(Describe what they look like! Cover their physical appearance, typical clothing and of course their costume if they have one.)

 

History:
(Remember we are a relatively family friendly site. Your story should be PG-13 at most. If your character wouldn't fit in an episode of Justice League Unlimited, The Dresden Files, or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, you'll need to rethink it. When in doubt, ask a Staff Member.)

 

Personality & Motivation:
(Describe why they do what they do here.)

 

Powers & Tactics:
(In-character descriptions of how they do what they do.)

 

Power Descriptions:
(Describe the appearance of their powers as applicable: the colour of energy blasts, the shape of portals, the design of a battlesuit. Also give an idea of the Descriptors those powers use: fire, technological, cosmic energy, etc.)

 

Complications:
A Congress of Ravens: Having embraced her future family Callie has a number of Summer's and Raven who might feel the need to interfer in her life. Especially as they all depend on her becoming the current Calliope.

A Conspiracy of Ravens: Someone bought her into the future, potentially breaking the timeline, who and why are unknown. She may occasional suffer weird temporal effects at the most inopportune of moments.

An Aerie of Ravens: Whilst she more or less acclimated to the 21st century this isn’t her home time and sometime she feels lost in a world isn’t her own. She hides it mostly but someone in the know could trigger her homesickness.

A Murder of Ravens: Over the years the Raven has gained a number of enemies overs the years, both her father and (future) self.

A storytelling of Ravens: Being a fervent blogger and you-tuber much of Madame Ravens superhero life is well documented, something that a villain can use to counter an attack or gain an advantage on her.

Unkindness of Ravens: Though she hides it well Callie has a certain amount of uncertainty, having been a hero for less than a years. Someone playing on those insecurities could effect her efficiency in a conflict.

 

Example: Everyone Deserves A Second Chance: The character believes in everyone's better nature, even if it would be more prudent to be wary.

[KnightDisciple]

Shouldn't everything but the Motorcycle be a Device, not Equipment? Both @RocketLord and myself have built Raven III and Nevermore II in that manner, especially with the costumes and Utility Belts granting so many different things.

On another note, if Callie stays at Claremont, she can't hit PL10 until after the summer.

[Tiffany Korta]

The idea is for her stuff right now is still to be hand made and store bought, after this point she will be buying the stuff up as devices going full Batwoman on all this! And unless I'm mistaken, which to be fair I often am  , a Claremont character is limited to PL10 until graduation.

[RocketLord]

PL8 for the first year, PL9 for the second, PL10 for the last year.

 

But like @KnightDisciple said, store bought or not, all this should still be devices, especially at the ranks that some of those things are starting to get. Otherwise what's the point of buying devices, if you can get the same thing for one fifth the cost with equipment?

Edited January 7, 2022 by RocketLord

[Tiffany Korta]

We did discuss a stricter progression for Claremont but decided on a loser progression so not to limit people to much. And point taken on the equipment pushing the boundies a little, I probably need to look at the costings a little before locking thing down.

[RocketLord]

Alright, that's just how I remembered it ending up. I'm fine with whichever.

[RocketLord]

Updated build, like we chatted about.

There's a few more PP to spend for the Strike in the Gadgets array. I used the triggered and variable descriptor from Nevermore's Obscure for your Obscure effect, so you can set it up as triggered and use other obscures than just smoke.
