Sorry, I missed yours too!

While he may have a difficult time keeping up with some of the other characters, even Batman, Nightwing, and Robin faught with no powers. APPROVED

Justice League: Rising from the Ashes

Alright, seeing as we have quite a team built up here I am going to start trying to formulate an intro post to draw us all together. I just need one last bit of information from you guys before I start this: What area do we want to start in? Metropolis, Gotham, Star City, Key Stone, or do we just want to start in a real world city?

Justice League: Rising from the Ashes

@Thantos I was just saying that if the RP got too big for me to handle alone, I would most likely enlist your help as GM.

Lets go again!

Hey everyone! I have tried this before, and it kinda worked out but because of some hectic schedules it fell off the radar for the most part. I was thinking about starting it up again because this place needs something like it. An RP that is just for you to have fun, no hard driving story, no worry for characters that fit in, no need to even be serious about it. I want to make (Again) an RP where you can go to just kinda let out your wild side. The first time around I had it more structured like the series FarScape in that the group was on a ship that pretty much had a mind of its own, but acted a lot like a five year old. Each character is actually a clone of their original, but unaware of this fact, which allows for character death to happen quite frequently , and by random means when I rolled a twenty that morning... or a five... or a seven-teen... kinda played it by ear. If things slowed down the ship would throw a tantrum causing someone to die, mostly in a hilarious way, and the best part is all that you would need to do is wake-up again in a random location thinking it was all some sort of dream... or was it??? It was loads of fun and helped me with writers block, so what do you think?

I will ask one question: What kind of setting do we want to try out this time?

Justice League: Rising from the Ashes

@Master CrimHis powers aren't tied to his suit but he uses his hammer-space abilities and his ability to reality warp in conjuncture with his clothing. Water from the hat, a hammer/cane from his pants, or hat. A knife up his sleeve. His fake gun to blast powder onto an evil doer's face or a just to disorient them with a flash. What I meant by he can't break reality I meant that he can't destroy entire planes of existence, he can't warp time (rewind it, flash forward, etc), he can't travel across planes of existence only from one place to another by using a hole (you know those holes cartoon characters use where they go into it but instead of going to the other side the end up somewhere else). He can't make it so that gravity doesn't exist. Things of that nature. As the old saying goes water is wet, ice is cold, and fire burns. He can't change those facts merely alter the conclusion to them. Fire is hot but not hot enough that it will burn me (or I'm wearing something that doesn't burn), water is wet better dry off quickly. You get the point I would hope.

@vancexentan

I am sorry, but every time I try to help down play some of your character's abilities and confront what would be seen as a contradiction you only talk around it, and never go about changing it. Your character could not be stopped by most anything thrown at him save for what could be seen as a boss. Even with a powerful character that would have no problem taking on this team, your character's abilities would grant him almost equal levels of fight. If you are not willing to accept my help trying to get him to fit then we are at an impasse. If we were going with a more Teen Titans style of play, I would be more accepting, but this is intended to lean more towards a Dark Knight/Superman/Red Hood style.

Justice League: Rising from the Ashes

Khnemu

Name: Khnemu

Title/Alias: Sand Beast

Human Form

Transformed

Powers/Abilities:
-Breath of Amun: Khnemu can create heavy winds using his breath, he can also use this ability to fly.
-Organic Sand: Khnemu has the ability to create sand from his own physiology and manipulate it to his whim.
-Beast Transformation: Allows Khnemu to transform into a massive beast composed of sand.

Gear:
-Wraps of Osirus: Khnemu's arms are wrapped with magical linen. Khnemu can throw this linen at opponents with ease and send them flying with a single blow despite the linen's seemingly low weight. Khnemu is also able to wrap an opponent in the linen with little effort, and despite a lack of supernatural strength, toss them overhead as easily as a ragdoll.
-Robes of Nekhbet: Khnemu wears a cloak covered in stones with dedications to vulture god Nekhbet written on them, this cloak seals Khnemu's beast form, only when removed can Khnemu enter his more powerful form. These robes regenerate from any damage taken, but do not grant that ability to Khnemu himself.

Personality: Khnemu is an odd being, his voice never going over a monotone. Khnemu is blunt and unconcerned with social convention, he cares not for conversation and shows no attraction to either gender. Khnemu never utilizes body language, and both facial decay and the mask used to hide it prevent his face from being seen, what's left is his voice, which, as previously described, does not allow him to demonstrate emotion. Khnemu is steadfast in his defense of Earth, even if he has to fight his fellow man to defend it. He hates oath-breakers and will always fulfill a promise, even if it isn't in his best interest to do so.

Bio: Khnemu was once a sorcerer living in Egypt in the Middle Kingdom under Senusret I. Khnemu was a member of a secret cult of sorcerers dedicated to Osiris, all of whom swore to defend Egypt and the land it stood upon from outside threats. According to cult writings during the Late Kingdom, Khnemu was a legendary leader of the cult, ascending to the position after a journey in the land of the dead. Wrapping himself in bandages and closing himself in a sarcophagus, Khnemu entered the land of the dead, first Khnemu walked through Duat's many gates, slaying each of the demons guarding them, granting himself multiple artifacts stolen by them from the gods above.

Coming next to Anubis and Ammit, realizing he had been alive, Anubis decryed his involvement in the land of the dead, siccing Ammit on him. Taking four blows from the demon, Khnemu cast himself at one of Anubis' scales, his whole body was lighter than the feather that sat upon the other scale. Judging him a benevolent soul by his wounds and his weight, Anubis called back his beast and allowed Khnemu entrance into the land of the dead, on the condition he leave and never return, it is through this condition that Khnemu was granted immortality.

Next, Khnemu was set upon by Apep, who wrapped him in his coils and asked if the mortal wished to join the dead who walked the halls of Duat, or be consumed by him, and be forced into the realm of chaos. Not struggling, Khnemu stated that he wished for the snake to eat him and bring him into its belly. Due to the order of Khnemu's actions and words, the chaotic beast was unable to consume him, filling him with his poison with every bite, causing his skin to turn into sand. It was through this that Khnemu was granted his command over the sands.

Khnemu, having just met Apep, was found by Ra, who approached Apep's form and challenged the beast to a battle as he had many times before. Heavily weakened by Khnemu's resistance, Apep was easily slain, unable to understand why this had happened, Ra turned to Khnemu and asked if it had been him who had damaged the mighty snake. Khnemu admitted it, and as punishment, was turned into one of the very demons that wandered the halls of Duat.

Continuing through Duat, Khnemu came upon Horus and Set fighting, intervening, Khnemu sustained blows from both until he was unable to stand any longer, and then he stood again. Faced with unnatural resilience, Horus fled, leaving Khnemu and Set alone, in thanks, Set granted Khnemu power over the winds.

Khnemu entered the paradise of Aaru, but soon after entering, he was again judged by Thoth, who challenged Khnemu to a challenge of knowledge. Back and forth, the two answered each-other's questions, until Khnemu had no answers left to give. Knowing that he couldn't take another of Thoth's questions, Khnemu asked Thoth what the answer to his riddle was. Thoth, amused, asked Khnemu for his riddle. Khnemu, coming up with a riddle never heard before, asked Thoth what has no arms and yet climbs, no wings, and yet flies, no life, and yet dies. Thoth, unable to answer, asked Khnemu for an answer. Khnemu answered that the subject of the riddle was in fact the sun, which climbed over the horizon, flew through the skies, and died at the beginning of the night. Thoth, with a roar of laughter, conceded defeat, and as a reward, granted Khnemu knowledge of man through the times, though not of their fate, as not even the gods knew of such things.

Finally, Khnemu came to Osiris, kneeling before the god, he asked for the ability to protect his land from anything that means to harm it. Osiris, touched by the mortal's tenacity, granted Khnemu back his human form, sealing him in his own wrappings and, from Nakhbet, gifted him robes to protect him. Sending Khnemu back to the mortal realm, he awakened the man to protect Egypt.

After his job had been done, Osiris placed Khnemu into a deep sleep, waiting for a time when he would be needed.

Many long centuries later, after the death of Teth-Adam, the gods lost their last champion in the mortal realm, weakened, the gods used the last of their strength to awaken Khnemu, who, with his endless belief, granted the gods back their power, and with the knowledge of Thoth, returned to the mortal realm to protect the world from outside threats.

@bluetommy2

Just a bit hesitant due to your Bio being a retelling of your character winning the favor of everyone he met. specially when it comes to ancient gods, most times they hated mortals trying to interfere with them and simply smote them for doing so.

BUT~ Assuming that stamina is the bases of his powers and you will no longer have favor from everyone, APPROVED.

Justice League: Rising from the Ashes

@Master Crim Hey! Look at mine ya' dingus!

@bluetommy2

HOW DID I MISS THAT!!!??? SOOOOO SORRY!

Justice League: Rising from the Ashes

Very well I can wait. He is very proficient with his powers. But he can't do things that break reality itself. (...). The best way to keep him locked up, for example, is to put him in a giant white box with no cracks, doors, and without his suit. (...). To make Greg fall you have to surprise him, or force him into a situation where he can't reality warp, or use his innate magic powers to get out of it. (...).

@vancexentan

I am slightly confused every time I read over this statement. You say that he can't break reality, but the very nature of magic, and especially his abilities, does exactly that. It would also appear that the bulk of his abilities are tied to him having his attire with him. If you would be okay with down playing his damage absorption and used his suit, wand, and hat as a tie to his power, much like Dr.Fate's helmet, I can review him again to see if it would work-out. :)

Michael Blair

Name: Michael Blair
Title/Alias: Zorn The Magician
Picture/Description:

Powers/Abilities:
Weird Magic: Michael uses a kind of magic with weird properties and focuses mainly on illusions and conjurations, as well as some elemental spells. With his weird spells, Michael uses illusions to disorientate and confuse as well as frighten enemies. His illusions can range from small to very large. He can make his illusions be both seen and heard. His most powerful illusions can be made solid with incredible effort and it can cause him a lot of fatigue. His conjuration spells allow him to summon inanimate objects for utility purposes as well as weird weapons. His elemental powers allow him to shoot strangely colored balls of fire and bolts of weird shades of electricity. He is also able to disguise himself to blend in and deceive people by changing his looks through the use of magic. Finally he can create barriers of force for protection and is able to fly. The barriers can be broken if too much is applied against them.
Gear(optional): he uses a staff that helps him focus his magical powers.

Personality: Michael is a highly intelligent person, which is normal for magicians and his literacy is way above average. By age five he was reading Edgar Allen Poe and J.R.R. Tolkien. By age ten he had finished reading the English dictionary and all of Shakespeare's work. As a magician he has an incredible intuition and is incredible at finding knowledge. Seeking knowledge and solving problems are what he finds among the most interesting in life.

Being a student of the arcane teachings, Michael is more of a thinking and manipulator than a fighter. He prefers to deceive and disorientate his enemies rather than beat them down through sheer force. Magicians use the art of deception to keep others guessing and second guessing. That is why Michael is incredibly deceptive and good at fooling his foes. Even some of his allies have trouble seeing if he is telling the truth. He even has occasionally bragged about being able to fool even Wonder Woman's lasso of truth.

When it comes to heroism, Michael does what he feels is right and tries to use his magical powers to do some good, but that won't stop him from doing to occasional prank. Michael is a man with secrets and the secrets of his magical arts are what he considers most important to him and thus he refuses to talk about them. He is a believer that one's own prideful words about their abilities can lead to their downfall.

Politically Michael is a centrist who leans to the right. He considers himself a democratic capitalist and believes that the government shouldn't tax the working middle class for socialist agendas. He is a massive anti communist and believes in freedom of speech. Despite not being a religious man, Michael is a firm believer in respecting people's beliefs, but that won't stop him from telling a person that their religion is sick if he feels that it is. Michael is an individualist and hates the concept of collectivism, he believes that real freedom comes from the individual and not the collective.

Bio: Magic has run in his family for generations and for Michael his destiny was no different. Michael was born in Gotham City to a middle class family and had a fairly good childhood considering the bad reputation of the city he lived in. With his incredibly high literacy rate, Michael Blair was able to read an insane amount of books at a young age and his family brought him into the world of the arcane when he turned twelve years. They shared with him their family's secrets of magic and he started to learn the art of Weird Magic. His focus was on Illusions and Conjurations with a bit of elemental magic put in.

His family was surprised at the speed of which he was able to learn and Michael's power grew greatly over his teen years. In this time frame he took the magician name Zorn and met other magic users like him such as the British Con-artist John Constantine and the amazingly powerful Tim Hunter. They introduced him to the more sinister side of the magical arts by battling demons and mad sorcerers to keep the world safe.

Being a magician, Michael had to juggle his secret life of battling supernatural and mundane threats with his normal life as an entertainer and showman. It was hard, but as a self employed entrepreneur, he found it easy to make his schedule. The only thing had problems with was the high taxes of the darn government put on the working middle class for their political agendas.

Being a one man show, Michael never really thought about joining a team before, but when the disappearance of the Justice League happened and more mysterious disappearances happened after that, he decided that it would be better for business to help bring down the crime and try to find out what happened to the other heroes so that he wasn't stuck with doing more heroics. He is Zorn The Magician and with his magic he will bring wonder and terror to the battlefield.

@Weird Tales

I like this guy! Approved.

Combat Android 3645

Name: Combat Android 3645

Alias: George

Picture: 1u88jj3r4db2x4txp44yqfj1.wpengine.netd..

Powers:
Superhuman Strength
Capable of tracking multiple enemy movements
When dual wielding weapons can shoot at two different enemies at once
Remote hacking
Trojan vision (see through smoke)
Night vision

Gear:
Electro Knife
Type-2 Assault Rifle (capable of splitting into dual auto-pistols)
Erad Submachine Gun with Master Key under barrel Shotgun
Dual Oni fully-automatic handgun
Dome Shield

Personality: All George ever wanted to be was a warrior like his father but he was a frail kid that easily broke, which led to depression. He dived deep into computers as a way to “earn” his keep in the resistance. He may not have been able to fight but he was able to help those who did which gave him a sense of purpose. He created a hack that allowed him to remotely pilot the combat androids and fight alongside his father. Like all humans they were hunted down and captured or killed. He was not a warrior so he was not spared the torture of having his brain ripped out of his skull and shoved into a combat android. That memory haunts him to this day and causes severe feedback into his combat android body that disables him for several minutes. When humans persecuted and attacked him he felt betrayed, he had given them a new weapon one that was capable of going where they couldn’t. Their attempts to destroy him didn’t turn him against humanity but made him seek isolation and comfort in his robotic nature. He rarely shows emotion anymore.

Bio: In 2359 the Earth was invaded by an alien, whose sole intent was to harvest all the valuable natural resources, including human brains. Human brains were used as computers in the various technologies but most especially in combat androids. There was a revolution but it had zero chance of success. One day George a hacker was taken alive and managed to prevent having his memories erased through a well-timed virus release. There was no stopping his brain being harvested and installed in a combat android. He and all the ones after him managed to take down that factory but there were others. George and the other sentient combat androids were not openly embraced they were feared and sometimes attacked. They struck out on their own fought for themselves against the aliens and the humans. George and the other sentient combat androids discovered a secret human military base built before the invasion. They made it their home for a while during their investigation of the base they discovered experimental technology that they adapted for their own use. One piece of technology took up entire room with its central piece a giant sphere. After three years of decrypting the central computer they discovered that the technology was an experimental and unfinished time machine. It took another decade to finish it. They couldn’t control where the sphere sent through time and it was a one way trip. George agreed to go by himself.

@Burning Kitty

looks interesting. I also have a time traveler android within my repertoire, they can be very fun to play. I am having some difficulty seeing how your character will be fitting into this band of new coming heros though. If you think you can make it work...

APPROVED

Hey, if you guys are still looking for people then I'm up for Joining in on the fun if you'll have me!

Also @Master Crim, in regards to Samurai Jack vs the Zoro guy, technically Jack never beat Aku (he ALMOST beat him a lot. Lotta bull-shrnarky from Aku if you ask me) but since I don't know nothing about Zoro I'd have to put my vote with Jack too since he's taken on a lot of odds that seemed way to much for him.

@rocketrobie2

We will pretty much always be open, until things become too hectic for me to manage... Might need a to grab my trusty Co-GM if that happens...

>_> @Thantos There may come a time my old friend...

also, I would hate to be the rain cloud of the day, but This Jack vs Zoro stuff is now starting to clog this place. Not saying you guys can't talk about it, but I am gonna say you cant for the time being.

@Almosegosum I am typing my PM to you as you read this!

Justice League: Rising from the Ashes

@Weird Tales I will be looking over your CS and give a verdict tomorrow.

I am heading off to bed. Catch you all tomorrow evening!
