#engineer corps

Name: N/A (again, hadnt thought of it)

Codename: Treads

Gender: N/A (though uses male pronouns)

Ethnicity: Japanese

Height: 5 feet 0 inches

Weight: N/A

Sexual Orientation: N/A

Weapon: High Octane Octopoduralux (working name, but its derived from octopodes (eight feet/limbs) and dura lux (hard light))

Affiliations: Engineer Corps (currently) , formerly several crime rings, and his estranged family

Abilities: 

Deception

Superhuman agility, speed and reflexes

keen knowledge of criminal underworld

master thief

His (oni) kabuki mask comes with thermal vision and a built-in gas mask. it also alters his voice.

Capacity to generate and manipulate hard-light “limbs” (projections) within a limited sphere around him; these have a patterned appearance like tank treads. the initial limit is evidently, 8. (its later increased to sixteen)

He can manipulate objects with them, and solidly bind objects together, 

Great stealth abilities

He can manipulate the hard-light limbs onto himself, such as forming a giant first. However, unlike Boiler, this does not actually strengthen his punches. He uses it as a bluff.

The limbs are capable of slicing through a lot of things on account of their thin edges, but they do not carry a large amount of force. They cannot fully cut through dense materials.

After a few upgrades to his weapon, he can form wings on which he can glide

After said upgrades, he is also capable of maintaining partial camouflage (not invisibility) while stationary for up to a maximum of fifteen minutes

After his upgrades, he can form himself armor and a sword out of his light limbs (however maintaining this takes the full power of his weapon); after a few failed attempts at a comfortable design and a few wisecracks from his team, he settles on a samurai-inspired design of armor to compliment his kabuki mask. 

After several years with his weapon, if he focuses enough, he can extend his senses outward with it (unfortunately leaving him vulnerable to attacks coming from outside his radius); this is useful for observing around corners

He is able to sync his weapon with those of some of his teammates, allowing for more powerful combo-based moves. 

Weaknesses:

Manipulative, disloyal

he holds animosity towards pretty much everyone

he is a convict, serving his time and parole on the Corps

If you mention the concept of honor around him (because he’s fed up with damn stereotype jokes, and it strikes a nerve close to home with his past) you’ll find yourself with a blade at your throat

He is downright vicious; during his first few months with the team, he nearly kills several enemies and endangers countless civilians (which only lands him in further hot water, with an even longer, more restrictive sentence)

Despite the name, his weapon does not run on octane; rather an experimental derivative that is slowly killing him

His weapon was stolen and he used it for a series of heists before being caught and sentenced; due to improper understanding of the weapon, it is in a constant state of reconfiguration; connection to his nervous system makes this incredibly painful and if interrupted would surely kill him

Spanner the team’s leader and medic is one of the few people in the world with knowledge and expertise to keep him alive.

Treads has a very very high metabolism. His blood sugar is also prone to fluctuate, meaning he has occasionally come very close to entering a diabetic coma

He is very fast, but not very strong. he prefers to avoid direct combat as he is very easily thrown around. He prefers to strike in a blurr of cutting edges from shadows as he darts about

Relationships:

he hates the military government alliance under which he is employed as part of the Engineer Corps

He has trust and care for his teammates, as they are the first people he’s ever met who haven’t abandoned him despite having nothing to gain from him (he nearly killed a lot of people at first)

He has a complex past with his family who abandoned him from a young age

He has various underworld connections; most of which to whom he owes something

Personality:

Arrogant, self-centered and easy to anger, he’s always got a smirk on his face and a glint in his eye. While he may be “reforming” as a criminal, that doesn’t stop him from stealing. While he’s around, any food left unattended in The Station is fair game (and usually gone down his gullet). He has an extreme competitive streak. He’s usually found hanging around in the rafters of the base, where his room is located; incidentally he enjoys attempting to spy on others (he’s a bit of a gossip; though he claims it to be gathering blackmail) and planning pranks when he’s bored.  

While he maintains a snide and crass personality, he’s not a complete asshole; thanks to him, nothing in the base stays misplaced for long, and he does help with cleaning with his powers. He also will participate in movie nights (usually by hanging down from the rafters, trying not to be seen) and the occasional board game. (or as he always insists on saying, a bored game). For rather obvious reasons he has been banned from ever participating in any card games. especially poker. He is a huge fanatic of video games (as they allow him to satisfy his competitive edge) and will play with the others on occasion (usually remotely from his room. And no matter how much you egg him on, he will never admit that he plays Pokemon almost religiously)

Name: N/A (i’m shit at coming up with these things)

Codename: Boiler

Gender: Female

Ethnicity: Black 

Height: 5 foot 8 inches

Weight: ??? (idk, i couldnt quite figure out the weight range of female body-builders)

Sexual Orientation: Demiromantic Ace

Weapon: Piston Powersuit

Affiliation: Engineer Corps, (possibly other stuff once i do more worldbuilding)

Abilities:

Initially: 

Above Average Strength and Stamina thanks to physical training regiment

High pain threshold/endurance thanks to training

Super-strong punches and recoil absorption

Generation of high heat

Shockwaves

Secondary (upgrades):

Mild flight (more like super-jumps and careful landings)

Generation of electricity

Temporary boost to the power of surrounding machines (and subsequently, the technology of some of her teammates)

Specially aimed shockwaves, equivalent to an air gun/cannon

Super-strong kicks

General super-human strength (enough to lift cars)

Explosive Punches

Meltdown attack (highly destructive last resort) 

Under the right conditions, can generate small thunderstorm

Weaknesses:

Smoker (in fact she nearly always has a cigarette in her mouth, even during her weight-lifting. Team leader and medic, Spanner, loathes it, but is equally too terrified to try to intervene)

Powers rely on steam-power. The stronger the attack, the more steam it consumes. 

Powers produce heat. too much causes severe burns, and can even cause her meltdown mode.

Prone to ignore injuries (when she does this and tries to continue her training regiment, Spanner confiscates her equipment)

Powers are slightly linked to emotions. Not just ones like anger, but all of them. She is also prone to mood swings (i’ll probably associate a disorder for that later but ive not done enough research as of now)

Not really a weakness, but she tends to have bad hair days, a LOT because of all the heat and moisture associated with her abilities/equipment. It doesnt help her moods. 

Between her adaptation to heat and her relatively low BMI, she can’t handle cooler temperatures.

Yeah, but Tai’zohn (or if you want the old, simpler name, Tyson) has no letter repetition! 

M: Who is the biggest memer?

Hmm well in WotW, the closest to such a thing would probably be Jake, since he’s a lil shit. Overall though, the award for biggest memer goes to “Treads” of the Engineer Corps. (Whose real name i have yet to conceive)

A: Who is the most attractive: 

*shrug* i dunno, depends on the definition of “attractive”, and most of em are aliens XD 

X: Who is the most xenial towards complete strangers?

James “Spanner” Thompson, leader of the Engineer Corps; he does his best to see the good in everyone and be as civil as possible, sometimes a little too much so. Some believe it to be one of his bigger flaws as a leader.

I: Who tends to idolize people they shouldn’t?

I don’t know about “idolize”... but probably Tai’zohn, he has too much respect for the intellect of his opponents (and can get too easily enamored with new tech said enemies have developped (although he refuses to acknowledge doing either behaviour))

U: Who is the most unapologetic for the way they live their life?

“Fireball” (i, at one point, did give him a proper freaking name, which i cannot for the life of me currently remember or find! Oh well i’ll have to redo it) He doesn’t believe in leading an apologetic life. Apologies and pity don’t undo tragedies.

S: Who has the strongest spirit?

Daemonne in E9:

Either someone stole something of hers and she cornered them or she’s been assigned a target she really wants to kill. (it looks better on paper, trust me!) (also her pupils are normally not this small)

“Buckshot” Becky, in a combo of A/B 2:

the expression wasnt as hard as drawing the hand was for on her.(which is weird im normally good at hands!)
