Pre-Character Checklist
Before you proceed to make a character and completely butcher absolutely everything about it, so much so that I force you back to the draft to undo all your hard work, make sure you've done the following things.
[border]
1. THE LORE. Have you read it? At least topics 1 and 2 are absolutely required. You can find it here.
2. Do you understand tiers? If not, then please PM me. If you can't find the tiers, please refer to the first message on the checklist. Read the lore. You must make a character with a tier in mind. Remember that delta-tier requires pre-approval, and gamma-tier requires consent. If you plan on having a character in either of these tiers, PM me!
3. There are certain powers you cannot use under ANY circumstances. They are, as follows.
- Almighty Powers (Omnipotence, omniscience, meta powers)
- Meta Powers
- Power Manipulation/Mimicry/Nullification, anything that hurts or copies another user's powers.
- Invulnerability
- Causality, Probability, or Logic Manipulation
- Basically, anything game-breaking. If I say no to a power, it means no.
4. There are powers that need pre-approval from me, and those are Quantum-State Powers. What are they? Refer to 1 on the checklist. It's in the lore. Examples of quantum state powers are time manipulation, pathifery, and pocket dimensions. Remember, these are rare and I reserve the right to deny you of these powers at ANY time.

Congratulations, you made it through the checklist, presumably after reading the lore. Now, you're ready to make a character! Hooray! Here are some important things to keep in mind while making the character.
Power vs. Skill
Powers are supernatural abilities that your character possesses. Skills are things your character can do even without their powers.
Specialization vs. Generalization
Nobody's perfect, and nobody's damn close either. Either your character specializes and has high ratings in one or two power attribute groups, or they're just an all around type of metahuman. It's better to specialize, as it makes characters unique, but generalized characters can be fun as well!
Now, without further ado...let's get onto the character sheet!

Now, without further ado...let's get onto the character sheet!
BASIC
Name: Your name
Nickname(s): Any other names they go by?
Alias: Your "official" nickname.
Gender: Male? Female? Firetruck?
Age: Age in years, please.
PERSONA
Appearance: What you look like. A picture is 1000 words, but you can write too.
Height: Vertical Stretch
Weight: Poundage
Costume: Got a costume? (Optional!)
Body Modifications/Implants: You put metal in your body? (Optional!)
Blood Type: For transfusion reasons.
Personality: What you're like. If you provide too little, expect that you won't be accepted. I want to know how your character sees the world.
Backstory: 1 paragraph minimum. Doesn't have to be tragic or world-breaking.
Relationships: Important people in their life?
Powers
Abilities: You may have more than one, but you are going to provide stats for each ability. Remember, most people can only activate one ability at a time, unless it's passive. Each ability requires a description, outlining its exact abilities. Don't give your character too many abilities.
Power: (1-10) Include
Defense: (1-10) a
Recovery: (1-10) description
Range: (1-10) for
Speed: (1-10) each
Intended Tier: Remember now that if you make your character's stats too powerful, it's back to the draft with you. Most stats are under 5, and your character can still be in gamma-tier. Again, read the lore! If you got this far, and still haven't read the lore, read it now.
Limits: Limits of ALL abilities.
Weaknesses: The stronger the ability, the more likely it has a fatal weakness. A weakness is NOT a limit, as a weakness is capable of canceling an ability out altogether.
Skills & Equipment
Skills: These are not powers. They are skills.
Equipment: Maximum of 5, ammunition does not count.
Personal Items: As many as you can carry without looking like a nerd.
Misc.
Starting City: Callinety or Blackfall
Affiliation: Who are they sided with? THIS IS NOT ALIGNMENT!
Signature Color: You can either state a color or provide me with a hex code of one. This will be the color of your character's chart.
Extra: Anything else I missed?

Upon approval, you will receive a power chart with your character's abilities on it. You may save this chart for future use. If your character is registered to the GenerXity database, their chart will be in the database and can be accessed by experienced hackers.
