Edit didnt work before but Manly Torch is Taskmaster

moddified

[Mr. Marko]

EDIT Ah, nm. Thanks guys. Any cool/wanted openings?

[The Manly Torch]

I totally came up with a cool idea for Taskmaster in the shower a few days ago, but I forgot. So I just came up with some crap.

Anyways, whenever I paste into the thing and preview it, my every paragraph has double the line space between them. Is this common?

[Mr. Majestic]

Sab I wasn't aware that me and Byrd were both playing Captain America. Looks like i need to get a post in then.

Venom
Johnny Storm
Ben Grimm
Sandman
Gambit

Would like to see one of those

[J'adore]

I'm dropping Emma, I just want to focus on Janet/Jocasta right now.

[Mr. Marko]

Whats the state of the Fantastic Four? Do they have their powers yet? Is Johnny a teenager or what?

[Byrd Man]

I actually picked up Reed last night.

The FF are currently powerless. Reed and Sue are currently scientists working for NASA on a warp engine. Based out of the Baxter Building, they work with NASA pilot Ben Grimm, NASA pulled their funding recently. Johnny is an actor in LA.

[Andy C.]

Reed Richards and Sue Storm are already seeing each other, and Ben is Reed's Air Force drinking buddy from working together at the Baxter Building. Johnny is a movie star, last time he was played. So far none of them have powers yet.

Also, as I've said a few times, I'm wanting to get Spidey's classic villains established before going into gimmicky crap like the symbiotes, so I'm going to put the kibosh on Venom til at least Season 2.

[Mr. Marko]

Sounds good. I know you had Max Dillon set up. A teenage version of him could be cool to play. What villains are you thinking of?

Well, so far, I've got Electro/Max Dillon as a crazed classmate of Peter who juiced himself up on a bio-electric formula stolen from Tri-Corp. He attacked the school's Homecoming dance and tried to kill Mary Jane, but was stopped by Spidey. He's currently in prison.

Here's the skinny on the rest of the Spidey villains thus far.

Already established villains:

Tombstone/the Big Man: Brooklyn's crime boss, a former hitman for Silvermane who is trying to take control of New York for himself.

Herman Schultz/Shocker: a high tech arms dealer, who sells his 'shock trooper' suits on the Black Market. Is currently planning to prove his loyalty to the Big Man by attacking the nearest NYPD precinct, in an attempt to kill Captain Stacy.

The Tinkerer: Big Man's gadget-guy, believed to be former CIA, now designs weapons for the mob.

Silvio Manfredi/Silvermane: New York's biggest crime boss, currently fighting on three fronts, against the police, Tombstone, andMatt Murdock and his Devils of Hell's Kitchen.

Wilson Fisk/The Kingpin: a high-class industrialist and major player on Oscorp's board of trustees, Fisk is also an alleged drug mogul with ties to the terrorist organization HYDRA. After his under-the-table dealings with Norman Osborn were revealed, Fisk is blackmailing Osborn into sharing some of his special projects with him. The Kingpin also stands to gain greatly from the turf war between Silvermane and Tombstone.

Established but not villains yet:

Norman Osborn: Peter Parker's adopted foster father and owner of Oscorp, Norman is a little mousey compared to his usual counterpart, fairly terrified of the Kingpin, but determined to do anything to protect Harry and Peter from him. Question can give you a better description than that blurb if necessary.

Otto Octavius: played by Raindog for a quick cup of coffee but now available, Octavius is one of the scientists working on a cold-fusion device. I'm planning on Doc Ock being the 'biggest' villain Spidey faces this season (in terms of how threatening his master-plan is), only outdone in deadliness by the Green Goblin.

Eddie Brock: Peter's former 'Big Bro' who then joined the football team and now hounds him even worse than the other jocks, Eddie has a lot of deep-seated resentment towards Peter, particularly over the affections of Gwen Stacy. Even though he's currently dating Gwen, she's still really in love with Peter, which makes Eddie hate him even more. I'm wanting him to remain as a foil for Peter Parker for a good while before turning him into Venom.

Drs. Curt Connors and Miles Warren: geneticists working for Oscorp, Connors and Warren are the heads of the team specializing in 'DNA Reflux' research, the project that inadvertantly created the spider that bit Peter.

Flint Marko and Alex O'Hirn: you played Marko for a bit, so you know what his whole deal is. They're currently being held prisoner by the Tinkerer, who plans to turn them into Sandman and Rhino to create a pair of invincible enforcers for Tombstone.

Planned for this season but not established, and thus completely fair game:

Vulture
Black Cat
Kraven the Hunter
Silver Sable
Hammerhead

Everyone else hasn't been touched yet, but they're all available if you want them (well, except Osborn since Q's playing him). And though that's my planned lineup, I'm willing to go off of that if someone wants to pick up another villain or do a team-up or something.

[Mr. Marko]

Hmm...the Vulture could be cool. I would want to have him be in the school though. I'm wanting to play a teenage character in Spidey's school, so maybe I'll work something out with that. Adrian Toomes hasn't been established at all then?

[sabetoonth]

just an idea so toomes could still be old is to use Blackie Drago, thought jsut poped in

[Andy C.]

Hmmmm.....a teenage Vulture would be rather interesting. Maybe he could've been friends with Max Dillon, and is going after Spider-Man for putting his friend in jail.

[sabetoonth]

very, though youd have to redo your vulture micro maybe lol

[Andy C.]

'S cool with me. I don't mind doing more micro designs.

[Mr. Marko]

I like the idea. I'll whip up an application. Blackie Drago would probably be a better choice too, I agree.

and thats why your awesome

[Mr. Marko]

Character you would like to play: Robert "Blackie" Drago

Powers: None, although his intelligence rivals Peter Parker. He is particularly talented in physics, computer engineering and design.

Basic history of the character (Up until this point): Blackie Drago is a new student at Midtown High. The only student who ever really extended a hand of friendship to him was Max Dillon, who is now in prison. Drago is also working part time as a lab assistant in a robotics lab at Toomes Inc., a small branch-off company of Oscorp. His mentor is Dr. Adrian Toomes, a genius inventor who is working on a personalized self-propulsion device. With Max now gone from the school, Blackie has become somewhat of a loner, although he personally has fostered a rivalry with Peter.

Why Have You Chosen That Character?: I want to play a teenage character to interact with Peter Parker, and make his life a living hell.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character (IE: How are you changing him or her?): Terrorize Peter in every aspect of his life.

Two Complete Sentences Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): I can bring an interesting and fun new character. I can bring...bubblegum?

Please provide a small sample post in the format you wish to portray your character in (Minimum three paragraphs/one line of dialogue, maximum six paragraphs):

"Well, well, lookie here, fellas." The local group of abnoxious typical jock-types were gathered together by the door. "New kid went out and bought himself a black leather jacket. Looks pretty cool, don't he, Kong?"

"Hehe...a regular Fonz."

"A skinhead Fonz!"

Ugh...nothing better than trying to avoid the slime of a new school. "Gentlemen."

Flash Thompson pulled back in in feigned horror. "Whoa! The Fonz speaks!"

I sigh, slightly annoyed, and push past them toward the doors. "I'm late for class, guys."

Eddie Brock moved in front of me, arms folded. "Hey Fonz, you forgettin' something?"

I look at Eddie, slightly annoyed. "Uh, nice skinny jeans?"

Eddie looks down for a moment, eying up his wardrode. "Yeah, they are, but that ain't it, pipsqueek." He holds out his hand. "New kid fee."

I look at Flash and Kong, then back at Eddie. "Are you serious?"

Eddie grins slightly. "Everybody's gotta pay the new kid fee. At least if you wanna avoid the alternative." Behind me, I can hear Kong chuckle something about swirlies.

"When will you *******s get it?"

Eddie leaned in. "Excuse me?"

"It was your fault Max Dillon attacked the school, you know. He was a genius. He'd already been published for some of the ideas he had for electrical amplification through a biological conductor." I stop for a moment to let what I just said confuse the three of them. "He was a prodigy, and was going to do great things."

Kong was the first to pipe up. "Like turn himself into a freakshow and try to kill us?"

I turn around and face him. "Do you think he would have done that if you didn't push him over the edge? Hmm?! The man was a genius pushed over the edge by your prepubescent heckling." I turn back to Eddie. "And now here you are, not a week later, and you're back to your same old games. Let me tell you something: it might not be tomorrow, or next week, or even next year, but all your idiotic ******** that you put on people is going to come back and bite you. HARD." I push past Eddie as he stands, half-furious, half-ashamed. "I just hope I'm there to see it happen."

The door slams behind me as I walk into the hallways. Behind me, I can hear Flash, Kong, and Eddie say something about I'm just a creep anyways, and probably couldn't afford the new kid fee. I shake my head as I open my locker. I've already got ideas on how to teach them a lesson they'll never forget.

Nice, it'll be interesting to see a teenage Vulture, allows for more of a rivalry with the web-slinger.
