James Night

Name: James Night 
Age: 20 
Ethnicity: Caucasian 
Race (If your OC is an alien):  Human 
Allegiance: Neutral 
Devices/Abilities: 

Visor: A visor that he wears over his eyes. This visor prevents any technological based brain alterations other than that of Cade. Furthermore, the Visor can allow him to see in Infra-Red, Ultraviolet, and many other vision types. It also can act as a nanocomm, a Fusion Matter Reader, and a Smart Phone for him, all rolled into one. 
 
Multiblaster: The multiblaster is a 10 barreled gun, that cycles between Cryo and eletrical ammo, but these can be swapped out with other ammo types if need be. The gun rotates as it fires and can be set to automatic or semi automatic, firing up to 300rounds a minute if need be, but faster speeds will cause over heating. The gun is a medium range weapon and can not be used for sniping.

The Transport: A weaponized transport Cade has made for James. One of the fastest ships out there, the Transport is heavily armored, and made for combat. It's weapons include reconfigurable blasters that can be made to shoot different things, as the need should arise out of them. This incorporates the technology of his Multi Blasters, but on a larger scale than he could use, probably. This ship can travel through any and all environments. This also has missile launchers, and other weapons out the wazoo. Despite this, prolonged exposure to Fusion Matter could enable Fusion Matter to eat through it.

Perma Ice Crystal Blade: A blade that was made scientifically out of modified ice crystals for James to use in combat situations. It will never melt, and can clash with nearly all blades without any risk of breaking. This sword is special in that it will freeze anyone other than James who uses it, and can be transformed in and out of a wristband by him, because it can compress itself. This is made using high tech science by Cade that James doesn't understand fully. This can only be used when he is wearing special gloves to protect his hands. In addition, the hilt has been contained in a material designed to prevent Frostbite. The ice sword cannot be wielded by Adult Villains, or really anyone else but James.


Skills: 

James can build machines that vary in complexity. James can program computers, and also hack into them. Furthermore, he has a great understanding of technology. Another capability he possesses is when it comes to armed combat with his sword, or Multi Blaster, that he's an expert. James is also very persuasive, and skilled when it comes down to business, and business related decisions. James is also very skilled acrobatics, and free running. Furthermore, he knows how to ride a skateboard, and scooter, as well as a hoverboard. On top of that he knows how to pilot his ship. 


 



Appearance: https://i.imgur.com/DSbsQ3g.png  James wears a black and gold outfit with shoulder spikes, and a Chaos Symbol. His height is about 5"5 and his weight is average for his height. Over his eyes, he wears his visor. 
 
 
Strengths:  

Mechanically Inclined: When it comes to building mechanical devices, and high tech weapons, James is one of the people who is exceptionally good at it. 

Master Tactician: When it comes to planning out tactics for a battle field, James is very good at doing so. He is also excellent at planning out tactics. 

Combatant: When it comes to combat, James is one of the individuals you would want on your side most definitely, having a large amount of skill. 



Weaknesses:  


Enemy of the KND - The KND would likely view James as an enemy if they ever knew he had "cheated" Decommissioning.    

No Childhood: James does not remember any of his time as a child, not one bit. He's quite a bit interested - desperate about getting those memories back. This means he is willing to use himself as a guineapig for a lot of his experiments, and take risks in order to recover his memories. 

Desire to Retrieve Memories: Something that could be used against him is his want to possess his memories anew. Using this against him could allow Adult Villains, and others to manipulate him. 

Personality: James is cocky, believing that he can do what Dexter and Mandark and all the geniuses of the world haven't, take the fight to Fuse. Of course he is also cautious because he does not want to have his memories erased again, or ever for that matter because of how much the process physically hurt him, and disabled him. While he may personally prefer to rely on his own gadgets for quality control purposes when he goes out into the field, James is not afraid to share his technology with others. James does not like the KND's habit of wiping the memories, and often wishes that it would have any other way of being handled. James hates the fact that for all his inventions he will never truly be able to remember his past without the recommissioning module. While this does not make him bitter towards the KND, it makes him distrustful of them because he does not like having his head messed with. James does not know why he cannot remember his childhood, and wants those memories back. In addition he also wants to prevent it from happening to anyone else. James also does have a curiosity about the KND and their technology, as well as any and all technology that could be associated with the manipulation of memories, as he wants them back. James is desperate to get his memories back, and no matter what plans to have them back. 
History: 

James was born to two loving parents, a mom named Raiko, and a dad named Jarred. Both of them were scientists, and very good at what they did. However when James was about 5 years of age, an adult villain wanted something that his parents had developed, an exoskeletal suit that could greatly enhance the strength, and speed, and agility. His parents did not share with that villain who then destroyed them on the spot because they hadn't shared that. This was the event that would start James down the path into the KND. Of course, it was also what would lead to his eventual building of his own lab, and creation of an AI. At the time though, he was sent to live with his uncle, and his uncle had a son who was in the KND, a High Ranker. His cousin decided James could be of use to the KND because of his interest in technology. 

Training was harder for him than it was for most operatives, because he preferred relying on gadgetry, and gizmos, rather than on natural skills to do the work for him. Time progressed, and he eventually graduated. 

When he turned 10 years of age, James knew he had three years before his memory was wiped out by the process of decommissioning. Knowing the process would likely cause him to lose any and all of his technical skills that he possessed, James decided cheating the system was the best course of action. In this case, he created an AI and programmed it. The AI was put on a separate server from anything the KND used and programmed with a series of directives. First, and foremost, the AI would when he inherited the company of his family attempt to restore his memories. Secondly, it would also keep an eye on the KND in case they developed some sort of portable decommissioner, and sabotage the device so it would not work.

On the day he turned thirteen, James underwent one last mission. During the last mission he was put in intensive care, but they decommissioned him anyway. The mission was against the adult villain who had slaughtered his parents for their technology. As a result of the damage his body had, the decommissioning caused brain damage due to being defective. James was left outside the remains of his home by a couple of KND operatives who could not care less about his memories, or health or well being, but wanted to get back to their posts. His AI Cade needed time to figure some means of treatment because James was a drooling idiot. So his AI hacked an ambulance, and had some EMTs take James to the hospital. 

During the next two years, Cade studied all that he could on neural chemistry, and psychology, as well as every other science related to the brain. In addition, Cade also secretly abducted a few decommissioned operatives, and experimented on them in an attempt to find a cure for decommissioning. Once he found a suitable way to do so, Cade wiped the memories of his experiments from the minds of the former operatives, and visited James in the hospital, on the eve of his 15th Birthday. On that day he fixed his creator's mind, though he was unable to restore the memories James had. 

Two and a half years were spent by James and Cade developing new technologies but because James was still recovering, Cade did most of the work for him. As time progressed, the two of them began to make the Perma Ice Crystal Sword. Two and a half years were spent by him training with that blade, the Multi Blaster, his transport and all of his other gadgets. Finally he's become ready, and so has prepared himself to confront the KND about decommissioning. 

Do you use nanos: Yes

Cade's Information:   Cade is an AI who values the sanctity of one's mind, and free will. As a result of this he has no small amount of anger towards decommissioning, because it violates the sanctity of the mind, and is permanent. Cade is very fond of fellow AI and would try to encourage James to befriend them so he could learn more from his fellow AI. In addition, Cade does not like it when he cannot analyze something, or understand something. Given he is an AI and has emotions, Cade is not sure what Love is, or what other emotions actually are yet, though he does understand what anger is, at present, and wants to learn what the other emotions are. Cade values logic, and will do his best to present his arguments against things, or for things in an understandable, and logical way. Cade wishes he had a body, but does not at present possess one.

Abilities:  Cade is a master at design,  able to hack computers very quickly unless they are suitably protected, and even has multiple bodies with different configurations, and weapons that he can use, as well as pieces of technology he can take over.

I would say more PTSD from decommissioning would be the weakness, not the decommissioning itself.

Also, at this point during the war, the KND might not even care if he did avoid decommissioning in someway.

Not sure if replicating the book of KND could be done. It's something I'd have to check with kyra on if we'd allow that.

The history needs greater expansion, what his life was like before the KND, how he got into it. How he would join the war effort. Maybe go more indepth about how he made his labs etc.

Expanded the History, and everything. Is there anything else you need changefd about him, or does he look acceptable?

your link to appearance doens't work

I feel the water gloves are a bit over top at the start, maybe have him develop them later in the rp

Considering he has power armor, aren't the jetboots a tad bit redundant.

Edits have been completed, to the best of my ability. Hopefully the application has proven in your eyes to be acceptable now.

I'd like to see a short description of his appearance along with the picture. Also, for the strengths to be detailed like the weaknesses are.

He has a lot of different devices. I would cut at least three of them, and add a power level, (Low, Medium, or High), to the gadgets that it would apply to.

I believe the edits you want are done, but let me know if you need any other changes to his application.

All forms? How would this protect from magical/demonic influences?

Datasage wrote:The Cane: This can also recommission operatives in certain circumstances. (OOC Permission, Staff Permission.)

Your OC cannot have the ability to recommission/decommission K.N.D. operatives. 
 

Datasage wrote:James is also very proud in that he refuses to use the items made by Dex Labs, or Mandark's corporation, or anyone else unless he has no other choice in the matter.

What is his stance on shared technology? And on the K.N.D. working with DexLabs in the war?

Datasage wrote:During those three years he studied all of the KND Technologies, even the Recommissioning Module, and many other devices the KND had, secretly recording the designs so he could try to improve them, and leaving the recorded designs somewhere he'd remember, even if he was decommissioned, along with a series of video diaries he made.

How would he have access to the Recommissioning Module? Was he a high-ranking techie in the K.N.D.?

Datasage wrote:In addition to that, James made several back doors into the KND systems for his own use, as he was working on an Artificial Intelligence. Once the AI, Cade was completed, James programmed Cade to secretly make the KND more successful on their missions, while harvesting blueprints of all their weapons, and equipment, and emailing it to a remote server farm that James had access to, but would not remember.

Again, how would he have access into K.N.D. systems? How could the AI make the K.N.D. better at their missions when it would not have control to do that? The agent's own skill and teamwork would be what makes them successful.

Why is James so obsessed with stealing K.N.D. blueprints and tech if he prides himself in using his own creations?

Datasage wrote:Once he had his memories 'restored' by the process of the AI James developed new technologies, and decided he would secretly help the KND out when they needed it, but at the same time would make sure that the KND never permanently damaged the brains of anyone with the process that had nearly made him brain dead in the first place. James adopted a son at the age of thirty, an orphan who has amnesia, and doesn't remember his family.

How long did the process of restoring his memories take? Why would James still care about the K.N.D. if he had lost all his memories? How would the AI restore the memories unrelated to the K.N.D.?

What's his son's name, and how old is he? Does he go to school? How would he want to help his son in the K.N.D. if operative's parents are blissfully unaware of it?

The cane already has a lot of stuff build into it and the fact it has the power to recommission people seems a bit too much to me. Plus with everything built in its a very high powered item. Please do not take it the wrong way, but for now, just leave it with the tractor beam.

Took out the Cane Entirely.  And fixed every other issue, though I did add the water controlling thing since the Calvary Sword doesn't qualify as a Gadget, and he does not have his armor at present. So does he look acceptable?

I would say make the gauntlets control water only, rather than all moisture and liquids. Just so we don't end up with a Bloodbender situation.

Took out the Gauntlet for now. Does he look acceptable now?

Ok, his PTSD from de-commisoning, since he has no memory of it and he was in a coma how can he have this sort of psychological state? One must be wake and aware to really develop this condition. So this weakness really has to go, since there is nothing to trigger him from entering into a PTSD freakout.

The edits you wish have been completed, I do believe. Let me know if I missed anything.

How does not having no childhood, come across as a weakness? What sort of desperate things does he do? Does he take risk? This one needs to be fleshed out a bit more.

Expanded upon the weakness. Hopefully it is good enough.

What's his relationship with his AI? Is Cade basically James' best friend?

Kinda. It's more like Cade is his advisor/personal assistant.

Does Cade have feelings and thoughts? Or is he just a computer program?

If he is an equivalent of, say, Computress, you should add a section detailing his personality and functions.

The edits you wanted have been done, if you need more detail,, I will.

hmm, I'd like to see Cade Vs Cy JR now. Anyway, I'll give this a tentative approval.

Sorry for getting to this late, but thank you for adding information for Cade. I'll give an approval as well.

I'll be approval number three.

A month late is fine, right?
