A Series of Superhumans: An RP Registration thread

[AThe1412]

I forgot about this thread, again... I'll write up my character when I have time.

Plot starts with a normal day - people with superpowers blending in with normal humans (cuz idk, the GM said so). @ShionAH's character got elated and elated to experiment on stuff. Then shit immediately hits the fan and a "storm" is approaching (PROVOOOOOOOOOKING BLACK CLOUDS IN ISOLAAAAAAAAAAAATIONNNNN), the guys looks around for a fight but stuff happens and some characters run away. More players are introduced into the fray, but the chaos is still there. Creatures spawns out but @Oliver_de_jesus makes them his friend. Granda Evelyn is finally introduced and meets with Tom; they went on a mall for shopping but stops when Ceasar (@Da3ggman's character) stirs up trouble. Like a good grandmother she is (she f*cking rekts his a**) teaches him a lesson. They went to Tom's house but got caught in the middle of a fight between a "hero" iirc. Grandma then went along her way outside and Elide (@BlackDarkness679's character) is introduced. We see Evelyn get insulted by people for her looks and had criminals plan to rob/kill her for looking weird (even tho she's hot AF), which caused her to enter demon time and kill em all. She adopts Elide (2 grandson/daughter obtained) and a whole slice of life took over the RP. BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTT, there's this bird creature or whatever and became a boss fight for Tom and Elide. I became very inactive since then (busy) but Evelyn returns and oneshots the thing - making Elide and Tom impressed. That's where we at right now.

What does Evelyn look like? The image for her expired.

[AThe1412]

Name: Dave.

Age: 55.

Backstory: Former martial arts champion and athlete. An accident caused him to retire. Subsequently became homeless and struggled to get by for a while due to his health declining. Travelled to the city several weeks ago and met a strange man who gave him some soup which knocked him the hell out. Woke up next morning suddenly not feeling ill anymore. Found an untitled book with most of its pages ripped out next to him. Learned about magic and spells from it. A handwritten note in the book instructed him to find and gather the missing spells. Thought it was bullshit at first. Tested the Water Walking spell despite his fear (will be mentioned below) and realized its real. Started practicing magic and training to regain his health. Stumbled upon a page of the book while dumpster diving. Began going around searching for more pages and other magic items. Helped people along the way and became a vigilante of sorts.

Personality: Fairly stoic and serious-minded guy who likes to keep to himself. Trauma from his accident caused him to be afraid of being submerged in water (used to be able to swim but now he just panics and sinks). Doesn't like getting wet either so you'll almost never see him without a raincoat. Tries his best to keep clean despite being homeless. Has a family but left them thinking he was a burden. Has developed a sense of responsibility after gaining his powers, wanting to help others and feel useful again.

Abilities and Equipment: (I'm just gonna quote @SlendVeny)

All right. Since you have the one point in theme, you do have a spellbook. Any spells you cast take from your Mana Pool, which contains an amount of Mana Points/MP equal to your level times 10. You don't have a full mastery of your spells, so you're not fully sure how it will go. That's just how magic is.

Powers:

-Luck Aura: Complex actions, high-stakes actions, or combat actions taken within your aura are determined by a d20 dice roll.

-Martial Arts


Spells:

-Waterwalk(1 MP): You can walk on liquids as if they were solids for 5 minutes.

-Detect Magic(1 MP): You can see if something has mystical properties.

-Minor Illusion(1 MP): You can create an illusory sound or image nearby.

-Alter Self(5 MP): You can alter your physical form, while still retaining your basic shape.

-Ghostform(10 MP): For up to 10 minutes, you, and anything you wear, carry, or cast, are completely intangible.

-LaserRain(100 MP): An area of your choosing is bombarded with lasers that rain down from overhead.

Magic Items:

-Hand of Shadows: This mummified hand allows you to use an amount of MP of your choice to attempt to summon that many shadowy arms, which you can control at will. These arms are controlled by your thoughts, glide along the ground as fast as you can run, and are as physically strong as you are.

He also has a bicycle attached to a wagon which he uses to get around and transport garbage or other stuff he collects.

Appearance:


Since he's the only guy so far who explicitly has martial arts as an ability and everyone else who doesn't have it still knows how to fight, am I allowed to make him more skilled than them and if so then by how much?

Yeah, he can do dope-ass martial arts or whatever. I was imagining some drunken master kinda stuff, but whatever you want.

Cool. How should I introduce him into the plot? I guess just have him minding his own business and something happens?

Bro, he's 55. She can probably convince him to be her younger brother/the granduncle though since he does have an older sister.
