This is why I am busy writing a CS for the man who will be Carol's one true nemesis:

The Anarchistic Armless Tiger Man


I'm going to work Armless Tiger Man into at least one post. You have my word.

Edited my Lawless CS. I forgot that the city in the comics is named Center City, not Central City. Changed that and added a fourth post to use as a reference.

I'd have to see what you got before anything else. There's a few X-events in the timeline but nothing too much.

Hell, assuming we find your posts sufficient I imagine seeing an application also for Batgirl wouldn’t be completely out there. assuming If you decided you’d want to do that, of course.


Yay!

Though, my only hesistance with Babs is the killing joke and how that would unravel in an RP. People tend to have big dividers over which Babs they prefer and I'm no different. I mean, I like Oracle, but I connect with Babs' Batgirl...but, assuming I'm allowed to go for her in the future, we shall see what happens.

I want to see if I can head down to the comic book store today and look for some Selina comics and get into the swing of her humor again. If not I'll just have to fall back and what I have at home :/ Ether way, I'm looking forward to this RP and playing her. It'll be something fresh, seeing as I never have before.

If you want my opinion, I’m partial to Batgirl Barbara. Whilst her run as Oracle was excellent, The Killing Joke was supposed to be a non-canon comic event originally and I have a lot of hang-up’s how they used her as a plot device and shock value rather than approached it as a interesting character thing. This is of course just my opinion, but I find that Barbara is plenty interesting and dynamic without The Killing Joke. DCAU made her brilliant without resorting to those lengths. Barbara Gordon is actually probably in my top 20 DC characters and for good reason. :F

But yay fresh.



Plus it'd be too early for Oracle so NYAH.

So let's try this again. A little something I tried before in Ultimate DC, but didn't push through at the time.

| Identity |
Greg Saunders, the Vigilante.

| Attributes |
None. Greg Saunders is an old man with a decent right hook and some marksman skills, but that's it.

| Origin |
Greg Saunders was born in New York City on a cool November day in 1941 to Mort and Thelma Saunders. Tragedy struck quickly, as just a few short months later, Mort was one of the first American soldiers to be killed in action in the Pacific theatre of war. Thelma was left to raise the baby alone, but fortunately, Mort's father Pat came to her aid. He moved in with the family of two, providing money and care.

Pat Saunders had been a frontiersman, a minor legend as a gunslinger and deputy sheriff that later turned to acting in Westerns during the early years of cinema. A rather uneventful career, it must be said, but one that would shape most of Greg's youthful imagination: Pat loved showing his old films to his grandson (he also taught him a few things about guns). Especially inspiring to Greg was a short cowboy flick entitled Vengeance of the Vigilante.

In the film, the titular hero covered his face with a red bandana and meted out justice to those who killed his family. Was it any surprise when a twenty-five year old Greg Saunders donned the same disguise when hoodlums severely beat his grandfather? The thugs had been dealing drugs and accosting women and Pat had felt it necessary to say something. For beating his grandfather and mentor into a coma, Greg - calling himself the Vigilante - dismantled the entire gang and handed them over to the police.

In the years afterwards, Greg - now running his own small maintenance shop - would don the disguise time and time again. An urban cowboy working outside the confines of the law. He even picked up a sidekick for a while, Jimmy Leong aka The Chinatown Kid. Together, they became fearsome foes against injustice in the working class neighbourhoods of New York. Their fame was local, the only tangible evidence of their existence a short profile piece in The New York Times. That, and the lives changed of those they'd helped.

Shortly after his sixtieth birthday, Greg Sanders left New York - and the Vigilante - behind. By then, he had done well for himself. He was a respected man in the community, had run a good business, married a loving wife (Marie) and raised a good son (Pat, Jr.). He retired along with his wife to Florida (her idea). She passed away a few months ago, the victim of an inoperable brain tumour.

Greg Saunders is well into his 72nd year on the planet.

He is tired.

And he just got a letter from The Chinatown Kid.

| Goals |
Let's just say I've got a story I want to tell.

None, besides, y'know, Byrd.

So, my tagging in the interest thread didn't work so let's try it again:

@GreenGrenade @Vandy @BlackSam3091 @Natty @The New Yorker @FacePunch @Angel Vicky @Spud @Sep

Alright, so consider this a formal invitation/announcement if you fellow comic RPer's I've worked with in the past (or will be in ASM) didn't get the memo. Guage your interest and see if you'd like to be part of the wonderful world of Maximum Comics!


Yo! Cheers for the invite! Shall have to think about this as I already have a number of characters over in ASM and I'm currently a bit behind there, as well as in another RP (I'm currently in the process of catching up and whatnot though!).

One character i did have in mind was Killer Moth, who would essentially disappear from Gotham after some embarassing defeat from Batman, only to return a few years later after having travelled the world is a very similar manner to Bruce, training. In a similar way as to how Catman turned from being a major joke into a badass! However I saw that he's going to be an upcoming rogue for Batman in your CS Gowi?

Yeah, I sort of originally designed him (and Danko, his not-alfred) as a upper class thief with a moth motif. He and Robin get into a tough fight before Moth escapes, which is when Bette Kane truly falls in love with Robin (Moth was robbing the Kane's). There's more to it than that, but thats the cliffnotes version.

I'm trying to figure out his history in accordance to the timeline to ensure that everything pan's out. As a question how old would you figure he would be?

He was probably in his mid-twenties or early-thirties in the 80s if I had to guess. But that's speculation based on the timeline.

So somewhere between 50 and 60 cool...that works perfectly into my plan. Now to narrow his backstory down a bit and see if I can fit it.

GM event post is done, so once I get CS's approved we can get this dog and pony show on the road.

Remember that this is a broadcast/event that all characters should probably be aware of. Whether you reflect on it is up to you, but I would love you forever if you acknowledged it.
