The Valiants (Rated 12) - Application Thread

[Henshiner]

Sorry this took so long,:sweat: but I needed to think if I wanted to play an evil guy or not. Now, I think I'll give it a shot.



REAL NAME: Unknown, but will be revealed in time

AGE: Unknown, but will be revealed in time

D.O.B.: Unknown, but will be revealed in time

ETHNIC ORIGIN: Unknown, but will be revealed in time

OCCUPATION: International terrorist

ALIGNMENT: Evil

ALLEGIANCE: L.E.G.I.O.N.

ALIAS: Mephisto

POWERS:

• Capable of levitation over great but limited distances.
• Class 10 super strength (able to lift around 10 tons).
• His cybernetic suit is heavily armoured, and allows him a high level of endurance. Most bullets don’t hurt him, albeit some incendiary rounds can do minor damage, and the suit can even withstand missiles so long as it is not a direct impact.

WEAKNESSES: Mephisto is extremely cocky, and has a habit of celebrating his victories prematurely (which covers the classic villainous monologing), allowing his enemies to make a quick recovery. His powers stem from his suit’s nervous system (illuminated by its red, vein-like patterns), and requires a moderate temperature in order to function properly (the red light on his chest flashes when his power is running low).

GADGETS: Mephisto does not use weapons other than his armour, as he believes that a great king kills with only his fists.

REGULAR APPEARANCE: Mephisto’s full appearance is unknown, as nobody has seen him outside of his suit. One lackey stated they saw him without the suit, and a long scar ran down his back like a snake. That same lackey was found the next mornig dead.

COSTUME APPEARANCE:

PERSONALITY: Hot-headed, proud and narcissistic, believing himself to be the ultimate life form, superior to all others. A sociopath who kills for the orgasmic pleasure of it, feeling no remorse for the suffering of the innocent. He believes that he has earned his monstrous powers, and that it was destiny that gave him this ability to rule as he does. He despises those he sees as being weak, killing even his own lackeys should they fail to please him. He enjoys prolonging the suffering of his victims, often keeping them barely alive so he can torture them, despite the fact it would probably be in his best interest to kill them outright.

HISTORY: Very little is known regarding Mephisto or his post. Anyone who did hold information is now dead, along with their family, friends and even house pets. All that is known is that Mephisto appeared four years previously, in 1996, seemingly out of nowhere, and became notorious as a butchering killer, wiping out hundreds of soldiers, government officials and innocent civilians in the span of just two weeks. Through funds from an unknown benefactor, likely the same one who provided him with his cybernetic suit, he founded the underworld organisation L.E.G.I.O.N., and established himself as the self-proclaimed “New Napoleon of Crime.” Whenever a major crime is staged, it is almost certain that Mephisto is the one pulling the strings. It is a popular urban legend that he is tied to several political leaders, who give him supplies and lend him troops. The truth of the matter has yet to be revealed.


I'm sorry if he seems TOO powerful, I just think an enemy like him would give our heros a nice challenge.

REAL NAME: Unknown

AGE: Unknown

D.O.B. Unknown

ETHNIC ORIGIN: Unknown

OCCUPATION: International Terrorist

ALIGNMENT: L.E.G.I.O.N.

ALLEGIANCE: Evil

ALIAS: Mephisto

POWERS:
Ability to levitate, allowing him to fly great distances

Super strength, able to lift 10 tens max.

Super invulnerability, his skin is harder than steel

WEAKNESSES: Extremely cocky, his powers also begin to dissapate when exposed to extreme temperatures... thus making the UK a perfect place for a base. :169: Plus, his powers stem from highly sophisticated that covers his body. Take it away, and he is powerless.

GADGETS: Mephisto does not use weapons, in the belief that a great king should kill with his bare hands, but his body is covered with cybernetic armor, giving him the powers listed above.

REGULAR APPEARANCE: He has never removed his suit.

COSTUME APPEARANCE:

PERSONALITY: Extremely cocky, believing himself to be superior to all others. Mephisto is also a sociopath, a person who kills for pleasure and feels no remorse for the suffering of the innocent. He also has a strong belief that he earned his power, that destiny gave him the ability to rule because he was destined to.

HISTORY: Very little is known about Mephisto or his past. Anyone who did know something about him has been killed along with their friends, family, and house pets. All that is known is that his alias, Mephisto, Appeared only four years before, seemingly out of nowhere, and quickly became infamous for his notorious crimes against humanity, killing hundreds of people within his first two weeks. Soon, he established a criminal organization known as L.E.G.I.O.N. and began to rule the underworld, establishing himself as the so-called "New Napoleon of Crime." Whenever a major criminal act is staged, you can bet he is pulling the strings. There is currently a myth circulating that he has ties with political leaders, giving him supplies and lending him their troops. It is unknown if this is true at the moment.



I'm sorry if he seems TOO powerful, I just think an enemy like him would give our heros a nice challenge.

F See me after class

Nah, I'm kidding. The idea's got potential, if you have MSN, contact me on it. I'm [email protected], talk to me and we can sort things out.

There are a lot of typos, and cases of words being missed out. I can understand lots of details being 'Unknown' because if he is this secretive, it makes sense, so long as it will be revealed in time, but perhaps you could add some more personality flaws other than being cocky?

 

[Henshiner]

She's been edited to your liking. :sweat: So sorry.

 

[Scotty Rave]

Okay Henshiner, that's much better. I'd like to get one more hero in the U.K. but I guess this could be enough to start working on the opener at least.

Scotty I also wanted to point out that Archetype is an American citizen but he goes from country to country and is hard to locate on the grid so to say.

I'm fine with that. If the British government got their hands on him, he should be simple to keep tabs on for now, anyway. :sweat:

REAL NAME: Luciano Valentino
AGE: 23
D.O.B.: 8/4/1984
ETHNIC ORIGIN: Italian
OCCUPATION: Bodyguard-for-hire, works only with official (normally government) organisations
ALIGNMENT: Good
ALLEGIANCE: The Valiants

ALIAS: Black Bullet
POWERS:

• Sharpshooter; possesses exceptiona accuracy and precision handling in projectile weapons.
• Highly skilled in wielding bladed weapons.
• Is in peak physical condition.

WEAKNESSES: Suffers an intense phobia of animals; a result of trauma in his childhood, which throw him into a frenzy that forces him to kill any and all animals or animal effigies, before rendering him unconscious for an extensive period of time. After awakening, his eyesight and motor functions are affected. He must take a special medication once a week (religiously), to help his condition.

GADGETS:

• Berreta 92 FS custom x 2 (holsters on hips)stainless steel, barrel and slide extended by 1cm for silencing effect
• 61cm katana Battoken x 1 (sheath on rear)
• Kunai set
• P.D.A. x1

REGULAR APPEARANCE: Luciano's normal suit, worn during his bodyguard work.

COSTUME APPEARANCE:

• Reference Picture.

Wears a tight, leather suit with his katana sheathed on rear of his waist waist, similar to the picture on left, and an outer mantle, i.e. from the picture on right. To disguise his face, the collar of his outfit can be folded up. Luciano's hair and physical description are shown in the first picture (see Regular Appearance).

PERSONALITY: Cold, calm and calculating, Luciano's dedication to completing his mission is always the first thing on his mind. He does not care much for his comrades, valuing their welfare only if the assignment requires him to. Like all Italians, he has a liking for pasta, but only with white sauce, as red sauce nauseates him. He has a deep, psychological fear (otherwise known as a phobia) of any and all images of animals, and as such, even keeps his distance from Lionman when he's in costume. Luciano does not really believe in anything religious or political, only considering what benefits him. He looks out for Number 1.

HISTORY: Luciano’s father was a soldier in the Italian military and died before he was born. His mother died when he was three, during a raid by a group of vicious mercenaries. These same mercenaries found the boy lying by his mother’s corpse, and saw him as nothing more than a potential new killer. They took him in, educated, and trained him to be as cold and merciless as the rest of their ilk. His sensational marksmanship made him famous amongst the community, but also infamous. Some became jealous of this mere boy, and staged his death, taking him deep into a forest and leaving him there to rot. As the night went on, the child was terrorised by animals and the overwhelming darkness, and the horror imprinted itself onto his psyche forever.

Out of fear, he ran once morning broke, not knowing where he was going, just running, deeper and deeper into the mountains outside the realm of beast, until finally collapsing from physical and emotional exhaustion. He awoke to find he had been rescued from the bitter weather by an old hermit, a former soldier in the Japanese army, who took him in as his own and trained him to control his own fear through meditation and the art of the sword. When the hermit died a peaceful death, Luciano, now twenty, returned to the mercenary life, alone.

Not much time passed before the death of his teacher took effect, and Luciano became stricken with grief. Unable to quell his phobias, he fell back into the pit of desperation, and the legend of a monstrous savage who killed animals brutally was told throughout the land. This came to the attention of MI6, who alerted the British government. They captured Luciano, and put him through tests to ascertain his strength and skills. He didn’t mind, he was safe for now. After several months of this, it was decided that Luciano would be transferred to the Valiants under the command of Prince Harold Goddard, as their marksman. The one element that kept him under their power was the promise of a unique medication which, when taken regularly, would help him with his intense psychological scar. He did not share the heroic inclinations of his team-mates, and they soon came to view him as little more than a machine.

Now, he is also a bodyguard, but much like his position in the Valiants, his clients are assigned to him.

New profile with the help from Scotty. Thanks alot

There are a lot of typos in there, so I'd like you to search them out and fix them please. The history seems a little contrived. His mother dies and some mercs just happen to adopt him, and then later he just happens to come across this teacher in the mountains, and then the British government just happens to capture someone who comes across as a top notch bounty hunter. I think you need to fill in the holes a bit. If you contact me, I may be able to help out a bit.
