Miyanokouji's Characters

[Miyanokouji]

For the sake of knowing who Al was, Al was a half-cat created prior to Kuki who was killed by Kuki in a duel on her airship. ALs were genetic experiments created by a laboratory some way off the south-east coast of New Zealand which has been destroyed in recent times. Many of them still exist and are doing their best to live as regular humans on Earth.


Kuki Nusumi

Name: Kuki Nusumi (Thanks Shaon )
Age: Unknown as of yet
Height: 6'1"
Sex: Female
Species: Half-cat (as a result of genetic experiments.)
Alighnment: Kuki seeks only to further her own knowledge and interests. I assume this would be "neutral". She also seeks to do so via all means necessary, so I would say "chaotic", too.
Appearance: Kuki tends to wear simple combat clothing, giving her virtually no protection from sharp, pointy things, or large, blunt things. In short, she tends to wear black trousers and a black vest-style top. This allows her uninhibited movement.

Personality: Very calm, calculating. She prefers words to action but when necessary she will attack, and with great precision. She speaks in a quiet, low voice, even when angered. Loud people get on her nerves, and she likes to use her razor sharp wit to cut their egos in two.


Hobbies, Abilities, and History: Just go read WWC Stage 2 please, in the Amphitheatre. That contains all the history you need. After the events in When Worlds Collide, she was rejected entry into the EC due to her killing a previous member, and escaped with her life from the Corrupted Cave.

As for abilities, she's able to run fast, jump (very) high (about 6-8 metres), and has great steadiness and accuracy with firearms. She is also skilled with swords.
Most of the time she carries one of Al's pistols which she stole from him after killing him, and a shortsword forged by one of her many AL-friends.

Kuki also owns the Plexus, a gigantic airship (only just smaller than Raven and Panther's bedroom!), whose specifications will be listed in a post below.

Q: "HEY WAIT YOU B- WHAT DID YOU DO WITH EVILMONKEYINC."

A: He died. Fossilised in a jar of treacle. Rumour has it that if you manage to find the fossil, you can see the french swear words coming out of his mouth. Good luck with THAT expedition, you crazy!

R.O.S.E.

Name: R.O.S.E. (Responsive Offensive Sentient Emulation)
Name shortened to Rose for ease of speech and speed.
D.o.B. : 13th June 2006
Sex: Defined as female though it really doesn't make much difference.
Hobbies: Growing flowers, watching paint dry. (Time is of no consequence to ROSE, and it looks very interesting on a molecular level, apparently)

Personality: Calm and collected. She has a good understanding of wit and sarcasm, and can tell intonation with ease. As such she is good at conversing with humans and others with such concepts. She knows she will always be right, given the information she has processed (within a certain margin of error, which she can calculate) For instance, she could fire a single bullet at a balloon and hit it exactly where she was aiming for, as she would have calculated a trajectory based on her speed, the speed of the balloon, wind speed, etc, however if there was a change of wind speed milliseconds before, the bullet could easily go off-target. You get the idea, though it shouldn't boil down to tiny details in real situations.


Description & History: R.O.S.E. is basically a red pair of square-based pyramids joined base-to-base (which I have been informed is an octahedron), with small holes in the corners and edges, which Al (now deceased) built and coded. Except when she is off, one of the shape's points would be pointing to the ground. When she is deactivated, the cover of one side folds down to create a sort of tapered trapezoidal prism. This is to keep her supported while deactivated. The edges are all black, but when she is activated, the edges glow a pale orange.
Shortly after Kuki was rejected entry into the Evil Council, ROSE disappeared from the Corrupted Cave, leaving a printed note saying that she was leaving due to having no reason to stay, and wanting to follow Kuki around the globe.
Since then Rose has been onboard the Plexus, travelling with Kuki. She has formed a strong relationship with Kuki and is in fact one of Kuki's most trusted staff.

Additionally, I apologise for my earlier error in calling her a cube. I was imagining an octahedron all the time. Which probably confused you.

Abilities:

Movement

Legs - Rose can protrude flexible legs from four holes at once to stand on. (three while standing diagonally, four while standing straight. She is able

Flight - Rose can protrude a few jet boosters from the holes on the corners, and use them to fly about.

---------------------------
Networking

Probe - Rose can protrude an electronic cable of various specifications from one of the holes on the edges. Currently she has support for USB, FireWire, Ethernet, and two types made by Al.

Wireless networking - Rose can connect to any wireless network or device that uses wireless network standards 802.11b or 802.11g. She can crack WEP and WPA keys to gain access to the networks. She is also able to connect to any bluetooth networks or devices, and is visible as a computer on them.

---------------------------
Interaction with the environment
Claw - Rose can protrude a leg with a claw on the end from the hole of the corner facing away from the ground while standing. This claw is linked to a small storage container, so as long as the object she is carrying is small, she is able to store it inside herself. This only really functions to save it from falling out of the claw, as someone could create a hole to it with relative ease.

Hologram display - Rose can display anything on her hologram display, from websites to pictures, videos, and other things. The hologram displays from whichever corner is at the top.

---------------------------
Weaponry
Chaingun - Rose can protrude a small chain gun from the point facing the ground while flying or standing on legs. The bulets are able to penetrate things with ease, however their tiny scale disables them from causing much damage.

Bomb - Rose can drop a tiny sticky bomb from the corner facing the ground, or attach it to a wall. The blast radius is tiny, but very powerful. It can melt hinges and locks, etc.

---------------------------
Defences
Cloaking - Rose can turn invisible. Her cloaking engine is susceptible to damage, as it is close to one of ROSE's edges. A fall onto this edge would easily break the cloaking engine.

---------------------------
Additional
Speakers - Rose has two speakers on two adjacent faces that are used for real sounds, like music. She has a third ultra-thin speaker in one of her edges that she uses to talk with.

Microscope - Rose is able to view things close by at great magnification by protruding a microscope and small light from two of her corners. This leaves just four, used for standing or flying.

Nanobots - Rose is able to produce nanobots to assist with repairing or upgrading her circuitry and mechanics. However, nanobots will only function correctly while she is motionless. If she is jolted at all the nanobots will cease whatever they were doing and encase themselves in a jelly-like substance in order to cause no damage to Rose. The nanobots use a particularly interesting force to remain active without requiring any form of energy input. (which actually does exist in the real world. It produces a tiny amount of energy, but I'm bending it for the non-real to produce a larger than tiny force so as to keep a nanobot powered, although RL scientists are hopeful.)

---------------------------

Power
ROSE runs on electricity, and as such is able to recharge via standard american and european adapters, as well as through solar panels hidden beneath her covers. (To do this, she would deactivate and then open the two covers facing upwards, revealing the panels).

The Plexus

The Plexus is a heavily-modified cruise ship capable of moving both through water and through the air. It has two different forms, one as a cruise ship and the other as an airship. It is able to store roughly 2,000 passengers for two to three weeks. Kuki uses this a nice way of getting money. The Plexus carries a staff of fifteen half-cats, all models created before herself. This is for two reasons, the first being that, should the need arise, she would be able to despatch them all, the second is that the lab was destroyed soon after she left, and there are just a few AL~X3s in the world.

When in flight mode, the Plexus is a black main body with large circular propellors held above it. It is roughly twice as long as it is wide. There is a cockpit at the very top of the main body, with a windshield with a retractable cover.
It has a cargo bay in the middle of the body, roughly the size of two layers of four double-decker buses joined side-to-side.

The Plexus currently has no weaponry. It relies on its great speed and ability to disguise itself as a cruise ship so as not to be destroyed.

It runs one engine for every propeller, each engine contained in a corner of the body. It also has a portion of an Interdimensional Ice-Cream Truck's engine inside, allowing it to travel trans-dimensionally.

It has a large electromagnet suitable for picking up large objects such as cars and people's garden sheds (though this hasn't yet been done for any reason other than target practice, and it was Kuki's shed.), and also has a claw about the size of an average human that can be used for various things.

It has four legs with joints in the middle, which can be rotated to angles of up to 90 degrees from straight downwards. This allows it to park on uneven sufaces, and in between things.

Lastly, it has 3 main exits in flight mode. The cargo bay door in the bottom, a deployable rope-ladder (though it's not actually made from rope, it's made from a much stronger polymer) leading down from the area below the cockpit, and a large door that comes down from the rear of the craft and leads to the cargo bay.

NB: Please yell at me VERY LOUDLY if you are confused about any bits of my profile. (I can't really describe the way things look, unfortunately, so don't yell if you don't know how the Plexus looks. If you want I can make pictures of ROSE though)

[Miyanokouji]

The Plexus is manned by a staff of 15.

2 of these are builders/mechanics.
2 are mercenaries.
One is a medic.
Two are electricians.
Two are cooks.
One is a pilot.

The rest are currently unknown.

Essentially, they obey virtually every command Kuki gives them, as they have nowhere else to go yet. If they wish to leave her ship, Kuki will allow them to do so without any issues. For this reason it is likely that the crew will decrease over time.

They will in general only be used on-board the Plexus and will only be involved in background tasks such as ship maintenance. The mercenaries may come off the ship as an aid to Kuki, and the builders will help people rebuild their houses if Kuki, the pilot, or Rose, manage to destroy them partially or greater.


For those so interested, the Mary Sue ratings of my characters are as follows.

Kuki - 25
Rose - 8
The Plexus - Anywhere between 2 - 12 (Due to its incredible speed and ability to transform into a cruise ship. On the other hand having no brain makes a lot of things harder to answer, so it could be anywhere within that range)

How Samuel Waltz Found His Apathy -OR- How Yet Another God Came To Blackstar -OR- How Britain's Air Force Lost A Plane Without Sending It Into Battle

Wing Commander Samuel Waltz is an overly confident biplane pilot.
He commands an air force unit in Britain. He is vain, and lazy.
He believes himself to be the greatest man in the world.

One morning, at approximately 6:30AM GMT, his squadron took off,
for a training excercise for World War I, expected to take
around 30 minutes to complete.

Samuel Waltz was at the front of his squadron, banking around to
his first target. His squadron never saw him again, for in that instant,
a collosal flash of light appeared, and swallowed Samuel and his
biplane whole.



Retinentis, the God of Intelligence, died in 1997. He became the God
of Intelligence soon after. He hated existence like no-one else ever had,
and as such wished to find a super-weapon to use against everything.
One of the powers inherent in being the God of Intelligence is that he
is able to know everything, simply by wanting to know it. He wanted to know
where he could find such a super weapon. Far less than a moment after, he knew
he had to go to Blackstar.

He transported himself through several dimensions to reach the Dojo. It took around
three minutes. Just long enough to pick up stray objects from the dimensions he visited.
On his way through the dimensions, he visited an airfield during the late 1930s.
It was around 6:35AM.




"Blimey!" Waltz exclaimed, "What the hell was that? Chaps, report your status!"
His radio sounded static, so he cried through the microphone again, "Squadron!
Where are you? Report your status!" The radio stayed silent. Samuel Waltz
decided to focus on finding somewhere to land, as it had just begun to rain.
"Sand!? Why the hell is it raining sand!? Squadron, report! If you can see me,
where am I? Chaps?" The radio remaind quiet, silently mocking him.
A vast woodland stood beneath him, with a large black thing with propellors
flying above it at considerable speed. He decided that that would be the only
place for miles around to land. As he began to bank towards it, he found out
that he had failed to notice a giant invisible tower just below and to his left.
His lower left wing crashed into the top of tower, and the plane spun round and
swung over on the tower roof to its right side, crushing the lower wing on that
side. The plane tipped further, and came to a halt on its upper right wing,
barely 10 metres away from the edge of the tower roof, which sounds more epic
than it actually was.

Commander Waltz looked over the edge of his cockpit, and saw that the black
thing he had seen was nowhere to be found. He then realised that he was
apparently floating in midair without any reasonable cause.
"It's just one thing after the other, eh, chaps?", he said over the radio.
"Chaps?"
He looked back over the edge of the cockpit. He was on top of a boring-coloured
roof. Above him the sky was grey, and extended out for a way, but in the distance
it was a day with good weather. Except for the sand-rain.
He decided that as his plane was just a little useless, that he would get out of
the plane.

Surveying the scenery, he concluded that he was very high up in the air. He went back
to his plane and got the transmitter. He had forgotten that he was in a training excercise
before he had been warped away from Earth.
"Okay chaps, it looks like I'm in some kind of Jerry trap. Good luck with the war. I'm going
to top myself so they can't use me against us. Tally-ho."
He walked off the edge of the tower he was on. And fell. Slowly. He kept falling for half a
minute or more. He only dropped about thirty metres or so in the end. Gravity was being very
apathetic.
He landed on the main body of the Somewhat Bland Tower That Floats, the Power Apathy Party's
building.

Naine had watched the pilot falling, and rushed out of the door to one of the towers,
crashing to the ground in front of the pilot. Although he didn't care who the person was,
he did want them to go away.
"What are you doing here!?" Naine screeched at the pilot.
"...Well a moment ago I was doing my utmost to kill myself. Lady luck it seems has decided
I will not die today, and now I simply don't feel like it, heh-heh-heh," Waltz bore his
giant buck-teeth at the dolphin in a tank, then realised he was talking to a dolphin in a
tank, and asked Naine, "Are you a dolphin in a tank?"
Naine responded, "Yes. I don't care who you are though."
"Well, top show old man-"
"Dolphin"
"I don't care."
This prompted Naine to reason differently.
"Would you like to join our party?"
"What party? You'd better not be Jerries, or I'll...Do nothing, I suppose."
"We're the Power Apathy Party?"
"Sorry, I wasn't listening, the Hour Pity Party?"
"No, the Power Apathy Party. A group of apathetic people not caring about what's going on."
"I don't really care."
"Then you're in."
