@Rapid Reader I don't wanna stretch myself too thin but if you need a Doctor Strange and I'm not guest-writing for someone else I'd be happy too. Cap can always stop by though.
QOTD:
_______________________________
Thought it could be fun to stir up some conversation while we get closer to the deadline. Thinking about the character you've chosen, what type of 'CRISIS' event are they most likely to answer to? In this style of game, we've defined Crises as large-scale events that have ripples across the entire RP. In the first season of Ultimate One Universe, we had the face-off with the Silver Surfer. Most recently in Absolute Comics, we had Stryfe plan an attack in three separate locations across the country.
Heading into Sensation & Wonder, Doc, Sep and I are working on something entirely new but I'd love to hear what the ideal is for everyone's characters.
I just look forward to seeing what we have planned. I have no idea what's going on.
The dream is probably Hellboy though (sorry not sorry).
Don't need to be sorry, whilst I'm not a GM Hellboy's one of those non-Marvel/DC characters who have had an exception made for them in the past (possibly because of some of that old DC history) and the fact the premise generally kind of fits.
I'd say it's worth it to at least take a swing at an app, if that's what you want.
Related, any CRISES that involves the supernatural or touches on the supernatural would have an obvious and easy connection with Ragwoman (personally at some point I think that it would be wonderful to form a supernatural superhero team with other players for something major, basically the Shadowpact in the RP).
Well, looks like I may be dusting off Magik once again

M I S C E L L A N E O U S ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ►I've tried to not mention any of the other members of the Bat-family within my sheet so that I don't disrupt anyone's potential use of them. Feel free to send me a message if you do want to establish existing relationships. -
A child prodigy, Tim Drake deduced the identity of the infamous Batman of Gotham at the mere age of 11, following his exploits closely over the next few years as he further trained both his academic and athletic skillset. Tim, from his observations, soon noticed a change in Batman's personality over the years and decided that if anyone could help the caped crusader, it was him. Besides, what teenager didn't dream of being a hero? Initially rejected, he forced the Bat's hand by donning a costume of his own and taking to the streets. It was only after saving Gotham's defender during a run-in with Two-Face did he finally accept Tim as the new Robin on a trial basis. Tim has been fighting by Bruce's side ever since.
His skills improved drastically over the years, and not just in regards to beating up bad guys. He spent a fair amount of time honing his mind, with Tim's slight tinkerings to the Bat-Computer eventually leading to nearly an entire redesign, with improved security measures and capabilities.
Eventually deciding he was growing too big for the nest, Tim decided to spread his wings. Setting up shop in the newly refurbished Old Wayne Tower, which he fondly dubbed the Belfry, Tim gave up his Robin costume, taking on a new role; Red Robin, with him believing that he could now work more maturely without tarnishing an existing symbol.
Despite his new identity and newfound confidence, Tim worries that he isn't doing enough and whether he could bring more good to the world if he focused his efforts away from the world of heroics and wonder.

As my favourite Robin, Tim is always a character I've wanted to write. I'm a particular fan of his Red Robin series, which saw him move on from his Robin persona, as well as his more recent arcs within Detective Comics, where we see Tim debating leaving behind the role altogether in a search for his identity away from the Robin moniker. These themes are something I would really like to expand upon, especially in a collaborative environment like this.
As a support character, I initially plan on Tim sticking within Gotham, engaging in many of the ongoing plots there (How they came to be), as well as participating in larger events (Scorched Earth). This would give him the perfect opportunity to collaborate with many of the Bat-family and allow me to really see the role which he plays within it.
Outside of this, Tim also has aspirations of improving the world outside of Gotham, and as such, I plan on him reaching out to other like-minded characters with similar ideals to foster a better tomorrow through hope and wisdom rather than unjust force. More of a team of Champions, rather than your Young Avengers.
I see. I might try and give Daredevil a shot but I also might hold off and see if I can make supporting character that might develop further depending on how it goes.

I think there are two facets of a crisis that allow for a lot of interaction in ways that allow a crisis to be broken up in more digestible chunks: canon fodder and collateral damage. Having a lot of nameless bad guys makes it easier to just give the reigns to players to beat them up how they choose, and putting civilians in harms way through large scale collateral damage should lead to some good heroic moments. With the character's I love to write, those are the threats they would be most apt to deal with.
If you're looking for another player to 'guest write' Constantine anytime, I happen to know both @Roman and @John Table have great versions of Constantine.
Awesome! I don't want to pressure anyone, but I like the idea way more of having some heavy hitting characters that overlap with Ragwoman be run by other players. I think roaming / support characters are a cool idea presented in this RP and I really want to try to use it to everyone's advantage. I'd love at some point to have Ragwoman (if she makes the cut) pop into someone else's main plot in more of a roaming or supporting role.

Haha, yeah, we'll see how things go, but if there's a good time, I might just do it (or trick someone else into doing it).

You know you want to. ;)
Thanks for all the feedback and discussion, appreciate it!

Both are very viable options. Whatever you're ultimately comfortable with though but if you have any questions don't hesitate to reach out.

Follow your heart.
For anyone that's interested all Caps cast is up for grabs. Let's find our Fury
