Post #1.13: Finale

Everything was a blur. All of Cyborg’s systems were back online thanks to the quick work of Accelerate and not a moment too soon. One of the rookie heroes was falling from the sky back through the hole in the ceiling lit up like a bomb. Unknown to most her power was amplified by Sacrifice. Accelerate was mid-air on a collision course with the girl with a power dampening collar the magnetic monster had retooled for himself as a counter measure days earlier. What could the cybernetic superhero do? In seconds his mind calculated several outcomes and it was obvious.

“Roy, is the War Room ready?” asked Vic aiming his arm cannon at the falling heroes.

“Still needs a couple minor things but yeah, why..?” asked Roy Harper from seemingly a com device built into Cyborg.

“Get ready for a potential bomb.” Cyborg stated creating a Boom Tube beneath Accelerate and Shattercrash after the speedster snapped the collar on the bright haired girl.

Back at the Academy, in what was to be the underground training facility, Shattercrash and Accelerate hit the ground with a thud rather than a bang. They both looked up to see an unimpressed Arsenal.

"That's gonna leave a bruise. But hey... We're not dead in a fiery explosion. That's above expectation." Accelerate cursed under his breath, coughing and holding his ribs.

“Yeah, this team needs a lot of work…” Arsenal said looking down at the young heroes.

STAR Labs….

“What in the hell, Cyborg?! That was our only shot at taking this guy down!” screamed Switchblade as things were still sideways and shrapnel flew in all directions.

The lab was a complete wreck at this point. More of the ceiling had caved, several walls were destroyed, and heroes were scattered everywhere while the EMS crews outside tended to the scientists and visitors who were in the building when Polaris erupted. Flamebird was still throwing the occasional fireball, and Oracle was invisible somewhere. After taking a swipe at Polaris, Blitzkrieg was pinned to the floor with heavy pieces of steel from the foundation of the building.

“WE CAN STILL HELP YOU EMERSON! WE KNOW YOU’RE IN THERE!” Cyborg screamed as the mad scientist let his guard down momentarily and touched down on the floor.

“I could rip you apart again, limb from limb. Emerson no longer exists. I am…” Polaris began stating before Switchblade came in with a needle he turned into a solid steel spear getting the metahuman madman in the shoulder.

“Gonna feel THAT in the morning!” Switchblade screamed as the debris holding down Blitz became less heavy, and all of the floating debris fell to the ground.

The team began to rally together and for a few moments Polaris panicked. He almost lost control. He feverishly looked back and forth, and questioned his chances now with an injured arm that was bleeding out. He was in shock but he quickly snapped back into his insanity.

“You Titans aren’t worth my time. I’ll see you again, Cyborg…” Polaris said floating out of the destroyed ceiling after throwing Switchblade into Cyborg.

	Later, at the Academy… Several of the students had gone straight to the Med Bay to get checked out by the medical staff. Others questioned where their teammates had gone when Cyborg created a Boom Tube. “I was going to keep it a surprise until next week, but we needed some place that could withstand a human bomb.” Cyborg began to say with a few young heroes around the lobby area on the top floor of the Academy where all of their personal quarters were located as well as the main elevator. “We brought on somebody to help you guys in combat training, and an underground training Colosseum of sorts has been built about half a mile below the Academy.” Cyborg continued as Arsenal walked out of the elevator casually. “Where’s Shattercrash and the speedster?” Cyborg asked. “I told them if they helped me finish the odds and ends they could help me calibrate the settings and holo-droids and try the War Room. I think they’re on their third or fourth battle simulation…” the red and black clad hero responded. “We’re going to need to call Wally…” Cyborg began. “I already gave him the heads up. I think the news reported him on the scene helping with the rebuilding of STAR Labs about twenty minutes ago. Mister Terrific is there too with a few dozen of those T Spheres. I thought you were always connected to the internet and breaking news, Vic?” Arsenal, aka Roy Harper asked. “Probably need to jack into the system in my room and reset a few things. Probably a few extra firewalls still up… maybe I should get me a few of those T Spheres…” Cyborg laughed heading to the elevator.	..................................................... ...

The Justice Society

@Omega ManSo, no original speedsters, that sounds like?

@BenG85

They would just need to be tied to the Quick legacy or Jay Garrick. They couldn't be 'the Flash' proper, that's all.

EDIT: As of now there's five accepted character sheets and a few interested parties but not other sheets. Still need another player or two with completed sheets before we can move this one any further...

The Justice Society

@BenG85The only connection to the Speed Force I'm willing to accept would be either Johnny or Jesse Quick, as the Flash himself is off limits. Can't remember what the superspeed formula they shout is, but I always thought they were a fun legacy that ran alongside the golden age Flash.

The Justice Society

@BirdboyVigilante and Sir Justin in the JLU cartoon was pure gold. Bring that energy plz...

The Justice Society

@PumpkinIsACat Maybe Golden Eagle or Northwind as a secondary?

@Omega Man Added a secondary.

@Blizz Maybe go with a light-based character like Brighteyes or The Ray? Or the other Hal Jordan?

@Divine Darkness

Just saw your secondary was another archer. Needs to be something more in line with the Society. It's unlikely that a teenage girl with a bow and no ties to a Society legacy hero would get in, but two? Tons of great examples being thrown around by everybody...

Might change my secondary one more time since Atom Smasher may be a character somebody wants to use since he's showing up in Black Adam soon. Two potential players have shown interest in different interpretations of Dr. Fate, so @Birdboy might wanna go ahead and pick somebody else too.

If I could get a CS typed up before Friday, I'd just make Starman 1 Million another NPC/Plot device and do something a little different with somebody like the Human Bomb. I've got about a dozen or so ideas for JSA related heroes LOL

The Justice Society

@PumpkinIsACat It could be some version of Hawkman with her, or generally anybody tied to the JSA. Since that other player isn't joining with Fury you could have a version of her running around all Amazonian like...

The Justice Society

Here's a list of the accepted characters, the mentors, the folks still needing a CS, as well as the secondary characters. Anything needing altered will be noted...

Secondaries/Background Heroes

Atom Smasher - Changed my secondary to fill out the roster a bit better and to add an NPC for those affiliated with Infinity Inc.
Doctor Fate - Solid choice.
___________ DD needs to choose somebody if she wants to.
The Shade - We don't need two guy's with shadow powers.
Amazing Man - Solid choice.
___________ Our new Hawkwoman needs a secondary, unless the player doesn't want to include one.

Also, I haven't heard from R2 in a few days so I put in MSABAM in there as a place holder.

Titans Academy

For anybody reading this and not checking Discord, this thing isn't dead LOL. Slowing working on finishing up Episodes 1 & 2 ad then we'll be moving straight along with the entire gang into Ep. 3 to introduce the next team mentor and combat trainer... ARSENAL.

Currently our Co-GM is having computer issues, and another player @Wxer has been silent for a bit (we all hope you're doing okay!).

Stay tuned.

The Justice Society

@Divine Darkness Yeah go ahead and PM me any other details. Probably gonna use that first story idea for an episode or three...

@Nightwing95 Still got plenty of room! Can't wait to see it...

The Justice Society

@Omega Man Sounds good. Just wondering though for when I go sifting’ through characters I might want to try; do they have to have been a part of JSA or can they be from one of those affiliate teams linked on the first post? Mercy was a part of Infinity Inc for a bit which was the reason I tried writing her up.

Gonna go lookin’ again for something/someone I’d like to write and get a CS up ASAP!

@rocketrobie2

They could be from an affiliate team but some of them don't ever cross over, that's why I posted the team links rather than the lists comicvine had as some of them weren't complete or used many characters from across the multiverse. Like Plastic Man is sometimes used with the Freedom Fighters but he's never been JSA. Same for Green Arrow, he was a member of the classic 7 Soldiers but never in the Society. I actually forgot about that weird Countdown era Infinity Inc that spawned from the Everyman Project. That team is more tied to Superman than the JSA like it was originally. With the 7 Soldiers characters there's room for some of the newer ones to cross over like the second Shining Knight, Boy Blue, and the Whip... but then at the same time there's several other characters that just don't fit like the second Mister Miracle and Klarion the Witch Boy.

Knowing how well you write young characters I think Jakeem Thunder or just modernizing Johnny Thunder would be dope to see. I mentioned Silver Scarab earlier because I loved the take we came up with for the JL Losers 1x1 we did for a bit and I know you have a big soft spot for Ted Kord.

For anybody watching this, a handful of characters off the top of my head I'd LOVE to see in this RP:

Invisible Hood, Red Torpedo, Silver Scarab, Atom-Smasher, Brainwave, Hawkgirl, Dr. Fate, STRIPE, Crimson Avenger, Sandman/Sanderson Hawkins, the Ray, Human Bomb, Black Condor, Liberty Belle, Johnny Quick, Capt. Marvel/Shazam or Black Adam, Iron Munroe, Damage... I could go on for awhile so I'm just gonna stop there.
