The Freaks OOC: We're back.

This sheet is Lonestar approved.

Hm... His powers are similar to Ryan's, who has technokineses, but this is an excellent sheet and that is a very cool power. I like how it's an organic device thst does synthetic things. Accepted.

Vipera, when you get around to it, I posted with Irene. This should be some interesting development.

I already posted a response

so when would a good time to post be? cuz I don't want a repeat of my last attempt to join a large active rp.

Oh, whenever is good stalker. Where I'd your character going to start? Anywhere is good, though larger cities will be more fun. If you've ever been to Seattle, LA, or New York and remember what they look like, they'd work best, but stick with what you know.

Nope Largest City i've been to is Louisville, Ky. But yeah. It's nice to be able to finally RP for real again.

I'll have a post up Tomorrow afternoon. Sometime after two i think. I'm a bit too tired to d it tonight. I like to make long entry posts. They tend to be the longest I ever make in an RP.

Maxx, I know I have five of them already, but the thing is that none of my characters are genuine villains, or will be villains for the entire duration of the RP, from my point of view. Would you be willing to let me make a sixth character? I came up with this cool power while I was brainstorming, and I feel like I have to try it. It's pretty wild, but it should make an excellent addition to Marshall's team.

Vipes, I never established a character limit. You can in theory make as many characters as you'd like. Just don't overbook yourself.

I'm pretty good at controlling a huge number of characters, besides, I wouldn't make so many unless I knew what I was doing.

Okay. I trust that you'll be able to do it.

Most likely, I'm almost done with this character, and before I post his sheet, I'm going to let you know ahead of time that he is absolutely pure evil. If any of the protagonist characters, even some of the villains, listen to him voice his opinions of the world, they'll probably feel sort of repulsed, maybe even a little ill. This character is strong, cunning, and probably deeply disturbed beyond the understanding of any psychologist on the planet.

EDIT: Okay, here's my character, Void. Keep in mind that his most unique ability will not ever be used on a PC without permission, to keep him from being OP. It's a crazy idea I came up with, but I don't want him to be too powerful. Even then, though, he's a pretty dangerous character to run into.

Name: Tyson ‘Void’ Stonewall
Age: 18
Gender: Male

Appearance: Tyson in many ways seems to be some sort of reptile, although his build is oddly similar to that of the extinct Paraceratherium, also commonly referred to as the giant giraffe rhinoceros. He displays a strong, heavily-built appearance, his front legs being much longer than his hind legs. At the shoulder, he measures 16’0” feet tall, and from nose to tail, he is about 30’0” feet, although most of this length is his tail and neck. His legs are long and thick, being very column-like. His feet appear to be a combination of human hands and feet, and the traditional odd-toed hoof of a rhino. Although his front legs can be used to grasp things, the fingers are short and stubby, more useful for walking than handling things. His tail is much like a lizard’s, being extremely thick and muscular. His skull appears to be like a rhinoceros’ as well, however, he does not have a horn or visible ears, and instead has an under bite, his lower jaw jutting out with long needle-like fangs. He has four small eyes, two on each side of his head. His leathery skin, overall, is very thick, and folds at various parts of his body, in a fashion similar to the Indian rhinoceros. Most unique about his appearance, however, is that on his back, he appears to have a network of thick, vein-like structures, which also form a ring-shape on his back, albeit warped in shape to smooth down over his shoulders. Instead of skin within this ring, there appears to be a pure black substance, which does not reflect light, but seems to be similar to oil, and yet defies gravity and retains its shape. The veins form a similar structure on Tyson’s belly, however, this ring is perfectly formed, and like the spot on his back, filled with the strange black substance as well.

Tyson’s main coloration is a dark shade of greyish brown, sometimes compared in color to the shades of sandstone, and giving him a rocky appearance. However, the vein-like structures that cover his body are a darker color, and inside the rings they form, the strange substance is pure black, sometimes characterized to be similar to oil, although others consider it to be like a void, or solidified darkness. Tyson’s nails, as well as his teeth and the inside of his mouth, are a black color, although they do not appear to be rotten or infected with fungus, and there appears to be a complete emptiness at the back of his throat. His four eyes are a bright shade of golden-yellow.

Personality: Tyson is a rather cold-hearted person, and unlike most meta-humans, who typically care about their general impression on the public for a variety of reasons, he could care less, either way. This is because, while people may call him a meta-human, Tyson’s deep hatred of humans has led him to deny ever being one, although he was born one, and mutated at the very early age of five years. Strengthening his seemingly inhuman behavior, he appears to lack compassion, not caring if his actions result in the injury or death of others, even if they were a close comrade, and never reacting to anything with genuine sadness, although on occasions he may feign it, if only to manipulate those that he sees as weak-minded, or to scare those he does not like in a mocking fashion, which may very well account for 99% of the planet’s population. Despite denying any claim that he was once human, Tyson sometimes knowingly contradicts his previous statements, stating that he is in fact more human than the humans themselves, because he has accepted that humans truly have an evil, sadistic nature deep down, and that they only delude themselves into believing they have good in their hearts. As a result, one of the many views about Tyson, depending on how one looks at him, is that he is either very wise, or so incredibly insane that there is no diagnosis in the medical books, although he might be a psychopath, and most people go with the latter option. Despite his views, Tyson is extremely intelligent, and very witty, easily winning arguments, and outsmarting enemies, although his appearance suggests an unintelligent beast. The ease at which Tyson speaks of his views of the world, however, is supposedly so potent and vile, that when he is lecturing particularly ‘good’ people that he can actually make them feel physically ill. He is also particularly sadistic, finding it entertaining to see victims squirm, especially people considered to be on the right side of the law, or morally proper, and preferring to torment them emotionally or mentally, rather than physically, in a way. When speaking, Tyson typically keeps his voice very even, hardly ever raising it above a normal volume, and even when insulting people, he somehow manages to belittle them to an extreme by using minor insults, suggesting that even when they try to bother him, they mean nothing at all.

Despite this general behavior, Tyson still accepts that he cannot fend off everyone by himself, and due to the fact that he would rather not have to deal with leading a group of fools, he prefers to follow orders, although in secret he will probably laugh at them. Because of this, he makes an excellent ally, or rather, mercenary, as his loyalty is never assured. Despite even the worst of people not wanting to employ Tyson because of his personality, his skill set is always very useful. Due to the fact that ‘Tyson’ is a human name, he prefers to be called ‘Void’ because it is not a human name, and suits his powers.

Abilities: Tyson’s powers as a whole are very unique. Due to his thick skin and large size, it is relatively difficult to inflict injury with physical blows, sharp blades, or even blasts of energy. While he is strong enough to do things like break through solid brick or concrete walls, and bend metal bars, he seldom uses his physical abilities, due to seeing such attacks as crude and inefficient. Instead, he relies on his other abilities. The strange opening on his back, filled with the pitch black, oil-like substance, that might just be liquefied darkness, is perhaps one of his most dangerous weapons, more lethal than his teeth or strength. Using his powers, Void can actually manipulate this liquid shadow into a variety of different shapes, and the amount he can extract from his back seems on many occasions to be much more than the capacity his body could contain, although it appears to be that his body is hollow, and filled with the substance. Using this power, he can form appendages or structures that will aid him in a fight, and can even produce tiny shadow replicas of small creatures, like birds or mice, and use them to spy on people, although he can only form so many, as he has to be able to split his focus to control them. When he is done using a generated appendage, it will return back to the originating source.

The similar round ring on Tyson’s stomach is also the feature that gave him his name. Unlike his back, however, this ring does not form appendages, and serves a different function. When in using this ring, Tyson will balance on his hind legs and face his opponent or victim. Once in use, the ring will generate a powerful vacuum, sucking things into it, and eventually, if they can no longer resist, the person or creature Tyson is targeting, although the same works for energy blasts. Tyson can only absorb one victim or bit of energy at a time, and cannot use this ability again until he spits his previous victim back out, freeing them, and losing all powers he gained from having them imprisoned. After absorbing something, however, Tyson is able to redirect attacks back at his foes, or, if it was a creature, assimilate its abilities. As a result, his name ‘Void’ applies to the quality of the place where the victims wind up, which is a completely black and empty place, implying that if his body is not hollow, that the spots on his stomach and back are actually portals to some sort of pocket realm, and it is likely that a third exists at the back at his throat. Reinforcing this fact is that he cannot be injured by those he traps inside. This power is also useful in that he can trap anyone and use them as a hostage, or even serve as a sort of living prison. However, the downside to this power is that the spot on his stomach is extremely vulnerable when not in use, and he can be hurt if he tries to suck in inanimate objects, such as large rocks or trees. He can also not imprison creatures that do not fit through the opening, although most things slightly larger than a human being will fit.

A minor ability Tyson possesses is a sort of mild immunity to those with telepathy or empathy. Due to the workings of his mind, telepaths or people with empathy must be extremely strong, as looking at his mind or emotions is considered to be extremely disturbing, leading to people feeling physically ill or sick. A truly strange skill is that, as long as a telepath is inside Tyson’s mind, there is also a risk of him actually becoming aware of it, and actively trying to either shut them out, or even use the telepath’s own powers against them. Despite this, Tyson does not have any telepathy of his own.

Um, Vipera, I don't think I can accept this. Unlike your other animal characters who at least somewhat resemble humans, this character bears no resemblance to humans at all. I like the character a lot, and he's really cool looking, but this is an RP about human mutants, not mutated animals (though I've been thinking about making one of those too). I'm sorry, but he's not human enough, so I must decline his sheet.

Maxx, your opinion is confusing me. Did you think that Tyson was an animal originally? He was in fact a human at one point, however, my reasoning is that if he was a human in the past, and he genuinely hates humans for whatever reason, that he would eventually deny being one. Re-reading the sheet, I guess I was sort of vague about it, so I'll re-word it.

EDIT: Okay, the sheet is re-worded. How does it sound now? I hope it doesn't annoy you that I only really made a few changes to the personality section, but I worked very hard on this character, and I want to make it so he can be accepted.

Hey sorry about not posting today. Been hanging out with my sister all day. Only get to see her once a month so yeah..... I'll try to post later tonight if possible.

Vipera, I don't mean personality-wise. I mean appearance. He doesn't resemble a human at all. Your other characters did more or less, but he's a quadrupedal rhino giraffe that does not physically resemble a human. It's a very cool character, but it's too far.

Well, then, I'll try to alter the appearance, but it'll still be pretty freakish.

Fine, but he needs to be humanoid. Maybe he could be a two-legged rhino-man kind of thing. I'd allow that.

That rhino-giraffe is very cool though. I'm guessing it's an Ice age animal?

No, not really, that was the wooly rhino you're thinking of. I based his appearance off of this picture, although I guess I should have said the front legs bend differently. He never really had anything to deal with a giraffe, it was the name of the rhino:



EDIT: Okay, I edited his appearance so that he's more gorilla-like in stance. Now he can switch between a quadruped and bipedal stance. He technically needs to be able to do both for his abilities to work as properly as I want them to. Again, the power related to the opening on his stomach will not be used on a PC without consent from the controller.

Name: Tyson ‘Void’ Stonewall
Age: 18
Gender: Male

Appearance: Tyson in many ways seems to be some sort of massive humanoid reptile or rhino hybrid. He displays a strong, heavily-built appearance, his arms being longer than a normal human’s, giving him a somewhat gorilla-like stance, and allowing him to switch between a quadruped and bipedal stance without any strain. At the shoulder, he measures 16’0” feet tall, and from nose to tail, he is about 20’0” feet, although most of this length is his tail and neck. His feet are vaguely reminiscent of a human’s, having five toes, however, each foot is somewhat shorter and stubbier, looking as though it were fused with the hoof of a rhino, and likewise, his thick, column-like legs also bend more like the animal’s than the human’s, although they are still capable of supporting the body when walking upright. Tyson’s hands, like his feet, also appear to be fused with the hoof of a rhino, the fingers being slightly stubby, and the nails being larger and thicker, allowing him to run on them when on all fours without injury to his palms. His tail is much like a lizard’s, being extremely thick and muscular, and capable of being swung at surprising speeds. His skull appears to be like a rhinoceros’ as well, however, he does not have a horn or visible ears, and he instead has an under bite, his lower jaw jutting out with long needle-like fangs. He has four small eyes, two on each side of his head. His leathery skin, overall, is very thick, and folds at various parts of his body, in a fashion similar to the Indian rhinoceros. Most unique about his appearance, however, is that on his entire body, he appears to have a network of thick, vein-like structures that in some cases look almost like thick netting, which also form a ring-shape on his back, albeit warped in shape to smooth down over his shoulders. Instead of skin within this ring, there appears to be a pure black substance, which does not reflect light, but seems to be similar to oil, and yet defies gravity and retains its shape.

Odd, but I guess I'll accept him.

Yeah, it's still a little odd, but I re-designed the jaw so he's got these upward-pointing fangs, which is kind of scary, when you think about it.

I'm working on a new character and a new OP. I just posted as well.

I just posted a reply, as well.

EDIT: Also, for reference, this is how I imagine Tyson's appearance. I took some time to draw him on GIMP.

Hm... I think I'm going to give this character the ability to transform/talk to birds. She's going to be a recruitment assistant for Dante and a wildlife photographer in training, as well as Ramiel's girlfriend.

Okay, then. When is there going to be a recruiter for Angus and Tyson? Both are probably going to have a reputation that leads you right to them. Of course, I think no matter who it is, they're going to be scared of Tyson, because he looks like something from a nightmare.

Marshall will go after Tyson then, as he's never scared. Angus...um, not sure. I might have Annabel (my new character) break off and go get him when Dante and Caden leave to find lemontea.
