The year of 2099 was a rough one for what used to be the United States. Now simply just five larger areas in North America, Alchemax basically owned the northeastern States. Stark-Fujikawa owned a large portion out west. There was even an area somewhere around the Great Lakes now called the 'Bad Lands' where hundreds of savage Hulk-like creatures roamed free. Spiderman has fought against the crooked government and corporate influence of Alchemax over the mega-city now called Nueva York for several months now. Once addicted to a drug called 'rapture' before becoming a superpowered hero, Miguel O'Hara was shocked to learn the drug was really taking a toll on the people of downtown. He got a lead on the guy manufacturing the drug, called the Chemist, but when Miguel approached the vile human being he was caught off guard by the grotesque creatures the Chemist had morphed ordinary people into. When Spiderman tried time and again to shut down the Chemist' operation, the one time renowned doctor helped several of Spiderman's deadliest enemies escape prison.



Now the cannibalistic Vulture is putting his gang back together. Mutagen began killing several people in the downtown area for their sickness and abnormalities. Flipside was now posing as Spiderman's friend once again. The Scorpion of this era was also now on the loose and seemingly targeting his father and CEO of Alchemax, Tyler Stone.


Downtown, where the poor barely survive...


To say the least, the Spiderman of the future could use some help. What heroes will rise and what legacies will be reborn in this cyberpunk future ruled by corporate greed? What other enemies will make themselves known? Enhanced humans, geniuses, mutants, inhumans, or aliens perhaps?!?



Midtown


This RP will be a bit different in format from my other games just because I'm having fun experimenting in my Justice League Unlimited RP (that's ALWAYS accepting). Marvel 2099 will set up the lower class downtown streets of Nueva York, the middle class mid-level lifestyle's of Midtown, and the neon lights and giant buildings that took up airspace in Uptown. Oh and one other thing... the police are a privatized group of mercs with high powered tech and flying cycles called the Public Eye. They don't really care for superheroes. However... I was talking about this being different. Now you can be a hero and banter with Spiderman on occasion and help deal with his released enemies as well as the drug addicts of Downtown... or you could create a supervillain. The idea is if you submit a CS for a villain you're looking for a hero to arch for. Anybody ever see Venture Bros? Now I'm not talking contracts for fighting each other or a League of Supervillains with an incredible rule book and code. Just finding a hero to hate among the heroes submitted.


Uptown, with more lights and ads!


The only cannon I'm using are bits here and there from the classic Spiderman 2099 series, and later on perhaps bits from his current series. This is meant to be the future of the Marvel Universe with a good bit of cyberpunk thrown in, with flying cars, Public Eye surveillance, and the aforementioned villains on the loose already. Now that I think of it, anybody submitting a supervillain CS could even have a rivalry with another established enemy! Also, the North American territories are still under the rule of a President and a House of Reps. The main thing, is that SHIELD is now the private police squad of the President and can operate in any territory.

Here's a list of who we've got so far, heroes, villains, as well as incompletes. Those already accepted repost your CS's in the Character Tab!

The Good...

[Me] - Blaze - ACCEPTED
@NecroKnight - Ghost - ACCEPTED
@Simple Unicycle - Daredevil II - ACCEPTED
@Pleek - THE Nicholas Grey - ACCEPTED
@Dblade26 - Iron Fist - ACCEPTED [omitted the sample post, just visited your profile and checked out some of your writing elsewhere]

The Bad...

@rocketrobie2 - Ton / ANAD Hulk 2099 - ACCEPTED [omitted the sample post, just paste one in later from JLU]
@The Angry Goat - Force -ACCEPTED
@Queentze - Blackguard - ACCEPTED

The Incomplete...

@Afro Samurai - Power Man - PRE APPROVED [CS needs finished]
@clanjos US Ace - PRE APPROVED [CS needs finished]

I'm looking for around eight or so players to get started and I'll likely accept as many as 10-12 if the quality of the CS is superb. All characters don't have to be tied to past Marvel characters, but I'd prefer at least half of them to be. You can put whatever spin you want on a character to make them your own in the future. For more info visit the iCheck.

Remember you can apply as a hero or villain, or even anti-hero! Wanna put your own spin on Captain America? Maybe the grandson of somebody like Storm or the granddaughter of Iron Man, or an all new Nova completely changed from the ground up?

GM Notes: 8/16/17:
Hopefully gonna kick this one off over the weekend!
We've got just enough villains to make
this interesting...

I'll do the sample post later- it's nearly 2 AM.


Character Type - Canon Inspired
Name - Uther Samson Alger
Alias - US Ace, The Roadbuster
Age - 21
Social Class - Downtown
Alignment - Anti-hero
Archetype - Enhanced Human
Powers -
Uther himself has very little going for him. His skull and other bones (including his teeth) are ridiculously durable, and his reflexes and reaction times are far and above the human norm. He also has an outrageous amount of endurance, able to go for a few days without sleep.

On the other hand, we have The Roadbuster. The Roadbuster is Uther's supercar, a custom number with several incredible features that make Uther's job as a courier possible. Under the hood is a custom-built engine powered by an Arc Reactor. The only computers on board are completely removed from most of the more important systems to prevent hacking. The car itself has a Vibranium chassis and suspension, allowing it to absorb the bumps from the road... and any fenderbenders, gunfights, or daring jumps Uther gets into. Thankfully, the windows are made of high-tech glass that's highly reflective- lasers tend to bounce right off. The Roadbuster is completely airtight, with oxygen scrubbers, allowing it to operate underwater for hours at a time or survive encounters with toxic gasses.

Additional systems include:
Rotating wheelwells- The Roadbuster is able to move sideways for a quick burst- enough to dodge rubble or traffic.
Gecko-Grip tires- a coating that allows The Roadbuster to drive on walls
Railway Riders- a deployable set of disks that allow The Roadbuster to drive on old subway tracks- perfect for evading pursuit.
Headlights- that double as nonlethal laser cannons. For the purpose of getting rid of debris in the road and deterring sewer mutants.
Electronic Paint Job- The Roadbuster's paint is a specialized coating that can be changed between a few preset configurations- including midnight blue and pitch plack for stealth purposes.
Scramble Plate- the license plate is able to scramble its numbers, giving false results from databases.

Skills - Even without his cybernetic enhancements, Uther is a master wheelman, equally at home behind the wheel of a sedan and a big rig.
Despite his less-than-legal career, Uther's actually highly educated as an engineer. He builds, modifies, and repairs The Roadbuster himself.
He's a reliable marksman, but nothing to write home about.
Weaknesses - Uther's cybernetics don't have an internal power source- they convert the calories in his body for energy. As such, he has to eat a lot more than a normal human.
Arch Enemy - The mystery dude who blew up his lab.
Appearance -
BRIEF Bio -
Uther and his brother Charles Simon Archer were once engineers working for Roxxon's automotive division. They were tasked with the development of new engines, and were particularly interested in the Arc Reactor that powered much of Stark Industries' technology. In order to help reverse engineer one, the fine folks at Roxxon gave them hard drives their agents "acquired" from various older corporations. While this should have pinged as something sketchy, Uther and Charles were a bit busy trying to do their damn jobs- the world of experimental tech is a cutthroat business after all, full of betrayal and nasty surprises.

Well, throats were cut one night when Uther lost the coin toss and had to go get takeout while they worked overnight searching through the hard drives. He barely opened the door before the explosion went off, blowing him out into the street- and nearly gutting the interior of the lab. Passing out from his horrific injuries, he awoke the next day in the hospital- with several replaced bones and repaired nerves. It seemed that someone was none to happy with the eco-friendly direction of their research and had planted explosives in one of the hard drives. To top it off, Charles was missing- but since the camera was fried, there wasn't enough evidence- or money at stake- for the Public Eye to intervene.

That night, Uther staggered to the scene of the crime, and dug through the rubble. Always physically fit, he managed to move aside enough broken rock to find some things- a cassette tape and a USB stick. Though one off the devices was ludicrously outdated, the other was usable- and Uther was completely unprepared for what he found. There was video footage of a shadowy figure leaving the lab earlier in the day... as well as tampering with one of the hard drives.

This evidence was enough for Uther. But he didn't trust the Public Eye, or Roxxon, to follow up on this information. He was struck by a thought: Iron Man was a superhero with armor made with human engineering. Well, Uther didn't know enough about armor to become a new Iron Man... but he could become a knight errant, seeking his brother's killer on a steed of chrome. He pooled his finances and every bit of material he could scrounge from Roxxon and its labs, and began building. He shut himself away from the world, toiling in a garage foundry to create a car from scratch- and what a car it was. Detroit Vibranium. Ultraglass made from sand tempered in a nuclear furnace. All of Uther's knowledge regarding cars went into building a vehicle that put any before it to shame. Wiping his computers, he set out to find this shadowy figure and avenge the death of his brother... but he has to figure out who in the underworld might want them gone.

Those in the know can be sure of one thing: if you need someone or something to get somewhere fast and safe, and if you can afford his rates, you might just be able to hire a man known only as "US Ace."

Notes - The glove compartment of the Roadbuster contains two things that Uther has deemed utterly necessary for his work- a rather large revolver, and a collection of discs of classical music- such as The Scorpions, Saint Pepsi, and Lazerhawk.

@clanjos I checked one of your IC posts in a Kamen Rider RP. You've got the goods. ACCEPTED!

@Renny Ooooh and he's a villain from the get-go. I like it, just wish he wasn't so young. Still... ACCEPTED!

@Member 00492 I originally had him at seventeen. But I wanted to reflect the possibility for growth with his both his powers and character development. So I looked to Marvel's greatest teenage hero: Spider-Man. I thought to myself, "I can make him a tad bit younger."

I'll slide Nayden into the Char Tab.

@FallenTrinity There's still room, however the CS you PM'ed me had some pretty OP magic. You'd have to tone it down a bit.

Just wanted to see if anyone had any ideas or plot-related stuff they wanted to do with Nayden (The Sentry)?

I'll list some things about him to get some ideas rolling or just to put it out there. Maybe give you guys a clearer image of him.

  • He has a Personality Disorder - Paranoid PD. In other words, he projects his defects onto others in order to be right. He is constantly on the look out for treason but often in the middle of the crowd. In his mind he can do no wrong. He makes no attempts to humanize himself inwardly and knows he's superior to "The Herd" as he calls the mass.
  • Only three people in the Old Nueva Gang knows of his true power.
  • For the most part, he subjects himself to appearing human in the eyes of others. He does this, despite knowing better, in order to better keep a eye on those around him.
  • He goes to High School and is consider extremely smart by the faculty and his peers. Truth be told, he cheats constantly by reading the memories of those who know the answers.

@Rennyhey renny. I'm working on an alien whose alignment is currently unknown (in an attempt to make it like "who can get him on their side" kinda deal) this character won't know how to speak English but he understands it. if Sentry wants to try and manipulate him somehow I'm up for it ^.^

@FallenTrinity Nayden, at the moment, isn't necessarily the type to go recruiting. He's biding his time, laying in the shadow of an influential figure in order to slither out and deliver that lethal bite in the future. Unless your alien is someone powerful, I can't see him going out his way to manipulate the guy. lol. Though he does have the cunning to do so if he sees your alien being useful in the future, just don't expect the relationship to be smooth. The guy is kinda shaky. He can only hold the facade of caring for so long.

@Queentze @The Angry Goat Don't know if you guys would be interested in this. The Gang isn't fleshed out or anything but there is a second-in-command, Boss, and essentially enforcer (Nayden). Perhaps you guys could be working for them in the interests of political assassination or rival gang extermination.

Either way, if you're looking for somewhere to start why not start with The Old Nueva Gang? It won't be around for long but its a way for some of the characters to know/recognize one another.

I'm planning on possibly doing the decendant of a supervillain turning against his family's past and becoming a hero. Would that be doable?
