[attr="class","underrevtop"]DOCTOR X [attr="class","underrevtop2"] [attr="class","underrevblurb"] If you were to personify the word “evil”, what would you imagine? Maybe a criminal who's committed every crime in the book many times over. Maybe the single slaughterer of millions. Maybe some satanic beast that breaths fire from its jaws. When Nikki imagines evil, however, he imagines one living man: the good Doctor X.[break][break] Doctor X (and his silly, silly name), as well as the character I'll be covering next come from a rock opera called Operation: Mindcrime. If you haven't heard of it, you're not alone; most people haven't. Thankfully, their roles in the story are pretty simple, and the story itself takes place ICly over the course of several months, but OOCly in just under an hour. In the rock opera, Doctor X sits at the head of the titular Operation: Mindcrime, and underground anarchist revolution that claims to seek to “save America” from supposed corruption by killing corrupt politicians, religious leaders, and anyone else who might get in their way. He gains members of his cause easily because of his knack for speaking (he's actually a politician himself, although more specifically, he's a demagogue) and his deep understanding of the human mind. Anyone can be bribed into doing anything, and by inviting people with nothing to lose into his organization and promising the world, he'd managed to secure himself a small army of dangerously loyal murderers, spies, and thieves. They could've been well on their way to actually taking over the American government... had it not been for one tiny thing. It turned out DX didn't care for his revolution or its members at all. In fact, once offing all of his political rivals (and likely personal nemesis outside of the world of politics) had earned him an acceptable amount of pocket cash, he cut the whole thing off and left his workers to rot. He's a dangerous man because he's driven only by self interest and greed. He could wrap the whole world around his finger – and he has – but at the end of the day, he holds no love for the people in it.[break][break] Because he's intentionally made to be a rather enigmatic character, his actual canon material is pretty loose beyond what's been written above. If you're interested in taking this character, though, I do have a backstory/full name/fleshed out personality that I absolutely adore fit to this guy and would mean the world to me if you'd use, aha, but I won't flood y'all with that here. Lemme know if you're interested and I'll send you what I've got then! Remember that Nikki and Emilio Ota are gonna hound you for different reasons if you pick him up, too. That's, like. Minimum of two rad and angsty plots right there. What more could you ask for??? PREFERRED FACE CLAIM[break]GENDOU IKARI FROM NEON GENESIS EVANGELION

[attr="class","underrevline"] [attr="class","underrevtop"]SISTER MARY TAKEN [attr="class","underrevtop2"] [attr="class","underrevblurb"] Mary was sweet and innocent and she didn't deserve what she got. TnT Also, I might have someone interested in making her already, so lemme know ahead of time so I can double check. It's pretty up in the air. *sweats*[break][break] Sister Mary was, during the duration of Operation: Mindcrime, a – surprise, surprise – nun. More specifically, she was being blackmailed into being a nun by a terrible, horrible priest by the name of Father William who saved her from living on the streets (and having to sell her body to keep herself alive) some unknown number of years prior to the start of the album. Unfortunately, the cost of having a dry, warm place to stay was just as high as it was out on the streets. To make matters worse, she wasn't the only nun there with the same background and same price. It's implied that Father William forced all of the nuns there to sleep with him as payment for “saving their lives”. Sex slaves in everything but name. Nasty. Mary's importance in the Mindcrime story begins when Doctor X teams up with Father William for information. Mary's originally offered to Nikki as a drug carrier and a “play thing”, but because Nikki knows how to treat a lady like an actual human being, they don't end up sleeping together so much as becoming friends. Really good friends. While Mary fills the stereotypical love interest role, however, she defers in the fact that – while Nikki adores her, enough to through his life away for her – it's never made clear whether or not she actually loves him back. Considering her bad history with men, in fact, it's likely that she never loved him beyond a really good friend at all. We'll never really know for sure, though. When DX saw these two would-be love birds getting too close, he ordered Nikki to kill both nun and priest, and even though Nikki defected from the revolution to save Mary's life, he returned to find her with a bullet wound through her head anyway. (Was it the Doctor? Was it Nikki in a brainwashed state? Did Mary kill herself in grief, convinced that the one real friend she'd had only wanted her for her body as well? It's still a mysteryyyyyyyyyy.)[break][break] Like DX, Mary has a lot of wiggle room, albeit not quite as much since she's more of an open book. How she got to living on the streets is up to you, as is her full name and how she actually died – although, I guess, if you're RPing her alive, she'd probably get pulled from canon before then. THE MYSTERY PERSISTS. I'd also like to note that she's actually got at least some distaste for religious practices – being forced to preform them for an abusive man'll do that to you – so while she was a nun in the past, I can't see her going back to it now that she's free. What hasn't changed, though, is her devotion to Nikki and the devotion he feels back. She's sweet, she's sassy, and she deserves to be protected. Sister Mary, folks!
