[Lemon Boy]

Oh my god, I somehow made his Biography longer.


Anyway, that bit got a major overhaul and I elaborated much more on his character and who he both was and now is.


Worded it hella better as well in my own opinion. Apart from the biography, everything else is the same; just corrected spellings or altered wording. He's still the cutie floof ball he is today!


Did add some potential spookz stuff to the latter half of his profile that dealt with his more...questionable endeavours in life.


Here's hoping @Meredith's character doesn't end up opening that can of worms. < _ <


Would love some genuine critique by y'all!


@Gus Especially you, My Sir!


@welian Not even sure If you can critique without giving away whether they're accepted or not, but a small opinion on him would be wonderful from you!

  Notes
  
  Urial's current form is that of a majestic, healthy golden retriever with the most luscious and fluffy fur any man could ever lay eyes on. He is rarely found without his K.A.P strapped to his back.
  
  
• Sanguine
  
  
  Urial is known for his outpouring of general positivity to everything around him which can quickly infect others. He is constantly in a state of cheerfulness and optimism; It's an impossible task to find him outside of any mood that isn't one of cheerful, with his mind always floating on Cloud Nine. He'll always find the good of a situation or quickly alleviate the spirits of others with his mere presence as a result of this contagious upbeat trait of his. That and being an adorable, majestic golden retriever certainly helps in this.
  
  
  Spirited
  
  
  With his tendency to quickly adopt traits of the animals he possesses, Urial is an absolute powerhouse of energy that never depletes. He's hyperactive no matter how tired he is, the situation or even if it's in the middle of the night; anytime you encounter him expect him to be a bundle of energy jumping and running about. This constant energy also adds an air of humour to him, which creates a beauteous union with his optimism that makes it seem impossible for someone to be consistently saddened in his presence.
  
  
  Insightful
  
  
  Despite always having such a bright demeanour and positive outlook on life, many people have a tendency to overlook that living such a long life is as much a gift as it is a curse. He's watched his family die around him, every friend he makes he does with the knowledge that he will most certainly outlive them and their entire family by a very wide margin. This has allowed him to understand many aspects of life and has allowed him to emphasise with others in their times of need; you'll never find him lost for words or wondering what to do when the world turns cold & dark.
  
  
  Immature
  
  
  For someone who's possibly one of the oldest to be alive in human history, he's amazingly immature. A childish mindset mixed with his intelligence and optimism can make him quickly come off as slightly unprofessional in the normal setting and make him stand in stark contrast to the more business & professionalism orientated folk. Though, this does make him a bundle of fun to be around and a lot more easy to interact with when It comes to children. One wouldn't even think of associating him with things such as Intimidating or menacing.
  
  
  History
  
  
  Urial Ursler was born to a highly influential and esteemed family who were held in equal regard to Nobility in other Countries because of their various professions. Bartholomeus Ursler, his father, was a part of the Bewindhebbers, one of the seventy-six directors of the entire company and played a big part in the countries Economic and Business affairs within Asia. Rikila, his mother, did not hold such a formal status, but she was practically held in just as high regard, if not higher. She was a blossoming Intellectual within the free thinking City of Amsterdam who had a love for the Arts in both It's drawn and written forms. Known throughout the Country for her artistic pieces, she rarely let her birth as a woman strap her down and she quickly became known through the entirety of Europe as a fierce character with a sharp tongue that could cut just as easily as any blade a smith made. He was to live up to very high expectations which were drawn up even further as a result of his elder sister's great success in poetry.
  
  
  It was during the blistering Summer that Rikila had her second child, a boy. The sun shone brightly that day and she knew what to name him; Urial. It was a wonderful name and whilst they weren't overly religious, they most definitely thought that giving him such a name would set him up for great things in life. So ,as seasons passed he was enrolled in the most prestigious school's imaginable and when he was not studying in the classroom, he was studying at home. The pressure was immense and yet, from it, he had found his love for the Sciences and the natural beauty of the human body. All of its intricacies and mysteries. It was there, that he knew what he wanted to do in life.
  
  
  Studying Biology alongside Chemistry & Physics at the best University possible, It was during this stressful venture that his powers awoke, though their full extent would not reveal themselves just yet. He spoke to his Mother who was working on one of her paintings in her study room whilst in his own without even opening his mouth. The mere thought of wanting to ask her something was more than enough for his thoughts to quite literally escape him. It was of great shock that he held such abilities, yet his Mother, though surprised, was overall quite indifferent if not only slightly concerned. He had not burned down the house, broke the dams that kept their country safe from invasive waters or bring the dull-witted into his sway. All he did, was speak to her mentally. So they kept it under wraps, this entire thing and spoke nothing of it. That was the end of it. Time went on and the incident was forgotten, his life going on as normal.
  
  
  With the family garnering even more and more success, Urial came out of his class the top in his grades and a keen knowledge of the human anatomy and of medicine in which he wished to put to the test. He, quite naturally, gained a position in an incredibly respectable Hospitable that worked with the upper echelons of society to help keep sickness at bay and mend wounds. He treated quite a few significant people during his time there and contributed to some advances in Medicine and understanding of the human anatomy whilst stationed there.
  
  
  Of course, time went on, and as time gnawed at his form as It does to all things, he would eventually succumb at the fairly old age of Seventy-two. Or, well, that's what he thought would happen. You see, he was not only a great lover of the Sciences but of animals, none more so than the Hearty Dog or Graceful cat. So as he lay there, alone as he had outlived the majority of his family and his lover, his last breath escaped him.......and was sucked right back into the maw of his Grey cat. It was of little effort on his part of but a simple look at his cat that his consciousness was pulled into Its body. There he was, spry and full of energy....with a great hunger for fish. Without a hint of hesitation or shock at the situation, he skipped right out the window and into the Fish market to see what he could nom on.
  
  
  As If a primal instinct consumed him, he lived like this for God knows how long. Living as a street cat, wandering bird or merely playing the part of a family pet for someone who would pick him up off the street and act kindly to him; not knowing what he truly was. This bestial mind, faded with time as he began to notice that people began to speak of his kind more openly and with far less taboo, but still with hesitation, fear and hatred. People began to realise that his kind were far more than simply monsters...but weapons and devices that could be utilised to their advantage. So, he began to make his presence known and upon the dawn of WWII, he fought against the Nazi and Japanese Empires that rose up from hatred and ignorance. Each time death tried to claim him, be it through Sniper, bombing or tank shell he escaped it just in the nick of time by moving his mind to a passing bird, another dog or even a wandering cat. The Americans quickly came to know that even though he couldn't upheave entire battlefields or slaughter mindlessly on their whim, he was most certainly an asset for his quasi-Immortality. When the war ended and the cold war began, he was of great benefit; though not experienced, he was most certainly trained by the Americans to be something he was not, to harvest and sow malicious seeds of rumours or misinformation to misguide and influence the enemy. Urial performed and did various Op- ACCESS DENIED ON ORDER AND AUTHORITY OF THE U.S GOVERNMENT AND CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY.
  
  
  As the 21st Millenium dawned on the World, Urial now being an official Citizen of the United States and of the Netherlands, decided a change of scenery was in order and made to establish his new home in America working for an Agency known as the Commonwealth. That was, of course, until allegations and rumours were brought to light by a Terrorist organisation whom unraveled quite a few of the terrible things being done by the Agency he worked for. So he, quite naturally, resigned. He didn't want to exactly live the life he once did and he knew the consequences that came in playing God.
  
  
  The event that would soon come to be known as Rapture passed and he distanced himself from the World for a while as he contemplated both the things that were done in the name of Science by the Commonwealth and himself in the not so distant past. Regaining his composure and grip on reality, however, he decided he wanted to make a positive contribution to Society and has recently decided to fulfill the vacant role as First Aid Instructor for an AEGIS facility in Baltimore.
  
  
  He was accepted immediately, he knew more about the Human body, Medicine and Biology than even the Intellectually inclined supers of their time. The perfect candidate to shape future generations.

• Telepathy
  
  
  Urial is in possession of an overly simplistic form of telepathy. He may establish a "mental link" with a person / people which allows both him and the linked person to communicate mentally. Another useful application of this is that he may mentally project his thoughts around him as if speaking normal; an incredibly useful application of his ability given his current form as a dog.
  
  
  • Telepathic Transferal: The reason for Urial's extreme life-span is his ability to seemingly transfer his entire consciousness and all of its memories into another body; as long as it is not human.
    
  • Kinetic Arm Prosthesis: A Military grace piece of technology made by himself that has been made to seemingly adopt a more "Civilian" grade role. It takes the form of a backpack which contains within it eight golden cybernetic limbs which aid him in various tasks. They are incredibly durable and strong, capable of easily lifting a person and performing heavy duty work. It's true ability, however, is the capability to project golden forcefields around either himself or other people which may protect them from harm. It was originally made for both himself and other Medic's performing their duty in militarized zones so that they may treat the injured without having to risk being harmed. This function has also resulted in the arms storing various medical equipment inside the backpack and arms themselves that allows him to perform medical aid whilst inhabiting the body of a dog.
    
  
  
  Limitations
  
  
  • Range: Urial is limited to a radius of one hundred and fifty metre's around himself before his telepathy is unusable.
    
  • Limit: Urial is limited at fifteen people on allowing himself and others to communicate between each other mentally. Attempts at even more people can bring about Headaches, Migraines and If under incredible stress and making use of it on far too many people, Brain damage.
    
  • Viable Subject: Urial is quite limited in his options of transferal. He may only inhabit sentient, biological beings that are not humans. Whilst trading his consciousness, the animal's consciousness is virtually snuffed out and the original body will experience total organ failure within seconds of him moving from another body.
    
  • Line of Sight: Even with his powers, with the life he's led It's quite amazing how he's lived this long. If he dies, he dies but for him, before he went into the light he went into another body and has had so far, an outrageous string of luck. If those stray animals were never there he may have never lived this long.
    
  • Telepaths: Telepaths with more advanced capabilities compared to his own can quite easily access his mind and even manipulate it if they have the power to do so.
    
  • Adoption: Urial's ability to transfer his consciousness often results in him collecting traits of the being he possesses. As a dog, he is very easily excitable and can get a bit out of hand if you pet him too much. Dog treats and the like are also something along the lines of drugs for him.

Frankly I'm picturing him and Morgan accidentally manipulating each other.


The age is a liiiiiitle iffy, although that's mostly me being uncomfortable with extremely old characters as a GM. This doesn't actually violate any known laws of the Aegis universe.


Though... His powers call into question the nature of a soul, if such a poetic and metaphysical entity as a soul, an immortal soul, even exists. If it does, then... Maybe Raguel is on to something with the angel schtick.

 

[Lemon Boy]

I'll assume It doesn't help the fanatic's that he's named after an Angel. < _ <

BATTLE OF THE TECHNICALLY BUT NOT REALLY IMMORTALS.


RASPUTIN V FLOOFY THE FLOOF DOG.


FIGHT.


tbh i imagine Rasputin living as a hippy hipster living in a really nice wooden treehouse and being like, the most chill guy ever.


maybe that's just me.

 

[welian]

Atlantis is where immortals go to die.

 

[Lemon Boy]

*MEANWHILE AT A SLEEPOVER IN ATLANTIS*


St Germain: Ey, ey...Rasputin, you dead yet?"


Rasputin: Well i'm trying, but if you don't shut up i won't.


Nicolas: guys plz.


Perenelle: this is why no one in history talks about you nicely.

 

[welian]

That'll be an official spin-off roleplay set in the same universe - the player characters will be a group of immortal supers, just trying to live their lives peacefully while constantly being hunted down and vivisected for the secret to eternal youth.


Yup. Canon.

 

[welian]

Indigo, you might also like this character concept I created last night: A young brilliant engineer with a power suit, a total Iron Man expy... except the engineer is an unabashed furry. The power suit doubles as his fursuit. He wears it to conventions, and makes public appearances in-character. He only took up fighting crime because the FBI threatened to confiscate his shit if he didn't start helping out.

 

[Lemon Boy]

This is why we can't have nice things, even in Rp's.


THIS IS WHY THE KNIGHTS OF RAGUEL EXIST.


Stg, I can tell you've made some MLP vigilante as well or something.

 

[welian]

Well, I also like the idea of a super literally codenamed Princess Monster Truck. Either her powers came in MEGA early and that's the name she chose for herself at a ripe six years old, or her powers came in later in life and she let her young children choose a codename for her.


Princess Monster Truck does not have powers that relate to princesses, or monsters, or trucks, but she will goddamn fuck you up if you make her late for her PTA meeting.

 

[Lemon Boy]

@welian


Somewhat relates to trucks but Tire protrusion.


Oh, not deadly?


Yeah, try saying that when she grinds them 120mph In your face.

The best part about playing Junkrat is getting his ultimate and having it wasted as a Hanzo or Widowmaker immediately snipe it and then you to instant death.

Night all! Hope your weekends have gone beautifully!

 

[Necessity4Fun]

Night all! Hope your weekends have gone beautifully!

Beautifully boring for the most part~ xD


Welp, there's always tomorrow, right? OWO

 

[Gus]

When they arrive, it's to the scene of Aaron ushering nurses into action...

We have nurses? Plural? I'd gotten so used to everything at 108 connoting shabbiness and shoe string budgets I almost rated your post 'shock' :-)


Glad to have company at the clinic! Only five more posts until goal. Hoping to get a post up for Aaron by tomorrow night, Thursday at the latest. Would like to see the posting goal shattered by this weekend. Ic2 is kickin our collective ass. Unacceptable!


Let's show 'em what we are capable of, guys!


108! 108! 108! 108! 108! 108! 108! 108! 108!

 

[Dusky]

Nurse, nurses, same thing. xD Maybe I should have written "Staff." Shabby funding is one thing, but where untrained supers are involved I'd figured there would be a slightly beefed up infirmary by necessity.

 

[Captain Hesperus]

"Nurse, pass me the rib-spreaders please."


"Sorry, they're not sterile since that incident this morning."


"And the bonesaw?"


"Just coming out of the autoclave now."


"Can I at least get the powersaw?"


"Yes, sir."

[Necessity4Fun]

Guys, guys


No one drops the RP anymore, page 2 of the CS's start with a decreasing succession of K named characters:


Kyle, Kennith, Kendrick.


OMFG it's so beautiful! OWO


-Nessy's random switch has been turned on- >.<

 

[Lemon Boy]

Here to say that a Kyle post should be made later today!


Maybe write out one of the Prompts for Urial if I have enough time and nothing to do.

 

[TerraBooma]

Heya guys! Sorry I've been outta the OOC for so long ._.

 

[Necessity4Fun]

@too much idea So, uhhh, according to Gus , the sprinklers work by floor so only the second floor sprinklers would have triggered since there's where it detected smoke...


But, Uhh it also seems these things are very very fickle and lots of stuff can trigger them (I remember something about a gas and that you can trigger the sprinklers just by hitting them) so, I'm not really sure if the sprinklers triggering just inside the office are or not possible... There's so much going on inside there...


I'm in no way saying this just to annoy it's just, we discussed this on a Discord Voice chat before my post, and now I'm confused again xD


(You don't need to change anything!) >.<


Uhh, @Gus , grab your fancy physics and come help us, please?

 

[Necessity4Fun]

I pictured the sprinklers as only going off upstairs. Sprinklers here in 2016 earth prime have physical triggers based on heat and pressure changes, so a small localized flame won't set off the whole building, just the system of pipes locally, not the whole system.
But this is 2040 Earth-A, so who knows?

According to this I guess this is not such a big issue...


Let's pretend it's broken or something! xD


Ignore me and my confusion, hahaha!

 

[Gus]

More than you ever wanted to know: How Fire Sprinkler Systems Work


According to this article the only sprinkler head that is supposed to activate is the one experiencing high heat directly, so perhaps I was wrong also.


My understanding though is that the sudden drop of pressure and motion of water through the pipe can cause a 'water hammer' effect that can set off several other valves in the same pipe.


I certainly wouldn't change anything. I have no trouble believing that the whole building might be on a hair trigger that automatically activates the entire building, or for extreme events even adjacent buildings.
