Hey guys, in case you didn't see my post in the bulletin board, I'm going to be out of town from tomorrow until sometime Sunday night. I'll try getting some posts in when I get back Sunday but I'm not sure what time that will be so I can't make any promises.
 
I'm having a crack a page by page run-downs... I'm about halfway through page 1 at the moment.

Hopefully I'll have another post up in the coming days too.
 
Perhaps these page by page run-downs could be put on the opening page of the OCC, perhaps in spoiler tags, just to make it a bit more accessible to new/returning players.

Page 1:
Icon: Despite being able to lift 100 tons and run up to 100mph, the Icon, one of the most powerful figures on the planet has chosen to pick up his life and run away. He's taken on a job in construction just outside of Boston and has decided to live in anonymity. He's meeting new people in this new life and attempting to paint over his old one. Being the sole link between these two lives past and present one of his new found friends Marty has attempted to help him fix his loneliness by setting him up with a friend, Kelly. It takes a while for Scott to begin to open up to this new girl though, understandable due to all that he's lost, but when Kelly bridges the gap by sharing the fact that she's lost people too and lending a sympathetic ear the two begin to get much closer.
The next day Marty and Scott talk about the previous night's events, and another lunch with Kelly is revealed to have been set up by Marty and Deb. At the lunch Kelly drops the bomb that she knows who he is by posing the question of why he would give that lifestyle up.

Olympus Mons: Charles Atlas, son of renowned astronomer Dr. Gregory Atlas has now been endowed with freakish new powers after an accident with an experiment designed to test and study the effects of solar winds on Mars.

The Youngster/Samson the Mighty: The Youngster has increased his workload with the loss of the Icon, whereabouts unknown. He's feeling it's effects somewhat and has returned home for a rest. No sooner has he arrived home than Sam's friend Dave has called him up to come down to the club, understanding that the only thing he needs as much as rest is to blow spend some time in his other identity with friends Sam agrees to go to the club. At the club we hear the words in the wind, the city is a buzz with talk about the next big event; a race featuring all of the best Speedsters - including Samson and the famed Blue Blur.
After helping to open the club for the night Sam decides to stick around to blow off some steam and has a great night, making quite an impression on Lexa, before he has to leave as his life as Sam gets disturbed by the sound of two loud bangs somewhere off in the distance.
Arriving en scene to investigate the source of the disturbance he finds a speedster with a message for Blue Blur, that the race is far from over.
Lexa and Sam continue where they left off at the club, getting to know each other even better before finishing with a thought on his hoodie that he hadn't thought of before...

Blue Blur: Meanwhile the Blue Blur is doing publicity and preparing for his big race...

The Goddess: Goddess had managed to avoid capture and snuck away after her last attempt to sneak grand scale power. She learned the lesson from her impetuousness and has now taken a more planned, patient outlook to securing her own power and extending her rule once more. After a month of self discovery she has regained her control over her own power. After her re-training and self reflection she discusses her future prospects with her loyal serf Patches, she is most displeased at the lack of magical items and magos to grow her own power. She is also sick with the plague. She gives him her orders and by the end of their discussion the path back to power seemed clearer than it first appeared...

The Invisible Man: Cole's life has had some big changes. With the death of the doctor and the destruction of the papers which provided the only method to safely remove the gland which has changed his life, the surgery now has been put off indefinitely. There is a new doctor and a new partner, and partner in the professional sense. The Director enjoys pulling strings greatly, and has taken this mint opportunity to forcibly "recruit" Cole as an agent. How long his new partner Robert Hawkes can keep him in line will still remain to be seen...

The Archangel: In the present day, the hero known as Archangel is fighting a demon that appears to be able to feed off of his own energy. We then flash back a month, to when Michael first learned of the challenge that he would be facing. Father Damien is preparing him for the demons that will come, it is his responsibility as God's chosen representative to face these 7 demons that now walk the earth. Each demon represents one of the seven deadly sins of Pride, Anger, Greed,
Lust, Sloth, Envy and Gluttony. Whilst Father Damien prepares Michael to better know thy enemy, we also see that Michael's relationship with Grace continues to be strained at best, non-existant at worst, as he follows the Spirit of Love's advice. All the better to keep her safe, is Michael's general thoughts on the matter. He loves her too much to put her life in
further danger.

The Vigilante: Isaac is re-introduced to us after the lapse in time between seasons as looking a lot worse for wear. Like The Youngster he has had to pick up the slack a lot for the Guardians in Icon's absence. Unlike Sam however, he doesn't have super powers to depend on... so he's begun to depend on other things outside of himself. Booze. His life has become even more stressful than it was just three months ago and this has not been helped by the fact that he's now aware that the
Government is spying on him and likely his entire team. After another nightworking on his wrist strength by emptying glasses down his gullet, he intervenes in a dispute between a prostitute and her pimp. Affected by a combination of the alcohol he'd consumed and his already burnt out state Isaac is not as convincing in the fight and despite being the "victor" leaves with a broken arm and in an even worse mental state than he was before.
The powers that be who work the Guardians behind the scenes have decided to put him on ice, before his burnout gets worse. Looking to improve the team's image in the absence of the Icon, the military top brass delegate the Vigilante to deliver a motivational speech in a large school hall in front of masses of school children in a program called Right-Track. This is far from what Isaac signed up for.
At the speech, Isaac's worst fears come to life as the motivational speech he was unprepared to give in the first place actually is a Q and A session with hundreds of school children who are more interested in other Guardians issues, namely Icon's decision to quit. Isaac himself barely understands the decision and doesn't agree with it himself, and that
combined with his general lack of social skills/ability to talk to people leads to the entire event being a major PR disaster for the team as he produced a major gaffe by dropping the f-bomb loudly into a lapel mic he forgot he was wearing, stunning the entire congregation.

Shadow Walker: Shadow Walker has finally tracked down Midas, his enforcer The Franchise and The Cartel to a warehouse where they are running his father's guns. His recon work complete, he now looks to take action...
 
Perhaps these page by page run-downs could be put on the opening page of the OCC, perhaps in spoiler tags, just to make it a bit more accessible to new/returning players.

I tried, wouldn't let me do it, exceeded the word count for a post.
 
Ah well... thanks for the attempt.
 
Cheers. Anyway, I might just mention that if any of you feel misrepresented or would just prefer to do your own character's rundown for a page or pages feel free to let me know or just do so in here. I have tried to do them all justice in creating the abridged versions of the posts themselves.
 
I'm still in, I've just been busy with some other stuff I've had to do lately
 
it's been alittle quiet lately, but this game has been known to have bouts of slow spells from time to time. I've actually been planning on doing a recruitment drive, I'll get to work on that sometime in the near future. (Not sure exactly when, living in Salem MA, October is a very busy month for me...I always have people I haven't heard from in forever wanting to come visit)...but I'll be doing it sometime soon. Hopefully we can get some new blood in to get things going again.
 
Im working on a post now, been busy lately and havent gotten around to a new one
 
Alright, finished first assignment so I think I've earned some "me time".

I'm going to try and get some posts strung together and maybe even another "run-down" for page 2 of the IC thread.
 
Had a couple posts typed up in MS Word, but they seem to have disappeared from my computer. :huh:

I have a couple essays to write right now, but I'm hoping to have something new up before the end of the week.
 
Recruitment drive thread is up in the approval form. Hopefully we can get some fresh blood into the game, or maybe we'll be able to draw some old friends back in.
 
hey guys, I planned on posting today but I had some company that stayed alittle later than expected. I'll get a post up in the next day or so.

Just saw this. To clarify, the dude he fought--Sebastian Blake aka Leech--is not a demon nor are any of the other 6 people he will encounter demons. They are people naturally being lured towards Michael subtlely by those demons because these 7 people heavily embrace those 7 different sins the most; they were CHOSEN by these demons if that makes more sense.

If there's any changes you'd like to make/suggest I'm sure they could be edited in.
 
I'll try and wrap this arc up tomorrow night... hopefully.
 
Hey guys, I've been feeling alittle under the weather the last few days so I haven't really been in a mindset to post. But I'm going on vacation (I'm not actually going anywhere...so I guess it's a staycation...) Tuesday night...I'll be getting some posts up in the next couple days
