This RP will take place in Dancing Penguin's Acadamy for Enhanced Humans. Basically, it's X-men style humans in High School. All characters for this RP should be High School age and have some kind of super-human ability. I don't mind if you blatenly rip off some TV character's powers but I do ask that you avoid repeating the powers of another character. Also, please have a weakness or drawback for your character's power. Everyone who participates may have one or two characters. I ask that you post your characters' stats here so that I can make sure they're not too powerful. Here are my characters as examples:

Name: Emily Smith
AKA: "Mundane"
Age: 14 (Freshman)
Ability: Emily's mind can emit a special brain wave that cause people to not notice her, giving new meaning to the term "hiding in plain sight."
Weakness/Drawback: Emily's power has no effect on anything without a brain, ie robots and other computer-guided things.

Name: Corby Black
AKA: "Lord Darkfist"
Age: 18 (Senior)
Ability: Corby can focus darkness into solid objects allowing him to create swords, shields, wings, ect.
Weakness/Drawback: Corby is substantially weakened by natural light.
Other Info: Corby is the leader of a rouge group of students called "Lord Darkfist's Raiders." They sneak out of the DPAEH complex from time to time and cause general mayhem in nearby towns.

I would really like it if someone else's character could organise a group of vigilante students to fight "Lord Darkfist's Raiders" over the course of the RP. Be creative with your character's abitities!

Also, if your a new player and/or a mediocer RPer, feel free to post anyway. I'm not gonna exclude you unless you absolutly horrible.

Hi! This is a character that I have used in the Celadrin thread: (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=357676&page=1&pp=15). I have Rp'd her as a 10 year old but would like to develop her character and work with her at an older age. Here are her stats:

Name: Sheyrena Rhys-Ane
Age: 16(sophomore/junior?)
Ability: Sheyrena has telepathic and telekinetic capabilities (think Professor X from XMEN) which include teleportation and limited mind control.
Weakness: When extremely emotional, Sheyrena loses the ability to focus her powers and may be unable to use them at all.

Name: Baslaj Foalc
Nickname: Metamorph
Age: 17(junior)
Sex: Male
Ability: Baslaj can transform into any animal that ever existed on earth that he chooses if he has seen it before and can picture it clearly.
Weakness: If Baslaj is not concentrating enough he cannot transform. Also, if he is interrupted while changing, he may change into a different form entirely. He cannot change into anything that has near intelligent thoughts or requires a microscope to see.
Background: When Baslaj was 3 years old, he went with his parents on a trip. The plane they were on crashed in the jungle. He survived but both his parents and the pilot died. Animals in the forest took him in. He understood the animals so well that he could easily communicate and mimic them. When he was 10, people from a logging company found him and took him as their own. The logging company used illegal methods to get the logs. They emittedlarge amounts of radiation to kill all the animals. The combined effect of the radiation and his pain for his friends triggered his first transformation. He enjoys animals and draws them in his free time.

I will definitely ask for a spot in this thread, but give me some time to think of a new character. None of the ones I have will fit in any way with the criteria you ask for.

Maybe, I'll even come up with the vigilante group you asked for, but I'm not sure.

Also, just so you know, I'm also in the thread "Ever the Hope of Many: The Celadrin Awaken". To be more specific, I'm the host for that thread. The link is given by Gorgamin above, and will also give you an idea of how I RP as well. Gorgamin also has my full stamp of approval in regards to her RPing.

Not very experienced, but I thought I might give it a try

Name: Paul Savannah
AKA: "Cheetah"
Age: 15
Ability: Extremely fast
Weakness/Drawback: Able to go so fast he can not react on obstacles in time to avoid them. His recklessness is not a big help combined with his power
Other Info: Trainee in the vigilante group (if it's gonna be there, otherwise just sabotaging what Lord Darkfist and his minions try to do)

i am new here, but this seems interesting.
i'm not sure how things go around this forum though, and i'm not sure how this goes. Any help?

Lak-xe, go look at the link given by Gorgamin and you'll see how RPing as characters basically goes. It's pretty simple actually, and easy to do.

Also, just so everyone knows I will be looking for good RPers to invite to my region 'Fatal Terrain' a region that is specifically for character RPers. Currently, we are 22 strong and looking for a more diverse following. So, please do your best or at least put in some effort and you very well might get an invite! I'd like to see you all in the region but first, I have to evaluate your RPing, based on the criteria that we've established for membership in the region.
***********************
I'm gonna take up the vigilante leadership, if you don't mind. But first, he's gonna be a loner, then someone can convince him to lead the group. Also, I'm gonna try for a harder persona to RP against enhanced beings... a character with no real powers, just a high resiliance to death, and a capable fighter. Think along the terms of "The Punisher" and you've got him in essence.

My character:

Name: Travis
Alias: "The Avenger"
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Abilities/powers: None
Weapons: Two Desert Eagles, military issue (stolen of course :P ), anything else he can find.
Background:

A lone character, Travis comes from a dark life. At the age of ten, he witnessed his parents and sister murdered in cold blood by a gang of Mafia members. At first, he fled for his life but was captured by the Mafia. They tortured and beat him to near death, in a way that only a full grown human would be able to endure. Yet, he survived, barely breathing, barely alive. Eventually, he returned to his home, and back to the room his family had been murdered in. Blood stains still covered the carpet, never to be cleaned. From that day forth, he swore to avenge his family's wrongful death. Despite his age, he proved to be a capable hunter of the murderers, and one by one over the next eight years, he killed each member with precision, and deadly effect. Fifteen men's blood were spilled in his rage. At the first one's death, he left a note, "Justice comes five times as much as the crime. (signed) The Avenger"

Now, he roams the world, with no place to call home. He is cold to the world, having forgotten what warmth came with love. To him, humanity had become a source of evil, of hatred. It spawned evil beings, whom committed deeds of dark nature. And it was Travis who enacted justice against them...

Name: Trey Falcnor
AKA: Flair
Age: 15 (Sophmore)
Ability:Can manipulate his body like a blob, forming all sorts of weapons with his hands. (Kind of like the bad guy from Terminator 2)

Other Info:A college drop-out from Chicago who was experimented upon by the government. Something went horribly wrong, and he was injectied with radioctive chrome that gave him his powers. The government tried to dispose of him, but Trey survived. He usally forms a guitar with his powers and uses it as a weapon, reminicing of his old days in his band. He took the name Flair, his former Stage Name, and now roams the world.

Name: Zhong Yuan (Note: Chinese name, so Last name first)
Alias: Aero
Age: 17 (Senior)
Height: 183 cm
Weight: 73 kg
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Black
Special Abilities/Skills: Flight, Swordfighting
Biography: Zhong Yuan was trained from birth in the art of swordfighting, excelling in the art of annilihating his opponents with lightning strikes of a hereditary sword. When he turned seventeen, Zhong Yuan inadvertently drank a potion that gave him the magical powers of flight. With trepidation, Zhong Yuan began his senior year, attempting to keep his powers hidden from view.

Name: Pat Beerd
AKA: Rebound
Age: 18
Ability: As a result of a voluntary science experiment, Rebound gained incredible upper and lower leg strength. He now can leap great distances, and run at above peak-human speeds.
Weakness/Drawback: Rebound has absolutely no other powers or abilities. Also, he is a naturally awkward and uncoordinated person.
BG: He was mostly a loner in school, and saw an online advertisement about this interesting, yet not officially approved (and probably illegal) "Enhancement Operation." He thought that being supernaturally strong or fast would make him more popular, but he was looked at as somewhat of a freak and eventually dropped out.
Other: As of now, his greatest horizontal leap was 98 feet. His greatest vertical leap was 22 feet. His fastest recorded mile-run was completed in 48 seconds. He usually dons tight-fitting blue jeans, a sleeveless T-shirt on which he wrote a really crappy-looking and off-centered "R" with a black Magic Marker, and a red cape bought from a costume shop that extends to his calves.

i have drawn a pic of him, i can put up a little later on.

27-10-2004, 03:35
Name: Alex Hawke
AKA: Tempest
Age: 17
Ablities: Can change the weather.
Drawbacks/Weaknesses: Can't do it for very long and can project his weather only a few meters away.

Bio: Alex was born born into an upper middle class family. Living in the suburbs of Alexandria in the heart of the Golden Simatar and got good grades in school, and was part of the science fiction and film club.
It wasn't until he noticed he could change the weather immeditatly around him, he used it once or twice to hit school bullies. Practicing whenever his parents were not at home he slowly began to get better, but could never do it for long than a few minutes at a time.

He stands out from most teens because whenever he isn't in class or doing something else, he has headsets on listening to Bruce Springsteen and reading books.

OK, two characters...
Nothing like this is complete without a fire wielder; since nobody else has claimed one, I will.
Name: Ben Darith
AKA Conflagration
Age: 15 (Sophmore)
Ability: He can do pretty much whatever he wants with fire.
This is a character I designed a while ago. When I first designed him, he also had the ability to shift into a "Conflagration" form: very large, very strong, bright red, and completely inhuman looking. For this, I'll leave that part of his powers out.
Weakness: His powers are hard to control, and he would rather die then use them wildly, so he is limited to what he can keep under control. Also, manipulating fire is tiring. He is much weaker in wet conditions.

Something of a loner, he has never fit in well with society. He feels a great deal of sympathy for anyone he perceives as being "picked on" and has a strong sense of right and wrong, and will probably end up joining the vigilantes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Name: Arthur Korendral
AKA The Artist, Art
Age: 17 (Junior)
Ability: A highly skilled artist, Arthur can concentrate on his work and make it temporarily real. Ex: he can draw a knife on a sheet of paper and use it in a fight, or walk through a door he painted on the wall. He controls how real it becomes, as well- he can make a door that feels real, but is just illusion.
By drawing on himself, he can give himself limited alternate abilities- claws like Wolverine's (except less painful) or any other fairly minor modifications he can draw.
Weakness: He can only use his power on one item at a time, and it has to be his artwork. The better the piece of art, the easier it is to maintain, but (at this time) he ccan never use more than one at once. It also requires a certain amount of concentration.

Arthur would almost certainly become one of the Raiders. He has a long history of causing trouble, and feels nothing but scorn for "ordinary" humans. He's rather arrogant, and likes being admired, but he realizes that he is not a good leader.

Do those two seem all right? I'll be happy to answer questions about them.
Dancing Penguin
27-10-2004, 04:47
Okay, looked over your characters. A couple small issues, but here's what I
got:

Sheyrena Rhys-Ane: IN. She's a teenager who's powers are weakend by emotion? That should be interesting...

Baslaj Foalc: IN

Paul Savannah: IN. Don't worry about it, when I said horrible I ment absolutly, can't-string-a-sentence-together noob horible. I'm sure you'll do fine!

Travis: OUT. Well, there's a couple issues here. If you read the opening, this takes place in a high school. Ignoring the fact that this character would be out of high school, they wouldn't let him carry around his guns.

Trey Falcnor: IN...ish. Very close to Darkfist and I REALLY don't want repeats. If your dead set on him, go ahead and use him, otherwise I would like a differnt power.

Zhong Yuan: IN. Would you mind if he became a right-hand man for Darkfist?

Pat Beerd: UNDECIDED. You over-lap Paul Savannah's power here and I REALLY don't want repeats. I don't what to do about it unless Legless Pirates wants to make a new character...

Alex Hawke: Out. Sorry, but you repeat Sheyrena Rhys-Ane's telekinessis and I REALLY don't want repeats.

Ben Darith: IN. You're right, wouldn't be complete with out a pyrokinetic and his powers are just vauge enough to work! (All jokes aside, if you could give me a basic idea of what "whatever he want with fire" means, that'd be great)

Arthur Korendral: IN. Oh yea, he's definatly a raider. Darkfist would like him.

If this list adjitates anyone, I ask that you keep civil fingers when you reply. I have no ill will toword anyone and am judging the characters based on my own guidlines. Legless Pirates? If you don't mind changing your character it would make things much easier. Unless Lak-xe is willing to change his, of course.

If your character made it in, congratulations! You could propose a second character or just chill until we get enough characters to start. If yours didn't, you have two options: tweek your character or make a new one.

Again, sorry if anyone's pissed off.
Tarlachia
27-10-2004, 05:55
I understand what you're saying about my character, however, I'd like to keep him as he is, background wise. However, I will, for the sake of this thread get rid of the guns, and just have him capable of using the surroundings to his advantages, whatever they may be. Also, I just want to state that although I had him at age 19, in a way it is still possible for him to be still in high school for any number of reasons. Heck, personally, I was 19 yrs old at the end of my senior year (long story, ask me about it another time). However, for the sake of this thread, I will drop his age to say...16 or 17?

If you want, I can alter my character to include an ability to manipulate water as he sees fit. He can also "become one" with the water, in the sense that his physical form will take on the appearance of water. His obvious weakness would be of the water's evaporation factor. When water is not nearby for him to manipulate, he will revert to his natural ability to just survive fights and defy death.

Also, his nickname will be changed to "The Waterboy" (yes a blatant ripoff of the movie lol)

In fact, I'm gonna say I'd like him to be like that. This ok enough for you?
Violets and Kitties
27-10-2004, 10:43
Name: Mika Lidstrom
AKA: Ghost
Age: 16 (junior)
Ability: Mika has the ablilty to turn herself and any non-living objects that she is able to carry incorpreal. While in this state she is able to pass, see and hear through solid objects although the perceptions are very hazy (like seeing in the dark or trying to listen over static). Likewise objects are able to pass through her while she is in this state, making her temporarily impervious to physical attack. While incorpreal she still appears "normal" to regular senses.
Weakness: Mika cannot breathe while in incorpreal form although her body still requires oxygen, and thus can only stay in that form only for as long as she is able to hold her breath. If for some reason she passes out her body immediately reverts to its solid form.
Legless Pirates
27-10-2004, 14:12
I'll change my character.

Name: Paul Savannah
AKA: The Ant
Age: 15
Powers: Heavy lifting, climbing walls, digging tunnels (the usual ant stuff) and spraying acid from his mouth. With the acid he can eat through very tough materials (concrete, steel). Naturally he has a great resistance to acids.
Weakness: Fear of water and fire

As a little boy he grew up in a forest infested with ants, but Paul did not care much fo them. Often torturing them and destroying their anthills.
One day he was in the forest climbing an anthill, when the thing collapsed. He got attacked by so many ants, his veins were vitually running with acid. The acid awoke the Ant in him.

In the school Paul is very suspicious of Lord Dakfist and his minions so he keeps a close eye on them, but is afraid to take them on alone.

Okay, here's the new list:

Sheyrena Rhys-Ane: IN.

Baslaj Foalc: IN.

Paul Savannah: IN. Heh, heh, interesting.

Travis: IN. Thank you for changing him.

Trey Falcnor: OUT. I thought about it and decided that I don't want him because he's so close to Darkfist.

Zhong Yuan: IN. Understood.

Pat Beerd: IN. Thanks to Legless Pirates you are no longer a repeat.

Alex Hawke: Out. Sorry, but you repeat Sheyrena Rhys-Ane's telekinessis and I REALLY don't want repeats.

Ben Darith: IN.

Arthur Korendral: IN.

Again, if this list adjitates anyone, I ask that you keep civil fingers when you reply. I have no ill will toword anyone and am judging the characters based on my own guidlines.

DP,

I'm perfectly cool with your choice. Can you hold a spot for me and let me tweak Alex a bit?

Dancing Penguin
27-10-2004, 23:05
All right, now I think it's time we shaped the plot:

Location: There are a few things you should know about Dancing Penguin. It is a semi-future nation which is run by the penguins that acount for one fourth of its population. This upper class enforces strict moral codes on themselves and the rest of the populus. In order to make sure these codes are followed, the penguins watch every part of daily life. The DPAEH, however, is free from penguin regulation as there are students from other nations as well.

The DPAEH is a massive K-12 complex. The K-8 portion lies just beyond the border fence so that parents can come and go with their childern. Beyond the K-8 building is a small, well-patrolled, inner fence. Inside the fence is the three-story high school, two either side the tall structures that serve as boy and girl dormatories.

Back Story: Last year, a Senior calling himself "Lord Earthtide" and a group of his budies terrorized the school. Calling themselves "Lord Earthtide's Raiders," they attacked teacher and student alike in an effort to "fight the oppressive slave drivers." The group was exclusivly Seniors, but a Junior aproached them for membership anyway. Earthtide called for an anitiation to see if the boy was good enough. After one of the raiders was sent to the infermary with broken ribs, Earthtide made the kid his second in comand, naming him "Darkfist." At the end of that year, Earthtide suprized everyone by joining the Ethic Enforcers. Feeling that Earthtide had betrayed him by becoming what they had fought, Darkfist decided that next year he would start his own raiders and attack the surrounding towns. He studied the school furiously over the break and discovered that, if he was going to strike outside the school, he was going to need someone who could sneak past the guards and open the front gate. Now, it is the beginning of a new year and a new faceless principal who specializes with problem students takes control of DPAEH as the means for Darkfist's plan arrives in the form of a freshman named Emily...

Foes: Besides fighting amung ourselves, we will face the new principle in the school and the Ethic Enforcers when we're out of the school. The Ethic Enforcers are the police of the penguin upper class. Their ranks include humans, penguin-driven mechs, and an assortment of other fun surprizes. Part of their weaponry is the Sonic Splitter, a tuning fork looking prod that will incapacitate anything that hears the sound it emits. The Enforcers wear helmets that block out this signal.

May I know what sort of "attacks" the dudes from Lord Earthtide did?
Dancing Penguin
28-10-2004, 14:45
They struck quickly in seemingly random places and times. They scattered before anyone who could deal with them showed up. It was all minor injuries on their targets, very rarly was anyone serously hurt. Extensive propty damage, though.

28-10-2004, 15:59
And why? Because the wanted to fight the penguin egime, or what?
Dancing Penguin
28-10-2004, 19:44
The school is almost a prison: you can't leave the campus unless you go through a rigorous process. Lord Earthtide was trying to scare the administration into relaxing their harsh rules. When he joined the Enforcers Darkfist felt like it was the same as supporting the administration which they had fought.

DP, since I tweaked my character, can I RP when this thing starts?
Violets and Kitties
28-10-2004, 22:51
I think Mika would almost definitely try to join the Raiders as a matter of moral principle. Due to the culture of the nation in which she was raised, she has a very strong belief that personal freedom must be protected at any cost, even if it means breaking rules and working to teardown oppressive power structures.
Dancing Penguin
28-10-2004, 22:51
Oh, that's right, Golden! You did your character via telegram! That's why the post I was waiting for from you wasn't coming! It's almost dinner time now, so I'll create the thread soon.

Can I still get in?

Name: Alex Vambery
AKA: "Tazer"
Age: 18
Ability: Can control/manipulate and to a limited degree create Energy (Power/lightning/electricity).
Weakness/Drawback: Takes a lot out of him to create Energy, so without a power socket, or a power line, he can become exhausted rather fast. He also has some problem with controlling his powers. And is afraid of large bodies of water.
The Devaryn Portal
29-10-2004, 04:33
You'd be well advised to change your character a bit. That's close to a repeat of one of the earlier one's powers, and I get the impression DP is firmly opposed to any overlap.
Kharrol
29-10-2004, 06:40
Ben Darith: IN. You're right, wouldn't be complete with out a pyrokinetic and his powers are just vauge enough to work! (All jokes aside, if you could give me a basic idea of what "whatever he want with fire" means, that'd be great)

Arthur Korendral: IN. Oh yea, he's definatly a raider. Darkfist would like him.

Thanks, I'm glad you like my characters. Sorry about the delayed reply; I didn't notice your edit at first.
OK, let's see... some details about Ben's powers...
I haven't really thought of a specific definition of what they are, but here's a few cans and can'ts. If you've got anything in particular you want to know, ask here or by TG.
He can: ignite and extinguish fires, encourage and suppress them, control what they do and don't burn, and manipulate their motion. Of course, he cannot be harmed by fire. He is capable of maintaining a flame without fuel, but this takes so much concentration that he can't do much with it.
He can't: form it into solid objects (unless you want him to learn how over the course of the RP; a sword fight between him and Lord Darkfist might be a cool scene...), use it for transportation, summon 133T UBER-flame elementals to do his bidding, spy through it, or do anything else that doesn't make fairly obvious sense for a pyrokinetic.
I'm perfectly happy to fine tune his abilities to fit what you're looking for.

Orders of Crusaders
29-10-2004, 14:06
Now this is interesting....Can I join in still? Here's me char:

Name: Eoin Celtica
AKA: "Dark Knight"
Age: 17
Ability: The ability to change into a single creature, which resembles that of a firey demon. Skin hardens and begins to flame and blacken like molten rock. The creature has only two real advantages, enhanced strength and the ability to manipulate molten rock or lava.

Weakness: Very weak to a power of light or a holy power when transformed. Cannot enter any holy ground unless something of evil is already there when transformed.

Other Info: Can be short tempered, and tad too aggressive at times. Is really neither good nor evil, but follows a middle road that at times might lean towards the badside. Is more so out for himself, and a few select others he respects or the few he considers to be friend. A loyal and trustworthy friend, but a deviant enemy....
Hair: Dark Brown
Eyes: Dark green with even darker red lines...
Height: 6 foot

Orders of Crusaders, you're doing exactly what Dancing Penguins didn't want anyone to do, and that is duplicate the powers of others that already have accepted characters. For example, my character is the only one who can manipulate water. Up until you posted, this was uncontested, and accepted.

I suggest you change your stats to something that hasn't been "reserved" for other characters. Otherwise, it's a surefire way to get yourself rejected because of the above stated reasons.

If I'm not mistaken, fire and water are already taken, so you'll have to choose one of the other two elements. Having two elementals is rather godmoddish, and makes your character too strong. I suggest choosing one of the two, and stick with that. Just to make sure, you better check back and see if anyone else has already claimed and been accepted for "air" or "earth".

I urge you to take my advice, as I've seen the reaction on similar instances already from Dancing Penguins.

Just so there's no confusion:

Paul Savannah
Travis
Zhong Yuan
Pat Beerd
Alex Hawke
Ben Darith
Arthur Korendral
Mika Lidstrom
Alex Vambery
Eoin Celtica

OUT:

This is the final list. I will not check this thread anymore. Any further questons should be Telegramed or put on the new thread (try to avoid putting it there, though)

Woo! Fourteen characters! I'm psyched! A few last minute things:

1. If anyone has a freshman girl character, feel free to room with Emily. (I wouldn't advise trying to room with Darkfist, however)
2. I figured out how the flame-sword could work: is flame boy initially joins the raiders, but drops out and joins the vigilantes after the first raid.
3. The vigilantes will not form until after the first raid.

Now that you've heard me ramble, post your character's arival...

Oh yea, you'll need the thread...
