Um...no you didn't.






*quick edit*

 

[trustyside-kick]

Ok I just caught up on some of my IC reading and I'm REALLY confused now wieg. My latest Hawkman post was him heading to where Trickster and the other 2 heroes are. But prior to your latest post, you had Carter with you and Mirror Master?

I is confuzzled.

 

[wiegeabo]

Easy enough edit.

Although you're the confusing one because you say Carter takes to the skies, but then in the last line he's still talking to Jay.

 

[trustyside-kick]

He was shouting down to Jay as he was flying to the building.

 

[wiegeabo]

Well, it doesn't say that, does it now.

 

[Byrd Man]

Okay. Hate to do this, but I'm dropping Flag. Mostly it's cause Soze put a gun to my head.

Oa

"What the frag are you doing here?" Kilowog asks bluntly as I lean against the emerald wall outside the Guardians chambers.

"The smurfs want to talk to me."

"Could have something to do with that fight you started last week in the cafeteria."

"Not my fault the newbies don't know how to control their rings. Best I hurt them before they hurt themselves or others."

The chamber opens up and I nod to the big guy before I go in.

"If this all works out, I'll see you in five."

"And if it doesn't?"

"Well..." I say with a crooked grin.

"I hope Qward is nice this time of year..."

​

"Guy Gardner. Green Lantern 2184.2" One of the blue men say as I stand around them in the dark chamber room.

"In your time as Green Lantern, you have instigated fights, behaved reckless at times, and thrown caution to the wind as you rush into situation."

I can't help but smile at the thought of some of that. While it's a wonder I'm still alive, I do know that it's been one hell of a ride.

"But, you have showed unmatched bravery, iron-clad willpower, and courage in the face of fear. While controversy follows you everywhere you go, you are a true leader and can help mold and shape the future of the Corps."

I arch my eyebrow slightly, wondering where all of this is going.

"We have discussed it, and you are being placed on assignment here on Oa. As a member of the Green Lantern Honor Guard. The lead member of the Honor Guard."

My mouth almost drops as the chamber door opens.

"You are to start your duty first thing tomorrow. Good luck, Green Lantern 1."

I casually stroll out of the chamber and wait before it closes before I throw my hands up and yell into the sky.

"SUCK ON THAT, JORDAN! 'GREATEST LANTERN' MY ASS!!

 

[wiegeabo]

Approved.

[Byrd Man]

Good work with the list, wieg.

Also...feedback from the proposed crossover idea? Where is it? We need everyone to weigh in on it, regardless of your stance. I don't want anyone *****ing when this happens, so get your ****ing gripes out the way now, *******s.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Honestly, I'm not overly keen on the idea.

While a crossover in theory sounds like a fun idea, I think it's something that would need to be built towards, so a story can grow out of it organically. As it stands, it would risk derailing the storylines we're currently in the process of building.

 

[Byrd Man]

Well, it's not something we're doing next week. They have a planned arc that would fit perfectly with this and with what all is planned next season, this could work with that too.

 

[trustyside-kick]

Believe me Keyser, we kept mentioning how there will be some big arcs next Season. They are not in a rush and neither are we. Although we did think next Season sometime would be the time to do it. One of those arcs is actually what we had in mind tieing this crossover into. We just haven't bothered contact the mastermind of said arc since we aren't sure how the general RPG feels.

 

[SenseiofCheese]

First off, I agree with Keyser on the crossover business.

Second, I will have a Larfleeze post up later this evening, sorry for the delay.

 

[Watchman]

I'm intrigued with the crossover idea but I would like to know more before jumping into it.

And on that note I'm dropping Captain Marvel.

The "World of Heroes" 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): Black Hand/William Hand, Black Georgia

Powers and Brief Origin (provide at least two sentences)William Hand was the black sheep of his family. His father ran a funeral home where he became obessessed with death. He soon left the family and became a criminal where he donned the costume of the Black Hand and had numerous run-ins with Green Lantern. Recently, after a bad team up with the Joker he was severely injured by a group lead by the rock star Glorious Goode who blow off his arm. He was later kidnapped by the same group. His current whereabouts are unknown.

Black Hand once possessed a Divining Rod created by the alien Atrocitus. The Divining Rod allow him to manipulate the Lantern's power rings. The device, though, was destroyed when Black Hand was attacked.

Group your character is aligned with (if applicable): You know

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?): Well lets call this character the "bridge" character between two stories. It can help me further a story.

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

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):

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):

"There..."

"Yes, son?"

"There, thats where I want to be bury."

My dad spoke to me very little after that dad. We are told many things when we grow up. When we die we go to heaven, we go to hell, there is nothing after death. Few people now the truth about what happens after you die. Few people know that the life that is death.

We all have roles in our lives. Jordan has a role. My old role was a common pest, a thorne in his side. Now I have a much larger role. Something much greater. I serve a great master that will show the world the freedom from life.

 

[Byrd Man]

Approved

One of those arcs is actually what we had in mind tieing this crossover into. We just haven't bothered contact the mastermind of said arc since we aren't sure how the general RPG feels.

But that's the thing. I - along with other people - have spent this season thus far painstakingly sowing the seeds for a big arc that won't really bear fruit until next season. So we go through all this build-up for our big story, then the time comes to follow through and deliver on it, and....

HEY GUYS CROSSOVER TIME!!!!!!!!!

And the long-term planning goes out the window. That's the thing that worries me.

 

[Keyser Soze]

On another note, great work guys on developing this War of Light storyline. It's great seeing it branch off in a number of directions.

And the long-term planning goes out the window. That's the thing that worries me.

When I approached the other RPG's Mods I made it clear that we had several big arcs about to happen. I made it super clear that it would not interfere with your War of Light arc, Soze.

Not sure why you are so worried. I said this earlier above, just not directly concerning the War of Light arc. But I wouldn't have come up with this idea if it was going to ruin things.

 

[Byrd Man]

Yeah, Soze. I mean this whole thing will probably take place in Season IX at the earliest. Everythng people have planned next season will come to fruition.
