[up]Looks mostly fine, but you might want to nix the electricity and telepathy. Maybe they can get those abilities later on, but GL powers is already pushing it. It may not sound like much, but with GL powers, you get flight, forcefields, laser beams, guns, flamethrowers, deathtraps, powered armour, and anything else he can think of. It's a swiss army power set.

The Silent and Shade are also fine, but try not to have them dominate the narrative or the setting.

Yeah that makes sense, I'm cool with losing the other powers. I figured the Silent wouldn't even show up, and they'd mostly just be this distant pressure that Leo knows he will have to deal with eventually, but no time soon.

  • Real Name: Koku.
  • Superhero Name: Legion
  • Age: The vessel is 15.
  • Race: Does horde of ghosts squatting in a human’s body count as a race?
  • Appearance:
    • Base Appearance Koku can be described in one word. That word being ghostly. Their skin is pure white and their eyes are a special shade of silver. Specifically the shade that specters tend to have. Koku’s hair is void black, a stark contrast to their skin. Multiple ethereal stitches run along Koku’s skin, giving them an even more creepy appearance than they already had.
    • Superhero Uniform As Legion, Koku wears a trench-coat that covers the entirety of their body. This allows them to hide the intense splitting of their body from enemies as to catch them off guard. Other than that Koku’s uniform consists of a plain black t-shirt and black pants.
  • Personality: Koku is rather...odd. They constantly seem to argue out loud with themselves. This is, of course, because they are arguing with themselves. All ghosts that are a part of Koku contribute to the overall personality of the being, so conversations with them can be rather strange. They often talk in circles and change topics very fast.

    • In the time he’s in control, The Vessel is a fairly skilled conversationalist. He’s obviously insecure about the fact that he’s little more than a house for a bunch of wayward souls, but he seems to not mind the souls all that much. In fact he has a rather decent relationship with most of them, regular conversations occurring often.

  • Powers:
    • Soul Splitting There are many souls that make up Koku’s being. These souls are bound together by fate, but they aren’t necessarily attached. Instead they are quite literally stitched together via ‘soul-binds.’ These can be rather easily broken to allow some of those souls to break free and solidify, acting as an autonomous unit instead of an assimilated being. This comes with a wide range of applications ranging from fighting to just grabbing the remote if the whole of Koku decides that they doesn’t wanna get up.
      • Rouge Souls Sometimes souls that exit Koku like being autonomous. These are called Rouge Souls and they tend to not be much trouble, because the rest of Koku will, without any hesitation, immediately focus all attention on re-assimilating this Soul. None of the Koku souls know why they do this, they just do.
    • Ghostly Nature Doesn’t require food, drink or water. Still has to sleep though. Individual souls can be killed via purification or exorcism, but it has proven difficult to kill the whole legion.
  • Gear: Travels light due to not really needing sustenance, but carries chocolate. Because the one thing that Koku can agree on is that chocolate fucking rocks.
  • Backstory:
    • Many, many years ago there were 50 individuals. Each of these individuals had one thing in common. They all had cancer. They lived their lives, hoping to win their battle with the disease. They tried everything to be cured, chemo, surgery you name it. But none of it worked. Finally, when all doors were closed and no hope remained, they caught wind of the Initiative of Togetherness. This initiative supposedly worked on a multitude of diseases. This initiative was supposed to save these 50 individuals. This initiative was a lie.

    • Through years of testing these individuals were stripped of their individuality. The initiative was true to it’s namesake. It slowly merged their souls into one form. One legion. But it was imperfect. None of the original bodies could be used as a vessle, as the original owners had not yet forgotten them.

    • Then the boy was born. One of the scientists at the head of the Initiative Of Togetherness, in a moment of weakness, had a child. She was scolded for her irresponsible behavior, her baby was taken, and she was terminated.

    • The legion now had a vessel.

    • Though eager, the legion had pity on the boy, and though they occupied his body they did not make themselves known until it was necessary. When the scientists pushed The Vessel from the third floor to the first. He was in a coma for three weeks. Upon his awakening, the legion took control of his body and forced him to run away from the Initiative, finally gaining the power to escape. Upon finding themselves in safety, the legion gave control back to the Vessel. After a rather lengthy conversation, The Vessel and the legion agreed that it would be best if they found a place that could train them to utilize their abilities to help people and keep them protected at the same time.

    • Enter Saint Academy. Realizing that a name would have to be used to refer to the legion as a whole, eventually coming to the conclusion that Koku is a bomb-ass name that everyone likes. Now, Koku heads to Saint, hoping to become a hero that can destroy those that wronged them.

  • Real Name: Markus Harper
  • Superhero Name: Wizard
  • Age: 16
  • Race: Half-elf
  • Appearance: Wizard is 5'10 and rather skinny for a hero. He has gray skin and short black hair which is always unkempt and usually covered with a baseball cap of some sort outside of missions. His hero costume is a black, kevlar-lined flight suit with a dark blue emblem of a wide-brimmed wizard hat on the chest, a gray utility belt, a set of combat boots designed for sneaking, a black hood, a pair of goggles, and a pair of thick black gloves.
  • Personality: Wizard generally keeps to himself, and spends most of his time training, watching movies, or at the arcade. When around others, he constantly wisecracks and jokes, often using his powers for gags (for example, making a floating "no shit" sign when someone says something obvious). He's also fond of using his powers for practical jokes, either for his amusement, or to disorient an enemy. He hates muggers, anti-wavers, and those who prey on the innocent.
  • Powers: Illusions: Wizard is able to create illusions anywhere he can see within a 20-mile radius. These illusions can be seen, heard, and/or smelled by everyone but cannot be touched. Visual illusions can be as large as a pickup truck. Audio illusions can be as loud as a gunshot, and olfactory illusions can be as potent as a can of air freshener. The illusions require concentration to maintain, and large or complex illusions can be taxing. Visual illusions can be destroyed by fire, electric, or energy-based attacks, which causes Wizard a brief, incredibly painful headache. The longest Wizard has held an illusion for is 16 minutes.
  • Gear: Utility belt contains a retractable grappling hook and 20 ft of rope, a small swiss army knife, pepper spray, handcuffs, a pouch of ball bearings, and basic medical supplies. His primary weapon is a stun baton attached to the belt capable of generating 30,000 volts.
  • Backstory: Wizard grew up in a rough neighborhood where gang activity was common. His area was the territory of a human-only gang notorious for assaulting and robbing wavers. His powers first developed at the age of 11 for unknown reasons and he quickly learned to use his illusions to distract and deceive muggers, allowing himself to escape. He felt a strong urge to use his powers to help his community and began using his powers to scare off gang members harassing other people and eventually applied for Saint Academy.
  • Miscellaneous:
    • He reached blue belt in karate.
    • His favorite arcade game is Smash TV.
    • He's primarily a stealth hero, and is rather fragile, and can usually be taken out in a few hits.
    • He is incredibly agile, sometimes spending all day practicing parkour or dodging attacks.

Real Name: Pedro Manalo

Superhero Name: Undecided (leaning towards The Caffiend)

Age: 16

Race: Human (Empowered)

Appearance: 5'7, somewhat of a runner's build, light brown skin, black eyes, dark brown/almost black hair (typically swept back).

Personality: Cocky and brash, but one hell of a Determinator. While he plays himself up as untouchable, he does have a more sensitive side that few are privy to see.

Powers: Whenever Pedro consumes caffeine, he can reach speeds of up to 100 MPH and gains heightened reflexes to match. He is also incredibly skilled in Escrima note .

Gear:

  • Escrima sticks: Hollow, made from aluminum.

  • Utility Belt: Has holsters for his sticks as well as canisters to carry various sources of caffeine (typically canned green tea, energy shots note , and chocolate-covered espresso beans).

Backstory: By all accounts, Pedro Manalo originally seemed like an average boy: playful, if a bit rambunctious, but nothing out of the ordinary. That all changed when he was twelve years old and he had his first cup of coffee, after which he ran a lap around his neighborhood in just under a minute.

This discovery was not without consequence; Pedro would soon be barred from escrima competitions as the organisers believed that his powers gave him an unfair advantage in comparison to his peers. This wouldn't keep him down for too long, though, as he would try out various ways to utilize his newfound abilities. Eventually, he would go on to enroll into Saint Academy to put what he'd learned to the test, and perhaps make a name for himself.

Miscellaneous:

  • Can play a damn good game of baseball.

"Thats what the people I'm fighting don't get, I'm never alone."

  • Real Name: Nathan Milstride
  • Superhero Name: Fellowship
  • Age: 15
  • Race: Human/Magic User
  • Appearance: Link for Appearance- He still hasn't chosen a superhero outfit.
  • Personality: "Never fear the hero is here!" Bright and cheerful to a fault Nathan believes the best of people and is constant in his pursuit of making new friends and making the world as happy as he is at any given time. Even in the darkest situation he will smile and move forward.
  • Powers: The Power of Friendship...no seriously- Nathan's magic ability is a power gifted to him due to having made friends with a hundred people in a single day. He can literally give no other explination of it except for that. Along with allowing him to access his other abilities it also allows him the ability to make friends with anyone or anything. While it doesn't mean he will always succeed the chance of him coming to an understanding and being able to shake someones hand is never zero.

Enchanted by the Power of Friendship...again seriously- Nathan's magic allows him to enchant objects with magical auras for a variety of often random but always non-lethal effects. Using a pipe might enchant it to be nearly indestructible, or it might produce an effect that makes an enemy sleepy when hit. A shirt might become as hard as steel while being as light as a feather, or become perfect camo for him. Beyond their random effects they also have a strong anti-evil field that rejects dark magic and curses.

The Power of Love...OH SHIT ITS A LAS-- The ultimate in Nathan's powerset is also the most dangerous to him, a beam of pure energy he can fire out that washes his foes and allies with his own style of empathic magic. His allies will find strength and healing, while his enemies will find themselves faced by their own evil. The issue is that while those within its path are inflicted by the ability Nathan himself also draws in all of their feelings, a painful experience if used against someone whose evil it more potent then his own positivity.

  • Gear: Typically carries around a metal pipe, a can of mace, and a pocket full of marbles.
  • Backstory: Nathan is a rather plain example of humanity, with little separating him from most other people his age. He loves video games, movies, and above all making people around him smile. Ever since he was a kid he has gone above and beyond to accomplish that last one, always seeking out people who needed a friend and then becoming that friend with a cheery attitude and an impossible amount of drive. One day he set himself an impossible goal of making a hundred friends in a single day, and through it was a long and difficult process he not only met his goal but obtained access to a number of magical abilities that so far no one can place in origin. Regardless of reason he saw his abilities as a gift that he had to give back to others, and thus enrolled in Saint's Academy without a second thought. While the first thought was how many more friends he could make as a hero, but enrolling was a strong second.
  • Miscellaneous: While driven to make friends Nathan isn't naïve or the type to easily fall into traps. He understands that the world isn't always as bright as he wants it to be, but instead of seeing that as the end of the story instead will strive to change it.

  • Real Name: Iona Bassano

  • Superhero Name: Planeswalker

  • Age: 16

  • Appearance: She's not one much for the "cape and robe" aesthetic

  • Personality:Iona is warm and personable, though her tongue is sharp and her patience occasionally thin, despite her tranquil demeanor. Earnest and overeager, she often acts without thinking when compelled towards action, with almost little regard for her well-being. She's driven to heroism even at a cost to herself, yearning to be a good example for her family and to break the stigma of the study of the Elemental Planes. She has an air of wisdom and experience beyond her age to her. Disciplined and with a tinge of sterness, there is very much a softer, tender side to her, and empathy tends to win out over her sense of right and wrong. Given the nature of learning Elemental Magic, she's often deep in thought and contemplative of the world around her and what things means and symbolize.

  • Powers:

    • Elemental Magic: Iona can call upon the Elemental Planes to cast magic of fire, water, earth, air, light and dark and their subtypes. She's grasped basics of all of them. In addition, Iona is able to attune to Elemental Energy, sensing it and using it to empower spells in areas where it coalesces strongly in the normal world. However, careful emotional control is required to stop spells from going haywire.

    • Spirit Pact: Iona knows how to and can form pacts with Elemental Spirits. Once a pact is formed, Iona can briefly call them for assistance in a spell or to use their own abilities. With enough skill, time and a good bond, she can summon them for extended periods of time as a comrade.

  • Gear:

    • Grimoire Iridescent: An old tome that still yet shimmers with a rainbow shine in the light. Carefully engraved into the front cover is an enclosed circle comprised of a ring of four circles, encircling two more. Each circle has a symbol of an element within. On the back, an illustration of the circle on the front intersecting with a circular depiction of a flat part of Earth. Though it appears finite, the pages never seem to reach their end when turned, holding all the magical knowledge that Iona knows and has to learn with a fickle hand.

    • Ring of Arcane Alacrity: Although Iona doesn't need any aid to cast spells, this simple iron band with a single shimmering ruby set within allows her to cast most low-effort spells with simple, subtle hand movements.

    • Satchel of Elements: Housed within this seemingly infinite pouch are a variety of elementally-charged components used to empower spells and perform rituals. It's actually just a glorified bag of holding that only holds items thick in Elemental Energy, also stopping others from exposure to it which can have negative side effects after long-term exposure

    • Insight of The Six Lords: A deck of 24 cards with blank faces and a symbol of one of the 6 elements on the back. Used to do rough fortune telling.

    • Jacket of Prismatic Protection: Though it appears to be a normal jacket, Iona's jacket is actually enchanted to provide protection from the elements. It never catches on fire, never freezes or gets wet, never dries out or gets dirty. It also offers minor protection from hostile magic.

    • Seal of The Elemental Plane: This signet ring has the seal made out of vibrant crystal that shines with the colours of the rainbow. The seal is of the same design as that on the front of the Grimoire Iridescent. But this ring is more than just for show. In the presence of large amounts of Elemental Energy, the seal changes colour to match the type of Elemental Energy. It also protects Iona from all Elemental Energy exposure, allowing her to move through the Elemental Plane unharmed should she enter it.

  • Backstory: Born in the small Italian town of Adana, Iona normally humdrum life changed at around 13 years old when she came across an old book on the Elemental Planes while browsing the library. With the spark of curiosity kindled inside her, she sought more and more knowledge about it, unaware of the superstitions and taboo associated with calling upon the Elemental Planes. With her younger brother Fazio being born with the ability to make his imagination reality, while her parents were accepting of her study, the Bassano family soon became Adana's "oddball" family, with the "witch" daughter and a son who almost nobody ever saw leave the house. The rumours and suspicions eventually grew to be too much, and with Fazio getting older, the family eventually had to move on to greener pastures. Namely, America, where the Bassano family moved to Super City when Iona and Fazio were 14 and 9, respectively. Iona ended up joining the local branch of The Society of the Iridescent Gem, going 2 years of training alongside her schoolwork. Her hobby soon became something Iona desired to become famous for, to dispel the fear and distrust around Elemental Magic users, and to set a good example for Fazio on using his powers responsibly as he got older. With that in mind, Iona enrolled in Saint Academy to learn how to become a superhero, and set a new image for the studiers of Elemental Magic across the world.

  • Real Name: Alex Geiger
  • Superhero Name: Rhythm
  • Age: 16
  • Race: Human (cybernetically augmented)
  • Appearance: Feast thy eyes. Wears various casual outfits, all in those same coordinated colors, and always with the headphones. In his 'costume', though, it's a totally different story.
  • Personality: There's a sort of duality here that means it would only make sense to describe the two sides of Alex separately:
    • First, we have Alex Geiger, the everyday school kid. Soft-spoken, introverted, and perpetually just a bit tired, he's the kind to fly just below the radar, content to sit by in the corner and watch the school life go by. Not that he's averse to friends, mind - just that he doesn't get around to making a lot of them. Get past that point, and he's actually rather personable, if not a bit exhausted most of the time. He's got a bit of a self-deprecative streak going, too, stemming from a bit of an inferiority complex.
    • On the other hand, there's Rhythm, his heroic persona, and as far as some people are concerned, or at least are willing to suspend their disbelief, an entirely different person. Packed with boundless levels of energy, Rhythm is an extroverted bundle of joy who will absolutely hug a complete stranger because they seem to be having a slightly worse than average day. Though a little naïve, Rhythm is dependable and steadfast, determined to make his mark on the world and make everyone's day just a little better while at it.
    • The truth, of course, is a little more complicated than that. Or, rather, possibly a little simpler. The two, of course, are one and the same - Rhythm, the in-costume persona, is a role, created as a public image, though perhaps maintained a little more strictly than other heroes. While those traits certainly don't align with Alex's normally laid-back expression, though, it's hard to call them fake - rather, being Rhythm is simply an opportunity for him to express that side of himself that doesn't normally get to shine through.
  • Powers:
    • Living Generator: Alex's actual power is rather simple, and rather inelegant - he generates energy. Rather staggering amounts of energy, in fact, and uncontrollably, too - though he's learned to somewhat regulate it, he can't entirely turn it off, meaning he needs to vent them occasionally. These vents, before he had his implants, were usually rather destructive affairs, though - well, see the next paragraph, I suppose.
    • Cybernetic Enhancements: The implants in Alex's body - listed as powers rather than gear, unremovable as they are - are the bridge between his powers and his equipment. They eschew the usual fare of motorized joints, strength boosters, the like, opting instead for two things. One is a direct neural lace, allowing him to control the implants - and anything connected through a special port on the nape of his neck - with a thought. The other is a series of ports scattered across his body - one in each palm, one on each sole, and one at the small of his back - that allow him to vent his energy in a controlled manner, rather than just everywhere around him.
  • Gear:
    • 'Rhythm': His hero costume, his most prized possession, and the source of his powers. The suit of powered armor known as Rhythm is an ingenious design, plugging into Alex's implants to both allow him control of its systems with a thought, and to draw its power supply from Alex's own generous power generation. It provides Alex with a degree of boosted speed, strength, and durability - not enough to reach the levels of anyone with, say, super strength, but still enough to let him punch above his usual weight, in line with what a high-level athlete could manage. On top of that, it's equipped with energy projection, drawing from Alex's power supply to unleash powerful blasts of energy as offensive weapons, as well as a set of hidden thrusters around the suit's body and an antigravity field that allow him to take flight. Oh, and, given that the creator had the bright idea to build it into a fursuit of all things, it also gives great hugs, but that's neither here nor there. At any rate, the suit opens up in the front to let him in and out, and is comfortable enough to stay in for hours at a time.
    • Nanocameras: These are... A somewhat strange case, actually, in that they're not particularly useful for Alex. Rather, they're used to record and stream him to a live audience. In theory, they're unnoticeable - a handful of floating nanobots that follow him around like the world's tiniest stalkers. In practice, though, the fact that they stream video makes them trivial to actually detect. Through his implant's neural lace, Alex can exert some control over these, namely turning their broadcast on and off - their positions are entirely automated, though, aiming to get the most cinematic camera angles possible, making them mostly useless for any practical purposes.
  • Backstory:
    • Born into a wealthy lineage, and one with a high number of heroes since the 40's, Alex was always meant to do great things. Just one problem with that: He was born with a power, all right, and it sucked ass. His family was actually convinced that he was powerless, at first - until the first time his energy overflowed, when he was around 9 and not too long after his powers had manifested, requiring several rooms of the family house to be rebuilt entirely. From then on, his life had to become fairly regulated, owing to the whole 'ticking time bomb' thing and needing to have his power regularly drained because of it, leading him to spend a lot of his time indoors and developing an affinity for, among other things, composing music, something that became his hobby going forward, and something that earned him a meager but notable following online.
    • Enter Cassandra Geiger. The big sister of Alex by several years, she was born with a much more significant power - that of super-intellect, a case that would go unrivalled by most, and with a particular knack for engineering and robotics. By the time her brother had hit thirteen, she was in the middle of her twenties, and had graduated from one of the many hero-academies, making a name for herself as a genius who fights crime and villains alike with her drones. And seeing her brother's plight, she came up with a plan - she partnered with a family friend, a genius in the field of cybernetics, to design and create a set of cybernetic implants that would allow Alex to control his power much more easily, and maybe let him lead a somewhat more normal life. He accepted with glee, and thankfully, the whole process was a success.
    • With that, Alex was a free man, in a sense - though still having lost several years of childhood for his troubles. Of course, with his family's reputation to live up to, and now being able to actually control his powers, he decided that now would be as good a time as any to become a hero - he went out one night, under the nose of his family, and promptly got his ass thoroughly handed to him by a small-fry villain. Despite this, it didn't stop him, and he kept sneaking out a few more times - until he was caught by his own sister's surveillance. Knowing that she probably wasn't gonna convince him otherwise, she instead opted to put him on a somewhat more... Reasonable path. First, she worked with him to create the heroic persona of Rhythm, using his own love for music. Second, she helped design and build his suit, which would let him maybe not have his ass kicked quite so hard. And thirdly, she arranged for his admission to Saint Academy when he reached the age for it.
    • In the interim, she helped him train to use the suit effectively, largely by pitting him against small-fry villains under her supervision. Through this, Alex had a realization - he already had an audience for his music, which by now was fairly notable, and since his heroic persona was already music-themed, well... It took a bit of convincing, of course, but eventually, he had his sister create cameras to livestream his heroics, and with a bit of tweaking, the persona turned into a character all on its own - the naïve android, ever optimistic, ready to take on a world he didn't quite understand. And with that, after a few more months of supervised heroics with his new gimmick, it was off to Saint Academy.
  • Miscellaneous:
    • As the design of his power-armor may indicate, yes - Alex is absolutely furry trash. Make of that what you will.
    • He livestreams his heroics - or rather, as it were, Rhythm's heroics - as has been indicated several times in this bio. Generally speaking, owing to the audience he already had from his music, he pulls in a couple dozen viewers on most days, maybe breaking a hundred on a particularly good day.
    • As may also be clear, he puts a good amount of effort into maintaining the illusion on camera that he and Rhythm are two separate people, complete with a fake backstory for Rhythm as being an experimental android designed to be the perfect hero. Of course, the vast majority of those who tune in are well aware of the truth, and Alex knows it - it's more of a pro-wrestling type situation, where it's simply a lot more entertaining to play along with the 'storyline' as it were.

SOUL KING BROOK
#75: Oct 29th 2021 at 10:30:36 AM

Real Name: Noah Rodriguez

Superhero Name: Ark

Age: 15-16

Race: Human

Appearance: Noah has short, messy blonde hair, green eyes, and is about 6'3". His outfit consists of a white button-up shirt with suspenders clipped to black polo pants, along with a red tie and black shoes. He has filed teeth, which he thought would be super cool but kind of regrets because eating hard candy and such can be a bit of a challenge.

Personality: Always putting on a show. Very theatrical, and is usually using his charisma to it's fullest. Loves gambling, especially high-stakes. Can remain composed in most situations, and when he does lose composure, he fights in a rather bitter, disconnected manner. Loves making new friends, and is always up to chill and play a game or two.

Powers: Main ability is Perception Warping. In summary, Noah can induce auditory and/or visual hallucinations in others, although the more severe the hallucination, the more it drains Noah. He mainly uses this to disorient the enemy and induce fear. He is also rather manipulative and charismatic when need be, and can act as a sort of scout/spy, although that's more a trait than a full-on ability.

Gear: Weighted dice, butterfly knife (emergencies only), brass knuckles, gambling chips, baseball bat.

Backstory: Noah grew up in Vegas, exposed to casino life at a young age and growing used to it quickly. He knew how to play poker by nine. However, there was another thing he learned in that city. People could *really* suck sometimes. There was no specific moment he could pin down of when he realized he wanted to be a hero. Maybe it was when his best friend got jumped on the way home from school. Maybe it was when he watched that news segment about the building that had been burnt down to the ground. Who knows. All that mattered to him was getting into Saint's. Thank God he's good under pressure.

Lemme know any changes i need to make and i'll be happy to make 'em!
