POWER OF ELEMENTS
OOC/Discussion Thread GM: Spacemanfrommars
First off, I'm going to start with explaining what this is. This isn't going to be a sequel, nor a prequel; it's a revitalization, a remake of the original. This remake is going to have a bit more tweaks, some polishing. This roleplay did not initially come from me; the original creator was a person known as SupaZoeyFan, so credit to the original work goes to her. The city of Prodagena, a bustling metropolitan city famous for its cleanliness, and it's strict rule system. People within the city call it a utopia, a great city full of happiness and cheer while some others call it a dystopia, the citizens happiness clouding a dark secret. A little rumour has started emerging within Prodagena, mumblings of kids developing with the power to control the elements, but, the mass media quickly worked on disregarding those rumours to be nothing but that, rumours. While in the background an organization is bent on learning all they can learn about these kids, finding them and capturing them. The city is situated on the bay, surrounded by lots of nature & wildlife. Prodagena is a city that is knwon for being a technological marvel; But, it still doesn't have flying cars or teleportation devices. Prodagena houses the latest in robotic technology and Holographic Interfaces, but these are reserved for things like hotels and businesses which can aquire these expensive devices. You are one of these kids, or you are an adult whose powers had developed a lot earlier and had been hiding them in secret. There are five elements; Fire, Lightning, Water, Earth and Air. Most of these elements contain their specializations; Air is the only element that contains no specialty, simply due to the fact air is extremely versatile in what it can do. Now, Synergy is one of the most important things in this RP, as it mainly results in what you can do with your power. Synergy allows two people to act in unison to create a new element such as fire and water working together to make steam or air and lightning working together to make a lightning storm or Water and Earth together to make mud; there's a lot of possibilities with this. Synergy with more than two people requires those people to have a closer bond with one another or no specialty between them. The reason you have these powers is something that you can't explain, nor can anyone. Augments are little trinkets, weapons or other that people can use to channel their powers through, this doesn't mean that everyone needs to have an augment, it's just that augments help with control. Certain Elements have specializations; Earth has the specialty of Metal and Wood, Once someone specializes into one of these categories, the other one becomes locked off, and their primary ability becomes that. Fire's specialty is heat, which may not seem like a massive deal but it can prove to be very helpful. Water can specialise into Ice. Lightning can specialise into thunder, a more concussive force than their lightning abilities. Concerning Villain Characters; You can have villain characters, those who work under the shady corporation who help to capture these people with powers with their powers. Rules:1) The forum rules all apply and should be followed completely.
2) You must have an accepted character application before you can begin roleplaying. 3) Do not plagiarize in character creation, characters you have created in previous PoE can be remade here.
4) Stick to the lore and the theme of the world, so no crazy half water people.
5) You cannot control or harm other PCs without the owner's permission.
6) Big world/story changes must first be discussed with the GM before being deployed.
7) If I ever put my foot down on an argument, that is the end of the discussion.
8) If you are going to be inactive for a week or longer, you must notify us so we can make sure your character isn't left behind, or we end up having to wait too long. If you do not, your character will become an NPC until you return.
9) Please leave the responsibilities of a GM to the GM.
11) Be nice to your fellow roleplayers, don't go about namecalling unless it's playful
12) No Mary Sue's or Gary Sue's, No one is perfect after all.
13) Please, Have Fun!

Oh boy here it comes!
NAME: Dante Anderson GENDER: Male AGE: 18 HOBBIES: - Reading - The arts (Dante never quite experienced this subject matter as a child, so simply observing them in the present is a wonder to him) - Exercise and personal fitness ELEMENTAL POWER: Air AUGMENTS: A single feather of a pure white hue
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Standing at 5’11 with an average build and sensible posture, Dante’s physique tells no particular tale. His tousled brown hair and bright hazel eyes, however, reveal a certain youth about his appearance, if his clear pale skin didn’t do so already. His expression is always quite focused, if not a little indicative of a frown, though this is a feature natural to him, and one he cannot help. He speaks with a predominantly regional accent, though with a slight note that, hearkened back to his place of birth.
For the day-to-day, Dante usually wears a typical smart-casual blend. He largely owns flannel shirts, though those that have a solid colour are also added to the collection. He may sometimes wear a t-shirt underneath, so that he can unbutton his overshirt either completely, or partially. Over his legs, Dante wears either blue, black, or grey slim jeans with a brown belt, as well as brown leather trainers for his feet.
PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION: Dante projects a noticeable air of confidence. He has no trouble taking leadership roles, or seizing the initiative to set something in motion. This could easily be seen as arrogance, but is rather a projection of the young man’s childhood experiences and the lessons he learnt from it. In keeping with this, Dante is a perfectionist at heart. He had been raised to be the best, and whenever that failed: aim to be the best. With such an early teaching ingrained in his system, he has scant experiences with personal failure, which is a double-edged sword of a sorts.
Grounding the air-wielder a little is his cool demeanor. Though focused, Dante can be collected in mind to the point where it borders detachment. His logical thinking mind keeps him relatively calm in situations, or at least when his mind can rule over his heart. After all, being able to organise your thoughts does not always mean your judgement is sound.
All his features may paint the picture of a man quite detached and analytical, and though there are elements of that to him; Dante has a great appreciation of emotion and the arts. After spending an entire childhood longing for the former, he has a blindspot when it comes to compliments, and takes criticisms far too personality, as he sees it as his father incarnate. When it comes to the arts, it is one of the few areas he wasn’t taught in, and as such is a novice at best. When he sees a good piece of art, writing, or music, he is instantly facinated.
BACKSTORY: Dante’s family life was not a typical one, though it wasn’t peculiar enough to warrant any particular distress. He was born into a comfortably wealthy family, the Lawsons, with his mother noticeably absent. He would have inquired into this, if he hadn’t moved houses with his father every half-year. From what he could remember, the first few homes were cold, clinical locations with no real attractions to raise a family. Though, the pair got to a point where they were situated into a comfortable, modern pseudo-mansion just outside the city.
Once they had settled down, and Dante got a taste of what a normal childhood was like, he finally had the opportunity to ask about his mother. His father, much to his credit, answered honestly: ‘work’ had kept them apart, including an older sister who stayed with her mother to keep her company. Upon receiving this news, Dante felt rather betrayed, as any other child would. His mother being apart he could just barely understand, but the fact his sister was kept secret shook him.
He was still five years old, and couldn’t exactly process what to do, so much so that when the next day came along, it was practically a non-issue. This was because his father began a home-schooling regime that was as strict as it was intense. He was taught the general curriculum most his age were subjected to, as well as other things on top of it. A lot of time was spent performing physical activity in the garden, which felt more like an endurance test than anything.
As the years dragged on, the routine continued, without any other distraction. As he was never subject to these, Dante could never truly miss having a social life, or anything other than his tasks to complete. When a quiet frustration, stemmed from an echo of what could have been, brewed inside of him at the age of thirteen it let itself out in a way he could not have expected.
It was a day like no other, and Dante had begun his exercises in the garden as he did any other day; pondering about his dull, repetitive situation. His thoughts turned to his estranged half of the family, and then to his father. He reflected on his paternal role, judging it to being more akin to a disconnected tutor than a real blood relative. The anger released itself into a powerful force of wind that pushed his onlooking father back, whilst recoiling himself back a bit. A sudden wave of anxiety rushed over Dante, yet his father seemed collected. In fact, the only particular passion he showed was a display of anger at the emotional state it put his son into.
From that day, a different regime nestled its way into Dante’s life. His teachings became more intense, and his training more focused on the power of air he exerted. Though the methodical approach helped distract him in some capacity, his frustration remained. After a few years, his father had become harsher and harsher in approach; with seemingly no measure of affection to balance it. The tension culminated into a late-night row, and though his father managed to raise his voice, Dante could tell there was no real iota of care within it.
He had begun to think something wasn’t quite right, and after years of selling himself the dream of a family who would truly appreciate the values of love; he snuck out of his home in anger.
Spending the first few nights without a home, Dante quickly adapted to the outside world. Now seventeen, he landed a few menial jobs to sustain a decent income, and began to map out his plan for the future. Oddly enough, he still continued elements of his old training regime, particularly elements relating to his power.
At age eighteen, he enrolled at the local university for an environmental sciences and geography course, judging that to be a good way of getting around the world, in hopes of finding the answers to all his burning questions.
TRIVIA: - As mentioned, Dante has a fascination with the arts - Dante likes to believe he has specialised in ‘student cooking’ to the point where he has deluded even himself - He has never been outside of Prodagena - He uses the surname Anderson as the first time he introduced himself as 'Dante Lawson', his father was immediately associated. Never finding the root of that, he simply prefers to adopt a fake last name to avoid complications

Name: Nick Strauss Gender: Male Age: 22 Hobbies: Hunting - With his family, Nick liked to go hunting when he lived down in rural countryside, though he does occasionally go back and forth when he visits his family. Woodwork - Nick runs a woodwork shop where he proudly shows most of his work around and gets occasionally commissioned for certain pieces of furniture for select buyers. Cooking - Another one of Nick's more homely hobbies, whenever he can, he will always try to cook and find out the best recipes. This is something he feels embarassed about and tries not to tell his family or friends. Elemental Power: Earth - mainly relies on Metal however Augments: Sword Physical Description: Nick is a grey-eyed young Caucasian man with weather-beaten skin. He's of average height if a bit on the tall side, he has black hair, some stubble which he either shaves or forgets to shave and finds himself growing it out. He has straight black hair that's usually messy, but he keeps it underneath his pale white and orange cap that he got from his older brother, who is still living with his parents down in the rural countryside. Nick usually has large ears (something he has been teased about), and a slim face. His nose, lips and other facial features tend to be of average size, perhaps slightly smaller than one would expect them to be. His eyes, however, are somewhat large. Personality Description: Somewhat reckless, Nick is mostly impulsive when it comes to his decisions but at times he can also think them over greatly. He never can stick to a plan, it's always thinking too little or thinking too much that affects him the most. He has a fondness for nature and likes to try and find beauty in most things, to the point where he appreciates art such as photography, drawing and paining. He does tend to not emphathize with people of higher class however, finding himself to almost be judged by these people for his upbringing, something which still affects his own judgement of the upper-class to this day. Even still, he's a loyal and content person who loves a simple life and can always find enjoyment in those around him. However, he still is often at times reckless, impulsive and has a hard time understanding things from other perspectives. Backstory: Nick Strauss was a simple guy and has always tried to be. When he developed his powers, at first, as a child, thought that this would be a good thing, that he would be able to grow up and easily handle his family's ranch. He never really understood the notion that these powers were dangerous, that it could lead to him hurting someone else or himself and so, with the advice of his family, he decided to not use them. He grew up in a very simply place, a small town that was situated between in the countryside, where he went to school, finished high-school and then simply didn't want to go to college. His family pressured him to go, but Nick felt that he didn't want to have his time focused on education, he liked to build things and craft things for others, and so he asked his father to help teach him woodworking, not to say his father was an expert in this field but they had created and fixed plenty of things in Nick's childhood. Meanwhile, he would go to his mother for help when it came to business management and to improve on his mathmatics. Nick began to save up and prepare himself, it was something of a rough journey, but he had felt like he finally made it, as a person, as someone who wanted to be independent. When he finally made the announcement to his family, there were a few tears but they were happy for him. He would be looking into some places to move, with all the money he had saved up from the dayjob and some money his family saved up to give to him as a little bonus. He wanted to set up his own woodwork shop and found that the city of Prodagena would be a great place to set things up. He found a nice apartment, somewhat cramped but it was cheap enough and a place to set up his shop. However, what he found odd was something in the basement of the shop, someone else had apparently been here before him and in the basement, he picked up a sword, black hilt and a dark grey blade, seemingly made out of metal. He even found a hilt to go with it. At first he though ti t was a joke, or maybe some type of prop, it looked, quite literally, medieval. It was when he swung the sword almost as a joke, he watched a metallic old desk in the absement get caved in and realised his powers, were still there and only changing. Nick, had no idea what to do, he kept the sword and even now it resides in his apartment but he knows that at some point, he's going to have to confront his powers - he just hopes that it isn't anytime soon. Ever since then, he has simply been living a daily routine, making a few friends, saving up enough money to buy commodities like a new phone, a better television, even his own laptop. Nick has been living the simple life in Prodagena for little over a year now and hopes that it stays simple, though he has an odd feeling with all the rumours going around, that it won't be simple for long. Trivia (Please no five paragraphs): Don't worry, it's only four paragraphs - Nick has a love for smoking and drinking, though he does so rarely. He likes to simply save them for special occasions or when he really needs them, understanding that, like his powers, too much indulgence in these could have serious consequences. It still doesn't prevent him from kicking his brother's ass in a drinking contest however, or spending his time in his favourite bar. - Nick has an accent, similar to the southern twang one would hear in places in the southern parts of America such as Texas, this is mainly due to spending a lot of time with family, even extended family who mainly had a similar type of accent on his parents' ranch. - Nick has only ever been trained to fire a pistol and a hunting rifle, whereas his older brother has had more time to collect and focus on different guns and weapons. Nick, despite his love for hunting, never really cared much about guns and so felt he only needed to learn what was neccesary, his father fixated on him learning how to use a pistol in case of danger. Nick eventually gave in to learning this, years after learning how to handle a hunting rifle. Even still, he's not a great shot. - Nick has two siblings, a younger blonde-haired sister named Laura who is sixteen years old and is working hard to become a doctor, hoping to get into Stanford, and an older black-haired brother, Cole who has recently joined the army and has just come back from basic training on leave and is getting ready to go back.

Name: Wren Jackson
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Element: Fire
Specialization: Heat
Augments: A stolen gold ring
Hobbies: - Climbing and freerunning - Breaking and Entering - Thievery
Physical Description: Wren stands 5'9", and possesses a slim but athletic build that comes from years of clambering about the city and living a lifestyle that emphasises speed and dexterity. Her pale brown hair, cut short to keep it out the way in her adventures. Her freckled face is typically covered in scrapes and dirt, while her sharp brown eyes typically dart around as if she is always looking for an escape route or taking in every detail in her surroundings. Her clothing is old and shabby, and she rarely has more than one or two sets at a time, replacing clothes that wear out when needed. Currently, she tends towards a burgundy hooded jacket (with a couple of holes and patches), grey trousers and a black t-shirt that once held a logo, now long worn away.
Personality Description: Wren is fiercely independent, an attitude developed by fending for herself from an early age. Confident, quick thinking, and perceptive, she lives life by no rules but her own, and has no respect for authority. Avoiding capture and lying her way into places she shouldn't reach has given her a real talent for deception and charm, although personally she is insular and poor at making friends- she has lived too long on her own to make companionship an easy thing. Hot-headed and impulsive, Wren is something of a thrill seeker, and loves to take risks for greater rewards, seeking exhilaration and excitement as she explores and steals. A criminal by trade with no care for the rules, she may seem wayward and immoral, and in many ways she is. She sees no issue with stealing from those who can live without what they lost, and will fight tooth-and-claw to avoid any attempts at stopping her, but she is not cruel. She doesn't steal from those worse off than herself, and she dislikes killing intensely, always seeking a peaceful, or at least non-lethal, way of doing her less-than-legal activities. Not quite a crook with a heart of gold, but not malicious at least.
Backstory: Wren was born poor- extremely poor. Her father was long gone by her arrival into the world, while her mother lived on the very edge of poverty in the poorest parts of town. Wren's mother was a caring woman who dedicated her remaining life to raising her child in relative comfort, working long and hard to keep her child from starvation and in education. Long hours at work resulted in a lot of free time for young Wren, who when not at the school that cost so much of the family's income, and she would dream of the world outside their dark, violent corner of existence. The towers of the city, of the rich and the powerful, became an almost fixation- a bright point in a bleak existence. Beyond the stories her mother told her, they were the only hope she was given.
If the world wasn't grim enough already, worse would come. Years of working hard in poorly maintained factories and in the shadow industrial waste took their toll on Wren's mother. When Wren was twelve, she lost the only person who had ever cared about her, when illnesses for which treatment was unaffordable put her mother into the ground. Suddenly alone, Wren began to rely on less moral means of survival, stealing whatever she could and begging for the rest. This was the world she came in to, and after many years it became the world she was most used to.
When she came into her powers, she couldn't explain it. There didn't seem to be a trigger, or a reason why they came about- they just did. Being able to control heat, to melt metal at a whim or create fires with a press of her hand, these were powers that terrified her. But equally, they presented new opportunities, and were a source of excitement in her. As she learned to control them, her confidence grew, and soon she was using them to commit greater crimes than imagined. Private safes were little issue when she could melt the lock, for example, and coupled with her growing talent for climbing, soon the city's most wealthy was in reach. Since then, she has become a talented burglar, and lives off whatever spoils she can get her hands on in the homes of Prodagena's richest...
Trivia: - Wren loves heights and views, and has made it a life goal to climb to the highest points in the city, from which she can look down on everyone, even the wealthy rulers of the city. - Although she tends to move around the city, carrying most of her possessions with her, Wren keeps a hidden den in the upper floors of a building that was abandoned during construction due to the arrival of a colony of near extinct bats that couldn't be easily moved without risk of destruction. Here, she keeps her most sentimental possessions as well as heavier supplies and anything that she can't easily take with her. - Wren is decent at hand to hand combat, but has little experience with firearms. Her natural perception and coordination means she would probably be very good at it, but she has never used a gun before and would require some training or experience to claim to be a good shot. - Wren knows nothing of her father- her mother never spoke of him, and she never chased it up. Judging by her place of birth, he was probably little more than a criminal or addict, and Wren reckons he didn't outlive her mother.

IF ALEX CAN DO IT THEN SO THE FUCK CAN I
Name: Nathan Stone
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Hobbies: - Fencing - Drawing - Taking long walks to pass the time
Elemental Power: Fire
Augments: A leather belt he wears over his shoulder, like a sash
Specialization(Optional): N/A
Physical Description: A young man of average build, Nathan stands at just over 6 foot in height. His black hair rests above his emerald eyes in a short and neat cut, framing the olive skin of his soft face. He maintains good personal hygiene, though he finds himself in trouble often enough to make this difficult. Although his skin is pockmarked by scars from various sources, not one of them is a burn scar - reminding him that he is the only one immune to his powers' destructive nature. His usual attire is very casual, with his 'signature' piece of clothing being a black hoodie, with small burn marks up the sleeves from the use of his power. Other than the hoodie, he is generally found wearing t-shirts and jeans, and of course the belt that augments his power, for the unfortunate cases where he must use it.
Personality Description: Nathan is best described as headstrong - he prefers to solve problems head-on, tackling them (often literally) in whatever way suits him best. Leaving an issue to fester and grow is unnatural to him; if you can't solve it immediately, then find a way to do so.
He prefers to keep his powers hidden away, never using them until he finds a situation where there is no other option - although he won't explain why, Nathan seems to be more afraid of what they can do than anything. This fear isolates him from people, giving him the appearance of a bit of a crybaby, though his willingness to enter a physical altercation quickly fades this image away.
Nathan has been in more than his fair share of fights thanks to his temper issues and in-your-face style of problem solving, only further helping to alienate him from his peers. However, a few people over the course of his life have not made him want to punch their throats in, leaving their impression on him and leading him to occasionally imitate their attitudes unconsciously.
Backstory: Nathan doesn't like to talk about his past; it's obvious after asking the question that he has some demons he's trying to move on from, but hasn't quite done so yet. Rumours circulate around him of some sort of arson, and when you bring the topic up he will likely either shy away or change the topic, or pick a fight right then and there, depending on your impression on him. Nonetheless, there are a few things he is willing to divulge.
He grew up in a normal, loving household, with two parents and an older brother. His anecdotes about this time accompany smiles and nostalgic looks, though they all seem to be from a time long ago. He grew up in Prodagena's suburbs, moving to the city itself in recent years to pursue a business degree (not out of any particular interest, it just seemed the most useful option) at the city's leading university. From there, it's mostly small stories about things that happened during his life, either with his family or the close friends who didn't avoid him. It seems his life is fairly uneventful and barely worth discussing, especially for a half-element.
Trivia: - Although he struggles with a short temper that gets him trouble often, Nathan has, in recent years, found constructive outlets for his aggression. Foremost among these is the sport of fencing.
- Nathan fears his powers, and will not use them if he doesn't have to. As a result, he's particularly inexperienced with them, finding limits in what he can that fall far short of his fellow half-elements.
- Nathan finds solace in the open air, feeling cramped and enclosed while in closed in spaces - not to the point of claustrophobia, just a mild discomfort. Given the option, he would do anything he possibly could while sitting outside under the sun.

AND SO CAN I!
Name: Swan Skade Gender: Female Age: 18
Hobbies: -Gardening -Jogging in parks or anywhere near nature -Marksmanship
Elemental Power: Earth Augments: Pocket-bow Specialization(Optional): N/A
Physical Description: Swan stands at 5’7’’, her hair straight, sandy blonde reaching to just below her shoulders. She usually lets it be until she feels it necessary to tend to, making her seem like a bit of a mess sometimes. Her large pine green eyes sometimes seem to pop out from her round face, helped by the make-up she barely bothers to apply.
She usually wears a dark coloured tank top and a hoodie one size too large, paired off with dark blue jeans and her most worn out trainers. You will never see her without her small blue backpack.
Personality Description:[/i] Though generally sweet, this slightly reserved girl tends to shy away from people in general. Due to her past she is reluctant to trust people completely with her story, but the few friends she has she stays loyal to, never leaving anyone behind even at the risk of her own life.
She loves watching and making plants grow to soothe her ever wandering mind, and will sometimes get random spurs of emotion or ideas. Whether this is to her calm personality or a side effect from some of the drugs she’s usually high on, is difficult to decide on. Backstory: The few things Swan remembers from her childhood comes back in her nightmares, so when inquired she usually chooses to share the things which happened after her thirteenth birthday.
Her version of her youth is as follows; She grew up in a small but cozy hut, seated among fields of barley a little while away from Prodagena. On her seventeenth birthday she couldn’t take anymore of her father’s drinking habit and left home, taking all the part-time jobs she could get her hands on in Prodagena while she saved up money for an apartment.
She usually leaves out the bit about her small but not so insignificant drug habit, and most of what she’s been saving up has already gone to this unhealthy remedy keeping the monsters at bay. Now she stays in a run-down motel and tries to make enough for paying the rent and keeping up her bad habit.
Trivia(Please no five paragraphs): -She loves cats, no matter the size, colour or length of fur. If there is a kitten nearby, she will be drawn to it. -She is a good archer, always carrying the one thing she has left from her childhood home, and enjoys practicing her marksmanship whenever she has the time.

NAME: Kyle Hall GENDER: M AGE: 19
HOBBIES: - Sci-fi movies - Comic books - Studying biology - Electronics
ELEMENTAL POWER: Electricity AUGMENTS: Specialised electronic gloves PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Kyle is about 5 foot 10, with dark skin and small but expressive brown eyes hidden behind a pair of glasses. He has shaved, black hair, often wearing a grey beanie over his shaven head along with a grey hoodie, black jeans and a plethora of technicolour t-shirts and matching vans. While not vein he has a definite aesthetic.
PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION: Unassuming and somewhat meek, Kyle is soft-spoken and often unobtrusive. He's not unconfident rather quite introverted and awkward, lacking much of a self-identity. Kyle is quite avid of his hobbies; his prowess in tinkering and programming as well as his biology, which he was studying at university before taking a year out. Kyle is terrible in confrontation, often retreating into himself as he can't compose words very quickly, especially if the person comes across as stubborn or convicted.
Kyle is very quick to judge, but its not hard to overcome his first impressions.
BACKSTORY: Kyle was raised by loving parents, though they were quite simple people. They taught him all he needed to know about being a good person but weren't very intellectual. From a very young age Kyle had incredible interest in technology, also taking to sciences like a duck to water when he started middle school. He especially became enthralled with the inner intricacies of life; cells and natural molecules, comparing it to the systematic structures of computers.
While they could never help him with his homework, Kyle's parents fully supported him and were always proud of his achievements. Kyle always had the aspiration to exceed the life of his family, to make it out of the long line of Halls that dropped out high school and got some crappy 9-to-5 job. He threw himself into his studies, securing himself a place on a course for microbiology at university. But as he kept on pushing himself the pressure got too much.
One late night he'd spent doing extra work in the college labs, Kyle was making use of the university's electron microscope. But as he did it began to fault, creating huge, disruptive artefacts on all of his images. Frustrated he grabbed his case of slides and tossed them against the wall in rage, but as he did a bolt of blue and white lightning seemed to follow. Disturbed and scared, Kyle managed to weasel back home and secure a year out of his studies to figure himself out, and what the hell had just happened.
TRIVIA: - Kyle hates dance music, finding it formulaic, boring and overly-engineered - Kyle is left handed - Somewhat compelled by characters from a videogame, Kyle took up gymnastics and parkour when he was younger, but abandoned it to make more time for his studies. - Kyle's favourite movie is The Terminator.

Name: Seth McClain Gender: Male Age: 17 Hobbies: Parkour - This is a way for him to release stress and escape his problems for awhile. And also, he finds it fun. It's something to do for him when he can't get out of the city. Hiking - He likes to explore the outdoors, get away from the city. It's a very cool experience to find stuff in the wild for him. Writing - He likes to organize his thoughts and solve problems. It again, soothes stress for him. It's what he does when he can't get out of his house. Elemental Power: Lightning Augments: A matte black wrist watch on his right hand. (Under the black paint, it's simple aluminum) Specialization: Thunder Physical Description: He's a little tall, standing at 6'2". He's somewhat fit, and rather thin. He has a long face. He has blue eyes, covered by plastic rimmed, rectangular glasses. He has light brown hair, side swept right. He has fair skin, a little tan though because of how much he's outside. He wears a pear of dark blue jeans, a long sleeve shirt, the sleeves red and the rest white. He usually has the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. He also wears a pear of black and white sneakers, a small amount of the top of the sneakers covered by his jeans. Personality Description: He seems quiet at first, but will open up the more he gets to know people. He usually stands up for what's right. He's not much of a leader, and would much rather let someone else take that position. He tends to be a clean freak, and when he has the time will clean stuff up. He can seem unresponsive sometimes, however this is usually because he's deep in thought. Usually, when angered, he'll stray away from his usual quiet personality, and lash out. Afterwards, he'll run somewhere quiet to be alone and think about things. When he's sad, he tries to hide it, and bottle it up. Backstory: Seth was born into a family of conflict, roughly 1-2 months after being born, his parents divorcing. His mother moved to some town he had never heard of, and his dad moved to an apartment in Prodegena and took Seth with him. His father would occasionally take him out on hikes, so he could get away from the city. His dad got a job as an EMT, which meant he didn't have as much time for Seth later on his early teens. Before this his dad had a bunch of small, bad paying jobs. His father eventually worked his way up to being a surgeon. As Seth grew more independent in his teens, he also found hobbies, such as parkour and writing. He trained himself in parkour. His powers started developing right before his 17th birthday. On his 17th birthday he received the watch that he uses as an augment. Almost a month after, they had fully developed. Seth started figuring out he had powers a few weeks later, when he was trying to cross the street, and was almost hit by a drunk driver. He had outstretched his hand quickly and a thunderclap pushed the car back towards traffic. He quickly fled from the scene, to his dad's apartment. He decided to keep it hidden from his dad for as long as he could, and has kept them hidden for a few weeks now. Trivia: -Seth loves nature, including the surrounding waters.
-He also loves heights, due to his hobby of parkour.
-His favorite weather is rainy weather.
-He has a sister he never met, because his mother took her with her to whatever city she moved to. According to his dad, she's a year older then Seth, and her name is Melinda.
-Seth will not kill, unless absolutely necessary.

Name: Nicky Sanders Gender: Female Age: 16 Hobbies: Swimming and Bird watching Elemental Power: Water Augments: None Specialization: None Physical Description: At 5'8 Nicky is slowly working her way towards the gangly frames of her parents, her skin is pasty but tanned from time outside freckles sprouting like daisies across her skin. Her hair is a frazzled mess of light brown curls and her eyes are deep green pools in her thin face. She looks spindly like a baby giraffe though muscles are starting to form in an even pattern across her body. Personality Description: Nicky is very quiet and reclusive after spending so much time alone when she was younger. She's independent in some ways but in other tasks like riding a bike or taking public transports she freezes up with worry. Most of the time she looks anxious except when she is by the sea or a lake breathing in the smell and listening to lonely bird calls away from other people. Backstory: Nicky has lived as an only child with her parents by the bay since she was born, the sounds of the waves lulling her to sleep at night. Nicky was born with problems in her limbs, spending a lot of time in and out of hospitals up until her twelfth birthday. Only in the last few years has she attended school full time, not an overly enjoyable experience as she is still incredibly stiff when she walks and her gait is uneven a fact given a mixture of pity and derision by her school mates.
Nicky got into swimming as part of her rehabilitation and where on land she looks awkward in the water she is elegant, the water seeming to flow with her as she cuts through the surface leaving hardlya ripple. Her powers have not yet surfaced in a notable way but her swimming abilities are getting more and more prominent, to a staggering degree. Trivia: - Even though she loves birds she owns a bird murdering grey cat called Peregrine. - When she was five she wanted to be a dancer now when she grows up she wants to be a physiotherapist

Name: May June Gender: Female Age: 18 Hobbies: Climbing Bushcraft Playing the hulusi Studying archaeology Elemental Power: Earth Augments: A pendant, charmed with a beautiful gem Specialization(Optional): No Physical Description: May June is of east Asian descent, with light skin and a classic Chinese bob hairstyle. She is an average 5"9 with a well defined, straight face. Her hair is a thick black shade, accompanied by deep green eyes. She has defined muscles, though they are hidden under a 3/4 grey raglan henley which in turn covered by a bright orange gilet. She wears slim yet tight grey trousers which are tucked into black, high walking boots. Personality Description:
Enjoying her time outdoors, May's personality blooms with charm. She is naïve and optimistic, always looking for the silver lining in every cloud. She is incredibly devoted to her tasks, filling her with determination and confidence when necessary, though she is able to retain a calm aura if required. Headstrong and caring, May will do anything to protect her friends, regardless of whether the outcome will be good or bad. Backstory: May had a normal, happy upbringing with a loving, healthy father and grandmother. She focused in school, being able to avoid stress and take time for herself. Whilst her farther worked to bring money to the household as well as making everything ran smoothly, it was May's job to care for her grandmother. It was with this lady that she would confide. She had an aptitude with animal handling and meditation, as if all around her felt safe in her presence. Her grandmother slowly grew senile and ill, and May would distract from her studies in order to spend more precious time with her grandmother before her passing. When the inevitable came, May grew shallow and lonely having been struck with grief at the loss of her best friend. To distract from this, May's rarely seen father enrolled her in climbing clubs and scouting groups. She became closely knit with a few certain individuals who came to be her friends and their shared circle would enrol in competitions in all areas of outdoor activities. Her numerous victories earned her local fame, as well as a scholarship for further education, something her father revelled in. Being proud of her achievement, May treated herself with a journey to a nearby glade. She made her way through the twisting woods and up the rolling hills, May came across a carved stone pedestal, adorned with a glyph. Carved into the glyph were the words "Love, granny". Below these words, a wrap of parchment paper lay wrapped into a roll, and it was within this roll that May found a leather string which elegantly wrapped around a bright crystal. May excitedly wore the pendant, and experienced a feeling of serenity and peace she had never been subject to before. The Earth spoke to May that day, and she would reply. And to these replies, the Earth would move. Trivia
- May does not follow eastern culture, having spent her entire life away from her parents' birthplace. An exception of this is her hulusi which she often plays, though this is simply due to her fascination with foreign musical instruments. - On her birth certificate, May's name is Mei Xún, though she prefers to be called by her self-made western counterpart. - May aspires to be an adventurer, being able to publish her studies to generate income.

Name: Violet "Vi" Robbins Gender: Female Age: 17 Hobbies:- Martial Arts - Swimming - Excercise Elemental Power: Water Augments: A pair of black combat gloves,looking very similar to thesePhysical Description: Vi has a heart shaped face with a slightly defined pointy chin. Her heterochromia blue and green, her left being green and right being blue, evenly spaced apart, sitting below a pair of thin eyebrows which follow the curve of her short button nose. Her natural shaped lips usually bent in a little smile, her short brown hair having some wavy locks on the ride side, the ends of these locks are dyed purple. Typically Vi wears a short camo jacket over her average shoulder, a few pockets of the jacket allows her to store a few items, the jacket barely covers a short-sleeved black shirt. Below her waist, she wears camo pants and a pair of thick, black combat boots. On top of her head rests a pair of aviator shades. Personality Description: Though Vi's appearance would point to the opposite, Vi is rather bashful. Though her style makes her seem confident, she were quite shy and withdrawn from doing much that would attract attention to her. Vi's shy nature causes her to have a hard-time making friends and conversations with her are awkward at least. Vi's slightly naive, her sheltered lifestyle outside of contact with most people has caused her to have a somewhat idealised outlook concerning people. She's very honest and genuine with people, not one to beat around the bush but preferring a more blunt approach even if she ends up regretting it later on. With a very tiny amount of friends, Vi treasures them more than anything else. Backstory: Born to a Military family, Vi spent many years of her life always moving town to town, city to city, a young girl with no hometown. Vi spent most of her time swimming, her natural affinity for water being displayed at a young age. Her powers were very much her little secret, spending time alone playing around with the water she could manipulate. Her father decided to teach her martial arts when she turned 13, which according to her father meant that she had to protect herself from all the boys & girls would try to hurt her. She enjoyed it a lot, seeing as it'd be useful if she ever had to utilise it. While training by herself Vi had the idea to mix in her water attacks with the martial arts, which made for some pretty mean attacks, shooting jets of water with each punch, adding that extra damage. Vi also decided to begin working out alongside it, keeping fit so that she could keep up with training. Since she was constantly moved around Vi didn't get a lot of interaction with people, often being kept inside and just being shy in general. She believed being honest and genuine with people was the right way to treat people, since hiding things would end up coming out worse than they did just being said straight out. Her arrival at Prodagena was brought on by her father having to go overseas for an unknown time, prompting her mother to decide it was time that they both settled down in a city, so that even if her father returned, they'd have a home. Trivia:- Her wardrobe is filled with military-style clothing - Hasn't played a lot of video games OMG SCOTT, WHAT AN AMAZING APP!I know, I know, so good.ACCEPTED!
