Sorry, I've been away a while, so I'm gonna answer the questions you had while I was away...

@ Everblade: First of all, um, five powers, really? I don't think you could do too much to keep him from looking like a Mary-Sue. Think Superman...hell, he's died plenty of times and came back every time...I think that two main powers should suffice, and then you can have a few subpowers that are adaptations resulting from the main two. People are typically okay with that arrangement because it helps in combat without making you seem unfairly powerful; I mean, even if you had five powers you would have to lessen their capabilities

@ Wish: As for Micky and Wayne, the two are both acceptable, even though the one is just a backup. You can choose both or one or the other, it doesn't matter.

An aside--if you're looking for a auditory aid to imagine what Ben sounds like as a musician, imagine Adam Ben-Ezra's arrangement of Drifting mixed with Ron Carter's walking bass action. However, on his average days, he can do some of Stanley Clarke's tricks, too--his chords and partials, stuff like that.

Before the accident, Ben tended to play jazz classics (So What, Autumn Leaves, Hackensack, etc.) but post-accident, his repitoire has expanded to tangoes (Libertango), gypsy jazz (Minor Swing), and even some studies transcribed from the Arban's Book--also known as the Trumpeter's Bible--just because he was bored that day.

===Character===

Nick Name/Alias- Heavyweight, Bruiser, Iron Fist (mostly by Fitz Tanner)

=Appearance=

Height- 6'4

Weight- 263 lbs.

Gender- Male

Chronological Age- 24

Biological Age- twenties

Skin Color- White (slightly tan)

Eye Color- Green

Hair Color- Dirty-blond (often shaved)

Species- Superhuman (Human Mutant)

Other- English with a Cockney accent and a muscular build

=Psychology=

Likes- Food, TV, movies, working out and exercise, the company of friends, showing off his looks, showing off his powers, social functions, sex, travel, spontaneity, adventure, a challenge, outsmarting enemies

Dislikes- nerds, know-it-alls, arrogant people (irony), being bossed around, stronger superhumans, elevated diction (big words make him think you're trying to be condescending toward him)

Phobias- minor acrophobia (fear of heights), minor claustrophobia (can't stand being in close or cramped spaces for a long time)

Personality- Brash, reckless and quite cocky, both about his looks and his abilities. Easily willing to throw himself into the fray of combat, especially for the sake of friends and loved ones; he's certain that with his powers, his wit, and a good bit of dumb luck, he's capable of whatever he sets out to do. Though, while an intimidating figure to many, and a competent fighter against most, he is truly a sweet, jocular fellow; a big brother type, really, who, while he may get on your nerves, you can always count on him to have your back, when you need him.

=Skills=  

Knowledge-- Average intellect; aside from two years' worth of college education, knowledge or random trivia knowledge in some of every subject

Skills-- Dancing, Lying, intimidation  (with his ability), interrogation  (with his ability), persuasion (with his ability), decent at reading body language, fighting (especially by combining his abilities with his skills--skill in street fighting, boxing and wrestling), improvised weaponry, decent at figuring out how machines work, driving, swimming

Nonskills-- Singing, Music, Poetry, speaking different languages, taking rejection or defeat quietly

=Superpowers!=

Power- Extra-Arm Generation (capable of protruding and retracting an extra pair of arms, the same size as his other arms, just below his first pair)
   
    Sub-powers- Arm Regeneration (his body can regenerate from the loss of his normal arms, OR his extra arms)

    Sub-powers- Superhuman Strength (with and without extra arms)

    Sub-powers- Superhuman Endurance/Durability (with and without extra arms)
   
    Power Scale- 8 (extended extra arms enhance his incredible strength by 50 times)
    Control Scale- 8 (the extra pair of arms come out almost instantaneously and with an amount of pain that Ivan has learned to ignore; durability can withstand the force of an explosion; in addition, durability is passive, and strength is easy to control)


Power- Peak Condition (Peak Human Potential- body is peak for his race, age, height and weight; "nearly-perfect" physique; also good for charming the ladies :D )

    Sub-powers- Superhuman Stamina

    Sub-powers- Superhuman Metabolism (can resist, but not totally withstand illness and poison)

    Sub-powers- Superhuman Willpower (can resist, but not totally withstand, telepathy and mind control)
   
    Power Scale- 7 (takes exposure to alot of toxins, or exposure to toxins for a long time--about ten minutes--to get him sick; takes about an hour and a half of vigorous exercise to tire him out completely; takes higher-level mind intruding abilities--Possession, Telepathy, etc. to penetrate/overpower his mind)
    Control Scale- N/A (powers are passive, and thus are always active; no need to activate or concentrate)

HAHAHAHAHA! That is so hilarious, because somehow I just stumbled on this pic of him (looking for a tough guy with a buzz cut)...he wasn't even my original idea for Ivan, but, shoot, he'll have to do...

Now just imagine him with an English accent and you have MY character...

Make sure you read the rules so you don't make any mistakes in the design or use of your character (or the design of your stories in the RP...

Shadowulf1 wrote
...

Character Rules:

1) no plagiarism (especially not from published works); this includes quotes, catchphrases, characters, names of locations, anything that can be used to comprise the element of the story; if one uses a quote from another source, it must be somehow indicated either in the story, or in some notes posted after the story itself...

2) no flaming (harsh criticisms, unnecessarily mean/rude reviews, namecalling, insults, direct OR indirect attack of character...); screw politeness and hurting feelings; it's about RESPECT

3) no trolling (kinda goes with #2, but no harrassment will be tolerated; constantly bugging posters about elements of their story, or asking them to include something of yours, or pestering of any other nature will result in deletion of your posts from the thread)

4) no remarks of a derogatory nature (racial slurs, sexist remarks, homophobic slurs, mocking the handicapped/disabled, etc), implied or indirect (two black characters cannot refer to themselves as "nigga", and there will be no use of racial epithets, or other derogatory terms in ANY story; no compromise, no negotiations)

5) any "risky" content of the story must be stated before the story is begun (we must have some indicator if your story is going to have some profanity; and even though we don't post pictures of such, the presence of nudity, intercourse or any other sexual content must be stated BEFORE the story is posted; some people find such material offensive and would like to avoid contact with such)

6) stories which are apart of the same continuity are continued all in the same thread (imagine the Harry Potter Series; if it were to be severely shortened, parts 1-7 would all be posted in the same thread, as they are part of the same series; this is only to avoid confusion and save space)

7) if the character is to be considered a main character you want to use, you must post a profile of his/her information, regardless of whether he is human or superhuman (this is to prevent the use of Mary-Sues or Gary-Lous, and to prevent posters from switching up powers, characteristics and other stats; it also helps to kind of direct the story, as collaborators within one story can know how to interact with one another, making the interaction more realistic)

8) use of Mary-Sues or Gary-Lous (or whatever the male version of a Mary-Sue is) is strictly prohibited; if a character is suspected of being a Mary-Sue, it will be brought to the attention of others; upon review, if the character is found to BE a Mary-Sue/Gary-Lou, the poster will be asked (nicely) to revise the traits of the character that make it such; if the character is NOT revised, it will be deleted (as well as all posts associated with it), and the poster will be asked not to use that character again in ANY future stories...

these were all I could think of; help me out if ya think I missed something
Other than that, good luck to you when we get the RP up and running
