Technically he doesn't have any powers. On mars he has super strength and agility, but that's because Edgar Rice Burrough's Mars has lower gravity, so he just seems superhuman compared to the Martians and the Martian atmosphere. On Earth he doesn't have any powers since he's...y'know, an ordinary if skilled human. Also he's unaging, but that might have something to do with astral projecting back and forth from Mars and being reconstituted in an identical body each time.He's basically an earlier, barbarian-hero stylized version of Adam Strange and his adventures on Raan. He's also like Adam Strange in that putting him in-context on Earth kind of makes him pointless and goes against how the character works, but that's my opinion I guess?Also just realized that using John Carter at all would likely mean ignoring any parts of the setting involving DC Comics Martians.

Well we can bend his origin a bit since a full metal alchemists character is in this rp

They all basically said it for me yog...

would you be okay with me using John Carter and just having him be able to have all of his superhuman abilities on earth as well?

DC Universe: Crisis of a new Era

Malcolm was finishing helping the police take the criminals away when he felt a blast and he was concerned with what was the cause of it and he was worried that innocent people might be hurt. he took off into the air and had his gravity powers fly him towards the source of the sound as quick as possible. While he flew he saw someone flying in the same direction and Malcolm wondered who it could've been. he soon was able to see the colors and S shield of Superman on the girl's costume and realized that she had to be Supergirl.

He flew after her as quick he could and wondered if she had heard the blast as well. Malcolm was also curious to find out why the cousin of Superman was in Gotham and not metropolis. When he saw her land at some old looking mansion, he landed not too far away and walked towards her.

"Supergirl, what are you doing here? Did you pick up on that loud blast as well?" he asked the super heroine as he kept his gravity field up in case he needed to defend himself, this place gave him the creeps and he wasn't too big of a fan of Gotham with all of its violent criminals and its dark streets.

Bucky has a robotic arm, but he still seems to fall under the 'non-powered' category. Not to mention that Nightwing has gadgets out the wazoo. Both are in peak human condition and are very intelligent. The fact is, we already have enough norms. We need powers.

That'll make things difficult, superpowered canon characters in my experiences have been notorious for messing up things in rps

Similar issues as Walter referred mainly to his being a non-powered hero in the case of savage. Too much overlap with Nightwing, Bucky and initially Iron Fist

So because he's non powered it won't work? He is an expert in many fields and he is at the peak of human physical perfection as well as being a genius, he can be very different from either of those heroes and he has his own gadgets

Doc savage is good, he has an oath that makes him like the predecessor to all moral superheroes

"Let me strive every moment of my life to make myself better and better, to the best of my ability, that all may profit by it. Let me think of the right and lend all my assistance to those who need it, with no regard for anything but justice. Let me take what comes with a smile, without loss of courage. Let me be considerate of my country, of my fellow citizens and my associates in everything I say and do. Let me do right to all, and wrong no man."

But rightwing is in this and he has no powers, why couldn't doc savage be in this?

how do you guys feel about Pulp heroes being in this rp? They did after all lay the ground work for all superheroes and I would love to use one of them as a character.

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

Hmm...I guess I hate people who ask them to PM you about an RP scenario but don't get back. Recently I've had two RPs just drop dead and a few that I cancelled and there's no news. Nothing. And I'm just there like "Sooooo what now?". But for the most part, I understand and accept it for the most part.However, being a good GM is hard. It takes a lot of work to keep things going, and just recently with my interest check pretty much skyrocketing people wanting to join, I've decided to take a Co-GM on board to help. This is my first time with being a GM for a Roleplay and I'm hoping I'm doing okay (We're almost at the RP stage). However, I don't think I could ever do what your saying.Think about this. Let's take your scenario with team mates. We'll say what you did, Guy A does his thing and does well. It becomes Guy B's turn but as he finishes, they notice that Guy A is unable to carry on playing. Guy A needs , and regardless of their hobby, Guy B and Guy C should be waiting and supporting Guy A instead of bitching about how they can't carry on with their hobby.Do you do this in real life? I have a real close friend whose very dear to me. She's stuck currently with a lot of mental health issues, which is coupled with her best friend in real life dying. On top of that, college is tiresome for her and weighing her down. And do you really think the thing she wants to hear from me is "Oh, so do you think you know when we're going to start up our Roleplays again?"The answer is no.Honestly, I love roleplaying with her. I get so antsy and excited that she was the only person I'd trust with my roleplaying ideas. And that all stopped about three or four months ago. I was panicky because I didn't want to lose her as an RP Partner, but I shaped up. She didn't need me badgering her for a date to get better. She needed my support so that she could get better and then we could continue. Heck, she's still not ready - College work is still pretty tiresome for her even now. I don't think we'll even get to carry on our roleplay till her Christmas break.It's not unprofessional to not respond or reply about being inactive, so long as that person comes back to you at some point to explain what happened. Don't just immediately dismiss them as rude and dispassionate about their hobby because they lack the "professionalism" to have someone post for them. I know I don't open up to my family about roleplaying and I wouldn't want them going on my account to tell everyone I was unwell. Hell, I'd want my family by my side trying to get me better than having them post about how I was unfit to write for a while.And honestly, whether you know or don't know - You still need to overcome the obstacle of losing the important person from the roleplay for a while. Knowing the reasons why they are gone does not give you the magical "I-can-ignore-the-problem" card, you'll still need to keep it going regardless. Anyway, just throwing my two cents into this discussion. Roleplay is for fun, not a job and we shouldn't have to phone in and take our "sick days" as it were.EDIT: And just as an added bonus, if people get pissy when you yourself tell them you are unwell and want to take a few days off? Those are the kinds of people you should just walk away from. They aren't worth roleplaying if they won't support that you have a real life and real problems to attend to.

well said Kyrianei
