Admantium? That'd work...quick question, does a boombox/other other speaker-like object playing music count as an instrument? Because otherwise, the only thing Thumpman can really do is run over the robots with his Escalade...

And pimples changing into Gundams? That'd rule! j/k...

A familiar heavy metal tune fills the air...

*Cue someone getting hurt very badly*

Truce · 02-23-2004, 08:07 PM

IHMN-Good excuse. Henceforth, that is the official reason.

Boombox-Yes, I will count those as instruments. Basically anything that is specifically purpose is with music making/playing. Able to transform into weapons (which are of course for combat) lessens the strength when faced against the robots.

I tried to stay away. I really tried. But this is way too much fun to stay out of.

Title:WeiBer Rabe (White Raven in german) actually Mike Smith
Age: 23
Eyes: green
Hairstlye: Long straight bleached hair, it used to be black and that can be seen just at the roots. It's tied back.
Skin: A slightly pale pallor due to his tendency to only come out at night.
Outfit: Constantly wearing lightly tinted sunglasses and a long leather trench coat. He usually wears odd shades of grayish green or grayish blue shirts with a saying in oriental script. He always wears an small silver egytian cartouche around his neck with his name written out in egyptian on it. He wears black pants with a multitude of small chains from which hang various small, silver, religious symbols (crucifixes, ying yangs, chinese dragons, zodiac symbols, etc.).
Insturment: Eight string bass (yes they exist and the sound is awesome!) w/ built in ampage (something I made up) The appearence is akin to a thunderbird but with a series of silver streaks across it.
Genre: Heavy Metal & Alternative Rock w/ a dash of classical and techno mixed in
Bling Bling: (despises nearly all pop, hip hop, and rap and as such goes out of the way to avoid the lingo) His multitudes of silver relics, A guitar case that is designed to sling over the back and has the viasge of a completely white raven emblazoned on either side of the case, a pair of black steel kama's which are hidden somewhere within the folds of his trenchcoat (he's paranoid), and a hoverboard (they're working on prototypes now and safety is the major issue that they're figuring out so I'm not THAT far ahead of the times.)

BTM: Mike grew up as a social outcast. He was never very good at much, in school he was a mediocre student and despite his athletic build he never stayed with anything long enough to become really good at it.... That is until he found the bass. It was as if he had been preordained to play this insturment and combined with his singing ability and talent in writing he quickly began searching for a band so that he could start spreading his ideas and songs to the world. Currently however he is stuck as a solo artist and hopes to gain members for a band before the battle if at all possible. He's prepared to go on solo though if all else fails.
Scandals: He breifly disappeared into the underbelly of the crime world in order to pay for food, rent, etc. He did a few random robberies which swiftly earned him enemies. Currently he is running from a gang which he upset, this plays a large part in his dislike of gangsters.
Personality: Sort of a dark and brooding type that is constantly in contemplation. He believe in the blending of religions and such, seeing as they all are derived from the same central ideas. He doesn't open up as easily as some but is a steadfast friend to those that earn his trust.

Why is it that you always seem to pop up in every RP I join?

Rhuhael · 02-23-2004, 08:36 PM

It is because you have immaculate taste my friend. Great minds think alike to an extent. It has been proven time and time again. Einstein used to quote Aristotle you know

Translation: We cool.

lazy man · 02-23-2004, 08:42 PM

Well, we are disturbingly the same O_o........but then again, everyone I seem to meet and think is cool happens to be just like me in some way(i.e. Minor Dizaster). Oh well, so goes the ways of social life.

Title: Haruhara Haruko (Real Name: Raharu Haruha)
Age: 19
Eyes: Golden
Hairstyle: Shoulder length, unruly, and pink.
Skin: Very very pale. Almost white.
Outfit: She wears a pair of tight black pants, knee-high white boots, a red vest that's either pleather or real leather which comes down to just under her waist over a white shirt, a pair of red leather gloves, and she also often wears a biking helmet with goggles, that are worn over her eyes when driving her Vespa, or are, more commonly, pushed up onto her helmet when she's not.
Instrument: Rickenbacker Bass Guitar... which happens to be gas powered with a pull cord.
Genre: Rock & Roll
Bling Bling: She has a yellow vespa which moves unusually fast for a vehicle of it's making, and an iron shackle on her wrist, which has one chain link connected to it. The link sometimes vibrates and points to a direction...
BTM: Haruhara Haruko is an alien... or at least that's what she claims. No one is really sure, just like no one is really sure where she comes from or where she got her guitar. All anyone really knows is that she is not a normal girl, and moreover that she's VERY selfish.. For her part, she came to the contest because her shackle told her that the pirate king, Atmosk, might just make an appearance.
Scandals: She picks her nose with her pinky finger.

Rhuhael · 02-23-2004, 09:23 PM
