The World Forged by Powers

Characters and groups.

HardeWare Systems and Family

Tropes applying to two or more of them.

• Color-Coded for Your Convenience: The members of the -Ware family each have their own colour for their eyes and also their text.

• Noodle Incident: We don't talk about what happened at the 2009 Annual HWSys christmas party.

HardeWare / Ezekiel Masters

HardeWare, the most famous superhero in the world and widely believed to be the most powerful despite having a fairly weak power set. He has almost a constant supply of innovation and can out think almost anyone else on the planet, having about 70 thoughts in his head at once when not concentrating if he gets stuck on a particularly hard problem or is in the middle of an intense battle his thought rate can reach into the three-hundreds. He has a thing for Aurelia much to her fathers chagrin and he tends to be a loving father, but what ever you do, don't mention the Christmas party incident, I MEAN IT!

• Crimefighting with Cash: As the one of the two primary shareholders in HWSys he has quite a lot of financial leverage and his government contracts allow him to get away with things he really shouldn't be able to get away with.

• Instant Armor: HardeWare's suit may not be entirely instant but he can have it sent to him in pieces from HardeWare Towers and assemble it once it gets there.

• Telekinesis:
• We Can Rebuild Him: HardeWare's artificial arm, eye and spine are a result of this having happened to him a few times in the past. Only in this case he tends to rebuild himself. Furthermore he expresses a rather casual attitude about his willingness to do so again.

TestWare / Cache Masters

• Cute Bruiser: With her powered armour, weapons, cybernetics and nano-bots she is far more powerful than your average school-girl.

• Healing Factor: TestWare has nanbots in her blood that repair her as well as enhance her.

• Nanomachines: In her blood and the source of her Healing Factor.
• Opposite-Sex Clone: TestWare is HardeWare's daughter by this method.

WetWare / Peter Vanderheijden /Shift

• I Have Many Names: Shift, Aginor, Wetware, Mr. Vanderheijden, Peter.

• Team Dad: For the HardeWare family, even if they only call him 'uncle'.

• Vetinari Job Security: Peter Vanderheijden has known HardeWare since college and seems to be the only one capable of dealing with him regularly without going insane.

The NYSCN

Unaffiliated

Forgelings

• Blob Monster: A mostly hidden example. Shapeshifting Forgelings live among us disguised as cars, and mailboxes and even your next door neighbor. They're mostly observers but they will try to kill you if you attempt to expose them to the public. This trope applies to most other freemorphs (including Utility Fog) as well unless they're Super Smoke instead. Though some can be both.

LightBlood Academy

• Extranormal Institute: The Lightblood Academy is not only for the rich but also has scholarships for the extraordinary. It features combat training for the students among other things.
• Virtual Training Simulation: Lightblood academy has a well equipped gym with holograms and forcefields for students to practice in.
