Ooh! I completely forgot about that tactic! I will definitely do that, thanks!

Lifestyle
Stefan is a drug dealer, selling stolen pharmaceuticals and his own designer brands. He is also part of the underground goth scene and frequents the clubs and haunts associated with them. He can be ruthless but when out numbered he will always back down and would sell out a friend to save his own neck anytime.

Powers and Abilities
Stefan knows how to street fight and is good with a knife but he prefers to stab someone in the back rather than confronting his enemies.

He has an incredible sense of smell that exceeds the accuracy and range of a blood hound and thus also has an exceptional sense of taste. Stefan can see in the dark as well, being able to utilize the smallest amount of light to see by, but in total blackness, void of light can see nothing. This ability makes his eyes very sensitive to light, and he is unable to see in the day without darker than normal sunglasses, so he usually sleeps during the day and is up all night.

Scavenger also has a strange ability that allows him to transform into a common raven. It is actually a molecular ability that allows him to manipulate the molecules of his body and clothing (because it is in contact with his flesh). The change takes only a few seconds, but is not possible if he is in contact with another living creature, so if he is being held his transformation is not possible.

Why a raven? Stefan is not really sure, but he believes it has something to do with the fact that his Great Great Grandmother, May Ravencloud was a full-blooded, Huron and stories passed down though the generations said that she believed that she could fly. He's never cared to really discover the answer and uses the ability for spying on his competition and thieving.

Cool! Stupid question: What's a Huron?

Even for a lone wolf like Grey, he'll make an awesome partner

Native North American's usually making their homes in a fairly compact area of central Ontario between the southern end of Georgian Bay and Lake Simcoe. Many of them ended up making their homes in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and upper Michigan and eventually migratedf to Kansas.

In other words, Indians who originated in Canada.

Are we clear?

Scavenger is approved.

Should be interesting. A couple of drugged out meta humans eventually meeting up with a rogue band of meta humans trying to hide from authorities that can pretty much do what ever they want.

Noice...

Can't wait to see how THAT meeting goes.


ROTFL

Vacily is a Colonel in the U.S. Marine Corps and works at the Pentagon, but secretly he is one of the Controllers of BEACON.

"Zradsvuite prizra", greeted Surge.

Toril was speechless, he hadn't expected his former mentor to come all this way to collect the data in person. "I think I am the one looking at the ghost.", he replied and the man responded with a warm smile, then Toril quickly added "It is good to see you Vacily." offering his hand, which Vacily readily accepted and shook vigorously, reaching up with his other hand and slapping him hard on the shoulder. "Look at you!" he remarked studying Toril's youthful features inquisitively. Then moved his hand to the face and gave it an affectionate slap. "Still handsome and strong, and me," he gestured to his own face, moving his hand over a vicious scar around his right eye and grimacing, "nah."

Vacily's accent was pure american, a deep bold voice, but every so often in familiar company the accent of his first language slipped out and his mannerisms turned distinctly Eastern European. Toril remembered well, how Vacily could transform his persona at will, trained to do so during his days in the C.I.A. when he was used to infiltrate highly secure Russian installations. Born in American to Russian defectors, Vacily would become a marine and display aptitudes that would indoctrinate him into Central Intelligence, who honed his skills of misdirection and subterfuge. His expertise in deception had taught him to never readily trust anyone and so the same was with his own government, so he kept his mutant abilities a secret and that caution would eventually pay off. As meta-humans fell under scrutiny, Colonel Vacily Serge Petrovsky was able to retain his power and authority and use it to help create the secret organization called Beacon, an organization dedicated to eliminating the human threat from the mutant world.

All the while that Vaciliy served the American Military and worked for the C.I.A. he would also put on his costume and defend the world from the very corruption he helped to create. As 'Surge' he could release his powerful meta-abilities and pit them against other mutants and foes that were untouchable to a marine corps colonel. Alongside other masked super-heroes, like the Wraith and the great Battalion, he believed he was making a difference in the world all those years ago.


Blue eyes and Sandy Blonde hair (what remains). His sight is limited in his right eye and he has extensive scarring around it. He stands 5'9" tall and weighs approximately 170 lbs.



Surge may be one of the most powerful meta-humans in the world. He can generate electricity and also produce electromagnetic fields which allow him to manipulate anything that is magnetic. His powers are so developed, that he can also produce electro-magnetic pulses that can disrupt small electrical devices or even black-out part of a city.

During electrical storms he can channel the lightning through his body and hurl it, or use the power to greatly increase his own electrical field. He is also effected by these storms and extensive magnetic storms as well, which cause him to temporarily lose control of his powers, but he is able to take a special medication that dampens the surges.

Surge also has enhanced physical attributes, such as heightened muscularity and endurance, but since he does not train to push these traits to their maximum he simply maintains an athletic physique without having to exercise daily.

_________________________________________

5'8", 126 lbs. Light Blonde hair and bright blue eyes. Sara-Lynn is a statuesque woman with an intimidating beauty. Despite her angelic face, Sara-Lynn is as devious as they come. She is highly manipulative, and while her interests currently lie with Beacon, she is only concerned with herself and what she gets out of her service to a cause that she really doesn't even believe in.

She hates Humans and if others of her kind are not beneficial they are regarded as liabilities to her own personal agenda.



Sun Storm can generate massive amounts of Solar Radiation to produce heat and light. She can generate laser beams from her body and usually directs these with her hands. Fire has no effect on her and she even has the ability to produce around her a field of intense heat that enables her to fly by using heat like a rocket to propel her through the air. Her speed can match that of a speeding missile and her heat field, protects her eyes from debris as she goes speeding through the air.

Kinda goes without saying that Surge is approved.


But to stay consistent, here it is in writing.

LOL

Morgan is approved.


Welcome to the fray!

A place to introduce her is sure to present itself soon. Keep an eye out for a good time to insert her into the story.

Right now, Yelena, Toril, Cassius and Shawn are in Canadaigua, a town named after the finger lake about 4 hours north west of New York city. HOWEVER, Tim Rutherford, a.k.a. Cowboy, has just retreived his black horse Mustang fromt he garage and is on his way out of the city. Maybe you two could hook up that way.

Just throwing things out there for ya.

He grew up in Haida Gwaii, otherwise known as the Queen Charlotte Islands. Raised by his grandparents, he learned the old ways and is able to speak Haida (Tlingit), the language of his forefathers, plus Ojibwa and Cree. Under the tutor-ship of his grandparents and other members of his community, Russel has become an exceptional artist and his crafts are prevalent throughout the Western States and Canada. He markets his artwork under the name Good Leaf, which is a name associated with Eastern Native Peoples. His actual last name is Davidson but he rarely uses it.

When he was a young man, Russel discovered that he had the power to alter his own physical attributes. He could concentrate, and make himself stronger, faster or increase the range and acuity of his senses. His eyes would transform to match the animal power that he summoned, but he would have no other physical changes to denote the creature of whose attributes he was borrowing. Even though he did not physically change, however, he could still fly if he used the powers of a flying animal. As an eagle, he could see far and soar through sky as if on wings.

Being traditional, he learned to focus these abilities by what he believed was channeling the spirits of the animals but as he grew older realized that it was just a method he accepted to use his meta-abilities. Nonetheless, he could not trigger his abilities any other way and so among those who realized what he was he became known as Totem, able to channel the powers of the spirits.

Totem can only conjure one animal at a time and often maintain it for no more than an hour. He can summon the strength and senses of a bear, the speed of deer, the rage of a wolverine, the eyes of an eagle and so on. Before the Riggs Act, he used to dress up in the traditional costume of a native warrior and armed with knife, tomahawk and bow deal with poachers and other illegal activities occurring on Native land.

When R.A.I.D. came around looking for Totem, Russel avoided the registry by escaping to Oregon, where there are reserves of West Pacific Natives. They speak variations of the Oregan Athabasken Language, which is similar to the Haida tongue allowing Russel to easily learn their traditional speech and blend in. He had to leave his home, since the corrupt Haida bands, thought that they would split the reward offered by RAID if they assisted in the capture of Totem. Disheartened by the betrayal of his own people, Russel stayed in Oregon.

Russel is approved.


We're getting a good variety of meta's in the story now. SA-WEET!

I think I'll introduce a 'regular' human in the near future.

Name: Sean Miller
Height:5' 8"
Weight: 130 lbs
Age: 34
Hair: short and dark black
Eyes: soft white glow with black pupils
Skin tone: pitch black
Face: facial features are indistinguishable (to be explained below)
Clothing: Black hooded cloak, black gloves, boots, dark sunglasses
Ability: Sean is a living shadow. He is able to see perfectly in the dark and can change into a shadow at will. He can also merge with the shadows nearby inorder to hide for those that may come looking for him. His abilities have turned him pitch black. Everything except for his eyes are black. Sean is only able to really travel safely at night. The second side effect of his abilities is extreme photosensitivity.

Nobody really knows what happened. Sean was a normal kid. He grew up playing like kids normally do. Sure he was a little more sensitive to the sun than most so his parents always made sure he had sunblock on. It wasn't until Sean turned sixteen that things started to change. His complexion steadily grew darker and darker as his eyes started to take on a soft glow. Sean eventually withdrew completely at the age of eighteen. One night during a late night stroll he finally discovered the full extent of his powers. A car came racing down the street and as it neared Sean the young man turned into a shadow.

Fast forward six years. Sean was the hero known as the Shadow. Criminals in his neighborhood soon came to fear the shadows. When the Riggs Act was passed he had no choice but to vanish completely. He now spends his days wandering and helping people where he can. Mostly he keeps to himself since the sight of him tends to scare most people.

Approved! Very interesting character. The Shadow will be a great addition to the team, I believe he and Wraith would work well together as their powers give them a similar advantage. You may work him into the story whenever you see an opening.
