The Precipice

The Story:

It existed far beyond the reach of our comprehension. Perhaps it had always been there, biding it's time, lying in wait. Or maybe it was recently born, and sought some inherent purpose in it's new existence. Whichever the case, it doesn't matter. The being that was christened 'Elagabalus' had reached into the world of man that night, December twenty-ninth, in the year Two-thousand and two. It was unnoticed at first, a few tremors were felt, and perhaps a slight uneasiness could be sensed, but nothing major had been witnessed. As time passed, however, this fading ambivalence soon shifted, horrible monsters, desecrations of the natural order soon appeared sporadically and wiped out large numbers of the populace with such an unprecedented rapidity, the people of the world soon lost hope in their convictions, but, then something changed. Some people were granted, or born with special abilities that set them apart from each-other it was an uncommon, even rare occurrence, but these individuals had the ability to combat the Demons and fiends that spawned. Hope soon shined in the twilight of man, and what was left of the world's governments came together and formed an organization known as the Breach Apprehension Regulation Regional Interference Eradicating Resurgence, or B.A.R.R.I.E.R. Those who could fight were either offered deals they couldn't refuse, or snatched from their homes. Some were allowed more freedoms, while others were re-programmed to be the "Perfect instruments of salvation". That is where you all come in, through some manner, you and your special talents have been placed into the service of B.A.R.R.I.E.R. and as a member of the Special Forces Meta-Human Fiend Combat Squad you will have to fight not only for yourselves, but for the sake of the entire world. Today is March seventh, 2020, how will you serve your world?

Example sheet:

EDIT: put in a bit more history and some more in his extras.

Good sheets so far. Any questions? Just shoot them here and I'll try to respond quickly.

When do we get the pie? You said there'd be pie.

I know that this ability can be abused but I would like to ask you about using an artifact which allows you to teleport yourself from one place to the other, as long as two terms are met-
You keep direct eye contact with the spot for three second, and with every movement the item draws blood from the user. With enough movements, the user will begin to feel symptoms of blood loss and faint, or even die in extreme cases.

Redryhno:

Re-purposing one of yours from The Damned huh?

I'm so conflicted as to what to choose. Resident marksman, winged demon and with the example sheet already being a katana user I don't want to appear cliched.

I'll have to just reserve a spot for now.

That's perfectly fine, as long as you have some form of combat potential, or a different, not super powered weapon on you, like a gun. Then yeah, you're golden.

Done.


Any edits, just say the word.

Please let me know if there is anything that needs to be changed, as this sounds like a rather interesting RP

I have one question: Can we infuse weapons with magic? For instance, shooting flaming bullets (not incendiary) or a lightning infused sword.

Sure, that's acceptable.

How's Mickey Mouse?

Really good. I like the idea, you have a good, original concept and you can work in a fight. More than passing to say the least.

Ignore this comment.

Edited my character sheet because I figured out a more distinguished code name.

EDITED: As the appearance seemed too similar to McQuarry, also specified that he uses guns mainly, so as to not appear too JOAT

Mortis Nuncius:

Yours sounds more like an Augmented to me.

JokerboyJordan:
*snip*

Ah, right. Thanks for catching that.

Shameless bump to get this closer to the top of the list, plus an inquiry about the status of this RP.

Added some more details to my sheet. also,

Malyc:

Same.

Hmmm, I wish more people would join.... Oh edited my sheet btw, in case anyone missed it. Nothing drastic.

I don't think so. (Assuming the GM is going to be playing the leader of our team) We have 9 people. I don't think we want more then 11 or 12.

Sometimes the GMs like to pick and choose from a surplus of CSs to find the characters they think will work the best.

Well, lets just hope that one way or another, this RP isint dead. So far every RP iv'e signed up for has gone dead. I hope I don't have a death touch or something. So anyway, looking at your sheet, I don't think that your character and mine are going to get along very well. An excerpt from my sheet "He also has zero tolerance for idiocy or arrogance, and he is openly hostel towards people who he thinks are." and one from yours "Extremely unpredictable, he is rebellious to his core. Seth believes that the inherent powers of his kind grant him superiority over lesser individuals, and as such he is extremely chauvinistic, to the point of being belligerent." Wont end well for one of us when we meet.

That's what makes this things fun! :-D
I can't wait for the clash of personalities, I didn't notice until you pointed it out, but now you have I realise why this show must go on!

It'd be a shame if you didn't like my character... as he has personal insight into different dimensions, thus could help with your research.

Bah, there ain't nothin wrong with a little constructive rivalry... As long as it turns into a competition to see who can kill the most bad guys...

If it turns into an actual fight... Then I may have to attempt to stop it with... my... Hmmm... We'll just cross that bridge when we come to it...

You should totally throw some of those dimensional shenanigans my way...

Never said there was anything wrong with it. I think it's gonna be fun. and its probobly more of the arrogance part then the idiot part. I'm just worried what inventions will come from a collaborative effort with "Mad doc".

I'm not... There can only be awesomeness coming from ideas that come from an absolutely insane person and a religious demon hunter...
