In New Athens, a hero is made every day and a villain every night. A thriving metropolis, New Athens is a modern city, built in the Appalachian Mountains of the eastern United States. Over the years the city thrived with coal mining being it's main source of revenue however New Athens quickly became a leading industrial city on the eastern 'States with several noteworthy corporations' factories and plants. Westman Chemical Plant, Napier Valley Ammunition Plant, Pepsi Cola Bottling Company, and Wells Helicopter are just a few of the reasons people choose to live and work in the grand city of tomorrow. The Olympian Gazette is widely known for its stories of new superhumans and celebrities, as well as the general local news. Midtown is where most of the action is, as well as the Mercury Mall. Subdivisions, landmarks, and schools include Lee Heights, the Kirby River, Shuster Elementary School, Universal Avenue [one of the longest streets in America], Simon Middle School, Kubert High School, Riverview [ghetto subdivision], Highland Park, Warpath State Park [in the mountains], the Museum of Tomorrow [tech museum], etc. The city sees a number of tourists as well, all trying to get a glimpse of superhumans in action. New Athens has more superhumans than any other major metropolitan city in America with a general population of over three hundred and sixty thousand residents with an estimated fifteen thousand superhumans possibly within city limits. And who are these superhumans? [/i][/b] That's where you guys come in. This RP idea is to build a universe but not necessarily a team right off the bat unless the lot of you wants to. We'll mostly be basing our characters off of Marvel archetypes just because they have a wider range of possibilities. Spots are still available and I'll add new types of archetypes as we move forward I'd like to see adapted into the game. Right now several of them are listed under Wildcards for lack of a better term as I didn't want to get super specific when determining the archetypes for this. Available Archetypes and Marvel examples include: Super Soldier [Capt. America, US Agent, Captain Mar-Vell] AVAILABLE. [s]Demi-God/Goddess [Thor, Wonder Man, Sentry, Storm][/s] Advanced Techno [Ironman, Black Panther] is once again AVAILABLE. [s]Feral Man/Woman [Wolverine, Tigra, Beast][/s] Archer/Sharpshooter [Hawkeye, Punisher] AVAILABLE. [s]Size Manipulator [Ant Man, Giant Man, Wasp][/s] Big Man/Woman [Hulk, She Hulk, Thing] AVAILABLE. [s]Vigilante [Moon Knight, Punisher (again lol), Daredevil][/s] [s]Wildcard 1 Wildcard 2[/s] Wildcard 3 AVAILABLE. A few more archetypes and examples of characters I'd like to see introduced are: [b]Cosmic Outlaw [Starlord, Darkhawk, Gamora] Plant Person [Black Tom, Groot] Atlantian [Namor, Attuma, Namorita, anybody wanna put a spin on Atlantis?] Alien 2 [Our demi-god is alien #1; Kree, Shi' ar, random] Alien 3 [I'm willing to accept a couple more original alien races to make it a true universal theme] Elemental [Human Torch, Whirlwind, Storm (again), Iceman] Big Man Villain [Red Hulk, Juggernaut, Abomination] Genius [the Leader, Doom, Amadeus Cho] Wildcard 4[/b] _____________________________________________________________ Here's the list of accepted characters: [b]Feral Man - Dark Wolf - Accepted [mostly cause it's mine LOL] Size Manipulator - Doctor Neutrino - Accepted [s]Archer - Ullyses - Accepted[/s] [s]Super Soldier - Capt.

[@Weird Tales] Did you decide on a character yet, or would you want one of the new archetypes listed? [@Mr Allen J] I made that Plant Person archetype up there just for you! You still interested? Other interested parties can find the Character Sheet model below in the hider. Accepted characters can go ahead and repost the sheets in the Character Tab.
