Oh, I'm still interested, I just don't know who To go for.

Iron Fist goes here eventually.

Sorry for the delay in posting, exams have been on and off the last few days and I've been posting in my downtime. So 1st of all, awesome that I've been accepted (though NightNotRunner, really?)

Although now I'm really going to have to put my thinking cap on since I realized I've got a usually ride-along character standing up with the big leagues. Time to get the big boy pants....

One thing I've noticed is a lack of villian-esqe characters from those who aren't the almighty GM or affiliated closely with. Now I have on my CS that he's WTL but I'm happy to start out a villainous Deadpool and work my way through the villain-anti hero-hero-U turn kinda arc (It's what I was going for anyway) with any other player who want someone to fight.

I know that NPC rogue galleries are available to people but I found that having an organic enemy that will test you since you don't know what they'll do next (especially in Deadpool's case) makes one a better thinker and therefore a better writer. I put this forward to Byrd and especially MrJonesJr, since my 1st notable arc involves SHIELD. ANd Gowi, maybe Kraven and Wilson could tango if he's not busy washing his hair? If any of ye are interested, PM me.

............why did that last line sound like a craiglist ad?

Yeh, sorry. I am planning to get two villains up sometime this week. It's just unfortunate that this week is proving to be really busy. But no, Doom and Ock are still on the cards. I may be able to get Mr. Lang up within an hour or so though, so lets cross them fingers.

Also, I count myself a little interested. Care to PM me as to what some of this entails?

Well that's the good thing about this roleplay. As long as it doesn't upset the other player's characters (or the players themselves) and isn't entirely batshit insane, you can take any character you like and reinvent them to the point where they only vaguely resemble the old version or are only even related in name only. Look at Bryd Man's Punisher or Jonesie's Captain America. It allows you to completely reimagine characters the way you want.

Which has just given me a great idea for a Howard the Duck CS...................

Deathstroke's actually a (semi) returning player. I don't think that could do him any harm though.

Regardless, I am going to have to steal the above three sentences.

Be my guest. What 3 exactly however?

Also, a question. What's the policy on introducing major NPCs (for example, in my case, new incarnations of the next set of Weapons from the Weapon Plus program) that have powers and the like? Basically our rogue gallery?

I think it's a matter of interpretation. You've got to wonder whether anyone would actually play the character. With DC games it's a little harder to judge because the Villains are just as interesting to play as Heroes. Possibly even more so, in fact. Here however, there's a definite hero bias. I mean, other than Magneto, Doom or a few of the Spider-Man villains, we're not really spoilt for choice. I suggest you weigh the magnitude and the range of the characters you propose to NPC. For example: I'm probably going to be NPCing Ultron. He's big in terms of significance, but is largely just a plot device.

Were there any specific experimentees you were planning on? Wolverine's probably (definitely) out of the question, but I'd say everyone else would be fine.

Edit: The three before you mentioned Howie.

That's fine then, I just wanted to see it in writing so I know what I'm doing. It was just that the rules only refer to killing NPCs and not about recurring NPCs but yea, I get it.

Don't worry, I won't be picking any mainstream villains or heroes. For the first while I will be the villain anyway so I'll probably have the other guys wailing on me. As for the other Weapons, I know Wolverine is off the table, or at least until someone picks him up and pending their CS, we work him in, but I have been thinking of introducing a new version of Johnny Sublime, possibly some "failed" experiments and maybe introducing some "original" characters as new Weapon Plus experiments (say, Weapon XX)?

BTW, sent you a PM.

I'll check that then.

Shang-Chi incoming. The Deadly Hands of Kung-Fu shall touch this rp.

Also idk why Wolverine is off the table but, I'd be interested in a more villainous or Walk the Line-esque Logan working alongside Deadpool. I mean Wolverine didn't become a recognized, full-blown hero for awhile. But is that is too far off the table, I shall recede.

Wolverine is off the table as he's too popular of a character to be a simple NPC.

Nooo, no no. You can apply for Wolverine if you want. It's just that you can't NPC him.

Sorry Kal, when I said Wolfy was off the table, I meant that he's off as an NPC because someone (atm, you it seems) would want to play as him. By all means, throw up a CS. If you want to have any history with Deadpool from the Weapon Plus program, please check my CS for all the basic info I drew up. It's vague enough that you can throw yourself in there (There's even a sneaky reference to Wolverine, see if you can spot it ;) )

Ersatz, any suggestions as to whom I should apply for?

We're in need of a powerhouse character, Hulk, Thor, the big hitters.

Hulk is.....hard to play. Thor's a Norse god; is Norman Osborn or Eddie Brock available?

Well. You seem to be in your element with the hired guns of various universes, but you pretty much expended most of them in the last game without little avail. Perhaps a younger character or a villain. What books/media do you tend to go for?

DSW, Norman and Eddie are not available at this tme as they are just normal humans and will be for some time.

Perhaps A villain then. Aeternus Malum
