We'll cross the Strange bridge when we come to it.

As for JH, I can't find whether or not he really has been mentioned. I guess it's possible that his parents had heard of the original outlaw, and decided to name their son after him. Or maybe it's not his original name, and he assumed it after the outlaw who had similar scars.

Well, anyway, it's Eachiunn's character. It's up to him to decide.

Not bad. Good to have another artist in the game. In future, though, it might be better to link to another website with your work on, rather than post the pictures directly.

Say, RPG Legend, I was wondering: Would it be all right if I tried mixing in some of the goddesses from Golden Age Mary into the SHAZAM acronym? It might mean having to exchange Stamina for Skill and/or Courage for Beauty.

Quite a coincidence: Both you and Demovere, two players of Flying Brick girls, are also both rather nice artists too.

Though it should be noted that Power Girl does not fly in this game. She merely jumps hella high.

Rogue recently became a flying brick thanks to absorbing leftover energy from when a machine designed to suck the literal life out of Superman exploded.

Name:Morgan Lefay

Secret identity: Lindsey Young C.E.O of young enterprises

Species Lady of Chaos in human form

Gender: female

Age: "young adult"/ageless

Appearance: As morgan http://s276.photobucket.com/user/heroicmasterchief/media/BatmanTheBraveandtheBoldS01E05DayoftheDarkKnight720pWEB-DLAAC20H264-NTbmkv_000881631_zps33049ba6.jpg.html

Alignment: Villain/evil

Personality: She is a cruel, manipulative seductress that always gets whats she wants.

She has a distorted sense of justice and believes that the current situation of the world is disgusting (politics, poverty, capitalism corruption,crime and religion) and she believes that the american ideal of freedom and capitalism is just a tool for the control of the masses. She thinks that humanity is at it's core evil as evidenced by the numerous wars and injustices and therefore should be punished as little children to achieve greatness. She will either use an ironic curse or outright kill anyone she considers evil

She thinks the United nations and any kind of government or laws is a joke and wants to rule the world herself to bring a new age of prosperity to mankind.

She also hates superheroes (but admires them as being worthy adversaries) and most technology as she thinks they are only holding back humanity to being the glorious magical rulers of the universe they can become .

Powers and Abilities:( there are very few player villains so I am wondering if it is ok to make her very powerful given that she would have to face the justice avengers team mostly by herself.... but I can nerf her if needed)

She is incredibly beautiful manipulative, and a genius. While she has the raw power to beat the average superhero team by herself she prefers to use her brains and use people as pawns to further her goals making her brains her most dangerous asset.

Her only real weakness is also her greatest goal: the lord of order relic of "excalibur" as it's the only thing she cannot beat directly by any means. However if she ever took possession of the sword she would become completely unstoppable. She is also vulnerable to "anti magical equipments like nth metal and if she loses concentration her spells lose strength as well. Any spell that is too complex requires her to meditate and fully focus leaving her vulnerable to attacks.

Items "The eye of rao" wich gives her unlimited magical stamina, without it she can get tired if she uses too much magic.

She has a lot of RAW magical power but due to her inexperience she has yet to master her full potential. but she has the current spells at her disposal .

ETERNAL YOUTH: She doesn't age anymore but she can steal the youth and transfer it to someone else. This is a power she use very hardly

SHAPE SHIFTING: She can take many forms from a dragon to an identical copy of any human that can fool any telepath/senses.

ENERGY PROJECTION:She can use spells as energy attacks

FLIGHT

Teleportation

Magical shields (not unbreakable but good enough to allow her to scape)

Transmutation:In the past she has been shown to be able to turn average humans to stone .

Alchemy/magical potions/enchantments

Summoning: She can summon any weapon and her personal army of mindless slaves.Currently the demon Etrigan is a slave of her.

Power nullfier. She can make anyone lose their powers for 24 hrs (with the drawback she loses hers too for the same amount of time) .

Many other spells (that she has to read from a book and meditate to perform)

Weapons and Equipment:

Origin: Morgan Lefay was originally a normal human and a king arthur's sister. However one day she accidentally discovered a talent for magic when she made her brother's sword to float like a ballon. She soon came to become merlin's student at age 8 and she discovered that she had an incredible talent for magic to the point she became much more powerful and skilled at magic than the legendary Merlin himself.

Unknown to her Merlin researched a mysterious dragon tattoo she had in her back and discovered she was "the dragon that always fights the knight of legends" or in other words a lord of chaos called "dragon" in human form. According to legend Dragon became weary of the never ending struggle between order and Chaos and willingly suppressed most of it's powers to inhabit the mortal plane and find some purpose.

Her dark nature soon emerged as she soon tried to take Camelot one day by as she was along her army was easily beating camelot's army including Merlin but she was ultimately beaten by an excalibur wielding Arthur.

Despite her betrayal Arthur spared her as a last act of brotherly love Arthur asked Merlin to impression her for eternity in eternal sleep.She was unintentionally woken up 7 years ago ....

Now she is CEO of young industries one of the most powerful companies in the world (behind stark and wayne enterprises) while the emergence of superheroes has slowed her plans of world domination she is waiting for the perfect moment to strike and gain her rightful place as queen of the world.

really why ? tonguetoo op? something I can fix?.

I won't have any problem by not using this character though. I just wanted to play around with the concept of a villain . But if you think it doesn't fit this story , I can discard it without any problemsmile.

Oh! I thought you'd found another game and were making a sign-up for that.

Well, regardless, one rule that I aim to enforce is that players only get one major character per game. As in, one character they need a full sign-up for. If you want to play Morgan here, you'd have to either get rid of Mary or make her absent somehow, and it's a wee bit early for that. Alternatively, if you want to play her in Hub City, home of the baddies, then the sign-up thread is over yonder.

Nice write-up on Morgan, RPG. I think adding her to Hub City would be a great idea!

A few comments:

Both Marvel and DC have their versions of Morgan. They're for the most part, the same, evil sorceresses, the main difference being that DC's is ancient but NOT eternally young- that's why she wears a mask, because she's almost a walking mummy! That is in fact the main reason she's after Etrigan, to get The Philosopher's Stone Merlin gave him so she can regain her beauty. She also happens to have a son, Mordred, who somehow didn't age at all (can't remember why). Marvel's Morgaine not only is still young (and childless- Mordred here is the son of Arthur's sister Morgause) but she's much more powerful than DC's. The catch being that she was imprisoned in her castle by Merlin (leaving it killed her.)

So anyway, none of that stops you from doing your version your way, just pointing facts out. tongue Though I do recommend that you nerf her magic for now since most Hub City characters are street-level. Maybe she lost her magic while asleep and needs Excalibur to regain it?

I do have an idea to bring in Madame Xanadu into Hub City (to help Anarky deal with Harm, if Constantine is not available, and if Liz allows it) and guess who she used to be? Merlin's lover, Nimue! So, that would be an interesting tie-in there. Come to think of it, Constantine himself is descended from some knight who hated Merlin. Ohh, the ties of classic literature... grin

okay cool. here's this, tell me if it needs any changes. transfered over this from a notepad++ document, so the formatting might be a bit iffy.

(4/20/14: fixed date of birth in backstory) (5/29/14: made some minor adjustments.)

Main Alias: Stargirl.

Other Aliases: Ms. Manhattan. Staff.

Name: Courtney Anabell Whitmore

Gender: Female

Age: 20. Born on September 1st, 1994.

Appearance: 5'11 and 103 pounds. She has navy blue eyes and a small face, framed by golden blonde curls that fall down just pass her shoulders. Has a hollowed, sad expression. Stands with near perfect posture.

Alignment: Good.

Personality: Anxious and a bit introverted. Courtney doesn't like spending time around other people, preferring to read Mystery novels, public record, History books, and books about mythology. Courtney is willing to work with others in principle, but tends to leave groups quickly if they break her strict moral code. She does not believe that murder, torture, lobotomy or similar practices should be performed by anyone, good or evil, and will try to act against any group of people enforcing these. Firm believer in second chances and that people can change, to the point that she will harbor anyone who surrenders to her and try to help them curb any evildoing. She is much more concerned with helping protect people from a crisis than she is with resolving a crisis quickly: if it saves more lives to wait for the villain to gather up power and become a near physical god, she'd let him become the near physical god if it saved a city from destruction. Courtney is an inquisitive person and tries to find out secrets, though she doesn't usually ask questions.

Powers/Abilities: Courtney has no major powers. She has a good understanding of basic street fighting and has a decent understanding of detective work. She is trained in mixed martial arts to a level just below the average S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent. Her Cosmic Staff stores a portion of it's energy in her, allowing her to continue using it's powers for a few hours even if she isn't holding onto it. This time is longer the less she uses it's powers.

Weapons/Equipment: Courtney wields the Cosmic Staff, a relic from a civilization far away in a time long past. Without a user, the Staff will slowly drain magical energy from the surroundings to charge itself to full power. With a user, the Staff will pull from their life force magical energy and give them parts of it's energy, making them reliant on it if they wish to continue living. While holding the Staff or while imbuding with it's energy, Courtney gains these powers:

1. 'Psuedo Strength'. Stargirl can burn through her imbued energy to increase her body's strength to almost twice the strength of the average human, though still much weaker then any super with actual Superstrength. If kept up for a day straight, the Staff would need a full recharge - it is mostly used and then turned off almost instantly to conserve energy.

2. 'Basic Energy Constructs'. Stargirl can channel energy out from the Staff to create a energy construct, lasting at most an hour. These do not drain from her energy to keep up, but take up proportional amounts of energy when she originally makes it and small amounts of energy to change it's order from it's an original purpose. For holding things up with these, the limit is twice the amount she can carry. If she was just throwing bolts of energy with this, she could do it for two days before needing to recharge. Harder constructs would limit this to about a day, and if she was using all of her strongest constructs she'd last for a few hours before needing to recharge. Energy constructs can be reabsorbed by the Staff for about half the energy she originally put into them, less the longer it has been up.

3. 'Flying'. Stargirl has mastered the art of creating almost non-existance energy constructs just beneath her feet, allowing herself to walk through air as if she was walking on land. This isn't very taxing on her energy reserves, and if she's just using it she'll recover energy at almost the same rate that she uses it. Can do this almost indefinitely.

4. 'Enhanced Healing'. Stargirl heals at about three times the rate of the normal person but burns off energy very quickly while healing. She does not scar. Fingers and small appendages can be regenerated, but arms/legs cannot.

5. 'Energy Pulse'. Stargirl can release a burst of energy from herself or from the staff, knocking nearby things away with the force of a small semi truck.

6. 'Projection'. Stargirl can project her voice or nearby sounds so that they can be heard by anybody in a small radius (aprox 20meters), not going through walls.

7. 'Absorption' The Cosmic Staff can copy basic traits of other magical artifacts if it is along them for too long (aprox a month). These traits are much, much weaker then the normal magical artifact. (10% of a normal artifact's skill)

The Cosmic Staff holds basic imprints of it's wielder's personality. If anyone with an opposing personality tries to use it, it won't work for them. The former personalities in the Staff serve to help influence it's wielders, though they decay and dissapitate if enough time passes without there use.

Backstory: Courtney Whitmore was born in New York City in 1994 to the newly-weds Janna and Alister Whitmore, both scientests under the pay of S.H.I.E.L.D. studying into (Kryptonian/Kree) technology. She was raised with a firm and unyielding respect of the law and American ideals, leading to her decision that one day she'd become a police officer. Her parents were supportive, and she went through her schooling careers with high Bs and low As - a normal student, not someone who stands out.

On her nineteenth birthday, her father came home from a trip into the deserts of Arizona with a large package, muttering almost incomprehensibly. Her mother approached him and the two spoke with some technobabble Courtney didn't full understand - eventually, they moved the package into the kitchen, pulling down the curtains of the room and begining to unwrap it. Courtney watched from just around the corner of the room, trying to figure out what sort of cool thing her dad had brought home and if it'd do anything interesting.

The package was opened and pulled away from a seven-foot long rod of steel-gray metal. The two were careful to not touch it, instead moving the package completely off the table and continuing to speak to eachother in hushed tones that Courtney couldn't quite hear. Eventually, the two of them put on thick workman's gloves and seemed about to move it - when the doorbell rang. Courtney's parents swore, turning off the kitchen lights and making their way to the door to see who it was.

While they went to answer the door, Courtney stepped into the room and walked up to the table. She reached down and tried to pick up the Staff - and then, everything changed. A flash of light filled the house and reality went in and out of focus before her. An unnerving pain struck through her, shaking her to her core and causing her to stumble back and forth - she tried to scream, but no sound came out of her lips. After a few seconds of wobbling and incredibly pain, the girl's vision refocused and the Staff had reshaped itself into a five-foot long bladed staff, clutched tightly in her right hand. The room faintly glew with the energy given off from the staff.

Courtney tried to set the staff back down and pretend nothing had happened, but she heard the faint gasp of her mother. She turned around and saw her mother and father staring at her. After a brutal tongue lashing and an explanation of what the staff is - a (Kryptonian/Kree) artifact of unknown power that feeds off of the holder's life force - Courtney almost broke down, asking that the two of them helped her get rid of it. She learned that they couldn't - removing it now would kill her, or leave her mentally unstable at best.

The three discussed for a while, and after a few days they settled down and Courtney came to terms with the artifact. She decided that she'd use this new artifact to help other people as she always wanted to, even if it meant she couldn't become a cop like she wanted to. Now, after nearly a year and a half of training with the Staff to understand it's powers, she's donned a cape and mask in hopes of helping make Manhattan and the World into better places.

Awesomesorcery. Don't see any problems with it myself, except maybe one goof in the backstory when it says she was born in 1997.

Now, the next day with this game is gonna take place three months after the current Game Day. So, were I to accept you in, which would you prefer, showing up for a while on the current day, or waiting until the next day rolls around?
