As a result of collaborative effort, this RPG was made...

You wake up one morning and find out you have superpowers. You don't know whether you should brag about them or keep them to yourself. After all, you're the only one around that has a superpower. There is a high crime rate in the city, so you know that superpowers could help the crime rate lower. You could also join the criminals and fight for power.

CHARACTER SHEET

Name: [obvious]
Age: [don't be an idiot; however powerful, four-year-olds cannot control their powers well enough to participate effectively]
Two Superpowers: [must be specific enough not to be overpowered]
Physical Description: [at least 4 sentences]
Bio: [At least 5 sentences, optional]
Skills: [up to 3 skills, such as training or leadership]
Attacks: n/a

Inventory: n/a

LEVEL: 1
EXP: [0/100]
Health: 0/100 [self explanatory; total increases by 50 each level up]

Fame: 0 [how well known you are]
Good: 0 [how much people like you]
Evil: 0 [how much people dislike you]
--------------------------------

======
RULES:
======
1) You may not choose a superpower that is too powerful, as determined by the GM.
2) You may not choose any omniscient superpowers, no matter how watered-down, as they always cause issues later when you are a complete generalist and can handle any situation.
3) Do not god-mod other characters, though you may lightly control NPC's. Yes, you will all interact in some time, since you all live in the city of Metroville.
4) No insta-kills when having a multiplayer fight. In the case of a multiplayer fight, the first one to post is the attack the other person must respond to.

Name: Himes (Storm) Keket
Age: 22
Two Superpowers: Shape-shifting(only into a white wolf that is big enough to ride), Darkness wielding(Can see in a pitch black room unless something is covering her eyes or she has been made blind by her wounds. Can look into a shadowy area and see it as if the shadows didn't exist. Can command the shadows around her to hurt or hold someone or something within the same area. This power takes twice as much energy during the day to use. Must be looking directly at a shadowy area to see it as if the shadow didn't exist. Can't make a room darker then it is.)
Physical Description: Storm has short hair that is a dark enough shade of brown to be mistaken for black. She is about 5'10. She has lightly tanned skin. She has brown eyes that have a hint of green in them.
Bio: Storm was born to a rich family that cared a lot about nature. About a month after she was born her parents were assassinated. The assassin didn't kill her because he had no idea that the she exist and wasn't smart enough to cheek every room in the mansion. A wolf, whose pack lived on the same land as Storm's parents, got into the mansion after the assassin had left and found Storm. He took her to his pack and they raised her. She now lives in the mansion that was left to her and works with humans when needed. She never left the pack that raised her so it's members still protect her and anyone she tells them is her friend or family.

You wake up in your mansion. Last night was a hard night, work was tough. You know that you must go to work again, but you don't know if you should quit your job as a professional survivalist.

You somehow wander into the city. As soon as you walk in, somebody has put you in a lock and asks for your money.

You burn him and he runs away in fear. "It's the Devil!!! Help!!!" he yells, "He's come to take us all!"

At a corner, he is stopped by a police officer and questioned. He points at you, as a human form. The police officers check it out and head towards you. You stay standing in a dominating form.

I say, "Whatever he may be telling you, he did in fact attempt to mug me."

(Nice, thanks.)

I smile at him. "I am a friend of Justice. Unfortunately for you, it's my own personal Justice. My name is Azrael." I transform, and claw him in the stomach.

The other officer, surprised, takes out his gun and attempts to shoot you, though your demonic body cannot be harmed by physical means. (It can be harmed by elemental means such as "earth-benders" [using Avatar as an example] bending earth to attack you. So, your demonic body can only be hurt through superpowers, but not by humans]

You've killed the officers, and the man has burned to ashes. The police car is unlocked and has its engine running.

(So, you're evil, right?)

I transform back to a human, then get in the car and search it, and check the fuel levels.

There is a convict in the back, cuffed up. He seems to be scared of you. There is also some money and an empty pistol (no ammo) in the glovebox. The fuel meter reads 3/4 full. The transmission is automatic.
