[@Architect] You're one of us Jace and always will be, good to have you. 

[@Chev] Thank you for throwing your hat in. You don't need to write essays for your posts, the important thing is depth of material not length. 

[@Sep] Kingdom Come is one of my favorite superhero stories and I've always loved the art style. You can expect a lot of inspiration from it in the RP. It's great to have you on-board. 

[@Stormflyx][@DJAtomika] I welcome you both to the club! To address both of your questions, players will have options in the RP. 

You can play an existing character while modifying them to fit the setting and timeline, such as an old Oliver Queen or an adult Billy Batson. This version of DC is going to draw elements from all the disparate DC properties, so you can have characters inspired by the Flashpoint story, Kingdom Come, Batman: Beyond or any number of alternate timelines existing in this world. I don't know a ton about the Wildstorm universe but those characters could also show up here if they fit. 

You can also make up a legacy character such as creating a child or grandchild of say Mr. Terrific and playing as them. You can create an OC who still has strong connections to existing lore, such as an original Atlantean or Green Lantern. Or you can make up a completely original character who fits in the setting. And you can play multiple characters. 

And in case anybody had this concern, canon characters and other NPCs may be important parts of the narrative but PCs will have plenty of agency and it'll be their choices and their successes or failures that have the greatest impact on the world state, the fate of other characters, and the storyline as a whole. To use books as an analogy, the NPCs will affect the plot and character dynamics because of their presence and their actions. But the PCs will be the PoV characters who actually drive everything forward and have the most impact because of their agency. I'm also a big fan of collaborating with players on every level of the RP, so you can always come to me with ideas for plotlines, lore, and NPCs as well. 

Since this has gotten a lot of traction, I'm going to edit a link to the Discord in the OP. Everyone should feel free to join. 

I'm really looking forward to seeing what concepts people come up with and exchanging ideas.
