Justice League Unlimited (Always Open)

I was thinking of the Question, although, based on your avatar, feel free to reserve him. He'd probably team up with Huntress or Green Arrow.

Yog, perhaps I'd just rather you play other characters because it would just be odd to have a dearth of humanoid PCs

okay, I'll find some other character

riurik said
wut.These are in the DC universe? They're robo-animals?

they're part of a Vertigo comic, I was asking if they were okay to play as since Vertigo is a publisher owned by DC

[Yog Sothoth]

okay so I found three characters that might be interesting to play as, they are Andrew Bennett, Phantom Stranger and Scratch.

[MrDidact]

riurik, I just laving his lack of a face as an Avatar feel free to play him. I would just play any key characters not already reserved.

Yog, The problem with the Phantom Stranger is that he is much, much too powerful a Character to play. Game balance basically goes out the window, falls 100 stories down, hits a pile of bricks, gets trampled by a bull, blown up by dynamite, set on fire, and hit with a fire hose :P

Andrew Bennett should be fine, though I presume this would be the heroic version :P

I've never heard of Scratch until now (seems like a more obscure Tasmanian Devil) but he should be fine too.

Can someone like Gypsy (Cynthia Reynolds) and Ray (Raymond Terrill) be accepted?

[MrDidact]

Heck yeah, they're actually character's I'm quite fond of. They're both in the show, so they're basically guaranteed to be acceptable.

Ok maybe one or two more people before I can actually get this going.

[FiroIV]

Cool. Out of all the non speaking characters shown in the series they were the ones that seemed very interesting to me, I'll downplay some of their powers though becuase it seems like they can be a bit too powerful from what I read on them. I'll look more info to see how i can play them, but for the most part I'll be free styling them.

[MrDidact]

Sounds good, one of the main features here is that you play established characters with your own unique twist. There are tons of comics based on the Unlimited show, one of them even features Gypsy but I'm not sure about Ray. Ray's powers are pretty broad and I think Gypsy had phasing in the show instead of the ones she usually has, so it's up to you which abilities you want to use for them.

"THIS SOUNDS LIKE A JOB FOR"

"SUPERGIRL!"

I'd love to join and for once I have no trouble with canon character play, I'll simply view it as if I were running a Pregen.
Oh! An I call Dibs on Kara Zor-El, Matrix, Kara, Linda Danvers or whomever you wish to call her

[MrDidact]

Supergirl, cool. This Supergirl would be the DCAU's version, we can just say she got sick of the future and returned back :P

And for a second character you could also play Matrix or even Power Girl (I had a special origin for this RP's Power Girl)

[RumikoOhara]

Powergirl too? Wow what fun

[MrDidact]

Yep, we definitely have team muscle now :P

[RumikoOhara]

I always thought of powergirl as the nerd artists dream supergirl

[MrDidact]

She is that.

Ok, at least one more person and I can make an OOC.

[FiroIV]

By the way is the JLU comic based out of the series still canon? or are we just going from the tv show?

[MrDidact]

The show is the bedrock canon but we can still use continuity from the JLU comics, it's just that anything in the comics that contradicts the show and can't be reconciled is overruled by the show.

[MrDidact]

Since we have so few right now, I think I'm going to raise the character cap to Three.

[FiroIV]

I only asked because in the JLU comics ray's (Raymond terrill) dad Happy is also a a hero for another group and I'd really like to incorporate that somehow. Also, oddly enough, in the comics Gypsy's powers is to become invisible, and if possible I'd like to combine that with her intangibility power from the series.

[MrDidact]

Those both sound like good ideas, I think the Freedom Fighters might show themselves at some point. Any ideas for a third?
