Morphs Idea Comments

[Marvelous Miscreant]

We'd need to know what characters everyone is playing and as of right now, its a little unclear.

Except for Bug, who's a wolf.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

You know Phi, if you still want some kind of ranged character, you could try one of these...

Staple Gun
Fire Hose
Sling Shot
Flare Gun
Pitching Machine

The main thing I liked about the porcupine was the unique weapon (Blow dart gun) along with the ability to generate its ammo and the poison ability for utility stuff.

I don't necessarily have to be ranged. Some utility type of character who can also use that utility to take action himself is what I'm looking for. A morph with many possible shifts is also something I want.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Well, look around your home, for an object that could be interesting. Maybe browse a Strange Animal list if you want an animal morph with something unique.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

Pistol Shrimp.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

That, would be cool. Acoustic Bullets....

[Zaleramancer]

Give me a random thing.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

Pressure cooker.

[Zaleramancer]

Alright.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Wait, really? You're just gonna go with the first thing someone suggests? Wow, that's a pretty bold move. I respect that.

[Zaleramancer]

I take it as a creative exercise.

Now I just need to find whatever the proper format is, then think about it.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Format for what? For character creation?

[Zaleramancer]

Profiles and such.

And anything to keep in mind.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Well, since I removed some of the more constraining aspects of the RP I haven't made a real profile template.

I guess all you really need is your background, your morph, any abilities you may have and a general biography. I made this far less rule bound and a little more free form in regards to how morphs are handled. As long as it makes at least some logical sense and isn't way outside the realm of the plausible for the purposes of this RP it should be fine.

Marv, this is still my guy. In case you thought I was switching. I'm not.

Ezekiel Polk

There isn't really a word for what Polk is. The closest would probably be mercenary or career criminal. Robbery, murder, fraud, kidnapping, Polk had done it all for a bit of scratch. He'd never been that mastermind though. Polk was more of a fieldwork sort of guy, the one you sent out to club someone in the back of the head or riddle a storefront with bullets to draw the police away. Sometimes his job was to just stand silently behind his boss and smile at people. But that sort of job was boring.

You see, Polk enjoys his work. A lot. More than is healthy. The thought of a good fight, any kind of fight at all, gets him all a tingle. As a result, he's sort of between jobs at the moment. After all, no one wants to work with a psycho.

Appearance: Polk is tall and thin, with slicked back hair and an almost permanent 5:00 shadow. He enjoys wearing suits. He thinks they make him look dashing, but he's wrong. Most of them are ill-fitted.

Morph: Handcuffs

Normal Mode: Polk has no formal training in hand to hand combat, but years of picking fights in the street have left him a very competent fighter. He is deceptively quick for how tall he is. He is also well versed in various firearms, although he is by not particularly good with any of them. If he had to pick a favorite type of battle, it would have to be the knife fight.

Hybrid Mode: Polk's hybrid form allows him to "Uncuff" his 4 fingers and thumb, tuning his hands into something resembling metal talons. These cuff fingers can be closed around something and locked, effectively tethering an opponent to Polk. However, the fingers are stiff metal and can only open and close. This means that Polk can not use a weapon in a hand that is a cuff.

Every body part between his two hands can be transformed into a chain, allowing Polk to dodge attacks by splitting apart. He can also use the chain to fire off his cuff hands and reel someone in. However, his control over the chain is limited to transforming into and out of it. He can not animate the chain parts of his body as if they were a snakes or something. This leads to a decrease in mobility and fine control whenever he decides to use the chain. He can also only split apart horizontally, not vertically.

Full Mode: A small pair of dirty handcuffs. Polk can move around slowly in this form, like an inchworm. The form also lowers his total mass, allowing him to survive falls and impacts that would kill a person.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Alright. To tell you the truth I was hoping you'd stick with that character. I like him a lot.

Right, because your character is such an upstanding citizen.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

A terrible man. My idea of Chaotic Evil played correctly.
