The "Ultimate DC Universe" RPG, Season 3.0: Sign-Up/OOC Thread

[Eddie Brock]

I'll post as Grayson soon. Not that it matters, anyway. Now that MB has Batman in DC, he's going to forget all about us.

 

[Batman]

Pfft. I may have added another Caped Crusader to my character roster, but I'm still the power hungry, character-grabbing, mythos controlling mogul I was the very day I made this RPG.

 

[Johnny Blaze]

Andy, you want Supes, J'onn, and Hal to head to help Diana so she can join the gang?

Would be easy to edit out the Flash and replace it with WW.

 

[Andy C.]

Maybe in a bit. I'd like to get in a few rounds with Warrior Woman before that--WW hasn't done a whole lot so far this season, so I'd like to let her show off a little bit before needing the rest of the gang.

Well, I'll edit it in then, as it will probably take a bit for us to get to you anyway. Least this way we can be on our way and, when you give the go-ahead, we can arrive on scene.



So...what city is Diana in currently?

So...Andy. What city is Wonder Woman currently in?

 

[Batman]

A couple of things:

I'm in the process of trying to write up a summary of the history of the UDCU, for the front page. Everything essential before the game's timeline is figured out, but it's going to take alot of time to recap alot of the major beats from Seasons I and II, and probably twice that in simplifying it all. That's where I wouldn't mind some help. Any volunteers would be greatly appreciated.

I may also add a dead list and/or a character guide, for characters unretconned, linking to their first IC-post appearances or applications. The dead list wouldn't be very big at first, but I'm sure it could be useful in future seasons. The character guide, of course, would be more of a tool for people looking to see what's been done with a certain character, and how they've been ultimized.

 

[Batman]

After getting rid of the 'Season 2.0 returns' list, as that's pretty irrelevant now, I've added the Characters' Guide to the second post of this thread: http://forums.superherohype.com/showpost.php?p=13988687&postcount=2

The list is still being updated with links to their first canonical IC-posts, but I thought I'd get it up anyway. Every character and every post on that list is in-continuity, so if you remember an earlier poster playing a certain character, that could be because their work was retconned. I'm also getting an NPC list up for it, for characters like Captain Cold and Connor Hawke - people who could be playable, but were introduced as NPC's and have never been actually played.

Characters currently being played will not be added until dropped. Characters picked up are subject to be removed. If I've missed a character so far, tell me, so I can add them. Unless you've played Aquaman before trusty, in which case your work isn't canonical.

Dead List is coming soon. History of the UDCU will come by next week, with any luck.

 

[Spike_x1]

Nice.

 

[Jono Starsmore]

What's going on with Two-Face. MB, you still playing him?

 

[Batman]

Yes.

 

[Jono Starsmore]

Well I was thinking about either picking up him (which failed), or Scarecrow...

 

[Catman_prb]

Scarecrow got shot. A lot. Now he's going to prison for a long time.

 

[Johnny Blaze]

Scarecrow got shot. A lot. Now he's going to prison for a long time.

Welll...once he gets out of the hospital he will.

 

[Batman]

Well, technically Scarecrow got shot under the influence of Creeper's reality warping powers. That's why I had him stand back up, virtually unharmed. His shooting was part of Creeper's illusion.

 

[Catman_prb]

...No...it was the Creeper screwing with Black Mask's head and making him shoot Scarecrow by accident. Naturally, he cried himself to sleep afterwards, but that's a different story.

 

[Batman]

Oh.

Well, he could have been hopped up on his own drugs, so it'd still take awhile for him to feel the gunshot(s).

Dang, that's going to be one hell of a morning.

 

[Catman_prb]

Hey, he can plead temporary insanity. Or prolonged insanity.

 

[Batman]

Well, he has creditentials at Arkham. Maybe he could just blame exposure to the patients for turning him coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs. Hell, while you're at it, he could even implicate someone else as to being The Scarecrow. He's capable of doing something that ****ed up and getting away with it.

 

[Johnny Blaze]

Hey, he can plead temporary insanity. Or prolonged insanity.

Hmmm...yeah, if you're insane, you're still not getting up fromthat and walking around. Now, if he was all coked up, or on some opium, or meth...then he'd be getting up and starting some ****.

 

[Batman]

Now, if he was all coked up, or on some opium, or meth...then he'd be getting up and starting some ****.

It wouldn't be hard to say there are traces of opium and meth within the toxin, to weaken the nervous system (no pun intended). Maybe all of that testing got some of those substances into Crane's system.

That's plausible. So maybe I could have him in the hospital for a while, and then have a "friend" break him outta' there.



... I'm actually clueless as to what I should do.

 

[Johnny Blaze]

It'd have to be alot more than traces. For him to get shot like he did and all the blood loss, it'd have to be a ****load of one of those drugs.

 

[Eddie Brock]

The guy dresses up in a burlap sack and induces sheer panic into people with a simple toxin, and we're worried about the reality of him being able to keep going despite being shot. I love logic.

Ah, ah, ah...selective logic.
