[color=black][i][b][u]Batman's Log: 7-3-2-0-2-0:[/u]

"The end is upon us, and the world is no longer safe. Poisoned by a massive amount of kryptonite during a confrontation with Metallo several weeks ago, Clark - Superman, was left open for an attack from a techno virus of Brainiac's creation. With a weakened body the Kryptonian quickly fell under Brainiac's control and the techno virus allowed him to transform, manipulate, and even enhance Superman's already tremendous abilities. This new Man of Steel has enslaved countless members of Metropolis' populace with the techno virus, as well as several members of the Justice League and up and coming heroes of the Young Justice Academy. We must rise. The heroes must rise, or our futures will end. We can't possibly save them all, but how do you choose who lives and dies?[/b][/i][/color]

Then... I will consume the knowledge of Apokolips and New Genesis.[/i][/b][/color][/center]

This is where the game picks up, three weeks after Brainiac's possession of Superman with the technovirus. We're what's left of the League and YJ Academy. Players have the option of aging an existing cannon character, perhaps retire them with a new younger legacy hero in the YJ Academy, or create an original for the game on either team. However they won't all be originals, I need a few cannons or cannon inspired at least. I'll leave a few spots open in the League and list the ones who are in the League with crossed out names being taken/enslaved by Superman and the Brainiac virus. I'm also putting this in Advanced because I'm looking for people who can advance a story. You won't need to ask me when you can take down Brainiac drones or dozens of techno-zombie civilians. If you get separated from the other heroes and your powers aren't as strong or reliable as others, imagine yourself in a situation like the Walking Dead. It's as much about survival going in to stop this thing from spreading past Metropolis city limits. There will also be plenty of sub-bosses in play [enslaved heroes and villains] when in the city limits and the chance any one of us could be enslaved. Most civilians not infected by the virus have been evacuated, however with an estimated two hundred thousand infected civilians still in the city, there are hundreds of survivors trapped in the subways. These people are tired, scared, and starving.

Looks wise I imagine enslaved civilians looking something like the Husks in Mass Effect 3. They can infect you with the techno-virus by biting you to put it directly into your blood stream. Most of the 200,000 civilians turned into machines won't make it out of this. Surviving civilians with only tech going up their arm or part of their body can survive, but if it's anywhere near the face/head already it's all over.

Accepted players/characters go ahead and repost your CS in the Character tab. I'll try and have an IC up before I pass out tonight... 

The League consists of:

[s]Superman[/s]
The Flash
[s]Cyborg[/s]
Batman
Wonder Woman
[s]Green Lantern John Stewart[/s]
[s]Ditto[/s]
[ACCEPTED] Captain Marvel [@rocketrobie2]
[ACCEPTED] Doctor Light [@TheUnknowable]
[ACCEPTED] Gunrat/Bluebird [@Jotunn Draugr]
[ACCEPTED] Sir William [@Weird Tales]

The YJ Academy consists of:

[s]Nightwing[/s]
Raven
[s]Superboy[/s]
[ACCEPTED] Superbeast [@The Kid Lantern]
[ACCEPTED] the Wanderer [@AgeTea]
[ACCEPTED] Static [@Pacifista]
[ACCEPTED] Kid Flash [@CallMeChaotix]
[ACCEPTED] Starfire [@Angel Vicky]

So... we have Batman, the Flash, Wonder Woman, and Raven left of the heroes in the League and YJ Academy. I threw my old multiple man hero Ditto in the League but he'll be more of an unlimited army once we get to Super Brainiac's central command. Of course older heroes from the ages of 22+ will be in the League. Batman being of the oldest he's in his early forties, the Flash is mid thirties, with the YJ crew between the ages of 15-20 with Nightwing coming in at 21. 

Major differences in this DCU in the year 2020:

[list]
[*] Green Arrow is dead [again lol]
[*] Instead of iPhones and iPads, with Terrific Tech [Mr. Terrific's company] being the big personal and home technologies manufacturer, folks have tPhones, tPads, and T2 Computers.
[*] PS4s will be replaced with 'PSAlphas.'
[*] Villains of Metropolis will also be under Brainiac's control and include: Parasite, Metallo, and Livewire. 
[*] Any characters with tech based weapons are likely to lose them in the gray mass of nanobots currently blanketing over the city remaking it in Brainiac's techno-image. Lots of green and purple bio-mechanical stuff with chrome plated bits everywhere have begun sprouting up.
[*] Limited intelligence suggests the more colored bio-mech towers to be sentient power sources, massive controlling towers, and robot drone generators capable of defending themselves. 
[*] Green Lantern and Livewire are believed to be enslaved to help power Super Brainiac's war machines. 
[*] The Flash and Raven will lead search and rescue teams to rescue trapped civilians in the subways on opposite ends of the city.
[*] WW and Batman will lead the remaining heroes in taking down control towers and power sources throughout the city, and gaining access to what Batman believes to be Brainiac's central command.
