The "Ultimate DC Universe" RPG, Season 2.0: Signup/OOC Thread

Plunkett and Mclain? Only the single best highway man film ever. Has Liv Tyler in a corset too!

 

[Eddie Brock]

I'm British and I've never even heard of it...

YOU'RE BRITISH?!

*shunned*

 

[trustyside-kick]

Debating about Ultimizing Brother Blood...but a few reasons are stopping me from working on an app:

- Cannot think of a real arc to do, just a cool/creative/interesting way to make him ultimitized.
- Do not want to take up too many characters. I'm not in every RPG in existence, but I do not want to lag behind in the other ones too much.

Any advice? Anyone wanna go toe to toe against a villain like him? If you got a big arc you can think of with his interaction, lemme know.

Anyone else aside from Catman_prd? Wanna see all the options.

Hey, how do you think that makes me feel? I have feelings you know!

 

[SenseiofCheese]

I think it would be a great idea. You're obviously a very good RP'er, and BB would be in good hands.
I would be very interested in Hawkman being part of that arc when (when instead of "if" ) you get there.

Pick him up.
Do it.
Do it.
Do it.

 

[Batman]

I say do it. It'd be great to have another villain in the RPG, and you're doing an awesome job with Despero. I can't really offer any of my characters for an arc at this time, but still, I'd be interested in reading your take on the character.

 

[Apprentice]

YOU'RE BRITISH?!

*shunned*

Hey, show some respect You do talk our language, after all

 

[MST3K 4ever]

Hey Gang I am going to be out of town until Monday so I will talk to you all when I get back...and I hope that I will have a new Atom post ready to go. Gotham has been kind of quiet lately I have a feeling that won't last long.

 

[Green Lantern]

Anyone else aside from Catman_prd? Wanna see all the options.

I'm a bit partial to him... I'm beginning a run as him in OU Go for it, I'd like to see your take on the bastard.

 

[Saved]

GL, not to be a pain in the ass or a nag...but its been over a week here for Roy.

Andy, did you actually have plans for the Parasite, as I saw him in your Legion of Doom pic of the MicroHeroes?

Screenname: Oh Snap!

Character You Would Like To Play: Amazo "The Amazing Android"

Basic History Of The Character: Not much is known about the past of Amazo, other than his mission: He was sent from the future to stop the heroes of this new age banding together, by any means necessary. To do so he has been equipped with the powers of several of them (eg Superman's strength & Heat-vision, Flash's speed, Wonder Woman's fighting skills, Batman's intelligence), he also has the ability to adapt and absorb other powers. He is unstoppable, the only flaw in his programming being the few residual fragments of his persona.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. Amazo's a cool character I think, he has so much power and is so ruthless, I think it's quite awesome.

2. He's a very flawed character, at his core he is evil and quite selfish, his whole mission revolves around preserving himself; but at the same time, he has alot of inner conflict because he doesn't enjoy what he's doing nor would he do it if he had the choice, but it's what he was programmed to do.

3. I've yet to play a character where I can totally cut loose and kill random people in the streets without remorse, now I do.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person (IE: How are you 'utlimizing' him or her?): Delving into the history of the character and actually trying to make you feel sympathy for why he's doing the things that he's doing, because (I don't want to give it away prematurely) but not everything is as it seems.

Two Complete Sentences In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): I would like to think that I can bring some good story-lines and some tension. Oh, and another villain, you can never have too many new villains.

What Fonts Do You Plan To Use For Your Character’s Speech? (Makes the roster look better): Bold Itallic Dark Green Georgia 2

Please Provide A Small Sample Post In The Format You Wish To Portray Your Character In:

Far above the city of New York, explosions light the sky, the moon has long been destryoed and the star's have long burnt out. Several figures fly through the sky, some with capes, others illuminating the area around them with a calming green light, they were at war; one that had caused one casualty too many for the proffesor whom far below them, was working on his final masterpiece. He pressed several buttons and a chamber opened, a large muscular figure with pink hair stepped out of it and it's voice boomed loudly at the man.

"How do I still live?"

"I saved you, just like I told you I would.."

"My voice.."

"Yes, it's changed, alot has changed since you last saw me.. for the better, I hope"

"What have you done?"

"I have granted you life"

The android looked in the mirror, his body had changed in a way he could have never imagined meer days ago; his muscles buldged, his once blonde locks were now pink and receded. He could feel the very cogs and metal inside him moving around him, he was more robot than man now, he was a monster.

"At what cost?"

"I.. I.. you must be sent back in time, for if you continued to exist in this time they would undoubtedly destroy you"

"I do not understand"

"You will with time.."

"I still draw breath, why? What is my purpose?"

The old man, better known as 'Proffesor Ivo' several centuries ago, put his hand on the large android's shoulder and said with the utmost ferocity, making it very clear to the being that there was nothing more important to him than this, this was his objective, his purpose for living; without it, he would be meaningless, his very existence futile.

"Your purpose is to kill those.. those whom the people of Earth call 'Superheroes'.. Promise me you will do this"

"I will.."

"You must not stop until they have been irradicated, it is of the highest importance"

"I understand.. I will not fail you, nor will I rest until I have killed every last one, I will not stop until my very last breath"

"You don't breath anymore, Amazo"

"Amazo?"

"Yes, that is your name"

Ivo saw high above through the window a large caped figure swoop round, he was accelerating at an insane speed, he was coming right for them, he couldn't allow his creation to be found, they would destroy him. The once dubbed 'heroes' had gone greedy with power, now they had become everything they once stood against, the world was ruled with an iron fist.. super-fascism.

"No.. My name is.."

"They come!.. You have to go, leave.. Quickly and God speed!"

He urged the large robotic man through the portal, which he jumped through reluctantly, once he was in Ivo picked up a large spanner and smashed the control panels.. the door to his lab torn off, infront of him stood a ruthless looking man whom once was the idol of millions, the large S shield on his chest covered in blood. As his creation flew through time, the last thing he could hear was the screams of his creator, Ivo had sacrificed his life for him, he wouldn't let him down.

And by the way, I'm on the roster as Captain Atom whom i'm not currently playing (I dropped him after finding out he had already been established) I'm totally making up for it now though.

Damn. Nice choice.

 

[Andy C.]

Andy, did you actually have plans for the Parasite, as I saw him in your Legion of Doom pic of the MicroHeroes?

Not really. I was going to maybe use him as an NPC for a much bigger arc with Lex Luthor, but that's only if no one else wants to play as him.

 

[Spike_x1]

I have a couple ideas for an intro arc for him, akin to Neutron's story earlier. Was his origin going to play heavily into your plans for him? 'Cuz if not, I could set his character up in the UDCU, and then you could do what you like with him from there.

 

[trustyside-kick]

I cannot believe I overlooked Amazo. Well played, Oh Snap!. Well played.

 

[SenseiofCheese]

Cool to see Amazo be picked up. I'm a sucker for character that haven't been played much before.

 

[Spike_x1]

Okay, so is this Amazo like the comic book version, with a pre-programed set of powers, and just able to alter that programming to take on more abilities; or is he like the cartoon version where he could just look at people and copy their powers?

The former.

 

[Saved]

I like the cartoon version, personally. Awsome episode.

 

[SenseiofCheese]

That, and The Return episode, when Amazo came back all golden and s***.
That was the awesomness.

 

[Saved]

Never saw that one.

 

[Blacklight]

Never saw that one.

I just saw it the other night.

 

[Saved]

Well I plan on getting the DVDs, so its only a matter of time.
