[Jhade]

I actually have an idea for an original character that I might go with. I'm gonna make some art over the weekend and work on some stuff for him/her.

 

[Jhade]

Alright! Are you wanting to use the original character instead of Iron Spider or Antivenom?

yes

 

[Jhade]

can you do an example character sheet so we know what to do?

 

[Kameron Esters-]

Now i think about it, i can even do Lizard, Super Skrull, Abomination, Kraven, and C. Britain. Granted ofcourse i can save those for way later.

 

[Kameron Esters-]

I can go with Scorpion as my first. And as for plot i was thinking either something like these:
1. Skrull Invasion
2. Goblin Nation
3. Age of Apocalypse
4. Coming of Morwen

Powers and Abilities ↴

• Heart-Shaped Herb Enhancement: After having consumed the 'Heart-Shaped Herb', Erik Killmonger's physical attributes have been significantly enhanced to levels comparable to a super soldier. Unlike the Super Soldier Serum, the Heart-Shaped Herb will last for a lifetime, at least until a user drinks a serum to negate the powers of the herbs for a trial combat for a fair fight to become King of Wakanda.
  • Enhanced Strength: In addition to being in peak physical conditioning, the herb endowed Killmonger with strength proportionate to that of his cousin. As the Black Panther, Killmonger was able to challenge both T'Challa and the Dora Milaje in close combat, proving himself an almost indefatigable fighter.
  • Enhanced Durability: Killmonger is much more durable than a normal human being. Even when not wearing his Panther Habit, he can survive immense blunt force trauma.
  • Enhanced Speed: Killmonger can run and move at speeds above normal humans.
  • Enhanced Stamina: Killmonger's musculature produces fewer fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of an ordinary human. Killmonger's body eliminates the excessive build-up of fatigue-producing chemicals in his muscles, granting him exceptional endurance and lung capacity, greater than of normal humans.
  • Enhanced Agility: Killmonger's agility is outstanding, far greater than Olympic athletes. His movements are akin to an actual panther, being capable of crawl and climb through walls and leap great distances with accuracy.
  • Enhanced Reflexes: Killmonger's reflexes are superior to those of the finest human athlete.

Abilities

• Master Martial Artist: Due to his life long rigorous training as a SEAL and Black Ops mercenary, Erik was an extremely strong and skilled master martial artist, one of the most dangerous fighters on the planet. Erik's skill was great enough that in their first duel, in which both of them had no superhuman physical abilities, he was able to fight reasonably evenly with T'Challa and even ultimately defeat him, although his victory was aided due to the fact T'Challa was currently conflicted from the recent knowledge of his father's misdeeds and unwillingness to deliver a fatal blow. After drinking the Heart Shaped Herb, Erik became even more formidable due to gaining superhuman physical powers, to the point that while wearing the upgraded Panther Habit, he could fight off many members of Dora Milaje and kill one before being subdued and quickly outfight Nakia despite her having aid from Shuri using her gauntlets to stun him. In their final fight, with T'Challa fighting to kill now, Killmonger proved able to stalemate and even at times dominate T'Challa wearing his Black Panther Habit, only barely being beaten due to T'Challa exposing his suit's exposed part to deliver a fatal blow.
• Sword Mastery: Killmonger was able to wield Wakandan swords and similar bladed weapons with great skill. His skill with a sword allowed him to go up against T'Challa in their duel for the throne and even beat him and later easily defeat many members of Dora Milaje and Nakia by himself.
• Expert Marksman: As a former American black-ops mercenary, Killmonger was incredibly accurate with firearms. He was able to wield both high caliber assault rifles, as well as handguns with great accuracy.
• Master Tactician: Killmonger was a proficient strategist, able to formulate and execute cunning strategic plans. Killmonger was able to find a Wakandan weapon made of vibranium within the Museum of Great Britain and, with his group, helped Klaue steal the weapon. When T'Challa finally managed to capture Klaue after thirty years of pursuit, Killmonger and his group were able to strategically save him.
• Master Assassin: Although, Killmonger was not as a deadly assassin as Winter Soldier. However, Due to his intensive experience as a Navy SEAL and mercenary in an American Black Ops Ghost unit, Killmonger is very skilled in assassination techniques, as well as espionage, intelligence gathering, infiltration, and sabotage. He gained the nickname "Killmonger" due to his substantial kill-count which, according to Everett Ross, he “racked up like a video game”.
• Expert Acrobat: Upon acquiring the powers of the Heart Shaped Herb, Erik's immensely enhanced agility made him an extraordinary gymnast and acrobat, which allowed him to combat Black Panther on equal grounds.
• Multilingual: Killmonger speaks his native English, and was taught to speak Xhosa by his father
  
  Weakness ↴ Questionable ethics & mentality. Mortality.

Strange, RPNation didnt update me of new posts. Ill make up a sheet shortly.

 

[Kameron Esters-]

i think the 4th one. Morwen comes and posesses the body of Tess Black like in Amazing Spider-Man #503. She seeks to insight chaos across the world, but for the time being will stick to cause up the game in terms of gang wars, which will tear apart cities from underneath, then move on to military forces. Basically have the world destroy itself with new 'toys'.

 

[kasigi]

S Sinulacrum

How much should I base the character off of my choice? Like, should I do just the powers but with a different appearance and other general information? With what the powers are, a regular human having them wouldn't make too much sense, haha.

  Origin
  Gwen Poole originally lived in a universe not unlike ours, a place where all super-heroes and super-villains were fictional characters that manifested through comic books, movies, and other media. Gwen's difficulty to find a job after having been unable to graduate from high school, combined with the fact all of her friends moved away, led her to submerge in fiction in order to escape from her reality and fantasize about a better world, becoming lazy and apathetic, to the chagrin of her parents.
  
  Through unrevealed means, Gwen ended up in the Prime Marvel Universe. However, both became separated on arrival, and believed the other hadn't survived the transition. Unwilling to being relegated as an "extra," Gwen went to Big Ronnie's Custom Battle Spandex and requested her own costume to stand out. The Ronnie complied, but she also misread Gwen's form, and thought the young girl went by the alias of "Gwenpool."
  
  Gwenpool's first misadventure involved stealing a virus from the Black Cat and selling it to Hydra for quick cash, believing that the Avengers would deal with any sort of consequence. When Gwenpool attempted to kill Howard the Duck, who had been coerced by the Black Cat into finding the thief, he made Gwen see the error in her nonchalant attitude, which originated from Gwen undervaluing the lives of the inhabitants of the Marvel Universe, whom she believed were nothing more than fictional characters. Gwen rectified her misdeed by infiltrating into a Hydra facility and getting rid of the virus with Howard's help.
  
  Life as Henchman
  In order to find a stable source of income, Gwen decided to become a mercenary, getting contract jobs from the tailor Ronnie. While trying to carry out the job of taking down a Teuthidan squadron stationed on Earth, Gwenpool murdered another mercenary that had completed said mission and took credit for his work. The employer of the hitman Gwen murdered turned out to be M.O.D.O.K., who tracked down Gwenpool to have her take the place of his deceased hitman in his Mercenary Organization Dedicated Only to Killing. In order to coerce her into joining his namesake organization, M.O.D.O.K. killed Cecil, a hacker Gwen befriended who had become her mission control. Gwenpool's teammates in M.O.D.O.K.'s elite were Batroc the Leaper, Mega Tony, and Terrible Eye.
  
  After catching notice of Gwen's lack of skills during her first mission, Batroc helped her become a better fighter. With M.O.D.O.K. growing suspicious of Gwen's absolute lack of back records, which also prevented her from getting paid, she sought Doctor Strange's help. The sorcerer transplanted every trace of Gwen's existence from her home universe to her new reality. Even though Gwen now enjoyed the benefits of getting paid and Batroc's training, the appearance of her back records allowed M.O.D.O.K. to discover she was in fact a completely normal person with no real skills. M.O.D.O.K. confronted Gwen and tried to kill her for it, but with a mix of luck and Batroc's training, Gwen managed to fend off M.O.D.O.K., ultimately defeating him with the help of Cecil's ghost, whose presence was made possible in the land of the living with Doctor Strange's help.
  
  Head of M.O.D.O.K.
  Now in control of MODOK's team, Gwen incidentally runs into Miles Morales, who initially helps her before, disgusted by her cavalier and dangerous attitude, he turns her in to the police. Rescued by her team, she discovers that the alien race she had claimed the credit for killing, the Teuthidians, have come seeking revenge. She dresses a pig up in a version of her costume and goes to meet Vincent Doonan, who has sought to hire the team to maintain peace and normalcy in his neighbourhood. Becoming increasingly unsettled by the growing danger and reality of her new universe, she agrees to destroy the Teuthidians on Vincent's behalf. She plans to distract the aliens and the police, who have joined forces to capture her, but is sold out by Vincent. She shoots him in the face, revealing him to be a rogue Doombot. They fight through the streets of New York City and Gwen, hopelessly outmatched, flees. She discovers her team of Poole Boys and mounts an attack on the Teuthidian headquarters, successfully freeing her teammates but losing what little remains of their faith in her.
  
  Interim
  Adrift, Gwen comes into contact with several teams and groups, including Rocket Raccoon and Groot, the Champions, and Blade.
  
  Team MODOK
  Captured by Arcade, Gwen finds herself imprisoned in one of his Murderworlds with the rest of her team. Agreeing to work together, they make their way through the RPG-themed dungeon until they encounter Deadpool. She is nearly defeated by him, but at the last minute convinces him to join forces with her against Arcade. Escaping with her team, she makes it her mission to help them all better themselves. She convinces Mega Tony to get a job at Parker Industries and, after a series of incidents involving Hawkeye and Ghost Rider, manages to find Cecil a new, if slightly monstrous, body.
  
  Beyond the Fourth Wall
  Becoming curious about the potential existence of a version of her family in the Marvel universe, she finds her brother Teddy to be alive and well. Horrified at what his sister has become, he attempts to drag her back to their home universe. Initially convinced by the world around her, Gwen soon begins to notice the cracks in reality, literally becoming aware of, and able to interact with, the fourth wall. Slowly it becomes clear that they are not truly back in their home universe, but a pocket universe created by future versions of Miles Morales, Vincent Doonan, and the Terrible Eye, who have travelled back from the future to stop her from becoming the villain she is destined to become. Her reality manipulation powers having manifested as a result of their tampering, Gwen easily escapes and attempts to reason with the time travellers. They resist, and she is captured by Morales, who begins to recount her future crimes, accidentally allowing her future, villainous incarnation to enter reality. Evil Gwen reveals that if she does not go evil her comic will be cancelled, and she will fade into obscurity. Unwilling to believe it, Gwen fights and defeats her future self by refusing to become her, thus writing her out of existence. Resolving to travel down a new path, Gwen decides to become a full-time hero.
  
  Doom Sees You
  Determined to be the best hero she can be, Gwen begins dealing with villains and threats by throwing them into the void beyond the comic book page. Desperate to become an Avenger, she calls out Doctor Doom. He traps her and points out that he is now a hero but, enraged, she uses her powers to summon forth an old, villainous version of him. She forces this version outside of reality, believing him to be defeated until he re-emerges. They fight until the current version of Doom returns and destroys the old Doom. Outside of the panel, she reveals that her time is drawing short and that cancellation looms unless she is willing to become a villain.
  
  Lost in the Plot
  Gwen asks Batroc to help her commit a crime, and together they pull off a heist at a flying casino. Resigned to her life of villainy, she discovers that Batroc specifically selected a criminal target. Realizing her title is coming to an end, Gwen meets the future version of herself and undertakes several missions to wrap things up and improve the lives of her friends. Using her powers, she protects a little girl who dressed up as Gwenpool for Halloween, and visits the girl several times over the course of her life. Making her peace with her life, Gwen goes back to comfort her past self. But it appears her story has indeed yet to end and continues if in a less convetional location.

  POWERS AND SKILLS​
  Gwen has vast reality manipulation powers. She is aware that the world in which she exists is a comic book, and is able to interact with these comic book elements to a variety of effects; for example, she is able to step out of and between panels to facilitate travel between great distances and even backwards or forwards in time, to throw others into the "void" beyond panel borders, or to interact with scene elements such as word bubbles or sound effects. However, her ability is somewhat constrained by the medium: she cannot eliminate any person or object that the higher ups want to keep in canon, and her ability to jump between panels is limited by whether a scene has occurred or will occur in the issue she is in. She is remarkably durable with the capability to shrug off injuries that should injurie her having no effect, and when she is injured she heals quickly. She possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of all events, facts, and secrets of the Marvel Universe up to the point at which she entered it; though she is aware that she is in a comic book, she is unable to acquire new extraordinary knowledge as she no longer has access to new comic books, she is however capable of gathering such by jumping between multiple series, yet is unable to enter. Gwen has training in a variety of fields and experience from her time within this world having been active for the past 3 years, as well as protected by her status as a main character giving her a degree of plot armor.
  
  Additional Abilities:
  Proffessional Training: With the help of Batroc as well as skipping between other issues Gwen has a range of skills as a result of her training. Possessing a natural talent for firearms she is also trained in parkour and several martial arts, becoming extremely athletic through these efforts. This extends to operating veichles to a high degree of finesse, however this may also be aided simply by her other abilities.
  Medium Awareness: Her medium awareness makes Gwen genre savvy, being able to extrapolate the characteristics of things like video games to situations inspired by them. She also can, or at the very least believes, that she can purposefully invoke cliches or tropes, or typical narrative elements, in order to aide herself, or indeed to help other people, such as making a background extra say their name to turn them into someone the writers won't be able to easily kill off.
  Natural Luck: Either my innate qualities or merely the nature of her medium Gwen is possess a remarkably high degree of luck on how events seem to go her way. She has often managed to use this in order to achieve the incredible and unbelievable .
  Out-Of-Universe Knowledge: Due to the fact she read countless of adventures that delved into the private lives of various superheroes she currently interacts with, Gwen possesses a vast knowledge on heroes' alter-egos and other such secrets. She's even aware of writer trademarks, however Gwen's knowledge is limited by the amount of comics she has read. For example, her knowledge on Deadpool is very limited by the fact she didn't read his comics. Her knowledge is also limited to events before she made the transition to the Marvel Universe; newer storylines and character changes are unknown to her until she finds out about them in-universe.
  
  Limitations:
  Dated Knowledge: Gwens knowledge is limited to events before she made the transition to the Marvel Universe; newer storylines and character changes are unknown to her until she finds out about them in-universe.
  Editorial Oversight: Gwen's powers are limited to what she would be editorially allowed to do. While this may be pushed there are certain changes she is incapable of making to the world without them being reverted shortly after, this however may be limited given by her current popularity.
  
  Items:
  Gwen carries two katanas, with which she is trained through a mixture of her own efforts, watching other heroes and instructional videos, as well as having access to a vast arsenal of guns and various other weapons. While initially wearing a simple spandex costume, she has since gained a a upgraded version however in the same style constructed of a lightweight yet highly protective bulletproof material. She is also currently in possession of a large amount of wealth from her previous less legal activities as well as a portable HQ in the form of the M.O.D.O.K base she liberated following a conflict with him.
  
  • Blades: Gwen carries twin katanas that are normally dual wielded and have been shown to be sharp to penetrate hardened surfaces even on the level of other superhumans with enhanced durability such as the alien Groot, mechanical appendages, guns. She is also capable of launching these weapons in a method that they bounce several times before returning like a boomerang. She also carrys numerous concealed Shivs and Daggers, Simple blades used for either close combat or as projectiles should her swords be out of each, as well as simply cutting through needed objects.
  • Bludgeon: On rare occasion Gwen has been seen with a comically oversized mallet in her signature colors.
  • Firearms: M1911 Pistols are Gwens regular guns of choice, these 45 caliber semi-automatic pistols have served her well and are frequently dual wielded. She has also been seen dual wielding IMI Uzi's from time to time. When additional firepower is require she is known to carry a wide array of machine guns such as IMI Galil SAR 5.56, M16, AK-107 and, M4 Carbine. For longer distances she also possesses FN SPR Sniper rifele and even a RPG-7 for when needed. For extreme cases she is known to be in possession of a magically enchanted Rocket launcher of great power, to the point it even amanged to damage Dormammu himself.
  • Explosives: A Wide array of various grenade are carried within her various pouches as well as explosive charges. These also include Smoke bombs that create a pinkish cloud, sticky bombs, dynamite, and personalized grenades of far greater power than conventional devices.
  • Shield Generator: A Personal single use shield generator that is capable of completely protecting from even the advanced lazor weaponry of M.O.D.O.K, however it is only capable of blocking a single attack before it requires to be recharaged.
  • Veichles: Other than assorted equipment purchased and stolen, Gwens main veichle of choice is a customized pink dirtbike that has been heavily modified to even allow the mounting of weapondry.
  
  Physical Weaknesses:
  
  • Despite all of her accomplishments, Gwen is still a mortal human and at base is capable of physical feats equivilant to a woman who engages in regular excercise.
  Mental/Emotional Weaknesses:
  
  • Incredibly self-absorbed and reckless at times.
  • Knowledge of trops has been known to backfire at times.
  • Occasionally Lacks forthought in her actions and their consequences and so can be prone to making dumb decisions
  • She has a short attention span when items are not directly relevant to her current interest.
  
  
• 
  A cheerful and energetic girl with a penchant for turning full fangirl when encountering her favourite characters, she is known to be extremly talkative and making several jokes and references though some may hit the mark due to others lacking her knowledge. Gwen Poole initially had little regard for any lives aside from her own, property damage, or anything that transpired that didn't affect her directly. This was a consequence of Gwen presently living in a universe she believes is entirely fictional, showing no care for those deemed as bad guys or non important characters. Gwen eventually learned to frown upon such unconcerned demeanor after meeting a version of herself from a future in which such disregard manifested in acting evil for the sake of it. She has come to realize how much harm she has done to those around her with thinking of them as just characters and ploty devices. Gwen's actions and decisions are heavily influenced by the fact she believes the universe doesn't operate in shades of grey, and it's ultimately ruled by storytelling devices and tropes. Despite her actions she has been shown to care deeply for her friends and is willing to go to great lengths to protect them.
  
  Unfortuantely she does have a habbity of going in with her actions without fully thinking of the consequences, this combined with her strange comments regarding a fiction world has had her come off as crazy to a large number of individuals. She can be sarcasteic when annoyed or irrated but despite of off this she wants to do the right thing and become a hero on the same level as other heroes within the universe. Deep down, she disliked her previous life back in the origional world as she was unable to finish high school, saw all her friends leave and even had difficulty getting a job resulting in her seeking escapism within media and become lazy and apathetic. This results in her belief that not being remembered in her origional world would be for the best.

[MoonLegend101]

"Otto Octavius was weak. Call me... DOCTOR OCTOPUS!"

Real Name → Otto Octavius

Current Alias → Doctor Octopus; Doc Ock

Affiliation → Himself, the Sinister Six; practically with anyone else who hates Spider-Man or Norman Osborn

Base Of Operations → Otto has several hidden bases that he keeps to reside and plan in, though they are primarily located in New York, usually underground and are most often filled with high tech scientific equipment for whatever scheme he's planning to set into motion next.

Identity → Public Identity, since he doesn't have much of a life anymore as Otto Octavius, and everyone is aware of the accident that happened to him of fusing his robotic arms to his skin and making him known as an outcasted supervillian forevermore.

Citizenship → American

Marital Status → Single (formerly married; wife deceased)

Occupation → Criminal mastermind, head scientist at Oscorp (formerly); regular committer of crimes

Education → Ph.D. in Nuclear physics from M.I.T, honorary doctorate in biochemistry; master's degree in prosthetics and orthotics.

Gender → Male

Height → 5'3

Weight → 142 lbs

Age → 45

Eyes → Chocolate Brown

Hair → Dark brown, nearly black; his hair is beginning to thin around his temples, but once used to be fairly wavy and a bit unruly.

Unusual Features →
Otto Octavius has four extra robotic, mechanical tentacle-like arms which are connected to the back of a harness that became fused to his skin, and are mentally controlled by him with the help of a chip imbedded in the back of his neck. The arms are pure black and very durable metal, with three sharp claws that form pincers on the end of each arm. The arms are quite long and have incredible reach, though they can still retract back into his harness and be fairly inconspicuous underneath his long brown overcoat whenever he wants to conceal them. Otto is quite short and stout for those his age, though not too unnaturally so, but in any case he often uses his extra arms to lift himself high up in the air and intimidatingly hover above others in order to compensate for his lack of intimidating stature. Whenever moving with his own two feet, it can be noticed that Otto moves very stiffly, and often can't perform basic motor easily functions such as reaching behind his neck or doing movements such as twisting a doorknob or opening a lid without a bit of a struggle.

This is because of a genetic degenerative muscle disorder that he has plagued with through his late adulthood, and which is gradually taking away all his motor functions until his body will completely useless and he won't be able to do hardly anything- maybe not even breathe. The fact that he has had the disease for years now is why his movements are becoming almost noticeably shaky and stiff, though he does his best to hide his condition by having his mechanical arms help him with performing trivial tasks such as opening a door or any other complex movements, and he most often can put on the appearance of moving normally enough, though as time passes, his increasing physical frailty becomes more and more apparent, as does his desperation to do something about that torturous fragility.

The accident that made Octavius the monster that he is now caused some brain damage, leading to some memory loss and personality changes as a result, though these symptom's aren't visibly noticeable. Otto also has a recently developed condition called myopia, otherwise known as nearsightedness, which requires prescription eyeglasses, as much as he chafes under the very thought of wearing them, due to not wanting to allow weakness of any kind to show. He hides the necessity of having to use them beneath the darkly shaded goggles he wears over his eyes with his supervillain uniform in order to protect the eyes. He might only ever bother to wear the normal eyeglasses that he used to wear as Otto Octavius whenever attempting to remember what it was like or wistfully reminiscing about being the idealistic, respectable scientist that he had once been. Surprisingly, these rare moments of regret and reflection do actually happen every now and then, despite how fewer and more fleeting these particular instances have tragically become the more Otto immerses himself into a world of supervillainy and hatred.

Powers and Abilities →

Cybernetic Tentacles: Doctor Octopus' superhuman abilities derive from the four mentally-controlled, electronically-powered, telescoping, prehensile titanium-steel tentacles attached to a stainless steel harness encircling his body from lower chest to waist. Each tentacle, approximately five inches in diameter, terminates in three single-jointed pincers. The pincers are able to rotate in relation to the arm for 360 degrees, in a screwdriver-like twisting motion. Each tentacle segment contains four high-efficiency electric motors equipped with a clutched, helical-gear train, independently mounted on frictionless gimbals and housed in four thin, overlapping layers of titanium-niobium steel. The titanium-steel alloy is light, has high-tensile strength, a high melting point, and high thin-wall rigidity. The motors get their power from a small nuclear-powered thermo-electric generator, which can provide several hundred watts per hour for up to five years before needing to replace its U-239 core. The tentacles have been modified since the time of the original accident that fused them to his skin to include high-efficiency battery packs (enabling movement when cut off from the central power source) and individual micro-circuit control modules (enabling each arm to perform certain pre-programmed actions when Octopus loses conscious control). In the event that Octopus loses consciousness, the control module of each arm has enough pre-programmed conditional responses in its memory chip to enable it to perform a relatively complex sequence of actions, such as saving his life. The trauma of his arm or arms being separated from the harness causes a period of disorientation in which his arms flail about uncontrollably until the pre-programming takes over.

Technopathic Tentacle Manipulation: Octopus can control the actions of his artificial arms psionically, even when they have been severed from his body and are separated from him by vast distances (a distance of 900 miles has been recorded).

Telescoping: Each tentacle is approximately six feet long at full contraction, but can extend to a maximum of 24 feet in length.

Superhuman Striking Force: Each tentacle is capable of moving at a speed of ninety feet per second and strike with the force of a jackhammer.

High-Wind Generation: The tentacles can generate 50 mile per hour winds if spun like a giant fan.

Wall-Climbing and Traveling: By combining the intrinsic strength of both his tentacles and the pincers, Doctor Octopus can scale stone, brick, or concrete walls by rending "handholds" in the surface of the wall. Octopus is able to use his tentacles for traversing horizontal distances as well. At full extension, he can travel high above the ground as if on stilts, either using two tentacles, or for maximum speed (approximately 50 miles per hour), four tentacles.

Sensation Feeling: Although there are no nerve endings throughout the length of his artificial arms, Octopus can "feel" basic sensations with them. As a result of the mutagenic changes from exposure to radiation during the accident, electrical connections have been made from his chest harness to his spine. Thus, Doctor Octopus can mentally perceive "tactile" sensations by feeling the amount of electrical resistance that the pincer's electric motors feel when the pincers grasp an object.

Superhuman Concentration: Doctor Octopus possesses extraordinary mental abilities and concentration, and through months of practice is able to perform two complex and two simple independent actions, simultaneously, one with each arm.

Genius Intelligence: Otto Octavius is a mutlti-discipline scientist with expertise in various fields of science.

Radiation and Prosthetics Specialist: Doctor Octopus is one of the world's leading authorities on nuclear radiation and specializes specifically in researching its variety of effectson other living beings, even himself. His true passion is prosthetics however, as he is quite an expert in that field as well, such as how to replace lost or dysfunctional limbs as well as how to compensate for them. This is partly due to his own condition that he is desperate to remedy, but once upon a time, he did truly care about helping the whole world with his findings about the effects of radiation and revolutions in prosthetics. Now however, his misguided intelligence and revolutions in both fields of study only benefit himself, though what good any of his knowledge actually does him rather than anyone else is really up to interpretation.

Engineering: Doctor Octopus is a brilliant engineer and inventor, due to his intellect and resourcefulness.

Strength Level: Without the use of his artificial tentacles, Otto possesses the normal human strength of a man of his age, height, and build who engages in no regular exercise, and his muscle disease makes things even more difficult to lift or move around. Each of his tentacles is able to lift approximately 8 tons (provided that Octopus supports his harness with at least one other arm in order to prevent the chest harness/skin interface from bearing any part of the effort). With one arm, Octopus can lift an automobile. With two arms, he can throw an automobile tens of feet, or lift a small bus. The pincers on his arms are capable of gripping with a force of 175 pounds per square inch, sufficient to deform any object made of a thin-walled substance less durable than steel. The pincers can, for instance, crush a handgun. By combining the intrinsic strength of both his tentacles and the pincers, Doctor Octopus can perform such feats as tearing steel doors off bank vaults.


Weaknesses → Despite how much Doctor Octopus might attempt to elavate himself above common humanity, the fact of the matter is, beneath the artificial arms welded onto his body to make him stronger, he really is just a normal human. Because of this, he has the weaknesses that come with being a human as well, no matter how much he attempts to hide this fact. For example, even though Otto has a suit designed for himself that can provide decent shielding against bullets, his head, face, and any other vulnerable spots are still susceptible to bullets or blunt force if he was to be struck by them. Because of having been made just a bit more durable from the excruciatingly painful and biologically altering accident that formed him, he would be able to handle a little more traumatic njury than normal humans before passing out or having a concussion, he'd still immediately succumb to something like a bullet or an inhumanly strong blow to the head. As previously mentioned, Otto has an eventually fatal muscle disease that is slowly beginning to affect him more and more, which can definitely be exploited as a weakness if one notices it or is aware of it. Not only is he very emotionally insecure and inwardly fearful about it, which would lead to uncharacteristically rash thinking, but the disease also causes him to move much more stiffly and sluggishly with his natural arms. Because of this, if someone were to trap him into direct physical combat without his mechanical arms to aid him, he wouldn't stand much of a chance.

If someone were ever to forcibly remove or tear off his robotic tentacles, it would cause Otto to be in extreme physical and mental agony, since it'd be just like ripping off one of his natural limbs with how connected he is to his artificial arms, and they're really the only way that he truly feels stronger and more superior than others. While Doctor Octopus is usually quite in control of his mental faculties, considering how he is his strategic and manipulating self and often calmly acts like he is in control of the situation no matter what happens, he does have certain emotional vulnerabilities that can be exposed as well. In one example, if Otto is insulted or taunted long enough, then his damaged pride and ego might be enough to cause him to act irrationally or without much thought in a situation, due to how desperate he would be to reassert his superiority and dominance in the situation, though in the attempt of trying to preserve his pride he would most likely end up sabotaging himself in the process. Otto lost many memories of the life he used to have with a loving wife and a prestigious job, but there are still flickers of his old life that torment him, because he knows that whatever those brief visions of that beautiful but foreign life are, he can't have it. If this weakness was exploited, and his old life was mentioned or talked about frequently, he would be enraged, but also a bit hurt and forlorn about the subject as well, due to how painful it is for him, and would become even more pained and distraught if the topic would be pressed upon further. Doctor Octopus blames Norman Osborn for taking his life away and ruining it completely, so if the man was even mentioned excessively, that would be another cause for him to act in blind rage. Otto also has a slight fear and paranoia about spiders, either the normal kind or the physically altered human ones, which is why he would attempt to squash any he sees in the immediate vicinity, and also always absolutely hates getting defeated and outsmarted by Spider-Man for pride reasons and otherwise, but this particular fear would probably be pretty difficult to exploit due to how deeply he buries it.

(I hope it's alright that I took liberties with the character, and kind of mixed and matched the best of the different versions of the character without being totally accurate to the comics. I hope that'll be okay, but if not, just let me know, and I'd always be happy to change it if needed!)​

I have an idea for two OCs I might use. Though, I would like someone to give me an opinion on my concept before I write it down as a CS. Anyone willing to hear my idea?

Kameron Esters- My idea so far is a duo of heroes called The Zodiac Brothers, who base their gimmicks off two animals from the Chinese Zodiac. Their real names are Peter and Chang Langdon, two high-school seniors living in NYC. Peter and Chang, even though Chang is a adopted child from China, have a very close relationship and decided to use their athletic talents to " stick it" to the criminal gangs terrorizing their neighborhood. Peter has the dragon zodiac as a gimmick and is a member of his school's football and wrestling teams, so his combat style is based off the skills he learns from these two sports. Chang, who chose the Tiger zodiac, is part of the school's gymnastics team and takes Judo lessons. The two often use teamwork and double team maneuvers to take down foes. My concern, besides the idea not being developed enough, is the idea that I might be ripping off these guys.
Zodiac (Marvel)

Killerclown This might help if you want to go in a slightly different direction Tiger Versus Dragon - TV Tropes

 

[PlusUltra]

There is one issue in that the GM stated only 1 character per person. So the Duo may not work depending on if the GM will make a exception.

 

[kasigi]

Am I able to take the character I have in mind and translate them from their Universe into the Marvel Univese? Like, take the character I have in mind and change their information so that they fit, basically just keeping their appearance and powers?

If not, I'd like someone to help me find pictures! There's multiple forms, so I'd need some help.

 

[Killerclown]

A difficult decision to be made here because I would really prefer one person per character but on the other hand, I don't like to shoot down other's ideas. I am willing to make an exception as long as the two of them separately are very weak and are essentially only useful together. This would serve as a very good weakness as well as something that could add to the plot. Let me know if that's something that would be okay with you.

That is a fair compromise. In fact, it makes sense entirely for my character's main theme, which is Brotherhood. That are weak apart, but strong together. Also, thanks Scatterbrain for the Ying-Yang idea, i might use that.

 

[PlusUltra]

As long as you change the characters name, since "Black Sperm" might not be the best one for a Marvel Character even if it is translated. So effectively just a strong brawler with duplication/regeneration tricks. If i recall the webcomic that guy is far its just bigger/buffer versions. So maybe just find a character and use their child version/adult versions?. Not sure what type of appearance you have in mind.

​

Yeah, I was definitely thinking the name "Black Sperm" to be a bit much, probably just going to name him Cell something, I'm sure I'll figure it out. Originally I was just gonna go for a regular human-like appearance, but I just couldn't imagine them turning into a giant fleshy hand. Guess that isn't exactly something too out of the ordinary, though. I think a monster like appearance could work better, but I'm not too good at finding those pictures.

 

[PlusUltra]

Ton of random monster ones and another that might fit. say if any are in right direction.

 

[kasigi]

I mean, if I'm allowed to use the appearance, I might as well.
