Don't think it would work in context of what you've laid out in the subplots, but it's a freaking awesome video.

Sorry, I have not. I still have a soul, after all.
Sort off.
Edit: Though, it might be breaking the horizon, sleeping with sirens or one of those other bands you crazy kids listen to these days that will take your soul.

It's Bring Me The Horizon xD
And it's a running joke among certain groups of friends that I never had a soul anyway because I'm a redhead, so yeah.

Personally, I think souls are overrated.
Also, with this new avatar and signature it makes me think that everything I say is said in Jeff Daniels voice. It's the Morgan Freeman effect.

- I like most. However, I have found I am most comfortable with Fantasy, Sci-fi, Fandom, and Modern.
It's all good, GM. We all have lives after all. =D
Still, I am also excited to see what or who the next hero is.

Just reposting this to let everyone see what's happening so far. Going to see about getting some posts up later both for Ewan and doing some plot advancing.
Exit light, enter Knight.

How do you do that tab thing with the character sheets? Do I need to copy and paste the character sheet thing with all the random numbers and letters?

Hello friends, I've been furiously stalking interested in this thread for quite a while now, but I've been waiting until I came up with a good idea.
That good idea finally came.
What I ask is if this thread is still opens to plebs like me.

Yay
I'll have something up in a few days if real life doesn't get in the way. I work pretty fast if I get started.
But, I have to ask if I absolutely have to use a picture for my sheet. From my start as a writer, I do much better writing up an appearance section than shifting through a bunch of ugly mugs to find a picture for my character.

I do prefer at least a vague visual reference but I will accept a complete written description.

| NAME: |
Marcus Graziure
| ALIAS(ES): |
Mark, Graz, Graze, "The Gambler"
| PLACE OF BIRTH: |
Baltimore, Maryland
| SPECIES: |
Hyperhuman
| D.O.B.: |
December 30
| AGE: |
28
| SEX: |
Male
| SEXUALITY: |
Straight
| APPEARANCE: |
Marcus is the very definition of suave. Standing at six foot three with short, brown hair that's usually slicked back with some form of expensive hair gel, he is as handsome as a human being can naturally be. His brown hair is always slicked back and his green eyes are always just as visible as his perfect smile. He has perfect posture, a perfect jawline, a perfect brow, perfectly controlled facial hair, and even perfect fingernails. The man is too damn perfect.
| CLASSIFICATION: |
FORTUNA
-
| ABILITIES: |
Luck is split into two categories. Natural Luck, and Artificial Luck. Natural Luck is how lucky someone is from birth. For the average person, this number can vary wildly. They can be unlucky enough to get killed by a stray bullet while walking to work, one day, or can have enough natural luck to win jackpot on the slots every single spin. For Hypes, Natural luck is somewhat higher. They are Hypes, after all. The Magi are even luckier. Celestials can vary as much as humans can.
Artificial Luck is luck gained through underhanded methods, such as rigging a deck or using a loaded die, though any advantage at all can be counted as artificial luck. Humans have a hard time creating Artificial Luck. The risk of being detected while cheating is high, and the human body can only get so strong or so quick. Non-humans ability to create Artificial Luck varies from person to person. It all depends on individual ability, making it rather hard to gauge without some Artificial Luck of your own.
Marcus has the uncanny ability to manipulate and detect both Artificial and Natural Luck. If he desires, he can make a man lucky enough to pull in all the chips in a poker game, mentally rig a deck in his favor without even touching it, and load a die he's never seen before without changing the weight at all. He is also able to detect someones strength and see if their lying by detecting their Artificial Luck.
| SKILLS: |
Marcus made his fortune on cards and dice, building his success purely on chance. He is also a master of the art of Sleight of Hand, which includes pick pocketing, forced shuffles, and street magic. He has a natural charisma about him and can charm the pants off of just about anyone, something he is eternally grateful for. His skill with a sword is something to behold. He is a master of many different styles of swordsmanship from many different cultures.
| LIMITATIONS: |
Though he can manipulate Artificial Luck, Marcus cannot override it. Baseline Artificial Luck will remain the same no matter what and, if this luck is high enough, can nullify any manipulation Marcus may attempt. He also cannot manipulate any Artificial Luck that is higher than his own, which cannot change, as well. He can only influence his own Natural Luck, though his Artificial Luck is so high that it hardly matters.
| WEAKNESSES: |
Without a blade, Marcus is a pitiful fighter. He is unable to throw a good punch for the life of him and just doesn't have the mindset for a hand to hand fight. His over reliance on luck will often lead him without a backup plan, making for more than a few hairy situations. Any form of explosive is a bad mix, with him. Guns also don't please him too greatly. He has a truly crippling fear of blunt weaponry.
| APPLICATIONS: |
The most obvious use of this power is through Gambling, a concept not lost on Marcus. It can also be used in combat to affect an opponents aim. If raising his own luck while tapping into some of his natural charisma, he can be a VERY convincing man.
-
| WEAPONS: |
Marcus' cane hides a stainless steel sword about four feet long. The blade is thin, but reinforced with titanium to make it incredibly strong. Despite his natural aversion to guns, he carries a small derringer in his suit pocket in case of emergencies.
| TOOLS: |
Marcus has a full lockpicking kit at his disposal, as well as a Swiss Army Knife that he keeps in his back pocket. Depending on what he's going out to do, he has a tenancy to buy and dispose of anything he needs as he needs them.
| ATTIRE: |
His suit varies from day to day, but he is almost never seen without one. His favorite one is an all white silk number with a blue dress shirt and a light green tie, usually worn with brown leather dress shoes. He also is always seen with an ebony cane topped with a highly decorative silver knob.
-
| BACKSTORY: |
Marcus was born and raised on two things. Forced religion, and pure luck. By all means, he should have choked to death on his own umbilical cord, but he made it out. He should have been crushed by the constant bullying at school, but he was fine. He should have been killed when he crashed his mothers car during his first driving lesson, but he made it out okay. Nobody died, the car was fixed, and he didn't even get in trouble. But all of that was a little due to some foul play, on his part.
That car crash was caused by what Mark describes as an "awakening" of sorts. Vision goes white, arms go numb, legs won't move. A horrible combination for driving, if your applying the gas. After a while, his parents started to believe him. Unfortunately, there was something wrong, with that. Marcus' parents hated Hypes. Three years into his homelessness stint, Marcus was finally able to find his passion. He cleaned out the first casino he ever gambled in and was banned from three more before he was able to amass a fortune.
At 20, Marcus made a split second decision. He spent five years traveling the world and mastering swordsmanship. While this might not seem like something someone just suddenly decides, Marcus was in that point of his life that never really settled well. Nothing to do, nothing to see, nothing at all. So Marcus decided to do something. When he was done, he had mastered several styles of swordsmanship, including iaido and Shinkendo. He still wanders the world today, getting banned from casinos and improving his skills as much as he can.

Just a few things about me OOC that someone around here might get a kick, out of.
1.) I was born three days before Abraham Lincoln, yet I'm predicted to die three days after.
2.) I once beat a man up for insulting my favorite flavor of Ice Cream
3.) I identify myself as Atheist, yet celebrate all the christian holidays
4.) I was once stabbed in inner-city Baltimore by a crackhead who didn't know who I was. He is now my best friend.
