Magnus Might is the alter-ego of Aiden Lee, a retired inventor and house-body. In this "new take on life" as Magnus, he maintains the altruistic nature, but tacks on wanderlust. Magnus Might has the common catch phrase "risk it for the biscuit," but does not necessarilly believe in "high risk, high reward." He works happily on thank-yous and smiles, with the potential of his deeds being retold later. Everything he does is with a good attitude, believing firmly in the silver lining, and "anything is an obstacle worth conquering."

Physical Description:

As the "avatar" of Dr. Aiden Lee, a man far into his years, Magnus Might was designed without the "new-age Edgelord" in mind. In fact, many would say he looks absolutely unassuming if he were to stand among a gaggle of college students.

Magnus is six foot two, putting him on the tall side, and his weight is just over two hundred pounds - namely due to his magnetite composition. Blond hair, blue eyes, always wearing a smile, some might go so far as to call Magnus a "pretty boy," to which he will say thanks and just smile brighter.

He "appears" to wear an assortment of long sleeve shirts and slacks, combined with worn old leather shoes for what many would call an "old man vibe."

Character History:

Magnus Might is a recent invention of Dr. Aiden Lee PhD. with a material body composed of magnetite and minute amounts of other components, he is brought to life by a series of enchantments acting like a "program" that connects him to Dr. Lee through a full-immersion-gaming system (FIGS, for short.)

Aiden Lee invented Magnus in his late years, after realizing his life dedicated to creating fictional worlds meant he had never fully explored the real world. Magnus Might's very name originates from one of his first interactions with using the Cloud as a platform for interactive games, before graduating medical school and changing his online name to Dr_LeeR0Y.

His goal with Magnus is to experience the world at large, and be the hero he always pretended to be in video games. Being a retired inventor, he wanted Magnus to be a project of pure altruism, where self-sacrifice simply meant dipping into his retirement fund for the sake of saving lives. Much like one would simply re-roll a character in a tabletop game, should they fall.

Abilities/Skills:

Cloud Interfacing

Communication (100)

Magnus is linked to Dr. Lee's FIG System, but ONLY to a particular system. This is the means by which Magnus is effectively piloted. Beyond this, it can be used to interface with the Cloud, much like a personal communication device (simply built-in.)


Gray Goo Physiology
Incredible Cold (100)
Need to breathe (200)
Space (300)
Radioactive Environments (50)
Starvation and Thirst (50)
Need for Sleep (50)
Chemical or Toxic Environments (50)
Disease (50)
Falling (100)
Nonbiological Anatomy (300)
Immune to Pain (200)

Total: 1450

Despite looking “human” in most cases, Magnus is in fact a Gray Goo - a collection of tiny machines. He is a non-living construct with sentience. As such, he experiences the following benefits;

Magnus does not have internal organs, nor a need to sustain them through normal means. Meaning, he does not suffer brain damage, heart failure, suffocation, or starvation. No biological disease or chemical/toxic environment can alter his nonexistent “biology.”

Due to his “body” being held together by magnetic forces, even decompression in space does not do his physical body harm. With cold improving magnetic attraction, cold environments (including that in space) can almost be seen as beneficial.

While he does not require sleep, when Magnus is not controlled by Aiden Lee, the remnant AI is very simple and rudimentary, programmed mostly for self-preservation.

In regards to “pain,’ Magnus can “feel” it, but it registers more as “taking damage.” The best way to consider this is a video game with hit points per body part - which is what Aiden designed it to simulate. Magnus does not suffer from the pain of ordinary injuries but is aware of them.

Mighty Strike
Damage 4 (400)

Magnus is designed with a primary weapon called the "Mighty Strike." Simply put, this is a combat style involving shifting mass to a striking surface, increasing density and impact force. Due to his metallic makeup, these strikes can be heavy.

Affinities: Lucky

Total Essence Spent: 1950[/spoiler]

Edit; Realized one of the spoiler tags was not nested properly, ate half the application.

I've asked in the Smol Questions a more brief version (Namely; Never posted as Jin the Gilded, just the NPC Malloki, and was told that I didn't need to donate for character change since Jin's... never seen the light of day. I did have a few follow up questions that might be better addressed here;


The essence on the account was earned through the NPC Malloki. Once Quin Darcy's name is changed to Malloki's, I'd like to continue NPC'ing him on there, then after his death, he'd come back as the "remodeled" Malloki (reason for remodeling on that application.) I was already told this would be transferred. The Coin, as well, was made through being active as NPCoki (Had to, sorry!)

Would the Coin be lost, or would it follow NPCoki to the other account?

In the same sense, I referred Kkniro. If he's approved before Magnus is, are Tokens reset?

If the details as to why Malloki is being NPC'd on Jin, I've said it in chat but to put it in a more permanent location;
I've been moving to a new place during most of DA, Malloki had been "Retired" because he needed touched up (to avoid mass confusion. Decided to NPC him for the event, but didn't realize till about three posts in I was on the wrong account on my phone. (Yes, I can be an idiot at times. XD)
