing on him, despite his relatively natural control over it.

Talents:
Can play basketball pretty well. Has a lot of experience cooking, as he worked in his family's restaurant for most of his life.

Other: Works as a cook for the hangout. Good money.

[Flaze]

Name: Natasha Spiel
Gender: Female
Age: 21

Appearance: Natasha has long black hair that goes down her back with blue eyes. She stands at 5'8 and has fair skin with light freckles on her face. Natasha doesn't have a specific style of clothing, usually choosing whatever she thinks is cool, unfortunately she ends up losing interest in some of the clothes she buys, causing her to have a lot of things she rarely wears, her fashion sense is also in question.

Personality: Natasha is very down to earth and serious but she can also be kind of scatter brained, she usually tries to act cool around others but flusters quickly and freaks out once things don't go as planned. The demeanor she wants to present to others also clashes with her childish sense of humor and her sarcastic streak, though sometimes she ends up being on the other end of the joke if she isn't careful. Aside from that she's a very responsible person that usually tries to have a good grasp of her life and cares about everyone around her, even if she insists on not showing it sometimes.

Abilities: Telekinesis. This allows Natasha to move objects at will, she can also push and pull the area around her, not exactly making it air control but giving he rsomething akin to it, even the ability to levitate herself...though it makes her extremely dizzy when she tries to do it.

Talents: While she tries to act cool around others she's a very good listener and is able to pick up things rather quickly once she puts her mind to it. She's also an adept violinist and dancer as well as having a passing interest in chemistry and biology, plus sometimes, if you get drunk enough, she'll even sing karaoke.

Other: Works as the bartender for the hangout's bar. Sometimes acts like it's stressful but really loves it. Is afraid of dogs and snakes and hates people that wear socks and sandals.

 

[Taengoo]

Name: Alloisa "Allo" Chemutai
Sex: Female
Age: 21

Appearance: Allo, much like her twin brother, is tall and lithe in her build, standing at 5'8" in height with dark skin, though not quite as dark as his. Her eyes are a dark sterling shade, almost black in hue. Her hair stops right at her middle back, dyed a faded-maroon hue. Like Adisa, she dresses rather nice, though to a lesser extent. Her normal outfit is a slate-and-crimson jacket and black jeans, paired with boots of the same color. Despite her ability, her body is rather lean and seemingly built for agility, rather than brawns.

Personality: She's noticeably both a studious person, and someone who is very invested in athletics, much like her twin brother. Allo does tend to be a bit on the tomboyish side, shown in her obvious hatred for dresses and most things considered "girly". She is not as carefree as Adisa, however, and is known to be a very spunky and sassy individual. Admittedly, she's stubborn as a bull, and often needs her brother to tell her when enough is enough. In addition to this, she almost always refuses help even when she knows she's wrong, because she feels it makes her weak.

Abilities: Allo's main ability is super strength. She's able to shatter concrete with a single kick, and can crush nearly any material with her bare hands if she so desires to. Naturally, she is able to bench press more than anyone, and because of her...rather reckless offense methods, her bones have become almost impossible to break. However, she doesn't have the easiest time controlling her strength, and often overestimates the durability of many things because of this (including a person's ribs). She admittedly wears out quickly if she uses her titan-level strength for too long.

Talents: She is surprisingly very fast, and a top athlete even without her powers. Like Adisa, she has developed superior cooking skills due to working in the family restaurant constantly. An ace in soccer and various sports. Has a side-hobby of beating up school bullies that insult anyone on or related to the soccer team.

Other: Captain of the soccer team, and the (slightly younger) twin to Adisa.

Also, don't ever call her by her full name under any circumstances. You will regret it.

 

[Hector]

Name: Jessie McCree
Sex: Female
Age: 22

Appearance:

Spoiler

Personality:

Jessie is a quick talker who's full of folksy wisdom. She has a giant heart and is particularly an animal lover, especially for her horse Diablo, a jet black mustang. While she enjoys the company of others and can get along with them, she has a strong independent streak and is extremely self-reliant. She possesses a tireless work ethic and is as tough as they come.

Abilities: Heightened reflexes. Fast enough to catch a bullet out of the air with her fingers.

Talents: Jessie is a skilled outdoors-woman, proficient in wilderness survival, hunting, and fishing. She's also an expert on horseback.

Other: Jeypls

[Kharixi]

Name: Karina Delphi
Sex: Female
Age: 15

Appearance: Karina has blonde hair, in two long ponytails, which reach halfway down her back. She has yellow eyes. She wears a dark green jumpsuit with no sleeves or leggings, and has dark blue wristbands and legbands. She stands in at 6'07".

Abilities: Can increase and decrease in size (minimum and maximum height unknown). At her base height she is very smart, but it changes with size, except she's less smart the bigger she is. Speed is also affected in this way.

Personality: Usually fairly quiet and calm, Karina's temper tends to get shorter as she grows.

Talents: Capable of lifting weights of 150 pounds, and she can solve some really hard scientific puzzles.

Other: She enjoys eating, and gaming. Usually others don't like playing certain games with her because of her intelligence.

(Switched the abilities and personality for more clarity, hopefully it's not a huge deal.)

 

[Yun]

That's good @MatrixChap but we already sorta have someone with super strength. I'd prefer not to have overlapping powers this early on, you know?

Change it up and she's accepted.

 

[Isaac Gates]

Could I have a reserve please?

 

[Yun]

@Lavernius Tucker yep, reserved!

 

[Kharixi]

Alright, I removed it since she should be good enough without it.

 

[PaulTheProtist]

Name: Professor Xavier Van Knoxvillain
Sex: Male
Age: 62

Appearance: His hair is dark grey. He generally is dressed in formal attire. He also has a blue, yellow, and light grey machine suit.

Personality: Victor was once the most famous supervillain in the world and the former head of KnoxCorp, the world's largest technology corporation. However, after having lost too many times to the heroes (and his company being sued for unlawful business practices), he decided to retire from villainy. However, he occasionally has thoughts of reliving his old days...

He has a very loud voice. He tends to act impulsively rather than making plans, which leads to his downfalls. He's willing to work with his enemies to achieve a common goal, such as when one of his doombots escapes. He can be very paranoid when in a fight.

Abilities: He has the power to harness the electricity from his nervous system. The extra energy generated by this keeps him in a decent physical state at age 62. However, this has the side effect of making him hypersensitive to touch.

Talents: He's a technological genius, having created over 200 different gadgets. He's fluent in German as a result of having his company located in East Germany for 20 years, before the state became defunct. Plays the guitar.

Other: A fan of metal music. He drinks a lot of tea. As of this date, he has been in 105 fights with superheroes, and has only won seven of them. Has a PHD in engineering.
