Nye
Race: Elf Gender: Male Class: Sorcerer Strength (Str) Mid Dexterity (Dex) Mid Constitution (Con) High Intelligence (Int) High Wisdom (Wis) Low Charisma (Cha) Low Nye was part of a secret joint Dwarf/Elven attempt to teleport a binational team to the moon. Successfully teleported, Nye was the only member of the 4 man team to activate his return beacon, though a misfire from being bombarded with cosmic energy has caused him to reappear a fair way away from Serenity Space Center. No one is sure what happened on the moon, least off all Nye who has been left with massive gaps in his memory. Whether this is the result of strange cosmic energy or it simply being to traumatic for him to remember is anyone's guess. Upon his return, Nye begins developing strange powers he never before possessed. Appearance: Nye is a tall, lanky elf with long, matted blond hair and a sunken face. He is wearing a strange, fully covering suit of leather and metal, obviously of dwarven make. It included a helmet at one point, but this was lost during re-entry. Abilities: 1. Luna Wave: A distortion of Gravity, allowing Nye to "Push" or "Pull" objects toward him. Strong as a punch. Becomes as strong a Bullet at level 10. Becomes a tank shell at Level 15. 2. Earth Mover: Nye may Manipulate the earth under his feet in a localized area. Area of effect increase at level 20 to include all he can see. 3. Venus Light: Creates a light in the users hand. May be created independently of hand at level 5. May be focused into a laser at level 15. 4. Mercury Heat: Nye emits a scorching heat from his hands. Becomes a ranged attack at level 10. 5. Sol Heal: Nye admits a flame of life from his hands, and way heal on touch. Becomes ranged at level 10. Revives the dead at level 20. 6: Astronomy/Astrology: Nye has recalled his knowledge of the stars and planets from before the project. 7: Engineering: Nye has regained his knowledge of complex Magitec engineering from before the project. 8. Exotic Weapons Proficiency: Nye has recalled his training for the Project, and Gains proficiency with advanced Magitec weapons. 9: Mars Strength: Nye may treat anything he is touching as though it were less than half it's weight. At level 15, he may apply this buff to others. At level 20, he may apply this buff to others at range. Only one person may have this buff at one time. 10. Asteroid Decent: Nye may will meteorites and meteoroids towards his location. At Level 15, he may will them at different locations within his range of sight. At 20, the Meteor he can call become much bigger. 11. Jupiter Wind: Nye may unleash a strong gale. At level 15 the wind become hurricane force. At level 20, the wind become Tornado force. 12. Saturn Shield: Nye may protect himself or others from magical attacks with a ring of energy. The ring will absorb one spell, then dissipate. 13. Uranus Reorientation: Nye may change his own gravitational orientation, allowing his to walk on any surface as though it were the ground. 14. Neptune Flow: Nye may call up water from the earth. At 15, he may create water. 15. Pluto Chill: Nye may emit a horrible cold from his hands, either as a melee or ranged attack. 16. Windows to Eternity: Anyone who looks into Nye's eyes for more than 5 seconds will be able to see the vastness and wonders of space. Effect is permanent. 17.Constellation Construct: Nye may summon a constellation to do battle with him. 18. Singularity: Nye may create a Black Hole. 19. Pillars of Creation: The pure essence on a Nebula swirls around Nye, the dust and gasses forming miniature stars and planets. 20. Gamma Ray Burst: A focused beam of light, radiation, and heat created from the energy of a collapsing star. Capable of melting through mountains and boiling lakes and rivers away. Renders the area around and across which it is fired unlivable due to radiation. Damage is catastrophic to anything around Nye when he uses this spell. Relationships: The Project: A secret collusion between the major Dwarven and Elvish nations to claim the moon for themselves, the elves because it is one of their gods and the dwarfs for the lucrative mining opportunities they saw. They would much rather the other nations never learn anything about the project, and will take the necessary steps to insure this. Sagan, Aldrin, and Armstrong: An elf and a pair of dwarves, in that order, and members of the ill fated moon expedition. Their fates are unknown to anyone but themselves, but they may have been exposed to the same cosmic energy that gave Nye his powers. Decided to tweak spaceman a bit.

Interesting, though I don't think the astronaut thing fits the Rp's theme.
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?
1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. |
I like my fantasy kind of incredibly high magic. To me "hey there's this rock hanging in the sky, lets try to port someone there" is nothing to raise your eyebrows over. At least no more than dragons.

You should totally look into this Vault.
“She'd become a governess. It was one of the few jobs a known lady could do. And she'd taken to it well. She'd sworn that if she did indeed ever find herself dancing on rooftops with chimney sweeps she'd beat herself to death with her own umbrella.”

Last week I was wondering why there were not many stories featuring magic as a means of space travel.
So how big is this black hole your character can summon. |
I don't know. They wouldn't have to be very big to be dangerous, would they?

It just seems like one of those abilities that would receive about five posts saying "no jester, I am not going to give you something that has the potential to warp time and space or destroy the planet in this rp, stop trying to break the game."
If I had put it into a character sheet. |

Potentially, yes, it seems like just that sort of ability.
Though, I suppose, with some screening, it could work. For whoever picked it (in this case, GV, but potentially for you, as well).

Good point. It IS potentially game breaking.

What about the city buster on level twenty?

What about it? I haven't actually read through GV's proposed character yet...

It's the sort of attack that's so ridiculous that you never get an opportunity to use it safely.

It depends on how easily it does destroys what size area, with it he's basically a walking hydrogen bomb.

It really is. Scorched earth, kill everything around you, probably kill you. Like, Godzilla or something would have to be coming to make using it even remotely feasible.

Yeah, but he basically can't ever use it because it would kill all his teammates as well as destroy anything worth fighting for nearby.
It's basically an endgame spell. In every sense of the term.

I still think it might be rather odd for the setting.

Generic fantasy.
Oh.... Okay, yeah, I'm going to have to rethink this.

Kudos, though, for thinking outside the box.
