I meant to give my feedback on these choices.

Ant/Giant Man - Hank Pym

The small town loser, Hank isn't the brightest, but is kind and tries. However life for him hasn't been kind lately. He just lost his job because of a misunderstanding, and his girlfriend broke up with him. That night he drove out just needing fresh air and time to think. It was then he was kidnapped by aliens who abducted him. Hank vanished for over a year, presumed dead and soon forgotten.

When he returns to Earth he suddenly founds himself a super genius with the ability to grow and shrink to extreme sizes. SHIELD brings him in and after helping him get back on his feet and testing him. Give him a new alias and a mission to work at Stark Tech where he's to keep an eye on Tony Stark and what his up too.


I personally believe that Hank Pym is probably the best option of the three you listed. We have plenty of Avengers, so there should be ample opportunities for interaction (particularly in the future when the Avengers form). As long as Janet van Dyne can be MJ's fashion mentor, I'm fine with this idea.

Damien Brooks - Blade

The idea is essentially take the more devil may care style and look of Dante from Devil May Cry and mash him into Blade's fantastical vampire slaying. The same kind of set up, his mother is a brothel lady who got bitten by a vampire while still pregnant with Damien. When Damien was born the vampires killed his mother and raised him to be a ruler of the vampires. However Damien was saved after some years by hunters who helped him understand the truth and train him to become a vampire hunter.

Years later Damien still hunts vampires in the night, his tastes evolving over the decades as he enjoys rock and roll, pizza and wine, and killing vampires.


I don't necessarily see anything wrong with Blade. He just might be isolated at times, since we don't have many Street-Level characters in this game (besides the all-purpose team-up character better known as Spider-Man :D). While that does not mean Blade cannot interact with the other characters (see Nick Fury's Ultimate Avengers. I do believe Blade was on that team), Blade does not have as many "obvious" team-up choices as Hank Pym does.

Vance Astrovik - Justice

The powerful telekinetic superhero who grew up in a horrible home with an abusive father. Vance becomes good friends with Robbie Baldwin, a fellow super powered person. The two decided to become superheroes after high school, but things changed completely when while getting abused by his dad Vance killed his father in accidental self defense.

After pleading guilty Vance quietly served his time and is now a free man, with only Robbie left to be by his side. The two want to travel, be superheroes, and eventually will be starting up the New Warriors.

So which of them do you guys like the most?


I would put Justice as my 2nd choice. Unless Vance is fresh out of high school (i.e. graduated last school year), your idea might hinder any attempts for a Firestar-Justice relationship. Creating the New Warriors would not be a bad idea, although unless other players pick up the other characters, it might be full of NPC's.

Also, I'll try to update the roster as soon as I can get to it.
Post should be up "soon".

Oh Hi Ded, you're still here? ;)


Why wouldn't I. ;)
@FacePunch Wolverine looks good so far.
@FacePunch Arachne post is up. The next part of this battle, when Arachne goes in to stick the silk line on Polemos, I would like Polemos to free one of his arms and try to push her back by placing his hand on her face. This is where she will bite him and the whole "I'm a giant Black Widow and you have been injected with deadly neuro-toxins" fun begins, even though technically Arachne is a Brown Widow and she doesn't have any venom glands (but Polemos does not know this!).

I clung to the side of one of the buildings which I used to anchor the massive spider web (or rather giant cob web), waiting for something to happen. Athena told me to just hang out towards the side and hold onto one web line that was attached to the center of the web. The string would alert me if anything has gotten caught in the giant web. I patiently gripped the silky thread, wondering when something would happen.

Then I felt a tingling inside my head. Why did I need this strand of silk in my hands if my ripped-off 6th sense could alert me to danger? Well, I would find out shortly why.

Even though I had advance warning, I still was not prepared for what was about to happen. In the short span of a few seconds, the entire web began to shake rapidly, let alone the silk strand that I held in my hand. In fact, the intensity of disturbance took me by surprise, causing me to loosen the grip around the strand and let it fall down to the alleyway floor. Even after the onset of this disturbance, the web continued to shake, although the vibrations diminished as time passed.

Although my gut feeling told me not to leave the safety of my hiding spot, I pulled myself onto the web. When I scanned around the area to see what had caused the massive shaking in my web, I first saw a silver and blue figure floating in the sky. His silver cape was flapping in the wind as he hovered there. From his expression, I could tell that he was looking at something in the web. Therefore, I ‘followed’ his gaze to the place where Icon was looking. Ensnared in my web was the so-called Servant of Ares. Just as Athena had planned.

Before I had confronted this Greek demi-god wannabe at that giant shrine of Ares, Athena had discussed with me her plan to oust both Ares and his servant. At this stage of the plan, the Goddess of Wisdom told me that this would be the most dangerous part (considering what happened to me when I first confronted him, I have no idea why I’m doing this). She said that this portion of the plan would be like a spider trying to land the finishing blows on a wasp that was trapped in its web. While the wasp has been ensnared in the sticky substance that composed the spider’s web, the deadly insect was not helpless. Without taking the necessary precautions, the spider could easily be stunned and killed by the wasp. Figures that Athena would use a Homeric simile to describe this situation.

After taking a deep breath, I began to climb down my silky trap, down to where the Servant of Ares was stuck. With each step, walking with eight legs became easier and easier, although there were a few times where I almost tripped over myself. I have found that not focusing on moving each individual leg helped things out. A normal person does not need to focus her attention to moving her two legs. Why should I?

Once I was a few feet away from the man who was ensnared in the web, I took a few more steps towards him, positioning myself just close enough so that I could encapsulate him with some more silk. How difficult could that be? Yes, Athena did say it would be dangerous, but with my wrist web shooters, I probably could do from a safe distance. Therefore, I aimed my wrists at the man and squeezed down the triggers. However, nothing came out. Hoping that this was just a user error, I pressed the triggers down a second time. This time, only a small amount sprayed out.

Looking down at my spider abdomen, I realized that, since apparently my wrist spinnerets were low on silk, I was going to have to do this the hard way. What my luck. Eerily enough, one of my hind legs had already drew out a strand of silk from the spinnerets that were located on my spider abdomen. I curled down and grabbed the strand from my leg. Once I straightened out, I could feel the silk being pulled from the spinnerets. Honestly, I don’t think I will ever get use to that weird feeling. Well, looks like I now have to stick this onto this guy and start spinning him around as the spider silk encases him. God help me.
*crawls in from no net land a plops down* apologies folks, I lost net due to issues with my modem and it wasn't fixed until today. What did I miss? >_>


The Icon/Polemos/Arachne battle is still going on (will try to have the next post up "soon"). Equilibrium confronted War-Pulse, but in his tactical retreat, Equilibrium sent a news chopper hurling down at War-Pulse, killing 3 people. Now, after Equilibrium's AI friend, Sherlock, stole some code from Archangel, Archangel is now confronting Equilibrium. Umbraxis has now made first contact with humans (although all witnesses are dead, so everyone else does not know about it).

I think that wraps up about everything. Anyone else can chime in if I missed something of yours. :D
I don't want to be a bother, but when is #4 being posted? I need some redemption from the last few contests. :(
Well, school is starting back up soon, so things might be slow until everyone gets into a routine.
No fighting, children.
