@MrDidact Cool, I'll just probably give the bio a beef up before the IC starts.

Also anyone have a Joker or any other major Gotham villian in the pipes? Probably going to write one in the next day.
I would like to just go H.A.M with the bio and flesh out the current state of Gotham if no one has any relevant fluff planned.
You seem to be getting close to your limit but I'm interested in seeing an OC. Do you have the year it's going to be set in yet? All three games take place a pretty far way apart from one another so it might be a bit difficult to think up characters.
@mattmanganon I like this character, but surely being from star-labs he'd be able to clock a pretty good up/down speed with his usb finger.
@MrDidact Na Jackson Douglass is an original character. Probably going to use him to set up a relevant magician plot point.

Zatara’s costume for the first decade of his career was a pianist tuxedo akin to his mothers (minus the fish net stockings of course), it never really settled on one individual look with hats, canes and vests cycling through.

Now-a-days Zatara prefers a subtler look and wears moderately expensive suits, always black with a white shirt though, he’s not a savage.

Homo Magi
Being the daughter of Zantanna Zatara Rex has access to some of the most power magical genes in the world.
As is standard for the Zatara family at this point Zatara can perform magic by uttering the words backwards. His power level matches his mothers at similar age but unlike Zantanna, Rex isn’t constantly investigating magical occurrences and trying to improve his ability. But he does have a huge wealth of knowledge in the arcane arts.

Justice league member

Being a lifer in the league Rex is one of the most effective operator in the justice league of America, as much as he is regarded for his skill as magic user he’s also got quite a reputation for his managerial magic.
With nearly 20 years of jumping into the situations that should end the life of a non-meta-human he has a commendable knowledge of battlefield strategy especially against legion of doom forces.

Hand-to-hand experience

You don’t work alongside bat-brats, kryptonians and ex league of shadow assassins without learning how to throw a pretty fierce punch. And while Rex certainly isn’t doing flips like his spandex wearing team-mates his combat style can be much more physical than expected, when magic is added to the mix Rex can become deadly.

Jackson’s pocket watch

An heirloom from his father and one of the most powerful magical artefacts made in the last 200 years – this intricate has powerful magic crystal from gemword (love it when there’s some convient lore resource: dc.wikia.com/wiki/Gemworld). This magical item can teleport exactly one person to any place he thinks of almost instaneously, once opened and winded.

more facts:
-It was made by a powerful British magician, who may or may not of written Alice in Wonderland, as to never be late.
-Virtually indestructible
-can take the appearance of generic watch (won’t turn into a rolex no matter what magic Rex uses.)
-if turned upside down and held out at arms reach it supposedly turns into a compass that points to what the user desires most. (after owning it for nearly all his life Rex finds that claim questionable.)
-time is always correct: no need to change for time zones or daylight savings

Little black book of spells
Fits in his pants pocket, a small mokeskin full of useful spells he’s collected over the years, arranged alphabetically and necessary for more complex spells. Also has some phone numbers and poetry at the back
Deck of playing cards

Keys to ShadowCrest

Shadowcrest is the ancestral home of the Zatara family. It is normally used as the place to practice magic and learn the secrets of the occult by Zatara and his daughter, Zatanna.
A mansion of vast mystical properties, it is not always situated in the same locale for extended periods of time. Mystical wards protect the mansion from unwanted trespassers, and other incantations are used to render it invisible to those untrained in the mystic arts. Located in Gotham county just outside Gotham city.

Still human
Rex’s physiocology is entirely mortal and although he’s become pretty good at healing himself with magic on the go he’s still made of paper compared to the demi-gods that inhabit the world now

Magic words
Too perform any spell Zatara needs to say the spell if he can’t say the words you can take him out easily (or at least in theory)..

Zatara, you could say was one of the first justice babies. An offspring of a hero whom's entire life was going to be the preparation for a mantle and then the responsibility of it until their death. Rex was born on May 21st 2021 the first of many more to come.

He was the child of Zatanna Zatara, famous stage illusionist and powerful magic user, and Jackson Douglas a “detective in the occult. “and adept magician himself. Older beings in the magic community commented on the aura of Rex’s power from an early age and performing magic came as easily as speaking the words backwards.
Rex was in the fight from the day he could understand it and was a teen titans member at 15, 3 years later he would be one of the last leaders of the team before all the graduates had to go through the Titan academy. Meaning he was well acquainted and well-connected with who would go on to represent the league in its current day.

Now a full leaguer in an organisation gaining strength by the day Rex did everything he could to improve it, working closely with support and managerial staff to turn the Justice League into the super power it is today. He also worked with other homo-magi communities to create some sort of international organisation in the Justice League Council for Magical affairs which created a school for the magical arts at titan academy and gave magic users a political platform for the first in forever.

Having a superhero career spanning his entire adult life, Rex has become quite accustomed to battle, loss and sacrifice. Losing many of his friends in the early days of the war the quickly aging wizard only hardened in his efforts, becoming of the most respected active superheros on the eastern seaboard, with special efforts in the magical and occult societies of Gotham, Bludhaven, Metropolis and New-York.

Probably going to need to message Flamebird to flesh and other people to flesh out my bio a bit.

Can I reserve a Zatanna character?
Probably also going to work on a character.
Yeah I'm down. I may take chapter librarian, or scout captain.
Potential space for new players?
