“Hey there, Central City! Or, y’know, whoever’s reading this. Name’s Trailblazer. You’ve probably never heard of me—and that’s fine, I prefer it that way. I'm a speedster i guess? But I’m not here to save the world or anything (seriously, the Justice League and other heroes has that covered). I’ll help out if I feel like it… or if I feel bad enough to guilt-trip myself into it.”
hit me up with whatever—questions, comments, bad jokes. I’m bored, so go wild. :D
[OOC + Mun speaking!] Hey! This is a roleplay blog for my DC OC. It's kinda my first time running a rp blog, so I’m still figuring things out. And If I did something wrong or upset you, please let me know kindly. <3 (mun is 17 btw:D)
“Anyway, here’s some info about me. Keep it to yourself, yeah? No snitching.”
Base credit :D
Name: Cassian Grant
Alias: Trailblazer
Ethnicity: Half-Indonesian (Mother's side), and whatever his dad is
Age: 19
D.O.B: April 12
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bisexual
Height: 5'9"
Families: A dad who’s more into science than parenting; mom’s... gone.
Resident: Central City, living alone
Occupation: Part-time odd jobs worker (when bored), professional speedster-by-accident
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
MBTI: ENTP
Voice claim: Keith Akira Kogane from Voltron
Likes:
-Sketchy street food that’s probably bad for him and junk foods
-Spicy noodles (like, melt-your-tongue spicy)
-Free stuff (because, duh)
-Music loud enough to drown out the voices
Dislike:
-Being told what to do
-The smell of hospitals or labs (for obvious reasons)
-Questions that start with “why didn’t you…” (I don’t know, I just didn’t)
-Slow walkers
-Loud squeaking sounds
-Alarms (all kinds: alarm clocks, school bells, fire alarms, car alarms—they all suck)
Habits:
-Talking way too fast when he’s nervous (to the point no one understands him)
-Zoning out mid-conversation
-Repainting his nails every weekend
-Constantly fidgeting—leg bouncing, tapping, anything to keep moving
Abilities: Speedster things, obviously—running fast, healing fast, screwing up fast. (Occasionally) limited time manipulation and control over kinetic energy. Creative problem-solving under pressure (read: winging it).
Background: Took a dumb dare to explore a supposedly haunted house, got caught in an explosion from a mad (ex-STAR labs) scientist’s botched experiment (involving something about 'Speed Force', idk) and trapped in a time loop, aged about a thousand mental years in a split second. Now, he’s got powers he didn’t ask for, a lifetime’s worth of trauma, and a sense of time that’s just a little broken.
Notes:
-The orange streaks in his hair weren’t his choice (suddenly appears post-Speed Force accident), but they’ve grown on him.
-Often struggles with maintaining focus due to his hyper-active nature.
-His costume is stolen “Permanently borrowed” from an oblivious superhero; modified and recolored.
“Alright, that’s all for now. Catch you later—Trailblazer out.”
Same rules as getting stuck in cryo-freeze or stasis for interplanetary travel. Your physical, mental, and chronological ages would all be different numbers. You'd be centuries older mentally, but not physically or -- probably -- chronologically. So it's kind of a situational, context-dependent thing.
...Also are you still in the time-loop, is anyone else in danger of getting looped, and do you need help getting out? Or are we speaking hypothetically?
Whoa, that’s a lot of words to say ‘it’s complicated.’ But nah, I’m not technically in the loop anymore. it spit me out after a second, even though it felt like *forever*.
No one else is in danger (I think?). So, no rescue needed. Appreciate the concern, though!
Hypothetically speaking, though, I might be losing it a little. Who’s to say?
(honestly I think we're all losing it a little bit in this profession)
Sorry, guess I do get pretty verbose sometimes, lol -- I just like to be precise
Glad to know you're okay. Did you pick up any skills in the time loop? Honestly I think one might be fun, just for the excuse to, like, learn a new instrument or something if it cycles long enough. Centuries, though... How did you fill all that time?
True, losing it kinda feels like a job requirement at this point.
And nah, no need to apologize.
As for skills… I mean, I’m a speedster now, so I guess I learned how to, uh, exist in the Speed Force thingy? Not exactly something I can put on a resume.
Honestly, the loop wasn’t exactly a chill vacation— It was all chaos and running, trying not to disintegrate in there or whatever, also trying not to completely lose my mind. No time for hobbies for me.
Tried to speed-run grocery shopping. Ended up forgetting half the list and somehow just bought a glow-in-the-dark lava lamp and three bags of marshmallows. No idea how that happened.

Yo, hold up—I just realized something. Why are there so many Gotham folks on here? Is this like, a Gothamites-only app or what? I feel like that random neighbor awkwardly watching your family reunion through the fence. You know the one.
I will say Gotham has some absolutely gorgeous architecture. Reminds me of downtown Bison City sometimes, just... In a different color palette (and maybe with a blue filter slapped on top lmao). One day, when I have time and the vacation days to spend, I wanna take a historical tour. But, knowing my luck, we'd get derailed by some nutcase who decided crime was cheaper than therapy.
The Rogues out here have their problems, but at least they keep themselves in check, you know?
Yeah, they really put the "goth" in Gotham (lmao). It does look really cool, but living there? Hard pass.
Historical tour sounds fun, though—just make sure your guide isn’t secretly a supervillain or something. Central City Rogues might be annoying, but at least they don’t dress up like clowns. Can’t deal with clowns, man. Hard no.
