"I play with guns. I work with a knife."
"You're the boy-wonder-pain-in-my-ass."

I'm aiming for a buddy-cop angle much like the classic one we've come to expect out of this dysfunctional duo from the modern comics. However, in the spirit of this game I've adapted them to the constraints and possibilities of the game. Jason's story is mostly unchanged, I've made some altercations to sew together his Post-Crisis past with his New-52 one. Jason was Robin, got killed by Joker, resurrected in the Lazarus pit and swore his revenge on Joker, Batman and all of Gotham. He was sent to Arkham and spent a good few months killing inmates from the inside, till the crusaders of Gotham stopped him once more. Put into a supermax, Amanda Waller gave him an out and a hefty dose of epxerimental anti-psychotics. Jason is an anti-villain more so than he's a hero.

Roy Harper grew up in Star City with an abusive father and a woman who clung to victimhood. He was a lowlife and got into small-time crime in the Glades, but when prompted with the choice of causing real damage to another human being, Roy chose the path of a hero and stopped his formed friends from mugging the defenseless man. He left Star city as soon as he could, joining the military at the age of 17. He excelled as a marksman and by 20 had broken just about all records the American military had. He worked in Black Ops for a few years but soon got out, instead ending up working directly for Captain America following the battle in 2010. He's become one of Director Rogers star agents and one of the brightest field officers SHIELD has ever produced, even if his methods are unorthodox.

Roy and Jason are tasked with finding the missing Fury, and stop any bad guys they can while doing so. Roy acts like Jason's chaperone, and makes sure the undead Robin doesn't go ballistic yet again.


P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S ):

Their nature is very nomadic, they could go anywhere and do anything, both of them are well established in the DC mythos, even if I've stripped Roy of his heroic past since there's no Green Arrow around. Nestling them into the SHIELD organization I think adds a lot of value to it as a faction, but allows them to do whatever I'd think would be fun. I think I could easily write a driving narrative with the boys, but for now I'd start out with them being roaming characters, nibbling away at their own corner of the universe until the time for interaction comes around.

C H A R A C T E R N O T E S:


Roy likes fighting with a bow and arrow still, even though he's a lot more fond of modern firearms in my iteration than in the comics. Roy's still got his technological know-how and is an engineering prodigy the likes of Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark, if he'd be given the resources and time to apply himself.
Jason is volatile and capable of great spurts of madness, he barely began his training with the All Caste, abandoning Ducra pretty much as soon as he could to get his revenge back home in Gotham. He terrorized the city for a long enough time to make The Red Hood a infamous name across the world.

This is the first I've heard about this, is it easy to find and listen to online? And if so, is it an easy listen, or hours and hours of content like Critical Role?


Sent you the link to the show in the ol' DM's. I like it a lot more than CR. It's quite high energy and with fewer players it becomes a lot easier to follow.
I swore I was out, @Hillan. Don't make me do this.


You had your turn. :*

also, RE: inspiration, @webboysurf's run of Outlaws also counts as inspiration.

So...

Everyone here is playing a character. What's your favourite portrayal of that character? What's your biggest influence?


I'm literally just flying by the seat of my pants with Raven. Outside of the TT-cartoon, I know just about nothing about her. So that'll be interesting. As for Ghost Rider, The Return Of Johnny Blaze is my biggest inspiration, reaching all the way through his 2006 run with titles like Heavens On Fire.

As for the reds, both hood and arrow Vol. 1 Of Outlaws is quite the big one. Comicstorian's DnD Campaign starring RH and Arsenal is also quite big, especially for Roy's idiot-side.

I was going to say @Lord Wraith is also colourblind but I don't think this will support my arguement of not being racist...


There are alleged screenshots, somewhere, somehow.

Allegedly.

Wraith hates Martians.

<Snipped quote by Retired>

Partly colourblind


OK boomer.

Weird way to say 'I'm not Racist but...'

"All that demon blood had to be good for something."

Raven is the spirit of vengeance, brought to the brink of death by her own family, sacrificed to her father Trigon to bring his return to earth, the satanic ritual was ended by the consecration of the site by the holiest of magic - the spirit of vengeance. But not before 16-year old Raven was knocking on death's door. The reaper gave her a choice. End her life as a teenage witch and face judgment for her heretic ways or become the eternal rider of vengeance.

Judging by the flames in her hair, it's not hard to see what choice she made.

P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S ):

I will be playing Raven as a roaming character, going from place to place and putting out (and starting) fires wherever she can. Trying to find a happy medium in mixing her two parts, in something of a 70/30 split between Raven and Ghost Rider. She's the mellow teenage witch we all know and love mixed with the endless hunger for the blood of the guilty. I've got no ambition of playing Johnny Blaze here, so she'll be quite a lot different than the usual shotgun slinging rider of darkness I'd usually dip my toe in for.

As I said, I'll be playing Raven as a roaming character where her key plots will rely on her hunting supernatural threats, and if that's not gonna meld with someone's plot, the wicked, vile, and guilty are also on her shitlist. Mixing the two, I think it becomes very easy to fill a list of targets for the young ghost rideress to logically do battle with.
Raven is a girl who wishes to sit inside her room reading dusty old gothic books till the end of time, but she's chained to a comet of righteous fury. Constantly at odds between her demonic roots and the divine purpose of the spirit of vengeance that rests within her.

Teenage high jinks? I'm in.
Do demons need smiting? She's there.
Do bad people need the fear of god put to 'em? You got it, boss.

CHARACTERS:
THE TITANS: She is a former Titan and would have shared backstory with any other characters who could fit that box if applicable.
CULT OF TRIGON: She used to just call them 'family' but in the years since she was a kid to the years of her apparent death brought on by the family that raised her the cult had become emboldened by the seemingly rise of their master and turned wicked and sinisher. She is still hunting down remnants of the cult to this day, the few have made powerful deals with dark forces to spare their own souls from the wrath of the rider.

Johnny Blaze: Once upon a time, many, many years ago the now retired stuntman used to be a version of the rider.
He fought heaven and hell and managed to defeat both the demon Zarathos and the rogue Archangel Zadkiel. He's lost the power upon defeating Zadkiel. Now, he acts as the closest thing to a mentor Raven has.

Sorcerer Supreme(s): Raven knows of both the Doctors, Fate and Strange but she's never actually met either. They tended to hang out on the opposite side of the magical spectrum to herself. Yet as the avatar of vengence, Raven has realized that it's a matter of time before the keepers of magical order comes asking questions.
