Dude...no offense, but that sample sucks. You're going to need more than that. Not to mention that your character needs a font to speak in.

 

[Cyrusbales]

this is a new marvel, you start it how you want it to!

 

[Charlie No-One]

I say no to a hacker and you need a larger sample post Bonus.

Dude, thats not a sample post. A sample post is 3 paragraphs with one line of speech at least. Fix it.

Plus, you're an rper on here. Well known, and highly involved. We are lenient on fellow RPers. New comers must meet minimum.

I know, I was just being facetious.

 

[Bonusball75]

Ok I've done a new sample post. If there are any more suggestions or if I need more I will happily change it. I didn't realize(while it should have) I would need a little more extensive body of work if I'm going to write. As you know I am new to this site and how everything works here.

Character You Would Like To Play: The Juggernaut

Powers: Completely impervious to any physical harm. Immense levels of strength. Once gaining momentum, he is virtually unstoppable. He has no need for air, water food etc and is indefinitely sustainable without any form of sustenance, the power of the gem provides this all. A helmet which provides protection from mental/telepathic attacks.

Basic History Of The Character (Up until this point): Mistreated as a child by his father after his mother‘s death, he ran away from home at a young age. Eventually he joined the army years later. Peacekeeping in Korea, he discovered a hidden underground temple, upon investigating he discovered the Gem of Cyttorak, once touched, he found himself infused with tremendous power, encasing him in the bands of Cyttorak, a powerful armour, however this triggered a collapse in the temple, burying him under many tons of rubble, assumed dead, he steadily burrowed his way out, learning his new found abilities and gaining strength in them. Also becoming aware of the demon Cyttorak who constantly whispered in his ear, telling him about his destiny to serve him as the exemplar of his power. He was now the juggernaut, eventually breaking free, he found himself unable to remove the bands and the power, now being locked within a prison of power and armour, a freak. Looking out to the world from the rubble, he did not know how much time had passed, but it was most assuredly years. Turning his back on the voice of the demon which had been his only company for so long, he is not concerned with his ‘destiny’, just to see what remained of his life.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. A brand new take on a classic villain, giving him more depth.

2. A decent villain who can match up to the most powerful heroes to bring balance to the force…

3. I’ve always wanted to play Juggernaut, but there hasn’t been an RPG where I can play a version like I want to, Juggs a mutant, wtf???

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person (IE: How are you changing him or her?): See the origin, I've removed his tie from Xavier(for now ) and made him more of his own character. He is not a villain as of yet either.

Two Complete Sentences In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): Experienced RPG’ing from a reliable player, who rarely drops characters and is consistant, striving to work together with others.

What Fonts Do You Plan To Use For Your Character’s Speech? (Makes the roster look better): THE JUGGERNAUT (Fixedsys bold, brown)

Please Provide A Small Sample Post In The Format You Wish To Portray Your Character In: Will do tomorrow probably.

Do You Know How To Post Pictures On The Hype?:
Yes.

 

[Cyrusbales]

OK, just posting the juggs app, so you can at least get an idea of what i'm doing etc, will do the sample tomorrow

Character You Would Like To Play: Hawkeye (Clint Barton)

Powers: None,Ronin is a world-class archer and marksman. His above average reflexes and hand-eye-coordination make him the most proficient archer ever known

Basic History Of The Character (Up until this point): Spent years on avengers, after the house of M he was thought dead. Recently he is back under the name Ronin with the New Avengers9(running from Mighty Avengers and registration)

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. I played as Hawkeye in a Civil War Rpg last summer.

2. One of my favorite marvel charecters.

3. I really like playing as the guy, plus I like purple...

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person (IE: How are you changing him or her?): Won't be much change just no connection with the Avengers, maybe a few tweeks but no super powers popping up.

Two Complete Sentences In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): I spent last summer doing a Civil War rpg till it died. I think I can bring an intriguing character to the table.

What Fonts Do You Plan To Use For Your Character’s Speech? (Makes the roster look better): Mostly just make all the spoken text in purple font color.

Please Provide A Small Sample Post In The Format You Wish To Portray Your Character In: "Dammit!" Clint Barton thought. Clint had just made a foolish mistake. He had underestimated the security of the jewelry store he was in the procces of robbing. With the alarm blaring and the sound of approaching cop cars, Clint burst through the door with all the quickness and speed he possesed. The young man qickly bounded down an ally onto a dumpster and with a tremendous leap grabbed the gutter of a low building. He hoisted himself up and slowed down as he prowled the roof. 'What kind of dumb move was that.' he berated himself. Clint moved to rooftop to rooftop before finally dropping to the streets below.

Freeze! Stop were you are.

With a look back he saw two cops running toward him through the ally. Shouldn't you guys be eating donuts somewhere? he teased. With one fluid motion, Clint took a running start toward the officers, he leaped over the stunned cops and continued running from the police. Eventually Clint was sure he had lost the cops and started on his was back to his apartment to asses the nights hall. Barton was not the type to hurt someone who hadn't provoked him severly but, he delt in deeds such as this which were frowned upon but most society. Clint pictured himself as a modern day Robin Hood, but with some small and glaring diffrences



Do You Know How To Post Pictures On The Hype?: Not yet but I'll figure it out.

there are NO avengers yet.

 

[Bonusball75]

He isn't an avenger. He is just Hawkeye. It says your Cap in you sig so, please clarify?

 

[Matt Murdock]

The Avengers do not exist yet. The have not been formed. This is player created continuity.

 

[Matt Murdock]

Basic History Of The Character (Up until this point): Spent years on avengers, after the house of M he was thought dead. Recently he is back under the name Ronin with the New Avengers9(running from Mighty Avengers and registration)

Avengers, House of M, and New Avengers do not exist.

 

[Bonusball75]

I've got you. I put that there under the assumption you wanted background info from the marvel universe. I didn't think it meant a history I fabricated.

 

[Saved]

And make sure dialogue has quotations and inner dialogue doesn't.

 

[Bonusball75]

Ok, will do. Anything else?

'DAWN OF MARVELS' RPG Application

Screenname: Eddie Brock Jr.

Character You Would Like To Play: Piotr Rasputin / Colossus

Powers: Piotr can transform his entire body into an organic steel alloy. On top of this, he has superhuman strength that seemingly has no limit. When in his transformed state, Colossus is impervious to almost every kind of physical harm.

Basic History Of The Character (Up until this point): Piotr Rasputin grew up on a farm with his family. His sister, Illyana, was diagnosed with leukemia. Some time later, a scout saw Piotr playing hockey. He offered Piotr a contract to play in the Russian Super League. Piotr became an instant star, but he never forgot his family. Piotr sent most of the money he earned back home to pay for his sister's medical bills. One day, Piotr's powers manifested. Until now, his coach has managed to keep the powers a secret...

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. He's my 2nd favorite X-Man, behind Wolverine.

2. We have a strong concentration of X-Men in this RPG, and I want to get in on that ASAP.

3. Making Piotr a celebrity prior to becoming an X-Man could be fun.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person (IE: How are you changing him or her?): He would be known around the world as Russia's hockey prodigy. Therefore, when news gets out that he's a mutant, it'll cause an uproar among the sports community.

Two Complete Sentences In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): I like being a catalyst for change. In all RPGs (and especially this one), there's leeway to do original things with your character. I love to take advantage of that. Tweaking origins and backstories is one of the most fun things to do as a player.

What Fonts Do You Plan To Use For Your Character’s Speech? (Makes the roster look better): Grey Arial Black

Do You Know How To Post Pictures On The Hype?:

SAMPLE POST

I lace up and I can hear the crowd roaring. It's time. I skate out onto the ice as I am met with thunderous applause. Up in the press box, the commentators are talking about me.

<"And here comes Piotr Rasputin! Boy, is this kid talented or what?">

<"Oh, absolutely. He's a prodigy. Piotr is only 17, and he's already playing in the Russian Super League. And I heard he's been selected for Russia's Olympic ice hockey team!">

<"You are absolutely correct. Piotr will be representing the Soviet Union in the next Winter Olympic games. And the crowd here loves him!">

<"And with good reason! Rasputin hits harder than any player I've ever seen!">

<"That's for sure! And I tell you what...anyone who's ever interviewed him knows that he is truly a gentle giant. He even admits that he doesn't particularly LIKE checking people!">

I smile for the cameras. I know that I didn't get in this for the fame, but it's hard not to enjoy it. I see the referee skate over to center ice, and I recognize that the time for smiling is over.

***

I'm the last one in the locker room, as usual. That's when the coach comes in. I know exactly why he's here.

<"You played well, kid,"> he begins. I force a smile before his next statement comes out. <"So...no outbreaks when you were out there?">


<"For the 1000th time, I can control it,"> I assure him. <"And furthermore, I don't like calling them 'outbreaks.' It makes it sound like a disease or something.">

I can see the anger on his face. He doesn't like when I talk back to him. <"Well, if it's not a disease, then what is it?"> he snaps. Before I can answer, he adds, <"I'll tell you what! You're a freak! And I swear to God, if you weren't so damn good at hockey, I'd throw you out on the street with the rest of the freaks.">

I instantly stand up, outraged at his blunt rudeness. I clench my fists and he recognizes my anger.

<"What're you going to do? Hit me? Go ahead. You lay a single finger on me, I'll have you thrown off this team so fast your head will spin! And where will you get the money for your sick sister then, huh?">

The rage bubbles inside me, but I know that I cannot strike him. This is my situation and I must deal with it. Therefore, I sit back down and continue to get changed.

On his way out, the coach adds, <"You better watch yourself, boy.">

Made a couple more revisions. Hopefully this will suffice so I can be accepted.

 

[Eddie Brock]

Saweet! Now I'm just waiting for Marko's response PM and I'm good to go with Johnny...

 

[Blacklight]

So Nay for Hacking (computers)?

I want Wolverine to have some kind of skill he doesn't have in any continiuty. Any suggestions? I need it for my next post.

 

[Saved]

Why does he have to have a new skill? Wolverine is amazing as is. No need to alter him. But if you must, I suggest he used to box or kick box back in the day.

Yeah. He could be a silver-glove boxer from his army days.

Seriously. Does Wolverine REALLY NEED to be more badass?
