[OOC] Sensation & Wonder: An Absolute Comics Roleplay [DC & Marvel One Universe Style Game]

[Roman]

@Roman I'll definitely come your way with some bullets gallore if Bucky ever resurfaces.

@Sep

I've actually been mulling over the Cap/Frank relationship; Frank's deep respect for Steve is a big part of their dynamic in the comics, just as much as Steve's disdain for Frank's methods. But with my anti-government leaning for Frank, and Steve heading up SHIELD in this, I like the idea that Frank has grown disillusioned from him and sees him now more of a resting-on-his-laurels figurehead to legitimise SHIELD in the eyes of the public, and he sees SHIELD as little more than an overfunded government enforcement agency with metahumans on the payroll. So it could be interesting!

Oh for sure. Where are the street-level heroes? I need characters I can interact with on even ground, not living gods who can think Frank out of existence.

@Roman

Frank's a staple of the Midnight Sons in the comics. He can always help Raven fuck some bad men up.
And y'know. Dwell on his own personal guilt or whatever.

I actually really like this.

[Lord Wraith]

I love the smell of new character sheets in the morning.

@Lord Wraith

And what do new sheets smell like exactly?

@Sep

Really depends on the sheet. Some of them are more overwhelming and more musky, others have that tantalizing smell like when a steak first hits a hot grill.

[Hillan]

I tend to make a smelly sheet in the morning.

I'm more surprised by how many supernatural cast members we're getting. Usually the mystical side is underrepresented

Salem is always welcome in my thread.

I need to figure out a way to add more witches and black cats to the RP.

But only the funny version

I think of either going for Mr. Freeze or Joker from DC animated cartoons Brave and the Bold and Harley Quinn 2019 although Heath Ledger's Joker is so memorable.

@Ever Faithful

Since they're Bat-Legacies make sure you just check with @Master Bruce so the two of you can figure out a way to make it work :)

Man, I always want to join these comic RPs because of how cool they always are but I'm pretty insecure about my lack of comic knowledge

We’re all dumb as shit. Can’t be any worse with comic knowledge than some folks

Honestly don't be, I had 0 when I started playing these games and I learnt through hanging around with these nerds

[Zoey Boey]

hello. it's me again! i really really really love the different direction this version of the RP has taken. definitely has me very interested! i just have nooo idea what character to throw my hat in for.

now in 1968 i was told that grouping everyone up in gotham might be a bad idea. with this version being less focused on solo writing...is that like, not an issue anymore? i hope so.

the reason why i ask is because one of my possible ideas is a kind of Cassandra Cain. And i think she'd work really well with the middle aged batman submission and the tim drake.

[Sep]

@Zoey Boey I feel like historically we've struggled if people are together as we are all trying to write our own stories. Whereas in this one a select few are writing stories, and other people are just helping.

So using Batman as an example against as it's the easiest. There will be times where Batman, Robin and Batgirl will all be working together to fulfill the Batman players story (saaaay, Joker has planted a bomb for shits and gigs), there'll also be times where they won't be (looking for the Joker after disarming said bomb) but they're still working on the exact same story.

If that makes sense.
