Supersonic [Signup/Discussion]

Hope this one is okay. Kinda got really ambitious with this guy. :hmmm:

Name: The Ripper
Age: 32
PoB: Republic of Ireland

Appearance: The Ripper is built like a heavyweight wrestler, but the Oblivion attack left him with a mutation that turned most of his skin into hard scales. On his face, much of these scales are over his brow, across his forehead and around his cheekbones. Other thickly scaled area include his shoulders, chest, forearms, back and shins. The mutation has also resulted in his eyes growing twice as large as a normal humans, taking on a mottle green colour with black slits for pupils. And lastly, his jaws are no longer attached to his cranium, so he can dislocate them the same way many sharks can. Sometime after the mutation, he decided to have his teeth sharpened into fangs to make his visage all the more fearsome.

The rest of his skin, that isn't scaled, is dark green except for the undersides of his arms and his stomach, which are a very pale green. He has no hair whatsoever, and he has piercings all over his body.

His attire consists of a black jumpsuit, just like other prisoners. Much of the time he has the upper half of the suit folded around his waist, wearing only a white t-shirt beneath. Lastly, he wears a pair of heavily scuffed black boots.

Height: 7ft 4in
Weight: 430 pounds

Personality: Aggressive, unpredictable and short tempered. The Ripper's idea of a joke usually results in someone's neck being broken. The only time he has expressed any other kind of personality has been on those occassions he converses with 'Adam'. He tends to act a bit more childish, and even comes across as somewhat vulnerable.

Personal Goal: The Ripper hasn't wanted anything out of life since taking to crime. He enjoys creating as much havok as possible, and plans on staying that way. Winning the Super Sonic will allow him to go back out into the world to cause people as much pain as possible.

Bad Habit(s): Not once has The Ripper cleaned himself after a kill. Although, this isn't a habit that he himself would consider to be bad.

3 Fun Facts:
- The Ripper's real name is Dennis Ryan. Almost no one knows this, and the last person who did call him by that name had their neck broken.
- The Ripper still speaks to his childhood imaginary friend 'Adam' on occasion. It never bodes well.
- The Ripper was once shot square in the forehead. Needless to say, he had a terrible headache for some time.

Psychics: The Ripper has the ability to control inanimate objects with his mind. If they are items that are in his possession, then he can "fill them" with his psychic energy prior to manipulating them with his mind. This enables him to manipulate these objects as if it's second nature. With anything else, it requires a certain amount of time and attention depending on the size and weight.

History: The Ripper, or Dennis Ryan as he was once known, was born in Bray. His father was always off working in Wicklow, and he was stuck at home with his abusive mother. To this day, he still believes that she enjoyed tormenting him like she did. She never let him play outside, or make any friends. He never got to go to school, and his mum would often have him stand there so she can go on saying what a terrible son he is. Over the years, he became impervious to it. He ran away when he was twelve and never saw his mother again.

He fell in with a gang who called themselves Ragen's Colts. For the most part, they were petty criminals. Often looting shops and mugging, but Dennis enjoyed it. He found it very empowering when people fled in terror at the mere sight of him, and his visage earned him his nickname 'The Ripper'. He loved that name, and decided that he would no longer be called Dennis. He was seventeen when he first murdered someone. It was during a bust up at a small convenience shop. The shop owner pulled a gun on them, which The Ripper promptly grabbed it off him and beat the man to death. He still compares the experience to taking drugs. Once he had that first taste, he wanted more.

And so he took on the more brutish jobs for the gang. The Colts expanded, dealing in drugs, weapons smuggling and taking out whatever competition arose. The bigger the gang grew, the more The Ripper got to kill. On occasion he would even kill fellow gang members out of pure boredom, or because he was "provoked". Like the time when one person came up to him and called him Dennis. When feeling particularly angry, he would maul people with his jaws.

It wasn't until the age of 27 when he was finally taken in by the police. His gang mates had grown too weary of him, and were sick of being petrified of being the next person to have their neck broken, or to be mauled. So they set him up with a 'job' that promptly drew the attention of the police. He managed to kill three officers before he was shot in the head. The thick scales were what saved him, but the shot had knocked him out. When he awoke, he was in a high security prison he knew not where.

During his time in prison, he quickly set himself on top of the pecking order. Through intimidation, maiming and sometimes killing, he became the most feared person to ever step foot in that prison. Not even the guards would go near him unless he was heavilly sedated and restrained. He entered his name into the lottery that chose those who could enter the Super Sonic. Years later, he finally got chosen for the Super Sonic 2153. Being completely clueless about Sonics, he opted for the Armoured Shell Cycle simply because it was the most brutish looking thing there.

Edit work: Removed reaction and attacking reduction and added range to the Inversion system

Name: Levont Kiaser

Age: 24

PoB: Paris, France

Appearance:
Yusei-Fudo-yusei-fudo-20934236-866-2441.jpg

While Levont looks just like this, the main difference in the attire is the fact that the orange orbs and icon on the shirt is green. There is no yellow lines in the hair and the hair spikes itself is reduced to give more of a bed hair feel. Lastly, the markings under his left eye is copied to the underside of his right eye.

Weight/Height: 160 /6

Personality: Levont is a calculating, calm mannered, and at times, amusing man. This is mostly when he's working on a project. Whenever he's doing something else, Levont is a down to earth guy who likes to enjoy the finer things in life.

Personal Goal: Levont wants to open a Sonics store/repair shop.

Bad Habit(s): Levont tends to fiddle with anything within his reach. (Pencils, pens, at times wrenches and stuff)

3 Fun Facts:
Levont is a weapons manufacturer with a weapon currently being patented. *said weapon description, see Heavy Weapons*
Levont was once approached by the Britian's Prime Minister and the USA' President for the blueprints of his statis system
Levont's favorite food is sushi.


Heavy Weapon: Inversion System: This weapon system, made by Levont himself, focus primarily on attacking the target's overall performance, not their health. With the Inversion system, Levont can send a beam pulse of blue energy with an AoE (Area of effect) of a 3 yard (9 feet) at a person or object to severely slowing their moving speed. It also allows Levont to 'pick up and throw' items either to the side or toward his opponent of his choice that is in range, though the system can't pick up heavy items like a car and the such. The current weight limit Inversion can pick up are items that a normal human can pick up with another person's help (So Inversion can't pick up motorbikes and such). The range of the overall weapon system's range is 20 yards (.01 miles). Levont wears the Inversion system like a backpack/jacket with a pair of gloves that allows Levont to fire Inversion from either hands.

History: (Tell us a little bit about you. Where are you from? What was your past like? How did you come to enter the race?)
Levont Kaiser was born in Paris to a middle class family. His mother was a teacher at the local college while his father was a police officer for the area. For the most part, his life was like any other boys up to the age of 16 when he first got his hands on scrap metal. In a matter of a week and a few favors for usage of a blow torch, Levont created a crude version of a fan motor that didn't work.

Seeing his potential with metal, Levont's father sent him to a friend of his, who was a mechanic at the time. Under his tutelage, Levont's skill with mechanical work grew exponentially. This came into light at age 18 when Levont started tampering with a vacuum's inner working with a candle nearby. Needless to say, Levont nearly killed himself in the attempt of making a jet propulsion system.

Not taking any chances, the mechanic brought another person he knows, a friend in the weapon business. The man decided to take a look at the vacuum jet propulsion system and was amazed at the fact that it worked. Speaking with his father, Levont was then allowed to work in the weapon manufacturing company. This continued until Levont hit it big at the age of 24.

At the time, Levont was working on a personal project of his that required a power source to start up. A manager came down to oversee the work everyone does and saw Levont with the prototype version of his Inversion System. Asking for a test try on the system, Levont agreed if he was given an open space to demonstrate it. It was given to him and the results of the demonstration put his name in the spotlight.

In the weeks following sped past Levont. The Prime Minister of Great Britian and the US President came in person to talk about the Inversion system. He was then flown to each country just to demonstrate the system. But for all of that, Levont refused to hand over the blue print until the patent he had put in went through. One day after a tiring day of weapon demonstration, Levont received a text message on his way back to work. Opening it, Levont read the letter and found out that someone got him into the race. Requesting to his boss for some time off, it was granted as he took his Inversion system and started to prepare for the Super Sonic Race.

Ambitious indeed! I've just a few questions, comments, and concerns:

Click to expand...
Is that all there is to him? He doesn't have a soft side at all? Does this mean you wish to use him as a villain of the story?

Psychics: The Ripper has a mild form of telepathy, in which he can catch snippets of what people are thinking as if listening to a conversation.
Click to expand...
In my opinion any sort of telepathy abilities can spell bad news when it comes to fights, etc. Predicting another's actions through snippets can be a bit much. :hmmm: I advise it be changed or watered down a bit more. Also(If you wish to keep this) since he can only catch snippets of thoughts does that include implanted/transhuman persons with possible artificial brains/bodies.

Being completely clueless about Sonics, he opted for the Mech Sonic simply because it was the most brutish looking thing there.

Name: Mech
Type: Grounded (Basically moves the same way a human would.)
Mods: Class A - Weapon, Class A - VI Assistant
Appearance: http://wallpoper.com/images/00/38/98/86/soldiers-mech_00389886.jpg

Pretty much what you have there, but the only weaponry it has is the Class A Pistolknife. The VI Assistant, when not hovering around, is kept under a small hatch on his right shoulder.
Click to expand...
So I apologize for not making it clearer but Mechs aren't to be used regularly throughout the race. They are restricted to the 2 special races that are happening within the tournament. When that time comes you can choose to use a custom mecha. I figured since I never listed the Class Z parts(I meant to include them later on.) people would get what I meant. Once again I apologize for not making this clearer.
 
Well, I was thinking of having him pretty much be some lunatic who's there mostly for the sake of stirring up trouble. :hmmm: Within reason, of course. And, as for his mild telepathy. He wouldn't be able to predict someones movements unless they put a considerable amount of thought into it. Utterly useless in a fast-paced combat situation, I'd say. :wacky: I mean, at the most it would probably only give him the opportunity to try and intervene in a well thought-out plan on action.

As for the Mech, it's a bit unfortunate that he can't use a Mech Sonic. But I could change that. :monster:

Or... I dunno, he could be used as a villianous NPC or whatever, I don't mind. :D
 
He can stir up trouble. he just cant use a mech as a default Sonic :hmmm: Everything else seems fine. If you want to brave the psychic move, great but a very close eye will be kept on it's usage. Other than that he needs a new sonic bio and he's good to go. ^_^
 
Alright, I've made some changes, taking on board what you've pointed out. I decided to change his psychic powers as well. :monster:
 
My bio is set up if you wanna check exo.

It also allows Levont to 'pick up and throw' items either to the side or toward his opponent of his choice that is in range, though the system can't pick up heavy items like a car and the such. The current weight limit Inversion can pick up are items that a normal human can pick up with another person's help (So Inversion can't pick up motorbikes and such). The range of the weapon system's pick up is 5 car lengths with a unlimited range (Though at a longer range, aiming becomes harder to do). Levont wears the Inversion system like a backpack/jacket with a pair of gloves that allows Levont to fire Inversion from either hands.
Click to expand...

Your description leaves me a bit confused...You compare his range to 5 cars and then say it's unlimited. I also don't understand what an AoE effect is so can you explain that a bit further please? Also using cars and streets as measurements can come off a bit vague and the whole reducing attacking/moving/reaction part is a bit worrying.

Other than that heavy weapon description the rest of the bio looks good and ready to go! ^_^
 
Ok I edited my profile. It should be a bit more clear now.
 
Character one:

Human
Name: Nathan Stokes
Age: 22
PoB: London, United Kingdom


Appearance:
Jacob.jpg

Weight/Height:
155Lbs/5’7”



Personality:


An angry and bitter young man now, Nathan wasn’t always like he is now.

While he’s a participant of SuperSonic, he despises the games as much as humanly possible. He sees them as a horrid depiction of human murderous intent. He sees this as much more than a game- Nathan sees it as a form of war- a consumer war waged on the world.

As a quiet man, Nathan rarely speaks or shows both his opinions and emotions. However, this should not be mistaken as ignorance. Nathan is a human being of great compassion for both his fellow man and animals of the world. He’s always been a firm believer in the potential of world peace and compassion. Where the humans of this world need never fight with guns, or with sticks or stones. But, that is where the imagination ends. Nathan also believes that we- as the father-generation tot the next- should take it as our duty to open that dream- and for that to progress, evil men and women need to die.

While he is NOT a strict pacifist, Nathan only believes in violence once its usage is for the greater good of the world. If bad men have to die to preserve the law or common flow of the world, Nathan wouldn’t disagree with it.

In relation to teaming up with people, Nathan is both honourable and loyal. He’d never go back on a promise or agreement with another person- even if it benefited him to do so. Nathan’s upheld this conviction to the degree that he’s well known for it. While this might have cost him many wins in life and SuperSonic alike, Nathan’s conscience is clear.
However, with the orphanage’s survival riding on his shoulders, will he dirty himself in such way?
(What are ya like around other people. How do you view the world?)





Personal Goal:
Finally finish his run in the SuperSonic, winning the prize to support his orphanage! He also wishes to bring about the end of SuperSonic with his victory- no more people should have to die due to this “game”- a cruelty to keep the sick-minded satisfied.


(You gotta have at least one goal to strive for in life!)

Bad Habit(s): (Everyone has an obstacle to overcome. What's yours?)
1. Has a habit of clicking his fingers at people- generally irritates others.
2. An insane level of swearing is present in his vocabulary.
3. Something of a slight kleptomaniac. The most meaningless things are those that attract him the most.

3 Fun Facts: (What 3 ways are you unique? Optional)
1. Nathan absolutely loves “”Happy hippo” chocolate sweets- even if they’re for children
2. He’s been skating with skates since he was three years old- his parents strapped mini skateboards to his hands and feet for him to have fun with.
3. Comically “rages” at people who call him “Nate” or any shortened variation of his birth name.

Heavy Weapon:

Tesla beam rifle:

Two modes (Blade, firearm) A la Final Fantasy XIII gunblade mounted on his left arm. This weapon is in the same type as a rail gun in that it uses electricity to propel projectiles over a certain range. However, the power and therefore, recoil, on the Tesla Beam Cannon is significantly reduced or “nerved”. The blade mode is the melee function of the weapon and allows Nathan to swiftly deal with other competitors within range. The switch time is approximately 10 seconds, due to the fact that the blade is simply the outer shell and handle locked into place.

The magazine for the rifle mode holds a maximum of five rounds and along with the chambered round leads to a total of 6 rounds for the weapon. However, due to the acceleration method, the beam rifle can only fire a total of twelve rounds with each charge. Also, the power of each shot progressively gets weaker... But not to the point of uselessness. The recoil is also quite powerful and has the potential to cause a user to spin out… but- since Nathan has used the weapon for his whole Sonic career- he’s able to even out this weakness through technique

To balance out these weaknesses, the beam rifle is quite powerful and- its greatest pro- very stable and accurate. It’s fully powered first shot has the potential to punch through four inches of steal ( in the best conditions, of course).

As for the blade mode, The Telsa’s is quite strong and is able to take many hits due to its titanium build. It would take quite some force to break to the Tesla, but it certainly can be done. The charge of the tesla firing mechanism can be used to increase the cutting potential of the blade, but this absorbs the same amount of power from a shot.


Due to the complicated usage and powering of the Tesla, I will make sure to monitor and keep fellow RP’er up to date on the rounds left and charge left.

(Human get to carry only 1 heavy weapon into battle. Either melee or ranged choose wisely. No OP weapons please.)


History:
A star Veteran of the world of SuperSonic, Nathan was definitely one of the top contenders in the competitions history. He’d been a prodigy in the sport, almost superhuman in his efforts. Skating had always been a talent of Nathan's. From the day he could speak, all he wanted to do was compete.

Born in the metropolis that was London, in the SuperSonic generation, Nathan was never what one would call poor.

I wasn't one hundred percent sure what the deal is with the prisoners who enter the race. Whether or not they're to stay in the hotel, or if they're kept separated from everyone else. I kinda assumed there'd be a sort of holding area for the prisoners. If not, just let me know and I'll edit my post.

Yea I'm sorry. In the first write up of my post it was in there but it looks like I cut it out by mistake. You have the correct idea though. Just think of the prison holding area as a large space with television monitors, guards, etc. As for how the race will begin, the special conditions for prisoners will be revealed in Olivia Sato's speech. ^_^
 
Okay, cool. :D Can't wait 'til things really kick off. I've never actually played this kinda RP before, so it's all new to me. :lew:
 
Posting Reminder: The Welsh Paddy

Announcements:
I'll be doing a time jump after everyone gets situated from the current events happening, s0o as to speed up to the first race and get the ball going. ^_^ The time jump should happen probably after I make 2-3 more posts. I'm hoping that by then your characters will have everything set up for them, making alliances, creating a race strategy, furthering their own storylines, etc.

RP Story Related:

{JR: Racers this year have reacted negatively towards the big reveal at the Supersonic brunch. The nano tracker, one of Sato company's latest designs, have been implemented to track all racers who use unfair gain to get ahead. Normally the race has been without strict limits! It looks like Olivia think's the tournament should be won fair and square huh? If you recall the last few races have been won by members of notorious street gangs and the worst of the worst prisoners. No doubt some contenders have already been eliminated. As you all know, anything goes until the race begins! This may be the only time in the world where crime is legal, because, as you all know, if you commit a crime, then you're automatically entered into the race anyways?! However I personally don't feel it's worth wasting the prize wish on if one does win the race after becoming a criminal. Anyways, this has been JR signing out of SSAircast! You can catch videos of the Sato Ceremonial Hall coverage up at ssaircastnewsfeed/JR/2153.net! [ENTRY: 03]}
 
Exoskeleton: I'm nearly finished my bio- sorry it took so long. ^.^'. I saw the RP started- I hope I'm not too late for it.


I've yet to complete the history, but it'll be very straight forward and simple. I've also yet to select my mods... I have a question though: Can you interchange mods on your Sonics?
