I'm gonna start work on something, but it might be a little slow. Work has been kicking my ass mentality.

I should have known that the second I would say this work would kick me heavily in the bollocks repeatedly...

As it has been over three weeks without a Batman post, I'd like to challenge for the cowl.

C H A R A C T E R C O N C E P T P R O P O S A L

"I am Vengeance."
B R U C E T H O M A S W A Y N E ♦ W A Y W A R D H E I R ♦ G O T H A M C I T Y
O R I G I N S:

Gotham City, a cesspool of crime and corruption once upheld by the guiding light of its community, Dr. Thomas Wayne. A former mayoral candidate, billionaire and philanthropist alongside his wife, Martha of the Kane founding family, the pair were creating a better Gotham before their lives were cut short leaving behind a sole heir in their son, Bruce.

Bruce Wayne was raised under the stewardship of Alfred Pennyworth, his father's closest confident and bodyguard. The family fortune however was put under the guardianship of Bruce's uncle, Jacob Kane until such a time that Bruce came of age to claim it. However, when that time came, Bruce vanished like a ghost in the night leaving Alfred to bitterly moan the loss of the boy who he had come to see as his own son.

Burdened with a mission to find justice for not only his parents, but vengeance for Gotham as a whole, Bruce travelled the world, seeking out experts in various skills, all while living under a plethora of aliases and getting by on the kindness of strangers and odd work. Eventually, Bruce fell into the ranks of the League of Shadows. But when the time came to complete his initiation through the execution of a petty thief, Bruce stayed his blade and was expelled from the order much to the disappointment of both the Demon's Head who saw an heir in Bruce and his daughter Talia, with whom Bruce had become involved.

Returning to Gotham a man now honed into a weapon, Bruce is prepared to do what he must to find his parents' murderer and bring justice back to Gotham. Seeking out his childhood friend, Dr. Thomas Elliot, Bruce is preparing not only to make his debut as Gotham's Prodigal Son among the socialites, but also on the streets as a silent guardian, a watchful protector.

A Dark Knight.

S A M P L E P O S T:
"Does Alfred know you're back?" Thomas asked, opening the door for the ghost of a man who had shown up on his private yacht a little less than an hour ago. The skilled surgeon had been trying to relax, taking some time off from Wayne Memorial Hospital before a bearded felon had boarded his watercraft and nearly took several years off his life.

"You're the first," Bruce replied through the matted scruff adorning his face beneath several years of shag that hid his forehead and ears. Layers of roughly worn clothes were pulled taunt over his shoulders and barrel-chested frame as the once lithe boy now stood with the silhouette of a boxer beside Tommy. Bruce's arms made Thomas' gym muscles almost pale in comparison. While pumped, he could have looked almost equally muscular to Bruce, but Bruce was resting now, and Tommy would have hated seeing what Bruce had been up to for all these years to earn himself such a physical form.

"Bruce, I think you're legally dead," Tommy replied with a chuckle, pouring a drink and offering it to Bruce who declined with only a small wave of his hand. Shrugging, the other man quickly took a long drink, before refilling the glass and sitting across from Bruce again.

"Where have you been all this time?" He asked, "I'd seen the tabloids and every so often there would be a story about 'Bruce Wayne Sightings' but I assumed it was like Big Foot or Elvis,"

"Did you go to my funeral?"

"Alfred never had one, your Uncle had a candlelight vigil in hopes you'd make it home safely, but after the first three years, they just sort of stopped."

"Understandable," Bruce replied, unphased, unbothered and frankly Tommy was finding it a little unnerving.

"Why now, Bruce?"

"Because now," The larger man replied, "Now, I'm ready."

Huh, didn't realize that was an option. I may weigh my options and see if it's worth throwing some elbows, at least to keep some folk on their toes.

That's my interpretation of this rule at least:

By applying, you agree to participate in the IC at least once every two weeks. Failure to do so without prior notice to one of the GMs will result in your character being removed from the roster without question. You may attempt to re-apply, but it's to be entirely at the GM's discretion.

I don't see any harm in expediting the process by actively challenging for the role. Which leads me to my next question, @Sep:

I'll give you a 48 Hr window to respond to the competing sheet

What does 'response' entail? Surely it must require the player to actually put forth a post opposed to simply stating in the OOC that something is coming if they're already past their deadline. The above quoted rule states 're-apply' but that's also vague in nature.

The reapply would be for if they were removed and, I assume, would mean they'd have to submit their character sheet again. That part seems pretty clear cut.

I guess this is a way to encourage activity, though...

That being said, I will start working on a post this evening and plan to have it up tomorrow night. Now that character relationships have been established and the dynamic between them has started to be etched out in the story, I'm going to be advancing the FF plot with an actual adventure over the next few posts. Then, from there, they'll be in a position to interact with the greater world and the characters within.

So, by post, do you mean like a regular post or something else in mind?

I'm pretty sure they meant just make a normal post so your claim on the character is still valid and you don't get removed from the active roster.

Green Arrow, Jack Hawksmoor, The Punisher, The Question, and Silk are off the roster. They're the only ones I never heard back from. They can be re-applied for but as of right now, they're considered up for grabs.

I went ahead and removed myself as Hulk, too, if anyone wants him. Superman I'm still going to attempt a return with, but I won't contest any applications for him either.
