Surge 2 [Begun!]

[Xero Scythe]

Spoiler: character sheet

Name: Damien Lier
appearance: 17 years old, male, with blond hair and steel-gray eyes. He wears sneakers, black sweats, and a red shirt, with a black sleeveless flak jacket over the shirt.
Power: Gravity. He can manipulate the gravity around him within a set area. Whether he is redirecting the flow of gravity to disorient his enemies, condensing it into deadly projectiles, or encasing himself within the gravity and turning himself into a human wrecking ball, Damien is a force to be reckoned with.
Bio: When his parents died, leaving him alone at age 8, his life turned to shambles. First he lived in the orphanage, where the one good thing happened in his life. He met a girl named Rose. At age 12, they left the orphanage and lived on the streets. Soon after, at age 14, Rose was accidentaly shot during a gang fight. Damien watched as she died. Connor lost all sense of sanity as his powers awoke. He went on a rampage and destroyed every single one of the gangsters. There are six months in Damien?s life he cannot remember, starting from the day when he killed the gangsters. Damien has spent the last 3 years honing his powers.
Psychological: Damien is incredibly resilient. No matter what happens to him, he will get right back up and continue whatever it was he was doing. He is also fiercely loyal, protecting his friends even if it means putting himself in the line of fire.
However, when Damien gets into a fight, he is incredibly ruthless, stopping at nothing to achieve victory. This does not mean he is a moronic brute; rather, he is a genius of war who is not above any tactics. If the enemy is stronger than Damien is, then he will resort to guerrilla tactics. If not, then Damien will confront the enemy openly.

Name: War
Appearance:???
Power:???
Bio:???
Psychological:???

Anyway, this is my character sheet from the original Surge. I made a few changes, but other than the Psychological, they are mostly grammatical. I noticed Yorg posted Pain/Ryan, so I decided to post Damien. Also, some of the original Surge players wanted to see my character sheet, since i sent it to ThreeWords via messaging instead of posting it in the forums.

War will be revealed as time goes on.

 

[Grimheart]

Anyway, original point:
okay, lemme get this straight. from the original Surge, the only non-insane (living) people left are Kris and Damien. Kris might not even count due to the mindscrew Pain put on him in S1.

[sup]However, to defeat a monster, sometimes you have to become a monster yourself...[/sup]

I can definitely say that Kris will not be out of this one but he will be a little mentally scarred and also missing an eye. i'm just writting up my character sheet so it should be up pretty soon

I hath blown The Horn of Aqua. Hope, mine brothers, that she shalt hear it, and feel pity in her heart for us poor mortals.

Read: I PM'd Aqua, detailing our predicament in a poetic fashion. Hopefully she will see it, and feel pity in her heart for us poor mortals.

She certainly is taking her sweet time. If her sheet isn't the length of a Greek epic, I shall go to Canada and hang out with Quad. Just to make her feel bad that I decided to hang out with Quad instead of her.

 

[fanklok]

So when exactly is tre dub (that's what I call 3W) going to let us know when people are accepted and when everyone else can go find a more fun RP hang themselves for not getting into this one go away become distraught at not getting into the legendary surge II?

 

[BloodyThoughts]

Spoiler: James Wallkins (or my sheet, hope it is accepted)

Name: James Wallkin

Appearance: A 16 year old, male. He is 5'10. He has dark brown hair with a medium(almost long) tomboy hair cut. A skinny , pale young boy,who is not very strong at all. He wears a black cotton fleece with a knitcap. Black sneakers, and blue skin tight jeans.

Powers: James harnesses the power of Sound. He can manipulate any sound wave and making it stronger making it very effective in battle.

Bio: James is a young boy, only 16, who has never known who his real parents were, for he was set up for adoption ever since he was a baby. But sadly, has never been adopted. He, growing up, has always been a smart kid, always curious, until one moment dramatized him. One day as a kid he was walking the streets, when a gang member, running from the Authorities, grabbed him, and held him in a hostage situation. To show that The gang member would do something to the kid, he shot him in the leg. Soon the police had the situation under control, but James, was already close to bleeding out. Ever since that near death experience, he has barely talked to anybody. Barely went outside, and was shy from then on in his life, never trusting people. He has always seemed scared when approached by a person.
The first time he had ever wondered about his powers when he had been confronted by a group of bullies. They had all been verbally assaulting him. James, feeling anger inside, but showing no emotion, had accidentally busted the ear drum of one of the bullies. The bullies, scared themselves, had run away. James wondered about what had happened. He tried to do tests on other animals (rats, etc.). But no luck. He simply dropped the theory of super soundwaves. But, that day was the first sign of James True powers.

Psychological: James knows when he is at defeat, and backs down when it comes to that point. Since his dramatization, he does not trust people, there for not very loyal.
when he is attacked, his emotions inside will trigger his power. Or, protect him. When some people see what he does, they run away, afraid. Whenever James is angry, his powers will get stronger. When James is defenseless, his powers will do whatever it can do to protect him. Almost like it has a mind of it's own, connected to James. However, James is never good when fighting with out his powers. He is always dominated by his opponents when he fights without them.

So yeah this is my sheet. Since I wasn't in the first Surge, I kinda had to come up with this on the spot.

 

[Nukey]

Alright, we're still waiting on Aqua and Grim.

 

[fanklok]

what if they don't come back? maybe they ran off together and got married and are now living the good life in the bahamas

 

[ThreeWords]

what if they don't come back? maybe they ran off together and got married and are now living the good life in the bahamas

The good life?

Outside of my RP?

Nah...

@Threewords: I think you should bring back Threewords in Surge2, and explain his absence. It would be cool.

Since you ask, I shall, along with a few others...

Spoiler: ThreeWords

//connection established: Company files: combat tech//

#InfoProfile-3W#

Designation- 3W

Basic specifications- Third in a series of all purpose androids. This model is equipped for heavy combat, especially against enhanced human terrorists and also carries new experimental AI programming unique to the other models ins the series, giving it far greater flexibility in the field

Appearance- All the series-W robots were built to resemble humans to the minutest detail. 3W stands 1.9 meters tall, and appears to be a slim, well built male of about 25. His hair is dark and short, and his eyes are a clear blue. The disguise is so complete that illusion of humanity will only be broken when the outer layers are damaged, revelation the robotic midi-skeleton that protects the inner mechanisms, but this outer layer is quickly repairable, to prevent causing too much panic among the civilian population

Advanced Specification- All series-W robots are far stronger, faster and more resilient than humans, to the point where it takes literally hundred of tons of pressure to do any lasting damage. Weapons systems involve both direct physical combat, and a variety of guns, though fire-power is limited. 3W specifically posses flight powers, highly advanced intelligence, and a system of nanobots that repair damage and analyse all technology that come into contact with the unit, scanning and copying all the designs within. The practical upshot is that 3W has the ability to copy almost any weapon used against it.

Recent History- Technically, 3W was a complete failure; it's first mission ended in it's desertion and betrayal of the Company, despite all it's programming. At some point, an error in the programming caused the Laws to be somehow deactivated, thereby removing all safety precautions involving the protection of humans, and allowing it to disobey orders. It then proceeded to turn on it's own forces, siding with the enhanced terrorists and doing millions of dollars of damage to military hardware.
The unit was last seen heading for the mountains outside the city, armed with several new weapons systems, a dangerously deviant personality system, and unknown motives.
However, it was recently detected, and our new long range overide system worked extremely effectivel-

I hath blown The Horn of Aqua. Hope, mine brothers, that she shalt hear it, and feel pity in her heart for us poor mortals.

Read: I PM'd Aqua, detailing our predicament in a poetic fashion. Hopefully she will see it, and feel pity in her heart for us poor mortals.

O, pity, woe! Thy fingers brittle from the effort, doth tremble in wake of a failed beacon. But alas! The call is answered, and help cometh from the North!

And by North, I mean Canada.

Anyway, yes- I have been on once or twice here and there, but my internet has been trouble recently and I only get to post once or twice before it cuts out again. So here's hoping this message gets through:

I'll be away tomorrow (exam, with friends) while my internet problem is being resolved. Later that day, if not Tuesday, I'll be here and ready to post my sheet. If you feel the need to start, go ahead! I trust the other guys' judgment in choosing a good team.

Apologies, I have to go to bed now, but good luck!

HOPE IS NOT LOST!!!

 

[BloodyThoughts]

So...When do we plan to get this stuff started. More importantly, who made it into the RP so far?

 

[Yorgmiester]

@Threewords: I think we can go ahead and start the selection as soon as Para get's his sheet up, seeing as Aqua is in automatically. I'm itching to get this started.

 

[ThreeWords]

@Threewords: I think we can go ahead and start the selection as soon as Para get's his sheet up, seeing as Aqua is in automatically. I'm itching to get this started.

Aye aye. My panel include yourself, Nukie, Revolver, Terry and Aqua, as you guys are the main power behind Surge 1. PM me your nominees and thoughts, and I'll meditate upon your advice

Spoiler: Also, I have a character idea (or more accurately only a power) here, but Im not sure about it's usability. Thoughts?

ID: Subject 54

Details of discovery: 54 came to us in answer to our adverts, the ones we put out to draw in any latent powers. He came to us because he felt odd, thought he was ostracised, and was afraid he was going mad.

Power: Distressingly, 54 has no measurable power. Certainly, he must have some kind of superhuman ability; there's no way he could do as he does naturally, but however we test him, the instruments. As for his power, it has to be seen to be believed. 54 can pick up anything, examine it carefully, and then use it as if trained wit it for years. This extends to any kind of skill; five minutes of watching it and he will gain equal skill with the demonstrator; given a few minutes more of silent thought, he will outperform his teacher. However, the learning does not last; if he does not use the skill in question, it will fade within an hour. Add that to the speed of learning, and yuo get some kind of non-power. It's beyond natural, but is nothing like the other 'superpowers' we've seen.
We've decided to call it preter-cognition.

If you think it will work, I'll forge a character around it. If not, I've a few others.

Actually that's a really good idea. If I was able to use 2 characters (witch I am probably not) I would steal it from you.
wink!

I think it would work as a sub plot, or something that connects to the main plot of the story.

*points to his char sheet* that's...pretty much what my char has

 

[Grimheart]

Sorry about taking so long to write up a revised character sheet. But now here it is! Kris is back, although he is missing an eye and might be a little crazy in the head. Paranoia and all that good stuff...

Spoiler: Kristopher Rahl

Name:Kristopher Rahl

Appearance:A modest looking 20 year old, Kris tends to keep things simple when it comes to what he wears, meaning he doesn't stray much from his dark jeans and lighter colored t-shirts. He also wears a worn leather jacket, again, nothing too fancy. Kris stands at 5'8", has straight shoulder length brown hair and a grey eye, his right eye is concealed behind a make-shift eyepatch/head band made from many different cloth strips.

Powers:Kris can bind objects to his soul, making the bound item materialize and disappear at will. He also has the power to manipulate the air around him to a certain extent. He can compress and expand air, creating effects similar to shockwaves, as well as intense gusts of wind, creating currents of wind that can cut like a blade. He has also recently discovered that he can make bolts of static lightning by rubbing the air together, creating friction and the electricity that he uses.

Bio: Kris is an amnesiac, he had lost his memory in a violent attack when he first moved to the city. After awakening without his memories, he went to a life of theivery, using his powers to become something of a master theif. he gained a reputation very quickly and became a thief for hire and has been living a decent life, well as decent as life can be when you're a thief.

His life was lived without many consequences until one day when everything went to hell. Explosions in the city and running into the most villainous people he had ever met. Kris and a rag-tag group of super powered individuals were chased around the city by powerful individuals, a man that eventualy turned into a more devilish creature and an insane individual that seemed to only want to cause chaos and destruction.

The chase eventualy led outside the city limits and the location of the final battle. Light and darkness faught there, and for a while it looked as if the power of light had prevailed. But then one of Kris's friends went mad. The super power he had once controlled so well consumed the man and be became a twisted and violent force. The following events, Kris cannot remember well. The events that unfolded in the small gap in his memory left him without his right eye.

Somehow, after the traumatic events, Kris managed to make his way to another city. It is here that he was able to patch himself up and find a place to lay low from whatever forces that hunted for him. He was able to return to his old style of living, stealing for hire, althoguh now he is more paranoid and cautious about everything he does.

 

[Nukey]

Seeing as DM is included in a few sheets, you'll be happy to know that my demon is going to return in Kenji. *snickers*

 

[Xero Scythe]

Oh, man. I can't wait to start!
