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

Not open for further replies.
I'm dropping the Atom, which should come as a big surprise. Anyway, here's a new app,

DC RPG Season VII Application

Screen Name: Watchman

Character you would like to play (please include the color and font you plan on using to portray the character): The Question/Vic Sage

Powers and Brief Origin (provide at least two sentences) If you copy/paste this information from another website, link back to it, or it is considered plagiarism and is not allowed. :
Vic Sage was originally named Charles Victor Szasz, given to him by the nuns form the orphanage he grew up in. Later Sage would become an investigative journalist working in the corrupt city. Sage would later adopt the Question identity after a meeting the scientist Aristotle Roder. Using the Question he would investigate the city's underbelly. One night he was nearly killed and thrown in a river if he wasn't saved by Lady Shiva. Shiva would later take Sage to see Richard Dragon where he would teach him martial arts and eastern philiosphy.

The Question has no powers. He has a matrial arts training and a detective with brilliant dedective and reasoning skills.

Group your character is aligned with (if applicable):
None

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?):
I've been reading the O'Neil's series and it has been great so I'm intrested in the character. I have plans for him to lead up to bigger stories.

Do you have an Instant Messenger? Which one, and what is your screen name?:
Yes look to the left a bit

If you know how to post pictures, please provide a picture of your character you wish to be used for the Character Roster (if you do not know how, or do not have a preference, please say so and a default picture shall be picked for you):

Question03.jpg


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):


"Question: What happens when Batman dies?"


*******
I decided to take a vacation. It was time to see new sights and sound of Hub City to beautiful Gotham City. I thought it was about time to trade the corrupt cops, politicians, and gangsters for corrupt cops, politicians, gangsters, with the extra flavor of psychopathic super villains that dress up as circus performers. For the past few weeks I've dug up lets say interesting leads.

"Help! Someone help!" Mugging, piece of cake. I hurry down the alley to find our neighborhood lowlife. I grab....lets see, a rock? Yes, I guess it will do. Its a pretty big rock.

"Who the *&^% you suppose to be." Without saying a word even before he turns around the rock smashes into his forehead.

"*&^%."

"You're like a poet." I knock him out with a well place kick to face. A cop car pulls up and I know who it is before they open the doors. I pick up the scumbag and lug him over my shoulder. The woman has already ran off, not even a thank you. I begin walking toward the cop car. A great start to what will probably be a long night.
 
Ah damn. I thought I had posted Andy and was waiting for you.

*goes off to drink himself into a stupor*

S'allright. I'd pretty much run out of things to argue about.

Approved
 
I had a post ready...and then the hype took it from me. It was a good post too...I'll get something up tomorrow.
 
I'm going to announce that I am going to temporarily drop Booster and just stick with Beetle. I'll reapply for him at a later date, but right now I need to lighten up my load, and come up with some more ideas for Booster and then I shall return as the time-traveller.
 
Quick question before I go too far into Superman's space-adventure schtick: do the events of OWaW count as canon in the RPG? I need that for a head-count on which characters I can use and which ones are dead.
 
The RPG's time setting is post Infinite Crisis, so whatever happened in OWaW that IC did not wipe out is still cannon.
 
Righty-o. That changes some of the things I had in mind, but not a whole lot.

I actually believe we're post IDENTITY Crisis, but pre Infinite Crisis. I believe Green Lantern: Rebirth was the last DC event to happen before the game started up.

Okie dokie. All these damn events with the abbreviation IC is confusing, dammit! :cmad::cmad:
 
So... uhm... I could put up applications for about four characters, or you could just let me do my thing:

Thankies. Obviously, I won't be limiting myself to just Crispy.
 
I really love the story you're weaving here, Harl. I'm already hooked. It really does feel climactic, like all the threads of your run in the RPG being wrapped up and brought full circle. It's great to have you back, even if it's only for a brief time.
 
Thanks Keyser, that's what I'm intending to do. Bring all of my work to a close so that afterwards I can possibly start fresh again.
 
I'm the ghost of Christmas past. Stop *********ing on Jesus' birthday.
 
I believe someone was past their two week limit. As such, you must first reapply for said character before posting.
 
I know that. I just wanted to make an entrance. But you had to go and ruin it. I hope you die in a fire.
