I'd love to be a teenaged CSA member. Like Talon(Robin in Earth-3). Or one of Deathstroke's kids if not the man himself

It depends on the way you go about doing it. If the CSA showed up that might be something we'd wanna make a deal out of. Feel free to do a Deathstroke here. Jericho or Rose are also welcome.

What is the age limit on how old we can be?

Interesting to see Taskmaster as a Titan...

Only Titans are restricted. They must be nineteen or under. All other roles can have any age you desire, within reason of course.

So how tight are we running where you can get characters from? DC/Marvel only or go further into other places?

Yeah, I won't be too strict. Go indie or even pull from other mediums if you want. I just wanna keep a superhero-esque atmosphere going.

She won't be, no. This will be after her adventures in Gemworld.

I approve this message.

I am considering playing Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld based somewhat on the DC Nation shorts version (since whilst I love the original version, I really like how they modernized her too much not to use the new version), but we'll see how that turns out.Interest, at the very least.

The Hub of the game is Earth. I'd rather she not be based in Gemworld.

Actually um, I'd have a lot of interest in playing Iron Fist, um, preferably an altered version who'd be a Titan if that's acceptable. He's really one of my favorite heroes and I guess if making him fill a titan role's isn't okay, then as a Guardian or Den Mother?Sorry for the double posts and the potentially irritating questions, but I've just been really excited by the possibilities of this.

Don't worry. I love the attention. Go ahead and make Iron Fist. You can scale his age down if you want, or not. It's up to you. I made this so that a bunch of my friends and I can have a bit more lighthearted and relaxed game. However, I'm gonna say no to original characters. But you can reimagine existing characters to better suit your playing style.

Is a photo strictly necessary and would you accept drawn pictures instead for those of us who prefer doing that? Also can the biography be less than three paragraphs since lengthy bios are not everyone's strongsuit, or are the guidelines for the signups completely inflexible about these things?On the plus side I like all the cool worldbuilding you've done and applaud it regardless of if I join.

It's fairly flexible and you can draw your own if you want. And three paragraphs is just a suggestion. It's just recommended if possible.

Welcome friends. This game is a salute to teenage superheroes everywhere. Marvel, DC, or otherwise. So, beffittingly, it is called Titans. The game is truly meant to be Casual in nature, so long posts are welcome, but not absolutely necessary. Also, the game is intended to involve a large amount of interaction between players. So solo adventures are discouraged, but not completely banned. If you are interested in playing, please speak up, even if you are not sure you will partake.

_____Key_Organizations_&_Teams___________________

Teams

▪Avengers: SHIELD's elite private army. All of which have sacrificed the secrecy of their identities for the entirebacking of SHIELD and public sanctification through mainstream media. They are hailed world-wide as heroes and the collateral damage they cause is dealt with by SHIELD as is the crowd control.

▪Young Avengers: Monitored by SHIELD and trained extensively, the members of this team sacrificed their secret identities to SHIELD so that they could be treated as a government asset. They are the most closely monitored team and the most reinforced. They are usually monitored by various Avengers.

▪Infinity Inc: A team of various youngsters completely unmonitored by an elder team, but inspired by the JSA.

▪Justice League: They are not sponsored by the government and are legally considered criminals because of their refusal to surrender their secret identities. On the other hand, they, almost as much as the Avengers, are publically looked up to. But unlike the Avengers, they have no one to clean up their messes, so they tend to be more cautious.

▪Teen Titans: The only team without a staff closely monitoring them, the Teen Titans have the most privacy and fewest regulations. As a whole, they are the most independent from their mentors. Though the android Red Tornado has been assigned to monitor them.

▪Justice Society: The world's first team of superpowered individuals, the JSA were a symbol of hope for the future, equality, social justice, and safety. By now the senior members identities are public knowledge and the younger members are left alone out of respect for the older ones.

▪SHIELD: A worldwide peacekeeping task force with astounding utilities, resourceful operatives, and a thorough database of the known universe. It is based on a flying warship called the Helcarrier. And it has, both publicly and in secret, intervened to save the planet many times.

▪X-Men: A team of adult mutants directed by Charles Xavier. They serve one basic purpose: To fight for mutant rights. That includes rescuing fellow mutants from the government, saving the Earth as a whole, and stopping other mutants from committing horrendous crimes.

▪New Mutants: Taught at Charles Xavier's school, these youths are students as well as trainees to become the next generation of X-Men. They are trained often in The Danger Room and are monitored by the staff of Xavier's school. In the field, they are on their own for the most-part.

_____LEGENDS______________________________________

Tales of The Predecessors

These are the adults of the world with information that is unlikely to change and can give insight to what characters are established. These lists serve mainly so that players can't muscle each other out of characters by saying 'That hasn't happened yet' or something of the like.

▪Batman: The Dark Knight himself is Bruce Wayne. He has officially claimed several young males as Robin, the current being his flesh-and-blood son. Previous trainees include: Dick Grayson, Red Robin, Red Hood, Batgirl, Spoiler, and Black Bat. Related characters include: Batwoman, Flamebird, Azrael, and more. It is to be assumed that Batman has met the majority of his rogues gallery, though the Justice League has not.

▪Spider-Man: Peter Parker is the wall-crawling vigilante that has been lauded by some as the greatest hero of all time. At this point he is twenty-nine tears old and married to Mary Jane Watson. His legacy characters include: Steel Spider, The Prowler, Scarlet Spider, Kaine, Ricochet, Prodigy, Spider-Woman, Spider-Girl, Arana, Dusk, Alpha, and Hornet. It is to be assumed that he has also met the majority of his rogues gallery.

▪Superman: Clark Kent is a hero hailing from Krypton. He has a multitude of super powers and is considered one of the most powerful beings alive. His legacy characters include: Superboy, Supergirl, Matrix, Power Girl, Steel, and Vaporlock. As with previous entrees, it is to be assumed that he has met the majority of his rogues gallery.

_____RULES_________________________________________

Rules

* Please apply for only one character at a time. As time goes on, you may gradually be allowed more characters. There is no blanket statement for how many you may have. Your total allotted character limit is based on my perception of how responsible you are as a player.

* There will be no calling dibs for characters. Every character is available to every player from the start - players cannot lay claim to any character without posting a complete character application. The game shall run on a first come first serve basis, unless prior interest is expressed, in which case the GM may wait for a competing application.

* Do not post an incomplete application in the OOC.

* You are required to post at least twice every 7 days per 'Titan' although it is preferred for you to post more. Mentors, Guardians, or Villains require at least one per week.

* You must post in the IC thread within three days of its approval. Failure to do so will signify a writer's block or worse--lack of interest!

* Player Characters may not be killed without permission from the player said character belongs to. It is preferred thay you alert the GM if you plan on killing a named NPC. However, unnamed NPCs are fair game.

* Several storylines can be going on at once, in order to interact with other players. If a player's character does not want to be involved in another's storyline, they do not have to. Consultation and communication are key to good PC-to-PC interaction.

* For this game, we'd like to maintain an atmosphere that resembles Western-styled comics. So sources we are likely to accept from include: Comic books, video games, movies, and cartoons. If your character is taken from manga, anime, folk tales, or legends, you may be judged harshly.

* Your character has the right in the story to travel wherever they actually have the means to go.

* Time-travel is not permitted without the specific permission of the GM.

* Absolutely no insulting your fellow players.

* If you wish to apply for an anonymously run character, PM your app directly to the GMs, followed by all related posts.

* Stay in character. Do not break character, and try your best at all times to be consistent with the personality you've established.

* Players may make any application they'd like. However approval will only come if all the fields are properly filled out and the CS is consistent with current continuity. Feel free to reimagine existing characters in the style of Marvel's Ultimate Universe.

* Obey your (Game)Master! He GM reserves the right to kick any player out as necessary.

* Any Adult characters picked up to be played should be used in a way to directly interact with youths (No solo Batman adventures chasing Clayface in the sewers).

* If you wish for another Team to be formed, Privately Message the GM account to discuss its purpose and structure. The same procedure should be followed for any proposed amendments to the rules.

* All regular Guild rules apply. Failure to comply will result in a report filed after a warning is issued and an opportunity to make amends is denied.
