It's still Lent, but Byrd waits until after trusty posted the new rosters to drop Bart and apply for Guy.

 

[Green Lantern]

I don't have GL on ignore. He's a dear and cherished friend.

The cutting sarcasm behind that just burns. And isn't nice at all.

 

[trustyside-kick]

He has you on ignore.

Like everyone does.

What? Whose post are you quoting? I can't tell.

It's still Lent, but Byrd waits until after trusty posted the new rosters to drop Bart and apply for Guy.

Well I gotta fix a few things anyway. Sorry guys.

 

[Snapper_Carr]

I like the new background for the JLA roster. Always liked that proud looking profile artwork. Just seems to scream integrity and honor. Nice choice.

 

[Spike_x1]

Sorry about the lack of posting. I've let a few pieces of school work pile up a bit too much, so I've been paying the price for that lately. I'm hoping to be back in full soon.

Here is a redo:


DC RPG Season VII Application

Screen Name: Thor Odinson

Character you would like to play (please include the color and font you plan on using to portray the character): Alan Scott

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. :Thousands of years ago, a mystical "green flame" fell to Earth. The voice of the flame prophesied that it would act three times: once to bring death, once to bring life, and once to bring power. By 1940, after having already fulfilled the first two-thirds of this prophecy, the flame had been fashioned into a metal lantern, which fell into the hands of Alan Scott, a young railroad engineer. Following a railroad bridge collapse, the flame instructs Scott in how to fashion a ring from its metal, to give him fantastic powers as the superhero Green Lantern. He adopts a colorful costume (setting himself apart from his successors, as he wore both red and purple in his outfit, besides the standard green) and becomes a crimefighter.[1]'
Scott uses his ring to fly, to walk through solid objects (by "moving through the fourth dimension"),[4] to paralyze or blind people temporarily, to create rays of energy, to melt metal as with a blowtorch, and to cause dangerous objects to glow, among other things. Occasionally uses it to create solid objects and force fields in the manner usually associated with fellow Green Lantern Hal Jordan, and to read minds. His ring could protect him against any object made of metal, but would not protect him against any wood or plant based objects.[1] This was said to be because the green flame was an incarnation of the strength of "green, growing things".

He was Old and Balding. Lying down down on his bed, He was Remembering a former time, the Golden Age Of Superheroes:

He was Currently in a memory of a Battle with Solomon Grundy (born on a Monday).

Grundy faced him and charged. he formed a sheild with his magic ring. Grundy broke through.
"Sorry, Solomon, But I really don't really feel like getting beat up right now. "
Alan Flew up and Peppered the monster with green bullets. Grundy Stagered, almost falling into the ground . Alan made a green energy bowl over Grundy's body. but then..... Grundy ripped a branch out of the ground and began hacking at the energy bowl. The wood penatrated through the energy feild, Freeing Grundy.
"Holy Nazi****ers....."
Grundy jumped up, But Alan was too quick for him: he had formed a sphere around Grundy while Grundy was in the air. He then flew him too the authoroties.
"Thanks, Mr. lantern" Said the police captian.

"No Problem."

Good times he thought. It was a simpler time back then. How I wish that it had never changed, and that we were still in that lush golden never-ending dream.

His phone rang, shoking Alan back into reality.

Hello?

"Alan, This is Carter. You better come to my Muesem quick. I'm-ARGGHHH!"

Carter was in trouble and only Alan could save him......[/quote]

 

[Byrd Man]

Hmm...I'd say your sample still needs a bit more work before it's there. Try and do a better job of painting a picture with your words.

Oh and try to limit the whole "Holy Nazi****ers." thing. Doesn't seem to be like Alan.

 

[Snapper_Carr]

The only JSA characters I could see using foul language would be Wildcat and Hawkman. And I agree with Byrd about painting a picture with words...time of day or night, hot or cold, humid or dry, and where is this remembered battle taking place? City, park, swamp, woods, lake....? Were there bystanders, what was being threatened?

Not trying to take the piss out of ya...just trying to encourage the creative process.

 

[Snapper_Carr]

Wieg...diggin the Sinestro post. Brings a sense of urgency to the threat involved.

Since Mary IS a victim of VD (lol) I'd like permission to bunny her for a Grodd post, of course leaving you ample opportunity to save her, as it's not my place to ruin one of your npc's...

Let me know what you think before I move ahead.

 

[wiegeabo]

Be aware, the Hall of Justice is in the Arctic. So she wouldn't get very far if she tried walking.

 

[Snapper_Carr]

Just looked at the opening page...thanks trusty!!!! Love the Atom pic you chose.

 

[SuperFerret]

You'd let your woman freeze to death in the Arctic?

 

[Snapper_Carr]

He might....it IS Sinestro, after all. But I'm not thinking about having her leave the compound...quite the contrary.

 

[SuperFerret]

Ah, she's gonna rape Booster Gold. Nice.

 

[wiegeabo]

Ah, she's gonna rape Booster Gold. Nice.

Oh, well that's fine. I'll even have Sinestro set up the camera. We'll make millions.

 

[trustyside-kick]

Just looked at the opening page...thanks trusty!!!! Love the Atom pic you chose.

No problem. Once I'm done with Lagoon Boy I may pick up Hawkman again if you wanna team up if you see yourself staying with Ray for a while.

 

[Snapper_Carr]

Yeah, I still always picture those two together. Atom riding on his shoulder. Classic.

I'd be up for that, but only with Atom as a reservist. I'm not sure if I'll be allowed to play two ongoings AND a reservist or not. Then again, if Atom becomes prominent I may just keep him as a regular. Anythings possible at this point. He might even end up Chairman of the League. Bwa-hahahahaha

Wieg...posted using Mary. Any problems, contact me and I'll edit. Balls in your mou...er, court.

 

[wiegeabo]

You bastard!





I'll post in a little while.

 

[Snapper_Carr]

Heh. t:

Planning to use Mary a bit. After all, you brought someone under my influence into the HoJ...can't resist. Won't needlessly kill or alter your npc, just add to her, and your, story by using her this way. Will make any edits in this regard to conform to your characters overall arc (s).

 

[Snapper_Carr]

That's right...Grodd owns your woman. Time to pay the Pimp. I'm sure you've done that before (OUCH!!).

Looks like it's turning out to be a serious threat being presented here...I mean, sh**, even BOOSTER GOLD is involved!!! C'mon... Dr. Sivana, Mr. Mind AND Booster Gold??!!! EPIC!!!!

Seriously, thanks for jumping on board. I'm hoping to give everyone a run for their money by the end of this thing. And yes, I will start pulling out obscure villains to round things out...as well as for my own amusement. Who remembers Calendar Man?? heh.

 

[Catman_prb]

*considers involving Titans...*

 

[SenseiofCheese]

I want to fight a huge gorilla

 

[Catman_prb]

Euphamism?

 

[SenseiofCheese]

Yes.

And no.

 

[Harlekin]

So I know you're all quite past the point of caring, but my Resolution is getting, well, resolved.

Just two more posts and I'll be out of this game for at least a season.
