And whilst we're talking about motivations... I'm looking to make some comics concepts which I hate right to the core of my very soul - such as Frenchie's "Bloodline"/Knight's Templar plotline work in a way that is satisfactory to me.

Challenge accepted...

I plan to fly around space and have Nova shoot people with beams of energy out of his hands.

Hes gonna fly around rescuing people, burning himself out with the current space issues going on and the current issues facing the Corps

I want to write more of a crime drama with Daredevil than I've done in the past. I've dabbled a bit in that world with Bats, but always with the goal of getting to facing off against the next supervillain. Rewatching some episodes of the Netflix series, I was reminded of why I love that show so much - it's not about DD vs. The Kingpin, necessarily, so much as it's about an expansive world that Fisk cultivates. The Russians and the Irish, Madame Gao, Punisher, and eventually The Hand and Fisk's inner network. You get a lot of great torment of Matt's soul in between the hallway fights, so it's all stuff that I want to do my own take on.

Plus, Daredevil was one of my earliest big RPG characters. It's been quite a few years since I played him and I've grown alot since, so I've always wanted to go back and revisit him without the handicap of my past limitations. Hell, @Byrd Man and I became friends because we were doing an interaction as Daredevil and Urich.

@Retired what do the sentinels look like? I’m still working on a CS but I might drop it and make a Iron Giant-esque Sentinel character (I think he’s called Justin’s Sentinel or something)


There are no giant robot sentinels. The drones look like... drones. They're manually controlled with very limited directives that can be followed. As of the start of the RP, the sentinels are nothing like what we're familiar with in the comics.

Any sentinel-based app is going to be a near-impossible sell, if I'm honest.

Honestly, I can't wait for Charles and Erik to uncover the true intent of the Sentinel Program, the new Brotherhood, and President Kelly. While, of course, dealing with the school itself and all of the anti-mutant rhetoric. I am interested in what @Bounce brings to the table with his character. And lowkey hope that someone writes the X-Men at some point in the future.

Ah gotcha. Sorry when I read they were as big as jets and all that I was assuming robots as big as jets. No sweat off my back.

First up is a short story that will just frame why each of the kids (Toro, Fauna, Carter, and Rubbermaid to start) are at the Institute. In the case of Fauna, the story is going to be that the Texas governor is among several Wideawake America Movement associated politicians bussing mutants to so-called "Sanctuary Cities" and Fauna was literally put on a bus by his family to get rid of him. (Obviously this is very close to the nose for real-life politics and if @Retired or anyone would like me to nix that, just let me know). Apart from establishing the cast, the story will focus on the kids' belief that the X-Mansion is haunted.

The second story will be a field trip, where the kids travel to recruit Abigail for the Institute, owing to her town in Scotland being accepting of her and it viewed as a safe experience. If there's no issue with it, I may make use of Moira MacTaggart and Muir Island for the story, introducing Plague (the Pestilence horseman from the Fall of the Mutants storyline) as an antagonist.

Third up will be a trip to Cosco when delivery services to the Institute are temporarily suspended due to political backlash over companies outted on social media for supporting mutants (obviously @Mao Mao can turn this off), leading to the discovery of some Morlocks and introducing the kids to Anole, who should be my final new cast member for the team, and will use either Purifiers or Friends of Humanity as the antagonist.

On the far horizon, I want to do something with Carter and the Shadow King (the plot in the comics that was dropped along with the character of Carter when the writer departed the series), but I'd probably need another telepath along for that ride.

And that's all the Toro that's fit to bounce.

I just wanted to add that I will also be doing the same for Ronin so the character is free to use but I will be editing out what I came up with.

I have some things that came up that I need to take care of since I'm finishing up my last semester of school.


Oh, I was just about to say you were accepted. If you find more free time down the road and want to apply again, we'll be happy to have you.

In the case of Fauna, the story is going to be that the Texas governor is among several Wideawake America Movement associated politicians bussing mutants to so-called "Sanctuary Cities" and Fauna was literally put on a bus by his family to get rid of him. (Obviously this is very close to the nose for real-life politics and if @Retired or anyone would like me to nix that, just let me know).


Real-world parallels are heavily encouraged. It's the best way to make a world feel natural and living.

Later today. IC got delayed by a couple of days due to my fever, which I'm happy to say I'm completely over now.

I just try to have rough plans pre-IC solely because whenever I start writing the characters they decide to do their own thang

Thank you, everyone, for your patience. I know some of you have been waiting since the interest check first went up, but the time is now.

The IC is open, and the first season of Age of Marvels has begun.


Enjoy.

The first mini-event will go live this coming week, and I intend to have at least one active every two weeks or so after that.

A quick rundown of the NYC organized crime scene:

As has been stated multiple times, the Maggia has been the dominant force for a century. They have multiple families within the Maggia, all of whom fell under the control of Silvermane. With his death, the heads of these families are scrambling for control behind one anothers' backs, while also trying to strategize as a whole how to confront the growing vigilante problem in their city. They have utilized very classic means in their operations throughout the years, and have prior to the start of the RP not entered into the superhuman arms race.

The Tinkerer is a black market provider of highly advanced technology. He is infamous among the underground and is an incredibly paranoid individual who ensures the location of his organization is never revealed. While he has in the past been seemingly been in the game only for the money, he has begun to make moves indicating his intentions to play a more commanding role in the NYC underbelly.

The Big Man. An unknown entity and newcomer who has only entered the scene following the death of Silvermane. The Big Man works in the shadows, never revealing their identity. They have spent the last month organizing the various street gangs and small-time criminals under his singular leadership with surprising speed and success.

The Kingpin. I'm not declaring any canon for Fisk, as I'm choosing to leave that entirely in the hands of those who intend to NPC him. However, he's obviously going to be a big player in the coming NYC gang war.

@Retired Would it be okay if I incorporate The Big Man into Domino's history. Not actually him, obviously, but his connection to streeg gangs and small time criminals?
