In 2115, a group of scientists got together to create superpowers for the world. They created these superpowers in the form of chips, which could be injected into a person's body and they could do anything from shooting fire, to lifting boulders the size of trucks. However despite the scientists being straight A students, they thought it was a good idea to ship them on trucks and give them away. Oh how wrong they were.

An armored truck drives down the highway towards Topeka, Kansas with two people in front, a driver and a passenger. Both of them have pistols, the passenger cradles a shotgun in his hands.
"We're almost there." Sighs the driver. "Finally."
The passenger chuckles. "Once we get to Topeka, first thing we do when we're finished unloading is to relax in a hotel room."
"I'll definitely agree to that." Smiles the driver.
Two miles down the road, the low tire pressure light pops up on the dashboard and the truck slows to a stop.
"I'll go and check the problem." Groans the driver.
The driver checks the front tires, then as he gets to the back tires, he notices the passenger side tire to be flat. What's even more noticeable is that a round hole on the side of the tire goes straight through and into the other back tire.
The driver inspects the hole. "What made this?"
Footsteps are suddenly heard behind him, he turns around for a brief second before he gets shot between the shoulder blades.
The passenger in the truck hears the gunshot and comes out to see a person in an exosuit, holding a pistol in hand. The exosuit's U shaped visor glows a brilliant green. On it's back is a sheathed katana and what seems to be a jet pack. There's a camera lens inside the forehead of the helmet.
The passenger immediately fires the shotgun which prooves to be ineffective as the exosuited person quickly rolls under the truck. The passenger looks under the truck, seeing nothing, but is stabbed in the back with the katana moments later as the mysterious robot person jumps from the top of the truck.
The passenger coughs blood, his shotgun drops from his hands. He then falls to the ground, staring at his murderer as the life drains from his eyes.
The exoskeleton person then goes over to the back of the truck and opens it, revealing shelves of power chips.
The next day, news crews are surrounding the truck, nothing but the dead bodies of the driver and victim were found. The shelves had been stripped of their chips.
35 years later...

Welcome to the remake of Single Minded! The year you will be placed in is 2140, it'll be a bit advanced technology wise but not too advanced to the point we all have hover cars or anything like that.
In Single Minded you are criminal, for whatever reason is decided by you. Your objective is to kill the one that causes you trouble. Whoever that is, will be a mystery until a certain point in the game.
This game is also a free-roam RPG on Earth, where the things you can do are endless. You could also meet other players in the game.
When in combat, you will use a 1d6. Damage is decided on the roll times your power's level.
Rules
With a game like this, there are some rules to come with it.
1. Don't be a jerk to other players or me.
2. Don't change things in your character sheet unless I forget to add something.
3. Don't argue with me if something doesn't go your way.
Character Sheet:
Name: (anything you want)
Age: (13 - 40)
Gender: (Male or Female)
Bio: (Your character's story) (If you have nothing then you will have amnesia)

Choosing a Beginning
Choose from this list for a beginning. If you don't choose, I will roll for what you get.
1. You've lost someone and you're going to save them, no matter what the cost.
2. You're an ex-soldier, betrayed by the military and left to die. All you want is revenge on the person who set you up.
3. You're an average person living a normal life, when you accidentally discover you have powers. Now you're being hunted, and you want to know why (although that isn't particularly criminal).
4. You're a long-time gang member and you just a threat from someone from another gang (or a threat from the gang). Time to take action.
5. You're a career thief/hacker/assassin/etc and you're just been offered the deal of a lifetime from an anonymous person.
6. You're a new prisoner, being sentenced for an amount of time in prison. No one has escaped this prison, but you're about to change that.
Hope you guys have fun.
Also, if it seems that I'm getting slow at doing this RPG, smack me.
Players will be able to get a third power by random. They won't get it right away however.

(never thought of the coin thing)
You hit the door but the door was too strong for you. You slowly pass out on the soft carpet floor, overwhelmed by smoke.
You wake up strapped to a chair(Does this remind you of anything?). You notice your tazer and bag of equipment is missing. You have no idea what happened to it. You have your flashlight though, for some reason. Which is good, because this room is too dark for you to see in.
You don't know if someone is in the room or not.

You grab the gun and pull him towards you. However, he didn't open the door, so he slams against the bars and is unconscious. He lets go of the LMG and now you have it.

I attempt to slip by the guard with invisibility and look for the mayor.

(The dice chose beginning number 2 for you.)
You're marching through the woods with a squadron of Russian soldiers, there's 6 of them, including you. You're the leader of this squadron. You accidentally run into a branch, but you tear it off it's tree.
Your co-commander approaches you, "Captain, who are we looking for? You still haven't told us."
You just ignore him as you trudge on, sweating from climbing up that mountain side from awhile back.
You hit a fork in the road, there's two paths you can take, a right and a left. Both are pretty much the exact same. In the middle of the path you see a fallen sign that says, "WARNING: Quicksand on the-"the rest of the sign has been torn off.
"Captain!" Shouts your co-commander again. "Who are we looking for?"

(With invisibility leveling up at level 2 you will be able to use your shadow powers only once during invisibility without invisibility going out on you, but it will only be a half of a level 1's damage and if you use your shadow powers again after the first time, you won't be invisible. However if you hit, let's say, level 3 on invisibility, you'll be able to use your shadow powers twice during invisibility.)
You open the door but the guard immediately looks at the door and shuts it before you can get it. The guard that shut the door speaks to his colleague, "Duuude, did you see that? It just opened by itself."
The second guard just sighs. "It's probably just the wind you idiot."

Your arms are free with all your work at loosening the ropes. It seems these boy scouts weren't very good at tying their knots.
However, you feel your waist and notice that some kind of electronic strap is connecting you to the chair. You can still get to your flashlight fortunately for you.

(Basically if your super strength is level 1 and your roll a 5, you do 5 damage. But if it's level 2 and you roll a 5, you do 10 damage.)
You head into the Larosa's Pizza. A pizzeria where you're supposed to meet your client. You head up to a sign that says, "Please wait to be seated." However, according to your note, you don't need to wait as your client is already at a table.
You look around for your client's table and immediately find it, as it's the only table with a huge obese man. This man is probably the fattest man you've ever seen in your life. His business suit surprisingly fits him with no visible problems.
Your client waves to you. "Hello! Allan, my good man, right this way." You do what he says and sit down across from him. "Go ahead and order anything from the menu while we discuss what you need to do for me."

You check your new message, it's from someone named Doug Trogol.
It reads: "Hey dude, we need to hang out again sometime. I rarely see you anymore, you're always working. Speaking of which, what do you do? Anyways, hope you reply soon."

You wake up on the ground in a Wal-Mart in the toy aisle. However it's night time and Wal-Mart is closed.
You don't remember your name or age. What did people used to call people who didn't remember stuff? Amnesiacs? You don't know. You realize you have a cellphone in your pocket. You check your cellphone and notice you have a text message from someone named 'Client'. The message reads, "Rokej, meet me in the ice cream aisle for your assignment."
You shrug as you think that Rokej is probably your name. You get up looking around. Would you like to explore the dark aisles of the Wal-Mart for the ice cream aisle?
@nivlac724, I had to roll for the ones that didn't choose their beginnings. It literally took me an hour to type all of that.

(Can I stay invisible infinitely at all levels?)
I look if the guards have weapons if so I try and find a place where they wouldn't be able to see me if I turn visible. If not I take a couple of steps back, turn visible and then create shadow arms to try and punch them.

You turn visible behind a potted bush that's just out of the guards' sights. The bush is right next to the entrance to the town hall, just be careful of the guards.

You grab the keys from the guard and immediately unlock your cell.
You have two ways to go, left or right. To the left seems to be a bunch of offices with a turn to the right at the end of the hall. To the right is a hallway with a bunch of prison cells, the hallway is dark, but dark isn't necessarily a problem for you.

You examine the strap. It seems to be made of nylon but is stronger than the ropes. At the end of the strap is some kind of electronic lock.
You look around the room. You're in a bland windowless room with the only interesting things is the metal door and a table made of oak wood.
