Mutants & Masterminds: Divine Intervention - Divine Intervention (M&M3e)

[Darrik Reynolds]

Definitely people with powers... the issue is that given the whole Olympian thing, it's not really appropriate to call it superheroes, the point is that we're choosing our own paths through life... and I'm thinking the public Olympian stuff ought to be subdued a bit setting wise.

We're the most powerful demigods ever, and the world is about to wake up and find out the Olympians are real. Perhaps this is WHY we're so powerful, this is the big strategy made by the Gods to restore their worship or something... kick away 'pretend' Christianity.

[Shosuro Miren]

While the amusement of convincing Puck to don tights and underwear on the outside is rather high, I tend to go more "people with powers" than "4-color comics".

[Sylvia Normanson]

Darrik: *shrugs* Sounds good... though Sly could care less at least about his dad. That and he's not interested in shaking the world's paradigm. That's what gives the world comfort when the nights are dark and the wind is cold. Us burning their world down (figuratively) to keep them warm seems to defeat the point.

[Justin OOC]

I could go through either way, though I lean more to people with powers.

[Aphrodite Pandemos]

Justin, he already made the change. Just didn't announce it here. We are spandex free

[Praxis]

Maybe you are. Praxis is still going to be rocking tights and spray-tan at least one night out of the week

[Shosuro Miren]

Puck prefers leather to spandex, but he's always up for experimenting.

[Sylvia Normanson]

I think I can dig the "People with Powers" moniker, but I prefer Metahuman. Demigod just suggests both some sort of superiority over humans and inferiority to our parents...

[Praxis]

Which is exactly what it is

[Sylvia Normanson]

I was jokingly splitting hairs.

Anyways, next topic?

[Aphrodite Pandemos]

Teams

Team 1: Moira, Praxis, Puck, Darrik, Kristen

Team 2: Sylvester, Maia, Heather, Marina, Kylie, Coraline.

Sand said these aren't set in stone.

[Kylie_OOC]

Are we going to have the opportunity to interact with the other team, fic-wise and such? Or is it going to be separate for awhile?

[Aphrodite Pandemos]

Hopefully we can fic together

Speaking of, how about we get some social action going on before the big reveal? Maybe a meeting? Some kind of event? The characters who are finished can join while we wait for the others.

I just don't want this momentum to die

[Praxis]

I definitely like this plan. The more opportunity we get to showcase who we are beyond a pedigree and a pile of stats, the better.

Besides, some of us get bored easy and I don't want this player base (or the connections we've formed with the characters) to wander off after the next big shiny thing.

[Shosuro Miren]

I'm fine with that. If we want, Puck can be throwing a party at his company's complex. People, food, alcohol, drugs (are at least pretty easy to find, if you know where to look/who to ask), a constantly changing holographic light show all over the campus.....

(This is pending ST approval, but I want it up there just for history)

As a note, Puck does not yet know about his heritage; he's the adopted son of the Greek and Japanese ambassadors to the US. He throws fantastic parties and is known for being a wild child and using his status as the child of two diplomats to keep himself out of legal trouble with his shenanigans.

[Sandman XI]

Puck, go for it.

[Sylvia Normanson]

One question on Puck's thread, does puck know everyone in the group here enough to send invites to everyone? I think I read in the OOC on the thread he did, but I wanted to make absolutely sure before jumping in.

[Shosuro Miren]

Just assume that you got an invite to the party however you might have gotten it. Puck doesn't necessarily know you personally, but his parties are huge and lots of people get invited.
