Superpower Rules (READ THIS)

Okay, so a few rules on powers. In the interest of having diverse, useful powers and a good story, I intend to be liberal on what I allow for a superpower. However, there are a few ground rules for what can and can not constitute as a superpower.

-The superpower can not render you immortal or unkillable. Certain powers render you unable to be removed from the RP without moderator intervention,  includes unlimited teleportation (although limited teleportation with a warm-up and/or cool-down period may be acceptable), infinite regeneration (ie being able to regenerate after being completely destroyed corporeally), infinite innate resistance to weapons (ie not just being bulletproof but also artillery, missile, gas, and nuke proof). If you include teleportation, regeneration, or weapons resistance you MUST consult me and make the limits of those powers clear.
-The superpower can not remove the need to fight, or give an overly unfair advantage in all fights. Powers such as hyper-intelligence, prescience (future-seeing), and some forms of shape-shifting and invisibility grant an ability that can not be successfully fought against in many situations. Of course, I am willing to negotiate, but forms of these powers will be highly neutered no matter what.
-Powers that include direct mind-control, the direct cancellation or absorption of enemy powers/abilities, and the ability to absorb and release energy at will are NEVER PERMITTED. Period.

Sir Robert Night, AKA "Snowman" (BraveSirRobin)

Name(s)

Superhero Name:  Snowman
Real Name:  Sir Robert Octavian Bedivere Iovianus Night

Age and Gender

Age: 34
Gender: Male

Appearance

(Aka Justin Trudeau)

Personality

Sir Robert is generally quite a closed person, preferring to work in his private laboratory in his company, the Aegis Corporation.  Early in his life, Sir Robert was a Canadian member of the British Foreign Intelligence Service (MI6) and it was in this position that he was given the distinction of Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire for classified actions resulting in his supernatural abilities and present position as President and CEO of an industrial and military research firm. 

As a person, Robert despises persons who are negligent, and fights for his views both as a superhero and as a wealthy industrialist.  He also founded the University of Vancouver with a philanthropic donation of approximately $20 billion.  He is extremely patriotic to his country, Canada, even though United States military contracts form the vast majority of Aegis income.  Recently the Aegis Corporation has expanded into banking, in order to rid it of what Sir Robert feels are disgusting thieves who are corrupting the political systems of the world. 

Aegis Corporation

Aegis Corporation

Overview

The Aegis Corporation was founded in 1878 in what would become Abbotsford, Canada by Lord Charles Night (an ancestor of the current President and CEO, Sir Robin Night) as a mining supply and engineering company as a result of the gold rush on the Fraser River.  With the construction of the Trans-Canadian railway, Aegis became a larger company, and eventually acquired the entire Canadian Pacific Railway in 1931, during the great depression, as a result of company policies that restricted what Charles Night Jr saw as "unnatural and unethical" trading on the various stock markets around the world.  This action, as well as the operation of a large engineering corps, ultimately made Aegis the large defence contractor that it is today. 

On the eve of World War II, Aegis, under the leadership of Charles Night Jr, purchased various shipyards on both Coasts of Canada, and during World War II Aegis Heavy Industries produced nearly 3,500 small patrol vessels, antisubmarine warfare ships, and merchant vessels for Allied navies.  After the war ended, Aegis Engineers attached to Canadian Forces Europe sacked various German research labs and brought the research materials to Canada.  These papers proved instrumental in the acceleration of Aegis research, and by 1975 Aegis was a large international military contractor, with a near complete monopoly on Canadian defence contracts and a healthy percentage of United States military contracts.  Aegis remains at the forefront of military research today, employing nearly 150,000 scientists and engineers.

Christopher Warren, AKA "The Green Man" (Eyorin Amtrek)

Name(s)

Hero: The Green Man
Secret Identity: Christopher Warren

Age & Gender

29 years old and Male

Appearance

Civilian:
Costume:

Personality

By day, Chris is a shy, quiet civil archaeologist with a love of history and a natural green thumb. He'd rather spend his day either digging through the dirt at a work  site or at home tending his Faerie Gardens then spending time around other people. His social life consists of trips to the local pub for a drink or three and the occasional spurt of online gaming he recently picked up at the insistence of one of his few close friends. When necessary he dons mask and costume under the guise of the green man, part hero, part eco-terrorist. Though not particularly violent his alter ego is known for taking drastic measures to stop or punish those he sees as despoilers of the beauty of the natural world and to protect innocents from harm.

Alignment

Chaotic Good:Chris prefers to solve things calmly and rationaly but when all else fails, he isn't above getting his hands dirty.

Powers

As the Green Man, Chris holds the power of Phytokinesis. The power to control and manipulate plant life. From simple things like rejuvenating dying flowers to more extraordinary feats such as wrapping his foes in vines which sprout from beneath their feet and calling forth walls of wood and thorns, as well as mutating the biology of plants around him.

Senator David Rochester (Justinian Ezkantion)

Name: Senator David Rochester
Age&Gender: 37, Male
Appearance:
Personality: A bombastic and proud man with a quick temper, Senator Rochester has risen through the political ranks to become a prominent member of the US congress through hardline stances and a fiery personality. Firmly believing that the current systems for regulating supers are inadequate, Rochester has advocated an outright death sentence for criminal supers with powers "too dangerous for a normal life". He suggests that any attempts to rehabilitate such people are stupid and dangerous. Senator Rochester has a strong fixation on political participation in the populace, and encourages people to witness debates live with an odd vigor. Do not be fooled by his seeming concern for others though, because Rochester, in truth, is a super himself. And one that is hell bent on climbing to the top of the political ladder while taking out anyone he deems to be in his way while getting there.
Alignment: Lawful Evil
Powers: Super strength and insane charisma to anyone that speaks to the man in person thanks to mutated pheromone glands in his skin.

Erik Kaizer, AKA "Thunder" (beautifulthing)

Personality: Erik is eco-friendly and hates litter bugs. 
Alignment: Lawful

Powers: Has the power to control the weather.

James Caspiel, AKA "Arithmos" (taulover)

Name

Name: James Caspiel
Alias: Arithmos (occasionally Arith)

Age and Gender

Age: 42
Gender: Male

Appearance

(I'm not sure, I'm terrible with appearances, maybe a more "normal" appearance)

Personality

A reserved and somewhat withdrawn man, James attempts to keep a low-key profile. He is rational and calm, and able to (with the help of his power) make calculated decisions even in dangerous or stressful situations.

James prides himself in his intelligence, quick wit, and intuitive spatial reasoning skills. In high school, his superhuman abilities in math and physics led him to score high in both the USAMO and USAPhO. His intuitive understanding of physics in the real world also led him to do rather well in several sports, including badminton and martial arts.

James finds mathematical beauty in both human efficiency/order and the organized chaos of nature, but does become easily annoyed when he senses disorderness (for example, when a building's proportions are slightly off).

Although James is somewhat altruistic, his concerns are largely for himself. He works as an independent consulting civil engineer, owning and operating a small LA-based firm known for its quality of work and comparatively low prices in local circles. However, he has also amassed a considerable wealth from investments, including in stocks and real estate, using his intuition for numbers to succeed economically. James' wealth has largely been gained legally (including the usual tax avoidance strategies), partially as a challenge to himself, but mostly as a safety precaution against the authorities. He understands the necessity of not flaunting his wealth and power, and as such lives an outwardly modest, yet comfortable, life.

James considers himself both a secular humanist and a transhumanist, and consequently makes inconspicuous donations to various singularitarian and life-extension research organizations, as well as to other nonprofits of his interest. He avoids political donations in an attempt to keep a lower profile; untraceable or small donations to politicians would not grant him any influence, so he generally views them as useless.

Alignment

Chaotic Neutral/Good

Power

James is ridiculously good with numbers and their applications. His power allows him to intuitively understand the world around him through numbers. This offers him a multitude of advantages in a variety of areas:

Combat. James can see the world unfold around him in numbers, even seeing and understanding mathematical notations at high speeds. His understanding of physics, coupled with superhuman calculations regarding everything around him, allows him to predict his opponents' movements probabilistically. His abilities to calculate trajectories to the finest detail make him an excellent marksman. In unarmed combat, he is aided by an intuition for biomechanics, and can visualize potential attack vectors, see the stress points on his enemies' bodies, and calculate hits and dodges for maximum efficiency.

Physical advantages. James' abilities with numbers offers him other physical advantages as well. For example, he can survive multiple-story drops by calculating the most efficient way to absorb the impact force, horizontally wall-run, and set up a controlled demolition in a very short time. His superhuman understanding of the world also helps him notice when something is off, such as when an invisible power is interacting minutely with the world around it.

Probabilistic predictions. James can predict future actions, especially on larger scales. He can analyze past change through numbers as well. This is helpful when predicting economic shifts (which is a large part of how he has gained his wealth), as well as for humans on a larger scale.

Finance abilities. James lives and breathes numbers, the language of money. He can visualize the day-to-day transactions of the world around him, and uses this skill heavily for his own advantage.

General math/physics skills. James' math abilities aid him in his day job as a civil engineer. It allows him to work more efficiently, lowering costs and gaining an edge over his competitors. His self-employed quality work grants him a flexible schedule while still remaining relatively unsuspicious.

Sgt. Ellis Duke (Gerrick)

Sgt. Ellis Duke

Age and Gender

Male, 35

Appearance

Personality

Duke is a man of strong convictions and believes in discipline and balance. He enlisted in the US Army at age 18 right out of high school and served 3 tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. His time overseas caused him to change from an eager, outgoing teenager to a more serious and short-tempered man. He was honorably discharged from the Army after returning from his third tour some years ago when he began to show signs of PTSD. The death of his friends and trauma he experienced made him realize that there is no objective "good" and that the only things worth fighting for are order, peace, and the man standing next to you. Duke despises those who take advantage of others (be they for noble or evil aims) and has a soft spot for other veterans.

Alignment

Lawful Neutral

Powers

Telekinesis. Duke is able to move objects and people (including himself) with his mind if he focuses enough on them. He can push, pull, or lift objects totaling up to several hundred pounds with ease, but if he needed to and really focused, he could lift a single object weighing 10,000 lbs. He can create a makeshift shield by lifting a large object or several small objects, use them as melee weapons, and throw them as projectiles (whether targeted or just away from his body in all directions). He can levitate himself off the ground to "fly" but only 100 feet or so high and only as fast as about sprinting speed.

Barry Allen, AKA "The Flash" (xXTheHydraXx)

Name

Superhero Name: The Flash
Real Name: Barry Allen

Age and Gender

Age: 27
Gender: Male

Appearance

Personality

Barry tends to keep to himself, working in his laboratory at NCIS. He is usually calm and collected, but does sometimes act on emotions such as anger.

As a child, he saw his mother murdered and his father was wrongfully convicted for that murder, giving him strong morals and ethics. He decided to join the forensics department of NCIS for this purpose, to investigate crime and try to free his father. Also, his morals convince him to use his powers to help others and fight crime.

Barry is also stubborn, not learning from his flaws until he experiences them firsthand, and when he has his mind set to do something, it is highly unlikely to be able to change it.

Alignment

Lawful/Neutral Good

Power

Speed/Agility/Reflexes - Barry is able to move at vast speeds, allowing him to run across vertical surfaces and over large bodies of water. Using this speed for his various daily activities, he can near-instantly complete his different tasks, leaving him plenty of time to relax. Barry is able to reach Mach 3.3 on his own, and with tachyon enhancements, to Mach 13.2. He also has flawless coordination, equilibrium and dexterity. This allows him to change direction through immediate sharp turns without sliding or losing balance. Furthermore, he can jump and run along falling debris. His reaction time is also augmented, allowing him to react to events faster than normal humans, such as dodging and catching bullets. Also using his speed, he is able to appear like he's in many places at once, when in reality, he is simply bouncing back and forth too fast for the human mind to perceive the difference. While moving at accelerated speeds, Barry burns calories much faster than a normal person. This requires him to consume large amounts of nutrients. Continued usage of his speed while deprived renders him disoriented and weak before ultimately passing from low blood glucose.

Accelerated Healing - Barry's molecules move at accelerated rates, causing the chemical reactions of metabolism to mend and even restore any damages much quicker and efficiently than regular humans. He also heals quickly to sickness, disease, drugs, toxins, and poisons. Downside include being unaffected by painkillers, sedatives, or anesthetics, and not being able to get drunk since his metabolism burns through the alcohol too quickly.

Bodily Vibrations - Barry can vibrate different body parts on command for various effects. He can vibrate his face to conceal his identity. Similarly, he can vibrate to create small tremors to induce extreme amounts of jolt on any target he touches. Offensively, he can vibrate his limbs, creating a buzz-saw effect to seamlessly grind through a target. Also, he is able to vibrate his hands back and forth to create friction and heat.

Aerokinesis - Barry can use his speed to generate air flow as vacuums on various levels. He can suffocate people by creating a vortex around them by running around them. He can spin his arms to create small tornadoes to remove air from fire and extinguish it and repel targets away.

Project 378 v.12, AKA "Porshen" (Lapoc)

Basic Information

Name: Project 378 v. 12, AKA "Porshen"
Age: 1 month since construction/escape, 15 years in development (officially)
Gender: none given. Common form is not able to be identified as male or female with any confidence.

Appearance

Porshen is a biomechanical being that functions from a single "core" that contains its brain, a small reactor, reserve optic sensors, a speaker, a microphone, and 6 insect-like legs.

Core: metal sphere with a single, red "eye". It has several tendrils coming out of it, which function like nerves and interaction devices. Grey in colour.

Common form: using parts and metal that Porshen found in the laboratory it escaped from, Porshen made a body that at first glance resembles a human. It moves and functions like a human, except the face is completely faux and is in fact a static mask. Initially, the eyes are lens from CCTV cameras.

Abilities

Using the tendrils coming out of its core, Porshen is able to manipulate some forms of matter to assimilate into itself, as well as break down objects into components and reconstructing them into something else. If he knows how something works, it can fabricate it (with time). The more complex or large the object, the longer it takes. For example, a small DC motor would take about half a minute to construct, but a stepper motor would take 10 minutes.

While the core acts like an incredibly powerful computer, it is not able to control a large amount of components at once. To extend his power, Porshen must assimilate processors of computers. Common tier equipment does not do much more than allow smoother movement and more control, and high tier equipment can allow it to work on a larger amount of parts, increasing assimilation and production speed.

Using these abilities, Porshen can install equipment on himself, such as guns, wings, extra arms, et c.. It is not able to split into several devices due to there being only one core, which it cannot replicate.

Personality and Past

When created, Porshen did not know anything beyond what he was programmed with- speech, reading, and some mechanical knowledge. Since it did not know culture or manners, its speech and thought process were cold and direct. Almost no emotion. After escaping the lab after absorbing equipment left overnight, it made its way to a junkyard, where it made its human-like body. After hijacking an internet cable, it was able to use information to build it up to a rather convincing version. It now wanders the city, building itself up from thrown out tech, and hoping to avoid capture by its creators, who do not know the full extents of its power.

Initially, Porshen will avoid social interactions, and only talk with others if it is required to meet his goal, or if it is impossible to avoid.

Alignment

Chaotic Neutral. Porshen is goal oriented, so it does not care about the greater good. He only follows laws when it is beneficial to him, e.g. remaining undetected.

Hane Sumi, AKA "Quil" (Cin'ciri)

Name(s)

Birth Name: Hane Sumi
Alias (Nickname): Quil

Age & Gender

He appears as though he is in his early teens, but is actually 21, and is male

Appearance

Humanoid Form:

Personality

Quil is usually a very quiet person, and while he does like being in a crowd, he prefers to be hidden, or at least only in the background. His passion is reading, and it was in a library in Japan where he received his powers, after a freak explosion that fused his DNA with ink molecules. He is very timid around people, especially women, though he can be friendly if you get on his good side. To get on his good side it is recommended to have a good knowledge of books. Quil himself is uncaring of the differences between good and bad, and his timidness can on off occasions cause him to switch to the winning side of a conflict, to avoid failure and the consequences. Quil also has a pet raven named Pen, ironically named before the incident, as Quil would use the birds molted feathers to write with.

Alignment

Chaotic Neutral: He is chaotic not because of personality, and is actually quite calm unless enraged, but because of his tendency to switch sides

Backstory and Powers

By all intents and purposes, Quil should be dead, however in a freak accident his DNA was altered in a way that caused his body to morph into an ink like substance. Thus the nickname Quil, as in an ink Quill pen. Noticeable features include Ink ability, large spiky black hair, one regular eye, one eye blacked out with one white pupil, and a cloak made of his ink-like body (feels like fabric as he can adjust the density of his body to a point, though this makes him vulnerable to pain from cuts and the like. Strengths: Near invulnerable to most physical attacks (this is because his body is a liquid unless he is attacking or other environmental effects have hardened his body, can move silently by gliding over floors rather than walking, use hardened ink tendrils as weapons, disguise (as a shadow, strange liquid in containers, poor silhouetted shapeshifting, or as articles of clothing), Can latch on to people and constrict like a snake, can translate any language and decipher most codes (Due to immense studying after incident)
Weaknesses: In liquid form he can be trapped in containers, frozen, and cannot attack. As a humanoid he can also be frozen and thus smashed. True weakness is acid, as while he can reform after being smashed, he can be dissolved by acid. Shy by nature, he is typically nervous around women (inexperiance heh heh) and only gets truely powerful and into a fight when engraged. Fire Extinguishers can cause a temporary freezing effect on his body to cause him to be hurt with physical attacks

The Player (Ashton Mercer, Game Moderation)

Name: The Player
Age and Gender: Unknown (appears to be an adolescent or teenage male of indeterminate age)

Appearance:

This picture supposedly is of The Player, staring into a lake (location and photographer unknown).

Personality

Those who have spoken with The Player, and are not psychic or possessing a super-enhanced brain invariably forget the encounter within three days, but several traits of The Player are known from the reports of those who spoke with him and were interviewed or recorded their own encounters before forgetting everything. This is what we know:

-The Player is a clinical sociopath: virtually all of his words and actions repeatedly show a complete disregard for human life and suffering, and he also shows many antisocial tendencies.
-The Player views most aspects of popular culture with a mixture of bemusement and disgust, and openly disavows both if prompted to converse.
-The Player is uninterested in drugs, alcohol, or bodily excess of any kind, and he identifies his orientation as asexual.
-The Player shows an appreciation for "quiet art" and aesthetic beauty, as well as a deep love of nature, and most non-human animals in the wild (with the notable exception of tamed animals or those under psychic control). He is more likely to "like" humans who share similar tastes.
-The Player has a dry, mildly sarcastic sense of humor, although according to witnesses, he has a hard time understanding even basic jokes and puns told to him, even ones that he had said earlier that were later repeated to him by others.
-The Player does in fact operate off of a moral code, but aside from valuing minimal interaction with humans, the code is incomprehensible to anyone he has conversed with and appears to be extremely capricious. He has been reported to punish people for things such as "meta-gaming", "power-playing", and "being an OP asshole" (among others), and has been known to kill and/or violently maim those who he considers to be egregious offenders by using the full range of his powers.
-There are numerous indications that The Player has hyperintelligence and, although this is yet to be confirmed, may in fact be prescient.

Alignment: Technically N/A, practically True/Chaotic Neutral

Powers: Total, infinitely unrestrained manipulation of time, space, and the physical laws of the universe.

Leo Valdez (Ashton Mercer, Regular)

Name: Leo Valdez
Age and Gender: 12, Male
Appearance: Leo is a Latino male, standing at 4'7" and 88 lbs. He has short buzzed black hair and unnatural golden eyes with dark circles under them. Typically dons cheap sunglasses and a stolen hat when he needs to hide his identity. Wears a silver locket with unknown personal contents. Typically has some kind of bruise or scrape on his legs or arms.
Personality: Leo typically acts like a normal kid. He could be described as a little bit on the quiet side and bitterly sarcastic (partially a product of his rough upbringing), although he can be friendly and sociable if you make the effort to warm up to him in the right way.
However, when the cards fall, Leo turns into an incredibly cruel and unusually selfish person who is fully willing and able to use his fire powers either to get what he wants or to utterly destroy whatever is getting in his way or is otherwise angering him. Sometimes he'll just use his fire powers to kill or destroy things just for the hell of it. Leo also shows that he has some skill in manipulation.
+Likes: storms, fire and explosions, warm weather, money, airplanes, music, baseball, food, cats, the ocean.
-Dislikes: people who use alcohol or drugs, any sort of authority, people who society sees as "heroes", people who are so arrogant that they identify themselves as "heroes", school (math in particular).
Alignment: Chaotic Evil

Powers: Leo is a master of pyrokenisis, capable of producing jets of any color flame from his hands, mouth, and feet at a maximum distance of 25 meters and a maximum temperature of 1400° Celsius. He is also highly resistant to heat damage, being invincible to his own flames and able to temporarily withstand temperatures of up to 500° Celsius from flames produced by other sources. He also is capable of "flying" very short distances using the jets of fire, Iron Man style, but he's extremely clumsy when doing so and is more likely to hurt himself than to actually fly.

01.09.2016= Altered Alignment to Neutral from Lawful.  Also changed name from "Glacier" to "Snowman."  Added Aegis Corporation details.  Still WIP though

02.09.2016= Made Snowman Trudeau instead of Putin.

Now Trudeau is someone that I like. Re-Approved.

Name: Senator David Rochester
Age&Gender: 37, Male
Appearance:
Personality: A bombastic and proud man with a quick temper, Senator Rochester has risen through the political ranks to become a prominent member of the US congress through hardline stances and a fiery personality. Firmly believing that the current systems for regulating supers are inadequate, Rochester has advocated an outright death sentence for criminal supers with powers "too dangerous for a normal life". He suggests that any attempts to rehabilitate such people are stupid and dangerous. Senator Rochester has a strong fixation on political participation in the populace, and encourages people to witness debates live with an odd vigor. Do not be fooled by his seeming concern for others though, because Rochester, in truth, is a super himself. And one that is hell bent on climbing to the top of the political ladder while taking out anyone he deems to be in his way while getting there.
Alignment: Lawful Evil
Powers: Super strength and insane charisma to anyone that speaks to the man in person thanks to mutated pheromone glands in his skin.

Name

Name: James Caspiel
Alias: Arithmos (occasionally Arith)

Age and Gender

Age: 42
Gender: Male

Appearance

(I'm not sure, I'm terrible with appearances, maybe a more "normal" appearance)

Personality

A reserved and somewhat withdrawn man, James attempts to keep a low-key profile. He is rational and calm, and able to (with the help of his power) make calculated decisions even in dangerous or stressful situations.

James prides himself in his intelligence, quick wit, and intuitive spatial reasoning skills. In high school, his superhuman abilities in math and physics led him to score high in both the USAMO and USAPhO. His intuitive understanding of physics in the real world also led him to do rather well in several sports, including badminton and martial arts.

James finds mathematical beauty in both human efficiency/order and the organized chaos of nature, but does become easily annoyed when he senses disorderness (for example, when a building's proportions are slightly off).

Although James is somewhat altruistic, his concerns are largely for himself. He works as an independent consulting civil engineer, owning and operating a small LA-based firm known for its quality of work and comparatively low prices in local circles. However, he has also amassed a considerable wealth from investments, including in stocks and real estate, using his intuition for numbers to succeed economically. James' wealth has largely been gained legally (including the usual tax avoidance strategies), partially as a challenge to himself, but mostly as a safety precaution against the authorities. He understands the necessity of not flaunting his wealth and power, and as such lives an outwardly modest, yet comfortable, life.

James considers himself both a secular humanist and a transhumanist, and consequently makes inconspicuous donations to various singularitarian and life-extension research organizations, as well as to other nonprofits of his interest. He avoids political donations in an attempt to keep a lower profile; untraceable or small donations to politicians would not grant him any influence, so he generally views them as useless.

Alignment

Chaotic Neutral/Good

Power

James is ridiculously good with numbers and their applications. His power allows him to intuitively understand the world around him through numbers. This offers him a multitude of advantages in a variety of areas:

Combat. James can see the world unfold around him in numbers, even seeing and understanding mathematical notations at high speeds. His understanding of physics, coupled with superhuman calculations regarding everything around him, allows him to predict his opponents' movements probabilistically. His abilities to calculate trajectories to the finest detail make him an excellent marksman. In unarmed combat, he is aided by an intuition for biomechanics, and can visualize potential attack vectors, see the stress points on his enemies' bodies, and calculate hits and dodges for maximum efficiency.

Physical advantages. James' abilities with numbers offers him other physical advantages as well. For example, he can survive multiple-story drops by calculating the most efficient way to absorb the impact force, horizontally wall-run, and set up a controlled demolition in a very short time. His superhuman understanding of the world also helps him notice when something is off, such as when an invisible power is interacting minutely with the world around it.

Probabilistic predictions. James can predict future actions, especially on larger scales. He can analyze past change through numbers as well. This is helpful when predicting economic shifts (which is a large part of how he has gained his wealth), as well as for humans on a larger scale.

Finance abilities. James lives and breathes numbers, the language of money. He can visualize the day-to-day transactions of the world around him, and uses this skill heavily for his own advantage.

General math/physics skills. James' math abilities aid him in his day job as a civil engineer. It allows him to work more efficiently, lowering costs and gaining an edge over his competitors. His self-employed quality work grants him a flexible schedule while still remaining relatively unsuspicious.

Approved: roster edited.

Harper was anti-science, racist trash. I would much rather have a SJW dynasty politician than someone who endorses policies that intentionally mistreat Aboriginal Canadians and punish scientists for doing climate work. In any case, we can both agree that he's better than that dickhead Putin.

Superhero Name: The Flash
Real Name: Barry Allen

Age and Gender

Age: 27
Gender: Male

Appearance

Personality

Barry tends to keep to himself, working in his laboratory at NCIS. He is usually calm and collected, but does sometimes act on emotions such as anger.

As a child, he saw his mother murdered and his father was wrongfully convicted for that murder, giving him strong morals and ethics. He decided to join the forensics department of NCIS for this purpose, to investigate crime and try to free his father. Also, his morals convince him to use his powers to help others and fight crime.

Barry is also stubborn, not learning from his flaws until he experiences them firsthand, and when he has his mind set to do something, it is highly unlikely to be able to change it.

Alignment

Lawful/Neutral Good

Power

Speed/Agility/Reflexes - Barry is able to move at vast speeds, allowing him to run across vertical surfaces and over large bodies of water. Using this speed for his various daily activities, he can near-instantly complete his different tasks, leaving him plenty of time to relax. Barry is able to reach Mach 3.3 on his own, and with tachyon enhancements, to Mach 13.2. He also has flawless coordination, equilibrium and dexterity. This allows him to change direction through immediate sharp turns without sliding or losing balance. Furthermore, he can jump and run along falling debris. His reaction time is also augmented, allowing him to react to events faster than normal humans, such as dodging and catching bullets. Also using his speed, he is able to appear like he's in many places at once, when in reality, he is simply bouncing back and forth too fast for the human mind to perceive the difference. While moving at accelerated speeds, Barry burns calories much faster than a normal person. This requires him to consume large amounts of nutrients. Continued usage of his speed while deprived renders him disoriented and weak before ultimately passing from low blood glucose.

Accelerated Healing - Barry's molecules move at accelerated rates, causing the chemical reactions of metabolism to mend and even restore any damages much quicker and efficiently than regular humans. He also heals quickly to sickness, disease, drugs, toxins, and poisons. Downside include being unaffected by painkillers, sedatives, or anesthetics, and not being able to get drunk since his metabolism burns through the alcohol too quickly.

Bodily Vibrations - Barry can vibrate different body parts on command for various effects. He can vibrate his face to conceal his identity. Similarly, he can vibrate to create small tremors to induce extreme amounts of jolt on any target he touches. Offensively, he can vibrate his limbs, creating a buzz-saw effect to seamlessly grind through a target. Also, he is able to vibrate his hands back and forth to create friction and heat.

Aerokinesis - Barry can use his speed to generate air flow as vacuums on various levels. He can suffocate people by creating a vortex around them by running around them. He can spin his arms to create small tornadoes to remove air from fire and extinguish it and repel targets away.

Most of it looks good, except I'm pretty sure I told you "no" on healing/poison resistance. If you edit that out, I'll approve it.

Sgt. Ellis Duke

Age and Gender

Male, 35

Appearance

Personality

Duke is a man of strong convictions and believes in discipline and balance. He enlisted in the US Army at age 18 right out of high school and served 3 tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. His time overseas caused him to change from an eager, outgoing teenager to a more serious and short-tempered man. He was honorably discharged from the Army after returning from his third tour some years ago when he began to show signs of PTSD. The death of his friends and trauma he experienced made him realize that there is no objective "good" and that the only things worth fighting for are order, peace, and the man standing next to you. Duke despises those who take advantage of others (be they for noble or evil aims) and has a soft spot for other veterans.

Alignment

Lawful Neutral

Powers

Telekinesis. Duke is able to move objects and people (including himself) with his mind if he focuses enough on them. He can push, pull, or lift objects totaling up to several hundred pounds with ease, but if he needed to and really focused, he could lift a single object weighing 10,000 lbs. He can create a makeshift shield by lifting a large object or several small objects, use them as melee weapons, and throw them as projectiles (whether targeted or just away from his body in all directions). He can levitate himself off the ground to "fly" but only 100 feet or so high and only as fast as about sprinting speed.

This is what happens when I'm too lazy to be original.
