Hello everybody! Boy how I have been looking forward to this one.
So basically the way this roleplay is going to go down is I want you to make your own interesting superhuman character that will be able to interact well with the environment I'm setting out. Your character can simply be born with their powers or you can come up with a convoluted backstory like me. If you want some really outlandish reason (Again, like me) I'll just need to approve it first.
So moving on to the "City of lies" part of this roleplay. Allow me to introduce you to the worlds biggest city, Ragnarok, the home of innovation. Or at least that's what the billboards say. All this will be set in an alternate earth in which some technology will be a lot more advanced than what we see today. Ragnarok was built to be the very definition of futuristic and for the most part it succeeded. Worlds lowest yearly emissions, worlds smartest city, worlds most employed citizens, e.t.c, blah, blah, blah. That's not to say its perfect, far from it. Crime is a serious problem in this city, from the small scale muggings to bank heists and major organised crime. Stuff a super powered being like yourself could be stopping...
Ragnarok looks a lot like New York but is actually situated by itself in the middle of the Atlantic ocean on its own little island. What a rebel, I know.
Rules
1. All of Pokecharms usual rules, if your not familiar with them go check them out.
2. No Mary Sues please.
3. No god modding, feel free to craft your own story in the city but dont go doing anything too major without my permission. Oh and your not invincible so be prepared to lose to some foes.
4. Only one major character per person but you can make NPCs if you want.
5. Just put spogots in the extra information part of the character template so I know you read this.

So here we go with mine. And its probably worth reading this because the reason my character has his powers is pretty important.
Name: Knox Everett
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Power: So basically Knox is half demon. Due to this he has superhuman strength and agility as well as few other useful demon tricks up his sleeve. Although he currently cant control it he can undergo a transformation that allows him to obtain demon features such as the tail, claws, wings and horns. His other key abilities are shadow stepping, a short range teleport basically in which he becomes a shadow in the floor and can zip along a surface before reappearing in a solid form, Sacred tether (This one will only really make sense after reading his backstory), Knox is able to summon portals of fire to send demons and other truly evil beings back to hell when are they have been defeated and Jury vision, he can judge a person soul just by looking at them.
Personality: A bit of a pessimist, Knox has always felt as if life just had it out for him. Understandable really when your father is literally Satan. More on that later. Anyway the young man has always had trouble mingling socially but has a good heart and has always felt pity for those who cant defend themselves from all that's bad in the world. On the flip side he has no tolerance for those who are polluting the world he was born in with their evil and greed, he doesn't really belive in redemption. Due to his powers Knox is a terrific judge of character and may seem a little forward, putting a lot of trust into people he has just met as he already knows if they are trustworthy or not.
Appearance: At 5ft 9 Knox stands just below the average height of guys his age but his mess of dark brown hair does serve to make him seem a little taller. He has steely grey eyes that have a remarkable resemblance to thunderclouds, just like his mothers he is often told. He is of a semi muscular build, not skinny but not exactly bulging with muscles either. His pale skin is sprinkled with some very light freckles across the bridge of his nose but they are almost impossible to see without the right lighting. When using Jury vision a golden pentagram appears in his right eye, hell of a party trick I know, and will stay there until he finishes using his ability. Clothing wise he wears a grey Metallica shirt with a high collared thick black coat over the top. On his legs he dons a pair of dark blue denim jeans that couple nicely with his grey and white trainers. No need to look like a Hero when you dont feel like one after all.
Alternate outfit: N/A
Backstory: Right, time to explain all the odd stuff that crops up in this character bio. In this rp hell exists okay? No its not an after life, its simply an alternate dimension that lays as close to ours as possible, allowing the two to occasionally over lap. The demons in it might as well be aliens. Early Christians depictions of hell were probably written by those who had been unlucky enough to pay the place a visit. Satan is also real, the king of hell and proud of it. Demons often slip through into our world and disguise themselves as humans, which is part of the reason the crime rate is so high in Ragnarok. Anyway the reason that Knox has his powers is that his mother was kidnapped by some Satan worshipers and used in a ritual to give their god a child. Problem being that the poor women died during the spell and it was never quite completed. None the less Knox was born, from fire not women, a baby not demon enough to live in hell but not human enough to ever live a normal life. Satan frowned upon the existence of such a child but decided to let the boy live, he was a failed experiment, what harm could he do? So flash forward 19 years of orphanages and horrific experiences with demons we see Knox as he is today. On a mission to return every last demon to hell and rid his world of their kind.
Extra: Spogots.
