"Warren. Eddie...Yeah, I keep hearing a lot about you." Warren said, flexing his fingers. "Your name kept popping up whenever anyone asked if I played. Oh, Come in." He added, waving Eddie over. He was surprised that Eddie was what ammonted to a walking, talking sound system. Thought the man that could theoretically destroy a building with a kazoo... "Thanks man. Been practicing for years. Nice song collection by the way."
-
Warren was just left blinking at the sight of his neighbor rushing in and playing a host of songs at random. All he could do was stare and just wonder: Didn't I lock the door? Oh right, I didn't. Gotta remember to do that.... He raised his hand slowly and wiggled his fingers. "Starting to get a cramp in my fingers. Makes it harder to play." Warren said with a shrug. "Didn't have the chance to warm up before you started..."
-
Warren leaned back and listened. "...Oh damn." He muttered. His fingers were starting to cram up slightly from constant playing and not having so much as a minute to take a break. And now, whoever was playing music next door had moved all the way back up to Dream Theater. He banged his fist against the wall and amplified his voice loud enough to be hear.. "OK man, you win. Admitting defeat here."
-
Warren quirked an eyebrow as he tossed his completely eaten up guitar pick at the opposite wall. Muse? You went from Halen to them? He shook his head. He was never a big fan of that band. Even less when coming off a song that good. "Well then, looks like I'm gonna have to fix that." [groove]21193582[/groove]

Warren chuckled quietly. So now you want a challenge? You got it. He said with a grin as he changed the tune of his guitar once again. He cracked his knuckles, pulled out a spare guitar pick from his bag and took a deep breath. He did not want to snap another set of strings playing this. He wondered briefly what was going to be pulled out next, but that was pushed out of his mind as he started playing once more. [groove]21193481[/groove]

Warren let off a low whistle. He have to admit it, his neighbor did have some nice taste in music. He paused for a moment while he heard the tunes flow through his room. He nodded quietly as he made a few quick adjustments to the the strings tune. Just as the song was about to end, he started playing again and once more raw Heavy metal started pounding through the walls as Warrens fingers danced along the fret board. He needed to focus, on both his playing and making sure the sound was directed to next door. I wonder what he will make of this... [groove]21193384[/groove]

Warren sighed as he picked up his guitar. It was about time he did some guitar practice, he wanted to make sure his skills were still sharp after all. He was just about to turn down the volume on his guitar until someone next door started Blasting whatever they were playing at full blast. ...Two can play at that game. He thought as he turned the Volume up on his guitar, focused his powers and aplified the sound until he was sure he had just eclipsed the sound from next door. [groove]21193168[/groove]

The One Where They Fight The Nazis (IC)

The very moment the chaos started, Rift quickly surrounded himself with a layer of sound and quickly figured out what he was going to do. He quickly flew around the ship and followed the girl inside, though he didn't reach her in time when she was hit. He unslung his guitar, quickly strumming a few strings his guitar and sending a powerful wave of sound rushing towards Klansman. -

The One Where They Fight The Nazis (IC)

Rift continued to speed forward, sighting the blimp in the distance. He was going to keep going, but then he saw what looked like a green dragon with a squid for a head holding a guy by the waist. ...OK, not the weirdest thing I've seen in this city. Close though. He slowed down, floating mid-air a foot or two away from him. "Well, I didn't come for the view." He said with a shrug. Didn't seem like he was going to rip Rifts head off, so he seemed OK. For now anyway. "OK. I'm guess you guys have a plan for this?" He asked, jerking a thumb towards the aircraft. -

Southside Warren sighed as he left his parents apartment. They were still worried about him living over at Claremont than at home where they could keep an eye on him. At least with this visit out of the way, they would at least stop with the demands that they call every second day. He streched a bit before making his way down the street, guitar case in hand. He was about to sit down b the bus stop when he heard something comming from a parked police car. He paused and focused at it. ...Oh damn. warren though as he heard someone else on the police band mentioning the location of the incident before the officers inside put the car in gear and sped off. He looked around for a moment, making sure no one saw him before making his way across the street and ducking into an ally. He opened his guitar case and removed the bottom of the case, revealing his outfit. They might need help taking them down before they start making good on those threats. A few minutes later, Rift shot out from the buildings, guitar strapped to his back as he headed over to Kingston. He would have to come back for the case later. -
Warren nodded. "I might look him up as well. Unless his name is Eddie. Heard he has a band so I was gonna check that out." He said with a shrug. He was still trying to wrap around the idea he was surrounded with so many people with superpowers as well as himself. More than a little intimidating, especially with Trevor's mention of telepaths. As if I didn't have enough to worry about. "Probably gonna end up rooming with someone. Still need to go and get the school schedule and find out which room I'm crashing though." He wasn't sure when this was going to happen, but at least he didn't pack heavy when he came here.
-
Warren nodded and took in every detail Mark spoke of as he let the tour go on. He did have to admit,it was somewhat interesting since he didn't know much about the school other than what was advertised on the pamphlet Then there was the casual mention that the school was for superheros. How the hell do you keep something like that secret? He shook his head and gave himself a mental slap in the face.. He took a breath and hoped he didn't reveal too much At the mention of this powers, Warren shrugged. "Uh. Well, mostly sound control, some flight and hearing and a bit of tech on the side." he said, raising his guitar case to punctuate the last part of that sentence.

Some Tropes associated with Rift Alliterative Name: (Warren Wilder) Badass Longcoat Batman Gambit (Doesn't quite have the skills needed to pull off a full on Xanatos Gambit yet) Civvie Spandex (Other than the coat and mask, most of Rifts clothing is this) Deadpan Snarker: (happens a lot when annoyed) Domino Mask Epic Rocking (LOVES to do this) In a Five man band Rift is either The Lancer or The Smart Guy. Gadgeteer Genius (Rift does have a natural talent for technology, as shown with his guitar.) Kid Hero (Which is connected to Wake Up Go To School Save The World) Makes Me Wanna Shout (This is Rifts power, though he can do it with any source of sound.) Musical Assassin: (His preferred method of attack with his sonic abilities is his guitar. Crosses with The Power of Rock) Required Secondary Powers (His ability to control sound allows him to subconscious filter sound to stop himself from going deaf. Useful when you have super hearing.) Scientific Progress Goes Oi (Likely what will happen once he is out of school) Super senses (Has hearing so good it doubles as sonar!) Teen Genius (Though he currently can't compete through Raw intelligence with most of the others that fall under this trope right now)

"Yeah, maybe." Warren replied to Trevor. He was about to say something else until someone else showed up. He was starting to suspect he had stumbled into a teen drama judging by how everyone was suspiciously good looking. Wonder whats the deal with that... "Hey, Uh, Thanks." Warren said after shaking marks hand. He looked a Mark for a moment, suspicion lingering in his eyes until it faded. Someone must have called ahead or something...possibly anyway. He quickly bent down and picked up his guitar case. "Sounds like a good plan, need to get myself sorted out still and find some place for my stuff. Walk and talk?" He said as he looked around at everyone around him, seeing if anyone was going to tag along.

Personality & Motivation edit since I was using a rough draft before and never got around to fixing it before submitting. Just noticed how incomplete it looked. Warren appears as a calm but often distant individual wrapped in his own thoughts, guitar practice or whatever little project he has going on. Anyone that tries talking to him will find that he's quite friendly and has quite a sarcasm streak when annoyed. He has a tendency to think and plan as far ahead as possible, though it has been noted in the past he does grow increasingly stressed, nervous and/or aggressive when things start to fall apart, which may have contributed to the manifestation of his powers. He is a major music fan and pretty dedicated to Rock and heavy metal along with other musical genres, but finds Rap music irritating. Doktor'd

Warren turned his head back over to Trevor, looking a little surprised by his sudden mention of a estate. He caught his suitcase and brought it back to the ground. "Wait, estate?" Somehow, He knew he shouldn't be that surprised. The place was advertised as a private school, well up until now anyway. "No offence man, but you don't scream rich kid to me. Then again, I've never actually met a rich kid, so I really have no idea what the hell I'm talking about." He said with a shrug.

Rift: New Sound 9

Warren managed to forge a smile on his face at Trevors joke. "Nice one. Seriously though, I think I can take care of it myself." He turned back to Erin and nodded. "Yeah. Like I said before, I'll look him up, if he's around later on. As for where I'm from, I'm just from Southside." He said, pointing in the direction he was pretty sure it was in. "How about you?"
-
Warren nodded to Trevor. He didn't seem to need to introduce himself that much, which must mean things are going well for now. "If their are any elves, it would certainly make things easier around here." He said with a small smile. He turned back to Erin and shrugged. Looked like she figered out some of it. "Nothing much. amplification, changing it, destroying anything using ultrasonic frequencies...the usual mix"
-
"Hey." Warren said with a short wave. "Nice to meet you as well." He looked at both Faith and Erin for a moment, realizing they didn't look half bad. "So...Where is everything? I really should do something about all my stuff." He said with a quick gesture to his things.
-
"Not yet. This is technically my first time here. Barely have any idea where I'm suppose to go at the moment." Warren said with some very mild disappointment. He did pause for a moment to contemplate the next question. He barely knew much about the student body and it seemed normal so far. Well, other than the cat anyway. "Well...As for what I do I'm pretty much make sure things sound right." He finally said.
