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

[Rin]

If it means anything, one of the spells my character has is going to be a... Kind of teleportation spell, I guess? But it's a bit weird, since it's based slightly on the Hounds of Tindalos. XD

Sorry it's taking so long, really. Just having trouble trying to figure things out just right. Although I kind of need to ask if it's okay for her to operate out of Arkham, Massachusetts and be affiliated with the Miskatonic University? I know that's probably taking the whole Lovecraft theme a little too far, but it just seemed to make sense for the character. ^^;

[An Outsider]

I've added a small piece to my CS, just mentioning that he has worked with Dblade26's character Strix in the past.

[MrDidact]

Rin, that would be somewhat odd haha. I have to admit however that my knowledge of the Cthulhu Mythos is somewhat limited. I'll just say that I'd have to see how it fits in a sheet before I make any judgments. Take your time.

BlackSam, as long as Dblade is fine with that and the change is nothing major it's all good.

And we're just a few short of a dozen accepted players :)

[Dead Cruiser]

I have some ideas for a Lovecraftian villain for later in the story. I'd be willing to help you work out some ideas if you wanted.

[MrDidact]

Ok, PM with your thoughts.

[Dead Cruiser]

Ah, well, I meant to direct that to Rin. I'll discuss my later ideas once we get the ball rolling.

[MatParker1711]

I have an idea for a Circus of Crime rip off

[VitaVitaAR]

@MrDidact: Maestro isn't some mastermind even if she's very intelligent and able to orchestrate her crimes as "performances" and still get away with them, I didn't expect she'd be a main villain even if she's a major villain for Blast Girl. ^^;

I was just kind of trying to think of a major villain for her and all.

Also weaponized classical music is amazing.

Okays, eheh. Hopefully she'll be done by the end of the weekend at most, but we'll see. If it means anything, I'll probably not be completely faithful to the mythos, since this is a superhero RP and superheroes tend to excel at punching out Cthulus, after all. XD But we'll see how things turn out.

Once I get things sorted out a bit more than I have right now, I'll see if we can work stuff out. It would probably be better than my immediate ideas for a Lovecraftian villain at the very least, since "literally Nyarlathotep" is the most workable of these ideas and... For one thing that would be far too major and I'd be worried that it would be seen as some kind of hijack so yeah. XD

[Dead Cruiser]

My villain idea was actually... remarkably similar. Though with a fair amount of Mummy: The Curse and Saya no Uta mixed in for variety.

Are you by any chance familiar with Deus Machina Demonbane?

[Rin]

I am of the opinion that it has the greatest potrayal of Herbert West ever, for one thing. XD

Really need to check out Saya no Uta at some point, though, especially seeing how much I love Gen's other works... And I'm not surprised at the mention of MtC, since i noticed quite a lot of WoD influence in your character. Hmmm...

Well, once I finish this we'll see how well things mesh, I guess. XD

[MrDidact]

Vita, I understand that just hoping you know she'll probably be beat regularly. Kinda like Flash's villains...

Mat, I am unfamiliar with the Circus of Crime. I can almost guarantee that there will be Suicide Squad and Legion of Doom ripoffs haha.

[VitaVitaAR]

Well, I mean Blast Girl beats her regularly so I kind of expected that would happen. She's dangerous but Blast Girl can still beat her on her own.

... Though I've decided guns are no use on her because she has music for vibrating their components apart, though it doesn't work on everything obviously.

[MrDidact]

Well that should only work on the ones that she sees :P

I also want to note that this won't be like the regular comics, where we keep fighting the same two-bit villains over and over. There will be some genuine threats that will be long-term but a lot of villains will actually stay in jail or the grave, wherever they end up :P

I'm not sure what my schedule is for next few hours (family) but I'm thinking that I can make the first IC post sometime tonight. Two days for everyone to respond while I'm away for the weekend and then we can start in earnest on monday. How does that sound?

[Dead Cruiser]

Weekends are really the only time I can post. Posting on a phone is very time-consuming, and I have a rather restricted schedule. Just a forewarning.

[VitaVitaAR]

I didn't think she'd have much more then a couple appearances. ^^;

Though at the same time I do think there's some way she avoids imprisonment altogether, unlike the other people Blast Girl has been up against. Probably by managing to not be there long enough to be knocked out or something. Partially because I find the idea of a "Theater" villain too entertaining to permanently put away even though she'll never show up in the RP after one appearance but yeah.

[MatParker1711]

Imagine a mind controlling ringmaster, super strong strongman, human cannonball that can't be stopped once it gets going, snake charmer that controls mutant snakes etc and you get the idea.

[Falkon]

I am interested in this. Not sure what I want to play, but I'm definitely going to be thinking about it.

[Arty Fox]

Same goes for me, if there's enough room.

[MrDidact]

There's always room.

EDIT: Vita, well we'll see :P

Mat, interesting sounds pretty campy to say the least, but then again we might need a break from Super Serial Killers and Terrorists :P
