    Ahhh I hope I'm not too late to sign up! I was convinced to sign up only recently >u<
    Name: Cassandra (Cassie) Cole (Needles)
    Gender: Female
    Age: 23
    Power (If any): Ferrokinesis
    Appearance:
    Cassandra is an average young woman, at the height of 5' 4” and long chestnut brown hair that reaches to her mid back, usually kept in a braid or bun. She has a fair complexion, with a smattering of light brown freckles on her nose and cheeks. Her bottle-green eyes rest behind a pair of red framed cat-eye glasses.

    Her day to day clothes usually consist of sweaters and jeans, having a preference for soft, warm clothes. She often wears boots and a bag holding her knitting and sewing projects.

    When she takes the mantle of Needles however she wears a long sleeved silver shirt with pieces of metal sewn on, and a black leather jacket bedecked with chain and more pieces of metal. She wears a simple pair of denim jeans, as well as a pair of steel-toed combat boots with steel soles. To cover her face she has a metallic motorcycle mask, similar to something one might see on Smoke from Mortal Kombat
    History:
    For most of her childhood, Cassie was raised by her grandparents, and then her grandmother after her grandfather suffered a fatal heart attack. Her grandmother is still alive, and they are both on good terms with one another.
    When Cassandra was 4 her parents died in a car accident while they had been on the way to an art show put on by her school. After her parent's passing, Cassandra was left in the care of her grandparents, who raised her lovingly and nurtured her love of art and creating. She became a cosplayer, and discovered her powers that way.
    She was sewing her newest cosplay when she sneezed, causing all of the needles in her nearby pincushion to fly into the ceiling and stick there. The surprised and concerned 13 year old went to her grandma who assured her that all would be fine if she kept her power a secret.
    She then grew on to be a cosplay designer and creator, crafting and making cosplay items and accessories then selling them on her online store.
    Cassandra loves what she does, but felt like she should do something to help Foram everywhere, so she began practicing with her powers, and with time and constant practice, became an excellent marksman using her power to fling knives and needles as well as other sharp metallic objects.
    Soon, she began doing work as a vigilante, calling herself Needles because of how she discovered her powers.
    She lives with her grandma, Adelina, in the Lower East Side of Manhattan.
    Personality:
    A cheerful and amiable person, Cassandra can come off to some as absentminded but she hides a quick wit underneath that facade. She smiles often and as a teenager suffered from severe anxiety, which caused her to withdraw and added a shy note to her personality. Now in her twenties she is an outgoing young woman with a sense of right and visions of a potential, positive future for Foram.
    Alignment (If any): Vigilantes
    Other: When exposed to high amounts of magnetism she gets headaches, as well as if she tries to lift more than a certain weight she can get headaches and nosebleeds.
    Wears contacts when out and about as Needles.

    Because I need a comic relief character and we need a NoMaj.

    Name: Conrad Campopolus, a.k.a. “The Righteous Armadilloman”
    Gender: Male
    Age: 21
    Power (If any): Conrad has no powers of which to speak, despite his insistence otherwise.

    Appearance: Conrad is a heavyset young man, but fortunately his high school wrestling career and frequent trips to the gym have ensured that at least some of that bulk is muscle. Despite his 6’3’’ and broad-shouldered frame, there is something inherently nonthreatening about Conrad, largely due to the wide grin that is often plastered on his lightly bearded face. Muddy brown eyes and matching hair trimmed very close to his skull are separated by a smaller-than-average forehead, giving Conrad a bit of a simian appearance.

    As a college student, Conrad is usually clad in an informal uniform made up of whatever was at the top of the clean clothes pile, often including one of the seemingly innumerable SUNY sweatshirts that he picked up during his time on campus. As “The Righteous Armadilloman”, however, Conrad decks himself out in a full set of hockey pads, hidden underneath a poorly-sown cotton jumpsuit in dazzling maroon donated by a few girls on his floor with a giant black Comic Sans-style “A” on his chest and a similarly, though not perfectly matching, dark gray cape. For a mask, Conrad somehow managed to combine wrestling headgear with the top half of a ski mask, allowing him to hide some of his face but keep the lower half exposed, including that winning smile. It does about as good a job at hiding his identity as you would expect.

    History: For most of his life, Conrad lived a spectacularly unimpressive life. Growing up in a suburb of Buffalo, he became a big fish in a little pond so to speak: big man on campus, captain of the wrestling team and goalie of the hockey team, homecoming and prom king, he fit the stereotypes to a “T”. But none of that left him feeling particularly accomplished and it seemed as though he was destined to go to school for four years, get a job in sales like his old man, and shuffle through life until it ended. There were no peaks or valleys, just a steady line of existence.

    After he started college at SUNY New Platz, however, Conrad found his calling in life. A man calling himself “Impact” had decided to rehabilitate Forams in the public eye by publicly doing good works and fighting crime. Conrad had no real opinion on the issue of Foram rights, but he was enraptured with the idea of superheroes being real and asked himself, “why not me?”

    Thus, despite lacking any actual powers or talents, Conrad set out to craft a superhero identity: “The Righteous Armadillo”. Despite his efforts to hide his identity, Conrad’s popularity and poorly designed costume did little to hide his identity. He became a bit of a minor celebrity on the campus, helping out his fellow students with minor safety issues.

    His “open secret” was discovered by the government very easily and they hauled Conrad into a detention center for monitoring and questioning. Rattled, Conrad spilled his guts and admitted that it was all made up. After two weeks, he was released after signing an affidavit not to make any public declarations of support for Foram or vigilantism in general. His dorm was also bugged.

    That kept him on the straight and narrow for a while, limiting his appearances as the Righteous Armadillo, but when Demon’s Run made its public threat, Conrad couldn’t just stand by and do nothing. As soon as finals were over, he headed to New York City to help in anyway he can, which probably won’t be much.

    Personality: Conrad is not particularly smart, but he more than makes up for that with guts and enthusiasm. When Conrad sets his mind to doing something, nothing can dissuade him from that path, no matter the danger or the discomfort. Unfortunately, he has applied this tenacity to dressing up in a costume and walking the streets. Still, it is something to be admired. In terms of social interactions, Conrad is an overly gregarious and friendly individual especially to strangers and people he has barely met, often employing a lot of physical contact such as high fives and fist bumps. Undergirding every part of his personality is a belief, nay, a confidence, that everything works out for the best. This faith in the arc of the universe and the fundamental goodness of his fellow man can make Conrad far too trusting, but at least he will make those mistakes with a smile on his face.

    Alignment (If any): Vigilantes fanboy
    Other:
