Maybe we'll get one with the new recruitment drive.

He or She-Hulk. Or both of them combined


A recruitment drive might be more successful if we actually stated the characters we were hoping to find so we're not burdened with a bunch of people coming in an asking if they can play Batman or Spider-Man.

To be fair, most of them have non-public bounties on their heads.


Bailey finding out that The Fates did a little bit of tomfoolery and wove him back into existence specifically with a government bounty on his head.

Maybe. Though of course, we want people to feel free to take up any characters they want as long as they're no other players taking those roles.

Maybe it would be better to have a list of characters that are already taken and then one of some suggested characters?

And maybe figure out things regarding characters we love to have around and want to keep the in-universe lore of, but don't seem like they're going to anywhere. For instance, if Supermaxx doesn't come back for him, I would still want his take on Wally West to be part of the game, mostly due to how much care was put into his background and how it connects with Sep's previous Flash!Iris. Then also Bounce's Aquaman just in case she's able to come back.

You get into an awkward position with all the characters already taken, then you have all the IC characters introduced via player supporting casts. And then to cherry pick what we want to remain canon from being dropped it gets really overwhelming for a new player.

And I'm speaking as someone who has been trying to get a new player in the door.

Long story short, to do a recruiting drive properly, you're either going to need to give some guidance, whether by documenting all characters currently in use, or give concession in that new players are going to need freedom to break from previous posts by dropped players.

If that last idea rubs you the wrong way, then you need to seriously consider if the game needs a recruiting drive.

You're right.

We do need to give new players the freedom to break from dropped players' posts. Especially if they didn't actually interact with other characters, but even if they have interacted with other characters.

@Half Pint and I will see what characters are still in use after the gleaning and make sure the active character list is completely up to date.

Then as for everyone else, what characters would you like to see new players potentially take up within Worlds Collide?

I did mention a few days ago I might passively use Matt Murdock as I build the Emma Frost story out but this isn't a deal breaker for me especially if someone wants to use him as a main character.

I just think he's hot, tbh and that was why. But also I would have use for him as Matt, not really as Daredevil.

I know I don't really get the say in it, but unless it's Maxx or someone I know rather nobody take on THAT version of Wally with ties to my Iris.

Would be better if they started fresh as their own Flash™️

You definitely get a say since it's based off your Iris.

We'll just accept that there'll be a new Flash unless you or someone you give the go ahead to play that Wally has the go ahead to play them.

Well, i have very little immediate plans for Black Adam beyond "Probably gonna have a punch-up at some point" But i did reference him existing, so definitely advertise for someone to play Black Adam since he's a popular one.

That being said, if @Archangel89 isn't interested in playing Green Lantern anymore, i may throw my hat in the ring for my second character. I was very much enjoying the story i was doing this time last year and still could definitely continue that one.

Sounds like it's time for Colonel Major Jordan to make a comeback

Just an FYI too, I will make every effort to get an Emma post done tomorrow, however after that I'll be offline probably for the rest of the week/weekend.

I've got a hectic weekend (movie/spa/concert/D&D). I've been having some absolute Mega Anxiety this week too, which can probably explain The Horrors™ of my last post. So, a bit of a touch grass/digital detox weekend will do me some good haha.

Understood. We'd love to see Emma, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Take care of yourself.

Today was the cut off for my messages to players, so I plan to update the character roster later today when I get a minute. Being that my idea behind this game was almost total player freedom I'm not crazy about the idea of telling people who we'd prefer they play.

I don't actually expect we'll get many more people from the recruitment drive than who we have now, but I just wanted to give notice to anyone who's interested, but perhaps seen the high post count and felt like they couldn't apply the opportunity to apply.

I also believe it couldn't harm the roleplay, it's always nice to have some new ideas and stories floating around.

Loki appeared out a back chamber while Thor spoke, whispering into the All-Fathers ear. Thor saw a spark of anger in Odins' one green eye. -And so you deigned to kill him? Rather than bring the Mortal Before me to answer questions. You are a foolish whelp."

Loki at this moment decided to speak. "In Thor's defense father, with the rage and stupor that the beast was in it was unlikely that it gave him much of a choice."

Odin turned his adoptive son. A look of scorn on his face. "Do not jump to his aid so readily- He turned his face back to his son. "Over one thousand years of life and yet he still acts as if he is a child. Acting with his fists first rather than thought. The Mortal could no more kill you than any other mortal could, you are a vain-

Thor stood up, a low rumble of thunder could be heard outside the walls of the palace. "-and you are a fool and a coward!" Frejya moved as if to speak but Odin raised his hand in her direction.

"Nay. Stay your tongue wife. Let me hear what the boy has to say about the world of men."


I was looking through some old work for raisins and was reminded by how much of a Bastard my interpretation of Odin was.

Honestly, if I didn't have my hands full with the Four and Andrew I'd be doing a Guy Gardner application right now, going from Green to Red Lantern.
