Heyo, my friends!
As if I didn’t already have too many rp’s on my plate, I’m making another.
I found some very good writing prompts for hero x villains, and I was inspired to start a story perhaps.
Links to the prompts are:

  We can pick and choose which ones, or combine a few, etc.

Rules:

• Be relatively active pls :3
• Rated whatever is fine (for language, actions, etc) / whatever you’re comfortable with
• 3+ sentences, pls
• GrAMmaR
• No controlling someone else’s character
• We can chill in pm’s if we need to

Temps will be put up once someone joins :D

Full Name: Solomon Moss
Nicknames/Aliases: Solo / Padlock / Pad(s) / Paddy
Age: 24
Gender: Male h/h
Occupation: A villain against the government; someone who is convinced the needs of the few are more important than the needs of the many.

Personality: Solomon is very strategic and tactical, his mind working in mysterious ways to accomplish a task. He sees people more as puzzles that can be solved, and he's a major perfectionist. He doesn’t really care about other people other than himself, but that’s bound to change. Solo is very sarcastic and often comes off as tired or moody. He doesn’t get flustered easily but he’s quick to anger, and will fight someone on any turn he disagrees with. His emotions are a wild roller coaster, and he’s quite impulsive. If he wants something, he’s bound to get it, one way or another.
Mannerisms: Narrows his eyes if he’s confused / whistles to himself absently, often times not realizing it / purses his lips if he’s confused
Hobbies: Puzzles and puzzle boxes / escape rooms / y’know… taking over the government…

Physical Appearance: Looks relatively like this or this. Skin paler and sicker than most, yet still holding slight color. Sunken blue eyes that hold knowledge beyond his years. His hair is a straight dark black that often falls in his face, contrasting with his skin. He seems to always look tired, but he still carries himself high and proud like a leader. His build is quite toned, though, but could still be considered lithe. His body is littered with scars that he refuses to tell the stories of, and he keeps them hidden often. Stands at roughly 6’0”.
Normal Attire / Gear: Standard t-shirts and slacks, perhaps on the more casual side than not. He often wears a black pull-over jacket with his usual attire, but if he is trying to hide his identity, he often wears a stark white motorcycle helmet with a tinted visor.

Backstory: tbd…? What I do know is that he was raised in a very iffy household, which did nothing in helping him in some major, magnified version of OCD. He wants to rewrite his government as he sees fit, finding the only way he could do that is by force. He faked his own death roughly six years ago, now strictly going by the name Padlock.
Family: A mother, father, and older brother. All of which he does not keep in contact with any more. For all the public knows, as well as his family, Solomon has been dead for about six years now.
Other: He doesn’t have “powers,” just a magnified way of thinking. He’s an absolute genius, thinking in ways most people wouldn’t. It’s only because he uses that logic for reasons other than good does he get a bad reputation.

Full Name: Valentine Daye
Nicknames/Aliases: Val, Phantom (it feels a little cheesy to call it his hero name but that's what it is)
Age: 27
Gender: Male (he/him)
Occupation: Part time superhero, full time model

Personality: Val is a sweetheart through and through, though he's always had his head in the clouds. Spacey and a bit self absorbed, he can be quite the challenge to work with if you don't know how to capture his attention, and it's rare that he fixates on anything for long. Floaty and flaky, one could easily get the impression that he's drifting through life propelled only by his good looks and bubbly attitude. He's always been a bit too flirty for his own good and even though he never means any harm by it, he has a bad habit of letting people get overly attached before he flits away to the next person who catches his eye. Honestly, the only thing that can keep him focused for any amount of time is a challenge, but given the circles he runs in he doesn't get many of those these days.
Mannerisms: Constantly fiddling with something, be it glasses, piercings, or hair. His gaze tends to drift if you talk to him for more than a few minutes.
Hobbies: Makeup, heroism (?), writing (usually poetry, but sometimes short stories)

Physical Appearance: Kind of like this or this. Val is tall and willowy, with an almost birdlike quality about him. His eyes are usually a bit glazed and there's something hazy about him, like his edges are slightly smudged. He's relatively slim, relatively tall, most people find it to pinpoint specifics about him beyond his eyes and the dark wave of his hair. Speaking of, he usually keeps it tossed up in a braid or messy bun because long hair is a pain to manage if you just leave it down all the time.
Normal Attire / Gear: He's always dressed in something expensive but nondescript. A chunky knit sweater that could've been made by a talented grandmother or bought from Gucci. Shoes that might be converse but have a design just different enough to actually be thousand dollar mock ups. He shies away from bright colors outside of shoots, and it's rare that you'll see him in anything that isn't a neutral tone

Backstory: Grew up in a middle class family without much trouble. He got scouted out of high school and barely had time to graduate before he started taking on full time projects. His father was an EMT, which sparked a desire to help people that hasn't quite managed to fade even into adulthood.
Family: Father, mother, two older sister, all of whom he's fairly close to and makes an effort to keep in touch with. These efforts don't last very long, but he tries.
Other: He has powers, and I'm trying to keep them decently balanced but if you want me to nerf him a little, please let me know. If he focuses he can make himself 'fade' becoming incorporeal and difficult to detect. In this form, he resembles a group of faint heat shimmers in the vague shape of a humanoid, something most people don't notice or dismiss as a trick of the light. He cannot touch people or be touched until he either stops using his powers or looses his concentration.
