Remember your characters are taking up the legacy of the heroes who came before. While 'Dropout' is a cool name, a new guy calling himself the Punisher is what I'm really looking for. Or if you wanna call him Outlaw like the black dude who's basically a European Punisher, that's fine.

I just don't want an entire cast of characters with very little or nothing to do with the legacy they're continuing. Some of the characters should actually be taking up the mantles of those who came before. Amadeus Cho's daughter for example could be a new teen She Hulk. Another clone of Wolverine could be running around calling himself Weapon X.

EDIT: @Pathfinder I saw after second glance the mentoring by an aged Castle. And being a dropout of the Xavier School [no Jean Grey school, just simplifies it a little]. What you've got's good so far. If the Punisher dies while mentoring him in his old age, Dropout should trade his shirt in for a black Punisher shirt.

Still a WIP. Needs a Bio...

_________________________

Name - Jacob Grimm

Alias - the Thing

Age - 19

Powers -

Geokinesis: Jacob has increased strength and durability as well as the ability to bend stone and sometimes the Earth itself to his will. He can use this to rip up terrain with TK like force and throw it at enemies, produce stone shields and columns that come up from the ground, cause small earthquakes, create basic stone constructs like simple weapons/tools or large hands/gloves, as well as a complete suit of stone armor.

He can't fly on terrain he's ripped up but he could use chunks of stone and earth like stairs if he had to. Aside from that difference he's much like DC's Terra.

His maximum lift is around five tons without stone armor and small arms fire does little to no damage. With stone armor he can lift about 10-15 tons depending on the size of his rocky suit. The armor itself is only as durable as some of the stronger stone in the world.

Weaknesses -

The one large drawback is it takes concentration for the more fancy applications of his power. If he's a bit too emotional, or his mind or consciousness is being tampered with through telepathy or some drug induced attack, his powers are less likely to work.

Personality - [3 words or less]

Experience - [anywhere from a few days up to 2 years]

Appearance -



BRIEF Bio - The nephew of the original Thing, Ben Grimm, Jacob...

Key Differences - He's geokinetic and isn't stuck looking like a monster.

Sample Story Arcs -

The Fantastic: Jacob tells his retired uncle about his powers. Ben helps him develop them further and gets an old prototype F4 suit for Jacob to use. Jacob's first superhuman battle comes in the form of an old creature of the deceased Mole Man who comes up from the ground in Central Park.

Hulk[s] vs Thing: A pack of wild Hulk like creatures has the older Amadeus Cho stumped, so he enlists the help of one of the stronger up and coming heroes to help him with the problem.

Guardian: The all new Thing continues to make a name for himself, but is shocked to meet a member of the Guardians of the Galaxy's past looking for his uncle.

Supporting Characters - Mole Man creature, Wild Hulks, Amadeus Cho, Ben Grimm, Flash Thompson.

Notes - Anything can be changed as far as my story arcs if any of the characters aside from Ben Grimm and the monster are needed elsewhere. Ben also has a theory his nephew's strength and durability are also kinetic based powers.

@The Kid Lantern I decided to alter Alexis a little. She is the daughter of The Vanisher. She inherited some of his powers but gained a weakness he didn't have.

How does she look now ?

@Ashevelendar I like it but are there any other names you might use for an alias? Just doesn't sound very superhero-y.

Kinda leaning towards the Green Goblin idea now. @The Kid Lantern if it's OK with you my character will be a direct descendant of Norman Osborn. If I did the math right, she'd probably be a great granddaughter...

Are we allowed more than one character?

If so I have an idea for a Wolverine character. It's kind of odd, actually odd may not be right. It doesn't involve cloning.

Just one character for now. IF I do multiple characters it'd be a good ways into the RP and I don't want players obsessing over this or that character until the universe is already blossoming.

Ok I've got two ideas at the moment that I can't decide between. A new host for the (newly reformed) Hybrid symbiote or a pym-particle using spider-man (maybe with six arms too)

A shrinking Spidey would be cool. You have a minute to titanpad?

What kind of stories are you interested in telling?
Seems to me shrinking Spidey offers more classic hero stories, while Hybrid (or any symbiote) tends to lead to darker anti-hero stories.

@Divine Darkness Truth be told I kinda want darker stories / Anti-hero but I'm begining to lean more towards shrinking spidey now. Thanks for the help though! Really appreciate it.

Here's what little I have so far.



Not sure if I want to give her a mental illness.
Not sure how involved she'll be with Alchemax.

@Divine Darkness I'm a huge fan of Heroic Goblins like Phil Urich when he was starting out.

@Divine DarknessI liked it, but I'd like it more if you took out Gabriel Stacy from the supporting cast. The compacted history just makes that whole thing more convoluted and he's got a lot of baggage [and wasn't his mother a Gwen clone?].

@rocketrobie2 I LOVED Phil's heroic GG series in the 90's. I hate they made him one of the more recent Hobgoblins...

Fuck it, I'll throw my hat into the ring. Got a few different concepts.

1.) An illegitimate son of Loki. Calls himself the Asgardian. Primarily uses illusion magic and cunning to trick his opponents, rather than trying to go mano-a-mano with them. Has taken up superheroics to try and make his human mother proud of him, and to get his mythical father to notice him. He's an older character I originally used in one of DrewVonAwesome's Rps, that unfortunately didn't go anywhere.

2.) A new Iron-Man, though this one is a full android, a design by an embittered Tony Stark to ensure that there is always an Iron-Man, and one with his own stamp on it (he hasn't taken being replaced by RiRi as well as could be hoped) This character isn't interested in being a superhero, much preferring to drink and party - who does that sound like? - but his programming doesn't allow him to ignore crises or crimes, and forces him to risk his own life to protect others.

3.) A female Union Jack. No big concept here, just like Union Jack.
