Char Idea                          Mon Apr 12    Durandal
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Saul Bowman

Racetype: Human

Affiliation: Maverick Hunter

Function: Elite Janitor



Quote: I swear, you kids get this daggum floor so dirty on purpose.

For every great organization, there is a great support crew. For the Hunters, 
Saul is that support crew. One of the oldest and most senior employees of 
Light Labs, he holds the Lab's records for Employee of the Month, Year, and 
Decade awards won. A fairly quiet man, he goes about his job with little 
grumbling, except when people are carelessly dirtying the floors he 
laboriously works to clean. Despite his old age, the man simply refuses to 
retire or slow down, he's never called out sick and he doesn't plan on doing 
so every. After the destruction of the Labs, he was made a full fledged Hunter 
to honor his bravery and dedication to the cause and tasked with keeping 
Hunter Headquarters looking in tip top shape. It's a hard, dirty job, but 
somebody's gotta do it.

Primary Weapon: Zestfully Clean 

Type: Acid Water

Yet Another Maverick idea.         Tue Apr 13    Cargo Belome
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Drain Leech 
Racetype: Reploid 
Affiliation: Maverick 
Function: Energy Tank 

Quote: "Yummy! Your energy makes a nice meal! Uwee Hee Hee!" 

Profile: Originally built to get rid of clogs in pipes, Leech quickly grew 
tired of the job, to no one's surprise. During a job, he vanished in the 
underground, preying upon victims at night. The Coalition intrigued him, and 
so one night he signed himself up. Obssessive-Compulsive and very greedy, 
Leech likes stealing things, especially another's energy, preferring to turn 
the enemy into a dried out husk rather kill him normally. Fairly easy to get 
along with, although a bit creepy, he actually likes helping out another 
Coalition member by giving energy he stole. Very fond of eating things, and 
eats just about anything. His body can expand to enormous size for storage, 
and he uses many melee attacks than ranged. Although, he can get cocky and 
sometimes 'overeats', causing damage to his systems. His main weapon is simply 
grabbing onto the enemy, biting, and sucking out their life. 

Primary: Sucks to Be You 

Type: Blade Acid

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Looking for a history? Or need some ideas for design of backstory? Prismatic 
Spider can help YOU. Yes, YOU.

Reploid or Bioroid, Prismatic has the knowledge to give your OC a helping hand 
into the land of the IC! Just page or @mail me and we can talk. :D

Or perhaps you need an idea? In the following posts, here's a few sample 
fingers and profiles that you might be able to use!

Children of the Prism (1/2)        Sun Apr 18    Prismatic Spider
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weeping Willow
Race: Bioroid
Sex: Female
Function: Psychiatrist

Quote: "Wounds do not always show on the metal or flesh. Please, let me help 
you..." 

Profile: While Caduceus Catfish is dedicated to healing physical wounds, 
Weeping Willow is designed to heal psychological pain. Caring and soft-spoken, 
she gives her services freely to any who ask for it, and occasionally gives 
advice when a problem is obviously causing the subject issues. While normally 
quite peaceful, those who bring violence against her find her resilient and 
subtle, using her long, flowing branch-hair to disarm and subdue them... 
perhaps for an in-depth therapy session. 

Primary: Wind in the Willows
Type: WIND SONIC

Guardian Lion 
Race: Reploid
Sex: Male
Function: Variable Blitz Defense

Quote: "The enemy can strike anywhere, anytime. We have to be prepared for 
it."

Profile: Speed and resiliance are Guardian Lion's hallmarks. Designed for 
lightning fast dispatch into a variety of possible situations, he can be 
immediately prepared for defensive maneuvers in any terrain or setting from 
space to underground. What he lacks in firepower he makes up for with his 
sheer staying power, slowing enemies for him and his allies to turn the attack 
around with his Shield Boomerang. Always alert and ready for action, but 
relaxed when not in combat, Guardian nevertheless enjoys life and company 
despite his stressful job.

Primary: Guardian Aegis
Type: BARRIER ENERGY

Children of the Prism (2/2)        Sun Apr 18    Prismatic Spider
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trinary Kappa
Race: Reploid
Sex: Male
Function: Computer Engineering/Cracking

Quote: "Yes, No, Maybe so... Things come in threes, after all."

Profile: Trinary Kappa is a master of computer hardware and interface systems. 
If you need something to communicate with something else, Trinary can usually 
kitbash something together quickly enough for you. Of course, such knowledge 
also gives him ways to make such hardware do what he wants... Perpetually 
jovial, Trinary loves to talk and chatter away with whoever is around... Or 
with his two holoduplicates, one red and one blue (named Yes and No... They 
call him Maybe.) to his green. Somewhat independent, they tend to talk back as 
well on occasion. Their main purpose is to help Trinary with transport and 
setup, though they are also useful in a pinch to help him with the Trinary 
Strike. And yes, he does love cucumbers.

Primary: Trinary Strike
Type: BLUNT BLADE

Pattern Silkworm
Race: Reploid
Sex: Male
Function: Information Analysis

Quote: "There's a pattern to everything. Once you find it, you can control 
it."

Profile: Pattern Silkworm is a master of data analysis, able to detect overall 
trends and likelyhoods from even fragmented information. Intensely 
intellectual, he spends much of his time performing his function. Unlike most 
of the other creations of Prismatic Spider, Pattern Silkworm isn't very social 
unless making a presentation or analysis for someone. Quick and to the point, 
Pattern keeps to his job and does it well. 

Primary: Patternweave
Type: TIMESTOPPER

NeOC Arcadia!                      Mon Apr 19    Alpha
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Having trouble thinking up a Neo Arcadia OC? Well here's an idea!

Name: !Xabbu (yes the ! is part of it)
Quote: "And Grandfather Mantis said, 'When the time is right, gather all the 
people'."
Function: Desert Operations
Profile: One of the last surviving descendents of the Bushmen Tribes, !Xabbu 
may show a humble, childlike personality despite his clearly adult age, but he 
is just as much as hateful of artificial life as any Neo Arcadian...However, 
!Xabbuu may be one of the few who shuns technology altogether. The expanse of 
modern man has nearly wiped out his tribe and it has been barely hanging on 
since centuries. Capable of surviving in the desert alone easily, he didn't 
need Enhanced Genetics to work in that field, but he got them anyway. With 
enhanced agility, speed, and jumping abilities, !Xabbu suffers from having a 
weak skeletal structure, but heat is no problem for him. He fights with 
improvised weapons that he crafts himself. Above all else, he has a fondness 
for telling the stories of his tribe.
(no primary or anything :D) 

Feel free to change or mold this profile into an app that you want. There's no 
relation to my characters, really, and it's just to get your brains thinking. 
Didn't include a primary so you could make up your own.

NeoOC Idea                         Mon Apr 19    Raffinato Donnaiolo
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is an idea that has been floating around in my head for a while. I may or 
may not app him in the future, but your free to pick him up if you do so 
desire: 

Name: Randy Randyman 
Function: Berserker 
Quote: "'The meek shall inherit the earth'. That means I'd better get a bigger 
slice of the pie!" 

Profile: Randy 'Skipper' Randyman can be summed up with one word: plain. Born 
in a no-name town, in Nebraska, Randy has always been the emoidiment of a 
nobody. Somewhat of a nerd, he was teased lightly in school, but mostly he was 
ignored. However, he soon grew paranoid and anti-social, because of a bad 
trait: his father's temper. Gets frustrated at any little irritation, and is 
prone to exploding at things or people he dislikes or thinks of as stupid. 
Randy was physically weak, and hated anybody stronger than him, including 
robots. He became an accountant. But, as he is also self-pitying, he grew 
tired of his boring job and boring life, eating tuna sandwiches his mom packs 
as he heads off to count beans. He then heard of the Neo-Arcadian uprising, 
and found out about the E-Human project. Ecstatic, he signed up, and soon 
became a soldier based on strength, letting his other stats suffer. He became 
slightly power-hungry, and takes great glee in crushing his enemies. His 
temper was focused mostly to battle, where he uses a zanbatou with ease and 
twin machine-guns he named after his mother. Prone to violent rages, he rarely 
loses enough control to attack allies, but once in a while something slips. He 
also works as the Neo-Arcadian's accountant. 

Primary: RANDY ZANBATOU 
Type: BLADE

Arago and myself mentioned this before on O-Civ. Props to him for the idea. I 
just figured you all needed some love. So.

Name: Trojan Man
Faction: IO
Function: Protector
Quote: "Out for a -romp- around the bushes, eeeeeh?"
Profile: A mysterious android in love with his stealth systems, Trojan Man 
sneaks about in the dead of night, seeking young, hormonial teens to protect. 
Against what, one might ask? Why, just read the label, young man! Nothing is 
ever seen of him but his hand, nothing heard but his magnificient and 
resounding voice as he delievers his message of safety and stretchable 
dependence. Seems to have either acquired an invisible cult as well, or just 
to be very demented, as his teleportation systems always anounce his arrival 
with the chorus'd call: "Trojan MAAAAN!"

Primary: Safety First
Type: Blunt Barrier


Suck on the love.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From a conversation on channel.

Name: Numbskull Pachycephalosaurus
Function: Frontline Assault
Note: Formally a deconstruction worker in the public sector, Numbskull now 
functions as Frontline Assault. With the help of a hydraulic/pneumatic piston 
in his neck, his cranium packs quite a punch. He's little forgetful and 
somewhat slow, traits that are usually attributed to the numerous hits to his 
cranium.

NPC as Original Character          Sun Apr 25    General
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Greetings! You might wonder what the heck this post is about, but putting it 
simple-like, I got the notion from a handful of folks that they'd like to app 
the NPC Nurse from the Neo-Arcadia Riots (You know, the scene in which they 
were lambs to the slaughter, and was saved by the Hunter, Seismic Earthworm). 
What follows next is some basic, underlying funadmentals to who this person 
was before the Riots, as well as suggestions towards her development as an 
Original Character. 

Basic Stuff for Aimee, the Rescued Nurse Reploid from the Neo-Arcadia Riot

Now, first of all, I'd like to point the NPC was originally one of Metal Man's 
NPC types, but I added some of my own flavor to her.

Pre-Riot - I list pre-riot stats as something of a base template to her for 
whoever wants to do some number crunching. That, however, is not my style, 
eh-heh.

Size: 3 - Bodytype is a humaform for obvious technical reasons. Think Iris for 
the type of synthskin for her face, but without the beret and uberkilt. :)
Agility: 4-5 - The average for a Reploid
Charisma: 4 - She was a shy nurse, and for all it's worth, she had her share 
of crushes on Doctors, both the human and the reploid, purely based on 
personality. 
Courage: 5
Dexterity: 6 - She's a Nurse, not a doctor, and she was built with precision 
motor control to assist on tricky operations with the Doctor at a need. Not to 
mention grabbing and holding and other fun things Nurses might need to do
Endurance: 4 - She's a non-combat Reploid, after all.
Firepower: 1 - Who are you kidding to expect her with Firepower? :)
Intelligence: 6-7 - She's worked as a Nurse long enough to garner her own 
skills to do minor first aid and other jury-rigging solutions to humans and/or 
robots at the need, but not enough to become a full Doctor of Robotic or Human 
medicine. Yet.
Strength: 4 - Built with the Average strength, more to the ability to be able 
to move and lift gurneys or other heavy items on her own, should she need to. 
Velocity: 3 - Average. Hah.

Abilities: Drive - She drives a small hoversedan, used, from her wages earned. 
| First Aid, Jury Rig - She has been taught the basics as part of her nurse 
training and programming, and she has furthered her ability through experience 
at the hospital she worked at for approximately 4 years.

One of the main reasons that this nurse, Aimee, managed to survive the plasma 
shotgun, not to mention everything else, was some expenditures on redundant 
systems as failsafes against catastrophic system failures in case of 
emergency, like accidents, and the like. It quite possibly could've been her 
creator's paranoia, which, in the end, managed to save her life, or perhaps 
prolonged it too much.

Long and short of it, her basic personality archetype before the riots is 
really simple, but can be fleshed out in a multitude of ways. As Metal Man 
informed me, Aimee is the type who's your average, shy type. She does have 
something of an endearing personality, to the fact that she will not harm 
anyone. It isn't even her Neural Net coding, but she is the least likely 
individual to ever go Maverick, or downright hurt anyone. This, however, was 
before the riot, I'll remind you. She loved taking care of humans especially, 
at where she worked primarily dealt in the care and treatment of humans, but 
she also worked with robots and other mechanical lifeform, treating everyone 
with equal care and concern.

WHAT HAPPENED TO HER:
She was kidnapped while she was on a week's vacation by Skull Man, as other 
Masters kidnapped other people. She was knocked out most of the time by either 
shock shutting down her systems, including her redundant ones. Shock, by the 
fact her optics, and her audio sensors were ripped out, forcibly, given the 
minimal of cleaning, before a camera and microphone set were placed on her. 
Until she gets these replaced, she is effectively blind and deaf. The entire 
experience of being harried at by humans in a frenzy, and almost all but dead 
thanks to those events, has, for the past weeks, left her all but mute and 
refusing to talk to anyone, even the Hunters who saved her.

Neo Arcadian Concepts              Tue Apr 27    Shadow Man
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since Neo Arcadians are the in thing...

Name: Jeremy Williams
Profile: Part of Neo Arcadia's genetic enhancement research was the Divergence 
Project, an experiment to see how much the original genotype restricts the 
final enhancement. Jeremy was one of the two twin brothers selected for the 
project, given enhancements to boost his reflexes and endurance in combat. 
With an easygoing and extrovertive personality, Jeremy finds himself easily 
fitting in or making friends with others. Although he agrees totally with the 
Neo Arcadian ideals he's not a zealot about it. His main weakness lies in 
holding back or underestimating his own abilities.

Name: Theodore Williams
Profile: Part of Neo Arcadia's genetic enhancement research was the Divergence 
Project, an experiment to see how much the original genotype restricts the 
final enhancement. Theodore was one of the two twin brothers selected for the 
project, given enhancements to boost his coordination and attack power in 
combat. Theodore is a bit shy around strangers but forward and casual around 
allies. He usually follows his brother's lead when they're together. Theodore 
is strongly loyal to Neo Arcadia, and also seems to know more about their 
internal workings than he probably should. His main weakness lies in a a lack 
of tact and tendancy to overstep his bounds.

And no, they don't form a gestalt, and I reserve the right to brick people in 
response to suggestions to the contrary. =)

Rabid Nurse?                       Tue Apr 27    Umbra Phantom
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: Julie

Racetype: Human

Affiliation: Civilians (Neo Arcadia)

Function: Head Nurse

Quote: I'm going to shove my tools where it counts if you don't stand still.

Profile: "Nurse" Julie as the Neo Arcadians know her, began her career in a 
large hospital in America. She was very good at her job - but her violent 
tendacies and habits of disregarding orders quickly got her ejected from the 
position of head nurse. The fact that her former boss was a reploid aided in 
fueling her hatred of the machines, but mostly her anger comes from the sheer 
amount of injuries she had to deal with due to Maverick attacks. While Julie 
looks peaceful and caring on the outside, she was one of the first to enroll 
in the Neo Arcadian army, quickly rising to the position of head nurse at the 
military base due to her exceptional skills. Unfortunately it is not this, but 
her rather aggressive way of going about business that Julie is most known 
for. She keeps a large wooden club on hands at all time for dealing with 
'uncooperative' patients and has little qualms about giving even the Guardians 
a good whack if she thinks they deserve it.

Primary Weapon: Two By Four

Type: BLUNT

Credits go to: Sage Harpuia for introducing the concept of rabid nurses, Mary 
Summers for pretty much doing the profile, Gemma (who inspired me for the 
primary weapon) and then myself for.. well.. DARING to put this together.

This is all, of course a mere base for the character, so I don't expect anyone 
to apply for this character without placing a bit of his own opinions into it. 
As for her last name, I trust there are people out there with more imagination 
than myself, and lots of them, so I will leave that to you.

Good luck to whoever decides this fits as an OC!
