"From The Pages Of..." Comics Universe RPG: Season I Signup/OOC Thread

Great work Cats/Byrd. I'm really digging this stuff you guys are doing.

Read the end of The Gunslinger by Stephen King. You'll see Cats and I are nothing but, dirty, dirty thieves.

With embelishments! Dude, they think we can write - stop telling the truth for once!
 
Okay so what's been established? Anything?

I haven't read the IC thread in about...

Well ever really.
 
The first two Ghostbuster films have already taken place, and the guys had suffered through some down time after the Vigo incident. Lately though business has been picking up.
Only change I made with them is making them busters of all thing paranormal, not just ghosts.

The guys have now teamed up with the BPRD in hopes to stop another reality that is merging/taking over our own. As such, all manner of weird **** is appearing all over the world.

Currently the team is in Barrow, Alaska with Liz Sherman, Abe, and Hellboy investigating a vampire epidemic.
I play as Ray, but Egon, Peter, and Winston are all NPCs. I know Byrd toyed with the idea of playing Venkman, but his sandy vagina got in the way.
 
Well then **** it.

"You know I don't always look like this."

Peter Venkman stood, in the middle of a hallway in a rather large office building covered head to toe in some form of ectoplasmic slime. With him stood a very confused and flustered employee.

"This... gunk it's all part of the hazards of the job. The stuff I have to deal with." He said, pooring on the over-confident charm he'd perfected in his youth.

He sighed quietly. "Sometimes I just wish I could have one normal night out, you know... to a movie or for a meal or something along those lines... Possibly with a good looking woman like yourself but these hard nights on the job just don't allow it."

The young woman clicked her tongue sympathetically and raised a hand to the Doctor's slime-covered cheek.

"You poor man, it must be awful not leading a normal life."

"VENKMAN!"Another voice interjects from somewhere in the building, Peter chooses to ignore it.

"It really is sometimes, It's why most of my relationships fail."

"We'll go out, next thursday!"
The young woman smiled, enthusiastically, clapping her hands together and looking the Ghostbuster in the eye.

Venkman turned away and smiled slyly before continuing.

"Oh no I couldn't-"
He began before being interrupted.

"I insist! Here let me give you my phone number."
The beautiful red-head reached into her purse and rumaged around.

"Venkman!? VENKMAN!"
The other voice called again as Peter Venkman's colleague turned the corner. Dashing toward his friend, Ray grabbed the charmer by the arm and dragged him away. "We found the problem! It's down in the sewers! Come on!"

"No... Ray, I..."
Venkman struggled valiantly against his team-mates grip as he was forced away from the young woman he'd spent so much time seducing. Eventually his prize was out of sight.

"Dammit Ray! AFTER the phone number, AFTER. How many damn times?"

Do you know how to post pictures on the Hype boards?:

I mean, approved. :o

I've been using Sienna for Peter, Navy for Egon, and DarkSlateGray for Winston. But, if you don't like Sienna, feel free to change 'er on up. :up:

But not to gray. That's Ray's ****ing color. :cmad:
 
*Takes note to start every Venkman post with a Slayer song*
 
Slayer works. Will also accept videos for System of a Down, Megadeth, Pantera, Metallica, or Rage Against the Machine.
 
Awesome to have you on board Gallagher.

Looks like this game is pretty much alive and well.

If only we could get some dang villains on board.

Originally appearing from (which comic, and company?): G.I. Joe (Marvel, Devil's Due)

Fictional history of the character (as you're going to interpret it):

Little is known of Cobra Commander's history.
He appeared on the world stage from seemingly nowhere, spreading terror and mayhem across the globe. Leader of the ruthless terrorist organization, Cobra, the Commander is a blood-thirsty dictator bent on overthrowing the governments of the world. Cobra Commander rules his organization from the terrordrome, a technological fortress in the middle of Cobra Island, the main headquarters of Cobra's worldwide network. Through legal means, Cobra Island became a soviergn nation under the UN banner. And the Commander has used this to victory to his advantage, spreading his propaganda to those who will listen.

The Commander and Cobra are the very reason the elite special forces unit, designated G.I. Joe, came into being.

List a few reasons why you chose this character: I'm a G.I. Joe fan, and this game needs another villain.

Write two complete sentences explaining what you can bring to this RPG: I can bring experience in role-playing.

How many days a week you intend on posting in the RPG: As many as need be, life permitting.

Please provide a small sample post as your character, at least three paragraphs and one line of dialogue in length:

The Commander's eyes narrowed as he leaned forward in his throne.

"What was that?"

The viper swallowed the knot in his throat as he tried to remain steady as he replied to the Commander.

"We...were unable to retrieve the package."

"Ah, that's what I thought you said", Cobra Commander leaned back in his seat, looking down at the two soldiers standing at the base of the steps leading up to his throne. This was his ornately decorated audience chamber, a place where he could remind his underlings just who ruled Cobra.
The two vipers were part of a mission, a supposed secret mission, in which they were to retrieve a vital piece to the Commander's doomsday weapon.
To say he was angry at their failure was an understatement.

The Commander pulled out his sidearm and shot the viper in the head.
The other soldier jumped in fright at the shot and remained frozen in shock as two of the Commander's guards silently strode up and removed the body.

"Go on", the Commander bade the surviving viper.
"Why were you unable to secure the package?"

The Commander waited to hear the inevitable reply of "it was the Joes", but that answer never came.

"It was weird. Some sort of group of freaks. They were all cat-people, dressed up like superheroes. One guy, the leader, looked like a lion. Carried a big ****ing sword-"

BLAM!

Smoke slowly wafted up from the barrel of the Commander's gun as the guards gragged the body of the viper away.

I've...uh...never seen such an...effeminate pic of Cobra Commander before...


Although the fact that he's holding Megatron is absolutely bad ass.
 
What's the status on The Doctor?

I know someone picked him up awhile ago can't remember who or if theyr eally did anything with him.
 
They were setting something up. They had the first Doctor in 2009, and it looked like he was starting to die of old age, while the fourth or sixth (?) was in 2014 (?) in the middle or end of some massive war (?).
