Perhaps we should allow second characters? It would boost up activity, if anything.
Damn right it is. Now get a Dent post in.
I'm not feelin' the face now I'm Dent over in WSS. I can vent all my Dent-yness on there.
DC: New Age Volume 1 Application
Screen Name: Byrd Man
Character you would like to play: Chris Kent/Power-Man
Powers: Flight, super strength, super speed, super hearing, super breath, heat vision, microscopic vision, and x-ray vision.
Hero/Villain: Hero
Identity (Public/Secret?): Secret
Origin (If not a new character, a recap of events leading to how your character got to what they are today):
The son of General Zod and Ursa, Lor-Zod was adopted by Clark Kent and Lois Lane-Kent and took on the name Chris Kent. After Lois' death and Clark's self-imposed exlie, Chris went to Smallville to live with Ma Kent. Karen Starr (AKA Kara Zor-L and Power-Woman) helped him learn of his new powers and Kryptonian heritage. Now a fresh-faced graduate and a new reporter at the Daily Star, Chris finds that Metropolis needs a hero.
Personality: Living with the Kents all these years, Chris has picked up many of their traits. While he's as much a goofy farm boy as his adopted father, he's also got the intuition and reporting skills of Lois. Round all that out with a strong set or morals that Clark, Lois, and Ma Kent instilled in him and you have Christopher Kent.
Three reasons why you have chosen that character:
1) I'm a fan of the Superman mythos. And since Supes is taken and Superboy is dead, I'll try playing this version.
2) Given his relative young age, I can start his career from the ground up.
3) I want to bring my take to the Superman legacy twenty years after where Superman is today.
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?): I just want to get Chris' feet wet and get him working in Metropolis. I also want to help Karem show how much the Superman legacy has changed these past decades.
How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG:
Color and font you plan on using for your characters speech: Tahoma and blue for Chris Bold it for Power-Man
Do you have an Instant Messenger? Which one, and what is your screen name? [email protected]
How did you find out about this game, Recruitment thread/word of post/seeing the RPG OOC/IC thread? I seen the original RPG app.
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):
Metropolis
"Pardon me, excuse me."
I stumble slightly as I walk down the sidewalk. Someone in a car passes by and hits a mudpuddle, the puddle splashes all over my leg and ruins my khakis.
"Dang it!"
I sigh as I continue my walk down the sidewalk. The khakis are an important part of my look, accompanied by my baggy shirt and faux glasses, it's what disguises me from my alter ego. It's my first week in Metropolis since Clark left. I've been in the suit a few times, but not long enough for people to get my picture. They know Metropolis has a new protector, but they don't know who it is.
BOOM!
I hear an explosion off in the distance. While everyone starts to scream and run away from something, I slightly smile as I run down an alleyway. Throwing my glasses aside, I tear off my shirt and reveal the blue costume underneath.
"Time for Chris Kent to get back While Power-Man goes to work."
