    I just realized i never posted an appearance for Alistair.

    He is about 6' 5, and slim. He has ashen, almost blueish shin, and red eyes. His fine elven features contrast with the brutality in his eyes. A runic tattoo runs from just above his left eye down to his chin. He wears a suit of light combat armor, with a single pauldron on his left shoulder.

    So, there it is, not much, but I couldn't figure what to do without controlling Warps character.

    By the way, to make this fair I propose a battle system for us to use. I write what i think would happen, you read my post and if you disagree with the outcome tell me hear. We agree on a solution, I edit my post, then you write yours. I read yours and if I disagree with the outcome I tell you ect ect.

    Exsample Char A does X to Char B
    But Char A can't do X do to a power or ability Char B has.
    The writer of Char B tells the writer of Char A why and so on.

    You get it?

    Those tend to go on for a long time and end in arguments. Well, this happens in my real-life experiences, at least.

    I think we should just decide how the story would progress best, then have the battle go in a way that would end in the desired outcome.

    EDIT: should've quoted Exzalia with the battle idea; that's what I was referring to.

    maybe your right. Let us see how how it goes first, I can assure you I am a very agreeable guy.

    The problem is you don't know what the opponent will do for sure. I may write that Kate knocks him out with a bolt gun. But what if that wouldn't work?
    It's only fair to give the other writer time to respond.

    I was just about to hit they hay when I saw your post. Bit of advice to help you out.

    Think outside the box!
    develop your own kind of energy, or gene, or something, some mechanic to base your character around no matter how crazy.
    I won't give you examples because the creative process is all yours but try not to follow any rules to start. Then tone it down once you get a wild idea!

    hope that helps

    Exalia, your battle idea may be better to do as PMs then post the whole thing.

    Pheonix, I just realized assuming your character landed in the streets was probably controlling it without permission... Do you want me to edit the part out?

    New Character!

    Name: Indira Blue

    Gender: female

    Age: unknown (appears to be in her late 20s)

    Species: Mermaid – unlike their deep-water counterparts, mer-folk from the shallow regions are amphibious shapeshifters, capable of taking on a human guise when out of the water. Indira can transform herself to look like any hominid of similar size and shape. However, she will revert to her natural form if exposed to water. Complete immersion in water will cause her legs to fuse into a fishtail for fast swimming, but this effect can take many minutes to undo.

    Appearance: Indira usually adopts the disguise of a human woman (when infiltrating NCF territory) or an Elf (when she is on her own turf). She can be very cunning and frequently mimics others to confuse her enemies or test her allies.

    Her true form is about 5’5” with a slender athletic build and pale blue skin with white facial markings, like war paint. She has dark, fierce blue eyes and elfin features, including long dagger-like ears. In place of hair, she has thick blue head tentacles, which hang down to her back.

    Class: Biochemical Terrorist

    Class Feat: Weaponized Blood -- Indira’s blood is infused with a genetically-engineered self-replicating nanovirus to maximize survivability during long excursions behind enemy lines. This gives her advanced healing and an extremely high resistance to most toxins, as well as absolute control over her blood. Indira’s blood acts as an extension of her own body and can even be used as a weapon.

    Alliance: Rebellion (?)

    Faction: Black Death – Indira is the leader of a small group of biochemical terrorists, notorious for their desire to eradicate the human race. This sentiment extends to half-humans and even humans who sympathize with the fantasy races. She is responsible for the bombings of many hospitals, schools, and civilian shelters, as well as military targets. Her ruthlessness and cruelty has put her high on the NCF’s most wanted list and even the Rebellion has refused to support her unless she changes her ways.

    Weapon: Indira is skilled in most firearms, but rarely carries more than a standard handgun. When forced to fight, she prefers combat to be visceral and close. Few people have bested her in a knife fight.

    Character Background:
    Of all the fantasy races to escape Earth’s destruction, mer-folk are one of the rarest. Exposure to the irradiated oceans led to high mortality rates, especially among the weaker shallow-water subspecies. Many of those who did escape suffered from mutations and illnesses which were passed down through the generations. Indira’s mother was very frail and confined to water, due to a genetic defect that made her bones too brittle for walking. She spent her days doing tricks in a fish tank at an amusement park for human tourists. Her father was physically fine, but mentally deficient. He had the mind of a child and worked a minimum wage job scrubbing toilets and mopping floors.

    Indira, on the other hand, was an incredibly intelligent girl. She got high marks in school and went on to pursue a medical degree. She was enthralled with the idea of curing the various diseases and afflictions that held people down. For her doctoral thesis, she began developing a panacea -- a cure-all for everything from brittle bones to dementia to the common cold. Shortly after having a major breakthrough, civil war broke out on New Hope. A day after that, she was informed both of her parents had been killed. Dr. Indira Blue and her “miracle cure” disappeared from the institute where she was studying. She burned all of her old research and set about eradicating the greatest disease of all: humankind.

    No one seems to be playing humans! I might make separate short profiles for the other Judicators. Treat them as named NPCs for now please... i.e, don't kill them!
