LOL I'd still put 3D Man, Machine Man, and others above the knockoff Capt. Boomerang who's actually wearing a weapon on his face.

My favorite villains at Marvel include Sandman, Rhino, Juggernaut, Morbius, and since playing Lego Avengers I've become a fan of Bengal. I'm sure there's others but I'm currently playing the aforementioned game with the kid right now...

~KL~

@The Kid Lantern

Honestly I recently finished reading thr superior foes of spider-man and I was inspired! :P

Honestly I can really think of who my favourite marvel villains are! I guess it doesn't help that nowadays all marvel superheroes do is fight amongst each other! :P I guess I like Grizzly but mainly because he's just a guy in a bear costume? Again after reading superior foes I really like Boomerang. Ghost is probably up there too with me, as well as Juggernaut, and Songbird if she technically still counts as a villain.

Might not be able to get a post up until monday now as my laptop charger seems to have stopped working and i doubt that i'd be able to get a new one until then! I'll keep updated with my phone of course but large walls of text will be difficult!

Also @Vandy, are the Justice League members getting paid at all? I know that either the Avengers or the League used to get paid at one point, but would Lex be the kind of person to do that?

Just asking as if not, Scotty needs to go find himself an actual job!

Really @Natty, THAT is who you wanted? LOL

~KL~

@The Kid Lantern

Shhh :P

@Natty re: Boomerang

I am fine with it, but I just wanted to make a few comments.

1) Make sure you read the first post in the IC. Shocker appears there.

2) While his empire still exists, the Kingpin is still out of the country, looking after his sick wife (I believe that what it says in my character sheet. Other crime bosses (Hammerhead, Silvermane, the Rose, etc) are trying to fill this vacuum.

3) The "1st" Sinister Six has not formed yet.

@Dedonus

1) yeah I just read through earlier! Can use that to fuel the guy's hatred for the hero!

2) Was not aware of that! No worries! Might just go with one of the others then!

3) Honestly I wasn't planning on this storyline happening any time soon for that very reason! If we ever get to the point however where the team forms and are thdn stopped, then these guys will temporarily take the role!

All-Star Marvel: Audax Mundus Novus - Season 1 (Completed)

and Natty's new character is...

Player Name: Natty

Character You Wish To Play: Frederick "Fred" Myers AKA Boomerang

Moral Alignment (Hero, Villain, Walking the Line): Villain

Affiliation (what group/team/organization, if any, is your character affiliated with?): None as of yet.

Character Origin & Backstory:

Migrating from Australia into the US at an early age, Fred's mother sent him away to baseball for his first summer in the country, in an attempt to get the boy to make friends and to take his mind off the move and her recent divorce. Sending Fred to the camp turned out to be a good decision, as he quickly grew to love the sport, joining his local team after discovering he had the arm to be a great pitcher. He soon began to dream of pitching for a major league team one day. Amazingly this dream seemed to come true, with Fred becoming a professional baseball player in the minor leagues after graduating high school, before entering the major leagues a few years later.

However it was during this time that Fred seemed to fall into a bad crowd, and after a while built up a considerable dept with a local loan-shark. In an effort to payback his debts, Fred began taking bribes to loose games so that his loan-shark could bet on him. This plan backfired tremendously however, with Fred getting caught out and suspended from playing baseball any more. His life fell apart after that, with Fred simply staying home all day and refusing to leave the house.

That was when he was approached by Secret Empire, an international criminal organization who felt that Fred had the potential to be of great use for them due to his world-class pitching skills. Due to his Australian heritage, they aptly named him Boomerang, equipping him with a costume, as well as a collection of razor sharp boomerangs. After robbing a small bank in Brooklyn for the group, Fred wasn't happy with his cut, considering he had done the heavy lifting. Due to this, Fred gave an anonymous tip to the police on the group's location and had them arrested.

Keeping the suit, Boomerang soon branched out on his own, performing a variety of minor robberies. He was soon confronted by the amazing Spider-Man, and after a short scuffle, found himself behind bars. During his time in prison, he began to plot his revenge against the hero, forming a hatred for the guy. He soon discovered that his cellmate, Herman Schultz, had also been apprehended by Spider-Man, with the two bonding slightly over this. Herman soon suggested that they form some kind of team, in order to more easily complete heists, as well as have more firepower once the heroes turned up.

Returning to the streets of New York, Boomerang and Shocker brought this idea to life, inviting both Hydro-Man and Speed Demon to join them.

Powers and Abilities (What can your character do? What can't they do?):

While Myers has no real superhuman abilities, he is skilled in the area of creating and using complicated boomerangs of his own designs as weapons. Examples of his arsenal includes:

Explosive Boomerang: Detonates on contact, damage to all in one area.

Razor Boomerang: A boomerang capable of cutting through bone and flesh when thrown correctly.

Both of these designs are collapsible for easy concealment.

Supporting Cast:

Herman Schultz AKA Shocker: Herman was Fred's cellmate during his most recent stay in the slammer. After getting out the two stayed in touch, working jobs together. Herman is probably the closest thing Fred has to a friend, as well as being the one whom (unfortunately) introduced him to Hydro-Man and Speed Demon.

Morris Bench AKA Hydro-Man: A fellow super villain, Hydro-Man often teams up with Boomerang and Shocker when the opportunity arises.

James Sanders AKA Speed Demon: A speedster, James is as annoying as he is fast. Fred often finds himself wanting to throttle the guy, and the only reason he hasn't is because he's useful.

Sample Story Arcs: Give 2-3 ideas on where you want to go with your character.

Heist of the century: The gang attempt to get their hands on a legendary (possibly made up) artifact that currently lies in the hands of the infamous Kingpin of crime.

The New Sinister Six: After the spectacular Spider-Man apprehends the villainous Sinister Six, Boomerang decides that his crew is good enough as any to take the mantle!

The Thunderbolts: Apprehended once more, Fred finds himself on the raft, although things may not be as bad as they seem when he receives a unique offer from the warden.

EDIT: Thinking about it, I should probably have asked people beforehand about using some of the supporting cast...

All-Star Marvel: Audax Mundus Novus - Season 1 (Completed)

Sure America Chavez had expected to be thrust into a training. Hell, she had even been informed that it would happen seconds before entering the room. However she had at least expected to have had some time for some sort of meet and greet with her new comrades. Maybe just a few introductions, handshakes, that sort of thing. Instead she had found herself tumbling into the floor after having her stomach blasted by Hyperion’s cyclops-beams. Luckily the hit hadn’t been too damaging as America managed to lift herself from the crater she had created with ease. Glancing downwards however, she saw that he t-shirt hadn’t been all too lucky, with a scorch mark covering the lower half of it.

“That was my favourite shirt, chico” she grimaced cracking her knuckles in the classic superhero manner.

Despite wanting to dive straight in however, America hesitated. She thought back to the other day during her encounter with the Hulk. Then she had engaged without thinking, and she knew full well where that had gotten her. Sure this situation was slightly different; as far as she was aware, Hyperion wasn't going to get angrier and stronger the more he was hit, but still America knew she must be careful. No, this time she had to fight smart. She had to come up with some sort of plan. But what?

Then, as if by some divine power, her question was answered. The door to the simulation room slid open with a hiss to the group's left, causing all eyes in the room to turn towards it, as another of the team's new members made his appearance.

“I guess you can call me truant for this shindig.”

The heroes attempt at a joke caused America to stop in her tracks for a second. Honestly looking at this guy, she had no idea who he was. She took note of the red and black costume, as well as the mechanical looking costume upon his head. Due to the oddly specific pun he had made, America could only assume that the guy's abilities were insect related. However that didn't really matter now, as regardless of his abilities, he had already made an astonishing distraction.

America burst forward through the air, rocketing towards Hyperion, swinging her fist wildly towards him as she did so. All she could hope was that his attention was on the new arrival, as if not, this could prove to be highly embarrassing!

I'm going to begin working on a post in about an hour after a get some schoolwork done! Now Ant-Man has arrived the party can get started!

If it's cool, I might introduce a small minor character considering i'm now down to only America so that I can still post if she's ever being held up or something! If that's cool with you anyway @dedonus. If so I'll get a sheet up!

Getting from New York City to Northern California quickly is going to be another thing though, isn't it? Heh.

@Gowi

Just bear in mind that sometimes not every member of a team has to be present at everything. Two to three man/woman operations often run smoother than having six or seven people at something that - in the grand schemes - is relatively minor. Smaller units often make for more chance of character development too. Too many people and you can get overwhelmed by the moment.

@Morden Man

Oh yeah! I like the idea that by the time he's late for the conference or finally gets transport, someone replies on the comms saying they've finished or something :P
