Yes. I would think you are. This^ -
Biru Energy/Electric/Mu Scrapper Indah ‘Biru’ Sukarnoputri Early Life Indah Sukarnoputri was born in Indonesia. Biru means ‘blue,’ a nickname from childhood due to her oddly firm favorite color, often insisting all her clothes be blue. Biru was seemingly a born scientist. Her parents laughingly recall a constant refrain that she had a "hypothesis" from age 5. She blazed through school and started college a year early. Portal Corp After getting her Master’s degree, Biru became a chemist at Portal Corp where she worked on the continuing research on Superdine, studying safe short term uses. One day at Portal Corp, there was a series of partial power failures and a portal began to oscillate in intensity and directionality. Ten people were killed outright. Despite the best efforts of Portal Crop, Biru could not be found. Sensor and targeting data was fragmented at the time she disappeared, just before the portal exploded. It was a ‘needle in a haystack’ issue, with the added challenge that the ‘needle’ may have been disintegrated or disbursed atomically across the multiverse. All but her parents eventually gave up hope. The Blue Pearl Six months after the incident, Indah Sukarnoputri phoned home. A literal message in a bottle was piggybacked on a portal return signal with identification, coordinates, and a request to send a diplomatic detail. A rescue party and xenoambassador were sent. They were greeted near a beautiful artificial reef pool by a blue, bioluminescent Biru waving excitedly and circled by a party of 1 to 2 meter tall cuttlefish-like creatures, with lavishly adorned shells. Their hosts‘ name for themselves, Biru laughingly explained, was basically ‘home sapiens,’ in translation. “They call their shells ‘homes,’ so it makes sense!” Biru would later explain she had been flung into this version of Earth nearly dead. The ‘homeys,’ as she calls them for short, raced to save her. Their medical technology was largely based around rapid healing. An approach that was not viable for humans without the right mutations, often going cancerous. Their best doctors and scientists were only able to save her through gene splicing. Novel process that it was, with them not understanding human metabolism, the DNA changes manifested in much more powerful ways in Biru. Which when she first awoke, was very problematic. The homeys communicate electropathically. Biru could sense that they were trying to communicate, even if the ‘words,’ made no sense ….”seemed like math though” but her attempts at replying would stun the homeys. The two species worked at it. Biru figured out that the messages they were sending her were essentially vector drawings. They resorted to sending signals to her directly with her using a tablet to draw her responses. Being fluent in five human languages, she mostly figured it out in a few months. ..”it is a bit like Chinese, except all the parts of speech have distinct shells…haa…and emotional and structural meaning is color based. Though that is like, the trade language, some of their languages are like abstract art just in simple sentences.” “This was first contact for them. I lived like a celebrity mermaid in many ways. Oh ya, [shows her gill slits] gills!!…..working gills! I had a lovely foster family …and incidentally the DNA change cured my shellfish allergy…Ya getting back, so I didn't set right away to coming back because I had rather profound amnesia. But once my memory came back, while I could make casual conversation at that point, it took longer to explain portal technology. They had imagined there was sentient life out in the universe, but had assumed I had come from a spaceship.” A year after returning to her own Earth, tourism to and from the Blue Pearl (their name for Earth) is thriving. Biru visits her foster family as often as she can between her continuing work both at Portal Corp and with Longbow.

Red Curry Mutant Brute Super Strength Radiation Armor Pyre Mastery Species - Human Ethnicity - English/Columbian Height - 5'1" / 6'4"ish Weight - varies from 45kgs/100 pounds to 133 kgs/295 pounds Hair - Black / Red Eyes - Brown / Yellow Skin - Off-white / Red Rena Marie Curry AKA Red Curry had a latent mutation that started manifesting in last adolescence. She began absorbing natural environmental radiation increasing her strength and size. This was initially subtle by super heroic standards, on the scale of turning a petite young woman into an Olympic athlete temporarily. In hindsight, there was, even then, a slight red shade to her skin when “amped up.” It was on a ‘take your child to work day’ with her father, who was a chemical physicist at a local nuclear power plant, that she fully became the ‘Red Curry’ her community knows and loves. She was rather instinctively drawn to the reactor. In a fit, she could only describe as a blackout, she smashed through several walls and hugged the reactor. Thankfully, nobody was injured. In fact, all the radiation that one might fear would be released, she absorbed. It took several years of study before she could redirect energy and use it for healing, on the rare occasion that the near invulnerability it provided her failed. https://fbsa.homecoming.wiki/wiki/Red_Curry ____ I've turned this character into a beast over time and a lot of respecs, thought I should actually write a bio. In game, I have two costumes, regular small human in shorts and a school shirt and sneakers and big Red Curry which adds glowing eyes, red skin of course, and loses her shoes. In my head cannon, the shoes are the one issue they still haven't found the right stretchy material for the soles. 😛 She was originally SS/Fire, but just wasn't tough enough for general missioning/task forces, though never got her incarnated. IOd to a silly amount she is 45% melee defense 90 smash, lethal, fire resists 75 energy 60s on cold, toxic, negative so psionic is the only real hole at 25%ish But with 400% regen and a heal, no biggie. And with the combo of fury, Meltdown, and Rage and IOs, regularly self-buffed damage at 375-400%.

Pearline - Spines/Bio Scrapper Pearline's online dating profile: LF: M, F, open minded about non-humans. Yes, that's not lighting, I change colors. 🙂 I’m a mutant blessed with chromatophores which are great for blending into your surroundings and fashion! Some particular deal breakers for dating me: though most would describe me as petite at 155cm / 5’1”, size 0, I weigh 190 kilos/418 pounds. I also, sometimes uncontrollably, sprout plates..think Miss. Stegosaurus America (ya no pics of that, not attractive). So I'm compatible with someone that is invulnerable or similar. When not fighting crime or corruption (no white collar criminals that think they're above the law need dm me) I read a lot, enjoy Netflix n Chill. I'd love to travel more, for other than super work, and I'd love to meet someone serious that I could travel with. But seriously, I'm not trying to be all 'lets meet and immediately plan wedding' but I'm getting on in age and I am trying to move on from flings. Cool? Dm me...<3 Origin The mechanisms of Pearline Gauthier’s mutations are not known. She was born with skin that undulated in an array of colors and small spikes. Testing would show the spikes were made of calcium carbonate, not unlike seashells. Other DNA testing showed commonalities with Cuttlefish as to her chromatophores (color changing) and iridophores (light reflecting) cells. She experienced an exponential growth in the speed to which she could grow spikes and armor in puberty, changing her life from a self-conscious and shy youth (It is somewhat easy for shyness to be amplified with natural camouflage of course) into a viable super hero. In game, and I have multiple copies with different skin color.

Emma Corleone, 1950 Origin Emma Corleone grew up in a traveling circus. Her father was a magician. Her mother was a fortune teller but had died in childbirth. Possibly attributed to the birth complications, Emma was mute. Despite those challenges, Emma thrived. Her father was devoted and kind. And the small circus was like a big family. The entire circus, in fact, learned sign language so they could understand Emma. (They also found it came in handy often in the fleecing of the rubes). Emma became adept at many of the little jobs around the place. She loved to travel and was living her best life. She was a teen when, in a western town in the U.S., religious fundamentalists were protesting the circus. The clowns improvised such a display around the preacher that he vowed the wrath of god. God did not come but some of the congregation slipped in in the night and sought to burn the circus out. Of course the circus had staff on watch and they mostly failed, but Emma’s wagon, frankly cluttered with such a manner of magician props, caught and spread quickly. As her father ran back when he saw the fire (he had joined the fight), Emma exploded from the burning wagon ashen white (she was Italian and Romani so… not her natural color). She grabbed a hammer and chased the remaining men away. Unbeknownst even to her circus family, she was apparently super strong, fireproof, and largely indestructible. By morning, the house of every militant congregant who had joined the attack, the church, and indeed many in between, were rubble. Powers Despite looking like a skinny teen, she seems to be able to drastically increase her mass at will. Emma can phase shift as needed and sometimes will avoid damage thus. When attacking, she has strong vulnerabilities to many types of damage and can heal rapidly. She has limited telepathy, though it tends to be effective only with those she knows well. Her thought projections come as a jumble of imagery that is somewhat idiosyncratic particularly if you don’t know American Sign Language. Emma does not seem to have aged since that the day of the attack on the circus.

Ever come back to a AT + Power and find greatness?
blackhand replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
Yes. Ive gotten better, as the alts got into the 20s, in keeping notes as to why I shelved or neglected someone. Those are good to review as sometimes they help me realize I was missing something. For example, when I see someone else rocking well and good with something I poo pooed. Often, I hold things to too high a solo power standard for one. -

I cant remember anyone’s name, so I use the note function. It is also helpful to not post lfg messages when they’re raining down. Wait for a natural lull. -
The Ghost of New York I went full in to the water magic concept for this Blaster. Water blast, Dark, Leviathan. AI Art. Took many a try to get it to do what I wanted for this one. I wanted the clothing and the sharks to look watery. Full bio Transcript of Interview with Manhattan Detective David Graves “First, there was this string of odd %^&$. Spring of 2020- Muggers drowned; a drug dealer dying ..the ME said was shark bites, a pimp froze to death, in Spring, in the street. Then came the massacre of the Maruszczyk crime ‘family.’ Their restaurant was a horror show..a front of course, but good eats…anyway..to the man, frozen, shark bit, drowned, drowned not in a sink, just drowned. We barely had the call when a woman, all in white, walked into the precinct. She had a hard drive of evidence on them, far beyond our records, and we’d been on them for 8 years. She stuck around for questioning for a bit but I went to get her a coffee and.. I was 12 feet away mind you…poof. There was nothing but a puddle on my floor. We had surveillance footage of course, there too - poof, But we circulated some stills. She was IDd as Emi Kimura. Ya, the nightclub singer. The one who drowned back in 2018. Foul play suspected but no leads. That was the start of the crime families getting wiped out. She doesn’t even come by any more…just sends me a big zip file of evidence via Dropbox. A ghost using &^*& Dropbox.” FBSA link https://fbsa.homecoming.wiki/wiki/Ghost_of_New_York

جادوگر درخت AKA Samarkand Magic Dominator Plant control/Darkness/Soul Early Life Samarkand will tell you she is not actually from Samarkand. But her home town is no longer on any map. When she was born around 1200 A.D., she lived outside what is now Samarkand in southeastern Uzbekistan. After the Mongols invaded the Khwarezmian Empire in 1219, she was buried alive as a witch. She doesn’t remember a lot from that time. The End of a Long Sleep She was unearthed by archaeologists in 2018. What they thought they found was an intricate face carved into a massive tree stump. But after they brought in lighting to begin carefully excavating the carving and massive root system, the face began to speak. It kept repeating a single word - the old Persian word for water. Current Life Although she has been acting in all respects as a proper hero since getting reoriented, authorities still have her under observation due to initial instability. The Persian language has changed a lot over that time. That largely is why she doesn’t mind being called Samarkand. Farsi speakers don’t pronounce Firuzeh as she remembers. Powers Firuzeh never studied magic formally. It was always something that came naturally to her. The fact that all her power is ultimately drawn from the Netherworld was a complete surprise to her. Though her memory is deeply fragmented, her earliest memory of her magic was simply being upset that a flower her father had given her mother had died. She looked at it lovingly and dark tendrils came from the ground and healed it. The following is classified at FC Level 3: Insert clearance code to enable. Firuzeh can photosynthesize and ‘eat’ through her skin. For her own rapid healing, she essentially rapidly stitches her own wounds with plant based fibers. These eventually seem to return to something more like skin. Perhaps not for the faint of heart, while she prefers to empower the growth of plants in dirt to ensnare those she is sent to arrest, she can grow plants from within a foe.

Hunter K Thompson Make him look as much as possible like HK-47 from Knights of the Old Republic. His ‘secret’ identity is as a journalist. Writing stories about famous meatbags.
