[Blackwolf]

haha I'm having to say that i'm loving Alice...."ridiculous outfit equals superhero"XD

[Ziogen]

Well, that or a metro-modern artist.

@.@

Glad I make her amusing. I like RPing dark characters but hate making them too edgy.

[Aura]

Gah I so want to post but I gotta wait ><

What time zones do you guys all live in btw? Maybe then I can get a general idea when to check the forum. I live in Aussie :)

LOL you mean Erwin? I dated a girl for awhile who lived out that way, it's just about 30-45 minutes away, probably closer since I moved from my hometown. The mountains and the scenery are nice, but ride safe and don't do 90 mph. Cruise and enjoy the surroundings. I just had a friend die in a motorcycle/car related accident and it's not worth the rush. Go bungee jumping for thrills, or skydive. It's what I do...

Hey guys (and girls), I've recently been hired, and I will be starting my job soon, unfortunately, between the job and school, I won't be able to roleplay any more. You could kill off Damien or something, your choice, or I can just make a final post with him deciding not to meddle with the radiation thing and return to his job of healing the poor.

[Blackwolf]

Umm benit...I would just like to state that the two groups of people are no where near eachother...the one with alice(pizza girl) isn't even in the quarantine zone. So if you in the quarantine zone the only one you would see is tentacle hentai boy. And lucian who is currently a dog.

and also I recommend the 2nd one just in case you do find you have more time then you thought and want to return.

If he's our healer then I'll probably use him as an NPC later on to help cure the melted people who can still be saved. We won't kill him off and when you get a more set schedule, assuming the game keeps up the momentum, you can come back. I just started my new job a few weeks back so I understand the mess and aggravation that can cause.

On a side note, Shockwave is deaf and mute? Did I miss something in the CS [actually just reread the bio and realized I only read about half originally]?

I think after his stay in the hospital, you should give him like a psychological handicap where his being deaf and mute is because of the trauma and affecting his powers in a way that he can't turn his voice and ears back 'on'. He's still young enough to not have mastered his abilities completely. He's more of a physical badass. I really enjoyed that first post.

Still catching up, posting soon...

If anyone is up for rescuing survivors over beating up liquefied zombies, I would be willing to have CB partner up with at least one or two other heroes (although she won't say she was hired). In my latest post, it's mentioned that she doesn't like big crowds, so if a big group happened, she would want to get out of it.

[Omega Man]

I think to keep from using Plex as my go-to hero for games where I think a multiple-man could be useful [in Legion I have a speedster/multiple-man], and since we're in Engine City... I think I want to write Plex out as an NPC and maybe use him as an enemy under different circumstances. But I'll let his network of duplicates still be an information highway for anyone who needs it in-game. I came up with somebody I think is cool and like a mix of the Flash and Green Lantern....



Fastlane can run around the world in roughly two and a half days at a top speed of over half the speed of sound at 390 mph. Just over a mile in ten seconds. On top of this, he has the ability to absorb solar energy and convert it into creating yellow tinted hard light construct bridges, roads, railroad or trolley tracks, etc. in case of roads or bridges and tracks going out or there being some huge accident during a larger scale battle with a superhuman criminal. He can also use the power to make himself a road or track to run over water with, or into the air. It's like giving a kid the power to make Hot Wheels playset tracks life sized but instead of driving a car being fast enough to run on foot through them...

[Omega Man]

Gonna delete my profile in the opening post and repost this there but wanted to make sure you guys saw it in case you're not checking the opening post for the GM updates and whatnot. Still need a deputy GM...

Name - Mitchell Alan Lane, 'Mal' to his friends
Alias - Fastlane
Age - 22
Powers - super speed of 390 mph, a little over a mile in ten seconds; enhanced healing; the suit provides solar energy absorbsion leading into creating hard light construct roads, bridges, tracks, etc...
Weaknesses - while he heals about ten times faster than a regular human, Mal has problems healing from more serious injuries. If his bones break he needs to set them quickly before they heal wrong, same goes for anything more than a flesh wound that would involve surgery. His powers also greatly depend on how much he eats and drinks [he HAS to stay hydrated] as well as absorbing sunlight as often as possible.
Personality - impulsive, street-smart, honorable
Appearance -
BRIEF Bio - Mal was your average 18 year old until he took a trip to the lake with some friends one night after school his senior year at Thomas Sweeney High School. After a lightning storm poured through Engine City the final bolt of lightning struck the water leaving an odd smoke coming off of it. After dipping his feet in the water for half the night after passing out following some under aged drinking, Mal woke with super speed. After coming into contact with fellow speedster albeit a lot shorter Richard "Tyke" Bartlett, Mal met Dr. Theodore Hall who developed the hard light construct tech and solar energy absorbing/processing suit. Coming up with the Fastlane identity, Hall let Mal test the suit over the last six months however he was one of the people in Carter Hills during the incident. Hall's safety and wherabouts are unknown. But Fastlane will do everything in his power to help with the survivors.
Notes - Mal has done occasional vigilante work the last few years as a blur in the human eye, he's been Fastlane for roughly six months in-costume. Notable monuments in Engine City include Battery Park, Engine City Speedway [ECS for short], Jefferson Heights, Warpath River, Engine City Technical Community College, Thomas Sweeney High School, etc...

He is technically at this moment only deaf(which is why his powers are a little advanced because with out them he can't hear) as for being mute...I honestly haven't decided on weather or not he is actually mute or simply chooses not to talk. I also had the idea that the reason he never talks is because his throat was damaged during the crash, so he can talk but for some reason he has no control over his voice. So like he says hi and anything in front of him gets hit with a blast of powerful sound pressure that could kill them...so he doesn't talk.

Well, I'll wait on you to have Damien bow out of the scene then.

At this rate I'm going to have to make Lucina walk away from Avery cause I'm dying to post ><

[Omega Man]

I'm reworking a post I began earlier with Plex and writing him out to bring in my new guy. I used a side character from another player's post in his Bio as well since it was a speedster. I <3 that he was a shorter guy and his nickname was Tyke. Will have my post up before too much longer.

Finishing up my post now. Fell asleep last night on the couch. May introduce a couple superhuman criminal threats in other parts of the city so we don't all converge in one five block area. But when you guys think about it, ya know damn near every Marvel character is based in NYC? And Astro City is populated by plenty of superheroes and villains....

Don't know if you got my last PM lol
