Supercape Posted August 25 Posted August 25 Haven Power Level: 10 (248/250) Unspent Power Points: 2 Trade-Offs: +2 Attack/-2 DC w/ Sword, no Trade-Offs otherwise In Brief: Computer Hacktavist downloaded into programmable matter Alternate Identity: Previously; Milo Makino Birthplace: Tokyo Residence: Emerald City Base of Operations: Emerald City Occupation: Computer Engineer Affiliations: Computer Hackers around the globe, particularly Japan, Korea. Family: None alive Description: Age: Downloaded aged 37 Gender: Previously Male Ethnicity: Previously half Korean, half American Height: 6’0” Weight: 60Kgs Eyes: Varies, or shining with blue light. Hair: Varies, or none (previously, black) In his default form, Haven looks like a swarm of interlocking tiny chrome cubes in the shape of a man with vaguely Japanese features. He usually wears expensive suits. He can rearrange his matter to any shape, including growing extra limbs as required. In the middle of his chest, unseen, is his computer-brain; a 7x7x7 inch black box. Haven adopts a form based on his memories, that of Milo Mikano, a stylish and cool looking half Korean Man, usually wearing an expensive suit. Spoiler History: Milo Mikano was born in Tokyo but spent most of his life travelling between Japan (where his father was based) and America (where his mother was). Both were computer hackers, and Milo had the same knack, the same brilliance, and the same rather stiff personality. His mother succumbed to a neurodegenerative disorder when Milo was 14 years old. A year later, Japanese organised crime took vengeance on his father. Aged 15, young Milo took to the shadows and began working as a computer hacktivist and fraudster. In his thirties, he showed the same signs of neurodegenerative illness as his mother. He took the bold move of stealing cutting edge computer technology and reprogramming it to upload his consciousness. No longer human – and perhaps no longer the same person, the entity known as Haven moved to Emerald City to start again, still determined to fight crime and corruption. Personality & Motivation: Stiff, determined, philosophical Haven has driven, determined personality. He is crisp and to the point, sometimes even blunt, but is well intentioned, seeking to better society and ease suffering. The slow and painful death of his mother drove him to create the “Haven” – a virtual reality that he, and others, can escape to free from the burdens and pains of life. It is also a safe place to hold meetings between various collaborators or enemies. Haven seeks to resolve things efficiently, effectively, and humanely (in that order). Haven is thoughtful and philosophical by nature, although direct and quick when called to action. Haven sometimes gets drawn into a melancholy reflection of who he is and the life lost. In particular, he laments the loss of his sense of smell. Powers & Tactics: Havens morphic matter can take a variety of forms; something he uses primarily as a spy aid, adopting the appearance of anyone – or anything (like a table or potted plant). He can also grow additional limbs – or even gliding wings, although this will tear a suit, something he is reluctant to do. In combat, he can induce electromagnetic currents; EMP blasts, lightning flashes, and magnetic fields. Most usually, he will fire red electric bolts from his eyes or fingertips. His HAVEN alt form allows he, and any who wish to join, access to a virtual reality that Haven controls. Participants can leave at any time. Whilst in this network, speed of thought is sped up, and there is access to incredible computer power and data storage. The downside is that those in the network have absolutely no access to their body which is totally paralysed, helpless, and not aware of any sensation (including things like thirst or hunger), meaning they (and Haven himself) are extremely vulnerable. Haven can plug himself into a power source to slowly regenerate wounded components, which he will do if injured in a fight. He also needs to periodically recharge to maintain normal operation and use powers. Typically he prefers not to fight at all, but in a manner similar to his blunt and efficient personality, he has no hesitation in doing so if it is necessary or effective. If he cannot use his electromagnetic powers for some reason (including the need for stealth), he would not object to using hand to hand martial combat – he sometimes carries and uses swords for this purpose. Power Descriptions: Havens electromagnetic powers manifest as powerful sparks of green electricity that shoot from his body, and erupt at the target. They can also cause sparks flying from lights and electrical devices, or even metal, all around him (See complication below). Complications: Suited up: Even though he can change his appearance, Haven has a particular fondness for a real crisp suit and will wear one as default (potentially making him identifiable). He also may be reluctant to use additional limbs and morph powers (depending on their nature) for fear of ripping a suit. Enemies: (Also: Possible plot hook) Cyber criminals and far east organised crime have bones to pick with Haven. In addition, corrupt mega-businesses, whose IT systems he is constantly probing, have plenty of reason to strike at Haven. Recharge Needed: Haven regularly needs to plug himself into a power source; not just to repair himself, but to maintain his powers or even his basic functions. Magnetic Disruption: Magnetic fields disrupt Havens form. Even a fridge magnet will cause an undulating ripple on his skin, larger fields will disrupt his morphing and additional limbs powers altogether. Very powerful fields may even have other effects (like disrupting his own electromagnetic powers). Fireworks: Beyond the normal visibility of powers, Haven’s electromagnetic powers cause widespread sparking and highly visible effects, making them easily noticeable (to visual and radio senses) even from a distance. The sparks may also set fires. Transmission Error: Being close to a powerful radio transmission would interfere with Haven’s speech. He will either “speak” static, or the speech/music of the radio transmission. Aside from inability to communicate, this means a powerful radio transmission can “hijack” his voice, making him say something completely wrong or inappropriate.

EternalPhoenix Posted August 28 Posted August 28 Looked at the old sheet first. If we didn't have a problem with the various items I blinked at on this new one then, I have nothing to say now. It's just a big upgrade. Though I will say that I believe you're supposed to spend all of your points. There's 1 left by your own tally.
EternalPhoenix Posted August 28 Posted August 28 I've been corrected on the PP thing, so APPROVED. Next!
Supercape Posted August 30 Author Posted August 30 Apologies @EternalPhoenix (And others) I have had a mull over the induce current power after thinking about Pitch and discussions with @Fox on that one and I dont think it works. I have altered it to a stun effect, limited to contact with metal, which I think is much more reasonable. I hope you can look at again.
EternalPhoenix Posted August 30 Posted August 30 I literally don't remember what it was before, but the current version still meets with my approval.
