Torchbearers, that's what the greatest superhumans are called. Throughout history there have been those that enacted great change, even among the millions of superhumans that have existed. The modern era is no exception, not by any definition of the word. This is the tale of those known as Torchbearers.

Name: Leopold Fuchs
Age: 153
Superhuman Type: Energist
Powers/Abilities: healing factor, longevity, swordsman, spy, wealthy
Cause of Powers: activated in 1890 when he was nearly beat to death in a Japanese ally.
Appearance: blond, blue eyes, lean, refuses to wear anything produced in Asia.
Backstory/Fluff: Born in Austria, quite wealthy. Was in Japan for business when he was assaulted by gangsters. WWI rolls around, fights for Austria, but soon realizes that Germany had duped them, starts acting as a spy for the french. Aftermath, goddamn socialists, moves to America to preserve his riches. WWII fucking japs again, acting like savages. Feeds false info to axis powers for a bit, before working as a full on super spy. Same shit through the cold war. Went missing during Korean and Vietnam wars, though occasional sightings of some form of evil spirit have been attributed to his work. Found out about Aeromium somewhere in the 90s, shits given rapidly decreasing.

Name: Paul Johnson
Age: 32
Superhuman Type: Geni
Powers/Abilities: IT and Robotics, Neurosurgery, Robotic Strong Arm
Cause of Powers: Maybe he was born with it. Maybe it's maybelline
Appearance: Gruff, weathered and scarred. Paul wears large coats with big collars to hide his face and hides his eyes with a grey baseball cap. He wears a glove to hide his robotic arm.
Backstory/Fluff: Peter Mijovic was born in the Mid-west of USA. At a very young age, he displayed signs of super intelligence. He was put on a governmental watch-list and his housed was surveyed 24/7. When he got his license at 16, one of the first things he did was drive his car off a cliff and fake his death. He created fake documents to pass as Paul Johnson and moved to the megalopolis of New York. Living near the red light district of "The Deuce" in a dirty, cramped high-rise; Paul does mechanical repairs and works as IT support off the books so he doesn't pay taxes. He has taught himself neurosurgery and attached a robotic arm to the nerves in his left arm which he amputated himself at the shoulder. Every night he falls asleep staring out his window down at the electric streets below.

Name: Dr. Peanut Peppercorn Perrier Percival Pontifract III, Esquire, prof, etc etc
Age: 16
Superhuman Type: Serum Soldier
Powers/Abilities: Supergenius IQ, Lifespan 13 times longer than a normal Orangutan, High number of Science-knowledge skills
Cause of Powers: Subject of an Intelligence Boosting serum test, Obsolete primate testing lab, Central Asian country
Appearance: Long-bearded green skinned orangutan with a much larger head than normal, the head's large cranium bald. Frequently wears dramatic opera-going capes and amulets.
Backstory/Fluff: Originally a simple orangutan who began life in borneo, he was transported to a dictators private zoo after being illegally bought from poachers. A long time later he was sold to a central asian government as part of a primate testing program, where a very large amount of serum was accidentally injected into his body via a helmet with hypodermic needles that stabbed through his eyeballs directly into his brain. The extreme amount of serum made him not only sentient, but far above genius in IQ, as well as greatly increasing his lifespan, though that was unintentional. Peppercorn began to read every book he could get his paws on, and it soon became abundantly clear how smart he was. Soon after that he was an assistant in the lab. Soon after that he escaped into the world, filled with secret hate towards the denizens of the earth, and determined to conquer not just the earth, but every possible earth, in every possible dimension.

Name: Marcus Chandler
Age: 20?
Superhuman Type:(Broodling)
Powers/Abilities: shapeshifting, assimilation, limited energist, superhuman will (along with superhuman stubbornness)
Cause of Powers: was born from a human mother and an aethling father
Appearance: natural form: hairless gray pallid skin, solid blue eyes, white hair, tall. public form: tan skin, blue eyes, black hair, tall, broad-shouldered.
Backstory/Fluff: Marcus does not remember his childhood or whether he was ever actually a child at some point. In fact, Marcus only got his name from assimilating a random man on the street and decided on taking it for his own, since he felt like he could not come up with anything better. The only thing he knows is that compared to the people around him his form is decidedly alien, he can transform into a slime like entity that assimilates whatever it dissolves, can mimic the traits he has absorbed, and feels a distant connection to some far away force that manifests similarly to energists on earth. With nothing guiding him but his own instincts he has settled for living as a nomad where he assimilates anything unique and is currently trying to master his alien powers.

>>40176
Name: Tom Kater
Age: Current year - 1871
Superhuman Type: Geni
Powers/Abilities: Supersmart Boy (Mostly: Bio-Engineering, Superhumans, Metaphysical Connections), No Dying from Old Age
Cause of Powers: Being a smart boy, probably
Backstory/Fluff:
Born in 1871 into a humble middle class family Tom grew up a model student, excelling in just about every subject, though most specifically Biology. Spending his early teenage years solving the issue of aging with ease the Geni turned to more complex matters, coming up with early forms of biological engineering especially taking interest in the Genetic makeup of Energists and the ways their bodies attuned to and utilized the earth's energy. Tom dropped out of medical school roughly two weeks in, claiming that what they were teaching was nothing short of barbaric simplicism.
Having some part in the early development of Superhumans during the First World War once funding had been shut down Mr. Kater continued his own brand of research, largely abandoning the idea of altering humans into killing machines and instead creating creatures of equal destructive potential from scratch.
After doing nothing anybody would be aware of during the Second World War, Tom had learned that controlling a test tube bread war beast was perhaps not the easiest of tasks as he could not be constantly be around them and raising each one of them as a pet would prove a tiring task that could not be delegated to the average imbecile.
Observing insects it was that Kater finally found something that once more earned his interest. The way large groups of insects acted in unison, seemingly without communicating with each other. Certainly a Hive was limited in its various connections, however then again, the Earth was able to channel its energy into human vessels. If Kater could find a way to gather, contain and distribute energy in the same way the Earth did and delegate it akin to the Insects he would be able to create a Hivemind, placing himself at its center, granting him almost total control over whatever he could subject to it. Certainly a subject worth pursuing.

Backstory/Fluff:
Sciency
1. Now working on his own and largely for his own it was in Tom's best interest to stay alive. A quick bit of engineering that would enable him to gain rapid regenerative properties in case of injury would certainly help out a great deal.
2. Kater required a place where he could perform his experiments without much of a care. Browsing through some nice pictures of islands he would pick one that provided sufficient infrastructure and appealing climate, as well as not too tourist filled beaches and reclusive hideout options.

Name: Maria "Rift Walker" Caldwell
Age: 25 (32?)
Superhuman Type: Warped
Powers/Abilities: teleportation, cosmic manipulation
Cause of Powers: caught in a localized black hole while working as an assistant (read: Guinea pig/gopher) for a Geni
Appearance: Tall blonde and fair, Her eyes are solid black orbs with stars inside them slowly orbiting the center
Backstory/Fluff: While working as an assistant for a Geni, Maria was caught in one of their experiments with time space dilation opening a black hole in the lab, thankfully the fail safes kicked in and closed the black hole, but not before Maria was torn from this world.
She was missing for seven years before she managed to find her way back. The tale she told of the black hole was one of creation and destruction, she claimed to have experienced the big bang and became part of the universe that was created within the black hole as the universe became one with her. To those who would ask if she claimed to be god she would simply say that she was God of her universe, which may not be this one. With the power to summon the energies that she created and was created of from her personal reality she is able to manipulate the energies of ours, to either form things she requires at the time or even just throw the mass of energy around, or perhaps to rip open spatial tears temporarily to travel from one point in space to another by traveling through her own universe.

Paul Johnson. White male, 32 years old. Likes his coffee black and lives on a diet of chinese food and pizza. Spends his days doing mechanical work and IT, an average joe tryna make it through life lile everybody else. Doesnt talk much, always wears coats, and has a glove on like he's michael jackson. Not the strangest thing in the world, if anything it could be considered normal.
Too bad it's all faker than a photoshopped actress' body. Well, most of it.
"So how we doin this?" Says my partner as we walk up the steps of the building to get our guy. Devin's his name, a short guy with small eyes. Me and Devin have been working on cases like these for years, and from what I know our guy is no different than most. "Simple job today, either he does as we say or we put him down."
Devin grunts behind me. "Damn, wish we could get a fun one for once." Considering what Devin can do in quarters like these, he'd be the only one who would have fun here. After a couple minutes we arrive at Peter's door. I look down at Devin and he nods. It's time to get to work.
I knock loudly on the door. "Hello? Anybody home?" See this is always the first test. Do they open the door or not? Easiest way to tell their real motives.

Tom is a Geni, and like any true Geni he is resourceful. Using muscle tissue, machinery, and parts of his own biology, he creates a small hand held device able to rapidly heal his body in the case of an emergency. It is only single use, but Tom doesn't plan on getting hurt more than once. After developing his new device he locates an isolated island, one for him to safely settle into. After a little bit of hassling and planning he manages to locate one in the bermuda triangle, with plenty of areas for him to set up in. He acquires the base smoothly, and now is the proud owner of his own island.

Marcus, a very out of place broodling if there was one. Of all the worlds he couldve been born on he wasnt born on home, where he was connected to. On the contrary he found himself on an alien world known as earth, the faint energy filled strings of home too far away for him to draw upon. As he tries to channel the energy of home into his knives he find that his connection is too weak to fully empower them. Giving up on the task he continues wandering the city in search of interesting prey, until…
"H…help me…" he hears as he passes an alley. Marcus turns to see an interesting sight, a veritable massacre. Bodies lie torn apart and bloody, clothing torn to shreds. Nearby a seemingly bipedal machine lay toppled over, broken and oozing oil. Next to the machine lies the man who called for help. He wears armor that hides his body, but it does nothing to hide the sword sticking out of his stomach. The blade is made of some strange metal, one that draws Marcus to it. He walks over to the man, grips the sword, and smoothly pulls it out of the unknown figure. The armored man lets out a gasp and grips his wound, while Marcus absorbs the blade into his body. The features absorb into him, and just like that he feels a little closer to home.
+Aeromium Weapon: Blade
"H…hey, little help here." Says the wounded man as he holds his stomach, putting his hand up to Marcus for help.

Rift Walker, that was her name. Or rather, the name she had chosen for herself as she became something more. No longer was she a mere mortal, she was Maria Cadwell, universe incarnate. In the vastness of space she sits and meditates. Stars flare as her mental energy passes them, primitive worlds experience religious frenzy at the mere glance of her mind, and the born brains of other civilizations find themselves made mentally ill, not due to imperfection but enlightenment. As Rift Walker meditates she moves her mind through space, before finally remembering the mortal beings known as her family. With but a thought she is on earth, in front of the home she was born and raised in. Two stories, home to her mother, father, and possibly brother.
She walks up to the door and knocks. After a few moments of silence the door opens, and she is greeted bt the face of her younger brother Dane. He is older, more mature, and very very surprised. "Maria?!" He yells, and he lunges forward to give his big sister a hug as from behind comes the voices of Rift Walker's mother and father as they rush to the front door. Time for a family reunion.

1. Normally Marcus would simply take advantage of such a situation and devour the wounded man along with the rest of the bodies here, but in a rare moment of benevolence instead of instinct he stays his hand and attempts to help heal the armored figure by letting his hand turn to ooze and have it seep into his wound. whether or not it will work or horrifically mutate his insides will remain to be seen.

Name: Heba Setareh Zaman / Uraeusanaya
Age: Immemorial, current self 69
Superhuman Type: Warped
Powers/Abilities: Clairvoyance; Minor Telekinetic Zone Control; Minor-Moderate Stamina and Endurance boost; Various pieces of information both important and miscellaneous; Immortal/Rebirth/Extended Lifetime
Cause of Powers: Blessed by the gods???
Appearance: Shapely, dusky pale to tanned, above average height, White to Arctic Blue colored hair, Honey to Goldish color eyes
Backstory/Fluff: Heba's first memory was of a vast grassland with forest and mountains in the distance. Since then, Heba would remember bits and pieces of her past lives and slowly go insane from her ignorance, until the invention of writing. Writing allowed her to accurately record her memories and remember more and more than her past lives could. She was not limited to remembering her past, for she could also see into the future. These abilities, along with her apparent immortality, made her famous throughout the ancient world. Though she doesn't remember all her lives, she's seen enough to hone her talents and even help her get through in day to day life. Her ability allows her cast her senses out around her in a radius that expands the longer she uses, sensing the world around her and even seeing the future. She can cast this vision out, minimizing the zone around her, but being able to see a narrow area more distant. Her ability to see the future is limited to things she can sense. Another ability she has is the ability to control the space within her zone. She can nudge or levitate anything within her sphere of control, helping to save her life if she's foretelling a future and doesn't notice till too late. Perhaps her most important ability is her immortality. If she is not killed, she will live to the age of 200, aging at 3/11ths the speed of the average human, before becoming essentially mortal, aging and then dying at the normal rate afterwards. Heba materialized before a middle-aged couple in a remote village in Egypt. Her foster parents told her they saw a flash of light and when they went to investigate, they found her sleeping, with snow white hair that rapidly changed to her resting arctic blue color. They thought she was an Angel Superhuman sent from God, so they took her and raised her as their own. Her parents died when she was 40, and she set out into the world, wandering from city to city, using her powers to survive. She traveled all across the middle east and Europe, learning all she could, and now, she's just arrived in West Africa, to explore the wild jungles and learn about the ancient and exotic customs there.

1. Tom would immediately commence setting up base. Creating some workers of very basic intelligence from local animal species he would use them to set up a place to serve as base and home for his more advanced experiments he was going to work on.
2. Furthermore the Geni would alter some local fruit to grow rapidly and more healthily so they could provide ample food for both Tom and his modified animal workers.

Name: Heba Setareh Zaman / Uraeusanaya
Age: Immemorial, current self 69
Superhuman Type: Warped
Powers/Abilities: Clairvoyance; Minor Telekinetic Zone Control; Minor-Moderate Stamina and Endurance boost; Various pieces of information both important and miscellaneous; Immortal/Rebirth/Extended Lifetime
Cause of Powers: Blessed by the gods???
Appearance: Shapely, dusky pale to tanned, above average height, White to Arctic Blue colored hair, Honey to Goldish color eyes
Backstory/Fluff: Heba's first memory was of a vast grassland with forest and mountains in the distance. Since then, Heba would remember bits and pieces of her past lives and slowly go insane from her ignorance, until the invention of writing. Writing allowed her to accurately record her memories and remember more and more than her past lives could. She was not limited to remembering her past, for she could also see into the future. These abilities, along with her apparent immortality, made her famous throughout the ancient world. Though she doesn't remember all her lives, she's seen enough to hone her talents and even help her get through in day to day life. Her ability allows her cast her senses out around her in a radius that expands the longer she uses, sensing the world around her and even seeing the future. She can cast this vision out, minimizing the zone around her, but being able to see a narrow area more distant. Her ability to see the future is limited to things she can sense. Another ability she has is the ability to control the space within her zone. She can nudge or levitate anything within her sphere of control, helping to save her life if she's foretelling a future and doesn't notice till too late. Perhaps her most important ability is her immortality. If she is not killed, she will live to the age of 200, aging at 3/11ths the speed of the average human, before becoming essentially mortal, aging and then dying at the normal rate afterwards.

1; Heba had just arrived in Dakar, Senegal. It was a bit dusty, but everybody was very nice to her and she had hoped to see what this country had to offer. She decided to see the sights and get to know the people.
2; She would need a place to stay, though, so after sightseeing, she would ask around for a nice, but not so expensive place to stay.

Paul, knowing that nobody ever knocks on his door, immediately begins to leave his apartment. Grabbing whatever he needs he goes to his fire escape and swiftly makes his way down it. Before he reaches the ground he hear's a loud boom from his room, but Paul isn't the type of idiot to wait around. He joins the throbbing crowded streets, and makes his way to time square…
"Could you not blow the door down next time?" I ask Devin. My partner shrug's and walks inside of the apartment ahead of me. "I'll think about it." he says as he looks around the apartment, his eyes landing on the open window. Well it looks like our guy is escaping. Figures. I walk to the window and look outside, getting the barest glimpse of our target as he dissapears. That's all I need. I turn and walk out the door, and Devin follows behind me…

Dane's face scrunches up somewhat as emotions stir in his chest. "How do you think we've been?!" he lashes. Rift Walker's mother and father turn to scold her brother, but he stomps off angrily before they can say a word. Her father lets out a sigh. "Dont worry, he's as happy to see you as we are. He's just emotional." Rift Walker's mother and father bring her inside and sit her down for them to catch up.
"So, what happened to you? We've been worried sick about you!" Ask her Mother. Rift Walker speaks to them, in the process enlightening them to the fact she is a superhuman by telling them about a race that has gained flight in her world. At those words they visibly become relieved. "Oh thank god you just became a superhuman, we were worried something terrible happened to you!" It seems they take the info very well.

"What are you doing?" Ask's the man as Marcus puts his hand forward, the pale flesh beginning to ooze down to the wound on his chest. It flows over it slowly, and the bleeding begins to fade just a bit as Marcus absorbs some of the damage. The man can breathe easier, but is still in pain. "Holy crap…" he whispers. "Thank's I guess." He begins to struggle to his feet, but the alien mind of Marcus is already focused elsewhere, such as on what items are worth being absorbed. Sadly the aeromium blade was the only thing truly worth his time, and as he notices that he hear's the man gasping from behind me. "God damnit, hurts like hell. Hey pal, think you can help me out here?" he croaks.

"MISSY!" came the loud yell of a vendor in Heba's direction. She turned to see a short dark skinned man wearing a tunic, a wide smile on his face as he looked at her. He was a clothing vendor, something easy to tell based on the dresses and tunics and other items surrounding him. He had a certain charisma to himself, an energy that pervaded him as he beckoned Heba over. "I have dress just for you, come, look!" Curious, Heba heads over to the man, who shows her a beautiful flower patterned dress in the local senegal fashion. After some chatting she buys it, and inquires about a place to stay. The man, who introduces himself as Diop, think's for a moment before telling Heba she could stay with him for the night as a thanks for being such a good customer. She agrees, thanking him for the arrangement.
+Contact: Diop
+Stay at Diop's home(remove after one turn)

Backstory/Fluff: Peter Mijovic was born in the Mid-west of USA. At a very young age, he displayed signs of super intelligence. He was put on a governmental watch-list and his housed was surveyed 24/7. When he got his license at 16, one of the first things he did was drive his car off a cliff and fake his death. He created fake documents to pass as Paul Johnson and moved to the megalopolis of New York.

Name: Marcus Chandler
Age: 20?
Superhuman Type:(Broodling)
Powers/Abilities: shapeshifting, assimilation, limited energist, superhuman will (along with superhuman stubbornness)
Cause of Powers: was born from a human mother and an aethling father
Appearance: natural form: hairless gray pallid skin, solid blue eyes, white hair, tall. public form: tan skin, blue eyes, black hair, tall, broad-shouldered.
Backstory/Fluff: Marcus does not remember his childhood or whether he was ever actually a child at some point. In fact, Marcus only got his name from assimilating a random man on the street and decided on taking it for his own, since he felt like he could not come up with anything better. The only thing he knows is that compared to the people around him his form is decidedly alien, he can transform into a slime like entity that assimilates whatever it dissolves, can mimic the traits he has absorbed, and feels a distant connection to some far away force that manifests similarly to energists on earth. With nothing guiding him but his own instincts he has settled for living as a nomad where he assimilates anything unique and is currently trying to master his alien powers.
Actions
1+2. since everything of value here was taken, Marcus begins helping the man. He asks whether the man has a base he can go to or whether he needs to go to the hospital. also see if we can get some sort of vehicle.
