Secondaries/Background Heroes

Atom Smasher - Changed my secondary to fill out the roster a bit better and to add an NPC for those affiliated with Infinity Inc.
Doctor Fate - Solid choice.
___________ DD needs to choose somebody if she wants to.
The Shade - We don't need two guy's with shadow powers.
Amazing Man - Solid choice.
___________ Our new Hawkwoman needs a secondary, unless the player doesn't want to include one.

Also, I haven't heard from R2 in a few days so I put in MSABAM in there as a place holder.

Titans Academy

For anybody reading this and not checking Discord, this thing isn't dead LOL. Slowing working on finishing up Episodes 1 & 2 ad then we'll be moving straight along with the entire gang into Ep. 3 to introduce the next team mentor and combat trainer... ARSENAL.

Currently our Co-GM is having computer issues, and another player @Wxer has been silent for a bit (we all hope you're doing okay!).

Stay tuned.

The Justice Society

@Divine Darkness Yeah go ahead and PM me any other details. Probably gonna use that first story idea for an episode or three...

@Nightwing95 Still got plenty of room! Can't wait to see it...

The Justice Society

@Omega Man Sounds good. Just wondering though for when I go sifting’ through characters I might want to try; do they have to have been a part of JSA or can they be from one of those affiliate teams linked on the first post? Mercy was a part of Infinity Inc for a bit which was the reason I tried writing her up.

Gonna go lookin’ again for something/someone I’d like to write and get a CS up ASAP!

@rocketrobie2

They could be from an affiliate team but some of them don't ever cross over, that's why I posted the team links rather than the lists comicvine had as some of them weren't complete or used many characters from across the multiverse. Like Plastic Man is sometimes used with the Freedom Fighters but he's never been JSA. Same for Green Arrow, he was a member of the classic 7 Soldiers but never in the Society. I actually forgot about that weird Countdown era Infinity Inc that spawned from the Everyman Project. That team is more tied to Superman than the JSA like it was originally. With the 7 Soldiers characters there's room for some of the newer ones to cross over like the second Shining Knight, Boy Blue, and the Whip... but then at the same time there's several other characters that just don't fit like the second Mister Miracle and Klarion the Witch Boy.

Knowing how well you write young characters I think Jakeem Thunder or just modernizing Johnny Thunder would be dope to see. I mentioned Silver Scarab earlier because I loved the take we came up with for the JL Losers 1x1 we did for a bit and I know you have a big soft spot for Ted Kord.

For anybody watching this, a handful of characters off the top of my head I'd LOVE to see in this RP:

Invisible Hood, Red Torpedo, Silver Scarab, Atom-Smasher, Brainwave, Hawkgirl, Dr. Fate, STRIPE, Crimson Avenger, Sandman/Sanderson Hawkins, the Ray, Human Bomb, Black Condor, Liberty Belle, Johnny Quick, Capt. Marvel/Shazam or Black Adam, Iron Munroe, Damage... I could go on for awhile so I'm just gonna stop there.

The Justice Society

First thing to take care of is the confusion with the secondary characters. This is just a character for background use, not necessarily a supporting character for your heroes. It’s as much a character for my use as it is yours. For instance when setting up a villain, rather than have them attack your characters a few secondary characters will take one for the team, or be possessed by a villain, or whatever the scenes call for.

I tried giving notes on everything posted in the thread. Even the approved sheets had some things that needed to be altered. Nothing major, but I’m just looking for certain types of characters for this.

@Birdboy – Shining Knight – APPROVED! The only thing I would need altered is the Secondary character. I like the idea you already have a backup guy if your primary hero falls in battle, but for the reasons I mentioned above I need another established hero. Since you’re using Shining Knight I’d recommend another 7S character like Vigilante, Crimson Avenger, or even a still alive non-traitor Boy Blue.

@Divine Darkness – Artemis – CS Incomplete – Still looking forward to what you come up with though. It’s been awhile since the Society had an archer in its ranks.

@Archmage MC – the Runekeeper – As is its not what I’m looking for. The character would need reworked into the DCU and it doesn’t seem ‘superhero’ enough. I dig that look though.

@Blizz – Nocturne – APPROVED! Only notes I have are for the Secondary Character again. Change it up to somebody we can beat on.

@Martian – Jade – APPROVED! I love Jade, but this reads like an old wiki focusing on that 90’s era of GL, right down to the plant powers. Drop the stuff with Kyle Rayner and getting a ring and just keep her as her own hero and she’s good. Maybe make Amazing Man your Secondary Character?

@rocketrobie2 – Mercy – Not what I’m looking for. I like that you thought outside of the box but there are no ties really to the legacy of the JSA with this one, and I’ve always just seen her as Lex Luthor’s bodyguard. That whole ‘Everyman Project’ era was weird af. If you just want somebody with a bionic arm there’s that version of Magog that was in the JSA, basically DC’s spin on Marvel’s Cable and the extreme anti-heroes of the 90’s. You’ve written Capt. Marvel/Shazam and Silver Scarab in past RP’s, I’d love to see you rework one of them again for this.

The Justice Society

@Divine Darkness We're only gonna be a few weeks into this new Society. Looks like some folks might have to change CS's a bit. I'm making dinner then I'll give everything posted a proper read...

Titans Academy

Everybody doing okay? I know there was some bad bad weather down in Florida, not sure if anybody was effected. Haven't heard from a couple folks in the Discord lately though! Hope everyone is safe!

The Justice Society

I should ask before I make my sheet. Will characters gain new abilities during the RP, or should they start with everything they'd have? Also notice this character is far more marvel than DC, as a lot of attacks are kind of similar to ghost rider, although shes ranged instead of melee.

@Archmage MC

There's the bit in the CS requirements about Sample Storylines. The Potential Episode or the Potential Sub-Plot could either one be used to level up your hero's powers.

The Justice Society

@Omega Man See I couldn't even tell you that much! LOL imma go work on my character sheet, I'm wondering since Fury is descended from an amazon could I take their abilities and make them her own but add something special like Wonder Woman has? It's just a thought and it might make a character arc easier to work with

@FrostWolf

I just remembered they remade Fury in the Earth 2 series a few years back. Biggest difference visually is she isn't blonde and wearing as much gold, but for an Amazon tied to the same island as WW she looks pretty dope.



DC has a ton of great heroes and concepts just sitting on the shelf. Its a damn shame they don't publish books with more of these characters.

The Justice Society

@Omega Man
Do you have a minimum age requirement for characters?

I have a few ideas, yet some involve canon characters that have either traditionally started their careers as teenagers or their best-known intepretation is that of a teen. (One character I'm considering is technically so young in the comics I'll have to age her up so much that she'll be an OC.)

@Divine Darkness

You could age a character up, make an older character young again, there's a few different ways to rework a canon. Jakeem Thunder is usually one of the younger members along with Stargirl and Shazam's alter ego Billy Batson. Then you've got characters who debuted in the 40's who're still around.
