Introduction

Have you ever felt like you were drowning?

For many years, it seemed like I was sinking deeper and deeper underneath the tides. Harder to breathe. Harder to fight the current. I had lost everything. No friends, no family, no one. I never thought that would change after everything I had experienced at the hands of my worst enemies. I thought I would never fill the void that was in my heart. But somehow, I found a place where I could do just that. On a little planet called Earth.

These are the stories of my travels on that little planet, on the place where I found a renewed sense of self, and with the unlikely family I found. The stories of the Teen Titans.

About the Roleplay

The world as we know it has had superheroes in some form or another for as long as history has recorded strange metahumans and aliens. From the appearance of the Justice Society of America to the current modern day Justice League. In this world the tides are oftentimes turning. It is here in the relative present, that legacies of heroes have spawned in such a short time. However, these legacies have not yet been put to the test. As a group of heroes find themselves in New York City, they will find themselves in a situation where they will build a league of their own.

Player characters will have full freedom in determining their characters and their parent characters. A Dick Grayson player determines Gotham and Batman as well as subsequent lore and so on and so forth. Stuff not covered will be determined by players and GMs alike with fair balance to things. It will be the GMs job to motivate and deliberate, nothing more and nothing less. Plots will focus on characters in a sliding scale, starting with the introductory event where Starfire is chased down and forced into combat in downtown Manhattan. Your objective as players is to place your characters in New York, interact, and build things together. In the original RP that influenced this one characters like Aqualad, Wonder Girl, and Speedy were meeting up at a pizzeria on one of their many off days when the action draws them to Starfire. If we want to do a similar situation, we can do that. If we can brainstorm something better, that’s perfectly fine as well.

In terms of character limits, I think to keep things balanced we have to consider six character slots with two readily assigned to myself and Maxx. The rest is up to the process of elimination. Those who don’t get in will be placed on a short-list for future additions.

The world is ripe for the taking, guys.

As with most of my roleplays, the gist of things are simple – be committed, don’t be a dick, and post applications in a hider in the OOC. When approved move them to the characters tab.

I'm thinking I'll set the application deadline to August 25th, which gives y'all around a week to figure out your applications. Which should be easy for everyone given you don't got to fill out too much.

Well, that gives a potential Robin CS contest, which I honestly didn't expect.

Who else is apping Robin?

Also, I do apologize for over-doing the backstory. I just want to flesh it out because none of the canon-sources ever do.

@Master Bruce has mentioned interest in Dick Grayson.

As for length, a sheet can be as long as they need to be. Kori's is short because there isn't much to tell at start.

@Inkarnate Sorry, couldn't find it in the opening post, but are we limited to DC characters or are OCs allowed? If its the former, would we be limited to character that were part of the Titan's at one point in time, or any DC hero that could be played as a teen?

This RP is about interpreting canon characters and building off them, yes.

As for your second question about characterization options, it depends but generally I’ll accept strong legacy and independent concepts of the teenage variety. A Superboy that is Kal-El would be strange considering the founding of the Justice League, but I’d give it a fair chance when it came to determination for example.
