All-Star Marvel: Audax Mundus Novus - Season 2

So for the record, me and @natty have already gone over all this and they're totally cool with bringing Hulkling into the fold right away.

All-Star Marvel: Audax Mundus Novus - Season 2

Teddy Altman had a love/hate relationship with gyms and working out. On the one hand Teddy was never one to be hesitant to admit that should he have a chance. He’d be in his place on the helicarrier, drinking sodas, playing Super Smash Bros with some of his SHIELD friends, all trying to come up with God awful puns using character names. “I LINK you need to reevaluate your plan there pal.” “That game was the PIT." That kind of thing. Teddy wouldn’t mind procrastinating working out if he thought he could get away with it. Still once he was there it was never a bad experience. Put on some music from his smart phone and into his headphones. Do some cardio, lift an ungodly sized amount of weights. It always was a good time, especially for the looks he could get. doing so.

Still even as he laid on the weight bench. Hoisting a massive bar holding weights that would normally require multiple people to even put onto said bar, and doing so like it was nothing. Teddy had to admit he was getting kind of bored at the moment. SHIELD haven’t had a lot going on for him to do. Granted he did have his schedule cleared up a bit for the vacation to Disneyworld with his mom. Still it wasn’t normal to have to go out of your way to find things to take care of when you work for a place like SHIELD.

“Will Agent Teddy Altman please report to debriefing room C? Agent Altman to debriefing room C. Thank you.”

Just like that, it was time to work.

As he let the weight bar come back down onto the rack with resounding ‘THUD!’. Teddy reached over and grabbed a towel to wipe his face of the mild sweat that had formed. For the most part he looked normal at the moment. Though a good bit taller than most agents at around 6‘8. He had a frame which although impressive, hid just how freakishly strong he actually was. Still there were flecks of green on his skin visible from under his black gym shorts and SHIELD tanktop. It always happened when he was in his ‘normal’ form as he usually put it, and straining himself on weights. He wasn’t sure if it was something he should be concerned with, but never something he looked into personally.

After showing, and heading back to change out of his gym gear and into his proper SHIELD attire. Teddy was a bit curious what was going to be his assignment. It had been slow for him so it possible they were going to give him something slow to get back into the swing of things with. Which he wasn’t that thrilled with thinking about. He wanted action, he wanted to do his thing. It was partly why he joined SHIELD in the first place. Still opening the door to one of the smaller debriefing rooms Teddy smiled as he saw the legendary Howling Commando himself Dum Dum Dugan. Or as he liked to refer to him as...

“Hey Uncle Dum, what’s up?”

Dugan chuckled softly to himself, it had been Teddy’s nickname for him as long as he knew the agent. Sure it always under minded his tough exterior. But he couldn’t even bring himself to make Teddy stop calling him that.

“One of these days kid you’re going to outgrow calling me that...” Dugan pointed out as he finished his cigar, putting it out in a glass ashtray.

“Hardly.” Teddy told Dugan, flashing his cheeky grin as he gave Dugan a salute, which Dugan returned, before Teddy took his seat.

“Alright so let me cut to the chase Agent Altman. The reason we’ve been keeping you out of action for the last week is we’ve been considering you for what is a pretty substance promotion.” Dugan started, which immediately caught both Teddy’s attention and imagination.

“We’ve started a subset for the Avengers Initiative for younger meta humans. Right now its just known as the ‘Young Avengers Initiative’. So far it’s being headed up by America Chavez, one of the Avengers. However Teddy we believe the group could use a little more SHIELD experience. Experience we believe you can bring while fitting in with the rest of the group’s age range. Now right now we just want to know...” Before Dugan could even finish Teddy was already up out of his chair and leaning his hand down on the small table in front of him.

“Ohmygod YES YES YES YES YES YES YES HOLY CRAP YES!” Teddy’s eyes were beaming. Not only was it a promotion but it was involving the Avengers?! Teddy dreamed of being a superhero and now it was pretty much all but confirmed. Sure it was with a subset of the Avengers, but it wasn’t something Teddy would be insane enough to pass up.

Dugan couldn’t help but chuckle at Agent Altman’s eagerness. The kid had the kind of spunk he wished other agents had. Helped the kid could go undercover and wreck a tank with his bare hands at the same time though. “Alright alright Teddy I thought you’d be interested. Either way if you’re as I’m predicting you are. We’re going to have you assigned co-captain of the squad. Ms. Chavez still has her role with the Avengers so we can’t depend on her to lead the squad all the time. So if she does have other matters we’ll be having the team depend on you. Otherwise we would like you to assist Chavez in leading the squad. We know you’ve absorbed a lot of the knowledge we’ve taught you during SHIELD training. Hopefully you can use that to make sure Chavez grows as a leader.”

Teddy was still beaming as he awkwardly let himself re-seated and situated. It was his dream, real, and he felt like all the hard work had now started to pay off with something awesome. “Sir, with all due respect I promise to fulfill all of that. I’m absolutely honored to be given the chance and I won’t let you or anyone else down!” Teddy remarked almost needing to catch his breath from the good news. He couldn’t wait to tell his mom.

“I know you won’t. Still this also means we’re sending you out for your first assignment with them pretty much immediately.” Turning on the screen behind him Dugan gestured towards the digital picture of a young Hispanic man. “This is one of the people you’ll be working with. Name’s Humberto Lopez. Codename Reptil. He gained his powers to change part of his body into forms of dinosaurs when his parents, who worked for us in our Science division as palaeontologists, took him out to a dig site where he found a rare artifact. This artifact absorbed into him but not before it ended up changing another scientist out in the field. A Dr. Vincent Stegron. Dr. Stegron had been transformed into some kind of mutated dinosaur man figure. Humberto escaped the scene only to return to the scene with his parents and Dr. Stegron missing. Chavez personally had asked us for information pertaining to Dr. Stegron’s location and recently we believe to have found him out in the Savage Lands. While we don’t know if Lopez’s parents are with him the mission is to locate Dr. Stegron and if they are, rescue them and bring them back safely. Any questions?”

Admittedly the mission was to Teddy, putting it mildly, pretty fucked up. Still, one of the first things you learn as a SHIELD agent is that your idea of messed up is going to be trampled on in no time. Its even an inside joke among SHIELD agents when their “broken time” was. That moment that they witnessed so crazy and surreal that completely broke their sense of reality. Still Teddy was already itching to go in, as the mission did sound like one he felt he had to be a part of. His mom was a scientist with SHIELD as well, so he felt for Humberto and wanted to help as best he could. “No sir, has Ms. Chavez been given the news yet about me?” Teddy asked.

“Not yet, we’ve been busy setting the mission up when the superiors gave the call for you to be brought into the program. Though we believe she should be fine given with the decision knowing the circumstances. Now unless you need to know anything else, we need you to report to training room D where the others are.” Dugan reached into a nearby small podium which he pulled out of a folder he slide across the table to Teddy. “This contains information on not only Chavez but Lopez and also a Kate Bishop who is also on the team. Go ahead and read up on them on your way over.”

Teddy gave Dugan the nod that showed he understood. Standing up with the two of them saluting one another before Teddy started to leave the debriefing room. “Oh and Agent Altman?” Dugan asked, leaving Teddy to pause at the door. “Hopefully you can give them a sample of what you’re capable of. They should know we’re giving them a very high quality teammate with some capable abilities.” Dugan told him with a smile.

“Sure thing Uncle Dum.” Teddy couldn’t help but grin again.

“Get the Hell out of here Agent before I personally retract the offer...” Dugan frustratedly told Teddy but trying to hold back a laugh.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Letting himself transform into what he jokingly called ‘work’ mode. Teddy Altman arrived to the observation area of the training room. Slightly taller at just under seven feet tall, more muscular. Most notably though with a green complexion all over, sharp clawed hands, what seemed like padded shoulders with multiple layers to them. Most of all large dragon like wings which he kept tucked in against his back.

“Uh hello? Sorry if I’m interrupting but I’m here to uh...” Teddy wasn’t exactly sure how to introduce himself. Since at the moment he looked like a monsterous seven foot green machine that most likely sounded like a babbling idiot. “I’m here reporting for the group. SHIELD is having me join your squadron acting as co-leader alongside Ms. Chavez. Sorry for the short notice, but I have been breached on the situation.” Teddy noted waving the manilla folder he had been reading on the way over. “So Mr. Lopez let me go ahead and say with my mom also working with SHIELD I’m more than ready and willing for this.” He assured Humberto. His tone making it clear he understood the ramifications.

There was a brief awkward pause before Teddy piped in again. "Uh oh also this is just to kind of show you guys what I can do since um... oh hold on...” Suddenly Teddy began to change out of the green form he was in and back into his human looking self. “This whole like... transforming... thing?” Teddy wasn’t sure at all how to phrase it. Shrugging awkwardly as he finished speaking. “Anyways, sorry... uh as you were saying America.”

All-Star Marvel: Audax Mundus Novus - Season 2

Player Name: Drewvonawesome

Character You Wish To Play: Theodore “Teddy" Altman

Alias: Hulkling

Moral Alignment: Good

Affiliation: SHIELD, Young Avengers

Character Origin & Backstory: For as long as Teddy could remember, he had always lived and knew about SHIELD. He never really knew his father, his mother when pressed on the subject always told him he was a great man. However he was a great man who couldn't be there because of difficult circumstances. Still because of Teddy's mom working a high profile job in SHIELD's research department. Her work was mostly in otherworldly species, either ones discovered by astronomical projects or suspected to be living on Earth. Because of her work mostly involving working on the main helicarrier meant Teddy mostly spent his early years on the ship. He was well liked by personal, Dum Dum Dugan even lets Teddy refer to him as ‘Uncle Dum'. Teddy had a few friends on the ship his age, but considering the dangers associated with living on the helicarrier not many on board were willing to let their kids live there. Thus Teddy's friends growing up were few and far between.

As Teddy grew up he knew he wanted to be a part of SHIELD himself and actually serve himself. His mom was encouraging about it, but those who knew her knew how worried she was about the possibility. Not just because of the dangers, but she admitted she was worried ‘certain people' were out there looking for him. Though she kept all that from Teddy, not at all sure how to talk to him about it. Teddy though had his own doubts about making it in SHIELD. He was to put it lightly, fairly skinny and not well built as he went through puberty. That all changed when one night he went to bed a normal, scrawny kid. Waking up to be a green muscular monster.

Though freaked out at first, Teddy quickly realized that these powers of his, where ever they came from. Made him more than capable of excelling in SHIELD. He got through all the training and became an agent in record time. All the while his mother was concerned, but outwardly very encouraging for him. Teddy's abilities and his personality have given him duel roles when sent out on assignments. His powers allow him to handle high end missions even given his inexperience. His warm personality and ability to shapeshift into a normal person giving him peacekeeping assignments. Its busy work, but Teddy takes it all in stride, very much happy being a SHIELD agent.

That same personality has made him a hit with a lot of people in SHIELD. His approachable, a bit on the goofy side, and very much a nerd with an affinity for superheroes either real or in comic book.

Season 1 Summary: Mostly was out handling odds and ends for SHIELD, also him and his mom took a trip to Disneyworld. It was awesome!

Powers and Abilities: Teddy's main ability comes from being able to shapeshift. While he has his ‘normal' appearance, with his blond hair, and fit 6'2 frame. Teddy typically transforms into a 6‘8 green half human, half alien looking form. With scales on his shoulders, clawed hands, and dragon like wings that sprout out of his back. Outside of that though Teddy can change into other people, but he cannot replicate their powers if they have any. His powers can also protect him at a subconscious level from any vital organs getting shot or pierced, and heal faster than normal. On top of that, Teddy has superhuman strength. His current limits being a vertical press of around 10 tons.

Sample Story Arcs: When the Young Avengers program begins naturally Hulkling is among the first considered for it. Which he happily accepts, seeing how he can become a full pledge superhero by doing so.

Comfortably open in his homosexuality, Teddy in his works ends up meeting a mysterious magical using young man. Despite said young man's annoying speedster twin brother, the sparks fly between the two.

Finally learning the truth about his powers, and his family's history. Starts a dangerous and very hostile situation for all those around Teddy.

All-Star Marvel: Audax Mundus Novus - Season 2

@Dedonus Hey, since you are Spidey and all.

Is it okay if I make a Venom CS.

@Chaotic Chao

Also dude what about Wiccan? And more to the original point what we were talking about with Gambit and Black Panther?

Justice League: Legacy

Well so much for me doing something like Zatanna or doing Zatanna herself...thanks Drew...

Well back to the drawing board. Going to need to think of who I want to create now

@FantasyChic

Aw crap I'm sorry, I totally didn't see you saying you wanted Zatanna....

Justice League: Legacy

Name:

Zachary Zatara

Nicknames:

‘that fucking asshole'

Alias:

The Great Zatara

Age:

21

Sex:

Male

Sexuality:

Straight

Appearance:

Backstory:

The cousin of fellow world famous magician Zatanna and nephew of the late legendary Zatara. Zachary was shown to be capable of homo-magi powers much like them. Interesting since neither of his parents were capable. So Zatanna and Zatara both trained Zachary in the magic arts. Zachary was able to show a lot of promise even early on. Earning plenty of talent show awards as he went through school.

However unlike his cousin and uncle, Zachary had a thirst for attention that couldn't be quenched. He was the middle child of a family of three and didn't hide his disdain for it. The attention his magic brought to him went to his head. His ego grew with each achievement and soon Zachary became a difficult person to be around, to put it nicely. Especially as soon Zachary was able to start touring the US, and later the world in between going to high school.

However his life became difficult when Zachary found out his uncle was killed when a seance he performed went horribly wrong. Zachary and Zatanna, who he hadn't talked too for a few years to that point, and the two performed their own seance to see him one last time. The spirit of Zatara spoke very kindly to Zatanna about continuing the family legacy. When Zachary got angry and asked why he wasn't being thanked. Zatara told him bluntly that he was embarrassed by Zachary's diva like behavior. As Zatara's spirit faded back to the afterlife, Zachary found himself finally having to emotionally look in the mirror for the first time ever. Around this time the seven individuals of the Justice League vanished under mysterious circumstances. Zachary decided the time for being at least mildly decent began there.

Motivation for joining the League?:

"I'm just trying to do what I felt like was the right thing... I mean it is good for my career too really. But mostly right thing to do and all that."

What do you bring to the League?:

"Well if the seven vanished under magical circumstances I'm sure I'll be a big help there. Otherwise I can probably beat anyone with both hands tied behind my back and without a sweat. Because I am that awesome. Boom, mic drop."

Notes

For this RP I'm going to go ahead and give him full homo-magi powers, unlike in the comics where he can't perform any spells that involve himself or a person or animal of a certain size. Personality wise his trying to not be such a prick, but even he can't guarantee that it'll be easy.

Justice League: Legacy

Okay here's what I'm considering as my options...

Someone who has both the Atom and Atom Smasher powers, possibly a student of Ray Palmer?

Zachary Zatara

Offspring, son of Plastic Man

Superboy Conner Kent (More of a longshot though...)

I'm still trying to figure out other possibilities...

Justice League: Legacy

I'm going to need to figure out what character I'm going to do.

<Snipped quote by Rin>

That's pretty risky.

What about a triple dare

@Hillan

No you dope you're suppose to take the physical challenge! THE PHYSICAL CHALLENGE!

Young Justice and Young Avengers: Worlds Collide

If this thing is still alive, I'd be up to grab Damian Wayne (best robin)

@SuddenSardines

It is and while I adore Damian the correct answer to the best Robin is always the original Dick Grayson.

Justice League: Legacy

@Lord Wraith Mate, you can have any Dick you like.

@BlackSam3091

Copy, paste, and put it in my sig... Thanks Sam!
