During World War II superhumans and costumed heroes became a staple of American culture much in the same way the genre is in today's world. However, in this world they actually existed in both eras and superheroes worked with the Allied forces to defeat Hitler and his superhuman Axis Army. Now, the great grandchildren of heroes long past their prime take up the reigns to combat against the forces of the Fourth Reich.
In the year 2000, the Fourth Reich began to build their army. With their own genetically modified superhuman dubbing himself the 'Master Man' leading the way with his flight, strength, and durability, it wasn't long before the new army came into power and occupied several areas of Europe. Several superpowered freedom fighters have made headlines in Paris, Rome, and Spain such as the Knight, Spartan, and the Whip.
In the year 2017, Master Man and his forces invaded the United States' capital, Washington D.C. When the superhuman war came to the nation's doorstep, the superhumans, vigilantes, and even the superpowered criminals of the generation came together to fight the Nazi supermen. In this RP, players can take inspiration from cannon characters from WWII or create their own original legacy in the story of how even the criminals of the nation fight against the country's enemies. However, you can also opt to make a supervillain on the side of the Fourth Reich. All heroes and legacies except for a few bigger names are up for reinterpretation. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Captain America, Green Lantern, and the Flash are all off the table however if you want there's still tons of similar characters out there like the Whizzer for the Flash, Ms. America for Wonder Woman, folks like Patriot could stand in for Capt. America, etc.
I'm taking inspiration from the Rocketeer myself and making the grandson of the original the new man in the rocket pack.
Just testing the waters with an iCheck for now because my last two haven't amounted to much in terms of interest leading to completed Character Sheets and an OOC. I'm hoping the WWII / WWIII themes and creating a legacy is a bit more appealing than standard superhero team RP's. Looking for a team of around 6-8 players including myself with a wide range of characters. If there's a lot more interest in playing invaders in the Fourth Reich I may accept more players for this.
But again, just looking for some interest now and then I'll get to posting Character Sheet requirements. Looking for high casual standards with this one! Who's ready to go to war with Nazi superhumans?!?
