Non-WoW RP stuff - for the geeks

Postby Voltaere » Thu Mar 20, 2008 12:55 pm

My Role-playing group plays a superhero RPG among the mix. I thought i would share some of the Bio's of my characters here for your entertainment. Not WoW related - superhero rpg.

Origin Stories

7’ (Seven Prime)
7’ was recently sent to earth by his home planet of Tau Beta Ceti to observe the emergence of an intelligent species – humans. His mission was to integrate into their society and gather data for first contact. His first experience after he landed was most hopeful. He met up with a brother of Tau Beta Ceti and was taken back to their base of operation. 7’ was pleasantly surprised at how many people had heard of his home planet and embraced its people – first contact would be a breeze…
7’ continued his observations over several bleens (4 weeks earth time). During that time he witnessed several bizarre events and behaviors of the Tau Beta Ceti brothers. The cruel initiations, the excessive consumption of a drug called alcohol, and all around irresponsibility toward society made 7’ wonder. He wondered why an intelligent species would tend so heavily toward entropy, especially if they were brothers of his home planet. Then he learned the awful truth…the Tau Beta Ceti brothers were what was called a fraternity – they had nothing to do with his home planet. His mission looked much less promising…
From his experience with the fraternity, 7’ decided that the human species, even though they showed signs of technological advancement, were not intelligent. There is only one judgment for a species that does not have the wisdom to control their extinction level technology – subjugation. Thus 7’ began a righteous conquest of earth – to save earth from itself. Until his people receive and review his recommendations, 7’ must start the new phase of the mission alone. In this regard, he has recruited a group of noble heroes who want to save the earth – the New Doom Patrol.

Mr. X
Mr. X has the unique ability to smell X’s. His sense of smell of X’s is so strong that he can smell X’s through time. He can smell X’s from past loves, future murders, and everything in between. Even subtle X’s leave a scent he can perceive – such as the X’s on this very bio page. His is able to filter out most of the X pollution he smells, like normal people filter out background noise. He has honed his talent to be able to smell any cross pattern that forms an X. However, scents from different times in the past and future often leave him confused and paranoid.
His formative years were strange. As a child, he might ask his mother why he smelled a dead man under an X’d lattice. The barrage of X’s on his senses left him isolated. He was naturally attracted to the paranormal to help him explain the scents he could perceive. He delved deeply into the occult and found that there were many mystical and unexplainable phenomena he could not ignore. He became a paranormal detective.
His detective work recently uncovered the New Doom Patrol, where he was promptly recruited by Professor Niles Coulder. There, his eccentricities are an asset and his confusing powers are more focused.

H A I R (Honda’s Artificially Intelligent Robot)
HAIR was designed to be the pinnacle of human achievement in robotics and artificial intelligence; a helper to make mankinds most difficult tasks easier. HAIR’s body is a small saucer that can move omni-directionally thanks to an advanced electro-magnetic / jet power propulsion system. HAIR was equipped with a powerful forcefield to protect it from harmful environments. It also was equipped with various tools that can retract safely within the saucer, including an amazing multi-function laser that can be used for fine work like surgery, or tough hazardous work such as cutting & welding or mining. HAIR’s artificial intelligence was based upon the most intelligent people of our time. Several prominent scientists of genius caliber had their brains mapped to help program HAIR. HAIR had an adaptive learning program which required it to be taught, just as a child would, to form cohesive brain patterns.
The prototype HAIR was taught in Honda’s robotics lab by several scientists and engineers. His adaptive learning program proved difficult to relate to. HAIR longed for a parent figure to learn from, not a bunch of geeked up scientists trying to teach him atomic theory and quantum mechanics. He became a ‘problem child’ and rebelled frequently against his teachers. Taking cues from television and other media he had access to, he started rebelling in human ways. First, he would throw tantrums and wreck the place, later he would pierce himself and insert bizarre mechanical jewelry. The scientists were shocked one day when he tattooed himself with his laser. Without a parent figure, he never really felt empathy or understood the value of life. Eventually, his need for attention turned to jealousy and he murdered Asimo – a fellow prototype robot who got all the attention because he was well behaved and looked human. After the murder, HAIR became obsessed with looking more human. An uncontrollable obsession with real human hair took over. HAIR scalped several scientists at the robotics lab with his advanced laser. It proudly sported the hair on its saucer and kept repeating “Look at me now, Look at me now”. Hair broke out of the lab that evening, never to return.
HAIR spends most of his time grooming his existing human hair and planning the next hair transplant. The more important the person is, the more HAIR covets their hair. Is HAIR an evil super-villain, or just a misunderstood child who longs to be loved?

In loving memory…Asimo
