The year is 2025. Heroes such as Spiderman [Miles Morales] and Ms. Marvel [Kamala Khan] are getting grey and entering their 40's. Many heroes of their generation have already retired such as Nova [Sam Alexander], and Wolverine [X-23] is among the staff at the Xavier Institute. A new generation of heroes has already started hitting the scene with reports of a new Spider-person, among other things on the Daily Bugle jumbo-tron in Times Square. The world was recently devastated as Steve Rogers, the original Capt. America, passed away in his old age. His successor, Sam Wilson [aka the Falcon], retired from his honorary position as Capt. America shortly after and turned the shield back over to the government. However, nobody was prepared for the return of [insert villains]. How will the new generation of heroes manage? Team-ups? A new super-team? Allies will be made and lines will be drawn. Legacies must continue, heroes and villains reborn... or the future is lost.



This RP gives players an opportunity to continue legacies or build their own within the vastness of the Marvel U in a sandbox style role-play. Compacting the Marvel timeline a little and setting it only eight years in the future was more or less to put some age on the current Marvel NOW era. Though this will be a sandbox style RP, where players are responsible for their own character arcs, there will be key events happening that will effect the entire RP and eventually a team of some kind will need to come together to stop a mutual threat, or at the very least an alliance. Basically the younger Avengers and heroes in general have began retiring within the last 2 years and this is the first time [insert villains] have made contact with Earth since the 'Classic Marvel' era. An older version of Miles or Kamala might gather a team of us to fight the currently unknown enemy, but other than that I don't want too many more mentor characters running around.

Marvel REBORN Titanpad

As far as a generational timeline, here's what I've got:

Golden Age Marvel: 1940 - 1959

Capt. America was created in 1941 during WWII to help defend against the Axis Powers. Soon after the Invaders would be formed along with Prince Namor and the android Human Torch. In 1945, in his final battle with the Red Skull, Capt. America was frozen in ice and lost for decades. Other Golden Age heroes would remain active off and on until around 1959.

'Classic' Marvel: 1980 - 1999

In 1981 Capt. America was found by SHIELD during a time when a group of heroes was gathered to assist Thor in taking down his evil brother Loki. Some time after Reed Richards managed to open a rift to the Negative Zone with cosmic radiation and tech that gave himself and three other individuals powers. The same year, 16 year old Peter Parker became the Amazing Spiderman. The Xavier Institute was opened August of 1984. Most of the heroes would remain active up through the year 2000...

Modern Marvel: 2000 - 2010

After nearly two decades of fighting the good fight again, Capt. America passes the shield down to his friend and ally, the Falcon. The former girlfriend of Thor lifted the Asgardian hammer and now wields the power of Mjolnir. The Amazing Spiderman was taken back when a new younger Spiderman named Miles hit the scene wearing webs. And Tony Stark was shown up by a 17 year old Riri Williams who was already about to graduate MIT Tech and built her own Ironman like suit.

Marvel REBORN: 2025

If Miles [Spiderman], Ms. Marvel [Kamala], Wolverine [X-23], and Nova [Sam] were around 16 years old in 2000, they're in their early 40's now. If Falcap was in his 40's during 'Modern Marvel' then now he'd be close to 60-65 same as the rest of the 'Classic Marvel' era. Heroes need replaced. Sons and daughters of 'Modern Marvel' characters can be created. Completely unrelated characters can take up the mantle of another hero similar to Riri Williams and X-23 replacing Tony Stark and Wolverine. Grandchildren of 'Classic Marvel' can be created. I'd even accept one or two time displaced heroes. Legacies must be REBORN...



Approved characters as well as crossed out dropouts...

Green Goblin - Green Goblin [F] - enhanced physical attributes, Goblin tech
Hulk - Wulk [M] - enhanced physical atributes, healing factor, feral senses, bone claws, hulk form
Namor - Namor [M] - enhanced physical attributes, breathes underwater, hydrokinetic
Ghost Rider - Harlem's Ghost [M] - supernatural
Vanisher - Shortcut [F] - teleportation
Punisher - Dropout [M] - enhanced physical attributes, healing factor

Thing - Thing [M] - geokinetic, strength, durability
Loki - Kid Loki [M] - magic/illusions
Darkhawk - Darkhawk [M] - alien cybernetics
Gambit - Anders [M] - charmer
Human Torch - Lucy Storm [F] - fire/ice powers
X-23/Wolverine - Raptor [M] - feral powers
Deadpool - Deadgene [M] - being a Macgyver-like badass
Dr. Doom - Iron Doom [M] - Doom/Iron Man combo
Spiderman - Spidergirl [F] - spider-powers
N/A - Gutter [M] - humanoid rat mutant

I'll try and have the IC up no later than Monday. Still undecided for now what threat I'll use to start crossing characters paths and forming whatever team comes to pass in the RP. Approved characters can go ahead and post CS's in the character tab. Any interested parties can check out the iCheck for details...

So the claws skipped a generation. Does Alex regret not having claws?

Based on my knowledge of Logan's abilities even if X-23 was sixteen when she became the Wolverine she would still be in her physical ass kicking prime. Logan was born around 1882-1885. He was over a century old, when he kicked the bucket. Laura is a baby considered to him. She can go on for numerous more decades.

He doesn't regret it. He's actually happy about it. Anything that makes him different makes him happy about it.

It is not proven or disproven yet whether she has superhuman longevity or not, but the odds are that she does. Even if she didn't she'd probably still fight because of her abilities.

Looking forward to getting this show on the road.

If anyone wants to ever work with the Prince of Lies hit me up, and we can discuss ideas. Faen would be very keen to have an ally (read: meatshield) at his side.

Wulk and Darkhawk are accepted! With Darkhawk though, unless he's dealing with an 80 year old Kingpin or Tombstone he'll likely have to update them as well or continue their legacy....

80 year old Kingpin could work. A lot of what makes him so dangerous is his mind, contacts and influence. He could still have all of that when he's 80.

Pretty sure my kid picked something up at his last basketball game. I basically pay to get in those games just to get the flu and watch my kid play ball a total of four to ten minutes per game LOL.
