"It is what it is. You're a criminal, metahuman, whatever... but you're currently doing time. You've just been offered a deal. Use your powers and skills to do black ops missions for the government in which you'll receive time off your sentence or full pardon, or they'll go back to making your life hell. Amanda Waller is looking for the ones nobody will miss. Expendables in her eye. You may only just have one power. Or hell, you may just be one of the best thieves in the world with the right toy in your hands. You've all got your history however brief or uninspiring. Now... what's it gonna be nutjob? You gonna join Task Force X?"
What I'm looking for in this RP is a handful of supervillains we'll have placed within the DC universe. Don't worry about making super fine details about which era of the comics it's inspired from, just toss a guy/girl in there and have him/her get taken in by one of the superheroes... or even just the police. I haven't seen all of the new film, and I don't read the current books, I'm just a fan of the concept from way back when Bronze Tiger was the 'hero' of the team. I should also note there can also be up to two government heroes or agents working with the team, similar to other incarnations that have included Bronze Tiger, Rick Flagg, Vixen, Katana, June Moon, the Atom, and Cameron Chase. The original characters involved can't be anything patterned off an incredibly powerful character like Superman, but you can have a power or two. I'm looking for mostly street level criminals. Or if you really want, you can use somebody from the source material like Capt. Boomerang, Harley Quinn, etc. who could still be a survivor of past missions and still under the thumb of Waller. Just none of the more premiere characters that are on several wiki lists as members like General Zod, Doomsday, Black Manta, etc.
Any dropouts will be killed within the context of the game if you disappear on us for more than a couple weeks without mentioning something in the OOC.
When the first mission ends, any dropouts can be replaced with other interested parties from the ongoing iCheck before we begin our next mission. I've already got the first three missions in the pipeline. The first will involve a government research center in Texas that possesses fractured Scarab tech similar to that of the more recent Blue Beetle.
I'll update this opening post at the beginning/end of every mission to update the roster, and to list any deaths that have occurred. If you see your name, go ahead and repost your CS in the Character Tab.

GM Notes 11/19/16 - UPDATED the active roster as well as others still in the fold. Also bringing in another new character in Knight Cat. Working on an IC post to move things forward, this mission may last a little longer than I was shooting for but sicknesses be damned! LOL
~KL~
