The Outside and the In


Face Claim/PB



That is Andrew Bryniarski from the Lobo Paramilitary Christmas Special. Best representation I could find in live action. I want him to look basically the same as this. Human, but... not quite.



That is Lobo from Young Justice.

Appearance: 

Lobo wears a biker jacket, leather pants held up by a massive skull belt, and biker boots. All of which is adorned in massive amounts of weaponry and decorations, along with a translator hooked to his belt that allows him to understand, and speak, any language (in a rather deep voice!). He wields chains and loads of cigars. Lobo has red eyes surrounded by a strange black pattern, along with black dreadlocks. He also claims a rather manly goatee. He's quite buff, he lift (up to several tons on a good day). He's about 6'4 after being shifted.


Personality: Lobo is... well, Lobo is a disturbed individual. He's not quite right in either side of the brain. He's killed everyone in his species except him. He likes to fight and kill and main and slaughter and all those nasty things. 

He's also rather silly. Everything he does is in the most over the top fashion possible. Shoot someone? Shoot them with a bullet that has been modified to explode into 100 different bullets on impact. Eating? Eat all of the food. All of it. He wants to have fun and go crazy, and he does.

Lobo is both completely stupid and a genius at the same time. It's hard to tell with all the dumb things he does, but he does have a brain under than brawn. He can figure a way into and out of everything, and the weaknesses of what he's up against.

He's not perfect, however. The mention of space dolphins will end whatever he is doing. Any conversation will be derailed into a conversation about space dolphins. He also always keeps his word, always. Even if it means he suffers, he'll do it. Lobo also has quite the smoking addiction. You'll almost never see him with no cigar in his mouth. Cigars that he lights with a gun that breathes fire. He's pretty hardcore.

Finally, he's a bit arrogant. He thinks he can do anything, takes orders on how to do things from no one, and doesn't listen anyone but his employer (and sometimes not even then). There's a few individuals he'll listen to occasionally, but don't count on it.

Oh, and before I forget, he doesn't use *real* swear words. He'll use almost badwords and insult you a lot. And has an arsenal of made up words at his disposal in turn for real ones, his favorites being frag and variations of it and bastich. He also never shuts up.

Right Up to that Key Moment

History:

Oh boy, here we go.

Lobo was born in Czarnia, a paradise that knew no war and everyone was pretty much immortal. Then he was born. The nurse that delivered him went insane from how evil he was. He went through Czarnian Elementary, Middle, and some of Czarnian High School before the Science Project started. He made a bunch of scorpion monsters that killed everything on the planet except him, making him the last of his kind. He gave himself an A.

Since then, he has been drifting the cosmos, killing people, kidnapping people, getting sick clothes. He even got kicked out of Heaven and Hell, so he's basically not going anywhere anytime soon. He's had some crazy times, even killed Santa Claus for the Easter Bunny.

Now then, in Young Justice, Lobo was paid to kidnap a nasty Krolotean disguised as Tseng Dangun by an unknown party. Batgirl and Wondergirl attempted to stop him, but the main man was far too strong. He reached the Krolotean attempting to escape. Before Batgirl or Wondergirl could stop him, Lobo had ripped off the disguise quite gruesomely. He then grabbed the Krolotean and rode his bike to his reward.
Key Moment: Lobo was riding through the heavens above on his bike, smoking a cigar somehow, heading to his reward for the Krolotean. Then, his bike was driving away on it's own and Lobo was gone.

A Roleplaying Shift

RP Sample:

"Aw frag, did I fall asleep?"

The alien rubbed his red eyes, yawned, and got up. It appeared he had landed on Earth in a suburban neighborhood. Maybe he had a bunch of drinks and then passed out? That was certainly something he'd do.

"Where'd I put that frog lookin' thing..." he said, puzzled.

The main man searched his pockets, only finding chains, his extra keys, and tons of cigars. Tons. Oh, and a picture of his mom. Why did he kill her again? Oh well. 

"Little bastitch ran off. Gotta find the frag-"

A women in a black suit appeared, from quite literally nowhere, and put her hand on his shoulder.

"Hello there, sir. Welcome to-"

"Hands off the goods, lady," the alien said, pushing her away.

"Sir, I'm trying to help-" she said, a little uncomfortable.

"Don't need it, bastitch. I need to get back to my client or I lose my bonus,"

The main man pulled out his keys, and called for his bike.

"Come on, sweetie! I don't got all fraggin' day!"

"Sir, you can't leave. I'm afraid you've been-"

"I'm going,"

As Lobo whistled while waiting for a ride, the woman stood there, deciding on what to do.

"Sir, you're not where you're from anymore. You're in a new world. New starts, new faces. We're trying our best to get you back to where you belong, but we hope this is comfortable enough for you,"

Lobo finally took in his surroundings. This was not somewhere he knew. The grass was weird, the sky was weird, the houses were weird, and this lady was weird. A solid 7/10. Well, everything wasn't weird. It looked right. But it wasn't. Do you know what I'm saying?

"So... where the frag am I then?"

"Tenebree estates. We hope we enjoy your stay,"

The woman then disappeared.

"But... wait! Who the frag are "we"? Where the frag is my bike? WHAT THE FRAG IS YOUR NUMBER?"

In the midst of this panic, only now did he notice he wasn't quite Czarnian anymore. No no, now he was a typical human. His skin was no longer made of diamond hard material, no, it was flesh and bone, but tattooed white as snow. His eyes were a different shape, and were not 100% red, but simply a red iris with a black pupil. The muscle mass had decreased immensely, and he had stepped down a few inches. His dreadlocks didn't feel right anymore. His heart pumped at a different pace and his blood felt colder, and his stomach didn't feel like it was truly bottomless anymore. How did he not notice this until now? He's bad at reality checks.

"CAN I GET A FRAGGIN' BREAK!?!?!"

He looked to sky, and gave a dramatic scream, down on his knees, arms in the airs, tears in his eyes.

Tell us a Little About Yourself!: That's not normally how I post, but I am BAD at RPing with myself. I am Nicholas, from parts unknown. I actually found this from RPG Directory but that sounded better. I wanted to RP Lobo for a long time and this looked like fun. I've been RPing for about 3 or 4 years.

Sorry if I didn't do this all right, I'm quite tired.

[Deleted]

Well, this is done.

Do I get a Gold Star for trying? Any major problems?

[Fate]

Hey, Nicholas, we've actually already read over your application, and there are a few things that we wanted to express some concern over.

First, we want to emphasize that the Shifting essentially turns a person into a human. Anyone who Shifts is thus transferred and becomes a human. while your abilities and some nonhuman traits may come back in time, you are, for the duration of your time here, fully human. So you'd have to make sure to construct Lobo as losing his alien genealogy and becoming human. He is still Lobo, still the Main Man with that history and attitude, but he has lost the rest.

Also, we were slightly curious as to why you went with Young Justice for your canon. While Lobo does appear in that canon, he plays a bit part. Considering that he has an entire arc in Justice League and appears more frequently in the Superman cartoons, we're wondering why you didn't go with them. It's fine if you want to use Young Justice as his canon, we'd just need a very definite reason for why you're choosing that variation of the characters as opposed to others (and this would likely have to be beyond "I haven't seen the others" as Lobo receives more development in them and Justice League at the least is easy to get a hold of and watch). For an example of this, look to the Loki application. Raucous picked Ultimate Spider-Man because he saw a variation of the character present within that canon that he specifically wanted to emphasize and focus upon. We'd need reasoning of that nature for the odd canon choice.

Finally, we'd like to remind you that we require at least a few paragraphs on personality. It's clear that you have a pretty solid understanding of the character, but we need you to expand on that in the personality. It needs to be at least a couple of solid paragraphs, again, per the statement in the application.

[Deleted]

I'll try and fix those problems.

The reason I picked Young Justice is because I assume there will be more Young Justice canon characters who would sign up here. More ensuing hilarity. It also gave me a bit more freedom, and I like the design from Young Justice more than previous animated designs.

I know he's human. I was trying to say, though maybe I failed to, that he is indeed not the last of any race anymore. I was attempting to say he looked like someone with full body tattoos and not nearly as beefy. And probably lung cancer. I'll remove the red eyes, though, since I wasn't thinking about the fact that no human being has red eyes without contacts or eye tattooing.

I'm not the best at the personality sections, as you may see. But I'll try.

Edit: Also, the LA pic looked ugly as an avatar, so this is just a filler until I find another.
