Character Creation 101
Source of inspiration: Green Lantern, lol
Dimensionality
WHY: To fight against his evil former king, Glucknar and free his brothers from the villain's clutches. To right the wrongs he himself committed throughout the universe. To honour the memory of his adopted parents.
WHAT: One of the many nameless drones of Glucknar, an alien dictator who does not allow the rest of his kind the luxury of names. Glucknarns have a high durability and great natural strength. Upon death, Glucknarns reproduce by cloning themselves. The clone is vulnerable during the early stages but soon matures and regains all memories of its previous life Killing a Glucknarn in the early stages is the only way to permanently end the creature.
WHO: After being killed by Glucknar in a rage, the clone of the Glucknarn who would become Ignar was tossed into space. Luckily, it was found by a couple, both members of the Green Lantern Corps. They raised the infant clone as their own child, well aware of where it came from, naming it Ignar Ungluck in defiance of Glucknar. When Ignar matured and regained his memories, it was a difficult time, but through his 'parents' help he was able to overcome this and joined the Green Lantern Corps, rising through the ranks to become one of the top Lanterns in the Corps.
WHERE: Ignar does not patrol any specific Space Sector anymore and is usually assigned to the most difficult jobs or to assist new recruits.
WHEN: In the present, though in his previous life Ignar lived for approximately one million Earth years.
HOW: Raised by two Green Lanterns, when Ignar was old enough he was granted his own ring and joined the Corps.
WOOT! ^___^
@spideybat: thx urs is good too.
" @Icarusflies: do u have any suggestions? "Grammar Nazi senses...overwhelmed.....why must you torment the English language so badly?
" @Der Kommandant: lol i type fast and im not the greatest typist, i just got my cpu turned back on so i havent been using a keyboard, and its the internet who cares if its bad grammar as long as you get what im saying. sohop off my back about it no offense. "You don't seem to understand the concept of Internet humor. T_T
As for suggestions:
Have some of your power locked away in some sort of power item...from your avatar, I would recommend a flute.
Have your wings removed
There's always the 'strive for redemption' card.
Want to become a human
I have more, but that's a good start.
I personally loathe that plot card, people who have power almost never want to relinquish it. And the Flute thing sounds an awful lot like Sauron's ring." @Forgotten Angel: Actually, people won't take you as seriously if you don't use proper grammar... As for suggestions: Have some of your power locked away in some sort of power item...from your avatar, I would recommend a flute. Have your wings removed There's always the 'strive for redemption' card. Want to become a human I have more, but that's a good start. "
As for the flute? There is a long history of powers being placed in objects. You have Pandora's box, Morpheus' gems, etc.
" Anyone know of a good name for an earth-bender/death-associated, good-ish/neutral character? "Obsidian- It is a rock which satisfies the earth bender part, it's black which satisfies the death association, and the goodish/neutral thing is also satisfied by the black.
I'm sure that's never happened to you before either...:P
probably should have read this before making my character but my attention span is to low to read all of it
Great Stuff Portait
Someone should do this for creating a team and link it here and the training thread.
Right then I need to make Lime Green a more serious character somehow. Hmm....I need a new origin story, what's a good excuse for why someone would be completely Lime Green and insane?
" @Decoy Elite: Well, they COULD be completely insane and paint themselves Lime Green because they thought the color made them invisible to government/aliens/robots/zombies. "Sadly that wouldn't work because being Lime Green(and super strong) is his power. His strange coloring makes him hard to see without hurting ones eyes and thus attacks against him tend to be off target.
" @Decoy Elite: He developed a rare skin condition which slowly eats away at him, covering his skin in a film of lime green fungi, but also hypertrophying his muscles. "Nice! Sounds a lot better than his current origins(a parody of Joker's). Thanks for the help. :D
