((Let me try to answer those questions on my perspective))
((1. Yes
2. Soon maybe. Clyde already said that Netal and Ivy were captured
3. Nope
4. Probably underground somewhere, near the old base. Let's just say the blast had just barely grazed it, and you can see part of the base sticking out.
5. No
6. Silvira just left, Aaron and Clyde, Yulvtar (I think), Liam and Jake, Caleb's character and um... I think that's it?
7. Rest I don't know
8. ?
9. ? ))

((New character alert!))
Name: Sarah Rei
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Powers: Her body adapts to her current environment. So, say she's underwater. Her lung capacity will slowly expand, allowing her to breath underwater for about as long as a dophin. Her muscular strength would also increase, allowing her to swim easier, and she would become a general 'mermaid' of sorts. Sometimes, her body changes in less predictable ways.
Weaknesses: She can't control her power, meaning it is quite easy to bypass, for example, luring her into a hot area, and then freezing her would probably be incredibly effective. Also, it takes time for her to adapt to her current environment. Quick & constant changes in environment can keep her trapped in a mostly normal form.
Appearance:
Personality: Calm, cool, likable an friendly. Probably a bit over-protective. She generally cheers people up just by being near them, although when she gives you the cold shoulder, it can be the most heart-breaking thing in the world. She's also incredibly smart and quick-thinking.
History: Born somewhere in Australia, Sarah's parents were murdered when she was but three months old by the ETG, who then took her back to America. They planned to use her as their guinea pig/ warrior. For her first few years of life, she played along, not knowing anything other than the ETG life. But then she realized something was amiss. She used the trust of the ETG to find out their real motives. She continued to play along, until, quite recently, the facility she was in, hidden away on Derika island, was attacked. She used the confusion to escape and find the Gifted. She has JUST arrived at the gates of Brinkhaven.
Current Location: Brinkhaven gates.

((Ryik, i was thinking until now that Aaron was on my apt, i suggested THA PIZZA PARTY, AFTER ALL! AND PRESSED THE BUTTON TO LEAD ME AT THE NUMBER OF MY APARTMENT D:))
((6. Silvira just left, Aaron and Clyde, Yulvtar (I think), Liam and Jake, Caleb's character and um... I think that's it?))
((Corrections: Silvira is about to leave, I'm waiting until someone else at the pizza party posts to see if they want to stop her from taking off. Yulvtar is at his own pizza party with some other people, and Caleb's character is named Deemas :P))

Name: Kathryn Kimples Age: 18 Gender: Female Power(s): Can basically use words to alter objects. ((She can say 'The door melted in a single fluid movement.' Which, depending on the strength of the door, could cause it to literally melt. Or it could do nothing.)) Weaknesses and Limits: The more powerful an object (Rarer the material in it/sentience), the harder it is for her to affect it. The only way around this is to use more words to describe what she wants to do. Once she uses an adjective, it cannot be used to affect anything until 12:00 AM. Using her ability will mentally fatigue her, making her descriptions less thorough the further and further in she gets with the description. Cannot create anything, she can only alter existing objects/people. CANNOT completely and randomly destroy an object. Plus, the more unusual the action that the object does/turns to/whatever, the more description it takes her.
Appearance: About five feet and nine inches tall with dark blonde hair and a slightly rounded face. Blue eyes and white skin. Arms are average length and end in normal looking, smooth skinned hands. Is almost always wearing dark blue shorts and a dark grey striped white t-shirt.
Personality: ----
History: She was born on the streets of Brinkhaven, trying to survive. No one took her in, no one loved her. Then, one day, she met this burly young man. He randomly hit her on her head and told her all about her ability. She used it to rob from stores and the like. This ended up with her being put in jail with a scarf/thing around her mouth so that she couldn't talk. She was held there for about a month before a caring couple (old people ((FTW)) ) decided to bail her out and adopt her. Since then, she has basically reformed. She has just turned eighteen, in the unaligned ((I think that's where she goes. She could go in physical too, right????)) base which she has recently joined. So far, she has not done any missions.
Fill this out: (Mage_Of_Cats-Kathryn-18-Female-Words to alter objects IRL)
((I have a feeling this may be another hard to work with power. If youre sure about this, then its accepted. (Please take Kathryn more seriously then you did Jack, you cant just have characters dying all the time. Unless you are Ryik.
((I have so many questions as to what is happening.
1: Did the base explode? yes
2: When are Deemas and the others leaving?
3: Is there any more pizza? not til someone gets some more
4: Where is the location of this new ETG base?
5: Is there any more pizza? slade is eating the last of it, the fatty (jk, Slade is very healthy)
6: Who all is at the rooftop pizza party? Clyde, Liam, Silvira, Jake, Slade, Deemas, David(hopefully Max and Jenny soon)
7: Is Jenny okay? yes
8: Are Max and Jenny dating? *Of course not*
9: Is there any more pizza?)) i wish
Name: Nya/Naia ((Pronounced Naia) In truth her name is Naia, but she will write, spell, and sometimes pronounce her own name as Nya. (NYAH) She does this on purpose specifically eliciting cat puns and such because the whole thing is one big cake made of irony)
Appearance: Her general appearance varies, but when she decides to show as human, she usually looks something like this ((Yeah, I know, MSPaint.))
She doesn't like people seeing her true appearance, but if you insist, this is what she really looks like:
Ok fine. She actually looks like this:
There. You saw her freakish mutant scythe/devil tail wings. Are you happy? She's very sensitive about those and you just opened up all those emotional scars, twisted the knife, then poured salty lemon juice into it. Are you satisfied? Hmm? HMM!? She'd probably be crying right now if she saw this blatant display of her image online.
What? Yes she's human! Or at least that's what she will vehemently claim to be. Oh who are you to start questioning her? You just stabbed her!
Ability: She can disguise anything and everything, though her concentration divides for every observer. Her ability works in that she targets an item, she selects something about that item, then makes it unidentifiable. The more traits she covers, the harder it becomes to maintain the disguise. The item remains disguised permanently, though she has a mental bank of sorts where she can remove her ability effect from any item herself. The item does not actually change, and so when no attention is put on it, it uses none of her concentration. When much attention is put on it, it is more likely to be seen through, and if it seen through entirely, the entire mirage disappears.
When she disguises something, say, the roundness of a ball, your mind will work to rationalize it as a similar but different object; like a cube. When you kick the cube, the rolling will alert you to the unnatural properties of the ball/cube, and if you stop believing it is a cube altogether, it will revert to a ball.
When multiple people are observing the cube, the finer details must be shown to their perception, causing it to take up more concentration. When people get close or closely scrutinize the cube, it takes up more concentration. If she slacks or breaks concentration, the finer details may be left out, and it is more easily identified as not a cube, or that something is wrong. Her distance from the object is irrelevant, and the same object can be interpreted by different people as different things. If she does nothing but disguise a ball's roundness, they might see a pyramid or something. She can however be more specific and change it into a cube herself by more complex denominations of definitions, but that's mere nuance.
Personality/Other: She is an alien has a deformity on her back which she hides to avoid being socially shunned. She has an affinity for anime, manga, video games, snakes, danmaku, and thigh-high socks. ("Thigh-High socks are her absolute territory") She has an inexplicable ability to make all otaku fall head-over-heels for her. (Or at the very least she thinks she can do this and has yet to be proven wrong) She has a deep appreciation for the art of irony, and the irony of irony, the irony of the unironic that is ironic because of the irony, and so on and so forth through countless tiers of irony wrapped in an ironic sandwich which is ironically glazed with cinnamon, then ironically hurled up into dizzying heights of the upper echelons of irony on mount irony, the tallest ironic mountain in all of ZILLYHOO, so named because of the irony. A poor nation, Zillyhoo ironically struggles economically because of the ironic inability of the rest of the world to appreciate its ironic snake hats, which happens to be its primary agricultural export, chosen for ironic purposes of course. However, this ironic nation is not an earthen nation of course, no, it is a nation of an ironic metaphor wrapped in an ironic explanation sandwich, ironically glazed with cinammon, then ironically hurled up into dizzying heights of the upper echelons of ironic self-repeating metaphors and ok this has to stop now.
She has so many pet snakes that she states that the world is her terrarium, and is never seen without at least one snake on her person.
Her weapon of choice is a Bow. No, that's not a trident, it's a bow. She likes firing a barrage of arrows disguised as snakes, SCPs, frogs, danmaku, horrorterrors, or other hilarious things. Since they whizz by, it's hard to notice they are actually arrows and even harder to dodge them since the illusion can disjoin with the actual arrow. She prefers bows and arrows because bullets are too fast to be visible and arrows dish out more physical damage in the long run, plus her ability gives her plenty of time to actually fire them.
She has a giant pet winged snake, (as far as you know, it's a winged snake) that flies her around the place, but since she thinks that it creeps people out, she often disguises it as a UFO and rides around on top of it.
Seeing her in her belle outfit with a parasol and everything wearing her Kamina/Dirk/Bro glasses while standing on top of a fast moving UFO tends to make people think she's weird. That is absolutely correct, though she only makes herself look like that because "the look on your face is priceless."
She lives in a UFO floating above Brinkhaven in a large, fancy, multi-room tree-house outside of Brinkhaven that totally isn't fake and is where she actually spends her alone time at Ehahahaha~ *forced laughter*.
She is in the mental faction.
((I.... I dont even.... I give up. The cap is now 30 characters per person. ))
((you should probably cut out the explosion bit, the exploded base was a good few miles away, and it wasn't that big of a blast, if i read everything correctly.))
((It was still a large explosion, just not nuclear. It was still well worth waiting to watch. Who doesn't love a good explosion? (no one)))

Slade disperses into smoke, reappearing behind Jake, his eighth piece of Pizza in hand. "I haven't eaten in quite some time. Excuse me for being hungry." He begins chewing on the pizza.
<Jake>
"That's it, you're buying us more pizza." I remark angrily. I teleport Slade, pizza and all, over the side of the building. As he falls, I call out to him "Come back with more pizza!!" Heh, serves him right. Now, where'd that water guy go?? The one that ruined the rest of the pizza.
she hisses at clyde, the sound scraping across ALL LISTENER'S EARS like fingernails on a chalkboard. "idiot." her eyes are narrow, and she arches her neck, lifting her head and staring at Clyde. she shakes herself with irritation, shaking the ice off her scales. she whips her head from side to side, looking over the people there. "that's it." her voice is annoyed, and itches at ALL LISTENER'S EARS.
"i'm leaving." she spreads her wings, stepping up to the edge of the skyscraper's roof.
<Liam> Gawdd her voice was so fking scratchy and annoying... "Shut up, kitty cat!" I fling my half empty cup of ice tea at her. I don't know why, but everything and everyone seems to be getting on my nerves....

The raided base has exploded, nearly costing Max and Jenny their lives. Netal and Ivy were captured by Krodin (not that anyone but Jake knows his name yet) and taken to an ETG base on the other side of Derika. The exact location of the base is unknown. (which makes sense) Clyde is trying to get people to look for Netal but most people are irritated and are ignoring him.))
~Dark, sleek airship rises from the raided base and flies away moments before:~ (Netal and Ivy onboard)
~Base explodes, sending up a flash of fire and pretty colors, followed by a loud rumble~
((Someone RP that they saw Netal and Ivy get captured))
((Thank you for working on the wiki. And yes, it does make me feel better))
<Vance>
~before I had left the base~
I turn the corner to see a skinny white kid get grabbed and subdued by a huge armored man. I keep watching, but I'm too late to warn the green-haired girl that gets captured right after. Oh crap did he hear me? I think as the armored man turns in my direction. I don't stop to find out and run away.
Waking from my nap, I remember what I had forgot to mention to Liam and quickly drafted a message to him.
Using my Waffle-Co. issued L-Watch I "acquired" I messaged
[Vance] -> [Liam] | 2 Gifted got captured by some big armored guy at mission. What do? Just woke from nap in park.
<Liam>
I get a test on my L-Watch, it turns out to be Vance. What could he be texting me about so late at night? He's not one for parties. Aghastat the message, I respond
[Liam] -> [Vance] | What?!! Why didn't you tell me sooner?
He takes a nap before remembering to tell me 2 people got kidnapped? I don't even...
"Hey Clyde, a friend just told me that 2 Gifted got captured at the base, it's probably Netal and someone else. I guess you weren't just imagining things..."
"Well that's very unhelpful." Max said to himself.
"Max." Jenny said. "When we left the base, I thought I saw a couple of our own get captured by an ETG soldier."
Max looked up from his watch.
"Wait really?" He said.
"Yes." Jenny remarked.
"What did they look like?" Max said.
"One of them, a girl, had greenish hair and a nurse's uniform." Jenny said. "I don't quite remember what the other looked like."
"They've got Ivy then." Max said nervously. "Okay. We're going to have to hurry up and find the rooftop of wherever the heck this pizza party is, get you a slice before you pass out, and then warn everyone else."
Max looked up to see lights on the top-most area of a tall building right across the street. gotcha. We will be there, momentarily. Max replied.
"They're on the roof of that tall building right there." Max said to Jenny. "Now then. Let's go get some Pizza."
The two of them immediately started climbing up the stairs to the top.
When they reached the top, Max gulped a bit. For some reason, he felt an air of tension: as if the whole place was ready to erupt a fight.
He looked at Jenny, who must've also sensed the tense air: seeing the anxiety in her eyes.
"Liam!" Max said upon seeing his friend. "How are things? And can we get some Pizza?"
((That is a LOT of broken bbcode.....)) ~~~~~~~shape=singing dragon~~~~~~~
She hisses again, the sound itching at the listener's ears, as she leaps in the air to avoid the flying Ice tea. "Shouldn't have picked a fight with me!" She screeches, the sound causing pain to the listener's ears, wheeling around the rooftop. She dives toward Jake, her small, needle-sharp claws aimed at his face. what do these people have against me??
“Oh that’s interesting, sonic weaponry.” He says, wincing and taking notes. “Definitely among the rarer subsets.”he mumbles to him self. “Say you wouldn’t happen to be causing the irritability are you?”
