Westchester RPG: Season One "First Class" OOC

[Westchester]

​

Game Master: Ol'Canucklehead

Co-GM: Matt Murdock

AGM: Venom160

The following article was provided by the DAILY BUGLE Newspaper​

"Scientific research has always shown that the species of this planet are in a constant state of evolution. Researchers have used examples of countless animal species for years and we have watched their progression. However, the one question in all of our minds has been, if all that is around us has evolved, and it is possible that we evolved from other forms of life, than are we still evolving into yet another species? The answer is undoubtedly, yes.

Professor Charles Xavier, one of the most predominant researchers of our era, says that he has discovered that we as human beings are evolving, mutating, into what is known as homo-superior. A new race of men capable of doing things that we could have, until now, only dreamed of in science fiction. Professor Xavier believes that these types of "mutations", as he calls them, are nothing new, but in fact have been occurring for decades, if not centuries. He believes that soon "Mutants" will become increasingly evident, and that with such an occurrence they will be met with the same fear and ignorance as any other race of man introduced into a culture in which they have not yet been commonly accepted.

Professor Xavier has founded his own private school only last year, in hopes of bettering the minds of young America, and teaching them what he calls "Important lessons for tomorrow." He plans to teaches his student of tolerance, acceptance, and general moral issues that are commonly over looked in todays society. When jokingly asked if he was using the school as a superhuman getaway he laughed and said only, "One can only dream of something that wonderful.""

-Benjamin Urich, BUGLE staff writer.

In Westchester, New York, Charles Xavier has created a school which appears to the general public as nothing more than a private school for gifted youngsters. In all actuality it is a safe-haven for the young mutant population. After having a falling out with his old partner, Eric Leinsher, Professor Xavier realized that in order to help create a world in which mutants can be accepted, he must help create structure and morality in the young mutants of today's generation. Professor Xavier believes that if he can reach these few young people than perhaps he can help to set the ground work for future generations and create a preemptive measure against ignorance, bigotry, and hatred. This is the story of those students, this is the beginning of what will become legend, and this is where heroes are born.​

This is Westchester.​

• Be serious, no slander, or impractical actions from your character. Example; "I found a crystal and now I own the world! You're all my slaves!"
• Currently you are allowed one character per player. If and when a certain level of dedication is established we will institute a multi character rule.
• Applications are taken on a first come first serve basis, however if multiple applications for the same character are applied at the same time all aps will go under consideration for who is the most qualified to play the character.

1. To add a new twist to his origin.

2. He is my favorite hero.

Please Provide A Small Sample Post In The Format You Wish To Portray Your Character In:


The door opened, I smelled her perfume, his tabacoo, and the sex that followed them from the car. This town was too predictable, something out of a crappy new age western. Gun totin country folk who drive their desiel trucks and love their beer. I can't stand most of it, I just sit in the corner keepin to myself, tryin not to be noticed. The bar girl come over to me an asks,

"Can I get ya anythin else sugar?"

I respond, "A new life, or a bottle beer, you choose."

"Sure, what kind."

"I'd like to be a rock star please, they don't worry bout much."

"What kinda BEER mister."

"Guinness, extra stout."

"Sure thing." She says with a little disgust.

Before I can think much more the door opens again, guy walks through, I smell his after shave, the alchohol already on his breath, and the.....GUNPOWDER!

"EVERYBODY FREEZE! GET DOWN! GET DOWN!"

He pulls out a gun and waves it around. I stand up and walk towards him.

"I SAID GET DOWN! You some kinda freak or somethin, walkin into a loaded gun, you wana die?"

As I get next to him I say, "Right on all acounts. But you aint hurtin these people."

"**** YOU!" He says pullin the trigger.

I real back and take the pain, look him in the eye and say "NO, **** YOU!"

I pull my hand across and he falls to the floor and lands on his stomach, I turn and walk outa the bar, everyone sits inside confused, barely movin. I get to my bike and start it up, and just as the engine roars I hear a woman scream.....they must have turned him over.

Screenname: Eddie Brock Jr.

Character You Would Like To Play: Piotr Rasputin/Codename: Colossus

Powers: Superhuman strength; superhuman endurance; skin can convert into organic, metallic alloy which is nigh impenetrable; when in transformed state, Colossus no longer requires oxygen, food, or water.
Basic Origin of the Character: Piotr Rasputin was born to a very poor farming family in Russia. Like any other teenager, Piotr wanted to have a social life. However, his family's financial troubles - coupled with his sister Illyana's rare, unknown illness - forced Piotr to stay at home and work on the farm. At 6'3" and nearly 220 pounds, Piotr was built quite well for the hard labor he would need to perform. What neither Piotr nor his family realized is that Piotr was so strong that he went well beyond the normal limits of a human being. It wasn't until Piotr's true ability first manifested that everyone realized that Piotr wasn't, in fact, a normal human being.

Piotr's family faced many hardships due to the social stigma of having a mutant child. Piotr was asked to drop out of school, so as to help the students feel safe. Many nights, mutant haters would vandalize Piotr's home or threaten his family's safety. Though Piotr wanted so badly to retaliate, he was too much of a gentle giant to harm another person. So for months, it looked as though Piotr's life was effectively over. That is, until the Rasputin family learned of the American Professor Charles Xavier and his work with mutants...

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:

1. Let's face it: Colossus has one of the coolest abilities. The irony, of course, is that below his impervious shell, Piotr is actually very self-conscious and sensitive. It creates a nice contrast.

2. Piotr is used to being an outsider due to his mutation. However, he thought that things would get better when he enrolled in Xavier's school. Unfortunately, even here, he found that he was an outsider - 'the foreign exchange kid.' Piotr constantly feels like he must prove himself.

3. There's just some part of me that connects with Colossus. I can't really explain it - I'm not Russian, and my skin isn't made of metal. But whenever I read a story with Colossus, I feel like he and I are one. Perhaps it is because of the qualities I mentioned in the other two reasons.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person : As I outlined in my reasons for choosing him, I want to play up Piotr's sensitivity and outsiderness. The image of a gentle giant is always a nice one to see - as it completely contradicts our normal idea of someone so large. Piotr is one of those friends who will talk with you about anything, and if anyone is bothering you, he'll stomp their face in. Everyone needs someone like that in their life. Calm and collected - yet willing to fight for his beliefs.
Two Complete Sentences In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): As a player, I can bring reliability and support. I would say that I can bring faithful representation of the character's core, but that's really for the readers to decide.

What Fonts Do You Plan To Use For Your Character’s Speech? (Makes the roster look better): It's bold gray Georgia.
Please Provide A Small Sample Post In The Format You Wish To Portray Your Character In:

I sit nervously in the kitchen, waiting for this Professor to arrive. Mother has ordered me to wear my nicest suit - though I am not a particular fan of getting dressed up. Nonetheless, as I twiddle my thumbs, I stare down at the half-polished shoes upon my feet. I hope that this Professor does not think I am a slob - he simply must understand that my family doesn't have much. Not even shoe polish.

When there is knocking at the door, I jump up and walk briskly to answer it. I am the only member of my family to speak English - albeit with a heavy accent. "Hello, you must be the Professor," I announce while extending my hand.

The bald man in the wheelchair smiles. "Well, aren't you a growing boy?" he laughs as he takes my hand. "I am Professor Charles Xavier. I assume that you are Piotr Rasputin."

I nod. "We have been waiting for you, Mr. Xavier," I explain. I almost offer him a seat, but I suddenly realize that he does not require one. I help myself to the largest armchair in the room. "Can I get you anything?"

"No, thank you," Mr. Xavier replies. "Please, call me 'Professor.' Where are your parents?"

"Father is working in the fields, and Mother is upstairs with Illyana," I respond. "They are a little shy."

Professor laughs softly before stating, "Actually, I almost prefer it that way. After all, we're here to discuss you."

I nod. "So what do you want to know?"

Character You Would Like To Play: Scott Summers (Codename: Cyclops)

Powers: Scott has the ability to fire blasts of energy from his eyes strong enough to level a mountain.

Basic Origin of the Character: Scott Summers has always been a loner. Always the one that is pushed to the side and ignored, always living in the shadow of his older brother Alex. When he was thirteen an car accident killed his parents and severly injured him and his brother. After they recovered Alex, have just turned 17, had to become the parent to his little brother. Which became even harder when Scott's ability manifested forcing Scott to go without his sight. Alex, who secretly gained quick control over his ability when it manifested, desperately searched help for his brother. When it seemed hope was lost he recieved an email from a Charles Xavier.......

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:
1. Scott has always been one of my tops five X-men.

2. His power is badass.

3. Two words: Jean Grey.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person : Im really going to show Scott coming out of his shell. From the withdrawn lonely kid into the fearless leader he will one day be.

"So uh how are ve supposed to get in?"

As if answering Kurt's question the door opens revealing a huge open arena. Its completely empty except for the bald man in the wheel chair in the middle of the room.

"Welcome to the Danger Room class."

Character You Would Like To Play: John Allerdyce Aka Pyro

Powers: Ability to manipulate flame yet unable to create it. Is immune to heat and fire damage.

Basic Origin of the Character: John was born to a loving family in a rural town somewhere in midland America (Yeah I'm changing a few things, I can't write the Oz accent without parodying it.) On his 16th Birthday he caused an accident, burning his home to the ground, witnesses said they saw the candles on the birthday cake engulf the room John was in, spreading quickly, it was a miracle no one was seriously harmed.

John wasn't seen again, filled with fear and shame he fled seeking answers.

Three Reasons Why You Have Chosen That Character:
1. Cool power, I mean come on, who wouldn't want this power?
2. I am a fire starter! A TWISTED FIRE STARTER!
3. Lots of potential for new stories and interactions with other students.

What Do You Plan On Doing With This Character As A Person : He's going to be a bit timid at first but grow into a complete show off with an ego the size of Texas. Have a firey temper (ha! get it?) but deep down he knows whats right and wrong.

Two Complete Sentences In Proper English Explaining What You Can Bring To This RPG (As A Player): Another player and (after this week) hopefully a consistant one. Also, The Prodigy.

He was rescued by the Allies just before his execution and has spent his years of adult-hood in England. At age 20, he met Charles Xavier and the two shared the secret of their mutant abilities. They became fast friends and worked together for the pro-mutant agenda until Erik's wife was killed by a Klan member.

Basic Origin of the Character: Erik was a prisoner in a concentration camp when he was very, very young. He was rescued by the Allies just before his execution and has spent his years of adult-hood in England. At age 20, he met Charles Xavier and the two shared the secret of their mutant abilities. They became fast friends and worked together for the pro-mutant agenda until Erik's wife was killed by a Klan member. Erik's take on the human race was forever changed as he decided that it was mutants who were the dominant species destined to rule. After a falling-out with Charles, Erik now searches for other mutants to help him in his war against humanity.
