This is Megatropolis City
(Yeah, we're not good at making names)

Founded in the great year of 19105, Megatropolis is an extremely large and technologically advanced city with a population of around 10 million. For the most part, Megatropolis is rather prosperous and generally quite peaceful, however, this peacefulness quickly turns to panic upon the arrival of various Monsters, Villains and jaywalkers (probably not that last one, actually), of which Megatropolis seems to attract for seemingly no reason. Luckily, Megatropolis is also fortunate enough to have a surplus of various Superheroes within it, be they technological or magical. Superhumans, Sentai Rangers, Magical Girls and much, much more. They don't necessarily operate together (they're independent of each other most of the time), nor do they have any real relation to each other. They just happen to live or base themselves there for their individual reasons. Their presence within the city is what maintains the peace, as they protect it with their technological prowess, martial skill or supernatural powers. With the combined (or individual) efforts of these various Heroes, Megatropolis is frequently rescued from the brink of destruction, time and time again.

However, just as there are your Heroes and Villains, there are also those who opt to take a neutral approach, seeking to serve only themselves, and having mixed views in the eyes of the public.

Whether you're a Hero, Villain or somewhere in-between: Welcome to Megatropolis.



Yo. This is an RP I thought up through a combination of my own boredom, and inspiration from One-Punch Man. If you haven't seen One-Punch Man it, go watch it. Or don't. I'm just some guy on a Roleplaying Forum. Anyway, this RP is a light-hearted one, based around life within a high-tec metropolis, called...Megatropolis, your typical Superhero City with a penchant for Monster problems and a prime target for evil plots made by Villains. In this RP variety is generally the name of the game. While the RP is primarily based around Heroes living out their lives in Megatropolis (be they solving crimes or just buying some fast food), there's also room for people to apply as a Villain, or an edgelord character who is truly ambivalent to good and evil. Of course, we'd prefer if there were more Heroes than Villains or Neutrals, since we can always just create NPC Villains to spice things up.

In terms of players, we don't really have a hard limit. If we feel that the RP's getting too big, we can always just close of character applications or whatnot.

Also, this RP is arc-based, with a few free moments between arcs to allow for character interactions that all the cool kids crave. If you've got a particular Story Arc idea that you want to put forward (be it revolving around your character somehow or not), be sure to message the Co-GMs and I, and we'll see if we can add it in sometime.

...

I've got nothing left to write.

Thanks, and show interest have fun.

As someone looking to fill the void in their life now that One Punch Man has finished the anime, i am definitely in. Okay to play a Metal Knight character who is actually a good guy? More like a combination of Metal Knight and Iron Man. A guy is a base exo-skeleton suit he can spruce up with different parts and armours?

Yep, completely possible to have a Power Suit-type character like that.

Aside from that, it's good to have this amount of interest. I'll probably give the Interest Checks about 1-2 more days before making the OOC, based on how many people we get between then.

I could be up for something lighthearted. I have a decent concept for a character that would fit well enough into this sort of setting.

Oh, great! I'd like to know more about Megatropolos city itself - apart from the general concept, what's it like? What are the main sights, what are the facilities, what are the differences between different parts of town, etc.

It's a fairly high-tech city overall, but it's split into around five districts that all have a varying amount of technological advancements and prowess. I'll get into more detail when the OOCs out, but I can give a few examples:

The largest district—B-District—has an our-time modern look in spite of it's advancements.

There's also the A-District, which is the most technologically advanced district. It's the city with all the ridiculously large skyscrapers, companies and unnecessary flashing lights.

Then there's the C and D-Districts, which are the "quiet" districts. D-District is essentially your typical dock and seaside area with some housing in it, whereas C-District has a much more "quiet neighbourhood" look in comparison to the others.

Finally, there's the E-District, which is basically the slums. Very little advancement, generally quite dangerous and a pretty crappy place to be in. It's also now where the junkyard is located, which doesn't really help the situation at all.

Aside from that, there aren't any particular locations of interest per say - save for that one fast food chain called MdConalds, which is probably a reference to something. Locations of interest are basically down to you guys to create to suit with any arcs you may want to suggest, or just to anchor your characters to the world.

Yep. Hopefully that answers at least some of your questions on the city setting, since there's really not much else to tell aside from that.
