The 'WHAT IF? Marvel' RPG - SIgn up thread

[Matt Murdock]

WHAT IF'S:

​

The crucial element to the game: each character who is applied for comes with one of these doo-dads.

​

-XAVIER and MAGNETO's roles are reversed, ie: XAVIER is against humanity, Magneto wishes to save it.

-PETER PARKER never rid himself of the symbiote, being consumed by it.

-DAREDEVIL killed the Kingpin and took up his position as the crime lord.

-RICK JONES is the HULK, and has almost total control.

-WOLVERINE is stilll under the control of Weapon X.

-Only SANDMAN'S childish side remains from the split.

-BEAST never suffered his further mutation

-VULCAN grew up with his brothers, and is now on MAGNETO'S side.

-MR. IMMORTAL joined the avengers after growing up in New York.

-The Phoenix force inhabited ROGUE instead, and she ended up joining MAGNETO'S brotherhood of mutants.

-GAMBIT never gained control of his powers and they corrupted him.

-NORMAN OSBORN never went insane, and became the HOBGOBLIN instead.

-BIG BERTHA was self centered until her rejection from society, where she was take in by the brotherhood.

-GHOST RIDER was saved from his deal with Zarathos and bonded with Yeshua and Azrael to become the spirit of redemption and execution.

-TONY STARK made ironmen for the government, whilst keeping the ultimate upgrades for himself.

-When FRANK CASTLE'S family was exectued, he was shot and suffered brain damage which fractured his psyche and distorted his memory and mind.

-ADRIAN TOOMES was a police officer, forced into retirement, upon BLACKI DRAGO'S death, he took his equipment to become the VULTURE and continue fighting crime.

-JEAN GREY was abducted by the Shi'ar as they thought she possesed the phoenix force. However learning she didn't, she was sent to earth to retrieve the one with the phoenix force.

-DOC OCK didn’t become a criminal and worked his way up in SHIELD until he gained control of it. Now he secretly uses SHIELD for his life of crime.

-HAVOC lost control of his powers after running away and killed several people. Atoning for his sins he joined the Brotherhood, although he still has a short temper and is prone to outbursts of anger.

-NAMOR married Sue Storm and left his kingdom for the land with his lover. The fantastic four were never formed.

Alright I just posted the roster.

Anyone know how Cyrus is? He hasn't been on as regularly.

 

[Matt Murdock]

=-p

 

[Matt Murdock]

Also, please ask to be removed from the roster if you do not plan on posting regularly.

EDIT: That's right, I can remove feature too.

SOMEONE TAKE DOC OCK PLEASE.

 

[Eddie Brock]

So the Venom and Carnage symbiotes both exist? If so, then theoretically, the Toxin symbiote could exist as well, right?

Hopefully the answer to both is yes, because I have a plan formulating.

 

[Eddie Brock]

Ok, everyone should brace themselves. Ready?


WHAT IF? MARVEL RPG SIGN-UP FORM

Screen Name: Eddie Brock Jr.

Character you would like to play: Eddie Brock AKA Toxin. (Go ahead, re-read that as much as you want. It's not going to change.)

WHAT IF? PROPOSAL(and explain why if you can): What if Eddie Brock bonded with the Toxin symbiote? (Explanation in the next section.)

Powers and a brief description of the character in proper English: The Toxin symbiote gives Eddie all the abilities of its father, Carnage, and its grandfather, Venom. Therefore, it has the ability to shoot webs, turn invisible, shape-shift, climb on walls, generate weapons from itself, etc.

(Still confused? Ok, here: ) Eddie Brock was at the peak of his career at the Daily Globe when he was approached by a man who claimed to be the infamous Sin-Eater. Eddie wrote a wonderful article called "MY INTERVIEW WITH THE SIN-EATER." Eddie respected the man's wishes, and therefore, he did use the man's name in the article. Eddie's popularity soared and pressure mounted. The police begged him to reveal the man's identity. Eddie wrote a follow-up article which revealed the man's identity.

(Now, here's where it deviates from the original.)

However, Eddie could not bring himself to publish it. The next day, Spider-Man revealed that Stan Carter was the real Sin-Eater. All along, Eddie had interviewed the wrong man. Eddie was embarrassed until he realized that nobody knew that he had screwed up. Eddie quickly destroyed the follow-up article and claimed that he knew it was Stan Carter all along. Eddie's life only got better from there. Now he was a respectable journalist, and he received all the perks that came with that.

However, it appeared that no one can escape their fate. Not even Eddie. One day, he came across the 1000th symbiote. Eddie had no clue what this thing was when it attached to him. Eddie was scared at first, but he learned to embrace it. Now that Eddie was no longer fueled by a hatred for Spider-Man, he used his new suit - which he nicknamed Toxin - to fight injustice and to protect the innocent.

Three reasons why you have chosen that character:

1. Eddie Brock is my favorite villain, (duh, look at my username), and I'm quite proud of this spin I put on him.

2. It'll be fun playing Eddie Brock as a true hero, not a villain or an anti-hero.

3. Toxin needs some love, too.

What can you bring to this game? I can bring a knowledge of how things are run around here, and therefore, I won't do anything that I know is wrong (such as bunny without permission, etc.)

How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: Frequently.

Do you know how to post pictures on the hype boards:

 

[Matt Murdock]

I say approved, but I'm not sure if I have that authority.
Good to have a third symbiote on the team.

And since I'm pretty sure that apprentice hasn't posted one in more than 2 weeks, I'll be applying for spider-man. He'll talk with your brock about some stuff.

Ok, well I'm going to go type up my first post on Word in the meantime.

 

[Eddie Brock]

Can I get an official or on Toxin?

 

[guitarsingerguy]

Can I get an official or on Toxin?

I enjoy your take on the character. I like it so much, if you get approved I'm considering starting a second character to interact.

 

[Eddie Brock]

I enjoy your take on the character. I like it so much, if you get approved I'm considering starting a second character to interact.

I'm intrigued.

 

[Matt Murdock]

Awesome, guys.

This is what I was hoping for.

I don't think Cyrus'll mind.

on Toxin.

 

[Noon]

Anyone know if Brain is still posting as Mags?

 

[Matt Murdock]

I have no clue. Maybe

 

[guitarsingerguy]

I'm intrigued.

I have to formulate a plan of some sort. I'm not even sure what route I want to go, but I have a design I'm going to use for the suit, etc. I just have to figure out some sort of explanation.

 

[guitarsingerguy]

This is gonna be way the hell out of left field, but I think it'll be fun.

WHAT IF? MARVEL RPG SIGN-UP FORM

Screen Name: guitarsingerguy

Character you would like to play: Eugene "Flash" Thompson aka Venom

Powers and a brief description of the character in proper English: Flash Thompson went to the same high school as Peter Parker. In fact, he spent his days bullying Peter. After graduation, Flash reconciled with Peter and enlisted in the US Army. While serving, word of the hero Spiderman made its way into the military ranks. Flash was envious of the new found hero. Upon Spiderman becoming evil, the military put in motion a plan to fight the villain. Flash Thompson was chosen. The military experimented on his body giving him very similar powers to those of Spiderman. He had enhanced strength, agility, the ability to stick to objects, organic web shooters, even spider sense. Flash was given a gray and black costume made by the military and given the name Venom by his superiors.

Flash returned to New York ready to face his foe. After tailing Spiderman for several weeks, he realized that Peter Parker was Spiderman. Flash became clinically depressed at the thought of having to defeat his former companion. It was high school all over again. Since then, Flash has crawled into the bottom of a bottle, that is, until today.

Three reasons why you have chosen that character:

1. I think it's an interesting spin.

2. Will make it easy to work with Eddie.

3. Keep the RPG alive!

What can you bring to this game? Hopefully some fun and enjoyment.



How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: As many as necessary.

Do you know how to post pictures on the hype boards: Yes.

 

[Eddie Brock]

Now THAT is a twist!

 

[guitarsingerguy]

Now THAT is a twist!

I was sitting here racking my brain trying to figure out who I could pull into the spider family that would be so out there no one would see it coming. I think it worked.

 

[Kaboom]

new Namor post up, if you guys are ready to kick this back into gear im ready to go along for the ride.

 

[Eddie Brock]

I sure as hell didn't see it coming.

 

[guitarsingerguy]

I sure as hell didn't see it coming.

You're gonna need some help doing some good guy spider stuff.

 

[Eddie Brock]

You're gonna need some help doing some good guy spider stuff.

Never thought I'd see the day where Venom and Eddie Brock are heroes and Spider-Man is evil.

 

[Matt Murdock]

You're approved, guitarsingerguy, now lets get this baby back up and running!

 

[guitarsingerguy]

Never thought I'd see the day where Venom and Eddie Brock are heroes and Spider-Man is evil.

Hahaha.

 

[Matt Murdock]

Don't forget carnage


Carnage is a hero!?

WTF!?!

I only have one objection to your character GSG, Corrupted Spider-Man took the name venom in the last post but I'll fix that in my intermittent post.
