[ The image that resolves is one of a young man wearing a blue domino mask. His smile is friendly and warm as he lifts a hand in a wave hello.
It's just also largely covered by a thick black beard. (He has at least trimmed it, but it's going nowhere anytime soon.]
Hi, everyone.
We all know we're probably heading into a new mission soon, and at this point we've spent a lot of time working together and learning about each other. I know we'd all like to be able to plan ahead, but without knowing what the mission will be until it comes, the only way to get started is to figure out what kind of assets and abilities we have available.
If you're willing, check in and let everyone know what skills, talents, powers, or other abilities you have.
No one has to participate. But if we all can get a better idea of what we can do, we can try to plan ahead, form teams between people with complementary abilities.
I'll start: hi, I'm Nightwing, and while I'm a normal powerless human, I can offer hand to hand combat, acrobatic, and detective skills, and — uh —
[ He looks over his shoulder, at something or someone off-camera. ]
Hi, Robin. Care to introduce yourself and your abilities to the nice people?

Is this what you consider distinguished? Because you look like a disgrace to me.

Partly out of self defense. I'm usually the one keeping the science department from blowing itself up.

[ Tactile gravikinesis; that's the kind of ability you generally want to make a note of... and one that sounds familiar. ]
Any particular branch of science?

And you're right, this way someone without powers can make sure to team up with someone who has some, in case the next mission gets... well, dicey.

UN: Red Robin, Voice, reluctantly
Nightwing is undervaluing himself. For the record, I have decent martial arts skills and am down a sparring partner.

[ Just ignore those sounds of a scuffle— ]
And I can vouch for Red Robin's martial arts skills being far above 'decent.'

[ But he does approve of being prepared. ]
I'm Vax'ildan. Call me Vax. Back home, I was in a mercenary group, so I can fight. Before that, I was in a thieves guild. I can sneak in and out of places. Pick locks. Spot traps. Track something if there are visible signs. I'm also fast. I can fly. And I can see the dead.
... Some of those are new skills.

By new skills, do you mean you picked them up here?

[Here, she smiles and waves.]
I was a cheerleader all through high school and a couple of years of middle school, and I did gymnastics for years before that. I used to babysit after school and over summer breaks, so I'm good with kids. And parents, I guess. [And everyone, honestly. She's good at getting along with pretty much anyone who isn't overtly hostile or abrasive.]
Let's see... I read a lot. I can cook and bake. I can sew. I'm organized. I have nice penmanship?
[None of these things sound particularly exciting, but not everyone can be a superhero.]

Doreen Green, aka Squirrel Girl, powers of squirrel and girl over here! That means I'm hecka strong, good at climbing and jumping, talk to squirrels, and can do computer science stuff.
[ A beat. ]
That's more of a girl thing than a squirrel thing, admittedly.

If the next mission is set in a city park, sign me up as your partner.
When you say 'good at jumping,' what's your average distance look like?

I assume Nightwing is an alias? Your family have a love of birds, do you?
Any advice on what we can expect from this upcoming mission?
text » un: robin
Missions have varied since the beginning. One included doppelgangers with ill intent, another a deadly labyrinth, and the idiotic race that was the last mission.
Essentially, we know nothing until Aurora announces what the mission will be. And even then, I would not trust her to give enough information to know what to anticipate.

a big moment. She can do this. She can do this. Seeing all the other non-humans helps, but still. Ah. Contrary to the usual confidence she often has, she's a little meek and unsure as she speaks: ]
Hi, uh- I'm Rosie. I'm a yōkai, which translates to 'demon' but... I hope that, like, most people realize by now I'm anything but the typical idea of a demon. A-anyway!
I can heal, a little, and have some ice-aspected magic. I'm fast and have heightened senses too so I'm good for, like, stealth missions probably.
That's. That's all, I think!
no subject
That looks like it took a lot. But it all sounds impressive to me. I bet you'd be amazing at stealth missions, yeah!
Oh and I've never met a demon before you, so turns out that was a first, heh.
I'd love to learn more, if you're willing to talk about it. No pressure, of course!

I'm Jayce Talis.
[Oh, and there's that shitty kid.]
Just a scientist. Is there usually fighting for these missions?

If you look back far enough, Talis, maybe you'll be able to discern what previous missions were. You're a scientist, yes? You should be capable of doing your own research.

I'm decent in close quarters combat, and I have some shadow manipulation abilities.
Oh, and I can't die.
un:mal_durrish | video
Um, hi. Many of you are Earth people, so first things first...not from there. I'm Mal Durrish, I'm what's called a Jedi Knight from a universe where space travel is very common. So I've got some engineering skills on what a lot of you would consider very advanced things.
[She hefts her blaster]
Also, laser gun.
But the more complicated bit is that a Jedi uses something called the Force to defend people. I think you call some of what I would do telekinesis...? Something like that. I can use the life force around me to generate certain abilities. I can sense living beings nearby, move faster and jump higher, stuff like that. Levitate or push objects of different sizes. Among other things.
[And she lifts the other hand and ignites the hefty lightsaber she carries - guess who hid a stun baton in the bottom of the shaft? - the blue blade briefly filling most of the view.]
Also, laser sword. Very good with that.
