Name: Lexa Gilliam

Age: 25

Gift Summary: Superhuman Digestion / Growth

Appearance: Lexa is considerably well-built, although not abnormally so for her size. Her eyes and hair are usually the first thing people notice about her, being bright green and red respectively, to what is perhaps an unnatural degree. This is accentuated by her equally unnatural pale skin.

girl-1161231_960_720-jpg.448755

Personality: Lexa often comes across as being quite strong-willed, occasionally even aggressive, even when the situation doesn't demand it. Despite this, she isn't necessarily a bad person - she just has a bit if a temper, which occasionally gets out of hand. Loyalty is an incredibly big deal to her, feeling compelled to never let down those she trusts, and being inevitably disappointed when others can't do the same. As time has gone on, and her powers developed, she has felt less and less guilt about hurting other people to get what she wants.

History:
Initially growing up in an orphanage, Lexa has never known her parents. Never really settling down, she was passed from care home to care home from the age of 6, and wasn't adopted or fostered long enough to form any permanent attachments. As such, she chose to live alone when she turned 18, eventually finding work as a store clerk.

This was enough for her, and she was able to settle down happily for a few years. However, soon her abilities became apparent, when she started developing odd cravings - concrete, steel, practically anything at some stage. She ignored them for as long as possible, for fear of being 'weird', but eventually gave in to her temptations, devouring a section of copper pipe. She was surprised by the ease of this, but was unaware of the effects until a few hours later, when she inadvertently dented a solid brick wall.

As she learnt the extent of her abilities, she naturally abused them for her own purposes, earning the name of 'Titanica' in the city of [REDACTED]. For a while, she practically did whatever she wanted whenever she wanted. Eventually, however, she began to see the danger of her power and deteriorating personality, and as such travelled to Derika to start a new, better life.

Party Control: Yes.

Other: Dan Ryder is her brother, although neither of them are currently aware of this.

Name:
She goes by Silver Ferae, though her birth name is Scarlett Felis

Age:
19
Gift Summary:
Silver can turn into any mundane animal that she's seen, and has limited animal communication /empathy talents.



Appearance:
As the name she has chosen for herself suggests, Silver's hair is bright silver. It falls almost to her waist in tangled, impractical waves. Her eyes are a bright shade of ruby red, with cat like slitted pupils and white eyelashes. In case you haven't guessed, Silver has albinism - which means she has a complete absence of melanin, so no tan or freckles. She's tall and lithe, with some muscle tone.
She has high cheekbones and a cute button mode - also, dimples!!! But watch out, because that cute smile hides razor sharp fangs.

Personality:

Silver seems like a cute, sweet child, every emotion clearly showing. She’s an open book, and she’s so innocent and naive that many people find themselves wishing to protect her. However, she has a major dark side. She’s proud, and has a very short temper. She’s volatile, and unpredictable, with a tendency to bite people when they annoy her. Or even sometimes as a way of showing affection, even if it doesn’t seem very affectionate when her fangs break skin.

She’s quite easily tricked, due to her naivety, and actually has no clue about anything. Something as simple seeming as a handshake would really confuse her, as she has no idea at all about human customs. She can be very rude, either unknowingly, or just because she’s annoyed. She’s very selfish, and greedily hoards her cakes and sweets, which she loves.

Silver is slowly getting warier about immediately trusting everyone she meets, after a few bad experiences. She has great skill for causing pain to others, and she's honed this talent.


Silver doesn't have a clue about anything. The kid grew up alone, by herself in the woods, with no memories of who she was apart from a name (Scarlett Felis, a name she dislikes even hearing, much preferring to go by the alias she crafted for herself).

She has no understanding of concepts like "right" and "wrong". Silver doesn't know how to emphathise with another person, and it's almost impossible for her to think "How would ___ feel if I did this?" . When she kills people there's no true malice in it. She enjoys it, yes, but she doesn't understand the concept of someone dying, of that person just...Not being there anymore. She doesn't understand Loss, or Love.

She can't even put a name to her feelings for the people around her. She knows she enjoys their company, but feelings like romantic love are foreign to her (this could change though). She lives her whole life following her instinct, doing whatever she feels she has to - or whatever she thinks will be fun - and doesn't understand the consequences to her actions. She understands Loneliness better than most, and would do literally anything to avoid being lonely again.

History:
Silver's parents (and twin brother and younger sister) were murdered in front of her on a camping trip when she was merely nine. As she ran away she took a nasty knock on the head and lost her memories. So, for the next ten years, she just wandered, catching her own food in animal form like mountain lion. Her parents took her to the zoo a lot as a child, to train her ability - she has seen many animals, both those native to her homeland and those not.

And then she started eating people, not understanding how that was any different from killing a deer or squirrel. When law enforcement started sniffing around her forest, she fled, and some people, not knowing much of her nature, helped her get to Derika.
Party Control:
Nope

Other:
Has immense natural talent for art​
 
Name: Liam Barker

Age: 18

Gift Summary: Body-surface localized dimensional storage and retrieval

Appearance: Liam is 5’11, 170 pounds. He has short, messy brown hair, sharp blue eyes, and is solidly built. Wears black aether pants and a close-fitting aether shirt. Usually wears an easy smile.
Kaiba.Seto.full.714473.jpg

Personality: Easy-going and good natured, Liam takes life at his own pace, at times whimsical and impulsive. He used to be quite cheerful and outgoing, but after recent events he is slightly quieter and more cautious.

History: Liam was born to a to a normal mother and a Gifted father, gaining a younger brother a year later. Unknown to the rest of the family, Liam’s father was an ETG escapee, and had failed to cover his tracks perfectly. ETG orphaned Liam when he was only seven, both his mother and father dying as his father fought back using parts of his Gift he’d only discovered after he escaped. With a strong grudge against ETG, Liam waited until he grew old enough to run away from his foster home and find a hidden gathering of Gifted working to resist ETG.

At the City of the Gifted, Liam was reunited with his younger brother Jake, who’d been discovered as Gifted early on after his parents died, and taken into an ETG foster program. The younger brother had been running missions for ETG and was currently infiltrating the city. The city itself was on its last legs, about to fall due to poor management and an impending ETG raid. After barely convincing Jake to switch sides, the two escaped the city and traveled to Derika to recover.

Soon after entering the city, Liam joined the Dimensional faction alongside his brother and threw himself into fighting ETG. During a particularly reckless raid on an ETG base, he was captured and brutally tortured for information. Mutilated within an inch of his life, Liam was rescued in the nick of time and was eventually brought back to Brinkhaven to be restored to normal. Although perfectly physically health—not even a trace of a scar remaining—Liam finds he still isn’t healed.

Equipment: Wears aether pants and a close-fitting aether shirt, allowing Liam to channel his Gift through his clothing.

Party Control: Yes.


Name: Jake Barker

Age: 17

Appearance:
Jake has longish, stringy brown hair and dead eyes. His body is lean, almost wiry.

b5FFDPvBvv7F0arMByO6yAXmIpNziLLW9LarXdy77OjMVjWRYcESIfZLqDb1vh_G6g7Mri6R09rsbjNh23NgZ28nq8_P_GYW6Y4-cBUMN03oFCSybRwHFQGjnyPN_kp0rySPAzWV

Gift Summary: kinetic energy fueled teleportation

Personality: Initially extremely apathetic to the rights of others due to a culture of justified violence, Jake is slowly recovering some chill. Still, he’s too serious about things. Jokes are often lost on him, and his face is afflicted with a permanent deadpan. As an upside, no one can tell if he’s being sarcastic or not when he says certain things.

He is also not a particularly good conversationalist, so don’t expect much from him. Poor social skills abound.

History: Jake grew up in an ETG-funded orphanage, never being able to remember his parents or former life. He was told that his family was dead and had abandoned him. As he was discovered to be a useful Gifted early on, Jake was groomed to become a powerful asset to ETG operations in the future. He received grueling and unethical training without a say in the matter. The treatment had long-term negative effects on his developing psyche, and he ended up cold and largely unemotional. The divorce of his emotions from his decision-making allowed Jake to better resist the subtle conditioning meant to instill a sense of loyalty in ETG trainees.

Upon meeting his older brother Liam during a mission, coupled with the lingering doubts Jake already held about ETG, Jake was convinced to accompany Liam instead of continuing to serve ETG. He arrived at Derika with his brother and soon after joined the Dimensional faction.

Party Control: Yes

Current Equipment: Fire-resistant kevlar armor, 1 tanto, SCAR 17, 4 spare magazines, x16 timed C4 explosives.

Notes: These were my first OC's ever! Hence why the histories are nearly irredeemable.
 
Name: Rika ‘Scarlet’ (She thought Scarlet sounded cooler)

Age: 17

Gift Summary: Superspeed. Sort of.

Appearance:
yHurh4zJZYYDF4wYx8VxCNof_kJMZsdqX7ssHsXENfC6GRytoE8guLNFaM6eti3ORZPwbSt4Wkyokzpa29yMxWuo2rC8gMv9WGR9VdBXlzahHQUfhcz1DBLdD0Afl55W0TlQ95iy
Personality: Headstrong, determined, hasty, and stubborn. When Rika fails, she will continue doing the same thing until it works, or she can’t continue. Not the most perceptive person. Rike tries to be very upbeat, and not let much get her down. She doesn't always succeed.

History: Rika was raised by a single father, who was also the man that taught her the way of the sword. , who in turn tried his very hardest to be cool—wielding his blade to slay baddies and defeat evil. Pretending to be reluctant about it, he taught Rika the blade as well.

She grew up in utter admiration of her father, who raised her alone. From a young age, she came to utterly admire and idolize her father for his abilities, for he was a true master of the blade. Without the aid of a Gift—for Rika’s father was only a mortal man—he could cut down enemies from meters away using only a single swing. He was so precise that he could cut the clothes off an enemy, but leave the flesh beneath unharmed. He moved faster than the eye could see, able to be everywhere in a room at once.

If you haven’t realized yet, Rika’s father was definitely Gifted. After initially lying to a young Rika about his swordsmanship skills in order to look cooler, he couldn’t bring himself to tell her the truth. Naturally, he hid all news of Gifted from Rika. Whenever Rika would ask him the secret behind his impossible feats, he’d pat her head and tell her she wasn’t ready yet, that she needed to train harder first. Things only got worse when Rika started displaying blatantly impossible feats of speed as well. Consumed by the possibility of being outed and losing his cute daughter’s admiration, Rika’s father eventually couldn’t handle the stress and broke. Cryptically, he told Rika to travel alone to Derika, where she could learn the truth herself. Rika interpreted this as a warrior pilgrimage and set off eagerly to unlock the true depths of her abilities and finally surpass her father in skill!

Party Control: Nuh!

Other: Spent all of her money on a really cool sword she saw in a window display right inside the entrance of Brinkhaven. The store was a tourist trap, and the sword is mundane in all respects. It didn’t even come with a sheath.

Name: Ron Winston
Age: 19
Gift Summary: Knight of Justice
Gift Weaknesses and Limits: He can create a familiar that is able to do almost whatever he wants. The familiar, which he calls "Knight of Justice," can do everything he can do except speaking. This familiar is slightly better than Ron at everything. This Knight of Justice, however, can be vanquished with a few decent hits or by Ron's will. It lasts ten minutes, and needs a few hours before it can be summoned again. The Knight of Justice is dressed in full armor and has a sword.
Appearance: Ron is a pretty average and youthful-looking young man. He has brown hair and brown eyes. His body type is quite normal, a little chubby. His hair is often let down and trimmed infrequently. He doesn't wear very striking clothing.
Personality: Ron is a very righteous person, who believes that he is an ally of justice, hence the name "Knight of Justice." He considers himself a hero who vanquishes evil wherever he goes. However, he tends to judge people a lot or jump to conclusions. More often than not, he gets the wrong idea of who the "evildoer" is. He never kills people, just incapacitate or restrict. Ron takes pride in himself and his "duty". However, when it comes to having fun, Ron can unwind a bit. Otherwise, he's a pretty serious person.
History: Ron grew up in a normal American family. If anything, his parents were very strict. He was a pretty social child and always outgoing and fun-loving. However, he began to change a little bit when he first heard of comic books and superheroes. He wanted to be just like them, but his parents managed to convince him it was impossible. They told him that only special people could be heroes. They convince. However, he discovered that he did have a gift. Ron decided to ignore his parent's advice. He used his Knight of Justice discreetly. Although he wanted to, he refrained appearing in public and helping in the sidelines instead. Fortunately, his parents found out before he did anything too stupid. Although they didn't really mean it, they gave him an ultimatum. Give up on being a hero or leave their family, so Ron left. The only thing that gave him the courage to leave was the rumors of a place where Gifted could live freely.
Party Control: Yes.

Name: Yura Ho

Age: 18

Gift Summary: Explosive Candy/Candy-4

Appearance:
667ED067-C728-4EA2-9B68-F2615691D603.jpeg

Personality: Yura is carefree, laid back, and incredibly lazy. However, she can be very hardworking if there’s a motivator, such as a deadline. A fast learner, she can get hang of things pretty quickly when she puts her mind to it. While she’s amiable enough, but her frequent usage of innappropriate language, slang, and lack of social ettiquette can make interactions with her a bit uncomfortable. Due to her sheltered life, she’s very naive and can barely take care of herself.

History: Born as the only child to a rich and successful couple, Yura was pampered by her parents, and lived a very luxurious and comfortable life. Her family’s wealth meant that she could get just about anything she wanted. To top it all off, she was studious and hardworking, got along well with others, and had inherited most of her mother’s good looks. She was their pride, so even when she suddenly began to materialise candy out of thin air, they didn’t mind much. Although it was a gift, it seemed harmless enough.

As she grew older, her personality changed completely, resulting in the lazy procrastinator everyone knows and loves. Then came the bittersweet discovery of her gift’s true potential. After she was saltier than a pickle due to numerous losses in an online shooter, she threw several of her candies out of her room’s window and thought about blowing everything up. It worked. Several loud explosions rang out on the front lawn, followed by a shower of dirt. Her candy was somehow explosive, and had resulted in endless lectures about safety from her parents. When rumors of ETG reached her parents, they eventually decided to send her off to Derika, despite her initial refusal and reluctance.

Party Control: Yes

Other: She has a sweet tooth.

Name: Kugo Stark

Age: 17

Gift Summary: Pyrokinesis- his skin can make a substance that excites the energy around him when he tenses up and focuses on making the flame he can create a 'spark' which helps make an 'ignition'. Since the skin helps activate or excite the ionize molecules around him he can create the flame Though his skin stops producing the 'ignition' when he uses his flames so it starts wearing off. Though it may be strong it can be slow to activate leading him to be open to attacks, he also can hurt himself using the stronger flames if he doesn't know how to control them. His flames slowly go form a light red to a dark purple as he powers it up. Also if he tries to use stronger flames he won't be able to keep it on for a long time unlike if he uses weaker flames, For example he can keep up his light red flames for a while but only a few seconds for dark purple.


Appearance: He has black on one side and fades to white when he uses his gift. His eyes are a glowy yellow.
35eb1694fe9c0f06229d0223998e1b1b.jpg

Personality: Despite how he looks he actually is pretty outgoing, though like some people he does have a pretty short temper if things end up becoming dire he can become stress leading him to be like that. He does try to be kind but he does end up telling you the truth flat out. If he does get mad he can do irrational things.


History: He has a mom, dad, and a brother they all lived in a small house. his dad left him a few years ago since he became a criminal because the people he hung around. His dad had a more cold type personality and his mom was more outgoing which is where he got his personality from. His older brother helped train him while he was growing up and soon it might just pay off. His brother always wanted to be a hero but soon they found out he didn't have a gift and soon started to develop a hatred for Kugo soon instead of becoming a hero his brother thought of becoming a villain/criminal like his dad. Since heroes and criminals where being hunted he decided to leave and so he did leaving his mother and brother.

Party Control: No. Unless its important or needed

Do his flames stay around his body once ignited?

Can the substance produced be saved and used later or in other ways?

they stay where ever he ignited them for example if he ignited them on his hands or arms they stay there until he 'signals them off'. Yes and no, yes becuase the skins makes the substance and no because the substance wears off when he ignites the fire (sorry for late reply)

Alright then. Can you PM me the weaknesses and limits?
 
Name: Elizabeth "Liz" Workinghime

Age: 18

Gift Name: Eighth Day

Gift Summary: On the end on every Sunday, time stops for 24hrs for Liz. Liz is able to move around on these days, although she doesn't age in them. She can invite other's to spend the Eighth Day with her, and people can heal an injury faster here and get over a sickness faster here. She has not found a limit to how many people she can invite, though she suspects it is unlimited. You have to touch her to go to the Eighth Day with her, at midnight on a Sunday. She has no way to stop it, and no way to move the day to another time or extend the time to be longer. Inside the Eighth Day, there are no people or animals or tree's or plants. Only thing's that aren't alive and/or has been made by someone's gift exist there. There is no way to stay there, you do not need to be touching Liz to return to Midnight on Sunday. You appear wherever you are in the Eighth Day.

Appearance: Hazel eyes and Blonde hair. She is quite tall, and she is slightly chubby. She likes to wear fancy clothes, but nothing too impractical. Her hair reaches her lower back, and she likes to braid it.

History: She comes from a middle-class family, and she always looked up to hero's. She was a huge fan of the ETG until they started becoming shifty. She loves people who have Gifts and use them to help people, though she didn't have a gift until one night she wanted one really badly, and she got the Eighth Day. She doesn't think it's a great power until she invites others and such. She knows she can be a great hero with her Gift, but others do not see how. She decided on her 18th birthday, when she became an adult, to become a hero. Her parents support her, although weary, and send her to Derika. She loves to discover things and be free and curious, so they didn't think she would like ETG.

Party Control: Yes.

Also, I know she has a broken ability, sorry about that. She is a good person at heart so she won't go stealing for a whole day or anything bad unless for a very good reason. And I know what you're thinking, what if someone threatens her family or something? Well, to solve that I'm going to try and make a team of sorts, y'know, to help her out. If you really have a problem with this, though, I will change it. I don't truly wan't her to have such an ability, so I am okay with taking it down a notch. Thanks for understanding.
