Bio


You JUST scrolled down!


Hello out there! My name's Mason. I like a lot of random stuff like comics, Masters of the Universe, M*A*S*H, X-Files, conspiracy theories, as well as a good superhero themed role play! I'm more of a DC freak than a Marvel zombie but I did grow up on mutants and 3rd string heroes. Once in awhile I'll make a few micros in MSPaint for my RP's because I love designing heroes as much as I do writing/reading about them. I'm about to try and get another random themed game off the ground, if you're interested gimme a shout!



My top RP's on the Guild:

Young Justice 2020
Justice League Unlimited
Titans of Gotham
Champions of Engine City
Marvel Reborn
Legion of Superheroes Return [stat based]


Top Characters:

Ditto - Young Justice series
Bulleteer - Justice League Unlimited
Leviathan - Titans of Gotham
Fastlane - Champions of Engine City
the Thing II - Marvel Reborn
Ultra Boy II - Legion of Superheroes Return


I've been RP'ing for awhile. I mostly RP to keep my writing skills up to par, and I generally RP between Casual and Advanced. I've been a member of the guild for quite a bit, pre Guildfall even. Ninety percent of the time you'll find me in some superhero themed RP or something based off of another fandom like MotU or Power Rangers. Currently in the process of developing my own comics!

Favorite DC heroes (I won't go into villains to save space) in no order: Aquaman, Hawkman, Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner), Superboy (the clone), Swamp Thing, Starman, Animal Man, the Ray (90's era), Impulse, Captain Atom, and Batman Beyond.

Favorite Marvel heroes list: Human Torch I & II, Capt. Mar-Vell, Black Bolt, the classic Destroyer, Havok, Multiple Man, classic Scarlet Spider, Spiderman 2099, Nova, and Colossus.

OTHER FAVORITES: Space Ghost, the Rocketeer, the Maxx, Shadowhawk, Green Hornet, Madman, Doctor Star/Andromeda, the Phantom, He-Man, and Zorro.

Anybody else? I fear this idea may not have the interest needed to move onto an OOC and IC thread either... :/

@rocketrobie2 A new take on Crimson Dynamo would be cool.

~KL~
Yeah that's cool. Just remember the possibilities are limitless. Since this is a reimagined universe you can alter the characters any way you need that doesn't involve the short list of characters who're off limits.

~KL~
I'll work on an opening post to get my guy into town. I guess we'll play it all by ear then and just see what happens?

Legacy: the Rocketeer
WW II Predecessor: Cliff Seacord [1940's], Michael Korben [1970's and 80's]
Name: John Korben
Alias: the Rocketeer III
Relationship to Predecessor: Great nephew of Seacord. Oldest son of Michael Korben.
Age: 28
Powers/Skills/Equipment:

* Rocket pack that can reach speeds of 220 mph. Recently coated with strange
unbreakable alien alloy to make the rocket pack more durable.

* Carries a pair of custom 'Silver Heat' .45's.

Weaknesses: Standard human weaknesses for anyone in light body armor.

Appearance:



Predecessor's History: Seacord fought Nazi invaders in the 40's along with members of the Justice Society as well as the occasional supervillain. His nephew Michael eventually found the rocketpack, coated it with an unbreakable alloy, and used it himself in the 70's and 80's as more of a rights activist superhero for the people.


BRIEF Bio:

John Korben was a 90's kid from Ohio and knew about his father's heroic exploits in the 70's and 80's as the second Rocketeer. It wasn't until graduating high school in '07 that John learned his great uncle was also called the Rocketeer back during WWII and helped the Allied forces. Originally just toying around with the rocketpack and flying it around on weekends, the closer the time of invasion came the harder John trained. Playing sports in high school had kept him in relatively good shape, and he was currently enrolled in community college after taking a few years off from the books choosing to stay closer to home after his father had become ill. However John had taken to shooting guns at some point and became a crack shot even when flying at near top speeds in the rocketpack.

The invasion of D.C. came seemingly from nowhere. Within minutes the Axis army of Master Man teleported into the region, while other Nazi superhumans deactivated the nation's nuclear weapons. The armies marched on DC for days killing all those who would stand against them, and Master Man himself executed the President on live television ripping the woman in half.

The military and National Guard have tried for weeks to make a way back into the capital and gain ground but their efforts have all amounted to nothing. If the human armies of the Axis/Nazi superhumans falter one of the superhuman generals steps in.

John knew where he was needed and had an ex girlfriend on the other side of Virginia who could give him safe passage and a place to stay. Using more lightweight armor and a new helmet of his own design, John flew into action as the newest ROCKETEER.

Additional Notes: Gave a few details about the day Master Man and his Nazi/Axis forces teleported into the nation's capital.

Finished that up I think...

During World War II superhumans and costumed heroes became a staple of American culture much in the same way the genre is in today's world. However, in this world they actually existed in both eras and superheroes worked with the Allied forces to defeat Hitler and his superhuman Axis Army. Now, the great grandchildren of heroes long past their prime take up the reigns to combat against the forces of the Fourth Reich.

In the year 2000, the Fourth Reich began to build their army. With their own genetically modified superhuman dubbing himself the 'Master Man' leading the way with his flight, strength, and durability, it wasn't long before the new army came into power and occupied several areas of Europe. Several superpowered freedom fighters have made headlines in Paris, Rome, and Spain such as the Knight, Spartan, and the Whip.



In the year 2017, Master Man and his forces invaded the United States' capital, Washington D.C. When the superhuman war came to the nation's doorstep, the superhumans, vigilantes, and even the superpowered criminals of the generation came together to fight the Nazi supermen. In this RP, players can take inspiration from cannon characters from WWII or create their own original legacy in the story of how even the criminals of the nation fight against the country's enemies. However, you can also opt to make a supervillain on the side of the Fourth Reich. All heroes and legacies except for a few bigger names are up for reinterpretation. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Captain America, Green Lantern, and the Flash are all off the table however if you want there's still tons of similar characters out there like the Whizzer for the Flash, Ms. America for Wonder Woman, folks like Patriot could stand in for Capt. America, etc.



I'm taking inspiration from the Rocketeer myself and making the grandson of the original the new man in the rocket pack.

Just testing the waters with an iCheck for now because my last two haven't amounted to much in terms of interest leading to completed Character Sheets and an OOC. I'm hoping the WWII / WWIII themes and creating a legacy is a bit more appealing than standard superhero team RP's. Looking for a team of around 6-8 players including myself with a wide range of characters. If there's a lot more interest in playing invaders in the Fourth Reich I may accept more players for this.

But again, just looking for some interest now and then I'll get to posting Character Sheet requirements. Looking for high casual standards with this one! Who's ready to go to war with Nazi superhumans?!?
