Rʜʏꜱ, Tʜᴇ Cᴏᴍᴘᴀɴʏ Mᴀɴ

➳name; Rhys
➳age; 27
➳gender; Male
➳sexuality; Bisexual
➳crush; None
➳species; Human
➳fandom; Tales From the Borderlands

➳hair; brown
➳eyes; right eye is hazel, left eye is blue
➳skin tone; Pale, he has a neck tattoo of three black circles.
➳height; 5'10
➳weight; 175 (metal arm is quite heavy)

➳abilities / powers; One of his arms is made of metal, and the palm of his hand holds technology that doubles as a communicator and a flashlight. Rhys also has an ECHO eye implant, which allows him to scan things for information- if they are in the Hyperion database. The implant also includes a data port on his left temple, which he can plug certain information technologies into, and connect to networks with.

➳weapons; A stun rod that shocks people and knocks them back. He can throw a decent punch with his metal arm, but not so much his real arm.

➳personality; Rhys acts tough and cocky but he is very much a nerd if you're around him long enough. He's ambitious and willing to backstab a few people to get a promotion. However, he still has a good heart and loves to crack jokes. Rhys can be a little dense about certain things, and is generally not that great at making himself seem threatening, as he gets stuck and stutters when he makes threats.

➳history; Being inspired by Handsome Jack, Rhys had spent years climbing up the corporate ladder of Hyperion- a large weapons and technology company based on a ship named Helios orbiting the planet Pandora. He'd been sucking up to his boss to get a very big promotion, but when he was supposed to get promoted his boss was thrown out of an airlock by his new boss and his rival, Vasquez, who proceeded to demote Rhys to Assistant Vice Janitor. Of course Rhys was quite angry, and he wanted revenge since Vasquez took away something he'd worked hard for. In his office, Rhys overhead Vasquez was making a deal on Pandora to buy a Vault key- a key that led to invaluable riches somewhere on the planet. Along with his friend Vaughn, Rhys decided to go down to Pandora and steal Vasquez's deal out from under him, as well as steal Vasquez's car, and the 10 million dollars to buy the key.
Pandora is an extremely dangerous and deadly planet. It is covered in bandits, wild beasts, and those who spend their lives searching for the riches of a vault- Vault hunters. Almost everyone on Pandora would do anything to find a vault, which draws plenty of unwanted attention to Rhys's little deal. On Pandora, people especially hate those who work at Hyperion due to the company's charming but genocidal previous owner, Handsome Jack, who caused mass deaths and multiple wars on the planet.
The deal went very bad. Since the vault key turned out to be a fake and the money was stolen by bandits, Rhys formed a temporary alliance with the duo of con artists who made the fake key in order to get the money back. In attempt to help track the money, Rhys plugged in an ID data card he nabbed off an old Hyperion Scientist to inconspicuously gain access to Hyperion data that he was no longer allowed to see. However, this data card held something very bad that had now been uploaded into Rhys's head- a walking and talking hologram version of Handsome Jack that only he could see. The money ended up getting destroyed, but they found something much better than that case of 10 million dollars. The group picked up the trail of a real vault.

➳other; A little about Rhys having Handsome Jack in his head. Since Jack can't interact with anyone besides Rhys, I'm not really going to be making a form for him and just sometimes have him and Rhys interacting in posts. Jack kinda comes and goes, bothering and annoying Rhys, but occasionally offering him help when he needs it. Also sometimes if he wants to, Jack can briefly take control of Rhys's metal arm. To all other characters, if Rhys is talking to or interacting with Jack he'll just seem like he's talking to no one or just acting very strange. If this isn't okay or you think it'll be too confusing I can exclude the whole handsome jack thing if you want me to!

name; beatrice abigail ivers
nicknames; bea
gender; female
age; seventeen
species; skinwalker - red boxer
sexuality; bisexual
face claim; alexis ren

hey! meet beatrice abigail ivers, also known as "bea". she's a low-ranking skinwalker without a pack, she is seventeen years old. she is bisexual. as a skinwalker, she is capable of shapeshifting - her "go-to" form being a red boxer. she works on the police force as a dog, though, so she would rarely take her human form while working. despite skinwalkers being seen as monsters and malicious, beatrice makes an attempt to not be as animalistic as others, only killing for food or when necessary - at these times she targets those who she believes deserve it. a notable trait of beatrice would be her quick-wit and sarcastic comments; she's not against teasing people as long as she feels comfortable around them and they feel the same. she has the tendency to dislike confrontation about her being a skinwalker, often neglecting to mention that altogether if she gets the chance. beatrice strongly believes in "you get what you give" meaning she is friendly to those who are friendly back, this also applying to hostility and rudeness. she is loyal to friends, and has the tendency to be overprotective due to past events where she has lost people and placed the blame upon herself more than anything else, this being a key flaw of hers as she tends to disregard her safety for the safety of others.

skin; fair
hair; blonde
eyes; brown
height; 5'7 / 170 cm
weight; 8.5 st / 119 lb
dog height; 1'11 / 58 cm
dog weight; 4 st / 55 lb
dog fur; red/ginger body, white chest, neck and chin, black muzzle and ears

being a skinwalker, beatrice has a range of abilities, the main being the fact she can shapeshift, she also has heightened senses. it should also be noted that, while in her other forms, she has enhanced strength whereas she is not particularly powerful in her human form - relying more on her agility than her strength. as a skinwalker she has near invulnerability, the one way to kill her being by silver through the head and/or heart, however, she is still able to be harmed just as a person could be - although she shows signs of accelerated healing.

powers; enhanced strength, accelerated healing, near invulnerability, heightened senses, shape-shifting, voice mimicry
weaknesses; silver, scent misdirection (due to hightened senses), white ash

➳name; Bow
➳age; around 17
➳gender; male
➳sexuality; pansexual
➳crush; none
➳species; the only one who's not a princess technically unknown
➳fandom; She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

➳hair; brown/purple
➳eyes; black
➳skin tone; brown

➳abilities / powers; Bow is a master archer and pretty tech savvy, armed with a variety of trick arrows. He is also fairly adept at hand to hand combat.
➳weapons; A collabsible bow and the aformentioned arrows.

➳personality; Known as the heart of his group, Bow's unending loyalty towards his friends, and constant concern for their safety, makes him one of the best companions you could ever have. His ability to motivate others when all hope seems lost is possibly one of his most prominent characteristics, and it's extremely useful to the Rebellion, considering how many hopeless moments they have encountered. He has a profound sense of morality, which drives him and he will firmly stand for what he believes in, and will happily throw himself into the fray, if he believes the cause justifies the need to fight, though he prefers to avoid confrontations, if he can.
Bow is quite sociable and eager to make new friends, though he does remain cautious around some individuals, particularly those who he may not have had... 'good' encounters with previously, but he will always remain polite and willing to talk things out, in order to come to an agreement.

➳other; He can play the violin and is a member of the Etherian Maker's Community. CROP TOPS

[guar]

name; scorpia
age; twenty
gender; female
sexuality; bisexual
species; unknown. human-scorpion hybrid

"kitty! just so you know, i'm a hugger."

personality; gregarious, enthusiastic, excitable, scorpia is a cheerful and social woman, always happy to tal
k to anyone, unfortunately she also has the tendency to be oblivious and clumsy and will often forget hersel
f, and her sheer size and strength, when she is interacting with other people. it is also clear that she cares li
ttle for personal space, often picking up catra despite catra showing her adversion to this countless times. sc
orpia is always eager to please anybody, taking pride in her knowledge of being a force captain and willingly
following and going along with plans given to her, making her character perfect for being a horde minion. unf
ortunately, this princess is not without her insecurities which are preyed on by others, such as catra. she is p
ainfully aware of the fact that "ah i never really fit with the other princesses" it is obvious that, although sh
e is deathly loyal to the horde, scorpia has got a kind, pure heart deep down, shown by her childish actions (s
uch as drawing herself, catra and entrapta as best friends/stick figures) and excitable, optimistic attitude.

"i make them uncomfortable. they don't like that. they don't like me."

abilities; scorpia displays a massive amount of strength, able to lift up and cast aside people with ease.
weapons; scorpia has pincers in place for hands and a prehensile tail similar to a scorpion's, this can inject v
enom that will paralyse any enemies it comes in contact with for a small amount of time.

"i call us the super pal trio!"

fandom; she-ra and the princesses of power (reboot)
other; a truly good girl, deserves the best. voice here

➳name; Qrow ('Crow') Branwen
➳age; somewhere in his 40s
➳gender; male
➳sexuality; hetrosexual as far as we know
➳crush; it's... a mess
➳species; human
➳fandom; RWBY

➳hair; black
➳eyes; red
➳skin tone; pale white

➳abilities / powers; Qrow is a master scythe wielder, using it proficiently in both hands and can slice through things so quickly that it is impossible to see, even if footage of it were slowed down. His skill is extremely difficult to match, whether he is using Harbinger as a sword or as a scythe.
In addition to this, he quite a formidable Huntsman, being extremely agile, extremely fast and extremely stong. He also excels in hand to hand combat, and is shown to be very durable and resilient, as it took quite some time for a toxin to affect him. Even when drunk, Qrow is as sharp as ever and it's wise if you don't pick a fight with him in the first place.
Qrow's semblance, or 'power', is that he brings misfortune with him, and it will affect anyone near him, regardless of if they are friend of foe and he loathes this very much. However, it proves useful when fighting an enemy, as it will put them at a disadvantage. He can amplify the effects of this if he wishes, but it will use his energy called 'Aura'; Aura protects him from much physical damage.
Qrow was also given the ability to transform into the very bird he is named after, which is very useful for espionage and remaining out of sight, two more things he is particularly good at.

➳weapons; sword/scythe/gun called 'Harbinger'. It's very big, as seen in the image above.

➳personality; For the most part, Qrow can be particularly immature and childish, being more of the 'fun uncle; rather than a responsible adult. He is quite cynical, sarcastic and blunt in his feelings towards others, but he is also mishievous and a bit cocky, though underneath all this, he has a tender heart and will defend those he thinks of as family with his life.
Qrow can also be quite cautious and is a fairly decent teacher, having previously been a professor, as well as training his adopted niece to wield a scythe as expertly as he does, so she could become a Huntress.
Despite his usual disregard for authority and rules, he did hold great trust and belief in one of his superiors, until secrets were exposed and that trust was shattered. Qrow also holds a particular distaste towards killing, despite his original intent as a youth to learn how to kill Huntsmen, showing that his attitudes have progressed very far since his early years.

➳other; i might've missed some stuff so i'm sorry in advance
