Name: David Brock
Theme: Defiance against your enemies
Background: David was raised in southern England, generally having avoided metahumans. At the age of 19, he and his family (Mum, Dad and younger sister) moved to America. Shortly after they moved, he and his sister were ambushed by armed criminals led by a supervillain when they were by themselves. They wanted their valuables and had very unsavoury ideas about what they were going to do with his sister. David defied their wishes and was prepared to fight them to protect this sister. They gunned him down.
Appearance: David Brock has a lean, but average build. No surprise given his lack of the Adonis power. He has choppy black hair, hard brown eyes and bland look over his face. David only wears protective clothing, both against the elements and against any attackers.

(+100/+30/+10/-5/-10/+15/-10/-25/+20/+50/+10/-25/+30/+20/+1/+11/+23/+90/-11) (65) Mental Derangement: 75/Grade 6. David sees himself as something there to protect he cares about and to fight their enemies. He doesn’t deem things as education, entertainment and luxury as relevant, ignoring them in favour of sustaining his basic needs such as food, rest, drink and focus. He is ability to interact with anybody outside of those he cares about is severely impaired and even then, he struggles to even just talk with those he cares about. David doesn’t seem to understand words anymore as he seems their actions and emotions to be more important.
(94) Star: O
(1/+3/+3) (20/18/30/3/27/9/38) Dreams:
Love: David’s power becomes stronger when he is protecting those he deeply cares about.
Family: His Psionic Field feels like an extension of David’s own body.
Home: David’s Psionic Field doesn’t lose charge when he is extending to those he deeply cares about as he deeply believes in doing your best to protect those you hold dear in even if means putting yourself in the way of whatever is threatening them.
Fragments: David can extend his powers to what he is touching at the expense of it being weaker and a quicker drain depending on the size of the object.
Flying: David can control where his Psionic Energy Blasts are projected from and how much power they have. He can also control what form they take if he has focus.
Friends: The recharge of David’s Psionic Field is equal to 125% of how long it is being recharged.
Defiance: When David is nearly beaten, his powers will use no charge for the next three minutes and twenty four seconds. If David is fighting because of something he deeply believes in, his powers will double in strength for the duration of the boost.
(1/+3/+1) (29/6/36/34/32) Nightmares:
Demons: David’s power attempts manipulate him into prioritising those he cares about over others. For example, a teammate or family member at minor risk over a building of civilians (strangers) at major risk.
Loss: Using the charge of his powers costs David focus in addition to the recharge. (see Lack). The charge used versus focus lost is equal to 60 to 1. For example, 1 hour of charge used costs 1 minute of focus. This applies collectively to all his powers with charge so using any of his powers adds to the amount of charge used.
Fatigue: This is the cause of the charge behind David’s primary powers.
Lack: David requires being able to focus for regularly in addition to other basic needs.
The Unknown: David doesn’t understand his Defiance, Love, Home or Friends. Basically he doesn’t understand any ways his power’s strength or charge is increased and he can’t use actively use these abilities to his advantage.
Name: Allison Brock/Arctic Fox
Theme: Fear when suffering Loss
Background: Allison was raised in southern England, generally having avoided metahumans. At the age of 17, she and her family (Mum, Dad and older brother) moved to America. Shortly after they moved, she and her brother were ambushed by armed criminals led by a supervillain when they were by themselves. They wanted their valuables and had very unsavoury ideas about what they were going to do with her. Her brother David defied their wishes and was prepared to fight them to protect his sister. They gunned him down which resulted in both of their manifestations even if their manifestations were separate events of separate triggers.
Appearance: Allison Brock is without doubt an Adonis with high level Physique. Her sleek, blonde hair goes down to her shoulders, but is tied back in pony tail. Her body is tall and slender despite her E cup breasts and equally large hind while her skin and face are both smooth and downright prefect. Despite her new beauty, Allison doesn’t actively show off her body, but neither tries to hide it as she wears a mixture of normal clothes, primarily long sleeved shirts, jeans and the occasional woolly sweater.

Name: Calvin McAllister/Grendel
Theme: Medieval Monster
Background: A Norse mythology fan, Calvin was on a drug induced high when he manifested and he quickly rose to the top of his gang. He was in charge of the criminals that mugged David and Allison Brock and gunned down David Brock. Despite having extremely strong powers, Grendel met his match in David Brock. While their defensive powers were stronger than the other’s offensive powers, his power boosts when protecting family allowed David to overwhelm Grendel while Allison and her copies of her brother wiped out the baselines with him, the majority of his gang. Grendel barely managed to escape the Brock siblings. Since then, he has been relatively laying low and plotting his revenge against them.
Appearance: A three metres tall, four armed monster with deformed features and body. On top of his grey leathery skin, he has scales and fur of varying sizes and lengths in addition to ugly claws and long, pointy ears. In each hand, he wields one of his greatswords. Grendel only wears a loose fitting set of chainmail, an unwieldy looking grey helmet and worn trousers.

AceOfSpade's character
Name: Alexis McKay/White Kitsune
Theme: Quiet paper folder
Background: Alexis is the kind of quiet guy who is there but almost nobody notice, he didn't really have any friend so he killed time with art and craft, he liked to use his hands to create things more than study, though he was able to maintain average grades with little effort. His parent were a bit dissapointed that he didn't do his best but they didn't bother him since he wasn't failing anything. Then he got into origami, going from the easy model to the hard ones in little time, he felt he had a knack for it so he started challenging himself. Then he got an idea, a very good idea for an origami, he could see it clearly in his head, but everytime he tried to give form to it he failed. He asked for help on online origami forum but was told that his design wasn't possible because some of the folds would need to break the laws of physics. He didn't listen and tried even harder, his grades started to suffer from it and his parent started to try and reason with him and then to prevent him from touching any paper but he refused to let go. He would smuggle paper sheets to keep trying. But even the most determined can only endure so many failures and he started to get desesperate. Then the Brock/Grendel fight made the local news as he was folding alone in his and he suddently realized he wasn't wrong, but the current understanding of physics is, the proof being the fact that it can't explain super powers and yet they exist. His origami could be made but some fold needed to go in more than the 3 usual spatial dimension, and from there it was just a matter of finding the right angle to use the other dimensions... what followed can only be described as a folding frenzy.
Appearance:Alexis is a bit tall for his age but very thin. He's got green eyes and dark blond air, there are hints of red in the beard he's trying to grow. As a civilian he favor dark and practical clothing. As White Kitsune he wear a paper fox mask styled after traditionnal japanese kitsune mask, a white down jacket with (synthetic) white fur on the collar and hood, white snow pant with a white leather belt and white snow boot. When he wear the jacket open a white wool knit pullover can be seen underneath. On his left arm is a strange paper vambrace, he also wear two paper spaulder of the same design and a belt pouch which appear to be also made of paper.
Physical: 3
Social: 3
Mental: 12
Metahuman Links: none
Manifestation: Standard manifestation
Rolled Power: 3
Physique: None
Power Tier:
5 Parangon power (origami based contriving, according to him he can fold the paper in more than 3 dimensions, allowing him to give a variety of effect to his creations, according to him it's all science and mathematics, nothing magic)
2 Exemplar power (External perception power: he can dampen the noise he make, making him inaudible or close to it)
2 Exemplar power (Internal perception power: enhanced sight and touch)
(17+1,5+1,5+5-10+75+15+15-5-25=90) (23&24)Mental Derangement: Derangement grade 2 Obsessive compulsive personality, he's always organizing things, perfectionnist and pay lot of attentions to little details which can lead him to forget about the bigger picture
Star: K
Dreams:
Riches: Dimensional messing with dimensions, especially when you find out you're not limited to spatial ones, allow to create little quantities of energy in safe ways. Paper batteries and lighters have a limited life but they are very, very, cheap.
Harmony: He can heterodyne normally, which is rare among contrivers
Freedom: He has the potential to initiate a swan song
Nightmare:
Lost woods: (Automatic contriver nightmare, no derangment penalty) When he fold he feel the glee of his first discoveries all over again and he feel the need to create something new and to challenge himself, which can be problematic when he need to do something he as already done previously or when he want something precise because if he's not careful he may end up with something else entirely, he may even end up with an origami with no special properties beyond the fact that it should be impossible to create
Fatigue: Calculating the extra dimensionnal folds is mentally draining, sometimes if he overdo himself he can't even do the simplest of them. In these case he often find it relaxing and energizing to do some normal origami, like paper cranes or paper planes.
White Kitsune's Contrivances
Different type of paper bombs, color coded for his convenience:
-Blue: Water paper bomb, pretty straightforward, it's just like an actual paper waterbomb except the special folds make it a lot larger on the inside, while preventing the extra weight to be felt. It can hold ten liter. Upon impact the folds are disturbed and the extra space canceled, forcing the ten liter to fit a far too small contenant, making it explode with a lot of force and covering everything nearby with water.
-White: Ice paper bomb, same base as the water paper bomb but a few fold done differently, when that one hit it doesn't just explode, it also drain the heat out of the released water, turning it instantly into a solid block of ice
-Yellow: Electricity paper bomb, not so much a bomb (it doesn't hold any water) as a thrown tazzer, before throwing it Alexis chance a fold, making sure he is wearing non conductive glove. The bomb will discharge into the first conductive surface it met, it produces enough electricity to stun, then it crumble into black ashes
-Red: Fire paper bomb, instead of water this bomb contain more paper, before it is thrown a fold is changed and the paper bomb start to heat, after a second it catch fire and burn for a little while, a lot less efficient than if it was filled with a flamable liquid but then it would be a little too efficient
Paper shield: It's a paper vambrace which fit over his bulky winter clothing, there is what look like a chrysanthemum on it. With little time the flower can be extended into a circular shield of up to 2 meters ( 6 foot 5 inches) diameter. The front present a serie of mountain and valley folds, it's about as solid as a half inch of steel. The mountain fold are used to redirect any thrust attack or projectile into the valley folds which are fractal, anything that goes in basically enter a huge and empty hammerspace. From behing it's possible to see there are peepholes so Alexis can still see his adversaries while being under cover. The shield is protected from humidity by a static field alimented by a paper battery, water is repelled by surfaces that have the same static charge, it's enough against rain and snow.
Paper Kitsune Mask: Nothing fancy, just something to protect his face and conceal his identity, it's resistance his about the same as the shield but without the fractal folds. It's also protected by static electricity. It's styled after traditionnal kistune mask.
Paper spaulders: Inspired by the samourai's sode, while they do provide a little protection their main fonction is to hold a reserve of A4 paper sheets in case he need to make some origami in the field. Like the rest static electricity protect it from water.
Paper belt pouch: Basically a paper bag of holding, bigger on the inside and lighter than it's content. Alexis uses it to store his paperbombs until he need them, everything inside the bag is in a separate pocket dimension, the direction of the gravity inside is constantly toward the bottom of the pouch and no momentum is felt, preventing the bombs from spilling if he has to lay down or jump or run...

Metahuman Relations: 1 Is a parent, 2 and 3 are older siblings who manifested. One had an overabundance of of power and went insane, the other had a broken, stunted power and went slightly less insane. Both are childlike and have a difficult time focusing on anything. All three powers are gadgeteer abilities, 1 spends it’s time taking care of 2 and 3 and making sure they don’t blow up the world or anything. 1’s spouse runs a company that sells the inventions. 2’s focus: biology. 3’s focus: weaponized genetic manipulation. 1’s focus: defense systems.
Background: Grew up in a loving household. When character was young however, the parent’s focus shifted to 2 and 3 and the character was mostly left to fend for itself. Conflicted personality, the character loves it’s family, but also resents them on some level. Kept isolated and alone from 2 and 3 so the character wouldn't get hurt. Parents never had much time for the character.
Manifestation type: 87 Roll- Near Death Manifestation.+1 Dream, +1 Nightmare, +75% DV

Character breaks in, makes his way past defenses. Gets attacked and nearly killed by 2 and 3’s monstrosities. Manifests just before the character is killed, but after severe injury. No one else is present, but the effects of 1, 2, and 3 are present and surrounding the character.

Your power is unformed, in its infancy. Reduce your Tier to Exemplar and your level to 1. You start out with 1 Dream and 1 Nightmare. At appropriate points of your character’s development, your power grows and grows. First the level grows, then it jumps up a Tier, and so on. If you survive long enough, challenge your power often and strongly enough, you can reach the very top, but you need greater and greater challenges to ascend further. Every time you rise a level, you get a dream and you have a 50-50 chance of gaining a nightmare, too; every time you jump from one Tier to the next you reroll against the new DV you have accumulated to determine if your Derangement Grade rises. Every time your power rises by a Tier, there is a 10% chance that it will become alive and sentient, much like the Quasar roll.

6 Roll: Power- Your power is just stronger than most. DV+5%
Nightmares(1)
23 Roll: Discord- Your power does not play well with others. It is all but impossible for you to heterodyne it with others, and just using your power around others may disrupt their own powers in minor ways. DV + 20%
26 Roll: A Fall-You lack control over your power. DV + 15%
Powerset: Paladin generates and manipulates a blue-white flame he thinks of as ‘purefire’. The fire is unusual because it does not affect normal matter. The purefire can only burn gadgets, contrivances (see Discord Nightmare, and the flames permanently damage them), and evil or corrupted things/people. The flames heal and bolster people who are good or morally upstanding, while inspiring fear in criminals. He can also manipulate the flames with extreme ease, directing it and shaping it with great skill (see Flying Dream), but cannot control the intensity of the purefire(see Fall Nightmare). Paladin is also an Adonis; tall, brown hair, well-muscled, handsome. Paladin wears a silver set of lightweight armor. Purefire protects Paladin from Perception/Control/Meta powers while in use.
Powerset(with Star Forge alteration: Level 3): The flames will permanently cause gadgets to glitch and contrivances to be less effective. The fear is a general sense of unease and worry, and the bolstering a sense of noticeable purpose and a slight sense of trustworthiness. Cannot heal anything more than major bruises and scratches. Flames singe, but burn things faster. Adonis ability gives good looks and health, with extreme peak human physical abilities. The purefire protects Paladin from several minor or one major Perception/Control/Meta powers while in use. Paladin no longer has control over his purefire's intensity and it burns/effects at maximum overdrive.

Derangement Grade: 7 Roll. 13 Roll. Derangement Grade 1. Paladin has an uncompromising attitude of hatred towards criminals and evil in general. He is willing to do whatever it takes to stop them, including killing or breaking the law if necessary (in his mind, he is just doing what is required to stop the greater evil).

Currently 19 years old.
Name: Brant Kraus/Beowulf
Theme: Versatile Warrior
Background: Brant Kraus is the former son of Grendel, having disowned him almost two years ago. Already disliking his father before he became Grendel, once his father became the monster he is now, Brant discarded the surname of his father and took on his mother’s maiden name. When Grendel returned home after his fight with a fight with a new local manifestation, he took out his rage on his son. That night, Brant was disfigured and beaten near to death. Left to die on the floor of their house by his father, Brant manifested the next morning after Grendel had gone to rally the surviving members of his gang. Ironically, despite nearly dying, it was once Brant realised he wasn’t going to die and he would never give up or surrender to his father that caused his manifestation. Once manifested, Brant left his father for good and swore revenge, no matter the cost. His manifestation gave him the ability to counter the powers of others, make himself a better warrior and the ability to make gadgets to counter the contrivances of his father. Since then, Brant has been hiding the shadows, awaiting his time to strike.

Name: David Brock
Theme: Defiance against your enemies
Background: David was raised in southern England, generally having avoided metahumans. At the age of 19, he and his family (Mum, Dad and younger sister) moved to America. Shortly after they moved, he and his sister were ambushed by armed criminals led by a supervillain when they were by themselves. They wanted their valuables and had very unsavoury ideas about what they were going to do with his sister. David defied their wishes and was prepared to fight them to protect this sister. They gunned him down.
Appearance: David Brock has a lean, but average build. No surprise given his lack of the Adonis power. He has choppy black hair, hard brown eyes and bland look over his face. David only wears protective clothing, both against the elements and against any attackers.

Home: David’s Psionic Field doesn’t lose charge when he is extending to those he deeply cares about as he deeply believes in doing your best to protect those you hold dear in even if means putting yourself in the way of whatever is threatening them.
Fragments: David can extend his powers to what he is touching at the expense of it being weaker and a quicker drain depending on the size of the object.
Flying: David can control where his Psionic Energy Blasts are projected from and how much power they have. He can also control what form they take if he has focus.
Friends: The recharge of David’s Psionic Field is equal to 125% of how long it is being recharged.
Defiance: When David is nearly beaten, his powers will use no charge for the next three minutes and twenty four seconds. If David is fighting because of something he deeply believes in, his powers will double in strength for the duration of the boost.
(1/+3/+1) (29/6/36/34/32) Nightmares:
Demons: David’s power attempts manipulate him into prioritising those he cares about over others. For example, a teammate or family member at minor risk over a building of civilians (strangers) at major risk.
Loss: Using the charge of his powers costs David focus in addition to the recharge. (see Lack). The charge used versus focus lost is equal to 60 to 1. For example, 1 hour of charge used costs 1 minute of focus. This applies collectively to all his powers with charge so using any of his powers adds to the amount of charge used.
Fatigue: This is the cause of the charge behind David’s primary powers.
Lack: David requires being able to focus for regularly in addition to other basic needs.
The Unknown: David doesn’t understand his Defiance, Love, Home or Friends. Basically he doesn’t understand any ways his power’s strength or charge is increased and he can’t use actively use these abilities to his advantage.
Name: Allison Brock/Arctic Fox
Theme: Fear when suffering Loss
Background: Allison was raised in southern England, generally having avoided metahumans. At the age of 17, she and her family (Mum, Dad and older brother) moved to America. Shortly after they moved, she and her brother were ambushed by armed criminals led by a supervillain when they were by themselves. They wanted their valuables and had very unsavoury ideas about what they were going to do with her. Her brother David defied their wishes and was prepared to fight them to protect his sister. They gunned him down which resulted in both of their manifestations even if their manifestations were separate events of separate triggers.
Appearance: Allison Brock is without doubt an Adonis with high level Physique. Her sleek, blonde hair goes down to her shoulders, but is tied back in pony tail. Her body is tall and slender despite her E cup breasts and equally large hind while her skin and face are both smooth and downright prefect. Despite her new beauty, Allison doesn’t actively show off her body, but neither tries to hide it as she wears a mixture of normal clothes, primarily long sleeved shirts, jeans and the occasional woolly sweater.

Name: Calvin McAllister/Grendel
Theme: Medieval Monster
Background: A Norse mythology fan, Calvin was on a drug induced high when he manifested and he quickly rose to the top of his gang. He was in charge of the criminals that mugged David and Allison Brock and gunned down David Brock. Despite having extremely strong powers, Grendel met his match in David Brock. While their defensive powers were stronger than the other’s offensive powers, his power boosts when protecting family allowed David to overwhelm Grendel while Allison and her copies of her brother wiped out the baselines with him, the majority of his gang. Grendel barely managed to escape the Brock siblings. Since then, he has been relatively laying low and plotting his revenge against them.
Appearance: A three metres tall, four armed monster with deformed features and body. On top of his grey leathery skin, he has scales and fur of varying sizes and lengths in addition to ugly claws and long, pointy ears. In each hand, he wields one of his greatswords. Grendel only wears a loose fitting set of chainmail, an unwieldy looking grey helmet and worn trousers.

AceOfSpade's character
Name: Alexis McKay/White Kitsune
Theme: Quiet paper folder
Background: Alexis is the kind of quiet guy who is there but almost nobody notice, he didn't really have any friend so he killed time with art and craft, he liked to use his hands to create things more than study, though he was able to maintain average grades with little effort. His parent were a bit dissapointed that he didn't do his best but they didn't bother him since he wasn't failing anything. Then he got into origami, going from the easy model to the hard ones in little time, he felt he had a knack for it so he started challenging himself. Then he got an idea, a very good idea for an origami, he could see it clearly in his head, but everytime he tried to give form to it he failed. He asked for help on online origami forum but was told that his design wasn't possible because some of the folds would need to break the laws of physics. He didn't listen and tried even harder, his grades started to suffer from it and his parent started to try and reason with him and then to prevent him from touching any paper but he refused to let go. He would smuggle paper sheets to keep trying. But even the most determined can only endure so many failures and he started to get desesperate. Then the Brock/Grendel fight made the local news as he was folding alone in his and he suddently realized he wasn't wrong, but the current understanding of physics is, the proof being the fact that it can't explain super powers and yet they exist. His origami could be made but some fold needed to go in more than the 3 usual spatial dimension, and from there it was just a matter of finding the right angle to use the other dimensions... what followed can only be described as a folding frenzy.
Appearance:Alexis is a bit tall for his age but very thin. He's got green eyes and dark blond air, there are hints of red in the beard he's trying to grow. As a civilian he favor dark and practical clothing. As White Kitsune he wear a paper fox mask styled after traditionnal japanese kitsune mask, a white down jacket with (synthetic) white fur on the collar and hood, white snow pant with a white leather belt and white snow boot. When he wear the jacket open a white wool knit pullover can be seen underneath. On his left arm is a strange paper vambrace, he also wear two paper spaulder of the same design and a belt pouch which appear to be also made of paper.

Manifestation: Standard manifestation
Rolled Power: 3
Physique: None
Power Tier:
5 Parangon power (origami based contriving, according to him he can fold the paper in more than 3 dimensions, allowing him to give a variety of effect to his creations, according to him it's all science and mathematics, nothing magic)
2 Exemplar power (External perception power: he can dampen the noise he make, making him inaudible or close to it)
2 Exemplar power (Internal perception power: enhanced sight and touch)
(17+1,5+1,5+5-10+75+15+15-5-25=90) (23&24)Mental Derangement: Derangement grade 2 Obsessive compulsive personality, he's always organizing things, perfectionnist and pay lot of attentions to little details which can lead him to forget about the bigger picture
Star: K
Dreams:
Riches: Dimensional messing with dimensions, especially when you find out you're not limited to spatial ones, allow to create little quantities of energy in safe ways. Paper batteries and lighters have a limited life but they are very, very, cheap.
Harmony: He can heterodyne normally, which is rare among contrivers
Freedom: He has the potential to initiate a swan song
Nightmare:
Lost woods: (Automatic contriver nightmare, no derangment penalty) When he fold he feel the glee of his first discoveries all over again and he feel the need to create something new and to challenge himself, which can be problematic when he need to do something he as already done previously or when he want something precise because if he's not careful he may end up with something else entirely, he may even end up with an origami with no special properties beyond the fact that it should be impossible to create
Fatigue: Calculating the extra dimensionnal folds is mentally draining, sometimes if he overdo himself he can't even do the simplest of them. In these case he often find it relaxing and energizing to do some normal origami, like paper cranes or paper planes.
White Kitsune's Contrivances
Different type of paper bombs, color coded for his convenience:
-Blue: Water paper bomb, pretty straightforward, it's just like an actual paper waterbomb except the special folds make it a lot larger on the inside, while preventing the extra weight to be felt. It can hold ten liter. Upon impact the folds are disturbed and the extra space canceled, forcing the ten liter to fit a far too small contenant, making it explode with a lot of force and covering everything nearby with water.
-White: Ice paper bomb, same base as the water paper bomb but a few fold done differently, when that one hit it doesn't just explode, it also drain the heat out of the released water, turning it instantly into a solid block of ice
-Yellow: Electricity paper bomb, not so much a bomb (it doesn't hold any water) as a thrown tazzer, before throwing it Alexis chance a fold, making sure he is wearing non conductive glove. The bomb will discharge into the first conductive surface it met, it produces enough electricity to stun, then it crumble into black ashes
-Red: Fire paper bomb, instead of water this bomb contain more paper, before it is thrown a fold is changed and the paper bomb start to heat, after a second it catch fire and burn for a little while, a lot less efficient than if it was filled with a flamable liquid but then it would be a little too efficient
Paper shield: It's a paper vambrace which fit over his bulky winter clothing, there is what look like a chrysanthemum on it. With little time the flower can be extended into a circular shield of up to 2 meters ( 6 foot 5 inches) diameter. The front present a serie of mountain and valley folds, it's about as solid as a half inch of steel. The mountain fold are used to redirect any thrust attack or projectile into the valley folds which are fractal, anything that goes in basically enter a huge and empty hammerspace. From behing it's possible to see there are peepholes so Alexis can still see his adversaries while being under cover. The shield is protected from humidity by a static field alimented by a paper battery, water is repelled by surfaces that have the same static charge, it's enough against rain and snow.
Paper Kitsune Mask: Nothing fancy, just something to protect his face and conceal his identity, it's resistance his about the same as the shield but without the fractal folds. It's also protected by static electricity. It's styled after traditionnal kistune mask.
Paper spaulders: Inspired by the samourai's sode, while they do provide a little protection their main fonction is to hold a reserve of A4 paper sheets in case he need to make some origami in the field. Like the rest static electricity protect it from water.
Paper belt pouch: Basically a paper bag of holding, bigger on the inside and lighter than it's content. Alexis uses it to store his paperbombs until he need them, everything inside the bag is in a separate pocket dimension, the direction of the gravity inside is constantly toward the bottom of the pouch and no momentum is felt, preventing the bombs from spilling if he has to lay down or jump or run...

Metahuman Relations: 1 Is a parent, 2 and 3 are older siblings who manifested. One had an overabundance of of power and went insane, the other had a broken, stunted power and went slightly less insane. Both are childlike and have a difficult time focusing on anything. All three powers are gadgeteer abilities, 1 spends it’s time taking care of 2 and 3 and making sure they don’t blow up the world or anything. 1’s spouse runs a company that sells the inventions. 2’s focus: biology. 3’s focus: weaponized genetic manipulation. 1’s focus: defense systems.
Background: Grew up in a loving household. When character was young however, the parent’s focus shifted to 2 and 3 and the character was mostly left to fend for itself. Conflicted personality, the character loves it’s family, but also resents them on some level. Kept isolated and alone from 2 and 3 so the character wouldn't get hurt. Parents never had much time for the character.

Your power is unformed, in its infancy. Reduce your Tier to Exemplar and your level to 1. You start out with 1 Dream and 1 Nightmare. At appropriate points of your character’s development, your power grows and grows. First the level grows, then it jumps up a Tier, and so on. If you survive long enough, challenge your power often and strongly enough, you can reach the very top, but you need greater and greater challenges to ascend further. Every time you rise a level, you get a dream and you have a 50-50 chance of gaining a nightmare, too; every time you jump from one Tier to the next you reroll against the new DV you have accumulated to determine if your Derangement Grade rises. Every time your power rises by a Tier, there is a 10% chance that it will become alive and sentient, much like the Quasar roll.

26 Roll: A Fall-You lack control over your power. DV + 15%
Powerset: Paladin generates and manipulates a blue-white flame he thinks of as ‘purefire’. The fire is unusual because it does not affect normal matter. The purefire can only burn gadgets, contrivances (see Discord Nightmare, and the flames permanently damage them), and evil or corrupted things/people. The flames heal and bolster people who are good or morally upstanding, while inspiring fear in criminals. He can also manipulate the flames with extreme ease, directing it and shaping it with great skill (see Flying Dream), but cannot control the intensity of the purefire(see Fall Nightmare). Paladin is also an Adonis; tall, brown hair, well-muscled, handsome. Paladin wears a silver set of lightweight armor. Purefire protects Paladin from Perception/Control/Meta powers while in use.
Powerset(with Star Forge alteration: Level 3): The flames will permanently cause gadgets to glitch and contrivances to be less effective. The fear is a general sense of unease and worry, and the bolstering a sense of noticeable purpose and a slight sense of trustworthiness. Cannot heal anything more than major bruises and scratches. Flames singe, but burn things faster. Adonis ability gives good looks and health, with extreme peak human physical abilities. The purefire protects Paladin from several minor or one major Perception/Control/Meta powers while in use. Paladin no longer has control over his purefire's intensity and it burns/effects at maximum overdrive.

Derangement Grade: 7 Roll. 13 Roll. Derangement Grade 1. Paladin has an uncompromising attitude of hatred towards criminals and evil in general. He is willing to do whatever it takes to stop them, including killing or breaking the law if necessary (in his mind, he is just doing what is required to stop the greater evil).

Name: Brant Kraus/Beowulf
Theme: Versatile Warrior
Background: Brant Kraus is the former son of Grendel, having disowned him almost two years ago. Already disliking his father before he became Grendel, once his father became the monster he is now, Brant discarded the surname of his father and took on his mother’s maiden name. When Grendel returned home after his fight with a fight with a new local manifestation, he took out his rage on his son. That night, Brant was disfigured and beaten near to death. Left to die on the floor of their house by his father, Brant manifested the next morning after Grendel had gone to rally the surviving members of his gang. Ironically, despite nearly dying, it was once Brant realised he wasn’t going to die and he would never give up or surrender to his father that caused his manifestation. Once manifested, Brant left his father for good and swore revenge, no matter the cost. His manifestation gave him the ability to counter the powers of others, make himself a better warrior and the ability to make gadgets to counter the contrivances of his father. Since then, Brant has been hiding the shadows, awaiting his time to strike.
