what's going on at the disney theater?

I KILLT BITCHEZ!

Because y'know, screw Humanity and all that. Oh and my employer is trying to incite action against all Metahumans because reasons. Now I'm on the run with the freaking Mayor because I don't even know...so yeah. There you have it. :D

EDIT:

OH YEAH! Me, Letter Bee & WatermelonTango currently have our own cozy little Skype chat going, to help us coordinate stuffs. If any of you would like to join just throw a PM with your deets towards any of us and we'll invite ya! ^^

I wouldn't mind joining if a)my character idea gets accepted b)it's chat and not video lol

It's just chat. I rarely ever use video for Skype haha :D

Same :p too awkward

so.... Feels less like an RP and more like you guys posting stuff you guys make ovre PMs and stuff with all these collab posts.

Eh, I'm not gonna be writing another collab post for a while.

They are easier to work with though.

Yes, I'm talking about the FBI agents. Also, I did clarify it in one of my earlier posts, but just so that we're straight, the Metahuman Registration Committee is what it says it is; a registration committee. One of the guys who works there, however, illegally works as a non-official handler for a bunch of selected metahumans, mine being one of them. I'm not implying the MHRC is an intelligence organization or anything like that.

Also, @NarcissisticPotato, while I still think my theme song suggestion has more to do with the RP (the song ends with "We are extraordinary people", if that doesn't fit in a gritty superhero RP, I don't know what does), I'd be damned if I said your song isn't good. I even got it in my phone now. Thanks for introducing me to it.

@Yog-Sohoth, here:

The riot was an Anti-Metahuman protest that was made much worse by the fact that the instigator of the Anti-Metahuman protests hired a Meta (Aster) to kill several of the protesters rioting, as well as the policemen keeping order. Before this, Gary Stuart, my NPC, tried to hire several Metas (Pamela/Twist and Dean/Bojangles) to the protesters; he guessed that the Walt Disney Concert Hall was going to be the focal point for an attack, because, well, it's Disney. However, the Metas he hired failed spectacularly, and Aster got away, and was then ordered to abduct the mayor and take him...somewhere.

In the immediate aftermath, Ruby, a Technopath given Power Armor by the Big Bad, attacked the FBI headquarters in LA and blew it up, killing many people. Cedric, one of my PCs, as well as William, an NPC, survived, and Cedric now vows revenge.

Alec, another Metahuman who was asked to protect the protesters, refused to do so and instead began investigating on his own. He'll join the Heroes soon.So, yeah, Chaos.

And, finally, in the aftermath, Martial Law would be called, throwing things in further disarray for the Heroic Metas and the Internal Reformist movement. So, yeah, the good guys are in a bind.

To add more to the summary Letter Bee just constructed, the first Arc dealt with the Heroes trying to protect a gang leader named Valentine Caro who possessed information on over 2000 mercs. The mercs quickly got alerted and were either instructed to kill or break Caro out. Elijah, AcerRo's character, was one of the mercs who pulled an assassination attempt on him, but thanks to Nightingale's, Cedric's and William's intervention, Caro got off easy (if you call third-degree burns easy). In the meanwhile, Cypress, the Aparture poster girl, was in pursuit of Elijah's partner, Ruby, who had earlier raided one of Aparture's assets. She finally managed to track Ruby and they argued the shit out of each other in the rooftop. Unbeknownst to Cypress, Ruby had alerted Aparture and minutes later they came in, guns blazing, and captured both Ruby and Cypress.

Nightingale held a grudge against Aparture, so she decided to join Elijah and lay vengeance on them. Cedric caught them make a deal and came to the realization that Nightingale had defected. Somewhere off-screen, the TV man was taping everything.

A few feet below Aparture was a high-security prison, in which Constantine and Alto, a government meta and a merc, broke in and rescued Cypress. Ruby was offered to join Aparture, and she accepted.

Hey, I'll have you guys know that Ruby has a leave-no-drone-behind policy! I'll drop it for now though. :P

Also, I know, I really like the song and was focusing on the lyrics when I realised that they really applied to the RP!

Edit:
Avalon is both, kind of. Any Metas that are deemed weak are held in the high-security section that most of the Magi oversee. Deeper into Avalon, the A-Class and B-Class metas are stored in the sleeper facility that is controlled by the Magi Hypnos, a SS-class Meta who can put someone into a coma and keep them in that state. Avalon is usually the spot where rogue S-class and SS-class Metas are put down.

I understand that, but its a looot of reading and I'm a bit lost on where things are again xD. Same with yogg apparently. I'm just waiting for Light to be picked up, lol.

Point taken, sorry.

There was a standoff/debate/skirmish in which Constantine and Pamela tried to stop Aster from kidnapping the Mayor, but failed, after which Consty and Pam, now accompanied again by the NPC Healing Spore - who had been hiding - then went out to the outside, where they encountered Dean/Bojangles, who they then brought to Elena's FBI van. Then, they found out about the FBI bombing, and everyone was angry, and then they decided to go back to the ruins of HQ.

Aperture could always use someone like Light for genetic testing. Watch out, Ruby has a helicopter so she physically could be "picked up".

Lore questions: StephenRouse, the first GM, mentioned a "Sleeper Facility" that functions as a Meta-Prison, which in turn was the place where LA's first Superhero Team was forced into going, kick-starting the plot. Is the Sleeper Facility the same as Avalon, or is it different?

Second, did Stephen tell any of you about the origins of superpowers? He says that that was going to be the original plot of the RP.

Reposting.

Stephen never told me anything about the origins of the power, but due to the fact that I've been making the lore up as I go along, I'm sure I can find a reason for that!

Dangit all, I genuinely hoped that the Sleeper Facility was separate from Avalon and that the Magi were good guys.

Speaking of the Magi, are we going to meet them anytime soon?

So, basically, Constantine and Alto's raid on Avalon was both 1.) Lucky, and 2.) Probably illegal, as they were infiltrating a facility under the protection of the Government to free someone who might be a criminal.

Dangit, can we go with: the Government doesn't know that Consty and Alto were the ones who broke in?

@Letter Bee, my guy punched an innocent civilian in the face and raided a TV news station. It's okay.

The Magi are good guys... they're all ex-heroes under the employment of the government.

You won't want to meet them if you have to fight them but sure, they'll be introduced soon enough!

Let's not get mixed up. You raided an Aperture R&D mining platform. That is certainly not Avalon for a few key reasons. Neither Constantine nor Alto could raid Avalon by themselves. It is the most defended place on the planet and has it's on Reactor that can instantly be made uncontrolled (by the president only with direct permission from congress) and blow Avalon off the face of the planet. It is guarded by elite special-forces armed with the latest anti-meta weaponry and even if you get through those guys, the Magi have been working together for years and are possibly the strongest team of Metas on the planet. No one is allowed in or out without direct approval from the committee overseeing it. It's surrounded by a proximity mine-field and auto-cannons in case any attackers have air-support. Basically, you ain't getting in there unless you have a master plan.
