Fantasy Visionary Panic [OOC and Characters]

Alright guys, there's only three people who have posted this round so I'm going to assume that the others are either too busy or would want to drop or something.

As the RP seems to be grinding to a halt would you guys want me to brute force move it on with three people, try to fish for new people, or give up.

Alright it's been awhile but the new post is up, most of the enemy's moveset has been revealed, you guys just need to hold out until reinforcements come. That's the bridge to the next arc (and a time skip!).

If you guys want to kill it...sorry, too bad. You'll get another chance later on, for now Chief Luden wants something from it...he's a bit sus after all. But don't worry, you guys will get the A for effort and A for not being dead yet award, you can get a lot of pizzas with that and maybe new teammates even.

Let's just say round 2 would be a harder fight with much more stakes.

I'll see about posting a new interest check, and tbh I only needed 3-4 people for this. Let me know if you want new people or think the current line up is fine.
(BOLD AND CAPS REMINDER TO PARTICIPATE IN THE POLL) ^^^^^^^^

Oh yeah I saw BuggaBoo mention they don't have comms, well, they're never getting comms because that level of wireless technology doesn't exist or at least not possible for wide distribution (think about how many people own cell phones in the 80s). The most advanced wireless thing in the setting is radio and maybe a 240p television and computers that function on punch cards.

Go back to shouting.

Bruh. The military still had radio walkies waaaaaay back then right? I mean they broadcast thru radio waves for the PA? Or am I missing something?

• Lugs around a LMG to give him additional suppression capabilities outside of his Visionary Ability.
• Standard issue sidearm.
• Collapsible baton. When he can pump enough electricity through it to kill Primordials, the increased range is preferable to a combat knife.
• Shaded goggles. Given how bright his ability use can get, it's practically a necessity for Remus to wear these if he wants to use Stormbringer at its full charge.

• Notoriously early riser despite going to bed at normal times. He often starts mornings with a run around his neighbourhood.
• A bit of a glutton and a good cook too. Despite that, he's prefers when other people cook for him! He isn't particularly picky, and he can handle anything from sweet to spicy to bitter.
• He also has a habit of carrying around some sort of snack at all times. Whether it's a trail mix, some chocolate, or something more filling like protein bars.
• Even without the use of his ability, Remus seems to be a magnet for static electricity. Getting a small shock from him isn't unusual. As such he's pretty much banned from being anywhere near sensitive electronics.
• Occasionally he'll sell off some electricity to the city's various power plants through Logistics. Given how much food he needs to consume vs. the amount of energy he can generate... it's pretty much a no-brainer.

Protective Ward: Yes


Eye Color: Turquoise
Ability Name: Patient Zero
Visionary Ability:

Patient Zero is name given to the ability to control all of the body's autonomous functions as well as the ability to alter the host's body chemistry. This ability is versatile, and allows for a variety of effects. Including:

- Enhanced Speed, Strength, Endurance, and Stamina
- Enhanced auditory, visual, and olfactory senses
- The ability to "close off" pain receptors
- Immunity to illness via forcing the body's cells to target the specific cells and eradicate them
- The ability to alter his age via constantly developing new cells to replace old or dead cells, maintaining youth and wellness
- Complete control of hormones, their release, their strength, and amount. Fuels most of the features mentioned above as well as the ability to instantly sleep or force himself to remain conscious. This can even force his heart to keep beating and heal outside of intensely severe damage.

Equipment:

- Medical First Aid Kit and Equipment
- Pistol Sidearm
- Rifle
- Combat Knife
- Lab Vials for Samples

Personality:

Dominic is a peaceful and caring sort, in of that he abhors violence and wishes for the best for all people. He studies medicine in hopes of maintaining the existence of those currently alive, as well as to improve the lives of those who are to come. Because of his past experiences, he despises the outside world and the ideas of poverty and ignorance.

General History:

Dominic spent many years of his life as a nomad. A drifter that barely managed to stay alive, even with his ability that he had a difficult time understanding. This all changed with the railroad. When he discovered it, or rather than beginnings of it, he saw a means of escaping his ignorance and mediocrity. Seizing the opportunity, he began learning, assisting on the construction as best he could. Thus began the journey of self improvement, and the hunger for knowledge.

After the completion of the railroad, he went to the newly established Misthart Tower. Over the years he engrained himself into the civilization, at first still remaining in the outskirts until the situation became more suitable for him. In time, Dominic became a worker within Misthart, becoming a member of the medical field where his research flourished. Through this study he was able much more effectively use his abilities through his understanding of the human body and medicine.

After many years at this, a newfound use for his skills, mind, and ability came about. He was requested, or was he just given the idea? Even he isn't really certain. However, he began studying and training for active duty so he could go out into the field and help in another way, while also continuing his own research. Because of the need to be more physically able, he determined it was time to commit the personal taboo he had established. Using his ability, Dominic reverted his body back to it's prime, with some minor enhancements, of course.

From here, who knows?

Miscellaneous Info:

Nothing now, maybe something later?

“Dangerous? Better than wasting my gift. They'll come even if I try to live peacefully.”

Appearance: A rather short male at 5'5, Remus hasn't grown a single inch in the last four years. His lean physique is similar to a runner's and he trains for endurance and stamina. He's got more than his fair share of scars from being out in the field, and he tends to have a somewhat dishevelled look to him. His hair is quite long, but also rather coarse and rough. The use of his abilities only makes it even wilder and a mess to take care of. Many combs have been lost trying to tame the mess, but he refuses to get it cut even if he'll tie it up at times.

His clothes tend to be on the plain and drab sort, often with at least a tear or two. He prefers if they cover a lot of skin, so even during the summer he can be found in sweaters or the like.

Name: Remus
Age: 19
Combat Experience: Four years.
Place of Birth: Mistol
Department Transfer History: Special Task Force for those four years. He does some contract work with Logistics at the power plants.
Protective Ward: Yes, although he's on his third. He feels pretty bad each time he needs to renew it.

Eye Color: Red
Ability Name: Stormbringer
Visionary Ability: Remus can call upon an immense amount of electricity, but it takes time for him to build up something befitting his ability's name. The gathered energy forms a shell around Remus and offers him some protection as arcs of electricity bat away projectiles, but he has to remain stationary to build up his charge. The crackling is quite loud and the bright blue arcs eye-catching, so he often becomes the target of Muduo in the vicinity. When charged up though, he can unleash arcs of lightning that jump from monster to monster. Primordial Muduo often burst from being super-heated, while Bestials are left smouldering and twitching.

Against creatures that require a more concentrated response, Remus carries a few rods made with a mix of metals. These function as both projectiles that he can launch as a makeshift railgun, and lightning rods once embedded within his target. They allow him to focus his electricity on a single target more easily and effectively, pushing the electricity deeper into large targets like Amalgams.

Equipment

• Given the role he tends to play during combat, Remus also lugs around a RPK to augment his abilities to suppress Muduo. It took him a while to be granted permission to carry it, and he treats it as a rather prized possession.
• Carries a Makarov as a sidearm.
• Collapsible baton. When he can pump enough electricity through it to kill Primordials, the increased range is preferable to a combat knife.
• Shaded goggles. Given how bright his ability use can get, it's practically a necessity for Remus to wear these if he wants to use Stormbringer at its full charge.

Personality: While Remus isn't the most outgoing young man, he's got a rather chipper and upbeat attitude. He'll poke around if he sees something wrong, and his inquisitive nature has led him down curious paths before. Hard to offend, he doesn't get riled up so he much as he rises up to challenges. A good natured sort of competitive, he's less interested in beating people and proving his superiority, so much as he just likes challenges.

He takes on a more serious air when it comes to dealing with the dangers that Muduo pose. His anger towards them has had time to simmer to something that's colder and more calculating. The sort that focuses the mind rather than making it go blank. He doesn't derive any sort of thrill or enjoyment from exterminating Muduo, but sees it as a task that must be done and done so properly.

General History: If Remus hadn't been lucky enough to awaken his Visionary powers, he likely would have died as a child. Not because he somehow used his untrained powers to drive back the Muduo's that had killed his parents, but because the flash and crackle of electricity made for a pretty good signal fire. Saved by a brave Sentinel willing to risk his life instead of letting a fellow Visionary die terribly, he quickly became a ward of the state in the aftermath of that incursion.

He wasn't provided more than the bare necessities, but Remus didn't mind. He had never grown up particularly well off and going hungry was a sensation Remus was used to. There wasn't much he could do back then though. He scrounged for scraps where he could, even stole when he thought he could get away from it. Now he had something he could actually focus on. There was more than just trying to survive from day to day. The Muduo had given him a sense of purpose even as they took away his old life.

It took some time before he actually managed to find any sort of work. Even with the Muduo lurking just beyond the mists, most people weren't willing to throw a child at the problem. Even if he was young enough to learn and train in various occupations, Remus was adamant about finding a position where he could use his abilities as a Visionary. What was the point in all the effort he had put into training if the results were just going to wind up gathering dust and fading away. With a dogged sort of determination though, he chased and chased his goal until someone finally took a look at what he could do and decided that it was best put towards exterminating Muduo.

That's how Remus ended up working for various Special Task Forces. Occasionally he is assigned to work with an outgoing STF, but for the most part he tends to be kept in reserve and on-call for Muduo sightings.
Miscellaneous Info:

• Notoriously early riser despite going to bed at normal times. He often starts mornings with a run around his neighbourhood.
• A bit of a glutton and a good cook too. Despite that, he's prefers when other people cook for him! He isn't particularly picky, and he can handle anything from sweet to spicy to bitter.

I reckon some downtime for the team would be nice. We could arrange for some collab documents for rapid back and forth between team members. Also we need some trophies in the warehouse, can't we get some muduo sourveniers?
