The Doctor is in

Name. Stephen Strange, MD, PhD

Alias. Dr. Strange
Age. 55
Place of Birth. Philadelphia, USA

Powers.
Dr. Strange has a vast and versatile array of spells and mystical abilities, augmented by his arsenal of magical artifacts. They range from the stereotypical options such as flight, energy blasts, shields, teleportation, and astral projection, to more esoteric charms and curses. All magic must be powered by something, and some of Strange’s most potent spells draw from entities that can demand a heavy toll on the user if abused. Strange is also still a human, with all of the weaknesses that entails, and invoking magic frequently requires him to be able to make certain gestures or utter certain phrases. Aside from his magical skill, Stephen also has great medical knowledge and a mind for thinking of creative strategies on the fly, and is an expert martial artist.

History.

Stephen Strange drove himself to become the world’s greatest neurosurgeon due to guilt from his sister’s death. A car accident damaged his nerves and forced him to abandon his surgical career, he searched for a cure and after many failures he came to Kamar Taj, where he studied under The Ancient One. He quickly became a Master of the Mystical Arts and claimed the title of Earth’s Sorcerer Supreme, defending the planet from magical threats. Over the years he’s met other sorcerers, fought invasions from other realms, joined superhero teams, had over a dozen people/otherworldly entities add him to their “mortal enemies” list, been involved in a complicated romance with a sorceress from the Dark Dimension named Clea that still isn’t resolved because neither is sure how to properly handle divorce procedures for a magical soul bond, gained new powers, lost new powers, made some questionable fashion choices and helped save the world a couple of times.

The most recent disruption to Strange’s life came unexpectedly. The Sorcerer Supreme’s role had been quiet lately, Baron Mordo was dead (for the time being), Dormammu was losing a Dark Dimension civil war badly enough that he had no time to mess with Earth, the Fear Lords had some kind of falling out and were fighting amongst themselves, and Shuma-Gorath was doing whatever he does when he’s not actively trying to devour everything. All was well, until the Vishanti called him for a great mystical war, the War of the Seven Spheres. He tried to resist but was pulled in anyway, into a dimension where time did not flow as it did in mortal realms. The war lasted millennia, scarring Strange’s psyche from the extreme length and constant fighting, but when he returned to Earth only four months had passed, and his body was none the worse for the wear. In his absence, Wong had assumed the role of Sorcerer Supreme and done an admirable job of defending the realm. Now Strange is adrift, searching for what to do and dealing with the lingering effects of the epic conflict, trying to find a role for himself in a rapidly changing world.

Story Arcs.

Nunc Dimittis
During the war Strange saw a vision about who the next Sorcerer Supreme would be. He hasn’t fully decoded it or unraveled the other meanings hidden within, but he knows that it could have grave implications for the future. He’ll try to find this next holder of the title, but what will be left for him after this, and what else will he uncover on his quest?

Dormammu I’ve Come to Bargain (for real this time)
Strange attempts to negotiate a lasting peace treaty between Earth and the Dark Dimension. That’s going to be a challenge, and one that he would prefer not to take up alone. He’s going to have to sit down with some of his bitterest and most duplicitous foes, and also his ex-wife. People say it’s impossible, but Strange is no stranger to doing the impossible.

Loki

(image credit: queteezee on tumblr)

Name. Loki Laufeyson
Alias. Agent of Asgard, God of Trickery, D.B. Cooper
Age. Approx 1050 years old (1st incarnation)
Place of Birth. Jotunheim

Powers.

Frost Giant Physiology: Loki is a Frost Giant, though he has been enchanted with an Asgardian appearance. This gives him a greatly enhanced condition, including superhuman strength, endurance, agility, speed and reflexes. He was able to handle the power of an Infinity Stone without being harmed, and tanked blows from an enraged Hulk. His speed is especially noteworthy: Though his strength may be inferior to the likes of Thor or the Hulk, he still moves shockingly fast, able to catch Hawkeye’s arrow midair and outmanoeuvre opponents stronger than him to gain the upper hand.

He also possesses an accelerated rate of healing: While he cannot instantly regenerate, the rate at which his body repairs damage is greatly increased, allowing him to walk off injuries after a short period of recuperation.

Additionally, he is immune to extreme cold temperatures and the freezing touch of a Frost Giant, though being exposed to these will temporarily dispel his enchantment and reveal his Frost Giant appearance.

Sorcery: Loki is a master sorcerer, taught by his adoptive mother Frigga from an early age. His command over magic is nigh unrivalled, with even Odin being impressed by his spellcasting abilities. His control over the arcane manifests in a variety of ways.

Illusionary Magic: Loki’s favourite form of magic, illusion magic specialises in trickery and deceit to fool the enemy. Loki can create incredibly detailed illusions, changing his shape, clothes and voice to expertly mimic other people and even other species, such as frogs and snakes. He can fake death by conjuring imitation wounds, and can conjure basic weapons like daggers and spears to attack with. Loki cannot use this ability to escape restraints, however, though he can use his illusions to make it look as if he is unrestrained.

Additionally, Loki can create duplicate copies of himself. These duplicates cannot interact with the real world, and anyone who attempts to touch them will phase right through.

Loki can also use trickery to appear as though he is invisible, obscuring the ability to perceive him in any way from even the all-seeing Heimdall. He is not actually invisible, however: It is simply a trick of the mind. As a result of this, he can choose how he appears, appearing to just one person or appearing to everyone but being unable to be captured on recordings or CCTV. However, making his presence known by interacting with someone physically will break the spell, and his reflection will still appear in mirrors and other surfaces.

Mind Manipulation: Loki can hypnotise others to varying degrees. He was capable of subtly influencing the human Eric Selvig to do his bidding, and could even cast a spell on Odin to influence him to leave Asgard. Like real hypnosis, however, he cannot simply command someone to do something: He must make subtle suggestions to steer them in the right direction. With physical contact, he can delve into the memories of others, reading their minds and forcing them to relive memories.

Conjuration: Loki can enchant items and summon and de-summon them at will. Most commonly, he uses this ability to arm himself with daggers. However, he has also used it in the past to summon the Casket of Ancient Winters and the Tesseract while they were in his possession.

Telekinesis: Loki can manipulate objects with his mind, capable of lifting and scattering objects. Objects he manipulates with his mind are shrouded in a green hazy aura, much like his illusions when they are dispelled or interacted with. He has even held up part of a collapsing building with this power, and rocked the foundations of his prison cell, scattering objects all around him.

Weaknesses:
Though strong, Loki is often outclassed in a straight fight, and must rely on his magic to gain the upper hand. He is also quite arrogant, which can be manipulated against him by those that can match his cunning wit.

Loki’s illusions are simply that: Illusions. They cannot harm anyone or influence the real world, even if they appear to be able to.

History.
Loki had lived a long life, and he was acutely aware that his death was fast approaching. Indeed, as his Chitauri invasion began to crumble around him, it seemed as if Loki’s number was up. Then it was the business with the Dark Elves, then it was that debacle with Hela, then he’d heard Thanos was up and about once again. Loki revelled in danger, of course: He lived his life on the edge, and would his cunning escapes be so daring without such a lofty consequence for failure? Still, Loki’s love for winning was matched perhaps only by his hatred for losing, and it was of utmost importance that he took care of this whole “dying” business quickly.

It was a dark ritual, forbidden in Asgardian culture. Hela had conjured it up with blasphemous intent, a spit in the face of everything Odin’s faithful believed in. But spitting in the face of everything Odin’s faithful believed in was Loki’s modus operandi, and he got up every morning with blasphemous intent—a dark spell to defy death and reincarnate himself was really nothing out of the ordinary. So the ritual was sealed, and as Loki breathed his final breath onboard the Statesman, his soul soared towards the universe…And came crashing back down to reality. He was reborn in a new body, youthful and with a neck that remained mercifully unsnapped. Of course, he was trapped in the vacuum of space now, but he was over the moon that the ritual had actually worked—the Asgardians who recovered him, however, were less than enthused.

For so vile a sin, Loki should have received no mercy from the Asgardians. However, acknowledging his good deeds alongside Thor, as well as the circumstances of Asgard, his punishment was scaled back. The Asgardians were exposed in this new world, needing desperately to establish a solid foothold on Earth and show humanity they were a proud, stable nation, not in danger of collapsing in on themselves against a stiff breeze. Thus, it was necessary to imitate the strategies the world’s superpowers used to get to the top—and, after brief analysis, they concluded that the number one strategy to success was to simply spy on everyone. So, they needed a spy—and who better than the criminal pleading for a lesser sentence?

Thus, Loki became an agent of Asgard, acting at the behest of the Asgardians. It was his job to identify potential threats to his people, eliminating them before they became too great to handle. He’d infiltrate the enemy and learn how best to defeat them, infiltrate potential allies and learn how best to win their favour. If he didn’t, then he would be hunted by the elite guard of Asgard, and thrown into a cell to live out the remainder of his foul life.
Understandably, Loki was not too thrilled with this arrangement. WIth his newest assignment being to investigate the mutant nation of Krakoa, however, it may finally have been time for him to break free and do what he was always meant to do—cause problems on purpose.

Story Arcs.
Arc - Freedom from Bondage
Loki seeks to shake the hold Asgard has over him, escaping their clutches once and for all.

Arc - History in the Making
He is Loki, after all. What good would a trickster god be if he didn’t get himself involved in a few soon-to-be historical events? A new nation is the perfect place to remake a name for himself.

"Glorious purpose."

Approved, though very curious to see how he gets involved. lol

JEAN GREY

30 Years Old ⭙ Krakoan/American ⭙ Quiet Council of Krakoa

⭙ _{H I S T O R Y} ⭙

She is the most recent field leader of the X-Men, a member of the original five, and a mutant leader that's become one of the faces of Krakoa to the wider world and mutants making their way to the island. All of that before a mention of a certain cosmic force. Perhaps more importantly for the future, Jean is one of the very few mutants Krakoans could trust to challenge any faction or member of leadership on the island should need arise. Her story starts as a girl, the car crash on an old two-line highway. She remembers more of it than she'd like, the heat and the concrete and the glass and the blood. The crash began the slow cascade of psychic episodes, culminating in terrified parents calling everyone from trusted clergy to pseudo-specialists out to the family's farmhouse on the Annadale-on-Hudson river. When Jean looks back, now, she understands. As a child, however, loss and death were insurmountable cliff faces she would have to climb each day. It's occurred to Jean recently that there's no telling when extra-dimensional forces might have been nudging her life in one direction, or another. She knows from experience from other timelines and time-travelers that her presence on the first team of X-Men made a difference in the vast multi-verse.

Her first meeting with Xavier was rather unspectacular. He won over her parents well before her won her over. There's no understating what Charles Xavier did to save Jean during the early years. Her drift towards the great void had already begun by the time he even met her, providing a small window of time to help bring Jean back to life. Experiencing death, and the full trauma of it from her own perspective, was enough to send Jean Grey running the ethereal and astral in search of anything, or anyone. She mostly found memories, psychic reflections of reality that burn like small stars, but after enough time she began to experience the echoes of others. Xavier states this is when he came to discover Jean Grey, the telepath. The best account is Xavier's, "the reason she was on the team, the reason she became so central, was because we didn't know the upper-limits of her ability. Yet few know the utility of that mutant gift such as I do." Regardless of intention, Jean spent most of the first few years ducking for cover and yelling for help. It was a disaster. Xavier insisted on having her focus on constant connection to him, to updates to team, to psychic defenses.

It was thankless work that no one but Xavier needed and it almost got her killed a few times. Despite their success, there was hope before Krakoa. The island will forever mean something a little different to Jean Grey. She spent the years in darkness combating the island. She was a main architect in expelling it from the planet. At one point, it had gotten personal with Krakoa and Jean Grey. Where that leaves them today is an unknown wrinkle. The team hit it's stride after Krakoa, new additions, and new dynamics in the Institute. Jean officially graduates Xavier's and begins at Bard College. She will finish a Bachelor's in Biology, all the while remaining a part time X-Men when the team needed her. She was a week from graduating when a mission in space to escape Sentinels sent to kidnap and kill them forced Jean to make a sacrifice and pilot an escape shuttle in extreme radiation conditions. Scott claims to watch her die, minutes before the Phoenix Force resurrects her and keeps her friends safe. The Phoenix Force lost itself in Jean, twisting Jean's darker aspects into the Dark Phoenix.

What started as an attempt at mind control ended in the destruction of a star system and the death of billions, all directly from actions taken by the Dark Phoenix. Logan claims to watch Jean sacrifice herself in order to rob the Phoenix Force of it's precocious 'host.' Jean Grey would disagree in that she died. According to her, she ascended upon her physical death, her interconnected nature with the Phoenix Force, at the time, making any true death an impossibility. She admits to those who have asked that it's hard to merge how people see time and space, and how she and time and space were during her time with the Phoenix Force, after her apparent death. She had died and returned more times than she could, she saw and experienced variations of reality that simply did not belong to the the normal timeline, or any parallel timeline she had seen before. She had been there for Scott when he needed her reassurances most. She appeared for Logan when there was no reason for him to want to keep going. In time, to a very small select few, it became a known secret that Jean Grey was dead, maybe forever.

But she wasn't gone. Even as other Phoenix hosts came to be and fell back, she was an absolution as the White Phoenix of the Crown.

Her return would come recently, in 2015. Her return would immediately get her friends and loves ones in danger, as the Shi'ar Empire would demand her arrest and trial for the deaths caused by the Dark Phoenix. After the many pleas of her close friends, Jean accepted trial-by-combat. X-Men, vs the Shi'Ar Imperial Guard. Though the X-Men are an amazing team of individuals with astonishing powers and more experience together than most, it wasn't enough to defeat the Imperial Guard. In the end it was Jean who challenged the Imperial Guard's leader in single combat. The amount of energy Jean Grey released in those moments was enough to shake the very foundations of the universe; she had done the impossible and won her freedom. Though she promised to continue being a hero and saving as many lives as she had caused the death of, the shadow of the Phoenix is a long, dark, thing. The finishes up the break with the Phoenix, working with the Cuckoos and Emma Frost to free Hope Summers of any possible Phoenix possession. The latest iteration of the X-Men was her team, resulting in success against a reality bending foe.

Jean died in 2019, a secret known only to Xavier and Magneto and Storm. She, along with all the other mutants who died destroying the Mother Mold being created by Orchis in their Forge, were resurrected later using Krakoan resurrection protocols. The mission is a partial success. The mutant circuit responsible for resurrection, the Five, do note unusual difficulty, at parts, and unusual ease, at other parts, in returning Jean Grey to life. Jean has recently been named a member of the Quiet Council, and spends most of her time helping Krakoan missions from X-Force to X-Factor to the Marauders. She has easily been one of the busiest, and most visible, mutants of the new age.

Jean is an Omega level telepath, and an Alpha level telekinetic of immense power.

The Immortal X-Men A mistake by X-Force costs a lot of innocent lives, and drives two original X-Men farther apart than their relationship has ever been as the very soul of Krakoa, the nation, is debated. Cerebra is discussed in greater detail, and an uninvited visitor attempts a lunar walk to access the real power behind what Cerebra has become. Scott and Jean question their place on the Krakoan Quiet Council, wondering if Krakoa, and mutants as a whole, need them doing something else. Something different.

I might need help with this, I'm returning to writing after being on a hiatus for 5-6 years and am having trouble coming up with ideas, but am very interested in joining. I will try to finish up my character sheet myself but am open to suggestions.

@catnyxx

Happy to oblige, if it helps feel free to DM/PM me, but definitely start with what you want to achieve from the character. Easier to plot things out when certain motivations are known.

Marvel: Judgment Day

if you're still taking players!

@udonoodles

We're very much 'open' to players right now.

We, ultimately, expect a small-ish group for this...but we're not turning people away if it gets larger than 'small group.'

So bring your ideas, for sure. In fact I suppose now is as good a time as any to point out there's been a Discord for this game where we hammer out setting/plot details. Potential players are welcome to come chat with us there.

Marvel: Judgment Day

Watching. Can you give an example of a large event as mentioned in the general information?

@Visa

X of Swords, a tournament held in another dimension for the survival of Krakoa.

Hellfire Gala, a giant party filled with politics, intrigue, where mutants rub elbows with heroes and some villains from the rest of the Marvel universe.

Those are a few Canon events likely being reworked and customized for the RP.

Marvel: Judgment Day

Someone reminded me of this.

Marvel: Judgment Day

[01]................................[GENERAL OVERVIEW]
[02]......................................................[SETTING]

Yes. There's a Discord for the game. We don't mind if you don't join it and just communicate on the forum.

01.general.overview

[01][marvel.judgment-day]................................[GENERAL OVERVIEW]

The Avengers have moved their base to the body of a dead Celestial, the world calls it Avengers Mountain. Word has reached terrestrial governments of Earth that a new Empress has been crowned in the Shi’ar Empire, while the Kree/Skrull Alliance threatens the status-quo of the cosmic order. For the first time in a long time, all members of the Fantastic Four are alive, and back together. Thanos reigned as Eternal Prime until just recently, when the Uni-Mind elected Druig following Thanos’ mysterious demise. The mutants of the world have gathered on their living island of Krakoa, announcing to every mind on the planet the birth of a mutant nation, where all mutants are welcome.

Current planned ‘background’ events for everyone to jump in-or-out of will be: Cotati Invasion, Gameworld, and the First Annual Hellfire Gala. And, of course, the roleplay main plot will see the entire planet caught up in the Judgment Day of a single, untethered, Celestial as it passes judgment on each character, as well as the planet of Earth as a whole.
General RP Information

[*] This game is a re-launch. Why are we re-launching? To center the game around one big general Marvel event that, by nature of Judgment Day, allows every character and player to have their moment in the spotlight.
[*] This will be a hybrid MCU/comics timeline, with the rule of thumb that if the MCU didn’t cover it, defer to the comics history.
[*] This is a Marvel game. You are not restricted to Avengers, or mutants, or Eternals, or…anything. You are not restricted to heroes. Be a villain. Be the UK Prime Minister.
[*] Speaking of restrictions…you are not restricted to canon characters. Earth has a large metahuman population; make up your own character if you want. Pick an obscure character and re-imagine them. Multiversal fuckery? Sure. Street level, God level, everything in-between. Judgment Day comes for all.
[*] This is a sandbox game, with large events that you will be able to be part of or ignore. Likewise, bring your own stories and plots for others to bounce off of and interact with.
[*] Play entire teams, play multiple characters. We do not have a large number of players in mind for this. Join if you want to collaborate and build something for the long term.
[*] Game will be casual, accepting of both those who knows comics lore well, and those who've only seen some cartoons and MCU movies.
GM is myself, Co-GMs are Zeke and Fiber.

02.setting.overview

[02][marvel.judgment-day]................................[SETTING OVERVIEW]

As stated in the general overview, the setting will be a mix of MCU and comics. So long as you have some familiarity with the MCU, and don't mind doing some wiki reading on larger comic events, then you should be easily able to start making characters and stories for the setting without running into major roadblocks. Any questions or guidance needed the GMs are happy to answer and provide. Of course, should there be a character or event not covered by the MCU, so long as it doesn't conflict in major ways with setting continuinity the rule will be to defer to the comic books. This isn't a perfect solution, and there will be some holes to fill, but it should create a common foundation for players to begin collaborating without needing to be a 'well, actually...' level comicbook nerd.

Examples of large comic events that will factor into the game setting include House of M and Secret Wars (the recent one).

New York City, Avengers Mountain, and Krakoa will factor largely as IC locations, though given Marvel technology there's nowhere your characters and stories can't go. Much more information on Krakoa and Eternals locations will be given in the OOC, so if you're unfamiliar don't worry, we will have you covered on a detailed level (everything from geography, defense, housing, to economy). In the meantime, feel free to ask any question you might have, or do your own search—there's plenty of information out there.
