    Dar Bal Gurrv

    Aliases: Bond-Brother Bal

    Gender: Not applicable.

    Race/Species: Mgalekgolo, or 'Hunters' as the humans call them.

    Age: Since Dar's first body conglomerated, it has been about 52 human years.

    Alignment: Neutral Good/True Neutral

    Class/Profession: Tank. No, not the party tank. He's literally a walking tank.

    Power Rating: B/low B+

    Description: One of these:

    Spoiler
    Show


    Essentially, a twelve foot tall, hulking mass of orange worms that forms a single monstrous humanoid. This creature then solidifies itself and dons nice, shiny power armor. This armor is jagged, decorated with alien symbols, and plated in many places. Long, deadly spikes cover the creature's back. However, a couple openings allow for vulnerable spots, but also give the creature more mobility.

    It's head is simply a lump of worms covered in a curving, bowl-like metal helmet. One lower arm of the power armor consists of a multi-faceted Assault cannon, covered in small green pods that serve as the weapon's powersource.

    The other lower arm is elongated into a metallic shield-like protrusion, ornate, nigh-impenetrable and capable of being used as a powerful melee weapon.

    Dar's voice is a low, vibrating sound, reverberating through ones ears, and perhaps one's very mind, as he speaks.

    Personality: The creature has a sort of dual personality, almost like it's lost Bond-Brother lives on inside it.

    In his normal state, Dar is quiet, contemplative, and slow to act. He enjoys poetry, music, singing, and reading, and in his spare time will also stop to meditate. About what, you'll just have to ask. In fact, he likes solitude so much, sometimes you can annoy him simply by speaking.

    In a more active state, he becomes blunt, quicker to anger, and more aggressive. He enjoys battle to some extent, like the rest of his caste, perhaps even giving an audible chuckle when crushing an enemy beneath his massive boot.

    Dar switches between these states at random, sometimes. He could be ripping a monster apart with his bare hands, and then suddenly stop to think about his actions and recite war poetry.

    Equipment:

    -Mgalekgolo Power Armor
    -Assault Cannon
    -Shield-Club

    Abilities:

    -Awe-inspiring alien strength and flowing combat abilities.
    -A knowledge of strategy and tactics.
    -High accuracy with his assault cannon, which fires massive, streaking globules of glowing green energy. It has an alternate firing mode as well, which sprays streams of green, radioactive incendiary gel.
    -Surprising grace and bursts of speed when enraged.
    -The ability to eat minerals and weaker metals.
    -The ability to leave his power armor and bond with some machinery.

    Weaknesses:

    -No experience with magic whatsoever.
    -Sometimes random switches between passive and wrathful states.
    -Gaps in his armor, which become more vulnerable while making big attacks.
    -Vulnerability to mind affecting things, which tend to 'sear' his collective consciousness.

    Backstory: Forced into the service of the theocratic Covenant, like others of his race, Dar sought only to do his duty and return home. Though battle was fun sometimes, most of the humans proved weak enemies, and he missed his clan. The only personal comfort he had was his Bond Brother Teek, and the two often confided in eachother for long hours aboard strange cruisers.

    The two fought side by side up until the Covenant Civil War, where they sought to side with the Humans and battle for their race's freedom. Unfortunately, Teek was lost when multiple Jiralhanae (what the humans call 'Brutes') opened fire with their ballistic weapons.

    From the flank, Dar still managed to slaughter the lot of them, but only with Teek's sacrifice. Dar raged off into the forests of the world on which they fought, anger overcoming him.

    Unknowingly, he's now passed into the Nexus. What wonders await him here?

    Smaragdos


    Alias: The Emerald Wizard. Scion of the Order of the Eternal Yew.
    Gender: Male.
    Race/Species: Human.
    Age: 30s-40s range.
    Alignment: Lawful Neutral.
    Class/Profession: Wizard or Magi.
    Power Rating: B or 5. He has powerful magic, but, like the usual wizard, is going to get stomped by a physical enemy if he's surprised.
    Description: Fairly scrawny, with the typical physique you'd expect from a mage. His complexion is rather pale, having gotten little sun in his tower. He wears an emerald colored robe with black hems and embroidered runes. He has black hair and dark green eyes.
    Personality: Smaragdos enjoys learning new things, especially about magic. He's willing to engage in practices of questionable ethics, but will shy away from outright Evil. He is very organized and orderly, and he strongly believes in following structured rules, be it a daily routine, alphabetizing tomes, using scientific rigor in experiments, or tapping seven times when he's exceptionally nervous.
    Equipment: Smaragdos has a knapsack of the usual traveling items he carries magically, a pouch inside his robe filled with spell components, his main spellbook and a few other mystical and esoteric tomes. He also has an anti-magic dagger, which can hurt Deities.
    Abilities: Smaragdos can cast a variety of spells. The one area of wizardry he has problems with is potion brewing. He hasn't had a chance to really use many spells, yet, but he has shown the power to launch a small lance of emerald light (like a laser, pew pew!) which can penetrate ordinary armor.
    Backstory: Very recently, Smaragdos appeared in the Nexus after fleeing the destruction of his Wizard Tower he shared with several other magi. He claims to be the sole survivor of the Order of the Eternal Yew, but has not yet shared the details of this tragedy.
    Miscellaneous: Nothing yet.

    Fin Staton

    Alias: That crazy guy, You (As in: 'WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!')
    Gender: Male
    Race/Species: Predominately human.
    Age: 25
    Alignment: Chaotic Good
    Class: Jack of all Trades
    Description: He wears serviceable blue trousers over his legs, which are thin and vaguely muscled. He has a white shirt underneath his Jacket. It's a brown one, made out of a vaguely sturdy material.

    He wears a cocky grin on his face, which is topped with messy black hair. Around is neck is a thin length of adamantine chain, which at first glance appears to be a thin rope. It leads down underneath his shirt and Jacket.
    Equipment/Abilities: I'm gonna break this down into a list.

    The vial: There's a tiny vial around his neck, made of the strongest glass possible through technological means, and enhanced by near epic-level magic. It contains a few drops of water from the only wishing well in existence that works.

    The Gloves of Shiva, Ice-God of Death: Simple gloves made of black leather with an ice-blue rune on the back of each. When they are put on, the wearer is momentarily possessed by Shiva, before a fist of ice forms around the gloves and the possession ceases. Allows some degree of control over ice and cold, as well as making it hurt a lot to be punched. Ownership of these gloves technically makes Fin the high-priest of Shiva.

    The Hammer of Arix, Fire-God of Death: A large, two-handed war-hammer, resplendent in steel, with a fiery-red rune on both sides of the head. When wielded, the bearer is momentarily possessed by Arix, before the hammer is enveloped in flame, and the possession ceases. Allows some degree of control over flame and heat, and is also a flaming war-hammer. Ownership of this hammer technically makes Fin the high-priest of Arix. Cannot be used with the gloves of Shiva.

    The powerfist: This powerfist has been imbued with positive energy. Unfortunately, due to the cleric who made it being a tit, the only way to heal someone with this glove is to punch them with it, shaking the positive energy off of it onto the person.

    Some would call this impractical.

    Rocket boots!: Can I just leave this? I don't think you guys need any explanation. Fin's quite terrible with them.

    The curse of unnecessary pencils: He will be practically overflowing with pencils when he needs to write nothing down and doesn't want a pencil, but the second these would become useful he can't find a single one. A witch got annoyed at him one time, long story.

    The boomerang gun: A specially designed pistol that fires inch-long, bladed boomerangs at the target. Quite easy to aim, and to shoot, very hard to avoid killing yourself with.

    Portal gun: The blue/orange portal firing gun. It jammed years ago, and is inoperable. Still, he keeps it around in the hopes that someone can fix it.

    Minor arcane abilities: He can cast a few small spells, flare, unlock, etc. He needs a spellbook and time before he can cast anything better.

    Minor combat abilities: If it's a weapon, he can probably use it badly, and even has a bit of experience hand-to-hand. Probably won't be winning many fights though.

    Technological aptitude: He can probably fix something, given enough time to tinker with it. By no means a guaranteed thing, though.

    Dimensional Travel: He's quite good at traversing dimensions.

    Ted: He has a tiny mechanical spider, named Ted. Ted can walk on walls/ceilings/floors.

    Possibly some other things: But I've forgotten them.

    All the items are stored in a pocket dimensions that can be accessed through the two pockets on his Jacket.

    Backstory: An orphan from an early age, he left the Nexus when he was ten, having wonderful adventures in other dimensions, and gathering the various artifacts and the information his Jacket and head now hold, respectively. Came back to the Nexus for reasons known only to him.

    Name: Anatolij Fedorowicz Eliaszeńko
    Gender: Male
    Race: Human
    Profession: Soldier
    Age: 30
    Power level: C
    Description: Anatolij is a muscular but surprisingly short man with fair skin that's nonetheless weather-beaten. His head is bald, apart from a single strand of hair on the top and he wears a long, thin moustache. His eyes are gray and narrow. He's got some combat-induced scars here and there. When not wearing his armor - which is Remnant's Basic Powered Armor Type One (AT-01) - he tends to appear in drab, simple and practical clothes.
    Personality: Despite his training and combat experience, Anatolij is still a gentle soul at heart and remembers being a no-respect pushover. He tends to try to help those in need if it doesn't interfere with his orders. His conscience and compassion get the better of him at times. In off-duty situations, he tends to be amiable and friendly. He's got a pecuilar quirk, however - when dealing with people on Remnant business, he likes to pretend he's a dumb soldier with no initiative on his own to lull them into a false sense of security.
    Equipment: Remnant's Basic Powered Armor Type One, a cavalry sabre which can be super-heated with a switch, combat knife with a taser function, heavy handgun, Remnant attack bike.
    Abilities: Anatolij recieved the full training in Mortal Coil in the days of the empire, making him a very dangerous soldier. He's an expert hand-to-hand combatant with a sabre, which he uses either alone or paired up with the combat knife or the handgun. He's also a good shot with the gun and a highly experienced at driving his attack bike in all situations, including combat.
    Backstory: Anatolij was born in year 1624 in a small village in Ukraine. As a Cossack, he always wanted to be like those nigh-legendary warlords who threatened the Commonwealth itself. But the harsh reality was that he wasn't a very good fighter and couldn't even hold his liquor. His bleak life changed when, while riding alone thorough the steppe, he found himself near Taverna Generica in the Nexus. After some ups and downs, he joined the Mortal Coil, an elite unit of the Empire and stuck with them after the Empire's fall.

    Haruki


    Name: Haruki, Archangel of the Blue Moon.
    Race: Angel
    Gender: Male
    Class: Non-D&D.
    Alignment: Chaotic Good
    Affiliation: The Cat's Guild
    Age: ???
    Power Level:A / 8
    Default Appearance: Tall, light-skinned, blue-eyed Angel with long silver-white hair, white wings golden Halo. Muscular body. Wears blue clothes and a white scarf, as well as Hermes Boots and Angel bracers. Occasionally changes clothes to fit the situation.
    Special Abilities: Superhuman strength, speed and agility, flight, Healing, Holy magic. His touch is harmful to the undead.
    Weapon of Choice: Sword, name: Mugetsu.
    Weaknesses: Not particularly stupid, but not that smart, either. Reckless and impulsive. Fails to consider consequences alot.
    Background: Haruki is the son of Selene, the Goddess of the Moon, and her guardian, the Archangel Seraphim. He was sent to the mortal world, as many Angels are, to keep watch and fight evil. He does this by living with the evil and trying to control it from within. Since he doesn't really mind, and the AMENites don't seem to care either, nobody is really complaining about it.

    In newer developments, he has abandoned the Evil Organization and is now working separately by forming a new faction. Haruki is currently a "member" of Watchtower of sorts. He works alone most of the time.

    Alias: Known only as The puppet master.

    Sex: Male

    Age: Unknown

    Alignment: Lawful evil

    Class: Puppeter

    Power level: his body is only able to push low C but his puppets are much stronger and can be any where from low D's to high A's.

    Description: a average hieght for a human Male but he wears all black suit and a large cape the outer of the cape is black but the inards is a sily red. he also has a dark hood covering all of his face in darkness. from what you can see of his face it is mostly skeleton and slightly wooden, making it seem that he could also be a puppet himself...

    Personality: The puppet master talks freely to those who are as evil as him but despizes good and chaos and will have nothing to do with them.

    Equipment: the puppet master has no visible items with him. but in his dark cloak he has a untold number of puppets and strings. also he has a few old parchments and a quill and ink.

    Abilitys: The puppet master has the ability to manipulate puppets and darkness. he can control puppets to do his bidding and also can use puppet strings to attempt to take control of his enemys. he also has abilitys to control darkness such as making illusions of himself and making portals in the dark that can make enemys wander around in circles.one of his main puppets is the puppet of the copy cat it morphs it self to look slightly like its enemy or anything else and can use the abilitys that its enemy would have.
    another is the puppet of darkness. when this puppet is in darkness it appears to be a massive beast that moves around on its hind legs, witch can manipulate darkness as the master can. another is his standered puppet it has a all wooden body witch has the rough resemblence to a human although the puppet is only 2 feet tall. each puppet is very vunerable to fire. they can float through the air as if being as light a feathers. but they are limited to about 50 feet of string if they try to move farther the puppet will not be able to unless the puppet master moves closer to them. also if the puppets string are cut the puppet will fall uslessly to the ground. the puppet master himself is very vunerable to light himself and tends to avoid it when possible.

    All of Cecily's hats come standard with a treatment that repels water, blocks stains, and resists ordinary damage. Of course extraordinary attempts to destroy them will probably succeed, but they should emerge from a standard random encounter unscathed.

    Cost is x gold per hat, plus y gold per enchantment added. Very special hats may require special pricing, such as quests.

    Nicolai Cievk

    Gender: Male
    Race/Species: Human or something very similar to them.
    Age: 28
    Alignment: Well, he's rather neutral in nature. More interested in himself and enlightenment then what's going on in the world, that said if asked for help he'd probably not turn a person down, so he does lean towards being good.
    Class/Profession: Psychic, is I suppose the best approximation of his skills, with a little bit of martial art's thrown into the mix.
    Power Rating: Below Average-Average I suspect from what I've seen of the Nexus
    Description: A man of medium height and build, around 5' 9 with dark brown eyes and skin made dark from days spent out in the sun, he has short black hair, and a what could be described as more Asian features, he is however fairly muscular likely from those same days out and about. He is wearing rather beat up blue jeans and a black T-shirt, He's carrying a walking stick in his hand. (More on that in the Equipment section)
    Equipment: He carries a short knife, some trail rations an small device that allows him to alter his appearance and his staff, which appears to have been carved of Holly and is covered in picture inscriptions that appear to be of things that happened.
    Abilities: He can fight fairly well hand to hand or with his staff
    He has a degree of psychic power and is good at using it to aid himself, though he can also use it to influence others
    Illiterate
    Backstory:To be developed as it is revealed IC

    Morvanyn Il'Sonye



    Alias:Bel'lakor
    Gender: Male
    Race/Species: Fey'ri
    Age: 137 (21)
    Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
    Class/Profession: Sorcerer (More a natural wild mage), part-time inventor, out-of-work actor
    Power Rating: C-/3 probably
    Description: Taller than most elves, but still short by human standards, standing about 5'6. Pale, white skin with glowing red eyes and long black hair with coruscating streaks of color steaming though it. Morvanyn tends to wear black leather anytime he gets the option (being blessed enough to have the figure to pull it off) and almost always wears his leather duster to hide his tail.
    Personality: Morvanyn, or Bel'lakor as he sometimes calls himself (normally when he wants to do something nasty), is mad by the simplest definitions of the word. It is, however, much much deeper. His every action is based, not on whim or delusion, but on what will cause the most chaos and be most amusing to watch. He is a sarcastic, ironic, sardonic trickster at heart with a heart of Francium, or maybe just pure Promethium (after his experiments with magic, for all we know it could be.)
    Equipment: Scroll-case containing various scripts for plays he plans on auditioning for; Wild Flux Generator, a piece of techno-magic that allows him greater access to wild surges; Light XBow (and ammo obviously); All-in-one Component Pack, homemade device that replaces just about every negligible material component or focus; Rod of the Reckless Dweomer, a magic device that attempts to cast any spell of his choosing...but more often than not goes horribly, horribly wrong.
    Abilities: Morvanyn can do anything he feels like doing, if he really sets his mind to it...more often than not, however, he gets distracted or bored and starts something equally ambitious. He's a sorcerer with a decent bit of magical might, but a significant chance of being crushed like a bug at any convenient moment (Or crush himself through the machinations of the dice gods). Spell List:
    Spoiler
    Show
    I'll do it eventually, just remember that, fluff-wise Morvanyn's the kind of character that can literally pull magic out of thin air and do something with it. That and I do have his spells, just don't want to waste an hour or so writing them up

    Backstory: I'll get around to it.

    Gender: Male
    Race/Species: Human
    Age: 27
    Class/Profession: Writer/Artist
    Description: About 5"10, with a thin and wiry frame. Bookish looks, with long, unkempt brown hair and indie chic glasses. Grey eyes that are often saddled with black rings and bags from sleep deprivation. Usually dressed in a brown coat and jeans.
    Equipment: Colored pencils, typewriter, journal, sketch book, copies of his graphic novels.
    Abilities: Steven is pretty good at drawing and writing, decent at painting, and passable at piano playing.
    Backstory:
    Spoiler
    Show
    Every child, regardless of their upbringing, spends hours of each day thinking up stories to entertain themselves. Whether they're fighting pirates at the supermarket or chasing bank robbers in their backyard, children are masters of Imagination. Imagination, as any knowledgable Imaginationist would say, is a very powerful force indeed. However, two factors keep young children in check, so their Imagination doesn't run rampant across the world. First off, most children are pure of heart, and their creations are happy lands where the Hero always wins and the Villain, no matter how scary, always loses. When a child begins to grow up and think of darker things, his or her Imagination usually weakens, holding less sway in his or her own mind. By adulthood, true Imagination is hard to come by, as experience has dulled the mind into viewing everything as a reference to something else, making true creation nearly impossible. Secondly, no ordinary child can will his Imagination, no matter how powerful, into the real world. Only inside a child's head do his creations truly exist.

    Yet every now and then comes a creative mind too mighty to let the angst-ridden teenage years destroy it. Steven Poe is one such mind. From the time he was six years old, he knew that he wanted to tell stories. Growing up in a lower-middle class household, taken care of by his mother and her brother, Steven didn't have the money for a computer to type up his ideas. However, that would not deter the boy, and he rummaged in the city dump every Saturday to find things to sell to pawn shops, saving up. One day, he stumbled upon an ancient typewriter. Rather than sell the antique, Steven kept it to practice with until he could buy a real computer. As it played out, the money never seemed to materialize, and the boy spent many hours slaving away at the little bronze machine.

    With pushing from his mother and Uncle Thomas, Steven didn't go to college, instead working on graphic novels, painstakingly drawing each panel with meticulous care. Though he didn't use it any more, the antique typewriter became a comforting item after days of drawing. Eventually, nearly a year after he began, Steven finished his graphic novel, entitled 'Wasted Eyes'. Though not his best work by any measure, the story, about a Sorcerer who bartered his eyes away for demonic power, and then used that power to fight fiends, managed to get published. With the prestige that came with being a hot, new published author and artist, Steven found himself in demand.

    The author/artist was invited to join a creative team that worked on an animated show about a heroic superhero. Though he didn't love the job, Steven took it for a steady cash-flow while he worked on his second graphic novel. He was put in charge of the villain team, and he worked nightly on sketching new villains for the show. Although he was only the art direction, Steven was fond of his little characters, and created his own stories for them, just like when he was a child. Eventually though, the strict confines of the program began to sap Steven's creative strength, and he found his number of ideas dwindling.

    Hoping to find something of value in his past, Steven turned to his junior high and high school sketchbooks. Many of his older ideas were too macabre for a children's program, but the spark of creation was back, and Steven settled back into his routine. Interest in his past designs still lingered in the back of his mind, and he found his spare hours devoted not to his graphic novels, but to re-drawing his old characters. His old creations became more and more of a timesink, to the point where he was behind on work. Even after he was threatened with firing, he continued to work on perfecting his old doodles.

    His lacking work ethic couldn't survive forever, and eventually Steven was fired. The event jolted him back to reality, and he looked upon his old drawings with scorn. He recalled an incident when he was 13 and had created a magical talking sword from Chicago that could fly, talk, and fought 1920's gangsters. He's been proud of the story and the drawing, but when he brought it to his uncle, the man frowned and informed Steven, as gently as possible, that not all ideas were good. There was a reason he'd never done anything important with his old drawings, and that's because they hadn't been good ideas. They were Bad Ideas. Eager to resume working on his better ideas, Steven burned his old sketchbooks, and the drawings he'd made of the characters within since.

    Returning to work on his graphic novels, Steven quickly turned out two published stories, 'Gears' and 'Flight Over Mechanus', both set in a futuristic steampunk world of his design. The money he made from those novels allowed him to continue without needing a second job and he worked hard on his 4th story. Unfortunately, a severe case of writer's block impeded his progress, and the 4th graphic novel, 'Whitewings', about an Earth-bound Angel, was unfinished. Procrastinating, Steven returned to drawing new characters, justifying it by telling himself that he'd find a way to fit them into Whitewings.

    He began to notice a trend. The "new" characters, the ones he'd been using to occupy his time, had become more and more like evolutions of his old characters. Irritated with himself, he burned the new drawings like the old. Hastily returning to his darkened room to finish Whitewings, Steven tried to forget about his old creations. But even after Whitewings was finished and shipped off to a publisher, the old characters still lingered in his mind. Finally, unable to deal with them anymore, Steven moved far away from his home, to a place called The Town, in hopes that his creative spirit would be nurtured there, and his Bad Ideas would leave for good.

    Zanny


    Alias: Zaniltorkenthroth, Zanny, Zanil Torken
    Gender: Male
    Race/Species: Green Dragon, usually appears human
    Age: 932 years
    Alignment: Chaotic awesome neutral
    Class/Profession: Master Bard
    Power Rating: A-, using Neon Knight's scale
    Description: Human form:
    Spoiler
    Show
    He is about six feet tall, give or take an inch or two. He has a growth of fiery red hair on his head, which despite going out in all possible directions is well groomed and smells fabulous. Or, at least you imagine smelling it and it is fabulous. Wait, what?

    His skin is just the right amount of tan that shows he doesn't stay indoors all day but doesn't care much about his complexion either. His mouth is fixed in a swagger-y grin. His gleaming green eyes have a spark of green in them that promises adventure and wonder like you've never felt before.

    He's dressed in a badass red longcoat and leather armor that looks totally wicked. The observers strong enough to find themselves after getting lost in his eyes or smile might see a keen rapier strapped to his belt or a fine lyre in his grasp. His well manicured fingers dance across the strings tantalizingly. Upon his feet are a pair of snazzy boots.

    When not in human form, he is a gargantuan green dragon. He is about fifty feet long from head to tail, with a scaly, lizard-like body with four legs positioned under his body, though they're more like a cat's than a lizard's, and enormous bat-like wings on his back. His head is positioned on the end of a long and thick neck with large spikes going down his spine and his tail is quite long and ends in a thin and whip-like tip. His huge eyes are emerald green in this form as well, and his teeth are a lot sharper and larger.
    Equipment: In human form, he has a badass red longcoat, leather armor, a rapier, an extremely magical lyre, and a pair of snazzy boots. Around his neck he carries an extra-dimensional storage pouch in which his dragon horde is kept. Also he has a lot of cigars.
    Abilities: He has access to all types and forms of music using his lyre. He can cast a huge variety of powerful spells, lots illusionary and mind-affecting. He also can transform himself after preparation.
    Backstory: None for you!

    Seaben Gladomain

    Alias: Often goes by just Ben, or Magister of the Terramorphic Realm

    Gender: Male

    Race/Species: Human (See description and background below)

    Age: 25

    Alignment: Lawful Good Neutral (If anybody uses the axis of funk/square)

    Class/Profession: Rockface Arcanist (the nearest DnD equivalent would probably be a spellblade with max ranks in Profession (miner))

    Power Rating: Neon Knight Score (C+ skill and knowledge/B potential and actual ability); Quinstar score (4)

    Description: Seaben stands at a stocky, muscular 5' 7" and weighs about 80 kg (about 170 lb.) of pure muscle. He has dark brown hair cut VERY short and similarly colored eyes. These contrast vividly with a very pale skin tone, indicating that Seaben hasn't seen extended sun exposure for most of his life.
    His left hand and arm show signs of being very well used - the fingers and palm are callused and worn and the arm bears scars from wrist to shoulder. His right arm, though, as well as a sizable part of his torso, appears to be covered completely in blood. It doesn't leave marks or blood stains anywhere when he touches something, but it still looks wet.

    Personality: Seaben keeps a cool head most of the time and likes to stay indoors. He is slightly unnerved by expansive open areas and is greatly afraid of being trapped, particularly underground. He's particularly skilled with forward planning but is merely combat competent.

    Equipment: At the moment, Seaben's equipment consists of a finely wrought breastplate, a light warhammer, the clothes on his back (plain brown tunic and trousers, heavy leather gloves and work boots) and a throwing blade (think a desk fan, like this, but with more space between the blades and each blade a little smaller than the palm of you hand).
    The breastplate is well-polished steel with amethyst and tourmaline inlay in the helmet. The warhammer is hafted in engraved pure steel, but the head is lined with diamond and studded with wicked shards of obsidian. The throwing blade is encased with a small shimmer of magic and is set in the middle with a single massive amethyst, on which is carved "Backlash" in flowing cursive.

    Abilities: Seaben is a miner and magician, possessant of both physical endurance and elemental mastery. In particular, the magics of earth, fire and the Void are his dedicated specialties. He knows combat theory, but is quite unpractised.
    As well as this, he has complete control over his right arm's shape and hardness and the rest of his body can bend and flow to a small degree. This comes with a cost, though - if he is polymorphed or shapechanged at any point into another animal, there is a chance that he will revert to a monstrous creation of blood and rage.

    Backstory: To be developed over some time. Too long to be put here now.

    Miscellaneous: He has no knowledge, at the beginning, how to control his monstrous side. This is developed, as well as his magical ability, throughout.

    Eve (aka Lady of Three, Mother Eve)
    (Kris, please index this post under Eve, Coralie, Vasilisa, and Jedwiga)

    Gender: Female
    Race: Human Goddess
    Age: as old as mankind
    Alignment: Neutral
    Power Rating: A/S

    In the beginning, Eve and Astir walked the lands of Eden, a garden paradise where there was nothing to endanger them, but also nothing to challenge them. In some ways a lush and vibrant world, but in other ways, dead. It allowed complete physical hedonism, but no growth at all for the mind. Until Eve came across a pomegranate tree, and a serpent that promised her that if she ate of that fruit, she would become like a god.

    She ate that fruit, and she did become a goddess, able to shape the world or even create new ones. Sometimes with Astir's help, and sometimes at war with him.

    But she never found the Tree of Life. Her body aged, and she saw her death approaching. So she split herself, allowing part of her to go into a young virgin, and another into a mother. And in time, her body died. The mother became the crone. The virgin became a mother. A new girl was chosen as the maiden. The maiden begins innocent, and doesn't bear the full memories of the goddess until she has eaten the fruit.

    Millennia pass, and the cycle continues. Each girl who is chosen passes through all three aspects of Goddesshood, and then dies, but the Goddess lives on. Each mortal aspect can access some power, but all must be united in order for the full power of Eve to become available. But they avoid this unless absolutely necessary because if all die at the same time, the goddess will die.

    The current aspects:

    Coralie, age 7
    Race: Human / Aspect of Eve "The Maiden"
    Age: 7
    Class: Spontaneous magic user
    Power Level: Scalable
    Alignment: Neutral Good
    Equipment: doll named Dolly
    Misc: Lives in the slums of Inside. Very intelligent and obedient.

    Spoiler
    Show


    Name: Vasilisa
    Race: Human / Catgirl / Aspect of Eve "The Maiden" "The Mother"
    Age: 20s
    Class: Commoner
    Power Level: Scalable

    Jeremy
    /Vengeance

    Race:Emotion(It's complicated)
    Age: 27
    Gender: Male
    Description: Slightly above average height, 190lbs, pale skin, silver hair, black goatee. Usually wears a trench coat made of shadows.
    Alignment: It's even more complicated.
    Power Level: C+/Unknown for now
    Residence: Watchtower
    Abilities: Stronger and more resilient than most mortals tend to be, uses shadows to travel to certain locations, and can summon his shotgun.

    History: Jeremy, when he used to be human, was a Vice cop in St. Louis. On one of his days off, he met Hannah(played by Happyturtle) in an alleyway off of one of the market places and was drugged and kidnapped by her and taken to Affidavit(GnrlShrimp). Through a rather long and complicated process, Jeremy bodysnatched a Creation from the Prof, and tried to get revenge. After a while, a truce was made, bodies switched, and Jeremy got betrayed and his head exploded.

    On his way to Hell, his soul was snagged by something that called herself Chaos. It offered him a deal. In return for giving his original body back to him, as well as power, he would have to serve as the physical embodiment of Vengeance in the Nexus. He accepted the deal.

    (More to come later)

    Background: CT was created when Tialait cast a ritual called "The Genius Loci" on the AMEN base. A side effect is that it left Tia completely helpless and her own power couldn't be kept inside her. Her power drained into the AMEN base and created a child version of her.

    Background: Rificul was an American tourist to London in 2000, by the name of Jack Clayton. During the new years party the lights flickered out and he panicked and ran into a part and under a bridge afraid of looters coming to kill him. Hiding under that bridge a brick was removed and a man spoke to him. Telling him to hand him his hand. He reached out for some human comfort, he felt pure pain as the fangs sank into his wrist and started draining him. Slowly the pain turned to pleasure as the estacy of embrace sat in. He awoke the next night turned into an undead monster. He could hear voices telling him who he was. He was no longer Jack, he was Rificul Malkav. He was a nightmare.

    Jag Wier
    Gender: Male
    Race: Neko
    Age: 20
    Alignment: CN
    Class: Musician
    Description: Unkempt, very long brown hair, with ears just barely poking through. Jag is recovering from a pitched battle with acne, but it's not really noticable. He's on the short side, but he's still fairly heavy... wears fairly unremarkable clothes. Beat up jeans, beat up shoes, and shirts with bands you've never heard of.
    Rating: Eh.
    Equipment: Fender Jaguar, Gibson SG, Vox AC30, A decent sized pedalboard, and a truck full of other music gear. Most of it in different stages of disrepair. Also, a laptop containing several dozen gigabytes of dubiously legaly acquired software. And a machete, just in case.
    Personality: Jag is a rock star, or at least he will be once people start listening to his band...
    Abilities: Rocking the hell out. Adding a rather nonsensical perspective to otherwise logical conversations. And really? That's about it.

    Gib and Esp
    Jag's utterly unremarkable rhythm section. Gib, the bassist, doesn't talk much because, well, bassists tend to be the quiet sort. And Esp doesn't talk much because he's a drummer and therefore not allowed to.

    Grant "Black-Fire" Brandt





    Alias: Black-Fire

    Race/Species: Daemphage

    Age: 27

    Alignment: Chaotic Good

    Class/Profession: Soldier

    Power Rating: 10


    Description:

    Thank you for the awesome drawing of Grant, Beans!

    Equipment: Grant owns a sword, shield, knife, halberd, hand gun, an eleven dagger, sword, shield and ray gun in addition to his own abilities, though he would rather use his sword or halberd than his powers..

    Backstory: Grant is the first experiment from an attempt to create a soldier that was perfect for fighting demons on the lower planes of existence. The scientist who created him once wrote that he had many emotional problems but that in terms of physical power, he was what they needed. He was trained and then sent to fight with the soldiers that were already fighting the demons. At one point he was tired of fighting and he was able to leave because of his good service. He ended up on this plane of existence in a remote village where he was found by his teacher Zero who trained him after he saw potential in him. It was there that Grant learned to use his power which is the use of dark energy to attack and defend. While he was living there he met one of the scientists that helped create him and she eventually became friends with him, but one day, Zero who was part of an earlier experiment to create creatures that could kill the planar, had killed the scientist. Grant ran away from the village and eventually ended up in HALO.

    Miscellaneous: None.

    Dhark
    Gender: Male
    Race/Species: Deeptroll
    Age: 120; prime of life.
    Alignment: Neutral-ish.
    Class/Profession: Hunter-scavenger
    Power Rating: C- with blindfold on or nighttime without blindfold; E- well lit area blindfold off; B- without blindfold in a cave.
    Description: A white-skinned humanoid creature wearing a leather loincloth and a heavy blindfold over large eyes. Protruding from the center of his forehead is a stalk of flesh ending in a glowing bulb, and similar light-generating organs are on his wrists. He's at least 7ft tall, maybe taller if he didn't slouch.
    Equipment: None, beyond loincloth and blindfold.
    Backstory: I'll think of one, probably.
    Miscellaneous: Capable of limited regeneration, generates light from various parts of his body and has very good eyesight in conditions of limited to no light; too much light entering his eyes hurts him a lot, however, and he tends to pay no attention to his other senses when in bright light as he fights to find shade.

    Age: 27

    Alignment: Chaotic Good

    Class/Profession: Soldier

    Power Rating: Lee's power level is 8 at maximum and by default he is at level 5. He can raise his power level up to 7 on his own but just like Grant, he needs someone else to help him reach full power.

    Description: Lee is thinner than Grant but just as tall, he has dyed fire engine red hair and eyes that seem to always be filled with anxiety an

    Equipment: Lee has at least four swords and if one of them is not in it's sheath on his belt he has a case for all of his swords. After a run in with a vampire Lee now carries a syringe filled with silver particles suspended in liquid meant to paralyze vampires.

    Backstory: Lee was from the second generation of planar soldiers. The things he saw in combat starting from a young age progessed into a severe disorder causing him to have flash backs and extreme stress in large crowds.


    Miscellaneous: None.
