Damn you, EBJ! Now the Chameleon actually looks appealing! :cmad:
You didn't think he was before? And you're the one who doesn't like the Joker? I'm beginning to suspect that you don't get villains in the slightest bit.
 
Hey all,

I'm off for vacation today (going to Amsterdam) and won't be back till the 11th so my posting will be sporadic but be sure that I will post to keep the stories moving.
 
I've been considering joining this RPG again, but as a Villain...and when I narrowed down to it I was thinking a Flash or Spidey villain. Problem I kept running into, is that I could only think of like something big that would require devotion of one of those 2 heroes given it would be from their Rogue Galleries. Top it off that I don't know what's currently going on in the RPG, I do not want to intrude on current plans. Plus...I don't think I'm too great at Villains.

So, I think I'll try a hero. I already asked JB about this and do not remember all the details about what Kaboom did with Hawkman and Hawkgirl. Something about being Galactus' heralds or something. Could someone tell me more of what he did? I think I'll be willing to work with that, and continue the Hawks' story.
 
I'll try to dig up the Hawk's story later. If you want to try and catch up yourself, just read some of Kaboom's stuff in season 2. He was pretty much the only one to use them (others may have just mentioned or used them briefly).


As for playing a villain, we don't really have a rogues gallery for any of the heroes rights now. So you could pick up a classic Spidey or Flash rogue, and do whatever you wanted to with them, even if it had nothing to do with Spidey or Flash.

I tried to look at his stuff...and its confusing. It isn't organized at all. From what I gathered, Hawkgirl used to be Galactus' Herald to save Thanagar from Galactus' destruction after Hawkman failed to fulfill some task for him? And then she betrays Galactus and Galactus goes through Silver Surfer as a Herald, and then Lobo when Lobo comes to Earth.

That was all I could gather. As I said, it was not the easiest format and style to read. Did he only have Hawkman help defeat Lobo and Galactus and drop him?
 
You'll have to wait a day for a Iron Man reply. If i try again i may produce acid that destroys my laptop...
 
Yea, the Hype has been extra ******ed this week. I couldn't get my next Marvel post up, because I had to go back to work. Guess how long I tried to get the Hype to load at my house? 11 minutes. Now I have to wait until I get home to try to post my already typed up post again.
 
The Hype's time has come. Like Constantinople or Rome before it, the website has become a breeding ground for suffering and injustice. It is beyond saving and must be allowed to die. This is the most important function of the League of Shadows. It is one we've performed for centuries. The Hype must be destroyed.

Was that 'over-the-top?' I can never tell!

:yay:
 
Okay, I learned one more thing thanks to Catman...apparently while Kaboom made mention of Hawkman knowing about Galactus and him coming to Earth...he never actually helped fight and stop him and Lobo, correct? Sounds like he dropped him before Galactus actually came.

The reason I am asking, is because I have my application partially filled out...but aside from the general fact of wanting to be aware, I'm trying to make sure I don't mess up his history.
 
Far as I remember, no, Hawkman was not involved in the Galactus/Lobo battles.
 
Just want to say awesome job to all those involved with the Defenders arc. It's been fantastic to read, and I'm really looking forward to the final battle with Doom!
 
Far as I remember, no, Hawkman was not involved in the Galactus/Lobo battles.

Okay, then I have one last question: about how long ago "in-game time" was the Galactus fight? 3 months? 6?

I feel, the only real way to continue Hawkman since he was aware of the Galactus thing but didn't end up going...would be to do explain it a bit. I have something in mind, I just need the time gap before I make my final decision on the idea. :cwink:
 
I'd say it's probably only been a few months. If I remember correctly, we only took a couple of weeks gap after the end of the Galactus Event.
 
"One Universe" RPG SEASON III SIGN-UP FORM

Screen Name: Shannow

Character you would like to play: Ronin

Powers: Ronin has no special powers, but he is a master athlete, tactician and weapons specialist. Mainly using a Katana and Nunchucks, Ronin is adept with most weaponry thanks to his heightened hand / eye co-ordination.

Brief biography of the character's history: Clint Barton, the man formerly known as Hawkeye inherited the Ronin moniker from the original Ronin, Maya Lopez.

List a few reasons why you have chosen that character:
Ronin doesn't have any crazy superhuman powers to have to work with.

He's a lesser known character, allowing me a measure of creativity.

He's got a cool suit :D
What can you bring to this game?: Enthusiasm and some good writing, I hope.

Color and font you plan on using for your character's speech:

Black, Century Gothic

How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: As many as needed.

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 1 line of dialogue):

“AAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH~!!”

His thoughts were cut as the thin scream piped up from the darkness below. Blue eyes scanned the rooftops before diverting to the maze of rat infested alleyways below. He stood now, as a second scream echoed and gave him a direction. Gloved hands pulled his mask into place and he slid the katana that was resting on his lap into its sheath. With a grunt, he leapt from his resting place and grasped an overhanging fire-escape. Quickly he scaled to the roof and set off at a steady lope towards to the distressed noise.

Within moments he was staring down at three men clad in black suits. One of them holding a coked pistol under the chin of a young woman. Despite the weapon touching her skin, the woman was valiantly trying to stop the other two men from tearing away the silk blouse she wore.

Ronin stood up and drew a pair of nunchucks from his waist belt. With a roar he leapt from the rooftop towards the alleyway.

The trio turned and looked up in the direction of the noise. Framed in the light of a full moon a black-clad man descended upon them like a ghostly shadow. The gunman swun his pistol towards the figure, but before his forefinger could squeeze the trigger a nunchuck smashed the gun from his hand before whipping up and shattering his nose. As blood sprayed out in a bright arc from the mans face, the demon was already on the attack with the other two would-be rapists. His other nunchuck shattered the jaw of another man before he stepped in close to the third, parried a left hook and butted his head viciously into his opponents.

As Ronin stood over the sprawled, bleeding bodies of his adversaries, he turned to find the young woman he had just rescued. She stood about three feet away from him trembling with terror and pointing the fallen gun towards him. She whimpered something in Japanese as she slowly backed her way out of the alley, the gun pointed at his chest until the moment she disappeared around the corner and ran for her life.

Ronin glanced down at the groaning bodies around him and sighed. "Yeah, nice to know the locals appreciate the help" he muttered to himself.

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

I'm pretty sure the One Universe doesn't exactly have a Ronin, at least not in the form of Maya Lopez. This RPG isn't based off of the normal/current Marvel and DC continuities.
