thejoshie Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 ++UPDATE 7-08++ Alright, taking character concepts and builds. If you're interested in joining, post here what your concept is, then send me a build by PM. Any questions can either be posted here, or PM'd. Also, we're going to need a school name and... UNIFORMS! Seeing if there is interest in a Marvel Heroic Game. The PC's represent five-six teens enrolled in an all woman boarding school. The school, while legit, is a cover for a government ran strike force used to deal with disasters, Meta Human disturbances, or major threats to human life. OC's though I will use Marvel Datafile's as archtypes (for those hindered by the inability to create an original character). Details will remain sketchy till I see how many are interested. Player cheat sheet- http://nerdnyc.com/t...Cheat-Sheet.pdf Questions about game: Age of PC's? (Currently Late Teen to early-adult) Use of Tropes? (Five Man Band) Tone? (Animeish-Comic Book ((Think Comic Book written Manga Style))) Is the School 'Powers Only'? (If not, then street level skill monkey builds are allowed) Is the School secretly house meta's? (As in, no one in the general populace know that the students are metas) Edit 7/6 If any of you either have a concept built, or have a concept idea but don't know how to build it, feel free to PM me. I'm close to moving this to Staging, just waiting for others to either answer the questions or present new ones for us to discuss. So far, looks to be late Teen, Five Man Band Trope (will explain in staging), Gritty tone, Majority stating powers only, and the fact that the school housing Meta's is a fact kept secret. Any more questions?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I am just looking at this again, after we talked about it in chat. I am tentatively interested in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maia Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I'd be interested, though I'm gonna need the rule book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejoshie Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 I'd be interested, though I'm gonna need the rule book There are 'cheat sheets' that were used in gaming conventions that can be used to help those without the full rule. The only thing you'd be missing out on is the Marvel Datafiles that you scribe off of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thejoshie Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 Seeing that I have some interests, I added some questions in the op for you folks to think on. Give me your opinions so I know what yo're comfortable with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Age of PC's: Late teens sound good. Use of Tropes? (Five Man Band) Why not? Tone? Something comic-booky. Is the School 'Powers Only'? I think we could allow some capable non-powered individuals to be at the school. Is the School secretly house meta's? (As in, no one in the general populace know that the students are metas) Probably, government agencies like to hide their assets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aphrodite Pandemos Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Age: Post high school, late teens. Tropes: As long as it's not overbearing. Tone: greyscale leaning towards dark. I need something gritty! Powers Only: Yeah. I like the X-Men feel of "You're different than others" and "You're trying to help them despite them hating you" Secret: Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin OOC Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Age of PC's? (17-18) Use of Tropes? (Five Man Band) Yeah, would probably happen anyway Tone? All For a good Manga feel, though I like a good comicbook feel. Is the School 'Powers Only'? Yes Is the School secretly house meta's?Super top eyes only mega classified secret.

Mary Masters Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Talking to Joshie in chat. Getting I's dotted and T's crossed. Done. So, what is your definition of Gritty? Some people's grit definition is somewhat varying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 My suggestion: Waterton Academy, named after a wealthy donor, who happens to be linked to the government project privately, so the purpose of the school can be plausibly disguised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor OOC Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Location? No one suspects the Midwest. May I suggest somewhere close to the Twin Cities in Minnesota? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor OOC Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 On further review of the game system (by reading the book) and what is going to be required of me in terms of availability, I am going to have to decline this game. I don't think that anyone can wait a whole week for me to roll out responses or what not. Just after reviewing the system now that I've sat down with it, I realized easy-to-build doesn't equate easy-to-run in a PbP environment. I'm sorry, this just isn't a fit for me. I hope everyone else though has a good time with this. Keep in mind there is no issues with this that I have outside of availability and rules.

thejoshie Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 Just a heads up that yes, I'm still planning on running this game. I'm just taking it slow since we currently only have two PC's. Jeremy and Moira, you two do not have to worry about an sort of abandonment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
