The "World of Heroes" DC RPG Season IV Signup/OOC Thread

[Batman]

Marvel OOC is like the cool frat house with keg parties every night and jello fights on saturdays.

...jello fights? Why wasn't I invited to one of those? :confused: :eek:

[trustyside-kick]

Hehe I like high tea. :)

I love being random and crap...reason why Family Guy is such a great show. :up:

[trustyside-kick]

No he was sent to the future where we aged him *nice going, DC copying us* and then we deaged him before we brought him back. He went off to 'find' himself.

Too many people have went off to "find themselves". I mean what the hell? :(

[Batman]

And no, Kid Flash was brought back. He didn't die at all, anyway, since he was actually propelled into the Legion future, but eventually returned.

No he was sent to the future where we aged him *nice going, DC copying us* and then we deaged him before we brought him back. He went off to 'find' himself.

Oh.

...

Ignore my post. :o

[Batman]

Superheroing is an emotional buisness, trusty. Sometimes you just gotta have some time to yourself.

*goes back to risking own life in mindless combat*

[Red]

This Thread is weird...

Marvel OOC is like the cool frat house with keg parties every night and jello fights on saturdays.

DC OOC is the jigh end upper crust one. "Oh, don't crumb on the carpet."
"Have a wedge of cheese and some Burgundy?"

Do the awards, it will soon turn things around.

[trustyside-kick]

I still find it retarded that so many people have ended playing with (or using as an NPC) a character with the character "trying to find themself".

Like I said:

Too many people have went off to "find themselves". I mean what the hell?

[twylight]

...jello fights? Why wasn't I invited to one of those? :confused: :eek:


I told SF to- oh..I told SF..:(

It was just Trigger and I anyway....

[Red]

They don't its just our explaination for their absence.

[SuperFerret]

Next season, J'onn's going to be a reserve member of the newly formed JLA, because he's going to find himself.



I'm not kidding.

[twylight]

Too many people have went off to "find themselves". I mean what the hell? :(

It's an uber easy way to shuffle introduced characters off and a super easy way to bring them back as a PC character...I mean...look at Huntress and Oracle..:o :o

[Charlie No-One]

I thought the most used excuse for people's absence was death? I mean I killed tons of people as Scarecrow and then they came back and went to find themselves...so I guess I just walked around in a circle.

[twylight]

Next season, J'onn's going to be a reserve member of the newly formed JLA, because he's going to find himself.



I'm not kidding.

You can't do that because Dinah has to find herself to.....literally. :cmad:

[trustyside-kick]

Exactly why I dislike the idea of it...use it for like 1 character? sure...but just using it as an easy way to end a character and bring them back is stupid.

When I stop using Jason it won't be "to find himself". And if I choose one of the other "methods" used to end my playing with him it would not be a way to where he could come back.

[twylight]

We could form little schools for them and have them be there until we want to pull them out. :huh:

[twylight]

Even better...RPG wide Crisis..all the unused characters die and then we start fresh, from the very beginning. :)

[Red]

Honestly trusty does it matter?

[trustyside-kick]

I don't see why for some characters or NPCs you need to do that just to stop playing them or something. I mean Jason beat the hell outta Booster Gold...I used him as an NPC...should I have him try to find himself just cause Jason proved that he was a fraud and all? Hell no that would be beyond retarded...I just left it at Booster recovering in the hospital. Who cares what else happens with him.

Honestly trusty does it matter?

Yea it does matter. If I wanted to pick up any of those characters that "went to find themself" I would have to explain all the crap they went through while "trying to find themself". I didn't play the character before that happened...so how could I make it work smoothly? I think the idea is stupid if used too much.

[Red]

Because someone might sign up as him, then don't want to play character that has 1 arm.

Its just an excuse to write off characters, nothing more.

[trustyside-kick]

Its just an excuse to write off characters, nothing more.

That is why I hate it so much. That would be like over-using the Lazarus Pits to bringing people back to life even though technically it is only supposed to give life back to the dying..not the dead.

I think someone needs to go to NPC therapy to find himself.
:csad:

You don't need to explain them "finding themselves" its more of a running joke than anything.

[trustyside-kick]

You don't need to explain them "finding themselves" its more of a running joke than anything.

Actually appearently we do....twy said that when Apprentice was thinking about playing Huntress.

[Red]

Its just this simple: Its just a running joke to explain the absence of some characters.

You reading a bit too much into it.

[Speedball]

Speedball

Roy and Dick should still be standing there with the Water Treatment. :)

So..you don't need a Green Lantern. :)

Also you mentioned that you were waiting for Trigger and P-Man so I figured we'd move on.
OH! I thought they went with you. I'll fix it.

[SuperFerret]

I'll be fleshing out J'onn's little sabbatical while I play him. He's got alot to think about now that he's turning the big 1-0-0-0.

[Red]

It will have to be a big cake to get all those candles on.

[trustyside-kick]

Unless they wanna be cheap and just buy a 1 and 3 0's candles.

[Red]

Well thats just cheating.

[wiegeabo]

Unless they wanna be cheap and just buy a 1 and 3 0's candles.


They'll just put one small candle on a thousand Oreos. And then watch him pass out from all the flames.

[SuperFerret]

LOL


Actually, I'm going by the Morrisonian "Flames of Passion" weakness, so it wouldn't affect him like that.

[twylight]

To be honest I have no idea what's going on With Huntress in the RPG no one ever played her and when we had a remanant of the BoP we addressed Huntress as being away. i.e. gone that's about it.

As for Babs she did dissappear..after she gained the ability to walk, and Bart truly did go to find himself...he even turned down Supergirls admittance of love to find himself..that dirty jerk! :cmad:

[Green Lantern]

Jesse QUick..is...a character...No one has used her to my knowledge, however BnK has put in a request to be able to NPC her next season. But please, don't let that stop you. PC's are first priority before NPCs, so it's your choice.She's been baby sitting Lian all season....

It will have to be a big cake to get all those candles on. That many candles would scare the **** outta J'Onn....

[twylight]

She's been baby sitting Lian all season....

That many candles would scare the **** outta J'Onn....

Oh..yes..Iremember that post now..she's been baby sitting :)


Can Dinah just come dressed as an Oreo or would the woman in J'onns life freak out?

Even better:

Little Girl : "Hey daddy we made you a chocolate cake."

J'onn :"Thank you-"

Dinah: "What the **** Hell?! J'onn likes Oreos!"
"I should know I busted my back carrying those boxes of them in!"

[Supergirl]

I think J'onn would freak out. And then bad things would happen. Dirty, naughty, unspeakable things...
...
...
...
...sorry, my mind drifted. What were talking about again? :O

[SuperFerret]

Can Dinah just come dressed as an Oreo or would the woman in J'onns life freak out?

Ah, yes, that was a fun night, wasn't it twy? ;)

[twylight]

Full of cream filled goodness.

Full of cream filled goodness.

Shh... you're making MB cry.

[Green Lantern]

Ah, don't sweat that, he cries at reruns of the O.C. too.

[Batman]

Ah, don't sweat that, he cries at reruns of the O.C. too.

It's true. :(

Even though I've never seen a single episode and/or rerun of the O.C. :confused:

[Spike_x1]

A neat little tidbit: Anyone who has Kryptonian font installed on their computer can see that Rudy actually was using Kryptonese when he was first talking to Superman, and then when he used his telepathy on him.

And if you don't have that font on your comp, then it just looks like plain English, so it doesn't make a difference, but I think it adds a little something for those people who do have it. :)Anyone here actually have Kryptonian font on their comp? :confused:

[SuperFerret]

I didn't know there was one until you mentioned it.

[twylight]

Shh... you're making MB cry.


It's okay, the make-up for him will be worth the tears.

Anyone here actually have Kryptonian font on their comp? :confused:


Err...*looks the other way quickly*

...the eyeshadow turns her on. I swear! :cmad:

My last post, #2201.

Then no...I don't have that font. :O

...I want to feel pretty when I wear it.

Then you aren't thinking out of the box. Where is the tootoo and tiara?

[Green Lantern]

He prefers wearing fishnets and halter tops. What can he say, he's a bit of a **** :o

[Batman]

Well, I do play Dick Grayson... :o

[Green Lantern]

...See folks? He insults himself, I don't even need to do it anymore... good dog

[Purple Man]

Don't be a ***** Charlie.

Either way, Purple, I'm sad to see you go. I haven't always liked your ideas and you sometimes come off as rather pushy about them (although that shows a dedication that I don't think is necessarily bad), but you're not a bad RP'er and I hope you stick around, and try and figure something else out. There are many ways to go outside of the box while staying in it after all. Also, for the record, since I probably haven't done so yet, Happy B-Day to you.

Lastly, I really wish this RPG would lighten up. Most of you have been a bunch of tightwads lately.

Very true. I've noticed that I do tend to be pushy sometimes about my ideas. I'm not trying to justify my behavior, but I just tend to push back, when I feel that people aren't having an open mind.

I hate to leave, but I had a very good feeling about my Dr.Fate story, and would have much enjoyed sharing it with you all.

All I asked for was to have a little faith, I was promising not to dissapoint. The way I see it. Why not take a chance with my Dr.Fate? Would it really be that terrible for me to try something a little different. It's not like there are a million people flooding this thread with Fate proposals that my idea should get instantly thrown away.

And I do agree that a lot of people have been acting like tightwads. This is supposed to be for fun. And if someone comes up with a fun idea, why not give them the benefit of the doubt and at least hear them out before sending their idea to the gallows.

I swear, this is a message board RPG. No one should be so uptight about "rules".

I'm sorry for being so confrontational, but I am not backing down regarding my Dr.Fate storyline. It is one of those bizarre somethings that I would love to share if everyone could just accept what I want to do doesn't exactly fall into the rules.

[Batman]

...See folks? He insults himself, I don't even need to do it anymore... good dog

No, I'm just method RPG'ing. Like Christian Bale and acting. He had his trailer read 'Bruce Wayne' on the set of Batman Begins... I act like a **** to be Dick Grayson. It all works out. :o

Dude... the rules are there for a reason. They're not just little snippets that we put there for fun... they're expected to be followed. Now, I have no problem with you playing an existing Fate... You're a capable RPG'er. But what you're proposing is like me picking up a mystery character and saying that I'm gonna be the new Batman. It just doesn't work like that, and I wouldn't be allowed to do so, even though I'm a GM of this game.

[Purple Man]

The rules should be flexible under certain circumstances.

I offered a good proposal. I gave everyone my word that my Dr.Fate storyline would be worth the rule bending.

The only reason I'm still arguing is because I'm so passionate about this idea. If it were just some stray thought that I decided to latch onto, I wouldn't put up a fuss.

Again, I'm just doing the job I got asked to do. If Twy wants to override my ruling, so be it, thats up to her.

And if we weren't uptight about the 'rules' and every one did every thing they wanted, it would be a massive mess. Like it or not, we can't break the rules for one person without doing it for anyone who asks. I'm sorry, but I'm just trying to keep order.

If it were just some stray thought that I decided to latch onto, I wouldn't put up a fuss.Many of the rules ARE flexible, and have evolved. It used to be that you couldn't space travel, or time travel. Given the right proposals those were taken out. Some aren't flexible. Whenever someone applies as Darkseid for example. He's too powerful, he falls under that god category. Creating a new person to take an existing mantle also falls under that. Noone is stopping you from writing fan-fiction, its just it would be hard for us to interact with someone we know nothing about because he never existed before hand.

Why didn't I think of this sooner? How about I post my proposal and we put it to a vote? If the idea of some unkown wearing the helm of Nabu is too unreasonable for everyone, I will shut up and never propose any of my radical ideas again. If the vote goes my way, everyone should consider being a little bit more open about the rules.

[Charlie No-One]

No, the GM's have sided. They don't want that, and I am sure a vote wouldn't do much good since you are the only one wanting to change the rules. So, please, stop with the hounding when you got the answer multiple times.

[Purple Man]

He wouldn't be hard to interact with. Most characters don't even know who Hector Hall is, and those that did know who he is, would wonder why Nabu chose someone else, which would lead to interesting conversation.

Maybe people would start distrusting Fate because he isn't Mr.Hall and neglects to mention the whereabouts of Hector. How would the capes confront someone as powerful as Fate?

Think of it like when Azrael was Batman. Azrael was Batman, but he wasn't the Batman, and a lot of the other heroes knew it. And we all know it was only a matter of time until the real Batman returned to reclaim his mantle.

And the answer to my proposal was only answered by CNO and GL. While I value your oppinions, you do not accurately represent the majority of the rpg. So I still say it goes to vote.

[Charlie No-One]

How about you let Twylight decide? She is the head GM so she should give the final word. Thus getting rid of bickering and fighting.

[SuperFerret]

He would be EXCEEDINGLY hard to interact with. Adding new powers aside, there's no precedence set for the character, therefore there's no way anyone can claim that you're acting out of character. If I suddenly had J'onn turn around and start killing Justice League members, I'd better have a good explanation for it, as it is definitely not within J'onn's character to do so. Nobody would know what to expect when this new Fate shows up (and btw, I'm under the impression that the hero community knows Hector is Fate, I could be wrong though), and that hinders play.

[Speedball]

As appealling as it sounds Purple Man, I have to vote no as well.
It really is something for the Ultimate RPG.
You can establish Hector as the first helmbearer(i like how that sounds) there. Then have your character take over just like you said.

If everyone is willing to at least listen to my ideas, I will gladly take the time to answer any questions you may have.

I sort of planned my Dr.Fate to be sort of aloof, more of a mystical force than another super hero. Fate went on a journey through his tower, and a pretender usurped his power. Hector would be trapped in the tower for some time while I establish the new Fate.

Speaking of magical characters? Anyone thinking of playing Zatanna next season? We could use some more magical characters.

[Charlie No-One]

The idea would work better in Ultimate DC RPG. To my knowledge, it isn't against the rules either.

[Green Lantern]

The idea would work better in Ultimate DC RPG. To my knowledge, it isn't against the rules either.Exactly. That is what the UDC RPG is for.

[Purple Man]

No. In that universe he would be the first Dr.Fate. I plan on playing off the heritage

I'm done arguing with you guys. Your minds are shut.

I will leave the fate of Fate in Twys capable hands. She has been nothing but fair with me since I've joined so if she says I'm out of line with my ideas then I can walk away without feeling like I was getting richarded around.

[Green Lantern]

We're being fair Purple Man. You aren't listening to our explanations. Hector played a HUGE role in Season II. After he reclaimed the power of Fate from Mordru. Most of the heroes know him because he saved all of their butts from the fire.

[Charlie No-One]

No, you can say, in the UDRPG, that you are the second Dr. Fate, and use the same story.

[Green Lantern]

Are the Lantern's on the general hero frequency?

[Franklin Richards]

Yup.

[Green Lantern]

Good, gives me something to quip :o

[twylight]

Alright, P-Man I appreciate the trust.
*breathes deeply..no pressure..no pressure...*

Alright, I am more than willing to listen to your story idea, from what I've gathered you'd like make Dr. Fate a new person, one who's never been seen in the DCU before, correct?

That is the issue isn't it?
To an extent a certain amount of creative license is needed to evolve the RPG. This evolution propels it forward, not just in the gameplay it's self but also in the actual story telling. I totally agree with that, however as gamemaster I have to look past my own ideas and take into account what the players have expressed without going to drastic measures to decide.

This RPG was started with the purpose to be a place to create stories for mainstream DC Comics, over time the ‘rules’ have changed as have the ideas, but we’ve always kept the arcs and the characterizations in the RPG as close to the source as we could while still moving forward. What we are feeling now is the extreme growing pains of an RPG that has not changed and shifted as much as the comics it was based off of have. Many people are trying to stretch their wings within it, without hindering other players characters or ideas, that have not yet reached the level of wanting drastic changes.

The majority of the players keep their characters very close to the source from which they come or had come from, not very many changes have been made. For the few who did want change and the ability to play around with alternative ideas the One Universe RPG, The Ultimate DC RPG and the Multiverse RPG were created to satiate the desires of those few ready to take a leap into new character development.

On a personal level, I am more than willing to consider it further and perhaps even approve it, given the very negative feedback it has received. However, because of the large amount of backlash the idea has received I do not think that at this time it’s conducive to stretch the RPG farther along in its continuing evolution by going the route of self-created characters taking center stage or taking on the mantle of an already established character.

This is not only a upholding of the ‘rules’ we’ve all inherited from the beginning of this RPG, but also a reflection of the present mentality of the players within the RPG. This RPG is simply not ready for that leap yet, it is not yet treated as it’s own DC Comics continuity, merely it is treated as an almost completely enclosed extension of the DC Comics universe. A gifting of the present characters within the present DCU, nothing more and nothing less. In the future I truly hope we can move the storytelling of the RPG along and perhaps seperately from the DC Comics Universe it was based on.

This is not meant to constrain you as at this present time I have, of my own, a player-created character I am using as a plot device. However she will not be taking on the mantle of any established character, nor will she be a primary character, rather just an NPC. The line is this; no player-created characters may be allowed as primary characters, merely as supporting cast and plot devices. If at any time concern is expressed over a particular player created it will be reviewed then and a decision will be made, if it involves a GM, the decision will naturally be decided by the other GM’s with no favoritism or selectism will shown.


Purple Man I hope for you I have made the right decision and explained myself. If not feel free to ask questions. I really hope I make some sort of sense since it's late and I'm rather tired.

For everyone else I’d like to consider this matter closed. No comments please towards Purple Man about the matter.

[Batman]

Uh... wieg... mind if I edit? I sorta took Sinestro's response more seriously than it should've seemed, re-reading your post.

[wiegeabo]

Which one? When he bit Sinestro's head off, which I liked, sort of made him doubt himself, or the last post?

[Batman]

...It was the one where he bit Sinestro's head off. But seeing everyone else's responses, I decided to leave it in.

It seems like taking a 3 hour nap makes you miss alot.

Can someone acknowledge J'onns arrival?

Heh. Well why do you think I've done it for every post I've done since 2002?

Cause it's fun.

.....You'd think Diana would be more suprised over Dinah's return AND her flying :(

[SuperFerret]

She's tired. Give her a break.

[twylight]

NO! You give ME a break! :cmad:

I brought her back from the not-so-dead and crafted an entire world or her since before I had her killed in Season II. :cmad: :cmad:

YOU APPRECIATE MY WORK!

[wiegeabo]

Twylight's anger makes me cry. :(


And it kills kittens.

[Spike_x1]

I saw a kitty sleeping in the street today. It didn't even wake up after I hit it with my car. Again. :(:up:

[Spike_x1]

BTW everyone, thank you all for not jumping into the scene with Superman and the Parasite at the moment. I have very little time on the computer this weekend to post, and LibrarianThorne also said that he'd be away (I don't know to what extent exactly), so I think we both appreciate not being put into a position where something's happening to our characters that we can't respond to in the immediate future. Right now, I'm just awaiting LT's response to my attack, but I might not get a chance to read it until Monday, so no need to hurry in the least.

:)

[Keyser Soze]

Right, that's my closing post for the season up as The Joker. I plan to keep him in Arkham for a good part of next season. But don't worry, he'll still be very much active in the RPG.

[Apprentice]

.....You'd think Diana would be more suprised over Dinah's return AND her flying :(

I was going to comment on that in my next post, honest...I had it planned.

[The Question]

Hey guys. How long has it been since Ash Loomis posted?

Not since I re-joined last month.

Yeah. He was our Blue Beetle.

Final post as WW up. Hope it got ya all intrigued. There's a lotta stuff goin' on with both my gals (Diana and Jesse) next season.

[twylight]

Apprentice..great post! :up:...but........Their flying..and....it's confusing..does Diana dissappear? :huh:


Also...Someone wanna get us to our destination? Frankie maybe since he told us where to go?

ALso....LT..Spike..does the end of your fight close up the arc? If so what needs to be done to tie off the other lose ends? We can get to work on that.

The only loose ends for Lex are:

-Ras & Lex have unfinished business (also expect Superman & possibly Batman to show up for that)

-Lex will address the nation once everything is over...and this is where Lex really gets to cut loose.

[Johnny Blaze]

Once their fight is finished I'll do a final Eiling post to set things up. Other than that I'm good.

[The Question]

I'll do a few more Q posts to make sure I'm ready for next season. Then I'm out until we recomense.

Just wanted to notify ya'all that I'll be away for a week, y'know, in case the next season starts and you don't freak out and go: "OH NO, HARLE ISN'T HERE!?" with lots of :( smilies.

Fate will decide.

[twylight]

Double meaning there? :p

I already gave a decision a few pages back.

However, I'd like to talk to you about using the same idea in the Multiverse RPG...also since it's practically dead and no matter how much we prod it with a stick I'd like to take the reins on it for now and ask that you come up with one or two 'mission' ideas that we might be able to use there.

Though I'll give you a heads up...they might be tweeked a bit. ;)

Double meaning? Definitly. That sentence was the inspiration for my Dr.Fate story.

Fate, magic, reality. Fun little concepts I want to mess with. I threw a few PMs your way, Twy. Lemme know what you think.

I'd like the story to start in this rpg. Though it could easily branch off into the Multiversers, and may even become a catalyst for a crossover event that could invigorate new life into the comatose rpg.

I'd also like to take this time to ask what everyone thinks about my Superboy posts. I know they are rather brief compared to most of the posts on the board, but I like to think they're short and sweet. Though I could just be trying to be nice to myself.

I think if we EVER did a crossover "special event", it would have to be between the Marvel and DC RPGs. That would be awesome to do like over a one-month period or something, in between seasons.

[Purple Man]

I was going to suggest that too after we got the Multiversers back on its feet.

I have a couple ideas for a Marvel/DC crossover as well. Definitly worth looking into.

[Charlie No-One]

Isn't that the One Universe RPG?

[Johnny Blaze]

Yeah, that's why I thought OU was created for in the first place.



Personally, I wouldn't want to see a crossover with any of the RPGs (DC, Marvel, Multiverse, etc), but that's just me.

[Keyser Soze]

Yeah, that's why I thought OU was created for in the first place.



Personally, I wouldn't want to see a crossover with any of the RPGs (DC, Marvel, Multiverse, etc), but that's just me.

Yeah, I'm not sure if its one of these things that qualifies as "nice idea, but wouldn't work in practise." If it WAS done, it would have to be short-term, only for one work, and the logistics of the crossover would have to be carefully worked out.

Of course, I'd mainly be doing it to have my Joker interact with Electro UK's Deadpool...:o

[Johnny Blaze]

Well, I can see it done if players are given an option if they wish to be involved in it or not ('cause I probably would not be).
Maybe set it up on a distant world like a Secret Wars, or what not. That way the PCs who don't wish to participate won't be forced into anything they don't wish to be a part of.

[Purple Man]

Of course it's a bad idea if it's not well thought out.

If you have the plan, and the manpower than anything is possible.

It's only a bad idea when you don't want to put in the effort. I'd be willing to back it up 100% when the time is right. And the one universe rpg is for a combined universe while this idea would involve letting players play their characters from their respective rpgs.

Crossovers are always fun as long as they have a good premise.

I'd love to see a Dr.Doom and Lex Luthor team up. Or Dr.Strange and Dr.Fate.

[MST3K 4ever]

Let me know when you want to finish things off but Ra's/Lex/Supes only, honestly I'm not interested in working with JRK again.



All-right fair enough the 3 of us it is....whenever you want Ras to show up at the Lexcorp tower we can get to tying up our loose ends.

Ready whenever you are Red X.

[Charlie No-One]

I don't know, we already have something like that...I really don't think it is really needed. Maybe the real mods would even shut it down if they thought it was the same as the One Universe.

[Purple Man]

I don't know, we already have something like that...I really don't think it is really needed. Maybe the real mods would even shut it down if they thought it was the same as the One Universe.

It's nothing like One Universe. First it wouldn't have the same people playing the same characters as the One Universe rpg. It would be the people from the World of Heroes rpgs playing their characters, with their continuity meeting up with characters from the other universe through a not yet decided means.

For example, Twy could play her Scarlett Spider, and Black Canary, and see how they would interact. Or in my case, Superboy and the Sentry. Hmm. Would be interesting to match my Sentry with Thornes Superman. Or Reds Luthor meets Tony Stark.

The mods wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole, don't worry.

We can discuss the mechanics of such an undertaking a little later on. This is still a rough concept. Let's just not let this fall by the wayside.

[twylight]

I don't know, we already have something like that...I really don't think it is really needed. Maybe the real mods would even shut it down if they thought it was the same as the One Universe.

They wouldn't.


If it was a one time thing...one with a specific arc that only lasted a month or two...I think it would be sort of fun. :)

[Batman]

They wouldn't.

Exactly what I was thinking. Have a massive brain storming session to decide where we want to go with it. What will lead to it in the individual rpgs, and what impact it will have afterward.

It'll take some work, but I'm sure a dedicated few who want to roll with the idea can make it work.

I'm most definitly in.

This picture made me think we should skip the big cosmic plot and have something more villain centric.

Why would the mods touch?
It sounds cool.
Gog versus Thanos in space.
That would be the greatest battle EVER!

Darkseid v. Thanos would be the greatest battle ever. Heck, I'll let Thanos have the Inifnity Gauntlet, too. He'll need a handicap. ;)

Only if someone plays Darkseid in the DC Rpg.
Unless we have him fight a NPC.

Yeah...
You would fight him.
Maybe Gog could help.
Or I could fight Ronan the Accuser.

[twylight]

The people don't have to stick with just the characters they normally play in each RPG. :o

Seconded.

But as mentioned, only if people have a choice of taking part or not.


Wait..so I don't get to use my whip? :huh:

[Purple Man]

I think the main three villains from each universe would probably be.

Marvel- Thanos, Dr.Doom, Ultron

DC- Darkseid, Luthor, Brainiac

It has that sort of symmetry going on.

I also wouldn't mind seeing Taskmaster and Deathstroke, maybe throw in Magneto too to see how he reacts to a world without mutants.

These sort of things we could discuss forever.

[Red]

The concept of a DC/Marvel acrossover is interesting, however I think for a lot of reasons it should remain just that a concept.

Its has alot of holes...

What do you do if people don’t want to be in the crossover? Do you alienated players for the sake of the crossover? What if someone from Marvel doesn't have a vast knowledge of DC and are thrown into an arc where they simply get confussed or vice versa.

[Keyser Soze]

Incorrect!

Darkseid v. Thanos would be the greatest battle ever. Heck, I'll let Thanos have the Inifnity Gauntlet, too. He'll need a handicap. ;)

Incorrect!

The Joker and Deadpool trading "Yo momma" jokes would be the BEST BATTLE EVER! :up:

As for the crossover, like Twilight said, it would only work if it was something short-term, for one specific arc. And like Purple Man said, you'd have to have the logistics worked out. But I also think it would need most of the players involved in each RPG for it to be a success. What's a crossover if most of the main players are absent? If it ended up that the majority of players weren't interested in getting involved, I wouldn't go ahead with the idea.

When would we do it (IF we're doing it, we're just tossing around ideas right now :) )? I'd say that we try and line up both the Marvel and DC RPGS so Season V ends for each at the same time. Then, we take like a month hiatus between seasons to do the crossover story. Then we go back to doing our respective seperate sixth seasons.

[Trigger]

I'm not sure I'd like a crossover to be honest. It sounds nice, but I honestly don't know if I could genuinely contribute anything to it. Other than tagging along with the Titans, I don't see Rose having much to do inside such an arc.

[trustyside-kick]

Hey guys I haven't been around much lately...so I just finally read the 4 pages I missed...

So about the Crossover...that could be really cool...imagine a fight between people like Deathstroke/Deadshot/Deadpool/David Cain/etc. That would be amazing I think.

[Red]

*Sigh*

Thats seems to be the only vaild reason people want a crossover for the "cool factor".

[Batman]

The point of RPG's are to have fun... And a Crossover sounds fun to me.

[Red]

I'm not saying there not, but people only seem to be interested in a crossover so they can fight someone that couldn't normally.

[Purple Man]

Every idea, every concept has holes. We just need to take the effor to fill them in.

If someone doesn't want to be in the crossover, they could umm...Not be in the crossover?

Though I'm hard pressed to understand a valid reason to not want to be in the crossover. Any chance for character development I would think would be jumped upon.

People getting confused if they don't know who a character is from the opposite universe? There's wikipedia for that. Or forget Wikipedia and just let yourself learn who these characters are through your character. This is their first time meeting these characters so if you have a question about the character, have your character ask. And I'm sure your fellow players would help with any questions you have.

There's a lot of holes, but I'm confident I can fill them in. The only way these ideas fail is if everyone adopts your negativity. If you think it will fail, it'll surely fail. That's why while you're trying to tell us why it won't work, I'm creating ways for it to work.

It's a shame that some people don't put their talents to better use.

[Red]

Honestly Purple just because I disagree with your idea, as a few others have I might add, you have to make it personal.

[twylight]

Incorrect!

.....

I don't know what alternate reality you live in to even think it was conceivable...but I kinda wish I was there. :(

Eiterht the Marvel RPG would have to run longer or the DC one would have to run shorter.

and it would be a HUGE amount of coordination on the part of the GM's. I don't doubt we can do it..all the GM's are linked with MSN, but we'd have to see if they're all up to it because sotories would have to keep moving and the Seasons would have to end around the relatively same time.

[twylight]

I'm not saying there not, but people only seem to be interested in a crossover so they can fight someone that couldn't normally.

Yes, because all we ever do is fight...

What if the story premise was that the Heroes fought together against a common enemy?

Red, you need to losen up.


On the same note:

Purple Man Yes, it is your idea, however once more people get involved in planning it I can guarantee that it won't go exactly as you planned. Can you be able to accept that?

[Purple Man]

Hmm. I wasn't sure if I was the first person to bring it up.

To be honest I don't have any plans at all. Just some random ideas for team ups and what not. Superman/Sentry, Ultron/Brainiac, Dr.Strange/Dr.Fate, Man-Thing/Swamp-Thing. Maybe make a connection between the Negative and Phantom Zones. The other eye of Agamotto.

We'll have to get creative with this and not let it become another JLA/Avengers.

Maybe this time Batman and Captain America can actually fight one another.

[twylight]

Just so long as the different ideas for it don't turn into a huge fighting match. :)

[Purple Man]

Though seeing the Sentry and Superman throw down would be awesome, I think I'd try and go the road less traveled and have the Sentry show a great deal of respect to Superman, sort of give a wink and a nod towards the fact that the Sentry is Marvels version of Superman. They could probably learn a lot from eachother.

Ultron and Brainiac, though you would think that two metal maniacs wouldn't get along, I think they would find it both in their best interests to work together. Maybe even combine together to become the most evil A.I. the universes have ever seen.

Dr.Strange and Dr.Fate could be the catalyst for this all. I always thought it was weird that Agamotto only had one eye. Was he a cyclops? Maybe the other eye was yet to be discovered in the DC Universe. The eyes could be Agamottos way of watching over each respective universe.

Just a few ideas I thought I would throw out. Best to get this ball rolling now.

Hey. Sorry about not posting even after the weekend ended, but the things I was taking care of over Saturday and Sunday have spilled out into the week, leaving me without a reliable computer. I finally managed to briefly get ahold of a machine for a short period of time (enough to check on things and maybe get a short post up, which I am doing right now).

[Trigger]

Final post for the season is up. Purple go ahead and wrap things up on your side.

[Franklin Richards]

Uhhhh... Spike. You guys are surrounded by 4 walls made by 4 power rings. You've got plenty of room but there is no way in hell we're gonna let Supes be thrown at the civilian district.

I'd say that we wouldn't need to make the DC RPG shorter. The Marvel RPG is already shaping up to be longer: we're north of 1000 posts, and most of the storylines still seem to be in the "foreshadowing" and "set-up" stages. :D

But like I said, this is just us talking, we're not planning anything serious yet. And if the idea isn't a popular one, I wouldn't go through with it. A big crossover isn't fun unless everyone (or nearly everyone) is into it.

[Red]

Forgive me but where is Luthor currently?

[Spike_x1]

Uhhhh... Spike. You guys are surrounded by 4 walls made by 4 power rings. You've got plenty of room but there is no way in hell we're gonna let Supes be thrown at the civilian district.


:thing: :doom: :thing:Nobody has put up any walls yet :confused:. All that's happened so far on that front is Hal planning to put up walls.

Besides, even if the walls were up, it's not unheard of at all for constructs made with power rings to be broken. Superman has broken them plenty of times before with raw brute strength, and currently the Parasite has the strength of J'onn J'onzz (near equal to Superman), Blackrock (equal to Superman), Neutron (near equal to Superman), a zillion Riots (each of them have a small amount of superstrength), some GL power, and some of Superman's power.

In fact, I'd be completely surprised if Rudy didn't break a GL construct if he went up against one right now.

[Franklin Richards]

I didn't know I had to show every little detail. In TV that's called "Chopping Wood". Heh.

Hal thinks about taking a leak.
Hal lowers his zipper.
Hal pulls out his thing.
Urine comes out of Hal's thing.
Hal sighs with relief.

Sorry, I'll get more boring with my posts. :D

And I'm pretty tired of Green Lantern constructs breaking like balsa wood. Rudy put most of his strength into the actual punch. Supes would prolly bounce off the construct.

But ok. I guess next time I'll not waste my time by trying to contain the battle and just jump in.

We respected your privacy, can't you throw us a bone by acknowledging our "lumberjacking"?

I had fun my first season with you guys. Especially Thorne for playing such a bad to the bone Superman, and Trigger for being such a b*tch (I mean that in a good way, I swear!), also Speedball because Superboy just isn't as interesting when he doesn't have Robin to hang with.

[twylight]

...Can I get an answer from Tim, Dick and Roy?

Or they come with to inform the military.

[LibrarianThorne]

Nobody has put up any walls yet :confused:. All that's happened so far on that front is Hal planning to put up walls.

Besides, even if the walls were up, it's not unheard of at all for constructs made with power rings to be broken. Superman has broken them plenty of times before with raw brute strength, and currently the Parasite has the strength of J'onn J'onzz (near equal to Superman), Blackrock (equal to Superman), Neutron (near equal to Superman), a zillion Riots (each of them have a small amount of superstrength), some GL power, and some of Superman's power.

In fact, I'd be completely surprised if Rudy didn't break a GL construct if he went up against one right now.

In regards to Blackrock and Neutron, I ask you to recall that post-Crisis Superman is well known for holding back a tremendous portion of his power, as he doesn't want to damage Metropolis during his battles. He has only rarely gone all out against anyone (I think Doomsday and Darkseid are the only enemies he's gone full tilt against), and I'd just like it known that Big Blue is going completely all out during this fight. Hence all the apocalyptic devastation and such going on.

[Keyser Soze]

Well, now that the 4th Season of the DC RPG is coming to a close, perhaps it would be fun to discuss what our aims for Season V are?

For me, my main aim is to take The Joker back to his routes. I feel that, this season, The Joker has become somewhat lost in the shuffle. Part of the cause of this has been my inability to consistently commit to the RPG this season, due to a cavalcade of other commitments. But it's more than that.

I still feel that BY FAR my best arc as The Joker was my first one, the one I did with JRK back in Season 2 that culminated in Alfred's death. I was really happy with that, and rank it as some of the best writing I've ever done. But since then, I think as my plans have got bigger and bigger - the variety of doomsday devices, the Unity arc, amassing a team of supervillains, becoming Mayor of Gotham - I've lost sight of the character himself. That's why I gave him a well-earned rest after his capture earlier this season. So I could bring The Clown Prince of Crime back with a fresh approach.

But with Season V, I really want to take The Joker back to that original intensity. When you're killing thousands at a time, it can become almost numbing. So I'm going to try and make The Joker's homicidal insanity personal, and individual, and chilling. The Joker should be a genuinely terrifying character, and I want to try and recreate that. I want to delve into that twisted mind, and really get into what makes the character tick: and so I'll be keeping him in Arkham for a while to give him an environment where such development comes naturally. And when he is eventually unleashed on the wider world, I want to make The Joker a force to be reckoned with again.

To state it simply, I won't rest until I've secured a clean sweep of the Best Villain prize at the Awards! :joker:

I don't think she would've had a dramatically different reaction. Being killed and suddenly revived (against your will) makes a person pretty cold. I think my goal for next season is to flesh out her feelings on the situation more and her finding a bigger purpose. With Super-Girl and Deathstroke around next season, Rose will get a little more time to develop.

[Watchman]

I have a few goals for my characters next season. I'm going to refine the character of the Scarecrow. First, I'm going to work on developing Jonathan Crane as a character. My portrayal of him will like of a Hannibal Lecter type figure. A very intellgent person, the man developed a gas that makes people see their own fears you would have to have a high level of intellgence to be able to tap into a person's brain like that, but very insane and creepy.

In one part of Hush Batman states that he does not want to speak to Scarecrow he wants to talk to Crane. I'm going to show this when Crane puts on the mask he goes from crazed professor thats obsessed with fear to something of nightmares. I'm going to make Scarecrow scary again instead of some villain who just dresses up as one. Sure there may be one threat of coating the whole city with fear gas but my other plans are just downright dreadful. He won't need the fear gas to frighten people anymore.

:super: :gl: :ww: :batty:

Sigh... still no J'onn smiley. :(


Anyway, on the cross-over idea, I don't think it'd work well with a full on cross-over, but if maybe only one or two characters from each universe made the switch, it'd be more managable as it would be during a season, and those who want no part of it can avoid the character.

As for my goals with J'onn, I'm thinking of showing his "family-man" side a bit more.

[Batman]

With Nightwing, I want to spend more time in Bludhaven, being more of the hero that he is rather than simply Batman's protege in Gotham. Every season I've played him in, he's been in Gotham, helping with whatever problem has occured. Not this season. Of course he probably will end up there at some point, but first and foremost, he's going to be his own hero... More independant, like he is in the comics. I have other goals too, pertaining to characters like Arsenal, J'onn, and Supergirl... But I'd rather keep them quiet for now. (They all know, so it's not like I'm doing any of it without their permission.)

With Superman, I'm going to build him up from where he's left off and remind people why he is Earth's champion... and why he's the rightful leader of the Justice League. He'll take a stand against every major problem that arises, and he'll do it with confidence, because of the hero that he is. He's much more than a man that can fly, and I'm going to show that.

[Purple Man]

Though I prefer the full on crossover. This idea is interesting as well. Maybe swap Superman and Sentry, Batman and Spider-Man.

How would Superman effect the Marvel Universe? Could Spidey clean up Gotham? Would the Sentry save or destroy Metropolis? Also, Batman would fit in pretty good with more of the street level heroes.

[Apprentice]

Wonder Woman: Well, I'm gonna put Diana through the ringer next season. It'll be shocker after shocker after shocker, with betrayals, action, and one hell of a final battle. It's mother vs daughter, prince vs princess, friend vs enemy! One new villain will be introduced, as will a host of old foes. I want to show every aspect of Diana - Diana the warrior, Diana the princess, Diana the heroine...but most importantly, simply Diana.

Jesse Quick: Jesse never really got much respect in the main DCU, and she never made it as a hero here. She may not have been noticed when Superman fought for Metropolis, or the Justice League reformed, but she was there. Unfortunately, being there wasn't enough to make her a hero. She's a loser, and she spends her days drowning her sorrows. Then, a mystery stranger shows up offering to make her a true star. If only she realised it was too good to be true...it's time to take Jesse from zero to hero!

Stop complaining. :p



Also the Cross-over idea would have been it's own seperate thread/RPG.

As Keyser suggested it would have been a break from the Marvel and DC RPG's for just that one 'special' that would last for a month or two tops.

Nothing that would effect the regular running continuity of either Marvel or DC RPG

[wiegeabo]

Sinestro's business is his own.

But the season will end with him becoming the hero he has been working to be since coming back to Earth. Infact, I'm sort of hoping the entire JLA will be available for the culminating event. (What would be really great is if the new League never really works together as cohesive team during the season, but finally come together to work as one during the event.)

Redundant.

If it has no bearing on either game's continuity, then there's no point. It's just the One Universe RPG all over again.

Would be it's own thread? That would be wierd...I wouldn't want the crossover then. The main reason I liked it was that our characters would affect both Universes.

*shrugs*

Or not and no, it wouldn't be the One Universe.

The One Universe is a combination of Marvel and DC, no seperate timelines, it's all one large universe. All the origins are tied together, be they Marvel or DC Characters, because of this there is no defining 'DC' or 'Marvel' characters. It's all just 'One Universe' :o

A Cross-over would be two seperate universes meeting eachother for perhaps the first time *Depends on how we want to play it*

Anyway it's just an idea that's floating around right now. Nothing serious.

[Batman]

Not really. One Universe consists of every hero in their early days... none of them are really experienced at all. Plus, people play different characters over there... And everyone has a different interpretation. In premise, it would be One Universe. In storytelling, it would be anything but.

My only real plan so far is have Superboy dieing in the hospital, until some mysterious person decides to heal him. It's not who you think.

And if I get my hands on Dr.Fate would Jesse Quick be interested in joining the JSA?

Anyone else want to try and fill out the JSA?

[Red]

Wouldn't Conner get cured of the virus like everyone else?

Well you can expect to see from my portrayal as Deathstroke in Season V?

A lot of dark and mature themes: Betrayal, torture and murder will feature prominently.

But what of the mercenary himself?

Slade has been known to change his stance as villain to be somewhat heroic if he believes in what he is fighting, what I plan to do however is play up the other side of that philosophy: Slade’s dark urges.

Slades motavation will also be changed to reflect his “situation” in Season V; he won’t be fighting for money or status but instead his very survival.

Dinah

Dinah is going to go back to her roots as she tries to recover what she's lost in all that she's gained. I'm going to be bringing her back to the Blonde Bombshell ya'll know and love, but only after she is able to still the many conflicting memories in her head.
Mission wise the verdict is still out there are several 'groups' she could be a part of and until those things have been pounded out I don't know where I'm going to go with her in reguards to actual 'action'.

Villian

Yes, I'm playing a villlian this next season, no, I won't tell you who. ;)

[Johnny Blaze]

Well, for Eiling I just want to have a good opening story that will provide a good test for the newly reformed JLA, and that will be entertaining to read. *fingers crossed*

After that I plan on picking up another villain who has been in this RPG before but has not been used in a long, long time. Who it will be...well, we'll find out together when the time comes. ;)

[SuperFerret]

Ah, so you do intend to keep J'onn eh? That's cool.

Yes, I do. I have alot planned for him and......... :eek: If you're thinking what I think you think I'm thinking about telling you I think you're thinking about then we will have to talk it out.

Green Arrow:I'm going to give Ollie a lot to do on his plate. Firstly being when he gets the chance, to rebuild whatever has to be rebuild in Star. Second, to reconnect more with the people of the city. Possibly even electing himself as mayor. Also, I'm going to be having a few moments with Ollie and Connor, revisting the father and son angle. Being there for the League, and whenever the time is right, to catch up on a few memories with Dinah.


Other character: Still working out the details.

You could be someone cool that hasn't been used before like...Adam Strange. :D :up:

Or, hows about a supporting character? You could take a supporting character and really flesh them out. Like Comissioner Gordon. Or Bibbo Bibowski. The daily adventures of Bibbo would kick ass.

[Apprentice]

Jim Gordon would rock.

You know who'd rock even more? Adam Strange. :D :p

[Red]

Ah. I see. And so then he goes on a quest to get his powers back, right?

Whos to say he loses his powers...

[The Question]

Okay. So he loses his immortality, but retains his other, non healing factor related powers. Cool. Got it. Still, I'd think he;d want the healing factor back, right? I mean, being able to be killed in any way a person can conceive and then just get up and keep kicking ass like nothing happened is pretty useful to a mercenairy.

[Keyser Soze]

Jim Gordon would rock.

I was toying with the idea of picking up Jim Gordon. But I don't like handling multiple characters in the same RPG, so I'll probably just be sticking with The Joker.

Funny story though. Back when Spike x1 was playing as The Joker in the DC RPG and I was considering joining, Jim Gordon was my first choice. But then I began to lean towards Ra's al Ghul, but thankfully Spike dropped The Joker, and the rest - as they say - is history...

[Spike_x1]

I didn't know I had to show every little detail. In TV that's called "Chopping Wood". Heh.

Hal thinks about taking a leak.
Hal lowers his zipper.
Hal pulls out his thing.
Urine comes out of Hal's thing.
Hal sighs with relief.

Sorry, I'll get more boring with my posts. :D

And I'm pretty tired of Green Lantern constructs breaking like balsa wood. Rudy put most of his strength into the actual punch. Supes would prolly bounce off the construct.

But ok. I guess next time I'll not waste my time by trying to contain the battle and just jump in.

We respected your privacy, can't you throw us a bone by acknowledging our "lumberjacking"?


:thing: :doom: :thing:Forgive me. My telepathy has been on the fritz lately.

The way I see it, nobody writes (or even implies) putting up a wall = no wall.

It's the way things have always been in the RPG, even in the simpler times of Seasons I and early II, and especially during fight scenes where written actions and reactions count for practically everything.

[Apprentice]

Keyser
Oh, go on...take Jim...I'd love to see what you could do with him.

[Red]

Its hard to explain without giving out too much about the arc, but yes its pretty given that he will get the full use of his powers back.

The important things is, how does he get them back.

[The Question]

Okay. Cool. Just wondering.

[Spike_x1]

BTW, the events with Raven that the Parasite mentioned in my last post happened in the very beginnings of the first season. Many of the heroes (Superman and Raven in particular) were written horribly out of character during that time, and I'm taking it upon myself to give a reason for why that is. If you search and look back at it, you'll see that an excuse for the characters' behavior really is long over due.

Plus, Raven's turn to the dark side really hasn't been explained before. She just decided to nuke the UN one day and it was really weird. :confused::D

[Byrd Man]

Season V goals

Captain Atom

To be a badmammajamma and rock your socks off. Also to bring a B-List superhero to the forefront of the DC Universe

Second Character

I don't know who It'll be but I know this, They'll be a minority

[SuperFerret]

Anyone know what recent events involving Aquaman (in the comics) we consider continuity for the RPG? Like Atlantis's destruction, the sinking of San Diego, etc.

[Spike_x1]

A player for Aquaman could probably pick up wherever he or she wants. I don't think previous players (I think we've had more than one) really referenced anything specific, whether it be for or against incorporating recent continuity.

[wiegeabo]

As far as Aquaman's conerned, he's a probably a couple of years behind continuity-wise. I don't think there's been one since the first season that's made any changes so it should pretty much be wide open.

[SuperFerret]

Ok, cool. I guess I'll use some of what's been done in the comics. Thanks.

6000th post!!! w00t!!

Aside from that, I plan on posting my last post for the season (for real this time) by the end of the night.

No need for me to explain my plans for Jason for next season...these last few posts have been leading up to what will happen in Season 5. So if you have been keeping up you know what will go down in Season 5.
