[Kaboom]

I don't like killing anouther member of the big three (Clark, Bruce and Diana.)

But I like the ideas of Donna being in jail and Diana as a Queen, Nice thinking Kaboom.

we could say after the events of amazons attack, hyppolyta was killed and Diana became Queen. Her vehement protection of her people meant she did not fight againt Darkseid choosing instead to stay at themyscria. which allowed darkseid to advance far more than he otherwise would have.

donna fought against darkseid and chose to become the new wonder woman, continuing hero work after it was outlawed. obv the government didnt like this and had her arrested. before she left she left the wonder woman armor with cassie who was not allowed to wear it until she comes of age.

Or, you know, we could say Amazons Attack didn't happen. Because, you know, it sucks ass.

Taking Harl's advice into account, here's the new idea I've got. I'm going to leave placeholders for new characters and we'll come up with them later. I'll also leave the Pawns out for right now:

Black King: New Character
Black Queen: Vera Black
Black King's Bishop: Ulysses Hadrian Armstrong
Black Queen's Bishop: Manitou Dawn
Black King's Rook: Rudy Jones
Black Queen's Rook: New Character
Black King's Knight: New Character
Black Queen's Knight: Cassandra Cain


White King: Garfield Logan
White Queen: Cassandra Sandsmark
White King's Bishop: Victor Stone
White Queen's Bishop: New Character
White King's Rook: New Character
White Queen's Rook: New Character
White King's Knight: New Character
White Queen's Knight: Cissie King-Jones

What about Vandal Savage? He's always been one to go after a position of power, and I could see him worming his way into being the Black King under an alias, or what not.

Very good idea. I decided not to use him simply because he wouldn't like being someone else's lackey. But then, he could always just use the possition to gain greater power down the line.

Well, I got bored again. And just like before, with the DC RPG, I made a customized .gif of how I pictured Owen to be (but not until he takes up the mantle):

Also, just like the DC RPG...I'll take up offers to anyone who wants me to do the same for their newly created characters in this RPG. Just give me a detailed description and such of how you want them to look and I'll try my best.

 

[Spike_x1]

I think might be joining this sometime in the future, but for now I'll just be reading what you guys are coming up with.

Oh, BTW, Bizarro's name am not spelled right off roster. Hello!

 

[Johnny Blaze]

Shouldn't the Riddler be put under Heroes instead of Villains?

 

[Charlie No-One]

MB, did you get my PM?

 

[MST3K 4ever]

DC: New Age Volume 1 Application

Screen Name: MST3K 4ever
Character you would like to play: Lex Luthor

Powers: Human...however he is the President of the United States & a multi-billionare

Hero/Villain: Villian

Identity (Public/Secret?):

Origin (If not a new character, a recap of events leading to how your character got to what they are today): After years & years of work Luthor managed to get the constitution amended so he can serve more than 2 terms in office. He was elected because not only did he help cure cancer & aids (to which Lexcorp got a huge profit boost from the vaccines), economic growth, peace in the Middle-East (through back-stabbing & black-mailing other World-leaders), but his Anti-Vilglante-Alliance saw the erradication of many super-heroes & villians which skyrocketed his popularity (through media-manipulation and blackmailing congress). As many in the world began to see super-heroes as a threat.

Personality:
He is a cross between 3 people: 1) Don Corelone from "The Godfather", 2) Khan from "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Kahn" and 2) Col. Jessup from "A Few Good men"...put all 3 of these men together and you got Lex.


Three reasons why you have chosen that character:

1) He is a classic villain

2) I have been playing Lex for years I know this character well.

3) He makes Superman just go nuts

Write two complete sentences using proper English grammar explaining what you plan to do with the character you've chosen (i.e. What are your goals? Will you be doing anything different with the character than is usually seen?):
1) Lex is now just power-mad and he will do whatever he has to protect his power.
2) He is also getting old so periodically he will have signs of declining health.

How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: As often as I can

Color and font you plan on using for your characters speech: Century Gothic just like the one in the other DC game


How did you find out about this game, Recruitment thread/word of post/seeing the RPG OOC/IC thread? : Saw in the application thread and thoght it had some serious possibilites.

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 one line of dialogue):

Luthor limps into a darkened interrogation room using a rolling-walker after his recent back-surgery. He looks down on a table and sees The Atom strapped to the table.

Lex picks up a folder and says, "The Atom a-k-a Professor Ryan Chang, you have been charged with violations 2,6,8 & 10 of the Anti-Vigliante-Aliance statutes. You are also a man who could be of great service to me and if you serve me I can have your sentence commuted. Or if you provide me with information about some of your former comrades. What is your response to that?"

The Atom says, "Go to hell Lex. I will never serve you or give you any information."

Lex says, "Come now Professor, you can't tell me you really like living in a box on Doctor Miller's desk. You help me and I can possibly get you your own quarters say in Barbie's dream house." He chuckles at that statement.

The Atom says, "No deal Lex. If this is all you got me out for you can put me right back where you found me."

Lex says, "Very well. Oh did I forget to mention that vilolating the Anti-Viglante-Aliance is now a capital offense. So with that in mind I..." he pulls out a gavel and says, "do hereby carry out the sentence of death."

Lex slams the gavel 5 times over The Atom until he is nothing more than a bloody spot on the table.

He says, "Sentence carried out."

Lex dumps the body into the trash can.

As he leaves he tells the guards, "Tell Warden Smithers to issue a statement that another threat to the American Way has been dealt with."

The guards nod as he leaves.

 

[Karem-Knight]

Approved.

 

[Karem-Knight]

Ok just a heads up, the 20th aniverserary of D-Day is coming up, So remember to add that to your posts.

 

[The Question]

Karem? Why exactly is Clark calling Martha "Mum?" He usually calls his parents "Ma and Pa," or "Mom and Dad."

Sorry British spelling.

 

[Johnny Blaze]

You can put Katana and The Trickster (James Jesse) on the dead list.

[Karem-Knight]

[Karem-Knight]

Good post Kaboom and Keyser, But Kaboom, Is it ok if we slow down the pacing of the Clark and Christopher meeting I was hoping more or so a day after Clark's re-apperance as Superman, Other then that good job.

 

[Cyrusbales]

Is Mr Fries prison now in space?

[Keyser Soze]

Oop, I'm sorry, I must have misread. I thought it was a space prison you were operating?

And thank you very mych! I'm loving what you've done with Freeze so far! t:

 

[Cyrusbales]

I was thinking space is ok, but to be honest I envisioned it on the outskirts of a city/an island etc.

otherwise he'll be too isolated and i'll be solo-ing it all the time, you can edit your post accordingly or not, your call.

Your riddler plan was what made me choose a bat villain....
