Could we get a roll-call on who's still interested in the RP?

Though for sure at some point we have to give Speed a temporary boost to his powers so that he can have his own kick-ass sequence like this XD.
EDIT: Or shit, maybe he is already capable of that but hasn't realized it yet. Maybe at some point after he becomes close with Billy, Billy is in danger and he has to push himself to velocities never attempted before in a desperate bid to save his new brother.

I’m not sure where to have Speed go.
Hmmm... You could have him trying to avoid the Sentinels as they rush through the halls, and then when he gets to the escape pods, maybe he has to figure out how to launch them. He could rapidly try different buttons on the console until he finally gets one working, and then he can decide whether to hit "Launch" or if he has a moral dilemma and tries to go back and help the others. Perhaps a connection to Billy sparks out of nowhere and he is overcome with a sudden feeling of guilt that he doesn't quite understand. Maybe both him and Billy experience some kind of spiritual vision where they see themselves together with Wanda and Vision as a family. Maybe this is a result of them having come into close contact and now moving away from each other again and it awakens the part of their souls that were connected in their previous lives as Wanda's children. Just an idea to give you something to post. If you decide to have Speed stay, he could hover his finger over the Launch button for a moment while he has this dilemma, and then end your post with him being like "Damn it!" and rushing back to get Billy.
just checking in to say i was waiting for martian to post with wolverine and darkhawk before i did anything more, but they seem to have been MIA for the past week. if there's nothing by the end of the day i'll move on with harley and jasper.
If nothing else, we can say the cryopods for Wolverine and Darkhawk malfunctioned and they never woke. We can bring the pods with us and maybe Martin and Harley can work on trying to get the pods working again so that they can be released from cryosleep when Martian returns to the RP.
sorry for the delay in posting. I meant to write this week but work has been crushing me. I'll try again on Friday.
Okay, no problem. Since it seems many of our players are getting bogged down from real life, I'll hold off a few more days before posting the Inquisitor's arrival, that way it gives everyone a chance to get something written.
I can happily wait if the RP is full, what ever is easier for y ou and the group really!
I have two characters ideas i have already built from previous hero styled RP's, I have a Atmokinetic character, a telekinetic/psionic type of character and a pyrokinetic.
Okay! Feel free to DM me more info about the characters and we'll go from there XD.
Is this still open?
Originally I was going to stop recruiting at this point, but it seems like some of our players may have lost interest, so sure! The 12 spots on the Arishem-Exar are technically filled, but I'll just do a quick edit to say it was more than 12 cryopods per vessel. What did you have in mind for characters to play?

Did another short post just responding to stuff, but my next major post will bring the Inquisitor onboard the ship. I'll wait a day or two to give everyone a chance to do whatever prior to posting the Inquisitor's arrival, so if you want to escape the vessel, now's your chance.
“Sure thing,” Teddy replied with a smirk when Billy mentioned staying with him. He then turned to America. “I agree, we won’t back down from a fight, no matter the odds.”
She listened for a moment to what Billy, Teddy, and Martin had to say, then sighed. “While I appreciate the help, you might want to consider fleeing with everyone else. I’m the one the Beyonder wants. I am at no risk of being seriously harmed in the short term because he wants to use my powers. Can’t very well do that if I’m dead or incapacitated, now can he? He won’t hurt me before he gets what he wants. The same can’t be said for you all. Once I reveal myself as the ‘Cosmic Traveler,’ as he calls me, they will ferry me straight to him.”
“Has it occured to you that he will be a bigger threat to us all if he gets your powers?” Loki inquired, crossing his arms. “Do you even have a plan?”
“I do,” she replied. “He will deactivate all power dampeners in our vicinity when he attempts to either steal my powers or force me to use them for his bidding. And that is when I’ll open a portal straight back to his ‘Beyond-Realm’ and chuck him in.”
“One thing I still don’t understand,” Teddy began, “is why he even needs your powers if he’s already escaped.”
“Look, you guys are running out of time to escape. Enough questions. Just go!” America insisted.
Teddy shook his head. “Sorry, but I’m not leaving you to face this threat alone.”
“Me either,” agreed Loki. “If you mess this up, we’re all bloody fucked, so I’m tagging along as well.”
Just then, they heard the sound of metal footsteps rushing through a nearby corridor, growing rapidly closer…

Terra: "So what you're saying is... blow them all out into space."
Also, is the ship crewed? What would Terra find on the bridge?
No live crew at the moment, just a large team of Sentinels, let's say 20 total. The ship is mostly controlled by an Ultron-based AI system, so the bridge would likely only have a couple of the Sentinels standing guard while the others rush to recapture the Candidates. But when the Inquisitor and his forces teleport aboard, it will be onto the bridge, so Terra might find herself in a sticky situation if she goes there alone.
Oh, and also, the Sentinels onboard will be rushing to the cargo bay to secure the Candidates, and while the Central Power Dampener is offline, their local dampeners are still functional, so characters would do well to either avoid them or try to fight them from a distance, now armed with the knowledge that getting too close will weaken them again. And for context, you should all know these are not normal Sentinels, not just robots that can be easily ripped apart. They have been strengthened by the Beyonder's cosmic energies and have a nanoplasm blood-like substance flowing through tubes inside their bodies that allows them to rapidly repair any damage to their body and even pull themselves back together if they lose any limbs. The key to defeating them - at least temporarily - is to rip off their heads and separate them from the bodies. But that is not without its struggles, even for Terra.
