Updated the OP for those interested.


Greetings,

How do you find the world?  Do you find it to be the best of all possible worlds?  Truly, I have always been apprehensive.  It demands you to offer yourself upon the altar of societal standards and yet receive nothing.  It decrees that you smother your inner voice and accept the monotone ramblings of the masses as truth.  It destroys the best of us so that the rest might feel content in their own weakness.  

I rejected such a world and was rejected by it in turn.

An irredeemable sociopath is what they called me.  The actions I took to fix the world were labeled as criminal.  Yet, how could that be?  How could what I did be wrong if it felt so right? I wasn’t wrong.  This was not a case of good versus evil.  It was a matter of the prisoners judging the free out of jealousy for their status.  It was not me that they hated but rather the fact that they could not be me.  When I realized this I came to pity the sheep of the world.

I wished to free them from the oppression that society had placed upon them by destroying it on its most fundamental plane.  It took years to gather the resources to do it but finally I stood upon the threshold of success and came to the realization that the shackles were of their own making.  They were blind by choice and even if I were to shove the truth before them I could not make the blind see.  So I became their shepherd.  I would guide them out of pity so that they might not fall off the cliff or be eaten by the wolves at night.  

I ruled the world in all but name from the shadows.  Not that it mattered in the end for if you are reading this than I am already dead.

Death was an eventuality that I accepted.  The only true limitation on me was time but even this I could plan for.  This letter was foremost of those preparations.  You see, with my death a vacuum was created.  Which will only lead to a struggle for power as the various pieces of my empire cannibalize each other.  A war shall be fought in the shadowed places of the world that most “decent” folk have long since chosen to ignore.  They won’t be able to for long though.  The scale of this conflict is greater than the powers that be realize.

Which is why I come to you.  You who are free as I once was.  I’ve watched you for some and have come to understand you and in the knowing I have come to feel a certain connection.  Let’s call it affection.  I see the you that could be if only given the right circumstances and so I offer to give you them.

A gauntlet of challenges open to all who are worthy and to those most deserving I shall grant you all that I was.  What you do with it all is hardly my concern.  After all, lest we forget, I am dead and deadmen have no right to judge the living.



INTRODUCTION
You are a person of questionable morals and boundless talent for crime.  You are what most would call a criminal, a villiain, a delinquent, or whatever you prefer. What is certain right now is that you are a person with potential and an opportunity.  A chance that comes but once in a lifetime but where will it lead you? Dangerous times lie ahead for you little villain.  

Be smart.  Be courageous.  Be free.

With all reserves, do you think it could be a good idea or a possibility to actually make it possible for all players to be either a Hero or a Villain and pit them against one another? I'm throwing this out there, but there seem to be more than enough people willing to join this to make it a possibility. I find that RPs with different groups tend to become the ones that are most alive, but I might be wrong !

Just an idea ! ^_^
When can we expect the proper OOC? I got the idea for a character, and I'm wondering if I should start writing it or Nah.

@SimpleWriter Yeah, I agree that it'll be more active, but the amount of work of managing both heroes and villains would be too much for me even with others willing to help co-manage them. Hence me focusing on just villains.

As for the OOC, probably within the day.

I see ! That's perfectly fine. If you need a full time Co-Gm, I'm willing to help you with things. This looks promising. I'm sure others would as well, but I'm just putting it out there. Lots of free time on my hands. ;P

@SimpleWriter Most seem fine to me; my only concern would be Kaori's wealth. I'm leaning towards avoiding such background, but it'll probably depend on the nature of her wealth. How rich she actually is, what kind of company did she inherit, and the like. As for her quirk, I'll reply to your PM.

I see one or two ways to work around that. She can either be rich enough to finance the crime organisation she'll be a part of. Or, what I had in mind, since she's still young she doesn't actually have control of the companies which are being managed for her. She have access to a certain % of it?

Either way, I am not a power player and I didn't think of using it all that much. Mostly, it was some reason to have a big House and to explain how she got her suit made.

@SimpleWriter Hmmm. The former is too much of a convenience from an RP standpoint, so I'd prefer the latter if you really want her to have some wealth to back her up. Still curious on what are these "companies" she'll supposedly inherit.

For the suit, family could have companies that focus on hero-based tech, so she'd have access to such things or at least have parents that might think along the lines of "Man, our daughter's got it hard. Society is rejecting her and shit. Maybe we could make her a suit that'll help her become a hero or at least someone who can co-exist with others without killing them."

Not saying that you would powerplay, just don't want it to be a possibility. Its kinda like a guy asking for superman-level strength but promises to only use a portion of it and not go full superman. Even if I could trust the guy, I'd prefer to avoid such a scenario.

CS is all set. Background's kinda meh, but I figure I can flesh it out as the narrative progresses.



@SimpleWriter And just to be unoriginal, I'm gonna throw in some theme music.

@Nerdy Reference My English is pretty good, but I might some times not understand the meaning of certain expressions very well. Did you say that because you say you are copying me, or did you say that because you are calling me un-original because I put a Theme song on my CS? :P

So !

@Geyter I completely overhauled Kaori's background and got rid of the problem regarding the Wealth - it's not there anymore. I also modified her Aspiration to something that fits better. I didn't like what I wrote before, and I think I prefer this as it's more 'Logic'.

@SimpleWriter I definitely like this background way better. And even though wealthy, her resources would now be finite. You're as good as accepted. I'll just take a look at that PM first.

I'll try and get my villain posted tonight just so it's ready to go; I've just got a few changes to make the her backstory and Quirk to make first.

@Geyter an update on the progress of the OOC?

@Nerdy Reference I had realized I didn't have time to read your CS, and I just did. God. xD
It's very possible that he and Kaori will dislike one another very much, so many conflicting points they are almost opposites in everything. XD

Here's my villain. I still need to write up the rest of her Quirk details and I might expand on her background a bit but here's the one-eyed hag of Russia.

Let me know if she's too much.
