In that case it might take a tad longer, but I'm thankful for the heads up.

Yeah my guy is similar in character to Damon from Vampire Diaries TV show. He wants to be good but acting on impulse sometimes he does things that are villianous (ex. killing someone because they betrayed him or tried to hurt someone he cared for.

returning! Code Name: N/A Real Name: Krystal Felidae Origin: Born on a ice planet with her older brother, they learned to survive the harsh environment with the help of their parents and friends. It wasn't easy but she enjoyed her unorthodox situation. For most of her life she was innocent but far from helpless as her father trained them both in various combat strategies and techniques. Of course the time eventually came to put them to use, when a war broke out in her home. Her side won, but it wasn't much of a victory to her. Not long after, her brother attempted to cheer her up by test-piloting their new starship model. Unfortunately Krystal was impatient and the engineer forgot to disengage the hyperdrive. BY coincidence the destination was right on Reach Island. Affiliation: Goldenboy Appearance: s108.photobucket.com/user/frezinx/media/IMG_20140121_191803_zps464fadbe.jpg.html?sort=3&o=50Primary Powers: Tactile Telekinesis. Strength is variable, she is extremely powerful but it's all focus based. Can be offensive or defensive depending on what she's trying to do but she needs to keep her guard up. powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Tactile_Telekinesis Seconary Powers: -Feline Phisiology(Pantherinae Physiology) powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Feline_Physiology -Enhanced Combat Equipment: -Collapsible halberd -hypersonic ringing bell -Equipment:-Caster gun w/shells. Miaoshian firearm capable of releasing bursts of weaponized essence. Volatile. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Code Name: N/A Real Name: Hirro Felidae Origin: Born on a ice planet with his younger sister, they learned to survive the harsh environment with the help of their parents and friends. While they were raised similarly, Hirro was naturally more inclined in the role of soldier. He worked along with his closest allies in an elite fighting group to try and stop invading forces. While they fought valiantly, it was't enough to prevent full-scale war and the sides were split through species. His group went on missions and did things he'd rather not talk about. With the war recently over, living life like nothing happened has been a problem especially for his sister. He attempted to try and cheer her up but his guard wasn't up and Krystal sent them across the galaxy for an adventure on earth.

I didn't change anything about Blue Fang. And nothing about Emma's powers besides why she has them. The sign up sheet if different now, and in the old RP you changed things about Blue Fang after you finished the sign up sheet, such as making the sword into a shield. Oh yeah! Better turn it into the shield duh!

UPDATE: READ ALL!! ALWAYS!Alright guys, thanks for patience. believe it or not we're rockin' and rolling I swear. Out of all my expectant returning vets, I have most all of them all down. From people I'm expecting/have been promised stuff from pretty much character-wise I think I'm only waiting on G4Hardcore and I got as much as a draft outta him so I'm cool since I know he's got some stuff to sort first. I know he can take awhile but I'm placing trust in him. I'll probably have the new entrant(s) posting stuff by next week so I hope that's not problem for you guys, just wait for my signal. A full-on list of participants(and the start of Reach City bio's for possibly-important NPC's) and their handles will probably come just before I green-light the newcomers to post their sheets. A few things that can be done meanwhile; -For everyone: if you haven't yet done it, please bookmark this OOC board along with any other important stuff I might call out. The thing does a good job of updating and reminding ya'll this exists and my biggest worry is post frequency and consistency. So if that helps prove me wrong then power to doing stuff like that! -From what I gather not many have given the original RP a read/refreshed themselves if they're returners...good for you guys . The quality I've been told isn't that bad but the final format took awhile to work on so each update is pretty jumbled around until at least halfway through. I think if you were to pick a PC or two and follow em through, you could manage so long as that person(s) was a consistent poster but yeah even then it's mainly that character's perspective to the point of being slice-of-life until shit gets real on last 5-10 or so pages. The PC's in general do good jobs of writing example-worthy posts and are fun reads, but if you do want to I can recommend a specific character to keep an eye out or give you a portion guideline of sorts. It's not necessary but I have gotten the question of "what's going on then?" enough times to address it. It makes explaining things easier for all I think. -Tom has begun a 1-on-1 RP with him as UWT3-The third one alumni Emerald Brightstar and me as Tundra Wolf, a supporting character who is buried somewhere in the Reach RP(some PC's have met her). It's not exactly necessary reading material, but we're doing our best to showcase a broad range of rping, a few faces that will be prominent in Reach might show for minor roles, and with any luck it'll be a good read. As for it being a sort of prequel to Reach my answer is one part *so-so hand gesture* and two parts wibbly wobbly timey wimey and flung into alternate-universes, so don't think too much about whether or not I'm making Dr. Who canon to Reach City. That's not necessary. We're picking up a decent back-n-forth, a few hiccups aside and the link's right here; electricferret.freeforums.net/thread/1515/tundra-emerald-world-Ruinus is a player in this RP, playing the very fun Maria/Prometheus combo. He's got some good stuff going for him, also he draws and he's great at that too. I asked about occasional Reach-related pic for suitably suitable situations and he's cool enough to actually do them. Here's his first big one, since the sum-up is one of the later things I will be posting this image might come up again but for now, enjoy- ^What we have here is that damn tram/train-stop that takes newcomers from Reach Island's port to the front door of the great walled-city. Creatures and creeps of all types are casually waiting for their next train(at least 10 pages worth of waiting) because Reach Transit Association is having some technical difficulties. Luckily, little do they know the party's late but it's meeting them halfway.

Welp, soon, but too soon. Uh, yeah G4 may be having technical difficulties. So as promised, when he shows up I'll have to catch him up/talk to him n such. Come Monday, Deo and Legacy, I approved your guy's sheets so feel free to post them and chat up or something. Just work out any polish stuff(pics, grammer, etc) and we'll be fine. I'm going to have to go around and have a chat or two, see whose taking spots and junk, I have not gotten any response from BBJ and an acquaintance has sort-of shown so I will sort out any other newcomers.
Also on monday I'm gonna have a bit of an announcement, before getting to work on some of the stuff I said I'd need to do before I get to the final countdown;
*RP tips- a little test thing to give the 101 to newcomers/ general etiquite ideas.
*example-character’s: Npc’s incoming similar to the Alabtross example posted waay back on post #1.
*sum up- pretty much a fair explanation of what’s happened and where we will be picking up where we left off, it’s my intention anyways. This in particular may be necessary since I have been asked a few times. -With that party on all.

Code name: Kain Alter ego: Mitsumi Hasono Origin: In the 15th century a war was coming to an end in Japan. The Emperor was being escorted through his new lands. As he passed through a lowly village, a child (Mitsumi Hasono) stood in front of a burning house. The Emperor noticed the boy was not in tears, nor did he look scared. In the boys eyes the Emperor could see determination and the will to survive. Motioning for it, the samurai gathered the boy and took him with them. The years following that, the Emperor treated the boy as his own son. While not from his blood line he couldn't be a successor, he was held in high regard. He took to the way of the samurai like no other. His effort and skills quickly propelled him to the top ranks of the samurai as he aged. At 18 he began joining the samurai on the battle field against his would be father's wishes. What Mitsumi showed in confidence and skill, he matched with a hidden rage that he was only able to release in combat on the battlefield. When Mitsumi went into combat the opposing army faltered at his sight. He was ruthless in his attacks. He alone would dispatch dozens of men. His reputation and ferocity began to even scare his own fellow samurai. The samurai went behind Mitsumi's back and planned a way to get rid of him before he could turn his rage towards them. One moonless night they were traveling home from battle. The samurai had paid an assassin to poison him as he slept under the stars. As he was sleeping an assassin lurked in the trees above. Lowering a string, it dangled above Mitsumi's mouth. Pouring the poison on the string, it ran its length and dripped into his mouth. He began and his body began to seize. He felt as though his entire body was cramping. As he opened his eyes, he could see his fellow samurai handing a black clad assassin a bag of money. They glanced his way and then began to pack up camp and leave. As Mitsumi lay in the night by the dying campfire a shadow approached. Stepping into the light it moved extremely fast to his side. The figure asked "Do you wish to die or live?" With a faint sound Mitsumi said, "Live." The next thing Mitsumi knew the figure clamped down on his neck with his teeth. After a moment he released Mitsumi and gave him a small cup. The figure put his own blood in it and said, "Drink." Doing so filled Mitsumi with exhilaration. He closed his eyes and gathered his senses. Rising to his feet, Mitsumi looked for his savior but he was nowhere to be seen. Grabbing his armor and weapons, Mitsumi began to trudge ahead. The samurai had returned and informed the Emperor that Mitsumi had died in combat. Returning to there horses, the samurai began to retrieve there supplies. The guards outside of the front gate said that someone was approaching. Going to investigate, they stopped the man. As they got closer, they could see the blood on the man's armor. Raising his head Mitsumi grinned a toothy grin. The guards gasped in horror. Before they knew what happened, Mitsumi cut them down. The samurai came running to there aid and stopped dead in there tracks in realization. Standing before them was Mitsumi. Looking them dead in the eye Mitsumi said, "Yes, it is I. Yes, you had me killed. I have been given a second chance. I know what you are thinking. How can this be? Well you see, a stranger gave me a gift." His eyes began to glow red and he bared his fangs. Hearing there thoughts he said, "Yes I am a tengu and I have returned here to have my revenge!" With that he drew his sword and charged head first into the throng of samurai. He began slashing and stabbing. The samurai were being torn apart by his rage. They could not believe his strength and speed. They struck him and it was as if it had no effect. Everyone paused for a moment when Mitsumi grabbed their leader and ripped off his helmet. He sunk his fangs deep in the neck of the samurai warrior. The rest of the samurai fled in panic. Mitsumi spent the next couple of days, terrorizing them and hunting them down. From that day on Mistumi became a ronin. He would join in on battles for the fun of the kill and to quench his thirst. As the years passed so did the way he operated. He had to adapt to the world that was changing around him. He became more subtle since the 20th century began. He decided to enjoy his life. Through the years his lust for spilling blood had died down. He was a warrior by nature but still had a heart. Now he was the owner of a night club in New York City. He had a headquarters underneath that housed his gear. He had developed a second life as a robber of sorts. He wore a suit that covered his face from cameras and his body from the sunlight. He was near unstoppable for the local authorities. He could have whatever he wanted using the tricks he had learn to master over time. He would kill any who opposed him. His one soft spot was for children. Even through all the years, he had not forgotten how the Emperor had shown him compassion. Mitsumi would not stand to see children hurt or taken advantage of. He also longed for someone to share his life with but had found no such equal in his many years. After hearing of Reach City, Mitsumi wanted to finally challenge himself once again. He liked a good fight and figured a city full of beings with special abilities was just the kind of place he could have some fun. If able he wanted to set up another club in the city. Affiliation: Anti-Villian Public status: As Mitsumi Hasono is a wealthy club owner to the public. As Kain he is a dangerous killer and theif. Appearance: Costume: Primary power: Vampire abilities (is 10x faster, stronger, and more agile than a human. Can also heal 10x faster) Secondary power: Has telepathy. He can read weak people's minds and put "suggestions" into their minds. Equipment: As Mitsumi Hasono he has a ring that allows him to walk in the sun and his traditional samurai blade. As Kain he has... -armor: Robotic armor that boosts his durability -weapons: A samurai sword that has the ability to cut through most man made objects. (similar to a predator smart disc)

Code Name: N/A Alter Ego: Det. Nadia Nichols Origin: At age 16 Nadia read The Big Sleep by Dashiel Hammet and decided then and there that she would be a hard-boiled, fedora wearing detective. Her parents pushed for psychiatry, her father knew some people, and with their daughter’s unusual skill set it seemed the logical option. But in a world of elder gods, Space Nazis, and Stardust Supermen, logic often fails to live up to the fantastic, and using your telepathy to help yuppies conquer their fear of intimacy may not be the most fulfilling use of your abilities. But taking down criminal masterminds and legions of super-hulk thugs like some sort of mutant Philip Marlowe, that could have some meat to it. Nadia moved to Reach City to be near the action and entered the Reach City Police Academy, where she was quickly identified as being both a super-human and a girl. With two strikes already against her it was tough sailing, but she still graduated top of her class, so the good old boys could suck eggs. And now Nadia Nichols is a detective. Well, a rookie with a two week old badge, but it still counts. Affiliation: Hero Public Status: Golden-girl Appearance/ Costume: Primary power: Superior Telekinesis: Nadia learned to channel her latent chaotic psychic powers through a focus, in this case her whip, allowing her to hold/push/pull/slash/throw/concuss/strangle people and objects with her mind. Superior TK forcefield: Not a separate power, but an extension of TK. Creates an invisible wall of kinetic force around her equal in strength to what she would have for manipulating objects. Standard Telepathy/ Active: Able to mentally communicate with others or read their thoughts. Secondary power: Standard detective: Nadia is observant and professionally adept at tracking people and picking up clues. A real gumshoe this one. Equipment:-Armor: Trenchcoat, occasional Fedora on bad hair days. -Weapons: The Whip is used mostly as a focus for TK, but its still an actual whip and she knows how to use it. -Gadgets: Flashlight Handcuffs Phone Police Radio Badge Pack of Gum (she doesn’t smoke…anymore) Theme Song:
Peter Gunn Theme: Peter Gunn Theme
