:( Aww, really gonna miss Ursula! She is such a neat charries. You sure you wanna pull, or perhaps you just need to work out your thoughts with someone?

If you just need some ideas, I'll be happy to help you out. Fleshing your Charlie's template out more with tidbits of info of things that only she and her closest friends will know about her, really helps in coming up with how she will think about situations.
 
I dunno, it just never seems to work out with me and superpower rps (most of them end up dying before I even get a chance to post this much). I did see a lot of potential in Ursala and I really liked her too (thanks by the way for the compliment!) but I am just having such trouble trying to come up with posts and keep interactions going between her and others.

I can try and stick it out if you guys really want?
 
@sinister-cephalopod I am really sorry but I am gonna have to pull out of this rp. I'm having a hard time coming up with posts or motivation, and it's better to leave before the big plot stuff gets underway so I don't leave you guys hanging.
alright, if thats what you think is best for you then :(

would you mind so terribly if I took the reins on Ursa until a good opportunity comes up for her to, well, get killed?

That's completely fine, and thanks for understanding

I'll miss you and your character for sure, but this does make things easier for me, since I was reluctant to have to kill anyone's characters if they didn't want to let them go

I'll miss you guys too, all of you are great rp-ers and it's a shame I couldn't stick this out. No hard feelings though, maybe I'll see some of you in other rps around here one day :)


Also Idk if I ever mentioned it, but Ursa's faceclaim is Tara Lynn (a plus-size model) just in case you need pics or anything.
 
I drew Ava and I thought I'd share

I'm gonna be posting a reply shortly but i just wanted to remind everyone that I need their characters' weaknesses

so far I have Diana's, Kiera's, and Charlotte's
 
OH! Weaknesses!!!

Okay...um...yea...

Okay, Holly is not too keen on being locked up in closed-in spaces. Not that the darkness is a factor here within her weakness, although she is afraid of being in the dark along for a long period of time, but it's being in a place that doesn't allow for her voice to be heard. If she screams and her voice reverts back to her, then she knows she's in a sound-proof location. Now, she'll be able to possibly use sound to break from such places, but to do such will definitely ruin her own hearing. Nit good there.

Um, vacuums are also something that pulls her abilities away from her, or holds them in place. There's no way she can use sound waves to bust through a vacuum... I really have to double check my physics, but just the idea of lose of breath within a vacuum area that's sucking in air and everything else...well, yea, there will be a definite shut down of her sonic abilities there. I'll still double check this though to be for sure.

But her biggest weakness is the tumor that's growing around the base of her spinal cord. It causes her more problems than anything else, and can make her into a serious mistake waiting to happen at the worse of times. So...yea, that's basically it for Holly.

Medusa hasn't been on since June 30th. Cassette has been gone since July 17th. And Heather had posted one June 26th that he won't be able to post until he regains access to his computer. He was posting via cell phone. That's about all I can find by visiting profiles and double checking their OOC postings.

Well, hopefully theyll come back soon umu but i have good news!

if anyone wants to make a second character feel free now that were moving forward

Ill add Kiera's character sheet up with any new characters since mucking around with the post format is a little bit hassling when you have to do it ten times umu
 
Good call! I'll probably throw up a guy this time...possible two; a brother/sister combo. Maybe... it all depends on what I can do RP wise. Times been a butt to me lately.
 
WIP: They're somewhat done, but considering changing a few things around.




Name: Taj Savar Magnuson
Age: 18
Sexuality:
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Tall and lanky - 6'1", 172 lbs of muscle; better suited for basketball, but basketball's not suited for him. Very unique grey-blue eyes and light, sun-kissed hair, given to him by his South African/British father. And he uses them well.

Grade: Senior
Tier:
Class:
Abilities:
Metal Manipulation (This includes natural minerals and unnatural metals within the body as well.)

Technopath: Taj understands machines at a subconscious level. To this end, he can comprehend the flow of mechanical energy in any device he comes across, disassemble, alter, or replicate it. To this end, once he has a clear goal for a machine in mind, and a wealth of resources to draw upon, he can create it with relative ease. However, when done in this manner, Taj, despite his sudo-genius level intellect, can rarely explain how the machine works, and must take it apart in order to replicate the results or infer the possible consequences of the machine's operation.

Personality:
Not trying to be a major egomonger, but Taj holds himself to be an intellect in his own right. Although, he's not considered a nerd, just one bad-ass brainiac with a serious fetish for sharp things and an ear for the classics & mixing fresh tracks. His aim is to work in music production, even though his IQ gives him VIP privileges at MIT, if he so chooses. Not a giver, but a taker; rarely gives of himself unless the recipient is one who has proven, without a doubt, that they're genuine and will remain so afterwards. He's spent far too much of his time, money, and effort over the years helping friends; only to be stabbed in the back in the end.

Weary, cautious, Taj chooses his friends carefully to avoid being hurt. Regardless, he is oddly personable for this secretive man of science; not entirely cold, aloof and efficiency demanding as some would be. One thing that might throw people completely off about Taj - for such a confident and obviously controlled individual, he's prone to slight panic attacks should his plans be led astray. Losing control of his machines, abilities, or even his environment in any way causes him to lose his patience. Terrible Two Temper Tantrum...that's about all that can be said about what happens next, but quick to damper.

Weapons: Really does not carry a weapon, but has two large bracelets around his wrist and ankles. He uses the metals to shape whatever device or tool he needs to do what he pleases. But, Taj does carry a set of throwing daggers in various shapes and sizes, and can sometimes be seen with a set of brass knuckles that always changes shape. Besides, if near any sort of electronic or machine, Taj has an instant weapon. Knows Capawala and WuShu Kungfu.

Other: Taj's inventions are extremely precious to him, and the threat of their destruction is one of the few things capable of pushing him to violence. He's the father wolf, and his masterpieces of steel and thunder are his children - and nothing will harm his children....





Name: Aujuli Silvian Magnuson "Juli"
Age: 16
Sexuality:
Gender: Female
Appearance: A tiny little creature, standing at 5'4" and around 132 lbs, hazel eyes, light brown hair.

Grade: Sophomore
Tier:
Class:
Abilities: Voodoo Skills (Fortune teller, soothsayer; she can interpret dreams, dreamwalker, read tarot, palms, bones, and sometimes successfully read a forthcoming future.)

Power 1: Soul/Spirit Keeper – This skill gives her the ability to glue herself to a person's soul or spirit. As she maintains their body in her presence, she projects their soul/spirit through the atmosphere, or through the webs of hers or their consciousness to a particular location known to them.

With a person's soul (Soul Travel) she is able to send, or project, a physical image of them (as if they were physically standing in that location). People can see and touch the person being projected, they can interact with them, but they cannot harm them due to Juli's protective connection. This protection causes any attack the soulful vision receives to not harm them, but to transfer to Juli instead, causing her minor injuries.

With a person's spirit (Spirit Travel) she is only able to send a perception of them. They are only a ghost in that location. They are not seen by others and cannot interact with them. It is as if they are only a touch of a spirit, a fly on the wall and nothing more.

The danger with these skills come if she is somehow disconnected from the person's true form. Aujuli has to remain in full contact with the physical person she is holding, and has to remain in total concentration. Injuries she sustain through the projected soul/spirit or physically with the person's body, causes her harm; but the real damage comes if someone removes her connection from the person she's holding. If this happens, not only does Aujuli suffer major mental and physical injuries – or even death; but the person she was holding will die without their soul because they are not connected to it anymore, or their spirit will wander around lost forever. Their body can be placed on ice until their soul can be returned. A spiritless body is capable of activity, just lacks control and understanding in so doing.

Power 2: Power Sensing - Ability to sense or recognize superhuman powers through all five senses. This allows her to understand the enemy before being seen.

Personality: Aujuli looks more like a 12 year old than a Sophomore in high school. Don't misread her though, Auju is a little firecracker when the need arises, and can hang with the best of them. Her brother, Taj, made sure of that. But where Taj is picky about friends, Aujuli rather have as many friends as possible; come what may! She doesn't fear the consequences of meeting the wrong people; still a bit oblivious to 'reality' since she lives in her own fantasy world with a stage just for her.

Weapons: Prefers not to carry a weapon, but knows Capawala, using her gymnastic and contortion skills to good use, and is comfortable using sabers or other short swords, but not proficient.

The Magnusons' History: TBA

but i have a question about the spirit keeper thing? could you perhaps go over it a little more for me, I'm having difficulty understanding the concept
 
No problem.

It's more like a spirit projection teleportation thingy. I've been developing the concept for a while, but it is rather difficult to really put into words for me. (don't ask why.)

Due to her summoning ability, she's also able to summon or pull a piece of a person's spirit and soul from them - with their permission, of course. The purpose is to project this portion through space, allowing a ghost-like or a solid clone-like form to travel to a certain location. The location is a thought or a recalled memory of where the person wishes to be, or if they concentrate on the person they wish to find, Aujuli can guide a person's spirit/soul to that person in this manner just by using the person's memory or thoughts.

The Spirit, ghost-like portion is just that - a ghost. It cannot be seen by anyone around the portion as it travels. It's like being invisible. The person has control of themselves at all times; Juli just keeps them connected to their body as they do so. There are times when she is capable of moving the person's body herself, but she doesn't do this for two reasons. One, because it's just not nice. And two, because it wears her out even more. But, if the Spirit is about to get hurt and doesn't realize it, Juli will go to the extreme and get them out of the way of such danger - to protect them both.

The person being projected can see everything around them - as well as Juli, and if both the person and Aujuli are strong enough, they can touch things, move light objects - just like a poltergeist. They'll even be able to carry a light or medium sized object under this ghost like cloak, if they're strong enough. Aujuli uses this for spying purposes, or to scare the crap out of someone to force them to leave a hiding place.

There's a lot she can do with this, but because of her age and lack of training, Aujuli can only sustain a Spirit for a long period of time and a certain distance only if they are not attempting to carry anything back or if she's not injured during the encounter. Injury can happen to Aujuli only if the Spirit accidentally gets hit or something. If they accidentally get hit by a car, then Aujuli will take the injuries rather than the person's body she's holding onto. If she takes too much injury and loses concentration on the spirit, then they can accidentally disconnect - and the spirit will be lost until it's able to return to its body. Aujuli will be weakened severely, for how long...it all depends on just how long and how far the spirit traveled before being injured. She is able to reclaim the spirit for a person, but again... that's another major skill she's not quite trained in and therefore, cannot use safely.

The Soul, clone-like portion looks just like the person. It's can be touched, can talk and be seen by others. It's just like the person is standing right there, but in reality they're just a perception of themselves. Almost like talking to a hologram of someone, but this hologram feels solid. In this state, the person can do what they normally do, but their real form is still with Aujuli at the original location - safe and sound. So, if the Soul portion is attacked, beaten, burned, cut, whatever; they won't receive the wounds because they're not really there. However, since Aujuli is retaining and holding the connection between the body and the Soul, she is the one that takes the blows.

This is a physical/mental skill - she must remain touching the person and concentrating on their thoughts and their piece in order to carry it safely to the wanted location. As mentioned before, concentration and touch are the keys for this skill. Without them, Aujuli can very well lose or kill a person's spirit/soul, and even herself. Therefore, she does not use this ability lightly. She's still in training, still very young at the ability, but can deal with Spirit projection better than Soul projection.

Hope this helps... I'm not sure which tier she should be on - due to age and just the skill's level itself. Figured I should give you the honors. But, if its too complicated, I can either take out the Soul projection or dumb it down a lot. It's not a very hard concept to play out. Once approved by a player, they play out what their charrie is doing while connected to Aujuli. All I do is show Aujuli's perception of what's happening, and warns the player of incoming conflicts or whatnots. If I see an opportunity for Juli to insert herself into a fight to protect the person she's connected to, I PM the person first before taking action.

Let me know!

Hey, hey, hey, guess who's here to steal your jobs!?
 
Hey you! What are you doing here, where you been?


Just lurking, I'm mostly on the RPG since ThinkerRock, but I occasionally come onto this site.

But, down to business, I am considering joining this RP.
