mindcracklove Helooo Salad-Eaters! I was wandering around Mindcracklove and was inspired by all the ideas I saw. I'm fairly knew here, even before I made an account and actually posted things for others to read. So if this idea has already been mentioned and worn-out, then just tell me, and I'll put a leash on my wild ideas.
So what would happen if the salad-eaters were SUPERHEROES?
Now, it is very easy to go overboard when creating the super side of yourself. To prevent this from happening, Here are some rules that appeared when I was thinking about it.
1- Only one superpower is bestowed upon you. No "I'm going to get EVERY power out there!" That's not fun.
2- You'll have to figure out how to coordinate your character's personality so it matches the character's superpower. Like, a person who has the ability to see how everyone is going to die when they look at them isn't going to be the most chipper person on the planet.
3- Same will go for the gadgets that they carry around. For example, a telepath isn't going to need a phone or a walkie-talkie to chat with their comrades. They'll just use their telepathy skills to talk in the other person's head.
4- Supersuits! If your character has one, then coordinate it with their superpower! Can you create fire? Make the suit orange and red! You can fly? Add a cape for a cooler effect! (If the superpower is too complicated to match a supersuit to, then feel free to skip this one. I just put it here as a challenge.)
5- Undercover. Every superhero needs a secret identity. What will yours be?
6- Remember, not every character needs to have a power. Maybe they are really good with a lot of gadgets!
When making your superhero profile, have all the categories you feel are necessary.
This is the hero I made of myself:
NAME: Nannyn
NICKNAME (If there is one): Nan
AGE: seventeen
SUPERHERO NAME: Nihilo. It comes from the Latin phrase "Creatio ex Nihilo", or "Creation out of nothing."
POWER: She is able to bend the atoms in an object to form something completely different, seemingly able to "Create something out of nothing." If she has an idea of what it'll look like, and what's inside, she can create it. It is a superpower that revolves around her hands, as they are the things that channel it. The actual process doesn't expend any of her energy, but she does need a certain level of concentration to morph something's form. This can wear her out if many people ask her to use her powers on something little, so she uses it sparingly.
SUPERHERO APPEARANCE: She wears tight-fitting black pants. She enjoys, maybe even a little too much, wearing her heeled boots that come up to her lower thigh, which are also black. She wears a very short silver v-neck tunic that hugs her body as much as the pants, showing off her reasonable amount of curves. Her iconic part of her outfit is her cropped black jacket, which the sleeves extend to fully cover her hands and fingers, giving the appearance that she shoved them in black paint. (This is to keep her hands clean. It doesn't interfere with her powers, but it's a habit that she developed.) Her hair is long, golden-brown and wavy, beginning to form actual curls at the tips. her eyes are hazel, but the nature of her powers somehow turned them into a more golden color.
UNDERCOVER APPEARANCE: she is just a normal teenager when undercover. She wears plain skinny jeans and a white v-neck shirt most of the time, but isn't afraid to mix it up and make the shirt a different, neutral color. She loves her black high-heeled ankle booties, though, and wears them every day. Her close friends in school are her superhero friends, so they share something in common any non-superhero classmate will never have or understand. Because of this, people think she doesn't want to make friends, and she is put aside as a slight outcast. She isn't fully alienated, though, because she is fairly attractive, and the boys at her school feel "Guilty." So she walks the line between popularity because of her physical appearance, and social exile because of her inability to make friends outside of her tight group of her undercover comrades.
PERSONALITY: She is laid back most of the time, usually sporting an air of indifference, sometimes even boredom. She is chock-full of witty comebacks and sarcastic comments, and is sometimes disappointed by the people around her for not understanding her dry humor. Never slip up in front of her, because she takes pride in how astute she is, and isn't afraid to use it against you. In battle, she is calm, cool, and collected. She is usually the one that'll calm everyone down. She does have her moments where she'll morph a gum wrapper into a pen to give to the school cutie, though. But no one has caught her yet, and no one ever will.
PAST: She knew, when she was able to transform her geometry textbook into the new iPhone 5, that she had either a wonderful gift, or a horrible curse. She has yet to figure out what it is. The first person that she told of her secret to was her best friend, who, in fact, had a superpower of their own. (SOMEONE MAKE A FRIEND FOR HER!)
FIGHTING STYLE: She usually isn't seen on the battle front, even is she want's to. she has to stay away from the heat of the battle to concentrate enough to forge weapons for her comrades out of things that are around her. Because of this, she usually needs at least one well-trained superhero to guard her as she works.
Is that a good idea? If it is, and you have a character of your own, then make it happen in a comment! (She still needs a friend, so get busy!)
If this idea has already been exhausted, then please tell me in the comments. And if you could direct me to where it's all happening, then I'll be super grateful!
Last comment, I promise. I have yet to come up with a way to incorporate the actual Mindcrackers into this, so feel free to do that as well!
Bye for now, Nan

Date: Monday, August 19th, 2013 01:23 am (UTC)NAME: Elfyn
NICKNAME (If there is one): Elfy
AGE: 17
SUPERHERO NAME: Wheeljack (blame Thero, apparently it's a Transformer or something)
POWER: Technokinesis (the ability to control machines) through contact with them. And, to a lesser extent, the ability to build machines, although they have a tendency to not... work.
SUPERHERO APPEARANCE: Black shirt with blue zipper and collar. Belt with various gadgets. Dark blue pants. Black fingerless gloves. Two mechanical legs, one to the ankle and the other mid-knee (they've got wheels on them like rollerskates). Dark (opaque) glasses.
UNDERCOVER APPEARANCE: Dark black jacket over blue shirt. Longer grey pants to hide her legs. Same dark glasses. She's got semi-short cut dark red hair.
PERSONALITY: Rather quiet, usually lost in thought or messing around with her equipment. When she does speak, it's usually blunt or sarcastic. Enjoys people being unable to read her expression because of her shades, which she can use as a technological interface (and doesn't take them off). Doesn't totally understand how things works, just figures it out on the fly. Somewhat awkward when people mentions her legs.
PAST: Took ice-skating and rollerblading classes when she was young, but stopped after she convinced her mother to use the money to buy a new computer instead. Lost her legs when a computer she was messing with blew up, so she made some of her own.
FIGHTING STYLE: Doesn't fight very much (she prefers to be the techie behind the information) although she's got some gadgets stashed in her belt. When she does fight, however, she uses her wheels to keep away from the opponent.

NAME: Voufreail
NICKNAME (If there is one): Voo
AGE: sixteen
SUPERHERO NAME: Voo (can make people believe that she isn't the superperson)
POWER: She is able to manipulate the mind... Some would call that mind control but she doesn't believe that is a proper term. Voo loves to flaunt her powers around wither its to convince people she's right, mess with peoples minds or get out of a sticky situation.
SUPERHERO APPEARANCE: Voo has black baggy pants kinda like a ninja but has a light gray tank top on. She normally wears a red and black stripped belt with sunglasses to hide her eyes. Under the glasses she has bright green eyes. Voo has dirty blond hair that's always in a pony tail.
UNDERCOVER APPEARANCE: She looks like a normal teen wearing baggy light gray sweats and purple high tops normally worn by skaters. She's tall slender build with long dirty blonde hair always up on the crown of her head in a bun. She normally gets accused of being related to hdbdhdgsu but she normally uses her powers to make them believe that she isn't to hide her identity.
PERSONALITY: She is quite loud mouthed and energetic, with a sense of humor. Voo normally is in school and is one of the loudest people in the hall ways. She gets into a lot of loving arguments (that she normally wins thanks to her powers) Voo loves to go out on the city, cause problems and watch people run in circles trying to fix it. Voo is a trouble maker, she loved to cause trouble wherever she goes. She could be called a villain, but she doesn't wish pain or suffering upon anyone just utter confusion and other things that makes her laugh.
PAST: She had know for about five years, ever since she was talking to a good friend of hers that repeated things she had thought. It freaked her out and she went and found out why the friend was doing that. Ever since she found out she decided to learn how to fight just in case she ever needed to.
FIGHTING STYLE: She usually is on the front of the lines fight and laughing. She doesn't normally use her powers unless they can be used to help her get an advantage. She loves the trill of the battle, so she attempts to provoke problems in anyway she can. She always uses mind games on her victims before she gets into hand to hand combat.

Date: Thursday, August 22nd, 2013 06:58 pm (UTC)NAME: Mew
NICKNAME: N/A
AGE: 14
SUPERHERO NAME: Blade. Comes from her weapon usage, a sword.
POWER: Super Speed. If she needs to get somewhere ten miles away, she can make it in five minutes and still fight. However, it really pushes the limits of her stamina. After extended use, she might not be able to use her power for a few days, depending on how severe the drain is.
SUPERHERO APPEARANCE: Blade wears silver leggings, down to the knee, white athletic running shoes, an olive green v-neck form fitting t-shirt, blue jean short shorts, a long white scarf and fingerless gloves with rubber grips. Her long black hair is tied up in a ponytail.
UNDERCOVER APPEARANCE: As a young high schooler, Mew wears dark blue skinny jeans, sandals, a dark blue t-shirt, and a black jacket. Her waist long hair is always straight, and never seems to tangle. She always seems to beat everyone to the classroom, even if she was the last to get out of the previous class...
PERSONALITY: As a student, she is meek and shy. However, she's not hesitant to stand up for herself or others, and that's the only time she really comes out of her turtle shell.Otherwise, she's extremely introverted, and hard to make friends with. But as a superhero, Blade is very upbeat and cheerful. Her attention flits from one thing to another, and she talks extremely fast. She does this intentionally, to widen the split between the two personalities.
PAST: When she found out her best friend could turn gum wrappers into phones and rocks into candy, she was pleased. Now, they both had a secret to keep and share. (I'LL BE YOUR FRIEND! :D)
FIGHTING STYLE: On the front lines. She either fights, or delivers supplies to the fighters. Even so, she'll pause for a slash, and dart away to continue her given duty.
