The Silver Age: OOC

Hello there, it's Chris (aka Amy, Raven, and Dean) here to introduce my fourth character, Alata from the Super Sentai series Tensou Sentai Goseiger (aka the Japanese shows that Power Rangers are based on). His full app, plus helpful links to Wikipedia articles and Ranger Central database entries are over on his journal if you want the full story, but I'll try to summarize it up quick for you.

Alata is what's called a Gosei Angel, which is basically a race of humans who developed elemental-based powers thousands of years ago and decided to separate themselves from humanity by moving to Gosei World, all the while using their abilities to watch over and protect the Earth. Gosei World is connected to Earth by a giant tower called Heaven's Tower. Evil aliens destroy Heaven's Tower in an attempt to prevent the Gosei Angels from standing in the way of them taking over the planet. The only Gosei Angels left on Earth are Alata and four other trainee Angels.

Alata comes from the Skick (pronounced "Sky-ke," as compared to Landick and Seaick) Tribe of Gosei Angels, and as such has air-based abilities, like the ability to blow things around in the wind, track the presence of evil via the wind, and a high sensitivity to sound-based attacks (since sound waves travel through the air). Like all Gosei Angels, he can also make himself invisible to hide from the sight of humans. He uses a device called a Tensouder and special Gosei cards to transform into Gosei Red, summon weapons and mechs, and perform various attacks/techniques. Alata will be showing up in New York without his full set of Gosei Cards, 'cause it doesn't make much sense for him to be running around in a giant robot. Not that he could, anyway, since that sort of thing would require his teammates.

Aaaaanyway, long story short, Alata is an airhead (literally) and a derp, but he cares about people and will do anything he can to protect the Earth and the humans who live there. Yoroshiku ne!

This guy would.

Hello, friends! This is Liv (player of Cloud, Locke, Lee and Remus) with her fifth (and final for now? Jenni knows my history with these fancy "last character slots") character Yoshiya "Joshua" Kiryu from the 2008 Nintendo DS action RPG The World Ends With You by SquareENIX because I miss having the only character in a fandom! And it's an awesome game, let me tell you that, if a schizophrenic one.

Anyway, so I should probably tell you about Joshua. In canon, he appears to be about 15-years old (because everyone there is 15 and the enemies are like, 18 or something, hay Japan market-base!) but in this game, I'm raising him to look at most in his early 20s because PBs are hard to come by. But he only appears to be so because no one really knows his age. He's not really human see; I call him a cosmic force with, admittedly, slightly god-like powers and responsibilities. In canon, his job is to judge the worth of men, see who lives and who dies, and his powers are of the telekinetic nature and he can summon down beams of light, too, and levitate himself and paralyze people. He does this physically by using his cell phone which also has an insane flash mechanism that stuns people. Impractical but helpful when fighting against a pincer battle.

And for being all that, he is unapologetically a snob, an arrogant know-it-all who sees himself in a higher place than mortals because he, well, isn't. It's because of that and the nature of his canon fandom that he won't be surprised at all with the situation in New York because the game actually involved something like it -- and he's behind it.

For the longer but more sensible version of Joshua, you can check out his profile here. Plotseses and stuff? Yes, please. My AIM's still slidersjoypops and you can always e-mail me over at islivonmars @gmail.com and I am always on it at work. :B This goes for Cloud, Locke, Lee and Remus, too! I know these boys have a couple of open logs and unfinished ones under their wings but hay, logging partners, they're like Pokemons, right? Gotta catch 'em all! \o/

Edit; OT but gys! Check out Google's tribute to Freddie Mercury, it's pretty cool! ♥

Chris again (also playing Amy and Raven), w/ my third active character, Dean Thomas. Dean's coming in right around November 1997, meaning somewhere in Book 7 after he goes on the run but before he hooks up with Griphook the goblin. I'm looking forward to playing with the rest of the HP cast, and with having him meet everyone else as well.

Dean was raised as a muggle in London, so he's a city boy at heart, just not... this city. ;P

Anyway, drop me a comment/email/message/whatever.

And bundle up nice and warm!

Hola, Patricia here with my fourth character *shifty eyes*

This here is Romanadvoratrelundar aka Romana (II) from Doctor Who. She is a Time Lady and a former companion of the Fourth incarnation of the Doctor. I'm bringing her sometime after her last appearance on the show (Warrior's Gate) so she has spent the last decades in a small universe known as E-Space, pretty much saving the day and learning new things the way the Doctor does in this universe.

As she is a new arrival she is not aware of how many times the Doctor has regenerated already (but she won't be surprised) and doesn't know about the Time War either. She's a nice person once you get to know her, but she's also a bit odd so I'm sure she'll fit right in. :D

And I think that's it for now. Let me know if you have any plot bunnies for her!

Hi everyone! I'm Samantha and I'm the new kid on the block. :) I'm a 24-year-old upstate NY native working as an Education Coordinator for a local museum, and I'm bringing you Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan of Kathryn Stockett's amazing novel The Help. I haven't seen the film yet but I can't wait!

Skeeter (no one calls her Eugenia except her mother) was born and raised in Jackson, Mississippi and is contemporary to the game timeline. She has never fit the mold of the perfect young Southern woman of means, although she tried for many years to be someone she was not. Skeeter recently came into her own through the writing and publishing of Help, a book about the lives and stories of several black housekeepers in Jackson. For obvious reasons, the book was published anonymously, but Skeeter has learned a lot through her journey and is no longer afraid of the person she really is. She's opinionated and always tries to push boundaries -- to test ideas to their limit and prod them for weaknesses and flaws. Help was a huge success and scandal, but Skeeter is realizing her dream of being a writer when it's popularity earned her a job with Stein Publishing in Manhattan. Now, away from the stifling constraints of what is "proper" in the South, Skeeter is excited and nervous about what lies ahead for her. You can read more about her personality and background here!

So! Skeeter needs friends, enemies, potential suitors... whatever! I'm usually pretty flexible and will generally go with whatever ideas people want to chuck at me. You can find me on AIM at DrunkennLullaby or email me at hall.samantha.z at gmail dot com. Can't wait to play with y'all!
