While we are only at page 49 of the IC Thread, we are a few days past a year of this Season's IC Thread being up. I'm not saying we have to, but I'm curious as to what the rest of the RPG thinks about how much longer this Season should carry.

With the obvious fact that the past few months have had an unexpected coming of inactivity I wouldn't be opposed to the RPG going on until like November or December and it wouldn't be the first time that the Season ran for more than a year.

Just curious what the rest of you guys think.
 
I would quite like to know how long between seasons we're going to have this time.
 
I definitely wouldn't mind the season going on for another few months.
 
And with that last post, I'm dropping Hawkman. Originally the spark of the Grodd arc made me want to keep him even after this shindig was over...but I'm just to the point where I'm glad it's done with and now I can drop Hawkman without shame.
 
In Sensei's defense, I originally asked him to only play Larfleeze in a "cameo role" this season, on the understanding it would set the stage for a bigger role next season. Hence his inactivity. The nature of the character pretty much dictates he has nothing to do right now anyway.

And I personally would prefer we had another few months on this season. There's quite a bit of ground to cover before we wrap things up. Which is why I'd like this fight I'm in to move a little faster, wink wink nudge nudge.... ;)

People wonder why we do it.

Why we dress up and play hero. Lot of people say we do more harm than anything, provoking crazies to come out the woodwork and dress up with us.

They don’t understand.

One life. If your actions can save at least one life, then it’s all worth it.

Star City

"Crap," I mutter under my breath as I leap across across a rooftop on to the fire escape of the building next to it.

The building I’m outside of just so happens to be on fire. I can hear screams from the inside. Fire truck sirens ring in the distance. They won’t be here in time.

"Why is it always fires and drug dealers?" I say to nobody in particular.

"Why can’t I save the cat of two hot, buxom twins who are in to sharing?" I grumble as I break a window and leap inside the inferno.

"HELP!" Someone screams from the other side of the building.

The fire’s weakening the building’s support with each passing second. I’ve got to move now.

I cough and try my best to look through the smoke as I leap over flames and run towards the cry for help.

"Please, mister. Help me!" My eyes fall on a small girl, her skinny face marked with ashes and soot. She’s coughing and curled up in a ball, fire surrounds her.

"Don’t worry," I pull out my bow and grab one of my special arrows, this one has a blue tip.

"I’m here." I say as I pull my bowstring and let it loose.

FAP!

The arrow explodes and covers the fire surrounding the girl with a thick layer of ice.

"Thank you, Mister Freeze."

One of the building’s support beams gives a moan and a sharp crack echoes through the building.

"Alright, sweetie. Time to go." I say as I grab the girl and sling her over my shoulder.

I run as fast as I can over and through the fire. I block out the sound of the building coming down, I try not to focus on the floor shaking as I run, very close to giving way.

Straight ahead of me is a window, my salvation.

The floor sags beneath my feet and I leap towards the window just as the roof comes down.

KRASH!

The girl and I break through the window. We’re on the second story of the apartment, so I move my body so I break the girl’s fall to the pavement below.

WHAM!

I hit the pavement pretty hard, the little girl bounces off my body and lands next to me. She’s shaken, but she’ll be okay.

But me, that’s a different story. I’m pretty sure one of my ribs is broken, it hurts to even breath. My legs don’t hurt that bad, so they shouldn’t be broken. A sprain is probably the worse I’ll expect out of it.

"Becky!" A voice shouts out. A man and a woman runs up and puts the girl in their arms.

"Thank you, Mister Arrow." The man says as they hold the girl tightly.

It hurts for me to even stand, but I get up and manage to tip my cap to the now whole family.

Like I said. One life and it’s all worth it.

My name is Oliver Queen, I spend my nights acting like Robin Hood and call myself Green Arrow.

Given that Apprentice shows up under a new username, only to disappear shortly after often...and given your consistency with playing the character I say it's good to go. Apprentice's last post was 8/31 and the last time he has been on the hype was 9/8. Looking at his track record...I'd say his is gone yet again.

Well, this is awkward. You see, we already have someone playing Green Arrow...




Luckily it's been over 3 weeks since he last posted
 
Well. I'm dropping Nightwing.

On top of his genius mind, Batman uses his resources of Wayne Enterprises to have the best technology avalible.

Bruce Wayne was just a child when he watched his parents murder. That night, as he laid in the blood of Thomas and Martha Wayne, he made a solem vow that he would seek justice.

Training his body and his mind, Bruce became the crime fighter know as Batman. Many years after taking up his quest, his greatest enemy, the Joker, killed him battle. Being resurrected by Talia Al Ghul, Bruce was rescued by the unlikely team of Joker and Alfred Pennyworth. Now, suffering flash backs to his previous life, Bruce is running from his past and future in the streets of Gotham.

Write two complete sentences using proper English grammar. One to explain what you plan to do with the character you've chosen. The other to explain why you've chosen this character. (i.e. What are your goals? Will you be doing anything different with the character than is usually seen?): My plans with Batman, first and foremost, is to get him back to being Batman alongside playing the caped crusader as he protects Gotham. The reason why I've chosen him? While my username doesn't contain a reference to the Batman mythology like some (Master Bruce, Batman, MaskedmanJRK) I am still a die hard Bat-fan and have been one since 1989.

Now

My breath quickens as I run down the dark alley. I can feel the stitch in my side burning as I keep running.

I don't exactly know what's back there, but I do know I don't like it.

This is my first time in Gotham, but these brick walls I'm running between seem oddly familiar, like I've been here before.

Then

From above the roof, I watch in silence as the men walk out the factory backdoor and into the truck with arms full of stolen merchandise.

I have no idea how I know they're stolen, or exactly why I'm here. I just know they're bad men and they need to be punished.

Throwing the oddly shaped shuirken from my hands, I leap from the rooftop and land in the middle of the small group of men. The shuriken strikes one of the men in the head and he collapses to the ground.

"Oh ****," one of them cries as they drop all the stolen goods in their hands.

I let a growl out as I throw my foot up and strike one dead in the face. He clambers back and crashes into two of his friends.

Not counting the one I disabled with the throwing weapon, I have five left.

The sound of a blunt object flying through the air fills my ears just as I duck and avoid the lead pipe. Reaching up, I grab the attacker by the wrist and twist it until I hear the dry pop that confrims the bone is broke. He cries out and falls to his knees as I drive my fist into his face.

Four left.

Two try to double team me, I move quickly and closeline one hard while I take my free arm and grab him by the throat, I drive him into the pavement with a loud thud.

Two left.

The sound of heavy footsteps on pavement tells me one is coming from behind, I spin fast and roundhouse kick him into unconsciousness.

One left.

He leans against the truck, a look of fear in his eyes as I grab him by the collar.

"What are you?!"

I narrow my eyes as I hold him up.

"I'm Batman," I say as I headbutt him into submission.


Now

I fall to the ground and convulse as the memories come flooding back. Mother and Father's bodies staring up lifelessly from the pavement, Alfred's dry wit, Dick somersaulting in his Robin costume, Jason's body laying limp in my arms, the sound of Bane breaking my back, and Joker's horrible laugh. Good and bad, the memories all come back.

I slowly pick myself up from the pavement, looking around at the dark alley.

Gotham City. My city. I'm back.

I'm no longer The Demon's Head. I'm Bruce Wayne.

And I'm Batman.
