"One Universe" Marvel & DC Crossover RPG Season II: Sign-Up/OOC Thread

[Batman]

"One Universe" RPG SEASON II SIGN-UP FORM

Screen Name: Master Bruce

Character you would like to play: Wally West

Powers: Wally posesses the inhuman ability of super speed, aswell as molecular control, the creation of lightning aswell as tornadic surges (and other speed related elements), and even possibly time and dimensional travel, though he's yet to discover these possibilities.

Brief biography of the character's history: Wally West was a student in Blue Valley, Nebraska, and president of the official Flash fanclub when he was offered a chance to meet his hero in person. Not knowing The Flash of that time was actually his uncle by marriage, Barry Allen, Wally was caught in a freak accident that mirrored the same one that turned Allen into The Flash. With the same powers of his hero, Wally became Barry's sidekick, Kid Flash. The two went on to secretly protect the twin cities of Central and Keystone for years. However, everything changed when Allen killed his longtime enemy, Eobard Thwane/Professor Zoom, taking the villian's life in self-defense. Though the charges were dropped against Barry, and he resumed the role of The Flash, the incident scarred young Wally forever, making him realise how serious and grim of a profession of superheroics could be. Renouncing his role as Kid Flash, He left the hero buisness, for fear of ending up like his mentor. Years later, with the emergence of heroes like Superman, Spider-Man, Batman, and others, Wally is only just approaching his twenties, due to his slowed aging as a result of his inactive powers. In a world where heroes are born, and still needed... Where will he fit in?

Three reasons why you have chosen that character:

1. Wally West is a character I've wanted to play for a very, very long time. But I was always too intimidated by Savage and TheCorpulent1's exceptional portrayls to ever take him up in the DC RPG. And since no one else with the exception of Darth Wolverine, who quit, has taken him... I decided to seize the opprotunity.

2. Usually, in RPG's, I go by other people's plans and storylines and contribute all that I can to them. Now, I've got my own story to tell (With some aid from wiegeabo)... One that I'm actually confident in, and will both re-establish a character who has vast potential in this RPG, and keep the 'Fresh Start' aspect alive and well into Season II.

3. Think about it. A Spidey/Flash teamup. A battle with Quicksilver. Flash being so fast that Daredevil would have a hard time keeping his radar focused on him. Wally seeking out help from Professor Xavier. Johnny Storm arguing with him over who's got the better hairstyle. Him having a crush on Rogue or Kitty Pryde. There are tons of possibilites for some really good interaction with Marvel characters from Wally, aswell as fellow DC Characters. (Infact... Young Avengers/Teen Titans team, anyone?)

What can you bring to this game?: One of the original Teen ****ing Titans. And hopefully good writing to accompany him.

Color and font you plan on using for your character's speech: Bold Verdana Red for Wally's speech, Bold Verdana Red Italics for Wally's thoughts.

How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: Depends on how fast the RPG moves.

Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in:

It was a cold, winter day in a local newstand, just on the edge of Central City. The owner, leaning on his desk, simply watched as a redheaded young man browsed through the gossip magazines. The young man simply chuckled to himself, as he read one headline. "Jesus married the bride of Dracula"? Gee, what's next... "Man can fly and shoot lasers out of his-

His chuckle suddenly faded, as he grabbed an issue of The Daily Planet. ...Yeeeah. Note to self. Look into Jesus Dracula theory on Google.

Browsing through more magazines, the young man noticed that the owner of the stand was getting annoyed.

"Are you gonna pay for something? This ain't no library."

The young man looked at the owner, annoyed.

"In a second."

The owner began to open his mouth, but unseen to him, the young man looked through the rest of the stack in, literally, a second.

"Done.", The young man grinned, looking at the owner, who raised an eyebrow.

"Uh... Yeah. Whatever. Now you gonna buy something or what?"

"Hmm? Nah. I've already read through every one of them anyway. Why waste a perfectly good paycheck?", The young man responded, with a laugh.

The owner's eyebrow raised even wider, as the young man left the stand. Suddenly, the owner's head whipped around. He looked, but saw nothing.

"What... the hell? I... I could've sworn...", He said, rubbing the back of his head due to the pain of what he thought was a slap to the back of his head. Turning back, the owner watched as the young redheaded male was a block away now, whistling to himself.

Heh. That was sorta worth the laugh., The young man thought to himself, as he continued on, his hand still red from slapping the newstand owner so hard. ...Okay. Seriously. OW.

"Kill it! Kill the mutant" the phrase is said over and over again through the crowd chasing down the child. Magneto watches on in disgust as the crowd chases down a child. A child that is superior to all of them they should bow at his feet. It was time for him to do something. The child rounds a corner finding herself into Magneto's arms.

"Don't worry everything is going to be ok" he tells her quietly. The mob comes around the corner. One of the humans step from the crowd.

"Give us the child mutie lover!" Magneto doesn't speak to them yet. The little girl looks up to him.

"Close your eyes" he tells her

"A child. How despicable your kind is. You will find no sympathy from me tonight. What happens here is your own doing" a fire escape from one of the buidlings is ripped off the side of a building and goes into the air. The fire escape rips into hundreds of pieces. The mob looks up into the sky in awe but soon they are full of terror. The pieces of metal come running down fast like on some sort of medievel battle ground. Magneto carries the child away while the screams and cries of human fill the air.

Character you would like to play: Superman

Powers: Superman posesses the ability of flight, x-ray vision, heat vision, artic breath, super strength, endurance, super speed, and super hearing.

Brief biography of the character's history: When the advanced civilisation of the planet known as Krypton was put into danger, it's top scientist rocketed his only son off the planet in a desperate attempt to preserve the dying race. Landing on Earth, the craft that carried the infant was found by a loving farming couple. Renamed Clark Kent, the boy grew up in Smallville, Kansas, where he discovered that he had abilities far beyond those of normal men. Told of his heritage many years later, the boy set out on a worldwide quest for answers, while discreetly using his powers to help other people. Taking up journalism while on his venture, Clark eventually returned to the US, and applied for a job at the top newspaper in the world: The Daily Planet, of Metropolis. Getting the job, Clark soon learned that he had a need to continue on with helping other people with his otherworldly abilities. The Kents, sewing him a costume and helping him invent a mild mannered persona with a pair of thick glasses, watched as their son left Smallville to persue his career in journalism. When moving to Metropolis, Clark encountered Lois Lane, the top reporter of the Daily Planet. But during an assignment covering Lex Luthor and Wilson Fisk's company merging, Clark was forced to reveal his new identity to the world, and thus, a hero was born. Dubbed "Superman" by Lane, Clark now continues to lead a double life of secrecy, both as the mild mannered reporter, and Champion of Tommorow.

Three reasons why you have chosen that character:

1. I played him all through last season. From beginning to end. That's a rare thing for me to be able to say. What's rarer is that I got to play him from before he put on the tights, to his first real victory against a largert than life threat. I'm not about to hand him over to someone else... There's at least 60 more years of history I've barely even acknowledged.

2. Superman is the ultimate superhero. He was the first, He spawned many others, and he's still a great character to this day.

3. I want to explore more of the character's history, aswell as better blending him into the "One Universe" angle.

What can you bring to this game?: Hopefully enjoyable writing, good interaction, and kick ass, over the top flight battles.

Color and font you plan on using for your character's speech: Bold Blue Verdana for Superman, Blue Verdana for Clark Kent.

How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: Depends on how fast the game is moving. But I'd say once or twice.

Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in:

I walk down the lonely streets of Gotham, theres a harsh cold breeze and I could see the Bat Signal high above, "Batman" where was he when my Bella was taken from me? No-where. Where were the Supermen and Flash's when my love was ripped so heartlessly from me? No-where. If I could fly across the city with a huge red cape and find her killers... I would, but I can't can I? If I had a billion dollar car that I could speed through the city in to chase them down, I would. Life's not fair and if I must spend the rest of my life alone, I would make sure my days were spent getting revenge on those ignorant bastards who took my life from me.

I step outside an old biker bar and start to pick the lock on one the bikes, I've been walking around for days and my feet are killing me. I've been doing this all my life, stealing for my own gain.. Of course when I was a kid I used to think of myself as a modern aged "Robin Hood" but I'm far from it. The door to the bar swings open and a few drunken bikers step through. They stare at me and the largest of the group steps forward.

"What the **** do you think you are doing to my bike?"

I step forward and click the button on my staff, it outstretches and the half dozen or so of them glared at me, fists and chains at the ready.

"Your bike? It's mine now, Mon Ami"

The leader of the pack, who weighed a good 250 pounds waddled towards me and flung a punch. I ducked effortlessly and grabbed his hand, breaking every finger in his hand. He screamed and fell to the floor, I charged his leather glove up with a evil smile, it glowed pink and I stepped back as it exploded. Taking his hand with it. He fell to the floor screaming loudly, blood streaming down his stump of an arm. I looked at the rest of them and gave them a vulgar smile.

"Like I said.. "My bike", Anyone else got a problem?"

[Batman]

Mr.Valentine... Approved.

unstoppable... Not so much. I'm gonna need you to fix some things in your application. Notably the fact that you didn't fill out the sample post. (I know you play Hulk over at the Marvel RPG, so you could go over there and copy/paste your best post as your sample post, if you wanted.) After that I'll accept you, no problem.

BTW, for anyone who doesn't know, the IC thread was up as of yesterday. OU Season II is a go.

[unstoppable]

Some complications rose with my sample post so I'm gonna have teh put it here

Hulk is at first shocked of the transformation that occured upon Doctor Strange before his very eyes,but then relizes what he's up against when the good Doctor delivers a quick jab to the jaw which sends him back into a tree breaking it instantly.
"Funny collar glow?....wait funny collar hit Hulk"
Hulk is enraged by the attack and retaliates with an attack of his own with the help of the tree he smashed into.
"Hulk will not lose to Funny collar"
Hulk says rearing back his hands in a baseball pitchers stance with the tree in his hands
"HULK STRONGEST ONE THERE IS"
Hulk swings the tree at Strange but the good Doctor doesn't move an inch.Strange then quickly grabs Hulk by the throat
"To fight an Beast you must fight like an Beast"
Strange then proceeds to punch Hulk in the nose breaking it instantly.Hulk staggers around waiting for his nose to heal,the blood dripping down his body,he goes to his knees as the blood stops flowing.Hulk looks up at the Doctor towering over him,and starts to grind his teeth.
"HULK"
he gets up on one knee
"WILL NOT"
He begins to stand upright still staggering to his feet
"LOSE TO MAN WITH FUNNY COLLAR AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH"
Hulk punches Strange into a gas station which causes a major explosion.Strange plows out of the rubble and looks around for Hulk
"Where are you foul creature"
Strange looks around only to find Hulk leaping at him
"HULK RIGHT HERE"



Hulk tackles the Doctor and proceeds to fight the good Doctor, and blow after blow matches each others until they're at a stand still.

Watchman, Joker's already been introduced, Q did a pretty good job with his origin. Even had his first encounter with the Bat, although it didn't last long and he escaped. (Bats underestimated him.)

Just letting you know incase you though you had to introduce him from scratch.
