Image property of MetroModelerSetting: Pinnacle City. A Growing City with increasingly growing problems. A dark force lurks in the shadows of this unsuspecting city and the only way the city will ever find peace again is through the aid of super...teens? Pinnacle City is more technologically advanced than any other city in the world, but there is also a slight hint of magic in the air. Practically anything can be a source of super human powers. Humans are most common, but all kinds of humanoids can be found in Pinnacle City, it's just that not all of them are looked high upon by society... Long ago, bonds were put into place. Bonds that hid the races of lore from motral eyes as well as the magics they harnessed. These bonds were put in place to protect the humans from their own greed and corruptions. These bonds have kept order for thousands of years, until 100 years ago, when the bonds began to weaken. Now, elves and dwarves can be seen walking the streets as well as the occasional practitioner of the old arts. However, the sudden introduction of magic into a world that had not seen anything like it in thousands of years does not come without it's price. The exposure caused some to mutate. Most of those that were affected by the mutation took on animalistic traits, such as tails or ears of their animal counter parts. Rarely does a mutation take them into a complete half mix of the two, but those that do become wild and feral. Even rarer than these are the ones that developed superhuman powers instead of any visible animal traits. In a world of technology, magic, and mutants, someone is bound to take their newfound powers out of hand, are you willing to take up the call? System: This setting will be using the Mutants and Masterminds 1st edition rule set for character creation and balance. To roll, use the "Roll Dice" option on a reply and wait until either I determine your success/failure or to compare with your fellow players' rolls.

For those who wish to join, send me a character idea and if I accept it, I can aid you in character creation should you need it. Don't send me a full blown character until the idea has been accepted, otherwise you could have made your character for nothing.
Characters must meet the following requirements: *Must be of High School age (i.e. = 13 - 19) or at least have the appearance and mentality of being around that age. The campaign is set to start a month before school starts up, so charcters should be thinking about classes and schoolwork as well. *Must be a Hero (No villians, but your hero could be a rouge character, meaning they're rather unruly compared to their comrades. *Must be willing to join a super hero team. If your character doesn't, then there's no point in joining. *Humanoids only please. Any kind of humanoids can be found in Pinnacle City. *Must live in the base. Characters will probably be asked for emergency contact information in case they get hurt, so prepare some background story. *Develop the character. Tell me the character's personality or history so I know you put some thought into the character.
This RP has a 5 Player Limit (not including the GM). Spots are reserved based on a first come first serve basis. Here are the players and their characters: Arctican-ZarJa_Mar* Real Name: Rygel Darius Rygel is very friendly, especially if you like to snowboard. He is also very intelligent, despite his laid back demeanor, and will carry on conversations of many kinds. He is slow to anger and if he has one fault, is that he won't hit a girl. Ever. In fact, to a point, he's intimidated by them. He does have a good sense of duty on his shoulders and will do what he can if he feels he is needed. Rygel is an avid snowboarder. If he had the chance, he would snowboard everyday. However, at the end of the day, he would eventually find his way back home, drooling over his father's newest experiment. He himself enjoyed taking after his father's example and developed a ski goggle with a computer built in to detect speed and identify approaching obsticles in advance as well as a ski suit that is made to keep the body comfortable at low tempratures. Recently, he noticed the steadily increasing crime rate and with that increase, he had grown tired of hearing about it. It wasn't until he came home and found the lab raided that he realized he had to do something. After convincing his father, the two of them began working on several experiments. A set of bracers that go around the whole wrist as well as a new flight enhancement to his board. Along with the gear he already developed, he took on the alias 'Arctican' and his father now sponsers a super group headquarters so they may help Arctican in defeating crime.
Dynamite Raver-Fiver Real Name: Samuel Clerk Sam is a classic problem child, staying out late at night, going to raves, with no thought for other people or his own future. He just wants to have a party. His mutations have been latent his entire life, and due to having no external sign of mutation, have up until recently gone completely unnoticed. Now that he has powers, he joined a superhero team just because it seemed like the thing to do. He feels no sense of obligation to any organization, and is probably behind on the paperwork required for application, having given no contact information for family, and being reluctant to answer any personal questions.
Sara Liplock-Alex Bradley Real Name: Sara Liprock Even though she was born in the USA her parents are from Japanise (Mom) and Korean (Dad). The moveed to the USA in hopes of raising there chidren in a country full of freedom. Sara has a younger brother and sister ages 15 and 13. She loves music and wants to be the best singer/guitarist of her time. However because that is mostly what she cares about her grades have slipped down to a D average, well not in music class anyways. When she was 16 her boyfriend got more drunk then normal and more violent. They got into an arguement and he hit her noocking her to the floor, but he wasn't done yet. He crouched down and pinned her to the floor. Then started to pummel her with his fist. After about the third or fifth hit, she can't really remember, he started yelling and curseing. It was then she realized that ever time he tried to punch her his fist would swirve and miss or turn back and crack him in the shoulder. Despite her small size she easly pushed him off of her and got up and left. From that day forth she has had no boyfriend problems (she did break up with him FYI). She finds it hard to think of herself as a "Good guy or Hero" but at the same time she doesn't want to take over the planet or something stupid like that. She drinks and smokes, but tries to hide it from her parents she doesn't want the agruements. Her bro and sis pull almost straight A's in school and are planing on going to college and the fact that they don't drink, smoke, or have sex doesn't help the fact that they make her feel like the black sheep of the family. They really don't know what there missing...
Arsenal-GoldenRaziel Real Name-Raziel Douglas Raziel, or "Raz" as his friends call him, is your average popular guy. He's a jock, a ladies man, and a definite people person. He's not the brightest crayon in the box, but he's friendly and will depend on flashing his smile to get what he wants most of the time. Most of the time, he's a really nice guy, though. If anything, he's a little bit of a hopeless romantic, being that he falls in love with almost any attractive girl he sees. He has an average relationship with his parents, hardly talks to them but doesn't argue with them at all and does what he's told. He also values the opinion of his little sister Kitty, or "Kit" for short, very highly. His little sister is 6 and also shares foxy features. Raziel takes on the appearance of your average jock. He's tall, handsome, well built, and wears a red muscle tee to show it off. He also often wears blue jeans that allow his fox tail to move about freely. His red fox ears poke through his medium-short messy red hair, which would almost cover his emerald green eyes, but falls kind of short of it. He has a tattoo on his left shoulder of the Japanese kanji for 'Fox'. When in his super hero mode, he wears a red jumpsuit with black stripes, with a pair of blast goggles that have a dark red rim and green lenses. On the back of this jumpsuit is a kanji for 'Fox' in black. He's 18 and stands at 6'2".
Shizuka Sky-[ Rose ] Real Name: Skye Lewes Skye is a small, quiet fourteen year old girl interested in writing, languages, and history. She's usually found reading a book off in a corner by herself and she rarely talks with anyone she doesn't feel close to. This is because at a young age her mother and father divorced for complicated reasons and Skye blamed herself no matter how many times her father told her not to. A few years passed and she and her father were forced to sell their house because they didn't have enough money to pay the government the annual taxes. They struggled, and during this time Skye learned how hard it is to live without luxuries and how to use her head. Overtime, her father became ill and was forced to live in a hospital by her uncle's orders. (Her uncle happens to own the hospital.) She currently lives on her own wherever she can find shelter. Several people at school think she is a cold girl because she acts like she ignores them, whereas she really just doesn't like talking to most people. She's also always felt like she was alone in the world. As a young girl she once had been playing with another girl who lived by her. As they were fooling around together, Skye felt a strange sense of power come from within her and then a strong gust of wind seemed to come out of nowhere. The gust became like a small blade at the last moment and brushed against the other girl, cutting her cheek and leaving a scar. Skye's ability has always scared her since.

The BaseThe Base has four floors: Three above ground for use by the team, one underground used only for the team's sponser. The building nor the team itself has a name yet, Arctican and his father are waiting to accept the rest of the team before deciding on such details. 1st Floor 2nd Floor 3rd Floor *The colored in area is a hole in the floor that goes down to the 2nd floor. The area has a railing to prevent any accidents from happening.* Rooms are customized the way the character wants it. Upon character creation, each player chooses a room for their character. The bedrooms are on the third floor. NOTE: I do not profess to be the greatest artist in the world, infact I believe I'm far from that title, so please don't critisize my work unless it's to tell me I should have another room in there. I tried, I really did. ^ ^;

Hmm... Not sure which room to take, though I'm thinking the one opposite Arctican's. ^_^ Though no matter where he lives, chances are everyone can hear his music.

I, as usual, can get access through Rob for now. John seems interested, but I don't know if he has the means.

((Either way, Let's begin. ^ ^))
Chapter 1: Meet the Team
The building was quiet. Everything was finally in place. It has been nearly a week since everything has been set up in the base, and Rygel waited patiently for the first applicants to arrive. He sat at the front desk of the main hall with a folder out in front of him. He flopped open the folder, looking through the names of the potential team mates. "There's not that much here..." He sighed to himself as he slouched in his chair, "How are we going to pull this off?"
"Don't worry, I have faith in you, Ry." Rygel sat up instantly. An older man entered the room, wearing a white labcoat, beneath it was a black button up shirt and tan khaki pants. Besides the fact that the man was taller and obviously looked older, the two would have looked identical. He gave a warm comforting smile to Rygel. "Don't let the applicants intimidate you."
"Dad..thanks." He looked back down at the folder of applicants. "I can tell this is going to turn out better than I expected."
"Great. Well, I just came up here for some coffee. I'm going to head back downstairs, buzz me if you need anything." He waved over his shoulder and left the room again.
Rygel slouched back down in his chair. "I just want to get this application portion over with."

ooc "if i'm over steping my rights by adding detail to somethings please till me and I will change it. I'm just adding color and depth to the game, but I don't want to make problems for you"
"Honey wake up" came the voice of her Mom over the dream she was having about some hot guy at school. Only a month lift and she will be back to normal routine of sleeping in class, hanging all over guys, and rocking out with the band late at night. "I said wake up young lady" Came her mothers voice again, but this time it was as she was opening the door to her room. "I'm coming" she mouned from under the covers. She looked at the clock and it said 2pm. Not that she was surpised she had been up late praticeing her guitar and singing.
As she got up to get dressed she sees the letter on her desk. Mom must have left it there. As she picked it up she sees that it's addressed to her. This was her last year of high school and some of the colleges have been sending mail. But there was no University of Whatever or Whocares College address on it. It was a plain white envelope with a odd symbol on it that she had never seen before. Now very much wanting to know what was inside it she opens the envelope. She takes the letter out and reads it quietly to herself. It sayed something about joining a group of herios who protect the city from evil and all that jazz. She really didn't care about any of that to tell you the truth, but want did catch her eye was the part about geting to live in this really nice building. No parents she thought. "No parents" she said out loud without thinking about it. The idea of it was grand and there it was seating right in front of her.
She hurried getting dressed. Went downstair to grap something to munch on and headed straight for the address on the letter. It wasn't hard to find she had seen the building in it's construction stat a couple of time already. When she finaly got there she hurried inside. The sooner she got this over with the sooner she could move out and be free. As she entered the building she saw a rack with maps so she picked one up and looked at it. The building seemed nice on paper, but she could mess with that later for right now she wanted to she the head man the big boss of the team. Scanning the map she sees what looks like Rygel's office. "The name matches with the name on the letter so that has to be it" she says to herself. So off she goes to find the room.
When she got to the door she stopped infront of it. "Great. Well, I just came up here for some coffee. I'm going to head back downstairs, buzz me if you need anything." came a voice from the other side right before the door swung open and a much older looking man with a lab coat stepped out. "Oh you must be one of the applicants then, I see, well my son is inside waiting for you." He said warmly and then want about his way to the stairs. Well at least Rygel's dad was nice lets hope Rygel himself is ok was her only thought as she opened the door...

(( It's perfectly alright. ^ ^ Creativity is encouraged. If it doesn't work, I'll tell you. ))
The doors swung open again and Rygel sat up in his seat. He stopped going through the papers and instead put them in one neat stack. "P-please, come in." The girl couldn't have been much older than 16 and looked rather attractive. She seemed to be of eastern descent as well. "What is your name, ma'am? Do you have an application with us, or would you like to fill one out?"

Sam sits for the time being in whatever they have for a waiting room, playing idly with a rubber ball he got... somewhere, and waiting for his name to come up. Not having been particularly punctual, he falls likely at the end of the list.
