Huh, you're right... Didn't bother reading through every single old app on the wiki, so I didn't notice that...lol Her ability was actually just a modified version of a plot character's ability from another forum, who had two abilities, the second of which was the ability to bring statues and such to life with her blood. Luckily, there was only a passing mention of her using her ability in her history, so I can change it quite easily. Edit: Edited Cassie's ability.
It's fine Toad. I sincerely doubt I'm bringing her back, anyway. :L Okay so I was going to do more edits to their apps but I couldn't decide how I wanted to format it so I'll just showcase how different they are now in a walloftext dialogue thing Name: Silvira Segura Age: 17 Gender: Female Power(s): she can shapeshift, into anything she has seen in real life or her mind, she can also blend characteristics of varying creatures to create a form with a lot of power. Weaknesses and Limits: it takes time for her to shift to a form, varying from a few moments for forms she uses often to an hour for a completely new form. She can also become disoriented from the change in senses, and in body shape. She also has to have felt the type of skin she uses in the form(such as having to feel a snake’s scales before being able to use them in her form), otherwise it will be some kind of bodily covering she had felt before. She also is limited by size in what she can change into, she cannot become smaller than a rat or larger than a rhinoceros. She requires energy in the form of food to shapeshift, and must be able to concentrate without interruption to shift, otherwise the form will backfire on her, causing her to get a migraine and possibly even to change her form to something far from what she intended. Appearance: Personality: Silvira tends to be a little mistrusting, having lost most of her family to the ETG, then being captured by them herself, she is always afraid of them. However, once she gets to know a Gifted to ascertain they aren’t a member of the ETG, she warms up to them quickly. History: Silvira was raised far from society, in an attempt by her father to keep her safe from the dreaded ETG. For her mother and brothers had suffered a terrible fate at the hands of the ETG... When Silvira was a kid, their family- her father, Steven, her mother, Valeria, and her older twin brothers, Miguel and Garen- lived in a small town. On the night of her tenth birthday, they were having a small celebration for her as a family. As they sang happy birthday to her, the door burst open to reveal unwanted guests: ETG soldiers. Synths. Her father grabbed Silvira up in his arms, running from the house as her mother and brothers stood to cover their escape. The last view she had of her brothers and mother was the three of them, her mother standing with her brothers on either side, her mother glowing with electricity and her brothers, one on fire and the other encased in a shimmering armor of ice. Her father carried her far and fast, never resting for more than a few moments. The minutes since they left stretched to hours, and to days. Then to weeks. She knew they would never go back. ~~~eight years later~~~ Silvira and her father lived together, in a shack far away from any town or city. Silvira had been taught all her father knew about weapons, and she could shoot a gun with fairly good precision. Her father had also taught her how to best use her power, and they ate quite well from Silvira’s hunting. She learned the weaknesses of her power, and the strong points, creating herself templates for quick shifting. Her human form was always the easiest to change to, but she had two others she used often enough to change to with ease: a large cat with otter’s fur and gills, and a falcon. So they lived, quite happily. Until the day the ETG showed back up. It was near the same situation as it had been, eight years before: the ETG breaking down the door with synth soldiers, floodlights filling the house with harsh light, shouting. But this time, there were tranquilizers. She had no time to change, no time to even think about escape. They were caught and tranquilized within seconds. Silvira woke up to find herself in a new hell, of labs and tests and the smell of antiseptic. She hoped, every day after they were finished with testing for the day, that there would be some change, some way to escape. A few tortured months later, they dragged her out of the cage where they were keeping her. Expecting more tests, she struggled enough that they were forced to tranquilize her. When she awoke, it was not to lab equipment but to a change of scenery. They had moved her to a different facility. One that appeared only partially built. She was glad, hopeful that there might be some chance of escape, especially since they didn’t seem inclined to do any tests on her here. So she waited, looking for any chance to escape. Name: Gwendolyn D’arco Age: 23 Gender: Female Power: she can “trade” powers back and forth. If she has a fragment of material that came from a living creature, she can put a power in it, or take one out. So if she has a fragment of bone from another Gifted, she can steal their power and replace it with her own. She can also take a “null” power from things whose owners don’t have a power, such as a square of leather. She can trade her own power for a “null” power, essentially making her a normal human, and then she can exchange that “null” for a power from another source. She can also trade powers with a gifted that is willing, or an unwilling one if they can’t stop her(i.e. Are unconscious, dying, dead, or paralyzed). She gains whatever power exactly how it is; weaknesses and strengths. Her Gift of trading powers stands aloof from it’s trading. Limits/Weaknesses: she has to touch whatever holds the power to exchange it, and she can only have one power at a time. The “null” power counts as a power, and it’s dangerous for her to be using it. And she usually has to kill someone to steal their power. Whatever weakness the power has that she gets, she has as well. When switching powers, it is somewhat disorienting, distracting, and it makes her tired. Appearance: this, but she has green eyes, short black hair and pale skin. could easily be discribed as "emo" or "punk". has three bone-and-silver bracelets on her right wrist. Personality: Highly pessimistic and often grumpy. She has a near hair trigger on her temper and is not a fan of people in general. Basically the only people she’s nice to are those she considers her family- and not family by blood, but by the relationship. She has strong opinions on blood family versus “real” family, and also believes that one’s biological family can’t be their real family. Basically the only person she considers her family at all is Silvira. She may or may not extend that to Liam and crew History: Gwen was always a trouble child. She never really fit in with anyone, mostly because she pushed everyone away before they could get to know her. Besides, the other kids always found her creepy. Gwen was born to a woman who would become a fairly high-ranked ETG officer. This woman, whose name was Gretchen, didn’t want a child. She abandoned Gwen when she was six, leaving her on the cliché doorstep of an orphanage. The orphanage took Gwen in; what else were they going to do? Gwen lived there for several years, eventually being adopted by a couple who were kind but strange. She was ten at the time. They lived in a little town in the middle of nowhere, a nice place all in all, but there weren’t very many kids. Most of the people there were strange, too. Gwen didn’t know it, but they were Gifted. Just like she was. Just like her adopted parents were. Like her mother was. But, Gwen seemed fairly normal. She had no visible power, nothing flashy. She hadn’t figured out how to use her power yet. She was mostly ignored by the other kids, and as she got older, she got used to being on the edge and in the shadows. But she wasn't completely ignored. There was someone who saw her, hiding in the shadows, on the edge of the crowd. His name was Miguel. They became friends quickly, Gwen admiring his power, his amazing control of fire. When his sister was turning ten, Gwen wanted to go to her party. She ended up being late however, and came to find their house in ruins, Miguel’s and Valeria’s and Garret’s bodies laying dead in the rubble. The ETG had killed them. Gwen was distraught, holding Miguel’s dead body and crying. Then a voice came from the silent darkness around her. “do you want to avenge him?” Gwen looked up, to find a woman materializing from the shadows. “you do have a power, Gwendolyn D’arco. It just hasn’t become obvious yet. Come with me, and we can train your power. You can keep this-” the woman motioned at the rubble- “from happening to those you love.” the woman’s smile seemed sincere, her voice inviting and fierce, saying this shouldn't have happened, and it wont happen again. “all right, what do you want from me.” Gwen growled. “just come with me. I won’t hurt you, and I’ll see to it no-one does. I’m sorry I had to leave you at the orphanage, Gwen. But it’s worth it.” Gwen tried to conceal her shock. This woman was her mother? “you’re.. My mom?” she asked, raising an eyebrow. “yes, Gwen. I am.” that settled it for Gwen. She went with Gretchen, and on her orders, the dead bodies of the Segura family were put into containment at the nearby ETG base, where they were going. Gwen wasn’t tortured like most of the kids at that base were, instead being trained. Gwen made it clear from the start, though, that she didn’t want to become an officer. It turned her stomach to watch the scientists in their white lab coats torment kids, some very young. Having found what her power was, Gretchen gave Gwen a bracelet, the first of several. A simple one, with silver and bone beads on a thin wire, with a small clasp. Having found how to do it, she started using the bones on the bracelet as storage for powers. Three already were imbued with powers: fire, ice, and electricity. Gwen was never told where the beads came from. But they were each from a different person. The three already powered, were from the Seguras, and the other beads were made from animal bone. Over eight years of being trained by her mother, she became more and more resentful of how the ETG treated kids. The last straw came one fateful day, when they brought two new subjects in for testing. They were both unconscious, and Silvira had grown a lot, but Gwen still recognized them. She hated Malack. He was so arrogant, flaunting these figures from her past in her face. That night, she sneaked out of the base and ran, taking every power storage she had with her. A lot of walking, a few days running from police, some stolen cash and a boat later, she found herself on Derika. She wandered around a while, using the powers she had stored up to protect and feed herself. She eventually came across Brinkhaven, and entered the city over the wall. She decided to stay. There were many Gifted there. She could accumulate great power here. Equipment: her three bone-and-silver power storing bracelets, black jeans, black shirt, backpack containing a small pistol, a couple of pocketknives, some assorted foods, a change of clothes, an iPod, and earbuds. I feel like these apps are still so noobish ugh. Even after I cleaned them up, which I feel like I should have done more of. But it's early so bluh *starts drafting walloftext dialogue thing*
Already changed it to gaining physical abilities from living creatures, though it doesn't work on 'humans.'
You could always have him appear at the checkpoint with all his weapons, only to be stopped by the guards because they think he's too heavily armed, allowing you to get into a conversation with Herbert, Stu's character.
If my beloved moirail would reaccept my characters he could totally interact with them and it'd probably be hilarious but he hasn't yet >.>
Note to self: Make Totes Not Deadpool like Jack Noir Problem is, it would more likely be a... uh, gunfight with me having the upper hand in terms of firepower
Of course. Theres's a massive clan about Homestuck here, too. Kinda dying out, though And so offtopic...
