Gilzar · Jul 20, 2015

Name: Evan Lloyd

Age: 25

Gender: Male

Physical Appearance: A man with a very rough looking appearance. Evan stands at roughly 6'1, with a medium build. Due to his mix of heritage, his skin is of a darker asian color, due to his islander heritage. Because of this, his eyes are slightly slanted and brown in color. Face wise, Evan has a thinner, slightly squared face, with a moderately sized mouth and nose. Over this, he has a slight black goatee growing, with a thick shadow of facial hair growing over the rest of his face. Combined with his short and slightly unkept hair, this gives him a very rough and rather unkept appearance. On his right arm, Even bears a sleeve of tattoos that run down all the way to his forearm, each one with their own meaning, and all colored primarily black. Many are of tribal theme, and words dotted in tribal language.

For markings, Evan has a faded series of symbols and characters that climb up the left side of his neck. What's odd about them, is that they're transparent when he's not using energy for his powers, like a ghost of some sorts. When activating his powers, they begin to appear, and the further he goes into his powers the more solid they become.

Clothing: For casual days, outside of combat, Evan wears just a simple white T-shirt that reveals his sleeve of tattoos planted on his right arm and simple black pants, along with a pair of comfortable sneakers for R&R.

Combat wise, his outfit is still a simple design. The most notable part of it is the dark green trench coat that he wears with a lightweight kevlar combat vest over, complete with ammo pouches and a sheath for his gun and sword. On his lower body he wears urban combat camo-pants, which is basically dark grey and black camouflage, with basic black combat boots underneath.
Faction: Sanctum

Rank: Soldier
Power: Ectoplasm Control. An odd sounding power, but let's go into detail. Evan has control over a primitive form of Plasma called 'Ectoplasm', which contrary to popular belief is not some goop that ghosts produce. Instead, ectoplasm is a very simple form of Plasma that reacts in very unusual ways with the matter that surrounds it. Ectoplasm has the ability to physically manipulate objects, by building up its density and visibly becoming an anomaly of glowing clumpy-substance, which is white in color with a slight green tint to it, very odd looking indeed. There's another property to it though, when its density is low enough ectoplasm has the ability to travel through solid matter, like that of a ghost. So, to sum it up: When ectoplasm is large enough in density it becomes visible and is able to manipulate objects, doing things such as lifting, taking shapes, etc. Or when it's in a low enough density it can go through things such as walls.

Evan has another talent that makes him seem very ghost like with this power. Being able to manipulate the primitive plasma, Evan can walk through solid walls and floors as well as people. He's able to accomplish this by distributing ectoplasm throughout his body, merging it with all of his cells so that he may act like a ghost.

Weapons: There are two weapons that Evan wields, one is a gun, the other a sword.

His firearm is an unusual light machine gun. It's very light, and made of carbon fiber as well as the finest metal in all of it's parts, with a very large magazine for quick reloads. What's unusual about it though is that it has two barrels, vertically aligned. This allows for bullets to leave both muzzles at a very fast and accurate rate, with a nice kick of power due to the ergonomic design of the rifle. With a combat scope on the top, and a pistol grip with a nice stock on the back Evan has became a very good shot with this, in spite of it's rather small clip.

Evan's main weapon though that he can always fall back on, is a rather large sword that he has yet to name, and it's roughly the same length as he is, just a little shorter. It's made of black metal, with silver linings on the side of it, and it's double edged, shaped like a standard bastard sword. Normally such a sword would be very heavy and slow to wield, but Even can put ectoplasm into the blade and make it very light for him to wield.

Other Gear: Other than that, Evan carries the standard soldier gear. This includes things such as two grenades, one smoke grenade, standard rations, a cordless radio,

Gunship: 'The Crow', Evan's own gunship, made to be extremely maneuverable rather than focus on heavy weaponry. Primarily grey in color, it's pointed at the front and the tail end in shape and has three sets of wings on it, all located on the sides of the craft and none on the tail end. The first are located on the lower end of the sides, right near the top where the cockpit and are slanted down. Secondly, the next set of wings are located dead in the middle of the craft, on the upper side of the plane, slanted upwards. Then the final pair on near the end of the craft, located on the underside. They are slanted outward, and can be retracted for landings. Behind each of these wings is a set of thrusters, woven into the wing like feathers. Each wing can be moved and rotated so that the craft may make extremely sharp turns. There is also one other single wing, and it's located right at the top of the aircraft at the back to help maneuverability, and is the closest thing the gunship has to a tail.

Weapon wise, most are designed for fighting other aircraft rather than ground troops. At the front of the gunship, right in front of the cockpit is a set of dual machine guns, that fire standard plane rounds to tear up enemy aircraft accurately. Then, hidden behind the tail wing is another machine-gun used to tear up pursuing aircraft. Also, built into the sides of the aircraft are four shooting compartments that all fire plasma missiles.

The crow also has a hidden weapon on it, much like an actual crow. Built into the underside are retractable blades which extend out of the bottom of the craft diagonally, and heat up to a point that the blades turn a violent glowing orange color so that they may tear through any ship they pass over, these are called the Talons.
Personality: A very uncaring individual. To put it in the least, Evan is what many would call a slacker. Nearly everything he does he dreads, and he hates hard work unless it has some sort of big payout. Being very self centered, he isn't one to shy away from back talking to superiors and always vocalizes his opinions for the better or worse. Selfishness is what usually drives him, and if it wasn't for the harsh punishment of leaving the military as a CA he probably would have left the military years ago, not that he ever wanted to be with it beforehand.

Sarcasm his huge with him, and while he certainly isn't emotionless, most of the time you'll just get the same stern look from him. This is probably because Even is extremely easy to irritate, and whines about his situation he is in often. Things such as cussing, namecalling, and mocking is all common with him. Confidence wise he's very confident, he just tends to complain often. He does do things, he just tends to want them to be done his way. This is why he's not a knight yet, not because of his skill level but because of his personality. Greed also corrupts his mind, and though it may not control him it certainly influences many of his decisions.

He's not all bad though. Evan is actually a very intelligent man, though some label him a smart-ass, with a very good knowledge of both the factions of Sanctum and SNTS. This is due to his deep interest in history around him, and his favorite subject is actually history. Oh he could go on for hours and hours about history, especially about the city of Aquatica. Afterall Aquatica is his favorite city, and the one thing that he actually does enjoy is lecturing people on history. There are also moments where he does show compassion, as well as a caring for others, he just has to like the person first.

Backstory: Evan Lloyd was born on a chain of islands just North East of the continent of Lucia, the son of a security member and of a doctor. Shortly after his birth, his family moved to the city of Aquatica, which was currently stationed just off of the islands. Life, due to little poverty in the Sanctum, was by no means hard for Evan's family. The only bad thing about Evan's childhood was his habit of stealing things from his fellow students. That's about it though, no other highlights of childhood.

Believe it or not, this man actually was a high-school Teacher at one point. The idea of just lecturing students all day about stuff that may or may not be true, and getting paid for it actually appeased his mind. Of course it may have taken years of schooling that Evan may have just cheated his way through but...he knew everything he was teaching to a certain extent. As one may guess he was no golden teacher, he just wasn't a bad one either. He put in the minimal amount of effort that it takes not to get fired, and stuck with it. This kind of lifestyle was not satisfying for him, because he still wanted more. So he found many a different ways to skim off of the top, mainly smuggling.

In Sanctum, smuggling is a very big business. There's a wide variety of items are kept strictly for military use that so happen to be in the desires of the rich elite of Sanctum. Since no one suspects a teacher of smuggling, Evan composed a series of schemes in which he would smuggle goods through various school trips. A sick thing to do yes but the rewards were far too great to resist. He never got officially caught anyway, by the time it was all figured out it was already he was a CA and he was far too valuable to throw behind bars.

You see, Evan was found to be a CA at a rather unusual age. By the age of 24 on a field-trip gone wrong the security authorities found smuggled goods under the school vehicle. All fingers pointed to Evan, and within minutes he was in the back of a truck ready to get taken to jail where he would await the criminal justice system. In the back of the truck...thoughts started trailing in the back of his mind. Emotions started mixing in his core and eventually the tears started forming. Never in his life had he been so scarred, because smugglers are treated almost as bad as murderers in the Sanctum justice system. As the tears flowed down his face, he noticed a strange substance left over on his face. It looked like clumped up dust at first but it had a glow to it. The guards took notice of it too, and the truck was immediately re-routed to the nearest military base where his case took a complicated turn within just minutes.

After some complicated interrogation, when they finally figured out that he wasn't some SNTS spy an agreement was reached that all charges would be dropped if Evan 'agreed' to join the military. Reluctantly he agreed, and a year later he graduated from the Cilestia university where he became of soldier Rank.

Nexus Placater · Jul 23, 2015

Re-re-re-re-re-re-re-updated version.

Name: Daniel "Angel of Death" Skywrath

Age: 25

Gender: Male

Physical Appearance: Daniel is a man of two faces, one of the benevolent and kind leader and that of the deadly killer of hundreds. His black hair is always spiked and rough. His eyes are different with them being yellowish-green but he doesn't care. He is slightly taller than average, 6 foot 4 but he weighs slightly lighter than average. He has a longer face with an average nose and mouth, in shape and in size. He is clean shaven but he has moderately thick eyebrows that are golden despite his hair colour. When he is angry, the caring yellowy eyes change to the eyes of some other worldly demon. His power glyphs include a wing design on his back, done in black and two shapes near his wrists, one of a shining blade, done in silver and the other of an angel holding a shield, done in gold. He does have a non-power glyph tattoo on his chest, a handwritten message from a friend.

Clothing: When he is off duty, he likes to wear hoodies, gloves and covering objects, mainly because he likes the feeling of being warm. This is because he likes the warmth. Something his parents never really made him feel. Only his friends and his hired carers made him feel warm.

On duty, he wears long sleeved T-Shirts, mainly of the colours red, white, black or blue. He wears a inner shirt that is either red or white. He wears long cargo pants and tall black combat boots. He also wears his objectives headset and operation gloves along with his battle gear as he usually has some sort of plan. These look like a set of tinted sunglasses and gloves that have no palms but a few rings to place the fingers into. Wires run along the headset and along the fingers of the glove but the headset is connected to the gloves via a wireless network on a very secret frequency. He has a holster on his right leg for his pistol, two back holsters for his shotgun and assault rifle and his scabbard is on his left hip.
Faction: Sanctum

Rank: Knight
Power: Large black energy wings form on his back allowing him to fly and increases his overall speed. These don't flap tomake him fly but rather are there to show that he can fly. They cannot be destroyed as they would form back after fizzing slightly. A golden shield, kite shield made of a incredibly strong alloy involving some amount of gold, forms on left arm that absorbs all forms of energy, kinetic, electrical and heat and converts to attack power. It is not indestructible but rather really tough. Scientist at Sanctum say that his shield involves the law of energy conservation. This law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but rather transformed into another form of energy. You figure out the rest. His sword will flash with bright light every time it hits metal, acting like a flash bang, to everyone but him. He can use this once every few minutes.

Weapons: Being an ambush soldier, a soldier who attacks/defends against enemies who are trying to flank/sneak by/ re-position to get a better angle on the main force, he forces the enemy to engage him at short to medium range. He uses an assault rifle with a custom scope, extended magazines, carbon fibre body, stability stock and a muzzle break to pick off targets as they first appear. His shotgun which is modded with a barrel extension, a stability stock, three normal payload types, birdshot, slug and flachett, and three special payload types, net, sticky HE and twitch, a faster pump and loading clips is used for engagement at closer ranges along with his pistol that is modified with a long venting slide, a stability grip, a compact laser module, extended magazines with special ammunition, meteor, long/quick shot and fracture, and a compensator. His sword, 1m in length and a bluish silver colour, with a custom grip and etched crossbar of an angel, is light but is strong compared to most swords but creates a flash of light so bright when it strike metal that it acts like a flash-bang to everyone but him. On the blade is the words "sleep and rest". This is because he understands why SNTS soldiers fight so in his eyes, he is helping them to "sleep off the war". He doesn't use his sword too often but when enemies enter close quarters, he goes to work. He also carries a knife if he needs it but there has only been one time where he has had to resort to his knife. That was the time he killed saved his Knight's life.

Other Gear: Daniel has a few gadgets that are useful to him in combat along with some usual things including some concussion grenades, rations and smoke grenades. His gadgets are an arm mounted grappling hook, an adrenal pump for increased speed and a targeting and objectives headset and operation gloves to improve gun accuracy and maintain contact with his superiors.

Gunship: Daniel's ship is called "The Intervention". The overall shape of the ship is that of a blade, relatively thin and long but pointed at the front and flat but thin at the back. It is a long ship, five main cannons on either side and two facing both the front and the back. These are helped with the extra mounted machine guns at certain points down the ship. The Intervention is built to provide fire support to ground troops but it was not designed to absorb enemy fire or to be agile. Although it is not meant to be agile, it can still travel quite fast.

In flight, The Intervention acts like a VTOL in how it lands and travels. Large thrusters at the back and turn allowing for take off and landing, and for flight. In order to stabilise the craft, a thruster underneath the main body of the craft will fire. Besides being a gunship, it can act as a drop ship as it can carry a large load without much speed drop.
Personality: Being raised by a carers who treated him well, he has learnt how to be nice and kind, and this shows as he is always treating his allies and friends as part of his family. He however learnt how to express his anger when he lashed out at one of his friends by accident, it being more ferocious due to the large amount of pent up anger from his childhood. He has a tendency to bottle all the stress and anger that he feels until he cannot cope with it any more and releases it at someone. Luckily, most of the time, it is at the enemy but he cannot choose who he releases his anger onto. Besides this, he is one of the most caring of the group, mainly because he goes out of his way to keep his team alive and uninjured, even if it kills him.

In battle, his role is to defend one of the key-positions and he usually does it by exploiting his strength of short to medium range combat. Although most of the other knights believe that his ability is more of an offensive ability, they have grudging respect for keeping the enemy from blast them from behind. His efforts have won many battles but he is usually not rewarded because he is usually not the one who lands the last blow on the enemy leader. One of the sayings that he says a lot is, "History is written by the victors and those who land the final blow get all the glory, (Kill-stealing son-of-a-b****)."

Personality wise, Daniel is very well suited for Sentinel but he just doesn't have the right amount of power to be promoted. He is very logical and usually doesn't do things without thinking it through, unless one of his men are about to get hurt. Ambush soldiers require the ability to make good decisions before, during and after a firefight so thinking and personality isn't a problem.

His overall attitude is of a middle ranked student, he does well in his class and he has some good friends along with some acquaintances but he is usually not recognised for achievements. He doesn't mind this but he wishes that he will be able to show all the people who have turn him down that he is indeed, "The Honours Student".

Backstory: Daniel was bored most of his childhood, being raised in Cilestia as he was found with his power glyphs as a very young child. Besides the bullying and abuse of the weird eye and eyebrow colour, which he had learnt to deal with after it began to happen everyday, he was never really in trouble and he was always following the rules, so to say. He was bored because he had learnt how it was to live the best life ever but he wanted to do something to help his country. He realised that he was a CA after he running away from some bullies. He didn't realise it that he could fly until he was standing on one of the buildings. He wanted join the birds when he was little and he was surprised but glad that the two black wings on his back at the time could be created whenever he wanted. He got his shield a little time later, when he was being bullied. The shield formed when he was just about to get hit. Following the rules of the street, he exploited the bully's surprise to the golden kite shield and gave his a dislocated jaw. At the age of 20, he got the chance to serve his country when he was contacted by some of the professors of the Children of Aspera University. He was glad to learn how to properly use his wings and to use shield better. The defense force was his next stop, joining at the age of 21. He did incredibly well, even though he was still very new to the whole war thing. He was promoted at the age of 22 when he killed the enemy leader and saved his Knight in the process. He won the battle because he developed his flash ability during the fight. His previous leader, still thanks him for saving his life every few days.

As a child, he had one friend, a girl named Hannah. He never got to see her again after the age of 12 due Hannah's mother deciding to abandon Sanctum and join SNTS. The last letter that she wrote to him is tattooed to his chest, not because he liked her but because it reminds him of the first of his many friends. She did know that he was a CA due to the fact that she was just behind the bullies when he took off with his wings. (As Fizzes would also say, she has knack for finding CA'S.)

He now lives with his god-daughter, Jewel, who was the daughter of one of his best friends who had died when they were on a mission to protect Viria from attack. She is not the most annoying young girl in the world but she is certainly a close second in Daniel's book. Jewel is something else, long blonde hair that glitters in the sun and her blue eyes like... What the... She is just very cute but she is a heart less girl who will rob you blind.

He is currently positioned on Vexus and is maintaining the southern continent of Sanctum. There are rumours of SNTS attacking soon.

Other: His favourite city is Viria, because it is a place of knowledge and because it is on the ground and it is somewhere where he can land on solid ground.

He can withstand and likes hot weather but he really hates the cold. This kind of ties in with his energy absorption shield.

@Deltorian Nephran

I like the concept, but could you please expand it out a lot more, especially in the personality and backstory. This is a detailed roleplay after all. Also, I think you may want to read over the rules once more ;P

Obi-Wan Kenobi · Jul 25, 2015

Name: Conrí O'Connor

Age: 28

Gender: Male

Physical Appearance: Conrí O'Connor is a giant of a man; 220 cm with a thick, muscular body. His hair is a wild, red mess at all times, and he has a beard to match. He has a very square jaw, with bushy eyebrows. His face is very rough and wildsmanlike, which fits his temperament. His eyes are blood red, straight, and close together, with a rather predatory look to them. He has a long, hooked nose, rather like a hawk. One of his power tattoos is an increasingly larger tribal style image of wolves and humans fighting in a battle against other humans and wolves. It is positioned on his back, and has spread partially onto his left shoulder and arm. He also has a power tattoo on the back of his neck of wolves with their noses in the air.

Clothing: Conrí rarely dresses in non-military clothes. When off he wears camo pants, a tank top, combat boots, and his ubiquitous gauntlets. When on duty he adds a camo shirt, a reinforced black trench coat, a bulletproof vest underneath, and a HUD eyepiece.
Faction: SNTS

Rank: Knight
Power: The ability to take the shape of a wolf. When he does this, his current mass becomes the wolf's size and mass, and anything he is carrying adds to this. Also has the ability to enter a 'battle trance' where he enters a form of trance where he loses control of his body and hands control to his instincts, which fight many times better than he ever could. However, in this trance he loses the ability to control his body at all, only barely able to distinguish between friend and foe, and being unable to communicate. He also has a supernatural sense of smell that he uses to detect enemies, recognise people from far away or out of sight, smell poison, and many things besides. Finally, he can use his sword to project an spectral pack of wolves that follow his actions, such as when he guards they gather around him, and when he charges, they pounce forward at the enemies.

Weapons: Longsword with a grey aura. It has a large hilt, and is 130 cm long with a wide blade. A revolver with a caliber of .800 and with a barrel 60 cm long, which he sometimes uses as a club when in close combat along with his sword.

Other Gear: Power gauntlets, which are permanently attached to his arms. They hook into his arms and cover his lower arms and hands, enhancing his muscle strength, allowing him to strike harder and faster.

Gunship: 'The Runner' is an ultrafast strike ship with only very light weaponry. It is a rather tiny ship compared to other CA's gunships, but it compensates by being uncatchable by anything but the latest interceptors. Its weapons are only two small automated gun turrets armed with a small machinegun each. Conrí uses it to transport small numbers of troops and himself behind enemy lines, sometimes landing to disperse troops, sometimes flying extremely low and having the troops jump out, and sometimes flying higher up and having the troops jump out with quick-chutes.
Personality: Conrí is sometimes considered the perfect soldier. He follows orders with little question, as long as they come from a superior. Combat is a challenge to him, and one he somewhat enjoys. As such he will do what he can to fight the enemy, and won't stop doing so until he or they are dead. His faith in the SNTS is unshakable, but this faith is also blind. He follows orders blindly, follows ideals blindly, and sometimes kills blindly. He instills discipline in those around him, but he sometimes lacks it himself. He is one of those people who, no matter what emotion they have, show none of it. Because of this he has something of a reputation as a scary, cold killer who is basically a robot.

This reputation couldn't be further from the truth. When he is alone or with his friends or girlfriend, he lets the flood gates open and experiences all of the emotions he had locked up when people were around. If he wasn't pretending to be so stern, he would be a very caring and gentle person, not actually wanting to kill anyone. However, he feels pressured to conform to what people expect of him, and the more he acts like it, the more he is expected to act that way; something he finds difficult to deal with.

He has very few friends, and they are the only ones who know who he really is. They'd never tell anyone, though. The one thing true about his act is his faith in the SNTS, as he believes strongly in a sense of community being beneficial. He cares deeply for his siblings, but they don't know it. He is often overprotective of the people he cares for.

Backstory: Conrí was born into a military family in Duval. His mother and father were both soldiers, and his two brothers followed them. He found himself less militarily inclined, but hid it. When it became known that he was a CA, the pressure to join the military when he grew up became even greater. He was regarded as a star in school, due to his family and his own pretended attitude, somewhat increased by his status as a CA. He did not get exposed to much propaganda when he was young, being too busy with school and being trained along with his brothers to become excellent soldiers. Instead he found that he legitimately enjoyed the SNTS and its way of living, as he found sticking together and supporting others very important in his life.

This was because it was one of the things that helped him to keep up the act, being supported by a friend who understood him, Hannah. Yes the same Hannah from Daniel's backstory, and yes I have his player's permission. She understood what he felt when he felt alienated and alone, as she had recently been part of a family that had defected from the Sanctum. Nobody trusted her as much as they trusted others yet, though. They soon began dating and now they are officially in a relationship, though it is not yet a marriage. She also knows about his true personality. The fact that it is public knowledge that Conrí has a girlfriend confuses those who know him without knowing the secret. How can he have time for a girlfriend when he's so devoted to fighting, they ask. He doesn't tell them, for obvious reasons.

When he joined the military, he did it for two reasons; to keep up the pretense of what was expected of him, and to protect everything that he loved in life. He quickly proved himself a hyper-competent swordsman due to his parent's intense training and a large measure of natural skill, quickly getting promoted to Knight. One of the main reasons he hasn't been promoted further is that he is not very competent in terms of strategy, instead preferring to throw himself in. His military service has put a little strain on the relationship between Hannah and Conrí as they can't see each other as often, but they are still devoted to each other. Recently Conrí has been studying military strategy books and working his hardest to become a Sentinel so he can get more downtime to see Hannah.

Other: His favourite city is his hometown, Duval, as it reminds him of his childhood and why he fights; to protect the SNTS and its ideals, as well as to protect his loved ones.

Sorry for the wait! But accepted! Thank you for making the changes when I asked Deltorian, and I also appreciate how accurate to the cultures you guys's CS's were with both backstory and personality!

Hibiscus · Jul 27, 2015

DONE!

Name: Levi Wilhelm

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Physical Appearance: Levi stands at 5 feet 5 inches or 167 centimeters, tiny compared to many of the goliath CA's. Despite his size, he doesn't fault in any muscle; Levi's body entirely toned, little fat anywhere to slow him down. The small stature allowing him to remain light even if his body is layered with muscle, even if it's not large it's dense. The topping of Levi is a long, usually braided or tailed by some female, jungle of white hair. It is not blonde or light, this is a pure, snow white hair. Not only is it of odd color, it is also unusually soft. Levi's facial features continue to cause trouble with validating his age, as they are befitting of someone younger. The man's facial features are small, giving more room for his large and gentle eyes. The eyes are the defining feature of Levi, as they are devoid of any color in their base form and almost make him look blind. All of these features make him look small, soft, and often sheltered.

Underneath Levi's armor and clothes is his glyph, only one on his body as of now. Covering his entire back is a triangle, the three corners situated with one at left shoulder, right shoulder, and the small of his back. At each corner is a circle, the circle with a line in the middle of it. The circle on the right shoulder gives off an appearance as an eyelid, as the line has opened a third of the way to reveal the actual eye. Nothing else can be determined, as the glyph isn't complete. ((Will update as the glyph grows)).

Clothing: Whether it be on base, in or out of combat, Levi is always in his armor. The armor is completely black, the only break in the color being white and orange stripes on the wrist, legs, and chest pieces of armor. It is equipped with a belt to holster any equipment, a strap across his chest and back for his two pistols and HSASR, and the sheathe for his swords. Levi doesn't own anything else in his closet, only extra pieces of armor and flight suits.
Faction: SNTS

Rank: Soldier
Power: Levi holds the power to use his eyes to see different variations of sight through his right eye so far. As of this moment Levi can see normally, thermal, night vision, and x-ray. Though his sight wouldn't be impressive at just that, his eyes can see as far as possible; which is 3.1 miles if Oceana is the same size as Earth because that's when the Earth begins to curve, in 20/20 vision. That is as far as Levi's powers have manifested themselves so far.

Weapons: Levi uses an HSASR or Heavy Special Application Scoped Rifle, basically a rifle with a cannon round. The weapon is thirty pounds base, but with Levi's scope, stock, grip, tripod, and larger rifle assembly and barrel; it weighs upwards of forty five pounds. The rifle itself has an automating barrel, allowing it to adjust what caliber it shoots, but Levi prefers to leave nothing to fate; which is why he uses .50 for fighting non-CA's and .950 against CA's. The large weapon caliber provides a 38,000 lb-f, simply it feels like getting hit by a car traveling at 25 miles per hour. Even CA's have trouble blocking the rounds completely, as their size, velocity, and strength are huge. But Levi can only carry so many to battle, as they aren't extensively made and not many reserved for just a Soldier. Levi also carries two small caliber pistols, keeping one in a holster behind his head for easy access if he's told to put his hand on his head and the other on the small of his back for if he's told to put his hands behind his back.

As for the more known weapons of a CA, Levi uses two 27 inch tanto swords. Sadly with his powers Levi holds no way to expand them with the swords yet, but he is well versed in combat with them. With these weapons Levi tends to be far enough away where you won't see him or close enough where you'll never have time to realize it til it's too late.

Other Gear: Levi carries a few smoke grenades, rations, and a few knives for throwing or stealthy kills.

Gunship: The gunship's name is "Theia", a gunship built on reconnaissance and support. The guns in this ship are meant to turn tides of battle, but not fight other gunships. Artillery strikes are available, be it bombs, smoke, concussive, or gas blasts; the ship can do it all. Single targets, buildings, land vehicles, water vehicles, or smaller planes can be taken out with quick strikes of the single cannon. It is almost a railgun, super heating the round before firing accurate shots to main organs or engines of the target.
Personality: Being as Ocular powers are Levi's namestate, it's no surprise his personality has come to reflect this as well. Observant is the best way to describe Levi, he is always watching, deciphering, monitoring, and surveying everything around him. Levi collects information, using it to decide his movements and his actions at every moment; always making sure to choose the best option even if it means going against moral, ethnics, or protocol to complete the objective.

Course this is just during battle, on base or off duty Levi is a slightly changed person. Out of battle he is relaxed, still always viewing the works around him, not acting on anything unless he has to. While this can be seen as laziness, it's only because he is trained not to socialize unless called upon or get in anyone's way.

One thing that doesn't change in between combat and time off is Levi's expression, almost always reserving his voice. Levi can watch everything around him, make inferences, opinions, judgement, and a plan, but whether he chooses to share it is up to debate. It's not that Levi doesn't enjoy speaking, but his youth has made him appreciate the subtly of a man with little words.

All in all Levi is aware and alert of everything around him, in and out of combat. He is reserved, for actions in a sense of always planning it out and his voice of always keeping it hidden. And lastly Levi isn't lazy, even if he comes off as it, but instead he's just conservative of energy and effort.

Backstory: A military lifestyle offers little fun for a young child, but spending a childhood with four brothers immediately turns the boring of days into enjoyable experiences. This was what Levi thought his life would be, when looking back, but his brothers were just as serious as his father and mother. The household had taken everything from the SNTS into account and molded the family to reflect this.

More in line with the backstory though; Levi was born to a family of four siblings and two parents, an average life. The SNTS bolstered military strength, and families bragged of how many and how far their children were in the military. Levi was the last of the siblings, each one only being a year apart from one another, and it was immediate the difference between him and his brothers.

Levi's brothers came out strong, large, and immediately took to the military lifestyle. Strong names for soon-to-be strong men: Hunter, the oldest. William and Wilhelm the middle twins, and Cain the second youngest. All four above six feet tall, weighing two hundred pounds or more, and ultimately becoming warriors that any officers could be proud of.

Levi, on the other hand, was weak and frail. His features were never intimidating, eyes always carrying fear instead of fight, and body small throughout his growth. They were disappointed, not only in his body and mind, but his personality. They believed him too imaginative, carrying on and on of not being able to see what they say. Ana and Lex thought he was truly never going to be a son to be proud of, but something was happening to Levi that would create a new change in the family.

When Levi talked of not being able to see, it was the powers manifesting in him from birth. X-ray, thermal, and night vision the only thing he saw from the moment he could. It scared him, seeing the bones of friends and family, watching the world change to just heat signatures, and finally seeing in the dark that left him endless nights of wondering what was truly wrong with him.

It was the talk of this problem, not a power yet, that his parents finally decided he was nothing to show off or speak of. When neighbors came over, Levi was to speak only when talked to, watch the actions of proper people, and learn how to act properly. Almost always Levi's eyes were brimmed with tears, not understanding why he was ostracized for something he couldn't control.

The only relief Levi had was Hunter, his older brother and role model. Hunter was a great soldier, but he lost the attitude when he returned home. A great big softie who would spend hours on end telling Levi what the world looked like. He didn't understand why Levi was saying he couldn't see, but he realized it far too late.

Someone finally took heed of Levi's talent, and recognized it as a power. Even though the days the military wanted to take Levi away to train at Cybris was the same time his brothers couldn't say goodbye, his parents were more then happy to oblige at the thought of being proud of Levi. So, Levi left without saying goodbye to Cain, Wilhelm, William, and most importantly; Hunter.

Without his outlet of happiness, Levi reverted back to his teachings from his parents. He attempts to use all of the military lessons to finally make his parents happy, and hopefully find a way to see his older brother again. Until then Levi has always found a role model to grip onto and follow, but stayed weary of others.

Other: Favorite city is Cybris, where Levi finally saw the world through normal eyes for the first time.

Gilzar · Aug 2, 2015

Name: Blair Augustine

Age: 20

Gender: Female

Physical Appearance: An appearance that reflects her individual pride, as well as outer beauty. Blair sadly doesn't look that intimidating, seeming fairly small 5'7 with a light muscular build, and fair skin. Right away the most notable feature of hers is her thick long orange hair that she often just ties into a simple pony tail, with bangs parting around her face rather than straight over. Another noticeable feature is her large blue eyes that compliment her diamond shaped face, and her rather small mouth and nose. Scar wise, she has one small scar from a knife wound that travels down the left side of her lip and travels down nearly to the to the start of her jawline, due to a knife wound from combat.

Her marking is a strange one as well. It takes the shape of a black and neon green Yin and Yang symbol on the back of her left shoulder, surrounded by a system of black lines that take up the left side of her back and travel down in a perfectly straight line to her waistline.

Clothing: Blair, aside from most knowledge, actually has a life outside of the combat zone or medical facilities. Generally when on R&R or just her time off she typically tends to wear a black long sleeve shirt complimented by simple grey pants, and then usually simple shoes such as sandals. Then she wears a Indego Jacket, also known as a jean jacket over this. Why the simple outfit? Well, in her favorite city of Duval the temperature can shift from hot to cold in just hours due to it's geographic location.

When on the battlefield, her uniform isn't exactly so simple. Under it, it's composed simply of a black, short sleeve combat shirt with black pants and combat boots. It grows more complex though, as she wears a tan combat armor pad on her left shoulder, along with a chest piece that covers the upper portions of her chest as well as her back but cuts off right under the chest region, allowing for mobility while still protecting the vital organs. On her forehead, she has a pair of pilot's goggles that she can use for both nightvision and for blast protection. Then she wears a shooter sleeve (A sleeve not attached to the shirt over her left arm, and on the sides of it are medical syringes filled with special fluids for medical usage. On her hands she also wears brown fingerless gloves, and to finish off her outfit she wears a red scarf around her neck and keeps a white sash around her belt, to help keep dust out and to use as a last minute medical tool.
Faction: SNTS

Rank: Soldier
Power: Ying&Yang. Blair has the power to wield two polar opposite powers, and use them for her advantage. These are the powers of the Yin and Yang, being able to heal or dish out damage. To go more into it specifically, she has the power to wield a strange glowing Aura that she can use to either heal herself or her comrades, or smite her enemy. This aura takes two appearences: It's either a light neon green, which is used for healing, or it's pitch black, which is used for offensive purposes.

What Blair refers to as Ying, does a miracle job at healing wounds. Somehow, the atomic makeup of her powers are able to speed up the healing process of the body significantly, healing minor injuries in just seconds and working wonders on extremely lethal injuries. That being said though, such an ability certainly isn't cheap on the energy reserves. As Blair has figured out, the more serious the wound, the more serious the cost. This may be due to using more energy to advance the healing process on cells, as it's hypothesized that her powers simply make cells go into overload work and perform miracles. So, things such as cuts can just be healed away with little energy, while a bullet wound is going to consume much more energy, and a major injury across the body such as a horrific fall or crash...that could take up an entire energy reserve.

Now as you may have guessed Yang is the offensive side of this. All forms of medicine have an overdose that can be lethal, and Blair's healing powers are no exception. If she focuses enough energy in a concentrated amount she can over-do the healing process, causing cells to explode rather than do work extremely fast. This causes gashing wounds to appear whenever contact is made, sometimes violently exploding if direct contact is made, other times just simply scraping away the skin. It depends on the contact more or less. This isn't exactly cheap either, and as of right now all Blair can do is simply form the Aura around her hand and use it as an offensive melee tool. Such actions though drain energy very quickly.

Weapons: Blair caries three weapons on her whenever she is in the combat field. First, and probably her favorite gun is her revolver. Not just a simple revolver, this one is up to date with the times, being built with a tough black metal and in a boxy shape, with a longer barrel and six shots this revolver is perfect for both up close and medium range.

Secondly, she wields a broom-handle pump-action shotgun, fit with a light stock on it for mobility. Why pump action you may ask? Well, pump actions of this age prove to be the most reliable and accurate, and various shells and rounds can be easily loaded into them unlike semi or auto shotguns. Furthermore, Blair is all about accuracy and power, and with the longer barrel on her shotgun she can accomplish both.

And her final and most important weapon is her staff-sword. It's as the name describes, a sword on top of a small staff, more specifically it looks like a straight katana on top of a small staff. The staff-sword has it's perks with its range and speed, but it heavily lacks in extremely close quarters. This is why it's made of thick carbon fiber, and edged with the finest metal so that when that situation comes around Blair will be completely prepared.

Other Gear: Blair carries on her standard medic gear, including some soldier gear.

Gunship: (I'll be updating this later...) A very plain and stock-looking gunship compared to many others. Blair's gunship is long and narrow, with two large protruding protruding wings that make up the body. A large engine makes up the back, with plenty of boosters to keep it up to standard speed. Built into the sides are standard proton missiles, and a precision gatling gun that's useful for gunning down targets. To sum it all up, this gunship flashes the colors of the SNTS and is the perfect combination of speed and power, issued to the standard pilot.
Personality: Truly a personality that reflects the spirit of her nation, Blair is a woman filled with pride and of an anxiousness to please. Blair is the type of girl that is fully confident in her abilities...wether it be for the greater good or bad. Quite truthfully she believes that there is no task that the SNTS could not handle, and while she is modest she doesn't back down from a challenge easily. Often times to be frank, she misjudges opponents just merely by their actions, and her confidence gets the best of her. If you didn't catch this already, she's also very much a nationalist, believing firmly in the cause of the SNTS like many who are under their rule. Rather than having many acquaintances Blair prefers to have fewer yet strong relationships between her friends and family like many in the SNTS. All that Blair really has ever wanted to do was show her friends and family just how much she could accomplish, and all of the glory she could gain. Many call her a glory hound, and they're not too far off. Many things Blair does is just to impress her superiors as well as her comrades so that she may get the attention for it.

Because of this, Blair is often a very serious woman when it comes to just about everything. She doesn't joke around much, and most things are strictly to business. This being said she also has a reputation for her pure stubbornness and willingness to go the distance for her comrades. There also isn't a way to directly state how kind or mean she is, other than just stating that she treats people the way they want to be treated. If people are nice to her she'll be nice back, if they're mean...well she has no problem giving back. One final note...she also likes her hair very much. When she's bored, she'll start fidgeting with it using her fingers, which is better than biting on it which she used to do. Plus, incase you got the vibe that she's a tomboy, she isn't. Very lady-like is Blair, and she does get a fascination out things. Specifically the human body...which suits her power quite well as a medic.

Backstory: Blair was born into the very proud Augustine family, which is a family of known warriors down in the Duval city. In the Augustine family, they don't work factories. They are very much nationalist, and very proud of their own family banner which they all hang down from the sides of their homes. So when Blair was born, her fate was already decided for her, as every family member is a soldier. That's the way it is, that's the way it always will be. Though much to her families disappointment, instead of being a boy she was a girl. Sexism still is very much a problem in the SNTS, and while Woman are allowed into the armed forces many do face sexism, unlike in Sanctum. Growing up, Blair was determined not to fall a victim to the negativity and become a better soldier than all of her male comrades surrounding. She certainly didn't hate men, and was by no means a feminist. Simply to put it, she just always felt she had to prove herself.

When voluntary enlistment came, Blair's life would change forever. Her two brothers, Erin and Ben would parish in one of the sanctums most recent offensives. The burden she felt was too much for her to bear, brought to tears by the significant loss. Her comrades and superiors felt pity for her, and all gave her their grievances yet...they noticed something. Blair was emulating a glowing green aura. A rather odd amount of praise was given to her right away, and she was sent to the city of Cybris for advanced training right away.

Another few years of training passed, and within days of her final graduation Blair saw combat. Something that took a turn for the worse as her squad performed poorly on the combat field, and while none of them died Blair took a knife wound near her lip which gave her the scar on her face to this day. There's a reason why she's not a knight yet, and it's mainly because her superiors want her to stay a soldier until her powers advance as she's an extremely capable field medic.

Other: Nothing!

Second character.

Name: Clarissa Hertier

Age: 24

Gender: Female

Physical Appearance: Clarissa is just an average girl, long brown hair, hazel eyes that are medium in size and have a lemon shape, slim face, average nose and small mouth. Her overall size is a bit small, 5 ft 8, but she is still relatively slim, her hips are a bit large. She is quite fit but this usually attracts the wrong crowd,mainly due to likeable figure. She however is usually not seen around for longer than a few minutes.

Her markings include a small crossed out music note on her arms and a medium sized mark of a banshee on her back. She does have a tattoo of an elephant but that was just for fun.

Clothing: She is usually wearing casual and hooded clothing, for both on and off duty, you will see later. Besides that she does like the colour red.
Faction: Sanctum

Rank: Soldier
Power: She has the power to silence anything. This could be the floor beneath her feet so they don't make a noise, to silence the death gurgle of a guard and the slump of their body or to remove a CA's power for a short while. When she walks, she is usually so quite that she could literally stay in a room and have everyone forget about her. Her silence ability on CA's however will allow all of their skills but not their abilities as the markings no longer listen to the wielders. She however is completely drained when she uses it. She also generally can hear better.

Weapons: Her load out includes a silenced pistol and her favourite weapons, hooked hidden blades on her arms that can be fired out but is not great as a ranged weapon. She is very trained in CQC but mostly in trips and grapples due to her swords/hidden blades and her need to GTFO after completing her objective.

Other Gear: As escape is just as important as the entry, she has a modified cloaking rig and a couple of disguises. She also has a few fake ID's to get around without getting caught.

Gunship: The Chameleon is a ship designed to get to a location fast but get the hell out of there faster. Like Clarissa's own cloaking rig, the ship also has one and it is much bigger.

Because speed is imperative for this ship, it is very small and only the basics are in place so that there is more room for the massive engines and to make it lighter.
Personality: Clarissa is a quiet girl, mainly due to her childhood and is very shy, also due to her childhood. Although likeable, she doesn't have very many friends. She could stay in a room all day and no one would notice her, until she moves. This usually means that she normally keeps her problems to herself and intensify the already existing problems. However, she is a different story regarding anger. She is usually the one who breaks peoples noses and dislocates shoulders over a rude remark. This is mainly due to a weird personality issue that is troubling her, known as the "Silent B****" syndrome.

Clarissa is a very hard worker as she is usually very careful, except when annoyed at Sanctum. She is focused and makes logical decisions when on the job. Because she is quiet, she usually has great ideas but no one but herself follows them.

In general, Clarissa is very hard working but shy and introverted. However, if she is annoyed while at Sanctum, she would probably will kill you, because revenge is a dish best served with the targets head as a garnish.

Backstory: Clarissa lived with her mother for most of her life. Her mother kept her isolated mainly due to the need to keep her children away from the war. Being naturally quiet helped in making who she is today. She had a elder sister who had died from an SNTS attack and it made sense that her mother wanted to protect her. When she became the right age though, Clarissa joined the army due to need to "be brave". It was a secret that she liked to see what the other faction so she joined as an infiltrator so she could experience life in SNTS. Her mother was surprised when she found Clarissa with her bags packed sneaking out of the house but after a good talk, she was still glad that her daughter had joined to help the country they loved.

Clarissa learnt of her powers right after her first mission. The mission she was on turned south and many of her contacts were dead. When a CA arrived to kill her, she was overwhelmed by fear and screamed. Along with almost deafening the CA, the markings on his arms now were now covered with mute symbols. The weapons they were carrying disappeared and with that, she escaped. Arriving back home she was taught how to control her abilities but she still has a lot to learn. Her being a CA was not good for her already very timid and shy nature as she was now very much an outcast. She didn't let that bother her after a friendly CA gave her good advice about these types of things. "People will see you differently but that is great. You are different, but you strive for the same goal. Unless you know that it is a insult, be glad that you are different and rare."

She works as a espionage agent who is currently shadowing well known CA's of SNTS, taking them out of they become too dangerous too Sanctum. Besides the perk of being able to see other countries, Clarissa loves the job itself. She is currently following a group of CA's that are heading to Sanctum... Our so she thinks.

Other: Her favourite city is actually Duvul, even thought she is aligned with Sanctum.

She has a crush on someone, her "Senpai". Will reveal this person later.

Gilzar · Aug 5, 2015

@Deltorian Nephran Accepted, but please expand out the backstory a bit when you get time. We need to keep CS's a little long just because I want this to remain a detailed roleplay! Also, if I read this correctly your girl is an infiltrator? Make sure you specify this a little more!

Vespertide · Aug 5, 2015

Name: Raven (No surname)

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Physical Appearance: Long ginger-red hair that wavy, usually braided into one long braid. She has her own power markings on her back and shoulders, which are neon blue and look like concentric circles of varying sizes. Sometimes they glow in the dark, but not enough to be useful, except when an enemy is trying to locate her. For this reason, Raven has a special jacket that is thick enough to cover them up. She's pale and covered in freckles. Hazel eyes, a runners build.

Clothing: She always wears her thick jacket, which is a light gray. She wears jeans and beat-up combat boots. She also has a necklace that's a silver gear that she never takes off.
Faction: Sanctum

Rank: Soldier
Power: Raven calls it flow. Imagine a strand of color, tangible as a stone. This color strand can be any mix of colors and as thin as thread or as thick as a tree trunk. The strength of the cord comes from Raven herself, and as long as she is touching it, it will hold large amounts of weight. If she lets go, even for a second, it floats away. If anyone or anything touches it, it turns to dust.

The problem with her flow is that if it touches anyone else, it burns like acid. And so if it touches dry wood, for example, it burns the wood, causing a fire. Only she is immune to its effects.

Weapons: Two cylinders, which she pushes flows through to make whips. She also carries two knives in her boots, hidden well. If necessary, the blades of the knives can be "charged" with flow energy, and have the same effect as the flow.

Gunship: A streamline vehicle, with special cannons that can shoot Raven's flows into wide whips that can grapple other vessels, yanking them out of the sky. Also has guns and other weapons that are standard for a gunship.
Personality: Raven is a gentle and kind soul, preferring to slip into the shadows rather than lead the pack. Because of this, she often comes out awkward and no one takes her seriously. The Sanctum recognized this; they trained her even harder, trying to take away the awkwardness and her gentle nature. She ended up with incredible fighting skills and even more awkwardness than before when not fighting a hostile. She's resourceful, had to be when she was surviving in the streets of Viria. Raven also has a amazing memory, and she remembers almost everything. However, this can become a problem because Raven has a tendency to over-analyze things, especially little details that others would think as minuscule. Growing up in Viria gave her a love of machines and mechanical things, and so to relieve stress she'll work on gunships, airships, guns, any mechanical thing she can find. Raven's clever and flexible, and because of her Sanctum training is slowly getting rid of her awkward nature.

Backstory: Raven grew up in the factories of Viria, working in labor factories to build gunships and other weaponry for the war. She and the other children became good friends, and often stood up for one another in the harsh factory environment. The leaders picked on the smallest most often, and Raven was pretty all through growing up. She has no memory of her parents or family, only the brothers and sisters at the factory.

One day, when Raven was seven years old, she was working in the factory, a friend of hers, same age, called Scotty was getting severely beaten for misplacing a gear. Though the bigger boys tried to stop it, they were told to maintain their post or risk getting thrown to the streets. Most of the older kids had families that they supported with their job, and so didn't get involved.

But the more Raven watched, the more angrier she got. Gordon, the man behind the beatings, was hitting Scotty with a large wooden stick, again and again and again. Raven remembers cringing at every slap of the wood, every time Scotty cried out. Though she was afraid of her own punishment, Raven couldn't take it any longer, her anger boiling over.

She left her post, running towards Gordon. She had no weapon, and really didn't stand a chance. Gordon picked her up and threw her into a wall. As she collided with the wall, something in her snapped, and she stood up. Her back burned, but not from the wall. Gordon came towards her, and this time, when Raven punched, a silvery flow lined the trail of her fist. Raven held the end of it, and snapped the whip at Gordon's eyes. Soon security rushed the place, and Raven and Scotty rushed out into the street.

Later, they found Raven. The Sanctum always found CA's. Before she was taken away, Scotty gave her the silver gear he had taken, telling her to come back someday, when the war was over.

Raven was taken to Cilestia, where she was trained to fight and become a soldier. Raven wears the gear on a chain, remembering her promise.

She designed her gunship, and was sent into the battlefield, hating every moment of it. But she feared the Sanctum's punishment, and her fear was far greater than her hate of war.

Raven hopes that one day the war will be over, and she'll be able to go home. This is her motivation for fighting.

Other: When she uses her powers, her markings glow. The more intense the glow, the more powerful the surge of power. They also glow with intense emotion, such as anger, sadness or joy. When she fights, she prefers a weapon in each hand, rather than her fists. That's why she has backup boot knives in case she loses her flow whip cylinders.

@Vespertide A little rough on the details, but accepted!

Gilzar · Aug 12, 2015

@Huntrey I like it, but can we work on the personality a little more? I'd like it expanded...explain the flaws a little more.
