IC: It was funny, when you thought about it.
The Superhero.
People who have abilities which elevate them above the common cattle that make up the Human race. People who, if they chose to, to destroy everything. Cities. Lives. Civilisation. The planet. But...
They don't.
And I have never understood this.
These people protect those who praise the 'superhero' out of mixed fear and admiration, knowing that the 'hero' could at any moment turn and kill each and every single one of them. And yet the hero remains a hero knowing that, given the chance, most of the people they save would kill them if they had half a wit about them. Luckily, most don't.
And that is why this sickening plague continues. Ravages the Earth, which should rightfully be mine. And it will be mine.
But first, I must clean the maggots from the wound.
Heh.
I say, I.

A few years ago, a multitude of things happened, the best-known of them being the chaos in Los Angele's Airport. Terrorists hijacked a plane headed for Tokyo, and it was only for the quick reactions of the National Guard that disaster was averted.
That was the official story, and it is widely beleived.
In fact, the only people who even know the strange truth are a specialist division of the UN. The Strategic Hazard Intervention, Espionage Logistics Directorate is reponsible for monitoring all meta-human activity worldwide. After the banishment of the Monad, and the scattering of the Elemental Gems, they have their hands full. Most of the objects, each one capable of controlling it's colored element, are hidden in the secret places of the world. A few have found their way into the hands of less-than-scrupulous private collectors, and one has found it's way into the S.H.I.E.L.D vault. They intend to give it some company.
Each of the gems has the capability to destroy the world. Luckily, most people think of them as pretty baubles. Even S.H.I.E.L.D does not know the extent of their power, only that they are dangerous. If they fell into the wrong hands, chaos could ensue.

OOC: A semi-continuation of the story of this (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=550937) thread.
Essentially, the Monad was killed and 5 gems (Tornado[wind], Earthquake[earth], Rapture[Ether, the most powerful gem], Angelfire[flame], Torrent[water]) with control elements were scattered around the world. SHIELD was established to monitor supernatural activity and fight back. We RP superheroes (Huuurr derp derp derp) doing their superheroic thang. Eventually, SHIELD happen to find a gem and... We take it from there.
Character template/EG:
Name/Alias: Orin
Age: 19
Appearance(Picture if possible): A black outfit with a red hooded cloak and a scar across her throat.
Powers/Skills: Telekinesis , flight, transformation (this isn't voluntary, it happens when she reaches a state of anger or fear), limited teleportation (to and from the Chateau de Mort, the Reaper's home base)
History: Orin does not remember much of her past. This is not due to her being a reaper, as such, more to do with her being a reaper for the past 900 years. The earliest she can remember is being in her home town, a small fishing village, when a band of brigands came through on a raid. After that, she remembers waking up on a cold stone slab inside the Chateau de Mort, and has been a reaper ever since.

History: Angeline faught along side Julia during the battle at heavens gates under ST. Peter and was praised highly aferwards and offered sainthood afterwards, as were many in her battalion, she declined.

She has rarely visited earth but when she has she's been in the middle of something big and only missed out on the battle with the monad because she was busy in south America helping the souls lost in a fire at an orphange that missed American news only becuase of the 'terrorist attack'.

History: Eudokia is half human, half palindrim. (A palindrim is a non-human similar in appearance to an human, but with heightened senses and generally much more powerful and supernatural then humans, but are easily drunk. They are also the original natives of Amalius.) Eudokia was raised on the outskirts of Amalius, by the palindrims, and she never knew the names or faces of her parents.

At the age of 10 she had been taken away, and never seen again, her parents thought her dead.
She was kidnapped by a group of Mages that knew she was special. she had been erased of her childhood memories and trained in the magical arts by the Mages.

Essentially, the Monad was still killed. Instead of The Metal Man (if DS doesn't mind) getting the gems, they got scattered around the world. The gems have an awfully lot of power (such as in the third one, the daemon that had Earthquake created a solid dome of stone around the city) so they're an object of desire for most factions. However, Doomsday hasn't happened in this thread. Yet anyway. :D

Aye, I sent Xis and Dastardly Stench a TG with the link to this yesterday, as well as. I'll have the IC up within the week fer sure, either tomorrow or Wednesday most likely. Also, when the IC is up, you can still sign up whenever. With the possible exception of when the thread is over. ;)

There was a short-lived sequel thread. In it, I had TMM being the one who got the gems after the Monad was defeated, and he was the one who scattered them. Do you still want this to be the case? (IMHO, this would be a GOOD thing, as it would set up a mutual distrust between TMM and SHIELD. ;) )

Aye, aye, hold your horses you lot, some of us aren't online as often as we'd like.

Now for the good stuff:

Name/Alias: Abaddon (no last name known)
Age: Roughly a billion years, give or take a few million
Appearance(Picture if possible): Abaddon (http://thefunnybunny.deviantart.com/art/Anthony-J-Crowley-83990140)
Powers/Skills: Immortal (cannot be permanently killed, though can be sent back to Hell if enough damage is suffered), teleportation, telekinesis (why not, everyone else has it), can summon imps and minor demons to do his bidding, has mastery over fire (but seeks Angelfire to complete his power), has proficiency with firearms (though he finds them distasteful) and bladed weapons, and excellent hand-to-hand combat skills.
History: Abaddon is a fallen angel, or demon, who did not so much fall from Heaven as saunter sullenly downward. While content to do Lucifer's bidding for a while, Abaddon has grown disillusioned with his work and now seeks to get back into the good graces of the Allmighty, while also keeping Satan pleased so as not to arouse suspicion before he can secure passage to Heaven. Cynical but relaxed, Abaddon has thrived in the modern world, although sometimes misses the old days a few thousand years ago. Once met Jesus and had the pleasure of being thrown out of a human along with a host of other spirits, and spent several days at the bottom of a river stuck in the bloated carcass of a dead pig, which started his doubts.


Name/Alias: Nadoka White
Age: 23
Appearance(Picture if possible): Angel form without wings (http://schumix.deviantart.com/art/Chika-again-36890740) Alternate form (http://sinslave.deviantart.com/art/Angel-of-Death-AKA-Grim-Reaper-31297134)
Powers/Skills: Is the Angel of Death, can cause instant death on small non-sentient lifeforms, possesses the power of flight, can alternate between angel and Reaper forms, can summon a black horse and rapier at will, possesses the power of invisibility and can take life force to empower herself.
History: Nadoka White is the fourth Angel of the Apocalypse, chosen at birth by God Himself to carry the mantle of destroying the world when the time comes. She has been hunted by demons who seek her death all her life, protected only by her brother, Seth White, who gained control of demonic powers by the assistance of an old mystic. Seth has since been killed by the Devil, and his soul now hangs between Heaven and Hell to be judged for his sins. Nadoka has since ascended to Heaven and received angelic powers, but her time has not yet come to carry out her duty, and for the interval she takes interest in what happens on Earth.

Pics coming once I find good ones.

Okay, disregard that. After confirmation from the mods, I'll be creating an offsite now.

Damn. How come?

Damn. How come?

Well, I made it before getting permission :$, setting it in one of my cities to get it NS friendly. Wasn't friendly enough, so I'm making an offsite. Shouldn't take too long.

Okay, lovely.
Offsite is up. (http://goodthingshappen.rpgforums.ws)

I'm going to hold off on posting for a few days. This is because I'm assuming that TMM is accepted for this thread and that I don't need to repost his bio. If this is not the case, let me know and I'll repost the bio. IF YOU WANT ME TO REPOST THE BIO, LET ME KNOW ASAP, PLEASE.

In an earlier post, I mentioned that there was an earlier version of this thread. In it, TMM ended up with the gems. He forged each into the pommel of a sword of some kind, and proceeded to distribute them among the different races. One went to the Angels, one to the Hellspawn, one to the half-vampires (forgot the name used in the thread), one to the Humans and one he kept for himself. Do we want to do some variant on this in this thread (for the SECOND TIME)?

I believe VT said the gems have been scattered, but you'd have to talk to him about that. I'm fine with it either way, if the hellspawn have one of the gems I could easily have it be Angelfire, thus putting it in Abaddon's hands without the fuss of him having to steal it from somebody.

Will post ASAP, between tonight and sometime Thursday.

The point is that they are scattered--not geographically, but among the different races of the thread. I'd like to change this, though. I'd like TMM not to keep one for himself.

So would I, I belive thats what VT was trying to imply, the geographicle way was what he ment thoe. If not sheild would just have to ask the diferent races.

OK. We'll go with geographical.

Just one question: why wouldn't shield ask TMM where he put them?

good question.... but lets face it thats a pretty boring rp:
"WE MUST FIND TEH GEMS OV DOOMZ!"
"Well.. I kinda scattered em.."
"DEN SHOW UZ LULUL!!"

would be about the general extent of it.

That's why I'm putting TMM on the run. They're using the murder rap that was falsely pinned on him in Germany.

He's running because he believes that, if he's caught, he'll never make it to trial. He thinks they'll turn him into a lab sample instead. He just might be right.

Due to the amount of RPs I'm already engaged in, combined with the shitstorm that is RL, I'm afraid I won't be able enter this RP. Sorry, and good luck with the it. Until next time, gents. *tips hat*
