APPLICATION: Future Marvel RPG

Since you're using World War Hulk and the impending Skrull crossover...it's pretty safe to assume that Spider-Man's unmasking still exists in this continuity? If so, is there any way to just magically poof that away?

Yeah, don't include it in the continuity.
 
Hello RPer's. I'm a newbie when it comes to things like this I admit. However I love to write and think I could do it if I gave it a try.

This seems like a fascinating idea, I'd love to play an aging Victor Von Doom, desperately trying to hold onto Latveria as the Skrull enslave his people.

I'm sorry in advance if I get anything wrong, like I said, this is new for me.

I doubt Syn'll participate, but I'd be for it.

Reserve for Spidey, anyone? :woot:

Well, It's late and I'm fairly tired after work so I'm not up to writing anything new tonight, but here is something I wrote a while ago featuring Doom.



Lightening danced across the midnight sky illuminating the grassy region known as Latveria. An old structure stood atop a hill looming over a small village like a deadly shadow, its walls high and its moat deep, a fortress.
Inside music and entertainment occupied the inhabitants. People cheered and laughed at the jesters and musicians, the food was warm and the drink plenty, yet still an air of mysticism and foreboding claimed the otherwise joyous halls.

“More wine! Were down to the last dozen bottles! At the rate Ivan is throwing it down it won’t last out the night.” Joked a hearty man, his beard slightly unkept yet otherwise smartly dressed, an air of importance and nobility surrounded him.
“Bah! I’m doing the drinking for the both of us it seems old friend. It’s a celebration is it not?” Ivan took another large swig of his drink.
“Sure looks that way, although I’m not entirely sure what were s’posed to be celebrating”, hiccupped another man, food crammed into his mouth by an eager fist.
The hall was filled with people celebrating, Long tables scattered around, filled to the brim with food. Another loud cheer erupted as several entertainers began to juggle with flame.

An unoccupied throne stood at the end of the stretching hall, its grandeur and elegance said a lot about its owner, the instigator of these festivities. The lord’s absence had not gone unnoticed; many of the conversations that night were discussions of the whereabouts of one Victor Von Doom.

“Humph, he’s probably in the basement tinkering away at his beloved machines. He’s so far in his own little world that he has most likely forgotten about the invitations he sent out.” Another nobleman declared in a rather loud and obnoxious voice.
“Not so loud Hector, You forget that you are but a Lord of Latveria, Victor is our ruler and you’d best stay your tongue. Yes, the people love him.”
“Well the people aren’t privy to his company, he’s psychotic. We’d be better off without him; we were more than comfortable before his arrival. What makes the son of a gypsy so special that he usurps the governors and seizes our land? He probably only keeps us around to amuse himself.” Hector said loudly so everybody could here.

“And amusing you are Lord Hector” A towering figure had taken up his throne, a cloaked hood casting shadows over his masked face.
“I am well aware of the court’s mindset; you would have me killed, if you were not so spineless.”
“Lord Doom, let me be the first to congratulate you on such a fine feast.” Squealed a small man, his face clearly terrified at the mere sight of his dictator. “I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say your are most mistaken sire, we do not wish you harm. Hector has had a bit too much to drink, that is all. We are lo-”
“I am mistaken am I? You think I am wrong? That I am not wise?” Doom interrupted before the small man could finish. Now practically trembling the man stepped back toward the rest of the nobles.
“No, no of cour-”
“You think you can do a better job of leading the people of Latveria? You wish to usurp me is that it?” Doom said calmly, his voice deep yet unthreatening.
The man did not speak. Hector decided to in his stead. “Now see here Doom-” A burst of energy sent the soon to be lifeless body of Hector slamming against a far wall.
The room gasped and looked at the singed corpse, looking between there ruler and there dead friend most of the noblemen just stood and stared. Victor Von Doom rose from his chair silently and surveyed his audience.
“Anybody else care to share their sentiments?” The room was deathly silent. The small man stepped forward.

“My lord… Why did you call us all here?”
“I am going away for a time. Do not fret, for I shall return. In my place I leave you all in charge of your respective lands.” Doom answered, speaking to his guests with a sneer beneath his mask. ‘Pathetic creatures’ Victor thought. He hated the fact he actually had use for these snivelling beings. It had been Doom who had taken control of these people 4 years ago, given them freedom and order, and how do they repay him? With disloyalty and murderous intentions.
“I shall take care of certain situations upon my return.”
“Where are you going Lord Doom? And for how long?” spoke Ivan.
“Do not worry, I shall return in a short while. I am going away on business; a certain item has come to my attention, an item I desire greatly. But it is no business of yours Ivan, nor of anybodies in this hall. Now leave, all of you. I must prepare for my trip.” The nobles began to slowly exit the hall constantly looking between the body of Hector and there dictator, Dr. Doom.
By the time the men had reached the doors Doom had left his throne, his sweeping cloak lashed behind a door on his way down to the dungeons.

“We can’t allow this to continue” Whispered a man to the rest “Doom’s departure may give us the opportunity we need”…


Hope that's OK, its a fairly recent prologue to a bigger story that never got off the ground.
 
Reserves:

EBJ- Spider-Man
Kaboom- Nate Grey
XBL- Elektra
Nowufacedoom- Doom

who else?
 
of course we can poof that away. we can poof away anything we dont like (except for dead Cap---although if we all read Captain America: The Chosen.......)

I'll help ya GM. I may not be able to get in the game for a while, but I can sure as hell help you at GMing. ;)

BTW, Cap Chosen is for the new Cap replacement. Steve Rogers is gone for at least 2 years. :(
 
I had an idea for when the RP starts, how about everybody writes a short prologue of what their character(s) were doing on the day the Skrull took over, call it S-day if you like. Just an idea. :yay:
 
Captain America: The Chosen isn't about replacing the 616 Captain America though, it's a Marvel Knights title (akin to Spider-Man: Reign or the several The End books). It's definetly not in continuity, as far as I know.

do you want to jump in on this rpg?

Not right now, I'm in too many RPG's as it stands and don't want to spread myself out anymore than I already have.

I agree with X that there are already enough RPG's for my liking in the Marvel forum and also don't like a few of the idea's being thrown around.

But I'll see how it goes I guess :o.

Well, I don't think it'd just be a day. I think a takeover like this would span over months, with the humans fighting for as long as they can before stopping.
 
Oh ok, I envisioned it as a very quick takeover, akin to war of the worlds, were it takes a matter of hours/days. Was my sample OK Eddie?

I see no flaw (with the sample).

But the difference is that in War of the Worlds, you didn't have superheroes fighting back. That only prolongs the process.

Yes, that is a lot more logical. I see where your coming from now. And thank you.

For some reason (this is totally out of the blue) I feel it would be really effective if someone like Deadpool was a casualty, gives it that feeling of no one is spared. Not even the nigh-invlunerable 4th wall breaking comic relief.

Anyway, I'm getting ahead of myself, we need more players before going into detail I assume?`

Sadly, yes...we're short on support.
 
rally the troops! i think this would make a great story especially since it takes our heroes who usually work to keep the status quo and switches the gambit around to make it all age of apocalypsy...

I seriously need to buy Age of Apocalypse because I have never read all of it. Just bits and pieces. The premise always had me interested, same thing with this RPG showing the Heroes and Villains in a different time and situation than they would normally appear.
I'm quite excited by this, hope we can get it approved.
 
One or two characters? Let's Vote!


Also, I think that Kaboom is right and a death list might not be neccesary yet, but for my "Elektra being the new Daredevil in honor of Matt Murdock who died bravely rebelling against the Skrulls" idea, any body who wants to reserve a character should decide if anyone in their storyline is alive or dead, a great example being that EBJ has got dibs on Spidey, so he should decide if MJ is dead or not, and a different perspective being is if someone wanted to play Moon Knight, but he isn't Marc Spector, just another person being Moon Knight because he's retired or dead, they could add Marc Spector to the casualties, and with that said:

We should have these as rules:

  • Must post origin and personality in your application regardless of character.
  • A new character must be based on or related to a preexisting Marvel Comics hero/villain. This mean you cannot create someone totally random that has never existed in any form before. Relatives of past heroes with a brand new persona are also allowed.
So that way we can be extra-creative.​
 
Might I suggest that, in addition to a Dead List, we have a Skrull List?

That way, we can keep track of what heroes were secretly Skrulls at the time of the takeover.

That's a great idea. It could give players a chance to explain their characters backstories better.
