So many X-Men related characters, I'm honestly surprised. Still gotta figure out where I stand on Nightrunner's J'onn and give him an answer, though.

I have never tried my favorite mutant superhero team before, so it's been a thought. Plus the shenanigans with The Hand would be great. I also want to try Karai again and that'd give us a villain POV within The Hand.

Seing how TMNT is a direct parody of DD turned something greater then the origin of its creation. That would be great.

@Gowi My revised CS:

R O R S C H A C H


Walter Kovacs, 35 (b. 1933)
Vigilante based in NEW YORK
Active since approximately AUTUMN 1955









It is 1968, and Rorschach terrorizes the streets of New York. This version of the violent vigilante has him never meet Nite Owl II, the man who would temper his homicidal tendencies, and thus slides more into a darker, less stable personality. It is because of this that Rorschach has become less of a potential ally and more of a serious threat to the superhero community. Untempered by the supposed benevolence of the Watchmen, I'm planning to let Rorschach's dark side take full control. He will serve as a clear antagonist in many of the story arcs in this universe. Rorschach will also still retain his extreme far-right political tendencies, an interesting trait in the mostly leftist mood of the 60s.

This version of Rorschach will have been born in the 1930s, a few years before his Watchmen counterpart, to allow for him being more experienced at an earlier time. In this universe, the Minutemen were formed during the First World War and dwindled out in the second, due to the success of Captain America. The rampant scandals and failures surrounding the Minutemen initially gave non-powered superheroes a bad name, which led to a need for the Super Soldier Serum to create more effective defenders of the peace. Batman’s success in the 1960s gave an elderly Captain Metropolis hope to restore the golden age of superheroes without powers, but due to old age and interpersonal issues, the Minutemen were unable to reform successfully. The only Minuteman to pass on their mantle to a younger superhero was Hollis Mason, who granted Dan Dreiberg permission to take on the title of Nite Owl in 1963.

Walter Kovacs was born in 1933 in Manhattan, New York, to an abusive prostitute mother. After attacking two teenagers on the street, Walter was brought to the Lillian Charlton Home for Problem Children in 1943, where he became extremely skilled in gymnastics, boxing, and literature. In 1951, Walter left the home to be an unskilled laborer in a garment factory. In 1955, Kitty Genovese was murdered (unlike 1964 in our world) as her neighbors looked on in apathy. Having prepared a dress for her that she rejected, Walter felt a personal connection to Genovese’s plight. In the same year, Rorschach killed his first criminal. Eight years later, he was mistaken by Nite Owl II for the very criminal he was hunting down. Nite Owl severely injured Rorschach, and because of this, the two never teamed up.

@Jacobite I am glad I ended up not taking Rogue at part of my Brotherhood, because that is way more interesting than what I could have done with her.

While I love the addition of Lady Shiva, I can't help but think she'd more than likely hit a lot of the same story beats as Shang-Chi. Assassins, martial arts goodness, being an Asian during the time of the Yellow Peril and the Red Menace, maybe even a Triad or two. Not to mention this means I probably have to throw out the idea of Fu Manchu sending her after him!

In addition, I haven't found much time to workshop Shang-Chi in the past few days as I've got other commitments and what not (and I don't want Ethan to murder me.), but it seems like 1968's got more than enough chopsocky shenanigans in store that it won't need the comic book version of Bruce Lee. That'll show me for giving my friends false hope in the form of half-joking skeleton sheets!

Now I need to go pester Gowi about the other RPs he's running.

Majority of thoughts, though I still need to look over two characters not mentioned:

@Jacobite Apollo, Rogue

I see nothing really principally wrong with Apollo or Rogue, I also like the effort you put in in not only matching my CS template but also keeping it in line with your color code for Rogue.

@Megsychan Magneto

Obviously the CS formatting needs a good modification, but there’s some other things to look at such as the inclusion of Namor, a rather important marque character in Marvel Comics. I like the shift of Magneto’s politics and your interpretative concept. As I mentioned before, all of Magneto’s children fall under legacy rules, so if anyone comes up with interest in Polaris or Scarlet Witch let me know how that discussion goes. Remove Namor and fix the formatting and it’s fine.

@Sodomite Midnighter

Looks fine to me. Curious to see where you go with it.

@icmasticc Lady Shiva

I like this despite my preference for Lady Shiva being a member of Ra’s League of Shadows/Assassins typically—but this is a pretty good spin that provides conflict with not only the dark knight but also Black Canary. I don’t see many issues with it, so it’s pretty good.

@CallSignCorsair Nightcrawler

I think you might want to swap out Killer Croc, or at least read/talk to @Bounce what he’s doing with the character as a central part of one of his story chapters. As a Batman legacy I feel it pertinent to make sure we have no conflict with what Croc is up to. That aside, I don’t see any particular issues and would accept it eagerly.

@BrokenPromise "Captain America"

I’m not sure how I feel about this one, but I’m going to trust you know what you want to do with this arc—especially if a real Captain America shows up during the course of the story.
