@Forsythe No worries! I'm not a Pym family expert either lol. The Pym family lore pretty much matches the MCU, with the exception that we restored Pym as Ultron's creator. So Pym has a kid, Hope, and she's in a relationship with Scott Lang who has a daughter, Cassie (Cassie will be an NPC in AA). So if anything, she has something akin to a niece. Janet is around, was rescued from the quantum realm. We did a soft redo of his motivations for making Ultron, where in the lore, he makes Ultron to try to make something that could travel to the quantum realm and retrieve Janet (+ some other PCs who had gotten trapped there).

TLDR - Pym has his MCU family, he made Ultron to rescue Janet from the Quantum Realm and it backfired on him.

EDIT - He also basically made Vision in this reality as well, since the Age of Ultron was done with the time travel nonsense following comics lore rather than movie lore. So Vision would be a sibling.
@Forsythe Looked at this quickly, and I think the main sticking point here does come down to the Stark Family connection. I think with the conceit that she's a better Ultron, that she was a robot made by a famous genius, that she'd be better suited for the Pyms. (We follow the comics lore more closely here with Ultron, having him be made by Henry Pym). (Another note on the Stark thing - we have a pre-existing character in this RP'verse who is Tony's kid, so by this RP Tony has grandchildren, so I think the lone legacy of Stark I don't think would work as effectively for Antonia as it might have otherwise).

For the faceclaim - if you can only find one image you like that's good enough! Can even be a drawing.
@Martian I think for me, it feels somewhat like two different concepts? Like, I think the dire wraith changeling idea is cool, but I don't see the reason why that kid should be adopted by Kyle and JP. (So sorry this is being a bit pedantic) - I think if you want a kid of Kyle and JP, then they can be a mutant - or if you want the dire wraith or the demigod, then they shouldn't have Kyle + JP as parents.

@PatientBean Cool, we're excited to have you!

@Nallore Will look them over after work!
@PatientBean No worries fam! :) If it sways your opinion at all, this RP is going to be more school centric than Blue's X-Men RP. The characters are teenagers here, whereas in X-Men they're in their 20s. The X-Men also are more established superheroes and have fought some huge villains, whereas these kids are brand new.

@Forsythe Hey there! You basically don't need to know any lore - anything that is important will be explained in one of my IC posts. The basic vibe of the setting for this RP is that we're in the near future, there's now tons of schools for superheroes, and the Avengers have gone global. Anything more specific than that, you honestly don't need to know. Canon MCU stuff should be enough to get you by, and I'll let you know if anything needs a tweak!

I'm fine with you doing a robot sort of character! :)

@Martian Oh I love Northstar! He and Kyle just adopted a kid in the comics together too, it was very sweet. I chatted with my co-GM and we like the concept, but think that it could be simplified - i.e., either he's the adopted kid of Northstar & Kyle and he has powers, or he is a demigod kid of a god.


@Martian would be chuffed to have you! I can give you discord access to the discord server if you’d like now, so you can ask questions & whatnot

@Nallore no rush! I’m anticipating the first post of the IC to go up mid to late January
Hey everyone, the latest RP in Blue and Morose's superhero universe is here! Please let us know if you are interested, either by posting below or in the OOC here!







Overview

Location: Avengers Academy - Los Angeles, California
Time Frame: September 13, 2038 [Monday]
Rp Tags: Bildungsroman, Queer, Coming of Age, Action, Romance, Self Discovery, Adventure, Near Future, Superhero, Supernatural, School, Team Centric, Teenage
Type Of RP: A coming-of-age roleplay about the next generation of superheroes; connected to Skyrose Multiverse RPs such as Agents of SHIELD, The Gifted, and X-Men.
Goal of the RP: Win the Contest of Champions and unseat the Young Avengers
Character Requirements: Age 13-18


Premise

There was an idea [...] to bring together a group of remarkable people to see if they could become something more. To see if they could work together when we needed them to, to fight the battles that we never could
Former Director of SHIELD, Nick Fury

The Avengers are Earth's Mightiest Heroes, a group of incredible individuals with unique powers and gifts that allow them to fight the battles ordinary humans cannot. They protect the Earth from threats both internal and external, acting as our first and often final line of defense. But Avengers are not forever - they grow old, they die, they fall in love, they retire, they disappear. To secure the future of the world, we need to train the next generation of heroes - the new Avengers.

To this end, the Avengers have founded the Margaret Carter Institute, known to the public as Avengers Academy. There, students with special gifts are trained to become the next generation of superheroes, learning how to function together as a team to accomplish what no one person can do alone. But Avengers Academy isn't the only school for super heroics, competing for students with the Jean Grey School, Strange Academy, and Braddock Academy among others. Each year, schools from across the globe send their best and brightest students to participate in the Contest of Champions. The first prize is one million dollars and the top superhero teams tend to recruit from the contest winners. For the last two years, the Young Avengers of Avengers Academy have won the tournament, donating the majority of their winnings to charity.

But this year, things may be different. Excelsior, another Avengers Academy team, have assembled with the goal of winning the tournament. All they need to do is pass the qualifying round and then they'll be entered into the tournament, held at the Future Foundation Arena, where they will fight the best young superhero teams from across the world.

When Excelsior is approached by a young inventor who promises to help train them in the weaknesses of their opponents, is it too good to be true? Can they trust Edward Acra? They're just students - what could possibly go wrong, right?

Characters
L indicates they are a legacy of a character previously in this universe

Accepted:
NPCs:
  • Ser Nemo, Time Travel Studies Teacher & Coach for Team Excelsior
  • Headmaster Phil Coulson, former Agent of SHIELD





Our World

In this RP, we consider the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies up to and including the first Avengers film to be cannon. There are roleplays that have happened in this timeline as well, forming our own Roleplay Universe (please click here to see the full in depth lore guide for our multiverse).

Below are stats on some superhero academies and superhero teams - obviously, this list is not exhaustive. Come 2038, there are tons of teams and schools all across the globe. The ones that I've listed here are ones that have been established in the comics; but please do imagine that there are many more, definitely outside of the US.


As this is a school setting, you will have classes that your characters attend. The school works on an alternating day schedule, where half of the week students focus on superheroics (i.e., classes on how to use their powers, strategy, teamwork, alien languages, how to triage survivors, and so forth), and the other half of the week students focus on traditional education (i.e., math, science, literature, theater, and so forth).

There are no general education requirements at the Margaret Carter Institute beginning at the high school level. The high school entrance exam assesses students in a variety of subjects, ensuring that the basics are mastered, before students go onto specialty education. The Academy operates on a quarter system, and some classes do have pre-reqs, which can be met by either taking further placement exams or taking classes at the Academy.

In your CS submission, put down your thoughts/ideas for a suggested course load. The GM will then contact you with your official classes shortly before the start of the game, so that way people will have classes in common.

Lastly, by popular demand, we will have uniforms at the academy! The uniforms are basically a rip-off of the Umbrella Academy uniform, only with a stylized Avengers A rather than the umbrella on the crest. The color of the uniform's trim will match what dorm your character has been assigned to (each dorm will have a faculty member in charge, who acts as your guardian while at school). Students are required to wear their uniforms Monday through Thursday, with Fridays being free dress days.

Rules
*Rules are enforced and you will be removed if you break them.
  • Applications:
    • Post the CS in the OOC for review.
    • Change the color code to a unique one (i.e. not in use by a current character). Please try to avoid colors that are very similar to the eye as well.
    • Choose a faceclaim for your character that is not currently in use - if you're not sure if someone is using that FC, ask the GM.
    • The GM can refuse a concept for any reason, yet will generally work with you to fix up the character until they can be accepted.
    • Talk to the GM if you want your character to have established connections (i.e. if this were a Percy Jackson RP and you wanted to be Percy's goddaughter, talk to the GM in advance for approval).
    • GM approved character sheets should be posted in a hider in the Char tab.
    • The GM will check posting history / previous RPs - you've been warned.
    • Once CS's are approved, relation sheet will go up and must be completed and added to CS
    • Under Extras in your CS please post a link to a post you have done in the past to show you have read the rules. If You submit a CS without this it may be declined.
    • Special - To New Comers To The Guild - Pm The Gm for a tid bit to add under extras instead
  • Post Content
    • No use of racial slurs in posts. Sure, you may be playing a racist white guy from the 1950s, so just use asterisks - you'll convey the same idea.
    • Nudity needs to be run by the GM before posting. In general, this is PG-13 when it comes to romance, sexual interactions, exposure, and so forth... Violence wise, anything goes. This can get gross.
    • Fade to black for things that verge into the area of smut/other taboo subjects. Seriously. Your post will be deleted otherwise.
    • The world and NPCs and events are controlled by the GM. If the GM says it's raining, then it's raining. Results will be randomized per dice mechanics.
  • Posting & General Behavior
    • Follow all of the rules of the forum - they're the law of the land.
    • If you need an extension or you're struggling - or even if you just aren't certain what to do - please reach out to the GM! Communication is key.
    • All posts are backed up on the back up forum after they have been posted - the GM will provide the link for this forum. It only takes a few seconds and it ensures all your hard work is preserved!
    • You must post once every 7 days - once your last post on RPG reads as 8 days ago you will be removed from the RP.
    • If you need an extension, ask!! If an emergency comes up on day 7, of course come and talk to us - we'll be more than happy to work something out. It's very rare that an extension request is denied.
    • You may NOT copy and paste something from someone else's post and add it to your own. This includes dialogue.
    • Minimal 2 posts between your last
    • No editing posts without GM approval.
    • Each post should include two well developed paragraphs (please don't make me define how many sentences are in a paragraph. If they're long sentences, then sure 5 is fine - if they're shorter, maybe 15 is best).
    • Read all posts! Seriously, people are reading yours so spread the love and read theirs!
    • No tagging for interactions in your post - people use this as a crutch usually to get away with not reading everything.
  • Other:
    • Character deaths will happen, no one is safe - it will be randomized and you will be notified when your death approaches. (This does not mean you are out of the RP, it will mean however you need to make a new character should you wish to continue.)
    • The GM reserves the right to make decisions as to how much additional time, if any, will be granted to post if the forum is glitching. A week to post is plenty of time even if the forum glitches a day or two. But usually, I do tend to be pretty generous about it...
    • Rules and character sheet will be added to and changed as need be depending on problems or points that come up.
    • Under Extras in the CS also mention your favorite Marvel TEEN character so I know you at least skimmed this...
    • Check the discord chat every few days. Invite will be provided by the GM.


Character and Relations Sheets

Please read through the instructions for this character sheet carefully. There are some sections that have special instructions and will depend on the type of character you are making.


You will record your thoughts and opinions on other characters. There are no PC relationship requirements to begin with, however it is likely that some of your characters grew up seeing each other fairly often and/or that they've been classmates at the Academy for a while.

If you are playing a legacy, you are required to include a relation for their parent/relative - (i.e., if Guin Stark were in this RP, she would need to have a relation section for Tony).

☀️ Nancy Parker ☀️

Location: Train
Skills: N/A

Nancy wasn't concerned about Joanie playing too rough with the DemiCat, but if Demetri did anything to hurt Joanie, she'd skin him alive - no matter what form he was shifted into. Nancy didn't pay much attention to the strange looks they were being given either, figuring that the Mist would take care of things. What she did listen to was her brother's words, as he explained what had happened. As much as the Romans tended to look down on the Greeks, Camp Jupiter had been no stranger to drama either.

"Mm, the reason that this group cannot communicate is that you're fractured and undisciplined - and I don't mean you specifically," Nancy told Zeke. "Having both of those things be true is the nightmare scenario. Having only one be true, you can work with that." But she knew that wasn't really what Zeke wanted to talk about - it was more the second thing, his feelings of regret, shame, and anger - an Apollo classic.

Demetri already gave the standard, mushy advice. Maybe Nancy would've told Zeke something more warm and feely, had Demetri not been present. Instead, she said: "Have you ever heard the idea that there are no good people or bad people, and that each moment, you have to choose to do good or do bad? I think that's true for lots of things. You haven't turned yourself into anything. You did things. And you can pick to do other things," Nancy paused. "You and I, we can be reborn each day - just like the sun."

🌈 Leda Storm 🌈

Location: Under the Sea
Skills: N/A

Leda smiled at Hercules - she was glad that he was happy. Kristin, Zeke, and her had accidentally disrupted his life pretty majorly on their quest. She didn't consider herself a huge fan of monsters, but not all cyclopses were bad (some of them were in the X-Men comics, after all). "Ya make anything cool? Like a tricked out trident or something? Or a brand new Alexa?" Leda asked him. She shrugged, smiling slightly coyly as Hercules returned the question to her. "Oh, I've been gran'. Got a new girl, as you can see. Been eating out plenty," she finished with a wink, "camp food never quite does it for me."

Her attention though was rapidly pulled over towards Sera, as Sera innocently and sweetly asked if there was a siren near them. She didn't know how she hadn't seen it sooner, but there it was - an absolutely gorgeous woman, singing an intoxicating song at the bottom of the sea. Leda hooked her feet into the sides of the hippocampus in order to hold on, and she plugged her ears with her fingers. "Plug your ears, or you'll be her lunch!" she warned the others.
