I'm interested in this and the Abandoned Hope universe. I've just submitted a character sheet for X-Men Cosmic Crusades, but I would mind joining this as well.

@Martian would be chuffed to have you! I can give you discord access to the discord server if you’d like now, so you can ask questions & whatnot

@Nallore no rush! I’m anticipating the first post of the IC to go up mid to late January

This looks interesting too! Dang....I am in a decent amount of RPs and now I don't know if I want to join this, or Blue's. If I had to pick I am leaning more towards this as it is a new one whereas Blue's (though incredible and respectable) seems to be long-standing and, if I am being honest, I am somewhat intimidated in joining an RP that has been going on for a bit.

I am keeping an eye on this, for sure though.

Hello there. This looks promising, but I've got a couple of questions:

- How much of the expanded lore would I need to catch up on? Or will the canon MCU stuff be enough to understand?
- Would you be open to 'Ultron done right better' kind of character, or should I write it more as just a regular armor person? (Have examples to show of how I done the former)

I can wait on the discord for know. But I do have an idea for a character idea if you would like to hear. Basically he’s the illegitimate son of a god (I haven’t decided on which one), who ended up on Earth, specifically Canada, as an orphan. He would then be adopted from an orphanage for kids with superpowers by the hero Northstar and his husband. As he got older his parents realized that he would need help mastering his powers, and since there was no hero school in Canada, he would be sent to Avengers Academy.

@PatientBean No worries fam! :) If it sways your opinion at all, this RP is going to be more school centric than Blue's X-Men RP. The characters are teenagers here, whereas in X-Men they're in their 20s. The X-Men also are more established superheroes and have fought some huge villains, whereas these kids are brand new.

@Forsythe Hey there! You basically don't need to know any lore - anything that is important will be explained in one of my IC posts. The basic vibe of the setting for this RP is that we're in the near future, there's now tons of schools for superheroes, and the Avengers have gone global. Anything more specific than that, you honestly don't need to know. Canon MCU stuff should be enough to get you by, and I'll let you know if anything needs a tweak!

I'm fine with you doing a robot sort of character! :)

@Martian Oh I love Northstar! He and Kyle just adopted a kid in the comics together too, it was very sweet. I chatted with my co-GM and we like the concept, but think that it could be simplified - i.e., either he's the adopted kid of Northstar & Kyle and he has powers, or he is a demigod kid of a god.

I have a new version of the character idea. Basically he would be a twist on the whole Changeling myth, where a human child is replaced with a monster to be raised by humans. But in this case the monster would be a Dire Wraith, a shape shifting alien. The infant Wraith would be sent to Earth to grow up into a world leader, but something went wrong and he had no memory of being a Dire Wraith. He would be brought up in a home for super powered orphans, my character would be believed to be a mutant. He would then be adopted by Northstar and his husband, before training at Avengers Academy.

But if the Northstar adoption idea doesn’t work, I did come up with original parents for my character.

I think I'll apply to this one. I kind of like the idea of the school aspect with young heroes. I should have a sheet up sometime this week.

@Martian I think for me, it feels somewhat like two different concepts? Like, I think the dire wraith changeling idea is cool, but I don't see the reason why that kid should be adopted by Kyle and JP. (So sorry this is being a bit pedantic) - I think if you want a kid of Kyle and JP, then they can be a mutant - or if you want the dire wraith or the demigod, then they shouldn't have Kyle + JP as parents.

@PatientBean Cool, we're excited to have you!

@Nallore Will look them over after work!

WIP so far.
- I really don't like to use faceclaims. Too restrictive/impossible to find a fit for what you have in mind. Did the best I could with googling random images.
- Stark family. Let me know if it is a nogo.
- Had to kinda expand the power section of the sheet because robot.
- Used Abbr tags in some places to indicate the truth behind the coverup persona. They don't work for mobile but I don't have a better idea on how to do this without making the sheet cluttered.
- To be done: History -> Personality.

@Forsythe Looked at this quickly, and I think the main sticking point here does come down to the Stark Family connection. I think with the conceit that she's a better Ultron, that she was a robot made by a famous genius, that she'd be better suited for the Pyms. (We follow the comics lore more closely here with Ultron, having him be made by Henry Pym). (Another note on the Stark thing - we have a pre-existing character in this RP'verse who is Tony's kid, so by this RP Tony has grandchildren, so I think the lone legacy of Stark I don't think would work as effectively for Antonia as it might have otherwise).

For the faceclaim - if you can only find one image you like that's good enough! Can even be a drawing.

You will record your thoughts and opinions on other characters. There are no PC relationship requirements to begin with, however it is likely that some of your characters grew up seeing each other fairly often.

If you are playing a legacy, you are required to include a relation for their parent/relative - (i.e., if Guin Stark were in this RP, she would need to have a relation section for Tony).

Fair point. I am not that familiar with the Pym family (mostly Henry as he is portrayed in the Avengers academy comic), but I know a bit about the comic Ultron, I think I can work with the comic lore well enough. The original iteration of this character was based on Ultron-15 aafter all :) (And Sentinels and looking at the mostly mutant lineup... Fun times ahead when that bubble bursts :D)

Anything in the expanded lore worth mentioning? Would she have any existing Pym sibs etc.?

@Forsythe No worries! I'm not a Pym family expert either lol. The Pym family lore pretty much matches the MCU, with the exception that we restored Pym as Ultron's creator. So Pym has a kid, Hope, and she's in a relationship with Scott Lang who has a daughter, Cassie (Cassie will be an NPC in AA). So if anything, she has something akin to a niece. Janet is around, was rescued from the quantum realm. We did a soft redo of his motivations for making Ultron, where in the lore, he makes Ultron to try to make something that could travel to the quantum realm and retrieve Janet (+ some other PCs who had gotten trapped there).

TLDR - Pym has his MCU family, he made Ultron to rescue Janet from the Quantum Realm and it backfired on him.

EDIT - He also basically made Vision in this reality as well, since the Age of Ultron was done with the time travel nonsense following comics lore rather than movie lore. So Vision would be a sibling.

@Nallore let me know when you've made these edits and I'll confirm it looks good

Diana -
  • Age is off - she would be 16 at the start of the RP, and have her 17th birthday coming up in a month or so
  • Coursework needs to go in the correct spot of the CS - should be in between Combat Skills and Medical Issues/Injuries
  • Under family, her brother's surname is actually Novikov (Novikova is the feminine surname, he takes the masculine one)
  • Character quote?


Mads -
  • Age is off - she would be 15 at the start of the RP, going on 16 that November.
  • Does Mads not carry a backpack or a purse with her? It's fine if she doesn't, just odd that she shows up w/ nothing to class lol
  • In the history, you don't really answer how she discovered her powers? Like, you give the age and how it's normal in the family, but don't really describe it beyond that
  • Grimoire looks good to me!


@Trainerblue192 let me know when you've made these edits and I'll confirm it looks good

Dorian -
  • Missing pronouns - should be listed between Birth Place & Gender
  • I think knowing all 4 of those languages is a lot, so I'd like for you to remove one - he can always learn a new language in the future. Maybe remove Sanskrit and change the 3 years of Sanskrit skill to say 'basic Sanskrit' - or you could do something similar with Latin. Or change the Korean to be a skill for purely conversational Korean? Idk. But something lol.
  • Can you add descriptions on what Tag You're It and Peek A Boo mean?
  • Anything in his backpack?
  • The magic sword - what does it... do? lol
  • Maybe give him more stuff for Twitch Streaming equipment wise? You've got tons of room to put things in his dorm room!
  • Theme song was switched over to Favorite Song, so if that's the same then just replace the label - if not, what's his favorite song?


@Achronum
Danny - these are basically all suggestions / minor things, so once you make any edits, go ahead and move him over!

  • This doesn't even really need an edit, but basically bc of his birthday, for him to be the same grade as Dorian it means that Casper and James waited a little longer to put him into school (i.e., his July birthday meant he could've been a grade above Dorian, making him a senior, but it's not unusual for parents to decide to have their July kiddo get an extra year at home before starting to help them be ready / more mature). And like, it makes sense to me that James and Casper would do that lol.
  • Could you put a description of Tag You're It next to the skill?
  • Has he been diagnosed with ADHD? If so, does he have ADHD meds on him / in his dorm?
  • No need to make an edit here, but maybe he has some kitchen supplies in his dorm room - like an illegal toaster oven or something :P
