DC/Marvel Universe

So here are my ideas. All of this is negotiable, of course. These are just general ideas. The heroes, villains and citizens. We’re going to start with the careers of all involved to be fairly young, for the most part. At least their public lives. You’ll notice a lot of this is based on the movies… just cause. This is a world where all these comic book characters from different company exist on the same Earth in the same universe.

Status of some important/popular figures:
-Superman: Only recently revealed himself, like within the last year. We could even use the events from the movie.
-Batman: I would say he’s been an urban legend for a while now. People in Gotham know of him, or think they do. I would say the events of ‘Dark Knight’ (Joker) happened, but not much beyond that.
-Iron Man: (Character reserved for co-GM Apygoos)Tony was kidnapped and made his armor to escape. He has had a public outing with it, like at the end of the first movie. It will be up to the player to decide if he’s revealed his secret identity yet.
-Wolverine: (Character is taken by me, sorry) Much of his past happened as it did in the comics. But he’s never been in the X-Men.

Again, most of this is based on them not being in the public eye for long (if at all). The Avengers don’t exist, neither does the JLA, or Fantastic Four.
I would say the Xavier school exists and helps mutants, but perhaps the X-Men don’t exist. Or if they do, they have had very limited adventures. Maybe just to fight Magneto.

SHIELD exists, but it’s not as wide scoped as it is in the movies. They won’t be in charge of the team that is formed. I see them as more of a covert government group that investigates ‘metahuman’ activities.

The team will be formed by one of the main heroes.. I can see Superman or Tony Stark doing this. Maybe Dr. Fate or Dr. Strange (or both and are NPC characters) enlists one of them to recruit other heroes to stop an evil they forsee. The villain itself, that’s up for debate. Has to be something big, though. Something to big for a single hero to handle. Darkseid was my first thought.. Thanos would be awesome, but he’s being used an awful lot recently. Ultron, perhaps. Galactus might be to much.. maybe. I also want our team to face multiple villains, from both universes. Maybe a league of evil sort of thing eventually. People can play heroes and villains in this RP.

The team name… I have no idea yet. Avengers? Justice League? League of Avengers? Up for debate too.

I see the team as being… 10 people. But I think we can open up the universe more. Have the team be 10 or so, but there are also other heroes in the world.

For the sake of this RP, no character will be.. ya know overpowered. There will be limits. Sure we want to see if the hulk can beat superman, but the hulk or superman can't lift the moon or punch a planet in half. there will be limits, limits strictly enforced by GM's.

We need heroes first, by the way. We're also looking for balance.. so if our team is 10 heroes, then we'd like to shoot for 5 to be from marvel and 5 to be from DC. I'm a co-GM, along with Apygoos. I'll be working on a character sheet in the near future. We're looking for players who can make decent sized posts (paragraph AT LEAST or more), and post at least twice a week please. We'd prefer way more than that, but those are the minimum.

Any questions, just ask! or PM me or Apygoos.

thank you for your interest!

The CS. Please PM post to me (MaiMizzu) and Apygoos
Codename: What do we call you?

Real Name: What name were you born with?

Identity: Secret or public?

Sexuality: Hetrosexual, homosexual, whatever it might be

Approximate Age: Keep in mind we’re going with the idea that 99.5& of ‘heroes’ have made their first public appearance in the last year or so.

Source of Powers/Abilities: Mutie? Science experiment gone awry? Gods give you power when you say something?

City of Operation: If your hero has been working in or out of the public eye, is there a specific city or region they tend to stick to?

Personality: Tell us a little about your character’s attitude and outlook towards others

Weakness or Flaws: We should also include some flaws of your character. Don’t worry, nothing will be used IC

Powers: What.. powers your character has. if any.

Talents/Skills: Abilities that aren't necessarily part of your powers. Like being supersmart or being able to whittle a corncob pipe.

Equipment: Is there anything your character uses or carries on them regularly?

BRIEF History: We know who your hero is for the most part, but this is a different universe. It’s almost like a reset. So what has your character been doing in the passed year or so? Hero’ing? Laying low? Defending Asgard?

Appearance: If you want to post a pic, cool. If you want to describe the look of your character, cool. Both? Even better.

Are you going to be able to post at least once a week? :

Do you have an issue with making your posts AT LEAST one paragraph (more would be adored):


The definition of a hero, at least in my mind, is someone who can protect what is right. To change and stop the wrong. To fight against the forces that seek to destroy you. And, at the very least ... live life well, and enjoy it with those you love.

arkhos

I'd be jazzed for a shot to play Thor. :)

And as a fan of -both- universes, I think this is a great idea. :)

Ugh. I hate to be that guy but Fuck Batman, Fuck Super man, Fuck Spider Man, Fuck Wolverine, Fuck Captain America. Punisher I could see more of but fuck  these overexposed under wearing breakfast cereal ass heroes. Yeah, I said it.  I'd rather see more Hit Girl than any of these boring schmucks and role plays based on alternative concepts rather than these tried and true blockbuster formulaic beaten horses. Same shit, different toilet. It's hard to be excited  about the same 10 characters, I want something different, I want something that's not the usual script. I want to play from the prospective of an unrepentant bad guy in a fucked up world ran entirely by villains,  our world. Or maybe flawed heroes, captain rapist, hero by day, rapist by night. I'm tired of conventional good vs conventional evil. Superhero games need to evolve *drops mic*

Staff aware and acting.

If you dont' like it, then don't join it. And it's unnecessary to post such things here. I'm sorry if this offends you so, but again... you don't have to join. Or even post here.

For everyone else who is actually excited for this, we look forward to hearing from you!

Heyas BK,

You could always start your -own- thread with those ideas you mentioned, rather than going into one you clearly aren't interested in - and posting your displeasure?

I bet if you started your own games with those ideas, you might get some takers. But why you felt the need to come here into a thread about two universes you obviously hate and drop a collection of f-bombs on someone else's ideas is really confusing, and comes across as pretty immature.

Just sayin'.

Imogen

I'd very much like to play Magneto. I know he's usually played as a villain but he's assisted fighting the 'evil' evil more often than enough to qualify as hero. Might also make for some fun dynamics with the X-men joining.

If that's a no go I like to submit a tentative interest for Miss Marvel, Cyclops or Storm.

personally id like to see more women in here. Storm or Ms. Marvel would be pretty legit
I remember your Magneto and Rogue from "A New Fate" while it was up and it was pretty epic.
One thing to keep in mind however: There are no Xmen, no Avengers, no JLA, JSA, Titans, none of it. Some characters history would be more affected than others [i.e. magneto]. Being their first or second year heroing, this will make for some unique interactions

Sounds interesting just need to pick a hero can't decided between Stargirl, Starfire & Goldstar (anyone spot a theme there?  ;D )

As for the big villain, maybe Eclipso sending out black diamonds to possess\control all the world's leaders or something?

I think Goldstar would be awesome, an older Stargirl could be pretty good too, as with an older Starfire

JDrew Spider

Oh I'm so up for this. I'd be Interested in playing Storm or Spiderwoman.

Really can't decide. Storm I think...but a different version.

Maybe Elektra.

I'm perfectly fine with bringing his age up a few years.

I am fairly interested in playing Nightwing, though I don't know if that fusses with the timeline set up.

by this set up. Richard Grayson would be in his teen years as Robin at best.
I'm a Nightwing fanboy, but unfortunately most of his [normal] history is near-impossible [hell we dont even have a batman..or a rule 63 bat].
I love Dick, and play him in our new Titans game here on E, but with the "year one/2" set up, It's really difficult to bring him to fruition. I would need to talk with Mai about it, but if Bats was bent a bit to allow for a logical time frame for Richard to make that ascension to Nightwing, Bats wouldn't be that "urban myth", he would be pretty well established vigilante in Gotham, which changes that possible plothook greatly.

Oldknight

I wouldn't mind taking Hal Jordon if he is open

Diesel Heart

If I were to join up as someone I'd be one of the following:

Rose Wilson: The daughter to Deathstroke and member of the Teen Titans. Precognitive powers and martial training withe enhanced physiology.

Frenzy: A mutant that belongs to the X-Men. A mutant with steel-hard skin and super-strength.


madamcharisma

Okay this sounds like a great crossover. I do have one questions... do you want people RPing as Villains as well or are the villains going to be strictly NPC.

If we're going strictly heroes and heroines here I would be interested in playing either Emma Frost or Hawkgirl. Either one, whichever you think will fit the plot better.

Hawkgirl would be pretty legit. were not taking PC villains at this time, down the road, once we get going, [i.e. after the first "chapter"] we will though.

madamcharisma

I'm on board if you'll have me. I've always wanted to play Hawkgirl.

so update on Nightwing..
"Who knows how long Batman has been working?"
With not Justice League, Batman and robin remained Urban legends, some still believe he is this ravenous creature that stalks its prey in the night, others, a hero that is gone by the time they turn around. In this light, Nightwing can exist, and likely be a lot more "friendlier to working with people" than Bats is.

Ame-comi was a digital comic that was around for a while, all of the heroes and villians were female so Sinestra instead of Sinestro. The artwork was definitely anime influenced and the writing was done as a parody of things that had happen in the main universe.
I liked Hawkgirl's costume because there something just a little bit different\fun about it

This is pretty damn steampunk here. I'm into it, but can we mix the justice league look with this. Maybe real wings instead of the metal ones?

This worlds lack of JLA, Titans, Xmen, Avengers and anything of the like leaves this world far more fearful of monsters, aliens and mutants, leaving grounds for much stronger Anti-meta speech, especially from the like of Lexcorpe CEO Lex Luthor, and hit nighttime television host,  Gordon Godfrey. you show your powers [if you have any]  and people will either thank you, or run in terror.  This is going to be a major plotpoint in our first arc, and likely a  reoccurring theme throughout the RP.

So "borrowing" the new JLA backstory for Stargirl where she's a big hit, media freindly etc wouldn't work then?

Yeah, you're right. Though Kyle's and Guy's uniforms just show how individualistic they are. Guy's was just a cry to say "Look at me!" while Kyle's was based on style and setting himself apart from Hal.

doesent hurt to have ideas for what ya wanna do, but if we can get everyone playing something they wanna play  itll all work out [not like the 3 man tug of war for nightwing in the new titans game, that same tug of war happening for tim drake as a second choice,]

Jmorty33

Oh I do remember that. You guys still looking for Tim in that?

you can say local media loves her maybe, hell people love Iron Man [but then, hes just a man in a suit of armor..but then shes just a girl with a staff. if you went with Goldstar you can try and milk her relation to Booster Gold too.
Well they did suggest that S.T.R.I.P.E. is around somewhere, and wouldn't be a stretch to think that S.T.R.I.P.E. and Iron Man would have sat down and compared notes at some point. Also Courtney and Kitty on the same team, what's not to love about that  :D

Tony compares notes with no one, only possibly finds concepts he observes interesting. in fact, his identity isn't public [yet]. Its no offence to STRIPE.

Jmorty33

Dood, are you sure you want to use Henry for Nightwing? I'm pretty sure that Mai was thinking of using the MoS version of Superman, therefore needing to use Hery for Clark.

MaiMizzu

Please make sure you PM your completed CS's to myself and Apygoos

And as for Superman.. whoever plays him can use whoever they want for him. It's up to the players. But I would expect the man of steel actor to be used for him, but it's up to the player. If you don't want to use anyone else for nightwing, then we'll do what we can I guess.
The definition of a hero, at least in my mind, is someone who can protect what is right. To change and stop the wrong. To fight against the forces that seek to destroy you. And, at the very least ... live life well, and enjoy it with those you love.

I would like to volunteer to play the Man of Steel version of Superman. I'm a big fan of his incarnation in the superhero verse. But how would he need to be altered story wise to fit into the roleplay story? When and how did the man of steel movie events take place? A year ago like mentioned in the first post?

you need to keep in mind, that whole event would've gone much differently in this universe, given you have Marvel heroes there too, for all you know you may have had Thor helping fight general Zod, the general concept though of MoS Superman works

Florence

Kinda interested, though I'm not sure what character I could play. Most of my favorites are female, like Scandal Savage or Kiden Nixon (Secret Six and NYX, DC and Marvel respectively.) Plus, Scandal's a villain and Kiden's pretty much just a super-powered civilian.

Also, for an rp on a site heavy on the erotic roleplaying... how has no one taken Power Girl?
O/O: I was going to make a barebones F-list as a rough summary, but then it logged me out and I lost my progress, so I made a VERY barebones F-list instead: Here.

apygoos

this isnta  sex focused game for one, and were not quite looking for PC villains yet
and believe it or not, we have no Batman, no Cap, no hulk, no powergirl, no wonder woman, no she-hulk..I quite enjoy our current cast because most of the selected cast isnt too mainstream.

I wasn't suggesting it was, I'm just saying, this site in general tends to attract people into erotic roleplay, and you'd think those people would be drawn to the legendary bustiness of Power Girl xD

Also, I figured you weren't accepting villains, hence why I pointed it out as a problem with that character.

Hmm... I could do Red Hood (Jason Todd) as an anti-hero, perhaps. He's a bit non-mainstream... even if he was the main antagonist in an animated movie... though with the timeline of this rp, his death and resurrection would probably be a little too... rushed to make sense.

Also tempted to give Booster Gold a shot, but I'm not sure I could really do him justice. Plus, Booster Gold might be hard to fit into this universe, I dunno. Future time travelers can always be a headache.

Batman (Terry McGinnis) is another character I love, but explaining why future Batman is in the present day of a combined universe sort of hurts my head a little to think about.

Also given how Raven and Starfire are in this, and... I gather from recent posts that he's open now (?), Nightwing could be fun, but... I actually just started reading Teen Titans recently, and I'm not too familiar with Nightwing apart from reading wikis, seeing him in cartoons, and his brief appearance in Batman: Under the Red Hood, so I'm not sure how well I could do the character :I

The modern Batwoman is pretty badass too, actually... but... I'm trying to think of a male character.

As for Marvel characters... I have a lot of male characters I like, but few I'm really confident in my ability to play well.

If you want real Nightwing, Young Justice does well to point out his general character. as well as pre-new 52. new 52 nightwing has some good plots, but otherwise..im not as much of a fan as i am pre-new 52. Nightiwing is normally my go-to

I am heavily reluctant to read any of the New 52 stuff, because that reboot killed The Secret Six :,C

Booster Gold and Iron Man in the same room? Is the world ready for those two shameless self-promoting egomaniacs to exist side by side?
Who knows but it could be fun to watch.

And who says Batman has to be Bruce Wayne? It could be Terry if you can come up with a story that makes him the first Batman.

As for doing them justice, it would be your Booster or Batman or Nightwing or whoever so there is no wrong.  Primach hasn't done his intro post for Captain Marvel yet,(and this isn't a serious suggestion, but if Primarch turned Billy into some street rat, alcoholic who thinks Captain Marvel is just an alcohol induced hallucination he suffers from then that's his Billy it might not be cannon but it wouldn't be wrong.

apygoos

we as GMs have already established that Nightwingis around and Batman is Bruce Wayne. Either way, if you come up with something for a character sheet, send it out way.

Florence

If Green Arrow or Green Lantern are still free, I could try my take on one of those :o

And just a note, I haven't watched any of Arrow yet, so if I do Green Arrow it WON'T be based on that xD

As for Green Lantern... I'm more familiar with the Green Lantern as a concept than any particular individual Green Lantern, so would it be possible to have it be a new character that becomes the first Green Lantern of this Earth?

well if youre familiar with the concept, Hal Jordan would possibly be the best cannon GL for you to play. Hes a rather witty, and very imaginative/creative person, part of what makes him arguably one of the best GLs in all of time
Justice League Doom Movie Clip - The Green Lantern Always Gets His Girl heres a really good example

who did you have in mind? we could use another guy or two to have approved characters before we clamp up recruitment for now.

WashAutumstar

Well my next question would be is there a preferred universe that I should pick from, noticed that there is mostly marvel, didn't know if I should look for a DC character or if anyone cared

we could use some DC
Batman, Nightwing, The Flash, Cyborg, Green Arrow, Captain Atom may be good Male picks
as for female DC picks: Wonder Woman, Zatanna, Black Canary, Batgirl [Barbra Gordon], Artemis, Huntress may be good picks

I'm definitely interested. I'd like to make a commitment, but I need to wait until I finish my temporary role in Lunar's Classic X-Men game. But I'd like to play Deadpool in this game (which might help with the cross-over thing, because of how he breaks the fourth wall). It would likely be at least a few weeks away - if not a month or two. Pencil me in as Wade, and I'll keep you updated as I get a better idea of when I'll be finished with my other commitment.

I think I might be able to use Grayson or booster gold if they are open

Hal and Nightwing are open, just fill in a character sheet to Mai and myself whenever you decide. Time traveling heroes are a pain in the ass to deal with, so id rather not booster gold.

the CS we got was for Kyle Raner, so if he gets approved..if..Hal will be the second GL of earth when the time comes, and Raner got Aben's Ring.

on the note of Batman, why Val Kilmar? why not pull form his ancestors in the roles portryal? or maybe even from the original animates series, aka Kevin Connory [best batman voice, ever]

Batman from the Arkham games i think may be a good comparison for what i have envisioned for this game, but that's just me.

sorry batman and strife, we are closing recruitment at this time, as we have a large enough pool [for now] feel free to bookmark the game threads to keep up with the action and story, down the line we will likely open up for more recruits. you could feel free though to express which characters you would be interested in down the line. The direction of the game will impact how/when we reopen recruitment.

MaiMizzu

As the sign says, we're once again recruiting! We're looking (ideally) for a guy and a gal to join the game as canon characters.

Also as an update, we've decided to allow original characters. BUT you have to take a canon character first, and establish yourself in our RP.

If you want to join the fun, just find the CS template in the first post and mail me and Apygoos your CS!

Hope to hear from you soon!

we don't need Ms. Marvel, and someone has a claim on wonder woman that we are waiting to hear if they're still interested in joining.
The only male character interest we need right now is a Batman which we will be looking at very carefully.
while wonder woman is on potential interest reserve, we need a few more female characters on the roster. after we get those two more players, we will be closing recruitment once more.
