[OOC] The League - First Blood (Persistent World Superhero Sci Fi and Fantasy, Always Open)

[MrDidact]

Yog, Yeah I would. As long as any abilities they have didn't come from a "These Romas be totally magical yo" kinda deal like in older comics. *Cough* Doom *cough

I'd love to see superheroes from other countries than the US and Britain. I mentioned in the Allies sheet that Sonja's parent company also sponsors guys in Germany, South Africa, India, and the Philippines. I've been having some fun imagining how other cultures might approach superheroes.

[Abysse]

Well Pakstas, when I first made her sheet, was from a post-soviet country. Wanted to integrate the Soviet's fall with some sort of superheroism (or at least, since the Awakening was in 2012, someone who was later to become a superhero).

[Mixtape Ghost N]

Alright, I think I can post soonish.

Ummm... What did I miss at the prison?

I definitely like that idea. For sure, the protector of Vilnius or Budapest is going to have a far different approach than someone who works out of Chicago.

The fight in the courtyard has wound to a close. Volt, Sonja, Hot-Rod, Light, Killjoy and The Flashbolt Acolyte have all entered the prison and are taking on the inmates escaping there. Volts ally, Silvertongue, has hacked the prison cameras and is relaying the feed too all the heroes with headsets.

[Dingo]

New post! Tried to leave it ambiguous enough so the other guards could react. I figure stray bullets could still strike people, tables could be dragged in, etc.

Mostly been rolling die to see if things work or not which is why Rift Hound didn't get to keep the gun and why it didn't go off when the body was rolling down the stairs. Over to you, Didact!

[Abysse]

Which brings up another point... are we allowed to mess with modern history?

So, could I have Nikki just tag along?

[An Outsider]

Course you could. Volt is currently facing off with the Surgeon and Rot, with Emmaunuel soon to arrive on the scene. You could have her follow them in.

Wait are you saying that I can't make a Roma character with magical abilities.

I think he's saying don't make a Roma with magic abilities JUST because they are Roma. Explain why they have those abilities, beyond he fact that Roma's are 'known' for being magical.

Also, if you have any problems with me using the Surgeon in my post, or how I've described the Mandrakes, let me know and I'll change it MrD.

Oh, now thats something that I would like to behold. I'll even write you a ballad for it

Now, I'm not saying i'm going to make him for this RP, but if I did, he'd look a little something like this, driving around and listening to Power Ballads. :P

Codename: Love Fist

Age: 25

Gender: Male

Place of Birth: Mexico City

Affiliations: None

Occupation: Freelance Hero

Appearance:


Powers:

Advanced Healing:
Edgardo can heal from any injury within 24 hours, provided it does not kill him. Limbs can be regrown, bullet wounds can heal, etc, but he can still die of blood loss or from a fatal head/heart shot.

Singular Resurrection:
Edgardo can come back to life after being killed once. After that, he can be killed permanently.

Raw, Overwhelming Spirit Energy:
With each passing day, Edgardo's Spirit Energy grows and accumulates without limit. He can use this raw, untamed energy to deliver brutal punches and kicks that can punch through magical barriers, shields or protective spells (provided he has enough spirit energy stored). Each passing day provides him with one point of spiritual energy. Each point of spiritual energy is equal to the strength of one professional MMA fighter.

Spiritual Fountain Totem (Fuente de Cibeles):
If Edgardo is within 500 feet of the Fuente de Cibeles in Mexico City, he can use it to gain infinite Spiritual Energy. This energy is only good for one attack and the energy will naturally dissipate if not used within one day, after which he needs to travel to the fountain again to replenish his energy.

Skills: Street brawler, musician.

Equipment/Resources: A black El Camino containing his clothes and an acoustic guitar.

Weaknesses: Edgardo has the same physical weaknesses of any man. He can be stabbed, shot and beaten, die if he falls from a great height, suffocate, etc.

Psychological Profile: Edgardo has a deep dislike for those who consider themselves superior or seek to subjugate others. He makes it his personally mission to best such people and teach them peace, love and humility.

Biography: PENDING

[An Outsider]

Ha, Lovefist. Excellent.

[MrDidact]

Yog, Basically what Sam said.

Abysse, Everything that happened before the Awakening happened in the real world but post Awakening the last few years were different. You could probably write small stuff happening because of the Awakening in different countries but nothing like "China completely collapsed" or "Israel was overrun" kinda stuff. Big geopolitical events would actually be determined by the players.

Sam, No it was a great post, just that when I wrote the mandrakes leaked fluid from their eyes I was implying that was a weakpoint.

That Lovefist tho. Just saying after a few years of fighting crime I'm pretty sure you'd shave some pounds :P

[An Outsider]

I didn't pick up on that, thank lord I'm not really strategizing for Sixgun or he would be screwed

I'll edit it in!

Being the selfless hero he is, he doesn't accept cash rewards. He does, however, accept food rewards.

Extreme innuendo detected.

Haha, nah just a discreet GTA reference :P
