As I usually do, here’s a group shot of the team:

BRUJO DÃAZ
Rodrigo DÃaz Icaza Aguilar CuarónBio: Brujo Diaz is a renowned mystic based in Los Angeles, part of a large network of magic-users who defend innocents against the darker forces of the craft. He is a friend and contact of Ishmerai. A Chicano born and raised in LA, Rodrigo comes from a long line of brujos, his father and grandfather having been clandestine defenders of the city back in the day. He was trained by the patriarchs of his family to carry on the title of Brujo, but his raw natural talent makes him a more skilled sorcerer than they ever were. He is the first to practice the craft out in the open. Rodrigo cares a great deal about his community and, when not pre-occupied with fighting the forces of darkness, he fights for causes of equality and social justice, a politically minded vigilante.
Abilities: Brujo DÃaz is a very skilled practitioner of magic. He has natural psychometric talents and an ability to attune his perceptions to other supernatural energies, able to see things as they are, not as they appear to be. He has developed a particular subset of magic he dubs “Urban Mysticism” that allows him to commune with urban spaces. The city reveals its secrets to him, and aids him when it can. He wears shin bracers adorned with feathers, hiding rows of shells that shake with his every step. The shells are enchanted to vibrate at frequencies damaging to dark magics, causing supernatural creatures intense pain. His tattoos are ritually empowered to diffuse malevolent spells, ward off curses, and protect him from harmful intentions.In his most powerful application of magical energy, Brujo DÃaz can tap into the power of the divine, assuming aspects of various Aztec deities. The specific skills and deity he summons depends on the day according to the Aztec Calendar on which he invokes them.
He also has an established familiar in the form of a hyper-intelligent crow, dubbed José Cuervo. He shares a telepathic link with the bird, as it soars through the cityscape keeping him updated on its happenings.

DiCicatrizParticipantHey, everybody! Been a bit. I have some new ideas brewing, but haven’t had a lot of time to implement them. Keeping practice with some redesigns of my elemental team. Here’s a bunch of them.
NAGARE – Champion of the Deep (Kaito Kaneko -former Japanese pro-surferPossesses hydrokinetic abilities, can breathe underwater, highly durable body.)
ORKAAN – Champion of the Aether (Edda Vos – Dutch commercial pilot granted aerokinetic abilities, flight, enhanced sight/hearing)
JAIR – Champion of the Incandescence (Asher Agassi – former Israeli firefighter, granted pyrokinesis and an immunity to heat and flame)
MANTLE – Champion of the Firmament (Ethan Somersby – Coal miner’s son from West Virginia. Given geokinetic abilities, houses body in hulking earthen exoskeleton)
http://i1126.photobucket.com/albums/l607/DiCicatriz/Elementals/MANTLE.pngFRYSTA – Champion of the Frigid (Einar Gunnarsson – Icelandic research assistant left to die in the frozen wastes of Antarctica by his insane employer. Granted cryokinetic abilities, a frozen heart that deadens his emotions.

LegatusParticipantThese characters are absolutely freakin’ fantastic!
July 1, 2014 at 9:31 am #41712
DiCicatrizParticipantThanks, Legatus!
Reposting SELVA, I must have lost some important text in all my copy/pasting…
SELVA – Champion of the Verdant (Identity Unknown – Indigenous Amazonian, vastly powerful chlorokinetic abilities)
This one’s a little different as this is not SELVA herself. She remains rooted into the oasis of green she created in the Amazon. But she can create constructs like this one, made of sentient plant matter, and project her consciousness and abilities through them.

VampyristParticipantThey’re fantastic!

livewyre1014ParticipantLikin’ the elemental series you got going on…nice work.
July 2, 2014 at 2:49 pm #41788
StulteParticipantBrilliant work! Visiting your thread is always a joy.
July 8, 2014 at 10:28 pm #42115
DiCicatrizParticipantThanks for the kind words guys! I haven’t had much of a chance to get some other work done, but I thought I’d add to my previous character Brujo DÃaz by whipping up some quick companions for him.
http://i1126.photobucket.com/albums/l607/DiCicatriz/Other/Saviors/Brujo%20Diaz/DIAZ_GROUP.png
These are Brujo’s partners in his quest to protect the city of Los Angeles from supernatural threats as well as in life. (Bit of an unorthodox grouping: Brujo is in a polyamorous relationship with both of them. They are sealed to each other spiritually through ancient ritual and sacrifice and together form a triumvirate marriage and coven.)
More info for those interested:
NANO DÃAZ
Ignacio Diaz Flores e Icaza
Bio: Nano is from a burgeoning subset of mystics known colloquially as ‘cybermages’. The ability to consciously absorb and manipulate information streams has existed since the Dark Ages, but in this modern era the magic itself is adapting to new forms of information, wireless signals, binary code, etc. When his abilities first manifested, the constant influx of data nearly drove him insane. Brujo found him in an asylum and took him in, helping him hone his abilities. They fell in love and Nano has been by his side ever since. He is the lore master of the group, with an eidetic memory and working knowledge of most supernatural creatures and ritual. Nano is not a very capable physical combatant, but will throw himself into mortal peril without hesitation in order to protect those he loves.
Abilities:Nano is able to bend information streams to his will, hacking into computer systems, learning through psychic osmosis (instantaneously realizing and retaining large volumes of information). He is able to channel magical energies, but only through ritual and in very structured and well prepared pathways. It doesn’t come effortlessly, naturally the way it does for Brujo.IXCHEL DÃAZ
Maria Elena Ixchel Diaz Garcia
Bio: Ixchel is what’s known as a sensitive. Her body and soul resonate at a frequency attuned to certain magical energies. Not enough to make her able to wield magical energies, quite the opposite in fact. Any magic that comes into contact tends to fluctuate and not function properly. This gives her a slight degree of immunity to spells, and allows her to see through illusions. Her status as a sensitive and her inability to wield magic is somewhat shameful to her family, the Garcias being a long line of sorcerers and seers. She was a childhood friend of Brujo’s, who came back into contact with him when they worked together on a case. She stuck around as a consultant and despite her initial misgivings, became the third to Brujo and Nano’s budding family. She is the enforcer of the group, hot-headed and fiercely protective.
Abilities: Ixchel’s body interferes with the resonance frequencies of various kinds of magics, giving her an immunity to a number of enchantments/spells/curses/hexes. She can also perceive beyond magic-based illusions. Her body is in top athletic form and she has trained herself as a wildly talented martial artists.
