[OOC] The Next Avengers

[Jones Sparrow]

Hello, if you're reading this, that means that you have some potential. About 40 years ago we started a war to end all wars. Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, Guardians of the Galaxy, the Inhumans, the list goes on; we all joined forces to take down the biggest villain force we have ever faced. Ever since then, crime had hit an all time low, people started to respect and accept people with powers... and for the first time in a long time, the world felt safe.

That was until about 16 years ago when a new anti-mutant force known as the New HYDRA appeared. Us Avengers had grown older, but we managed to suit back up and take down the threat, but not without a price...

We aren't getting any younger, us heroes. We have families now, gray hairs, and a fear that someone or something big will come for Earth, and we won't be there to stop it. So, with some hard work, determination, and a large amount of money, we started our own school. It's like Xavier's place in New York, but bigger... and better.

Tony Stark's School for the Protection of Earth, or commonly referred to as 'Avengers Academy' will take people of any age, with or without powers, willing to defend earth and teach them to use their talents and skills for good. And lucky for you, you have this invitation. I don't care if your grandfather was Reid Richards, or Grandmother is Mystique, or you yourself got bit by some radioactive beetle, or you only know how to use a gun. I know that you have potential to really make a difference for the future. You are the future the world needs, and when the world is in peril, and the people are looking for their hope, they'll be looking for you.

With that said, if you want in, just fill our the form below, if not, then you're missing out.

--Tony Stark

Alright, this is an RP based on the Marvel world where new young heroes train to become the next Avengers in an academy made by Tony Stark! There are a lot of students here that are training, but only the top of the class are selected for the "Next Avengers Program" which are essentially more advanced classes and sometimes "field trips"

Now since this is a Marvel RP, there'll be appearances of classic heroes, but the goal here is to be the next line of defenders. I'll leave it up to us to create the world we are in, and you don't need to understand any comics to join! This is supposed to be fun, and if you're a marvel fan, you're more than welcome to join! We will create our own world and universe these heroes live in, so there isn't a Comic Book we are following!

RULES:

1) You can make any character you want, with any backstory, with any age! preferably I'd like to have these characters ranging from 16-21 years of age, but that doesn't mean we will! You can have powers, or no powers!
2) I encourage people making descendants of famous heroes, but if you wanted to have a parent or grandparent be a certain hero and someone took it, talk to them to see if you can be relatives or something
3) DON'T MAKE YOUR CHARACTER OVERPOWERED! You can't be invincible, or over powered. Make your character fair and fun to play around with!
4) These characters won't be masters of their powers, that's the fun of it! Show weakness, and struggle, it'll make it a lot better!
5) I don't feel like I have to say this, but no One liner posts please! I believe in quality over quantity, but a single sentence like "He walked into the room" won't help the story!
6)There will be romance, action, adventure, comedy, you name it! Have fun with this!
7)You can create completely original heroes with powers if you'd like,
8)If you have any questions on what you can or can't do, just ask me with a mention, or PM me!

James Rogers

Name: James Victor Rogers
Age: 18
Appearance:

James

Years in the Academy: 6

Ancestors: Steve Rogers(Captain America) [Grandfather], James Howlett(Wolverine) [Grandfather]

Powers/Abilities: Although he was born with his gifts, James hasn't fully mastered any of these powers. He still has a lot to learn.

Powers

Peak human strength, agility, and reflexes
-Since his mother's dad was Captain America, James also possessed some of the Super Soldier Serum in his blood, giving him the power to be at perfect human performance.

Master tactician
-While both his parents and grandparents are military veterans, James is a natural at leadership and command. He finds the strengths and weaknesses of every situation and team mates, and uses it to the best of his ability.

Accelerated Healing factor
-Wolverine's healing factor skipped a generation and went into James. James regenerates damaged or destroyed tissues of his body far beyond the capabilities of an ordinary human. In addition to accelerated healing of physical traumas, his healing factor makes him extraordinarily resistant to diseases, drugs, and toxins. The speed at which he recovers is dependent on the wounds he gets. Minor cuts, or stabs heal almost instantly, but bullet wounds, and deep cuts could take minutes up to hours to days to fully heal.

It is also important to note that James has never been injured to extreme points, or tried to test his limits. He doesn't plan on seeing how far his healing can go.

Heightened instincts, and senses
-Wolverine also passed down his sense of instincts, being able to sense something wrong, picking up on scents, and if angered, he will be nearly unstoppable. His rage at this point though can leave him vulnerable in many cases.

Bio: I've had a lot to live up to. My parents were in the Peace Corps after Avengers and other super heroes joined forces to finally defeat the major crime organizations and villains. My mom was the daughter of Captain America and Sharon Carter, and my dad was the son of Wolverine and and a rancher he met in the desert in California.

My parents had their own abilities, so it was no surprise when mine started to show at a young age. I grew up in a world where mutants and humans were one, they lived peacefully, and we did for years. But like I said, I had a lot to live up to.

At the age of 4, there was a giant movement that shocked the world. HYDRA had reformed, it surprised everyone since Johann Schmidt had finally been thought to be dead. My grandfather who was now older than he was, felt responsible and started to fight against them alone. To everyone's shock, it turned out my mother was behind the new movement... Grandpa Rogers eventually stopped her, and ended the movement.

She was sent to a maximum security prison, and I was left to be raised by my father, and my grandparents, as well as friends of the family, but no one looked at me or my dad the same. When I was 12, I did what anyone did at the time: enlist in the Avengers Academy, which is like a high school, but add super hero classes into it, and dangerous games of dodgeball.

For six years people either treated me as if I was some sort of god, or they were afraid that I'd be like my mom and start attacking everyone... I tried to just do my best, and focus on doing what I can for the world. I am one of the top in my class, and so I was invited to join the Advanced Training Program, to essentially become an Avenger if the world ever needed them again. I don't want to let anyone down.

Family/Relationships?: Anyone interested let me know!

Weapons: Grandpa Rogers taught me how to fight with shields, and gave me my own one when I was strong enough to carry it. This Shield has the ability to produce an energy blade at the bottom half, and split into two, making two shields going on both hands (top half is mostly a shield, bottom half has the energy blade).

Personality: James is very much like his grandfather Steve. He has a deep sense of responsibility, and does his best to help others. He hates people who think they're better than everyone, and due to his other grandfather, he has a bit of a temper if provoked. He doesn't let anyone talk poorly of his friends, and especially his family, but at the same time he's ashamed of what his mother did. He tries to keep the balance of being respectful and honorable, and giving in to his anger and instincts.

Other: Has a habit of saying "Bub" a lot when angered.. "Thanks Grandpa Logan"

[Orange Juice]

Is it alright if I post an unfinished character in a hider? I'll continue to work on it throughout the night it's just I'm watching Harry Potter at the same time so I'll be on the site on and off lol

[Rin]

@Jones Sparrow"Descendants" would be your character's children. I think you mean "ancestors". ^^;

[Jones Sparrow]

@Rin

That is very true XD

Can you tell I've had a long day?? hahaha

[Rin]

@Orange JuiceDouble-posting because mentions don't work if you edit them in but why not just save it in notepad or something?

[Jones Sparrow]

@Orange Juice

That's totally fine! there's no rush

[Orange Juice]

@Rin Just for the sake of letting others know what kind of character I'm making so I don't end up having to write an entirely new character because I had the same idea as someone else.

@Jones Sparrow Thanks! I'll have it up in a sec.

[Jones Sparrow]

I fixed my mistakes, and also added something to the Form, its not too important but I always like to add it to see who wants to immediately be friends and who doesn't XD

[Rin]

@Orange JuiceFair enough.

...I just need to figure out an actual idea for myself I guess. ^^; Hmmm.

[Orange Juice]

Annabelle

Name: Annabelle Boltagon
Age: 18
Appearance:

Annabelle stands at 5 foot 9 and has a thin physique. Obviously the most noticeable part of her appearance is her green skin and pointed, elf-like ears. She prides herself on her inhuman heritage, and while she could easily disguise herself as a normal human, she instead chooses to bear her features with pride. Her hair is long, wavy and a naturally pale red, almost matching the violet colour of her eyes.
Years in the Academy: 4
Ancestors: Ahura Boltagon[Father], Blackagar Boltagon[Grandfather], Medusalith Amaquelin-Boltagon[Grandmother]
Powers/Abilities: Annabelle possesses a few powers inherited from her father and grandfather at birth, but gained a few unique powers after going through the terrigenesis.
-Hypersonic scream. Anna's scream is nowhere near as powerful as her grandfathers or even her fathers. Her scream is a lot quieter and is only capable of leveling a modest sized block of flats at full potential.
-Energy beams. Again, a lot less powerful than her ancestors, the beams are capable of cutting through concrete but are rather thin and unwieldy.
-Inhuman physiology. After the terrigenesis, Anna's body was enhanced, giving her increased strength, speed, reflexes and endurance.
-Additionally she possesses the ability to store kinetic energy and in turn channel this energy into attacks. Currently she can only transfer the energy into small objects and throw them, causing them to explode or simply disperse it through her hands.
Bio: Annabelle was of course born as the daughter to Ahura Boltagon, just before he was elected as CEO of the Ennilux Corporation. Her early life isn't much to speak of. It was relatively sheltered, what with her being descended from royalty and her father being the head of one of the largest Inhuman corporations. She was hardly even allowed to have friends, and any that she did make were vetted and scoped out to the point where they practically didn't want to be her friend in the end. As a result, Annabelle developed a superiority complex, believing that the reason people didn't like her was because she was inferior and the only way to get people to like her was to act like the royalty she was.

However, making friends wasn't exactly on her mind while the complex came about, her Terrigenesis was coming up and she was overtly nervous about it. While the genetic deformities had mostly been stomped out through the screening process done before hand, Annabelle was still terrified that she'd come out the other side looking like some sort of monster.

Suffice to say, she was right to be nervous. She spent the next month in her room, crying about her green skin, strange eyes and pointed ears. It took another month before her father convinced her to be proud of her deformities and show them off like a prize. She began taking more trips into the human world after that, seeing herself as an ambassador for the Inhumans. Her father let her go on believing it, after all she was only a girl of 13 years, what harm could a little embellishment do?

A year later and she received a letter from Tony Stark. Her grandfather urged her to join the avengers academy, having worked with Stark in the Illuminati. She accepted and has attended the school for 4 years now, providing a valued asset and representing the small number of inhumans at the academy.
Family/Relationships?:
Weapons: None as of yet.
Personality: Annabelle has a tendency to expect the worst of just about everything. Be it people or situations, she mostly always has a negative outlook on how it will turn out. She has a little bit of a superiority complex, especially when it comes to music. For the most part, the complex plays itself out to hide how inferior she really feels on the inside, but when it actually comes to music she does, in fact, feel superior to most people. Speaking of, she is most definitely an 'indie chick'. She browses vintage shops, listens to old music(primarily the Smiths and the like) and has a penchant for disliking mainstream things.

However, it's not all doom and gloom when it comes to Annabelle. While she can come off as rather cold initially, after becoming her friend she is as loyal as loyal can be. She is also plainly honest, never wanting to lie to someone unless it would hurt them. She often hugs people when drunk and won't hesitate to claim someone who is only marginally her friend is her best friend.

Annnnnnnnd done

Euclid

Name: Mark Westbrook
Age: 18
Appearance:

Normal

In symbiote armor

Years in the Academy: 4

Powers/Abilities: Mark has bonded with a strange sort of cybernetic symbiote. It allows him to manifest a suit of armor over his body, and convert his body parts into different weapons and tools. The trick, however, is that he needs to understand precisely how the augmentation is supposed to look and function, otherwise it contorts his body into rather painful forms. Fortunately, the symbiote seems to have a number of preset forms it has presented to Mark, giving him something to work with while he sorts out working his armor. Current presets include:
Converting his arm into a Pulse Canon
Ejecting "whip swords" from his wrists
Back mounted Jetpack

Bio: Born and raised in a small town in Indiana, Mark Westbrook took a serious interest in engineering at an early age. Wanting to use his talents to help people, he attempted to apply to the Avengers Academy at the age of 12. Unfortunately, his parents didn't think he was cut out for it, and didn't let him send his application. Not one to give up so easily, Mark instead started looking into opportunities to learn more advanced engineering from Stark Industries.

While walking home from school at the age of 14, taking a roundabout route, he encountered a crashed armored truck. Not realizing the truck belonged to S.H.I.E.L.D., Mark ran over to try to help. While attempting to pull out the passengers, he made contact with a strange liquid that began to fuse with his body painfully. He passed out on the road, was found by a passing police officer, and brought home.

Over the course of the week, Mark tried t hide the strange metallic appendages altering his body, but of course was found by a Shield recovery team. He learned from them that the metal liquid was some sort of mechanical symbiote they found in a crashed alien ship. When it was determined that the symbiote had permanently bonded to him, and was offered a choice. He could either be placed under constant supervision by Shield, or be enrolled into Avengers Academy. Mark chose the latter.

After several.... painful incidents with his symbiote, he managed to learn about the presets in the memories of the symbiote. Finally able to make some progress, he quickly rose into the Advanced Training Program.

Family/Relationships?: friends and family, romantic interests, etc. optional!

Personality: Mark has the distinct disadvantage of being particularly shy. He doesn't tend to try to stand out too much, and is very quiet around people he doesn't know well. He only really interacts with people he knows particularly well, and even then doesn't say much. Of course, that's when he isn't talking about engineering. Mark is incredibly passionate about engineering, and can go on for longer then most would listen about it.

However, when Mark manifests his armor, which he has named Euclid, its like he steps into a second personality too. He suddenly becomes more confident, and far less hesitant. He isn't sure if this is part of the symbiote, or if he just feels more comfortable with his powers active.

Other: Mark has begun applying his lessons on engineering to symbiote, and works on thinking of new tools and weapons he can manifest.

[Bornlucky]

I'm debating if I should choose from a descendant of Ms. Marvel or the Scarlett witch or I could both to make the choice easier. But I'm worried Scarlett Witch's powers is too op.

[Jones Sparrow]

@Bornlucky

You honestly could, and you can always have parts of the powers, like my character did haha

As long as there's some sort of flaw or weakness you're good!

[Orange Juice]

So, should I rewrite the ancestors bit for the family bit, or is it different?

[Psyga315]

Interested. Have some character ideas, since I'm not sure which one to go with. Let me know which one you like better.

The Ideas

Son of Gwenpool, but raised by either Miles or Spider-Gwen and inspired by them becomes the thorn-whipping superhero Purple Hermit.

The Daughter of Spiderman who was traded away for Aunt May's health. Mephisto has chosen her to be his new Ghost Rider.

The offspring of Jessica Jones and Luke Cage.

The offspring of Daredevil and Electra.

Tony Stark's artificially created robot child who resents Tony after finding out about his falsehood and becomes Iron Patriot. May or may not be a recreated Ultron.

[Jones Sparrow]

@Orange Juice

It's more for our characters, or family like a brother or sister, or have a close relationship with someone

[Orange Juice]

@Jones Sparrow I think that's my app finished!

Son of Gwenpool, but raised by either Miles or Spider-Gwen and inspired by them becomes the thorn-whipping superhero Purple Hermit.

@Psyga315

[Jones Sparrow]

@Psyga315

Hello! I like all of those, the Jessica Jones and Luke Cage one would be really cool to see tbh haha

But it's really up to you, all of them could work!
