[Earth-J]The Backwards Man!

Post by Hoid »

[Earth-J]The Backwards Man
Background Writeup:
Theme Song: “The Wretched” by Nine Inch Nails.

Saves: [5pp.]
..........Toughness (+2) +2, Fortitude (+2) +4, Reflex (+0) +2, Will (+1) +2. [5pp.]
Feats: [13pp.]
..........Assessment, Benefit 8 (organizational ties 1 [the Royal Court of Billions of Wings], reputation 1 [current lover of the King of Billions of Wings], status 1 [high priest of the King of Billions of Wings], wealth 5), Equipment 1 (obsidian knife 1), Fearless, Inspire, Skill Mastery 1 (Perform [cold readings], Perform [religious ceremonies], Professions [high priest], Professions [‘seer’]). [13pp.]

[13pp.]

..........Has His Skin on Backwards:
....................Features

..........Mild Regenerator:
....................Immunity

Drawbacks:
..........Disability (-0pp; no pleasure or pain receptors in his body still function).
Complications:
..........High Priest of and Lover to the King of Billions of Wings
....................
This worship and devotion and emotional connection is all that keeps the Backwards Man going, sometimes. As he feels neither pleasure or pain, it’s less about sex and more about emotion. He’d be devastated, if he found out how little his lover really cares for him!
..........His Entire Epidermis is on Backwards
....................
His entire epidermis is on Backwards, as a result of a failed attempt at snaring a pooka into his spiritbox.
..........Must Grievously Injure Himself Each Day Just To Perform Basic Necessities
....................
In order to do things like see, speak, eat, even use the restroom, the Backwards Man mUsT gash himself open in the appropriate area. As a result, he’s lost all sense of touch.
Quote: ”I must suffer just to exist. My pain is never-ending, so spare me the details of your pathetic plight!”
—-/>_-This is a completed the Backwards Man build.
A delusional man who genuinely though himself psychic, Antoine Griffith tried to ‘trap’ an unembodied pooka in his non-existent spiritbox, and ended up becoming catastrophically deformed in the process.

Taken in by an amusing King of Billions of Wings, the Earth-J imperiex had the Backwards Man gifted mild regeneration. The two began a relationship shortly thereafter, but it is virtually entirely one-sided: while the Backwards Man loves and adores His Winged Majesty, the King of Billions of Wings barely tolerates Antoine.

Thanks to the King of Billions Wings, the Backwards Man is well aware of the multiverse!

Complications:
Literally Headless
Without Pindrop—-his Ogre Doll—-Pinhead literally has neither head nor neck.
Obsessed With CCGs
Competitive CCG tournaments were Pinhead’s great joy in life, pre-Ogresymbiosis. This has not changed, and has even affected little Pindrop’s mentality!
Utterly Dependent on Pindrop
Quote: ”...”
—-/>_-This is a completed Pinhead build.
THIS is Pinhead,ma Literally Headless Ogresymbiont. Without his Ogre Doll, Pindrop, Pinhead has no head and thus none of the senses associated thereby. He’s a friendly sort, as he was a CCG enthusiast and all around nerd, pre-Ogresymbiosis.

His real name is Theo Abernathy.
[Earth-L]Pindrop
Background Writeup:
Theme Song:
Pindrop is Titanblooded.
PL0/45pp. (Ogre Doll that serves as a literal head for his greatersourceself [good].)
Attributes: Strength 1 (-5), Dexterity 9 (-1), Constitution 10 (+0), Intelligence 10 (+0), Wisdom 12 (+1), Charisma 10 (+0). [-9pp.]

Drawbacks: Aquatic (-1pp; unless connected to Pinhead, Pindrop is immobile on dry land).
Complications:
EXTREMELY Averse to Violence of Any Kind
Obsessed With Pokémon Cards
Pinhead’s pre-Ogresymbiosis infatuation has carried over to Little Pindrop, who’s obsessed with everything Pokémon-related: the TV shows, the video games, the toys, and, above all else, the card game. He’s too simple-minded to really understand the rules, though, so he just instead makes them up as he goes along.
Quote: ”Play Pokémon with lessersourceself? Please?”
—-/>_-This is a completed Pindrop build.
THIS is Pindrop, a Quickmind Ogre Doll who literally serves as Pnhead’s head. Childlike and eager to do his very best for his greatersourceself, What Pindrop really wants is to play various Pokémon games all day.
TOGETHER, Pinhead and Pindrop are perfect examples of the ‘average’ Demiogre, just trying to live and life and get onbwith things.

Pinhead and Pindrop are bioconnected to Qthulku, and thus’re broodkin to Monarch and Omut. They live in Qthulku’s Hollow, but travel frequently.

They only speak English.

As Demiogres, their blood can be used to cultivate large doses of the TEGS virus.

Neither Pinhead or Pindrop is aware of 5he larger multiverse, though Pindrop would become excited, wanting to go visit the entirely fictional Pokémon ‘universe’.

Remember,we turned Earth-Q into the Aniverse. Think more along the lines of Firefly than Star Trek in regard's to Crew size.

I’ll stat him up, anyways, but, if you want humor, I’ll make them ultra-exgelord space pirates from Earth-D. That world is my parody of 1990s comics, a satirical Iron Age that attempts to out-Iron Age the actual comics’ Iron Age. A platypus pirate fits right into Earth-D like a glove!

Earth-Q is an aquatic setting, with virtually entirely amphibious and/or aquatic superbeings. It’s bright and hopeful, but isn’t goofy.

Actually, Bucky O'Hare and The Toad Wars was ANYTHING but Goofy. It was basically Skynet meets Lazy Movie Nazi's, but fairly dark toned...

No, I’m doing a complicated series of builds for Earth-J, first. It’s not difficult, just time-consuming. What I’m going to end up doing—-a trick I learned from Jab!—-is your request will have a single build, with short entries outlining differences.

Complications:
Has Lived For Three Hundred Years

Over all this time, he’s grown quite arrogant. Sometimes, just sometimes, he will even secretly imagine himself as a god, terrible in splendor and might.
A Highly Cerebral Mystic
Simply Assumes He Cannot Die
Quote:
”For one who has conquered death, fear holds no more meaning.”

—-/>_-This is a completed Fu Manchu writeup.
In the centuries prior to the Mutation Wars, Fu Manchu was a maharajah telepath crime lord, with influence through Asia. When he was killed by his own eldest son in a coup d’eta, he found he could possess his own blood descendants.

Gaining this immortality prompted him to sire enormous numbers of children, and encourage HIS children to give him enormous numbers of GRANDchildren, and so.

Now, with an official family several thousand strong, along with nearly one hundred illegitimate children, Fu Manchu has come to believe has conquered death.

Fu Manchu is an uneasy ally of the Orbital Man.

He is aware of the larger multiverse, though he’s not terribly interested in the subject!

[Earth-C]Anu!

Post by Hoid »

[Earth-C]Anu
Background Writeup:

Theme Song:
Anu is psychic...except when he’s not. If he really wanted to, he could exist as a Titanblooded, then stop being one, later.
PL10/variable pp, baseline of 272pp.
Attributes: Intelligence 30 (+10). [20pp.]
Feats: Master Plan. [1pp.]
Powers:
Self-Creating Omnipotent Omnibody Generation: Variable Power
30 (any number of traits of the ‘Creating a Living Body From the Wind’ descriptor; Extras: Duration [continuous]; Feats: Variable Descriptor [any ‘Aerokinetic’]). [272pp.]
Complications:
Beyond Human Comprehension

What is it like, not existing, then somehow consciously deciding to create yourself, only to cease to exist as you choose? The mortal mind can’t comprehend such a state.
Creates Himself Anew Every Day
Anu doesn’t exist. He must create himself, making him a living paradox...except when he isn’t.
Until he creates himself, Anu doesn’t exist. Upon creating himself, generating himself from the very wind itself, Anu must build himself a body with which to exist; in other words, he has 150pp in addition to what’s listed above to completely reinvent himself, even bending his gender if he so feels like it. Upon existing, he is a 422pp character. His personality radically changes, as well, sometimes his whole identity is subsumed by his new self.

However, the bodies he creates to exist within must be aerokinetics. They needn’t be human, and can even be robotic or made of energy. Furthermore, he doesn’t have to his his base power at full blast, giving himself weaker existences as is needed.

Anu belongs to the multiverse-spanning organization known as the Worlds’ Henge.. As a result, Anu knows the multiverse inside and out...sometimes. When he wants to.
