Current I'm tempted to say "I've lost better friends than you" to a lote of people lately. I'm not sure what I ever want to say to the better friends that I've lost, though.

Bio

Twelve years ago, I said something on this website that continues to embarrassing me to this day. I was a stupid kid, like most, but I've never quite gotten the taste out of my mouth. Anyone who knew me at the time can tell you about it.

I love this website. I'm pretty sure my phylactery is stored wherever the webserver is and a significant chunk of me will just disappear when it ceases operation. Until then, it comforts me. I should go to the hardware store and paint my bedroom walls with the same soft, brownish grey that the background color has been for the last twelve years. Some of my friends can't wait for the site to go offline but I don't know of any other places that offer the same sense of community.

I'm an omni-gamer. I like board games, tabletop roleplaying games, admire tabletop war games, suck at riddles, and have an absurd library of video games. Survival horror is basically my favorite genre. Otherwise I'm a fan of esoteric, occult bullshit and punk rock. But disco's cool. Disco is what humanity sounds like when it chooses to be happy. Between you and I, I'd like to hope that the days of my life can sparkle like a disco ball, accreting like sparks from a grinder held up against the unwavering dark of deaths own shadow. Burn baby burn.

You and I, we're gonna die. We should be friends first, though. Write some checks we can't cash and make eachother smile. Make believe for a while.

I thought I'd be able to do this one,but I just can't. Sorry guys. Go ahead and give my spot to a runner up.
I'm interested in either helpingon 2 or 3.
I entered one of the WOTM before Guildfall, I lost by a long shot, but enough people said they liked mine the best after the voting was done that their votes would've snagged me the victory. Not bragging, not complaining, just sharing an experience. I may try thIs contest out though while there is still time. It's only #1 once.
I'm always on a phone or similar devices, and Skype, as I recall, is blocked on my home's router. Would it be possible for anyone to PM me summaries or quotes from the conversations?

Gotham City: America's Most Corrupt Major City


Welcome to Gotham City Hell, the welcoming message scrawled on signs all around the city's entrances 'greets' newcomers. If you asked any random citizen, they'd agree with the metaphor that Gotham is a tree with roots planted in Evil. Countless attempts at reform have only eaten away at the rotten infrastructure of order and relative peace, leaving obvious spikes in random violence where organized crime had been. The tree that grows from the ashes is nourished by the ashes of the men who'd built it. In spite of the most valiant efforts made to change the city for the better, there is always an immensely opposite reaction of death, poverty, and misery distributed by those who claim use fear over the fearful. But even the strong are afraid.

They used to commit murder without a second thought. But now... now they look over their shoulder if they do it at all. When they trip and fall in the mud, I hear them. I'm always watching, like a falcon over it's chicks. But they don't know what I see. They think they can get away with it all, but I guarantee that they can't. After some close calls they exaggerate what happened to them, carving a legend out for me. It is now that they realize that I am the thing that goes bump in the night. Tonight marks the third year anniversary of my quest to do the impossible, to tame the madness that fuels Gotham's flames of chaos. It has been said that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting a separate result. As insane as I may be, I am no longer the lost-soul of Bruce Wayne. Now I am The Batman, and Gotham City belongs to me. I don't care what it takes. It is over my dead body that Gotham will continue to run rampant.

[_Playable Characters_]

| Batman: The Dark Knight Detective |

Identity: Bruce Anthony Wayne
Age: 27
Personality: Bruce is analytical and calculating in most walks of life, the only exception being the façade he creates when he shamelessly partakes in the most unwise and wasteful of public antics. He puts a large degree of effort accompanied with careful forethought into almost everything he does and is determined never to surrender to a physical force, or compromise his values, no matter the personal cost. He suffers from PTSD and a mild case of insomnia that makes it difficult for him to rest fully at times. His primary values are a Utilitarian sense of benevolence with a touch of deontological refusal to use a firearm or take a life. He believes that human life and the innocence and healthy development of youths are something that should be safeguarded. He is extremely intelligent and, according to the Meyers Briggs personality test, he is an INTJ. He is constantly honing his physique and taking in new information in order to keep himself prepared for anything that cones his way. As much as he enjoys learning, he also enjoys bestowing his collected knowledge unto others, and cares a great deal about people despite his cold exterior.

[_Major Supporting Characters_]

| Alfred Pennyworth |

Occupation: Butler
Personality: Alfred is a sophisticated individual whose loyalty is unquestionably solid as is his grounding in his ideals. When Alfred makes a promise, especially to Master Bruce, it will be fulfilled. He is generous, caring, intelligent, and quite sociable. He has a soft spot for children, and considers Bruce to be his son. He is not particularly keen on the idea of Batman, but still enables Bruce in doing so.
Abilities: Combat Experience, Marksmanship, Engineering Experience, Medical Expertise, Tactical Expertise, and Psychological Expertise.
History: Earlier in life he had been a British Secret Serviceman. Because of Thomas Wayne's charity, he became the target of an International scandal that necessitated his protection. Alfred assisted Thomas by orchestrating a fake death, witnessed by his son, for Bruce's own protection, before being assigned the legal guardian of the young man. Alfred became like a father to Bruce, encouraging both mental and physical training. Occasionally, he'd feel guilty about hiding the fact that Thomas was still alive from young Bruce, but he'd decided it truly was necessary. When Bruce began his crusade, Alfred was more than a little against the idea, but by the first year's end, he decided to provide support so that it would go well, as opposed to ending with Bruce's demise.

| Bane |

Status: At Large
Occupation: Professional Criminal
Personality: Severe, Goal Oriented, Brutal, Cunning, and Relentless.
Abilities: Extreme Combat Experience and Training, Superhuman Strength via Venom Steroid, Mastermind Scheming Ability
History: Born in a prison, he never had a name. His mother died in childbirth and he was raised by a few of the elderly prisoners, who hid his existence. When he grew older, he trained himself physically before he literally beat every other man in the prison. He restructured the prison hierarchy with himself as king, before he left, aiming to find better places. He escaped to Gotham city, uniting several small gangs into his own army.

| Oswald Cobblepot |

Occupation: Professional Criminal; Night Club Owner
Personality: Manipulative, Underhanded, Self-Serving, Greedy, Cunning, and Opportunistic. He prefers to have others do his dirty work for him.
Abilities: Opportunistic Savagery, Legal, Social, and Political finesse.
History: The son of a former Gotham mayor, Oswald grew up in the lap of luxury before discovering his father's corruption. When he was a young man, he saved the life of Carmine Falcone, pushing him out of the way of a drive by shooting. As repayment, Falcone made sure Oswald always had what he needed, even giving him a territory by the docks. As Cobblepot grew older, he grew into a working relationship with Falcone. He also grew physically out of shape.

| Johnathan Crane |

Status: Incarcerated: Arkham
Occupation: Formerly: Psychiatrist
Personality: Loves to invoke fear in others to feel better about himself. Intelligent, yet shortsighted.
Abilities: Chemically induce fear
History: Formerly a psychiatrist at Arkham Asylum, Jonathan Crane was fired after it was discovered he'd been experimenting on the Asylum's inmates. Fleeing from arrest, he took a chemical agent he'd developed and begun to use it on the public, targeting everyone from public officials, to his childhood bullies, to complete strangers. He was eventually captured by The Batman, despite great effort.

| Edward Nashton: The Riddler |

Status: Incarcerated: Arkham
Occupation: Formerly: Forensic Analyst
Personality: Technically Honest, Show-off, Sneaky. He loves to say "I told ya' so." Always admits his wrongdoings or whereabouts via riddles.
Abilities: High Intelligence, Technological Finesse, Forensic Knowledge, Knowledge of Language Sciences and nuances.
History: Edward Nashton always loved to show off how smart he was as a child. He could mentally run circles around the other children, often getting in trouble because he'd 'bent' any rules set in place. Eventually, he grew up and lent his talents to the GCPD, as a forensic investigator, occasionally solving cases before the officers would and hinting at who the true culprit was. He had so much fun with it, he eventually went off the deep end, quitting, and committing crimes to toy with his former coworkers. Later on, he was snagged by The Batman.

[B][Center]| Two-Face: Harvey Dent |[/B]
[/Center]
Status: At Large
Occupation: Professional Criminal: Formerly: District Attorney
Personality: Erratic, sociopathic, and partially psychopathic. He makes his decisions based on the flip of a coin, which he views as the only form of true justice, equality. He is as willing to do good as he is evil, assuming that the coin is in agreement.
Abilities: High Intelligence, Legal Knowledge, Fit Physique, Leadership Skill, Basic Combat knowledge with overwhelming Speed and Opportunistic Savagery.
History: Born into a household of the upper class, Harvey and his sister Jessica grew up emotionally close to Bruce Wayne. Through High School they were considered friends, despite obvious differences in upbringing. During Bruce's disappearance, he was distraught and grieved Bruce's death, later celebrating his return, which coincided with Harvey's appointment as the Head DA. In court, Sal Maroni threw a container of acid at Harvey when half his face was hidden, plaguing the visible half with severe burns. The trauma drove Harvey insane, forcing him to become Two-Face. As Two-Face, Harvey formed a gang and began a spree of crime with emphasis on parallels, justice, and Catch-22s. He has been difficult to capture, to say the least, because of the sentiments felt by the GCPD and The Dark Knight.

This game never did go anywhere, but this had been sitting still for quite a while and I felt like sharing my work.
So, is anyone at work on sheets or stuff right now?
<Snipped quote by Nightrunner>

I have no idea who these people were/are...

Ah, they are the lovely people who frequent the Superherohype forums. They came seeking new players, but shortly after the guild's resurrection have relocated to their original home.
Umm, dude. I'm not criticizing you at all, I'm just saying ever since the hypesters left we've never actually managed to get too far without rebooting every five minutes. It's really not your fault. In all fairness, you just really haven't had enough time to shine like he had. But yes, you were probably worth a mention. At least everyone knows now. *shrugs shoulders*
@Gowi Come on, bro. We both know that MB must have secretly been Alan Moore, if not a surviving version of the bat himself from a previous universe who presented his memoirs as fiction. But, yeah bro. I think highly of your writing, and your bat concepts, I've just never really seen them play out too long. The same could be said of the goat-lover himself, as well, but there's the entire RPG archive to look back on.
