This game is similar to The "World Of Heroes" DC RPG (http://www.superherohype.com/forums/showthread.php?t=214020),

however this one follows a different, non-established 'Ultimate' continuity, similar to Marvel's Ultimate series.

Use these as a starting point, to get to know this world.

.rules.

Players can choose any DC Comic character they wish, and ''Ultimize'' them. Since there is no established Ultimate continuity for DC, some liberties can be taken. However, We ask that you at least try and stay true to the character's basics. (IE: Superman's an alien, Batman's a mortal, Wonder Woman's an Amazonian warrior, ect.) Don't make him or her completely 100% different from his/her's Regular DC counterpart.
This is in an Ultimate DC continuity. Meaning, this does not tie into the continuity of DC Comics. (IE: Superman never died, Batman was never broken by Bane, ect.) So don't play as if any of that has already happen. This is a NEW universe.
No Killing. Unnamed faceless NPC's (*Non Player Characters) are okay, but not comic characters. Someone else may want to take up the character, or they may be imporant to another story.
You can go anywhere on earth, or travel off planet, but do so within your character's means.
Only one character per person. First come, first serve. (Aside From Reserved)
You are your character, so act like it. Talk like them, use their dialogue. Do not exaggerate their powers or abilities, or pop-up here and there without explaination.
Several stories can be going at once, and you have the freedom to interact with other characters.
No Time Travel. (Unless someone wants to play an Ultimate Booster Gold, where the character needs that.)
You must post every two weeks, though it is preferred that you post more. If you go two weeks without a post without prior notice, your character is be up for grabs.
All regular Hype rules also apply.
Have fun.- - -

. the 'Ultimate' World: History and Parameters of the Ultimate DC Universe.

Written By The Question

Paranormal Activity: Paranormal activity is more or less the stuff of fantasy and the occasional tabloid rumor, as it is in our world. The Justice Society did exist, but the government kept their existance a secret, and had DC comics produce comic books based on the members of the society to make sure that any sightings were laughed at by the public.

Technological Advances: America has experienced a great deal of technological advancement over the past few years, due mostly to the scientific acheivements of super genius billionare philanthropist Lex Luthor, and his company Lexcorp. However, while some cities like Metropolis are briming with the new technologies, some, like Gotham, are very much like they are now (or maybe even a few years behind now) due to a lack of city funds and overall impovershment in the city.

Hero Activities: Not every hero would be very public. Most wouldn't be. The most public heroes would, probably, be The Flash and Wonder Woman. Heroes such as Superman, Batman, The Question, Green Arrow, and others, would be considered urban myths, for the most part.

Magic: Magic exists, although it's far different from "say a few incantations and wave around a few trinkets". Magic isn't a defyance of the laws of physics as much as it's a different form of manipulating them. Much more natural that science, but in some ways similar to it in aproach, and based on many scientific principals. As in, the laws of conservation of mass and energy are intact. A sorcerer can't get around them no matter how hard they try. Much of sorcery is based on the idea of enhancing the mind's ability to perceive the world around it. The mind is capable of many a wonderous thing, sunch as psychic ability. But, without some form of genetic enhancement, it takes years of training and use of specialized herbs to tap into these abilities. When one does (and most who atempts fail, it still takes an inherent gift for the craft to acheive), they are capable of generating orbs of energy, defying gravity, sensing the immotions and thoughts of others, astral projections, and other feats like that (people such as yogis and far east monks have displayed abilities like this, although they are very small in number). However, the greatest acheivement in sorcery is what is called the "schrodinger's cat" vision. Basically, the schrodinger's cat theory of physics states that the universe is based upon our perceptions. There are milllions upon millions of quantum posibilities in the universe, and what happens in our universe is based upon the quantum posibility we see. High level sorcerers who have atained the "schrodinger's cat" vision have heightened their awareness of the universe, enabling them to tune in on other quantum posibilities and bring them into reality for breif periods, thus effectively altering reality.

Gods: Gods, such as the greek and norse gods, did not exist at first. But because people believed in them, they do now. You see, poltergeists are suposedly spiritual entities created from the immotions and thoughts of people. Mind over matter. It's been shown to be at least somewhat possible before. Now, if thousands, amybe even millions of people not only think of something but believe it exists for centuries, could that thing come into existance? In this world, it can and did. This is how the gods of mythology were born. And, because the Greek gods have people still worshiping them in the form of the Amazons, they are the most powerful of all the pantheons.

[BnKRPG]

Cont'd

Space: The universe is held together by a united federation of planest, that has been together for millions of years. The main base if the UP is on the planet Oa. The Oans head up security and law enforcement throughout the universe, in the form of the Green Lantern Corps. The corps maintain order throughout the universe, although they don't interfere with political afairs. They just save lives.

Atlantis: The original Atlantians are long dead. Atlantis is know populated by marine life who, due to centuries of us poluting the waters, were mutated. One mutation was humanoid and highly evolved, and this spread, creating Atlantians as they are now. They found Atlantis, and mastered the ancient technologies there. Life in Atlantis would be akin to ancient barbaric tribes.

Alien And Martian Life: Mars was wiped out by civil war between the green martians and the white martians. Technically, there is no biological difference between the two races, but since they are shapeshifters they choose different average froms to diferentiate between one another. J'onn is the last survivor of Mars, and was accidentally transported to Earth during the final battle that wiped out everyone else. He's been on Earth since the early 50s, and has recently fallen into a deep depression after the Mars probes reported no remaigning signs of life, which he is just begining to come out of.

Themyiscara: Basically, the Amazons were a movement of female warriors in ancient times. While most were eventually wiped out, some, to avoid pursicution, left to an island in the pacific that exeriances regular storm activing, thus keeping the island safe from prying eyes. There, due to centuries of breeding and using steroid like preformance enhancing herds in their natural diet, the Amazons are naturally much stronger, faster, and more durable than normal human beings. There are men on the island, but they live seperately from the women and are basically second class citizens in the way that women were in America up until the early 60s. However, they only face this issue when they venture into the female villages. They have their own society in the male villages, although the man in charge of the male villages is subject to the Queen's law directly. The Amazons have technology that greatly enhance the phyisical abilities of their warriors, using surgury and inhalation of the gasses produced by a special groto in the capital city, which stimulate mutation that enhances physical ability. This procedure is almost never used, and has been used on Themyscera's ambassador, Diana. Her title, as ambassador, roughly translates to "Wonder Woman" in english.

Character You Would Like To Play: Superman

Basic History Of The Character: Born on the dying world of Krypton, baby Kal-El was sent to Earth to survive. On Earth, his apearance was altered from his natural form to blend in with the people of Earth. He was taken in and raised by Jonathan and Martha Kent. As he grew, he discovered that Earth's atmospehere gave him superhuman abilities. After graduating from college, he wandered the world, gaining experiance and using his powers to help others wen necesairy. After a few close calls, he and his parents fasioned a costume from materials in his ship, and a means of hiding his physique and drawing suspicion away from himself through the simple use of fake glasses, a bad hair style, and baggy clothes. He has now moved to Metropolis, where he spends his time as a reporter for the Daily Planet, and Metropolis' mysterious saviour from the skyes the citizens have dubbed "Superman".

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. He's a classic DC character.

2. His nature as an alien raised in a classic american family gives for interesting character developement.

3. I've got a **** load of great ideas for Ultimate Superman.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: Flesh out the fact that he's a human being. Well, he's not actrually a human being, but you get what I mean. He's got feelings and dreams and sad days and happy days and secret crushes and dirty fantasies, just like the rest of us. Superman is as symbol. An idea to inspire you and to look up to. Clark Kent is a man. A man who can juggle cars, but a man none the less.

Two Complete Sentances In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG: I'm a good writer. I can also expand on the ideas of others quite well.

[Batman]

'ULTIMATE DC' RPG APPLICATION

Screenname: Master Bruce

Character You Would Like To Play: Ultimate Batman

Basic History Of The Character: Young Bruce Wayne watched as his parents were slain infront of him in a random mugging, and he vowed to rid the world of evil that manifested itself in Gotham City. So, using his inherited wealth, He traveled the world and learned from the greatest warriors and minds to aqquire the skills that he needed to accomplish his mission. Once returning to Gotham City after many years abroad, Bruce also aqquired the weaponry he needed. Realising he also needed intimidation to better his enemies, Bruce donned the garb of a fearsome Bat, and became The Batman.

(Oh, it's alot more in-depth than that. But I'm saving those specific details for my posts, so, the summary above is a basic geist for it.)

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. I've dreamed of reading an Ultimate Batman comic. I don't see All Stars as Ultimate... I see it as All Stars, and enjoy it as such. But I want to put my own spin on a different take of everybody's favorite Caped Crusader, and this may be my chance to do so.

2. He's Batman. BATMAN, for godsakes. If you don't know who this guy is, you should be slapped, beaten, and castrated, all at once. Without one doubt, He is my favorite character in fiction, period.

3. Uh... I like the suit? (Seriously, A leather Batsuit would own in the movies)

Two Complete Sentances In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG:

If the freakin' Dark Knight isn't enough, I've been told I am good at this. So I assume I can bring good writing and action aswell as characterisation. One other thing I want to bring in is a Batman whose standout attribute is his mind, not his brutality (Though he'll have some of that, too). This Batman is going to be the DETECTIVE first, Dark Knight second.

How Many Times You Intend On Posting A DAY:

Considering this is...er... my RPG(Well, mine,Q's, and twy's, really), and I take Batman more seriously than any other character, I'd say at least once. Maybe twice, if I'm extra hyped. Oh, what the heck... Three times, even. (...But seriously... Once, at minimum.)

Character You Would Like To Play: Dinah Laurel Lance

Basic History Of The Character: Dinah Laural Lance, the last born and only daughter in the family was born to Dinah Drake-Lance and Larry Lance, a Private Investigator. Dinah Drake was the costumed hero known as “The Black Canary” during World War II. She fought in the battles unseen among the Paranormal Battle fronts of Europe, before settleing down and marrying.
In the 70’s Dinah was born, the youngest child with two older brothers. Joshua, the oldest, Howard, the middle child, However, there was something different about Dinah. Possibly because of the strange things her mother was exposed to during the war as the Black Canary, Dinah was born with inhumanly powerful vocal cords, enabling her to produce crippling noises when she screamed her loudest. This, of course, made her a hassle to deal with as she grew, but the family adapted. When Larry died of cancer in the early 90s, Dinah took over his private detective agency. Renaming it "Black Canary agency", she serves as a detective for hire in Gotham City, often working with the new local vigilante, known as "The Batman".

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. She’s my favorite.

2.I’ve played her often in several RPG’s, in several different characterizations and I’d like to try her again.

3. She’s fairly unique, a forgotten character among the Hype of the ‘Trinity’

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: I’d like to develop Dinah not only as a costumed hero but also as a woman. A Female who goes through the same heart break a normal human would, love, confusion, mourning and anger.

Two Complete Sentances In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): I think I have enough ability through previous RPG experiences to bring something to the RPG. However I also bring an open mind and a willingness to listen to others opinions.

Well, it's your choice. And Q's ideas for both are pretty cool... Both would make excellent additions to the game, and to Gotham.

But, my opinion... You're good at playing psychopaths... and The Joker is the ULTIMATE psychopath. I'm interested to see what you'd do with him.

Either way, I wouldn't complain. :o

Character You Would Like To Play: The Flash (Barry Allen)

Basic History Of The Character: While a student at Keystone State University, Barry was working on his final chemistry project; a serum that would increase reaction time and alertness, much like a highly potent energy drink. He was having no luck and was about to chalk it up to a failure, when his lab got struck by lightning. In addition to frying his notes completely, the lightning destroyed his working sample and put Barry in a coma. When he woke up weeks later, he found that he had been instilled with superspeed, but could no longer remember the steps to making his serum to mass produce it. Taking after his favorite member of the old Justice Society comics, he became the Flash.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. I've always liked the Flash's and have some interesting ideas for the character.

2. It should be fun to mess around with someone who just found out he can move at superspeeds.

3. I like the fresh start approach of this RPG.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: Well I really plan to play him alot like if I just somehow got superspeed. Pretty selfish at first and selfless later.

Two Complete Sentances In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player):

His father, a charlatan and failed businessman who liked tom pretend he was a big important person, used Alexander to attain a station of power and wealth, turning his failed electronics company into Luthorcorp, a booming conglomerate. When Alexander's mother, the only person who ever really cared about him, died, he was left at the mercy of his father. Eventually, Alexander couldn't take it. At 20, he killed his father, made it look like an accident, and collected on the insurance. He then shaved his head bald and started going by the name Lex. Ten years later, he is one of the richest men in the world, and his nickname is "the brains behind America". He has major ties to terrorism and organized crime, which he sells weapons to. This gives him resources an influence that would otherwise be denied to him. He uses illegal human testing and other such methods to stay ahead of the competition. This has led to numerous deaths, and the occasional metahuman. He simply sees it as "breaking a few eggs to make an omlette”.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. A long time ago, I honestly didn’t think much of Luthor, I just thought he was a guy in a suit who didn’t have the strength to touch the man of steel. Obviously I saw the error of my ways and now I consider him one of DC’s, if not comic’s best villains.

2. I’ve never had the chance to play him before, so I have a lot of ideas on what I can do with him.

3. As shown with Ra’s in “World Of Heroes”, I like playing a character who is sophisticated and I think I can give him some real depth.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: More than anything I want to show his humanity. Why he does what he does, what he hopes to accomplice for himself.

Two Complete Sentences In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): Well I always plan out what I’m going to do with a character first so their journey in the RPG seems natural and I just love creating idea’s of my own that other writers have never thought of. Secondly I want to create and ingaging arc's that makes you just want to read more.

Character You Would Like To Play: Human Bomb

Basic History Of The Character: The original Human Bomb was Roy Lincoln a scientist working with his father on a special explosive chemical called "27-QRX." When Nazi spies invaded his lab and killed his father, he resorted to ingesting the chemical to prevent it from falling into their hands. As a result, Lincoln gained the ability to cause explosions in any object he came into contact with.

My Ultimate Human Bomb: A female suicide bomber attacks a US truck convoy in Afghanistan. She detonates her explosives; five soldiers are killed and more soldiers and civilians are wounded. When the smoke clears there’s a soot-covered woman standing in the smoking crater. Both she and the soldiers are astonished so see that she has survived the explosion apparently unharmed. When the surviving soldiers move to apprehend her they discover that the woman explodes on contact. She runs off into the countryside. The earth explodes under her bare feet with every step. The soldiers open fire; their bullets explode harmlessly on contact with her back. She disappears into the hills.

Eventually a covert US government force apprehends her in the mountainous country. She’s exhausted and confused. She’s studied by a clandestine team of top scientist who discover that somehow her standard explosives reacted with a unique, but dormant, property in her biological makeup resulting in the ability to explode any object she comes into contact with. The blast also wiped out all of her memories as well. She can’t recall any specific details about her life. She can’t understand her motivations for her suicide attack. She only remembers her name: Safia. The US government offers her a choice, work for them in debt of the soldiers she killed and wounded or remained imprisoned for life. Donning the burka, the garb of her country’s women and a safeguard against her powers, Safia agrees to the work for the US government in exchange for her life.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. I think I’ve put a unique twist on an old character.

2. I think this character is relevant to our times.

3. She’s not another middle-aged white male superhero.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: I plan on exploring her first steps into the world of a covert government-run meta. She’ll be finding out who she is (and who she was) along the way - and no doubt coming into explosive contact with any heroes and villains that stand in the way of her mission.

What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): I’ll have no trouble posting a few times a week and adding some twists and turns to the story.

Character You Would Like To Play: The Flash (Barry Allen)

Basic History Of The Character: While a student at Keystone State University, Barry was working on his final chemistry project; a serum that would increase reaction time and alertness, much like a highly potent energy drink. He was having no luck and was about to chalk it up to a failure, when his lab got struck by lightning. In addition to frying his notes completely, the lightning destroyed his working sample and put Barry in a coma. When he woke up weeks later, he found that he had been instilled with superspeed, but could no longer remember the steps to making his serum to mass produce it. Taking after his favorite member of the old Justice Society comics, he became the Flash.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. I've always liked the Flash's and have some interesting ideas for the character.

2. It should be fun to mess around with someone who just found out he can move at superspeeds.

3. I like the fresh start approach of this RPG.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: Well I really plan to play him alot like if I just somehow got superspeed. Pretty selfish at first and selfless later.

Two Complete Sentances In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player):

Character You Would Like To Play: Deathstroke

Basic History Of The Character: Slade Wilson began working for the government at age 18. He became one of the most respected combatants in the military because of his skills. Born with an enhanced healing factor as well as enhanced strength and agility. He is also one of the most billiant tactical minds on the planet because of his advanced mental capacity. He left the military after uncovering a plot to test ways to copy his own DNA and mass produce super soldiers. He has been able to avoid them, always being a step ahead. At first Slade had trouble finding work that he could use his skills in. Until he was approached by a man who ask him to kill someone. Slade took the the job and has been working as a mercenary ever since. But Slade still has a sense of morality and will only take a job if the person deserves it. He does not kill innocents or children.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. I think I can play the role of a mercenary pretty well.

2. I can use Deathstroke to fight on both sides of the law.

3. I want to see how I can change Deathstroke in the ultimate universe while keeping him somewhat the same. He's going to be a badass just like he is in the regular DCU.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: I plan to have Deathstroke start out in the middle of the hero and villian scale. Then have some events shift him more to one side of the law. Which side you'll have to wait and see.

Two Complete Sentances In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): I can work well with other people. I can also help make stories great by putting in ideas and seeing what other players think.

Why not?

It's an interesting thread, but you have to understand, bnkrpg is my official rpgs... so meh... when i get back online fulltime I'll start ranting...

[MaskedManJRK]

Well, it's your choice. And Q's ideas for both are pretty cool... Both would make excellent additions to the game, and to Gotham.

But, my opinion... You're good at playing psychopaths... and The Joker is the ULTIMATE psychopath. I'm interested to see what you'd do with him.

Either way, I wouldn't complain. :o

Eh, I like writing psychopaths, but on the other hand, I want a challenge and I espically liked Q's TT ideas.

Ok good, I'll take playing him into consideration. Should be great.

In Ultimate Teen Titans, Roy Harper is Green Arrow instead of being Speedy or Arsenal.

[The Question]

Well, what you do doesn't have to be based on the article in Wizard. My ideas certainly aren't (seeing as how I never read said article).

[Nightwing]

I think it'd be great to play Harper as GA, but I'm already having fun playing Ollie as GA in the HvsV RPG. I have time to think it over don't I? Sides, I haven't put up my application yet...:up:

Think it over. Hell, you could even choose a completely different character.

[Nightwing]

It'll be between Roy and Ollie.

[The Question]

By the way, what was the Wizard article for Ultimate DC? I just read two parts of it, one for The Flash and one for the Teen Titans. The Teen Titans one was suprisingly similar to the idea I had, even though I never read the article. What were the other ideas for Ultimate DC they had?

[Nightwing]

I have that Wizard, what do you want to know basically?

[The Batman]

How are you guys gonna handle the justice league, by the way? Similar to the ultimates or the authority?

[The Question]

Well, my idea was somewhat akin to The Ultimates, but not entirely. The members of the League are not government agents, but the group is funded by the government. At first, at least. You see, the government realizes that more superhumans are popping up. SO, in an effort to use what they see as a natural resource to their advantage, they bring a group of them together. Basically, the League's job is, whenever something paranormal happens, and it turns hostile, they go in and kick it's ass. The initial line up is The Flash, Green Lantern, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, and The Atom serving as their tech guy. Eventually, something weird goes down in Gotham, and of course they run into Batman there. While not much help as a direct combatant, he helps come up with battle stratigies, and soon becomes an ally of the group, but not an official member. Warry of the Justice League, he forms his own team of superhuman vigilantes called the Outsiders in the event that the government uses them for less than honorable things. Eventually, the team gets fed up with the government controling them. So, Wonder Woman and Aquaman use their status as U.N. diplomats to have the team become international in nature. Part of that deal is that superhuman operatives representing the world's super powers join the team. New members include the Crimson Fox sisters from France, Rocket Red from Russia, The Knight from England, and Captain Atom from the U.S. They maintain their status as the group that handels paranormal threats.


But then, that's my idea. It may be changed later on.

[The Question]

Thanks. I've been wondering, howing, about how public the group should be. Part of me feels that the public should know that the team exists as a special forces unit, but besides that they shouldn't know much about them. Or would that be too much of a departure?

[Nightwing]

Awesome. I alwasy saw Batman's role on an Ultimate JLA as sort of what nick fury is to the Ultimates, but that works.

Actually, he's more than that in the Ultimare verison that was planned. According to Wizard, he was the most untrusted member of the Ultimate JLA. And when it came to revealing his real identity to everyone when all the others were comfortable doing so, he wouldn't. Afterwords, he ends up turning his back on the League...And then systematically defeats them all.

I always thought groups like the league were public. But, if you're trying to make them more like mystery men, than the special forces thing works. But the league has always been one of those teams the public knows about. It depends. How do you think guys like Superman, Wonder Woman, GL, etc, be portrayed in public?

I dont think that should happen. "Ultimate" DC should be more realistic, IMO. It shouldnt be more of the same...

[taskmaster]

Hey Batman, there wasn't anything on Deathstroke in that article was there? I probably wouldn't change any of my ideas, I'd just like to see what they would do.

[Trigger]

I think the Superman being a myth and Batman being a spy works fine. GL shouldn't be too public considering he would work on a more cosmic level and WW would be a diplomat who the public knows and love. Maybe she could be part Mary Jane and part Namor. Atom wouldn't need to be very public since he only handles tech. Just some of my ideas.

Well, Superman (who I'm playing as, by the way) would be alot more mysterious. He would go in, save the day, and leave without a word. It builds up a quasi urban myth status around him. My mian reason for this is that Clark Kent seems like a rather private guy who wouldn't be particularly comfortable with the fame, so he tries to be as incospicuous as possible. It's also the only way I can see the glasses/baggy clothes thing working on the likes of Lois Lane and Perry White, them being star reporters and all. So, not much is known about Superman besides that he saves lives and wears blue. Wonder Woman, on the other hand, would be very public. She's very much into polotics, and is often giving speeches about finding one's inner god or godess. Green Lantern would be pretty much unknown about. Most of his acts of daring heroics would take place in space, him being a space cop and all. He would also head up the process of introducing Earth's governments to the United Federation of Planets, which most are obviously uncomfortable with.


But then, that sort of characterization for Wonder Woman and Green Lantern is up to their respective players, of course. Those are just my ideas.

[Charlie No-One]

This is a great idea.

[Nightwing]

Master Bruce, I sent you everything the article had on Ultimate Batman. It's alot, so make sure you take your time with it.

Well, it would be encouraged to have them be the same gender. If you want to have a male Poison Ivy, why not use Jason Woodrue? He's basicsally a male Poison Ivy, except 100 times crazyer. He was Ivy's college proffesor who brpught her into the world of echo terrorism and made her physically imune to poisons. In the regular comics, he himself is half human/half plant from another dimension who thinks he's some sort of post modern echological mesiah in tune with "the green", always talking about how all things are connected to "the green" and how "the green" is the inherently superior natural order of things that humanity has ignored completely. You could change the extra dimensional aspect and keep the crazy aspect.

Not at all. Well, on my end. Question, your verdict?


Who wouldn't love it? Hell, Lobo could be a merc/bounty hunter/private eye who gets paired up with Hal on a case at some point. That's be funny.

[LibrarianThorne]

Not at all. Well, on my end. Question, your verdict?

My idea for U. Lobo is not that radically different from normal DCU Lobo.

He wasn't able to kill the Czarnians like he'd planned on. Instead, the genetically modified insects sent the entire population of Czarnia, the immortal paradise, into eternal ceaseless agony. Besides Lobo, who had of course taken the only antidote to the venom he'd created. Somewhat disappointed that the Czarnians hadn't died, he just accepted that their screams of agony would echo out into the cosmos forever.

Happy with himself, he took off on his scratch built space bike, complete with its own life support bubble (because, as tough as he is, he can't live in hard vacuum for long). He uses his natural gifts as a Czarnian: enhanced senses, godlike regeneration (if he loses an arm, it grows back in moments), and incredible strength and durability on top of his own twisted genius level intellect to do whatever he wants. He's only a bounty hunter when it suits him, and seeks money solely to live the hard partying, hard drinking lifestyle that he loves. He has continually modified his bike to the point where it could be classified as a weapon of mass destruction, going to far as to implant the brain of one of his bounties into his bike to act as the bike's wetware and operating system (after her performed a lobotomy on the brain, of course, depriving it of any ability other than serving his needs). He's also invented his own armory's worth of weapons, each capable of causing indescribable pain if it isn't one of the weapons created to simply blow things to kingdom frag and back.

Basic History Of The Character: Wally West grew up in a small town called Blue Valley in Nebraska. The only child of his family, he's wished all his life he could get away from this hick town to someplace greater, other than dealing with being the outcast ina small school. Constant family reunions remind him of all the places he could be other than here, and is fascinated by his aunt Iris's stories of the city of Keystone. Offering to take him to go to Kesytone High, his aunt Iris brings a smalltown boy to the big city in hopes that he would have fun growing up and get to know people. Little does he know lightning can indeed strike twice...

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. I need to RP a speedster, as I have some good ideas on how their powers work.

2. The Flash was chosen, and though Barry's a nice character, Wally's second best.

3. Possible Kid Flash in the making? Only time can tell...

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: I'm returning Wally to his roots. A yougn boy from a small town in a big city, Wally's also the new kid at school. How does a normal boy get by?

Accepted, of course.

Welcome to the game...:up:

[Nightwing]

My idea for U. Lobo is not that radically different from normal DCU Lobo.

He wasn't able to kill the Czarnians like he'd planned on. Instead, the genetically modified insects sent the entire population of Czarnia, the immortal paradise, into eternal ceaseless agony. Besides Lobo, who had of course taken the only antidote to the venom he'd created. Somewhat disappointed that the Czarnians hadn't died, he just accepted that their screams of agony would echo out into the cosmos forever.

Happy with himself, he took off on his scratch built space bike, complete with its own life support bubble (because, as tough as he is, he can't live in hard vacuum for long). He uses his natural gifts as a Czarnian: enhanced senses, godlike regeneration (if he loses an arm, it grows back in moments), and incredible strength and durability on top of his own twisted genius level intellect to do whatever he wants. He's only a bounty hunter when it suits him, and seeks money solely to live the hard partying, hard drinking lifestyle that he loves. He has continually modified his bike to the point where it could be classified as a weapon of mass destruction, going to far as to implant the brain of one of his bounties into his bike to act as the bike's wetware and operating system (after her performed a lobotomy on the brain, of course, depriving it of any ability other than serving his needs). He's also invented his own armory's worth of weapons, each capable of causing indescribable pain if it isn't one of the weapons created to simply blow things to kingdom frag and back.

Very nice.

[LibrarianThorne]

And, of course, he's the darkly humorous, cynical bastitch we all know and love, right?

Yeah, but I don't know if I'd use him. He doesn't really work until all the heroes get established, and I'm waiting too damn long to do things in all the other RPGs I'm involved in as is, so I don't think I'll apply as Lobo.

[The Question]

Why wouldn't he work? He's really not asociated to any of the other characters. The only one I could really see him running into much would be Green Lantern, and there are thousands of other Green Lantersn besides Hal.

[LibrarianThorne]

Ah, but the problem is, I freakin' hate solo arcs. If I want to write a story, I write a story. This is an RPG, and it's not fun at all if he's only interacting with NPCs.

[The Question]

Good point. Unfortunately, you really need solo arcs to set things up in a new RPG.

[LibrarianThorne]

Good point. Unfortunately, you really need solo arcs to set things up in a new RPG.

Which is why I don't want to apply right now. The whole world/universe has to get established before I can do anything that remotely resembles cool.

Alright, to answer a question brought up earlier, the IC thread should be going up sometime tommorow. (Unless anyone has any objections. I can always delay it until Tuesday or Wednesday.)

Alright then. Hell. maybe you could sign up as one of Superman's villains later on. I've got some great ideas for Metallo and Parasite.

It was my idea an you know it. :mad: Although, the Ultimate DC article in Wizard had a similar idea. :( But mine was better. :mad:

Will I get to know about this idea sometime too. You know, with me playing SuperBoy and all...:o

[Green Lantern]

Well, we already have a Barry Allen. Maybe you could start out as a powerless background character, and then soon get powers of yiur own and insist upon becoming the Flash's side kick.Couple of things... my Barry is a college student when he gets his powers, so if there is a "Kid Flash" its not gonna be much younger than the Flash.

...Iris West is not yet married to Barry Allen, and is also enrolled at Keystone State, so she's not really old enough to take in a teenaged nephew...

...and we'll see first hand what happens when you try to reproduce Barry's accident, pretty quickly into the game... and its not pretty...

[MaskedManJRK]

Will I get to know about this idea sometime too. You know, with me playing SuperBoy and all...:o

Ah, didn't notice yours. My apologies.

But, it's more about Wally and Robin than the TT in and of itself, but don't worry, you'll find out soon. ;)

Well, I had an idea about Wally getting the powers. He wouldn't be as powerful as Barry, but my idea would make sense.

Character You Would Like To Play: The Joker

Basic History Of The Character: Not much is known about ole' Jack before he took a nose-dive into chemicals, not even to him. He has a small idea, but he doesn't want to confront it. There's only one thing that makes sense to him now...and it is death. Death is a joke, a divine comedy, and as The Joker, he shall show the whole world this, be it through death or insanity.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:
1. MB said I played good psychopaths (I'm not sure if that's an compliment to my writing skills or an insult to my character, but I'm willing to deny the latter and go with the former), and who's a bigger psychopath than The Joker?
2. I have a lot of cool ideas on how to play him.
3. Uh...it's a good way to get in the game until I get into Robin?

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: I'm going to combine all the best parts of the Clown Prince of Crime, from Hammil to Moore to Nicoloson. I aim to make him a darkly humorous and evil clown, yet one that is sympathetic and tragic.

Two Complete Sentances In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): What, are you dense? Are you retarted or something? You don't know who the hell I am? I'm the goddamn MaskedManJRK.

Character You Would Like To Play: Ultimate Atom

Basic History Of The Character: Dr. Reiana "Raye" Palmer is a genious, a prodigy and a science geek of the highest order ever since she was little. At the age of 22, Raye completed her schooling with multiple Doctorates, a combination of which allowed to invent Matter Shunting, a bend in Newtonian Physics that allows her to shrink objects using zero point energy. While working for Luthorcorp, her home was invaded and she was forced to use the device to escape and found out she could use the experimental device to defend herself. Now she has to figure out what to do with this information, this technology... this power. Who's side will she be on? More importantly: how the heck will she get there?

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. In Wizard's Ultimate JLA, it seemed like an odd, but somewhat interesting gender/race switch. I think it's worth exploring, at the very least to help seperate this Ultimate DC from the normal one.

2. As a support character I get a chance to learn from the more experienced guys around here, but I'd also, ideally, still be around JLA action. It's an easy character to position between the League and Luthor.

3. A fun power to make work. And I get to technobabble. Good times.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person:

Raye is the one doesn't want to be a superhero, she wants to be a scientist, but honestly, this (The League, Luthorcorp, The GLC) IS the cutting edge of science. She has to be there, and, much to her shagrin, she has to wear the uniform. Oh, and she works for Lex. This is all in conjuction with a naivete usually inherent in sheltered science prodigies. If those arcs get resolved, then there may some Magic-tension or Titan-mentoring that should be investigated. Bottom line: Scientist first, then, maybe, a superhero.

Two Complete Sentances In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): I'll be bringing a real life tech background for authenticity, and, y'know... Google. I also read and write pretty often, I may have a phrase or two to turn.

'ULTIMATE DC' RPG Application

Screenname: Charlie No-One

Character You Would Like To Play: Poison Ivy

Basic History Of The Character: Pamela Isley was a very famous and wealthy botanist. The government hired her to test a new breed of plant life on five test subjects. Once the plant seed was released into a contained environment, it would change the biology of anyone in contact with it. The victims would no longer need to eat since they could photosynthesize and there strength was enhanced drastically. There were also rumors of untold power. The experiment failed on four subjects. The last one, a human, had a successful trail, yet he was frightened by his power. His name was Jason Woodrue. One day when Pamela checked up on him, he knocked her out and placed her in the testing chamber.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. I wanted to create a new take on Poison Ivy.

2. Pamela is a diverse character.

3. I want to show a new side of the classic villain.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person: I plan on making her misunderstood. She always wasn’t evil. I plan to make people question which side she is on.

Two Complete Sentences In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): I have played in the Hype RPGs before. I can bring interesting storylines.

Do You Know How To Post Pictures On The Hype?: Yes.

[The Question]

Aproved.

[Batman]

Cool. Three Bat-rogues. Course you're approved. :up:

(I seriously need to consider making a Batman 'Approved' pic...)

[Batman]

Aproved.

Curse my slow, incompetitent computer. :o

[twylight]

I love my Dominatrix 'Approved' pic. :o ;)

[Green Lantern]

You got a cape, you're a target. You leap buildings in any amount of bounds? You're a target. Lobo's in a bad mood? You're a target...I don't have a cape... :p and I don't leap buildings :p and I'll give Lobo a puppy to make him in a good mood :o

[Green Lantern]

Don't feel bad.

Mine was supposed to be a lot shorter, *and have fewer typo's* than it is.

However after a certain point the character took over, hence, all of a sudden she's tracking down Batman. :confused: -_-;

Tell me about it, I just was gonna type down a few ideas, and all of a sudden I have six pages in Word :o

[Red]

Red X, did you get my pm about the Ultimate DC?

Yes :up:

[The Batman]

Well, Superman (who I'm playing as, by the way) would be alot more mysterious. He would go in, save the day, and leave without a word. It builds up a quasi urban myth status around him. My mian reason for this is that Clark Kent seems like a rather private guy who wouldn't be particularly comfortable with the fame, so he tries to be as incospicuous as possible. It's also the only way I can see the glasses/baggy clothes thing working on the likes of Lois Lane and Perry White, them being star reporters and all. So, not much is known about Superman besides that he saves lives and wears blue. Wonder Woman, on the other hand, would be very public. She's very much into polotics, and is often giving speeches about finding one's inner god or godess. Green Lantern would be pretty much unknown about. Most of his acts of daring heroics would take place in space, him being a space cop and all. He would also head up the process of introducing Earth's governments to the United Federation of Planets, which most are obviously uncomfortable with.


But then, that sort of characterization for Wonder Woman and Green Lantern is up to their respective players, of course. Those are just my ideas.

For your ideas, they should probably be a strike force. but i guess it does depend on the guys playing them

[LibrarianThorne]

I don't have a cape... :p and I don't leap buildings :p and I'll give Lobo a puppy to make him in a good mood :o

Lobo will eat the puppy, and then proceed to kill you.

Just how the Ultimate Main Man works.

[Red]

Ultimate Lobo - He'il eat your puppy

[The Question]

Lobo will eat the puppy, and then proceed to kill you.

he'd really eat a puppy? I mean, he'd find that apitizing?

[Green Lantern]

Sure. They're crunchy, contain all the essential vitamins and minerals, and even better, if you bite off their heads they bleed like a stuck pig!

What's not to like for a sociopathic immortal mercenary?

[The Question]

I'm just asking about the flavor. They don't seem that tastey.

[LibrarianThorne]

I'm just asking about the flavor. They don't seem that tastey.

Meat is meat. I hear dog's a pretty popular form of meat in Southeast Asia, so why wouldn't an alien like it if plenty of people do?

[Batman]

This is kinda the look I'm going for, with Ultimate Batman.

(I wanted to make the eyes more menacing, though)

Fair point.

I'm not feeling the grey symbol. Remember, part of the reason that it's a bright yellow is to attract gunfire. Yellow is a lot easier to make out in the darkness of the night than, say, the lower half of a person't face. By making the background gray, you're making the most prominent part of Batman the lower half of his face, which also happens to be the least protected part of his body...

I'm cool with it. Isn't Ultimate Bats going to be more spy than fighter anyways? As long as we aren't discussing puppy slaughter, I'm happy.:up:

Same as your first design, and I still like it! :up:

[RAMORE]

Can someone please answer my question?

i'd like to play but i'm not sure as who since most of my favs are taken. I was kind of leaning between Captain Atom and Starman 5 the one hit by lightning from space what do yall think?

[Batman]

Can someone please answer my question?

...

Captain Atom could be cool. The only reason I say that is because I really don't know much about Starman. But Captain Atom is awesome. :up:

:batman::up:

[Red]

Beat me too it MB.

[RAMORE]

...



:batman::up:


**** how did i miss that:D

[RAMORE]

Well you already have an atom, i know they are completley different characters but i think i'll do starman so no on is confused.

so can you reserve Starman For me? Thanks.

[twylight]

OH! Which Starman?

Either way DInah has connections to him. ;)


Also before I put up my next post I'd like to have a little poll....Historically all my Dinah posts are done in third/second person. Should I try for first person or stick with the 'classic' way to RPG?

[taskmaster]

Try first person.

[batnkevlar]

Couple of things... my Barry is a college student when he gets his powers, so if there is a "Kid Flash" its not gonna be much younger than the Flash.

...Iris West is not yet married to Barry Allen, and is also enrolled at Keystone State, so she's not really old enough to take in a teenaged nephew...

...and we'll see first hand what happens when you try to reproduce Barry's accident, pretty quickly into the game... and its not pretty...

Ok, first thing's first: Barry is not a father figure to Wally, he's more like a big brother. Thus being, Wally is a high school freshman and that's enough of an age difference.

Iris can take in a nephew, can't she? I mean, she works for the news station, right?

How old are Barry and iris?

And whatever thing you're doing to disuade people from getting Flash's powers, I will find a way around. So yeah, ease up willya?

Oh, why the hell are people picking third and fourth generation heroes like Superboy? Why is he here?

[taskmaster]

So, how is everyone liking my Deathstroke so far?

He changed Superboy's origin. He's not a clone in this. Just a kid with TK powers who lives in Metropolis.

[batnkevlar]

Oh ok, well...

Anyway, Green lantern, why are you intorducing Linda Park? She's Wally's girl...

[twylight]

Hey BnK! :D


I meant to PM you and tell you we were using the account, but since we all had the password I didn't think you'd mind. It keeps a kinda united front for the RPG's and pay's homage to the fact that we have them..:)

Also, take it easy on GL, we're ultimizing so we're just adding and molding stuff. :)

1. No, Wally was an Uncle, not a big brother figure. Wally is usually seen regarding him more as his father than his real father. (Who was an ass to Wally most of the time)
2. She's still in college (just like Barry) and I haven't established what she does, I'm probably going to make her Barry's PR manager since hes a public hero
3. Senior year of college so 22 or 23
4. It's just that it's going to be a big plot point coming shortly with what happens when someone tries to duplicate his powers. We can work something out if you're set on having Wally, but as you asked why take another generation of a legacy hero, when so many of the originals are still left?

Oh ok, well...

Anyway, Green lantern, why are you intorducing Linda Park? She's Wally's girl... Because she's a well known reporter in the Flash world, and Iris is still in college. It's an Ultimate universe, nothing is set in stone to be exactly like the real DCU.

[drastic_quench]

Hey, sorry to bail on you guys, but I just had a ton of work come down the pipeline. Delete my character, thanks.

[Green Lantern]

Another one for Twy, forgive the roughness, it was a quickie :o

Hey Lantern, could you draw some Ultimate Lobo for me? I could PM you with the details.

[Green Lantern]

I'm willing to give it a try

Thats funny because I had always wanted to keep Conner in a civilian outfit even in the Ultimate DC universe

[Darth Wolverine]

Instead of Hal, I'm gonna nab Wodner Woman instead. I've never played her before, and I'd like to expand my skills.

[Batman]

That's cool. But you'll have to write up an application.

Or do you want me to reserve her, first?

[Caliber]

Who else do you guys need for the Ultimate DC rpg?

[Batman]

Who else do you guys need for the Ultimate DC rpg?

Hmm... Well, another villian wouldn't hurt, right now. (7 Heroes, 6 Villians, currently)

Of course, neither would Martian Manhunter, since most of the Justice League is made up (Or going to be, anyway).

I believe Q also had some ideas for Teen Titans members... So that may be something to talk about.

Really, though, it's up to you. Any DC Character you want to ultimize is fine with me, as long as they aren't reserved or already taken.
