[OOC] DC Universe REBIRTH [original DC inspired roleplay/universe]

[Burning Kitty]

@bluetommy2 Alot of people would take offense at Zod's characterization of Superman as king of Earth. Please let him learn that, Kryptonians are not special just genetic freaks.

At least use an image of the one true Zod... LOL



~KL~

[Bluetommy]

@The Kid Lantern Oh whoops sorry, that's the real heresy here.

[Burning Kitty]

@The Kid Lantern

This is the one true Zod:


Everyone else is just pretenders to the throne.

<Snipped quote by The Kid Lantern>This is the one true Zod:

@Burning Kitty

Pretty sure they gave him the facial hair in the comics because Terence Stamp looked like such a badass with it in Superman 1 & 2. Before that Zod looked like a cop without even a mustache to his name...



I stand by the REAL Zod. Accept no substitutes.

[Eviledd1984]

Hello are you guys still accepting people?

[Omega Man]

@Eviledd1984 Yeah right now it just depends on the quality of the character sheet.

What's the status of the Fortress of Solitude and the Watchtower, and where are they. Those would be the logical places for us to start looking for Superman.

@TheUnknowable

Superman still has the crystal fortress but nobody's ever been there. As for the Watchtower, the only Justice League has been the Trinity up to this point [Superman, Bats, and WW] and they operate out of the Justice Tower in Metropolis when they're together.

WW is in Europe though, and Superman is off world. Until Batman gets there, the Justice Tower is locked up tighter than Fort Knox.

~KL~

[TheUnknowable]

oK. I'll say that the fortress is hidden by Kryptonian sensor jammers, so I can't find it, but I've heard rumors.

Couple things:

1. I STILL haven't come up with a good way to introduce myself. Beginning to wonder if I ever will.

2. It's becoming increasingly obvious that this turning into yet another Gotham City story and, frankly, that bores me to death. I'm tired of Gotham, I'm sick of Batman. But apparently that's all anyone knows and thus everyone and their dog is in freaking Gotham for no real reason.

[Double]

One more question: Why should any invading alien force give a crap about some random ass cities in Kansas or a bum-fuck slum in New Jersey like Gotham? I'm pretty sure they SHOULD be appearing in major capital cities like D.C. and London and what-have-you.

@DoubleWould Aquaman care about an alien ship?
He could join us in Metropolis (it's coastal), but I'm not sure why he would. Maybe he's looking for Superman too?

[Burning Kitty]

@Double

It's becoming obvious you are not reading. My characters are not from Gotham and never been to Gotham.

Starfire & Zod I believe are in Metropolis now.

Hawkman is in Coast City.

One more question: Why should any invading alien force give a crap about some random ass cities in Kansas or a bum-fuck slum in New Jersey like Gotham? I'm pretty sure they SHOULD be appearing in major capital cities like D.C. and London and what-have-you.

@Double

Again you are not reading. The Starros are in Charm City too.

Final comment to @Double read the thread.

@TheUnknowable

Starro's are a starfish like species they could invade Atlantis as well.

[Holy Soldier]

@DoubleI also wouldn't take your writer's block frustration out on other writers when you just can't find the creativity to put Aquaman somewhere else. No one said you had to place him in the same location as everyone else. Other characters can easily go to Aquaman or create plots in that area if you can't find a purpose for him to be anywhere else. There is more than one city than just Gotham in play right now, and if you're going to whine about a role playing game period, then why join any? It's a sandbox game. I can write my character wherever the F I want to write him. I could have chose any place. I chose Gotham, so what? Get over yourself.

[Omega Man]

*coughs*

5.) Problems with the game or players should be sent directly to me through PM's. I don't want a bunch of bickering in the OOC.

@The Kid Lantern

@Double

1.) You can quite literally have him swim up on the coast of anywhere and it'd work in the context of the story. Maybe he senses a disturbance in the marine life and discovers a Starro draining the life out of a whale? Or like somebody mentioned, Starros could be in Atlantis as well...

2.) Others have already mentioned it, but there's only three out of eleven characters in Gotham right now [Catwoman, Booster Gold, and Icicle].

One more question: Why should any invading alien force give a crap about some random ass cities in Kansas or a bum-fuck slum in New Jersey like Gotham? I'm pretty sure they SHOULD be appearing in major capital cities like D.C. and London and what-have-you.

@Double

This one is actually a lot easier to explain. The invading forces are targeting the more populated areas. If you're familiar with the term 'megacity' it's defined by a city with a population of more than 10 million people. In real life, the US only has two out of something like thirty five in the world [New York and LA]. In the DC Universe, while some of them may not qualify as megacities, some are said to be even bigger and/or compared to other large cities such as Metropolis being larger than NY and LA, as well as Gotham IIRC.

The only reason I haven't mentioned Washington DC is because it's population last I checked was only around 700,000. Hell, even Chicago has 2.7 million people.

To everybody else, calm down and RP!

@Eviledd1984 The Joker CS as it is won't make the cut. When I say reimagine I mean REIMAGINE! Look at the Tangent Universe Joker or the Jokester from Earth 3 for examples of the kinda thing I'm looking for in this game.

~KL~

[Eviledd1984]

@The Kid Lantern

Okay so just have to rework him is all?Good to know.

[Eviledd1984]

I was thinking of making him like a Superman or like The Question kinda character, Just trying to think of a good way to change him up.
