Sounds good. Now then... who wants to chase us? Any takers? We will run from both MERIT and Black Hand.

At least, I will. I prefer to remain neutral as long as possible.
 
If you want, Tipsy, we could chase them both down? Might get some action out of that.

Name: Leon "Lee" Hunter
Age: 19
Gender: Male

Personality: Casual and laid back, Leon never lets a bad situation get the best of him or anyone else. A typical comedian, he gets his kicks out of making others laugh, and has a n unusual charisma and confidence without seeming arrogant.

Easily bored, more than a few minutes without anyone to talk to or something to keep his mind at work will have him going crazy. Tapping his feet, cracking his knuckles, biting his nails, or even falling asleep on the spot and having to be woken up are common occurrences when Leon has nothing to keep himself occupied.

He is also quite sarcastic when he wants to be, able to put others down with a few words. This personality trait manifests itself most often when he is frustrated or when something overly dramatic is going on.

Though he often seems average in intelligence, he is actually quite smart, with a decent vocabulary and an excellent understanding of math and science. He just doesn't show it often. He can also form excellent strategies for battle and covert operations.

Fearless and loyal, he has no qualms about sacrificing himself or others for the greater good, revealing a more serious and fatalistic side to his personality. He believes in predestination as well, and that whatever happens is meant to happen, and does so for a reason. because of that, he tries his best not to mourn or cry for what's been and gone.

He is a bisexual through and through, and rather flirtatious with other members of MERIT, and even Rogues, with a charismatic confidence that draws people in. He knows when to stop flirting and get serious though.

Lastly, he can be a little selfish and blunt when he thinks people are being stubborn or stupid, and won't hesitate to tell them to their faces when they need to grow a pair or shut up and get back to work, being excellent at putting people down.

Power(s): Healing himself and others
Cryogenesis and Hydrogenesis
Energy Shield Formation
Mild Telekinesis
Dark Magic

Side: MERIT with a hint of Rogue

Appearance:
kyle_gallner_photo.jpg


Under average at five foot seven, dipping into the five foot 6 or 5 range, with a sleek, slightly fragile form, an observer could be forgiven for being skeptical of his endurance. His height and weight can often make him appear underweight. He has an average skin tone, without much tan, but not pale.

With icy blue eyes and tousled brown hair, Leon appears in every way to be the popular kid at school. with smooth skin and decent fashion sense. However, his lack of a genuine smile can make him seem unapproachable, which is anything but the truth.

Preferring casual wear such as jeans, t-shirts and jackets, on actual missions he wears tight black clothes and sunglasses for the heck of it.

Bio:To be revealed in RP.

Now I present to everyone a nice little surprise. My secret project, the leader of the Black Hand!

The-Vampire-Diaries-promo-photo-Ian-Somerhalder-2.jpg

Name
Alexander "Alex" Covington

Age
His real age is unknown. Because one of the powers he has absorbed over the past seventy-five years is rapid cellular regeneration, he has stopped ageing. Alex appears to be in his early twenties to mid twenties, but is mentally almost a century old.

Gender
Male

Personality
Before his transformation to a mutant, Alexander was a happy-go-lucky young man who looked to the skies for freedom. He was polite, charming, charismatic and a gentleman. He also had a passionate streak in all he did, whether it was helping the injured old man on the street or loving his beautiful girlfriend.

Joining the army only changed him slightly. Alex discovered how brave he was and took risks just like he was expected to do so. However, he would learn to be obedient. His short-lived experiences would be useful in his later life when leading the Black Hand.

When Alex was accused of treason and punished, it affected him deeply. He almost became a broken man, having been cast out by his family, his friends and his community. Being a soldier toughened him up, but did not prepare him for the horrifying experimentations he was subjected to. The pain was immense, but disappeared soon afterwards with the activation of his empathic mimicry and absorbing powers from the survivors, now deemed mutants. He would be able to block out physical pain, but as much as he likes to claim that he has nerves of steel, he is often crippled with emotional pain.

He is currently cold, ruthless and violent when he wants to be. Alex has a dry sense of humour and likes to annoy people with it at times. He will do whatever it takes to achieve what it is that he wants. Alex still feels a distant love for his deceased fiancee, despite the many years ago that she was killed. It is this that mostly keeps him going all the years he's been alive for.

Power(s)
Alex possesses a power called empathic mimicry. With this, he can absorb the powers of mutants around him and use them simultaneously. At first, he had to think of the person who he originally acquired the ability before to use it, but now uses them as a second nature. Over the years, he has acquired the following abilities.

  • Empathic mimicry: The ability to duplicate the powers of other evolved humans within proximity and reproduce them at will when thinking about the original source of the power.
    [*]Rapid cell regeneration: The ability to heal wounds quickly without any scarring.
    [*]Flight: The ability to propel oneself through the air.
    [*]Superhuman strength: Ability to have a level of physical strength much higher than normally possible, given their proportions.
    [*]Freezing: The ability to reduce temperatures and freeze objects by force of will.
    [*]Telepathy: The ability to mentally control functions of the brain.
    [*]Shape shifting: The ability to shift one's physical characteristics.
    [*]Super speed: The ability to move at a higher rate than normal.
    [*]Space-time manipulation: The ability to alter the space-time continuum, including slowing down, speeding up, reversing, stopping, moving backwards and forwards through time, and moving instantaneously through space.
    [*]Healing touch: The ability to control the flow of life.
    [*]Mental manipulation: The ability to manipulate others' minds, causing them to lose memories or be prevented from using mental powers.
    [*]Precognitive dreaming: The ability to see the future through dreams.
    [*]Telekinesis: Ability to manipulate and control objects with the mind, often in ways not visible to the naked eye.
    [*]Poison emission: The ability to harm or kill people in the immediate area by emitting a deadly poison.
    [*]Intuitive aptitude: The ability to analyze complex systems and intuitively understand how they work without special education or training.
    [*]Phasing: The ability to pass through solid objects at will.
    [*]Pyrokinesis: The ability to create and control fire using the power of the mind.
    [*]Induced radioactivity: The ability to manipulate the movement of subatomic particles, thus generating and emitting toxic radiation.
    [*]Sound manipulation: The ability to manipulate sound waves using one's voice.
    [*]Lie detection: The ability to detect when others lie.
    [*]Disintegration: The ability to disintegrate objects without physical contact.
    [*]Enhanced hearing: The ability to hear sounds beyond normal limits.
    [*]Melting: The ability to melt solid materials.
    [*]Electric manipulation: The ability to create and direct electrical arcs.

These are his known and demonstrated powers, although he may have hundreds more. Because of this, Alex could quite possibly be the most powerful mutant to walk the earth.

Side
The Black Hand

Appearance
Alex is six foot and three inches tall, perhaps more than the average height of a typical man. Appearing to be in his early twenties to mid twenties, he has dark brown hair that drops below his earlobes and baby blue eyes, which are his best physical feature. He has a strong and lean build. He has a good physique, is toned and fit – and he knows it. Appearances can be deceiving sometimes since he can often surprise anyone he meets.

Styled in a casual disarray style, Alex usually wears darker clothing – black boots under dark jeans, a black shirt (whether just a t-shirt or button up depends on the occasion) and is rarely seen without his leather jacket. He also wears a Lapis Luzuli ring, a family heirloom that was made and given to him when he became a man. This bears the Covington family crest on it.

Bio
Alexander was born in Germany during the early part of the twentieth century. He led a happy childhood; his father was a high-ranking officer in the army and his mother ran a respected bakery in the community. Ironically in accordance with Hitler's ideal German, Alex met a blonde-haired and blue-eyed girl, falling for her. When the Second World War broke out, he immediately enlisted and was stationed in his hometown, overseeing the progress of the Hitler Youth. He proposed to his girlfriend, but was arrested shortly after for allegedly hiding Jews in his parents' house.

Confused and disgusted, Alex knew he was innocent of the accusations against him. As punishment for his supposed crimes against his country, he was sentenced to a special concentration camp that was conducting several horrifying experiments to its prisoners. Alex was no exception. However, he survived unlike many others and began to develop strange empathic powers. When he was surrounded by numerous other new mutants, he lost control of himself and the facility they were placed in exploded. Alex awoke, knowing he was the cause of it and was only angered to be betrayed by his country.

It soon became apparent that his lover was also a prisoner of the concentration camp, but she never survived the experimentations. Alex vowed to live alone, take revenge against those who made him this way and crush whoever got in his way. As the next few months of his newfound freedom went by, he began to notice something odd. He hadn't aged since the experiments. He looked into the mirror, realising that he was inhuman. He took the mirror and smashed it onto his body, only recovering from the damage.

With the Russians advancing into Germany, Alex travelled to Russia. He had limitless amounts of abilities potentially on his hands and he did not want to remain in Germany.

It was here that he settled and wondered how he could avenge himself. In the year after the Second World War ended, the mutants from the concentration camp began to migrate to Russia. Alex, recognising many of their faces, seized the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and proposed a meeting. This meeting would culminate in the founding of what would only be known as the Black Hand.

As the founder and leader of the Black Hand, Alex knew it would take time for them to make any progress. Their first act of revenge was to raid the streets of Berlin and terrorise the human citizens. This was successful in itself and strengthened Alex's leadership. The mutants began to look up to him as a role model. However, the challenge next was when to reveal their nature to the world ...

With the growing numbers of mutants joining the Black Hand now rising in their hundreds to thousands, Alex began to develop a master of plan. If he were to survive all of them, then everything would be different. Times would have changed, there would be other mutants in their place and the world would have developed. Perhaps it was best to act soon. However, he felt that it was too soon after the war. His advisors relentlessly attacked him for this, but he remained by his decision not to act so rationally.

It may have been their worst mistake as an organisation yet. An attempted move of base to Germany ended in disaster. Remnants of Hitler's army rallied together and shot hundreds of mutants. Alex, of course, survived. The Black Hand therefore moved back to Russia, disappointed and decimated.

For many years, the harsh loss divided the Black Hand. Many mutants decided to go their own way and preserve their cause by starting families. Others remained loyal to the cause, whilst the rest disappeared to the rest of the world.

It was only in the 1960's that Alex first heard of the society named MERIT, which stood for everything opposite to them. He found it ironic, considering that era was beginning to turn into a time of peace and free love. Despite that, it made his blood boil. He openly began a feud with them, finding out from intelligence gathered that they were recruiting mutants to their cause. Their cause was that mutants and humans could coexist one day. Alex found this sickening, remembering the onslaught in Germany. Their existence spurred on the Black Hand to continue with their purpose once more.

Despite carrying on their feud for the next fifty years, it is amazing how MERIT have never discovered the identity of its leader. Alex has kept his cards close to his chest. He has not hidden away from them purposely, just that his mutants have almost always thwarted theirs. He has a few close allies from many years ago that he feels he can trust and will not disobey his authority. Upon the dawning of the second decade of the twenty-first century, Alex has been putting his master plan into action. Minor attacks across the world have been occurring and has drawn out MERIT into the playing field. On the other hand, Alex is intrigued when he discovers some of their members' identities.

Is there something dark at hand here? Will the demons from his past come crawling out? Whatever it may be, Alex is determined to change the world ... just as Germany created the mutants.

The higher ones up do know. And it's definitely a James Bond theme, best modern one that there is in my opinion.
 
cool character. :O

I'm gonna start my bio, of course powers will be PM'd to you before completion.

Name: Panagiota "Pana" Stephanopaulos

Age: 40

Gender: Female

Personality: Panagiota is a cold and ruthless figure. She is a sadist and takes pleasure in making people suffer for her amusement, a fact that she takes advantage of with her powers. She is also cocky and confident, and goes in expecting an easy victory

While she can be cold and calculating as she wants to be, and can come up with her own plans of action, Panagiota prefers to not be a major strategist.

Powers: Electrokinesis: Panagiota possesses the ability to bodily generate electrostatic energy of which she can release or harness for a number of effects, including creating Lightning Bolts (akin to Force Lightning), ionizing metals, EMP Pulses and even uses the power to augment her strength speed and other abilities

Pana's body can generate electricity at a rate of 10,000 volts per minute upwards to her maximum capacity of 5,000,000 volts.


Side: The Black Hand

Appearance: Panagiota is 5'11" tall, towering over most women her age. She is of skinny build, almost like a supermodel. She has dirty blond hair and light blue eyes, that brighten in the dark and looks almost sinister, and scary. Despite her age, her facial features and skinny body makes her look like a woman almost half her age.

In terms of attire, she wears a blue flannel shirt underneath a navy blue jacket. She wears a black jeans and is often seen in black sneakers. Panagiota prefers dark-colored clothing and doesn't like dresses.

Bio: Panagiota was born in 1970 in the Cretan city of Heraklion. (in Greece) As a child, Pana had a loving family, both were merchants who sold goods to the island, they lived in a small villa in Tympaki, on the southern side of the island

She began developing her powers at the age of 15, when a hapless electrician, while working on a power line, accidentally cut the line, the live wire would catch her, but Pana wasn't electrocuted when she caught the wire. Instead, she held it like if it was some sort of rope.

The people were stunned and surprised to see a girl like her not die. There were many though who were narrow-minded, calling Panagiota a servant of the devil. They formed an angry mob that wanted to kill the girl and her parents. The family tried to defuse the situation, but was killed in front of Pana, who then ran away from home.

The events left her bitter and cold, and she wanted revenge. As she traveled through Crete, Panagiota met a mysterious man, who gave her an offer, "Join him in his cause and he will help in your revenge." Pana, seeking revenge above all else, accepted his offer, thus beginning the mutant's relationship with the Black Hand. Returning to her home town, she and the man partook in the slaughtering of roughly 1,000 people. Using her more developed electrical powers, she caused fires, electrocuted people, and tortured others; thus developing her more sadistic side.

Over the years, Panagiota worked as a member of the Black Hand, while she was not the public face of the group, she is seen as more of a sadistic terrorist, and serial killer. She is willing to change the world, one hapless lost soul at a time.
