@Mao Mao Just curious, but what are the odds of Batman intervening with a quest mission that Slades has in Gotham?

As of right now, nobody is accepted, so you're welcome to join the discord when I put it up. However, at this rate, I don't think there'll be enough room for everyone who has been interested. But at the least, everyone who joins the discord can spitball ideas.


Okay, and got it. I would like an invite to the discord when you get it up. I got one idea for a char.
Interested, if you are still accepting/looking for people.
Nice, and now I have to figure out where to have Slade start at.

DEATHSTROKE


"Do not mess with my family"
SLADE JOSEPH WILSON MERCENARY/BOUNTY HUNTER UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
O R I G I N S:


Slade Wilson had a rough life growing up, abused by his father and abandoned by his mother. Slade, rather than endure this abuse any longer and having worked up the courage, he would run away from home and never look back. He would eventually end up in the care of an old couple who took him in after they discovered him near their home. There, rather than abuse him, they would treat him like their own child and would raise him well, and Slade vowed never to like his father. When he came of age, Slade decided to join the military.

Slade did very well in the army, proving to be a capable soldier, and would meet others and befriend other soldiers and even marry a fellow soldier, Adeline Kane. They would later have a son together named Grant. Slade would later be assigned to a covert team named Team 7, where they would first take the name Deathstroke from himself. However, the team would fail and be later disbanded after a mission gone wrong. Later, Slade would volunteer for an experimental procedure that the US hoped would make a supersoldier. Only he survived, and he would, after recovery, test his newfound limits and deal with criminals. When he was arrested a month later, Adeline gave him an ultimatum, continue this new behavior or his family, and Slade would choose his family. However, when he was approached by a member of his old team, William Walsh came to him about a job dealing with a scientist who if allowed to testify to Congress about the supersoldier experiment. It would place his family in the crosshairs, and he would be offered a million dollars for the job. He accepted and lied to Adeline about the true nature of his leaving. Slade would be given what would be his signature suit.

The job would succeed, and when Slade returned home, a suspicious Adeline questioned him about where he was. Which grew into an argument, and he would give in and tell Adeline the truth. This truth ended their marriage, which devastated Slade. This was made worse when he found out that William lied to him and that he and his family would have been fine despite the scientist's testimony. Now filled with guilt and remorse over his actions. Slade, after a long time of thinking, decided on a new path for himself. While he would support himself as a bounty hunter and mercenary. However, he would be selective and only choose jobs that aligned with his morals. Slade is committed to getting revenge on William and finding out who he was really working for. As Slade would discover, finding William and who he really works for is just the beginning.

S A M P L E P O S T:

It has been a long day for Slade as he entered to his hideout, one of several. It was a dark and rainy night, and Slade could hear the rain fall on the old roof of his hideout. An old abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city, which Slade made sure was safe enough for him to operate from and out of view.

Another bounty, another job done. He thought to himself as he walked over to bed and sat down on it. Even if this bounty was a piece of trash and seemed like an easy jig. This bounty, Micheal Cole, was more of a problem than he thought. But, at the end of the day, Michael is behind bars, and he gets his payday. Still, at least now he can rest a bit and relax after a hard day's work.

As Slade slowly took off his armor and weapons, starting with his helmet. When his hand reached for his belt, Slade, for a moment, as if by instinct, reached for the hidden compartment in his armor and took out the photo of him with his family. At that moment, everything seemed to slow, and small tears started to form on his face. He messed up, that is clear, and he trusted the wrong person, and now the thing he cared for the most hates him. Slade's saddened voice spoke that single name, "Adeline," and then another, "Grant." Though he felt like crying, he knew he should not right now and calmed himself. However, his feelings remain the same. Slade does not know if he can reconcile with Adeline and be a family again, but that is something he will think about once he is done with William.

Anger slowly replaced sadness as Slade thought of that name. The man he thought he would trust ended up lying to him, and it cost him his family. Slade is not one to kill civilians or innocents, and he did so on a lie. He put the photo back in its hidden compartment and put his gear away. However, he kept his pistol and knife on his. Now in his civilian clothes, Slade walked over to his desk and accessed it in short order. Checking his bank account, and now, with his new funds, it is time to continue his mission. Find William Walsh and find out who he works for, and get revenge.

As Slade started his research, his encrypted phone rang, and it was someone he could trust. Someone who was also tricked by Walsh. Slade answered in a calm tone, "What is it, Wintergreen?"

Hearing that familiar British accent, "Slade, I have good news. I got a lead on Walsh."

Slade smiled in a way he had not done in a long time, "Wintergreen, tell me everything."

Just to be clear, we aren't accepting explicitly villainous characters. If someone applies for one, the expectation is that they're being molded to a more heroic or anti-heroic alignment, IE. Wolverine and The Punisher. A strictly amoral character would have to be reserved as an NPC. So if you want to play Slade with that condition, we can agree to letting him in.


I agree to that and that was the plan. I tried to make Slade into more of a hero or at least an anti-hero based on the changes I made to him. So he still kills people, but only bad guys or people that mess with his family. But yeah, I agree to Slade not being a villain or strictly amoral character.

I wouldn't say supportive... It always depends on your concept.

It's more than I'm not against it.


Okay, either way, the concept is out, and I will see if it works.
Okay, I did not know that Deadpool was being played, and I am not dead set on playing as him, though Slade would be a good idea. I might have an idea for him that might work since Sep is supportive of Slade. So how goes nothing.
After looking at this thread a couple of times, I might as well post here if I do not join. I had some character ideas for this one, and I might have one that could work or at least a working idea. A version of Deadpool, a bit more serious, who got cancer later in life when he got a family and would go through the experimentation as normal and be somewhat insane and fourth walling but lost most of his memories after it. He still remembers his family and his name and is driven to recover his lost memories while fighting crime at the same time. .

Still thinking of a solid concept, but that is one.
