Infopost: The Shamelessly Plundered From Infoposts Past Edition
Otherwise known as "What the hell, how do I have this many characters," or, "We get it, Shannon, you really like mutants."
I am still disappoint that so many of these characters will never have anigifs ever unless I magically end up with the free time to make them myself, someday. Shame on you, Jono and Evan. Shame.
EVAN SABAHNUR
- Not the hairy one, no.
- Is from the Marvel 616 universe. If you've never heard of him, that's understandable. He's still fairly new, and really only shows up in Wolverine & the X-Men and Uncanny X-Force.
- His codename is Genesis! Which, I imagine, comes from the writers being all clever because he happens to be a clone of Apocalypse. Or because Fantomex is a sick, sick bastard, and I'm so sorry Cable, oh my god.
- He has memories of being raised in Kansas, with his Ma and his Pa, and of being trained to use his powers for good by his Uncle Cluster. Recently, he found out that Ma and Pa don't really exist, that he's never set foot in Kansas, and his Uncle Cluster kind of killed the little boy he was cloned from.
- He's actually on the island now because of who he is. Beyond it just not being safe for a clone of Apocalypse back there, the students at his last school had no problem coming up with mean nicknames and insinuating that he's going to commit mass genocide and so on.
- But he's a sweetheart, I swear! A really good kid who happens to have, you know, all the powers of Apocalypse, just on a seriously less well-honed scale.
- So that would include flight (he uses rocket boots at the moment), shapeshifting (usually just going all stretchy a-la Stretch Armstrong), energy projection (BOOM) and eye-beams (PEWPEW), as well as an assorted smattering of things that he hasn't really made use of, like telepathy, telekenesis, and technopathy. I'm going to say he just hasn't learned much about those three particular powers until canon tells me otherwise.
- His aura is scary. Like, dark and ominous, lurky and wrong scary. That reflects who he was cloned from, and he is desperate to never reflect that himself. Ever. He's going to be a hero someday, you guys.
- He's currently got a kind of tentative girlfriend in the Sholeh aspect of 3girls_1core and it's adorable. There is much ardent hand-holding.
- You are totally welcome to have your character recognize who he looks like. It's pretty obvious. Either for those who know of Apocalypse, or those who'd just assume that he's related to that guy who works at the Boards. You'd be accurate either way.
SPARKLE
- He's from a canon you probably don't know by the name of Habitat. It's a play written by the Canadian playwright, Judith Thompson.
- This also makes him my only character that is blatantly Canadian. Yes, I have fun with this. Yes, he bitches about the imperial measurement system and the lack of Coke with sugar in it a lot.
- He likes singing loudly, lying blatantly, smoking, drinking, doing pot, breaking into people's homes and stealing useless crap, lighting things on fire...
- Sparkle has problems. Perhaps you could tell.
- This is because he came directly from a group home in Toronto, after a pretty rough life beforehand. You will never get to learn much about that life beforehand, except that it sucked, and he's not a stranger to sitting on the wrong side of the law.
- This is because of that lying blatantly part. One minute, he'll tell you he killed his parents, the next he'll make up some elaborate story about domestic abuse. He will almost always end up laughing in your face if you believe him.
- He cares more about how his nails look than you do. Trust me.
- And he's gay. And has this tendency to fall for people that he really shouldn't fall for. He will deny both things vehemently. Unless he's fallen for you, in which case there will be some measure of obsessing.
- He probably won't fall for you. He's already far too interested in not_trivial for that.
- He probably will try to steal your useless crap at some point, though. Unless he likes you, then he'll probably just implicate you as an accomplice.
NIKOLAI BARTAMIAN
- From a superhero zombie novel by the name of ExHeroes, by Peter Clines.
- He's your typical asshole who happens to come from Hollywood and have superpowers. He poses a lot.
- He's new to the island as of this week, and has himself a job and a place to live at the Arms Hotel. He thinks he's going to get to go back to California again soon. He'd be wrong.
- Unless I state explicitly in narrative, please assume that he's always wearing a pair of dark mirrored sunglasses.
- Because if he's not wearing them, and you're not one of the undead, and you make eye-contact, you'll be falling over to have a long nap very soon after.
- I have a far more thorough infopost over here that explains his powers and the like. Please take a peek if you're unsure of how they work.
JONOTHON STARSMORE
- Another guy with funny lips from the Marvel 616 universe. Apparently that's my type right now? He's from a good chunk of X-Men related books, starting with Generation X, moving along into Uncanny X-Men, and settling lately in Wolverine & the X-Men. Currently, he's from just after his New Warriors run, right about the time Marvel stuck him on the bench for half a decade.
- He used to be on fire. He also used to be not blue.
- You really, really shouldn't call him blue.
- He owns and runs the Boards, the performing arts theatre in town. He hasn't been there very often lately, because he's been a little preoccupied with preparing for war in glacial_witch's home world.
- He knows music. He knows music better than you. All the music. All of it.
- Which is one of many reasons why his chosen tech-power is sound-based. He pretty much got all of Banshee's powers, along with the ability to make hard-light constructs, when he joined the New Warriors.
- Theoretically, he also has the potential to develop all of the same powers that I listed up there for Evan. He never will. He DENIES THEM. Denies them VEHEMENTLY.
- He also speaks with a British accent that has mellowed out some after nearly a decade spent in America. I have decided that it gets more Cockney the drunker he gets.
- He can't hold his alcohol the way he used to. Uh. Before he lost his face. I also enjoy making him make faces when he eats rich foods, because again, he spent a while without that mouth, okay?
WARREN WORTHINGTON III
- Is from that three-minute short about Warren that they made a few years back. I think it was called X3: The Last Stand or something like that...
- Would you rather I have another blue-skinned Apocalypse-tainted angry boy?
- Don't answer that.
- He graduated from Fandom High last year and is currently hanging out with glacial_witch in Glacia. Consort to the Queen, loving fiancee, and surprisingly kickass with a pair of bladed sticks, thank you for that, offers_choices.
- He has wings. Perhaps you've noticed them. He doesn't hide them anymore- He used to, but after his time on Fandom Island and a stint in Sunnydale afterward, he's pretty much sworn off of ever concealing them again.
- He also has Daddy Issues. Which tend to happen when your father devotes a decade of your life to finding a wonder drug that will miraculously strip you of two limbs.
- He's still pretty soft-spoken compared to other, more comic-canon Warren Worthingtons, since his dad also made himself strap his wings down and hide inside since the day he manifested. When he was about seven.
- He is never going to put on tights and run with the X-Men. Black leather, maybe... But the powder blue spandex look is not for him.
- Oh, and he has more money than God.
SOME WEIRD CHICK
- That would be me, Shannon, collector of super-powered social rejects, wearer of mismatched socks, eater of baby ferns.
- Lives on the East Coast of Canada, in that weird Atlantic timezone that most of you deny is a real thing.
- Works in the animation industry! Which didn't seem all that exciting until our studio scored a gig doing Teen Titans GO! for the Cartoon Network. I've also done revision animation for an as-of-yet unaired show for Disney XD, and character animation for a preschool show for the BBC.
- Yeah, I'm still awestruck about that. People see animation I made on Saturday mornings and I CANNOT DEAL.
- I still sit on the Marvel end of the comic fan spectrum. As you might have gathered from my mutant harem up there. I'm a sellout to the other side and I'm fine with that.
- This also means that my availability is prone to shift around according to how heavy my quota is, week by week. I get some give in my hours and can sometimes ping from work, but when it heaps on, you might not see me for a few days at a time.
- Can be reached on AIM via raspberryturk or soldierhonour, and e-mail at shannon.perry3d (at) gmail (dot) com.
- Careful, I bite.
- Not really.
I am still disappoint that so many of these characters will never have anigifs ever unless I magically end up with the free time to make them myself, someday. Shame on you, Jono and Evan. Shame.
