Working closely with [color=gold]SHIELD[/color] and the Intergalactic Community Carol tries to balance her sense of adventure, independence, duty, and ideals in a universe that wants her to be a militant drone and enforcer. She rejects that idea entirely. As an adult, Carol found herself involved with NASA’s foray into a new space program which had her cross paths with [color=gold]Mar-Vell[/color]— a former member of the Kree Empire and an associate of NASA’s in the regards of interstellar expansion and affairs. Not too long after her initial meeting Carol found herself thrown into the thick of trouble when Kree forces appeared and attacked the base she was stationed on. Despite Marvel defeating the invaders Carol was thrown into a damaged Psyche-Magnitron; a device born of Kree technology. Carol was critically injured and the attack by the alien invaders was covered up by SHIELD. However, when she recovered something strange had happened: the damaged Kree technology had reacted adversely to Carol’s physiology, changing her genetic structure and molding her into a Kree-like being. The change would be one she wouldn’t discover for sometime. Following her recovery, Carol eventually severed ties with NASA due to a variety of reasons she was not at liberty to disclose. As she began having strange blackouts and meta-phenomena she decided to check herself out by meeting with experts in the field of meta-biology. With information gained from the studies she would discover what the battle with the Kree had resulted in. As if on cue, SHIELD came walking into her life and she found herself recruited. Remembering Mar-Vell she would take on the codename “Captain Marvel”, a name that stuck. By 2013 she became a superhero in her own right. In the years since, Mar-Vell has disappeared and Carol has found herself juggling Earth and the Intergalactic Community. She was recruited for [color=gold]Lex Luthor[/color]’s vanity project, the [i]Justice League of America[/i]; though there is a bit more to it than just allegiances between corporate and federal lines. Though Carol is finding it rather uncomfortable in her position as lines are beginning to be drawn in the sand. [/INDENT][/color] [color=gold][B]| SUPPORTING CAST: |[/B][/color] [color=darkgray][indent][u]Superhero Associates & Wards[/u] [list][b]Mar-Vell[/b] - The man, the myth, the inspiration. Without Mar-Vell Carol’s life would be a lot less dangerous and a lot more boring. Despite his absence from Earth Carol hopes he is well given the dangerous machinations of the situation in the greater galaxy.[/list] [u]Other Friends & Allies[/u] [list][b]Abigail Brand[/b] - Some might say Abigail Brand got hell of a pay increase when she recruited Carol into the agency, but the former SHIELD operative and now high ranking officer is a no nonsense ally to Carol. She suggested the idea for Carol to involve herself with the JLA.[/list] [u]Enemies & Rivals[/u] [list]TBD[/list][/indent][/color] [color=gold][B]| DIFFERENCE FROM SOURCE MATERIAL: |[/B][/color] [color=darkgray][INDENT]Honestly, unlike my last attempt at Carol this one is a bit more conventional and not a shitty mixture of her and Shazam. I have [i]stories[/i] this time too! Yeah, I know weird right? Anyway, this has some minor differences (mostly trimming of the fat) from Carol’s 616 origin. Which is mostly… her joining SHIELD after leaving NASA. The rest is in-universe melding.[/INDENT][/color] [color=gold][B]| REFERENCES: |[/B][/color] [color=darkgray][indent]Right, references. [sub][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3197675]DC Comics: Shattered Justice[/url] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3003446]Maximum Comics: Dawn of Justice[/url] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3179405]All-Star Marvel: Audax Mundus Novus[/url] [/sub][/INDENT][/color] [color=gold][B]| SAMPLE: |[/B][/color] [color=darkgray][indent]The world sure had changed a lot since she was a kid. Men in suits clamoring on about accountability and safety wasn’t new, no, but Carol Danvers felt the toxicity that the Kelly Act endorsed was. She hadn’t lived during World War II or the 1960’s but… this was what it had been like, wasn’t it? Except they weren’t rounding up asians or segregating blacks this time; this time they were nearly on the point of doing it to people who just happened to be born with one little metagene mutation. A heavy sigh left her lips as she looked down on the scene below. Coast City, though you my as well called it “Ferris Aircraft City” with how much the aerospace company had dominated the commercial sector in the last decade. But the scene wasn’t about them. There was a riot beginning to unfold below and the Justice League had been sent to deal with it. Which was strange… because nothing had happened [i]yet[/i]. Did Luthor have some inside information here? It was weird. None of the people below flying the flag of the Brotherhood of Mutants were on any of the dossiers she had read when she was working full-time as a SHIELD agent. They were unknowns with nobody identifiable among the bunch. [list][b][i]POP! POP![/i][/b][/list] Two gunshots. “[color=gold]Here we go.[/color]” Carol muttered under her breath. Carol reminded herself that the enemy down there inflicted terror and were not the voice of the people she felt sympathy for. These were people who followed the zeal of Magneto and answered with vicious violence. If they were not dealt with swiftly they would endanger the safety of innocent civilians. She shook her head: attacking a public event like this was senseless and had no statement other than reinforcing the government’s belief on the mutant issue. It was [i]dumb.[/i] She imagined Magneto would scoff at this motley crew of mutants chanting “brotherhood”. Then again, Magneto was a [i]psychopath[/i] that believed he was some kind of mutant Malcom X, so maybe he’d think this was absolutely necessary. Whatever the case, she was done gawking. She moved her hand up to her ear, listening to the communication line as she spoke through before she dove towards the violence below. “[color=gold]In position, let's get this show on the road.[/color]”[/INDENT][/color]
