You forgot the "For Official Use Only" section... but it looks fine enough.

<Snipped quote by alexfangtalon>

Modern, but I don't really have a set kind of timeline to the story.

@DrewVonAwesome

Thank you.. May i ask whether we are in Marvel earth 616, The Marvel Cinamatic Universe, or All New, All Different? I prefer the MCU as it has the most room to grow and we could set it as post infinity war...

[flightless-angel-castiel]

@DrewVonAwesome I'm gonna pester you now too! haha. I was curious as to what you didn't like about my character's powers, I thought they seemed all right and pretty at level with everyone else's?

@Sionnie

This is my understanding of it:

It's pretty much whatever you want it to be. The background/specifics of the setting are best described as "generic," and can bend to whatever is more convenient for your backstory, as long as you're not stepping on the toes of other players.

@Sionnie

I'm going on 616 based... but if you need to make some particular change I'm open to stuff.

@flightless-angel-castiel

Well its more I was hoping for more classic styled powers but since it doesn't really feel that way with many of the characters its more personal preference than anything particularly fundamentally wrong with them. Don't sweat it really.

[Sionnie]

@DrewVonAwesomeIf demon swords are too complicated, i have a speedster that slow time around her to give her the effect that she has super speed or hastes herself to actually have super speed. she can also jump 15 seconds forward or backwards in time to undo something that went terribly wrong.. If this concept is easier than i will play her instead...

@DrewVonAwesome

Ahh, I understand you, now. I won't sweat it like I had earlier then lol! Anyway, gonna safely assume Nick is accepted and go toss him into the character tab.

[Awesomoman64]

@DrewVonAwesome
Any thoughts on my character? Or have you not had a chance to look him over yet?

@DrewVonAwesome

My character's history is a mixmatch of 616 and MCU, so if there's any one thing to change, I would say maybe we keep the ultron storyline from MCU canon here since we already have so many characters tied to Hank and Will really likes the idea of Grandfather Tony having made vision. That and this is just the sad rantings of moi; "Bring back Uncle Pietro!"

[alexfangtalon]

@DrewVonAwesome I meant more like is it pre-Civil War or post-Civil War?

@DrewVonAwesome

Idk what plots you have for the avengers Academy, but I'd like to suggest giving every chara a main arc at one point since i just had the crazy idea. Maybe not in the beginning, but later on we could do a roulette with the charas names and let them have a main arc and then we take their name off and roulette again so everyone has their time to be the chara in the limelight? Something sort of akin to the comics or cartoon shows where a chara has an entire episode, sometimes more dedicated to them.

Just an idea :p

@tenebrae16

Great idea!

[alexfangtalon]

Full name: Cassandra Lang
Alias/Codename: Stature
Age: 18
Country of origin: USA (New York City, New York)
Basic appearance: Long blond hair that is usually in a ponytail. Her normal height is 5'9" and she is thin with a little muscle.

Costume

Skills: Stealth, Martial Arts, Taking care of others, Defusing tense situations, telling if someone is lying or not.

Powers

Cassie Lang has the ability to increase and decrease her size. She can become roughly 40 feet (12 m) tall and can shrink to the size of an ant. Her abilities seemed to be fueled by her emotions. She grows when she gets angry and shrinks when she feels guilty. Cassie seems to have become more powerful since first demonstrating her powers, as she has in recent issues surpassed her previous growth limit. At first she struggled to shrink to 6 inches and grow to 10–15 feet. She has been seen growing larger than the Skrull Yellowjacket, who could grow to at least 100 feet (30 m) tall. It was established that she and Hank Pym share an upper limit of somewhere around 250 feet (76 m) in height, and that, if she keeps her bigger dimensions for too long, Cassie will suffer from strains that will eventually force her to shrink back down.

Brief bio:

Bio

Cassie Lang is the daughter of Ant-Man Scott Lang. She is actually the primary reason why her father stole the Ant-Man suit and Pym Particles. She is close to many other superheros going to the point of at one time calling Iron Man "Uncle Tony". She is often involved in events where her father is and has a deep love for the world of superheros.

After her father dies she decides to runaway from her disapproving mother and step-father. She, along with Kate Bishop, goes to the Avengers Mansion to join the Young Avengers. When denied Cassie shows she has the ability to shrink and grow based on her mood. She along with the rest of the Young Avengers defeat Kang and after Iron Lad leaves and Iron Man and Captain America try to force the group to disband Kate and Cassie don't let it happen. After which Cassie takes on the name Stature.

After the events of Civil War she leaves the Young Avengers. She joins the Initiative and there battles Eric O'Grady for insulting her father. After the battle Hank Pym comes to her and suggests she go to Avengers Academy to train and eventually become an Avenger like her father had. She decides to join Avengers Academy in hopes of becoming a full Avenger and honoring the legacy of her father.

(For official use only)

Initial observation report: Strong-willed and determined. She won't let anything get in the way of her goals.

Training regimen/expertise: She knows various martial arts. She trains as often as she can and also reads up on information on various villains while coming up with different battle strategies to take them down. So advanced training for her is a possibility.

Potential outlook: High potential due to her extreme drive to be a hero.

Best case scenario: Takes the place of her father in the Avengers.

Worst case scenario: Works with Kang the Conqueror due to her having fallen in love with Iron Lad.

Students/Living quarters:

@DrewVonAwesome An update on what I've got. Added to the bio and did more in the official use only part.

[Dead Cruiser]

...so can we get a ballpark of when the IC is going up?

Ready to get started

[Sionnie]

@Dead Cruiser I know myself as others are not quiet ready to star as we wait for the gm's response.. And the gm does not come around often unfortunantly.. I mean no offence Mr. Gm. i only mean to point out that seem to be very busy and that does take it's toll on the progress of a roleplay.. The most important player is the gm and the less they are here the slower things move along..

I am here, popping in several time a day.. I do think availability is important and i could probably start one and keep up with it if i wanted easily.. problem is it would be my first time being a Gm and i would rather join someone else's... I am sure Drew doing his absolute best so i'm just waiting..

[tenebrae16]

Idk, the GM can always appoint other mods if he's busy, but its understamdable if he doesnt want to trust his baby with anyone else.

@tenebrae16

I fully agree. He does not know any of us so i would expect him to trust us..

(I decided to see what would happen if i do open up a marvel rp.. if you guys want in it your welcome.. truth is i am simply impatient and that is my issue. not the gm's fault here. i will still hang around this one more unless the other kicks off sooner. if your interested it is called Avengers: The Next Generation. I chose a risky plot and also recommend you use i different character from this rp in it so there is still someone fresh and new to play here.)

[Shard]

Real life often comes in the way, I am fully aware of that. However, if the activity of the RP is the way it is now, I fear how it will be once it actually kicks off. People are somewhat patient now, for most part, but once we start waiting for each other's replies and once the GM will be tasked with constantly progressing the RP, I am unsure how long this RP will last.

While I am not trying to be passive aggressive or throw blame, I am stating an observation I've picked up throughout the time we've been waiting for the RP to start. I am more than certain that the GM has a very busy life, however due to this, his presence here has been rather lacking.

When the RP starts, the GM's presence will be demanded much more and given what's been going on so far, I am skeptical as to how long this will manage to survive.

That is exactly what i am worried about..
