[glow=red,2,300]Approved[/glow] Owner: Star Hero Name: Storm Real Name: Ororo Munroe Age: 29 Picture/Description: Personality: Kind, good with children, a great teacher and leader. Bit of an attitude with those that think that being a mutant is somehow a curse or a disease. Always willing to help others even at the cost of her own life. Claustrophobic. Alignment/Rank: Hero Group: Field Leader of the X-men Powers: Power to control the weather and can fly at high speeds Weaknesses: Normal physical limitations outside of her powers Family: Parents - Deceased Background: Ororo's mother, N'Dare, was the princess of a tribe in Kenya and the descendant of a long line of Africans with white hair, blue eyes and a natural gift for sorcery, which Storm's Egyptian ancestor, Ashake, is expert in. N'Dare fell in love with and married African American photojournalist David Munroe. They move to Harlem in uptown New York City, where they have Ororo, and then to Egypt during the Suez War, where they were killed in a botched aircraft attack and left six-year-old Ororo as an orphan. There, her violent claustrophobia began as result of being buried under tons of rubble after that attack. She then became a skilled thief in Cairo under the benign Achmed el-Gibar, and wandered into the Serengeti as a young woman, where she was worshipped as a goddess before Professor X recruited her for the X-Men Other:

[glow=red,2,300]Approved[/glow] Owner: Lob Hero Name: Spider-Man Real Name: Peter Parker Age:20 Picture/Description: Personality: As a kid he was picked on by bullies and was a little drawn back. Once he got his powers he began "coming out of his shell" when he was out as Spider-Man. As he grew older his sophmorish wit and charm began to shine through even as he mild mannered Peter Parker. Very committed to his beliefs, the core beleif being taught to him by his late uncle Ben was "With great power comes great responsibilty.". Spider-Man keeps a vigilant watch over New York never forgetting to, above all else, do what's right. Alignment/Rank: Super Hero Group: Avengers Powers: He has the proportionate strength of a spider, can stick to solid surfaces, able to shoot webbing from his wrist which he uses to travel the city and for fighting, and has a "spider sense" which warns him of danger before it happens. Weaknesses: His Family and friends. Most namely His aunt May and his wife Mary Jane. They were the reason for him keeping his identity secret for so long, but now in the Civil War storyline he has revealed it. Family: Richard Parker (Father/Deceased), Mary Parker (Mother/deceased), Ben Parker (Uncle/Deceased), May Parker (Aunt), Mary Jane Watson Parker(Wife). Background: Orphaned as a baby when his parents were killed overseas in a plane crash as U.S. government spies, only child Peter Parker was raised by his elderly Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Academically gifted, Peter displayed an uncanny affinity for science that was nothing short of genius. Socially, however, he was painfully shy and the target of much cruelty by his peers at Midtown High School. Attending a public science exhibit when Peter was 15-years old, he was bitten on the hand by a radioactive spider accidentally irradiated by a particle beam, empowering Peter with the arachnid's proportional strength and agility, and the ability to cling to almost any surface. Most incredibly, he had gained a sixth sense that provided him with early warning of impending danger. Disguised, Peter tested his new-found abilities defeating professional wrestler Crusher Hogan in the ring, and earning some cash. Using his scientific prowess, he constructed a pair of artificial web-shooters that attached to his wrists (Later he mutated the ability to create webbing naturaly) . With an agent, a costume, and a new name, Spider-Man became an overnight sensation on television. Unconcerned with the rest of the world, he vowed to use his powers only to take care of himself and his aunt and uncle. After his first TV special ended, he allowed a burglar that he could have easily restrained to run past him and escape. A few days later, Peter returned home to find his beloved Uncle Ben had been shot and killed. When Spider-Man confronted the killer hiding in the old Acme Warehouse at the waterfront, he discovered to his horror that his uncle's murderer was the burglar he apathetically allowed to pass. Consumed with guilt, he became aware at last that with great power comes great responsibility, just as his beloved uncle had once said. Other: (anything else you think we should know)

NO OOC posts in the IC sections, which includes this one. Keep it in the OOC threads which are on both the Play board and the Profile boad. 1st warning folks. The above will be deleted shortly, as will this (and all my approval notes) after a reasonable time period.
Now to the approvals/comments etc.
First off... I had not expected/thought of this problem but... New rule (to be added to the Rules! in a minute) You may not have 2 characters of near identical powers. Ex. No one person may have Superman and Bizarro Superman.
Secondly- Lob, you may not have both Spiderman and Mystique. At this time everyone is limited to only 1 well known/popular character. Decide on one only and remove the other.
Also these are both 'Supers' and at this time I'm limiting who may have Supers. I'll allow you one for now, though I reserve the right to put all Supers back up for adoption if the person playing them does not keep up with the RP. (Yes I consider Mystique a Super because of the versatility of her power, despite the lack of mimicing other powers)
Hiei- Wolverine is approved.
Frankie- unfortunately you are a still a new student and therefore I'm not going to allow you a Superhero at this time, which is what Toxin would be with the current stated level and types of powers. If you want to seriously cut back his abilities/strengths then I could downgrade him to Hero maybe, or you can wait until you've proven yourself capable of handling a Super by writing first for a regular Hero.

Lob- Spiderman is now approved. I've removed Mystique as someone else may wish to play her a bit differently.

[glow=red,2,300]Approved[/glow] I've edited her now, and she has different powers, and a different past. I hope she's ok now...
Owner:Hiei
Hero Name:Nightwolf Real Name:Kathy Wilde
Age:16
Picture/Description:Black hair, about waist-length, braided; blue eyes; black leather X-Men uniform, black boots, black fingerless gloves or black tank top with a howling wolf silhouetted against the moon on the chest, black leather pants, black boots, black leather jacket worn open, chains hanging from various belt loops, black fingerless gloves
(In this pic, she's in the middle of shapeshifting into her wolf form.)
Personality:Rather aggressive; feral; loyal; fiercely independent; tends to be somewhat sarcastic; often pretty hyper

Powers:Enhanced senses(in all forms, weaker in human than in anything else), four short steel claws in each foot, slightly accelerated healing(quite a bit weaker than Logan's), shapeshifting(mammal forms only), enhanced stamina(in all forms, weaker in human than in anything else)
Family:Father, mother, little brother, all living in New York City Background:Kathy's family dealt with her "condition" until she was about 10 or 11, at which point she became too much to handle. They were making plans to put her in an asylum when she ran away. She slowly made her way to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, and was welcomed there. Since then, she has practically attached herself to Logan, and, surprisingly enough, he has tolerated it, becoming a sort of father and mentor to her.

[glow=red,2,300]Approved[/glow]Owner:Idiot Hero Name:Daredevil Real Name:Matthew (Matt) Murdock Age: by the looks of it, I'm guessing 32. Picture/Description: Matt Murdock is a fairly toned, average height guy. He has mid-length red hair, and always wears sunglasses. He's often in a suit, and uses a blind man's cane. Daredevil is, well, take a look. Personality: Matt Murdock has a strong sense of justice, being a lawyer. He'll sometimes make sure that Daredevil gives evildoers what's coming to them, in spite of imperfections in the legal system. Also, saying he's pretty fearless would be an understatement. Alignment/Rank: Hero Group: Unaffiliated Powers: Daredevil has the enhanced senses of touch, taste, smell, and hearing. He also has a sort of radar or echolocation. Because of his enhanced sense of touch, his dexterity and reflexes are almost superhuman. He also has with him a billy club, which he uses as a weapon. A cable can extend from the club, which he uses to swing through New York. Weaknesses: He's completely blind, and has only the strength of a regular human who happens to work out a lot. Loud noises also seem to distort his "radar." Family: Matt was raised by his father, who was a boxer and an enforcer for a mob. His father was killed by the mob boss when he refused to throw a match. Matt has a surrogate father-type figure named Stick, who trained him in what could probably be called "blind martial arts." Stick is also blind, and apparently the head of a band of ninjas called "the Chaste." In the wikipedia site, several significant others are listed, but I'm going to ignore them all for now, for the RP, unless someone decides to play as one of them. Background: Matt was blinded when he was young, when he was hit by a truck containing radioactive chemicals. He found Stick, or Stick found him, and he was trained in martial arts. Matt graduated from lawschool, and became a lawyer. When his dad was killed, and the murderer never convicted, Matt took on the persona of Daredevil to avenge his father's death. Other: Apparently it goes back and forth between the cause of his heightened senses being the radioactive chemicals and just compensation for being blind. I'll be playing as though it's a combination of both.

[glow=red,2,300]Approved[/glow] Owner:Idiot Hero Name:X-23 Real Name:Laura Kinney Age:I'll put her as 16 Picture/Description: Personality: Upon initially encountering her, X-23 might be mistaken for a typical young woman, calm and quiet, (with the DNA of Wolverine). However, as her character evolved, she has become somewhat darker and more complex. X-23 is very taciturn, rarely uttering more than five words at a time. She also engages in self-harm, cutting herself with her own claws, something she has done since a very young age. X-23 is a highly trained and skilled combatant; she is able to kill dozens of heavily armed opponents during a single encounter, and she does so with little emotion or remorse. Alignment/Rank: SuperHero Group: X-men Powers: Since she is a female clone created from Wolverine's genetic material, X-23's mutant powers are quite similar to his. Noted differences are the number of hand claws (she has two to Wolverine's three) and X-23's foot claws (which he lacks entirely). These claws were brutally extracted by Zander Rice, sharpened, coated with adamantium, and reinserted into her body. X-23 escaped before the procedure to fuse her entire skeleton with adamantium could be performed. Consequently, she possesses an increased healing factor. However, even though her healing factor is potentially greater than Wolverine's, her body is more fragile because she lacks his muscular build and adamantium skeleton. X-23 received intensive training in ranged weapons, explosives, and both armed and unarmed martial arts. Her skills are so advanced that during the New X-Men's confrontation with the advanced sentinel code-named Nimrod, she was the only member of the team that the sentinel assessed as a severe threat. Weaknesses: She lacks the adamantium skeleton of Wolverine, and she didn't really have any emotional development growing up. She also goes into an uncontrollable, murderous rage when she smells something developed by the Weapon X facility called "trigger scent." Family: X-23 is a female clone of Wolverine and the daughter of Sarah Kinney. Sarah Kinney was a geneticist hired by the Weapon X program to create a viable clone, and though she didn't know it, carrying the child would be part of the deal. Years later, X-23 accidentally killed Sarah after sniffing the trigger scent (which Zander Rice had planted upon Kinney). Now orphaned and needing help, X-23 sought out Wolverine. X-23 also apparently keeps in contact with Sarah's sister and niece. Background: The weapon X folks wanted to fuse someone else with adamantium, but they couldn't find anyone else who could survive the process. They decided to clone Logan, but couldn't quite get it right (The Y chromosome on the one DNA sample they had was damaged). In the end, after 22 failed attempts, they decided to try a female clone, doubling the X chromosome. X-23 was born. When she was 7, she was exposed to radiation, so that her powers would manifest. They then extracted her claws by force and covered them with adamantium, and created the trigger scent, which they later used to kill some people within the organization... X-23 was subjected to lots of training while with the weapon X folks, including training that mimiced Wolverine's moves. She moved in sync with a hologram of Logan while he was there. She outperformed Wolverine in these tests. She eventually got out of the facility, and found her mother's family. At around 16, she met up with the X-men, and became very protective of Wolverine.

[glow=red,2,300]Approved[/glow]Owner: Star Hero Name: Psylocke Real Name: Betsy Braddock Age: 25 Picture/Description: Personality: Overall Besty is a nice English girl, but don't cross her or you'll regret it. With her skills she is not easily intimidated and so tends to be quie confidant and it shows. A bit on the mysterious side she doesn't like to talk about her past too much. Alignment/Rank: Hero Group: X-Men Powers: Telepathy, Telekinesis (psychic knife) Weaknesses: Normal human limitations Family: Brian Braddock (Captain Britain) Background: Elisabeth "Betsy" Braddock was born in the small town of Maldon, Essex, Betsy and her brothers had a very privileged life. She is the twin sister of Brian Braddock, better known as the superhero Captain Britain. After working as a commercial pilot for some time, she joined the psi-division of S.T.R.I.K.E. At one time she replaced her brother as Captain America and at one point her eyes were gouged out by a foe. She was later kidnapped by Mojo and implanted with bionic eyes. She was rescued by the X-men. The X-Men were reluctant to let Psylocke join them due to her being an unknown quantity. But she proved herself during a trying time and they granted her membership in their team. The leader of the Hand, a clan of ninja, Matsu'o Tsurayaba, contacted Spiral to swap the mind of Kwannon into Psylocke's body. Spiral not only swapped their minds but mingled various memories and skills, as well as certain physical traits. With some physical and mental conditioning, Psylocke (inhabiting Kwannon's body) became the Hand's prime assassin and took the name Lady Mandarin. She gained highly remarkable ninja fighting skills, and learned to focus her telepathic power into her "psychic knife". Lady Mandarin's first mission pitted her against Wolverine. Her psychic knife attack showed her his memories of who she used to be and broke the Hand's conditioning. Psylocke rejected her role as Lady Mandarin and escaped with Wolverine and Jubilee. Later there was the arrival of Kwannon -- now calling herself Revanche, in Betsy's former body. Revanche claimed to be the real Betsy, and not even Wolverine's enhanced senses could tell them apart. Eventually, Revanche revealed that she had contracted the Legacy Virus. Dying, Revanche merged her mind with Psylocke's and the merger restored the full memories of both. Psylocke was able to retain Revanche's martial arts skills upon Revanche's death.

I suppose I better put the Prof up since I seem to be having to use him a goodly bit. He'll be a PNPC or permanent NPC. Only I may use him to any detail but anyone else may minor pose him if needed. Minor pose means saying he is in the room, or teaching a class etc. Approved Owner: PNPC Hero Name: Professor X Real Name: Charles Xavier Age: 45 Picture/Description: Shameless use of Patrick Stewart Personality: Alignment/Rank: Superhero, Founder and Leader of the X-men, Headmaster of Xaviers School for Gifted Children Powers: Genius-level intellect and vast telepathic powers, including the abilities to read others' thoughts, alter memories, and cast illusions; able to become an astral form and destroy others' astral forms; able to project powerful mental bolts Family: Parents deceased, Step-father deceased, step-brother Cain (Juggernaut) Background: In graduate school he met and fell in love with Moira but lost her when he was drafted to war. Met and efreainded Magneto. Partially paralized in a fight with an evil entity. Becomes 'enemies' with Magneto over thier opposing views of 'mutant superiority'. Other: There is of course a lot of stuff the Professor X has done over the course of the comics, but for the most part the above history is all that's really applicable.
