The First Avenger - Centurion - 08-19-2015
Character name: Captain America
Character source:Marvel Comics
Character history:
The German War Machine is tearing through Europe and the Allies need a hero. Young art student Steven Rogers volunteers for an experiment that may grant the scrawny New-Yorker his long awaited admittance to the US Armed Forces. He is given a serum and pelted with powerful Vita-Rays. This "Super Soldier" serum alters his body, giving him superhuman strength, speed, awareness, and endurance. He is sent to fight in WWII as Captain America, a symbol of hope for his allies and defeat for his enemies, accompanied by a young boy named "Bucky" Barnes. He faces vile fiends like Nazi soldiers, Hydra, the Red Skull, and Asgardian Frost Giants alongside allies like Nicholas J. Fury, Namor the Sub-Mariner, and Dracula himself!
In a final desperate attempt to foil the Red Skull's plans, Cap and Bucky are stranded on a rocket with no escape. Bucky sacrifices himself by throwing Cap into the frigid waters below and suffering the brunt of the blast. decades later, a frozen block of ice is found in the Arctic and praised as a god... Until Nick Fury (surviving WWII and Vietnam with the help of the Infinity Formula, extract the star-spangled soldier from the ice. Cap is introduced to a strange new world full of new allies, old enemies, and a radically changed social structure. He is invited by the Mighty Avengers to join their ranks, proceeding to face gods, celestials, aliens, his old partner Bucky, and the Hulk!
Bucky later is rehabilitated and takes up Caps mantle following his supposed death. Rogers returns ans director of S.H.I.E.L.D and allows Bucky to retain the shield. Following the events of the Fear Itself story line, [spoiler]Where Bucky is murdered by the red skulls daughter (who possesses the equivalent of Thor's Hammer) and Thor falls in battle with the legendary Serpent, Odin's half-brother,[/spoiler]
Cap returns as the shield-wielding hero we know and love and proceeds to assist in the clean-up of New York... and the world. Suddenly he is no longer rescuing citizens, but in an empty white land inhabited only by a strange white child
Stats
ATK:2
DEF:3
SPD:2
TEC:3
Starting Proficiencies:
Physical Strength
Range Proficiency
Debuff Proficiency
Starting Powers:
Master Acrobat - 400
Starting Moves:
Shield Throw - 300
Captain America launches his shield forward in a similar fashion to a Frisbee. His extensive experience with this move allows him to throw with such precision that the shield ricochets back towards him unless directly interrupted. This move has the potential to cause lacerations or blunt trauma, depending on how or where the shield strikes and his adversary's equipment.
Vibranium Shield- 300
During WWII an ambitious doctor shared an iron alloy with Captain America an formed a triangular shield. It quickly shattered in combat due to stressful encounters with villains. However, T'Chaka (King of Wakanda) gifted President Roosevelt with a lump of the rare metal vibranium, part of which was dedicated to a new rounder shield and armor plating for Cap. The shield is broken during Fear Itself, and is then repaired utilizing the Asgardian metal Uru. This shield can absorb some kinetic energy, essentially preventing severe impacts from injuring Captain America. It can deflect small arms fire and resist high caliber bullets and small explosions.
Ranged Proficiency-1000
Crippling Strike - 300
Employing his tactical mindset and superhuman strength, Captain America unleashes a single strike at a perceived weak point with great force. This move can possibly disorient or debilitate. It is a quick and powerful blow delivered point blank or following a powerful leap forward, however it strains Captain America's muscles greatly.
Physical Strength-1000
Debuff Proficiency-1000
Total OM Used: 4300
Total OM Remaining: 700
I confirm that I have read and agreed to the Rules of Conduct.

II'd like to thank Makato Yuki for his suggestion. Im switching SPD and DEF. After re-reading the stat's descriptions I'm more comfortable with his numbers.
Re: The First Avenger - Centurion - 08-19-2015
Is there anything missing or incorrect on my submission? I'm just really excited o get started with this RP!
Re: The First Avenger - Tearen Wover - 08-19-2015
You'll need Debuff Proficiency for Crippling Strike. You'll also need to specify how long the target is debilitated. Since it can be delivered point blank or in conjunction with a leap, it will likely cost 600 OM.
Re: The First Avenger - Centurion - 08-19-2015
Thanks. I appreciate the advice. I'll go back and change that up a bit.
Re: The First Avenger - Centurion - 08-19-2015
I'm seeing alot of comments discussing my statistics. I love the enthusiasm and mature conversation! I saw someone mention DEF and I's remind you of his vibranium plated armor and kevlar padding. Plus superhuman bone and muscle Density. His speed is very high and he can a few hundred yeards in seconds. equally so, He is capable of lifting in excess of 1200lb (544Kg) in the standard universe. Thanks!
Re: The First Avenger - Omni - 08-20-2015
Crippling strike is approved at 300.
Shield Throw would require actually having the shield as a move first. I recommend doing that and then adding the "throw" utility onto the move for 300 for a total of 600. See other examples such as Link's Hylian Shield or Proto Man's Proto Shield.
Re: The First Avenger - Centurion - 08-20-2015
Is this better for Shield Throw?
Re: The First Avenger - Mickey Mouse - 08-20-2015
We'd need a description of the Vibranium Shield also but yes, in general, that's the idea. So if you could just write up a description for one of us to look at/approve, that'd be great.
Re: The First Avenger - Centurion - 08-20-2015
Thanks! Heres a description and, if its good, i'll edit it into the actual stats sheet.

Re: The First Avenger - Centurion - 08-20-2015
Do i need an Area Shield Proficiency for his shield to be a thing?
Re: The First Avenger - Omni - 08-21-2015
A quick Google tells me the shield is 2.5 feet in diameter, so the answer is a no.
