Thread: House of Spades

I can see this failing within a month or two. But I'm gonna give it a whirl while it lasts. You can stick me in the test batch if you want, or you can not. I really don't care that much.

Name: Alan Palmer

Alias: Doesn't feel the need for one.

Gender: Male

Age: 39

Physical Appearance: His muscles don't bulge. He stands at 5ft 9, and doesn't have long athletic legs perfect for running. He is actually quite plain, but not fat. Actually, overall, he is quite rangy, so people often underestimate him, and expect him to be weak. Looks slightly older than he is. He's really just quite a plain man. Shaves his head bald.

Costume: Wears a modified, plain black hoodie (or hooded sweatshirt, if you want to be all fancy about it.) It has a hood that is slightly longer than usual, and he wears a plain black mask underneath. To further the black motif, he wears plain black jeans.

Power: No power.

Skills: Weapon Proficiency(With rifles. Sniper rifles, hunting rifles, any rifles really. Major) Resourceful(Minor)

Persona: The word that is most appropriate to him is misanthropist. He hates humanity with a passion, nearly to the point of insanity. It is because of this he hunts down the people who he thinks deserve to die and then kills them cleanly. He does kill people, but usually will not torture them, unless it's absolutely necessary. He tries to deny it, but he gets a thrill from killing people, which suggests a hint of sadistic personality disorder. He is a cynic also, and he believes nearly everyone are liars. He can rationalise the killing he does because he believes he is doing the world a favour.

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

I like this attitude. It means that when I do fail you, it won't be so much of a disappointment.

You could all learn something from this.

Ha.

Where's that chapter? YOU'RE FIRED SINDRED.

Allow for time. Chapter will come. Thinking about it now.

Might put up a prologue to keep you happy.

ooh, prologue

take your time, I'm looking forward to a good RP

Hah, just trying to relive the Anti-Hero/Helm days.

If I could rape you over the internet Sindred, I would. No offence or anything.

I mean, come on, not even one chapter?

*grabs the handcuffs*

Kiza, get the lube. It's time!

Gah. How did I miss this? I hope I can get in this one at some point.

Name: Brett Archer
Alias: N/A
Gender: Male
Age: 32
Physical Appearance: Straight red hair, without freckles. Hs a subtle scar across his right eye. Stern face with sharp looking jaws and chin. 6'0"
Costume: No costume. Often seen wearing an emperor's cloak or something similar.
Power: Persuasion
Skills: Public Following (minor) Weapon Proficiency (major) - any sword, mainly katana.
Persona: He seeks world dominion and popularity. Knowing he can manipulate just about anyone he delights in power. His persona could be a reaction to a terrible tradgedy that drove him from being a kind person. (Up to you.)
Alignment: Neutral Evil

Sidenote: I didn't choose Orator as a skill since my power seems to give that by default.. amirite?

This looks awesome, by the way.

just curious...am I possibly allowed to make one more character...like a friend of Katalin Karolyi or something? I had another character idea

I hope this wasn't the fail he had in mind.

Oh...my God. I definitely forgot something. Slight addition I had it in mind for her the whole time but I just didn't get it in there.

NAME Katalin Karolyi
ALIAS She goes by no name when crime-fighting. She has left it up to the populace to give her a nickname.
GENDER Female
AGE mid-twenties
PHYSICAL APPEARANCE She has a just-noticeable Hungarian accent, but it's not terribly thick...in fact it's most accurately described as slight Hungarian inflections in her speech. Her eyebrows are thick, but chic. She has a fairly prominent Roman nose and full lips. Her sad, kind eyes would be small, but she wears glasses that are fairly strong and make her eyes look somewhat large. She refuses to wear contacts because of this nice result from the glasses. Other than that, she is not terribly vain, and wears no makeup. She has wavy, somewhat thin, golden brown hair. The build of her body is rather small, although she is average height. She has almost no boobs. She is pale and skinny.
COSTUME Hair pulled back into a black bandana, large (think Audrey Hepburn Breakfast at Tiffany's) black prescription sunglasses, tight black zip-up leather coat, black elbow-high gloves, black pants, black knee-high boots.
POWER Invisibility
SKILL Major:Martial artist Minor:Acrobat
PERSONA Typical INFP personality type. Is generally easy to work with. Will try hard to work well with the rare person she does not like. As a crime-fighter she is starting out as a loner; she goes in, does the job, and leaves before anyone knows what happened. She may seem aloof, but she's really quite the opposite. She's not concerned with being a leader or admired, in fact she doesn't like to consciously make herself look good. She feels her emotions deeply and purely, even as she dismisses them with reason. Introspective introvert that she is, she understands these facets of her personality very well, and often debates with herself. Though she is an introvert, she generally really likes people, and is capable of making close friends. She has yet to confide everything to even her closest friends though. She is known among her friends for her compassion and intelligence, but also for her sometimes goofy, sometimes black and sarcastic sense of humor, a characteristic sometimes noticed in the mysterious black-clad superhero that fights crime at night. NO ONE knows that Katalin Karolyi is a superhero.
As a superhero, her policy is to subdue the wrong-doer, and bring him/her to the police. She does not anticipate killing anyone.
ALIGNMENT Lawful good
