I don't know if I'm overly late to this party or not. I just saw this today. If I am, I apologize, and I'll just fart off into the ether. But I've really wanted to play in a DC RP recently, especially ones that let you play canon characters with tweaks. So. Here's my CS.

Noted, I changed Barda's background so she's not a New God, to make her powerset far more reasonable and RP-able. Also, just avoided mentioning all of that because I'm unsure what plots with Darkseid the RP might have in the future or might have had. But the broad strokes are there. I hope. Also, sorry I shook it up a bit with the sample. Wanted to try something different, but I still stuck to the prompt.

@Shellshock Shazam, @Unknown100 Supergirl, and @Sofaking Fancy's Big Barda are accepted.

And that's everybody save for the GM's (myself and @Sir Lurksalot). I've got to edit my CS since Supergirl has been aged up, and I'm not sure what part of his CS Lurk still had to finish.

In the event we have any dropouts early on or we gotta give somebody the boot I may contact a couple of you for reserve status. That way we can keep a full cast without having to go through with recruiting again should a spot need filled.

Thanks to everyone who showed interest, returning players and new ones alike! I wish I had enough GM's to make this a 15 or 20 players RP again but I just don't have time to run that big of an RP again without some extra help. Lots of good characters and reimaginings all around. I really hate that I can't bring a few more of you into this.

To everyone who's been accepted, I'll post the OOC link as soon as I can get it posted. Hopefully within the next few nights or tonight if I don't fall asleep too early. The roster will have a total of 7 males and 5 females, and I'll let you guys know which recommended Leaguers are chosen for background status.

Forgot to post this...




Name: James ‘Jimmy’ Olsen
Alias: the Guardian
Age: 24
Personality: boyscout, honest, loyal, stubborn, persistent
Archetype: gadgeteer
Powers:

Conditioning – Jimmy might as well be one of the first parkour enthusiasts in Metropolis and is in peak physical conditioning as far as speed, strength, agility, and reflexes go. Jimmy learned the skills while chasing after Superman on rooftops for the best photos money could buy.

Police Training – Jimmy participated in Metropolis’ Police Academy when he turned 20. He’s proficient with firearms and has decent detective skills.

Shield – Indestructible Kryptonian shield that was a gift from Superman months earlier before his death.


Weaknesses: under his light body armor he’s as human as anyone.

Appearance:

Character Evolution: I’d like to see some interaction with Supergirl.

Altered History: N/A, using a new guy this time around.

Recommended Background Leaguer: Bulleteer w/o helmet, he’s the ‘Tower technician

BRIEF Bio:

Jimmy is the same ginger haired kid he always was, growing up in Metropolis. He was already taking pictures of Superman when he was a senior in high school, the same high school where Lara attended. There was always chemistry between the two whenever Clark and Lois brought Lara around the Daily Planet offices. And it was odd that Jimmy worked with her dad and idolized his alter ego. This went on for several years and Jimmy began wanting more in his life. He wanted to be looked at the same way people looked at Superman. However, being a hero is no easy feat as Olsen would soon find out. At the age of twenty Jimmy decided he wanted to try being a police officer. For whatever reason he didn't make the cut.

After Jimmy flunked out of Police Academy three years ago he became a security guard at the Planet and was more protective of his friends when it seemed like Superman and the original Justice League weren’t around. After Vixen and Robotman were killed, Clark told Jimmy that he was Superman. In some weird Kryptonian gesture of friendship, Superman gave Jimmy his great grandfather of Krypton’s golden shield. Olsen held onto the Kryptonian artifact and couldn't believe that Superman... Clark... would ever give him such a thing. At the most Jimmy expected a watch. As soon as he got it back to his apartment he began parading around like he was some hero in a movie.

Fast forward about eight months… and Superman was killed by Doomsday. About six weeks ago, Jimmy put on a makeshift suit and started patrolling Suicide Slums as Mister Action. After three days he spent a little more cash on new gear. Olsen based a new identity off of a classic comic book character from the 40’s and 50’s by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby. Donning a similarly golden helmet to match the shield, he called himself the Guardian.


Notes:

- Jimmy only has about six weeks experience in the field.
- He’s still not too skilled in hand to hand combat but he’s got excellent aim.
- He’s known Lois and Clark since he began taking pictures of Superman at age 16.
- When he was a senior in high school he met their daughter Lara, who was a freshman.
- Jimmy considered the aliases Mr. Action, Atlas, and the Metropolis Kid.
- Shield is composed of unbreakable Kryptonian metal alloy.
