| NAME |
Damian al Ghul, Ibn al Xu'ffasch (Son of the Demon)

| ALIGNMENT |
Chaotic Neutral. Might shoot you in the back. Might save your life. Might get a cheeseburger.

| AFFILIATION |
The League of Shadows

| HISTORY |

Continuing South, Bruce found himself recruited into a band of mercenaries in Egpyt. It was here he learned the tactics of guerrilla warfare as Bruce was taught how to strike back against insurgent forces. During one penultimate firefight, Bruce and his allies found themselves ambushed leading to Bruce taking a bullet for his associate Marc Spector¹. The two forged a friendship as they survived the ambush and helped patched one another up while Marc headed further into Egypt and Bruce made his way to Wakanda.

@Lord Wraith

And now, the rest of the story.

Marc Spector hadn’t been the only one learning guerrilla tactics. Brought in to help finance the operation and supply weapons, Talia al Ghul was honing her craft in preparation for leading insurgents and directing political discord across the globe. What no one had planned for was Bruce Wayne. And long nights with dark knights.

Damian was born nine years ago in Bahrain. Raised as the grandson of Ra’s al Ghul, he knows only death -- nothing of love, very little about life, and even less about his father.

Rationally, he must have a biological sperm donor but all that he’s been told is that his mother is Talia al Ghul and he is the heir to the League of Shadows. As his ninth birthday approached, the boy was set upon a path that will complete his training as an assassin. The brutal slaying of the rival assassin Morgan Ducard was the first murder on this quest chosen for him by Talia, this Year of Blood.

One thing is very clear: Someone won’t live to see his tenth birthday. Possibly him.

| SUPPORTING CAST |
• Ra’s al Ghul – The Demon’s Head, leader of the League of Shadows. He is like a GOD to Damian.

• Talia al Ghul – Daugher of Ra’s al Ghul and Damian’s mother. Serves as his ‘life coach.’

• Goliath – A demon from an unearthly realm, recovered as a man-bat cub during the Year of Blood. A familiar.

• Nobody (Maya Ducard) – The daughter of the original Nobody (Morgan Ducard). Seeks revenge for her father’s vicious killing.

| VARIATIONS ON A THEME |
Actually, no. This is pretty straight stick and I wouldn’t see need to complicate it with needless intersections or cross-overs prior to the actual roleplay.

It's a pleasant surprise and I'd be happy to work a 'Son of the Bat' plot into my plans if you are interested in actually playing the character.

@Lord Wraith

In that case, we'll talk again in 24 hours.

Unless it's denied. Then we'll agree never to speak of this again.

@Byrd Man

The misspelling of his name nails it.

I yield to your pony awesomeness of +5 Twilight Sparkle.

The New Frontier: A Marvel/DC One Universe RP

I was hoping to get into a voting war with @Byrd Man just to see which of us would come out on top, but not with the idea of playing him. Just to see how my writing stacked against the Byrdtastic Man-Whore (or is it Whore-Man? I forget...)

That being said, if Damian is workable with the construct that @Morden Man and @Lord Wraith have in mind for the game and Batman in particular, then I'd be happy to roll with it.

<Snipped quote by Bounce>

I'd be willing to entertain this.

@Lord Wraith

Oh well then...

Calling @Byrd Man out.

You were talkin’ that good shit a minute ago. Where your sheet at? Where your balls at, son?

Game recognize game, and you lookin’ kinda unfamiliar right now!

| NAME |
Kai-ro, Green Lantern of Sector 2814

| ALIGNMENT |
Lawful Good

| AFFILIATION |
The Green Lantern Corps

| HISTORY |
Kai-ro is a descendent of the ancient and extinct civilization of Nanda Parbat, born on Earth as the off-spring of refugees who escaped the destruction of their homeworld and were successful in integrating into human society centuries ago. Born into an impoverished family living in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China, Kai-ro became one of many boys orphaned into the various Buddhist temples throughout the Himalayans. As a result, Kai-ro is fluent in both Tibetan and Mandarin Chinese, being formally educated in the latter while more often speaking the former in normal conversation while 'growing up monk.' Functioning like a boarding school and orphanage, the monastery saw to all of Kai-ro's basic needs while providing for his education.

It was during Year 3 of our story's continuity that Kai-ro's story became something beyond that of a simple monk, living and learning in a temple in China. For it was in that year that the Green Lantern Abin Sur took off his ring and retired from the Corps. That ring was sent to search the universe for one whose will was strong, one who would stand up in brightest day and darkest night. And that ring found a young Tibetan monk named Kai-ro and the ring spoke to him and said, Kai-ro of Earth, you have the ability to overcome great fear.

Transported by the ring to the Corps Headquarters on the planet Oa, Kai-ro found himself indoctrinated into a new order and discipline; that of the Green Lantern Corps. Graduating from Killowog's training, the boy finds himself charged with maintaining peace and order in the wider galaxy, while ensuring that Earth remains out of the growing conflict between the Shi’ar and the Kree. He returned to Earth several months ago, garnering much attention for his youth and abilities.

| SUPPORTING CAST |
Clarissi Salaak – The title roughly translates as 'Commander', denoting that this Slyggian from Sector 1418 and veteran Green Lantern is one of the chief administrators of the Lantern Corps, and is responsible for directing the Enforcement branch of the Corps.

Kilowog – Kai-ro's drill instructor and trainer, a Bolovaxian from Sector 0674.

Ch'p – A squirrel or chipmunk-like alien from the planet H'Iven in Sector 1014.

Aya – An artificial intelligence which exists as a humanoid robot and the computer of the Guardian patrol ship, Sentinel.

Uatu, the Watcher – The GLC Dispatcher for Sector 2814, based out of the Blue Moon Area of Luna.

| VARIATIONS ON A THEME |
This interpretation stays true to the DCAU Kai-ro, except that this version has Abin Sur's ring whereas the DCAU Kai-ro used John Stewart's ring, owing to the reinterpretation of him as a surrogate Hal Jordan. This is obviously flexible if we have someone who wants to come in as Hal Jordan.

Additionally, I’ve broadened the notion of the GLC from “Cops in Space” to more of a UN Peacekeeping Force, charged with maintaining the security of neutral borders such as keeping Earth from being used by either the Shi’ar or the Kree in their interstellar war. I’ll also incorporate the Z’ynx (Snarks) and the Kymellians, with the idea that the GLC works to prevent non-space faring civilizations from being corrupted or enslaved by exposure to more advanced races, in order to incorporate the notion of the GLC alongside the Marvel universe with its many warring alien factions.

Oh, and Kai Ro is accepted. @Bounce

@Byrd Man

You know I would challenge that sheet with the quickness.

I dare you just for the voting.

<Snipped quote>

4-6 years since Superman debuts is plenty of time for Supergirl to debut honestly, and the New 52 makes the Robin's happen even sooner (and briefer) for a good comparison point.

@Gowi

We do not speak of the New 52.

It is dead to us.

_{For fuck's sake, they've made Robin the new Jean Grey of death/resurrection. And I can't forgive them for Wondy's pantsuit.}

<Snipped quote by Morden Man>
Considering that Miles Morales originated in the Ultimate universe, but is now integrated in the 616 universe, would he be on the table?

EDIT: I've discussed him with prospective Spidey players, all of whom are cool with it.

@GreenGrenade

Dude, I dropped Kai-ro for GL. He's never been incorporated into the DCU. He's from the DC Animated Universe and its "Beyond" label comics.

Thus far @Morden Man hasn't rejected that, so I'm thinking so long as it has a Marvel or DC label, it's fair game.
