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

[Saved]

Was that one long enough? I did a new one. If its not I'll expand on it.

 

[Eddie Brock]

DC RPG Season V Application

Screen Name: Eddie Brock Jr.

Character you would like to play: Cyborg / Victor Stone

Powers: Super Strength, Endurance, Durability, Ability To Interface With Computers, Various Weapons Built Into His Suit

Group your character is aligned with (if applicable): Teen Titans

Three reasons why you have chosen that character:

1) He’s my favorite Teen Titan.

2) I love all that technological stuff.

3) I have a thing for cyborgs/androids.

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 is to possibly join with the other Teen Titans in the RPG, and then we can fight crime and injustice. The version of the character that I am going to draw from the most is the animated version from the Teen Titans TV show.

How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: As many times as necessarily, but still quite often

Color and font you plan on using for your characters speech (Might not be applicable but it makes the roster pretty): Cyborg

Do you have an Instant Messenger? Which one, and what is your screen name?
AIM – SixersFanatic05

How did you find out about this game, Recruitment thread/word of post/seeing the RPG OOC/IC thread? I just came across the thread while checking out the DC Forum.

Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in: Hey guys, what’d I miss? Cyborg said as he walked in to the Titan Tower. Sorry that I kinda ditched you guys, I had to meet up with an old friend in Metropolis. Cyborg took a seat on the couch. He started to flip through the channels lazily. Guys? Hello?! Is anyone here? This was strange. The Titans never went anywhere without leaving notes or contacting him somehow. He tried to contact them via their communicators. That’s when it all clicked, he stared at the face of his enemy.Slade! What did you do with them?!

 

[batnkevlar]

Try to write more than just a sentence or two for the sample. A paragraph at least.

Haha! The guys not getting the point.

 

[Green Lantern]

Syn, here's my sample post; It doesn't have to be this long, but heres a good example of the style we expect. Also look at the one right below yours from Eddie:

Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in:



NOTE: This will be Roy's first post of Season V:



It’s been two months. Two months since we found out that Dinah was alive. Two months since the Parasite was defeated in the battle of Metropolis. Two months since Dick ran off to Blüdhaven in search of who’s running the drug ring we discovered in Metropolis. Two months since I told him to call me if he needed my help, because I needed time to catch up with Dinah, and my daughter. Two months since Lian went ecstatic when she saw her Aunt Dinah. Two months since Lian said, “I told you so, Daddy. I knew she’d be back.” What else is the kid supposed to think? Ollie came back, Hal came back, I’ve come back, and hell, even she’s come back from the dead. The poor girl’s gotta be a bit jaded about the concept…



Roy looked up from his inner monologue to see Lian over playing with Dinah. He’d taken the last two months just to enjoy being a father again. It felt good, although his trigger fingers were getting somewhat restless, and he was starting to worry about Dick. He kept making himself give his partner one more day, mainly because every time he picked up the phone Lian shot him a disappointed look. He had also taken the time off to call Alan, and tell him that he was going on a temporary sabbatical from Checkmate, but if they needed him, he’d be more than willing to go a few rounds.



“TAG! You’re it! No tag backs, daddy.” Lian touched him hard on the arm as she ran by him. He smiled as he looked around.



Hmm, where did pretty bird get to?



He saw a figure crouched by a bush, hiding.



“AHHA!" Roy broke into a dead sprint towards the bush, and dived at Dinah, tackling her into the mud puddle left over from the last night’s rainstorm. “You’re it Tweety. No tag backs.” He grinned at her, and got up, wiping the mud off of his bare arms. “Lian, sweet heart, you ready for your lesson today?”


“Yeah! Yeah! Can we?”



“Yup, lets head back to Grandpa’s range, eh? Shoot some shafts at his easy targets today.”



“Roy, are you sure you should be teaching her archery? Do you really want her following your footsteps?”



“It’s not that Dinah, but she needs to be ready for things. All of her good friends, ‘uncles’, ‘aunts’ and family are in the hero game. Better she knows how to defend herself than me coming home one night to find her hurt or dead. Because its not like I exactly have a secret identity you know, the shades weren’t all that good, plus the whole me being a recovering addict…”



“Recovered, Roy. You’ve been clean since you were seventeen.”



“No, Dinah, it will always be recovering. Once you say that you’re recovered is when you’ll relapse again at any moment. I am not going to succumb to that, so for the rest of my life I’m a recovering junkie. Anyway, that got me into the press so fast that it was impossible to cover it up. Everyone knows that Speedy went on to be a DEA agent, and anyone with enough intelligence to look would be able to find out that that agent was Roy Harper. Frankly I’m amazed that you and Ollie still have secret identities. Especially Ollie, with his beard, I mean, Jesus how many blonde guys are walkin’ around with a Robin Hood beard?”



He looked at her, realizing once again that Dinah wasn’t as old as she once was, even though she had never been that much older than him anyway. He got a smirk on his face.



“What, what’s that look for?”



“Just thinkin. When Ollie came back, he was younger, even claims that physically, he may be younger than me. Heck, might be true. Then Hal comes back, says the same thing. Now you come back, and it’s obvious, you’re definitely around my age physically. Maybe I should try that whole dieing and coming back thing again, I obviously got the short end of the staff there. I came back the same as I died… How come everyone else makes like Ponce de Leon?”



Before she could answer, the familiar sound of “Disco Inferno” came from his pocket. Roy frantically dug for his cell. "Tricky Dicky, baby, whats up?”

 

[trustyside-kick]

Um...is Wonderwoman in the JLA or not? If she is I made another lil JLA banner with her included.

 

[Eddie Brock]

so mine's okay?

 

[Green Lantern]

Just a note though Eddie, using the TT Animated universe won't work well with the continuity of the RPG... Our cyborg should be into his mid twenties much like Arsenal and Nightwing.

Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in: (Not from Comics) Mmhh...well well, it appears that the last son of Krypton still has fight left in his battered body. Tell me, Kal-El, how much longer do I have to endure your pathetic attempt to save your planet from the inevitable? You won't beat me Brainiac!
I've stopped you before! Why should it be any different this time?
Because, Kal-El, this time, you will fail. I've calculated all of the possibilitites in this fight. The problem with you stopping me in times past, is that I learn. I know all your moves and tricks. There isn't anything you can do this time, you have done before! And thanks to Mr' Luthors generous equipment donation, I have all I need to combat your moves, and beat them. Your time in this realm is over, last son of Krypton. All things must come to an end...as for the Kryptonian race...it should have ended millions of years ago.

 

[Green Lantern]

The look is fine anyway you want it. Heck I've designed my own look for Arsenal, just making sure you weren't going to be using him as he was in the show in his early teens or such.

 

[Saved]

Was that one long enough? I wasn't sure how long you wanted it so I used Eddie's as a comparison like you said to.

 

[Byrd Man]

If the Titans need more members they can have Natasha Irons as an NPC

 

[Eddie Brock]

naw, i always thought he seemed like an adult anyway
even if they DID label him a Teen

 

[The Question]

Cyborg seemed to me that he was at least 17 in the show.

 

[trustyside-kick]

Is WW in JLA or not? Didn't get any answers back.

 

[Eddie Brock]

Cyborg seemed to me that he was at least 17 in the show.

i always felt that way too
heck, he even seemed a little older

 

[trustyside-kick]

To me when comparing Cyborg to the other Titans in the animated show...he had to be 18 or 19...most likely 19 though.

he had his car, which didn't help either
haha

Just two suggestions based on your sample post Eddie. Put quotation marks around your dialogue, and space your dialogue as new paragraphs so its easier to read. Other than those two things, I'll accept your application.

Thats still purely dialogue and not all of it is your character's most sample posts are a bit of action along with the dialogue.

I couldn't even understand it dude, sorry. Here are some tips:

1) Use one color for your character, and maybe another color for the other character.

2) Put spaces in between dialogue.

3) We want to know what Brainiac's thinking, how he feels, and what he's doing.

NOTE: Someone might need to take Syn under their wing.

 

[trustyside-kick]

Has he looked at those links on the first page? RPG 101 and Etiquette and stuff. Perhaps that could help?

No, I just need to get the gist of what you guys want in tha application. I wasn't sure what you wanted to start. I am getting off to a rough start with the aplication, but I know how to roleplay well and I'm not one of those B*tches who likes to do random insane killing things cause they want to screw up everything. I know how to rp. I'll fix it.
