History Roleplay / TheGoodTheBadAndTheSpandexIIIElectricBoogaloo

* ILoveNuclearPower: Ryan Brady AKA Collateral has nuclear powers as a result of having an experimental armor fused with him.

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: The RP already has over 50 characters--and it's growing!

* ElectricBoogaloo: See the title.

* MagicalLibrary: Easton City Library is this, complete with FlyingBooks, its own GeniusLoci / AlienGeometries, and [[MagicLibrarian Magic Librarians.]]

* SuperheroesStaySingle: Subverted--many of the heroes are very eager to either get into relationships or hook up.
* {{Wuxia}}: Jumping Bean, Red Tiger, and Black Wolf all have this shtick.

* ArtAttacker: The defining trait of the Inspired--whatever they define as "art" gives them powers based around it. Since nothing is truly impossible in art, they can be [[RealityWarper Reality Warpers]], [[PowerAtAPrice at the low, low price of falling to Madness.]]
* UndyingLoyalty: Sir Bayard is still guarding the graves of his comrades and waiting for his Lord to return to him [[HonorBeforeReason against all reason.]]
* ILoveNuclearPower: Ryan Brady AKA Collateral has nuclear powers as a result of having an experimental armor fused with him.

* {{Fanservice}}: There are some pretty loving descriptions of certain characters' attractive or muscly physiques. No need to expound.
* KudzuPlot: Pretty much a given due to Spandex's nature as a freeform RP. After experiencing several explosions of such instances, rules were implemented to help control this kind of thing.
* ElectricBoogaloo: See the title.
* TheCape / {{Superhero}}: Many characters are such things, such as Goldrush, Masked Rider Genesis, and almost the whole of the JFI. This is unsurprising due to Spandex's nature.
** AntiHero / AntiVillain: Since this is a {{Superhero}} RP, these types of characters also show up with regularity. Examples include Collateral, the Thespian, and much, much more.
** Villain: Of course, we can't forget those on the opposite end of the heroic spectrum. These feature heavily as [[TheAntagonist Antagonists]], though no overarching BigBad has showed up yet.

* BreakingTheFourthWall: Ial Lesson AKA The Thespian has this as a power. He can read posts and even rewrite his own death! As a lesser example, the RP sometimes references previous iterations by having characters {{Lampshade}} the DejaVu either out loud or in their thoughts.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Myrkaan, a demon, shows disdain for the Neo-Nazis he manages to manipulate into doing his dirty work for him.
* CrazyIsCool: The setting. Forget mythological creatures and magic, we have aliens with plasma-generating organs running around, Magical Sea Snails, people from alternate worlds...the list goes ever on.
* ContinuityReboot: Why else would this RP be called Spandex '''III'''? This gave people plentiful opportunities to rework old characters and introduce new ones.
* ContinuityLockOut: Seeing as the sheer amount of lore involved in the previous iterations is...very intimidating, rules were implemented to prevent lore overloads in the hopes of not driving off new players.

* CrazyAwesome: The setting. Forget mythological creatures and magic, we have aliens with plasma-generating organs running around, Magical Sea Snails, people from alternate worlds...the list goes ever on.

** {{Villain}}: Of course, we can't forget those on the opposite end of the heroic spectrum. These feature heavily as [[{{Antagonist}} Antagonists]], though no overarching BigBad has showed up yet.
* {{Shoutout}}: Several--Masked Rider Genesis is a reference to {{Franchise/Kamen Rider}}, while Jumping Bean's [[FauxFlame golden]] BattleAura and [[KiManipulation martial]] [[SupernaturalMartialArts arts]] references both {{Manga/Dragon Ball}} and {{ComicBook/Iron Fist}}. Tyulla, a primordial SlimeGirl, also references {{Manga/Dragon Ball}} in that she acts somewhat like Majin Buu and has the ability to BeamSpam.

* CityOfAdventure / CityOfWeirdos: Easton City is pretty darn weird.

[-[[InternalHomage A new day has dawned.]] When night fell on Easton, New York, on the first day of 2019, everything was still ordinary. Over the space of a few months, everything gradually became a hell of a lot more hectic for the harried residents of the city.-] \\

[-Empowered individuals became more common by the day. Some decided to use their powers for good--as the old, respected traditions of heroism dictated. Some, in contrast, decided to use their powers for evil.-] \\

[-Then supernatural creatures and not-so-supernatural ones practically came pouring out of the woodwork. [[{{Understatement}} That was extremely jarring.]] The public vaguely knew that empowered individuals and other such things existed, though never in such numbers--incidents were mostly concentrated in other places (and therefore of little concern).-] \\

[-But why did that happen?-] \\

[-The answer is simple--Easton is a [[WeirdnessMagnet paranormal singularity,]] and pulls everything odd towards itself. That discovery is still causing political conniptions.-] \\

[-Join the residents of Easton, and pave the way to tomorrow with your actions--good or evil!-] \\
