But doesn't that restrict future players from applying for a big title character in a way that they want? If they come in after an NPC sheet was accepted, they'd have to conform to that sheet. If someone nine days from now wants to play Wally West as the Flash and as part of their backstory Barry Allen died in an incident decades ago, that would conflict with the already accepted NPC sheet of a modern-day Barry. 

I get what the idea is behind this, I just personally see it bogging things down more than anything else. But that's just me.

I mean you're not entirely wrong, and I get it. 

However, in this history of these games there has rarely been interest to make a sheet once the IC gets going (with the exception of people changing character) and if they are interested this is why I'm trying to strip them down to very very base bone concepts.

I just feel like in these games we often tie our own hands behind our backs for potentially cool stories and interactions for people that may not even join. 

I'm also not intending this to become the norm or for lots of people to do this. There's every chance that Flash and Aquaman will be the only two NPCs in this category.

Again if people are against this idea, let me know.
