[OOC] The League - Superhero Sci Fi and Urban Fantasy RP

[An Outsider]

Aye, say something like the League has been relatively quiet since their formation, then there's another bust of super crime requiring our deployment.

A good idea, this time we can skip past the introductory phase and dive right into the action. Perhaps the League has just been cleaning up small-time crime but now Legion is becoming a larger and more overt presence, gang violence between the Outfit and Legion is exploding and the League has to bring peace back to the streets. From there we can keep progressing to other threats and conflicts. I might even borrow a few of Poly's rogues to integrate into the Legion arc.

[An Outsider]

I'm actually just in the process of writing up a few more Rogues myself, starting with The Iron Lady.

I was thinking Volt could have pulled in Silvertongue to assist Pariah with finding out more about Legion, since our resident owl-themed detective is Awol. And I'd like to see what Pariah would make of the hacker!

[MrDidact]

That could certainly work. Perhaps this time around we can emphasize that players can have PCs that can be in support roles as well as field roles, it saves on me having to constantly make new NPCs :P Pariah's reactions towards basically anyone he works with, who aren't a close personal friend run the gamut from intense disapproval to grudging respect.

Dragan Music and The Witchfinder General can probably work pretty well with the Legion/Outfit Arc, since one side involves a vanilla criminal enterprise and the other involves a super-criminal gang that has some pretty strong black magic vibes.

[An Outsider]

So his response to everyone is intense disapproval to grudging respect then.

That's The Iron Ladies CS up in the Rogues, Dr Whitechapple next I think

[MrDidact]

Besides Zenith, Olympia, and a few others, basically :P

I like that backstory enough tragedy to make me sympathize but she is still a villain. The only thing is the incident where she fought St. George with Volt and killed some of his men. In this universe not every hero has a no-kill code and in that case I believe the death of George's men was justifiable in the eyes of the law as self-defense or defense of others. Unless she executed someone in cold blood or put a civilian in danger she should have been fine. Unless she overreacted and panicked before running away which is plausible.

[An Outsider]

I'll change it to she was that out of control that she injured bystanders too then.

When she came back she definitely harmed innocents though.

Feel free to keep posting for now, the new IC probably won't go up until later tonight or tomorrow morning and even then we won't start the new thread until I get at least three or four more players. I also need a good non-cliche name for the subtitle :P

[An Outsider]

Dawn of Justice!

Wait. . . That's taken? And it's a terrible name, for a Rp or a major blockbuster movie?

Dang.

[Polyphemus]

League 2: Electric Boogaloo

[MrDidact]

Meh, just gonna call it First Blood and call it good.

[TheBiddz]

I think thats a good idea too. I'd hate for this to grind out to a close right when I get into it

I think Dawn of Justice is a great name, it hints at the Justice League

[MrDidact]

It's neither particularly great or bad.

I do want that Comic-Con teaser to come out though.

[An Outsider]

Just waiting for Yog to post now.

[Yog Sothoth]

i posted. Also I wrote up some names for Hot Rod's villains in the rogues gallery and I will write up their powers and bios later

[MrDidact]

Want your thoughts on this, should I make a new CS thread or keep the old one?

[Polyphemus]

New one. Easier to see who's active, less intimidating to the newcomers.
