FINALLY I HAVE COME BACK TO THE NATIONSTATES FORUMS!!!

First off I am very glad to back and I am jump right into this by bringing back the NJLU with a brand new RPG. Right now I am still determining the new title of the next story, but now is the time for people to start signing up for their various spots. I sent 10 invitations and there are 12 spots in this RPG. I need SUPERHEROES, VIGILANTES, and VILLAINS! I can't wait for this RPG to commence. The expected date for this thread to begin is Friday, June 15, 2007.

This go around there are a couple of strict rules that must be followed in order to RP.

1. NO ARGUING WHATSOEVER! If anybody has a problem with someone send me a telegram and I will mediate the situation.

2. NO EXCESSIVE SPAMMING!

3. NO GODMODDING! There will be no OMINO/GOKU type characters. I am going to tone down all of my characters and I expect for you all to do the same.

4. NO TAGGING! Try to keep all tagging to a minimum. If you have to do it please state why you're going to do it.

5. FOLLOW THE CHARACTER TEMPLATE WHEN MAKING A CHARACTER!

6. PAY ATTENTION TO THE PREVIOUS POSTS!

7. HAVE FUN AND GET ALONG WITH EACH OTHER! If you cannot communicate and have fun with people this may not be for you!

Okay now that is done I can display the new character template. If you don't use this template your character will not be approved to be used in this thread. Also to my VETERAN SUPERHERO RPer's I would prefer that you didn't use your characters from the old thread. I want everyone to have a least one new character. Some of the old guys will make a reappearance, but the users of these characters will know when this will happen.

THE CHARACTER TEMPLATE

The template is simple and easy to fill in. I am accepting new characters as of now. New people are welcome, but my veterans have a guaranteed spot.

The story is going to involve someone related to my old character the Phantom Haze. He is now discovering his powers. I would like for most of the characters to be developing their powers with one or two superheroes from the other NJLU threads sorta acting as a mentor or guide to them. The villians will probably be full-powered. I am still developing my characters.

@Theao- I had to make a puppet account because for some reason my other account [NS]Wooshaba won't allow me to post anymore. It is so stupid and the mods nor the admins can do anything about it. This is what they told me to do.

@Blastit- No problem, personal life comes before the threads.

@Everyone- I will probably have my characters up by Sunday.

@Tanaara- More information is going to provided each time I post. Some of the members of the RP can also fill you in by giving you some background.

I'm new here, so I feel a little awkward posting this, but I'll give it a shot.

Real Name: Brandon Stephel
Alias: The Alchemist
Age: 20
Height: 5' 10'
Weight: 170

Appearance: Brown/red hair, golden eyes, athletic build
Out of costume: Usually just a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. In winter, a hooded sweatshirt is common too.
At work/school: A maroon apron and button-up shirt at Master's coffee shop (his job), and usually something with the school's logo on it and a maroon backpack for college
In Costume: (no professional costume as of yet) White long-sleeve shirt with black stripes at chest and forearms, black jeans with rips to show the white fibers underneath (both show off athletic build), black hiking shoes, black Mechanix brand gloves and the typical thin strip of black cloth over the eyes
Symbol: Black in color, circle with interlocking squares and circles inside, symmetrical, center has a cross with a snake winding around it. Found on both shoulders of the costume.

Personality: Extremely cocky, but caring, respectful, and usually on a caffeine high. Vigilante.

Abilities and/or Powers:Alchemy (amplified by both his symbol and the philosophers' stone/catalyst) (still fairly weak, it's a new science to him). Simple sphere barriers. Energy Channeling (instead of a barrier he can amplify his strength with a weapon, but he sees that there may be other possibilities with this in the future, also fairly new). Energy abilities are enhanced when afraid, but alchemy suffers.

Weakness(es): The 'Red Stone', chronic migraines (which can be brought on by use of the energy abilities), barriers can stop a bullet, but not gasses.

Background: He grew up the youngest of five children, so he's pretty much immune to insults. Brandon's life was in a dwindling town of less than 3000 until he moved to the city to attend a university. He graduated high school with a 3.99 GPA which is why he was asked in his junior year to run a tutoring class. It was a class of sophomores and that's where he met his girlfriend, who now attends college across the state, getting grades almost as good as his. He discovered his power to project a barrier in fifth grade as the constant subject of a bully. He discovered alchemy soon after graduating and has since become obsessed.

Hmmm.... lets see....

Real Name: Chandra Von Henkelson
Alias: Hearthcrafter
Age: 22
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 123 lbs
Appearance: Athletic.
Personality: caring, yet solitary. a mite on the playful side
Abilities and/or Powers:
Hearthcrafting
the ability to create any edible item in any shape or form. She can alter the density, tensile strength, size and shape of said food. the items can be cooked or uncooked, and ranging in temp from frozen to boiling hot.

Weakness(es): limited to Human consumption. so even tho a tin can is "edible" to a goat, it's beyond her.

she cannot create anything living. Even tho some cultures eat live critters (Edit: this includes seeds. she can make a watermellon, complete with seeds, but the seeds won't germinate. same for other veggies. a potato will be a potato and won't sprout, even tho atomic structure wise, it's a potato.)

Anything she creates appears in her hands or in her immediate (read 1 foot max) from her presence. so no summoning a banana creame pie to appear above someone's head... she has to toss it. :p

Her right hip and leg still suffer from bouts of weakness and muscle fatigue. over extending herself will cause her hip and leg to fail... unable to support her weight.

Background: Chandra was an Olympic class gymnast. However her dreams of Olympic gold was dashed when she pushed an old woman out of the path of a speeding car, having the car strike her instead. while the old woman was relatively unharmed, she suffered a shattered hip and leg... ending her Olympic dreams.

Months in the hospital and intensive therapy regained the use of her legs and it was at her last night in the hospital, that she received a most unusual visitor.

A middle aged man came in with some incense. He claimed that her act of kindness warrented that a rewarded be given. With that, he lit the sweet smelling incense and allowed it to fill the room, causing her to fall asleep.

*The story will pick up from here.*

Real Name: Rio Nevada (http://www.atddm.com/rio2.htm)

Alias: None at the moment

Age: 27

Height: 5'9"

Weight: 140

Appearance: fair skinned, platinum blonde hair, silvery violet eyes, well built

Personality: currently rather bitter and cynical, somewhat arrogant and not quick to trust.

Abilities and/or Powers: Psionic - Telekensis, Teleportation, Telepathy, Empathy
Weakness(es):Tires some what easily - though is in good physical condition, needs more than 'normal' caloric intake, bordeerline alcoholic
Background: A foundling, she was raised in a government crèche in Nuevo Ni-Hongo. Her abilities began manifesting themselves during puberty. Because of her high ratings she received more than the standard training, in handling her newly developing abilities in secondary school. Like all 'Goan’s she did the first two years of required federal service right out of' Secondary School, which included the Citizenship Requirement which was the equivalent of US Army basictraining.

Afterwards Rio was accepted into the Ni- Hero Academy, Nuevo Ni-Hongo's
prestigious university for the training of Super Heroes. Rio found that she loved being a Super Hero, helping people, using her abilities openly, getting paid very well to use them, and especially the near adulation she received from the public. She even had her own fan club, even if it was small as of yet...

Then every thing changed..

Super Heroes had been accepted, and feted, for their public service, their heroics, but a well organized and massively funded campaign against Ni-Hongo's Heroes changed that. Public attitudes altered almost over night, and the Heroes found themselves outlawed and hunted. Many Heroes were killed, others hid, some including Rio, fled. That was four years ago, and since then things have not gone been easy for her. She had a fiancé when the winds of favor changed, but he tried to turn her in for the reward, so she's not hot on relationships at the moment.

Rio can no more not be a hero than she cannot breathe. However she is currently bitter and drifting aimlessly. She learned that when push came to shove she'd rather lie, cheat, steal, and generally do what ever it took to survive - though she hasn't killed any one but criminals, and has tried to limit her hurting others to the minimum necessary..

This looks pretty interesting. I'll try and post a character later today.

Also, you said that you needed superheroes, vigilantes, and villains. Is it alright for my character to be a selfish law-abiding person who doesn't want to fight crime, help people, or commit crimes?

I'd like to use a character I created a while back, although he's only been in one RP and is based from a real world scenario, but that can be easily merged into the NS universe.

Real Name: Ed Romano
Alias: None as of yet
Age: 32
Height: 190cm
Weight: 86kg
Appearance: Vibrant green eyes and short brown hair. Ed would be considered a reasonably good looking guy that keeps regularly active and thus possesses a well toned body.

Personality: Naturally a friendly person, life experience has taught him to be a little cautious at the best of times, but that does not prevent him from being outgoing when he feels comfortable. Ed is somewhat conflicted about his abilities, on one hand he feels he has great potential to help people, on the other, he's ashamed of them.

Abilities and/or Powers: Elementalism. The power to create and control the four natural elements; fire, air, earth and water. This ability is very open ended and can be used in a number of obscure manners, depending upon Ed's imagination.

Weakness(es): It should be noted that Ed can be somewhat reluctant to use his powers as they were the cause of his parents' death, this is particularly the case with fire. Besides this psychological issue, Ed will become quite physically drained after extensive use of his powers, especially in great magnitudes. Besides his elemental gifts, Ed is completely normal and thus vulnerable to all physical ailments.

Background: Ed was born and raised in Australia, despite his parents being Russian. With little work to be found in Russia and some family over in Australia, they decided to relocate in the hope of establishing a better life.

For many years everything was perfect for the Romano family. Both Ed's parents found good, stable employment and Ed made a name for himself as a young, rising sportsman, especially in athletics.

Unfortunately this didn't last as long as any of them would have liked it to. To this day Ed doesn't know what happened to him, yet several days after his twentieth birthday, Ed's powers awoke.

Fire was the first of them to arise. A flame so intense it took minutes to devour Ed's home, killing both his parents before they even fully comprehended what was happening. Several days later he awoke in a hospital, completely unharmed by the fire and yet unaware of the events he unintentionally caused.

Authorities found nothing suspicious about the fire and as Ed was legally an adult, he was left to fend for himself. Insurance from the house and his parent's deaths provided him with enough money to live reasonably for a while. It didn't take Ed long to realise he had been the cause of the fire, his other powers awakening soon enough.

And so the young man began a nomad's life. Working when he needed to, stealing when he needed to and generally drifting through life. To date he hasn't forgiven himself for what he did and is forever reluctant to use his fire abilities unless under extreme pressure or emotionally stressed.

Over the years Ed has been learning to control his powers, refining his skills and understanding his abilities better. There will always be more for him to learn but no one could accuse him of being inept with the elements.

Despite being gifted in such an unnatural manner, Ed also maintains an exceptional level of fitness and strength, the drills of his athlete days still firmly planted within him. Due to this he is a formidable opponent in most physical conflicts, employing the use of his abilities or not.

I know he's had quite a few years experience with his powers, so if that's a problem then I can edit it a bit.

@Assington- Unfortunately your character is very similar to a former character of these RP's named Omino. It is not your fault, but I really don't want characters similar to him in the RP. If you take away the abilities of light and shadow then he will be fine. Also this RP is set in the year 3000. I don't think people would be fleeing from Protestant/ Catholic conflicts in Ireland around the end of the 2000's so can you change that please. As soon as you change those things your character will definitely be approved.

@JuNii- Your character is approved. Very good and very unique!

@Tanaara- Good character. Approved.

@ Breitenburg- Waiting for your background but other than that it is good.

============================================================

Okay everyone this is the basic storyline.

After the conflict between the angels and Omino and a bunch of other heroes and villians in the last RPG the angels have all ascended to heaven never to be seen again. Omino was killed in the fight and Haze was severely injured.

After the fight the public turned its back on all of superheroes from around the world. Los Angelos had nearly been destroyed by Sacer and the Phantom Haze has been labeled as a tyrant. The NJLU disbanded and Phantom Haze disappeared. Now new beings with unique abilities are starting to rise up and the United States government has launched Operation: Overdrive, a campaign that seeks to capture growing superbeings and transform them into soldiers for the military. My character, a young man named Lucas Coren is now being targeted by the government because he shows signs of "special" abilities. Lucas just wants to be a normal kid.

This is a story of growing. Along this RP I expect for Lucas to gain friends in his fight against the tyrannical controlling government, rivals in other groups that seek similar goals for different purposes, and enemies in other superbeings. The goal of this is to find out who is behind the government's plans and to rebuild the NJLU. I'll post my character bio for Lucas here later on today.

A Bio on my char: Adam grew up in LA, and even from an early childhood he disliked it. Adam read the works of writers like Albert Camus and Carl Jung, and always had an interest in psychology. He saw the citizens of LA as absurd and devoid of meaning. When he discovered his powers at a young age, he worked diligently to master them. Now an adult, he teaches literature and psychology in a private school, where he finds the uninterested students more proof of LA's uselessness. With his powers, he plans to one day either change LA, or destroy it. When Sacer almost destroyed the city he was prepared to help, but was stopped by the angels sheer power. Now he waits to attack the weakened city in anyway he can, which he is still attempting to figure out.

My hero should be up tonight.

Hope this is okay.

Real Name: Nicholai "Nicky" Makovsky
Alias: Omega (Last letter of the Greek alphabet)
Age: 26
Height: 6' 2"
Weight: 123 lbs
Appearance: Prone to wearing a black, Kevlar cat suit. His straight, black hair flows down to the top of his shoulders. His eyes are strangely warped, as they are amber in colour. His pupils are thin and sharp, and the blood vessels around his eyes are brown and inflamed. He hides this distinguishing feature via black sunglasses, which he removes when he needs to use his powers. He has a deathly-pale complexion, which appears in sharp contrast to his dark attire.
Personality: Egotistical and cruel; Nicholai is obsessed with beauty. He regards the world as 'ugly', and believes that 'the filth must be cleansed, and from its ashes a new civilisation shall begin'. Nicholai has also developed mental problems, with a new 'personality' building in his subconscious, bordering on insanity and schizophrenia. This strange personality appears to be a mixture between his dead sister and his homosexuality. While his new persona is merely a whisper in his head, it has had a profound change on Nicholai, resulting in minor tranvestitism and an increased attraction to men.
Abilities and/or Powers: Nicholai is an excellent marksman, but prefers smaller handguns to rifles. He also has a personal Beretta 92FS, which never leaves his side. Nicholai only possesses one power; the ability to change the state of any material, i.e. solids to liquids, liquids to gasses, and vice-versa.
Weakness: Using his powers causes an immense mental and physical strain on Nicholai. Overusing can result in side effects ranging from black outs to deliriousness. When he reaches the state, his alter-ego can soemtime stake control. As if to add insult to injury, Nicholai does not have a large amount of control over his powers. He also finds it difficult to use his abilities on live creatures.
Background: Nicholai was only 7 when his family immigrated to America. Finding his new residence to be a rough ghetto, Nicholai immediately barred himself from the outside world, leaving his home only to go to school. However, this all changed after one night. His parents, along with his sister, had left to go to the supermarket. Nicholai, of course, refused to come. Unfortunately, his entire family was knocked down by a rogue car. His parents had died instantly, his sister later in hospital. Nicholai was put into foster care. However, Nicholai hated his new home more than the ghetto, and frequently tried to escape. One day, his rage turned to raw power. While being restrained, Nicholai's strange ability was unearthed. His new eyes stared at the social security officer, who collapsed from shock when the hand he had placed on Nicholai's shoulder was liquidised. Nicholai escaped, and spent the next years on the street, honing his abilities and working for local gangs. Eventually, when he felt his powers had reached an acceptable level, he set out on his mission; to cleanse the entire world, in a genocidial purge. Starting with LA.

Real Name: Markus Alveron

Alias: None

Age: 16

Height: 5'6"

Weight: 154 lb

Appearance: Mark has dark red eyes and he has short black hair. He has an
athletic build, obtained from years of playing sports. He generally wears blue jeans and a green T-shirt.

Personality: Markus is a very nice person generally. He is very paranoid about his abilities. He is scared of what his friends and family will say or do when they find out about them. He tries to make sure that nobody ever discovers his abilities. Markus's goal in life is to simply find a way to either get rid of his powers, or find some way to control them.

Abilities and/or Powers: Markus has the ability to absorb, store, and release thermal energy. He can then release the heat all at once in the form of waves of heat emanating from his body. If he concentrates hard enough, he can also release the energy in the form of a beam from his hands. Markus is also very resistant to heat because of his ability. Markus's body can use the thermal energy stored inside it as a substitute source of energy and thus he never gets tired.

Weakness(es): Markus's abilities are always stuck active unless Markus actively suppresses them. However, he can only effectively suppress the release of the thermal energy. He can only weaken the absorption of energy, and only well enough so people don't wonder why everytime he is near a stove, the food ends up taking three times as long to cook, or why the swimming pool gets colder everytime Markus is swimming. Markus can lose control of his abilities easily when he loses his concentration or when he gets too emotional. When this happens, he can no longer effectively control his abilities and all the heat that is stored inside of him starts pouring out of him in large waves of heat, until he can regain control of himself.

Because Markus's body has adapted itself to extremely high temperatures, whenever it is cold around him, such as when it snows or rains, or when it is night, his body will prevent him from any use of his powers, and channel everything into keeping his body temperature at a ridiculously high level, effectively making him a regular human. If his body is unable to keep his body at a high enough temperature, whether due to not enough stored thermal energy, or because Markus is just in too cold of a location, Markus will collapse, get dangerously sick, and can die if he is left in the cold long enough.

When Markus goes to sleep, he can not control himself, and often ends up losing control of his abilities. As such, he doesn't go to sleep for he doesn't want to risk melting things around him or setting fire to flammable objects.

In order to avoid the mental problems associated with lack of sleep, every two weeks or so, Markus finds an abandoned area, far away from any civilization, and sleeps for two or three days straight. During this period his powers go haywire, destroying everything within a fifty meter radius around him. Although this helps him offset the more serious problems, Markus still suffers from mental fatigue, occasional fits of rage, and sometimes hallucinates.

Background: Markus was born and raised in California, in a city near LA. His powers first began to develop during puberty. One day, Markus woke up and his parents noted that he had an immense fever. He went to the hospital with a temperature of 150°. The doctors were shocked and amazed that Markus had such a high temperature, but otherwise seemed perfectly fine. Indeed they found that he seemed to have an inexhaustible amount of energy. They finally released him a week later when they were unable to find anything wrong with him.

Excited by Markus's large amount of energy, Markus's father convinced him to get into sports. Markus agreed, and by the time he entered high school, he was playing six sports. At that time, Markus's ability to release heat energy showed itself. One day while swimming for fun with some friends, his high emotions caused his body to start releasing large amounts of heat that ended up evaporating almost all the water in the pool. Markus subconsciously knew that he was causing it, and by sheer force of will managed to stop the heat from being released. That day, when Markus looked around at all the frightened faces around him, he realized that telling people about his powers wouldn't do him any good.

not knowing the original storyline, what would the 'average joe' know?

The average Joe would basically know that the NJLU was partially responsible for the destruction of major world cities and the lost of faith in superpowered beings. Also they would know about the increasing government sanctions being put on them by the world governments. Most of the superheroes would have some knowledge of the major superheroes of the NJLU like the Phantom Haze, Morph, Omino and Sacer. The villians would know of Enertro and Diaphanous. If you want bios of them just ask and I will post links here.
===========================================================

@DN: The DC Comics world and the NationStates World are two different realms. You would have to explain how the DN native mysteriously ended up in the DC Comics world.

@Assington: Sounds good. Approved.
@Breitenburg: Approved
@Andalina: Your weaknesses is sorta off. I'm not too sure about it. I understand the lack of control because that is how of the characters are going to be in this thread. Specify a better weakness and you will be approved.

The average Joe would basically know that the NJLU was partially responsible for the destruction of major world cities and the lost of faith in superpowered beings. Also they would know about the increasing government sanctions being put on them by the world governments. Most of the superheroes would have some knowledge of the major superheroes of the NJLU like the Phantom Haze, Morph, Omino and Sacer. The villians would know of Enertro and Diaphanous. If you want bios of them just ask and I will post links here.kewl... maybe links not necessary... since rumors and tall tales would stretch the truth to the point that the average joe won't know the truth... but knowing the atmosphere would make my storytelling easier. ;)

AS OF THIS TIME I AM NO LONGER TAKING SUBMISSIONS OF NEW CHARACTERS FROM PEOPLE NEW TO THE SUPERHERO THREADS. THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO CAN POST CHARACTERS ARE MYSELF, DRACONIS NIGHTCRAWLIS, BREIGHTENBURG, LUPORUM, BLASTIT EMPIRE, HYPERSLACKOVICZANIA, DMG, AND KULIKOVO. :eek: HYPE's HERE! >.> <.<

Hey Woosh, could you please look at the new weakness I gave my character and decide if it's acceptable or not?

Because Markus's body has adapted itself to extremely high temperatures, whenever it is cold around him, such as when it snows or rains, or when it is night, his body will prevent him from any use of his powers, and channel everything into keeping his body temperature at a ridiculously high level, effectively making him a regular human. If his body is unable to keep his body at a high enough temperature, whether due to not enough stored thermal energy, or because Markus is just in too cold of a location, Markus will collapse, get dangerously sick, and can die if he is left in the cold long enough.

Real Name: Haruka (Hari) Kyle
Alias: WILDSIDE
Age:19
Height:5'9"
Weight: 130
Personality: cattish... easily distracted. sometimes seems aloft, other times... playful.
Abilities and/or Powers:
Shapeshifting - Last of the Natural WereTigers
includes Hightened senses, healing, tracking ability, porportional strength, Low Light Vision, exceptional balance, Situational awareness.
her three forms...
1st: Human female.
2nd: Human/Tiger hybrid.
3rd: Tiger

Weakness(es):Catnip. extra-susceptable to drugs. MPD, Her "wild" side has a personailty of it's own and... well that will be shown.
Equipment: RICH! Multi-billionairess.

Background:an orphin, Haruka, a Japanese born child was adopted by two American parents and grew up American. However, when puberty hit, she found herself starting to behave like a cat (jittery, nervous around strangers, starting to see/hear/smell things others can't.)

She lost her parents when their private plane crashed in the jungles of Africa. while search parties were looking for them, she shifted for the first time and hunted as a Tiger/woman hybrid. Horrified at what she turned into, she avoided the rescuers searching for her (they found the bodies of her parents at the wreakage.) After several months trying to come to grips with what she had become, she allowed herself to be found and rejoined society. however, now that the cat has been let out of the bag, it won't go quietly back inside.

Being that she is back among civilization, she has suppressed her "Wild Side" however, she's noticing that the beast within wants out and now she must find a way to cope with it.

Points of interest, but things not necessarily known to her.
Catnip is a narcotic to her. she does loose complete control of her animal side and can kill in her mad frenzy. She is also susceptable to anesthetics as well as Tranqs and other drugs.
also, should her human side be rendered unconcious (drugged, anesthetic, sleeping) her cat side takes over. so often times, while she's sleeping, her body is exploring her house, sharpening her nails (claws) on fabrics and... well, I'll leave the rest to your imagination. if both sides are rendered unconcious (strong tranq) she will revert to human form. unfortunatly, that does mean she ends up unclothed. ;)

She does have a higher rate of recovery, Healing but no regenration.

Note: as a Natrual Lycanthrope, she cannot infect anyone with lycanthropy... tho she doesn't know that and is constantly afraid that someone will be infected.

her closest companions is Michael, her family's butler/driver, Emily, his daughter (Hari's age and best friend also being trained to be her Maid/Personal Assistant) and Yvette, the cook and Michael's wife.

Her parents died shortly after her birth and she was put up for adoption. shortly thereafter, the normally bookish girl started showing an interest in the athletics. taking Gymnastics as well as some forms of martial arts. The fatal plane trip was a Graduation Celebration she was taking with her family.

Real Name: Julian Michael Jeous
Alias: Shield / Sunder
Age: 17
Height: 5'6"
Weight: Average, slightly on the light side.
Appearance: Generally average 17 year old, very pale green eyes, black hair with white stripe running length(natural/dye resistant), darker shaded clothing(blues, greens, reds, blacks, and grey)
Personality: Introverted, somewhat asocial, cautious(JMJ/Shield) / Confident bordering on arrogant, agressive, cruel, self-possessed(Sunder)
Abilities and/or Powers: Force-field, wide connections of cyber/pen pals, good with computers
Shield can generate one sufficiant to cover entire body, use to enhance strength/speed to be able to press 500 lb. and about 10% faster than olympic(gold) records(faster the speed, greater the fatigue), can generate weapon(generally melee-esq) at expense of defence
Sunder can generate field four times body area, enhance strength/speed to 2 tons/600% olympic speeds(with significantly less fatigue), greater array/ability to use weapons(multiple/ranged), Knows what happens when Julian/Shield is dominant
Weakness(es): Little experiance in fighting, hemophobic, power level less suited for combat, Doesn't know of Sunder or his actions(Shield) / Little use for defence, little stratigic foresight(Sunder)
Background: An average 'nerd', some time sortly after puberty Julian developed a white streak in an otherwise black head of hair. This, as well as somewhat questionable hygine, quickly lead to him being called things like skunk-boy by the jocks and popular kids.

At the age of sixteen, just shy of his seventeenth, he got hit by a runaway car. Contrary to all logic, he survived with only minor scratches, the car however wasn't so lucky and looked like it had run into a telephone pole. Remaining at home for a couple days, after pleading sick, he realized that he could generate a force-field of limited size. However the incident that caused him to first manifest his force-field also unlocked all the bottled rage, hate and blood-lust that had been pent up by being picked upon. This had generated an alternate personality, Sunder. Realizing that he could help people, to an extent, Julian adopted the persona of Shield, little realizing that there existed a much more sinister entity within.

With the general crack-down and goverment interest in super heros, much of the time he uses his abilities for minor things such as tripping criminals. He's received 'tips' from one of his more wing-nutty friends that the goverment may be interested in him, as his abilities could be used to protect important or threatened goverment officials. However, he doesn't think it could happen to him.

Alright, been meaning to retry this type of hero concept, so I finally got a chance, here goes:

Name: Roger Markus Hartigan
Alias: Dragon Blood
Age: now 26, though becoming less and less of an issue
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 245 lbs.
Hair: Short, black
Eyes: transient, fading from green on the outside to blue to purple on the inside

Personality: Quick witted, but steady emotionally, somewhat somber due to power development

Skills: trained pilot, amateur actor during college, impressive knowledge of chemical and biological pathogenic agents, mastery of unarmed and melee weapon combat

Abilities: Highly advanced healing agent, shows no signs of visible aging past physical prime, able to regenerate entire limbs within hours of loss. Bones show increased uptake of titanium, and incorporation by osteoplasts into the bone matrix structure, increasing skeletal density and strength. Overall strength improved to 750 lb chest press, speed approximately 140% of record setting athletes. Due to healing agent, endurance levels can sustain 90% maximum output for periods of over two hours. Rapid immuno-response to foreign matter, effectively immunized against any pathogen within 48 hours of exposure. Vision hearing, and reflexes approximately three times that of a normal human, touch, taste, and smell 50% higher than normal human sensitivity. His mental shielding must be actively lowered when telepaths try to make contact.

Weaknesses: Mental shields make his psionic signature so pronounced that even low level psychics can sense him, essentially eliminating any stealth attacks. Increased sound sensitivity makes ultra-sonic frequencies anywhere from noticeable to debilitatingly painful. Additionally, those debilitating sonic frequencies cause his mental shields to collapse, leaving him defenseless against telepathic attack. Healing agent not confirmed against possiblity of decapitation, incineration, or oblideration. Anaesthetics ineffective, and the healing response feels as if the injury is repeating itself, albeit slowly. Titanium in bones strong enough set off metal detectors, so he carries a medical card that states he has had multiple structure pins set in after a motorcycle accident. Highly susceptible to magnetic manipulators.

Bio: Roger was a skilled high school geek, athletic enough to have played flag football, but not having the dedication for full contact football. He trained in the martial arts, and became a licensed pilot for non-commercial flights, a skill he used on his prom dates when flying his then-current girlfriend out for cross-state dinner before the dance.

When in college, Roger studied biology and chemistry, earning a Ph.D. in bioengineering. He specializes in pathogenic agents, and has been trying to determine if it was some accidental but unrecognized contaminant that changed him. Regardless of the source, while on his motorcycle, traveling to his father's house one evening, he crashed, only to wake up, hours later, able to walk, and, whith his right arm on the ground. It went from finger tip to shoulder, and bore Roger's watch and shirt sleeve, while he had a naked, fully formed arm still attached and fully ambulatory. He called his father, and after ensuring that his son was alright, Roger's father, a physician, discovered that it was indeed Roger's arm that had lain in the street. As the weeks progressed, Roger found his body becoming more enhanced than it had ever been before.

Returning to his lab, Roger has been with the CDC, as an analyst working on determining points of outbreak and migration for epidemics. Private tests, some done in conjunction with his father, have demonstrated his own immune system enhancement, and his father first identified the osteoplastic action of the titanium consumption when a piece of marrow corrroded a handling tray.

Personal Hobbies: Does time as an underground cage fighter for both the thrill and to keep in shape. Fights as the "White Dragon" since "The Caucasian Bruce Lee" was too long for the announcer to remember.

@KAtG: Good character. Very strong. I really don't expect for him to develop any new powers as this carries along, okay?

Woosh: he won't develop anything new, ever. And the healing factor takes hours to fully regenerate limbs. About three or four, so he can still be incapacitated for extended periods of time. The factor can quicken, and that might be the only thing happens as far as power development goes, but he's got to rely on his combat skills to do anything. And even that's not a given.

Please, I beg you, NOT Columbus. It's not diverse. And isn't the Bat Cave located in the northern suburbs of Gotham City? At least, I think that's how the DC Community supposedly works, though I could be a wee bit off. Just let me do a google search on "Wayne, Bruce" to be sure.

Anyways, again, NOT Columbus. If we all have to do the same city, why not Vegas? Or Metropolis? Either the DC city of legend (this being DC continuity) or the JuNii way (Metropolis II? New Metropolis?) is fine. As is Miami (Drug runners for practicing) or Nowheresburgh, Kansas. Or Denver. Nobody's ever bothered to do Denver! It's a mile high, has mountains, plains off to the east, skiing, a huge airport, and decent flying vistas for the aeronautically enabled (or licensed pilots). I Vote Denver!! :D

Apparently it lies beneath Wayne Manor, the family home of billionaire Bruce Wayne, and thus at an unspecified point accessing the Atlantic Coast. Coincidentally, Wayne is currently listed by Forbes as the Seventh Richest Fictional Person in the world (Santa's net worth of "Infinite" being discluded due to pressing evidence of existence). Article stating net worth for the 2006 year here (http://www.forbes.com/2006/11/20/bruce-wayne-money-tech-media_cx_mh_06fict15_batman.html).

Please, I beg you, NOT Columbus. It's not diverse. And isn't the Bat Cave located in the northern suburbs of Gotham City? At least, I think that's how the DC Community supposedly works, though I could be a wee bit off. Just let me do a google search on "Wayne, Bruce" to be sure.

Anyways, again, NOT Columbus. If we all have to do the same city, why not Vegas? Or Metropolis? Either the DC city of legend (this being DC continuity) or the JuNii way (Metropolis II? New Metropolis?) is fine. As is Miami (Drug runners for practicing) or Nowheresburgh, Kansas. Or Denver. Nobody's ever bothered to do Denver! It's a mile high, has mountains, plains off to the east, skiing, a huge airport, and decent flying vistas for the aeronautically enabled (or licensed pilots). I Vote Denver!! :D

I'm not talking about BATMANS Batcave, I'm talking about Shebats Bat Cave!
They are not the same, beyond that Columbus was just a suggestion, so there is NO reason to get your panties in a bunch. But the Hocking Hills is where Shebats Cave is going to be regardless of what City is agreed upon. Oh and for the record Gotham City is on an East Coast Island south of New York.

A) I don't have panties. They are, despite the arguments made by John Tucker in the movie John Tucker Must Die, rather constrictive of a man's best friend. I explained this to my girlfriend, after she made me watch that chick-flick, but she still wants me to try a J. Edgar Hoover for her. For the last time, NO!!!

B) Sorry about the above, but things have been a little hectic in my life right now.

C) But The Batcave is in Gotham, and if you read the post right after, I specify that is indeed on the Atlantic. DC Comics, in a rush to not get various New Jersey cities to sue it, never specifies latitude and longitude, but we all know where to find it. Already stated and referenced. :)

D) Are we going to have to refer to this one as Batcave II, or just as SheBat's batcave and remember the grammatical differentiation between SheBat's batcave and the Batcave? Cause just having to rely on a definite article and a capitalized "B" for the Batman reference is going to be annoying in the typing.

While I agree that the locales of Gotham and Metropolis would make excellent opportunities for our characters, Should it really be set in 3000 A.D? I mean, 1,000 years is a long time, and wouldn't we probably be space-faring by then? Besides, I thought Haze's presence necessitated a more proximal temporal location. Unless he's immortal.

Anyways, just thought I'd raise that issue while we could do something about it. And to prove that I don't just point out problems, I'd also reccomend that, based on the ages of the various NPC's and characters from previous NJLU threads, it be anywhere from 2050 to 2100. But that's a suggestion only.

At the moment, the physical change is so minor that it is unlikely even Julian's mother would recognise it.

Also a datum that I had forgotten to include, into his profile, has been. Namely that while Julian knows what he does as Shield(and vice-versa), however while Julian/Shield doesn't know what he does as Sunder, Sunder knows everything that happens as Julian/Shield.

This is DC Comics. Hence, as Woosh stated earlier, we'll be keeping with Metropolis and Gotham City. The ones of (slightly modified) comics history that we all know and love. Plus it saves us the trouble of dealing with new cities.

Oh, and I'm changing the date. Instead of the year 3000, it'll be sometime in the proximal future, 2050 to 2100. MT and PMT of the comic book world as it is currently published.

As far as Gotham's locale, it's somewhere on the Jersey shore, though never really specified. Metropolis is believed to be in Delaware or Maryland, somewhat closer to the capital. And warmer.

Depending on the NPC's Woosh wants me to run, maybe. But most of them are at the centennial mark, or simply dead, and the long lived heroes (Superman, Captain Marvel) have gone into a type of retirement/seclusion. And since NJLU III had a big fight wherein many heroes were leveled by Omino's death blast, well, we're pretty much in a state of where we, the RP-ers, are the first of a new wave of heroes. But there is a metahuman history.

ok, after much thought, both of my characters will be in Gotham.

reasons...
1) Hearthcrafter will be dealing with the Gypsies and other 'mystic' types, Gotham was more suited for that than Metropolis.
2) For Wyldeside, I want people thinking "Catwoman" for a while... and the idea of getting some training from an old Bruce Wayne or even Jason Todd (he's still the current 'robin' right?) or any of the old batcrew (Batwoman/girl, Oracle, Nightwing) is just too tempting to pass up.

Actually, I simply said you couldn't use "the Batcave" b/c it was already taken. if you want to lowercase the "b" or split the words, then the name is changed, and it is no longer "the Batcave." Grammatical differences have an unfairly disproportionate effect when compared with the actual change itself.

@JuNii: Jason Todd is probably dead too. Pretty much the whole previous cast is gone, wiped out at the end of NJLU III. Somebody got a hold of the Spear of Destiny, and well, mixing objects that killed Person #2 of the Holy Trinity and a fight with elementalists pitted against Omino, Haze, and a few other characters is never a good idea. Long story short, things got messy. Omino ended up going nuclear, and, yeah, most heroes are pretty much gone. A few might still be around if you do want the training, though. I'll use my powers as Substitute-DM to make something work.

That violates the Laws of Magic, and Captain Marvel would be forced to stop you. And believe me, he would. You do not want to mess with Captain Marvel. Well, just Marvel now. He dropped the Captain title when he took over for Shazam. Wait, come to think of it, he changed it again, going with Vlarem as his wizarding name. But he would have stopped that. Messing with the time stream is bad stuff. That's why all the stories about this have them ending with cosmic nullifications.

Grammar is defiantly underestimated, but it's probably that way because not many people like it. So technically, the batcave is different than Bruce's The Batcave. But that aside, since King Arthur is now controlling this (under Wooshaba's guidance I guess) I was wondering if you might reconsider a character I "applied" for near the beginning of this thread. It was neither denied or approved outright and I assume Woo was waiting for those of you that had posted in previous forums of his to come back because you get first priority. I'm very willing to change any aspect of his to make him approvable.

First I'd like to see a copy of said laws for one thing, secondly Marvel isn't a wizard even if his mentor is.

Uh...this is getting sorta sticky isn't it. Well to clarify a few things, Omino didn't kill the heroes. He finished off the Elementals who had killed other major heroes before that. In doing this he ultimately killed himself. The Elementals injured the Phantom Haze. The Divine Trinity are in Heaven.

This should be taking place about 15 to 20 years after that. Omino is dead. Haze is alive, but no one will RP with Haze except for me for certain reasons. Morph and Prism might be alive (Theao and Breit I will talk to you two about that later).

No superheroes are to have past training from DC Comics superheroes because I have already used that one. Phantom Haze in this RP is the last student of Nightwing and Batman Beyond. There are no more

No DC Comics heroes should ever make a major appearance seeing as they are all old. Martian Manhunter, Wonder Woman, Superman, and Captain Marvel are the only characters capable of appearing.

Also you guys don't try to lean on the DC comics background too much. It will cause to much arguing and that is the thing that really destroys a good RP. I know because I have seen it happen on here before. Everyone limit your characters powers because this superhero power discovery thread, not an outright superpower thread.

Also people from past NJLU threads, there is a good chance that your character could have died in the previous story so don't RP with that character unless you make sure that the character is not dead.

I will be guiding KAtG and Breit along helping them with details so that story doesn't get overly altered. I should be back sooner than later so don't worry about it too much.

@Woosh: Eh, sorry, was only generalising on the loss of the NJLU, included the Spear reference only because of that big fight scene, hence I thought it was important. But basic storyline will include the loss of former heroes in the event known simply as "The Fall." Details are sketchy, mostly because there wasn't any third party there to simply observe.

@Kormanthor: What JuNii and Woosh said. Most people are developing their powers, especially actively enabled abilites. I think Supreme Sorceress is a might bit overboard for the level the rest of us are at. Woosh asked us all to bring in new characters for this thread, so while I can respect the fact that Lady Moonette is a character that you have had for a while, using her that way isn't what Woosh, or really any of us, wanted.

... which could be in Gotham...

but then you keep asking about him being "picked up"? you want that he be adopted by one of us?

or you can do a variant on the batman thing hand have him and his foster parents here when they get killed and he's 'stranded' here.

Fine I will tone down her powers to no time travel in order to keep the peace. But this is starting to feel like lets attack Kor week over suggestions. But just so you know its only fair that no one else can time travel either.

Yeah that he gets adopted because of his invisibility power.

Either way he's staying 100% English :D

Y'all can use Metropolis as well. And I suppose some minor events happening near Central City, or Star City, wouldn't be too bad.

Though Draconis, an event stranding Invisible Boy at a city at, say, an airport, might work. Possible, maybe, or "Arty Boy, that idea sucks, and I want your very essence to be subjected to eternal tortures in the pits of every Hell ever created!!"? Just thought I'd drop the idea.

Ye can use Hocking Hills. I thought it was a small town in Ohio. We never said that ye could not use the town name. The localized city idea was only so that RP-ing villainous threats wasn't much of an issue to Woosh, and now Breit and I (till Woosh gets back).

Just posting everyone's bio in one convient place, for information purposes.

Real Name: Brandon Stephel
Alias: The Alchemist
Age: 20
Height: 5' 10'
Weight: 170

Appearance: Brown/red hair, golden eyes, athletic build
Out of costume: Usually just a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. In winter, a hooded sweatshirt is common too.
At work/school: A maroon apron and button-up shirt at Master's coffee shop (his job), and usually something with the school's logo on it and a maroon backpack for college
In Costume: (no professional costume as of yet) White long-sleeve shirt with black stripes at chest and forearms, black jeans with rips to show the white fibers underneath (both show off athletic build), black hiking shoes, black Mechanix brand gloves and the typical thin strip of black cloth over the eyes
Symbol: Black in color, circle with interlocking squares and circles inside, symmetrical, center has a cross with a snake winding around it. Found on both shoulders of the costume.

Personality: Extremely cocky, but caring, respectful, and usually on a caffeine high. Vigilante.

Abilities and/or Powers:Alchemy (amplified by both his symbol and the philosophers' stone/catalyst) (still fairly weak, it's a new science to him). Simple sphere barriers. Energy Channeling (instead of a barrier he can amplify his strength with a weapon, but he sees that there may be other possibilities with this in the future, also fairly new). Energy abilities are enhanced when afraid, but alchemy suffers.

Weakness(es): The 'Red Stone', chronic migraines (which can be brought on by use of the energy abilities), barriers can stop a bullet, but not gasses.

Background: He grew up the youngest of five children, so he's pretty much immune to insults. Brandon's life was in a dwindling town of less than 3000 until he moved to the city to attend a university. He graduated high school with a 3.99 GPA which is why he was asked in his junior year to run a tutoring class. It was a class of sophomores and that's where he met his girlfriend, who now attends college across the state, getting grades almost as good as his. He discovered his power to project a barrier in fifth grade as the constant subject of a bully. He discovered alchemy soon after graduating and has since become obsessed.
RPer: Sylvonia



Real Name: Adam Carey
Alias: Aenima
Age:43
Height: 5'12
Weight: 167lbs
Appearance:http://www.rockstar.it/img/Maynard_James_Keenan.jpg
Personality: Calm, but when angered he rages.
Abilities and/or Powers: Psychic and Mystical Powers
Weakness(es): Headache prone, not the most physiclly strong person
Background: Adam grew up in LA, and even from an early childhood he disliked it. Adam read the works of writers like Albert Camus and Carl Jung, and always had an interest in psychology. He saw the citizens of LA as absurd and devoid of meaning. When he discovered his powers at a young age, he worked diligently to master them. Now an adult, he teaches literature and psychology in a private school, where he finds the uninterested students more proof of LA's uselessness. With his powers, he plans to one day either change LA, or destroy it. When Sacer almost destroyed the city he was prepared to help, but was stopped by the angels sheer power. Now he waits to attack the weakened city in anyway he can, which he is still attempting to figure out.
RPer: Breitenburg



Real Name: Chandra Von Henkelson
Alias: Hearthcrafter
Age: 22
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 123 lbs
Appearance: Athletic.
Personality: caring, yet solitary. a mite on the playful side
Abilities and/or Powers:
Hearthcrafting
the ability to create any edible item in any shape or form. She can alter the density, tensile strength, size and shape of said food. the items can be cooked or uncooked, and ranging in temp from frozen to boiling hot.

Weakness(es): limited to Human consumption. so even tho a tin can is "edible" to a goat, it's beyond her.

she cannot create anything living. Even tho some cultures eat live critters (Edit: this includes seeds. she can make a watermellon, complete with seeds, but the seeds won't germinate. same for other veggies. a potato will be a potato and won't sprout, even tho atomic structure wise, it's a potato.)

Anything she creates appears in her hands or in her immediate (read 1 foot max) from her presence. so no summoning a banana creame pie to appear above someone's head... she has to toss it.

Her right hip and leg still suffer from bouts of weakness and muscle fatigue. over extending herself will cause her hip and leg to fail... unable to support her weight.

Background: Chandra was an Olympic class gymnast. However her dreams of Olympic gold was dashed when she pushed an old woman out of the path of a speeding car, having the car strike her instead. while the old woman was relatively unharmed, she suffered a shattered hip and leg... ending her Olympic dreams.

Months in the hospital and intensive therapy regained the use of her legs and it was at her last night in the hospital, that she received a most unusual visitor.

A middle aged man came in with some incense. He claimed that her act of kindness warrented that a rewarded be given. With that, he lit the sweet smelling incense and allowed it to fill the room, causing her to fall asleep.
RPer- Junii



Real Name: Rio Nevada

Alias: None at the moment

Age: 27

Height: 5'9"

Weight: 140

Appearance: fair skinned, platinum blonde hair, silvery violet eyes, well built

Personality: currently rather bitter and cynical, somewhat arrogant and not quick to trust.

Abilities and/or Powers: Psionic - Telekensis, Teleportation, Telepathy, Empathy
Weakness(es):Tires some what easily - though is in good physical condition, needs more than 'normal' caloric intake, bordeerline alcoholic
Background: A foundling, she was raised in a government crèche in Nuevo Ni-Hongo. Her abilities began manifesting themselves during puberty. Because of her high ratings she received more than the standard training, in handling her newly developing abilities in secondary school. Like all 'Goan’s she did the first two years of required federal service right out of' Secondary School, which included the Citizenship Requirement which was the equivalent of US Army basictraining.

Afterwards Rio was accepted into the Ni- Hero Academy, Nuevo Ni-Hongo's
prestigious university for the training of Super Heroes. Rio found that she loved being a Super Hero, helping people, using her abilities openly, getting paid very well to use them, and especially the near adulation she received from the public. She even had her own fan club, even if it was small as of yet...

Then every thing changed..

Super Heroes had been accepted, and feted, for their public service, their heroics, but a well organized and massively funded campaign against Ni-Hongo's Heroes changed that. Public attitudes altered almost over night, and the Heroes found themselves outlawed and hunted. Many Heroes were killed, others hid, some including Rio, fled. That was four years ago, and since then things have not gone been easy for her. She had a fiancé when the winds of favor changed, but he tried to turn her in for the reward, so she's not hot on relationships at the moment.

Rio can no more not be a hero than she cannot breathe. However she is currently bitter and drifting aimlessly. She learned that when push came to shove she'd rather lie, cheat, steal, and generally do what ever it took to survive - though she hasn't killed any one but criminals, and has tried to limit her hurting others to the minimum necessary..
RPer- Tanaara




Real Name: Ed Romano
Alias: None as of yet
Age: 32
Height: 190cm
Weight: 86kg
Appearance: Vibrant green eyes and short brown hair. Ed would be considered a reasonably good looking guy that keeps regularly active and thus possesses a well toned body.

Personality: Naturally a friendly person, life experience has taught him to be a little cautious at the best of times, but that does not prevent him from being outgoing when he feels comfortable. Ed is somewhat conflicted about his abilities, on one hand he feels he has great potential to help people, on the other, he's ashamed of them.

Abilities and/or Powers: Elementalism. The power to create and control the four natural elements; fire, air, earth and water. This ability is very open ended and can be used in a number of obscure manners, depending upon Ed's imagination.

Weakness(es): It should be noted that Ed can be somewhat reluctant to use his powers as they were the cause of his parents' death, this is particularly the case with fire. Besides this psychological issue, Ed will become quite physically drained after extensive use of his powers, especially in great magnitudes. Besides his elemental gifts, Ed is completely normal and thus vulnerable to all physical ailments.

Background: Ed was born and raised in Australia, despite his parents being Russian. With little work to be found in Russia and some family over in Australia, they decided to relocate in the hope of establishing a better life.

For many years everything was perfect for the Romano family. Both Ed's parents found good, stable employment and Ed made a name for himself as a young, rising sportsman, especially in athletics.

Unfortunately this didn't last as long as any of them would have liked it to. To this day Ed doesn't know what happened to him, yet several days after his twentieth birthday, Ed's powers awoke.

Fire was the first of them to arise. A flame so intense it took minutes to devour Ed's home, killing both his parents before they even fully comprehended what was happening. Several days later he awoke in a hospital, completely unharmed by the fire and yet unaware of the events he unintentionally caused.

Authorities found nothing suspicious about the fire and as Ed was legally an adult, he was left to fend for himself. Insurance from the house and his parent's deaths provided him with enough money to live reasonably for a while. It didn't take Ed long to realise he had been the cause of the fire, his other powers awakening soon enough.

And so the young man began a nomad's life. Working when he needed to, stealing when he needed to and generally drifting through life. To date he hasn't forgiven himself for what he did and is forever reluctant to use his fire abilities unless under extreme pressure or emotionally stressed.

Over the years Ed has been learning to control his powers, refining his skills and understanding his abilities better. There will always be more for him to learn but no one could accuse him of being inept with the elements.

Despite being gifted in such an unnatural manner, Ed also maintains an exceptional level of fitness and strength, the drills of his athlete days still firmly planted within him. Due to this he is a formidable opponent in most physical conflicts, employing the use of his abilities or not.
RPer- Assington




Real Name: Nicholai "Nicky" Makovsky
Alias: Omega (Last letter of the Greek alphabet)
Age: 26
Height: 6' 2"
Weight: 123 lbs
Appearance: Prone to wearing a black, Kevlar cat suit. His straight, black hair flows down to the top of his shoulders. His eyes are strangely warped, as they are amber in colour. His pupils are thin and sharp, and the blood vessels around his eyes are brown and inflamed. He hides this distinguishing feature via black sunglasses, which he removes when he needs to use his powers. He has a deathly-pale complexion, which appears in sharp contrast to his dark attire.
Personality: Egotistical and cruel; Nicholai is obsessed with beauty. He regards the world as 'ugly', and believes that 'the filth must be cleansed, and from its ashes a new civilisation shall begin'. Nicholai has also developed mental problems, with a new 'personality' building in his subconscious, bordering on insanity and schizophrenia. This strange personality appears to be a mixture between his dead sister and his homosexuality. While his new persona is merely a whisper in his head, it has had a profound change on Nicholai, resulting in minor tranvestitism and an increased attraction to men.
Abilities and/or Powers: Nicholai is an excellent marksman, but prefers smaller handguns to rifles. He also has a personal Beretta 92FS, which never leaves his side. Nicholai only possesses one power; the ability to change the state of any material, i.e. solids to liquids, liquids to gasses, and vice-versa.
Weakness: Using his powers causes an immense mental and physical strain on Nicholai. Overusing can result in side effects ranging from black outs to deliriousness. When he reaches the state, his alter-ego can soemtime stake control. As if to add insult to injury, Nicholai does not have a large amount of control over his powers. He also finds it difficult to use his abilities on live creatures.
Background: Nicholai was only 7 when his family immigrated to America. Finding his new residence to be a rough ghetto, Nicholai immediately barred himself from the outside world, leaving his home only to go to school. However, this all changed after one night. His parents, along with his sister, had left to go to the supermarket. Nicholai, of course, refused to come. Unfortunately, his entire family was knocked down by a rogue car. His parents had died instantly, his sister later in hospital. Nicholai was put into foster care. However, Nicholai hated his new home more than the ghetto, and frequently tried to escape. One day, his rage turned to raw power. While being restrained, Nicholai's strange ability was unearthed. His new eyes stared at the social security officer, who collapsed from shock when the hand he had placed on Nicholai's shoulder was liquidised. Nicholai escaped, and spent the next years on the street, honing his abilities and working for local gangs. Eventually, when he felt his powers had reached an acceptable level, he set out on his mission; to cleanse the entire world, in a genocidial purge. Starting with LA.
RPer- The RSU




Real Name: Markus Alveron

Alias: None

Age: 16

Height: 5'6"

Weight: 154 lb

Appearance: Mark has dark red eyes and he has short black hair. He has an
athletic build, obtained from years of playing sports. He generally wears blue jeans and a green T-shirt.

Personality: Markus is a very nice person generally. He is very paranoid about his abilities. He is scared of what his friends and family will say or do when they find out about them. He tries to make sure that nobody ever discovers his abilities. Markus's goal in life is to simply find a way to either get rid of his powers, or find some way to control them.

Abilities and/or Powers: Markus has the ability to absorb, store, and release thermal energy. He can then release the heat all at once in the form of waves of heat emanating from his body. If he concentrates hard enough, he can also release the energy in the form of a beam from his hands. Markus is also very resistant to heat because of his ability. Markus's body can use the thermal energy stored inside it as a substitute source of energy and thus he never gets tired.

Weakness(es): Markus's abilities are always stuck active unless Markus actively suppresses them. However, he can only effectively suppress the release of the thermal energy. He can only weaken the absorption of energy, and only well enough so people don't wonder why everytime he is near a stove, the food ends up taking three times as long to cook, or why the swimming pool gets colder everytime Markus is swimming. Markus can lose control of his abilities easily when he loses his concentration or when he gets too emotional. When this happens, he can no longer effectively control his abilities and all the heat that is stored inside of him starts pouring out of him in large waves of heat, until he can regain control of himself.

Because Markus's body has adapted itself to extremely high temperatures, whenever it is cold around him, such as when it snows or rains, or when it is night, his body will prevent him from any use of his powers, and channel everything into keeping his body temperature at a ridiculously high level, effectively making him a regular human. If his body is unable to keep his body at a high enough temperature, whether due to not enough stored thermal energy, or because Markus is just in too cold of a location, Markus will collapse, get dangerously sick, and can die if he is left in the cold long enough.

When Markus goes to sleep, he can not control himself, and often ends up losing control of his abilities. As such, he doesn't go to sleep for he doesn't want to risk melting things around him or setting fire to flammable objects.

In order to avoid the mental problems associated with lack of sleep, every two weeks or so, Markus finds an abandoned area, far away from any civilization, and sleeps for two or three days straight. During this period his powers go haywire, destroying everything within a fifty meter radius around him. Although this helps him offset the more serious problems, Markus still suffers from mental fatigue, occasional fits of rage, and sometimes hallucinates.

Background: Markus was born and raised in California, in a city near LA. His powers first began to develop during puberty. One day, Markus woke up and his parents noted that he had an immense fever. He went to the hospital with a temperature of 150°. The doctors were shocked and amazed that Markus had such a high temperature, but otherwise seemed perfectly fine. Indeed they found that he seemed to have an inexhaustible amount of energy. They finally released him a week later when they were unable to find anything wrong with him.

Excited by Markus's large amount of energy, Markus's father convinced him to get into sports. Markus agreed, and by the time he entered high school, he was playing six sports. At that time, Markus's ability to release heat energy showed itself. One day while swimming for fun with some friends, his high emotions caused his body to start releasing large amounts of heat that ended up evaporating almost all the water in the pool. Markus subconsciously knew that he was causing it, and by sheer force of will managed to stop the heat from being released. That day, when Markus looked around at all the frightened faces around him, he realized that telling people about his powers wouldn't do him any good.

RPer- Draconis Nightcrawlis





Real Name: Haruka (Hari) Kyle
Alias: WILDSIDE
Age:19
Height:5'9"
Weight: 130
Personality: cattish... easily distracted. sometimes seems aloft, other times... playful.
Abilities and/or Powers:
Shapeshifting - Last of the Natural WereTigers
includes Hightened senses, healing, tracking ability, porportional strength, Low Light Vision, exceptional balance, Situational awareness.
her three forms...
1st: Human female.
2nd: Human/Tiger hybrid.
3rd: Tiger

Weakness(es):Catnip. extra-susceptable to drugs. MPD, Her "wild" side has a personailty of it's own and... well that will be shown.
Equipment: RICH! Multi-billionairess.

Background:an orphin, Haruka, a Japanese born child was adopted by two American parents and grew up American. However, when puberty hit, she found herself starting to behave like a cat (jittery, nervous around strangers, starting to see/hear/smell things others can't.)

She lost her parents when their private plane crashed in the jungles of Africa. while search parties were looking for them, she shifted for the first time and hunted as a Tiger/woman hybrid. Horrified at what she turned into, she avoided the rescuers searching for her (they found the bodies of her parents at the wreakage.) After several months trying to come to grips with what she had become, she allowed herself to be found and rejoined society. however, now that the cat has been let out of the bag, it won't go quietly back inside.

Being that she is back among civilization, she has suppressed her "Wild Side" however, she's noticing that the beast within wants out and now she must find a way to cope with it.

Points of interest, but things not necessarily known to her.
Catnip is a narcotic to her. she does loose complete control of her animal side and can kill in her mad frenzy. She is also susceptable to anesthetics as well as Tranqs and other drugs.
also, should her human side be rendered unconcious (drugged, anesthetic, sleeping) her cat side takes over. so often times, while she's sleeping, her body is exploring her house, sharpening her nails (claws) on fabrics and... well, I'll leave the rest to your imagination. if both sides are rendered unconcious (strong tranq) she will revert to human form. unfortunatly, that does mean she ends up unclothed.

She does have a higher rate of recovery, Healing but no regenration.

Note: as a Natrual Lycanthrope, she cannot infect anyone with lycanthropy... tho she doesn't know that and is constantly afraid that someone will be infected.

her closest companions is Michael, her family's butler/driver, Emily, his daughter (Hari's age and best friend also being trained to be her Maid/Personal Assistant) and Yvette, the cook and Michael's wife.

Her parents died shortly after her birth and she was put up for adoption. shortly thereafter, the normally bookish girl started showing an interest in the athletics. taking Gymnastics as well as some forms of martial arts. The fatal plane trip was a Graduation Celebration she was taking with her family.

Real Name: Julian Michael Jeous
Alias: Shield / Sunder
Age: 17
Height: 5'6"
Weight: Average, slightly on the light side.
Appearance: Generally average 17 year old, very pale green eyes, black hair with white stripe running length(natural/dye resistant), darker shaded clothing(blues, greens, reds, blacks, and grey)
Personality: Introverted, somewhat asocial, cautious(JMJ/Shield) / Confident bordering on arrogant, agressive, cruel, self-possessed(Sunder)
Abilities and/or Powers: Force-field, wide connections of cyber/pen pals, good with computers
Shield can generate one sufficiant to cover entire body, use to enhance strength/speed to be able to press 500 lb. and about 10% faster than olympic(gold) records(faster the speed, greater the fatigue), can generate weapon(generally melee-esq) at expense of defence
Sunder can generate field four times body area, enhance strength/speed to 2 tons/600% olympic speeds(with significantly less fatigue), greater array/ability to use weapons(multiple/ranged), Knows what happens when Julian/Shield is dominant
Weakness(es): Little experiance in fighting, hemophobic, power level less suited for combat, Doesn't know of Sunder or his actions(Shield) / Little use for defence, little stratigic foresight(Sunder)
Background: An average 'nerd', some time sortly after puberty Julian developed a white streak in an otherwise black head of hair. This, as well as somewhat questionable hygine, quickly lead to him being called things like skunk-boy by the jocks and popular kids.

At the age of sixteen, just shy of his seventeenth, he got hit by a runaway car. Contrary to all logic, he survived with only minor scratches, the car however wasn't so lucky and looked like it had run into a telephone pole. Remaining at home for a couple days, after pleading sick, he realized that he could generate a force-field of limited size. However the incident that caused him to first manifest his force-field also unlocked all the bottled rage, hate and blood-lust that had been pent up by being picked upon. This had generated an alternate personality, Sunder. Realizing that he could help people, to an extent, Julian adopted the persona of Shield, little realizing that there existed a much more sinister entity within.

With the general crack-down and goverment interest in super heros, much of the time he uses his abilities for minor things such as tripping criminals. He's received 'tips' from one of his more wing-nutty friends that the goverment may be interested in him, as his abilities could be used to protect important or threatened goverment officials. However, he doesn't think it could happen to him.
RPer- Theao







Name: Roger Markus Hartigan
Alias: Dragon Blood
Age: now 26, though becoming less and less of an issue
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 245 lbs.
Hair: Short, black
Eyes: transient, fading from green on the outside to blue to purple on the inside

Personality: Quick witted, but steady emotionally, somewhat somber due to power development

Skills: trained pilot, amateur actor during college, impressive knowledge of chemical and biological pathogenic agents, mastery of unarmed and melee weapon combat

Abilities: Highly advanced healing agent, shows no signs of visible aging past physical prime, able to regenerate entire limbs within hours of loss. Bones show increased uptake of titanium, and incorporation by osteoplasts into the bone matrix structure, increasing skeletal density and strength. Overall strength improved to 750 lb chest press, speed approximately 140% of record setting athletes. Due to healing agent, endurance levels can sustain 90% maximum output for periods of over two hours. Rapid immuno-response to foreign matter, effectively immunized against any pathogen within 48 hours of exposure. Vision hearing, and reflexes approximately three times that of a normal human, touch, taste, and smell 50% higher than normal human sensitivity. His mental shielding must be actively lowered when telepaths try to make contact.

Weaknesses: Mental shields make his psionic signature so pronounced that even low level psychics can sense him, essentially eliminating any stealth attacks. Increased sound sensitivity makes ultra-sonic frequencies anywhere from noticeable to debilitatingly painful. Additionally, those debilitating sonic frequencies cause his mental shields to collapse, leaving him defenseless against telepathic attack. Healing agent not confirmed against possiblity of decapitation, incineration, or oblideration. Anaesthetics ineffective, and the healing response feels as if the injury is repeating itself, albeit slowly. Titanium in bones strong enough set off metal detectors, so he carries a medical card that states he has had multiple structure pins set in after a motorcycle accident. Highly susceptible to magnetic manipulators.

Bio: Roger was a skilled high school geek, athletic enough to have played flag football, but not having the dedication for full contact football. He trained in the martial arts, and became a licensed pilot for non-commercial flights, a skill he used on his prom dates when flying his then-current girlfriend out for cross-state dinner before the dance.

When in college, Roger studied biology and chemistry, earning a Ph.D. in bioengineering. He specializes in pathogenic agents, and has been trying to determine if it was some accidental but unrecognized contaminant that changed him. Regardless of the source, while on his motorcycle, traveling to his father's house one evening, he crashed, only to wake up, hours later, able to walk, and, whith his right arm on the ground. It went from finger tip to shoulder, and bore Roger's watch and shirt sleeve, while he had a naked, fully formed arm still attached and fully ambulatory. He called his father, and after ensuring that his son was alright, Roger's father, a physician, discovered that it was indeed Roger's arm that had lain in the street. As the weeks progressed, Roger found his body becoming more enhanced than it had ever been before.

Returning to his lab, Roger has been with the CDC, as an analyst working on determining points of outbreak and migration for epidemics. Private tests, some done in conjunction with his father, have demonstrated his own immune system enhancement, and his father first identified the osteoplastic action of the titanium consumption when a piece of marrow corrroded a handling tray.

Personal Hobbies: Does time as an underground cage fighter for both the thrill and to keep in shape. Fights as the "White Dragon" since "The Caucasian Bruce Lee" was too long for the announcer to remember.

I have looked for maps of Metropolis, but did not find any. But descriptions of Metropolis places it near New York. So I guess I will have to use Manhatten & Long Island as main locations in Metropolis as the Statue of Liberty is shown in Superman Movies and isn't that far from the Daily Planet Building. There is a building that has been empty since 1998 at 2 Columbus Circle in Manhatten. This is the building that I decided Gwendilynne Shultz would purchase and make the Home of Nelchizedeke Aerospace in this thread. This address is located next to Central Park which I figure is a good place to start looking for criminals.

Oh, and Kor, we've already stated that Metropolis is located somewhere on either the Delaware or Maryland coast, as per the most recent DC Comic book references. The exact location, however, is unknown, and we're keeping it that way, and backing this up with the "artistic license" element to put a fictional city pretty much wherever the heck we want.

The park and encircling drive, though, are still there, and actually were important during the "Death of Superman" run, when the hero was buried there after entering a state of suspended animation following his fight with Doomsday.

Ok Arthur show me your links that proves what your saying, I have already provided mine. I didn't do my research just to get shot down by you again. By the way the real world Metropolis is half way between St. Louis and Nashville, check it out if you don't believe me. Whether my characters business is in New York or Metropolis is not important I'm not changing it. Just what do you have against me anyway?
King Arthur the Great
26-06-2007, 04:40
As far as Gotham's locale, it's somewhere on the Jersey shore, though never really specified. Metropolis is believed to be in Delaware or Maryland, somewhat closer to the capital. And warmer.

Kor: That was a previous post, which was based off of the Superman Webpage (http://www.supermanhomepage.com/comics/comics.php?topic=comics-racfaq#location). These are th locations given for the post-Zero-Hour reboot, and thus the most canon locations in the DC Universe according to the comics, which is what we are using.

And if you had read my post, you would have realized that while the state in which you placed Metropolis is wrong, the geography of the city itself is correct. That was what I said. Last paragraph in the post you quoted.

Kor, I don't have anything against you. From what I've seen, you only seem to read the first set of sentences. I didn't say anything about changing where Lady Moonette's developing plant had to be. I didn't say it couldn't be in New York State. All that I stated was that Metropolis is in Delaware, a la the above web-page that goes through some of the more confusing retcons of the DC world.

Please, I'm only asking that you not put words in my mouth, and that you listen to more than just the first words, because A) I often qualify them as I go, B) might be joking, which would be indicated by later remarks, or C) might be addressing more than one point, as Woosh and I have already talked about the general physical geography in posts that addressed more than one topic.

Arthur DC has never given Metropolis a definate location, it has been described as being a Megaopolis on the East Coast somewhere between Washington DC and Boston, that is a lot of territory to choose from. I used New York because of evidence in the Superman movies made by Chris Reeves where he takes Lois Lane on a flight that ends up circling the Statue of Liberty. Further I wasn't trying to put anything " in your mouth ", rather I was following the belief that you wished the thread to be as " Canon " as possible. Even the newest Superman movie depicts Metropolis as a New York like setting as one of the pics in my link shows. Arthur I am the type person that always researches my ideas for characters, threads, or whatever it is I am working on at the time. I put a lot of time into trying to get the details right or as canon as possible. Unforunately when you are dealing with the folks of DC that is not the easiest thing to accomplish. So lets lay the blame where it should be .... on DC for never giving Metropolis a definate location, instead of blaming each other.

Central City's location has been vaguely defined over the years, similar to DC's other fictional cities such as Gotham City and Metropolis. In the 1970s, Central City was stated as being located in Ohio, where the real-world city of Athens, Ohio would be (as shown in Flash #228 in 1974). In 1987's Flash (volume 2) #2, published just after the reality-altering storyline Crisis on Infinite Earths, Central City was shown as being in Florida. In the 1990s, Central City was shown as being located in Missouri, near the Kansas/Missouri border, adjacent to Keystone City.


Star City's location, like those of Metropolis, Gotham City, and other cities in the DC Universe, was uncertain for many years, with varying depictions over the decades, including the Great Lakes in the 1960's and Massachusetts Bay from the 1970's until the late 1980's. In one 1970s reference, it was stated that Star City was in Connecticut. Currently, northern California has been settled upon as its location, specifically in the coastal regions north of San Francisco Bay.
At least one map has been published in 1985 and was occasionally modified by Mayfair Games during the years that the company held the license for role-playing game adaptation rights for the DC Comics universe, detailing Star City's geographical layout. Though the Atlas placed Star City on California's Pacific Coast, north of San Francisco, the layout used for the city map resembled the geography of metropolitan Chicago, but reversed, so that it would be on the Michigan side of Lake Michigan: So the neighborhood of "East Gary" was approximately where the real Gary, Indiana, is, but it was on the Pacific Ocean instead of Lake Michigan.

Since you said we might use Central or Star City in this thread, what location do you wish to use? I figured it would be easier if I just asked you instead of researching on my own this time. As you can see from the information above there locations are just as confusing as are Metropolis'. By the way, I vote for the Athens , Ohio location for Central City.

She Bat is in Hocking Hills, so yeah, let's put Central City as "near" Athens. If Hocking Hills is a suburb, then that can let us put it close to Central City, giving us another locale for She Bat and Wyldeside to use. As a note, though you already seem to be on top of this, the Flash (Flashes II, III, and IV, to be specific) would have operated out of there. While they are now history, they are still history, and the city would probably have a memorial to "The Flash, The Fastest Man Alive" as a landmark, similar to the Superman and Superboy statue in Metropolis.

And yes, you are right, it is confusing about the locale of ficitonal cities. I am sorry if you felt that I was jumping down your throat. I din't mean to do it, I have been stressed, and I vented where I shouldn't have.

That being said, RSU, Theao, Shal, I'm going to be watching what y'all do via the edits. So far, though, none of you have tried to do anything blatant, or overpowered, or actively over the line. I guess I exected a situation like this to happen, I'm just glad that it's being resolved amongst the RP-ers, and that I have seen enough to trust all three of you. It means less work, and therefore less headaches, on my end. Mostly I'm just interested to see what's going to happen next in this little three-way hero encounter.

No, the only long range device they had was a scaner that detected abnormal psionic signatures. Roger blew it out, though, so they've been forced to up the use of short range scanners, using highly urbanized areas as the statistical probability of detecting a meta-human is far greater.

As Sherlock Homes would do, they are balancing probabilities and selecting the most likely situation.

Totally off-topic for an OOC thread here, which is, I must say, quite an accomplishment:

I've had to go to the mods twice in the last day over Boofness spamming posts and quoting whole long posts without providing any useful words whatsoever. Might be time to start complaining to the right authorities if he continues to bug you guys.

So, he's been trying to hack into more than just this thread. Figures.

Do we know how many threads he's been forcing his way into? And better yet, why was his original nation (with less than a billion people, making it not that large) deleted? I'm going to find this stuff out, so if any of you have anything that could be helpful, TG me.

If I have to go to the mods, I'll do it the way the best lawyers do. I don't go in guns blazing, but I will have them loaded with ammo, and ready to be brought out. I just hope more of my time doesn't get wasted on this guy.

Folks I am planning a quick trip back to Ohio for Nikki ( SheBat ) for a Fouth of July terrorist threat at Origins International Game Expo. in Columbus.
This idea was prompted by six differant questionable suitcases found in Columbus this last week that are being investigated for possible terrorist activity. As well as the fact that I will be attending Origins this weekend myself as I have done for the past four years.
Then SheBat is on to Gotham City in search of the The Molehill Mob; ( An infamous gang of hoods with organizied crime connections that hid out in Gotham City's labyrinthine subway system in Batmans time ).
I figure they could still have a presence in Gotham even in this time period ) who SheBat will find some clues to from searching the Harlem Titans in her next post. Maybe we can hunt them together, I was also wondering if someone could RP the Molehill Mob, if not I could use my other country Koramerica to RP it. Please let me know what you all think of this idea.

I haven't done to much research on them yet but here is a search link for them which I have placed on my fav list.

http://search.mywebsearch.com/mywebsearch/GGmain.jhtml?searchfor=The+Molehill+Mob&st=sb

Also if your character in ohio is available the Origins Bomb threat would be a good place where our characters could meet for the first time. Possibly even work together to save the day!

Cool, I'll need at least a couple post for SheBat to find the evidence from the Harlam Titans then travel back to Columbus to start her investigation.


RL Note:

By the way one of my roommates told me this morning that one of those suitcases found here did have a bomb in it that exploded. I guess it was on the news last night, I didn't know because I work at night. Also I am getting ready to go to Origins now so I will check this thread tonight before I go to work.

Its 0100 Sunday Morning and I just got home from Origins, I've had a lot of fun and there is one more day before it ends. But the best thing is who I meant in person their .... Richard Hatch . For those of you who don't know who he is, he is best known for his role of Captain Apollo on the original Battlestar Galactica! And he is currently in a recurring role as Tom Zarek in the second version of Battlestar Galactica. Well I need to be there at 0800 in the morning so I talk to you all more tomorrow evening.

Please check out this link about Mr. Hatch:

Hey. This is my first time doing this kind of forum thing. I don't know if you are accepting any more Superheroes, but I'm posting one anyway.

Real Name: Stephen Ang
Alias: Mystic Monkey
Age: 35
Height: 6' 2"
Weight: 180 lbs

Appearance:

Civillian: Gelled back black hair, which is graying. Usually dressed in purple clothing of some kind.

Hero: Purple robes trimmed in gold and covered in strange runes. Hair is the same as it always is. Gelled back.

Personality: A bit taciturn and a tad more standoffish to everyone but his trusted spider monkey, Jeff. Stephen will get his point across when he's got to though.

Abilities and/or Powers: The Monkey was trained in Kung-Fu as well as fencing. When the Monkey lived in Tibet, he learned to manipulate the world, as well as weak-minded folk with his mind. This includes Telepathy, Telekineses, Mind-Control (On weaker-minded folk), and the ability to conjure up certain objects and tools.

Weakness(es):Mystic Monkey will go out of his way to protect his monkey, Jeff, even when his own death is a possibility as a result. In order to use his mental powers, the Monkey must be able to speak his incantations.

Background: Stephen Ang was born and raised in Arkham, Massachusetts. When Stephen lost his wife to cancer, he went on a journey to Tibet to "find himself". He got lost in the mountains and was found, hypothermic and near death, by an old man living in the mountains. This man nursed him back to health, and once Stephen gained his trust, the old man taught him how to hone his mental strength into physical manifestations and how to manipulate objects and people. Stephen stayed with this man for years, but eventually left him, only to return every year to visit his mentor. Eventually Stephen adopted a monkey in attempt to fill the hole that was made with the deathof his wife. He later realized, reading a comic book, that he should become a Super Hero himself. He was, from that moment on, Mystic Monkey.

Arthur what has happened to the Wayne Family holdings since the fall? Is Bruce still alive? If not does he have any heirs? Is the Batcave still under Wayne Manor? The reason I want to know is because Lady Moonette is looking for property in Gotham.

Good Question, I would also like to know. also, FYI, in Dark Knight Returns. it's indicated that the 'cave system' that the batcave is a part of, is Very Extensive. so when Wayne Manor and the Batcave was destroyed, he simply moved to another part of the cave system.
King Arthur the Great
13-07-2007, 00:14
Kor, the Batcave and Wayne manor are still in private hands, via advanced preperation by the part of Master Bruce. Suffice it to say that the Batcave, along with Batman's auxilliary hold outs, are inaccessible in essentially all shape and manner, except by those that already know how to get to them. Wayne developed some pretty scary technology to block intruders, not to mention the favors that Dr. Fate and the Spectre owed him.
Kormanthor

I was curious as to the fate of Wayne Manor and the Batcave. Given Lady Moonettes powers and technical skills I think she would at least be able to make an educated guess about the wereabouts of the cave system. I'm not talking about purchasing or breaking into the Batcave itself but another section of that same system would be ideal. A much larger section then the Batcave would be needed in order to house her secret high tech base, labs and hanger bay/s for ship storage and repair with her home estate on the land above. I also wish to purchase a building in downtown Gotham City, something near Wayne Towers. I was hoping that Wayne Industries was still in business as I would like to do business with them. I feel that they should be one of the companies picked to help me upgrade earth technolgy levels to universal levels. Being that they have built weapons under government contracts before would make them an obvious choice. You said that you would be RPing anything having to do with canon DC Charaters so I was wondering if you would be interested in something along these lines. Because of Lady Moonettes power level I thought I would only use her against the more powerful villians in order to keep the game balanced. Otherwise she would mostly just build and run her business.

Remember though, in DC canon, the top JLA and JSA security systems included "and even some of that really scary stuff that Bruce invented." It's analogous to Mr. Fantastic or Iron Man of Marvel Comics. And as far as power levels go for mystic breaks, like we already stated, Doctor Fate would have at least put a major warding system up that, coupled with Thanagarian and Batman's stuff, would have kept out mystic breaks. (Thanagarian sensors have magic field disruption, and since Batman had a working knowledge of magical attacks, he would have done enough to conceal his location from even the Great Lords.)

On the other hand, the use of Wayne Enterprises, now under the direction of the Board of Governors, for use in amplifying earth's tech while incorporating Kryptonian, Thanagarian, and Martian systems to a self-sustenance level comparative to the depiction of universal standards would make sense. You'd probably be talking with Lucious Fox's three grandsons, who have the Wayne stamp of approval from Wayne Enterprise's owner.
