Only one of those has built-in abs. I think you know the right answer.

Couple of other things to make known:

In order to A) give players the best opportunity to affect the course of the RP and B) not overload ourselves between character and GM duties, Hound and Retired and I have agreed to not stake a claim of any of the big-name characters like Spider-Man. So if you want the Webs, speak up.

Also, we are allowing competing apps, even for the GMs. So just because one player has expressed interest in a character, don't think you have to give up on it. You can throw some elbows if you want.

How about I throw these HANDS?!

Out of curiosity, doesn't particularly affect me. But say someone does Apply as Spidey, and has a vision for them and all set up and then someone applies as Miles that has a specific vision with contradicting parts... What happens? Do you just lock the two of them in a room together and see what happens?

I imagine the GMs will discuss it case-by-case, but ultimately I think 'main characters' have seniority, a la Batman and Nightwing. However, the player who plays Pete wouldn't have a say over how the other player portrays Miles, unless there's a detail that's completely contradictory.

Also, while we're not going to be huge sticklers about Canon, we aren't doing Ultimate/Absolute re-writes, so something like Miles being an established veteran while Pete only just got bitten wouldn't jibe. So for characters that have a big family/legacy, we'd prefer takes of that character who have been around for that family/legacy to be in place.

In general, because this is such a game localized in one city, you should expect that others might apply for legacy characters and take that into consideration when writing your own apps. So if someone applies for Peter, that person probably shouldn't also be coming up with ideas for Miles, Cindy, Ben, whatever. Odds are they might become a PC.

An adult Peter in a stable relationship is exactly what I imagined for this game when the GM team began brewing it. It's one of many reasons why I like setting this in a world that is already established.

So, by all means...
