Current folk horror/occult fans: somewhere I saw the label "loup gyaru" and that's either a typo, or an anime werewolf romcom that has a solid chance at being really funny. Like if you agree with the latter

the eternal struggle; RP Edition: None of the ideas going around interest me. My own ideas *only* interest me (mostly; some of y'all are cooler than you get credit for).

I am longer RickyG; Toad King was something my son called me when he was, like, 3, as a compliment. I was sitting on a stoop between some little toad statues or something, he thought it was cool.

Bio

Bios are stupid; oh, sure, everyone can see them, but I bet nobody reads them.

Rude hand gestures and shpadoinkle, there.

No, I wasn't drunk when I wrote this, but I was very tired.

Hmmm... So, I kind of like these ideas, and I don't plan on running multiple characters, so I'll go with whichever you think is a better fit?

Arcade (A reimagined, non-villain character, simply with the same name. Or could be treated as the original, I don't know how you'd handle that; the character has existed in the comics since the 1970's, and still occasionally shows up, a relatively recent target of his being Gwenpool) I'd rather make him a... I don't want to say "anti-hero", but I definitely don't want him to be a villain, maybe not as heroic as others... I guess that's just a flawed hero, isn't it? He would have light based powers, instead of a death-trap puzzle gimmick a la his namesake. He can shape colors/light into various game implements; easier feats such as balls of light bouncing around an area like a pinball, shielding himself with giant cards, or throwing cubes (like dice) that roll like giant boulders. With concentration, he can simply manifest laser bolts, or create other light constructs with a video game aesthetic. His powers actually aren't limited to this, but his love of games make these methods the easiest for him to pull off. The light constructs are usually neon colors, and can, to a limited extent, maintain substantial force, enabling his constructs to inflict damage or block attacks. These are Mutant Powers, not magical.

Dane Whitman/The Black Knight (wielding scientific paraphernalia instead of magic powers, detailed in the link)

@BenG85
Although I don’t want to stifle creativity, I don’t think that Doctor Doom would work for this RP. He is pretty firmly established as a villain and I do have plans for him if this RP progresses far enough. So I would appreciate it if you picked another character. A possible suggestion would be Mister Fantastic as he is related to Doom and still has some of the mad scientist vibe going on.

@NinaDivine
Kate Bishop would totally be acceptable as she has been an Avenger before (well a Young Avenger and then a West Coast Avenger). But yeah if you are interested, put together a character sheet for me to look over.


Darn. Well, I'll explore some other characters (not feeling the list, but I appreciate the gesture).

I'll get back to you with an option or two for consideration this weekend.
@Artemis Arts
No problem! Just glad that you are still participating.

@BenG85
Yes we are still accepting. You could read the RP log, but if you don't want to basically all that happened was that the Avengers were called to Avengers Mansion where Captain America briefed them on going after Viper and the Serpent Society. Right now everyone is just leaving the meeting room and heading toward the Quinjet hangar.

As for character suggestions I'll repost a list I posted earlier in this thread.
Classic Avengers:
- Iron Man
- Hulk
- Ant-Man
- Wasp
Powerhouse Avengers:
- Sentry
- She-Hulk
- Hercules
- Ares
Regular Human Avengers:
- Hawkeye
- Mockingbird
- Two-Gun Kid
- Hellcat
Space Related Avengers:
- Darkhawk
- Mantis
- Quasar
- Machine Man

Hopefully these suggestions help.


I still need to do some reading on the character, but I should get approval before getting too invested in the idea...

Any chance I could get away with... Doctor Doom?
Hmmm...

I kind of like this, would it be important to read the rp thus far? Maintaining the current character roster implies as much, but I thought it best to be certain.

I will need to browse around and find an existing character to assume/adapt, and I'm certainly open to suggestions and feedback.

And final question (should have been the first): is there still room for new players?

@Martian
Huh... I know about this game, has this actually gotten off the ground?
Updated!

Read the first post for the premise of this rp

@Theyra
Doing an edit later so that the original post gives y'all something to work with in terms of determining interest.
Still need a few more players for this...
Yes
Cool!

Just today I started getting some ideas for an actual setting.

I'm thinking college aged characters, in a unique setting where the Ghostbusters aren't a thing yet.

The characters also aren't the original creators of their equipment, so one element of the story is watching the characters learn to bust ghosts, and they'll need to, because the original creator of the equipment is somehow weaponizing ghosts, and the equipment was part of their evil plot.

Still interested?

P.S. I know that was a really long sentence, my writing is normally better than that.
