The New Ultimate DC RPG: Sign-Up/OOC Thread

Right, so MB and Byrd - I think you figured this out already, but I've got to hold off on the Larfleeze app for now. Sorry, but I really can't pick him up in all good faith and promise to post at least once a week - and in an arc where I'd probably have to post every day or so, I don't want to hold you guys up. So, for now, I'm stickin with Jason and Barb and hopefully when the semester's over, I can pick up Larfleeze.
 
I may have somewhat of an interest to get back in the GL story. I like it more than I've liked most stories in the RPGs before, and I feel it's the perfect example of what the Ultimate universe can be, in terms of being different but still kick-ass.

If I were to pick someone up, who'd be best?
 
I see my plans to kill you in a volcanic eruption were futile. Dammit!

But, yeah. In case you haven't been following the story, MB is still Hal, Cats is still Rayner, and I picked up Sinestro a few weeks back.

The story hasn't progressed much (At all) since you left. I had it that Hand and the BLs were amassing in Sector 666 and that the GLC was going to make a stand against them, with Sinestro leading a special group of GLC members to act as cavalry in the battle.

If anyone, I'd say pick up Hand to give us a good PC'd villain to fight.
 
Yeah, right now it's up between Larfleeze and Hand. Maybe both. I don't know.

My main problem with Hand would be something to do. Something to have him plan to do, beyond just killing everything. Then again that's the point of the Black Lanterns, kill everything. It's just not the most satisfying motive to write.
 
Well be Larfleeze. :up: I've already set up a mutual dislike between him and Sinestro.
 
i want to reapply for Atrocitus but i dont feel right with Fries not being Freese yet, expect a post sometimes today!

You SOB! :cmad: Just kidding.
 
Apply for him, Sensei!

Apply for him now, while Syn's still looking!

For that: I'm picking up Doctor Hurt and ruining Bats's life. :cmad:

Nah, it's alright, Sensei. If you've got drive - I say go for it. :up:
 
Indeed. I think we need to send out a search party for General Zod.

*shakes fist in Catman's general direction*

**** Zod and his little lackey. The GLC will sodomize them with green *****s if they get too uppity.
 
Finally got a stable connection way out here in the sticks long enough to catch up on IC reading after moving back home. *phew*

Sorry to ask this, Majestic, but can you please edit Mongul out of that fight scene (maybe replace him with other known intergalactic brawler-types, like Massacre or Draaga)? :O

When Maxima mentioned the whole ominous "Mongul is coming, and not even you can beat him, Superman" earlier in the season, I kinda wanted it to be a big deal with much more dramatic buildup to come before the Ultimate version of the yellow lug is revealed, rather than having him offhandedly appear in an unrelated character's flashback. I was also trying to imply that even the knowledge of Mongul's very existence was unheard of in this universe (for good reason, which would become apparent early next season, and why Maxima had to complete her superweapon before Mongul arrived in this dimension/universe/plane of existence, implying that he's not here yet).

I always feel like an assh**e when I ask people to edit a post that's been up for more than a day, and I'm only just now able to read it. But yeah, pretty please?

Anit no thing but a chicken wing. No reason to feel like a ******* not like it was something really important to my story any ways it was only a flashback. Something told me to ask if he was used any way but that i didn't.

.Origin and backstory (as you see it):
[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Zor-El and Allura, survivors of the lost Kryptonian city, Argo. Their home planet had been destroyed and Argo was coming to an end, the peril around them engulfed the whole city, soon destruction was upon them. Zor-El had remembered the device his now deceased brother used to send off their only child to a new life with safety. Quickly building something similar to the device, him and Alura had to say their farewell to their only child, Kara Zor-El. The baby was sent off to Earth, in hope of finding the baby's cousin, Kal-El. Because Zor-El and Allura had programmed the device to a steady landing, Kara's course was changed slightly and she ended up in the streets of Chicago, with no destruction caused. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Fred Danvers and Sylvia Lee-Danvers had recently encountered trouble conceiving. So when a beautiful fair haired baby girl was left on their doorstep one morning, they believed their prayers had been answered. There had been one note left attached to the glowing cloth that was wrapped around the beautiful baby girl. It was in a cryptic type language, that no one could translate. The two took the girl in and adopted her. Naming her Linda Lee Danvers, after Fred's grandmother, Linda started to grow up under the average lifestyle of a girl in Chicago.

Sylvia and Fred had always known Linda wasn't exactly 'average'. Her looks were far too perfect and her build was extraordinary. Never gaining that much weight and being quite tall, Linda grew up to be the popular one in her school. At the age of just fourteen, the Danvers were all held hostage.

Sylvia was six months pregnant at the time and Fred was near his promotion in the Chicago Police Department. Someone Fred had taken down almost a year ago for murder massacres, had escaped from Arkham Asylum and broken into Sylvia, Fred and Linda's apartment. Holding them all by gun point. During the incident, the criminal had shot at Linda, only to discover the bullet had not harmed her. Scared and frightened, the criminal ran off, too late for the police to catch him once Sylvia had called them. From then on, Linda attended tense martial arts classes. After six months, she was soon top of the class, earning her black belt. This was not normal.
[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]After a year of complete paranoia from the hostage situation, Linda finally decided to embrace what had happened and come out of her shell as a new person. Fred and Sylvia showed Linda the note that was left with her the day they found her, admitting that they adopted Linda and Linda is not biologically related to them. As soon as Linda tried to read the cryptic message, she would have constant flash backs, vivid and blurry mirages of a young looking couple, fearing for their lives as explosions surrounded them. Screams of horror and a language Linda could finally understand. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]After a few vivid dreams of a weird mirages, Linda could finally understand what the note had said.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]"Kara Zor-El of Krypton, our precious chid. If you want to know your true origins, origins that do not belong to the third rock from the sun, find Kal-El, as he is the only one that can tell you of your Kryptonian qualities. We shall forever be with you. - Allura In-Zee and Zor-El."[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]The underneath, a large symbol - translating to Hope. Not fully understanding the message, Linda at first ignored the riddles. As she lived on knowing that she was not indeed earth-born, she could add up all the clues about her lives. Why the bullet did not affect her, why she is more beautiful than the rest and taller, why she has excellent martial arts talents. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]After Sylvia had given birth to a baby girl named Edna Danvers, Linda decided it was time she became this new up-front girl persona full-on. She became much more happier in life as she grew, discovering various abilities. But she knew deep down, beneath the happiness she could spend with her family, that she was still left clueless to her real past. Fred and Sylvia swore never to tell anyone about Linda and who she really is, as Linda feared that it was not time to be a new minority in America just yet.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]But now, residing in Keystone City at the age of 17, Linda has found traces of the hero 'Superman' that have lead her to believe he is indeed the one and only 'Kal-El'. Taking up the persona Supergirl, to attract the attention of Superman himself, she set out and became a teen heroine of Keystone City. Now, where superheroes are not fully accepted, Linda finds it hard to get close to Superman, whereas - if she did, her past would be revealed.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]
.The burning question - Why this character?: I've always loved Supergirl and introducing her into the UDC would be great, as she was always known was Superman's cousin in the DC universe.

.How will this version of your character differ from others? How will it be Ultimate?: This version will not fully know her true relations to Superman, this will then allow the character to become a heroine of her own in the meantime. Also, she is not fully aware of her real past, which gives her more of an edge.

.What do you believe you can bring to the RPG?: Someone who is always up for interaction and always posts within a week.

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif].Provide a sample post as the character you wish to portray, in three paragraphs or more:[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]"Officer Maggie Sawyer of the M.P.D, I work with ya dad kid."[/FONT]

r05u3b.jpg


[FONT=Trebuchet MS, sans-serif]"I know who you are, Maggie. You know who I am....So has Dad sent you here to take my home via you escorting me?"[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]"You're not meant to be in Metropolis, Linda, you're meant to be in School."[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Throwing in a gentle chuckle, Linda Lee Danvers carried on walking along the busy streets of Metropolis, Maggie hot on her tail. She quickly swiped her hand around Linda's arm, pulling her back.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]"Linda...your dad...he's...missing."[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Her eyes widening, Linda stopped frozen. How could she let this happen, after all Fred had done for her. Are Sylvia and Edna O.K? Why is Maggie telling her this? Why did Maggie track me down to Metropolis just to tell her that message? All these questions bounced around in Linda's head like a trapped bee.[/FONT]

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, sans-serif]"You're a cop, why don't you find him?"[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Maggie slowly slid on her dark sunglasses, she pursued her lips and sighed slightly. A car slowly pulled up beside the two and Maggie opened the back passenger seat.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]"Not here."[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Linda quickly scanned the inside of the, black, slick car. She had to make a decision. [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Entering the car, Linda carefully placed herself in the elongated black passenger seat, that was in the back of the car. Shutting the door next to her, Maggie slid into the car from Linda's left. The car then pulled away from the curb and slowly started to drive away. Linda could tell the windows were blacked out, so no one could see her in the inside. Then, slowly, a black screen slowly [/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]"Linda, your dad told me what you are...who you really are."[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Rage and confusion swept across Linda's face. [FONT=Trebuchet MS, sans-serif]"What!? Why? Why would he do that? How can he tell if I don't even know [/FONT][FONT=Trebuchet MS, sans-serif]myslef[/FONT][FONT=Trebuchet MS, sans-serif] who I am!"[/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]"You know what I mean."[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Linda clutched her chest, betrayal had soon turned to pain. This was all a big mixture of emotions, clustered together and thrown at her in the space of a couple of minutes.[/FONT]

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, sans-serif]"I'm sorry...I have to go...I have to go..."[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Linda grabbed the car door handle, tears swelling up in her eyes. She struggled to open the car door, but Maggie soon managed to calm her down by grabbing her by the shoulders and making her sit still.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]"Do you want Fred to die, kid!?"[/FONT]

Shaking her head, Linda wiped away her small tears gently. She looked up at Maggie as the car pulled over to a, large, damp gray building, with shattered glass windows. Maggie carefully arched her head upwards, her eyebrows raised ever so slightly too.

"...Where do I go from here?"


[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif].Do you know how to post pictures on the Hype?: [/FONT]

I like that app a lot, although age 10 is a little too early for a Kryptonian to develop bullet proof skin in this continuity. Can you make it so that she was shot at at the age of 14 or 15, if you're going for as young as possible?

I also like the hints of Kryptonians naturally having a higher capacity for learning stuff, like martial arts. :up:
 
So, Supergirl operates out of Keystone City instead of Metropolis?
 
Guess so. I didn't have a problem with the change. You?
 
If he does, they can work it out.

J'adore is approved for Supergirl.

Done.

And she's only going to Operate in Keystone City for the time being.
