Bio


You JUST scrolled down!


Hello out there! My name's Mason. I like a lot of random stuff like comics, Masters of the Universe, M*A*S*H, X-Files, conspiracy theories, as well as a good superhero themed role play! I'm more of a DC freak than a Marvel zombie but I did grow up on mutants and 3rd string heroes. Once in awhile I'll make a few micros in MSPaint for my RP's because I love designing heroes as much as I do writing/reading about them. I'm about to try and get another Amalgam Universe themed game off the ground, if you're interested gimme a shout!



My top RP's on the Guild:

Young Justice 2020
Justice League Unlimited
Titans of Gotham
Champions of Engine City
Marvel Reborn
Legion of Superheroes Return [stat based]


Top Characters:

Ditto - Young Justice series
Bulleteer - Justice League Unlimited
Leviathan - Titans of Gotham
Fastlane - Champions of Engine City
the Thing II - Marvel Reborn
Ultra Boy II - Legion of Superheroes Return


I've been RP'ing for awhile. I mostly RP to keep my writing skills up to par, and I generally RP between Casual and Advanced. I've been a member of the guild for quite a bit, pre Guildfall even. Ninety percent of the time you'll find me in some superhero themed RP or something based off of another fandom like MotU or Power Rangers. Currently in the process of developing my own comics!

Favorite DC heroes (I won't go into villains to save space) in no order: Aquaman, Hawkman, Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner), Superboy (the clone), Swamp Thing, Starman, Animal Man, the Ray (90's era), Impulse, Captain Atom, and Batman Beyond.

Favorite Marvel heroes list: Human Torch I & II, Capt. Mar-Vell, Black Bolt, the classic Destroyer, Havok, Multiple Man, classic Scarlet Spider, Spiderman 2099, Nova, and Colossus.

OTHER FAVORITES: Space Ghost, Haunt, the Maxx, Shadowhawk, Green Hornet, Madman, Doctor Star/Andromeda, the Phantom, He-Man, and Zorro.

Season 2 - E P I S O D E 3:
Monitor Duty / West Side Showdown

M E T R O P O L I S:

October 29th, 2018 - 1:30 pm | Justice League Headquarters - Metro Tower


Mentor: Wildcat

Cast: @Weird Tales Clutch, @Archangel89 'Kid' Flash, @Holy Soldier Red Star


It had only been an hour since the two newest members of the League had began their first shift of Monitor Duty without a mentor at HQ. 'Kid' Flash and Red Star still had a lot to prove. The monitor room looked out over the lobby of the Tower, and had several holo-screens and computer tech in a large circled area. The 'room' was almost like a tower in itself connected to one of the upper floors in the HQ and having no overhead ceiling. Wildcat was the last mentor on duty, but went into the field with Fire when something came up at the end of his Monitor Duty shift. Icicle had shown up in Star City on the west coast, and had a Smoak Technologies department frozen in as hostages after a botched robbery.

S T A R C I T Y:

October 29th, 2018 - 11:30 am | Downtown - Smoak Technologies Building


Within an hour of teleporting to Star City the heroes had managed to make it to the upper floors of the tech building. What Wildcat and Fire hadn't expected was Brainwave being on the scene hidden a few floors below and controlling the rest of the Smoak employees. Their com-links were disrupted by Brainwave's mental powers, but would the newbie heroes on Monitor Duty realize what's going on and send help before it's too late?

"These people are under some kinda control!" shouted the grizzled elder hero, Wildcat.

"We haven't checked back in with HQ in awhile now, surely the boys will know something isn't right..?" Fire questioned.

@Nightwing95 Just know that I'm using Star City, Smoak Technologies, and Icicle in the new Ep. 3 - Monitor Duty. Your hero could actually come in at the end of that Ep if you'd like to make an impression. Speaking of...

@Weird Tales, @Archangel89, @Holy Soldier... It ( Ep 3 ) is about to be posted. Right now I'm just getting the header format added in. Gives everyone an hour in-game for hijinks, had Clutch making a public appearance. One of you along with Clutch can be sent to Star City for the assist but you have to decide yourselves.

@HushedWhispers That'd be great. Just don't get too convoluted with the backstory, let her stand on her own.

-00492
@HushedWhispers Just one character per player. Too many players to give folks multiple characters. Could always use more females, but I've been hoping somebody would take an archer...

-00492
@Nightwing95 Atom Smasher/Nuklon, the Atom, Black Canary, Green or Red Arrow, Blue Devil, Booster Gold, Crimson Fox, Cyborg, Katana, Mark Antaeus, Mr. Terrific, Obsidian (just unrelated to Alan Scott), Plastic Man, Human Bomb, Phantom Lady or a timelost Phantom Girl maybe, Red Tornado, Rocket Red, Black Condor, Shining Knight, or Zatanna. That's my SHORT list lol... of course you could gender swap them, remake their secret ID's entirely, etc. My Starman is like a mix of Starboy from the Legion of Superheroes and the film version of Marvel's Starlord.

@HushedWhispers Yeah there's always room! What sorta character you have in mind?

-00492
@Nightwing95 They'd have to be from the not so distant future cause they're just now being born. They're the reason he's retired in this universe now...

@Member 00492 Hey there. Any chance for new player to join Season 2?


Yeah man there's always room. Just know we're working with an alternate version of the DCU so not everything is like the comics. All the important stuff to ote should be in he opening posts of the different tabs.

Anybody else? I'll try and get a CS template up by this weekend!

EDIT: Looks like this one's dead in the water... oh well :(

-00492
@Holy Soldier I'm gonna get on this before this weekend. Sorry it's taking me so long, been working longer hours and I pass out pretty much during or right after dinner...

But yeah, haven't forgot about you guys.

NOTE: This RP is inspired by the concepts intro'ed in the anime Tiger & Bunny.


In the year 2020 superhumans in the more populated areas of the world were becoming common. Some would be outcasts, others criminals, while others went to school to help society with their abilities. Two years ago Netflix and Hulu co-produced what would become a world wide phenomenon on streaming services as well as news outlets. HERO Tv showed several superpowered individuals using their powers to stop superhuman criminals in tandem with law enforcement and other local authorities. Competitors would gain more fame when big corporations wanted to sponsor the heroes' adventures and appearances. Merchandising went through the roof with toys, video games, etc.

The premise of the show would see the heroes gain points for every good deed.

Make a public appearance: 25 pts.
Save a civilian: 50 pts.
Assist other heroes and the authorities: 100 pts.
Make an arrest: 250 pts.
Arrest a superhuman badguy: 500 pts.
Save more than 10 civilians: 1000 pts.
Save more than 20 civilians: 2000 pts.

The reality tv series is based out of New York and sees the heroes compete for the title of King (or Queen) of Heroes for that season. They would be given a training facility paid for by their sponsors in season 2 and season 3 is shaping up. This year Hero Tv is only letting in the top heroes and not just those who attended the schools for superhumans. The drone cameras get everything in the field from public appearances like reading books to elementary school kids and volunteering at homeless shelters, to just riding or flying round town on patrol. The crime rate in NYC has been gradually falling ever since Hero Tv went live on streaming services around the world.

However behind the scenes, everyone would be left in the dark at how the directors approached the material and how they began to cast the last two seasons. The corporations who sponsored the heroes, and the billionaires that would purchase Netflix, Hulu, as well as ESPN had much darker secrets. And what would shock the world and the group of heroes this year? An anti-hero killing violent criminals as well as destroying any Hero Tv drones was on the loose and wanted by the authorities. In a strange twist of circumstances the general public approved of the anti-hero who boasted "people shouldn't be heroes to sell merchandise.."

What eight heroes will be seen this season? Will all of their ID's be secret and constantly concealed by masks on camera? Who's ID's will be public? Do any of the heroes happen to be millionaires and sponsor themselves? Who's freelance and without a sponsor?

For this RP I'll be looking for up to 10 players. This will include the 8 heroes featured on Hero Tv, as well as 1 anti-hero who isn't affiliated with Hero Tv (but they do get the superhuman on camera when they can to boost ratings), and a former King or Queen of Hero Tv as the new Hero Tv Daytime News anchor who will put their own voice and color commentary into the mix when it goes live on streaming services everywhere.

Things to note:


* Most heroes only have one power, though some may have a few different applications for this power.

* Heroes with tech sponsors may be outfitted with advanced exo suits to slightly increase their speed and strength, or give them basic abilities such as flight, or even a small arsenal like grappling guns, advanced melee weaponry, etc.

* Some heroes will obviously outshine others in certain areas of heroism, but that's just part of the on camera drama.

* This new season is going to be uncharted territory with several of the heroes living in the training facility, however some will have private lives away from the cameras and only the sponsors know their real names. This will be something like the MTV's 'Real World' meets 'Who Wants to Be A Superhero'.

* Freelance heroes are just that, without a sponsor. They are more careful and avoid collateral damage, because if they cause too much damage they can get kicked from the season and replaced.

* Heroes generally make $45,000 a year from Hero Tv, what they make from their sponsors and merchandising deals is between them and their sponsors and whoever gets the rights to make the merchandise.

* Once I get a feel for the cast I'll know what sort of arc I want to roll with the over arching story. Everyone will have their own individual stories and moments, and you can even make posts without your heroes being on camera. As far as enemies, who the big bad will be in the season, and the tone of the RP... that's still in developement.
