That One Dude

Posts posted by Thar


  1. For me it's Assassin's Creed Odyssey, mainly because it's the only game that came out last year in my list of candidates that I actually played.

    I'll be honest, Ubisoft doesn't have the best business practices, but if you get around the bugs and microtransactions, they can make some pretty damn good games.


  2. Ugh, I can't take the adorableness!

    In all seriousness, these are great. My only gripe is the pattern in the carpet. Might just be a style thing, but given the perspective, they should be wider on the bottom and gradually reducing in size as they get farther back.


  3. Nice thing about a new forum: Interesting RPs are no longer not accepting. ?

    Noting interest. Might post an app later.

    Solar Powered

    “Bright. Light. Shine. Burn!”


    Character Name: Douglas Fitzgerald


    Alias: Solarbarian


    Age: 45


    Sex: Male


    Class: B


    Appearance

    Douglas stands at about 7' tall without armor and weighs about 220 lbs. With it, he stands about 8' weighing close to 300 lbs. With his body being mostly muscle, his figure reveals itself to be incredibly ripped, veiny if he's exerting himself. Due to his power, his skin pigments have adapted to handle prolonged exposure to sunlight, giving it a dark yellowish color with a splash of lowlighted spots as well as tan lines from his clothing and armor. Due to his glowing skin, his eyes have adapted to direct sunlight, giving him vision in brightly-lit areas but causing a layer of white tissue to cover his irises and pupils, making them appear blank.

    Over his clothes, which consist simply of a wife-beater and light shorts (no underpants), he wears a set of heavy armor composed of a chestplate (steel along the front, chainmail around), a scale mail sash, horned helmet, shoulder pauldrons, and boots all made of gold-plated steel. Attached to the back collar of the chestplate is a ripped cape, that he intentionally hasn't had repaired. Finally, he leaves a sheath on his back to hold his greatsword that glows like his skin, keeping a chain on the hilt for extended reach.

     


    Personality

     

    Proud, arrogant, and straight to the point. Douglas resembles the physique and attitude of any beefy strongman too cocky for his own good. With skin as hard as a dragon’s, almost nothing gets to him, but when it does, you best hope the sun isn’t shining at that time. Either way, Douglas on duty exuberates two feelings: comfort and fear. Anyone who knows him know that he is there to protect anyone from harm, and anyone who dares to go against him better be in for the fight of their life.

    Despite his large and intimidating presence, he makes up for it in lack of intelligence. His primary course of action is more direct and forceful rather than tactical and cautious, which often puts him at a disadvantage against the more clever villains. Additionally, Solarbarian's speech is limited and grunty, having never spoken very often or with enough practice. In the grand scheme of things, he is by no means the brains or charisma of the group, but his strength is put to good use.

     


    Powers

     


    Sunlight Absorption:

    Solarbarian absorbs sunlight and channels it into amplified solar energy, granting him various effects and abilities:


    Increased Physical Ability: The more sunlight he has absorbed, the stronger, faster, and more durable he becomes.

    Harnessable Greatsword: He wields a giant sword that is able to channel the energy he has stored within him. While harnessed, the blade acts as an extension of Solarbarian himself, becoming practically weightless while dealing a burst of radiance with each blow.


    Energy Release:

    While harnessing solar energy, Solarbarian can release it in the form of pure condensed light in a variety of ways:


    Solar Beam: Releases a beam of light from his palm.

    Solar Slash: Releases an arc of solar energy in a direction where he slashes his sword.

    Solar Burst: Releases a burst of energy that deals damage to anything within a certain radius of him.

    Strengthened Martial Arts: Can gather energy into his fists to increase the strength of his unarmed strikes.

    Solar Protection: Can condense solar energy around his skin to act as extra protection. Can also be formed into a shield.


     

     


    Background:

     

    Strong from the very beginning, Douglas was birthed through C-section after his vitals went critical during labor. However, he miraculously survived a prolonged period of near-fatal readings that a normal newborn would not have been so lucky with. Since then, genetics were irrelevant to his abnormally fast-growing strength and build. At a young age, he was known to tower over other kids in school, but his intimidating presence acted more as a sign of hope than a means of asserting dominance on the playground. As he kept growing, he kept working to keep in the best shape he could in order to take his stance on school grounds to new heights amongst the streets of the city, making his presence known.

    Throughout his growth, however, his miraculous birth triggered a mutation in his skin that made it especially sensitive to sunlight. While his muscles grew larger and more defined, his skin grew rough, lumpy, and hard. Doctors assumed it to be cancer, but no signs or symptoms showed. It wasn't until he noticed how much more powerful he felt when the sun was shining on him. His skin would radiate, he would move faster, and he would be able to lift things heavier than he was used to. Knowing his place in the world at last, he sought to try out to be a professional hero and learn to utilize his abilities to the fullest.

    Lesnar Claypool - Sound Hero "Boombox"

     

    character1.png
    "Let's just get this over with."


    Name: Lesner Claypool


    Age: 14


    Gender: Male


    Appearance:

     

    Height: 5’ 10”
    Weight: 120 lbs
    lRtMLYG.png


    Personality:

     

    Introverted but cooperative, Lez has no interest in social interaction but has accepted that communication is important. Regardless, he prefers to keep to his music and let the vibrations soothe him. Usually level-headed from exposure to arrogant people, he almost always has the urge to release whatever soundwaves are going through him into whoever bothers him while his headphones are on, however after several instances of getting into trouble, his management of his own “projection” on people has improved. In spite of his distant attitude, he values interpersonal connection when someone is willing to accept the way he is, resulting in a more open and goofy personality that he reserves for people who he trusts and respects.


    Biography:

     

    Lesnar has only known isolation in his youth. Born poor and raised by a drug-addict mother, he never knew his father and was left to be taken care of by his aunt after his mom was deemed unfit to raise him. As such, Lesnar’s life without real parents made him a basket case to his relatives, especially after the realization that he had a quirk. Since then, his aunt’s only involvement in his life was feeding him and giving him shelter until he was old enough to be let go. Once that moment came, she would grant Lesner an opportunity to learn and control his powers at UA High School in Japan, which she took the opportunity for him to leave her place for good.

    Throughout the time he spent alone, Lesner learned to control his quirk after many incidents of breaking things from it. He would meditate in his sleep and train himself against abandoned buildings and run-down areas of town, eventually leading up to the ability to use it on criminals without severely injuring them. With that, people commended him for various acts of heroism, but he never stuck around for the attention it garnered. However, he never turned down money or a free meal given as thanks. In his free time he took major interest in Japanese media and culture, gradually learning Japanese through various animes and mangas leading up to the discovery of a school of superheroes, which was the only thing that his aunt gave him that he asked for.


    Quirk:

     

    Quirk Name: Amplify

    Quirk Type: Emitter 

    Lesnar's body acts as a powerful amplifier for any type of sound. Once he hears something, the sound waves echo throughout his body and compound into potential energy that is stored within him, which can be released through special "speakers" embedded in his palms. The energy released has a variety of effects depending on the pitch of the sound, while its power/effectiveness depends on the volume of its origin.

    In order to get the most out of his ability, Lez needs noise-cancelling headphones to block out all unnecessary ambient sound, including communication from nearby people and potentially an enemy coming at him from a blind spot. Additionally, he can only store energy for a limited amount of time before it dissipates, requiring him to hear more sound in order to regain it.


    Miscellaneous:

     


    Theme: Home - Three Days Grace

    Battle Theme: In the Crossfire - Legacy of Kain: Defiance



  5. Christmas was my big time off. I had the weekend and Tuesday to work with, so I only had to request one day of vacation even though I was short a day, but things worked out. Spent that weekend with the family at my parents' house and everyone was together, so that was nice.

    New Year's I had Tuesday off for, so there was no long weekend for that, but it was nice to sleep in an extra day of the week.
