History Characters / NemesisRoleplay

* BoobsOfSteel: Yup.

* WeaponOfChoice: Her fists. Encased in gauntlets made from a layer of asbestos between two layers of Kevlar/carbon/classified alloy, reinforced with titanium plating on the backs of the hands and arms. Good thing she's got [[SuperStrength super strength.]]

Highly trained and supernaturally inclined, Patrick's Superpower is Weapon Familiarity, making him one of the most proficient fighters in the Heart Keepers or any of the factions involved in the story. [[WeaponOfChoice Favoring a]] [[KatanasAreJustBetter Katana]], he is successful against much larger groups and much larger enemies, even stripped of his senses. However, he does not want to fight and only does so when necessary, sparing enemies and being generally decent outside of combat.

* {{Asexual}}

* [[spoiler: StuffedIntheFridge]]: [[spoiler: Curb stomped by Crucible for Ian to find moments later.]]

* EverythingIsBigInTexas: Born and raised in Amarillo, Texas.

* FragileFlower: Looking at the seven-foot, three-inch tall woman with a build best described as "brick shithouse," you might be surprised to find out what an emotional wreck she is.

* [[ActionGirl Action Girl:]] Definitely.
* [[AmbiguouslyBrown Ambiguously Brown:]] Averted; is said to be Kenyan-Apache on her father's side and Finnish on her mother's.
* [[AmericanAccents American Accents:]] Texas drawl, but she tries to hide it.
* [[ApologisesALot Apologises a Lot]]
* [[BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind Battle in the Center of the Mind:]] Engages in one of these against the hatevoice. It doesn't fix her problem.
* [[BerserkButton Berserk Button:]] If you've raped or molested someone, and she finds out...
* [[BewareTheNiceOnes Beware the Nice Ones:]] Most of the time, she wouldn't hurt a fly. However, if you do wind up in a combat situation with her...this ''is'' the woman capable of hitting with a force equivalent to that of the bomb dropped on Nagasaki. And that's just at the beginning of the story.
* [[TheBigGuy The Big Guy]]
* [[BloodKnight Blood Knight:]] She bases her entire sense of self-worth on combat.
* [[BoobsOfSteel Boobs of Steel:]] Yup.

* [[DumbMuscle Dumb Muscle:]] Seems to want to be this. Definitely views herself as this.
* [[EmotionlessGirl Emotionless Girl:]] Briefly tries to be this at one point in order to spare herself emotional pain. It doesn't last.
* [[EverythingIsBigInTexas Everything Is Big In Texas:]] Born and raised in Amarillo, Texas.
* [[FantasticNuke Fantastic Nuke:]] Rikka's most powerful, and most self-destructive, attack, in which she blows out her excess power in a large, highly destructive explosion. The first time, she got terrible burns and was severely exhausted. The second time, she ruptured something internal and almost drowned in her own blood.
* [[FragileFlower Fragile Flower:]] Looking at the seven-foot, three-inch tall woman with a build best described as "brick shithouse," you might be surprised to find out what an emotional wreck she is.
* [[FreudianExcuse Freudian Excuse:]] Rikka assigns so much importance to winning fights because she was molested by a close family friend whom she considered an uncle. He physically overpowered her and forced her to pose for photos; because of this, Rikka developed a deep obsession with becoming strong, and believes that so long as she can keep winning fights, she is still a powerful fighter who can't be forced into such a situation ever again.
* [[GentleGiant Gentle Giant:]] Both out of necessity and, often, in personality.
* [[GuiltComplex Guilt Complex]]
* [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity]]: Having Super Strength so Intense that She Literally Crushes Everything Has Forced Rikka into Great Isolation, Wrecked Her Sense of Self-Worth, and All in All Hasn't Done Her Mental State Any Favors
* [[HearingVoices Hearing Voices:]] Specifically, the voice of her own self-loathing and feelings of worthlessness. She calls it the "hatevoice."
* [[HugeSchoolgirl Huge Schoolgirl:]] By the time she's reached adulthood, she's over seven feet tall, and she started growing early.
* [[IJustWantToBeNormal I Just Want to Be Normal]]
* [[IOweYouMyLife I Owe You My Life:]] Feels this toward Villains INC, which took her in after she developed her [[SuperStrength disas]][[CursedWithAwesome trous]] powers.

* [[MusclesAreMeaningful Muscles Are Meaningful]]
* [[NervousWreck Nervous Wreck]]

* [[LesbianJock]]: Well, Pansexual Jock.

* [[RequiredSecondaryPowers Required Secondary Powers:]] Aside from [[SuperStrength super strength]], Rikka has [[SuperToughness superhuman resistance to blunt force trauma]], superhuman endurance, and is superdense.
* [[SingleIssuePsychology Single Issue Psychology]]
* [[SuperStrength Super Strength:]] Her superpower. She can hit with thirteen kilotons of force at the start of the roleplay...unfortunately, her body also wants to apply thirteen kilotons of force to everything.
* [[TryingNotToCry Trying Not to Cry:]] Pretty much all the time.
* [[WeaponOfChoice Weapon of Choice:]] Her fists. Encased in gauntlets made from a layer of asbestos between two layers of Kevlar/carbon/classified alloy, reinforced with titanium plating on the backs of the hands and arms. Good thing she's got [[SuperStrength super strength.]]
* [[TheWoobie The Woobie:]] Had a promising boxing career torn away from her when she blew apart another fighter's head with a single punch in her first televised match. Hasn't been able to touch another human being in nine years. Can't deal with failure, yet takes everything as a failure. Misses her parents, whom she hasn't seen since she got her powers.

Number 3.0 in the aptly-named 'Demon' series, Richard is what you think of when you cross {{Hellboy}} with [[TheLordOfTheRings a Balrog]]. With a eagerness for battle and a considerable aptitude for it, Richard is a sometimes overzealous powerhouse, outshined by Rikka in regards to strength but far more reliable in terms of stability.

* [[BrokenBird Broken Bird:]] Sort of.

* {{Determinator}}: When it comes to completing missions, fulfilling orders, and killing enemies. The mission at the mall is a great example of this. Throw all the fireballs at her and pour all the radiation into her that you want, Rikka won't stop trying to kill you. Even if you turn yourself into a literal nuclear explosion, she'll [[FantasticNuke self-nuke]] - despite not knowing if she'll survive doing so - and create her own explosion to combat yours.
* [[DeterminedDefeatist Determined Defeatist]]

* [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity Having Super Strength so Intense that She Literally Crushes Everything Has Forced Rikka into Great Isolation, Wrecked Her Sense of Self-Worth, and All in All Hasn't Done Her Mental State Any Favors]]

* [[MoodSwinger Mood Swinger:]] Sometimes.

* [[LesbianJock Pansexual Boxer]]

* [[TryingNotToCry Trying Not to Cry:]] Often.

This poor guy [[IJustWantToBeNormal just wants to be normal]]. A mild mannered schoolteacher from [[CityOfAdventure School City]] (we know), David has been juggling some serious problems for a while now. For one, he used to get dragged into adventures all the time, thanks to his ancestral powers allow an [[NoodleIncident ancient Vampire hunter to possess his body]]. But hating all the craziness, he [[10MinuteRetirement quit all of that for good]]. Of course, that didn't keep his strange [[LifeDrain Energy absorbing]][[LightEmUp Light]] powers from coming back recently... right around when he was turned into a Vampire (long story). Since his powers and his Vampirism clash, he couldn't take the cure, and has been having to deal with conflicting powers he has no control over and the urges of his new nature. That, and a mountain of school work.

Of course, Villains INC pays him a visit once they learn that his powers are similar to the weapon used by Nemesis. Upon the discovery that Nemesis is using his powers for evil, David sees [[callToadventure a chance to help]], and decides to come along with the strike team to fight Nemesis. As an Outsider, he doesn't know whether to trust Villains INC, any of the Villains, or even their own goals, and never fully falls in with anyone.

* PlotIrrelevantVillain / HeroOfAnotherStory

An important but not well accepted member of the Heart Keepers, Anthony could be easily confused for their leader; he does most of the thinking (if not all of it), a good deal of the talking and is generally present for most of the more important things. However, his seeming indifference to the other Heart Keepers and isn't very sociable. However, his motivations are actually quite altruistic - but that doesn't make him any less of a dick.

* YouCantFightFate: Interestingly considered by her. Since she can see the future, she can try to change it; sometimes, she can succeed. The only caveat is that Just Knowing the Future isn't a good enough reason to change it. If she tries to avoid spilling her drink because she sees the future and sees that it will fall, she will fail. But if she tries to avoid knocking over her drink by going to make a phone call that allows he to stop it, she can succeed. [[spoiler: This comes into play later when she sees that she will die at the King's Creek Mall mission. She tries to get Ian to take her away, away from the mall and from their lives as heart keepers - something she has wanted to do for a long time. However, Ian tragically deduces her actual reasoning for doing it now, and since they are both acting to change the future only because they know what the future will hold, they fail, and emily is killed.]]

Crucible. The Enforcer of Nemesis. The Robed Man. The Man with the Gauntlet. Silent, stoic, impassive-looking and very, very buff, Crucible is soon learned to be on a mad quest to absorb the life essence of those Supers who have the most of it, which has him running into the Villains more than once. Though he works with (and uses the greatest resource of) Nemesis, he knows that them betraying him is only inevitable, and has no loyalty to their group. After a shocking draw against Rikka, the Massacre of a base and the murder of a Heart Keeper, Crucible cemented himself as the one to beat, [[MeangingfulName the real test]] of the protagonists.

* LightIsGood/LightIsNotGood: Depends on your point of view, his powers could be either.

* WhatTheHellHero / MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Anthony accidentally [[Fatally injures White]] in the middle of combat - something he had not at all intended to do. Though, like everything with him, [[TheStoic his reaction is muted]], anyone that knows him would recognize that he is shaken by this event.
