Aphrodite Pandemos Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 So there's an idea in my head to start up an episodic type superhero game set within the DC Animated Universe. The time would be after the finale of Justice League Unlimited. No Teen Titans. No Young Justice. No Brave and the Bold. Just the shows that count for the shared universe of Superman The Animated Series, Batman The Animated Series, Justice League Unlimited, Batman Beyond, Zeta Project and Static Shock... is that it? I think so. Let me know if I missed any. ,, Your characters are rookie leaguers. You will be dealing with the problem of the day and each other. As for character archetypes, i'm not all for full niche protection. Superman and Martian Manhunter have some similarities as do Batman and Blue Beetle. However they are not clones of each other. ,, Build notes: PL10, 150PP. You are stepping into the big leagues. I will not throw you into the deep end at first, but you are on the team that has dealt with world shaking problems. You will be sponsored by a main leaguer (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Flash, Hawkgirl, Martian Manhunter). I'd like for you to play new characters, but if you want to play a canon character that fits into the numbers, i'll mull it over depending on who you choose. ,, Any bites?

Sailor OOC Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I'm interested, but I am going to put my character through review first before submitting. As such it may take a little bit. I want to make sure my typical pit-falls don't occur with this character in terms of concept or design.The DCAU is a universe I don't wanna mess up a character for.

AceWildcard Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I am interested but when it comes to stuff from anime, cartoon, or video games I worry that my character will mess up or not be really on par with what I desire. I would need major help just to make sure i don't screw shit up. I liked the old stuff you mention. I seen quite a bit of all of them or a good bit. Love the cartoons.

Hyoseph Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Color me interested pending the answer to one question: Is this in addition to or replacing the D&D game being set up? ,, ~H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor OOC Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 From chat, Moira said she would juggle the two just fine.Also I should have a character ready for this soon, but I am going to start with a PM thread going to refine or repair any errors with the character or to fix certain pitfalls I fall into sometimes with characters.I do love this universe and I want to do this right.

Doctor Northlight Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 And by the way, Doctor Rachael Joyner, Doctor Northlight, at your service. *bows*Also, Sponsored by Green Lantern.So, who wants to help in my getting a character set up? At the very least take a look at the character in PM so that the character is going to work out as a good character in the group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Northlight Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I do have one question, is it alright if we post solo stories of our own from time to time outside of the core plot?I already got a origin story ready to roll in mind for Rachael.

Rubio OOC Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I showed my wife this site and she was intrigued, but she's not too familiar with system-based gaming. Would she be able to play a slightly older and wiser PL 10 Nightwing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I said official stats, but this is kinda silly. If you can fit him into a reasonable 150 point build, I won't say no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubio OOC Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I'll see what I can do. I say Nightwing because she loves Dick Grayson and she's more comfortable playing canon characters. How long after the finale of JLU are we talking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aphrodite Pandemos Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Something to think on, if you're a Batman related character. ,, http://www.dcauresource.com/timeline.php ,, This is about the time Tim Drake is fighting crime on his own.

Rush Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Okay I think I will try resurrecting Rush for this game. In this game he will be the son of Flash and Wonder Woman from an alternate universe, who got trapped in this one, but he will be sponsored into the JL by Batman.

Doctor Northlight Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Oh my... I can already see a tie-in with Doctor Northlight. As Rachael is tied with STARLabs, She might have picked up on you character's arrival or something. Of course expect questions about the technology of your universe.

Doctor Northlight Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Should we post our characters publicly in this thread? At least the statistics?I would do so rather easily. Shouldn't be too hard to C&P but I was just wondering if we should? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
