The goal is to churn out a Spidey post tomorrow...
See how we go.
See how we go.
You spin a web, but is it or lies or stories?
<Snipped quote by Sep>
Yarn... or deceit..?
<Snipped quote by Sep>
So far, he would get his revenge but discover and encounter Hydra and start fighting them and find out that they cloned him and Hydra would send one or more of his clones after him or encounter them during his raid on a Hyrda facility.
<Snipped quote by Theyra>
Sounds like a pretty intriguing story

I am just having trouble thinking about what Hydra shipped to New York City from Gotham.

I mean weapons are always a good bet
For those who are also past the two week mark, most of you have given prior notice and I've made a note of it. As a result, you're all safe for a few more weeks. But by mid-September, I'm gonna have to start singling people out. Which I hate to do, but it's nessescary. Even if I'm on that list too, it's one of those things that has to be enforced.
Just try and keep it in mind in the future.
Got a new Black Knight post up! And with this one I think I should say that I'm going to retire my Mr. Terrific character, I think I overextending a bit with him at the start and I'm not really sure where to go with him that would properly develop the character. I'll leave the posts up for now, but if anyone wants to redo him or take over the character I'm happy to delete them so they can have a fresh start. For the moment I'm going to focus on Black Knight and get him over to America so he can hopefully start interacting with other characters. I've got a few ideas for other character's like Etrigan or maybe Nova, but for the time being I'll focus on Duncan and not spread myself too thin.
C H A R A C T E R C O N C E P T P R O P O S A LD A N N Y P H A N T O M"Witty Quote"D A N I E L F E N T O N ♦ C O L L E G E S T U D E N T ♦ P O R T L A N D, O R E G O NO R I G I N S:Young Danny Fenton, he was just eighteen,
When his parents built a very strange machine.
It was designed to view, a world unseen.
When it didn't quite work, his folks, they just quit,
But then Danny took a look inside of it,
There was a great big flash, everything just changed,
His molecules got all rearranged!
When he first woke up, he realized,
He had snow white hair, and glowin' green eyes.
He could walk through walls, disappear, and fly,
He was much more unique than the other guys.
And it was then that he knew what he had to do,
He had to stop all the ghosts that were comin' through,S A M P L E P O S T:"For the last time, I have no affiliation with that hack, Venkman!"
Jack Fenton roared into the phone before ending the call with an aggressive press of his thumb. He sat back and massaged his temples. That had been the third phone call this afternoon alone. He knew it’d be coming after what happened in New York nearly forty years ago. They shut Venkman down, discredited his and his colleagues’ work, and swept everything under the rug.
But Jack remembered.
It had inspired his work and between him, his now wife and his college roommate, the three had gone on to create the proto-portal that inspired his now complete ‘Fenton Portal’, a gateway to the ‘ghost zone’ and the object of his tele-harassment. His initial attempts to power the device had failed, but that didn’t stop this shady government organization from wanting to acquire it.
Looking up from his mobile device, Jack put away his gloomy expression and forced a smile onto his face before he addressed his wife and children.
"Sorry, Madds. I didn't mean to disrupt this dinner you worked so hard on, no more phone calls for me today" the burly man apologized before turning to his eldest. "How were your classes today, Jazz?”
“Dad, you and I both know you don’t care about my classes,” Jasmine ‘Jazz’ Fenton replied dryly, pushing a few loose strands of her red hair out of her face and tucking them neatly back into the teal headband she wore.
“You’re just probing to see if I saw any ghosts,” Jazz rolled her eyes, “No, Dad, unfortunately for you, my classes were painfully mundane.”
“Jazz, that might have been the case today. But I’ve been looking over maps of Portland for the past decade, and I’m very confident that your school sits on a Hellmouth.” Jack explained excitedly, “If anywhere in Portland is haunted, it’s Reed College.”
“Whatever you say, Dad,” Jazz smiled before picking away at her dinner. Jack had struggled to connect with Jazz since she had graduated high school two years ago. Jasmine being accepted into Reed was a point of pride for both of her parents, but Jazz had quickly outgrown Jack and Maddie Fenton and their ‘sick obsession with ghosts’ as she so mildly put it.
“Danny!” Jack exclaimed excitedly, pivoting the conversation toward his youngest, “I was wondering if you could help your old man tonight with powering up the portal, would love to see if I can get it running.”
“Uh yeah, sure, Dad.” Danny replied reluctantly, “I suppose I can do that.” His fork rolled a few loose peas around on his plate before Danny let out a small sigh.
“Not like I had plans anyway.”
A college freshman, Danny hadn’t exactly been an overachiever nor a popular student in high school. His grades were painfully average, his extracurriculars non-existent, and he had to live in the shadow of his popular sister who seemed to excel at everything she put her mind to.
If anything, Danny knew more about what the inside of a locker looked like, than he did the inside of a classroom.
“How about you, Jazz?” Jack asked, “Want to spend some time with the family?”
“Sorry, Dad,” Jazz replied coolly, “As tempting as that is, I have a date.”
“A date?” Maddie spoke up, “Will he be coming here to pick you up?”
“Ha,” Jazz laughed sarcastically, enthusiastically shaking her head, “No, no he will not. I’m meeting him at the library.”
“Oooh a study date,” Danny waved his hands, “Sounds hot, making out between the bookshelves, being shushed by the librarian.”
“Daniel,” Jack scolded, “That’s enough.” He stated before turning to Jazz, “If any boy is going to be taking my daughter out, I need to meet him.”
“He’s a man, Dad, and it’s just a first date, he doesn’t need that kind of pressure.”
“At least give us a name,” Maddie pried, “Just for safety at the very least,”
“His name is Angel,” Jazz replied before Danny burst out laughing.
“It’s a very common name in South America, Danny!” Jazz snapped. “You’d know that if you were more like Angel, He’s a very cultured man, unlike you.”
“I hope we get to meet him, Jazz.” Maddie smiled as Jazz stood from the table.
“Yeah, fat chance of that.”P O S T C A T A L O G:A list linking to your IC posts as they're created. This can be used for a reference guide to your character or to summarize completed interactions and stories.

@Master Bruce, @Sep & @DocTachyon, I've completed my sheet for review.
The sample is a rush job, but screw it.C H A R A C T E R C O N C E P T P R O P O S A LG A R T HT H E S U B - M A R I N E R"I won't stand here and do nothing!"GARTH OF SHAYERIS ♦ PRINCE OF IDYLLS ♦ ATLANTIC OCEANO R I G I N S:The son of King Thar of Shayeris and Queen Berra of Crastinus, Garth represents the new hope that is the United Kingdom of Shayeris and Crastinus, one of the twelve undersea kingdoms that comprise Poseidonis. Under the tutelage of the High Mage, Vulko, Garth is coming of age in a realm of magic that stands in firm opposition to Venturia’s warmongering. This has thrust the boy into the midst of undersea politics he doesn’t yet understand, as his uncle, Slizzath, conspires to bring about events that will propel him to power at great cost to life both above and below the surface.
As the United States prepares to sink the aircraft carrier USS Trafalgar with the stated goal of creating an artificial reef, events are set into motion that will upend Garth’s royal life and ask the question of whether one boy alone can stop the tide of war with the surface.S A M P L E P O S T:
THE UNITED KINGDOM OF SHAYERIS & CRASTINUS
The Hamlet of Thierna na OgeThere was so much blood in the water.
At first, he’d thought that it was just sediment. The visibility around the tremendous impact sending hundreds of pounds up from the ocean floor to create a veritable fog in which the boy could no longer see the hand in front of his face.
It was a quick and sobering realization that debris was not the only thing floating around him. Luckily, the cold waters around him stole away his tears as quickly as they sprang.
Taking a deep breath, the youth steeled himself. Even without his sight, the boy’s sense of location could pick out each of the guards around him in turn. “What are you standing around me for?”
From the murky blackness the thoughts of the man-at-arms was quick to answer, “Your Highness, it isn’t safe!”
“Yes, and our people need your protection,”the boy charged
He could feel the guards checking in with one another. After an awkward silence, a voice finally offered, “I’ll stay with the prince.”
The boy gave a sigh of relief, releasing a breath he’d held in anticipation of being dragged back to Shayeris and thrown into a room. To wait around with tutors while others did the work that needed to be done.
Or worse, catered to him when that attention was needed elsewhere.
“With me,” the boy said, not wanting to yield for even a second when it seemed the hand had loosened on the reigns that sought to tether him to a throne that was not yet his.N O T E S:
- Tha-Korr is King of Atlantis, but I will make no references to Fen or Atlanna, so the royal family of Atlantis is free to be interpreted by anyone who may wish to pick up Arthur/Orin or Namor. Similarly, I will make no reference to Tom Curry, Amnesty Bay, Nereus, Mera, or Xebel.
- I have no plans to introduce Black Manta, so if anyone wants to use him and/or introduce a version of Khaldur'am/Jackson Hyde, they're free to do so.
- Planned Rogue Gallery is Slizzath and Attuma for the undersea side of the plot, and Dr. Dorcas and the Scavenger for the surface side of the plot. Future plots may also use Suma-Ket, the Dead King, and the Unforgiven Dead.
- Surface side plot involves Beachrock, Massachusetts.
- Support Cast: Deputy Wilson, McCaffey, Quisp (Silver Age version), Mar (Alpha Flight)
- "The Brine" people refers to Marvel's Plodex race in this merged undersea-verse.

MB may swoop in and disagree, but Sep and I are feeling we can't take Danny Phantom at this juncture. There are still plenty of Marvel and DC characters up for grabs, and we have already denied a Power Rangers concept, so we'd both feel a little weird accepting this despite that. I do really like the sheet, though, and we may be willing to reconsider once the game's possibility space is filled out a little more Or failing that app this once I gather my courage and run a Fusionfall game.
<Snipped quote by Bounce>
and with apologies to the magnanimous Bounce for the delays, Garth is accepted! Excited to see what you do with Atlantis and its kingdoms.
<Snipped quote by Half Pint>
Understandable I respect you dropping one now knowing your limit rather than burning yourself out trying to do both.
Next Iris post will come but since we're leading upto a Collab I'm going to let @Simple Unicycle post first.
