@Bluetommy Accepted BTW.

Anybody else got a CS reworked for this game from the previous roster? @Simple Unicycle, @NecroKnight, @rocketrobie2, etc.?

If this game doesn't make it to an IC/OOC then I'll likely make an original universe superhero RP. With this JLU/DCU RP series being the only thing I've done for the last year, maybe I need to change it up a bit and do something with the Avengers or the X-Men universe...

Ah right, no worries. Still thinking of a character anyways. Would it be possible to use the character of Guy Gardner, but completely reimagine his powers? As in like, the same character, but with nothing to do with the red/green lanterns?

@Chain

Just depends on what's in the CS.

I'm thinking maybe then a Martian Manhunter type? Originally a sleeper agent sent to conquer Earth, but his programming never kicked in because the Martians killed themselves with civil war.

@Dead Cruiser

That has a lot of potential. I'd love to see this.

@NinaDivine Hrmmm... This is really weird alternate history. It's like it's set in the future, but the past is full of nothing. There's not much space that's already taken up, but at the same time there's nothing to build off of.

@Dead Cruiser

I should've posted this earlier but here's what history we have universe wise...

Founding Five Justice Leaguers

Superman - He's the first superhero. The reason it's even called a super-hero. His career seemingly began in the 1970's, however reports indicate he may have been active as far back as WWII. Same basic powers of Superman. He makes everybody in the room wanna stand a little bit taller. A big blue boyscout to this day, he has a line he'll never cross and ALWAYS finds another way. He's pretty much the big gun of the metahuman/alien archetypes. He's only been Clark Kent the last twenty-five years or so of his life on Earth. He obviously ages slower in the universe than past incarnations. Recently killed fighting the monstrous Doomsday. - Deceased

Batman - Same billionaire playboy philanthropist, his career just began in the late 90's and has lasted nearly two decades. He is to the gadgeteers and standard human heroes what Superman is to metas and aliens. The big gun. Basically picture Ben Afleck's Batman here just with more gray hair. Like gray haired Bruce in the veeeery first episode of Batman Beyond. Currently Bruce has a broken back after the fight with Doomsday that will take some time to recover from. - Active Mentor

Green Lantern - Alan Scott is the resident GL, and the ONLY GL in this universe. I'm staying away from the GLC and all the rainbow brigade Corps. His career stretches over the last decade or so and a few years back he absorbed the energies of his magic ring internalizing his power. He's the big gun of the supernatural/magic archetypes. He was based in Gotham and mostly patrolled during the day when Batman wasn't being Batman. Green Lantern retired after finding out his reformed enemy turned fiancée Thorn was pregnant with twins. Moved upstate to Jump City. - Retired/Reserve

Robotman - Cliff Steele was once a racecar driver and adrenaline junkie. He jumped out of planes, served two years in the military, and was even a bouncer on a cruise ship for several months. It was to no surprise to anyone when he finally went too far and crashed an experimental NHRA racing car. His body was near completely destroyed, which is when his friends at STAR Labs Dr. Niles Caulder and Silas Stone put his brain into the body of a machine. Still ever the enthusiast he decided superheroics were in his future and took the alias Robotman [he wasn't very original]. He was a hero of Midway for several years before joining the other founding five in the Justice League. - Active Mentor

Wonder Woman - Princess Diana as well as many other young Amazons lost to the dark skinned Naomi when a contest was held to send a champion out into man's world. Naomi was christened the 'Eagle of the Amazons' but at some point during her early career in WWII she was dubbed Wonder Woman by the papers in Europe. She was one of only a dozen or so active superhumans fighting for the allies before they were shut down by the governments for various reasons. She joined Batman and Superman originally forming a superhero trinity in the early 2000's before also teaming with Robotman and Green Lantern to form the JL. - Active Mentor

Thinking about a re-imagined Guy Gardner for my character. Still mulling this over though.

@Chain

I use Alan Scott as the sole GL in our universe to get away from the OP'ed nature of the ring bearers of the last ten years [Reds, Blues, Greens, etc..]. If you liked his shapeshifting Vuldarian stuff though you could use that version of him...

Here's what I've got for the Character Sheet template. Similar to my last one for DCU, also I didn't use hider tags this time LOL.

Player Name:
Basically this is at the top so I can @ tag you faster

Primary Character:
Who will your primary hero in this be? Remember if you use two characters one of your two characters needs to be either based on a cannon or a reimagined cannon for this universe!

Secret Identity:
Who are you under the mask? If your ID is public it should be noted!

Status:
JLU or Titan?!

Age:
How old are ya, or if you’re an alien or something odd what relative age are you?

City:
For Primaries this will be either Metropolis (JLU) or San Francisco (Titans).

Day Job:
If you’re not a full time hero working with the League [they’re paid by sponsors as well as the government] then what do you do outside of costume? You work at S-Mart or go to school full time?

Powers:
Cannons, originals, doesn’t matter… DON’T GO OVERBOARD.

Weaknesses:
Tell us how to beat your character. Not how to defeat them short term but what attacks can hurt them and affect them like everyone else and possibly kill them.

Skills:
Outside of your powers what can your character do? Good with computers? Know waaaay too much about tv and movies? Good at sneaking around? Know how to fix a car?

Appearance:
What does your hero look like [I’ll try and make micros for anybody who wants them]

BRIEF Bio:
DON’T get long winded.

Supporting Characters:
This is where you’d list anybody of note from your character's more personal supporting cast. For somebody like Superman this would include Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and his boss Perry White.

Secondary Character:
This is simply where you put down who you want as your secondary character be it original, cannon inspired, or reimagined cannon.

Additional Notes:
Anything else you think we should know?

I should go ahead and note ANY universes integrated into the mainstream DCU they've purchased over the years is on the table. Fawcett, Quality, Charlton, and more recently the Milestone and Wildstorm universes all have a multitude of characters that could be reinterpreted and put into our universe.

The Justice League had been active for several years. Their membership included Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman (Naomi), Green Lantern (Alan Scott), and Robot Man. Most of them were already in their 40's, Batman was rumored to be in his 50's. Naomi of Themyscira was ageless as an Amazon. The team took down threats such as Brainiac, the rogue General Eiling, Solomon Grundy and an army of the undead, a Thanagarian Cult, and dozens of others. Days ago the Justice League nearly failed in taking down the monster from the stars called Doomsday. Superman gave his life protecting the city of Metropolis and the world was rocked. Batman also suffered a broken back during the battle with the monstrous creature. Alan Scott (Green Lantern) had already stepped away from the heroics to focus on his family and moved up north to Jump City after the birth of his twins. Several heroes and metahuman allies showed up in Metropolis to help the League defend the city during the battle. Wonder Woman and Robotman opened up the doors of Metro Tower to several of them to form the Justice League Unlimited.

_{The remaining JL founders: Robotman, Batman, and WW (Naomi)}

Not wanting to be part of a League without Batman, the young hero from Gotham called Sideways began his own team out on the west coast called the Titans. He’d used some cash he’d been saving to buy the former ‘Timmy’s Toy Museum’ to convert into a headquarters but it was still a work in progress. The T shaped building still needed a final cleaning, with several decades old toys here and there throughout the structure. Batman would in time fund the team to help them reach their full potential.

With two vastly different teams on opposite sides of the United States, you better believe there are all manner of solo heroes AND VILLAINS in between.

Hey there, what’s up? You must like some form of DC Comics or you wouldn’t be here! Over the last year myself and others have had a ton of awesomeness come out of a series of Justice League Unlimited RPs, and that eventually morphed into DC Unlimited with me breaking one of my usual rules and allowing for multiple characters. We’re relaunching the RP with more of a focus on the different team aspects and now solo characters will only be available as secondary characters. However, this particular RP will differ from the others in that VILLAINS are now also an option, but again only as secondaries. If players want they could also just have a character on both the Titans and the JLU. Or even just use their primary characters outside of the team setting for solo adventures in between stuff that happens with the teams.

As far as the setting for this RP it’s a little sooner in the timeline than we usually start from. We generally began a year after the JLU was formed and months after Superman died. This time we’ll be picking up just ten days after his passing. The JLU is still fresh and based out of Metropolis and Sideways is putting everything he’s got into his own Titans team in San Francisco. The biggest difference in the teams will be age and experience. The Titans will be between the ages of 17-24 and have two years of experience or less. The idea is newer heroes. The League will be between the ages of 20-whatever so long as they have more than two years of experience under their belts. Solo characters and villains are completely up to you. Wanna find a hero to archvillain for in your spare time? Would you rather be a hero taking up shop in a fictional cannon or non-cannon city in the DCU? Crime’s gonna be on the rise in Gotham as well with a broken Batman and no sidekicks in our history to protect the city.

The universe itself is a bit of a reimagining so I’m hoping to see more cannons or reimagined canons than originals, but that’s not to say original characters won’t be accepted as several past players have used originals. Stronger character sheets and RPers in general will help build a stronger foundation for the game and take us places the other games have yet to. I’m still reworking my Character Sheet model but for now any interested parties can chime in with ideas for both Primary Characters [a Titan or League member] and Secondary Characters [solo heroes, additional team players, villains, or your hero’s continued adventures away from the teams].

I’ll be using a reimagined Firestorm in the JLU as a Primary as well as a Secondary character/NPC with Sideways in our universe’s Titans.

Thanks for stopping by!
