Guardians of Infinity

And to those who haven't seen, I've added NPCs Eternity, Star Lord, and my PC Jean Grey to the Characters tab.

Each brief history will offer insight into what's going on.

Guardians of Infinity

For those wondering on the quick approvals: these are people I have a history with. (Hence approving Hillan despite no history filled out on his CS.)

Still around three spots left, give or take. So, no one sweat the quick approvals. ^_^

Guardians of Infinity

Name: Miguel O'Hara
Superhero identity: Spider-Man (2099)
Age: 27

Appearance: Miguel wears a skintight blue outfit with red accents, including a ghoulish design splashed across the costume. Also, a spider-web pattern cape rests on his back. Unlike the original Spider-Man, there is no direct shape of a spider.

Brief History: Miguel O'Hara had been a genetic engineer working at Alchemex, a company intending to create animal/human hybrid soldiers for a profit. Entrapped by one of his employers, he was fused with a spider, gaining powers similar to Spider-Man before fighting back against the megacorporation. After a time he took the name of Spider-Man before being opposed by the Public Eye, a handful of heirs to the names of the original Spider-Man's enemies, and 'future' criminals. After a while he even developed his own Rogues gallery and engaged in several interdimensional adventures.

RPer Appreciation Thread

@El Taco Taco :)
And hopefully it's sooner than later haha.

@Ruby Ah, but once you weave into the style of 1x1s, they can be so much more rewarding than a group game. Just something to think about.

And dually-noted. Next time i run a game, I shall hit you up with an invitation. :)

@Altered Tundra

I've just never been able to keep up with a long running 1x1. A short one, yeah, a longer one? No. Not sure why. =(

Thanks!

Guardians of Infinity

Name: James Buchanan Barnes.

Superhero identity: Captain America.

Age: Technically ninety years old, but physically in his mid-twenties due to the magic of cryogenics.

Brief History:

Once the teenaged sidekick of Captain America, Bucky was thought lost in 1945 to an explosion caused by Heinrich Zemo. In fact Bucky was found by Soviet soldiers who wiped the sidekick's brain, fitted him with a prosthetic arm, and programmed him to assassinate enemies of the Soviet Union. In between assassinations "The Winter Soldier", as Barnes would come to be known, would have his mind wiped once more and be placed in a cryogenic sleep until he was needed again. It isn't until the fall of the Soviet Union that Barnes reappears under the control of Aleksander Lukin, former KGB agent turned Kronas CEO.

After some time Steve Rogers is able to break Lukin's hold over Bucky using the Cosmic Cube and restore his sidekick's memories to him. Bucky disappears, traumatised by the knowledge of the crimes he had committed, reappearing upon learning that Steve had been arrested in the fallout of the superhero "civil war" over the Registration Act with intents to break him free. Instead he watched on whilst Steve was shot dead. In the aftermath, Bucky is approached by Tony Stark with a proposition: carry the shield and keep Steve's memory alive by becoming the Captain America the world so desperately needs. A reluctant Bucky accepts, knowing he'd never be able to stomach someone else in Steve's uniform, and sets about trying to live up to the mantle.

Would you like CS's here or in the character page before you approve them?

@Kaalee

In the OOC; approved sheets can then be posted in the Characters tab.

Good question, thanks! I already edited the OP with the info.

Guardians of Infinity

Name: Jean Grey
Superhero identity: Marvel Girl, Phoenix
Age: 32 years old
Brief History:

Jean Grey is a founding member of the X-Men, and an Omega level mutant. At least, she was, before her life and life's mission were derailed when a cosmic entity known only as the Phoenix Force possessed her to the point where even those closest to Jean, such as Charles Xavier, couldn't tell where Jean began and the Phoenix Force ended. Though she has saved the world numerous times, and a few galaxies to boot, it was never the less her actions during what has come to be known as the "Dark Phoenix Incident" that became her prevailing reputation in the cosmos, away from Earth; that of a mass-murderer on a scale even most cosmic supervillains would envy, with a body count easily in the billions.

In a twist of fate, it is Jean Grey, and she alone, that ultimately stopped the reign of terror by sacrificing herself in order to stop the by then vengeful Phoenix Force from causing any more harm and death. This is often glossed over by many cosmic residents.

When the cosmic entity known as Death disappeared from the multiverse, a strange thing happened: Jean Grey, seemingly free from the Phoenix Force, rematerialized reanimated exactly upon the very spot where she took her own life over half a decade before. Officials from the Shi'ar Empire respondedly immediately, taking the Omega level into custody, noting she offered no resistance. The impending trial of Jean Grey for the crimes of the Phoenix has become the greatest story in the galaxy, spreading from empire to empire to empire, even reaching those on Earth tuned into the goings-on of the cosmos.
