In this thread is every character application made to V&V prior to the move to virtueforum.boards.net Note: Creator names are pretty much going to be whatever I feel is the most identifying way to refer to people; usually the name they use but in the case of people who change their names often (looking at you, Arla) I'll just use something general

Created by AlexJ Name: Grace Scott Alias: Starlass Gender: Female Age: 21 Alignment: Hero
Specialisations: - Flight - Light harnessing
Physical Description: Grace has a healthy body figure, at a height of 5'9. Her posture his confident, exemplifying the look in her deep green eyes that suggests potential and sheer willpower. Her face is quite rounded and Grace can normally be seen with a half-smile, at the least. She has long black hair that she puts into a ponytail when going about her normal life, where she typically wears a light blue sweater with a white dress shirt underneath and a black jeans. When she takes on the persona of Starlass, her aura itself becomes more demanding. She lets down her hair and hides the more defining facial features with a large black domino mask. Instead of average day-to-day clothes, Starlass dons a navy blue tunic of thick, durable leather, with black gloves and an even thicker shoulderguards. On the front of her torso, a white star sits proudly. A smaller star is emblazoned on her black belt, that separates the navy of her tunic with the navy of her trousers, where black boots are also adorned.
Personality Description: Grace is a smart, proud and confident individual. She is not afraid express her opinions, her deep pride of her home and life winning the adoration of all who know her. She has always been one to help those without, setting up studying groups throughout exam seasons and conducting small, menial tasks throughout her neighborhood. When Grace becomes Starlass, it is almost as if all these features become more refined, more focused. Starlass is known for her expression through her deeds and not necessarily her voice (though she has been known to offer words of wisdom when and where they are needed). Though for all the good features, Grace finds a disdain for those who threaten the good in the world and will often act out rashly against them. Although Starlass cannot afford to make such a mistake, she still feels the same anger inside of her.
Backstory: Grace grew up in an environment where superheroes often made news, their inspiring faces hitting the television screen. She found herself captivated by this new world of wonder and what the naive child believed to be magic. One night, at the age of eight, Grace looked outside of her window, to the dark sky and saw a star unlike any other. "Shooting star!" she excitedly concluded, making a wish that she could one day be like those superheroes on the television screen. Grace's excitement elevated as she noticed the star managed to crash right outside her garden and began to glow a peculiar white. She froze, checking for any noise, with luck her parent's had not heard the crash. They did not. Grace carefully made her way down the stairs and out into the garden. She smiled and bit her lip as she extended a hand out to the fallen star. The white glow expanded and consumed the vicinity of the garden, engulfing Grace in it's beauty. The whole procedure was silent, a few moments passed before the glow settled down into nothingness, leaving the young Grace alone in the dark once more. Until, a few seconds after, Grace noticed the same white glow dancing around her fingertips. She was left breathless. She had wished for something great, and something great had been granted.
In the years that passed, Grace had learnt the little complexities of her power as she learnt the little complexities of herself. In her studies, she took a particular interest in history and astronomy. She had learnt to focus her power of light, which in turn boosted her focus in school. However, her powers had never contributed to other people until one day when she was 18. Grace was going to an interview that would decide her entry into university, when she became witness to a street crime. A man who looked to be in his 50s pulled out a knife to a young teenager, grabbing his phone and whatever money the poor boy may have had. As the man escaped the scene, Grace felt an anger wash over her. She noticed that she had begun to float slightly. Her eyes widened and Grace was a loss for words. She pulled up the hood from her jacket, to hide her face and soared into the air, offering a birds-eye view of the criminal. When Grace detected the man, she swooped down and apprehended him, firing scolding hot beams of light at his feet, stopping him in his tracks . In typical cliché suphero fashion, Grace was met with adoration. When quizzed with a name, the hooded woman could only think of the title 'Starlass', a combination of her favourite object, and the name her father used to give her.
Grace took a gap year, to become accustomed to the role of hero. She did a lot in that year, so much that the city gifted her with a uniform made of the most expensive materials, a testament to all Starlass had done and all she will do.

Created by Tzeench Name: Ftanghr, The nameless Alias: The Spokesman Of Insanity Gender: Too horrible to contemplate Age: Older than the Universe....and many more Alignment: Neutral, with some tendencies to Villain
Specializations: - Gift of Truth The Creature gives to a person a tiny little fragment of the truth of all things . Too much of it for their minds nonetheless. Maddening visions take over everyone in the vicinity ,Making them cower in fear, escape in terror or at least flinch over the horrible truth revealed to them. Some recover, others are cursed with insanity from the revelation.(THis is different than THe power of Mind Manipulation in the sense that it can affect multiple subjects at the same time)
-Gift of Mutation By merely a touch, The Nameless one delivers to a creature or object some of it's foul existence. Flesh is corrupted and molded, stone and metal shaped in organic forms. Weak subjects dissipate in a puddle of disgusting flesh. Stronger ones are mutated, Hands into pincers or tentacles, Eyes to fingers or the opposite. Those effects are temporary, but prolonged exposure to his powers might have worse side effects. THis power is draining to him, and he does not uses it lightly
Physical Description: WHat you shall First see of the nameless of is a man whose body is covered in a tattered Yellow cloak. As you however approach from a distance, his inuman traits become more and more visible. His body is barerly visible, only his clawed grey and skeletal hands are seen outside his cloak, with only 4 fingers each. He wear on his face a white mask, leaving little holes from where his mouth and eyes should be, but there is note. Only two orbs of crimson light to where his eyes should be...
Personality Description: The spokesman of Insanity cannot be described with mortal terms, much less understood. What can be said is that he is not evil by nature. His followers were led to him by their own will, and he does not lend his gifts without consent unless in self defense. He is also protective on those who swear by him, going to great lengths to keep them out of harms way. Outside of that, he is quite uncaring of mortals, caring only to reunite with his brothers and find his full power again. He has little if any conflicts on how he will reach those ends. Generally, he acts through his cult, unless a more refined approach is needed. He acts through charisma and cunning, not brute force.
Backstory: THrough the endless cycles of the universe, one being birthed and dying, and another created to it's place, a ragtag band of survivors said no. THey were the last living members of a nigh omnipotent race , who in their pride refused to die with the end of their cycle. Through an unspeakable ritual, they managed to defy the mercilessness of time, and pass through the next universe. However, their ritual was no perfect.
Ftanghr The nameless Came into the Universe we know, but barely alive, close to death. He managed to land to a barely formed planet, falling into a slumber for millions of years to recover his power.
When he awoke, he expected that he would be on the peak of his power, ready to unite his scattered brother and rule this realm like gods, who had stood against time and space itself.
He was wrong
He awakened prematurely, barely at the tiniest fraction of his power. The world had changed, a strange race inhabiting it. What had happened ? Ftanghr Had no answers, and so the search begun, for his brothers and his lost power.
He found allies in this quest, exiles of this hairless race that looked for answers too. To those, He gave his gifts eagerly , promising enlightenment and ascendancy over their mortal frames should they aid him. He had a growing numbers of followers, ending with the creation of a pseudo new age cult.
Over his journey over the world, he discovered the truth trough his loyal agents . His power was stolen from him, bound in an artifact and hidden . The place for more answers was obvious: Heartania

Created by Arbor117 Name: Alf Jones Alias: Argent Mind Gender: Male Age: 64 Alignment: Hero
Specializations: - Telepathy The Argent Mind does not take control of people, or play with their minds through illusion. He uses his telepathy to dive into the thoughts of his targets, hunting for weaknesses in villains and guilt in suspects. In his younger years he was far happier to use this power, but recently he has changed his attitude, only finding secrets in dire situations. He will still use it to detect surface thoughts, however, allowing him to locate humans trapped under rubble or hiding from him.
- Telekinesis Driven and controlled by a focused mind, telekinesis is Argent Mind's primary talent. Lifting objects and manipulating them is his specialization, and for over forty years he's mastered his abilities. Lifting himself to allow him to hover, ripping firearms from criminal hands and even defecting bullets, this power is both versatile and powerful.
Physical Description: Despite his advancing age, Alf keeps himself in good shape. His dark hair and beard may be graying, but he still possesses a powerful frame and a muscular physique. He was once handsome, and to many still is in a refined sort of way, but his piercing grey eyes are lined with age. His outfit has gone through several iterations, but it has always been primary silver. His current style forms from a silver and blue color scheme, featuring a black fist clenching a silver star as his symbol, emblazoned on his chest. His head is covered by an armored face mask, that leave his mouth in the open to display his famous smile. A black cape falls from his shoulders, blowing impressively in the wind as he traverses the city. In normal life, Alf wears battered jackets and jeans, moving from his striking costume to a purely uninteresting style.
Personality Description: Inspiring and heroic, Argent Mind is a classic hero. Winning smiles, unyielding morals and quick to laugh, he represents everything a hero should aspire to be, at least in the public eye. Among hero's he is well respected, and many younger aspiring champions of justice find in him a mentor. However, out of costume Alf is a darker man. Troubled by the loss of so many friends over his long career, and inherently lonely without his empowered compatriots, he is somewhat reclusive. He spends less and less time out of costume, going so far as to live as Argent Mind rather than himself for weeks at a time, as only behind a mask can he feel accepted. Without his work, there is only dark memories, and Alf knows only too well how that way lies darkness.
Back story: Argent Mind is a hero who's been around for decades. Many heroes die young, fighting to defend what they believe in, but Argent Mind always survived his battles. Over four decades he's defeated countless opponents, overcome several nemesis', and trained some of the most successful heroes. Alf took the role as part of a team at the age of 17, and has been fighting crime ever since, the last remaining member of his old brethren. Extremely famous in the media due to his successes, he is remarkably popular among the populace. This is, of course, a double edged sword.
As he gets older, many rising villains see a perfect way to gain infamy is to be thew one to kill this old hero. Although clearly none have succeeded yet, that hasn't stopped this seemingly continuous stream of targeted attacks. To combat these risks, it's Argent Mind's desire to pull together a team of heroes to work to defend each other. He's rather not see any more young impetuous champions of justice meet an unnecessary end.
Another issue also stems from his age. The media likes to focus on this, and often questions his ability to maintain his abilities after so long in the field. A momentary loss of power due to exhaustion, something any crime fighter will have experienced, is targeted as a sign of flagging spirits. A injury forcing him to leave active duty to heal for a couple of weeks will become an elder's body falling under pressure. Headlines like "Is it time our old hero hang up the cape" are good sellers. Questions about competency for heroes have always existed, but this is proving to be a continuous and savage assault. Just another hardship for an aging hero. Perhaps the ones who die are lucky, becoming martyrs rather than withering into public and popular scorn.

Created by Jaminx Name: Generation K Prototype Basic 1 Alias: Kay Gender: Not Applicable Age: 15 Alignment: Neutral
Specialisations: - Skin Shift The ability to change outer physical appearance completely. This does not mean they can change their mass so no turning into a mouse or a bat but they could theoretically turn into a large wolf or a mermaid. Also the eyes remain the same vibrant and very different colour as a dead give away that they are the same individual if you know what to look for.
- Quick Learner The ability to learn any skill in an extremely short time period to an extremely high standard, however if a skill is learned at a faster speed than it would normally be attained through traditional learning they have to focus constantly or they will lose the ability to perform it in any way for a decent period of time. For example if they learnt to fly a helicopter in five minutes once they reached their destination and stopped flying to do another task, they would have no clue how to fly the helicopter whatsoever even with full training again for at least a couple of months.
Physical Description: The outward appearance of Kay changes depending on the situation, sometimes a leggy buxom brunette sometimes a balding older male whatever is needed for the situation.
Their twinkling purple eyes with stars in the pupils cannot be changed easily so are often hidden behind dark glasses as contacts just get burned through. Their height is usually at just under six feet tall however it can be compacted quite a bit but Kay prefers this height.
Personality Description: Kay is inquisitive and adaptive learning things quickly by working through them logically. Kay is not too emotional, not forming grudges or hatreds but that does not mean that if you sleight them they will take it lightly as they react with the amount of force they feel appropriate to avoid repeating the situation, which can often appear heavy handed to others.
Back-story: Kay was a prototype for a humanoid servant/ bodyguard for wealthier citizens of Heartania. As a prototype they were of course not exactly what was aimed for being a little too human, with a bit too much free will and other attributes uncommon to a good servant.
These extras were programmed to be even more prominent when the project collapsed from lack of funding, their creator played about with what they had left to make Kay more militarily practical with added training in weaponry, spy-craft and the art of killing added with their already customisable skin so that they could scrape some money back from the failure.
Once Kay had been at this for a couple of years they started to take on secret contracts other than what their creator hired them out for, after a while they saved up enough to buy themselves free.
Now Kay hires their services out to the population of Heartania as anything that is needed.
Their ability to learn skills quickly, strange set of morals and an even stranger personal project to fund, means they have become a highly popular mercenary with a certain market in a short period of time. Working for Heroes and Villains alike.

Created by t00bz Name: Danny Wu Alias: Typhoon Gender: Male Age: 28 Alignment: Neutral
Specialisations: - Technology Danny's background as a hacker and a former government operative makes him an ideal spy and infiltrator. He is accustomed to both government and civilian systems and machinery and if he is given the resources and the access he needs on a technological system, be it robot or computer, he can almost certainly use it to his advantage.
- Hyperkinesis Danny was born with a mutation in his brain which has allowed him to process the movement at a significantly faster rate than others. This allows him to have great athletic feats of timing and superhuman reflexes as his brain's process of the physical environment about him gives him time to react. This, combined with his training in martial arts as a child for an athletic activity and the special forces training that Hong Kong gave him makes him a deadly fighter, no matter if he has a weapon or not.
Physical Description: Danny is of Chinese descent. He is fit, but not incredibly well built and stands at 5'6". Danny doesn't see himself as an incredible superhero, and dresses as a normal man would, as he tries to blend in, usually meaning jeans and a hooded sweater to cover himself up, as well as a bandana around his neck to cover the bottom of his face when needed, though he has been said to disguise in order to steal resources from various computer systems in government and large corporations.
Personality Description: Danny is sarcastic but behind his rather comical personality is a rather pessimistic and unhappy personality, as he had to leave everything and everybody he knew without a word, his only support are some very well trusted friends he has, and he even considers many of those friends potential liabilities. He will always speak his opinions and is generally a person who believes in "the end justifies the means", as long as the end will outweigh the consequences of the means and won't work against his interests.
Backstory: Danny was born in Hong Kong with the chinese name Wu Zhishen. Hong Kong is a great region of the world that revolted when the "One country, two systems" principle of Hong Kong expired, the mercantile and business center of Hong Kong rioted against the changes that China tried installing when the principle had run its course and resulted in several years of opposition. However, both sides knew that the conflict was a hopeless stalemate, the people of Hong Kong had long prospered in the capitalism and the freedom Hong Kong had offered and China couldn't kill an idea, because that is, and always has been impossible. China had a bigger military force than the rebel forces on the administrative region, but even if they crushed the rebels, the people would still resent the mainlanders for forcing socialism on them. So a shaky truce followed and a pact similar to the one established when Hong Kong was given back to China by Britain in 1997 was created, but there was much less trust this time, as those in Hong Kong believed that China would try installing socialist policies on Hong Kong's economy again, the pro-capitalist militia went underground as a very secret project of Hong Kong's government, which was not allowed to have an army, but could control it's own political system, legal, economic and financial affairs, waiting for a time when they would be needed again. Danny Wu eventually joined this secret army and worked for their intelligence with his background in hacking and in computers, he was an incredible spy, being able to simply get into a government building in disguise and undetected and copy some confidential documents or the more complex and sophisticated approach of hacking into government systems and getting data from there. Life was good, he had a girlfriend and he and his brother were making enough money to support their family. Unfortunately, somebody on mainland China found out he'd been spying, though it was lucky that the leak hadn't resulted in Hong Kong's secret buildup of a small military force. However, Danny had to run, Hong Kong had control over its own legal affairs, but he would be an easy target for capture, or assassination if he stayed in Hong Kong. Keeping his family and his beloved safe, he left his money to them and left without a word. He was on the run before finally giving up, he traveled to California, first going to San Francisco, but with his skill with computers, he kept close tabs and realized that the Chinese government was sending people to hunt him down. He moved up the West Coast every time he got wind of something, then to Texas, then to the East Coast, and after that he left the country and ended up in Heartania, staying about a month in each city. By the time he'd ended up in Heartania, Danny had a decent amount of money, mainly by hacking or by some contracts he'd signed up for with a false name, but now he's also sick of running and he's waiting for his past to catch up to him so he can make a last stand. Now, Danny works to gain allies in hopes that they will help him see his family and his girlfriend again, working on gaining powerful allies in Heartania's crime ridden areas and from those who are admired by the people and who do good and who might not be limited as much by the laws. He is fairly well known to both heroes and villains alike because he has spent significantly more time in Heartania than in other cities he'd passed through on his outlaw journey, known as Typhoon or as his chinese name, Wu Zhishen, though he is known only to a select few personally as a person, not just as a name. As long as somebody is acting in what he sees as in his interests, they will have a powerful ally.

Created by LHudson Name: Jonathan Kramer Alias: The Broker Gender: Male Age: ?? Alignment: Neutral, whatever the outcome entertains him the most
Specializations: - Information Gathering - Technology
Physical Description: The Broker is slender built with a tendency to wear fancy coats with a hat, though not a fedora due to a high school bully normally wearing a fedora as a way to brag about his health. His black shoes were designed to make a noise, therefore signalling everyone his presence. Under the coat is a small utility brace, though non-lethal, set above his white shirt and black tie. He has a small shadow under his chin, and a small piece of glass is carried around inside his coat.
Personality Description: The Broker is duplicitous, with no one really understand what he likes or dislikes, or which side of the moral spectrum he is on. Sometimes he assists criminals by giving them information in regards to what flaws the security systems has, sometimes he assists the heroes into what the criminals are about to do, but he also sometimes sabotages their efforts in order to create as much entertainment as possible. He isn't without compassion, and some things he assists or sabotages the client normally relates to his own past.
Back-story: There are conflicting stories about the Broker, but there are some stories he is consistent with. He talks about the time he destroyed a bully's fedora before scaring him out of the school by manipulating him with personal secrets. He also credits himself for being the seed of a house fire, though there is no evidence linking him to the crime. His attitude to the disabled suggests he either has family or friends with disabilities.

Created by Arla Name: Jade Blythe Alias: La Mirage (Mira for short) Gender: Female Age: 18 Alignment: Neutral (But she would tip more to villain, if she didn’t have a Robin Hood-complex)
Specialisations: - Transparence She has the ability to make herself and objects she’s in touch with, completely invisible to the naked eye as well as recording devices. The items regain their visibility approximately five seconds after she’s lost physical contact with the object. She can maintain her own invisibility much longer though.
- Telekinesis She’s able to lift and bend items at her will. It’s her most useful skill for sure, as her knack for mystery and deception has made her come up with a few tricks of her own.
Physical Description: Her short, curly copper hair isn’t the most characteristic feature of her looks. The first thing you’d notice is her mismatching eyes, the one being (most likely) a deep indigo, changing colour to show how much effort she puts into her telekinetic powers. The other eye reflects her mood, a delightful green when she’s happy and an intense orange when she’s angry. Nobody knows how many colours her eyes can display, and she's not able to control their colour. She stands with a confident, fit posture at 5’7” and wears a large dark purple top hat, customized to help with her tricks and nightly bank robberies. Her cloak and shoes always match her hat; she wears a golden Venetian mask to make recognition a difficult task, a white shirt with a light purple vest and light golden trousers. On rare occasions, she wears a red bowtie to match her hair. Informally she wears convenient clothing: jeans, (usually) a white t-shirt and sneakers. She only puts on her “purple gear” on stage and when she performs her street tricks/stunts, which have given her a lot of popularity among the public and press.
Personality Description: She’s got a bit of a Robin Hood-complex: take from the rich and give to the poor, as long as she gets her share. Many people would look at her with dismay if they knew her generosity was financed by the multiple bank robberies and art thefts in the vicinity. Loveable and charming, nobody suspects her of the unstable, sly personality that causes her to look for the next challenge of her powers and intellect. She is also a bit vain.
Backstory: She first discovered her power to be completely invisible in primary school after a game of hide and seek where she not only became invisible, but made the tree she climbed disappear as well. The bullies at school made her an outcast afterwards, calling her a freak when her eyes started to mismatch and blaming her when several items went missing. Isolated and an easy prey to the bullies, she would look at them with fury and imagine how she could make them feel the same way as she did. Not long after, she got expelled and started homeschooling after what the teachers described as “an event so grim it should be punishable by death, had she not been gifted by the rare gift of telekinesis”. She grew up in a rich family, and with too much time on her hands she started to learn magic tricks to keep herself from being bored. One day she wanted to show off, and opened a stand on the street. Soon people started to flock her, and not long after the press started to follow her around. Wearing a mask that hid her face along with her father’s black top hat, she longed to create her own identity; and thus, La Mirage was born. Not one has been able to recognize who she really is underneath the golden Venetian mask. Yet.

Two parents and a little girl. She felt enjoyment from it. She made a base for herself, Her face plastered all over as a dangerous wanted criminal. She made herself known in Heartania. She's been in jail a few times but she's always managed an escape. Always by outwitting those incompetent guards or by being busted out.

Created by Arbor117 Name: Previously Quentin Stone Alias: Nightmare Gender: Male Age: 43 Alignment: Villain
Specializations: - Body of Shadows Nightmare is a being of shadows made solid, and has the power to return to this ethereal form. When Nightmare "Shrouds", as he calls it, his form turns translucent and he becomes untouchable. Unable to interact physically with the outside world, Nightmare can pass through solid objects while Shrouded and cannot be touched by solid items. Only bright light can drive him away, as all other substances pass right through him, or in the form of telekinesis fail to take hold, slipping off or through his ghostly visage.
- Mutable Form Nightmare's body has lost it's physical structure, and can now warp to his whim. While he maintains the same size and humanoid form, his arms could become spectral blades or screaming flails. Due to this unnatural existence he moves with great speed and power, although those specialized in either field greatly outmatch his abilities.
Physical Description: Nightmare is a man made of darkness, a swirling creature of shadow made manifest. His featureless jet-black face gives no emotion, the only real feature his body gives away is that of a tall, physically imposing silhouette. His limbs warp and fluctuate at his whim, but normally appear with savagely clawed hands.
Personality Description: Callous, cruel and utterly devoid of empathy, there are few as black hearted as the man of shadow. Nightmare cares for little save for causing pain and suffering, and will kill anyone or anything that crosses him (and many that don't), normally in an extremely brutal or extraordinarily painful manner. He is willing to work for powerful villains, assuming they can strike bargains with him for his services and maintain his payment (as well as providing a steady stream of things to kill), but is far too vicious to be seen as a neutral individual. Despite being hunted by heroes and police for many years, his ethereal body has left him extremely difficult to capture or kill, allowing Nightmare to continue racking up a terrible body count of tortured victims.
Backstory: Quentin Stone was one of the most insane and monstrously genius serial killers of the last half a century, torturing and murdering over thirty people before facing justice over a decade ago. Despite having no powers, the disturbed man was able to avoid capture for three years after commencing his campaign of slaughter, leaving his victims mangled and abused corpses in public places to cause maximum horror. So dangerous was he, several off duty heroes were ambushed and dispatched by the masked murderer, and a number more fell into nightmarish traps he left to catch his pursuers. Eventually, his reign of terror was brought to an end by a team of three young heroes and a vast police operation, as he ironically fell foul of a cunning trap his captors prepared. He was found unanimously guilty at trial, and it was decided he was too dangerous to let live. It seemed like the cold murderer's brutal actions were finally over.
However, as he was being held in a prison in preparation for execution, Quentin Stone escaped. A mass break out of the inmates resulted in a quick and daring break for freedom that set the media into a frenzy of terror. It would take three weeks and four more deaths for Quentin to be cornered, fleeing into the sewer with a powerful force of perusing officers at his heels. He lost them in the darkness, and it almost seemed that he would be free again. But then, a blood curdling scream echoed throughout the stinking tunnels, and upon approaching the police team found the crumpled lifeless corpse of Quentin Stone, no marl on his body. Autopsies revealed no obvious cause of death, but few cared. As far as they were concerned, the monster had fallen.
He hadn't though. Nightmare was born down there, in the shadows of the sewer. How and why have never been answered, even for the extreme few who managed to make the connection between the strange death of Stone and the shrouded figure who then was seen, killing each of the three heroes who caught Stone over the next few years. Although Nightmare has nit continued his previous slaughter to avoid unwanted attention, the murderous instinct that drives him has never left. He simply directs in in a more controlled, targeted and self serving manner now...

Created by iCaramelBird Name: Luke "Hunter" Jones Alias: Hunter Gender: Male Age: 20 Alignment: Neutral
Specialisations: - Technology Ever since he was a child, Luke had a very special connection to technology and mixed with his focus and perception he was able to somehow control it in some ways. However this has proven dangerous and even Luke can barely control it at times. He barely tends to use it, and even after he does he complains about horrible nightmares and terrible aching headaches.
- Deductive Deep Perception With this power, Luke is able to somehow calculate and predict what other people will say or do, so long as he focuses on it. Whilst this can help him extremely especially due to his tendency to move around the city using his skills with parkour, he is able to dodge enemy attacks and in some cases he can dodge bullets. The only downside to this, is Luke needs to be mentally focused on one task at a time. Meaning this perception can easily be thwarted if too many things are going on around him, as well as all this, he can only dodge certain guns such as handguns, rifles or shotguns rather than commonly used weapons such as machine guns or auto-rifles. This is because shotguns, handguns and rifles tend to shoot one round at a time, however with sub-machine guns or auto-rifles they shoot multiple bullets meaning it is almost impossible for him to dodge them. As well as this Luke is still grasping on how to master his perception and he rarely ever manages to dodge guns in the first place. Luke is also learning how to further use his perception to pick up on peoples body-language and emotions.
- Water After the incident, that had occurred during his near-death due to smoke inhalation, a certain power unlocked in Luke which was hidden away inside him for quite a long time. His control over water. Lukes body is genetically different to other people, this is why he possesses his super powers, and why only his sister (who shares his genes) shares the same powers. Yet Water is something that needs to be controlled and learnt, and Luke must learn how to fully control his water abilities in order to use them to aid him greatly. He can boil, freeze and control water, but he needs control in order to master this new-found skill.
Physical Description: Luke has an American nationality and seems to have an athletic body, however that is hard to tell from the clothes he tends to wear. He has deep brown eyes, yet they never seem to glisten when he smiles. as well as some stubble as well as having typical messy brown hair. His skin has a light tone, and he is quite tall. Luke tends to wear very dark clothes that contrast against some of the clean roofs of the city yet blend into the murky alleyways that lie beneath. Luke tends to wear a black fur hoodie with a two-button zipper, and black cargo pants and converse. Luke has a holster for a dagger attached to his cargo pants. Luke tends to wear a black bandanna that covers his mouth, to hide his identity.
Personality Description: Luke right now is in a very low place in his life. He acts quite bitter and shallow to many people around him, and will only do tasks as long as he's getting paid. He seems to have a tendency to busy himself with research. As he researches new technology, ways he can control it as well as trying to control and learn his own perception skills. He can be quite hot-headed yet mostly remains calm, as he manages to sometimes use his perception to pick up on a certain persons body-language to try and see the best angle to manipulate them. He's mentally unhealthy, cynical, bitter and yet he seems to have a few heartstrings here and there. It's just exposing them, that's the problem.
Backstory: Luke grew up in a mostly normal family, and he wanted to be an engineer. His mother stayed at home, mostly looking after him and his older sister Lilly, whilst his father owned a somewhat small company that moddeled and designed new cell-phones. They weren't very popular, but they managed to scrape enough money to put food on the table. When Luke was a young age, he could sense things. When his sister came home in a rush, he could tell she had broken up with yet another boyfriend. When he stared too long at the television, the screen seemed to become embodied with static before he was pulled out of it. Eventually his parents got nervous as his powers grew, and they knew something was wrong with him yet his sister tried to emphasise with him. He told his sister everything, he was as close as he could be with her and truly loved her as family.
However when Luke was 16, he was in a heated argument with his father which went bad as his father tried to get him to reveal he had powers. Luke himself truly didn't understand what was going on, yet he caused most of the technology in his house to simply eradicate itself, sending sparks flying everywhere and sometimes he could still hear his mothers piercing scream as she tried to beg him to stop. Soon he was kicked out of his home, and he stopped attending school. His sister moved out with him, and soon taught him everything. She had powers herself, and knew how to control them as she learned about them at an early age. She apologised and felt bad for not telling Luke, but she taught Luke everything. She taught him how to fight, how to control his powers, how to use his powers for things such as parkour. Luke seemed to become an expert, and things were fine for a couple years. Until Luke's 19th birthday.
See, Luke and Lilly were a duo and always went out what Lilly called "Their little hunts" as they moved fast and quickly to try and stop any criminals. Whether it was simple alleyway robberies, catching murderers, whatever. They never got any thanks or prize and they didn't want any, they kept in the shadows. However one time, a robbery went wrong. It was a trap set up by some type of villain to kill any heroes who got by.
What looked like an old lady getting her handbag robbed, turned out to be a whole platoon of guys cornering Lilly and Luke in an alleyway. Lilly managed to get Luke away however she was brutally injured and died as Luke tried to get her to safety. After that Luke realised he the anger in him come out, as he went out and murdered the villain who set up the whole plan. Ever since then he called himself the Hunter. He still uses Lillys dagger, but moved out and managed to gain the money to buy a horrible one room apartment. However it was his base of operations, and now it lead him to events that would possibly change or even end his life.

Created by Arbor117 Name: Jason Thompson Alias: Hammerfist Gender: Male Age: 19 Alignment: Neutral
Specialisations: - Strength Hammerfist is incredibly strong, able to puch through solid walls without effort. Due to the increase in muscle and bone density as cockatiel with this power, his resilience to phsyical impacts is greatly increased, allowing him to literally run through walls.
- Speed Tied into his strength, Hammerblow can also run and move with intense speed, which, when combined with his strength, makes him a devastating hand to hand combatant. He is able to reign massive blows in foes before they can react, and has the mobility to out-maneuver most opponents.
Physical Description: Jason stands 6'4", is well tanned and is physically very fit. His natural muscles make him look like an elite athlete, giving him a powerful frame that can easily appear intimidating. His face is clean shaven, square jawed and solid, his coal black hair is cut short and his eyes are blue. He is certainly attractive, and looks the part for his role as the muscle.
Personality Description: Slow, poorly educated and lacking in what most people would define as common sense, Jason is seen by most all no brains and all brawn. He has a simple, well meaning outlook on life that is often conflicted in the work he is forced to do. He is polite, social and gregarious, and enjoys being around people no matter who they are, so long as they're nice to him. However, his kindness is mared by a sense of practicality that will often leave him doing what he feels is best for himself and those he cares about, rather than what's best for the majority of people. Of given the choice between a greater good or helping someone he wants to protect, he will always chose the latter option. He is, nevertheless, a keen optimist.
Backstory: Jason's family is large and poor, living at the lowest rungs of Heartainian society. Most of his siblings were recruited into gangs in the youth, and he has lost three brothers and a sister already, to a mixture of violence and drug abuse. His father abbandoned the family when Jason was born, and most of his siblings were born from different men. His mother, a struggling alcoholic, died when he was eleven, leaving him and his older brothers to look after five younger siblings.
Jason began to develop his powers two years ago. At that point, he was the oldest left who hadn't already died or been seriously wounded. He was struggling to find any work, and was being drawn towards the gang work that had ruined so much of his family, unable to get hold of required medicine, pay the electricity or gas bills to keep his family alive, or even get steady supplies of food. The discovery of his abilities provided a real chance to make their loves better.
This is why a generally good hearted man is now working as a henchman for criminals the city over. It pays well, allowing Jason to get his family out of the ganglands and into safer areas of the city. He can send them to school, provide them with gifts and even hopes to fund his hard working younger twin siblings through university. He spends less and less time amongst them, trying to get as much money as he can from as many jobs as are availible, but despite his difficulty he feels it's for the best. He can no longer provide stability, being a wanted criminal as he is. All he can do is provide for them, even if it means sacrificing himself.
