That's a neat idea. Unfortunately, we already have someone who is in control of a pocket dimension, he's been PMing me. Such texts are probably in the hands of the White Fellowship of Sorcerers but they could be in your personal possession. When you say magic knight, do you mean an enchanted warrior or a full-on battle mage? We kinda have the former.

Shanks, I am as well. We might not get properly going until Monday as I'll be gone for the weekend. But we're definitely off on a good start.
Yog, your character looks pretty good so far. No major issues I can see. I look forward to the finished product.
EDIT: Mat, I like the look of the CS so far. Keep it up.
Wormgod, If you want a good indicator for the basis of the Magic System look at the Dresden Files. As in that series, magic is a highly malleable force and is different for every person. Some people rely on rituals while others have a large amount of personal power. It's ultimately up to you what kind of magic-user you become.
At this point we have a few magic characters here and some others are contemplating their own. After all of these submissions come in, I'm going to ask that we beef up on Metahuman characters with a diverse set of skills.
And like I said before. Racial/Cultural diversity would be nice.

The RP will start in the middle of the League's first meeting in Chicago. Each of the characters will have been sent an invitation to the meeting and everyone starts there. The first mission starts a little after that. Hopefully this avoids the whole 'hey, how are you' phase a lot of rps stumble on in the beginning.
EDIT: Lucian, I kinda saw that too but He-Man seemed an apt analogy as well as Excalibur isn't a flying brick like Captain Marvel. This Universe did have a real Merlin, but no one is quite sure where he went off to. So his contact having the codename Merlin is fine, but him being actual Merlin isn't. As for Zack, by skills I mean does he have any exceptional qualities? Is he a quick thinker? A negotiator? Things like those. Skills don't have to be physical or technical, as I said. But you're right, you don't want too many skills to start with. But your character should have at least one quality that adds something to the mix.

Thank you Zeus. Also the OOC and CS for my RP is up if you're still interested in participating.

Shanks, I'm glad we cleared it all up and I'm very happy that we have you onboard.
We need everyone who already posted to finish up and maybe some more sheets before we can officially start the roleplay. But everyone who indicated interest can continue working on sheets even after we start. And as always theres always room for more players.
Lucian, your character seems pretty solid so far. There's only a few concerns I have. In your full sheet, I'd like for there to be a plausible reason for an eighteen-year old to stumble on one of the greatest magical artifacts of all time. You could age him up a few years if you want, that might make it more plausible. Also keep in mind that the White Fellowship of Sorcerers is just that, an organization of Sorcerers. Excalibur could be one of their allies but he wouldn't be a full-time member. Sorcerers are kinda elitist like that. You could also have him be the Champion of some Modern-day Knightly Order if you want, a few of those guys are still around and are on surprisingly good terms with the magic users. Those Templars however...
I'd like for all of the more incredible powers the suit and sword have to be the 'upper limit' if you will of its powers. Normally, I'd like for the suit and sword to not allow you to completely ignore attacks or cut through absolutely everything. Your character should still be able to sustain some injury and I'd like for there to be badass sword fights and not have you cut through the other guys blade instantly haha. Also your powers should have some kind of cost. Perhaps it takes a physical toll or needs a magical recharge but it should cost something. It's fine for Zack to not be that special but he should have some quality that explains how he obtained the sword. Otherwise if he didn't have the sword and had absolutely nothing special about him, he might be kinda useless. Of course he could pick up some skills as the roleplay progresses.
Also he might want a codename that's something besides his weapon but that's just a nitpick haha. Just keep in mind everything else I said for your full sheet and you should be fine. And I'm kind of reminded of He-Man for some reason.
And to everyone else, I'll always make time to give my feedback. But don't be afraid to ask other players for their feedback. I'm not the be-all, end-all of what consitutes good writing.

Ah ok, now that clears it all up. I'm sorry if that feedback offended you, but my first impression was that the CS seemed haphazard as you say. But I am more than satisfied by your explanations. Occupation doesn't necessarily mean your character actually has to have a job. They can be unemployed if you want. So that detail can be left in or put out at your own discretion. Thank you for alleviating my concerns and you are officially the first player to be accepted into the RP.
Perhaps, perhaps. It would certainly be interesting.
I was wondering if there was more room here. I'm trying to see if I can both GM and play in an RP haha. Also Wonder Woman needs someone to represent her.

So far this roleplay is getting quite a few people's interest, but there's almost always room for more.
