| I'll have a lot of back to back posts here. I saved all my old profiles. Name: Aluicious Age: 22 Gender: Male Race: Genetically-Altered Human Description Height: 5'11" Build: Slim, yet muscular (Think of a boxer) Eyes: Pale, cold, intense blue Skin: Pale blue, seemingly covered in frost. Hair: Black, but with a blue tint, also frosty. Overall Appearance: Seemingly frozen. Other notable features: A set of large dragon-like wings, which extend from his shoulders nearly to the floor. Aluicious has great control over these wings and uses them as extra appendages during combat. Attire: Wears white pants all the time. In combat he wears nothing else. Often outside combat he wears a black trench coat to hide his wings. He could shapeshift, but save his strength for combat. His odd skin color is usually overlooked, but the wings often attract unwanted attention, so he chooses to just hide those. Aluicious never wears a shirt as it is difficult to do so with his wings. He never wears shoes either. Strengths: Great speed, strength, and agility; can fly; heals rapidly; can over extended periods (a day or two), regenerate severed limbs; strong power over ice; can shapeshift to avoid detection; draws power from the cold; limited telepathic ability Weaknesses: Extreme weakness to fire; repeated injury in a short time span in the same location causes weakness to that area; weaker in the heat; unable to penetrate strong minds; difficulty healing burns; unable to freeze metal except in cases of extreme power increase. Weapons Vengeance (Staff): Relatively plain metal staff with a small, rounded point at the bottom. The top tapers outward to a wide flat end on the top. The edges of this head are not sharp to touch, but if swung with force can cause damage (think of the long corners of a piece of wood. The main staff is made metal that is slightly rough, so as to give the bearer some grip, yet smooth enough to let it easily slide through his hands when necessary. The tips, however, are made of a very smooth, very hard metal. Glacius (Dual Swords): These swords can be attached by chains to Aluicious' wrists. The chains attach themselves to bands that Aluicious wears around his wrists, but actually reside coiled within the sword hilts. The chains can extend to great length, though there appears to be now possible way for the chains to be that long, as the sword hilts are not large enough to contain them. It is believed that this is a result of Aluicious shapeshifting ability being extended to the objects he is in contact with. He changes the size of the chain as needed. Glacius (Dual-Bladed Sword): This sword is a result of Aluicious' two separate Glacius swords becoming attached to each other. The hit of one sword opens up enough to allow the hilt of the other to slide inside. There the ends of the two chains become attached to one another, forming one chain between the two. When needed, Aluicious can separate the hilts, but not the chains, swinging both blades using the chain between them. This chain never extends to the same lengths that the individual sword chains do, and it is believed that this is because the chains remain their actual size. Abilities Shapeshifting: Aluicious can change his appearance so long as he remains in a humanoid form. This gradually saps his strength so he prefers to do this only when he is worried about being seen by someone who would recognize him. He also has the ability to alter the shapes of things he is touching, so long as they are relatively small and also remain in a similar shape to their natural form. (i.e. a sword could be turned into a baseball bat, but not a chicken) Heal: This is not really a conscious ability. Aluicious' body heals at a rapid pace. Most injuries are fully healed within minutes, small cuts and scrapes within seconds. Major injuries take longer, usually a day or two. Even severed limbs can be regenerated. Being decapitated or cut in half is not healable. Repeated healing of the same area over a very short period of time results in a decrease in healing rate in that area as well as a weakness in that area. Shots to vital organs, while survivable, can leave him very weak while they fully heal. Cold Blast: Aluicious is able to fire of cold energy at opponents. This is sort of like cold fire, causing frost burns like fire produces heat burns. These ability takes on various strengths and forms (either a continuous beam or a quick burst) Arctic Blast: An extreme form of cold blast in which sends cold energy out in all directions, cooling the area off to such a degree that things begin to freeze. Aluicious must increase his power to use this ability. Although this move is powerful, it becomes a strain on his power, even with the increase, therefore he rarely uses it. Freeze: Aluicious releases ice energy that causes the target to freeze instantly. Like cold blast, this can be released as a steady beam or a short burst. The freeze is temporary, lasting longer or shorter depending on how much energy was put into the blast. Ice: Aluicious forms ice and launches it at his opponent. The ice formed can be of various forms, from icicles to spheres, to misshapen lumps. Ice Storm: Aluicious summons up a plethora of ice shards and sends them surging toward his opponents. Telepathy: Aluicious can read the minds of most people. He does not have great control over this power and is often unable to turn it off, causing him to be privy to most peoples thoughts, whether he wants to or not. He is able to focus in on a thought, just as most people are able to focus in on a sound, but he often finds it difficult to tune a thought out as it is directly in his head. The minds of the most strong willed people are closed to him. In the case of a very weak-minded person, Aluicious can control their minds, but he prefers not to use this power. When Aluicious draws power, he has more control over this ability. Flight: He has wings. He can fly. Enough said. Charge: Aluicious is able to charge up objects he is holding with ice energy, causing them freeze other objects on impact. The impacted objects are frozen solid and will shatter if hit with enough force. He typically does this with his weapons. This can only be done if Aluicious has increased his power, and he still is unable to freeze metal unless he put an extreme amount of power into the weapon. Draw: Aluicious is able to draw energy by absorbing ice or drawing cold energy from the air. Doing so results in an increase of his power, making stronger overall and allowing him to use certain abilities he could not use otherwise (see above). Inferno: An extreme form of draw used for offensive purposes. Aluicious draws all the cold energy out of an area, causing the temperature in that area to increase so much that things begin to spontaneously combust. Flames will even burst out of the open air. Discharge: Aluicious releases all drawn energy in one blast either directional or an area blast. The intensity of the blast is determined by the amount of energy drawn. History: Aluicious was born a normal human. When he was 2 years old, he was taken from his home after his parent's brutal murder in front of him, and taken to a research company. This company, experimenting with genetic manipulation, preformed various experiments on him, giving him his wings and all his other powers. The ice powers he was given were so extreme that his physical appearance was altered. This company was approached by the military, which saw the potential of the company's research in making super soldiers. After receiving the military's generous offer, the company trained Aluicious in combat tweaking their genetic enhancements to make hem more efficient in combat situations and creating the Glacius swords to compliment his abilities. Aluicious came to resent the company and what they had done to him. When the time came for him to be turned over to the military, Aluicious overpowered the military and the company and fled. He now wanders, never settling down, relying on the skills given to him by his enemies to stay hidden and alive. Personality: Aluicious is kind, but untrusting. He finds it difficult to trust people after what was done to him. However, he has been left with a desire to fight against the kind of people who made him. While he may not trust people he meets he will help him and fight with them toward this end. He also very sad. He never knew his family, and although he was young, flashes of the day he was taken still reside in his memory, including the death of his mother. Having never known love growing up, such feelings often make him uneasy. He is therefore a very difficult person to open up to, or to get to open up in return. He often says what he thinks, regardless of whether it is well received or not. ****************************************************** Age: 25 Personality/History: Aluicious is more stable now. His past no longer haunts him the way it once did. His emotions no longer overpower him. He is more trusting of other. He does not hide his wings anymore, partly because he no longer has to contend with the bounty on his head, having dealt with those who created him, and partly because he has come to terms with what he is, and is no longer ashamed. He has also learned to love, an emotion he only before understood between parent and child, and one which he feels toward a young woman by the name of Tatum, whom he met on his travels, but has not seen for some years. He also feels a strong connection toward the sage Kira, whom he looks on as a mother, despite the fact that she is younger than him. New Abilities Mental Bond: Aluicious has an natural mental affinity for Tatum, which causes all her thoughts to ring clearer and above anyone else's. By focusing on her thoughts, it gives him a mental anchor, allowing him to control his telepathy. While this allows him to shut out other thoughts, it makes hers even more present, which means he often hears thoughts he would rather not hear. ******************************************************* Age: 44 Personality/History: Aluicious has a son now, Aidan. Age and experience have calmed him even more than before. He no longer carries Vengeance, having passed it down to Aidan. Despite his age, he is still as strong as ever, the experiments which created him reducing age's natural effects on him. New Abilities Mental Bond: Aluicious is able to bond with the mind of Aidan. This is different from his bond with Tatum in that rather than focusing on Aidan's thoughts, he and his son join in a mutual melding of minds. The result is not only that Aluicious can control his telepathy, but that his telepathic abilities are stronger, enough so that he is able to attack others minds. Combined Strength: As Aluicious and Aidan share many of the same abilities, namely their power of ice, they are able to combine their strengths for more powerful joint attacks. |

| Aluicous sat on the stool. Or rather was precariously perched on the stool. He finished his third bottle of booze and took a fourth from the bartender. Kira looked ashamed with him, but had obviously decided that she couldn't stop him. He tipped the bottle upside down, but nothing came out. He couldn't figure it out. he leaned back and tipped the bottle some more, shaking it vigorously. He leaned over too much and fell to the ground. The bottle hit the ground and the closed top broke off, leaving a sharp, jagged, yet open bottle.. Aluicious didn't even bother to get up, he just tipped the bottle over and drained it. In one gulp, three quarters of the bottle disappeared. His arm dropped to his side. He shook his head. The voices were so loud. He heard the quiet concern of Kira. The cynical and angsty thoughts of Tatum. The bartender's disgruntled feelings. He could hear the big pimp's idiotic anger over Trixie. He could sense the thoughts and emotions of the whole bar, the whole town. They clouded his mind just as much as the alcohol, and were even harder to control with it in his system. He shook his head. He began pounding it, trying to make the voices stop. They got louder and louder. They were overwhelming. Blood trickled down from his lips, cut due to the broken bottle. The blood dropped onto the floor. The drips collected into one single puddle, which grew bigger and bigger. He stared at the blood, his mind lost in the reflections of the light off of it. The voices continued, louder and louder. Until all of a sudden, they all stopped. And all he heard, was a single, loud scream. Piercing through the air. His home was burning around him. He saw the man, with cuts on his face, walking away from his mother. And he was a young 2 year old child. He ran toward her. "No!" he cried. "Mommy, no!" The leader grabbed him. He struggled, pulling hard against the firm grip. "No, Mommy!," he cried. He began swinging his arms left and right, Trying to swat away the hands that were holding him. Trying to reach the man who was killing her. He pulled and pulled, but could not break free. "MOMMY!!!!!" he cried. He broke free, but the burning house faded. He was in the dark. He couldn't find anyone. Then he tripped and fell. There was light everywhere. His arms were bleeding. He was older now, just slightly. He felt the pain as small, undeveloped wings were growing from his shoulder blades. He saw a hand coming for him. "NO!!" he yelled. "Don't hurt me. Please." The hand held a sharp object. He struggled against the restraints of the operating table, but it was no use. The blade penetrated his flesh, it tore through his arm and caused him pain. He screamed out, crying intensely. He struggled, but it only made the pain worse. Pulling and pulling he finally got free. Finding himself back in his cell, he scurried to the corner, and huddled there, his knees pulled tight against his chest his arms wrapped tight around them, rocking back and forth. He cried, he was hurtm and bloody, and scared. He heard a voice calling to him. "Aluicious! Aluicious!" "No," he said, pulling back more tightly into the corner. "Stay away. Don't hurt me anymore." "Aluicious?" came the voice. "I don't want to hurt you. Come on, let's go." The voice was sweet and comforting. He saw a shilouette of a winged figure. Could it be? An angel? "Mommy?" he asked. Surely it was her. "I want to go home." And with that, his mind slipped away, and he slipped into the dark calm of unconciousness. |
