I don't know. Maybe Joey Q finally crossed the ultimate line and moved X-23 into DC. We better check to make sure.

[Lockandload1]

Holy crap. I posted in the wrong format AND forum.
Damn you, virus-ridden computer.

Uh...sorry. But you really don't have to talk down to me, you know.
I'm tired, so give me an effing break.

[Byrd Man]

If you plan on hanging around here, you better get used to someone giving you **** about a slip-up.

[Lockandload1]

Thank god that's over.
I'll cut the crap and post something useful a little later.

[wiegeabo]

You think that's talking down? You're lucky you caught Byrd in a good mood.


Honestly...he's an *******.

DC RPG Season VII Application

Screen Name: Superferret

Character you would like to play (please include the color and font you plan on using to portray the character): Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Red, Comic Sans, Bold)

Powers and Brief Origin (provide at least two sentences) If you copy/paste this information from another website, link back to it, or it is considered plagiarism and is not allowed. : After being bitten by a radioactive spider, Peter Parker was gifted with the abilities and powers of a human spider. Gifted with the proportionate strength, speed and agility of a spider, as well as the ability to adhere to anything using any part of his body and a mysterious "Spider-sense" that warns him of impending danger, Peter went into showbiz, designing his webshooters and an incredibly gaudy outfit. After his uncle Ben was killed by a burglar that Peter could have stopped, he learned that "with great power must come great responsibility" and henceforth used his powers to serve the good of society as the Amazing Spider-Man! Yay!

Group your character is aligned with (if applicable): None.

Write two complete sentences using proper English grammar. One to explain what you plan to do with the character you've chosen. The other to explain why you've chosen this character. (i.e. What are your goals? Will you be doing anything different with the character than is usually seen?): I'll bring an incredibly popular character into this game, one that surprisingly hasn't been used in this game yet. Plus, this should get under Byrd's skin, and that's always fun.

Do you have an Instant Messenger? Which one, and what is your screen name?: Yes, MSN - superferret516@hotmail.com

If you know how to post pictures, please provide a picture of your character you wish to be used for the Character Roster (if you do not know how, or do not have a preference, please say so and a default picture shall be picked for you):



Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in (must be at least 3 paragraphs long and contain at least one line of dialogue):

So, I accepted Agent Arnold's offer (like I had any other choice), and I got my assignment.

Oh crap.

I had to interview Cletus Kasady, the world's worst serial killer.

Carnage.

Now I know why I was "perfect" for this job. Kasady's killed four of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s top psychologists, and critically injured Dr. Leonard Samson before the Army got Samson out. Luckily for the doc, Samson was gamma-powered, like the Hulk, but Carnage still killed two soldiers, and he wore their skulls as slippers for more than a week.


I entered Kasady's cell, an immense adamantium-lined hangar with what looked like a box made of vibrating air in the center. In the center of the box sat the man himself. Kasady smirked at me as I approached. I knew that I was safe, that the "vibrating air" was a wall of sound, keeping the madman secured, mostly. In the case that he did break free, the oxygen rich artificial atmosphere would ignite, burning everything inside, except for whatever was confined in the sonic cube. If he escaped, Carnage's only shelter would be his prison.

Pretty smart idea , I thought as I glanced around, noting the obvious scorch marks around the cage's perimeter.

I had to enter the cage in order to talk to Kasady. He'd have it no other way, so I stepped through as the guys in the control room lowered the shield's intensity. It was a risk, but Cletus didn't move a muscle. And it hurt like a *****.

But, I made it, and sat in a small wooden chair across from Kasady who sat on his cot, still smiling maniacally. He reminded me of the Joker, y'know the clown guy from the Batman comics, in the way he smiled.

"Um... hi." I said, shifting uncomfortably in the S.H.I.E.L.D. uniform I wore (Carnage would've killed me already had he known I was such an awesome superhero), "I'm Craig, and I'm going to be asking you some quest-"


That's as far as I got. Kasady put his hand up, silenting me. Then, he says, "Hang on, 'Craig', I have something I want to say first." His tone gets somber, "Today's Christmas, and, as an orphan, the holiday season has always been difficult for me."

"So, I want to wish you a Merry Christmas."

Then he stabbed me through the eye.

And the last thing that passed through my mind was:


Next year's going to suck.

Approved. Can't wait to see him working with the Titans.

[Byrd Man]

Isn't it bad enough you've brought Jor-El and Krypton to the Marvel U?!

[Andy C.]

By the end of the year, we're just going to have three One-Universe RPGs.

[SuperFerret]

I knew that'd get Byrd. It's too bad I couldn't find any good Spidey posts by him to use as the sample.

[Byrd Man]

I'll be goddammed if I have any mixing of the universes on my house.

*pulls out shotgun*

You Marvel boys ain't welcomed here. We don't like your kind.

Ouch, dude...low blow.

[Andy C.]

Damn, Ferret, just.....damn.

[SuperFerret]

What? I apologized.

[Saved]

Yeah, why is Jor-El in Marvel RPG anyway?

[SuperFerret]

I came up with this idea that seeing Reed Richards and Jor-El tackle a scientific problem would be awesome. So I had the FF get sent into a DCU and back in time, and land on Krypton.
