Okay, first app...here I go!
~
Name:Grodus
Age:Unknown(though some have guessed 40s'-50s')
Current Location:Moon Base
Current Position:Leader of the X-Nauts(the ones remaining, at least)
Looks:Grodus is a tall, somewhat wide(though that might be his robes) X-Naut. He wears a long purple and black robe with a red and white attachment on the front that has a white X, a black and gold cape, a white scarf that covers most of his face, goggles that cover his eyes, white gloves and black boots that are covered by his robe. He seems to have some sort of mechanical attachment on his head that presumably increases his intelligence and also shows that Grodus might be a cyborg of sorts. He also carries around a gold staff that has a blue orb on the end of it and he uses this staff as his main weapon.
Weapons:His staff and the command of his army. When he is alone though, he uses his staff as both a physical weapon in close combat and as an object to cast magic with.
His magic seems to consist of elemental magic, the ability to stop time for a short period, creating illusions and counterattacks.
He also uses creatures, known as Grodus X, to create a force field.
Strengths:His magic is a powerful asset as well as his intelligence and tactics. He's much more dangerous during long distance combat than close, though he'll use his staff as a melee weapon if necessary. He's also a bit more tough if he has any soldiers to back him up, as he'll take advantage of any distractions they cause.
Weaknesses:He's weaker physically than magically and will get worn out sooner if forced into a physical fight. He's also more easy to handle when he's alone. His force field can be destroyed if you take out the Grodus Xs' creating it and if you destroy or cause him to lose his staff somehow, Grodus will be somewhat defenseless as that is his source of magic.
Likes:Science, world domination, when everything's going according to plan, absolute power and control, intelligent people, absolute obedience, his Chain Chomps, reading, chess and puzzles.
Dislikes:Mario, the Shadow Queen, Mario's partners, the Shadow Sirens, the inhabitants of the Mushroom World, people who disobey or challenge him, people who are in the way, when things aren't working as he planned, stupidity, incompetence and rudeness.
Personality:Grodus is cold, ruthless, stubborn and most of all, insane, though he rarely shows his madness unless he's extremely upset or excited. Now that he's being monitored and watched by the law, he acts less aggressive and maniacal, though he still has moments of insanity. Other than that, he still acts like his usual self.
For instance, when he was still in power, he expected total obedience from everyone and punished anyone who broke his laws, no matter how small said crime was. He also manipulated anyone he thought would be useful for his plans, not caring about who he hurt at all. Though he doesn't use and manipulate people as often, he still expects total obedience, at least from his own people.
He's also very intelligent, having created TEC, helped with the construction of his Moon Base and always seeming to be one step ahead. He also mainly enjoys intellectual activities, such as reading, playing chess or any other logic game, etc.
Bio:Grodus was the leader of the X-Naut Society, an alien organization that tried to take over the world by using an ancient demon, the Shadow Queen, as their main weapon. Unfortunately, the Shadow Queen refused to work alongside the X-Nauts and destroyed their leader's body to prove that she meant it.
After the Shadow Queen's defeat, the police force of Poshley Heights placed him and his remaining soldiers under arrest, having them do community service after they did time in jail. During their stay at Poshley Heights for community service, they got permission to build Grodus a new body. This new body is mainly metallic and less advanced than what they would've made with their own technology, but it was enough for Grodus to move around and get work done faster.
Despite all of these obstacles in the way, Grodus still has plans for revenge and world domination, as he's still angered and humiliated by his defeat at the hands of Mario. And let's face it, he doesn't give up easily. When he's finally done with his "service" and gets his hands on some ACTUAL decent technology...well, the Mushroom World had better be prepared. He WILL rise again.

Okay, that was fun. Hope I did good.
Grodus is one of my favorite villains from the Paper Mario series(along with General Guy, the Crystal King and Lord Crump) and I've always wanted to RP as him. It seemed fun and it might also give me inspiration for some stories I have planned out.
The thing about the whole "physically weak" stuff is that I noticed that he never actually uses his staff as a melee weapon. He only uses it for magic. You'd think when he freezes time he would just go over to you and start whacking you around all over the place and such, but he doesn't, so...my theory is that he's weak physically. He's not sickly or anything(though with that laugh, he may be a bit), just not strong.
So, that's all. Hope you like it.
