@FrozenEcstasy If you have a problem with the alignments, it's really the GM's call. And it almost seems more believable for me that a chaotic character would choose to join the independent, not government supported, superhero alliance. A lawful character would be more likely to support the governments in place, rather than "vigilantes" running around the globe.

@FrozenEcstasy Not everyone is going to play their characters the exact same way. SO in short does it really matter?

Not in the long run, no.

This. Light for example is Chaotic Neutral, but shes only that because thats her personality type. Shes still going to be very nice and friendly towards everyone and try to make everyone be friends with everyone else. I dunno what everyone else is doing, but I think thats a pretty good difference, no?

I'm honestly not a fan of the 9 degrees of allegance. They're too vague themselves to be useful. Lawful Evil for example can easily also be good, while Lawful Good can easily be evil, but fit into their respective catagories due to the tropes they follow.

@Archmage MC If Intel wanted Alliances it's best to just give them.

True I did. I'm just saying they're not as good as they were a few years back is all xD. They need a serious update. Batman has been through all 9 over the years depending on the writer, which is hilarious if you think about it.

[FrozenEcstasy]

Batman has always been Neutral Good, unless you talk about alternate-timeline Batmans.

And the Alignments aren't really as outdated as they are misunderstood. Good does not mean good and evil does not mean evil in their case. Kind of complicated in their theory, it's best not talk about them and just make sure our characters don't all act like crazy heathens.

Hey everyone!

Wow you guys got an interesting read in the OOC *munches on popcorn*

Be that as it may, I was wondering if this is still open for applications? Seems right up my alley as I love superhero RPs.

So far he's said nothing about closing up ^^

@FrozenEcstasy

Have you read Batman stuff made by Miller? Thats where Batman gets the more evil sides from. xD. If you don't wanna read them, I think Linkara or Comicstorian or Comics Explained goes over how psycho he is pretty well.

[FantasyChic]

@FrozenEcstasy

Well then, I think maybe I'll be making a character either later tonight or tomorrow.

I will probably go the Lawful route as I do notice the chaotic elements coming through.

Real quick to our GM @AbandonedIntel. I had this powerset in another RP, and I was hoping to do it again, but what are your thoughts on Accelerated Probability? Essentially, he/she would be able to see the possible outcomes of a given situation. It's a type of telepathy. In my other game, my character was able to see only one situation and the likely events that could transpire, and that was it. She would also have the same mental weaknesses as other telepathic characters.

Just wondering if this was ok? If not, I will of course choose something else. There are TONS of powers to choose from,

[Owlriel]

@FantasyChic I love your signature with the Marco Polo. XD

[FantasyChic]

@Gilgex Thank you :D

@Archmage MC

Note me saying "Alternate Timeline" Batmans. The DC Universe is full of various multi-verses and characters like Batman have several doubles, even Batmen that seem like the Original Batman we all know and love, but are actually an alternate version.

The "original" batman has always been Neutral Good, neither lawful nor chaotic.

True, very true. But what I'm saying is, did you read miller's stuff at all?

He made batman out to be a nutjob. Like, seriously go watch Linkara's stuff on him. xD

[FrozenEcstasy]

Sadly I haven't, I'm not too big on comics as I am the other media they spawn.
I think the only non-japanese comic I've ever followed is Umbrella Academy, and I still need to read Dallas.

*looks around and twiddles foot*

Yes, I'm that big of a fanboy for those of you whom haven't noticed a theme with me yet >.>;

[FantasyChic]

@FrozenEcstasy D: HOW COULD YOU!

That's totally fine with me! To be honest, I am not a huge comic book nerd as I'm sure some others are. I've read some, but I mainly know what I know of Superheroes on TV or movies or what I read up on Wikis >.<

I tend to enjoy graphic novels somewhat. Most I've seen are expensive (for a book) and I just can't see myself spending all that dough on something I'll read through in 2-3 days (unless I get them at half-price books, then it's good).

Hopefully I get to play the powerset I want, but if not I'm going to have to go over to the Superpower wiki and determine what I wanna do.

@FrozenEcstasy

I don't blame you mate. Watch Comicstorian or Comics Explained to catch up on comics. Or Linkara if you wanna see really bad comics get grilled like Millers stuff.

I'm serious Miller turned batman into a homicidal maniac that loves to mentally torture robin. Its messed up.

@Archmage MC

Miller's early Batman stuff is some of my favorite work ever done on Batman. 9/11 just had a really profound psychological effect on the guy, really sad.
