Hey, there. Would it be ok if I created a genderbent version of Jinx from the Teen Titans?

Edit: CS application

@CaptainManbeard Thank you! I just finished catching up with the IC thread! Is there something you would like me to change in Jinx’s CS? Or could I post it in the CHAR section?

Hey, just letting you know that I'm not going to be on the site for about a week. I'm going on a short trip, my first one in forever, across my province to attend a friend's wedding. While I'm coming back Tuesday night, I realistically won't be online until Wednesday, at which time I plan to post as Steel and the Ray, as we could just say that they were late to arrive at the tenth anniversary event.

The only real issue is the mention of connections to the Titans as if they are already a team. This RP starts off with sort of an origin story about how the sidekicks first become the Teen Titans, so they haven't actually existed yet under that name at the start of the RP. But everything else is golden! Glad to have you on board!

No problem! I doubt the story will jump too far ahead by then since everyone is still getting settled and all. I imagine we'll indulge in a few back and forth posts to get to know the flow of our characters before we jump into combat anyway.

@Eviledd1984 Looks good, but as mentioned in the initial interest post, Kryptonite in this continuity was engineered by the Apokkians. They also caused the sun Rao to expand into a red giant and then explode, which also destroyed Krypton and shattered the planet.

I realize I forgot to directly specify in the opening post, but for anyone wondering, your characters should indeed show up in their superhero attire unless they were planning to attend as their civilian identities. I introduced all my characters using their hero alias instead of real names in the intro post, but I never actually said they were wearing their super suits. My bad, lol.

Oh, and for anyone curious, here is the database I had created waaaaaay back in 2005 for the very first Teen Titans RP I had ever done. This only shows the characters who joined during the initial story arc, but we eventually went on to have like 14 Titans on the team or something. It's a shame I stopped updating this site once the RP really took off, but it's still fun to go back and look at it XD.

Room for ine more maybe? I have a couple of ideas. Maybe Sideways or Manchester Black? I'm afraid I'm not great at graphics.

Sure! Would you mind elaborating on your ideas?

While Rao didn't technically go supernova, that's fine, I'm not gonna harp on it. Though I did want to ask - you mentioned her waking up at the same time as the other Kryptonians, which means she has now been awake for at least several years since those pods were found in the cleanup after the Reach invasion, which was in the early days of the Justice League. I never gave an exact date for the Reach Invasion's end, but it started ten years ago, which is what caused the League to first form. I kept it vague to allow more freedom in character creation and backstories, but even if the invasion and subsequent war lasted for three years, that still means Kara woke up seven years ago. Is that what you were intending?

I see my apologies, I have changed it so she has woken up only recently. Or if you like she can wake up later on in the RP and be introduced to the others?

Either one is fine. If you want to have her from the start, we can go with what I had suggested in the other thread, and say that while her pod was found at the same time as the other Kryptonians, the malfunction in her cryogenic stasis system was far worse and it took a few years before it was safe to awaken her. You could say now she's been awake for a few months and has been training with Clark, Conner, and Jon. To help you find a way to introduce her in the IC thread, you could say she was flying to the Hall with Conner and Jon but got distracted by something and said she'd be there in a bit and they continued on without her. That would explain why she enters the scene a little after them. Like, because she's still new to observing Earth, maybe she saw a cool garden with pretty flowers on the way and wanted to stop and smell them or something.

Mmm I can go with her pod been open for a few months, and her trying to adjust to life on earth. And later joining the others at the Hall. I can even play out Beast Boy trying to hit on her and failing miserably.

So, I have a question for you guys. It was brought to my attention in past RPs that I put too much detail into my posts and made them too long, so this time around, in the hopes of not scaring anyone off, I sort of did the bare minimum for details in my intro post. But what do you all think? Would you prefer more detail in my posts? To give you a couple examples, here are two intro posts from past RPs where I put in a looooot of detail and they got suuuuper long:

@CaptainManbeard I like both. Personally, as the GM I feel like you should have a little bit more detail to let the rest of know what is going and where the RP is going. I try to match in detail and my normal post length is usually four paragraphs, seven or more if I’m really into it.

Also, heads up this is one the first group RPs I’ve done in like seven years so please let me know if I do things out of order or do something wrong. ☺️
