Subject: Dimensional Clash Redux: Call for heroes (The OOC)
A reboot of the old thread with a new storyline in mind and fresh eyes looking down at the project once more. This time I'm looking to try and get things running well and good, as well as run a tighter storyline while having more focus on the roleplay than before.
The Premise is that a mysterious force is calling forth the great champions and armies of the omniverse to engage in an epic war to end all wars across countless realities. They can be from anything, MLP, Homestuck, Warhammer 40k, Metroid, Transformers, Halo, Metal Gear, Real life (if you're hardcore like that), Half-life, Command and Conquer, XCOM, Star Wars, or anything you can imagine. Now obviously there's going to be a reasonable upper limit on the initial power levels of the characters you can bring in. However, as time goes on and the stakes get higher, existing characters will get stronger and you can bring in more potent new characters until we can finally fight the source of this conflict head on.
In this Role Play; you are going to pick a character; such as Ragnar Blackmane to use an example you are all almost certainly familiar with; they will be plucked from their home universe and dropped into one universe; which will be called the location; where everyone else will be; the Death Star will be our example. For example; Ragnar could be commanding his space wolves one second; and the next second he'll find himself in the Death Star with a bunch of other characters and some space wolves. The Location will be changed now and then to keep things fresh; and there will always be a portal back to the previous locations. To continue our example; After purging the heretics in the Death Star; Ragnar and his troops will suddenly find themselves in say; the Land of Oz; but there will be a portal back to the Death Star. The Location I choose will be kept secret; but you can PM me suggestions. This is primarily a Sandbox; but there will be a overreaching story line.
Rules
Spoiler:
1. No godmodding, such as controlling other people's characters. How much control you have over NPCs is decided on a plot importance basis.
2. Yes you can have a character from ANY UNIVERSE.
3. Your character will still retain his/her powers, but you can tone them up or down. Talk to me if you're wondering if your character is too strong/weak.
4. No autohitting
5. No instakills
6. No autododging (more commonly referred to as no-sells, this is when you avoid an attack by completely disregarding it in your post, though constantly avoiding/nullifying/blocking attacks and not taking any hits that you by all rights should hit and/or hurt you even if you write it out in your posts is not acceptable either.)
7. Post with proper grammar and spelling.
8. Break any of these rules and you get a warning, next time 1 page ban, next time you're out. This is subject to moderator, overseer, and game master discretion.
9. There is no set rule on character limit per player; but be sure you can manage them all.
11. There is no rule 10
12. Don't try to alter the personality of your character too much from the original version without proper character development
13. If you wish to take something like an imperial storm trooper from star wars and give him a name and a bio; I'll be fine with that.
14. Keep your post contents Mod acceptable. I'd rather not get this locked.
15. If you are going to take a real person and put him in this role play; he/she must have been notable enough to have an article on Wikipedia. Preferably you should use some badass soldier; as they'd have the best chance of surviving in this RPG.
16. You can control NPCs to some extent, but try to avoid things like your character easily killing someone important.
17. Please, do not beg me to make you a mod, that position is determined on merit. If you look good and responsible enough, I'll PM you asking if you want to become a mod.
18. Unless some form of locomotive ability is one of your character's powers, don't be everywhere at once.
19. There is no character limit per se, but try not to make more characters than you can keep track of.
20. Gaming abstraction like experience levels, statistics, energy/health pickups, and rather nonsensical dropped currency (like gold coins in neverwinter nights) will exist in this game to some extent, but they can only be utilized by the character from the universe that particular abstraction is from. Thus only Samus can pick up Chozo suit missile ammunition from slain foes for example. This rule can be broken if one can make a reasonable case for it, such as if a Techmarine modified his suit to use Chozo technology (heresy!), but otherwise will allow characters to make more use of their own abilities while keeping them more unique.
21. If someone doesn't want to engage in a player vs player fight with you OOC, don't force it on them.
22. If you disappear for a week, your characters become up for grabs. If you return; whoever has taken control of your character must explain what they have done with said character and return it to the original owner should they wish it back.

Google is your friend; if you don't know anything about a character; look him up. Chances are his universe even has it's own wiki (or three.)
There will be an ultimate story-arc
Post Factoids about the universe your character is from in the OOC thread; It will help people familiarize themselves with each others characters.
I recommend a three line minimum post-length if at all possible.
A uselessly weak character is just as bad as a stupidly powerful one.
Have Fun; being in a sour mood ruins it for everyone else.
I will begin once I have five participators.
Each location may or may not have a "boss" fight. It all depends on what I feel is most appropriate.

Subject: Re:Dimensional Clash Redux: Call for heroes (The OOC)
Hmmm. What character to use... well, I could use one of the leads from the Halo/Mass Effect cross over I pen on/off. Eh, what the hell. She is an Asari and was alive during the Mass Effect trilogy era so I'll use that incarnation so I don't have to explain the stupid bs I wrote.
Name: Cyree
Height: 6' 3"
Sex: "Female" (From Monogendered race but displays prominent feminine qualities)
Weight: 230 lbs
Description:
Former Eclipse Commando, veteran of the Reaper Conflict and current Asari Republics operative Cyree is a skilled and experienced soldier. She has seen the worst that the galaxy has to offer and has shot it to pieces with well placed fire from her favored Mattock Rifle. Her skin is a light blue color. It is unblemished for the most part but her face has a scar running across the side of her lips. Her face can be described as fair, and often is, but beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. Cyree's exact figure is hard to determine given that she wears body armor most of the time but she is noticeably bulkier than other Asari. Her eyes are also a pale blue color but much more light than her skin. They would seem grey to all but the closest inspector.
Her voice is mostly typical for her race. Nothing really stands out about it except that, she would have, to humans, a slightly Russian accent as her translator attributes such an accent to the particular dialect of her native language that she speaks. The armor she wears is a slate grey color with the symbol of the Asari Republics embossed on the right of her breastplate in black. It lacks any lights or glowing parts typical of many suits of armor so that she isn't as easy to spot. If you could assign rough categories for how well armor protects you her suit would be of a medium rating. It is a good balance of protection versus flexibility. Her belt and chest plate have a myriad of pouches on them to hold spare ammunition, food supplies and whatever it is that she might need to assist in her mission. On her left arm is a newer model of the Omni-tool that she puts to good use. Cyree's helmet is either on her head or clipped to her belt. Never underestimate the protective value of a helmet.
Universe: Mass Effect
Abilities:
Cyree is a good shot, tough and can lift a bit of weight. However, her claim to fame so to speak is her considerable biotic abilities. She isn't the most powerful Biotic in the galaxy by any standard but certainly outclasses your typical biotic by a good mile. A glass cannon would be an apt description for Cyree. At least in comparison to say a Space Marine.
Equipment:
M-96 Mattock
M-6 Carnifex
Medium Body Armor
Thermal Clips
Bio:
Cyree was born on one of the several worlds that make up the Asari Republics in 1929. She was born to a Turian/Asari couple that raised her well enough. But her curious nature, already proficient biotic powers and tendency to make friends with the "Wrong Crowd" led her to join the Mercenary group known as Eclipse later on in her adult life. During her time in Eclipse she turned from a wide eyed youth into a hardened killer. She rose through the ranks about 2180s she was a Commando officer. However, the Reaper Crisis and how her people were being killed during the war made her reconsider her life. It was when Thessia was attacked that she defected from Eclipse to the Republics. She quickly became a Commando once in their ranks though she joined under a different name to avoid being sent to prison for her crimes. Her comrades knew her as "Shailem. Though she didn't contribute much to the overall conflict given her relatively late entry into the war she did conduct a few operations against the Reapers.

Subject: Dimensional Clash Redux: Call for heroes (The OOC)
Name: Arfiel Estas
Sex (if any): Male
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 8 Stone
Description/Picture: Arfiel's young, and it shows on his face; he's yet to gain any scars, and still wears a smile in most circumstances. His hair is grey, but he has enough so as to offput the impression of age. He wears a suit of AV1.052 armour, segmented slide-plate which offers a full tactical suite as well as several modification slots and local energy shielding. His armour is a dark grey with red highlights, with green helm lenses.
Universe: Terms of Service (Custom universe)
Overall power summary: More powerful than a Halo Spartan, less so than a Space Marine (So, essentially, a Guard Stormtrooper +1), with some psychic powers.
Gear: Psyblade (think force weapon), Medium Cal Pistol, AV armour with expansive shielding (a personal shield that can expand up to a 5 meter radius, designed to protect a five man squad), and a healing unit (automated physical repair unit which can heal anything up to a fracture, given enough time.) Additional Mod Units can be acquired, though they would have to replace a current unit to be used. For instance, Arfiel would have to lose either the shield or the Healing Unit to pick up another mod.
Bio: Arfiel is a psychic, and a member of the advanced PsyMED (Psychic Military Enhancement Division). He was trained in the ADV programme from a young age, seperated from his parents at young age and assigned to surrogate training parents. These moulded him to be more receptive to the training he would later undergo, while hammering home an unquestioning devotion to Humanity's current ruler, Lord Swain. This training has made him an elite soldier in the defence of humanity, and although he is just starting out as a professional soldier, Arfiel already shows promise.
Nevertheless, one always has questions about their leaders...
Alignment: Neutral Good.
Name: Rynn Sera
Sex (if any): Female
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 8 stone.
Description/Picture: Rynn is also quite young, having finished training at the same time as Arfiel, with little to show for it. Despite her size she is deceptively strong, but also lithe and nimble when it is needed. In her line of work, that's almost always. She has short, faded brown hair, which parts at the fringe, fair skin and sharp blue eyes. Her armour is roughly similar to Arfiel's, but has a single gold mark on the top right corner of her visor, indicating she was a member of Ellesion, a hunter of enemy champions.
Universe: Terms of Service (Custom Universe)
Abilities: Rynn is a duellist trained to bring down the most skilled and largest enemies the ADV encounters. She is more physically able than most, possessing a greater degree of strength and dexterity than more common ADV troops. Her armour contains a Reforming shield, which adjusts to protect more vulnerable areas as she fights, and a healing unit.
Gear: Energised Blade (Think power weapon), Medium cal pistol, AV1.072 armour, Reforming Shield and Healing unit.
Bio: Similarly to other ADV agents, Rynn was removed from her natural parents and raised by surrogates. However, she received unnecessarily blunt and harsh treatment, the innocent curiosity of a young child brutally forced away by apathetic parents until she eventually found their chiding criticism to be dull and empty, abandoning any care for them that remained. During her time in training with the ADV, she reformed herself into a stronger, smarter person. While she feels resent towards her false-parent's poor treatment of her, she recognises the positive effects of it - though she never did buy into just how "great" Lord Swain was...

This fits perfectly well then. Uncorrupted Ashiraya should do for early on, but once things scale right to hell I can bring in corrupted Ashiraya- who is literally at the point where she would oneshot her former incarnation who in turn can't realistically harm her future self.

Subject: Re:Dimensional Clash Redux: Call for heroes (The OOC)
I'm still interested in this. Seems like I had the last post in the last IC section. >_< Anyways, character time again:
Name: Gilgamesh
Sex: Male
Height: 182 cm. (6 ft)
Weight: 68 kg
Description/Picture:
Out of armor
In armor
Universe: Fate/Extra (Fate/Stay Night)
Abilities: As a Servant summoned by the Holy Grail, he possesses strength, endurance, and agility far beyond those of most people. Mundane weapons with no magical power whatsoever would struggle to harm him. He is well-balanced in terms of physical statistics compared to other heroes and he can dematerialize his physical body if he wishes. His true strength comes from the Gate of Babylon, his Noble Phantasm.
Connecting the space of reality to his ancient vault, Gilgamesh can use whatever treasures he owned in various situations. The items can be summoned anywhere either directly into his hands or anywhere in the direct vicinity. Weapons range from holy swords, legendary spears, and various other weapons that acted as prototypes of weapons from other cultures that lived long after his kingdom fell. Other items include fine wines, drinking cups, an ancient flying machine with its accompanying weapons and even things he doesn't remember. That within are not merely riches, but his collection is the very "origins of human wisdom."
That which is missing from the vault would be items produced with completely new concepts by a new human race, and items produced with extraterrestrial intelligence and technology. He has above average magic resistance, bolstered by the treasures of his vault and with his personal skill of Golden Rule, monetary problems are completely unknown to him.
Bio: Gilgamesh is the great half-god, half-human king born from the union between the King of Uruk, Lugalbanda, and goddess Rimat-Ninsun. He ruled the Sumerian city-state of Uruk, the capital city of ancient Mesopotamia in the B.C. era. He was an ultimate, transcendent being so divine as to be two thirds god and one third human, and no others in the world could match him. He was a despot possessing high divinity who believed he was invincible. He is not merely a legend, and is said to have actually existed and ruled during the Sumer Dynasty five thousand years ago. He was the King of Heroes who possessed all things in the world, whose tale is recorded in mankind's oldest epic poem, the Epic of Gilgamesh which portrays Gilgamesh as a hero, destined to be king and achieve great feats, who is driven to meet his destiny, facing challenges together with his best friend Enkidu.
His title, King of Heroes, is not meant to call him a king who is a hero, but instead implies that he is the king over all heroes. He is mankind's oldest hero, the origin of all myths and model on which heroes are based, so his story is copied within the mythologies of all the countries of the world. The heroes of various myths are derived from his legend, so his Gate of Babylon possesses all of their Noble Phantasms.
Born with a body that was of the highest grade by mortal standards and knowledge reaching truth, Gilgamesh was born, designed, as king and the Keystone of Heaven between the rising humans and the fading gods. He was sent to ensure the humans and bind the earth slowly leaving the Age of Gods. He was a being embodying the two life sets of life forms, with the blood of those who had ruled and the blood of those who would rule from thereon. He was to be the ultimate neutral party able to discern their respective failings, adjudicating from their respective positions. During his childhood, he loved the gods instead of humanity, but the gods created Enkidu at that time to punish the arrogant king.
The reason was simply that he had been born with the conclusion already drawn, existing independently as a being neither fully divine or human. He acquired the characteristics of both, so his field of vision reached even past what the gods were able to comprehend. His overwhelming power bred overwhelming isolation, but his strength of self kept him from abandoning his kingship or fleeing from the mission imposed upon him. Through revering the gods and loving humanity, he decided to follow the path to its conclusion by deposing the gods and loathing humanity.
Gilgamesh was born as a guardian of humanity, so it is his duty to lay the foundations for the future civilization of the planet. He does not view sheltering as his way of guardianship, but instead a harsh form resembling the north wind. He is the adjudicator of humanity who is an observer and sentencer at his core, punition personified and uncolored by human values. He lives by the ideal that later became Code of Ur-Nammu and Code of Hammurabi, that it is law for humans to prosecute humans. He had been brought forth by the gods to secure humanity for them, but he did not fulfill his role. He considered his own desires first, and he controlled the kingdom as a person. He rejected the gods as something from a past age, telling them that he will obey and respect them and at the same time telling them to be destroyed. He believed they lost their positions through their own actions the moment the brought him forth into the world
Alignment: Chaotic Good. Despite his colossal arrogance and seeming disregard of lives around him, he doesn't want to destroy humanity. He simply wants to weed out the unworthy. The consumerist culture of the era he was summoned in had a profoundly negative impact on his overall outlook though other eras may mellow him out somewhat. He may be an arrogant jerk, but his purpose is firm.

Sex: N/A; Male Personality.
Height: 6 meters
Weight: 6 metric tons.
Description/Picture: Universe: Warhammer 40,000.
Abillities: Extremely Strong; Extremely Durable; Master Strategist; Master Tactician; Master Combatant; Extremely intelligent; Extremely fast, Psyker.
Bio: (snipped from the lexicanum; which itself was snipped from the 5th Edition Tyranid codex): The Swarmlord is a legendary Tyranid creature created by the Hive Mind with the purpose of out-thinking the enemy and developing new strategies when standard Tyranid strategies of physical and biological adaption fail. It has destroyed empires and driven civilisations to extinction, and now it is the foremost Tyranid threat to the Galaxy and the Imperium. The title Swarmlord is its designation given by the Imperium, but it has been known by many other names including the Tyrantlord of the Hive Mind, the Herald of Great Devourer, and the Destroyer of the Kha'la Empire.
It is the pinnacle of the evolution of the Hive Tyrant bioform. The Swarmlord is essentially immortal, like a Hive Tyrant, as once killed it is reborn by the Hive Mind with the exact same experiences, character and knowledge, in essence becoming stronger than its predecessor every time because of its new experience. But unlike a Hive Tyrant, the reincarnation of the Swarmlord appears to be a stress induced response that is triggered only when conventional strategies of the Hive Mind fail and greater resourcefulness and tactics are needed. To this end, the Swarmlord possess more autonomy from the Hive Mind than any other Tyranid creature, and its connection with the Hive Mind is so strong it can emerge amongst any Hive Fleet, transcending any physical limitations separating the different Fleets. The Swarmlord has aeons of battle experience and bloodshed to draw upon. Infact, it is as old as the Tyranid race itself.
As weapons the Swarmlord wields four bone sabres, crackling with disruptive power, that are capable of slicing through adamantium and force fields as if they were nothing. They differ from commonly seen Tyranid Boneswords in that each sabre has a crystalline growth, not indigenous to the galaxy, at its core that partially protrudes through the blade's serrated surface.

Abilities: Extreme durability, Firepower, Leadership ability, and Strength, Brutally Cunning and Intelligent, Flight, Can transform into a tank.
Bio: Once the Lord High Protector of Cybertron and the "brother" of the science division leader Optimus Prime, Megatron is vicious, extremely powerful, single-minded in his goals, straight-forward and brutally direct. He is all "blunt force" in contrast to Starscream's penchant for deceit and trickery. On the downside, Megatron tends to become so obsessed with the object of his desires that he can ignore "secondary" matters, glaring flaws in his plans (otherwise, he likely wouldn't have melted into ice-cold arctic water after being white hot from falling through Earth's atmosphere, and spent ten-thousand years as a popsicle), and even crippling injuries in pursuit of the coveted item. Trying to talk Megatron out of blindly going for his goals is useless. He will risk his world, his troops, and even his own spark to achieve his goals; these things do not matter to Megatron. Even the destruction of Optimus Prime and the Autobots is a secondary concern. In Megatron's cerebral processor, all that has become important are the whims of his master and, by extension, the AllSpark.
While some merely dislike or disregard humans, Megatron feels a violent hatred towards them and views them as only slightly above bacteria, a feeling exacerbated by spending decades as their prisoner. Even if there was no AllSpark, it's not hard to imagine that Megatron would have come to this planet anyway, just to cleanse one more world of its organic infection.

Weight (you can approximate): 140 pounds
Description/Picture: http://www.wreckamovie.com/system/shot_medias/0000/2542/kroenen.jpg Universe: Hellboy (Movies)
Abilities: Almost impossible to kill (He apparently views being impaled as more of an inconvenience than anything else), Very flexible, Extremely skilled with wrist blades, Very quick and agile, Superhumanly strong, Feels no pain.
Bio: Karl Ruprecht Kroenen was born in Munich, Germany in 1897. A musical prodigy with angelic features and blonde hair, young Kroenen toured the capitals of Europe singing opera until his voice deepened with the onset of puberty, thereby ending his career. From a very early age, he demonstrated symptoms of masochism, whipping himself with a fresh branch of oak each day, and finding pleasure in the pain.
As a teenager, he loathed his awkwardness and developed an extreme form of body dysmorphic disorder (termed "surgical addiction" in the film). In his obsession with physical perfection, he conducted brutal experiments on his own body, including surgically removing his own eyelids, lips, and his toe- and finger nails. He also designed a tight-fitting gas mask to filter out germs, which he wore almost permanently.
He also became quite adept with mechanical devices, believing that fusing mechanical constructs with living bodies would help create perfection. One of his early inventions was a clockwork nightingale that sang a Mozart aria perfectly.
Karl Ruprecht Kroenen as seen in the first Hellboy film
In 1930, he met the resurrected Rasputin for the first time. Obsessed with purity, Kroenen quickly became Rasputin’s most loyal disciple. He subsequently joined the Nazi Party, and rose quickly through the ranks, joining the Schutzstaffel in 1933 and achieving the rank of Obersturmbannführer (Lieutenant Colonel). He was awarded the Iron Cross for services to the Third SPORE, including a tour of duty as commandant of SPORE concentration camp, where he served with distinction. Kroenen became head of the Thule Society, a group of German aristocrats obsessed with the occult. He helped them to spearhead Project Ragna Rok, engineering the portal generator that would conjure the Scarlet Beast, Hellboy, in October 1944.
A masterful fencer, he also became renowned for his swordsmanship and created his own signature swords.
When Allied Forces stormed the island off the coast of Scotland where Project Ragna Rok took place, Kroenen killed several of the American soldiers attacking the base, but was distracted by a grenade thrown under the portal device by a young Professor Trevor Bruttenholm. Kroenen tried to retrieve the grenade, but his left hand was blown off, and a length of concrete reinforcing rod (or rebar) impaled him through the chest, severing his spine. Shortly thereafter, he disappeared.
After his disappearance, in 1956, an unmarked grave in Romania was found. Dental records identified the remains as those of Kroenen.
However, Kroenen reappeared in 2004. Thanks to the inexplicable powers of science and black magic, Kroenen "repaired" himself with a prosthetic mechanical hand, a steel rod replacing the broken part of his spine, and a clockwork heart operated by a wind-up key implanted in his chest. By cranking the key, he was able to increase his speed and reflexes. After long decades, the blood in his veins dried up completely, leaving only dust, and rendering him virtually invulnerable to gunshot wounds. He could also turn the key to "switch off" his body (literally), remaining in a dormant state and appearing dead, until he was reanimated.

Name: Cyree
Height: 6' 3"
Sex: "Female" (From Monogendered race but displays prominent feminine qualities)
Weight: 230 lbs
Description:
Former Eclipse Commando, veteran of the Reaper Conflict and current Asari Republics operative Cyree is a skilled and experienced soldier. She has seen the worst that the galaxy has to offer and has shot it to pieces with well placed fire from her favored Mattock Rifle. Her skin is a light blue color. It is unblemished for the most part but her face has a scar running across the side of her lips. Her face can be described as fair, and often is, but beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. Cyree's exact figure is hard to determine given that she wears body armor most of the time but she is noticeably bulkier than other Asari. Her eyes are also a pale blue color but much more light than her skin. They would seem grey to all but the closest inspector.
Her voice is mostly typical for her race. Nothing really stands out about it except that, she would have, to humans, a slightly Russian accent as her translator attributes such an accent to the particular dialect of her native language that she speaks. The armor she wears is a slate grey color with the symbol of the Asari Republics embossed on the right of her breastplate in black. It lacks any lights or glowing parts typical of many suits of armor so that she isn't as easy to spot. If you could assign rough categories for how well armor protects you her suit would be of a medium rating. It is a good balance of protection versus flexibility. Her belt and chest plate have a myriad of pouches on them to hold spare ammunition, food supplies and whatever it is that she might need to assist in her mission. On her left arm is a newer model of the Omni-tool that she puts to good use. Cyree's helmet is either on her head or clipped to her belt. Never underestimate the protective value of a helmet.
Universe: Mass Effect
Abilities:
Cyree is a good shot, tough and can lift a bit of weight. However, her claim to fame so to speak is her considerable biotic abilities. She isn't the most powerful Biotic in the galaxy by any standard but certainly outclasses your typical biotic by a good mile. A glass cannon would be an apt description for Cyree. At least in comparison to say a Space Marine.
Equipment:
M-96 Mattock
M-6 Carnifex
Medium Body Armor
Thermal Clips
Bio:
Cyree was born on one of the several worlds that make up the Asari Republics in 1929. She was born to a Turian/Asari couple that raised her well enough. But her curious nature, already proficient biotic powers and tendency to make friends with the "Wrong Crowd" led her to join the Mercenary group known as Eclipse later on in her adult life. During her time in Eclipse she turned from a wide eyed youth into a hardened killer. She rose through the ranks about 2180s she was a Commando officer. However, the Reaper Crisis and how her people were being killed during the war made her reconsider her life. It was when Thessia was attacked that she defected from Eclipse to the Republics. She quickly became a Commando once in their ranks though she joined under a different name to avoid being sent to prison for her crimes. Her comrades knew her as "Shailem. Though she didn't contribute much to the overall conflict given her relatively late entry into the war she did conduct a few operations against the Reapers.

Universe: Terms of Service (Custom universe)
Overall power summary: More powerful than a Halo Spartan, less so than a Space Marine (So, essentially, a Guard Stormtrooper +1), with some psychic powers.
Gear: Psyblade (think force weapon), Medium Cal Pistol, AV armour with expansive shielding (a personal shield that can expand up to a 5 meter radius, designed to protect a five man squad), and a healing unit (automated physical repair unit which can heal anything up to a fracture, given enough time.) Additional Mod Units can be acquired, though they would have to replace a current unit to be used. For instance, Arfiel would have to lose either the shield or the Healing Unit to pick up another mod.
Bio: Arfiel is a psychic, and a member of the advanced PsyMED (Psychic Military Enhancement Division). He was trained in the ADV programme from a young age, seperated from his parents at young age and assigned to surrogate training parents. These moulded him to be more receptive to the training he would later undergo, while hammering home an unquestioning devotion to Humanity's current ruler, Lord Swain. This training has made him an elite soldier in the defence of humanity, and although he is just starting out as a professional soldier, Arfiel already shows promise.
Nevertheless, one always has questions about their leaders...

She has short, faded brown hair, which parts at the fringe, fair skin and sharp blue eyes. Her armour is roughly similar to Arfiel's, but has a single gold mark on the top right corner of her visor, indicating she was a member of Ellesion, a hunter of enemy champions.

Bio: Similarly to other ADV agents, Rynn was removed from her natural parents and raised by surrogates. However, she received unnecessarily blunt and harsh treatment, the innocent curiosity of a young child brutally forced away by apathetic parents until she eventually found their chiding criticism to be dull and empty, abandoning any care for them that remained. During her time in training with the ADV, she reformed herself into a stronger, smarter person. While she feels resent towards her false-parent's poor treatment of her, she recognises the positive effects of it - though she never did buy into just how "great" Lord Swain was...

Bio: See 'Background' section of this page. http://www.argentarchives.org/node/109841 The Ashiraya that is going to be used in this RP is pre-Black Queen, far weaker and less corrupted than her later incarnation but still a capable combatant. In the same way, her weapon is unfinished and but a shadow of its future potential, yet it remains a very deadly weapon indeed.

Name: Gilgamesh
Sex: Male
Height: 182 cm. (6 ft)
Weight: 68 kg
Description/Picture:
Out of armor
In armor
Universe: Fate/Extra (Fate/Stay Night)
Abilities: As a Servant summoned by the Holy Grail, he possesses strength, endurance, and agility far beyond those of most people. Mundane weapons with no magical power whatsoever would struggle to harm him. He is well-balanced in terms of physical statistics compared to other heroes and he can dematerialize his physical body if he wishes. His true strength comes from the Gate of Babylon, his Noble Phantasm.
Connecting the space of reality to his ancient vault, Gilgamesh can use whatever treasures he owned in various situations. The items can be summoned anywhere either directly into his hands or anywhere in the direct vicinity. Weapons range from holy swords, legendary spears, and various other weapons that acted as prototypes of weapons from other cultures that lived long after his kingdom fell. Other items include fine wines, drinking cups, an ancient flying machine with its accompanying weapons and even things he doesn't remember. That within are not merely riches, but his collection is the very "origins of human wisdom."
That which is missing from the vault would be items produced with completely new concepts by a new human race, and items produced with extraterrestrial intelligence and technology. He has above average magic resistance, bolstered by the treasures of his vault and with his personal skill of Golden Rule, monetary problems are completely unknown to him.
Bio: Gilgamesh is the great half-god, half-human king born from the union between the King of Uruk, Lugalbanda, and goddess Rimat-Ninsun. He ruled the Sumerian city-state of Uruk, the capital city of ancient Mesopotamia in the B.C. era. He was an ultimate, transcendent being so divine as to be two thirds god and one third human, and no others in the world could match him. He was a despot possessing high divinity who believed he was invincible. He is not merely a legend, and is said to have actually existed and ruled during the Sumer Dynasty five thousand years ago. He was the King of Heroes who possessed all things in the world, whose tale is recorded in mankind's oldest epic poem, the Epic of Gilgamesh which portrays Gilgamesh as a hero, destined to be king and achieve great feats, who is driven to meet his destiny, facing challenges together with his best friend Enkidu.
His title, King of Heroes, is not meant to call him a king who is a hero, but instead implies that he is the king over all heroes. He is mankind's oldest hero, the origin of all myths and model on which heroes are based, so his story is copied within the mythologies of all the countries of the world. The heroes of various myths are derived from his legend, so his Gate of Babylon possesses all of their Noble Phantasms.
Born with a body that was of the highest grade by mortal standards and knowledge reaching truth, Gilgamesh was born, designed, as king and the Keystone of Heaven between the rising humans and the fading gods. He was sent to ensure the humans and bind the earth slowly leaving the Age of Gods. He was a being embodying the two life sets of life forms, with the blood of those who had ruled and the blood of those who would rule from thereon. He was to be the ultimate neutral party able to discern their respective failings, adjudicating from their respective positions. During his childhood, he loved the gods instead of humanity, but the gods created Enkidu at that time to punish the arrogant king.
The reason was simply that he had been born with the conclusion already drawn, existing independently as a being neither fully divine or human. He acquired the characteristics of both, so his field of vision reached even past what the gods were able to comprehend. His overwhelming power bred overwhelming isolation, but his strength of self kept him from abandoning his kingship or fleeing from the mission imposed upon him. Through revering the gods and loving humanity, he decided to follow the path to its conclusion by deposing the gods and loathing humanity.
Gilgamesh was born as a guardian of humanity, so it is his duty to lay the foundations for the future civilization of the planet. He does not view sheltering as his way of guardianship, but instead a harsh form resembling the north wind. He is the adjudicator of humanity who is an observer and sentencer at his core, punition personified and uncolored by human values. He lives by the ideal that later became Code of Ur-Nammu and Code of Hammurabi, that it is law for humans to prosecute humans. He had been brought forth by the gods to secure humanity for them, but he did not fulfill his role. He considered his own desires first, and he controlled the kingdom as a person. He rejected the gods as something from a past age, telling them that he will obey and respect them and at the same time telling them to be destroyed. He believed they lost their positions through their own actions the moment the brought him forth into the world
Alignment: Chaotic Good. Despite his colossal arrogance and seeming disregard of lives around him, he doesn't want to destroy humanity. He simply wants to weed out the unworthy. The consumerist culture of the era he was summoned in had a profoundly negative impact on his overall outlook though other eras may mellow him out somewhat. He may be an arrogant jerk, but his purpose is firm.
Bio: An outcast warlock, Id'rael was seperated from his craftworld during the 13th Black Crusade following the misreading of the runes by his seers. As a result, he has sworn to never return to his place of origin, and instead walk the Path of the Outcast, which has vastly improved his skill in combat.
Abilities: Extremely skilled in combat, command of plagues but can only channel them at short range, unnatural resilience between Chaos armor and Nurgle's continuous blessings, immunity to foreign disease and resistance to poison, rides fierce daemonic mount whose sickly appearance hides its true strength
Bio: Lord Plagueblade, having discarded his mortal name a long time ago, exists only to be Nurgle's ultimate champion. Though he has gathered warbands and he has fought many battles throughout his 300+ year existence, he now travels alone with only his daemonic steed and the blessing of Nurgle. His goal: spread the influence of Nurgle and leave the worlds with nothing but decay and nihility. His filthy, plague-ridden scythe readied, he is prepared for any and all challenges.
Alignment: Chaotic Evil

Name: Athrignan the Putrid
Sex:Yes please Male
Height: 6'3", appears to be smaller due to walking around bent over.
Weight: 59kg, without armor. Quite some parts have rotten away!
Description/Picture: Le link Universe: Warcraft
Abilities: Undeath (needs not to eat, sleep, rest, inhale air etc. Basically: see Ashiraya's app, as I don't want to copy it ), cannibalism (able to 'heal' himself by eating the flesh of those recently slain), Will of the Forsaken (able to break free from anything that'd impair his movement and the like through magic (or space-magic! )
Bio: Athrignan the Putrid was born in the Kingdom of Lordaeron to a common farmer's family. He grew up in the Tirisfal Glades, near the settlement of Brill. That was until the betrayel of Prince Arthas, former paladin turned Death Knight, in service of Ner'zhul, the Lich King. The traitor ravaged the Kingdom, and unleashed the plague. Athrignan tried, to no avail, to defend his home, but fell against the undead hordes made of the former residents of the Glades.
For eight long years, Athrignan was dead, buried by those of his family still alive near Deathknell. He rose, and, confused, attempted to return to his family. Instead of being embraced, he found himself hunted out of the house by people he could no longer understand. He returned to Deathknell, and slowly learned of the events that had happened in the years he was dead. Bitter and enraged, thirsting for vengeance, he fitted right into the Forsaken masses. Fulfilling errants for the resident Shadow Priest, he soon was found to be of use to the Forsajen, travelling to Brill and eventually the Undercity. He pledged his unlife in service of the Forsaken and their Banshee Queen, Sylvanas Windrunner, who broke free from Arthas' grasp, with the first of the Forsaken.
Athrignan fought long against the Lich King's Undead Scourge in the Plaguelands, and stormed the Scarlet Monestary. Later, he was sent north, to Northrend: the hour of vengeance against the wayward prince was at hand. Athrignan and his cadre of Forsaken Deathguard were sent across the ocean, as part of the Hand of Vengeance, to aid the Royal Apothecary Society and a certain Putress...

My apologies for the delay but I got into trouble for a particularly vitriolic anti-GW rant.
