Earth Bet, Land of the Shards, of Parahumans, and of Worm. It is the home of Cauldron, the Gesellschaft, and the Yàngbǎn. The Endbringers roam the land, bringing destruction everywhere they appear.

You all know the story. Taylor Hebert gets Bug powers, and eventually kills a god, saving the world... to an extent, at least.

But what if a third party was introduced, an unforeseen factor, one that might be able to change the story, for better or for worse? That's where you come in. Armed with unique powers, you may just be able to alter the course of events, to bring about a better future...

---------------------------------------------

Greetings, & welcome to my Worm RP. Basically, you're SI'd into Brockton Bay with powers and whatever metaknowledge you have, and must do whatever you can to -- hopefully -- save the world. In order to determine your power, you will submit two generic powers (think Flight, Invisibility, Super-strength, Shapeshifting, Telekinesis, et cetera) and I will combine them into one unique power. I'll be accepting 4-6 players.

---------------------------------------------

Rules:
  1. Be kind to each other. Assholes are not appreciated.
  2. No Godmodding.
  3. What the GM says, goes.

Character Sheet:

Name: (What is your name?)
Personality: (Describe what sort of person you are, preferably in at least a paragraph)
Goals: (Explain what your goals on Earth Bet are upon being SI'd)
Appearance: (Images and Descriptions both work, but images are preferred. You're SI'd, but your body is altered to however you like it)

Unique Power: (Leave this space blank until I give you your power)

    • Name: Peter Emile

    Personality: An honourable hedonist, consumed with his own entertainment should he, at first, do no harm. His interest is primarily in the frustration of Law Enforcement for his own entertainment, his own indulgences of vices like alcohol, fine food, and other idle amusements.

    He sees no harm in white collar, 'victimless' crimes, as there is no tangible injury done to a single person. More readily, he does not view anyone who opposes him as shielded under his belief in doing no harm, instead viewing it as the price of opposing him.

    Finally, he has a deep compassion for those who suffer spiritual pain and confusion, instead wishing to guide them to their own conclusions, interrogating what they believe. In this, he is akin to a true nihilist, not the posers who deny meaning. Better to find one's own.

    Goals: Get Rich, Entertain Myself, Play long distance romantic chicken with Mouse Protector

    Appearance: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/557058149509627935/564500069819088907/image0.png

    Six feet, six inches tall, pale malachite green eyes, moderate build.

    Generic Powers: Technopathy, Superhuman Intelligence

    Unique Power:
    You can access computer systems within 10m mentally, and can use their processing power as your own.

    • Name: Will aka Nihilo
    Personality: When out and about among strangers, he is a bottomless well of apathy. Get his interest and he'll turn into a cheerfully insane ball of energy more than happy to talk your ear off. He is a degenerate through and through, which he takes pride in, although unless he feels comfortable he will keep his powerlevel firmly under wraps. He is also a consummate troll and reaction junkie, as anyone with the misfortune of being stuck with him for any length of time can attest to. His weirdness threshold is best described as "yes", he claims it is due to taking the scientific method to heart, "there's no such thing as breaking the laws of reality, just proving that they aren't as we thought. Conservation of mass can be bypassed? Neat, strike that law out of the current paradigm and get to work on figuring out where the next discernable limit is". Then again, if Cthulhu walked up to him and invited him over for tea he'd accept in a heartbeat, so it may just be him being too insane to phase.
    Goals: Give the lives of the resident woobies a thorough unfucking, hand out headaches like party favours.
    Appearance: This minus the glasses.
    Generic Powers: Combat Projection ala Stand + Biokinesis
    Unique Power: Can create semi-real projections in any form, and they can change willing people into their specific form by "possessing" them (doesn't actually control will). Can be used to heal by making pristine replicas of target. Works on self. Projections look completely real and can interact with physical matter. Quantity limit of 2. Size limit of 3 cubic meters per projection. Cannot modify already summoned projections, must dismiss and re-summon them in their new form.

    Personality: Mostly a normal person that found himself with powers in a situation that require him to use those powers. He has his opinion, as everyone else, and he strive to listen to everyone before making judgments. He can't stand nazis, automatically dismissing whatever they say as propaganda-driven babbles.
    He doesn't like dogs and prefer cats, really likes to read and listen to music. Now that he has powers that are similar to magic - from his point of view - , he is planning of styling himself as a magic-minded hero like Myrddin.

    Generic Powers: Environmental Manipulation and Telekinesis

    • Great, the kind of RP I love. What's the upper power limit? Somewhere around triumvirate level or lower?

    Name: Johanna Katrin Hausmann

    Personality:
    Johanna always has an impact on her immediate surroundings, she generally loves to be the center of attention. For example; If an audience member is asked to come on stage, she would volunteer herself or volunteer a shy friend. She would move from group to group in a gathering, laughing and entertaining with a blunt and earthy humor.

    Theory, abstract concepts and plodding discussions about global issues and their implications don't keep Johanna interested for long. She keeps her conversations energetic, with a good dose of intelligence, but she likes to talk about what is, or better yet, to just go out and do it. She leaps before she looks, fixing her mistakes as she goes, rather than sitting idle, preparing contingencies and escape clauses.

    Johanna makes a lifestyle of risky behavior. She lives in the moment and dives into the action, she is the eye of the storm. She enjoys drama, passion, and pleasure, not for emotional thrills, but because it's so stimulating to her logical mind. She is forced to make critical decisions based on factual, immediate reality in a process of rapid-fire rational stimulus response.

    With perhaps the most perceptive, unfiltered view of any type, the type of people like her have a unique skill in noticing small changes. Whether a shift in facial expression, a new clothing style, or a broken habit, she picks up on hidden thoughts and motives where most other people would be lucky to pick up anything specific at all. She'd use these observations immediately, calling out the change and asking questions, often with little regard for sensitivity. She should remember that not everyone wants their secrets and decisions broadcast.

    Goals:
    To accomplish something within this world with the power given to me. I have to earn this power, even though I already have it. This world will push my mind to the limit in keeping calm and making logical decisions.

    Appearance:

    Johanna has crimson long hair ending past the shoulders that parts to reveal a determined and confident face. She has vibrant green eyes, set a-symmetrically within their sockets, watching sharply and with uncanny precision over her environment. She has flawless soft fair skin gracefully complimenting her nose and mouth. Her entire physical appearance is supernatural and so despite being beautiful, she looked almost inhuman due to that supernatural perfection that is sure to garner both positive and negative reactions.

    Generic Powers:
    Energy Manipulation
    Supernatural Condition

    Unique Power:
    You can control any energy, but only one at a time, and you gain a superhuman trait associated with it.

    • Name: Batel

    Personality: an optimistic realist who is endlessly curious about the nature of people, the point of life, philosophy, and all sorts of sciences, mostly in how they can be used in stories, very practical, and generally pacifistic. Rather friendly and a major motormouth when it comes to topics that excite her.

    Is a firm believer of choice ("the ability to choose is what makes people, people.")

    the idea that there is a place for everyone ("If God is the truest good, then surely he would recognize gray areas. He would put people where they would be happiest.")

    and refuses to lose sight of the light at the end of the tunnel ("Hope is one of the biggest reasons people carry on. Of course there is hate and spite, but I don't like either of those, they are too divisive in my books.").

    on the flip side, she has never understood people all that well, has mild depression, and is rather clingy to those she gets close to.


    Goals: Figure out the mysteries of tinkertech ("tech that can't be reproduced? sounds like a puzzle to be figured out!")

    further understand people ("I've never really understood people all that well, but that isn't going to stop me from trying!")

    • Name:Erskine Macbride "Shadow Weaver"
    Personality: He's goal oriented. Knowing that in the end. The Prt's prorecruitment Strategy is right. That second opportunities are necessary and that he himself would be glad to have the hand be offered when he does wrong. That being said he does know some people are irrideemable like the S9. But offering opportunity and a gentle hand isn't always possible but should be pursued. That being said he is also very goal oriented he tends to prioritize planning and sticking to his plans.

    • Name: Sol Walsh
    Personality: Quiet awkward when meeting people for the first time but becomes much more animated once he gets to know them better. The manifests as more openness to personal facts and beliefs and a form of joking sarcasm that is purely meant in good. When faced with an uncomfortable situation, Sol often quotes or makes references to fictional works as a way to rationalize and put in perspective the situation as best he can. His hobby's are far inclined towards more physical activities with predominant one being hiking and to lesser extent, just walking. He tends to clear his mind when doing and listening to a hither to unknown track only helps him focus his thoughts. However, he can be extremely intensive when working on a project, often being short with people who disrupt him when he's on a roll.


    Now, in a new body, he just has to figure out how to handle the madness that is before him. Actually scratch that, there are so many things wrong with administrations of Worm. Yes, they had they're points but they were ultimately ruined by the shards interference and the shortsighted nature of those behind the scene. No that needs to change... and that change will start with the bay.

    Goals:
    • Golden Afternoon: Survive Golden Morning...
    • Leave them Kids alone!: Kill Teacher and prevent the takeover off Dragon and remove the dragon slayers by extension
    • Improving The bay Independently: Begin to establish a series of independent capes that would clean up the bay without red tape restrictions from both criminal and cape criminal which would lead into...

    • Sadistic Ken - Noob
  • Threadmarks
    • Name: Ken
    Personality: A simple child, Ken is what most people would call not all that much (AKA, not much of an impressionable child), but the thing is...he's mostly putting himself down around family members and those he sees as family. Unfortunately, that's caused him to build up all kinds of thoughts and emotions all to himself and tends to vent at convenient times and in sporadic fashions. Sometimes he just begins letting tears flow from his face silently, other times he just smiles creepily while laughing madly. From sad stories or people he hates suffering, it only takes some form of trigger for somethings to end up happening. Other than that, he is just a very very emotionless child. Not really saying much, not even making much noise while going out of the sight of others. (He has made his family question how and when he get to somewhere without them noticing)

    ...Also, in spite of him 'putting himself down', he doesn't have a tolerance for people stealing from him. Punch him, stab him, he's got some level of 'used to it'. Steal even a dollar from him, and he will hunt the thief down before pummeling them into a bleeding mess. Unless it's clearly stated they weren't stealing from him, he basically puts a thief on the same level as a bug. And he tends to vent sadistic thoughts on bugs in particular.
    Goals: Find his own place in Brockton Bay.
    ...find his own path in life in general.
    Vent himself of the heavy feelings still going on inside of him.
    Maybe make a friend or two.

    • Name: Rudolf Dymski

    Personality: He is a calm and non-confrontational person, preferring to avoid conflict if possible. To achieve this he oftentimes maintains a mask of politeness to prevent his anger, annoyance or other emotions from making him lose his composure and say or do the wrong thing. This however also means that he can be somewhat artificial during interactions if forced to feign patience. As a side effect he is slow to truly trust someone, since he knows how easy it is to just smile and pretend, so anyone could do this as well

    Curious and studious, he enjoys learning new things, especially history and science, something that had helped him excell during his education, hopefully providing him with a good life in the future. As such Rudolf likes to be regarded by others as smart, with any gaffes that may undermine this reputation hitting him far harder than most, such is reliance of his self-esteem on appearance of intelligence. Perhaps this is also why he enjoys the stories set in a magical past or advanced future, where people can do amazing things thanks to their mind and knowledge that allows them to bend the reality to their will, by means of magic or technology.

    Goals: Surviving the dangers of Earth Bet and the upcoming apocalypse, and hopefully making a decent life.

    Appearance:
    Generic Powers: Smoke Mimicry, Telekinetic Constructs.
