The many-worlds interpretation is an interpretation of quantum mechanics that asserts the objective reality of the universal wavefunction and denies the actuality of wavefunction collapse. Many-worlds implies that all possible alternate histories and futures are real, each representing an actual "world" (or "universe"). In lay terms, the hypothesis states there is a very large—perhaps infinite[2]—number of universes, and everything that could possibly have happened in our past, but did not, has occurred in the past of some other universe or universes. The theory is also referred to as MWI, the relative state formulation, the Everett interpretation, the theory of the universal wavefunction, many-universes interpretation, or just many-worlds.

So after many attempts at getting a justice league game running on various forums with little payoff. I believe I've found something that's worth sticking to. Basically, the idea I want to explore with this one is the idea of the multiple universes or multiverse, in essence, infinite character possibilities, you can be any leaguer (canon, original, or other) based on any alternate DC world (anything from DC comics/tv media) or go completely original, it's up to your discretion really, just be able to explain the nature and basic premise of the universe your character is from. This is loosely based on the convergence book event, which involved a story centered around multiple one-shot worlds, you don't have to be at all familiar with the source material to make a character, however some understanding of the multiverse story might help with some ideas for concepts if you're needing a reference. You want to be a zombie flash? Ok? Nazi Super-woman? Also ok. Anything is possible in the context of the multiverse.

You want to do an original with a faceclaim from other media who for some reason is connected to a justice league character in some way? That's also fine I guess. Villains are also acceptable.

What's important is you understand what this roleplay is and isn't about. Think of a justice league composed of many different members from many different alternate realities. Each one as distinct and unique as the one before.

In some world, somewhere... someone like the The Joker is actually a good guy. Some food for thought.

So I wanted to do justice league, but in a way that hasn't been done before. One Justice League. Many Worlds, Many Timelines. Infinite character possibilities, or you can just stick to the mainstream counterparts if those ideas don't work for you. Nothing wrong with that.

If anyone's wondering, I'm contemplating doing Earth 2's Superman as my main go-to character. I think the idea of a Superman who isn't Clark Kent in origin a pretty interesting choice to explore.

You might wish to delve into parameters for admission. A Nazi Wonder Woman, as excellent an example of an "Elseworld" I've seen would likely be denied admission no?

Where would this hall of Justice be? How do they recruit when not every world has access to the Elseworlds?

Did something like the Monitor gather them and if so... what of the Anti-Monitor?

There sorta is something like a Nazi super-woman. Two in fact. Overgirl and Brunhilde I believe of Earth 10. The Reich inspired world where Nazi Superman(Overman in this universe) whose pod landed in WW Europe and was raised by one Adolf Hitler. As far as the whole league admission thing goes, it would be more like a thing of absolutely necessity and some overlapping interests going on. What you said does raise a few good points. There would be a "prime" headquarters where the league is assembled and operates from, but I'm thinking of it being more of a space that exists beyond time and space. A purgatory like space. The Monitor could work as the force that assembles leaguers from different worlds, but I really want to go with the idea of the multiverse team being established in response to a "prime" threat.

Alternatively, the headquarters could reside on Earth-Zero or Earth-Prime from "Crisis of Two Earths" (Available where DVDs are sold!)

That world, possibly that entire universe, was devoid of sentient and sapient life, a garden world and served as the template for all other worlds.

Owlman tried to destroy this world, hoping that all other worlds being variations of this one would cease to exist.

I'm familiar with Earth-Zero. I had some plans for it, but I didn't know if I wanted it to be the designated headquarters or not. I think I'm leaning towards it as being that. I might have to change some canon things to make it work but this isn't exactly a canon-bound game.
