Strongest to Weakest 2.0

[Bridget Shine]

I'm bringing back an thread we had around here a very, very long time ago. Basically, you rank your characters from strongest to weakest in a few categories (Emotional, Mental, Physical, Powers and anything else you'd like). You can keep it to charries just on the board, or ones that you're going to have around her soon enough! 


Without further ado, my character rankings!

Emotional:

[/font][li]1. Freya- “I’m first in something? Sweet.” Freya is the least damaged simply because she’s lead a fairly normal life. Of course she’s had a few bad days, like the one that sent her Ashford, but overall she’s a pretty stable kid. [/li]
[li]2. Sam- “S-s-second? I think you’re mistaken, miss.” Sam’s very socially awkward but he maintains a steady level of emotion most of the time, he only gets upset when corned by lot of people.[/li]
[li]3. Sage- “First is the worst, second is the best, third is the one with a treasure chest!” Besides being highly neglected as a child, she’s pretty stable as far as handling ever day life. The only real problem she has is being unsure how to deal with negative emotions and she loathes being alone. [/li]
[li]4. Naomi- “Not bad! I’m not the worst!” She was doing so beautifully, but at the death of her twin brother her emotions were practically destroyed. Slowly she’s been trying to cope but one half of her is missing and it’s hard to deal with that.[/li]
[li]5. Devlin- “You’re kidding right?” He’s not the most emotionally stable. Due to his past he has a fairly large abandonment issue which leads to a lot of anger management problems. That short temper and past that is tucked away causes him to be a bit lower than expected. [/li]
[li]6. Ashton- “What flying into rages isn’t considered stable? Pff.” He sums it up. His time at Ashford has really don’t a number on him. He’s lost a lot of friends, people he considered families and now has a large grudge against prefects. Just seeing one sends him into a rage, not to mention he’s normally got a short temper. [/li]
[li]7. Veronica- “I’m perfectly fine.” And there lies the problem, Veronica tends to bottle everything up and it destroys her emotionally. She’ll enter a spiral of depression and everything continues to eat at her. While she maintains a mask of no emotion, that’s far from the truth. [/li]
[li]8. Bridget- “And here I was thinking I’d be first.” Bridget has gone through a lot of damage. I could probably write a short story on it, but we’ll just breeze over that for now. It began with her life before Ashford and has only gotten worse. She’ll hide it through her famous sarcasm, but at times she can’t help but break under the strain the situation has caused her.[/li][/ul]
Mental:

[/font][li]1. Bridget- “Wait, what?” While the child has never really sat down and paid attention in school, she’s very versed in street smarts. Aided to the fact she knows when, where, and how to apply them to most situations, it leads her to be very capable mentally.[/li]
[li]2. Sam- *blushes and stays quiet* On the opposite end of the spectrum, Sam is extremely smart book wise. He’s constantly learning, reading advanced text books and taking the most advanced courses he possibly can. He has a natural gift for all things science and math, so he’s pretty high ranking.[/li]
[li]3. Ashton- “Not bad.” Once again, he’s more of a street smart kinda guy. He’s never really paid attention in class but he knows strategy, commination, and all sorts of different training methods. Aside from that, he’s also a closet nerd who loves to read classic novels.[/li]
[li]4. Veronica- “Excuse me?” While she’s not at the top of the list, she’s very good with organizing people and different tactics of war. She was a gang leader for a reason. Not to mention he power tends to help organize her thoughts so she can think clearly and discover the best solution.[/li]
[li]5. Freya- “Really, now?” She’s actually fairly gifted in the terms of learning music, and she’s a huge bookworm. Outside of that she doesn’t particularly care for classes and often day dreams.[/li]
[li]6. Devlin- “Yeah… More of the brawn type.” Pretty much, Devlin has always been focused on the physical aspect of life with little care for anything outside of it. Of course he’s also pretty handy when it comes to street smarts, which is why he isn’t last.[/li]
[li]7. Naomi- “Darn…” Naomi is a very strong commander, and knows what to do when the time comes. However, the rest of the time (which is most of it) she’s more of a bubbly person with a childlike mind. She doesn’t really worry about things like school and other troublesome situations.[/li]
[li]8. Sage- “Does that cloud look like a dinosaur or a hedgehog?” Sage has the mind of a five year old. Yes, she’s very well read and does well in school but she’s often off in her own little world.[/li][/ul]
Physical:

[/font][li]1. Ash- “Damn straight, look at these guns!” Ash spends a large part of his time training and working out, so this really shouldn’t come as a surprise. Need I say more?[/li]
[li]2. Naomi- “Woohoo! I’m strong!” She actually did gymnastics for a while when she was younger, and she’s maintained that flexibility. Along with that, she also trains with her fellow prefects. This leads her to have a nicely toned body. [/li]
[li]3. Devlin- “What?! I’m only third?” While Dev is like Ash, and works out a lot. He hasn’t had to train for life and death consequences. It was more or less just to keep his body nice for the ladies and an outlet for his anger.[/li]
[li]4. Veronica- “Seems fair.” V tends to run to clear her head, as well as regularly box. Taking on different gangs was a lot of work, but she didn’t focus on close attacks, she was more of an attack from a distance girl. So, she’s a bit weaker than the other work out buffs.[/li]
[li]5. Sage- “Whoa, I’m not last?” She’s actually extremely active. She always climbs trees, constantly running around, and always on the go. Not to mention, she tends to rough house with her best friend.[/li]
[li]6. Bridget- “Weird, you’d think after a mercury sword to the chest I’d be at the top.” Bridget has fair stamina and is extremely flexible, but sadly she has undergone some rather intense moments of pain which have left her slightly weaker than a normal teenage girl. She also doesn’t visit the gym too often, so she’s more or less left the fitness to nature’s devices.[/li]
[li]7. Freya- “I can’t say I’m surprised.” Freya’s just a normal girl who spends most of her time with an instrument in hand or a book. She doesn’t do much physical activity.[/li]
[li]8. Sam- “I s-s-should wa- wal-walkk more often?” He’s probably right, Sam mainly keeps to his library or dorm. Often hiding away for hours on end and doing research.[/li][/ul]
Powers:

[/font][li]1. Naomi- “Cool!” Naomi has had official prefect training and has both of her powers at her disposal 24/7. While it doesn’t seem like she’d take training very seriously, she loves developing her powers and can often be seen practicing. She’s extremely skilled with one and has been considered for an Alpha prefect, but simply hasn’t wanted to move up.[/li]
[li]2. Ashton- “I’m second? What?” Ash is very skilled with his power, however, most of the time he only has access to one. His other is locked, depending on the phase of the moon, which can cause quite the issue. Yet, he has been at Ashford a long time and has developed his powers. He’s even become the BF power trainer, so it’s expected for him to be high ranking.[/li]
[li]3. Sam- “W-w-w-w-what?!” Sam may not have control over his power, nor really know what to do with it, but it is extremely powerful and very dangerous.[/li]
[li]4. Veronica- “I’m surprised I’m this high.” While V’s one power is strictly for her own gain, her other can provide a very helpful tool that can cause quite a lot of damage. It’s aided her in many situations, but it’s also have some heavy duty side effects that can easily lead her to be down for the count.[/li]
[li]5. Bridget- “I’m not last? I’m confused.” Surprise is given as Bridget’s powers are often out of her reach. But they have a grand potential, and due to her slight vacation with the government it’s slowly becoming easier for her to access them.[/li]
[li]6. Devlin- “Aw come on!” Dev can basically walk on air and make it so you can’t poke him. While it can cause a lot of trouble and can be quite useful for pranking, it doesn’t have a lot of use in any other area.[/li]
[li]7. Freya- “Win! I’m not last.” She can’t see nor control one power, and the other is a work in progress. Still, it’s highly limited. It can often lead her to trouble as she can’t see a target and can only mold things by touch and memory.[/li]
[li]8. Sage- “Flapjacks! Looks like I’m the weakest.” Sage’s characters have a lot of potential for her to gain information, but she really doesn’t work with them. That lack of training leads her to have major headaches and migraines whenever she does use her powers.[/li]
[/ul]

[Professor Lily]

Power:

[/font]- Felicia’s power is, by far, the strongest out of the bunch. One day, she might be able to throw semi trucks using only her mind. Semi trucks. Keep that in mind, those who piss her off.

2. Shizuko- “I-I’m next? I thought for sure i-it would be Camila…”- Shizuko can basically electrocute you with the nearest laptop. She’s very shy and sweet, and she probably wouldn’t do it, but it can happen.

3. Michelle- “I beat out Camila!”- This green-haired little nugget can sweep you off your feet, literally. If you’re standing on anything earthy, she can tear it out from under you. Oh, and will probably be able to break the island in half with an earthquake someday.

4. Camila- “Seriously? I’ve been here the longest!”- As much as I love her, Camila’s power is broad and has many, many applications. With this fact comes a weaker mastering, since attention needs to be split between multiple factors.

5. Alexandra- “Of course mine was going to be the weakest… I can’t fight, really.”- Essentially, Alex here has no way of protecting herself, save for pressure points. Her powers are mainly used to heal and help people.[/ul]

Physical:

[/font]- Felicia doesn’t mess around. She actually enjoys working out and takes care of herself. She’s not obsessive about it or anything, but she needs to make sure she is in top condition for whatever gets thrown her way.

2. Camila- “Now that’s more like it!”- Since coming to Ashford and training with the Battle Front, Camila has certainly gotten physically stronger. Her greatest asset is still her speed by far, but that doesn’t mean she can’t pack a punch. (Even if it’s not as strong as others, comparatively.)

3. Michelle- “Well, I have to keep my nice figure, after all~”- Michelle isn’t vain, per say, but she does like to take care of herself and go for a good run every now and again. Lifting boulders instead of weights is actually much more helpful in the long run, as long as she starts out light. She does it all to keep herself slim and fit, and it helps her do her job as a prefect as well.

4. Alexandra- “I’m not a fighter, okay?”- Alexandra is not physically strong by any means. Sure, she can help lift people, but it’s not as if she can lift a 200 pound person without help. She doesn’t really seem to care, though, since she doesn’t really fight to begin with.

5. Shizuko- “You were probably expecting this, weren’t you?”- Shizuko has had all kinds of health problems in the past and still has some to this day. She is plagued by asthma, which severely limits her breathing in times of stress or in the presence of triggers. She has a weaker immune system than most people as well, so she can fall ill quickly. Add all of this to the fact that, no matter what she eats, she can barely gain weight, let alone muscle, and it’s no wonder why she ends up here.[/ul]

Mental:

[/font]- Enhanced Intelligence. Need I say more? Okay, okay, fine. She’s basically one of the smartest people in her class (and probably the entire school for that matter) that can come up with stuff pretty much out of nowhere and draw it. Oh, and she can recall random things at will without batting an eyelash. Pretty impressive for a sickly girl, huh?

2. Felicia- “I skipped an entire grade. What did you expect?”- She’s pretty much a genius. Whether that’s do to her powers or her own free will is yet to be determined. Granted, she’s not as smart as Shizuko, but she’s not stupid by any means.

3. Alexandra: “Oh hey! Look where I am~”- You have to be pretty damn smart to read medical textbooks. If you don’t have a basic knowledge of the terminology, there’s no way for you to grasp the harder stuff. (Trust the rp’er on this one.)

4. Camila- “Are you kidding me?!”- Camila is a smart cookie. She knows a lot about a lot of things. The problem is that she has a hard time putting her thoughts into words, since they whiz a million miles an hour through her head. That and her lack of a filter. Yeah, that’s a problem.

5. Michelle- “I am no dumb blonde!”- Natural hair color aside, Michelle is not as “book smart” as the others. However, she does possess a certain amount of street smarts and common sense that will let her come out of the rain whenever she pleases without having to worry.[/ul]

Emotional:

[/font]- As annoyed as she can get with people, it takes a lot to break her down emotionally. Whether this is due to her time in the foster care system, her life with a military family, or the fact that she is a commander, is unclear. This prefect can easily put on an outer facade and pretty much make you believe it, unless you know her very very well.

2. Shizuko- “O-okay…”- Shizuko comes from a Japanese family. The culture she grew up in values stoicism, to a certain extent. She can keep her cool for the most part, but, if she’s put in a situation that scares her, she will show it just a little bit. Usually, the look on her face will say everything.

3. Michelle- “I keep my cool pretty well~”- Michelle is pretty much always happy. Why? No one really knows. Even when she becomes nostalgic, it’s a happy kind that puts the elements of the past into hopes for the future. She can lose her temper or break down if someone she cares about gets hurt, but, overall, she’s pretty stable.

4. Alexandra- “Yeah, I can be a rollercoaster at times.”- Alexandra’s moods can change pretty quickly. Usually, she’s on the more positive side, but, as soon as she’s confronted with a crisis, all of her panic centers fire on all cylinders. She can also get annoyed with people who repeatedly ignore her or just brush her off.

5. Camila- “What did you expect? It’s like, a running joke that I can’t control my emotions.”- In this girl’s defense, she has been through a lot. Losing friends and family really comes to blows after a certain point, and you start to lose your cool after holding it in for a while. Her emotions can change pretty much at the drop of a hat, so, hopefully, you stay on her good side and just pat her on the back when she gets upset. A warning, though: hugs are for friends only, so strangers, don’t touch her unless you want her screaming at you in two different languages and possibly chasing you while launching stapler-shaped constructs at your head.[/ul]

[Technician Sky]

Been awhile since the last one and a lot has changed among my characters owo

Emotional:

1. Skyelar- "You really think that the girl that keeps a level head ninety-nine percent of the time wouldn't be at the top?" Skyelar is an extremely stable girl, with very few things even freaking her out. Really, the only thing that can even break her down is if she is ever grounded for more than four or five days.

1. Eveline- "Hey now, what about me?" I really couldn't decide who was more stable, so why not make it a tie? Despite her irritation when people try to help her without asking, Eveline doesn't really fall apart easily. You won't see her having a mental break down anytime soon.

3. Kiya- "Even with my anger issues?" Despite her anger issues, Kiya is fairly calm when put under stressful situations. Her time on the streets has essentially hardened her to most things.

4. Kimberly- "I'm surprised I'm not lower..." It takes a lot of stress for Kim's other side to show, which has been on very rare occasions, the only time since arriving at the island being Pitch Black.

5. Ryder- "Huh, thought I'd be higher." Ryder's issue is his overprotectiveness. If anyone threatens Tyri he will not be afraid to jump to her defense, often times over aggressively. He is known for short outbursts if Tyri is ever threatened.

6. Aura- "Not surprising at all." Though she likes to act like nothing's wrong, her past still haunts her. She still suffers from the occasional nightmare and will panic if she catches a glimpse of her ex. Other than this though she can keep a level head in most situations.

7. Avila- "I...errr...why?" Because of her father's actions and being a runaway she's nervous around almost everyone she recognizes. She will also try to, and fail at, hiding the fact that she needs blood, not wanting anyone to use the information against her. She knows what it would take to weaken her and she wants to avoid it at all costs.

8. Cateline- ...hi..." The abuse as a child has left her fairly unstable. She suffers from constant nightmares and is extremely skittish around most people. The only thing that has helped her bond with anyone is her artistic abilities, being able to share quite happily her art with others.

9. Amaya- "Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?" Amaya, despite her powers, is obviously one of my more psychologically unstable characters. Her brother's betrayal has left her fairly cold and willing to do anything to get what she wants, even kill with very little remorse.

Mental:

1. Skyelar- "Naturally." Skyelar is a technological genius. She can make almost anything if she has the equipment and has even coded a very intelligent AI to help her in her everyday work. She is the top of her class, if not the smartest in the school with very few rivaling her. Even her weaker areas of school she rarely gets anything lower then a 98 in. Sure, some of this comes from her Enhanced Intelligence, the majority is for her love of just learning. That doesn't mean she doesn't know how to get along with others, it just isn't her strong area.

2. Aura- "I told you I'm no pushover." Despite what people have said of her in the past, Aura is extremely smart. She has a nice, 4.0 in her classes and knows she can out preform people in academics most of the time. Not to mention she knows how to act around people and is fairly social.

3. Cateline- "School can be enjoyable." Cateline, despite her social issues, she is fairly smart and can hold her own when it comes to academics. Her grades are fairly good and she is almost constantly reading, partially to try to discourage people from bothering her. Her social skills need major work though.

4. Amaya- "I should be first!" Extremely smart and can change her personality on the fly to trick even human lie detectors, her major issues is her mental instability. She'd be closer to the top if it wasn't for this fact. Her ability to shift her mind quite literally helps her retain information better then you'd expect.
5. Eveline- "Kinda have limited books." Being blind has limited Eveline's reading, making it harder to come across books she can actually sit down and read since they need to be braile.

6. Kimberly- "I didn't have formal schooling ya know." Though she is an expert strategist and fairly good at getting things the way she wants to, she has no formal education and has been working hard to increase her knowhow of everything revolving around academics. She's made strong leaps and bounds, but it's still fairly low for her.

7. Avila- "But...I'm not dumb" ;w; Though she is fairly smart academically, she does have issues when it comes to social interactions, and she does not really understand that her father had put her through abuses that are punishable by law.

8. Ryder- "Really expect me to be surprised?" Ryder, despite being excellent in combat, is far from schooled. Most of his fighting is by instinct. He is working on learning more, attending all classes and absorbing all he can.

9. Kiya- "I hate books." Far from an academic person, Kiya prefers to punch first and ask questions while punching.

Physical:

1. Kimberly- "You really think I'd let anyone beat my here?" Peak human conditioning is the main reason behind this. She is fairly strong and fast, finding herself running and lifting strengths far beyond what someone of her size should logically do. This coupled with her constant physical training means that she not only is fast and strong, but that she knows what to do with it.

2. Avila- "I...what?" Avila is at near superhuman conditioning due to constantly being under the effects of her blood empowerment. She, however, does not train often physically unless it's dance so she doesn't know quite how to use it effectively

3. Aura- "Gotta keep in shape." Aura has a fairly decent amount of physical training in both combat and endurance. Before even arriving on the island she was a track and swim meet regular and had been taking Jujitsu lessons since a young age.

4. Ryder- "I'm...not first?" Ryder, though strong, is nowhere near those above him due to one simple fact. They all have a power that buff them at all times by making it easier to be at a higher than average condition. However, his heavy physical training in order to hold his own in a near constant fighting to the death when he was younger puts him above others easily.

5. Kiya- "HOOOOOWWWWW?" Yes, she's a powerhouse. Yes she's a martial arts master. No she does not have condition enhancing abilities and relies on her powers for most of her damage. Her aura helps her win fights, not her pure physicality.

6. Skyelar- "I'm not last?" Skyelar's bird like features are enough to keep her from the bottom, though it's mostly because the people below her are, overall, less physical than everyone else.

7. Cateline- "I'm still building my strength back up..." Cateline, despite enjoying dance and always trying to keep in shape is still regaining her strength after a year in the hospital. She's not really weak, just needs a bit of help every now and again.

8. Eveline- "Ya know... why am I even here?" Eveline, though she goes for regular walks, spends more of her time reading then working out. Due to this she's pretty much your average geek minus the computer.

9. Amaya- "...being sick 99% of the time is a biach." Amaya's powers drain her immune system. She may be in great shape, but missing any day of medication can leave her bed ridden for days as she struggles with anything that decides to slip through her very weak defenses.

Powers:

1. Aura- "Wait, really?" Aura's powers are based a lot on her own creativity and what she knows of physics, which is a lot. She has turned something that most would see as one of the lesser elements into an extremely versatile weapon for fighting. She still has issues holding her constructs in one shape, but it's only a matter of time before her powers make their next evolution.

2. Kimberly- "Huh..." Kimberly can put out extremely lethal amounts of electricity and has such a fine control over wires that she's scary in close combat. Not to mention that her powers have slowly been increasing recently...

3. Avila- "I'm....really?" Avila, though she doesn't know it, actually has a lot of potential once she learns how to use her powers. Though she only heals at twice the rate, that small amount can still be enough for her to use a surprising amount of blood if she would chose to do so. Also, if she gets to the point where she can eat regular food again her blood empowerment will no longer be limited to keeping her alive for the most part.

3. Kiya- "But but but...my eyes turn red and everything!" Though she is a powerhouse, her powers are just not on par with those above ehr when it comes to versatility or outright stopping power. Though she is strong, it's hard to put her on par with Kim and Aura.

5. Amaya- "...why?" Her powers are strong, yes, but if you are immune to illusions there's not much she can do to you. Yes, her illusions are hyper realistic, but only one that she has quick access to is to believable not to believe and that one illusion forces her into close combat, something she tries to avoid.

6. Cateline- "I'm...not last?" Cateline's powers revolve around art, which is far from something that she is new at. If she is ever able to evolve her powers and learn how to use them she can create fairly scary fronts with her art, though that is a big if.

7. Ryder- "Sigh." He's a one trick pony really. Swords at night is where he specializes, and he needs that to happen. He is significantly weaker during the day, leading to him being fairly low on the list.

8. Eveline- "Kinda limited with what I can do." Being blind makes it a bit difficult to toy with diamonds. Sure, she can do that by feel, but it's not like she can use it offensively, or even defensively without being able to see it.

9. Skyelar- "Ya know, if this was taking into account my abilities with tech I'd be top." Skyelar is a beast at tech, but if she was to be scaled by her powers alone....she can fly fast?
