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

[Lookie]

Ahh, I don't know where to start! I'm sure I'll be able to post something today, though.

Also, I'm not sure which codename I like better: Shifter or Morph. Those kinda work best with the character. Both are names that have been used in the comics, but I guess there's nothing one can do about that.

Delly's in the common room wolfing down snacks, which seemed the most appropriate place to begin with an 18 year old. Anybody wants to interact with her, feel free.

[MrDidact]

Ah teenage assholery at it's finest.

[Luminous Beings]

Indeed. I do think, while not wholly right, some of her viewpoints will be proven right by the end of all this.

[MrDidact]

Is the League perfect? No. But at the end of the day, they're just normal people who try to help other people.

[Luminous Beings]

Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. They may be trying to help people, but operating outside the law, with extensive resources and capabilities way beyond that of a normal human? I don't see them staying noble and pure long-term, personally.

[MrDidact]

That's the point they're regulated by law. And it's up to the players to make sure the League stays straight. The main point of the RP is how the players change the world. and they were never meant to be completely pure. It's an organization like the FBI or the Police and it features people.

Imma gonna get a post up with Volt later tonight, and I think I might have him join Delly, if you don't mind.

[Shoryu]

I am late! But I am here! 'stuff' happened for a couple of days but i'm finishing up my character now Didact!

[MrDidact]

Go ahead and post that baby up.

Do we have a Tony Stark expy yet? I had planned on making a "Engineering Genius Billionaire" character, but not if that sort of niche is already taken.

[MrDidact]

We have a scientist. But we don't have any power armor wearers. Plus like I said I don't like people to mix two awesome things like being rich and a genius.

[Lookie]

I think I'll join one Killshade at the pool. Wonder if he's up for some friendly competition?

How about being rich and having cool toys built by others? Cool power armor minus the smarts, yes?

[MrDidact]

Yeah basically.

Sure, I can understand why having two phenomenal characteristics would be an issue, but the combination of rich and genius shouldn't be as much of a problem; in this corporate world, money comes with incredible ideas, especially in the realm of technology. If she was a genius first at building cool mechanical armor/robots, then the money naturally flows in. It'd be more improbable that she doesn't become filthy rich considering her personality.

[MrDidact]

Well there's more to making money in Corporate America then being a genius. She has to be savvy and ruthless too. I can buy her living comfortably but I wouldn't like to be a Bruce Wayne Billionaire.

[Abysse]

What even is Bruce Wayne's deal? How is he rich? What is his business?

In any case I hadn't planned on it being Bruce Wayne levels. Certainly comfortable living, maybe one or two homes, nice car, designer clothing...

[MrDidact]

His family company is really rich apparently.

Ok, more like that guy from Breaking Bad then haha. That should be fine.
