CharacterPersonality: Roach is driven by compulsion. When his mind comes up with something for him to do, he does it; be it jump behind a couch, or eat his cousin. Beneath these compulsive actions stands a deep intellectual who has an almost gentlemanly, business like quality; when he is not trying to get you to mate with him, that is. He is very fond of doing impressions, and practices them regularly; because of this, he will often seem like one person to one person, and a totally different person to another.
Hobbies/ Interests:He likes to go to coffee shops and sip a dark brew while reading the paper… Also, bombing extermination agencies is a regular pass time.
Job or part time job and description: Out of work actor
Fears/ phobias/ concerns: He is lonely… He ate his family, after all.
Special talents: Impressions: Because of his many articulators, he can mimic almost any voice, be it male, female, old, young… This requires weeks of practice per voice, but once he gets it down, you can’t tell the difference. He has learned how to build pipe bombs via the web.
MoralityGood/ bad/ neutral/ other: Well… He has his tiffs with certain groups, but he is otherwise neutral… aww, who am I kidding? He’s an evil little sucker.
MutationsMutation description:Pulling a Kafka- Roach is gifted with a natural affinity for his cockroach cousins. They are generally attracted to him, and will not skitter off when he enters the room, like they do for most people; in fact, they will head toward him. Because of this, he tends to collect them. He can hold hundreds of little cockroaches in the housings between his hard back shell, and soft wings. Roach does not have control over them, though… He can only convince his fellow roaches to do something, and ask that they will comply.
This isn’t the only way he can interact with them, though… He can also inject the same catalyst that his body produces to give him his roach-like qualities into them, causing them to grow in both size and intelligence.
This process has three levels.
The first is the level of curious intelligence: Roach injects the small cockroach with the catalyst, and over the next few weeks it will grow slightly in size, but greatly in intelligence. Because of the change in size, it can no longer fly, but as a trade off, it can communicate with roach via a series of hisses and clicks. There is a 25% death rate for roaches who begin this process, and roach can only make three a month. These roaches can also act as generals for the rest of his cousins; they are able to order them around and make them do things.
The second level is the creation of a minionite: Roach injects a creature that is already past level one, and it grows greatly in size, to about the size of an infant. It does not grow in intelligence, but is able to use tools, and has a thick carapace that only a solid, strong blow can break. If these creatures are injured, they tend to die before too long, as neither them, nor Roach have the ability to heal from any wound. This has a 75 % death rate, and takes a month to fully complete.
Level three, the theft of body: Roach does this if he has been injured, or knows he is soon to die. He injects a normal cockroach with a concoction of the catalyst, and DNA from his own brain(He must puncture his skull in order to retrieve this). After this his current body only has a few hours to live; and the little roach skitters off to go grow into a whole new roach, with all of his memories up until the point of injection. This has a 100 percent success rate, but takes two weeks, and is very taxing on roach; not to mention the risk of the little guy getting crushed before he is fully grown, thus killing Roach altogether.
Strengths: Roach gains the ability to communicate with the roaches he has injected.
Roaches in great numbers are very dangerous.
He can create new bodies for himself by sacrificing an old one.
Weaknesses: Roach does not have control over his roaches; he has to convince them to do things for him.
Roaches are still just that, and can be squished; if he loses all of his level one or two roaches he cannot speak to his many normal cousins.
He cannot heal from even the slightest wound; he can only bandage it, and wait for a chance to make a new body.
Secondary mutation description: Roachlike appearance and affects. Roach has a hard carapace that can stand up to baseball bat swings and the like, though his joints are more fragile than his hard shell. Because his limbs operate on a hydraulic system, he is gifted with incredible strength, enough to tip over a car on his own, and he does not experience the wear and tear that humans do; he also cannot improve in strength through traditional means; instead he has to eat well and thrive in order to gain strength over time. He is able to climb walls thanks to his barbed limbs, though he cannot sneak because he makes a noticeable clacking sound as he walks. His middle arms are sharp and dangerous, though they are frail and easier to break.
Strengths: He has a hard shell that can withstand baseball bat blows.
He has added strength and endurance.
His limbs are strong.
Weaknesses:His joints are fragile, and can injured easily.
He cannot ‘work out’ to grow in strength.
Once his shell is broken, it won’t heal. If he leaves it unhealed for too long he will get an infection, get sick, and die.
Fighting Style Explanation: Sick a bunch of his comrades on them, and if all else fails, ditch your current body and fake your own death.
Pros for fighting style:He is rather versatile.
Cons for fighting style:He isn’t much of a hand to hand fighter, though he can throw a fridge at you, he would much rather run than put up his dukes.

History Of Your CharacterRoach was born in the new York slums, and lived there most of his life while putting himself through acting classes. He was always a hard worker, never really did what he wanted with his life. He was always the provider for his sickly parents and brothers and sisters; working hard for them in any position he could find, while slowly giving up on his dream to be a Broadway star. He went on working for his family until one day he turned into a giant cockroach. The rest is history.

Sample RP:One morning, as Greg Samson was waking up from anxious dreams, he discovered that he was… still a normal human being. For some reason that felt odd… He got up slowly from his sleep, and sauntered over to his bathroom, rubbing the sleep from his eyes as he went… Perhaps he rubbed too hard, because they simply slid right from his face… The man slowly looked up at the mirror to find that he was, indeed, eyeless… at least his normal eyes were gone, and behind them stood a new set. He smiled a little bit at his bloated reflection… He had been feeling strange as of late, and had puffed up like a balloon… He’d been too busy working to pay the rent to have time to visit the doctor, after all he had his parents and siblings to feed. None of them had jobs, so life was rough.
He absent mindedly spit out a tooth, and then, as if it was an everyday routine, began to peel off his face. Sparing the more fine and stomach churning details, he was soon smiling into the window with a brand new face… a Roachy face filled with lovely sharp pokeys and everything. He liked it. “My my, who is that fine looking gentleman in the mirror there? I dare say he could be considered quite handsome.”He tittled off in a faux british accent as he winked his big buggy eyes at his reflection, and then got to peeling off the rest of his pesky flesh.
Soon he was sitting in the living room, reading the paper and sipping a good cup of Joe… The rest of his family had yet to wake up; they always slept in, so he had some spare time. It was the only time of the day he had away from his nagging parents and his needy sister.
He heard a high pitched scream. Mother was up, and she had seen him… He felt the odd urge to eat her; he did. My, she was tasty! He decided upon some deliberation to eat the rest of his family as well… they might be sore about him eating mum otherwise. He couldn’t bother with that. He ate them instead.
Finally, he sat once more, his belly full, his chitin hands once again grasping the news paper, a steaming cup of Joe at his side… He sighed and mused aloud to himself. “Oh dear… It’s just dawned on me that I could use a room mate.”
