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

[Byrd Man]

Hey Byrd man, you know what book jenni's looking for right? It's Iris and the Flash History book... in other words, the book that can tell the future...

Yeah, the one Iris wrote Life Story of The Flash

Or do you mean the one she was forced to write? That roadmap of the future or something like that.

 

[batnkevlar]

Uh, yeah, she can't get that in a library... and where's Bart heading off to?

 

[batnkevlar]

I meant the Life Story... what's the roadmap? Is that a new BartFlash development?

 

[Byrd Man]

Uh, yeah, she can't get that in a library... and where's Bart heading off to?

To do his job.

Naaah, I didn't want to get in your hair, I got something lined up we can have them meet after I'm done with this.

Oh and the roadmap. Iris was kidnapped by Polaris and Abra Kadabra and forced to write everything she knew about the future so that they could have a "roadmap into tomorrow" for their plan of world conquest. Don't remember which Flash issue, but it was the late 90's.

 

[batnkevlar]

Hmm... the roadmap wasn't in Geoff Johns Flash run, so I'm guessing it was in Waid's?

There's no word of a roadmap at Hyperborea... so i dunno...

Hmm. It's been awhile since I read that issue, I want to say it got destroyed sometime before the end of the issue, so it's not too important.

 

[Karem-Knight]

God dammit I'm gone for two days and someone's had a birthday and I've missed a bunch of posts.

 

[batnkevlar]

And guys, what's the status on the League?

 

[In2Minds]

DC RPG Season V Application

Screen Name: In2Minds

Character you would like to play: Robin/Tim Drake

Powers:None

Group your character is aligned with (if applicable): The Batman Family/ Titans

Three reasons why you have chosen that character:

1) He has a very compelling back Story

2) I love his one liners in the comics and Tas.

3) There a lot of Directions I'd want to take the Character.

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?):

I plan to explore Tim's Darker side, in the comics he always seemed an out and hero, i want to slowly turn him around and create a more agressive Robin, though not evil as such.

He will still be Allies with the Bat Family but I want to create a stir within the unit and see how other character's might react to my new Tim.

How many times do you intend on posting a DAY IN the RPG: four or five maybe more

Color and font you plan on using for your characters speech (Might not be applicable but it makes the roster pretty):Is this ok?[/]

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

How did you find out about this game, Recruitment thread/word of post/seeing the RPG OOC/IC thread? I saw the sign up thread thought it looked like fun

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):

Robin stood surveying the skyline of Gotham City, thunder crackled overhead as the harsh rain began to assault the rooftops.

"Help, Please!" Yelled a woman's voice from the shadows.

Robin smiled "Hero time" he laughed as he took out his Grappling Gun and pointed it towards a stone gargoyle jutting from a nearby church. He latched the line around the statue and tested it to just to make sure.

When satisfied he swung down to the woman's position, leaped off the rope, Kicked a thug in the back of the head and landed gracefully on the hard concrete.

"You ok?" he asked.

After sending the woman home Robin clicked on his Radio. "Batman, this is Robin, I think we might be busy tonight."

"I checked the thugs out, seem they're part of Two-Face's gang, I'll do one more sweep then head back, if i find anything i'll let you know. Robin out".

The radio clicked off as The Boy Wonder raised his grappling hook to the rooftops.

 

[Green Lantern]

Sorry man, but we already have a Two-Face right now.

 

[In2Minds]

no worries i changed my post

You're going to need to add to your sample post first.

 

[Johnny Blaze]

And guys, what's the status on the League?

Far as I know (which isn't much), there's not a League at the current time.

 

[In2Minds]

You're going to need to add to your sample post first.

if you want more that's fine by me.

added more, any better?

 

[Johnny Blaze]

Yeah, that'll work.

A suggestion though...

The whole font/color thing is really just to differentiate your character's speech/thoughts from the rest of the post. It'd look better to just use the Dark Red, Comic Sans for those parts and the rest as business as usual.

oh no worries then, sorry i got it confused :P

 

[Johnny Blaze]

Ok, you're...

Just be aware that Robin has a history in this game. When I first joined he was all Punisher-like and in the guise of the Red Hood. Batman was able to bring him back though, but I can't remember what drove him down that road in the first place.
Also, his father was killed by Zoom a few seasons back.

As for where he was left off...I can't remember off hand. Somebody else should be able to fill you in on the last place Tim was at.

Probably be able to give you a much better backstory than I did too.

 

[In2Minds]

speaking of which before i get started would someone fill me in on Tim's backstory, i dont wanna jump in randomly and all that.

 

[wiegeabo]

Well, you can probably ignore what the last person did with Tim. They were going to do something with him, but only posted as him a couple of times. It never really went anywhere.

I can't remember why Tim went all Red Hood either, but while he was the Hood, he killed Poison Ivy (made her fall from a building) and blew up the Batcave and a good bit of the Mansion. I think Bats has rebuilt everything. And Ivy has come back since then, but Tim was pretty eaten up by all the stuff he did while he was Red Hood. I think he even went to New York for a while to find himself again and earn the right to be Robin.

Oh, and the Joker killed Alfred back in season 2, so Bats has sort of been on his own. Sounds like he could use a Robin again.

 

[Byrd Man]

Cool, we got a Tim. I was the last one to use him. Bart and Tim protected a comatose Superboy from Match. Apprentice and I talked about getting the Titans back together before he dropped out.

Oh, that's right. Don't ignore byrd's stuff with Tim. It must have been the person before that that didn't really use him.

that sound cool, i'll use that as a jump start

 

[batnkevlar]

So any prospective Leaguers? I had a plot point i need to do, but to do it, i need the League up and running...

who wants to restart the League? We need a solid stable League right now, cuz every season it gets turned upside down on its head...

 

[Spike_x1]

Joe's definitely interested in joining the League, if they'll have him.

 

[SuperFerret]

Speaking of a League, I'm officially dropping Barry Allen (big surprise) and I'm looking to pick J'onn back up.

Expect a slew of posts from me in all the RPGs tonight. I'm feeling creative.
