Main Power Origins:Natural

Powers
Pagemaster is the physical representation of Victorian and steampunk literature he is part of a race of cosmic beings that call themselves Pagemasters after their creator The Pagemaster.

They love to effect the world around them by bringing the scenery, people and items from books into the real world. They however are very careful with how they use this ability as if they were to go too far with it they could destroy the entire cosmos.

By the laws that govern them as a race Pagemasters are not allowed to bring a full book into existence outside the creative realm were everything from books meld together and stories are born. They are able to turn the length of a city street or a single building floor if inside into a scene described from a book. They tend to use this when something surpasses their current skill level technology wise or for ease of access to things like turning a high-tech safe into a older model to get inside it. When bringing items from stories it has been noted that there seems to be a tier like system.

Tier 1- harmless items like bandages things for treatments and small animals that can not cause permanent harm like starfish flies misquotes housecats marbles toys that are not enchanted beyond entertaining kids.

Tier 2- seem to be the most commonly used in a fight at least with the current known Pagemaster. This tier includes most non named daggers, swords, and firearms with no special properties. Most creatures from this tier are scorpions that vary in size up to the size of a German shepherd, wolves, bears etc the occasional trouble causing monsters like imps, hellhounds of your average large dog breeds. The amount of things from this tier vary. Toys that change in size to no bigger than a garden gnome and weapons like the nutcracker's rifle become real. Pagemaster tends to only ever summon a hand held weapon shield and maybe a wolf or other creature at a single time from this tier.


Tier 3- This is the final tier as far as anyone has been able to tell this includes some of the most notable times from certain books like brisnger and Excalibur most weapons appear to have some type of enchantment on them at this tier the creatures that are in this tier grow to the size of car and also tend to have a elemental spin on them like cobra that can breath fire or a wolf that howl freezes things in its path. It has been noted that there has only been one item from this tier out at a time.

It has also been noted that the use a weapon from the top tier  pagemaster  has always been lacking his cane and that he does not use his page powers on these weapons as they seem to incompatible when asked about it.

Another ability of the Pagemasters is the ability to give life to any book they come across. How they do this is unique to each Pagemaster. The current Pagemaster that resides in jump city does this by playing a flute or violin depending on his mood.

A careful study of the books was made several months ago. The books that are given life may grow up to human height the tallest recorded being 7ft tall and reminiscent of Frankenstein possibly the very book itself. Almost all books tend to stay their original size. Their combat and other areas of expertise effectiveness seemed to be determined by their subject matter. A good example of this was when a scientist did a study on combat effectiveness with several types of books the book on vaults and everyday life did very poorly compared to the books on pirates, knights, and thieves. Though some could surprise you when angered.

Another study was also done regarding the books durability. Hardback books have the stronger durability compared to paperback. While hardback books are able to withstand several firearms of a lesser calabur of a shotgun to a extent, paperbacks tend to be easily destroyed by any means. It is interesting to note that the hardbacks do have a couple of very exploitable weakness they share with paperbacks swords or anything that can cut or shred can surpass their natural durability. The second being elemental or energy based attacks can easily destroy them.

While appearances of these books vairy they all tend to follow a tier system that is based more on their type and abilities.

Tier 1- This is most commonly known as the cannonfodder tier and tends to be the most common when large amounts of them are summoned

Fantasy books are able to shoot energy out of wands or staffs

Adventure have their swords and a grape shot revolver

Horror books tend to have a enhanced strength and low intelligence. They have been known to rip up fire hydrants with their bare hands or a car door off it's hinges.

Tier 2- These tend to be the smarter than the tier 3 and tend to be runners and group leaders when large numbers are summoned though their numbers are smaller than the tier 3 group.

Fantasy books are able to shoot engery out of wands and staffs with random effects from putting Their target in clothes they are most uncomfortable in to placing objects in people's paths

Adventure may have swords bows and arrows and maces their grapshot revolver has more than one shot a max of three

Horror gets a strength increase they are now able to lift the car entirely and have a hypnotic  touch that zombiefies civilians. They however must remain in contact with that person so they tend to ride on their shoulder

Their numbers seem to be one for every five tier 3 in large groups.

Tier 3- seem to have the most powerful abilities and there only ever seems to be three books ever summoned at time when Pagemaster feels he needs to be doing something else other than fighting directly like if he was trying to medically treat someone. one of each type is ever summoned at this level and rarely are they ever together. these three books always seem to be the ones to pass on pagemasters orders to the rest.  Almost like generals of a army when in large groups

Fantasy books at this tier tend to be able to pull out enchanted potions and magic carpets from their pages they tend to assist pagemaster with helping others and covering him as he does his work by using their energy beams or shields, the beams are only able to produce enough force to feel like a strong punch and shields are able to stand extended  small fire arms for about 3 minutes before shattering

Adventure also seems to have this ability but is more centered around pulling out things like cannons brass knuckles and other weapons. Their revolver tends to hold six shots and are skilled with their swords

Horror is noted to be the one to most strongest at this tier they can lift weights up to  twelve tons. They also have some skill in necormancey and can expell a strange mist that can effect others though they have never used these in battle with heros or villains except under commands. They seem to lack the intelligence to strategically use these abilities or pagemaster has restricted their use of this ability.

It is noted that tier 3 books have been the only ones that are willing to change their size in most cases.

Perhaps the most interesting of Pagemasters abilities comes from him channeling what he calls creative energy to move on any surface he so chooses including air or water. Pagemaster has also shown that he uses this energy to enhance his weapons for short burst in direct battle. How this is done by wrapping a sheet of paper that Pagemaster gains by touching his opponent while channeling said energy. This has the effect of negating any enhanced durability against his sword and pistol. A proper example of this ability would be one of his nets they tend to take on elemental or metal properties if the target is weak against it.  Pagemaster also has the ability of using a journal to attack with he can place the page he gains from a enemy in it and send out a energy beam from his hands the range however is small max range of 12 ft.

This ability also seems to have a natural restriction with the known Pagemaster of jump city he can only use one page at a time and it only seems to last for about three strikes, before the page burns away and a new one must be created. It has been said from eye witness accounts that there is a cool down period of three strikes after a page burns till another can be created.

Being a embodiment of literature pagemaster can speak and understand all languages that have a system for writing if none exist he can not understand it. The final way Pagemaster uses his power is to right things after causing all the chaos by restoring everyone that is harmed to perfect health and any property destroyed fixed any money stolen by associates pulled from his accounts from banks etc and a book is left behind titled The Pagemaster. However all memories of the events stick with those effected during the events.

Abilities
Elemental protection: Pagemaster is protected from the effects of the elements that weaken him as long as they are natural or not being used to attack. With the exception of fire if others are not in danger(see mental weakness)

Shapeshift: For the purpose of escaping or information gathering pagemaster can shapeshift into a teen, a random goon, or an indistinct object that those chasing after him will most likely overlook.


Oozeifcation: When needing to get through something can turn into more of an ink blob that can move around and through cracks and crevices if it is airtight he can not get into it.


Physical Weaknesses
Made of ink: while his abilities keep him from falling apart in the rain or drying to dust in actual combat those with any sort of elemental power have an advantage over Pagemaster as they could dry him out turn him into a puddle polarize him to where he can't focus.
While physical attacks will not truly harm him they can tear apart his body. Firearms are only really effective if they have high firepower to be anything below shotgun shell power-wise has little effect but still annoying.

Breaking his cane: If you take his cane all powers are lost till it is recovered. If you break it causes pagemaster and it to turn into sheets of paper and returns him back to the creative realm.

Nth metal: While his powers are not affected by this metal his body is it will literally eat away at his body leaving a severe level hole in his body if hit twice with this stuff it will destablize his body composition completely and return it to normal ink.


Mental Weaknesses
Afraid of fire: Pagemaster is extremely afraid of fire so much so that around it he starts to bubble as if being boiled even near a match while he can work with fire when working on chemistry or use his protection to help those trapped by fire if he is by himself he is more than likely to dry himself out, out of fear.

Natural curiosity: When it comes to his fields of study if he can do a test on it he will and a lot of times he attempts it right then and there stoping whatever he may be doing even if it is important.

Equipment
magic wallet: A wallet that is always full of money and makes it where all Pagemaster's paperwork is in order. It can be stolen but if it is all information on pagemaster  vanishes money stays and will return to pagemaster in five or so minutes.

cane/staff: Pagemaster’s cane can be a normal walking cane or a long bo staff while it can change to any feet necessary to get where he needs to go he can only attack with it at bo staff length. As a cane the wolf head can be removed to pull out a short sword pistol mix the pistol part can hold up to six bullets at a time and will auto-refill after fifteen seconds of the last shot being fired pagemaster can shoot a total of twelve rounds then he is out for the rest of thread unless agreed upon by other rper/s that more may be granted.

Flying journal and pen: Pagemaster has enchanted a journal to follow him in battle to write what he needs for elemental attacks by ripping out a page he can then cast what is on the page.

The following books
Alice in wonder
Treasure Island
The strange case Dr.jekal and Mr.Hyde



Personality
Pagemaster is a person that likes to see the world as shades of grey. He adores those that write from the heart and loves to see their stories come to life in the creative realm. He is slow to anger and quick with a sarcastic retort. He sticks to his own code of conduct and will not deviate from it. He dislikes it when others take his actions as being evil as his race must play both hero and villain. He loves kids and will do whatever he can to help them though when in villain state he tends to go about this in a strange way by causing havoc until the kid's goal is accomplished. Pagemaster is always one for a conversation with just about anyone, even enemies he may even sit down to tea with them in the middle of battle just because he can. One of his favorite hobbies is surprising people with his actions. He is also an avid learner especially when it comes to chemistry if you can purpose a experiment he may just stop whatever it is he is doing and go try it.

Place of Origin:creative realm

History
John like all pagemasters came into existence the moment a race came up with a story idea and the hands of the first Pagemaster. He and his race were given a task and that was to make sure no written word is ever truly lost and to inspire new tales of their given genre and help kids find courage in the creative realm . Pagemaster was always diligent in his duties. However, he lacked a true sense of purpose as he felt stifled by his role in the early days of steampunk till he met his future wife  tina who was the second steampunk creation of women heros and villains came into existence.

Things was going well till the blackgate fisaco originated by a couple characters of forgotten books that had no end as they were never finished or did not like how they ended, in which they tried to force their stories to be completed or change it in some way. This caused mass chaos in the creative realm causing several pagemaster to be erased from existence forcing others to take on the duties of the ones that existences were erased.

This is what sends John to the teen titan universe as it is one of the areas that is closest to the creative realm and if something goes wrong it could spill over into the creative and start another blackgate.

John finished stood looking at his suite case he had to make sure he had everything packed or time would have his head if she had to go into a "modern" zone as she refered to jump just because he forgot his top hat bringing his gloved hand to his lips John muttered to himself ,"Let me see here. I got my spare suite, my Journal, assortment of chemical analysis data from the past month. What am I missing?"

John looked up when the door opened and smiled when he saw it was his wife carrying their mid afternoon snack and a fresh pot of tea. John quickly grabbed one of the fresh chocolate covered scones that was their typical dessert and ate it before Tina could scold him or worse yet take the scone. He smiled as she glared at him before taking the tray from her and giving her a peck on the cheek. Setting the tray down at their corner table in the room John asked, "So where did you end up being assigned to, dear?"

Tina groaned before saying, "Some ocean based world at least it isn't a modern type place. You?"

John laughed,"I got one of the modern worlds with superheros in it."

At this Tina gave a sympathetic look and said, " I do not envy you how are you going to stand all that pollution?"

John took several more scones and a roast beef sandwich and said, "I am going to be in a ink body thank God for that." Pulling out his watch John added, "After we finish lunch mind helping me finish packing I think I may be missing something but can't place what. You have always been better at it than me any ways."

Seeing her nod as she was busy chewing said, "Grand, then we shall have a three hours to ourselves before we go. would you like to go to the oprea house till then? They are playing a german number you will love."

Ready to be looked at.

I really like this character idea. That being said, we need to trim off some of the fat here.

All being considered, you have about ten different powers altogether. While here, we don't typically accept more than five or six on an application.

We need to town down the scaling of the powers, because while some characters might, not every character can deal with something the size of a skyscraper, or a letter the size of a building.

Abilities are supposed to be the physical equivalent of your skills. Like strength and speed feats. But the ink physiology stuff could also go there.

Feel free to hash this out with me on Discord.

Bump

Sorry for the incredibly long wait.
