All-Star Marvel: Audax Mundus Novus - Season 1 (Completed)

Carol Danvers

Carol gently closed her bedroom window, making sure no one would hear her leaving the house. However, because of the ruckus that her drunk father was making a few rooms over, there was almost zero risk of her being caught by anyone because the click of her closing window would have been drowned in the shouts of her father. Mr. Danvers was not inherently a terrible father, but one who had been plagued by bad luck. Losing his son, coupled with his job, which was a major source of income for the Danvers household, would have caused anyone to spiral out of control.

Once outside, Carol turned away from the house and rushed out into the darkness. Before mass consumption of electricity and artificial light, darkness ruled the night. Mankind was not terrified at the existence of monsters, but rather by its curiosity and imagination. Monsters did not lurk in the night, but what if they did? However, once artificial lighting became universality consumed by humanity, the fear of the unknown dissipated. Unfortunately, the artificial light causes an effect that makes the stars in the night sky seem dimmer. Even going out into a dark field will not be enough if there is a neighboring city polluting the sky with light.

Even though the amount of artificial light did not make that night perfect for star gazing, Carol picked out the Andromeda constellation from the various stars twinkling in the night sky. While she could barely pick it out, Carol could discern a dim light, which was actually the Andromeda galaxy, located right next to the “knee cap” of the Andromeda constellation. While it is not the closest neighbor to the Milky Way (the Magellanic Clouds and a few other smaller galaxies are closer), it is one of the largest neighbors to our own galaxy.

Suddenly Carol was blinded by a blaring light. Has her father already found her? However, Carol deduced that it could not be her father because of the direction from which the light was originating. Instead of coming horizontally, somehow the beam of light was coming from above. Carol reached down to touch her hand on the ground, but she was bewildered to discover that her hand did not feel anything solid underneath her. In fact, when she looked down at the ground, she had already risen up several feet off the ground. Panicking, Carol flailed in vain as she tried to get back to the ground. Whoever (or whatever) was abducting her must have decided that the commotion that this Earthling was making was putting them in a vulnerable position to be discovered, forcing them to activate some kind of device that knocked Carol out cold. For the rest of the way up to the alien space-craft, Carol did not make another sound, nor did her limbs stir.

Player Name: Dedonus
Character You Wish To Play: Carol Susan Jane Danvers, better known as Ms. Marvel
Moral Alignment: Good
Affiliation: Solo, but eventually the Avengers
Character Origin & Backstory:
Carol Danvers was born in Boston, Massachusetts to Joseph and Marie Danvers. Even though she was the eldest child in the family, her father, Joseph favored his two sons, Steven and Joseph Jr. No matter what she did, whether Carol excelled at school or athletics, nothing pleased her father. It almost seemed as if he expected one of his two sons to carry on the family name. Even though his sons did not perform at the same level as Carol, their father still preferred them.

During her middle school years, tragedy struck the Danvers family. At the time, Joseph Danvers’ contracting business was barely staying afloat. One night, Joseph Sr. was driving Carol and Steven home after their father had drank his sorrows away after a dismal day of work. Since he was too intoxicated to be operating motor vehicles, Joseph Sr. caused a traffic accident. While the other driver luckily left the crash relatively unharmed, his son Steve failed to survive. Carol’s father could not accept the reality that his impaired driving caused the death of his eldest son, instead blaming Carol as the child who survived.

Ever since Steven’s death, Carol’s father descended into a spiral of despair. Now the bottle became his constant companion, even more so since the decline of his contracting career. Sometimes, when business was not faring well and Joseph has drank too much, Carol’s father would come home in a drunken stupor, capable of beating what remained of his broken family. While his two remaining children would occasionally feel the blunt force of their father, Carol’s mother usually was on the receiving end so that her children were not.

Carol’s abysmal life did not end there. Her junior year in high school, Carol learned that her family had only enough money to send one of his offspring to college and that her father had chosen her brother over her, in spite of her superior academic and athletic career. For her entire life, Carol had dreamed of the stars, wishing to go to space one day. She wished to become Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineer so that Carol could one day see the stars. However, now her dreams were crushed.

Or so she thought. But at what costs?

Powers and Abilities:
-Kree-Human Hybrid: Through the experiments of the Brood, Carol Danvers is now a hybrid of the Kree and human species. These experiments raised her powers above the levels of any normal human or Kree. For instance, Carol inherited the Kree skin density, bestowing upon her near invulnerability. However, since she is a hybrid, she does not need an enriched Nitrogen atmosphere to breathe.
-Superhuman Strength: Due to her enhanced Cree/Human physiology, Ms. Marvel is able to easily lift 75 tons (average). However, as she absorbs energy, Ms. Marvel is able to lift more weight, easily over 100 tons.
-Superhuman Speed: Ms. Marvel is able to move at high speeds, easily above any levels a normal human could ever dream of.
-Superhuman Agility and Reflexes: Ms. Marvel’s agility, balance, and reflexes far exceed that of any regular human. While concentrating, only villains with the fastest reflexes and truest aim will be able to land a blow on Carol.
-Superhuman Stamina: Carol’s enhanced Kree-Human physiology allows her to continuing exerting herself at full effort for several hours. Her energy absorption ability increases the upper limits of her stamina.
-Invulnerability: Ms. Marvel’s skin is able to withstand almost any soot of punishment, while her energy absorption defends her from almost anything else. Bullets bounce off her skin like nothing, while larger armaments fare a little better. Repeated powerful blows can wear her down, but weaker ones may sometimes go unnoticed.
-Flight: Ms. Marvel is able to reach Mach 3 while flying. At lower speeds, she is able to maneuver in the air with ease. She is also capable of using her own body as a human projectile, ramming into her enemies with great force.
-Photonic Blasts: Carol is able to blast photonic projectiles from her hands. Her energy absorption enhances the power of these bolts of energy.
-Energy Absorption: Part of Ms. Marvel’s invulnerability is her energy absorption. While her body can absorb any form of energy, her body is especially efficient in absorbing electric, light, thermal energies and radiation.
-Minor Molecular Control: Ms. Marvel is able to change her clothing through using her energy absorption powers. She is also able to switch between her hybrid and regular human form at will. These powers are easily used with the slightest amount of heat or light energy.

Sample Story Arcs:
-The Sins of the Brood: Introduction Arc where the Brood kidnap Carol and perform their experiments on her.
-The Rise of A Marvel: Carol adjusts to her new life as a human-Kree hybrid, using her powers to save Boston from countless threats.
-Avengers! Assemble!: Pretty much self-explanatory! :D Still looking for an Iron Man character…

My first Ms. Marvel post (I swear it is coming) might seem like it has some fluff information about stars, but people who know their Marvel galactic lore will see the allusion. :D

Also, I'm still waiting for ASM:RYV to come in the mail (since we were on the topic of what comics we are reading). >.<

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

Anyone know where Maverick's player vanished to? I'm still waiting on their reply.

@EnterTheHero

Sometimes, it helps to mention them (@Robeatics) if someone is running behind.

Yeah that was the plan, multiverse-wise!

Shall work on the sample post tomorrow when I have more time.

Also quick question about quality of writing. I found this in the Casual Interest Check section yet this is an advanced RP. I was just wondering whether this was actually an Avanced, High-Casual or Casual RP. I don't mind regardless, but I was just wondering!

@Natty

While this is in the Advanced section, I will accept Casual-level posts (high-casual would be welcomed, but do whatever you are comfortable). Just know that this is supposed to be a friendly environment for people to grow as writers (and roleplayers). Maybe if you begin writing at a casual level. Maybe you can only write a paragraph or two. You can use this environment to build yourself up (i.e. if you can write 2 paragraphs, try writing one additional one). No one here expects you to write a novella-sized posts in this RP.

I think the "Advanced" label in this thread covers the post rate more than post length. This roleplay might move slower than other ones (especially in casual).

Character You Wish To Play: America Chavez, Miss America

Moral Alignment: Hero

Affiliation: Formally the Teen Brigade

Character Origin & Backstory:

America Chavez grew up in a mysterious place named the Utopian Parallel with her mums. The Utopian Parallel is a place that strangely exists far from all other worlds; out of time and the multiverse itself. It was created many years ago by a Godly entity known as the Demiurge, the sentient life force of Earth's biosphere who seeded the Earth with 'pieces' of its own life essence. Life didn’t stay like paradise for long. At the age of six, America watched as destruction approached her home, with a black hole appearing in the sky. Tragically, the hole was attempting to pull her home directly into the multiverse, which would potentially destroy all life on the Parallel in the process. America’s mothers, the guardians of the Utopian Parallel, heroically sacrificed their bodies and souls in order to seal the black hole. Eager to help her mothers, America flew towards the hole not knowing what her parents were doing. This resulted in her being sucked through, with America finding herself alive and well in the multiverse.

Due to her mothers’ particles being smeared across the entire Multiverse as a result of them sealing the black holes, America found that she could now physically kick open her own doorways through reality, allowing her to travel the multiverse at her will. Deciding to make her parents proud and to honour their sacrifice, she trained and explored, eventually adopting the moniker ‘Miss America’, and began fighting crime and against any threats that she came across.

Eventually, Miss America became a member of the Teen Brigade, a team of teenager superheroes led by the Ultimate Nullifier. They faced many friends, although none of them that major, with the group regularly going toe to toe with z-listers or simple thugs and robbers. It was mainly for these reasons why America soon decided to leave, with her believing that she could probably do a much better job on her own. Well that, and the fact that she had begun a relationship with the Ultimate Nullifier who defiantly wasn’t her type by a long shot.

While still travelling the multiverse, America tends to frequently reside on Earth-212, a platonic perfect ideal of New York, where the metropolis has swept the entire globe and there’s mountains made of statues of liberty. This is when she discovers Earth-(world where the RP takes place), with her realizing that here is crime rates are high and people are in serious need of a good punching.

Powers and Abilities:

• Superhuman strength – America is able to lift around 5 tons while exerting herself.
• Self-Propelled Flight – America has the ability of self-propelled flight, with her being able to travel at around 20mph.
• Superhuman durability – While not completely invulnerable, America is fully capable of taking a beating before going down.
• Interdimensional Travel – Chavez is about physically kick open holes in reality, allowing her, as well as others, to travel the multiverse and through other dimensions.
• Bilingual – America is fluent in both English and Spanish.

Sample Story Arcs:

• Return to Utopia – America’s past catches up with her when whispers of destruction brings her home into the multiverse.
• I got my ticket for the long way round – Lost in the multiverse and with an alien parasite on their tale, punching may not be an option.

Sample Post: (This is used as an introduction to your writing – try to keep it to around three paragraphs or more and try to include dialogue):

Will get to work on a sample post if this is ok!

@Natty

Looks fine so far (sample post needed). For the multiverse jumping, I would prefer if you would lean towards staying in the RP's universe, but we can cross that bridge when we get to it.

Also, we are Earth-76031 (this thread's number).

Aye, though I have also seen you put one up in Casual as well which is where the attention is coming from.
Ignore me.

@Eru Iluvatar

I tried putting one in the general IC thread one of the other times I tried to get more interest, but no one bit that time. That's why I haven't put one up in there.

All-Star Marvel: Audax Mundus Novus - Season 1 (Completed)

Maybe you could put the Interest Check up in the actual IC forum instead of the Advanced RP section, and just state it to be an advanced RP?

Then again there are some new faces browsing this thread so it might not be needed.

@Eru Iluvatar

Do you mean the general interest check forum?

All-Star Marvel RPG

I have also updated the character list in the main thread so you all know who is available (I am about ready to finish my Ms. Marvel app, just FYI). We basically have the X-Men and most of the Avengers available for play.
