Omega Man — Roleplayer Guild

Name: Josiah 'J' Walker
Alias: Overwatch

Age: 20

Powers/Skills: Has light weight body armor, a tech glove that's basically a five fingered laptop that can jack into anything, hacking skills, good with anything involving tech. He's also good at sneaking around and being stealthy. 

Weaknesses: Average human weaknesses. His light armor only protects him from small arms fire. Certain areas vulnerable to bladed weapons, and heavy arms fire can rip through the armor. Never gets enough sleep, always up late on the computer or tinkering with his glove. Average h2h skills for someone with little to no training. He's watched 'Rocky' like a hundred times and a huge fan of ex-boxer Ted Grant. 

Alignment: Hero
Personality: Honest, blunt, scatter brained, impatient, tired
Appearance: 

BRIEF Bio: J was born and raised in Gotham, Park Row in the Bowery. He came from a poor family, and his dad was a drunk. However he acceled in computer classes and tech and eventually came to create his hacking gauntlet. Able to jack into nearly any computer network, J got himself out of his home situation when he used his hacking skills to make an ATM spit out over three thousand dollars shortly after his eighteenth birthday. J got a cheap place of his own, however he still checked in on his monther weekly.

After a year of using his hacking skills to pay the bills, he was approached by Batgirl to help her defeat another hacker called the Calculator in a borough on the outskirts of Gotham called Burnside. He was inspired into creating a costumed identity of his own and has hacked the radio signal in Batgirl's cowl more than once the last several months to aid her against a splinter cell of Kobra. Now after the death of Batman, Babs assumed the mantle of Batwoman and asked J [called Overwatch now] for assistance with hacking behind enemy lines to stop a warhead from being sold on the Gotham black market. 

Now with one victory and assist under his non existant belt, J hopes to one day be a vital resource in the fight against the Gotham underworld.

Storylines: 

* Barbara and Dick were the only sidekicks in this universe, so J will fall into the role that was once Babs' and get access to the Belfry early on. 

* I want to go up against the Calculator [again] and a couple hired goons [like Deadshot and maybe... Capt. Boomerang?]. No idea what the finer details would be at this point LOL

* Babs and maybe a hero with more exp than J can train him in h2h and he'll begin carrying a baton as a weapon. 

Notes: [maybe if I think of something...]

GOTHAM CITY REBORN

It all began the day that Batman was reported dead at the hands of an enemy of the Justice League, a demon called Neron. Crime boomed again in the darkened city, and Batman's two most trusted allies were left to take care of Wayne Enterprises and the city itself. Dick Grayson saw to it that the world still believed Bruce Wayne was alive. Using some of the same make-up that went into the creation of Clayface, Grayson assumed the identity of Bruce Wayne with the help of Alfred and Bruce's corporate friend Lucius Fox. It was more work than the former sidekick ever imagined, and with all the gossip on Wayne in the tabloids Dick managed to be a better billionaire playboy philanthropist than even Bruce in his younger years. He even put on an additional thirty pounds of muscle to look the part. Barbara Gordon on the other hand, had the weight of the city resting on her shoulders...

Grayson had things covered making sure the world believed Bruce was still alive. Batman's contingency plan for Batgirl however had her taking more of a role in protecting the streets at night. Babs didn't think 'Batgirl' was the answer. When Grayson was a kid and needed help when Batman wasn't around he formed the Titans. So the idea in Barbara's mind was to recruit other heroes in the fight to protect the city. Bruce's contingency plan included a new base of operations, 'the Belfry' which was cloaked and right in the heart of the city. Batgirl wasn't the answer though. Babs spent the next two nights modifying gear, and even dying her hair black, and rechristened herself as Batwoman. What other would be heroes and possible metahumans will she meet and ally herself with? What new threats await Batwoman and the new champions of Gotham?

All New Batwoman:

New HQ, the Belfry:

Map of Gotham:

In the comics there are quite a few heroes and villains to come out of Gotham. You can reimagine one of the existing ones, create an original character, or even be a cop from the GCPD or a thug in the Jokerz gang if you want. There's even a group of street kids trying to be the next Robin or Batgirl... The idea is for this RP to be a sandbox, with Batwoman as a GM NPC moving any larger plots forward. You can come in and do your own thing, join a group of heroes along with Batwoman to defend Gotham, or you could even do something like come in as a newspaper reporter or be a civilian living in the same crazy world as the rest of us. 

The RP is loosely based on the current arc of Detective Comics and uses new concepts such as the Belfry, as well as my Titans of Gotham RP from awhile back. Rather than use the current Batwoman, I had Babs step up and assume the mantle to inspire others. The biggest difference in this RP and the Titans RP is in this game you can be a hero OR villain of any age. And rather than Grayson/Robin being the dead guy, it's Bruce/Batman. 

Any interested players can look to the iCheck for this RP for more details and CS requirements. I'll be going over completed Character Sheets shortly and assembling the group for the game. Any new applicants can go ahead and post them here in the OOC but only accepted sheets will be asked to post in the Character Tab. Accepted players and characters will also be edited into this post over time.  

GM NOTES 6/24/16 : Still room in this at the moment.
