Ah. Adding a bit of Dave McKean's work into your character, are we?

It's really hard to keep things isolated to one RPG when there's so much crossover in terms of posters.But whatever. Anyone know what was up with the Hype yesterday? I could only get my last post into something vaguely resembling paragraph format by using some HTML formatting. Talk about frustrating, and it still looks pretty terrible.

I didn't have any real problem with the Hype myself, other than the occasional slowness. Don't know what to tell you.
Yes, she does. And it's rather extensive to boot.Kaboom said:
If it's a super-powered heroine your looking for, Mary Marvel is available and she damn near never been used.

I'm definitely interested in seeing how you integrate the KC story into the RPG, if that is what you're going to do.

Screen Name: LibrarianThorne
Character you would like to play: Kon-El, Superboy
Powers: Flight, Tactile Telekinesis, Super Strength, Super Speed, Heat Vision, X-Ray Vision
Group your character is aligned with (if applicable): Teen Titans/The Legion of Superheroes
Three reasons why you have chosen that character:
1) He's a very different character from Darkseid.
2) He's my second favorite character to come out of the Reign of the Supermen, and I loved Superboy during the Young Justice era.
3) He's the most "human" of all the characters who wear the bright red S on their chest.
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?): See the last season of the RPG. I think I can handle the Superfamily.
How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: As many as necessary.
Color and font you plan on using for your characters speech (Might not be applicable but it makes the roster pretty): Bolded Arial Blue as Superboy, non-bolded as Kon-El/Conner Kent
Do you have an Instant Messenger? Which one, and what is your screen name? AIM, LibrarianThorne. MSN, [email protected]
How did you find out about this game, Recruitment thread/word of post/seeing the RPG OOC/IC thread? I joined last season.
Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in (must be at least 3 paragraphs long and contain at least one line of dialogue):
You ever have that feeling when you know you're asleep, and everything tells you you're asleep, but it's just real enough to keep you there? No? Must be just me, then.
See, I remember stuff. Flashes, mostly. Metropolis. The S-man, with that dumb look in his eyes he always had when he looked at me. Like some kinda big brother, and he, well, he never could keep a little bit of happiness out of his face whenever he saw me. He'd never say it, of course. When he's in the suit, and he's got that big red S on his chest, he's gotta be stoic. But I think the reason he took to me so quick is because, for the longest time, I was the only other Kryptonian besides him. Well, half-Kryptonian I guess.
But yeah, back to what I remember. I'm a Teen Titan. I remember Robin and Impulse. And Cassie. Oh boy do I remember Cassie. How could anyone forget her? I mean, she's not called Wonder Girl for nothin', you know? Well, I guess you wouldn't.
I remember the Legion. Dudes and babes from a thousand years in the future. Weird, I know, but bear with me. See, Darkseid accidentally brought me there. He meant to get Cl- I mean Superman. Well, he got me by accident, and then he just dropped me in space. Way to go on the endearment there, but anyway. So these... guys found me. And before I knew it, I was a part of the Legion. Things get fuzzy from there. I know that something bad happened to the Legion when I found a way to get back. We fought the Fatal Five Hundred, and something happened. They said their timestream was destroyed. I think that means they're dead, but I don't know.
I remember Unity. Bludhaven. Bodies everywhere. I don't think I could forget it. Or Imperiex. Could you forget the sight of one of your best friends dying in front of you? Didn't think so. I hate that, of all the stuff I could've forgotten, my brain decided to keep those, the worst. Or at least, I hope they're the worst.
Who am I? You mean you didn't recognize the S? Oh wait, right, I'm not wearing that right now. At least I don't think I am.
I don't know where I am. Not really, at least. Sometimes it's hard to remember who I am, what I've been. So I talk to myself like this, because
I'm the only conversation I'm got. And sometimes I've gotta remind myself who I am.
I'm not Conner Kent. I'm not mild-mannered, I don't work on a newspaper or any of that boring stuff. I'm a superhero, and I got my name right from the man himself.
My name is Kon-El. I'm Superboy.

Just a quick note, if Purple Man wants me to take down the Superboy app, I will. I just saw that he wants Conner at some point this season, and that's okay with me.

My first reaction to seeing that app was: "Damn him!"
But after letting the rage subside and deleting my queries to find your place of residence: "Go for it!"
My commitment to this rpg hasn't been all it should have been lately.
I had some plans for Superboy, but I'm sure those could be saved for a later date when we have more people playing as the Teen Titans, and be able to work in some moments with Luthor and Superman.
LT has been more than accomodating with me about letting me play Mister Miracle, so hopefully putting my planned Superboy story on the back burner will be good enough to repay some of those respects. I'm sure we can work things out so my story can be used at a future date.
Now I just need to figure out who to play instead. Booster Gold? Frankenstein? Captain Marvel? Catman? Adam Strange?
If I see an app for Animal Man, then I'll be angry...and you wouldn't like me when I'm angry...
Never thought I'd give up Superboy without a fight. I guess I'm just in a good mood.
But I wouldn't be me if I didn't at least try and start a little trouble, so I propose bringing my previous Green Lantern Corps idea open to discussion once again. I still think it would be a great way to give the RPG more of a universal feel since all the action usually takes place on Earth. Just something fun for everyone to cut loose on a side story that everyone can be a part of if they like or go their seperate ways. It's a big universe out there, I think its time we start exploring.

I thought you were playing Superman and Blue Beetle, LT? Is Kon only for the remainder of this season? Nice sample post, anyway
