Bumping this

Yes, though the Elders are the oldest of the immortals (allegedly since they rewrote a lot of historical events in a 'history is written by the victor sense.') since the Vampires are the oldest sub-species.

Already taken there.
Kal'el is alive, and is on Earth currently, but the idea of Superman doesn't exist, I'll be playing him as his story instigates a part of the overall plot.
In regards to swaps of that kind, it really depends on the character. Batman's origin, as the successor of the a wealthy East coast family dating back a long way somewhat designates him as a white male, but, Dick Grayson could reasonably be of any ethnicity. Religious conversions are somewhat easier to change, as are places of birth and origin, for Gender swaps, run it by me first before developing the concept. Well, in reality, run any of these by me, but that especially might need some discussion.
Hope that clears everything up.
ooh! This looks interesting.
Not to infringe on your idea but I think it could also be cool if we just played our heroes through the ages but not as immortals but as each successor of the mantle.
We start whenever we want to start and play that character until they grow old and pass on the title to their chosen heir, or maybe they get killed and somebody honors them by becoming the next generation. It would provide a lot of freedom with characters dying and role play styles being able to change from generation to generation. Also super easy for people to come and go without difficulty or complication for anyone involved.
