Well, you could always do a gender-bent version of a male character, which would fit this kind of AU version of things.
Considering a permanent retirement from Elliquiy, but you can find me on Blue Moon (under the same username).

Holy balls this thing took off fast.

1st choice - Hawkeye
2nd choice - Spider-Man
3rd choice - Moon Knight


Are any of those taken yet?  Is there a list?

Are you sure you want to play a character with no actual powers? I mean, I thought only the actually extraordinary would be in the academy...only Spidey on your list there is actually a real genuine superhuman.

Hawkeye is classified as a GM NPC, I think. I don't know about the others.

There's nothing wrong with characters with no powers. Frankly, they're some of my favorites because they have to use other cleverness to be awesome

As Ember said, Hawkeye is currently a GM NPC.

Spider-Man or Moon Knight are more than welcome.

Batman has no powers and is considered a superhero. So is Robin/Nightwing, green arrow, and ironman.
Be careful who you try to burn. You might just find that the other person knows how to play with fire better than you.

To be fair, DC Wiki says Arrow might have superhuman aim.

To be technical, wiki is able to be changed by humans and as long as the moderators there BELIEVE it's right, they will approve it. The comics and shows tell that he doesn't. He attained them by harsh punishment and the fact that his skills determined if he ate. Also, look at the series. He lost his aim while recovering. Powers wouldn't be lost temporarily due to having something to lose.

Emma Watson is Cassandra Lang?

It's like you took two of my favorite things and put them in a blender! :D

Though I'm sure many will disagree with your choice of equipment. They already invented clothing that grows and shrinks with her? Where's the trial and error and journey of discovery into finding out the appropriate clothing to wear? With many trials... and many failures. :I feel we've missed out on a big character development opportunity by skipping over what should've been a long and exhausting process of finding the perfect uniform that can adapt to her unique abilities. ;)

Speaking of wikis. Four different ones all one have like a paragraph on Pixie 's childhood. Which is fine, just means more work writing up fluffy fuller. Lol. They did tell me her height and weight though, oddly she's exactly the same height and weighed close to the same as me. Although I thought I remembered her being smaller, says she's 5'5" and 130lb (I'm 5'5" and 125lb)

Oh no, I feel as if I've been horribly misinterpreted. I love Emma Watson being the faceclaim of Cassandra Lang, since both are pretty awesome.

The rest of my post is just me being stoopid silly. :P

She can shrink, can't she?
No. Her only natural abilities are her wings and pixie dust. Then later she can teleport  via magic and had a Soul dagger that was made when a bit of her soul was cut out of her. She has the ability to learn more magic, but hasnt yet in the comics.

Now in a alternate world she has the teleporting as one of her natural powers, not magic.

But no shrinkage

Gotcha.  I looked her up when you first proposed her, but I obviously forgot what all she could do.  Stopped reading comics long before she was introduced.

Hmm... I'm considering playing as either Bobby Drake or Nate Summers (an amalgamation of Nate Grey and Nathan Summers).

I'm not a avid reader of comics myself. But somebody suggested a long time ago that I would like her and when I looked her up they were proven right. Lol. I've been considering playing her for a long time. But opportunity never lined up before.

Just a note: we're not ready for clones, time travelers, or people from the future yet.  This game universe is relatively young and you have to wait until season 2 or 3 before you start introducing people who can unravel the entire timeline.  :P

Also, if I have my way there will not be a Phoenix force introduced into this game.  Just sayin.  ;)

THANK YOU!

Honestly, I might be able to actually enjoy Jean without that damn Phoenix force. Hate that whole arc, main reason why I didnt like X-3

Hey I know we have been talking over PM's about my character but can I assume that I have been approved?
