Forum: Casual Interest Checks
My go to is the Light Bowgun or the Gunlance, but willing to defer if someone else has a preferred choice between the two!
I wouldn't mind being an old friend who lost touch with Austin and came back for the funeral. Perhaps a powered but undecided.
Cool idea, I'm in
Got slowed down just because of the depth of the character builder/class related stuff. But I'm still interested in playing, can put a sheet together shortly!
Hey I'm trying to play catch up a bit - is this a game thats continuing from a previous state?
I'd also like to apply!
earlier...
When the team separated to prepare for the upcoming undercover mission, Black Canary called out to Quiver. He held back while the others dispersed, curious as to what it was he was about to be scolded for. Or perhaps he'd be getting additional instructions related to helping "coach" the others in being a different person. He meant what he had said, he didn't have much in terms of alternate gear to be this assassin villain version of himself. He had given up that life a long while ago - or rather, he was rescued by that lifestyle from the Bat-Family. Primarily Nightwing and Robin. Dick and Tim had been temporary big brothers to Quiver. He hadn't had much of a chance to spend time with them lately, though he still exchanged the occasional phone call or text with Tim, curious over what kind of trouble he was getting into while working Star City.
He was surprised that what Black Canary wanted was to pass along a gift from Nightwing. Apparently it was already waiting for him back in his quarters. What he saw when he arrived was a Haliburton style silver and black case. Not too dissimilar from a Haliburton. Curious, Quiver clicked the dual-release buttons to open it. The first thing he saw was an envelope.
"WILL"
It said in Dick Grayson's shite handwriting.
He opened it and skimmed it's contents.
"RT and BC let me know you guys were heading undercover for this next one. I hope you don't mind I thought I'd send this over your way. Consider it a gift. We've all had to go undercover once or twice, and Batman taught me it was always good to have an alter-ego you can rely on to live a dual life in the underworld. This one was mine, but I think it should fit you nicely, should you need it."
Quiver saw beneath the envelope was a full on suit...

now...
Quiver, decked out head to toe in Nightwing's "gift" of the Red X identity, stood just outside the periphery of Bulwark and Fulgora. He could hear that Rain was already deep inside the headspace of his persona, utilizing an (admittedly) convincing accent. It was good that he was opting to be the loud brash one. Quiver knew that always with these groups of mercenary types, there was always the over-confident bruiser. Rain was playing his role well. In his Red X gear, Quiver didn't have to worry about his voice or accent. The mask had a built in voice modulator, giving the wearer a sort of scrambled distorted version of the sound of their own voice.
For Quiver, he would be clinical. Cold. Focused solely on getting "the bag." Or the Target. Whatever the case may be. Still, he approached cautiously and carefully, intensely aware of the nigh-considerable danger she posed not just to the mission proper, but potentially to each of their own identities, as well as the League. She already held quite the hand in this card game of fate.
Quiv-I mean "Red X" took a moment to take in the visage of this tentative and dangerous ally. He was surprised by what he saw, but did his best to seem non-plussed by her appearance. She was undoubtedly used to having eyes pointed at her. Her outfit was flashy, standout, and practical, demanding a sort of dangerous attention. Red X knew she would fit in perfectly among the villainous people they were to spend the regal evening with. Red X took in the sight of her - the feathered hat, the blood red cloak. He couldn't help but think she would just fit into one of Dumas' novels. Like a violent and femme fatale version of D'artagnan. Beautiful and deadly.
"Easy Bulwark. Watch this one. Our interests are only currently aligned. Origami was connected enough to get an invite on her own terms. But us? Plus one scum."
Dyna City was awash in chaos.
The streaking comet through downtown and it's subsequent destructive waves caused numerous emergencies, and both police and emergency vehicles were in full meltdown and action. The rush of traffic and panic was causing a real congestion of the city's population. Luckily, in the hours after, the good news would be that there were no fatalities only mostly scratches, bruises, and at the very worst some broken bones.
The real danger however was not in the downtown metro area, where the streaking bolt of fire had chartered it's dangerous course through the buildings and streets. The real danger was descending just outside the city. But not all at once. Instead, it slowly spread it's toxins through the veins of the populace slowly, the true terror of what this new world was going to have to face perhaps only biding it's time. It started however, truly, in an open field.

Sully had made his way over to what looked like a downed craft. Almost an advanced speeder that wouldn't be too out of place at the Grand Pris. Except this one was slightly larger, and clearly capable of flight. Sully could see where the craft had crashed and slid across the field, it's long track of dirt and debris pulled up from the ground where it finally came to a skidding halt. Sully didn't hesitate to approach.
While Nate was busy freeing the flamboyant Finn from his current predicament, they both saw out of the tree line and over to where Sully was now approaching. A remarkable sight to be sure, they began to make their way over.
Finn wasn't sure if he was concussed, but he thought he could see a strange shimmer on the horizon. Almost like some sort of reflection like a bubble on the surface of water. He pointed it out to Nate, who pointed out something that he was more immediately concerned with: a seeming self-propelled lightning bolt, or an energy signature of some kind, was illuminating a few yards from where Sully was. The two boys broke out into a sprint, as they saw that the world in front of them was somehow being wrenched open - and instead of a strange energy orb, the world opened like a rift, out of which stepped 6 hulking monsters. Not unlike the creature that had appeared at the lab with two other young students.

At the site of the downed ship, Sully could see that there was a cockpit still in tact. Without knowing how to operate the craft, he began trying to pry a door open. With a *wshhhhhhh* the cockpit opened upward, nearly sending Sully sprawling backward. In the pilot seat, clearly wounded, was what looked like a person. They were wearing a red flight suit - what almost looked like armor, and their helmet was of a gorgeous red sheen. The visor however looked cracked, and Sully could see what looked like a dark liquid spilling from it. Blood?
The red armored pilot stood up, wobbled on his feet before collapsing towards Sully.
"Wher..where is this?" a voice came out beneath the helmet.

Miles away - DANGER.
Felix watched as Rick bravely gets between him and the vicious looking creature that spawned from the rift. Without a second thought, Rick swung what looked like a mace - but what was actually a microscope he had grabbed from a nearby lab station, an improvised weapon - and cracked the creature across it's brow.
The two boys were stunned however as the creature seemed to barely register the attack, and it's clawed hand reached out with a flash, grabbed Rick by his shoulder and screamed - a mouth full of sharp teeth in a head with no eyes screamed at the boy. Felix could see what looked like hot saliva spill from the creatures mouth.
Behind them, the rift began to open again. And this time a humanoid shape stepped out. They were completely grey from head to toe, and they held a small device out in front of them that looked like almost like an old Satellite phone. This second person paid no mind to the two boys.
The creature meanwhile hurled Rick over a desk, where several instruments clashed and shattered on the floor. It locked its gaze (if a head with no eyes can gaze) upon Felix and reared up to dive at him. It's grey ally held a finger up and the creature stopped short. Felix was surprised that he could understand the language of the strange new visitor.
"Don't waste your time. Kill them if you want to, but it seems the others have already locked onto our quarry."

Hey Flappy!
Again I owe you an apology - I had an exhange with some players that gave me some pause, but after reading your post yesterday I got to work on an update for our game.
The next post is going to move us forward a bit, and if you're alright with it, will act as a soft relaunch. As long as you're comfortable with me moving your characters myself, you can expect a big update during the day tomorrow (Friday)
