4th Arc Continued

The six children were all born at the same facility, and have memories of each other, and communicate, rarely, as they grow. They are drilled to view each other as part of a team, and they are prepared for the day when they will have the fight the original Six. They grow, train, and prepare, until one day their homes are shattered by squads of troops led by members of the Pantheon. The New Six barely escape, and with Rapjit psychically guiding them, they meet u and plan a counter offensive. They work in tandem better then the Original Six, and work together to take down the members of the Pantheon, to eventually get to their leaders.
(I have a list of who beats whom in the Pantheon, but for simplicity's sake, I'll skip to the final showdown).

The showdown boils down to:
* Rubi Red vs Randel Tex
*Rapjit Sepf vs Roger Crycheck
*Lilliana Lafey vs Bud Suffield
*Levi Stone vs Hernan Guerrero
*Dawn Trehern vs Cyreen Ninian
*Peter Huron vs Eva Helmsly

Fall of the Six:
In a climactic and earth shattering battle, the two Sixes meet in a devastating finale. During the battle, there comes an unexpected lull in the fight between Roger and Rapjit, as Rapjit senses a plan in Roger's mind. Roger and Cyreen had undergone a project together, where they had managed to re-create the Hurst device, but instead of drawing inter-dimensional energy in, it would suck it out. They had planned to use it to remove anyone with powers in the world, by the device that would meltdown after it was used. Rapjit sends out this plan, psychically to everyone on the battlefield, causing everyone to halt and let Roger explain. Roger had come to the conclusion that the world would never be as it should be as long as power over the world was in the hands of a few, and now with the Deus Roma having no chance of ever returning, that the Six should leave and let people make their own way in the world.
     Roger tells the New Six that if they stay, then they will eventually either be forced to rule, or be used as pawns by those who do rule. And due to the inter-dimensional energies that effect their aging process, they would have to inflict countless horrors on people during their lifetimes. The machine opens a wormhole, and the original Six, being convinced by Roger and Cyreen, walk through, with Roger stopping to turn back and say that the portal will be open for five minutes longer, before it melts down, and a shock-wave erupts out, sending everyone to alternate dimensions. He says he doesn't know them, but that if they want to stay together, their best bet would be to enter the wormhole now, and then he is gone. There is a brief pause, but then the New Six follow Roger into the portal and disappear, leaving the world devoid of shadow groups and power that no one person should have. For once in it's history, mankind is finally free to decide it's own fate, with no one pulling strings. And for now, the fate of the Sixes is unknown.

Arc 4 The New Six

Years pass, and the Six find that finally they seem to be entering a period of relative peace, allowing Cyreen to focus on studying the Newstone incident extensively, and in doing so she comes to a revelation she shares with the others. The inter dimensional energy that was released by the Hurst device may have lain dormant in some of the survivors, and it may have been passed on biologically. This leads the Six to search for the listed survivors, and find that some survivors do have traces of inter-dimensional energy, but they aren't threats (due to age, status, or whatever) and are properly contained.
However, they notice that some people are missing, and they come to believe that the Deus Roma had taken them before being deposed, which leads Six to attempt to find the missing survivors or any potential offspring.

The Deus Roma had managed to collect some survivors, and managed to produce six children who were meant to solidify the Deus Roma's power after the death of the original Six, but with the fall of the Deus Roma, the children were sent to separate bases, and the hidden bases eventually lost their identity and became tight knit enclaves, hiding from the Six's searches. They have bases in India, Canada, East Africa, the South Pole, Caribbean, and the Balkans.

Arc 3 Misc.


New powers!

Eva- With focus, can have her shadow tendrils infect people's minds, causing them to hallucinate or subtly influence them. Is also much less affected by bright light, and the distance she can draw shadows from has increased.

Hernan- Can now create a seismic wave of force (via ground pound) and possesses superhuman strength and super hard skin.

Bud- Stands around ten feet tall, has incredible regenerative abilities (like a lizard), and can breathe an acidic fire that can melt through reinforced steel.

Roger- Can heal from what should be deadly blows, nearly instantly by using time acceleration powers on his own body in conjunction with a nano-machine immune system boost. Wears a special cybernetic helmet that further accentuates his ability to slow down time without tiring himself, and increasing the duration.

Cyreen- Can control wireless machines mentally, overriding remote control or on-board programing to hack into most military vehicles and systems, rendering them useless against her. Works one way, so she cannot be hacked herself.

Randel- has acquired a mastery of the weather, and can effortlessly manifest icy constructs in humid air. Can also "fly" by manipulating the wind.
Arc 3 Continued

So, the Six settle in as world leaders, with access to R&D departments and media influence. They each take to leadership in different ways (Cyreen has developed an implant for Bud that allows him to speak) and their popularity quickly dwindles as they are forced to deal with rebellious factions and dissent in a firm and definitive fashion. This firmness quickly gives way to near brutality in some cases, and the Six turn to science to develop a way to ensure they have supremacy.

Cyreen and Roger develop a method of giving powers (non-evolving, random, and not at the same level as theirs) and they use it to create The Pantheon, a group of 60 loyal followers who act as enforcers. The members of the Pantheon are chosen from those who each of the Six trust/feel are loyal. Because there are so many of them ( and I have a hard copy of them all written down) I'm going to mention two that are important for later, and just move on from there.

Important members of the Pantheon are: 

*Grendal Magelock- Hernan's second in command, (Grendal is not his real name, but its the moniker he adopted as a criminal) helped Hernan hide from authorities, and aided him throughout his journey as much as possible. Is loyal, but does posses a massive chip on his shoulder. Is brutal, vicious. fearless, sadistic, and honors any promise he makes.
Powers- Superhuman Strength, near impenetrable skin, resistant to elements and chemicals, doesn't burn when exposed to flame. 

*Angel Lalette- Bud's second in command. Blind, but brilliant, and has strong romantic feelings for Bud, and figured out that Bud was now physically a monster and stuck by him. Sweet, kind, balances out Bud's distrust of people with her empathy.
Powers-High level telepath, (can talk directly to Bud mentally), can fly via telekinesis, can "see" by using a her psychic powers. Can throw enemies around with her mind, invade their minds (if within range), and can predict enemy movements, making her hard to tag in combat. Also possesses a high voltage taser cane.

At this point the Six have studied themselves scientifically and have come to a realization that throughout the time they have gained powers, they have not seemed to age, and if so, at an imperceptible rate. As their reign goes on their powers develop further (will detail them in next post) and everyday citizens become more and more resentful while simultaneously fearing them.
Also, it's important to note that access to Deus Roma data and funds have allowed Cyreen to make technological leaps, especially in the field of nano machines.

Arc 3-Rise of the Six/New Gods Pt.1

So, this is the arc where I introduce my first villain; the organization that has been pushing public perception against the Six and maintaining the high level manhunt. Basically, they are my version of the illuminati, The Deus Roma (my Latin is pretty rusty, but it was meant to imply a connection to the Roman Empire) is a shadowy organization that has been running the world for centuries, and has crushed any potential opposition to their power. Dr. Hurst's device was a project of theirs, and when he failed them, he was disposed of, and his research and ideas blacklisted, and the device placed behind glass to be forgotten. The explosion and the birth of the Six has been the first event in ages where the Deus Roma have no idea what has happened, but see the Six as a clear threat , and their heavy pressure is an attempt to quash or get a grip on the situation.
     This attempt works less and less in their favor the longer they use it, and the Six all become very aware of them, and use that knowledge to slowly sway public opinion over to their side, and eventually learn the location of their main base/mainframe. The Six come together and crack open the Deus Roma stronghold and turn off their mainframe.
     This leads to the public gaining knowledge of the Deus Roma, and the extent of their control in governments, and revolutions begin all over the world. Leaders topple and a power vacuum is created with no one to step into a role as leader. In the zeal of the moment, the Six step into roles as leaders and are initially heralded as heroes. But then things begin to change...

2nd Arc- The Hunted Six

The general public is sold the idea that the Six were responsible for the explosion (except Bud, they think he's just a monster) and great leaps are made to connect them to each other, with Roger's activities "leaked" by the FBI leading to them all considered criminals of some kind. This leads to a massive manhunt between federal and local law enforcement. As well as some criminal and corporate elements.

This intense coverage does make them all aware that each other exists, and leads to each of them meeting briefly before going on their ways. They also realize that none of them are responsible for the accident, as the only one with the scientific knowledge to perhaps activate it would be Cyreen, who had been no where near the machine for several days and admittedly thought the machine's presence to be a joke. The media is less understanding however, and spin a story of dread that turns the public opinion against the Six.

Throughout this span of time, the Six have various adventures, close calls, and experiences, and through it all they become aware that someone is pulling the strings of this hunt, and they all separately and simultaneously want to know why. Also, their powers begin to evolve, and they begin to experience abilities.

Eva- Has learned to manifest wings of shadow, which grant her flight (nearly limitless at night) and allows for less draining transport than manifesting. Her skin has also begun to store light which she can release as blinding flashes. Not really an offensive power, but it allows her to use high light situations to her advantage.
*mental changes-Has grown up quick out of necessity, emotionally imbalanced from her life as a fugitive. Is no longer traveling with Randel, as they drew too much attention. Has become good at disguising herself.

Hernan- Can now shoot a stream of fire directly from his hands. His body has also grown abnormally strong, allowing him to resist a great deal of trauma that would keep a normal person down.
*mental changes-Still mourns the loss of his family, uses his anger to keep from falling into despair.

Bud- Can exude a corrosive toxin from his claws which he is immune from. Can also imbue his bite with acidic properties as well. Has grown an extra 12 inches tall.
*mental changes- Resents being treated as a monster, which translates to a cunning and savage style of combat for those who try to cross him. Misses conversations, but does enjoy the natural strengths of his new body.

Roger- Through use, can now slow down time even longer and with less fatigue. Has also developed a slight six sense, allowing him to hit targets without aiming, but is only really accurate at short ranges, and he tries not to over rely on it.
*mental changes- Has become very focused and committed to  learning what has happened to the Six, who is behind it, and what their limits are. Has spent a good deal of time expanding his knowledge of sciences and advanced technology.

Cyreen- The outermost layer of metal on her body has become malleable, allowing her to shape shift and to look like other people (complete with pigment). Can also mimic any voice, which allows her to blend in easier then the rest.
*mental changes- Is already feeling more than human, and shows the least mercy to those who try and harm her. Spends a good deal of time trying to find the awnsers to what happened at the Museum, when not on the run.

Randel- Can radiate a cold aura which chills anyone within range, and freeze any liquid nearby. The aura allows him to gain traction on icy surfaces, which makes trying to fight him hand to hand, even harder. Has also gained a slight ability to manipulate the weather, but nothing major.
*mental changes- Is distrustful of most people he encounters, and finds that he is growing tired of the negativity thrown at him and the other Six when he knows he did nothing wrong. Dislikes seeing the little guy get stepped on.

Monday, March 2, 2015

Just a heads up, a few of the upcoming arcs are going to be explained rather quickly, with key points being highlighted, and maybe more detail to come later.
The Hurst Explosion Aftermath

Eva awakens alone and begins freaking out when she realizes what has happened. She is in such a state that her overwhelming desire to get away activates her powers, and she finds herself rushing through the shadows of the rubble in an effort to escape. Before she knows what has happened, she finds herself in downtown Newstone, exhausted and scared on a rooftop. And above all, all alone. Until a man in a battered hat climbs up and talks her out of her fear, and they agree to find out what has happened.

Hernan's grief is so intense at the loss of his wife and son, that his powers activate and burn out of control, turning the nearby flames into a pillar of fire that recedes as he slowly comes to grips with whats happened. His grief turns to rage when a guard pulls a gun on him, mistaking Hernan's connection with fire to have something to do with the explosion. Hernan's powers cause the nearby flames to attack the guard which is witnessed by several first responders which causes the situation to deteriorate, forcing Hernan to fight his way out of the ruins and eventually escape west, into one of the cities boroughs.

Bud is in shock at feeling himself in an alien form. His confusion and fear leads him to appear like a monster, an effect magnified by his inability to speak. This unfortunate misunderstanding causes police to attack him, causing him to injure several officers and damage cars as he makes his way south into the forest to lose his pursuers and collect his wits.

Roger slips out of the building nearly unseen, as his training kicks in. The only one who sees him is the civilian he saved when the blast hit. At a safe house, he would see on TV, that the individual had seen him, and told the media about the man who had saved his life and what he looked like. In essence, ending Roger's anonymity. Still Roger realizes something was odd about how easy he slipped away and after doing a tests, realizes he can manipulate time around him.

Cyreen is initially taken aback by the outward change in her body, but as logic would dictate, turns her attention to the task of escaping the crumbling lab she is in. Quickly she realizes the extent of her strength and busts her way past the steel walls and exits the building on the alley side, much to the shock of several onlookers. She quickly makes her way, as inconspicuously and quickly as possible, back to her apartment to run tests and figure out what happened to her.

The first thing Randel does when he comes to, is to stabilize his brother, who insists he'll be fine and that Randel should go search for more survivors, as there is no apparent danger at the moment and the EMTs are on their way. Randel helps a few people as best he can, before hearing a scream and seeing shadowy "something" dart by, which leads him to try an chase after it. This intent to chase causes his powers to kick in, and before he knows it, finds himself frost dashing after the figure. taken aback by this sudden speed, he falters behind after a momentary halt, until finally reaching a rooftop, where he finds young girl wreathed in shadows. She is scared out of her wits, but the two of them talk and decide to stick together for now until they figure out what has happened.

The Device

    Within the Scientific Museum and Research Center is a device created by an eccentric yet brilliant scientist named Dr Hurst. The device (Called the Hurst Device now) was supposed to open doorways into alternate universes to perhaps discover alternate advanced forms of energy, or perhaps using the act of dimensional breach itself as renewable energy sources. It was viewed as a dubious, even laughable attempt by the mainstream scientific community, and was financed almost entirely by Dr. Hurst with no real outside support. When the day finally came to demonstrate the device to the media it initially seemed as if the device might work, as some small distortions could be seen, but the device was only set at low power.
     This caused people to laud Dr. Hurst and to await his next demonstration with anticipation. The next trial was done at full power and turned into a complete debacle. The machine nearly exploded and the distortions injured several onlookers. This failure led to Dr Hurst being completely disgraced and died shortly thereafter in poverty. The device was placed in the museum as a curio, with the assumption that it can't be reactivated, and it is still a source of morbid scientific curiosity. Is mysteriously activated, 40 years later. Except this time, no one can stop it in time and the device explodes, sending a shock wave of energy out in a 360 degree angle in a localized area, destroying much of the building. Each of the six are there for different reasons, but they are all effected by the blast and gain powers as a result of the mulch-dimensional energies.

-Eva is there to check out an exhibit on musical technology throughout history with a two friends. One is killed, and the other is injured.
-Hernan is visiting the states with his son and wife, and plans to tell them he's retiring from wrestling to be able to spend more time with them both. They are both killed in the resulting explosion.
-Bud is in Newstone to visit an old friend and it just killing time before they meet up.
-Roger is scouting the museum to prepare for a target who will be there in a few weeks. During the explosion, saves a stranger from falling debris.
-Cyreen works at the museum in the research department, due to a rare particle accelerator that is housed within. Many of her colleges are killed nearly instantly by the blast
-Randel is visiting his brother, who has an internship there. His brother is crippled by the blast.
The Super Six is my contribution to the "If superheroes were real genera" without being a parody or parable. It starts in the fictional city of Newstone, wherein our initial six main characters will meet destiny. Now the six characters run the spectrum on the scale of morality from socially accepted evil to socially accepted good.The event that gives them powers is in the Science and Research Center of Newstone, which I'll get into later, but for now, lets meet the players:

-Powers: Shadow- manipulation, can make shadows tangible as long as she is in contact with said shadow, and can absorb shadows to give her a larger personal shadow to work with. Can manifest/teleport to any point connected by a shadow(is physically draining), or can use shadow as a grapple/tether to climb up to high places. Can form simple objects out of shadow or teleport small objects connected to shadows to her position. Because her powers rely on shadow, they can be weakened in the presence of strong light. Inversely, her powers are strongest at night, making her powers fluctuate based on day or night.
*Strength-Average, fit but not anything out of the ordinary.
*Speed- Average on her own, shadow teleport can give her a quick burst to escape or close distance.
*Energy Projection- Runs the spectrum between OK and powerhouse, depending on various factors.
*Defense- relies on stealth/teleport/barriers to avoid danger, but has no real armor to speak of.
*Fighting Ability- has the know how, but no real combat experience
*Intelligence-Deductively brilliant, but not very scientific.

Hernan "Kilgore" Guerrero- 30-was an orphan in Mexico, skilled kickboxer, became a lucha libre wrestler, is married to Sarita Cruz and has a son Pablo, is bilingual, and despite his tough upbringing does his best to do whats right.
-Powers: Fire- Can pyrokinetically engulf any of his limbs/body in flame, potentially hot enough to melt bullets before they can penetrate his skin, and con control any fire he himself does not emit ( he can set a fire and then control THAT fire, but not the fire his body emits) so fuel source effects his potential output, and is immune to fire.
*Strength-Very strong, due to the requirements of his job.
*Speed-Excellent cardio, light feet, trained gymnast.
*Energy Projection-Low to medium depending on his fuel source
*Fighting Ability-Legit kickboxer, practical fighter, and has some knowledge of firearms.
*Intelligence- Streetsmart not booksmart.

Bud Suffield- 36- Caucasian, was a four star chef for years until he was able to follow a budding passion as a survival expert, expert hunter and tracker, intelligent naturalist, and a bit of a luddite.
-Powers:Reptillianation- Has the frame of a 7+ foot frame, armor like scales, strong teeth and claws, keen eyesight, bloodhound like sense of smell, slightly better hearing than normal, has a slight ability to sense vibrations, possesses a mild chameleon like ability to blend into his surroundings, slightly above natural healing factor, but cannot speak due to his reptilian vocal chords. 
*Strength- Can lift and throw a car with very little effort
*Speed- Is deceptively fast for short bursts.
*Energy Projection- none.
*Defense- Virtually bulletproof barring AP rounds, resistant to blunt attacks, and has a mild resistance to flame and blades.

-Powers: Time- Can slow down time to a max of 3/4ths normal speed for about 8 seconds while maintaining his own normal reflexes for 10 yards, can slow down an object up to 100% for 5 seconds with a max range of about 385 yards, can't do both at once at a high capacity, and using his powers is physically draining like running.
*Strength- In top shap, humanly strong
*Speed- excellent cardio, time slow gives him superhuman speed
*Energy Projection-none
*Defense- Relies on his powers to avoid danger, but that hinges on his ability to be aware of trouble in the first place.
*Fighting Ability- An expert combatant, from any range.
*Intelligence- Brilliant tactician and strategist.

Cyreen Ninian- 28-  African American, scientific wunderkind, expert in chemistry and physics, emotionally distant, is obsessive and extremely focused on her career, photographic memory, recreational fencer and is the an upcoming expert on advanced technology.
-Powers- Cybernetics- Body is completely robotic, gives her super strength, durability, speed, and her body can store electricity and fire it from her fingers as a lightning gun, does not feel fatigue, can fly with anti-grav generators, but it takes a lot of power to run. Metal body means it is very hard to do any damage to her. Can absorb electricity through touch or proximity.
*Strength- Can bend steel and punch through un-reinforced materials
*Speed- Can run at up to 60 mph and fly at 90 mph.
*Energy Projection- Can wield electricity to devastating effect

Can manipulate and freeze liquids to form various objects or constructs, is easier to do the closer he is to the liquid and the size/freezability of the liquid. Can chill an opponent's blood through direct physical contact causing intense pain and discomfort.
*Strength- Average strenth
*Speed- frost dash gives him, potentially, superspeed.
*Energy Projection- low to high. Depending on liquid/moisture can have the most power fluctuations.
*Defense-Between his speed and ability to put up ice barriers is versatile defensively
*Fighting Ability- Brawler, is a vicious fighter, carries a 44 magnum as a precaution against thieves.
*Intelligence- Observant, knows people's behavior, has a working knowledge of first aid.

More to come on the set up soon!
