In The Throes Of The Mad King's Game: A Superpower Lottery RP

EST. I usually get on at about 3:00-4:00pm on weekdays. I'm usually free on the weekends though.

Central Time for me. I can usually post throughout the day though, barring a few odd hours here and there.

PST and usually between 7 and 10 or so.

The RP is up!

Is there a discussion thread?

Edit: Found it.

So, no additional sign ups?

I don't think so.

Well, I stated my rolls and possible intent to register earlier, so... (shrug)

Oh! In that case...I'm not sure

If the sign-ups are still going on, here's my character.

• Name: Zacharias Gannon
• Age: 19
• Gender: Male
• Prisoner Number: CK-L31-9
• Crime Committed: Theft of a Mark and other valuables from members of nobility.
• Appearance: A tall, tanned and averagely-built man, often seen wearing a grumpy expression. Zach has dark brown hair and grey eyes. He usually wears a leather vest and tattered jeans.
  • His Mark◊, located between his shoulder blades.
• Personality: Despite his outwardly cold demeanor, Zach is, in fact, a gentle and caring person. He is also a quick-thinker, more than willing to make things up as he goes along, although he has been known to make rash decisions. And while he may be gentle to most people, get on his bad side, and he will prove to be quite ruthless. And he is not unwilling to resort to violence when necessary.
• Power: Matter transmutation (33)
• Carry Limit: 3 (5, 1, 3, 2, 6)
• Bio: Zacharias was born into a large family of mechanics, with 9 siblings. Despite their middle class status, his parents’ income was insufficient to fully feed all of their children, nor could they easily afford engine oil, and so they often turned to thievery. Zach took to this particular trade quickly, and before long, he had acquired plenty of valuables from rich nobles. One of these items turned out to be a Mark, and Zach began to hone the power he obtained from it. When he realized he could turn ordinary liquids such as water into engine oil, his family’s business boomed, eventually attracting the attention of the law. When his parents were confronted about the sudden supply of oil, Zach gave himself up, claiming to be working alone. He was taken in, and his family was left alone.

Okay, Camroc and Starbound's will be the last I will be accepting.

After a fair amount of self-deliberation, I decided to throw in a character profile.

• Name: Albert Schwarzchild
• Age: 26
• Gender: Male
• Prisoner Number: SCH-06-6730
• Crime Committed: Conspiracy to overthrow the government, conspiracy to murder government officials, conspiracy to jailbreak dangerous criminals
• Appearance: A slightly-taller-than-average slender young man with mussy brunette hair and brown eyes. The clothing he found himself landed in prison with are grey slacks and a black vest over a white long-sleeve collared shirt. He has thin-frame glasses - his eyesight isn't horrible, but they help. Still, he doesn't expect them to last particularly long if he's brought into the arenas with them, so he leaves them in whatever cell he resides in.
• Personality: Calm and collected, Albert is very introverted and spends a lot of time in his own head, keeping his thoughts to himself as he ponders various thought experiments and calculations. However, he is cooperative when he needs to be and will help other prisoners out when necessary. After all, they're all in this together. Enjoys reading the newspaper and keeping up to date with current events, regardless of how biased they can be.
• Power(s): Abstract Manipulation - Space (3), Time (3), Vectors (3)
• Bio: A physics graduate student of one of the empire's top universities and born the son of a government scientist performing less-than-ethical experiments relating to Marks and their users. Albert lived with his father for essentially all of his life, continuing up until recently, where it was discovered that certain sensitive materials were found stolen by the older Schwarzchild along with plans by some small rebellion group to try and strike against the government. The Schwarzchild home was raided only for an explosion to detonate the two story house, destroying whatever secret research his father may have had hidden, and presumably killing the man himself. The investigators of this case did not want to come back to their superiors empty handed, so they blamed the father's crime on the son and had him arrested while he was lecturing his undergraduates. He claims ignorance to his father's plotting but lack of trial and Mark possession led him to where is now.
