Up, Up and Away: A Superhero Crossover Game (Signup Thread)

Bringing in Mako's replacement sheet, though note Adam won't be brought in until I wrap up the Arachnos plot points I have on right now!

• Name: The First Man.
• Real Name: Adam.
• Gender: Male
• Age: Ancient
• Appearance: “Hell is forever◊ whether you like it or not!”
• Alignment: Saintly Villain
• Generation: Pre-First Age
• Personality: Despite being an angel and on the side of ‘good’, Adam is very egotistical and unsympathetic. Rude, condescending, hedonistic and sadistic, despite his blatantly unholy behavior, Adam considers himself infallible and righteous in his slaughter of sinners and demons, claiming they’re all entirely to blame for their plight, with a huge ego as well due to being the First Man. Even if he's nominally on the side of good due to his allegiance to Heaven, his zealotry, genocidal and murderous desires aimed at his descendants who sin would be too much for the heroic minded.
• Powers and Abilities:
  • Angelic Strength: With his ascendance to an Angel, the First Man holds great superstrength to stand his ground even against many physical powerhouses, whenever large or small.
  • Angelic Durability: Complimenting his Angelic powers, Adam is resistant to most common types of damage that would normally spell doom and misery to a normal human, though too much received at once and even he’ll be taken down. Additionally, divine damage, either from powers or angelic blessed weapons are capable of getting through this durability and heavily hurt him, harming him just like it would a normal human.
  • Flight: As expected from an angel, he’s capable of flying, whenever maneuvering to a destination, or in combat.
  • Holy Blasts: Adam is capable of creating blasts of holy light that if channeled at full power, could slice buildings in half, though this would exhaust him if used excessively. He could also channel the light through his guitar-axe to create blades of light that slice through any unfortunate targets.
  • Universal Understanding: As Adam predates the Tower of Babel, anyone listening to him understands him in their own native tongue, regardless of what that native tongue is.
  • Portal Creation: Adam is able to create portals to be able to travel to either Heaven or Hell, whenever to head back home or...go into some Extermination business. Note that it takes a few minutes to create it, so he can't use it to escape from a serious situation instantly.
• Weapons and Equipment:
  • Guitar-Axe: A shiny golden guitar…which can also be shifted into an axe for when Adam goes into combat. Sometimes you gotta shred some notes…and shred some sinners.
• Assets:
  • The Exorcists:◊ Adam’s private military force, these army of Angels are sent down to Hell every year to deal with its overpopulation issue of sinners with extreme prejudice. Most of Heaven is unaware of this Black Ops force except for a very few select of heaven’s elite, and while they normally restricted their activities to hell, the increased demonic presence on Earth has allowed Adam to deploy the Exorcists for some good old demon cleansing…and maybe let them kill some sinning descendants there and then.
  • Lute◊: Adam's second in command of the Exorcists, this angel while she presents herself as stoic and focused, is just as bloodthirsty and ruthless as Adam, and the two share a deep friendship, with both of them indulging and enabling their worst traits.
• Source: Hazbin Hotel
• Origin Story: The one and only Adam, the first man created in the world alongside Lilith, and the Father of Humanity. Despite this though, both of them had their differences, mainly due to Adam wanting to be the dominant one in the relationship, though the Angels of Heaven claim that it was the reverse. Whatever happened, it caused Lilith to leave Adam, as she was taken by Lucifer Morningstar and they fell in love. After Eve’s creation, Lucifer offered her the Apple of Knowledge, causing not only Lucifer and Lilith’s exilement to Hell, but Eve being banished from Eden. History is unclear of what happened afterwards, but it was known that Adam became the first human soul to ascend to heaven...though it was clear that the First Man had become cruel, ruthless and so much worse than how he was originally.
  • With his rise to Heaven, he suggested the idea of the Exorcists to the Seraphim Sera, to purge the overpopulation of sinners in hell so that they couldn't rise up against Earth and Heaven itself, though this was mainly done by him as a way to punish his sinning descendants, and as way to spite Lucifer and his former wife Lilith. But with today’s era rise of superheroes and powers, the unholy and demonic has also slowly manifested in Earth as well, leaving Sera to hesitantly allow Adam and the Exorcists to operate in Earth and eliminate any demonic presences…and maybe some sinners there and then if Adam feels like it. After all, fair is fair, an eye for an eye.
• Additional Notes: Having never eaten the Apple of Knowledge, Adam is quite literally unable to understand good from evil and right from wrong, which heavily explains his childlike mindset and not being able to understand why what he is doing is wrong.

Contingent on the fact that you don't abuse the powers at play against players and NPCs (and I think I've known you long enough to trust that you won't) Adam is Accepted.

Are signups open here?

Agh, I'm really sorry, Aleceone, but this game is well over capacity already. My other two games are open to new players, though, and Zodan has just put up the signup thread for a game he's running!

Gotcha, no worries!

That game is located here:
