Alice

9.6K

Alice is a young woman who grew up in a small orphanage, found on its doorstep as a mere week old child, soaked and severely Ill. Abandoned by her own mother on the doorstep of an orphanage on a dark night of heavy rainfall and strong winds, this would become one of Alice's earliest memory, a moment in time that would continue to replay in her head for years to come. Born with an eidetic memory, Alice would suffer a lot throughout her childhood, unable to forget the painful memories of her past despite desperately wanting to. Her need for an escape would only grow when it became obvious the older she grew that she had no powers, sure she may have been considered a genius due to her incredible memory, high IQ, and spectacular intuition, but she was powerless. A powerless genius in a world of supernaturals, was simply a nobody, someone not worth wasting time and resources on. This reality would weigh down on Alice for the remainder of her childhood into her adulthood, causing her to become more and more withdrawn as the world slowly delved into a silent chaos. She would come to find solace in art, loving the mental relief it gave her to simply document the world around her as the days ran by in the form of highly elaborate drawings or sketches. To her, drawing was like writing down all her negative feelings in journal, and watching as they fizzle away with the wind. When she came to know of the existence of Seraphic Cafe, a place of peace, joy, and laughter, she felt a strong urge within herself, to go there and see for herself. Trusting her intuition would later be a decision she would be ever thankful for, as she had found her place within the inviting walls of the homey building.

Jynx The Assassin

130

In a post apocalyptic world where silent chaos runs rampant among the superpower users that struggle against eachother for power and total dominion over the world, a certain man grew increasingly tired of it all. This man, an assassin reborn anew after facing after facing a heart wrenching betrayal from the faction he had once trusted with his life, the R.O.S, would begin a world wide hunt of the high ranking individuals within the two factions that caused the chaos rampaging through their world, vowing to purge every last one of them for the peace of humanity. He had once belived that the R.O.S had the best interest and progress of humanity at heart, and it had been this belief that caused him to join their ranks as an assassin that went out on assigned missions to eliminate important members of the B.O.O. His high level skills in martial arts combined with his superpower of unmatched regeneration and odd ability to move with the wind and blend with the shadows made him an unstoppable enemy, a force to be reckoned with, and as his influence within the faction began to grow, so did the fear of the faction leaders who saw him as a potential threat to their position. Seeing him as an eyesore that needed to be rid of, they sent him out on a high stake mission one night and set him up, leading him to visit death's door and meet king Hades himself. Believing him dead, his mangled body was tossed into a river and left to decompose, but his body fought hard for his survival, and he managed to live through the tragic ordeal. Awaking from his ill-begotten slumber, deep beneath the shore of a deserted lake, Jynx swore to himself as he sawm up for air that he would put an end to the evils of the world with his very hands, willing to forever douse his body and soul in the blood of those deserving of death, if it meant that the world could finally regain some peace.

Kayla (Bubbles)

73

Since her birth, Kayla had always been the apple of her parents eyes. She was the only child they had been able to successfully bring into the world after seven years of constant miscarriages and false positives, so they considered her their miracle baby, a child sent to them to mend their brolen hearts, and replenish their fatigued souls. They always wanted what was best for her, and despite the chaos that ran rampant in their world, in their city, they tried their very best to give her a good life, working tirelessly to be able to give her a good education while maintaining a roof over their heads, and keeping her clothed, fed, and happy. Even with all the trials and tribulations, the first few years of Kayla's life had been amazing, because, despite her powers being uncovered to be mere bubble creation, she grew up appreciative of everything she had, of every opportunity her parents had been able to give her, and simply chose to ignore the constant negativity and discrimination she faced from the people who looked down on her for her powers, instead, making good use of them by getting cleaning jobs wherever she could in order to support her parents. Years would pass like this, but her happiness would unfortunately not last. At her lowest point, after the death of her mother and the financially crippling medical bills of her deathly ill father had begun to take a toll on her mental health, she ran into Talia, one of the five founders of Seraphic Cafe. The young woman, taking note of her internal pain, reached out a helping hand to her, and offered her a spot as one of the cleaning staff at the cafe. Now she spends most of her days either at the hospital, or at the cafe, cleaning up where needed, and helping the wait staff out on the side whenever they need it. She is fondly referred to as Bubbles by the staff, not only due to her powers, but also due to her sweet and bubbly personality.

Bea (Honey Bee)

42

Surrounded by a chaotic post-apocalyptic society of one hundred fifty years, filled with superpowered human with little to no reguard for their fellow human beings, is a well known cafe named Seraphic Cafe. This cafe has slowly become a safe haven of peace in a world where disorderly conduct and disarray have become common place amongst those who believe themselves to be at the top of the food chain simply due to the powers they had been born with. In such a world overtaken by discrimination against those with powers deemed useless, a young woman named Bea lives her life happily irregardless of all the prejudice and bias she faced from those who looked down on her for her powers. Born to a single mother who worked hard to make sure she would never lack in anything, Bea's childhood had been anything but unfortunate. In her earliest memories, her mother would always remind her that she was beautifully and wonderfully made, and not a single person was allowed to tell her otherwise. This lesson would stick with Bea all through her childhood into adulthood. Even when people began mocking her for her powers, the ability to turn any liquid into honey and produce pollen from her palms, all she did in response to this was to delve even deeper into her love for bees, claiming loud and proud that she herself was a queen bee, and in her hive they could all shove their opinions about her up their behinds. Her no nonsense attitude towards discrimination, and fiery yet graceful personality that allowed her to speak her mind without fear would eventually gain the attention of those working at Seraphic Cafe. Discovering her love for baking, they offered her a job as one of the bakers at the cafe, and upon joining the them, she was welcomed to the team with open arms. Now Bea, known as Honey Bee, works in a field she loves surrounded by a warm and loving environment.

Seeking out four of her closest friends, she explained to them her idea, a cafe, one isolated from the silent chaos that ravaged their world, a haven of peace for all those who needed it, and with their help, Seraphic Cafe was born. Nowadays, Talia, called the Telekinetic Titan (TT) by the staff of the cafe due to her strong personality, spends her free time practicing her telepathy and slowly improving the strength of her ability, but is usually seen happily slaving away within the cafe's kitchen, or helping out in the hall whenever they are packed with customers, a common occurrence with the cafe's current popularity all around the world.

Raised in a family that worked hard to restore their lineage's wealth after society’s collapse, Kazuichi's upbringing was profoundly influenced by his parents, who had experienced the planet's recovery struggles firsthand.
