Character concept
Twilighter got rather, what's the word.... too pleasant to RP, everything settled down into a nice routine, things were stable and enter Tomb the rather polar opposite of the happy little Twilighter.
Contents |
[edit] Affiliations
Tomb is the Praetorian version of Twilighter
[edit] Personality
Tomb is not an actual person and thus her personality is rather skewed, created by the mind of a terrified little girl, to be strong enough to survive in the Praetorian world she's less developed than a full person.
The Tomb persona lacks compassion because Sarah saw that as a weakness.
Unrelentingly cruel Tomb hurts people without rhyme or reason, merely reveling in the pain of others.
Sarah is a nice enough girl, a little shy around people she doesn't know, loving of her 'sister', a little on the naive side.
Gamma is essentially neutral, good or evil, pain or pleasure, neither matter to the machine soul (AI) known as Gamma, it worked for Tomb and now it observes through Sarah experiencing the world through her eyes.
[edit] Motivation
Power.
Money.
Strength.
Fun.
These four things are what motivates the persona known as Tomb

[edit] Army Of Thugs
Junkies and thugs loyal to here only though the chains of their own addictions make up most of Tombs power base.
Originally they would not be much use but through the use age of combat drugs and meta human steroids they are more impressive than they look.
[edit] Combat Drugs
Using various chemicals and technological gadgets Tomb is able to keep those around her fighting for longer and more ferociously than should be possible.
[edit] Additional Powers
[edit] Cybernetics
Her enhanced physiology allows her to recover from wounds and exhaustion quicker than should be possible for a child or even a grown woman.
[edit] Jump Pack
An anti-gravity pack allows Tomb to travel in great leaps.
[edit] Tactical Training
The AI built into her body activates in combat situations allowing her to process the battle quicker. In turn this allows her to assist her team mates to be more effective in a fight.
[edit] Frenzy Mutagen
After impressing Captain Mako with the ferocity with which she accomplished several missions for Arachnos he gave her access to Frenzy Mutagen.
When used it causes her to form expressions of her hatred for the world as negative energy constructs, usually ferocious beasts that seek to devour the world around her.
How ever the strain is great on her little body and thus it's only to be used in extremely serious situations.
[edit] Abilities
Tomb is an accomplished chemist and biologist focusing mainly on drugs and combat enhancements.
[edit] Vulnerabilities
For all her tough talk and near suicidal frenzy in combat, Tomb is merely a persona created by a scared little girl. It's quite possible a strong enough telepath could erase her and force Sarah to be in control.
Despite her enhancements and chemicals Tomb often pushes herself too far, simply put she has no ability to care about her body, deliberately letting her self get injured or abused if it gets her what she wants.
[edit] Equipment
[edit] Medical Belt
Tombs medical utility belt contains various drugs and combat enhancers to keep her junkies in line, also several are for personal use.
[edit] The Stores Weaponry
Not all weapons she comes across are sold, several including a Rikti Rifle and Quantum Array Gun are kept for private use.
[edit] Character History
[edit] The Time Before
Sarah Mc Kensie's parents were as good as people could be on Praetorian earth, loyal citizens who kept their heads down and tried to live from day to day as best they could.
One day however that peaceful life was shattered when a bunch of thugs from one of the local gangs decided to have some fun with the family.
After watching her father killed and like her mother being used to service the various whims of the gang members something inside Sarah broke and she started to hide away from reality.
[edit] The Birth Of Tomb
Sarah's mind clung on to what one of the raiders had growled into her ear when she had asked him why, why he was doing this to her.
“The strong can do what they like”
But Sarah wasn't some one strong, she knew this and thus a formless, nameless feral identity started to form in the young girls psyche.
From time to time heroes rose and tried to fight against Tyrant's regime, rose up and usually fell soon after, one of these heroes was a mechanical soldier from another dimension Guard Unit Gamma. It was during one of this heroes fights she was critically wounded, appalled at hurting a bystander the machine took her away and rebuilt her as a cyborg.
At this point the feral psyche lashed out in pain and fear, ripping the machine soldier apart with her newly enhanced body.
Walking into the sunlight as if freshly risen from the grave the feral persona chose a name for itself.
[edit] The Journey to CoX Earth
Tomb as she eventually started calling her self knew that she could not remain on Praetorian Earth, not if she intended to get stronger. Those who were currently strong would tread down on those trying to rise.
She needed a fresh start, somewhere easier to gain strength.
She came up with a plan.
She chose a young man, a fresh recruit in the gang of thugs who worked for the Praetorian Marauder. Crafting this young man with combat enhancing drugs and stimulants, manipulating those around him to help the young man rise through the ranks.
Throughout this she stayed by his side serving him faithfully, fulfilling his every appetite, physical, chemical and mental.
Eventually it paid off and when the man was sent in command of a raiding squad to CoX Earth, she went with him, smiling and waving she walked off into a new world safe in the knowledge the raiding party was about to die from the chemical plague she'd just infected them with.
[edit] Mania
One of Tombs first acts in this world of heroes and villains was to attempt to mess with the status quo, a gathering of heroes were selected and a play put in motion.
Lemonade was sold on behalf of charity, lemonade with the additional ingredients of LSD and PCP.
Tomb was arrested.
Her second attempt again led to her incarceration, but this time without a lucky Rikti raid to help her escape. Sent to an asylum for mentally ill children it seemed that would be the end of Tombs story.
[edit] Across the Ocean
As Tomb settled down to a life of colouring books and apple sauce with pills, fate it seemed had other plans for the girl.
Arachnos had heard that one of the children currently in the Asylum was capable of looking into different worlds, a useful ability the spiders wanted.
The asylum was attacked, the patients and others kidnapped.
Taken to the Rogue Islands, Tomb eventually escaped and after being warned about her actions was allowed to operate as a destined one.
[edit] The Store And Beyond
Tombs current actions are focused towards gaining wealth as fast as possible.
Money is power.
Power is strength.
The strong can do what they like.
Drugs, weapons, slaves anything that can make her money comes under the stock of the store.
[edit] Well It Had To Happen Sooner Or Later
Friendship is an alien concept to the girl known as Tomb, seeing those around her as merely tools and playthings and so it was with the homunculus Rapturous. Tomb's 'playing' with Rapturous lead to Rapt, being left for dead, pinned to the floor of a warehouse.
This angered the psychic Pzysan who had made Rapturous one of her possessions.
Confrontation soon followed and the persona of Tomb was erased, but not before the place of meeting had been reduced to a scene of carnage.
[edit] Redemption Or Reincarnation?
With Tomb gone Sarah was once again in charge of her body, left with a gap in her memory from the time with Tomb in possession of her body, Sarah began to fill it with half remembered lies and made up events.
Believing her self to be the younger sister of one of the heroes she met as Tomb, Sarah is trusting and naive, if some what shy around new people.
Meanwhile Gamma watches, gathering more information.
[edit] Family
One of the lies Sarah remembered was the claim that the human bonded to the Warshade Lyta, Jenny, was in fact her sister.
Perhaps it was pity, loneliness or a desire to help Sarah that made Jenny accept Sarah as her sister, but Sarah is currently as happy as a clam living with her 'sister'
[edit] Evolution
While Sarah is content to spend every day in homey peace with her sister, Gamma has become obsessed with becoming 'alive'. Observing the way Sarah's brain works the machine soul alters it's own programming to mirror the changes emotions cause.
[edit] Xanatos Roulette
Gamma was not satisfied with the weakness of Sarah's body, without the feral insanity of Tomb, the meek and mild mannered little girl would forever be at threat of those stronger than her.
Gamma came up with a plan, kidnapping a vampire (Kallandra), the AI tried to break her will through torture and abuse, the vampire proved too tough for that, not breaking before rescue.
So the AI changed it's method.
Kidnapping her again, Gamma used a cocktail of drugs and psychological combat to bend Kallandra to it's will, resulting in the vampire embracing Sarah out of an effort to avoid future loneliness. It did not know however Kallandra would have to feed Sarah the vampires own drug tainted blood.
Trying to remove the chemicals from their body Gamma was unable to prevent the assault carried out on Jenny, by the Quantum Array Gun armed villain Stormraiser.
Left in a deep sleep by the loss of War Shade Lyta, Jenny becomes the sole focus of both Gamma and Sarah as they try to find away to make her better!
[edit] Happy Family
Sarah began to slowly hate Kallandra, the simple pleasures in life having been stolen by the vampiric curse.
While at first their relationship seemed to be that of a family, with Kallandra acting the part of the young mother, or wiser older sister and Rapturous being the baby of the family.
Which would of been a fine way of living but Sarah couldn't help herself, Sarah kept trying to hurt Kallandra, often with out even realizing that she was doing so.
