002.  EXTRA ORDINARY

Near death experience: Harvey's winning jeopardy required him to do a little tour. He already had the money deposited so he wasn't in a position to say no. So being one of the first ones up for a panel. He was there asking question. A photographer asked for him to press the button and his heart stopped. He woke up in a morgue and found himself doing probabilities of getting out and stealing a security guards uniform. Since them he has legally been a man without a name.

Powers:

Power-Probability Manipulation- the power to manipulate probability might seem mundane at first sight. But Rubix likes to take it to the next level. He uses probability to his advantage by creating challenges for the heroes in questions from riddles to impossible board games with almost unreasonable constraints.

Rubix still believes he’s being fair stating the probability, timing, and a head start when he’s feeling generous.

Rubix likes the idea of probabilities because unlike most of his life, they give him some form of control. Even if it isn't garanteed, he believes it better than nothing. And datas is in valueable

Drawbacks/Vulnerabilities: Calculating Probabiliities don't always mean they come true. A person can also refuse to participate in his challenge. Finally after a probaility challenge he is emotionally and mentally exhausted. Closing time is a sentimental song because it reminds him of the times he heads home and sings off key with her. Finally certain substances such as weed make him extra sleepy.

Why he's a villian: It's one thing when your first love leaves you and you have to learn to accept that. It's another thing when Harvey learned that fame after his death was fleeting and his death was covered up. It made him feel out of control of his own existence. And if the big guys wanted him in the shadows, he'll give them a menace in the shadows. He pushes people in power in particular Cerb to show them he's here.

The first time he smiled is when he saw mysterious menace traumatize the bank workers. With a mask on face and a dark shimmer costume he became Rubix

Cerebrus Corp: They're tracking someone the problem is since he's dead there isnt a set identity. Their main lead is someone messing in elaborate buildings and distressed cerb agents he messes with

Codename: They chose rubix like the rubrix cube. 1) because its a common toy available so cerb couldn't narrow him down and 2) such a fun one

Extra:

He grew up a doctor's son and hence his issues

Was a nerd but also class clown

Former friend of Omars because of the incident that shall not be named

Esen's former finace how kinda still cares about her as a person but refuses to say that aloud because he doesnt want her to have a target on her back. Has the promise ring but like lies and says its his father's class ring

Was Jeopardy college week champion from 2019-2020 but his episodes were pulled because he died on tour and that would just open a ton of lawsuits

Did I mention he hates abc for basically almost wiping his accomplishments off the web , he really does

If he didn't have his nde he would probably be a congress librarian

when he uses his power he feels like he's something and eyes glow green cause probability powers

And yeah thats it for now

[mccoys-killer-queen]

@axelandriab​ thank you so much for tagging me in this bc seeing brand new questions I’ve never answered before is like a breath of fresh air

Do you prefer writing in black or blue pen? black

Would you prefer to live in the country or the city? I think about this often and I always used to say city but I’m feeling more country now

If you could learn a new skill, what would it be? guitar... please... if not that then I’d like to speak German fluently...

Do you drink tea/ coffee with sugar? nope (unless you count honey as sugar for tea, then yes)

What was you favourite book as a child? I honestly don’t remember reading books/having books read to me but it was probably Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown

Do you prefer baths or showers? I haven’t taken a bath in a good 6 years so I forget what it feels like (I don’t fit in my bathtub anymore... I’m too long) so I gotta say showers by default

If you could be a mythical creature, which one would you be? either some sort of fairy, nymph, or shapeshifter 

Paper or electronic books? Paper

What is your favourite item of clothing? my denim jacket with all my patches on it

Do you like your name? nope :3) I think Rachel is a very boring, generic, uncreative White Girl name and if I ever get famous (which ain’t gonna happen) I’d totally go by a pen/stage name

Who is a mentor to you? pssh just any of my Rock and Roll Dads (i.e. Joe Elliott, Brian May, Kevin Cronin, Nikki Sixx, etc), I feel like They guide me somehow

Would you like to be famous? famous for something good? Yes. I’m such an extrovert like 60% of the time and I love oversharing and sometimes feel like I’d be good at handling fame. Plus honestly I don’t feel like I’ll be able to survive long in life unless I somehow get famous bc let’s face it I’m never gonna have a “real career” or be satisfied with any job or be able to make a living by constantly working (but then again I don’t have any talent that can make me famous either oops)

Are you a restless sleeper? yeah more often than never :3)

Do you consider yourself a romantic person? aesthetically romantic, sometimes, but I identify as aro. Romance irl just feels wrong, like it doesn’t mix well with me, like when you put a certain metal in water and it explodes

Which element best represents you? Earth? Either earth or water

Who do you want to be closer to? “My favourite musicians ;(” <<stealing this too :c just all the Leppard bois pls

Do you miss someone at the moment? Nope

Tell us about an early childhood memory? I had a computer class in kindergarten, and I remember on the very first day of it, the teacher taught us what a floppy disc was when introducing us to all the parts of a computer. This was in 2006, and I still have yet to use one.

What is the strangest thing you’ve ever eaten? Probably chicken and waffle pringles, but dipped in chili (GOOD)

What are you most thankful for? the money I have in the bank (even tho I try not to touch it), my driver’s license, not having a job right now, my therapist, my music, my hamster, being surrounded by green

Have you ever met anyone famous? Yes, Rick Ray of Sunshine Allen :3 that’s it :’3

Do you keep a diary or journal? Nope, even tho my therapist told me that journaling my thoughts is a big help, I kinda don’t wanna go back to doing that

Do you prefer to use pen or pencil? Pen bc it flows easier

What is your star sign? Pisces

Do you like your cereal crunchy or soggy? Crunchy all the way, soggy cereal is a HUGE pet peeve of mine

What would you want your legacy to be? someone who was very interesting and did a lot of things

Do you like reading? What was the last book you read? honestly, reading is overrated. Even if the book is good, reading isn’t as hyped up as everyone on this site thinks it is. I do like reading sometimes, but I barely do. I read a lot in high school bc I had so much free time on my hands in class, but outside of school I can’t do it. The last book I read was a reread of The Princess Bride by William Goldman

How do you show someone you love them? *Lisa Simpson staring at plate* ??? Error 405??

Do you like ice in your drinks? yeah but not a lot. Maybe just one or two cubes to keep it cold but not to dilute it a lot

What are you afraid of? being stuck where I am forever, never escaping my family, never finding my path in life, whatever the hell is wrong with my mentality getting worse and impacting my life in a huge way, any health related problems, I could go on :3)

What is your favourite scent? Old Spice

Do you address older people by their name or surname? ...what exactly is this question asking? Depends on how casual I am with them/how well I know them

If money was not a factor, how would your life be different? I would NOT be living here that’s for damn sure :3) I would’ve been to so many different places by now and maybe I’d actually have a real life and actually BE an interesting person

Do you prefer swimming in pools or the ocean? pools, bc the ocean is too salty and choppy and doesn’t smell as good as chlorine imo

What would you do if you found $50 on the ground? “I’d pick it up, and if I saw the person who dropped it, I’d give it back to them” << true but then if i couldn’t find them then I’d probably go buy some records with it and put the change aside into my Concert Fund

What is one thing you’d want to teach your children? honestly I don’t think I’m ever gonna have kids, but I’d want them to understand that gender roles don’t exist, and neither do the opinions of society

If you had to get a tattoo right now, what and where would it be? ...I’m actually getting a tattoo next week... it’s going to be on the side of my right shoulder, a silhouette of a pine tree with an outline of a crescent moon above it

What can you hear now? The sound of the fridge runnin in the room behind me, my mom getting something out of a drawer

Where do you feel the safest? in my bedroom

What is one thing you want to overcome/conquer? whatever’s fucked up in my head like anxiety and trauma, etc

If you could travel back to any era in time, what would it be? if I had to travel back anywhere and stay there for the rest of my life, I’d probably go back 1979 to see the dawn of the 80s and live through them. If I had to go for a day then I’d probably pick the summer of 1988 or something

What is your most used emoji? probably 🤙

Describe yourself using one word? tough

What do you regret most? not going to see Def Leppard and Journey when they were less than an hour away 2 years ago. Yes, I couldn’t drive back then, so there was really no way I could’ve gotten there and back (and I could’ve BARELY gotten a floor ticket to begin with, it would’ve cost like half the money I had to my name), but with the Stadium Tour being delayed ANOTHER year I feel like 2 years ago was the only chance I’ll ever have had to see my favorite band :c so even though it was basically impossible for me to go, and a lot of the factors of that were out of my control, I still feel like I blew it, and wish I tried literally everything I possibly could’ve done (like just buy the ticket and figure out how to get there later, call everyone I could think of to try and hitch a ride). Even if I did so, there was still a VERY, VERY slim chance that I could’ve ended up going by some goddamned MIRACLE okay I’ll shut up now sorry I’m just still very upset even so much time later

Last movie you saw? in theaters? Rocketman last summer. In general? Uhhhhh I really don’t know, I think it was Love, Simon

Last TV show you watched? on tv? Rick and Morty. In general? I was watching The Young Ones on youtube today

Invent a word and it’s meaning? Scress (we actually made this up like 2 years ago)- it’s a game where you play chess on a Scrabble board while also playing Scrabble

What If The Classic Board Game 'Life' Was Suddenly A Video Game?

Think of it as a training ground for your real life.

Picture this. You are presented with a game title screen. The game's called LIFE. This game title screen is where you are born, or spawned rather. Metaphorically speaking, you 'Enter' (and not just the tip), and then for 9 months you have a loading screen. Loading... loading... loading...

Wait, it's about to start – it's at 99%. Loading... loading... loading. Wow, that's a long 99%. Boom. There you are - a n00b. Raring to go.

Think of this as a waiting period to get your Aadhar card for the game. Image source: youtube.com

Welcome to the MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) of LIFE. Skip tutorial? No can do. LIFE has a god-damned unskippable tutorial – 18 to 25 levels of tutorials (depending on how quick you are to learn). These tutorials will help you create, enhance and evolve your skills as a player. The first few levels are interactive cut scenes where you just see a lot of random things but can’t make sense of. You have no option now but to wait for the actual game to start. (LIFE? More like Half-Life 3.)

From level 3 onwards, you start to move around and interact with the environment, but you do not have enough skills to survive on your own. There are two other players you get to interact with on the limited map that is available to you. They're called 'Parent Players.' These players are available for your assistance to take you through the start of the first few tutorials of your life in LIFE. There may be a few cases where you have one such parent player or even none – let's notch this up to difficulty settings. Now, some of these parent players may not have farmed enough experience points in their "Parenting Skills" due to which the beginning stats for the game are really screwed up for you. In other words – Parent Players play a key role in how you start your game of LIFE. If they've played their own games well enough, and have upped their skill levels well enough, then you will start off well. You'll have a good base to grow from.

Always, always listen to your parents. Don’t be a rebel, or be one, it’s up to you. Image source: simsnetwork.com

When you reach level 5 or 6, you will unlock the 'Friendship' and 'Learning' skills. Now it really depends on you, how you farm more experience points in each of these spaces. I'm sure you've heard of players that may not have developed their learning skills, but are very good at the game. So, level 5 is where the real game begins.

Like in any other game, you have to go through the entire gameplay and not be a hacker in life. Hackers are the bad guys and trust me, you don't want to be one. Because hackers get banned from the server and once you're banned, you can NEVER PLAY AGAIN. The gameplay for the first 15 levels is really simple, all you have to do is go to this building on the map called 'School.' I know, weird name for a building. But you can't blame the developer for this, it's a game! You just have to spend 8 hours at this building, 5 days a week and you keep levelling up. Now there are 2 ways to enhance your experience here. You can either skip the cut scene where the 'Teacher' player speaks for 8 hours or for an immersive gameplay experience, you can actually go through the cut scenes and follow the story of your player. I suggest you keep a balance of both. It's important that you have a certain grip on the story of the game. There are also a few interactive side missions within the cut scenes called, "Exams.” (It is really like life.) It’s important that you play these 'Exam' side missions, as some of them are very important and may be a problem when you're trying to level up.

They say you miss school once it’s over, but not this one. Image source: simscommunity.info

Now this routine of school and exams goes on till level 15. Once you finish the first levels, the Parent Players will start making decisions for you and make you pick your tasks, which you will have to do for the rest of your life. You can fight them there and make your own decisions, but then you'll have to deal with an unnecessary boss battle. Pick your boss battles well.

Now taking into consideration that you're on the India map, you will be given a Doctor's task or an Engineer's task if you are a male character. If you're a female character, there is a very high possibility that you will be given a Chef's task – maybe not professionally, but as a forced side quest (yup discrimination). A Doctor has to heal all the other players when they are either injured in battle or have caught some digital virus during their game play. An engineer will have to build a few things for other players so that their in-game experience is better than it was. Think of them as in-game bug reporters. A Chef's task is to make this thing called "food". All, and I mean all players require food to survive in the game. You will have to do these tasks for in-game currency called "Money." There are several types of money, but on India's LIFE map, you'll earn "Rupees".

Level 15 through 25, you will realise, what you learned in the first 15 levels is useless and you now have unlocked a "Profession" meter. The better you are at this skill, the better stats you get and the better in-game experience. If you are good at your tasks, other players will be scared to fight you in the game as well. To enhance the profession skill, you will have to go to another building called, "College." But for college you will need something else... something you have to really pay for...

DLC – Downloadable Content.

This is where the skill level of your Parent Player matters – the better they are, the better DLC you get.

Let's get to the mid game now. This part generally takes place between levels 25 to 60. At these levels, you unlock a relationship meter which you are supposed to fill as your Parent Players will force you to play with another player of the opposite sex. You may be one of those players who would want to be with a player of the same gender, but on India's map this is illegal and the game will do its best to stop you. Throughout these levels your biggest focus will be filling the relationship meter and making more in-game currency.

When it comes to generating more in-game currency there are several ways to do this. The best way to do this is to exchange your play time for Rupees. I'm sure you must have noticed a few players in the game by now that are just running scripts. These players are AFK or ‘Away From Keyboard’ and are earning in-game currency to be a bot in their gameplay and not doing anything by themselves.

If you're one of the players that is willing to figure out ways to generate in-game currency by yourself, well, good luck. Most players on the Indian map have taken the easy way out by doing what their parent players have assigned them to do. While figuring this out, you will also have to figure out what you want to be as a character. Do you want your character to have a lot of in-game currency? Do you want to focus on your relationship meter more? Or do you want to max out on a certain skill set to be the best at that? There is no right way to play here, since these are the levels where the game is opened up to you and your decisions shape the way the game goes on. Most players on the Indian map usually give all their in-game currency to the newly spawned players that they are assigned to and help these players out by being their Parent Players. Like most MMORPGs, it may take a while to finish, but make sure you enjoy the gameplay without ruining it for others.

Now the mid game goes on till level 60 where the top players of the game tell you not to perform your task anymore and "Retire." These tops players are the rule makers of a map and they've named themselves the "Government." They're usually fair, but don't mess with them. Their high level skills and support from other players from the map makes them very strong to defeat and at most times, you will lose.

At level 60, there is a very high possibility that you will have a lot of in-game currency and now you will be able to enhance the skills that you have wanted to enhance. The problem at the end game levels is that your character starts to encounter a lot of bugs which limits the movement of the player and starts decreasing the health bar. This is because it’s an MMORPG and with as many as 1.2 billion players on the map, the servers focus on the newly spawned players more since these players are more likely to buy the downloadable content than you are.

On the Indian map, most players have a 100% relationship meter by this level, usually because they are scared to fight each other since it may cause their social meter to lose experience points. For some reason, the social meter is the most important for the players on the Indian map. With all the in-game currency you have saved, you can go explore the map more and if you have enough, maybe even unlock other maps like America or Russia. These places are very expensive but if you have enough, you can explore that as well.

Around level 75, you'll start encountering a lot of bugs and eventually your screen will turn blank and that's the end of the game. Most players wonder what happens when the game ends. Some say that the good players go to a place where there are only good levels that a character likes and they can play them forever. Others say it's an endless void of nothingness till you buy another game. Some even say you respawn as another player. It doesn't really matter though.

What does matter is that you have a GG (Good Game) all through LIFE. And that you'll never, ever be salty. No matter what LIFE throws at you.

That’s life!
