Achilles came the most natural to me so that's why I have his MicroHero ready first:

BOO, *****ES!

[FONT=&quot]
[FONT=&quot]Create a Hero RPG SEASON III Application
[/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Character you have created:[/FONT] Edward Cayce (pronounced Casey)

[FONT=&quot]Alias: [/FONT]Edward The Mystic (tabloid nickname)

[FONT=&quot]Speech Color: [/FONT]Trebuchet MS, and bold

[FONT=&quot]Character Alignment: [/FONT]Hero

[FONT=&quot]Identity:[/FONT]Known

[FONT=&quot]Character Personality:[/FONT] A normal man before his accident, Edward is quiet and shy. He's developed a phobia of touching people, afraid of what he might see. He sometimes sees his gift as a curse, and is quick to change the subject when his abilities are brought up. While the world pesters and badgers him for answers to what their future hold, he ignores their cries and assists the LHPD when needed.

[FONT=&quot]Uniform/costume: No costume. Edward routinely wears a suit and tie or jeans and a t-shirt when assisting the LHPD.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Origin Info/Details:[/FONT] Born to a military family in 1976, Edward Cayce had a regular childhood on a military base in Nevada. Edward was nearly thirty years old when tragedy struck. After having numerous seizures, doctors diagnosed Edward with brain cancer. A benign tumor had slowly formed in the center of his brain. Inoperable, doctors speculated that the tumor had been there since Edward was a toddler. It had never impeded his brain functions until now. Even more amazing was the way his brain was adapting to the tumor. Edward's brain synapses were bypassing the tumor and operating in parts of the brain rarely used by humans.

The side effects of his brain's new path soon became apparent. It was sitting in the hospital that he had his first psychic vision. He saw a man walking into the hospital ER and shooting a doctor. Confused and uncertain about what he had saw, he began to scream for help and was believed to be insane after he told doctors and nurses of his vision. The doctor's were in the process of having Edward committed when his vision came true. A man, angry that his wife had died in surgery, had walked into the ER and killed his wife's doctor. The staff was dumbfounded by the discovery and the story made the national news. Even though doctors begged him to stay, Edward left the hospital and moved to Lost Haven, hoping to hide in the large crowds and relative anonymity. Even though he was trying be a recluse, his visions had other plans. Another one came to him shortly after arriving in Lost Haven. He saw a girl kidnapped from her home. He went to the LHPD and Detective Nick Pierce. The story Edward told fit the case of Jessica Carter, an eight-year-old who had been kidnapped twelve hours earlier. Pierce, one of the few people who believed him, took Edward up on his offer to assist in the investigation. Together the two men tracked her down and managed to arrest her kidnapper. The papers had a field day with the news that a psychic had actually managed to help a case. The LHPD saw the upside of Edward and his powers and made him a consultant to LHPD's Major Case Squad, an elite unit that handles some of the cities most high profile and unusual crimes.

[FONT=&quot]Hero Type:[/FONT][FONT=&quot] Psychic[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Power Level:[/FONT][FONT=&quot] Street Level [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Powers:[/FONT] Edward has the ability to see into the past, present, and future. His powers are usually activated by touch, but occasionally his powers will kick on without any catalyst.

[FONT=&quot]Attributes (Select one at each category):

Strength Level:[/FONT]Normal Human

[FONT=&quot]Speed/Reaction Timing Level: [/FONT]Normal Human

[FONT=&quot]Endurance at MAXIMUM Effort: [/FONT]Normal Human

[FONT=&quot]Agility:[/FONT] Normal Human

[FONT=&quot]Intelligence: [/FONT]Average

[FONT=&quot]Fighting Skill: [/FONT]Untrained

[FONT=&quot]Resources: [/FONT]Average

[FONT=&quot]Weaknesses: [/FONT]He's a normal human, so he can be killed by conventional means.

[FONT=&quot]Supporting Characters: [/FONT]Sgt. Nick Pierce, LHPD's Major Case Squad. Bill and Janet Cayce, Edward's parents. Captain Clark Johnson, MCS Commander.

[FONT=&quot]List a few reasons why you've created that character:[/FONT] I loved the Dead Zone book, movie, and TV show. I just liked Johnny Smith's powers and story and I want to kind of do an homage to that and tell some different stories of my own.

Also, I've been wanting to get back into CAH, but I couldn't find a character I wanted to play. Most of the folks I created her I'm play slight versions of them in other RPGs. So this is a chance for me to join in on CAH playing a new character with a new twist and hopefully it'll give me a chance to have fun and keep this dude.

[FONT=&quot]What can you bring to the RPG?: [/FONT]A decent writer. That's it. That's all I'm good for.

[FONT=&quot]Do you know how to post pictures on the hype boards?:[/FONT] Nope.


[FONT=&quot]Sample Post:[/FONT]​
[FONT=&quot]

[/FONT]My breath steams out of my mouth and forks up into the air before dissipating into the cold.​

"You getting anything yet?" Nick asks as he lifts the crime scene tape over my head and I walk under it.​

"Just got here, haven't seen a body yet."

Pierce leads me up the alley to a tarp covered body.​



What are we doing here?


...doing here?




CSI techs are all over the crime scene, snapping photos and collecting evidence. Piece stands over the tarp and pulls it back, revealing a woman underneath. Her body is gray and lifeless, bruises and ligature marks form a perfect circle around her neck.​





We're just going for a stroll


Stroll


Stroll




I bend down and remove the leather glove on my right hand. The buzz is already starting to fill my ears. It's like magnetism. The body is drawing my hand to it. I place my hand on the victim's shoulder and give in.​






********​





The killer walks down the alley arm in arm with the girl. Amy, her name is Amy. I know that because the killer knows that. I can see Amy's face as plain as day, but not the killer's. I'm seeing the crime through his eyes. I am the killer.​



"Where are we doing here?" She asks with a giggle.​



"We're just going for a stroll," I reply with a wink. "It's just a lovely night out here, thought we could take the scenic route home."​



"Why? So we walk down some dark and spooky alley?"​



"Well, it's okay. I'm here to protect you."​



She goes in for a hug and I go in for the kill. I move fast, wrapping my hands around her throat and pushing her up against the wall. She fights, she struggles. It's not enough. Even when her fingernails scratch my face and break the skin, the pain is fleeting. The rush overpowers it. That adrenaline spike pushes me past any kind of human desires or weaknesses.​



There's just the need to kill his *****.​



"Die, *****! DIE! DIE!"​





********​






"Die, *****! DIE! DIE!"



I pull my hands off the body and break the connection. Pierce and the other officers stare at me. Even though it's thirty degrees, I'm sweating. I quickly put my glove back on and stand up on wobbly legs.​



"He-he knew her. They were either lovers or friends. The girl's name is Amy. She lives nearby, her and the killer were on the way home. There's DNA under her fingernails, she scratched him as he strangled her. It wasn't a crime of passion. He wanted to do this, he'd been planning it a long time."



"Thanks for the help, Ed," Pierce says with a pat on the shoulder. "If we can identify the girl, that makes the job almost done."​



I wipe my forehead and look at the cold sweat on my gloved hands.​



"Sure, Nick," I say with a distant tone to my voice. "Happy to help."

Don't encourage his non-Blue Blast work... It was Blue Blast wasn't it..? I mean it's been so long since I've heard anything about Chris Bryde's (?) other life...


Yeah I know. What was that guy's name again? And to think...he was supposed to be famous or something...in fact, didn't he almost become a member of the Guardians?
 
I've tried to start things up with the Blur....again and again. I just can't do it. So I could say I'm playing Blurry again and post once, maybe twice and then run out of creative steam and disappear again. Or I can try to take this character and do something with him.

Either way, everyone can kiss my ass. :cmad:
 
Nah, he'd need to have balls to be called that...


Can you tell we want Blue Blur back???

:woot:
 
Awesome work as usual, trusty.

Kissing ass won't make your Microheroes you requested come out faster. :o

Course doesn't mean you have to stop. :awesome:

Though I just finished a take-home exam for a class that I have literally spent at least 60 hrs in the last few days devoting to for that exam+a project so my time is finally like...free. My last exam is next week so this week I should be able to get some Microheroes done.
 
Don't want to be a massive pain, but I'm going to need some help with the formatting of my posts for the rest of the month and probably the start of January.

I'll be copy-pasting slabs of text for my posts using the PS3, but formatting is "extremely difficult" to "nigh on impossible" on there, so it's either it will just come out as all the same font/style or I'm going to need some help straightening it out by someone who can edit posts.

Sorry for the inconvenience either way. I will continue to post though, keep ticking alone.

Should have time for another later tonight.

Take your time. I really don't need them for a while.:woot:
 
That'll be my last post in correct formatting until early January.

The laptop's going with my GF interstate and since the power surge took out my desktop I'll be down to contributing via copy-paste using my PS3.

I'll still happily contribute, to the point where you probably won't even notice a lapse, but yeah... the formatting just won't be there.

Apologies for any and all inconvenience caused. Barring those inconveniences to Byrd Man, who deserves them and worse since he's still holding out on Blue Blaze...
 
Looks like trusty if he were ever a superhero.
 
Trusty has shared the tapes with us, EBJ. We know you pee the bed.....while standing over it and tooting like a tugboat.
