Bio

E V I L S C O T T I S H G U Y


So I have been on the Guild for a long, long, long, long, long, long, LONG time. I first joined the OldGuild around, my best guess would be 2012? I've been active in the Star Wars scene on the Guild since then, there have been very few games based around that genre that I haven't at least nosed my way in on. My very first game was a Star Wars game and that's what actually really got me into the Star Wars Franchise.

It's weird to think but I am such a major Star Wars nerd these days, yet before I was on the Guild I wasn't. I got into a Star Wars RP, got onto the Wikia, and then away I went into a spiral of nerd-om that I currently live within. I've grown since then, I game quite a bit, I write when I can. I have a wikia full of a lore to my own original creative universe and play around with some 'cool' comic book nerds.

You can't ask for details and then snub details :P

Fate grew up in 1910s England. I actually plan on his, shall we say, problematic past being a part of his character. He was literally one of the Black-and-Tans before he got his powers.

Maybe we need a fictional history for each org.

My idea is like... Avengers were formed as an unofficial alliance of Allied superheroes in WWII. Later grandfathered into SHIELD following the formation of the United Nations.

The Justice League was originally the Justice Society of America, and was also formed after WWII by the likes of Alan Scott, Jay Garrick, Carter Hall, etc. Membership changes and bankrolling from Wayne changed it from basically a drinking club for veteran superheroes into the global defense alliance it is today as the Justice League.


Avengers didn't exist during WWII. The Howling Commandos and Defenders did, as did the JSA.

Argus was the successor to the S.S.R, which is the secret science/secret agent type people. S.H.I.E.L.D is formed in the 50s due to increased political tensions as a public international peacekeeping initiative. They recruited super-powered individuals, similar to Howling Commandos style throughout the Cold War and into the modern age.

They have actually worked with the JL on several occasions prior to the Avengers forming, which only happened after some political backlash against the JL.
Unless you're a member of a Cosmic Law Enforcement Agency...


Damn it Carol! I told you to stop moonlighting as a SpaceCop.

I think we can draw the line between the two as, like:

If you are a superhero and want to do it for a living, you join the Avengers. A paycheck, benefits, insurance, but you have to register with the US government and are ultimately at their beck and call.

The Justice League is pretty different, and is more like a secret society of superheroes. You have to be invited to join, and its membership are more along the lines of aliens, demigods, etc, whose concerns are outside the scope of world governments.


Register with the United Nations. S.H.I.E.L.D is a global peacekeeping taskforce. Technically speaking President Supes isn't Caps boss.

JL is just @Master Bruce paying people to be his friends.
<Snipped quote by Ever Faithful>

Can't believe nobody's applied for racist Cap in one of these games yet. Get on it, people


why do you think Falcon gets all the bitch work?

Strange.
I wonder how President Superman and Captain America would meet. Since Steve Rogers grew up in 1930s and 40s America, it's quite the eye opener


I'm sure myself and @John Table will hash those deets out.
Really I think it's more because Thor is probably the Avengers equivalent to Wonder Woman.

The Avengers in this world would probably be something closer to the Dark Avengers, being an explicitly government run and funded superhero team.


Honestly in comics, if you go the OG lineup Thor is easily their equivalent of Superman. People quite often sleep on his power levels, especially in recent years.

In terms of the Avengers being like the Dark Avengers I see it. I mean I think the thing is you really need to define a difference in the two groups in games like this, as if both are private... what's the point?

<Snipped quote by Sep>

If I went Thor, I'd be too tempted to make him "Superman with a different paint job." And I wanna distance myself from that.


I respect that.

I mean really the compositions of the teams isn't that important, as I'm sure there'll be some crossover and if need be the Avengers can always recruit and if it comes to be important to the story then NPCs can always be used.
If you consider that the New Gods (as a comic series) only began because Kirby left Marvel and wanted to continue his Thor storyline, that introduces some new elements as well. Maybe Asgard and New Genesis/Apokolips are related in some way, with "magic space gods" being sister-races, related somehow.


I kind of went the Thor route, with the story elements implemented in the God Butcher arc. Honestly it doesn't really need addressed unless someone applies as them and at that point it is their choice.
I think there needs to be some kind of connection between Wondie's Greek Gods and the Asgardians. Or at least something to explain why some Gods are "real" and others are "just magic aliens."


Really depends on what interpretation of Asgardians you use. The Greek Gods also exist in the Marvel Universe, honestly I find it quite interesting and have played about it before.

With only the one Superman now, you know what the Avengers could use..?
