"One Universe" Marvel & DC Crossover RPG!

[MaskedManJRK]

Sounds ok to me, would have to confirm it with another mod

I have really fallen behind on the Ultimate RPG, and so if this RPG goes well, I may drop out of that to commit to this full-time. I just have a few questions:

1. I read the first 2 pages of the RPG - and The Question's Joker posts (seeing that I have an interest in the character - great job Question!) - so I know some of the basic plot points. But could somebody fill me in on all the major arcs going on at the moment?

Fantastic fours press conferance
Ollie Queens party
Then an invasion by Darkseid

2. Just to clarify, is this a restart of sorts? Are characters just beginning to be re-established? And so, would that mean we can possibly tweak a character's origin/personality?

personality stay largely the same. but orgins can be tweaked


3. What locations are being used currently? And what's the current situation in Gotham City?

Star City
Gotham
New York
Mertroperlus
LA

Ah, I didn't see you already posted something. Whoops.

Thanks for the help. But just as I felt about ready to apply, I now have a NEW batch of questions to ask.

I was going to play as The Joker, but The Question is playing as him. Perfectly fair, in my opinion. I have him in the DC RPG - somebody else deserves a shot. Then my second choice was Lex Luthor, but it seems Master Bruce is using him as an NPC. So I had about settled on my third choice - Harvey Dent. But I've just found out taskmaster is playing as him! The whole multiple character thing can get pretty confusing!

So, here are some more questions:

1. Would it be okay if I reverted to my second choice, Lex Luthor? Or does Master Bruce currently have the rights to him?

2. If I was able to post an application for Lex Luthor, could someone fill me in on what has happened involving his character so far? Right now all I have is the Luthor/Fisk merger.

3. Could you please give me more info on the Metropolis of this RPG in general?

1. Don't see why you couldn't. Just ask MB if he had plans, and maybe both of ya could collab. or something.

2. Well, he's just met Superman for the first time and essentially kicked his ass with words. I think he was also invited to the Queen's Ball (sorry, it had to be said ) as well.

3. It's been mostly Superman's coming. Lois just got the big interview, and all that jazz.

Hope that helps.

1.That is perfectly fine with me.My main purpose in using Lex was introducting Superman to him,and I've already done that,So really...I'm done,right now.I know you'd do Lex justice,and it'd be great to have you on board,Soze.

2.So far,Superman has accused him of an insurance scam,but due to Superman having no proof,He couldn't do anything about it.(Plus,Lex denies it,so it's really word vs. word,on that matter.)Lex had also,apparentally,offered Reed Richards a job,but Reed turned it down.Lex was invited to Oliver Queen's coming home bash,and is expected to attend,aswell.(Though He'd be your character,so you're free to decline.)

3.The Metropolis I envisioned when taking on the role of Superman was that of a futuristic,cleaner version of Batman Begins' Gotham City.A much less corrupted version with computers,if you will.I even added the element of the Monorail.(The Bat-Geek in me couldn't pass it up.)

Character-wise,if that's what you mean...I've incorperated elements from the Donner version of Superman into the characters,aswell as Lois And Clark,and The Animated Series.(Aside from the comics,of course.)

Hey guys! I've been having a look at this RPG - some really great writing so far. This is an RPG I would be interested to be a part of. However, right now I'm part of the Marvel RPG, the DC RPG, the Ultimate RPG and an e-fed on another website. Add University commitments onto that, and I'm stretched pretty thin.

I was wondering if I could possibly apply to join on a trial basis. I have really fallen behind on the Ultimate RPG, and so if this RPG goes well, I may drop out of that to commit to this full-time. I just have a few questions:

1. I read the first 2 pages of the RPG - and The Question's Joker posts (seeing that I have an interest in the character - great job Question!) - so I know some of the basic plot points. But could somebody fill me in on all the major arcs going on at the moment?

2. Just to clarify, is this a restart of sorts? Are characters just beginning to be re-established? And so, would that mean we can possibly tweak a character's origin/personality?

3. What locations are being used currently? And what's the current situation in Gotham City?

I have a character in mind that I may apply for. While I look up some info on them, could somebody please get back to me ASAP? Thanks, and sorry if I'm being awkward.

1. Ollie's big party, likely to be interrupted by a fairly rude and large green man in purple pantaloons.
2. Scarecrow's Fear Gas in Gotham City.
3. The invasion of Earth by Darkseid, Lord of Apokolips.

2. It's a restart, sort of, but really the only thing that's changing is a blending of the universes for the origins of the heroes. I'd personally like to see fewer Marvel heroes in New York City, but that's mostly because I think it's silly on a fundamental level (i.e., where in the hell was everyone else when Galactus wanted to munch on Earth the first time? Does no one really care at all about Spidey? Why wouldn't Cap denounce the Daily Bugle at some point?).

3. Metropolis
Gotham City
Star City
New York City

As to who you could play as, I'd personally like to see some Baron Zemo, Kang the Conqueror, Dr. Strange, Dr. Fate, Alan Scott, Hal Jordan, Mr. Mxyzptlk, Thanos of Titan, J'onn J'onzz, and some Blue Beetle (Ted Kord). Really, when it comes to something like this, there are just so many choices.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Thanks for the info. I think I'll put up an application:

"One Universe" RPG SIGN-UP FORM

Screen Name: Keyser Soze

Character you would like to play: Lex Luthor

Brief description of his/her powers and Bio:

Alexander Joseph "Lex" Luthor. Metropolis' favourite son. His life reads as one of the greatest success stories in recent history. Born in the Suicide Slum district of Metropolis, Luthor used intelligence, ambition, and a large insurance policy gained from the death of his parents to establish Lexcorp, an international corporation whose technological advances would make Luthor a billionaire, one of the richest men in the world. With his brilliant mind and unlimited resources, Lex Luthor is a powerful man, respected and admired all over the world, particularly by the citizens of Metropolis. But Luthor is not quite what he seems...

Three reasons why you have chosen that character:

1. Lex Luthor is one of the greatest villains in comics. He is an essential figure in any DC-related RPG.

2. Since I usually play as street-level villains, it would make a nice change to play as someone more powerful.

3. The Joker was taken.

What can you bring to this game?

I think I can bring some RPing experience to this RPG. I've been playing as Bullseye in the Marvel RPG for over a year now, and I play as The Joker in the DC RPG. More recently, I have also been involved in the Ultimate Marvel RPG. If there is one thing I'd say is my strength, it is playing a villain in a way that gives their character more depth, making them a fully-rounded, human character first, and a "bad guy" second.

How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG:
At least once, more if necessary.

Do you know how to post pictures on the hype boards: Yep.

[twylight]

Got a question...or two..


If we're tweaking the characters slightly. Should Dinah have naturally blonde hair? Or should I go with the original black hair?

I myself have always liked the blonde, because it makes Dinah stand out. Its up to you Twy.

 

[twylight]

I'll go with blonde. Thanks, I just needed a second opinion.

 

[Batman]

I would've chosen blonde aswell.Especially since you're already playing a black haired character...

And great first post,Soze.I look forward to any future Superman/Lex confrontations between us.

 

[Sparta*]

Hey Keyser, Spider-man, Superman, and the FF were planning on having one of Lex Luthors robots attack the FF's press conference because Lex heard about Reed Richards intelligence and wanted him to work for him, but Reed turned him down, so Lex was sending a robot to capture him...but then the FF spider-man and superman were going to stop it....is this cool with you? Or do you want me to edit the robot thing?

 

[Batman]

A number of people could have robots,though.Right?

Maybe,if Soze doesn't want Lex to be behind it,we could say it was a different person behind the attempted kidnapping.




...I only say this because I just made a full Superman post acknowledging the robot's existance.

 

[Red]

It could be Dr Doom behind it.

 

[Batman]

Doom is trying to free his mother from Mephisto,I think.

...What about...Toyman?

 

[Sparta*]

Well we should wait to see if Keyser is cool with this idea...it would make the most sense if Luthor was behind it (because of Reed) If he doesn't want to we can start thinking of alternatives...and yes, Doctor Doom is trying to free his moms soul from Mephistos hell dimension

 

[Keyser Soze]

Hey, sorry for the delay. I'd say having the robot go after Reed Richards sounds okay. But could I possibly make a few suggestions?

Don't make the links to Lex Luthor obvious. I don't mind ultimately being behind the attempted robot kidnap, but maybe have a fall-guy ready to take the blame rather than coming after me and bringing my empire crumbling down around my ears. I think it's a bit early in the game to have all the heroes gunning for Luthor.

However, if it helps with your story, I'll make a post revealing I was behind the attack while the heroes are left stumped as to just who is behind the attack. You can suspect I'm behind it, but of course you have no proof...

I hope that's okay.

 

[Sparta*]

Sounds good to me

Happy Birthday Question.

 

[Midnight Ice]

Hey I know everybody is busy with their characters, but does anybody want to find Cap's body in ice? if so, pm me...

 

[The Question]

Mabey Superman could do it.

Happy Birthday Question.

Thankies. Happy unbirthday to you.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Oh yeah, Happy Birthday Question!

 

[MaskedManJRK]

Happy B-Day, Q.

Happy Birthday dude
