So, late heads up, but it applies for the future anyway, mondays and tuesdays are not great days for me getting online. Sometimes I can keep an eye on the threads, but I'm unlikely to make any kinds of posts.

So let me try to hit things in order.

@soren

Character looks good, but I think we already had that hashed out okay

@webboysurf
Character is good.

@EldarionI
Character is good.

@tobiax
Oh wow, okay. Yeah, that's all fine. I'll have to see the character attached to it. Any particular reason he doesn't wall crawl?

You might be losing me on specific and various comic book knowledge, but I don't see why we having the same origin would make the spider sense not work. But I also don't really get how it's supposed to work in the first place. I think if it comes to it, whoever has the stronger Spider Sense can sense or sneak up on someone with a weaker one.

@Burning Kitty

New power set is fine

I hadn't thought of adding more points in, but we might do.

Hey, let me know if I missed anything.

As to this discussion, the only thing I will say is just to make sure the character doesn’t get to be unforgivable. Everyone can be antagonistic early on, but I’d rather we not be each other’s enemies.

Character

Name: Bruce Bailey III
Age: 17

Background: An average student, despite his father’s meteoric career in genetics. Bruce lives with his single father, who at the very least tries to be involved and understanding.
Bruce’s main claim to any kind of glory or public recognition is as a runningback on his high school football team. He’s a dedicated kind of person, who puts himself into what’s important to him, even if that’s not always what others would want for him.

Hero name: Wolf Spider
Costume: Athletic spandex, off-brand and purchased online, in bulk. He is padded at the knees and elbows(in black), and wears knee-length joggers so his junk isn’t constantly on display. Black gloves, and black toe-shoes on his hands and feet.
The shorts are beige, and the spandex is brown digital camo pattern.
The mask is solid beige in color, and patterned after Spider-Man’s, for obvious reasons. It is, however, actually made of a hard polymer, more of a helmet. Bruce 3D printed it in the school’s lab after school, using a model of Spider-Man’s head he found online. The interior is lined with soft gel strips cut from shoe in-soles(bought new for this purpose, not taken out of old shoes) and the eyes are made from sunglass lenses. Altogether, Bruce is rather proud of this particular project.

Powers:

Super Strength: 30
Speed and Agility: 30
Spider Sense: 0
Durability: 20
Accelerated Healing: 20
Camouflage: 0
Venom Blast: 0

Look, I’m not going to argue about whether or not it’s wrong to hurt and kill people because someone similar to them once hurt you.

@Burning Kitty Making people suffer and die for your own personal grudge is evil behavior.

@Avanhelsing Yeah, that's not a problem at all.

@Thecrash20@Burning Kitty Both look good, thanks for the apps.

The only thing I would say to you, Kitty, is just to make sure she stays somewhere in the neutral to good range(thinking DnD style alignments). She doesn't look like she would slip into "evil" territory, but I just want to make sure I say so now.

Oh my bad, I saw it and forgot to address it.

How long ago are we talking?

I don’t think Peter, but if we include him it might be a younger Miles Morales. I’ll have to get back to you on who he would be dating, though honestly it doesn’t have to be anyone known or anything.

And both of those powers sound fine, but I will ask that it be one or the other, not both.

EDIT: actually, screw it, both is fine. I kind of like the almost monstrous direction the character might go with this.

@Helios J Mears looks good, I might suggest the organic webbing last a bit longer, though. Maybe an hour, if you want it to be faster dissolving than Peter’s web fluid.

Spider-Men, interest check and co-gm search.

@Burning Kitty

Correct! There are just some powers that you wouldn’t be a Spider-Person without. And I know people are going to vary possibly quite a bit, so there needs to be some

Webbing will not be organic, unless you want to use your variant power slot for it. If any character wants to be the sort of genius who could reverse engineer a sample of Parker’s fluid, feel free to let me know. Otherwise I’ll proceed as planned and have an outside benefactor provide it.

No, you don’t have to have every power, feel free to leave some at 0. Hell, feel free to leave most of them at zero and just be like super strong or something.

I don’t know about trading for a second variant. What two variants did you have in mind?

Spider-Men, interest check and co-gm search.

@Apocalypse Subject to individual review, yes. I actually put a part in there for power variants.

Spider-Men, interest check and co-gm search.

Garfield High: Last year’s graduating class was about 1500, and this year’s looks to be bigger. A growing school on the North-Eastern end of Staten Island, the administration is only just now starting to realize that they might need to expand their facilities. Academic scores are average, though thanks to Stark Industries, they have a very impressive science lab(but what New York school doesn’t, now?).

The surrounding neighborhoods are more on the suburban end, and quite boring for most teenagers, so the most popular weekend or after school activity is to take the ferry to Manhattan, or the bridge to Brooklyn.

All in all, a pretty normal school in a pretty normal neighborhood. Nobody could predict that it would become the center of amazing events.

Some minor background, and here's a CS to play around with. Feel free to post one so I can peruse them.

Name: Obvious.
Age: 18 is the oldest. Though events start in a high school, you don’t have to be a student there, so younger is allowed too, but remember that that would put more pressure on you to get your character involved.
Appearance: Pictures are acceptable, no anime though.
Background: Doesn’t need to be much. I expect this RP will begin with the most interesting part of every characters life.

Hero name: This and the costume will develop in the RP, but feel free to decide it ahead of time.
Costume:
Powers: You have 100 points(or percentage, or whatever) to divide between these abilities.

Super Strength:
Speed and Agility:
Spider Sense:
Durability:
Accelerated Healing:
Camouflage:
Venom Blast: A neurotoxin delivered through direct contact, usually through the hands.
Variant: Anything new, this will be subject to approval, but if you can justify it being related to spiders, you’ll probably be good.
