[quote=@Half Pint]Original Characters: Original characters are allowed for this roleplay, however with the stipulation that these characters should be ones that would slot neatly into the Marvel or DC universes.[/quote]

Will original characters be more heavily scrutinized than re-imagined canons? And how much say does a player have over one submitting an OC if they're borrowing from 'shared continuity'? If an original character is simply a blatant expy of an existing one, would a player be encouraged to simply reimagine the canon one?

Sort of just trying to figure out if OCs take the same priority as reimagined canons or if canons are still the goal of the game. 

Edit: Also how much transparency are you looking for in terms of 'dibs' on villains or supporting cast members?
