In World War II heroes and superhumans hit the scene in America. Captain America and the Invaders fought the Red Skull and Hitler and helped turn the tide of the war in favor of the Allies. As luck would have it, Captain America managed to beat old age after getting frozen in an adventure in the 40's after the war had ended. Steve Rogers would wake up some time after the year 2000 and begin operating as an agent of the United States as he did during his time in the Invaders, and he eventually joined the more modern heroes as an Avenger. In VI[or VII] Forgotten Heroes we'll take characters from the Marvel library with origins during WWII and bring them at the height of their careers from the days of World War II into the present day similar to what happened to Captain America. In this story the Red Skull will come into possession of the Time Gem from the Infinity Gauntlet during WWII. A time traveler by the name of Franklin Richards will put a team together with an elderly Captain America in the present day comprised of Cap's former crew back in the 40's to take the 'Skull down in the present day for control of the Time Gem. The idea is loosely based on the All New X-Men where the original five X-Men were brought to the modern day in a sort of reboot.

Already accepted characters/players include:

Me - The Destroyer
@Sep - The Whizzer
@FantasyChic - Union Jackie
@rocketrobie2 - Blue Bullet [pre-approved]

Right now we're currently still accepting two or three additional players. You can take ANY character from the Marvel library with origins during WWII and bring them at the height of their careers from the days after World War II into the present day. And I'm not opposed to genderbent heroes, as you can see with the inclusion of Union Jackie rather than Union Jack. Here's some info on a few teams from the 40's era as well as a much larger list of Golden Age Marvel characters as well as others retconned into having been active in the 40's like Crimson Commando. I'll accept one completely original WWII era hero, but the CS will have to be superb and it will have to fit with the theme. Links with the info...

List of Invaders -- comicvine.gamespot.com/invaders/4060-2..

The Twelve -- comicvine.gamespot.com/the-twelve/4060..

The Liberty Legion -- comicvine.gamespot.com/liberty-legion/..

Other Golden Age Marvels -- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Marvel_C..

CS base for anyone interested in this setting:

Secret ID:
Alias:
Age: [How old were you in the 1940's]
Powers:
Weaknesses:
Personality: [how you were acting while fighting against Nazi superhumans! LOL]
Appearance: [you can pick an actors face, use reference from old comics, modern designs for your hero post time skip, etc if you wish. Or just write a description...]
BRIEF Bio: [I'd probably expect a brief origin leading into your hero fighting Nazi superhumans...]
Notes: [anything else you need to mention?]
Sample Post: [Three paragraph Advanced level post. The setting is a secluded HYDRA base in the woods somewhere in Europe. Finish the post with 'a bright flash of light...' that will lead into the beginning of the RP.]

______________________________

And now the story thus far with images linked for visual reference:

So yeah, we've got two or three spots still available with one of them open to a completely original WWII era hero. I'll try and get the IC up so long as we get a couple more players ASAP. Accepted players go ahead and repost your sheets in the character tab!

@The Kid Lantern you may want to alter the name of the thread to just "The Forgotten Heroes" or something as it's a bit long :P

Usually the OOC picks people up.

Sadly it seems like there is no demand for WW2 heroes xD

@The Kid Lantern Surely with me, you Rocket and Fantasy we could play? Four is a solid cast.

I'm so sorry I haven't gotten my CS up yet. I went on vacation recently and now I'm feeling the backlash from school. I'll try to get it up this weekend but no promises.

You had like 90% of this done already didn't you? If we don't get this one going soon I'm afraid we'll all lose interest...

Still trying to get this IC done if everyone's still game. I'm just not sure how to go about the story now with such a small cast. I may have to introduce an NPC or two and just write them off later.

Still, didn't want you guys thinking I forgot about this one. Just been a tough first week at work and I've been hitting the sack almost immediately after getting home around 11 pm my time.

Just a heads up. My cat knocked my laptop off my table and something is wrong with the power cord and it won't even turn on now. Can't really type Advanced level posts on the iPad without a ton of aggravation and I'm already gonna be struggling with the other two Advanced games I'm in to make the longer posts. Depending how long it takes to get my computer fixed I may have to put this one on the back burner....
