Did you end up playing Ultimate Thor?

@Lord Wraith

I was going to work on that today tbf but I don't know if I'd bring in a third, so might not talk to Kindred about it.

I don't think the greatest hero of all time will be joining at this juncture.

@Lord Wraith

I thought Thor was going?

I thought the party wasn't going to be the same day as the event...

Considering if takes time to organise such things

Speaking as someone who was largely on the outskirts of these games for a number of years the 'oh I am not actually playing that character but I'd rather they not be played or also they have to be played x way' is also pretty exhausting and off putting as a new arrival.

I think if we want to do a push for more players we should probably extend the leniency of not forcing people to stick to previous purged characters to also existing players being more flexible with the idea of people playing characters we may have mentioned or used as NPCs in ways we didnt anticipate.

Which isn't to say throw any and all restrictions based on what has already happened out the window, more just me bringing up an issue I know plenty of people have avoided these games over in the past.

Alternatively we don't reinvent the wheel and just keep chugging along as is because while we may have lost some people we still have a bunch of very active folks.

PS:

Keen eyes may note I didn't get my posts up. Had to deal with something quite serious IRL but I will endeavour to fix this ASAP.

@Ezekiel

True. I just mean basic facts should be maintained if they've appeared IC but the moment someone takes them on that takes presidence.

Then as for everyone else, what characters would you like to see new players potentially take up within Worlds Collide?

@Cyrania

My biggest question is do we need an active recruitment? We have enough of a core cast that realistically Coulson could form the Avengers and Tony could form a Justice League and there'd probably still be people running around independently.

I'm not against new players, just saying we have a good group now to keep moving things forward.

What may be easier though if you're recruiting is offer up people a list of characters who have been taken, and those that have some established lore.

Such as Arthur, the GoTG, Hawkeye etc.

People could theoretically apply for those characters but to line up with the roleplay there's certain hoops to go through.

Loki appeared out a back chamber while Thor spoke, whispering into the All-Fathers ear. Thor saw a spark of anger in Odins' one green eye. -And so you deigned to kill him? Rather than bring the Mortal Before me to answer questions. You are a foolish whelp."

Loki at this moment decided to speak. "In Thor's defense father, with the rage and stupor that the beast was in it was unlikely that it gave him much of a choice."

Odin turned his adoptive son. A look of scorn on his face. "Do not jump to his aid so readily- He turned his face back to his son. "Over one thousand years of life and yet he still acts as if he is a child. Acting with his fists first rather than thought. The Mortal could no more kill you than any other mortal could, you are a vain-

Thor stood up, a low rumble of thunder could be heard outside the walls of the palace. "-and you are a fool and a coward!" Frejya moved as if to speak but Odin raised his hand in her direction.

"Nay. Stay your tongue wife. Let me hear what the boy has to say about the world of men."

I was looking through some old work for raisins and was reminded by how much of a Bastard my interpretation of Odin was.

It was Major Major Jordan.

And he is a national treasure.

@Lord Wraith

I thought he got promoted

Sounds like it's time for Colonel Major Jordan to make a comeback

. For instance, if Supermaxx doesn't come back for him, I would still want his take on Wally West to be part of the game, mostly due to how much care was put into his background and how it connects with Sep's previous Flash!Iris.

@Cyrania

I know I don't really get the say in it, but unless it's Maxx or someone I know rather nobody take on THAT version of Wally with ties to my Iris.

Would be better if they started fresh as their own Flash™️
