Suzy, I’m sorry you have to find out this way. I’m leaving. I won’t turn a blind eye while he carries out his plan. It’s wrong. I think you know it’s wrong too, but I don’t blame you for staying.

I probably won’t make it out of this alive. It’s likely that, in going against him, he will eventually find me and end me. But I just wanted you to know, even if you hate me now, I…

From the first day, I’ve loved you.

Yours,
Takeda

Welcome to Tenebrae, a city known for its pier-side Ferris wheel, coastal waters, and sprawling metropolitan centre filled from edge to edge with luxurious skyscrapers. The weather is mainly rain, overcast, and moderate temperatures.

A once-bustling city with a lively night-life, the streets have grown eerily quiet in the light of foreboding news. The government’s ill-equipped containment of criminals with superhuman powers has made the streets unsafe for those foolish enough to stay out past sunset. Since the new legislation has prohibited the use of superpowers, those with even a hint of power-hunger in them have brashly gone toe-to-toe with the police in charge of enforcing the law, earning notoriety and nicknames fitting for supervillains.

With the Chief of Police chewing his fingernails to the bone on ways to better protect the citizens, some have broken the law in order to uphold it. Normal people on face-value, but taking to the streets as superpowered vigilantes at night. Many criminals have found themselves handcuffed to light posts outside the commissioner’s office, and many more battle it out in great, superpowered fights to stop the vigilante resistance. Gaining their own notoriety, the vigilantes have sparked hope in the hearts of the city, admired as superheroes.

Now, with a new threat on the rise, the hope that briefly sparked may be crushed again.

The shadows are coming to petition their heroes.

The king waits in the calm before the dark storm.









Please reply in this OOC or PM me, and I will send you a copy of the CS for creating your character.

Rules (the standard stuff):
- Please post at least once a week, and at least 3-4 paragraphs
- Please refrain from auto-hitting
- Adding to the plot is recommended, please PM any plot/character ideas
- Please enjoy a lot and have fun

We've got a really nice reverse going on at the moment. I'll be playing the good guy while two hardened villains get to earn some extra style points. (Normally it's the other way around, huh?)

I'll create some PC and NPC sheets here tomorrow, and have an IC post up for us in the next 3-5 days.

We're still open for business, but there's no fun in boiling a pot of coffee and waiting until it gets cold to drink it. So we will start the game meanwhile.

@Shu,@Lady Seraphina, do you think your characters are the type to get along?

@Shu What do you say? You wanna be friends? Or grudging allies?

Hmmmm... grudging allies who will betray each other when the pot of gold is in sight. What do you think?

I don't know that gold is what Phantasm is after but she'll definitely throw you under the bus if it furthers her ends.

Insightful! Our suicide squad may benefit from some team-building exercises but currently won't work together unless absolutely necessary. This kind of dynamic is exactly what makes villains so fun.

I'm sure after Phantasm and Scarlet Shadow see how useful the other is, they may say different later on. Especially if the obstacles they face require each other.

SS is pretty self-serving. She’s not the type to be illicitly relied on even grudgingly.

@Shu It's gotta be pretty lonely at the top though, huh?

I'm still working on character sheets, it's proving a bit more difficult to make someone that I hope will be a great suit for Phantasm and Scarlet Shadow. But we are still on schedule for the first IC post in 1-2 days.

@Lady Seraphina Such memes! So great!

@Blizz Thanks for the interest, I have sent a CS to your PM. What kind of character are you thinking of? I am looking for a hero to counter our villains, or did you want to villain it up as well?

A former villain who is in the middle of a redemption arc who’s not so much here to prove she’s the hero, but more to prove to herself she’s not the villain. She’s a vigilante who is out to make up for stuff she did in the past, hand over fist or fist over gun.



Imagine a mashup between sage mode from Naruto and the golden gun from Destiny 2

@Blizz The redemption arc idea sounds great. Nice Naruto reference! I’ll be happy to review the CS tonight.



Apologies on the short delay, IC will be up in 12-14 hours. So excited now that we’re four people strong.

Hey! Just in case you would like a reference to what locations are mentioned in the IC, here is a link to the crime map of Chicago, I mean Tenebrae, split up by neighbourhood.

I'm so excited to get started.

@Estylwen

Have you considered making a discord server where we can all talk abt the rp and our character interactions easier? I’m asking because most rps I’ve been in have one.
