OPEN SIGNUPS Collateral ( A Super Hero RP with Consequences) OOCAfter the destruction of multiple cities within multiple different regions of the world( Noteable examples include New York, London, Beijing,Cairo, Rio De Janeiro and Sydney along with a research lab on the frozen continent), the world has had enough. One thing was true. There was too MUCH property damage from these heroes fights and after much discussion, a new law was put into place. Called by the masses as Collateral, it was a law that required all beings with powers, regardless of their wealth, power or status to be held accountable for any damages, may they be property, physical or emotional.

That was twenty years ago. It's 2018 now and still very much a law of all lands. For this RP, you may play as a character with powers ( may they originate from supernatural, science or otherwise) or a villain and a civilian ( This being has no powers, they are essentially human). ( You must have at least one hero/ villain and one civilian as these beings will be important). Though focusing on the superhero aspect, if your character finishes with any damages to any person, place or object, well, it will be settled with court.

After all, there's always Collateral to pay.

Listed below is the two types of character sheets. One for your hero and one for your civilian.

Species: Metahuman / Genetic Experiment

Powers / Weaknesses:

Notes gathered by one 'Doctor Nikolaos Tsiantis'

  • Energy Absorption: Anastasia is capable of absorbing energy that surrounds her or comes in contact with her. Such types of energy include but are not limited to:
    • Explanation: Anastasia can physically redirect kinetic energy that comes into contact with her being.
      Example: If Anastasia takes a physical hit from someone / something she can in turn flip it around and push it back at a higher output that combines the force of the hit received and what she can in turn exert.
    • Weakness: Anastasia still has to physically take the hit before she can reverse it. What she can exert is limited to what her body, in the moment, is capable of putting out.
    • Breakdown:
      • Strength Modifier: The force of the hit taken (non-fatal, non-puncturing) multiplied by her current strength capabilities.
      • Speed Modifier: N/A
      • Durability Modifier: N/A
      • Regeneration Modifier: N/A
      • Extra: N/A
    [*][*][*][*]
    • Explanation: The first and most basic level of energy that Anastasia can absorb through her system. Depending on the level of exposure it can physically alter her body as it 'charges' her system. These alterations include slight growth in mass and height (she cannot exceed the height of seven feet), her irises also become littered with streaks of silver and blue that flow just as sporadically as the electrical currents that run through her system. Along with this charge comes an increase in physical capabilities (strength, speed, durability) due to the 'energy' running through her system plus the capability of flight through static / electric discharge. Currents will occasionally visibly run across her body.
    • Weakness: The energy remains in her system as she cannot expel electrical energy (unless flying). The main means of having the electricity escape her system is by physically using the excess energy stored in her body or being overloaded to the point where she releases a shock-wave that forces the energy out of her system. It's a draining process that requires all the energy in her body which leaves her weak and tired for a day or so.
    • Breakdown:
      • Strength Modifier: Max push / lifting strength observed at full charge is one-hundred and forty-two tons. Average push / lifting strength observed at full charge is thirty-eight to forty-four tons.
      • Speed Modifier: Maximum foot-speed observed at full charge is one-hundred and twenty-two kilometers per hour. Maximum flight speed observed at full charge is four-hundred and two kilometers per hour.
      • Durability Modifier: Non-electrical energy based attacks have no effect at max charge. Electricity based attacks add to her charge level and can trigger her to overload. Taking direct hits could potentially release electricity back towards the assailant as the energy occasionally runs across the surface of her skin. Stabbing attacks will cause electricity to run across the puncturing weapon, should it be made of a conducting material.
      • Regeneration Modifier: All regenerative capabilities are increased in speed and one of the causes of electricity to crackle across her flesh.
      • Extra: Flight via electrical and static discharge.
        Note: Cannot carry anyone with her in flight due to the energy discharge.
    [*][*][*][*]
    • Explanation: The second level of energy that Anastasia can absorb through her body, which has to be at a high enough level that would physically affect a human also physically alters her. Just like electricity, radioactive / nuclear energy includes a large growth in mass and height (she cannot exceed the height of twelve feet), her eyes also change colour to match the typically deadly poison that flows through her veins, her irises turn into an almost glowing green colour. It gives her a massive increase in physical capabilities mainly in brute strength and durability, due to what is running through her system.
    • Weakness: Just like electrical energy the deadly radioactive / nuclear energy remains in her system as she cannot expel it. The only means of having it leave her system is by physically using the excess energy stored in her body or being overexposed to the point where she releases an explosion that forces the energy out of her system. It's a process that leaves her sick an weak for up to a weeks worth of time.
    • Breakdown:
      • Strength Modifier: Not Calculated.
      • Speed Modifier: Due to the massive change in size Ana is not as fast or agile as her normal human size.
      • Durability Modifier: Her skin is impenetrable, larger caliber weapons can cause her to stagger or stumble but cannot break the skin.
      • Regeneration Modifier: Not calculated.
      • Extra: Her mind falls into a much more primal state. Survival becoming her strongest instinct.
        Note: Has shown the ability to discern friend from foe although it is not always predominant and such the instinct to survive or a single bad memory can overpower the knowledge of someone being a friend.
    [*][*][*][*]
    • Explanation: The most effective, constant and strongest type of energy that Anastasia can absorb into her system is solar energy. Just like all the other types of energy depending on the level of exposure it can be a major boon to her that can maximize all her physical capabilities, including giving her the ability of flight. Although she requires a longer exposure time to reach her full potential under the sun; it is also the only type of energy that does not affect her height and muscle mass but can be physically seen in the colour of her eyes. Normally a light brown in colour her irises become a more amber / honey colour to show that her body is at full power.
    • Weakness: As all the other types of energy she can absorb into her system the solar energy remains flowing through her body, this is the only type of energy she can willingly expel in the form of an extreme blast of burning energy. It is not a blast that can be controlled, a large explosion follows and typically leaves Ana completely unconscious for up to three days.
    • Breakdown:
      • Strength Modifier: Not Calculated
      • Speed Modifier: Not Calculated
      • Durability Modifier: Not Calculated
      • Regeneration Modifier: Not Calculated
      • Extra: Capable of flight through unstudied means, potentially gravity negation or some form of gravitational reversal.
    [*][*][*][*]
  • Mixing different types of energy that Ana can absorb is a painful process. Although she can still function while having different types of energy flowing through her system, every action and every movement is strained and painful. Her body typically can't make heads or tails of what is a priority and thus, more often than not leads to Anastasia being an uncontrollable, hulking mess of pained anger and destruction should she mix any of the energies that can flow and remain in her system, together.

  • She also has enhanced base level physical capabilities due to her past, those include:
    • Acute sense of hearing, capable of catching frequencies average humans can not.
    • She can also hear sounds coming from a greater distance than the average human.
      Note: Although she can register more audio frequencies, some of the higher end sounds can be painful and the lower ends can be nauseating.
    • Her eyes are able to process sharper, cleaner images and details.
    • She can see at further distances.
    • Anastasia's pupils can dilate further than the average human for better view in lower-lighting and darker settings without the aid of night-vision equipment.
      Note: Sudden bursts of bright light in darkness can momentarily blind her and disorient her.
    [*][*][*][*]
    • Max weight ever pushed / lifted at base level was eighty-six tons.
      Note: Only under extreme duress and pressure is this result achievable. Such as an average human lifting a car under the release of epinephrine into their system [adrenaline spike].
    • Average, comfortable weight ever pushed / lifted at base level is eighteen to twenty-eight tons.
      Note¹: Extreme overexposure to chemicals used in experimental process led to surprisingly better results than anticipated when concerning physical strength
      Note²: Pushing her strength to it's max capabilities is strenuous and can lead to muscular damage that would require time to repair.
      For Further Study: Should Anastasia continue to push her body with steady muscle building exercises and diet, could she possibly increase her average and maximum base level strength output? Make note to test.
    [*][*][*][*]
    • Average, base human level physical hits seem to go by unregistered or regarded simply as a nuisance.
    • Slashes, cuts, scrapes and average burns, seem to go by unregistered.
    • Puncturing attacks by bladed weapons register in the lower end of her pain threshold.
    • Bullets register in the average and low-high's of her pain threshold, based on caliber size and speed.
    • Her skin can be punctured, cut, gouged and slashed normally. There is no extra force required.
    • Bones are much harder to break with average to peak human strength.
      Note: Average / low end pain receptors may have been damaged in the experimental process.
    [*][*][*][*]
    • Above peak human condition, capable of reaching a foot-speed of eighty-four kilometers per hour at peak speed.
      Note: At max speed Anastasia begins to feel the effects and can grow tired after running at max speed for too long.
    [*][*][*][*]
    • Due to a much higher metabolism and much faster working body, Anastasia's healing capabilities are above average. Small wounds could take up to minutes while more severe damage can take hours to days depending on severity.
      Note: Research on limb growth based on reptilian DNA strands was never completed, thus regrowing limbs is not something she is capable of.
    [*][*][*][*]
    Note: Continue observations for potential latent abilities that may have not surfaced in initial testing these abilities might require extreme situations that can not be created within the labs.

Civilian Name: Meghan O'Neill

Nickname: Meg

Age: 27

Appearance:
  • Height - 5' 5"
  • Weight - 130 lbs
  • Gunshot scar on her left shoulder.

Collateral cases involved before start of RP: Four cases of structure damage and two cases in vehicle damage.

Occupation: Bar owner / Cook

Personality: Calm | Soft Spoken | Kind | Level-headed | Analytic | Timid | Loyal

Abilities / skills:
  • Excellent at diffusing situations.
  • Great listener.
  • Always does her best to be helpful.
  • Good at finding solutions to problems.
  • Musician.
  • Surprisingly good cook.

History: Born and raised in New York, Meghan lost her parents at a young age. As far as she knew they had died in an 'accident'. The details had never been fully given to her until she fought for the right to know what happened. Living in the outskirts of the bustling city the young woman had a simple life in the care of a great aunt. Her passion had always been music and she had always put her all into it. On the sidelines she dabbled with an array of other things, the only hobby that still held her interest as she grew older, other than her deep love for music had been cooking.

Her great aunt, who was from her mother's side passed around the time that Meghan turned eighteen. To her surprise Meg was given everything that her aunt had and thus her adult life began. Always having been a rather quiet person, except when she was doing her art, Meg began to think about her future and how to carry on through life without much guidance.

Her first matter at hand was to find out the truth behind her parents. She dug and pestered whoever she could until she was finally given an answer. With metahumans and superhumans becoming more of a regular thing in society Meghan eventually found out the truth that didn't need to be sealed in Top Secret files anymore.

There had been a fight between two supers and her parents had unfortunately been caught in the crossfire. Their car was crushed under a truck, their deaths instant. Knowing the truth hadn't been as big of a relief as she had thought. If anything it had instilled fear and worry into her as these people had become normal within society, the thought that anyone could turn around and throw a car at her was terrifying. This had led Meg to begin hating on the meta's. And soon she had joined others in fighting against anything intended to help these freaks of nature live more normal lives.

Of course all that was, just like any other ironic backstory, changed when her life was in danger and her only hope had been the drunk homeless woman who defied every natural law of the world and saved her life. Unfortunately Meghan had not come out of the event unscathed, a burning reminder embedded into her shoulder from that fateful night.

Her mentality was quickly changed but her fear remained all the same. She decided to adjust some aspects of her life and turn to something that was more calm and steady. No more marches and rallies, no more online hate, she had to get passed what she honestly couldn't change and she did just so as Meghan chose to open a quaint little coffeehouse by day that operated as a bar and small venue at night. Her passion for music was satiated as she often played in her own venue for the sake of playing and she now had someone by her side that she literally owed her life to. What she had offered the metahuman was the least she could and thankfully it had a positive outcome.

Family: All deceased.

Extra: Heterosexual as far as she knows.

@LuckycoolHawk9 I think I'm satisfied with those character sheets. Should I need to change anything let me know I would love to be a part of this and should my charries pass your check over I'm excited to get to the IC :)
 
@Huntress Accepted and really good. Post in the IC whenever you get the chance. Once you and @Astroblaze post, I'll do an update. ( Unless someone else asks to join between the time)
 
Hope that little intro was okay. I assumed that Ana and Meg wouldn't be at the scene since they're not really involved with a lot of meta stuff...yet. :P

Yeah, it's cool. I might just have it so the bar isn't too far from the crime scene and might have someone go check it out. @Huntress
 
For sure, no problem. I assumed that if Ana could hear the sirens still, that the crime scene wouldn't be too far. I honestly don't have a problem waiting for interaction so, all good on my end :)

Cool. Also, @Astroblaze do you have any recommendations to get Spectre down from the roof?

I'm developing a post idea -- I'm not sure if he would want to show himself just yet, but he might come down to address the reporter. If you want him to show himself, though, I can make it happen. It would also help if he had something to contribute more than just repeating his fellow heroes, but I have no idea what he saw.

by the way, @LuckycoolHawk9 I edited John's profile -- mostly formatting changes but added a couple minor details as well. Reformatted the other three in the same way

Besides what was is obvious, I imagine from his vantage point, he would also be able to see the suspicious garbage bag that nobody has looked at.

Vanessa already looked at that if I recall correctly. I think I have a sufficient outline now tho -- just have to write

Cool. I await your post. ( As of right now, nobody has investigated the other body)
 
Hello!

Pardon me for barging in mid-story but I've seen that this thread is still Open for Sign-Ups.
I'd love to participate but I have a question.

Is it required to be strictly 1 Hero/Villain and 1 Civilian? Or it can be of any combination as long there is two?
Thank you for your time :v
 
@vantas Ideally it should be one hero/villain and one civilian. However I will allow you to have any combination as long as they have civilian identities.
