All three sheets are accepted, since I've read two of them before. Please put them in separate posts (Or at least the Nightingale) for proper indexing.

Riley's sheet
Spoiler:
Basic Information
Name: He would never tell you his true name. But the name the Old Guard knows him by is Tahoma (Water's Edge), and the name he goes by now is Riley. Nickname/Alias: Riley, The Medicine Man, and, in certain groups of people who are not as civilized as we are, "The Hound" Gender: Male Age: Looks to be about 20. Height: 6 feet exactly. In lieu of two yard sticks, one can use Riley to measure distances. Weight: 183.
Riley is, as you may have discerned from his height and weight, someone who hasn't been missing many meals. He's built wide, with muscles that are noticeable under a tight shirt, but not to the degree of professional bodybuilders. He's in good shape, essentially, but this is usually concealed by his mannerisms and the way he dresses. To rephrase that, he doesn't walk like he's ripped or strong. He walks casually and lazily, slow-paced despite the environment around him, and dresses in a way that doesn't emphasize his better physical traits. Riley's face is round, with prominent cheeks and slightly almond shaped eyes. His skin is a deep tan, and were it not for his more distinctive Native American features he could likely be mistaken for a Hispanic. Riley has a few scars on his body, however these are not usually visible-the nastiest is a "splotch" that resembles an almost necrotic burn mark on his left side, towards the hip. His hair is long, reaching down to his shoulders, and he usually keeps it back in a ponytail if he needs to do anything serious, otherwise preferring to let it hang. His bangs (do you call them bangs for guys? I'm not smart about hair) look crudely cut, as if they were sliced off with a knife, and his eyes frequently wander across his surroundings. Perhaps taking the scenery in, perhaps analyzing it in a more tactical manner.
Attire:
Old blue jeans, held up by a thick leather belt. His feet are normally concealed in rather sturdy looking moccasins or leather boots. He frequently wears an undershirt or t-shirt fit for working out in underneath his jacket, which is the most constant aspect of his wardrobe. The jacket is a leather jacket, resembling a motorcycle jacket, but the inside is lined with different animal furs. It isn't particularly fashionable, but it's probably warm as hell in the winter.
Personality
Outward Personality: Riley is, for the most part, easygoing and calm. He has a tendency to stay levelheaded regardless of the situation, which is rather annoying in somber situations (i.e. funerals). He speaks slowly but intelligently, as if he's thought over what he's said several times before speaking, and tends to avoid confrontation and arguments if he is able to. Riley has a few traits inherent to his tribe, mainly that of avoiding contact with dead bodies. This isn't really an aspect of his personality that he would consider crucial, but given that we're in a RP with superpowered kids, I assume the body count's going to shoot up fairly quickly. Riley is determined and unyielding in some regards-he is willing to discuss most things, but it is evident on some topics he will not budge. He's fairly quick on his feet but isn't incredibly gifted when it comes to book smarts-one would be correct in assuming he didn't finish high school.
Hobbies/Interests: He's taking up cigar smoking and several quaint hobbies to pass the time, including whittling. For the most part, his life is a bit too tightly scheduled to allow much room for hobbies, so it's a matter of carving when he gets a few free minutes. Riley enjoys walking around in nature and also simply wandering-he enjoys setting out with no destination in mind. Skills/Talents: Riley is skilled with his own particular brand of weaponry: knives, tomahawks, and bows and arrows. Beyond that, his ability to track is both a natural talent and a result of his superhuman abilities. He has a way of setting people at ease and is, to put it bluntly, good at fighting. The rough and dirty kind. Goals: To protect and provide for Chloe. Everything else is optional. He may also be in debt-perhaps, just perhaps, with some very bad people. History/Bio: Riley's life, both starts-and I am willing to bet, will end-in blood. Favorite color: Prized Possession: Chloe.
Relationships
Family: All dead, lost in the deserts of the West. Friends: Chlo. Enemies: His employers and anyone who dresses like/acts like a cowboy. Lovers: Take one guess. Marital Status: Things gettin' pretty serious and CENSORED.
Other: Without being "that guy" I would caution any other RP'ers against attacking Riley.

Chloe's Sheet
Spoiler:
Basic Information
Name: Chloe Drakos Nickname/Alias: Riley is fond of throwing names from Greek mythology at her, but the criminal underworld has taken a liking to "The Harrier" Gender: Male Age: 19 Height: 5'6 Weight: 130
Appearance
Hair Color: Let's just say it's prone to change. Eye Color: Let's just say it's prone to change. Ethnicity: Greek. Claims to be a descendant of the mighty Spartans, but whether that's true or her talking out of her ass is anyone's guess (Riley, likewise, enjoys making claims that Tonto from the Lone Ranger was his grandfather) Physical Appearance:
Olive-skinned and dark eyed, Chloe is strikingly gorgeous. At least, she would be, if her personality didn't seep through her physical characteristics and taint her appearance. The scowl that is nearly always plastered on her round, smooth face makes it quite clear that she's pissed off, and that anyone who makes a pass at her is likely to walk away without certain organs they hold dear. Chloe is lean and fit, which is normally accentuated by her athletic-style attire. She's slightly curvy, but either genetics or lifestyle choices keep her from a full hourglass figure. However, she doesn't need it-as previously mentioned, she's beautiful, albeit exotic. I'm not being racist with the exotic comment (or sexist with the hourglass figure comment), they're both relevant to her power. Chloe's hair and eyes are very prone to changing colors, which usually draws attention away from her features: people tend to notice when one's hair changes from violet to crimson during the course of a conversation. Of course, good luck having a conversation with Chloe in the first place. She moves quickly and with a purpose, hands close to weapons tucked away or balled into fists. She has a natural grace to her step, as if she's floating rather than walking, but she's normally in too much of a hurry to play to her strengths in that regard. She radiates irritation and anger, and only seems to be at ease in the presence of Riley. How sweet.
Attire:
Typically, she's not too worried about being stylish, but Chloe tends to add a bit of style to whatever she wears. Her normal garb is a plain t-shirt and shorts, good for jogging or ass-kicking, and if she's about to, shall we say, "rock and roll", then she'll wear more practical clothing, such as a black, long-sleeved shirt, black jeans, a MOLLE vest and keep her ever-changing hair pinned back and her ever-changing eyes masked behind sunglasses. The Harrier doesn't CENSORED around when it comes to her rather brutal line of work.
Personality
Outward Personality: "CENSORED off." Hobbies/Interests: "No, seriously. CENSORED. Off." Skills/Talents: She's usually quite good at driving people away with very few words. Her vocabulary is mostly profanities and the occasional ethnic slur, depending on who she's dealing with. Chloe is also a skilled markswoman and has a very tactically-focused mind, constantly eyeing escape routes and chokepoints. Whilst she's normally rather...irritated...she does mellow into a cold focus when things start to heat up around her, and she's reliable and steady in a crisis. Goals: To protect and provide for Riley. History/Bio: "I'm not going to tell you to CENSORED yourself again, I'm just going to cut off the parts you part you hold dear and then-" Favorite color: Prized Possession: Riley. There is also a small silver ring she wears that is presumably a gift from him.
Relationships
Family: A family, with whom she has not maintained contact with. Mother, father, and a twin sister. Friends: Riley, mute people Enemies: Literally every other human being on earth Lovers: Riley Marital Status: Things gettin' pretty serious
Other: "CENSORED off!"

Normally don't frequent chatboxes, mostly because I had to stay away from them on that other forum. I'm not sure who is who since they all change their usernames three or four times a day so I kind of guess who everybody is over there, made the chatbox interesting. Old habits die hard.
Also that was a somewhat unnecessarily long intro post for Chloe/Riley/The Nightingale, my apologies. And also apologies for the RP'ers in the park, whose lovely scene I just interrupted so rudely.
And the Nightingale, Chloe, and Riley are all available for hire, provided your character has a bit of money to back it up.

All three are hitmen?
May the Watcher pursue them for their crime-breaking?

He can, but they're good. Chloe and Riley are exceptionally hard to kill and the Nightingale covers her tracks pretty well with her fake identity/the fact she only does jobs whilst concealed. As previously mentioned, she just doesn't give off a "I kill people for money" vibe.
They're all technically hitmen, yeah. The Nightingale is more in the vein of assassin, sneaking in somewhere-bigger jobs are more up her alley. The other two are entangled in the mob, and are relocating to Black Falls in an attempt to scrounge up some cash to pay off some debts. Getting out of organized crime is tricky, especially given that they joined up out of desperation, got in deep, and the fact they're metahuman makes them valuable assets, regardless of age. Child soldiers, albeit slightly different looking ones. They usually do low-scale hits or intimidation type stuff. At the moment, hitting up Caden for employment offers, but someone else could potentially sway them.

You guys know Faith is probably going to freak out, right? ... I'm gonna wait for operator to reply before posting though. XD have I mentioned how much I love posting as someone who dislikes it when people talk to her? 'Cause it is actually quite entertaining.

Maxx, how does the Watcher know who Caden even is? Caden has barely even done anything yet and he's only been in Black Fall for a few weeks. More importantly he's been keeping a very low profile.

Hey, are Riley and Chloe telepaths? Because it will affect my next post.
I'll give you guys some hints. Nick has a few more, interesting powers besides gravity. One of which you'll never see coming. That's all I will say.

*jumps in before Silent* yes, they are:3 At least Im positive Riley is... Pretty sure Chloe is. By the time I joined the rp they came from chloe wasn't in it much afterwards due to an unfortunate incident so I don't know much about her, so the Chloe statement is mainly a guess You know what? Just ignore me and wait for him to explain it cause I'm confusing myself here

I just remembered this.... But, Caden is immune to telepathy due to his other power.
Hmm... Perhaps I could say that he let his guard down in the favor of not f*cking this all up.

I added Nick's first power to his character sheet. Finishing the post now. It's not very long, but ohwell.

How do Riley and Chloe know who Caden is? The criminal underground is...thorough. In a post or two The Watcher will realize that the other two are The Hound and Harrier.

Still, that doesn't answer my question on how the Watcher knows that he's a "Pest." When Caden hasn't done anything to be regarded as a "pest." The only thing he's really done was recruit people and harass Sage every now and then.
It's fine if the Watcher knows who Riley and Chloe are, but I'm a bit skeptical on him knowing who Caden is.

Riley and Chloe know the general profile of who Caden is through his physical appearance and, if it's alright with you, the fact that telepathy doesn't work on him, which pretty much confirms it's him.
Riley is capable of reading people's thoughts to an extent, yes. Chloe is not.
And yeah, that unfortunate little incident with the giant lizard. Poor Chloe.
EDIT: Ah, Lone, I see your confusion now. I meant for Riley's thoughts in that post to be inner monologue rather than telepathy, but I didn't make that clear. From now on I'll distinguish telepathic messages from regular thoughts, my apologies. It was more of a message he was trying to get across through body language rather than a concrete mental transmission. Lo siento, errybody

I did too! He was really fun to RP as, mostly because I had absolutely no idea what I should do with his character, hahaha. I really need to be better to my characters, they pretty much all get killed off in terrible, terrible ways.
Also, I'm slightly confused, how did the Watcher know they were telepaths?

They thought-spoke to him, didn't they? It's rather obvious that someone's a telepath when you hear them talk without their lips moving.
