Omega Man — Roleplayer Guild

I'm working on a response to the bank scenario. Been reading all afternoon, good job people!

I've got I think four posts to read before I can make a post with my guy, I started an opening the other day then a bunch of life shit happened LOL. Had to work on a new (used) truck I just got that crapped out on me Friday evening. I DID come up with some stuff as far as villains go, another founding member of the Alliance will turn up dead, its gonna get nuts. 

Also, I'll have a little extra time to RP cause the fam is going out of town. I do work Monday next week though, but then I get a four day weekend. 

Anybody else looking at this thing?

@DracoLunaris PyroJack was a dope af villain to introduce on the spot. Wasn't sure where the fire was coming at first and then BAM! Good stuff...

So everybody headed to the bank we've got an idea of what's going on!

Let's. Get. Dangerous.

Ever since I saw this image of a revamped forgotten character from Marvel's past I thought about a story adapted from Darkwing Duck just with humans instead of anthropomorphic animals....  

So the general idea isn't note for note redoing Darkwing just with humans, cause doing comedy sitcom type stuff isn't really my jam. In my head I imagine this is the darker themed pulp character that the duck version would've been the parody of. Batman is to Batduck as Darkwing is to Darkwing Duck. A pulp themed hero in purple. A fearless young pilot. A young girl in need of a new home. His rogues gallery that's on par with Batman and Spider-Man... IDK why Disney hasn't done more with this concept?!

A human form of Launchpad could be comedic sure, but maybe Launchpad is more daring like Race Bannon and less comic relief in this? Slight alterations here and there are perfectly fine. After watching tons of stuff from behind the scenes there were even a couple more of the badguys that would've switched sides, Bushroot being the big one. Anyway here's a handful of characters I'd hope to fill out in the RP.  The idea is I'd take Darkwing to set the tone. Anyway the cast, name changes (if they're duck or animal themed), and images if I've found anything good for reference. 

John Drake/Darkwing - the GM

Launchpad McQueen - the pilot

Gosalyn Drake - the wayward teen

Gizmo - bodyguard of Scrooge McDonald

Morgana Macabre - the sorceress 

Wildcard Hero - Is what it is (original)

Taurus - criminal kingpin 

Crackerjack - jester and madman

Liquidator - tycoon turned supervillain

Bushroot - scientist and plant man

Megavolt - electrified nutjob

Jambalaya Jake - Cajun thief and mercenary

Splatter Phoenix - artsy and angry

Steeljaw - Agent of C.H.A.O.S. 

Wildcard Villain - Same as before (original)

C.H.A.O.S. - villainous organization w/eggmen minions

So yeah... I know... it's SUPER niche. I'd be doing good if I could find a handful of DW fans. HOWEVER... I can totally make an RP with just another four or five peeps. I left a ton of the characters out, and the story we roll with will be based on what we get in terms of cast. There's a ton of potential in the concept, and if I can manage to pull this off I'd love to give another RP a try with something like Tale Spin with humans rather than animals. 

And that's the bare bones of it. A few pictures gave me the idea to run with the idea finally. Lately I'm just feeling nostalgic and I have a huge love for pulp characters like the Shadow, Doc Savage, and the Green Hornet. I even threw a couple spots in the cast for original characters to spice things up a bit more. If enough people are game I'll throw a CS template together and post it and we can get to work developing the rest of the RP!

Was gonna edit the last post but I'll just make a new one LOL

VERY good start to this thing! If two other heroes are making their way to the bank heist I'll have SoL watch from above and drop down to try and make friends afterwards. 

Awesome! So, follow up question, does the Brute need to be human? I was hoping to make a sentient robot (ultron, vision, red tornado) would that be allowed?@Araby264

Yeah that's cool it just needed to be a brute. I just did the archetypes thing so we didn't have too many of the same type of character. It could have fallen under advance techno but we've got that spot filled. So long as the character's main focus is on strength/durability, a robot brute is as good as anything. 

Is this still open to join?@Araby264

Yep. Available archetypes are in the opening post!

@Stern Algorithm It's going to be an HQ Lady Liberty had under the apartment complex doing it. I mostly wanted to set it up so my guy wasn't running out of the door in today's world wearing his super duds. Interference could be stealing power from the secret HQ though. 

I'm setting up a new secret HQ with that last bit of my first post. I figure a resident super genius might have plans for another one should we have a more resourceful Alliance, but if not we can keep it mostly street level. 

Was anybody else based near Broker [GTA equivalent of Brooklyn] or was it just my guy?
