[Weird Tales]

am I the only one with a member of the JL?

[Chain]

@Weird Tales Think I'm writing up either an Atom or a Grifter who will be a member of the JL.

[Dead Cruiser]

If MM doesn't work I have some ideas for Lobo, potentially.

[The Angry Goat]

@Weird Tales I'm doing either Shade or an OC I've done in the past that'll be on the JL if it needs members

[Unknown100]

How many street-level characters do we have so far in the coming rp? Cause I was thinking about writing one that at least in the first part (and probably for the longest time) was one.

Edit: just in terms of teaming up and stuff.

@Unknown100

If @Simple Unicycle does The Question that'll be one. And if if I do my Red Arrow that'll be two.

Possiblity of Grifter and Midnighter have been mentioned also.

I have often lurked around your RPs, but have never joined one. I see that you put a lot of love and effort into your work and I’d like to submit an original character to this. Given how I can only focus on one character, however, I won’t be making a secondary character.

Do you allow magically created characters? More precisely, Necromantically reanimated characters. If so, I have something in mind. If not, I will try to think of something else.

As a general question, do you ever make a discord chat room where players can get to know each other out of character?

[Omega Man]

@Endrance Haven't been KL for awhile now LOL

@Shard Magic based characters are fine. I generally make Discords for my RPs. I'll likely take a break from making a new one for a week or two...

Silver Bolt

Player Name: @Endrance

Primary Character:
Kali Pierce//Silver Bolt

Status:
Titan

Age:
18

City:
Born in the suicide slum of Metropolis, currently in San Fran

Day Job:
Student//Server at a Diner

Powers:
Electric Transfer: Kali can move through pole wires, copper wires etc at high speeds in order to get to populated destinations. Currently she is limited by her ability to stop moving through wires as she overshoots destinations by having poor motor control.

Electricity Manipulation: She is able to produce a significant amount of electrical energy at a high voltage if using an electrical source since currently she cannot store a large enough amount of electrical energy within her. If using the stored electricity within her, smaller blasts occur at a lower voltage

Electromagnetism: Kali can create a small electric field around herself that typically forms subconsciously when tired or under attack.

Conductivity:Abilities super enhanced when used upon a substance or villain made of specific alloys/Polar (water-based) beings. Can supercharge metals to send them flying.

Weaknesses:
⏛ DiHydrogen Monoxide ;): Water will cause her electric field to shock her when produced, Powers used in the rain become haywire.

Earth: Inaffective against things that do not conduct electricity, as in any earth styled foe/ability.

Standard Human weaknesses if past electromagnetic barrier.

Skills:
Currently in her first year of uni, Kali has a limited understanding of general chemistry. She hopes to apply this knowledge towards her abilities one day.

Appearance:

Kali stands at a solid 5'9" height. Her deep brown skin glistens in the sun as her melanated body soaks up the rays. She's got a rounded nose that curves slightly down, a slightly wider than average forehead with tight curls springing wildly forth. Her edges are almost always laid to the gods. Her hooded brown eyes seem to encompass the universe beneath her glasses. She's very flat chested, but she's got nice, proportional curves to her strong thick legs. Her stomach is typically flat minus when she's sporting a food baby. She typically dresses in a crop top with high waisted pants and some nice kicks when she's at uni. If she's feeling good she'll fashion a headscarf and wear it as a bow or turban. However this is her form only when she's out of energy (low battery form).

When in her unsuppressed form, Silver Bolt's body is almost all black with silver outlining, and bolts erupting as hair from the top of her hair almost down to her ankles. Her eyes crackle with pure silver electricity, and her lips purse with silver streaks. She looks as a humanoid made of almost all electricity.

BRIEF Bio:
Kali was born in the southside of metropolis to Jefferson and Lyssa Pierce, after Jefferson decided he had a solemn duty to protect his people from gangs, metahumans, and gentrification. From birth, Kali had intense silver-grey eyes which lead to her being given the Swahili name for fierce. As a toddler, she would wander towards electrical sockets and almost blow fuses, which lead to Black Lightning picking up a job near the home, as principal of Garfield high. Special care had to be taken to keep her away from walls and anything electric to keep her balanced. When she was about 8, her father got into an almost deathly altercation with the 100, which lead to an extremely anxiety/scared prone Kali. Upon seeing her father extremely bloodied one late night, she transformed for the first time and used her energy to heal him. At 15, her parents divorced due to irreconcilable differences over the hero lifestyle. As much as she wanted to stay in the southside to work alongside her father, she was curiously given a full scholarship to move on the west coast, which her dad forced her to accept so that she'd stay out of the hero lifestyle he had known to cause so much problems. After dealing with a simple bank robbery, Silver Bolt decided to ignore her fathers warnings, and her own qualms about superhero work, and join up with the teen titans.

Supporting Characters:

Zola Martin: Kali's best friend from southside. They were both accepted into the university together, and while kali is pursuing a biochemical route, Zola wants to be a reporter. She currently doesn't know about Kali's abilities. Has a huge obsession with paranormal phenomenon.

Marie Dennis: A Jamaican professor Kali has grown quite fond of. She teaches Microscopy and light optics which comes at an interest for Kali in relation to her powers. She's somewhat of a mentor to her and is the only one who knows her alias as Silver Bolt. Whenever she needs a hiding spot to discharge and become her civilian form, Marie's lab is the place to go.

Secondary Character:
Not sure yet besides playing Black lightning here and there.

Additional Notes:
Noticible personality change when in electric form.

Uh. Lemme know if this is ok?

I could also make a JLU member if they're lacking spots.

[The Angry Goat]

@Omega Man are we allowed to immediately enter with both our primary and our secondary, or are you doing the 5 post quota again?

[Double]

@Omega Man

Player Name:
Double

Primary Character:
Citizen Cold (Formerly Captain Cold)

Secret Identity:
Leonard Snart
"Old" Friends usually called him Len
"New" Friends tend to call him Leo
And a mix of both often just call him Snart

Status:
JLU. Was rejected twice before they finally let him in, and even then, Batman said he was a "Probationary" Member. It's like they don't trust him or something.

Age:
30

City:
Central City, primarily. But he roams from time to time so he might pop up in other places on occasion.

Day Job:
Unfortunately there aren't really any jobs out there for former career thieves. It's part of the reason Snart drifts around from time to time.

Powers:
None

Weaknesses:
Take away the tech and Snart's just a human being.

Skills:
What Snart lacks in powers he easily makes up for in Skills and Gadgets.

Cold Gun - A weapon of Snart's invention. It's a gun powered by cyclotron able to produce cold and ice beams of varying sizes and power. He possess two of them. With them he can fire beams that freeze targets, create cold fields that can stop people within them in their tracks, and even a more sadistic beam that freezes body but prevents it from going numb to dull the pain.
Cold Grenade - An explosive weapon, similar in function to the Cold Guns, but intended for wider areas of effect.
Thieving Skills - It's no surprise a former career criminal like Snart has practically mastered various skills related to the craft. Be it lockpicking, safecracking, even scaling walls and avoiding detection. Granted, he's no ninja, but he's not an amateur either.
Unarmed Fighting - While obviously not the same level as Batman or others, Snart is no slouch when it comes to combat either.
Tactician - While he won't be taking on Batman in a game of chess anytime soon, Snart was once the leader of The Rogues for a reason. His plans were often the best-made ones, and his tactics against superhero enemies often the most most effective.

Appearance:


BRIEF Bio:
To make a long story short, Leonard Snart and his sister Lisa were raised in an abusive home. Leonard at first found solace with his grandfather who owned and operated an ice truck. But when his grandfather passed, Leonard had had enough of his abusive father and ran away. This led to a life of crime and thievery, where Leonard quickly took the lead in a small five-man team of thieves. Their planned crime spree was cut a bit short due to superhero interference, but Leonard managed to escape capture. Deciding that he need to upgrade himself to keep up with the Metas, Snart stole a shipment of cyclotron and then designed his first Cold Gun. He dubbed himself Captain Cold and the rest was history, as it were.

Sometime later, Cold discovered that his estranged sister Lisa had also found a life of crime. He tried to convince her to go straight at first, but she simply retorted by pointing out that Len was also a criminal and even abandoned her to endure their father's abuses alone to boot. They parted ways again, Lisa having donned the identity of Golden Glider and performing risky heists with her partner, a man called Chillblaine. But Lisa was later killed by her own partner during a heist gone wrong. When news reached Len, he teamed up with his former partner Heat Wave, and the duo hunted down and eventually killed Chillblaine to avenge Lisa's death. It was the first and only time Leonard had ever gone against his self-imposed code to never kill anyone. And it was enough that he hung up the mantle for a time, attempting to go straight. But with no one willing to hire him due to a criminal past, the next best thing Leonard could do was take up the mantle again, but this time he would do it in the name of justice. He had hard time convincing anyone from the Justice League that he was serious about going straight. In fact, most of them still don't trust him. He happened to be in Metropolis on the day Doomsday attacked, and while Cold was smart enough not to pick a fight with him, he helped a few people wherever he could. That was apparently enough to convince Batman of all people that Snart really was trying to turn over a new leaf. Batman let him join the League, but made it clear that Snart would be on some kind of probation until he "proved himself" to the rest of the League. But old habits tend to die hard, and is not helped by the fact that his old friend and partner Heat Wave is still at large, along with plenty of other former Rogues that might not be too happy with Leonard switching sides.

Supporting Characters:
Lisa Snart (Golden Glider) - Deceased
Mick Rory (Heat Wave)
Digger Harkness (Captain Boomerang)
Owen Mercer (Captain Boomerang II)

Secondary Character:
Heat Wave

Additional Notes:
The basic idea is that Snart is trying to go legit. This could end either with him fully joining the League or with him being unable to gain their trust and possibly end up back with the Rogues.

@Omega Man are we allowed to immediately enter with both our primary and our secondary, or are you doing the 5 post quota again?

@The Angry Goat

I thought I mentioned it here in the thread however it might have been in the old Discord. Secondaries will be available after two posts in-game. Remember though you can choose to opt out and just tell solo stories of your character away from their respective teams.

I'm thinking for the JL I may recreate the Ray and make him a legacy character who's great grandfather was the original Ray back in WWII.

- Ω

[Omega Man]

@Double Primaries have to be JLU or Titans. Can't have solo characters or secondaries until making two posts in-game.

[Double]

Whelp, I tried. Peace out, y'all.

[Double]

Forgive the abruptness of the above message. I preferred the idea of actually having to earn a spot in the League because being in the League right out of the starting gate just seems dull to me. Like, where do you even go from there?

[rocketrobie2]

@Double you could have one of the main leaguers trusting snart but have him struggle to win over the others. Maybe have the classic arc where the league thinks there’s a mole and everyone immediately assumes it’s cold only to be proven wrong

[Omega Man]

@Double The problem with the last DCU game was that we had more solos than team players. Everybody wanted a similar situation, however none of them followed through IIRC.

Cold could've been in Metropolis on the day Doomsday attacked and he could've helped save citizens. League offered membership to most of the heroes who helped during then, unless they were obviously still too young or inexperienced.
