[FATE] Venture City: Hold Back the Night

[HotsuSama]

Yeah, I can't say it'll be easy to make the final picks.

[Touketsu]

I haven't firmed out skill picks or anything yet; I hope that's okay. If I get picked I was planning to ask for a little help finishing the last details of my build (and also making sure I'm not overlapping anyone else too much.)

[HotsuSama]

All good, I don't need skills or standard stunts yet.

Really, I just hope everyone's had fun building their character aspects and powers here!

[Sirviantis]

I'll definitely need similar help! But I'll wait to see if I've been selected. And yes Hotsu, I have had a lot of fun building my character!

[HotsuSama]

I'm calling it now, people. I will not be considering any new applications for the current teams.

If you already have an app here, please feel free to make adjustments over the next couple of days and chat with me if you like. I won't be making my decision immediately.

It sucks that I can't take everyone, but those who aren't placed in the upcoming teams will be on a reserves list and have the first opportunity to come in if either team needs additional players.

BACKGROUND AND PERSONAL DETAILS

Jacob Salvestri was a wageslave that worked to pay for his radiology studies inside a Medical subsidiary of Mitsuhama, both his need for money along his enthusiasm for science and the fact that he percieved the subsidary as the less evil of the corportate empire, made him accept to take part on clinical trials designed to develop new ways to unlock dormant abilities , which gave him his either casually or causally nuclear based powers, he was planning to work as a supe together with the energy subsidiaries when the revolution changed everything.

In the past he believed that he could help some organizations drastically reform and reinforce the positive within the system, but the crisis made him realize he has the chance of helpin build something new with what he considered positive from the old order, promoting responsible use of power (both economical and nuclear) and rational thinking, he focuses so much on his goals that he can fall in the same pitfalls he wants the new society to avoid

To protect his identity and lives of family members (Canadian - Argentinian background, mundane workclass) he uses a blond wig to hide his shaven dark hair, together with his goggles which also protect his eyes from bright lights, he uses black baggy cargo pants to carry items he might need

STUNTS
Wont accept a No: Determination of will often creates advantages due to constantly thinking strategies to fulfill his goals
Powered up body: +2 When resisting damage with physique

POWERS

Power Suite Description: He can generate nuclear energy inside his body which he canalizes into irradiating light swords that can penetrate and weaken tissue or even slice through different materials if enough intensity is applied

Drawback: The glow makes his presence and movements easy to spot, and after long exposure to it, can blind the eyes of people nearby, friend or foe alike (he uses protection googles for it) or even give them radiactive poisoning which is also why he wears the radioactive logo to warn civilians as part of his promotion of reponsible use of power

Special Effects: Area Attack, Inflict Condition,

Power Natural Weapon

Super agility: + 2 Agility when demostrating it such as leaps

Physical Stress: [] [] []
Mental Stress: [] [] [] [] [] []

Consequences:
(2, Mild) []
(4, Moderate) []
(6, Severe) []

All right i modified it in case i make i make it into the teams.. I Added the "cat's landing enhancement", which I chose instead of some super toughness synergy and the drawback of poisoning whoever has long exposure to the energy swords.. also the aspect of his promotion of "responsible power" could be double edged in the sense he also worries about how his actions are protrayed by the media and the message he ends up conveying, a little like Homelander from the Boys do, but not that cynical, a little more like Cyclops sees activism instead

final tweaks

[mystwatch]

[Sirviantis]

So, HotsuSama, it seems like you're having some trouble picking characters... Either that or you've sent out PMs and not let us know that you've picked your lucky few.

Anything we can do to help?

[HotsuSama]

Not gonna lie, it's been tough. Every app has something I like about it. But I'll be making an announcement here very soon, I think.

[HotsuSama]

Yeah, I think I'm ready to launch. I still haven't settled 100% on team allocation but I guess that doesn't need to be hard-coded right away.

The game folder is here for players, and for anyone wanting to read along.

The following heroes have been called to action! Feel free to check in when you're ready.

Sirviantis	Morgan Matthews / Ion
Tiger Basilisk	Werner Schmidt / Sharpseeker
Touketsu	Faraday
