[OOC] CLOSED - Ultimate One Universe: Season One

[Master Bruce]

Shout out to @Master Bruce for managing to make me feel slightly less self-conscious about my absurdly long post by posting an even longer one.

@Morden Man

That's what I'm here for.

Based so far on the comments in the OOC, I'd say you'd have the interest of myself and @HenryJonesJr

As for a location, there are six cities that the Surfer attacked with people from the Raft, these six cities are perfectly divided between three cities on the East Coast and three cities roughly located in the Central United States (Midwestern maybe?). So I would suggest either have the Surfer fight take place somewhere in between or somewhere notable. Off the top of my head, Washington seems like a good option because of the Triskelion being there.

Alternatively, the showdown could be at the Raft as that's in New York and accessible to Gwen. Though as Gwen and Iris have met, it's possible for Gwen to reach out to Iris for a lift.

The other big alternative is to completely jump to the West Coast which has remained out of conflict in all this and have the Surfer fight take place there. There's both San Francisco and Los Angeles for rather large targets, not to mention the DC Cities of Coast, Star and Gateway City.

Looking at the two actors, I'm still fairly confident the Robin who uttered 'Fuck Batman' was Dick and not Jason.

@Lord Wraith

Teleportation isn't outside the realm of possibility, since The Surfer teleported the villains to each hero. Maybe he somehow senses that the challenge is complete and teleports each Hero(and those that helped them, despite not officially being part of the challenge ex. Wonder Woman) to whatever the location of the showdown will end up being? That'd alleviate travel pains for a character like Gwen.

@DocTachyon

On that note, since Bekka and Gwen are together right now, Bekka can use her Mother Box to teleport both as an alternative to the Surfer doing it.

We just need a location to aim for.

As someone who is not participating, and hasn't read what has been posted:

If all the villains escaped from the Raft, and per MB's explanation of the event several pages back all the villains mentioned that they had escaped from there, would it not make sense for all the heroes who participated to converge on that location to investigate the cause? Or to return the defeated villains there? In which case, that seems like a great spot for the conclusion to me.

@Retired

Morden and I just arrived at the same conclusion, the Raft makes for the most logical location and it leads to the less amount of contrived coincidences for characters to arrive there.

So count me down as in favour of the finale happening at the Raft in N.Y.

@Retired

I concur with this. The Raft seems like the most sensible option – and, most importantly, the only option that doesn't rely on slightly cheap plot devices that stretch the imagination too much, such as characters conveniently being teleported cross-country into the thick of the action.

I love that Bekka is WW and Iris is the Flash in this. Working up my CS still, finished a micro some time in the late hours LOL.

@Lord Wraith

But how will you get there without fast travel? Cause you cant fast travel when there are enemies nearby.

"We have a Hulk."

Wait, I don't think I used that right...

[HenryJonesJr]

I would prefer the action take place in New York, if only because some of my major plans for next season require things in New York to be kind shitty at the beginning of the season

@HenryJonesJr

Unless there's any objections I think we're all leaning towards the Raft in New York at the moment.

Hey, my plans for my next character are predicated on things being shitty. Shitty city bros!

I have my epilogue post written for this year. It’s fun. The game gave me some ideas that already fit into my existing plans.

@AndyC

Do we ever? Hulk's one of the cursed characters. No one who picks him up ever keeps him longer than an arc or two, and certainly never for a whole season. Much like Punishe-- oh.

Well, it still stands for Hulk.

@HenryJonesJr

Hey! New York is my sandbox too, don't you go shitting it up without giving me a heads up, you son of a bitch.

But seriously though, I'm intrigued.

@Morden Man

Don’t worry, I don’t need it to be No Man’s Land Gotham. Just need enough collateral damage to swing a mayoral election and have people not too happy with Spider-Woman. :-D

@Eddie Brock

To be fair, it's hard to really come up with interesting takes on the Hulk. It's either the old Jekyll-and-Hyde routine, or it deviates so far that it starts to become unrecognizable. And that's not even getting into all of his other multiple personalities.

Lonnie Lincoln as mayor of NYC when?
