  1. Re: Around the World With A New Character Each Week

     

    Good Point! I had a lot of inspiration for team based on the movie "Soldier" starring Kurt Russell, except for a lot more "life", and the TV show "Dark Angel" starring Jessica Alba.

     

    The line between whether a person with powers uses them for good or evil is probably a very thin one. Heck I guess the same could be said just about anyone. A person could live a good life, or be a burden on society.

     

     

    AMEN !

    For those keeping score' date=' Serbian Six was split up between myself and Tribe. I wrote: Neko, Drvo, and Cetiri, while Tribe wrote Dvoje, Petica, and Setorica. Oh and I wrote the teampage, while Tribe came up with the logo. Hope everyone likes the Serbian Six.:)[/quote']

     

    Psst.

    They are bad Boys and Girls, nobody is supposed to like them.

    Use them as Opponents, oh yeah deffinitley......., they are the sort of Baddys everybody loves to hate, even if two of them are mostly to be pittied.

    (Actually all six are Victims.)

     

    Edit: Why do people always want that we like their Villains ? :-)

    Whoever wrote the Articel obviously had no real Idea from where Red Sonja really was from.

     

    If you don´t like what is written in Wikipedia, you can go and edit it.

    So take whatever is written there with a grain of Salt.

    SAHARA

    Idrissa Cisse

    Character Sheet (Click Here)

     

    Background

    Idrissa Cisse is a third-generation law enforcement officer and grew up with a high regard for law and order. She enlisted in the police force as soon as she was deemed old enough, and proved to be as dedicated and tireless as her father. Her reputation as a hard-headed by-the-book cop spread and this, along with her imposing 6'5" frame, made her something of a pariah amongst the other police officers. No one wanted to be her partner and she was often consigned to desk duty.

     

    Despite the best efforts of her family, Idrissa quit her job as a police officer and opened up a private investigator's office, using her knowledge of police procedures, criminal law and the local area to establish herself as someone who got the results her clients wanted. During one investigation Idrissa found herself uncovering a plot by the Sons of Set to poison the Bamako water supply. She had no back-up but confronted the saboteurs single-handedly. Despite her best efforts she was bundled up and thrown into the water supply inside a chemical drum. She experienced the obligatory flashbacks as she felt death approaching, but rather than die she gathered strength from the family line and her ubergene activated, granting her the ability to transform into living sandstone.

     

    She smashed her way out of the drum but found herself at the bottom of the reservoir, unable to swim to the surface. She calmed herself and managed to revert back to her human form which then allowed her to swim to safety. Once back on land she focussed her thoughts and called in the police, but she also knew she had enough time to capture the saboteurs herself. She transformed again into her sandstone form and beat them senseless. When the police arrived she stood before them with the saboteurs, proudly displaying her new look.

     

    Within days she was back on the police force and the Chief of Police and Minister of Defence had her appearing in public to stir the country's confidence. She has become a solid symbol for her people and has defended Mali from all manner of threats, most often having something to do with the nearby Sons of Set.

     

    Personality

    Sahara is a bigger than life symbol for Mali and she has been determined to achieve such a status. While she is now the darling of the government and police department, she still remembers the ill feelings towards her before she became an uberhuman. She has a partner but never seems to keep them for longer than a month at a time. This uneasiness is something she has grown to accept, and she looks at the other police officers as being somewhat lacking in moral fibre and professionalism anyway. She tolerates her partner and the rest of the force, but knows deep down that she is the one who is holding everything together.

     

    Idrissa is a devout Muslim and between her job and her faith she really has very little time to devote to other pursuits. She is vehemently against gambling in any forms and is a vocal opponent of alcohol, especially when sold to minors. While she has worked briefly with Africa Force, she refuses to join them because she sees them as being too caught up in international politics and intrigue - usually at the expense of protecting the world around them. She has, however, developed a close friendship with Peacemaker, and the Tsholofelo family has helped create synthetic clothing which is able to withstand her metamorphosis into Sahara.

     

    Quote

    "There is no place for crime in this city, and with that said you are not welcome in this place." (* See Below - I need a better quote!)

     

    Powers

    Sahara is able to grow living sandstone over her entire body which endows her with uberhuman strength, enable her to lift in excess of 12 tons, and provides her with extensive resistance to physical attacks. While in her sandstone form she weighs close to a ton and is able to draw energy from the sun. She generally uses her brawn to pummel her opponents into submission and has a wicked punch which is capable of collapsing buildings and denting armoured tanks.

     

    Appearance

    Even before she became Sahara, Idrissa Cisse was an imposing woman at 6'5" and looking like a weight lifter. She intimidates most of her police colleagues and no longer cares about it, seeing herself as now being beyond the confines of normality. She wears her police uniform when on duty, but also wears the costume she received from Africa Force as her uniform is not able to withstand her transformation into Sahara.

     

    As Sahara she appears to be covered in a thick but flexible sandstone. Her face is also covered but it is still possible to discern her eyes, nose and mouth. Her costume is a flexible black leotard and boots, with red headscarf and belt sash. Over this she wears a soft yellow hajib and robe.

     

    Notes

    I hate the quote. Can someone help me out with a better one?

     

     

    Sorry Tribe, I love your Africa Force Idea and I know that your Uberworld is fictional, but a malinese Policewoman ? I have worked there and I consider her highly unlikely (at least as Policewoman), maybe try Archeologist.

     

    BTW: Quote: " Our People have been here since the dawn of time, we don´t need your Kind of interference and "help" here....." (heavy sarcasm on the help part)

  5. Re: Slavery, DEMON, and Lugendu

     

    Thanks for the response. Nice to know that somebody read this.

     

    Hmm, isn't there some law in the US against our good citizens going to someone else's country and beating up a high government official, even if he's a total lowlife? (Which is probably why the Fantastic Four never just flew over to Latveria and kicked the ever-loving cr*p out of Doctor Doom).

     

    They never did ?

     

    Odd......
