The "World of Heroes" DC RPG Season V Signup/OOC Thread

Also, FYI, I probably won't have another Brainiac post up until this Darkseid business is closer to wrapping up. I just don't want to stretch things out with too many filler posts is all.
 
My life is hell. >.<

I'm not going to be on for the rest of this week and maybe not next week either.

A little girl I know was trampled by horses this morning and died. So..yeah...

That's terrible! Things like this really change the way we look at life. My thoughts and prayers will be with the girl's family.

Take as much time off as you need, twy.
 
Sorry about how long it took to get that Darkseid post up, everyone. I just hope it met expectations.

As to what happened, well, basically Darkseid read the mind of Sinestro and got the data on where the orbital platforms were. He then mentally reprogrammed said orbiting death-rays and proceeded to use them on Uxas. For the record, the only reason that plan worked is that the heroes had weakened Uxas enough for Darkseid to punch him through the boom tube.
 
I didn't have Joe kill the ice cream guy since murder probably wouldn't help his future chances of rubbing shoulders with the JLA. :p

And I gave him back a motorcycle, and you can expect him to gain a leather jacket again, soon, too. Makes manipping pictures of Ghost Rider into the Atomic Skull much easier, while also simply reestablishing him as DC's Skull Biker. ;)
 
DC RPG Season V Application

Screen Name: superhero_mania

Character you would like to play: Starfire

Powers: Starfire has the power to shoot powerfull starbolts from her hands. She can also use her star bolt lases vision from her eyes. Starfire can use her starbolts as a protection sheild. Starfire can also fly.

Group your character is aligned with (if applicable): Teen titans, The titans and outsiders

Three reasons why you have chosen that character:

1) She has really cool powers.

2) She makes a great leader in the outsiders.

3) She is friends with every titan/outsider

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?): My goal for starfire is to write the story of (made up) when her, wondergirl and supergirl became friends and it follows starfire making two pals. With starfire i will over grwo her powers to expand and make more of her powers and what she can do.

How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG:
for this story i would say 2 times a week (sometimes 3)

Color and font you plan on using for your characters speech (Might not be applicable but it makes the roster pretty): this is the font starfire is speaking in.

Do you have an Instant Messenger? Which one, and what is your screen name?
sorry i don't have IM.

How did you find out about this game, Recruitment thread/word of post/seeing the RPG OOC/IC thread?
i saw it and i decided to join it.

Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in:
"hi! i am starfire, what is your name?" i said
"my name is kara zor-el or i am known as supergirl." replied supergirl.
"excuse me girls but there is a mission to go on NOW" said wonder girl butting in.

how about that?
 
Perhaps a bit more with the characterization of the sample post?

Your character only had one line. ;)

I'm sure Johnny and Master Bruce can show you some other things.
 
Also, would the plans he said he wanted to do even really work? I mean, the RPG takes off from a certain point in comic continuity. I don't see how he could do a story of those 3 girls first meeting eachother.
 
A sample doesn't have to be a part of any particular story your going to tell. Although it tends to save time to do so.
 
I think he was refering to this:

That would be an issue to wrinkle out with the other characters in the RPG.
 
Yea, I was referring to what he said his goals were. Not sure how that would work out since it's been long since those 3 gals met. I know every now and then the GMs would allow us to take certain things in and out of continuity...but this is a whole different story here.
 
Yeah, my vote is that it's TOO FAR out of continuity to allow... plus the sample post left more to be desired...
 
On that note, would it be a big deal if Jay got involved in getting revenge on Deathstroke? If you've already got something planned out, don't worry about it.

I was just thinking about pushing Jay over the edge and (almost) killing Deathstroke. He'd figure 'Stroke has to die, and one of them will do it, and it's better his life is ruined than Dinah's.
 
I just wanted to back up BB on saying that the Seven Sins of Arkham will wrap up soon. Once she covers wrath, I will finish up and get us where we need to go so the smackdown of the multiverse happens between Darkseid and Mr.Miracle. I hope we can make it worth it.
 
All right...I'm going to implement something that's been tossed back and forth for a bit now.


From now on...all sample posts must be at least three paragraphs long and contain at least one line of dialogue.
They don't have to be huge paragraphs, just a enough so that we AGMs (and the Gamemistress ;)) can discern whether or not the poster of an app knows the character well enough to play them.
Some of you may say that this is too much for a sample post. Well, if you've got problems writing three paragraphs for a character you wish to play...maybe the RPG is not something for you to be involved in.

See above. You'll need at least three paragraphs and at least one line of dialogue for your sample post before being considered.

Also, as for your plans for Kory...I personally wouldn't allow it since it majorly ignores current continuity.
Not trying to be a dick or to scare you away from the RPG, but unlessed you planned to do it in flashbacks (which would require getting into contact with anyone playing any of the characters you wish to use, and possibly reading up on past continuity) you'll have to think up something else for Starfire.
Which shouldn't be too hard. There's plenty of stuff going on in the RPG and plenty of PCs to interact with to get you started and give you some ideas. :up:
 
Just want to let you know...

The OU's big arc for Season II (Coming of Galactus) will be starting soon, and there's still plenty of characters available if anyone wants to get in on the big one. I know the entire FF are up for grabs and we'd love to have them involved in the arc.
There's actually a bunch of the top dogs from both DC and Marvel still available, heroes and villains alike.

Here's lists of some of the characters that have yet to find a good home...

Available Heroes

Available Villains

There's some big names on those lists, and hopefully some of them will get taken off the board soon by a few of you excellent RPers. :D :up:
