WITH GREAT POWER

We're on the verge of a breakthrough, here. We have power - great power. Yet, some of us decided that we would use that power for terror; evil. These people need to be stopped by any means. We grew up reading about superheroes... now the world actually needs them. If you're willing to try, I'll make the first step easy for you.

_______

This RP centers around your characters living in a time where superpowers are present. A technopath took it upon themselves to make a database of all the people who are considered threats to the safety of the populace; rogues gallery, essentially.

Your character has powers. Whether or not they've already developed them, or are just discovering them, is entirely up to you.

The setting is a large tri-state sized area, but all of the characters are a part of a group chat made by the technopath to reach everyone in that area. The point of the chat is simple - get like-minded individuals together to help make their world a better place.

After all, With Great Power.

  1. All BMGf rules, and Roleplaying Section, rules apply here.
  2. If you want to make an antagonistic character, you're free to.
  3. No godmodding or auto-hitting.
  4. No possessing any restricted powers.

  • Time travel
  • Omni-powers
  • Resurrection
  • Invulnerability
  • Instant kills
  • Grab-bag powers (having a wide array of unrelated powers, a la Superman)

Appearance

Power: Healing. Kalyani has the ability to restore biotic organisms to optimal health. While minor wounds can be salved, things like gashes and broken bones cannot be as easily mended. The greater the wound's severity, the more concentration is required.

Skills: Kalyani is good at understanding things she sees; she is very good at seeing patterns. She's reasonably good at cooking; not the best, not the worst.

Name: Lucas Albarn
Age:
19
Sex/Gender: Male

Appearance: Lucas stands at 5,11 and with a slim but fairly muscled build. He has chestnut colored hair that's chin length and somewhat messy. He has dark brown eyes and olive toned skin and softer features that would easily describe him as a "Pretty Boy" Lucas typically wears a loose fitting t shirt with a pair of jeans.

Power: Lucas has super strength. He's much stronger then his slim build would suggest, and being able to put olympic weight lifters to shame with his strength. Lucas typically fights barehanded because when using conventional weapons, they break. This gives him little in the way of range and if he can't physically touch his opponent, he can't really do much. Also, Lucas has to be very mindful of how much strength he exerts. If he's careless, he can do a lot of damage without intending to his allies or the environment around him.

Skills: Lucas is skilled at kung fu and boxing, and often weaves these fighting styles into his combat.

Call Sign: N/A
 
@Naoto Looks good, accepted.
 
Name: Charlize "Lee" Skarsgard
Age: 22
Sex/Gender: Female

Appearance:

fb5d4789b3983a4ee182b2b343b505a6--dyed-pixie-cut-short-dyed-hair.jpg

Power: Photokinesis - Lee can control and manipulate photons and other forms of light. She is able to create illusions out of thin air using this, and can also form constructs of light energy, her favorite being ones that resemble wings, thusly allowing her capabilities beyond normal human capacity. She can even form strong enough conduits with these light energy constructs that they have the ability to cleave through reinforced steel with the ease of a knife through butter - use of this has the power to make Lee incredibly dizzy, however, so she typically avoids using it excessively.

However, this is not without personal weakness. Darkness and nighttime in general do have a mute of some sorts on her powers, due to the lack of natural light to manipulate. She is also not immune to her own element; because her senses (vision especially) are extremely acute, certain light particles (given they're strong or bright enough) can make her extremely nauseous, or may even blind her permanently, if not damage her heightened vision. Lastly, she will be rendered powerless in absolute darkness, for obvious reasons.

Notably, her inability to absorb melanin is a side-effect of her power, which serves as the reason behind her naturallly white hair and lurid-toned skin.

Skills: Lee is quite an accomplished musician, and produces music with other freelancers in her off-time. She also is very talented in the art of baking pastries and sweets. Seriously, her snickerdoodles are to die for.

Name: Twix
Age: 3
Sex/Gender: Female

Appearance: She's a dachshund with dark fur. Cute.

beyonce.jpg

Power: Telepathy and Telekinesis. She can speak to humans using her mind and lift light objects. If she concentrates, she can even lift herself.

Skills: Barking, fetching balls, eating food like, really fast.

Call Sign: Twix

Other: Her owner's name is Winnie. She tags along with Twix for adventures despite having no powers of her own. Her SU is below.

Name: Winnie Clark
Age: 24
Sex/Gender: Female

Appearance: Standing at around 5'2", Winnie has dark, smooth skin, and brown eyes (normally accented by makeup). Her hair is dark brown, curly, and reaches to her shoulders. Her outfits tend to look effortless: tank tops, cutoff, crop tops... However, there is a fair share of planning that goes into them.

Power: None

Skills: While Winnie isn't too physically strong, she has a sharp mind. She is good at plotting, and laying out traps. She is also incredibly charismatic and outgoing; this helps her make friends, and alliances, more easily. She, however, is not afraid to call people out on their poor behavior. Winnie has a small pistol she keeps with her for safety; having no powers can be dangerous.

Call Sign: None
 
(just gonna... drop this here.... see how it goes)

Name: Bali Kapoor
Age: 28
Sex/Gender: Female

Appearance: Bali stands at roughly 5'6" and has dark skin, brown eyes, and dark hair. She generally covers up as much skin as possible to keep from essentially poisoning anyone that could come in physical contact with her. (The Kapoor family is immune after constant exposure.) She has prominent cheeks and thick brows.

Fighting style: She uses short knives and, when weaponless, utilizes the wrestling/grappling moves that her brothers (32 and 24 now) taught her when they roughhoused as children. By avoiding contact she's limited herself in this regard but will fight dirty if necessary.

Skills: She sweats & spits wasp venom and coats different weapons in that venom! Depending on the concentration, she go on a scale of "exacerbate pain of any wounds" to "potentially fatal, handle with extreme caution"; as she generates it, she has immunity to the venom.

Likes: salty food, reading, her Animal Crossing town (it's called Bat Cave and she has Rosie in her town and she's precious??), and cartoons.

Call Sign: Yellowjacket

Other: She's taken EMT classes and is technically first aid certified but cannot legally treat anyone because she could exacerbate any existing issues. She also carries WetWipes and sanitizer and is a little... intense about washing her hands before walking into a social situation.
 
Name: Ghost
Age: Uknown but people believe late 20s to early 30s
Sex/Gender: Male

Appearance: Ghost is tall with long brown hair. He always has long sleeves with a glove on his right hand, and his eyes are always covered as well. He carries different things on him such as a whip and well anything he might need.

Power: None that anyone knows of.

Skills: Hearing to an amazing degree. He also seems to have a sixth sense for things, and is quite sensitive to vibrations and whatnot. He's basically the ultimate blind person. Outside of his awesome other senses, he is good at using a whip. Even better than the whip is a metal rod made up of smaller ones. He uses this and the whip with just his left hand, in fact no one has ever seen him move his right hand. His ultimate skill though. Getting stuff done. Need an item. He can get it. Need someone taught a lesson. Go to him. People aren't sure if he's mafia or what, but he gets stuff done, and has many men working under him.

Call Sign: He doesn't have one but if you need something, there is a number circulating for him.
 
I'm reserving myself a character with teleportation abilities, just so everyone is aware. I'll get the actual SU up sometime within the next 24 hours, maybe.
 
Name: Raikus Makea
Age: 25
Sex/Gender: Bisexual Male
Appearance:
d34df85d611176124254ce50527db547.jpg

Power: Teleportation, of people and objects. He doesn't need to touch something to teleport it, but he has to know the location he is teleporting the objects or people to. He can only teleport up to a certain weight limit, although the quantity of the item doesn't matter. His power doesn't allow him to teleport items into a space that cannot fit them all (e.g teleporting an elephant into a car - the elephant would appear on top of or to the side of the car). He must be able to see the object or person that he is teleporting, though this can be done through binoculars (not cameras though).
Skills: Very little knife handling, a somewhat larger amount of hand to hand, but his focus is not combat. He knows first aid and triage, enough to get someone through until a more experienced doctor appears. He knows some tactics and strategy, and works best as a backline threat, getting his own people to safety while targeting the command structure and backline of the enemy.

Call Sign: Warp Star
 
@Ananfal Accepted, nice work.

That color is bleeding my eyes dry tho, lol.
 
Name: Valravn "N" Skarsgard
Age: 23
Sex/Gender: Male

Appearance:

e0b6f3fdaf9a544281dcd8323a8d9ff3--bill-skarsgard-hemlock-grove.jpg

Power: Sound manipulation. It mostly deals with manipulating the soundwaves in the vicinity around him, which allows him the skill to alter fundamental pitch, frequency, and volume. This allows him abilities such as absorbing sound, sound nullification, and manipulating dissonance and resonance. His skill of altering sound provides many benefits, such as masking his position, or by silencing his own targets while sniping. He finds that one of his most useful assets is actually his ability to create "bullets" of compacted sound, which tend to be just as lethal as (if not more than) the real deal. He doesn't need a firearm at hand to use them, either.

However, he can't use his powers in vacuums where soundwaves cease to exist - his sensitive hearing also happens to be very imperative to his skill, and it typically renders him unable to use his powers effectively if he loses his sense of hearing. This, obviously, can very easily turn the tables, and not in N's favor whatsoever. Though he does have some semblance of 'echolocation', if it gets jammed by another signal, it can interfere with his sensory perception, which he sometimes relies on more than his own eyes.

Skills: His marksmanship is nearly unparalleled. N is extremely talented with any form of firearm, and to a slightly lesser extent, hunting knives as well. Of course, this doesn't mean he hasn't missed a target before - even the greatest masters of their craft make mistakes. He also is very academically inclined, especially well-versed in physics and other science-y topics. However, he still can't cook worth shit.

Time for the Co-GM to make his entrance.


Name:
Rodrigo Diantiero
Age: 28
Gender: Male

Appearance: Rodrigo stands at 6'0 with a slim and toned figure and dark skin, he has long black hair that he keeps in dread. He's got dark brown eyes. He also wears a rosario given to him by his mother around his neck.

Power: Rodrigo is able to send out shockwaves similar to earthquakes from his body, he can alternate the strenght of the shockwaves. Unfortunately doing this causes him to get dissy upon continous use and depending on the strenght of the shockwave he can also be sent flying back or be affected by them.

Skills: Rodrigo used to be a mixed martial artist, especializing in punching and holds, while he retired from it a few yearas back after suffering from an injury he still keeps up with his training an exercise. Rodrigo's also does basketball and baseball. Lastly, he's got fairly good social skills and is surprisingly crafty and analytic, a side that he makes use of by gambling.

She doesn't really have much of a fashion sense and pretty much just wears anything she feels comfortable with but she particularly likes wearing jackets.

Power: Alexa's power is actually very simple. Her eyes give her the ability to spot other people with powers, usually highlighted by an aura of energy that she sees around them.

Skills: Alexa is a network engineer and has a heavy focus on technology, particularly when it comes to handling and repairing hardware.
