Call for Replacements

[Corven_Ren]

Hey Herophiles. My Hero Central campaign Justice Squadron has recently lost two players do to personal issues. When the first one left we ran one down for a while but now that we have lost two I need replacements. Here are the campaign guidelines.

This thread is the official call for players. I am thinking of a roster of 5-7 characters.

Here is another link to the timeline and also the basic campaign background.

http://www.herogames.com/forums/show...17&postcount=1

Campaign Background....For years the Justice Squadron protected the world from superhuman and alien threats...Dr. Doom, Kill Ratio, Dr. Destroyer, the Skrulls. But these major threats eventually began to fade away. Dr. Doom made peace with the world and became one of the world's most beloved rulers. Dr. Destroyer was finally captured and is now in prison. Kill Ratio was last seen flying into space after a intense battle with the Hulk. And no alien has dared attack Earth. So the in 2008 the Squadron decided to disband, and while some minor threats occured, smaller groups of heroes, such as Vigilant & The Forces of Nature were able to take care of these. Now 20 years later a new Dr. Destoyer has emerged, Kill Ratio has returned and there are rumors of an invasion by an unknown alien speices. The Squadron is needed again. You are the child of one of the heroes of old.

Points 450+150 disads. Can be the child of any combination of DC/Marvel hero (heroes) Or even one of my custom heroes mentioned in the time line. If you want to go that route pm me and I will provide a character sheet so you could base powers of of that. I will post a Justice Squadron package later

House of M, Civil War did not happen. Inferno, X-Tinction Agenda (minus Cable) and Rise of the Midnight Sons story lines did. Certain villains also do not exist (Apocolypse, Mr. Sinister & Darksied for example) Also there is no mythtlogical pantheons.

[Corven_Ren]

Just a few more notes. Please read the time-line carefully if you don't see someone on there and want to do their offspring ask me. Here is a list of the current and former PC's so you know who's children are already in play.

Current PC's

WildCard- Son of Gambit & Rogue

Plastyque- Daughter of Reed & Susan Richards

Moon Knight II- son of the original Moon Knight

Spider-Lad- son of Spidey & Black Cat

Victor Reed VonDoom- son of Dr. Doom

Former PC's

Valkyrie- Daughter of Thor & Wonder Woman

Scion- Geneticlly engineered son of Namor & Susan Richards.

Yes thanks for fixing that for me..thats what I get for cutting and pasting it from the original thread. :p

You are aware the active point limit is 75? You are above it so you probably won't be allowed in. However I'm sure the GM has already informed you of this.

[Marcus]

By my first glance, hes only 'over active points' due to reduced endurance cost on powers.

Now, Im not sure what approach the GM in question takes on things like that, but in my experience, saying that (for example) 4d6 RKA is acceptable but 4d6 RKA 0END is not just changes how characters are built... suddenly people dont take reduced END advantages, they instead by END reserves, giant REC, or (the eternal favourite!) a big ole attack multipower with alot of different attacks, with charges on each slot.

Basic result: Foci, Guns, Battlesuits=Good, Innate Powers=Bad (because certain SFX fit game efficiency break-points better)

Sorry for the derail.

Sorry for the derail.
My 2 cents as a mostly full time GM: In our campaign we use strict AP caps, including End Reduction. 0 END powers may not seem more powerful than other powers, but the results are there. The character can take half-phase moves, push str, movement, ect. all combat without worrying about END. Reduced END is worth the points and it should count against the AP cap due to its other effects.

As an aside, END Reserves cost most powers to take a 1/4 advantage in 5ER. Even a 37 REC (the campaign max) doesn't provide unlimited END. As far as Charges in a MP go, its an effective build, but at least the slots all cost more points.

[CoreBrute]

Thank you. someone is on my side. If I was aware that the GM would have let the AP limit be broken due to Reduced endurance, you can bet I would be far more broken for the campaign.

(Incase you weren't already aware, I'm Dr Strange II)

[Corven_Ren]

Actually I've been busy and hadn't glanced at the char yet. But yes tha active point limit is 75 points to start. Also Beast I would prefer a more detailed back story please.

She has not done all that much since she is a construct and pretty much made plans to jump ship right after meeting Dr Destroyer

I find most players divide powers between using the reserve and using regular END, and don't take the advantage. Even if they do take the advantage, +1/4 impacts AP less than +1/2.

[DocSamson]

I find most players divide powers between using the reserve and using regular END, and don't take the advantage. Even if they do take the advantage, +1/4 impacts AP less than +1/2.
It's true that a +1/4 advantage will affect the AP cap less, but the overall points are somewhat made up in the Reserve Cost. Strict AP caps are definately not for every group, but they sure make potentially off balancing builds alot easier to spot (hmm...why does the player have exactly 16 charges on every slot of his MP?). Sorry for the tangent all.

As an aside, if I had the time to play I would have submitted the great, great, grandson of Cyrus Gold. After researching his family tree, he finds out that his great, great, grandfather is none other than the infamous Solomon Grundy. His powers were bestowed up him by the Parliament of Trees after he layed to rest soul of his tortured ancestor by bringing the great, great, grandson of Grundy's murderer to justice (he also was a murderer). He is now the second hulking brute to bear the name Solomon Grundy except he uses his vast strength to fight evil and avenge his family's name. His powers would be similar to the original except he can transform into a normal human form (and possibly be able to Duplicate himself if there is enough nearby plant matter).

[Short Shot]

I should likely go out to Hero Central and look but you mentioned the 75pt cap. What are the rest of the caps/guidelines? I actually had just finished building an archer with 200/150 (350 total) for the heck of it with a 75 pt multipower. I could actually do a lot with another 100 pts. Somehow, though, I don't think a 14 find weakness combined with 12 vs hit locations and 6 vs range with a 4d6 killing would endear the character to the GM.:angel:

I'm not the GM, but one of the players in this campaign. You actually have another 250 pts to play with. I think that those skill levels would make you competitive with other characters and villains. Don't want to speak for our GM though.

You should go and check out the other characters in the game for comparison.

OCV/DCV Cap is 12. I could see this with a speedster or an extremely well written Weapons master. I do not use hit locations. I have no problem with a 4d6 ka as long as it a rarely used attack. As alwyn suggested go to the HeroCentral sight and look at the characters there.

Also one note to anyone else interested the team does not have a pure brick

[Short Shot]

VERY rough draft here. Part of the problem is that I never followed anything seriously in DC or Marvel except a few titles, and even that stopped in the early 90s.

Obviously, subject to the GM's approval. One comment concerning the character is that most of his abilities really should be OIHID but I couldn't think of any valid thing that would prevent him from changing. I'll still take the hit if he's walking around in his alter ego.

Nathanial Allen Cobert



BACKGROUND
Son of Captain Atom and Catherine Cobert

Holds dual citizenship between US and and France.

Intiially raised by his mother, he didn't find out who his father was until later. With his combined engineering and science background he worked initially with the French space program. On a join US/French project, a torrorist attack resulted in emergency conditions with with the potential of the destruction of a major city. One of the US scientists, Dr. Andrew Glover, found Nate and suggested they put Nate through the same process that created both Captain Atom and Major Force, stating that he believed the time shift had been compensated for. The process is successful, as is the rescue.
PERSONALITY
Nate is a scientist with abilities both in the theoretical world and in practical world. He wishes to work to improve the human condition, and follow in his father's footsteps
QUOTE
"Don't call me Captain Atom. My father held that name. He earned the rank of Captain. So far, I haven't earned any name. If you to call me by a name other than the one I was born with, you can call me Quantum".

Notes: The field of optics usually describes the behavior of visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light; however because light is an electromagnetic wave, similar phenomena occur in X-rays, microwaves, radio waves, and other forms of electromagnetic radiation and analogous phenomena occur with charged particle beams. Optics can largely be regarded as a sub-field of electromagnetism. Some optical phenomena depend on the quantum nature of light relating some areas of optics to quantum mechanics. In practice, the vast majority of optical phenomena can be accounted for using the electromagnetic description of light, as described by Maxwell's Equations.

Ok Submissions I have recieved so far.

Dr. Strange II- Son of Dr. Strange & Clea.
Silk Detective- artifically created being made from the DNA of Forge & Magik
Quantum- Son of Captain Atom.


I will keep submissions open for a little longer. I like what I am seeing so far, but one thing the team honestly needs is a brick.

[Short Shot]

Well, if you think we need a brick...

I'm not stuck on the being the son of Cpt Atom, although I think I've built what could be a fun character. However, I've tweaked him somewhat to make him tougher. I've actually been trying to keep the cheese down.

Changes include upping his strength and Con, and giving him an Absorb option to make him even stronger and tougher. In addition, his Damage Reduction has been raised both for PD and ED to 75% resistant.

I'm willing to take suggestions on construction here. Keep in mind 1) I'm still trying to get a feel for the boundaries, 2) I've never purposely built a brick before and 3) trying to stay with the concept without going over the top in cheese.

I'd be happy to take a shot at building a son of Colossus.

[Hugh Neilson]

I will keep submissions open for a little longer. I like what I am seeing so far, but one thing the team honestly needs is a brick.

How can that be? It takes no time at all on the Boards to be blasted with the fact that STR is hideously overpowered and underpriced.

Congrats, Corven Ren - you must have the only pool of players, existing and prospective, in the entire world that includes no one trying to take advantage of blindingly underpriced constructs!

Or am I spending too much time on the 6e Boards?

[Drakkenkin]

Well, if you think we need a brick...
I'm not stuck on the being the son of Cpt Atom, ...

I have been working on making a brick to submit during last night. I wasn't planing on posting anything till I was done, but I thought I should say something now since people are thinking about changing there plans.

It would be the child of Luke Cage and Jessica Jones.

Nevertheless, if you would prefer to make the brick, I'll whip up something else to submit.

Background/History: Rena is a mutant late bloomer(she is 28 yrs old)
she also 1 of Dr Destroyer's genetic experiments using gravity manipulating elements from the DNA of Binary and the Blob
this was done during a pre-natal test by a dr that Destroyer had on his payroll
when no powers appeared during puberty,Destroyer thought the experiment failed but kept a watch on Rena till she was 25
with still no results Dr Destroyer gave up on Rena
Her powers manifested 2 yrs ago she has spent most of here time learning how to use them and is only now getting back to writing horror stories/novels
she is a first generation born american on her father's side of the family
Rena's father was a Soviet Sub captian who defected with his sub(a boomer)and most of the officers(3 yrs before she was born)
when Rena's powers manifested her father used his contacts with the US goverment to get some help and training for her for her
Rena got sent to Primus be trained
Rena has helped out Primus but perfers to be a writer
that was until Dr Destroyer detected the gentic markers he placed in his work

Personality/Motivation: thrill seeker

Powers/Tactics: 60 str :brick plain and simple
can use
flight :flys upright(ala Magneto)and walks while flying
increasing gravity field those in it are being made heavier by making them more attuned to the planet's gravity
increased stats: time space is being stretched around here, the universe slowed greatly in relation to her
N-ray perception:mass based and very accurate but cannot read unless it is carved or raised and cannot percieve colors
Mega-scale teleportation she is using gravity to warp 2 points in time space thing would be bad should she go under 1 km(think leaving a crease in time/space
Drain(gravitic crush)she is creating an intense gravitc field to crush her target down to as small as a singularity)think going past crush depth in a sub)
invisibility just extending the field from skin tight to include her clothing and refining it as to be perfect camoflage
knock back resistance using gravity to hold her in place
desolid warping space around her and a friend

Campaign Use: Front line brick
some stealth
transport
this character is coming from goverment training but has no wish to be a governemt agent(would prefer to just write horror novels or a movie)
but fate has handed her other things to her hand
word got out less than a yr ago about her father that he survived
those who had a grudge paid him back by killing him and his wife they are after the daughter but did not know that she was super powered much to their surprise

Appearance: clothing a waffenrok made for a woman 15/16 century battle dress for a landskennect
tall(thigh high)boots

That or the two characters we lost were bricks...

It's not like we are completely deprived of high strength characters. Valeria is a stretching brick (60 STR, 30 PD/ED with 50% Dam reduction). Spider-Lad is a pseudo brick since he has the resistance of a brick but the SPD, and DCV of a martial artist (plus martial arts).
Wildcard is a pseduo brick at 40 STR, 30sish def but is centered more around Gambit's powers than Rogue's (or really Ms Marvel's since he doesn't appear to have inherited Rogue's absorbing powers)
Victor is almost a brick with 40 STR and 30s defence but his low (for the group's power level) Stun and concentration on his EB's makes less of a brick..

Really the only character currently on the roster who isn't brick-like is Moon Knight. But all of us pseudo bricks are focused more on our non-brick aspects than our brick aspects. Which is why we are thinking a pure brick might be a good idea. But really, as a player in the game, I'm more interested in good quality characters than what power set is brought to the table, and whether the concept and personality fits in well with the team. Also a player who is good at role playing, will be active and won't leave would be another selling point :)

We are after all the Justice Squadron, so we really should be looking for the best of the best, or at the very least characters who are on the cusp of becoming the elite. So i'm sure Victor is looking for experienced, proven heroes who will mesh well with the current team, preferably bringing something to the table that we don't have (which really, considering our wide range of skills and powers is going to be hard).

[Nechevo]

Well, if you think we need a brick...

I'm not stuck on the being the son of Cpt Atom, although I think I've built what could be a fun character. However, I've tweaked him somewhat to make him tougher. I've actually been trying to keep the cheese down.

I'd be happy to take a shot at building a son of Colossus.

At the risk of stepping on the GM's toes...

75% Dam Reduction seems like overkill to me. Granted i'm not that experienced with Damage Reduction since my main group rarely uses them (15 years ago the GMs more or less brow beat us to not use them because it made figuring out balancing harder than it was worth) but from what i've seen even 25% really makes a character with good defenses hard to put down. I'm thinking a character with 30 PD/ED and 50% Dam Res. is the equivalent of a character with 50 PD/ED. With 75% Reduction... I'm not sure what that scales up to 70 PD/ED? Add the high REC to that and the guy will be nearly impossible to put down.

I'm also a bit concerned about the whole takes half of his body and goes nuclear thing.. Considering who we are up against, getting down to half our body on a regular basis isn't entirely out of the question.

Outside of that I like what I see... Although I think I preferred the First draft better (maybe take the first draft and make that one 45 STR, keep the variable FX EB since that's a nice touch...) Tough call since draft 1 is more of a pseudo brick than a true brick..

But then again since so many of us are pseudo bricks perhaps Valeria is enough of a brick anyways if one of the new PCs can soak a lot of damage.

Bit of a fair warning though compared to Valeria and Victor (and to a lesser extent Spider-Lad) Quantum is at best an amateur scientist. So if being a scientist is your character hook...

[Beast]

if you are playing in a 75 active pt game
you include the pts in damage reduction with armor so you don't get the 30 ed and 50% damage reduction
you go more like this
75% damage reduction resistant cost 60 pts
10 armor cost 15 pts
would not worry about pd from strength unless it gets over 10 pts

I was going to comment on this as well but didn't wanna start another tangent. We do something similar to this in our game also. In our games (we also use a 75 AP cap), we only allow Defenses upto half the AP cap. For example, 37 PD/ 37 ED would be our max (though we don't count Resistance against the cap as KAs are not more expensive than nomal attacks but do equivalent damage). As 75% Damage Reduction is over 37 APs, we would not allow it. This also applies to Power Defense, Mental Defense, ect. in our game.

[Hugh Neilson]

75% Dam Reduction seems like overkill to me. Granted i'm not that experienced with Damage Reduction since my main group rarely uses them (15 years ago the GMs more or less brow beat us to not use them because it made figuring out balancing harder than it was worth) but from what i've seen even 25% really makes a character with good defenses hard to put down. I'm thinking a character with 30 PD/ED and 50% Dam Res. is the equivalent of a character with 50 PD/ED. With 75% Reduction... I'm not sure what that scales up to 70 PD/ED? Add the high REC to that and the guy will be nearly impossible to put down.

Damage Reduction actually becomes less beneficial the higher your defenses are. Consider a 12 DC average, range 10 DC - 15 DC, really powerful master villains with 18 DC game, for illustration:

Assume I have 30 PD/30 ED. A 10 DC attack gets 5 STUN through. 12 DC gets 12 STUN. 15 DC manages 22.5 STUN, while 18 DC gets 33 STUN through.

I buy 25% damage reduction, and that falls to 3.75, 9, 16.875 or 24.75. Buying +10 PD, +10 ED, resistant would reduce my damage by more at all levels, and significantly more at most levels, for the same 30 points.

I buy 50% and my damage falls to 2.5, 6, 11.25, 16.5. 20/20 Armor at the same cost is again much more effective for the same points.

I buy 75% and my damage falls to 1.25, 3, 5.625, 8.25. 40/40 Armor at the same cost means I never take any damage.

Damage Reduction effectively reduces the value of your defenses, since less damage that gets past defenses has an impact anyway. It would be much more useful to have 10 PD/ED and 50% damage reduction. That would materially reduce the damage taken from typical attacks. That saves me 12.5 STUN from a 10 DC attack, 16 from 12 DC, 21.25 from 15 DC and 26.5 from an 18 DC attack. But only at the highest levels of damage is it superior to +20/+20 Armor.

This is yet another area where AP comparison falls flat on its face. If you want to compare defenses to defenses + dam red, compare average damage that gets through. That's much more meaningful than AP.

[Marcus]

Or, another way to look at it, Damage Reduction lowers the value of your defenses.

If we assume I've already bought 50% DR, then it takes 2PD to prevent 1 point of damage actually getting through to my stun. If I've already bought 75% DR, then it takes 4PD to prevent the loss of one more stun.

In these parts, DR has always been popular with the mid defense, mid-con crowd, because its so useful for mitigating that one magical, high-rolled hit (Stun lotto, or just a good roll on an EV). DR can be a great way to survive the One Big Hit (tm) that so often KOs anything but a brick.

Bricks, OTOH, hereabouts, tend to just buy all the PD and ED the GM considers appropriate, rather than watering that PD and ED down with DR. Theyve got the massive con and stun reservse to shake off a single heavy hit, and get hit alot more, so dont want to face 'bleed through' constantly.

[Corven_Ren]

Actually Nechevo is right 75% DR is a little extreme unless that would be your nly form of defense. I forgot Valeria str went up to 60 so I gues Nechevo is right is that practiaclly everyone is a demi-brick. I like the Quantum write up so keep him in the equation.

[Corven_Ren]

On a suggestion from one of my players, I have decided that they will pick the replacement characters.

Optics can largely be regarded as a sub-field of electromagnetism. Some optical phenomena depend on the quantum nature of light relating some areas of optics to quantum mechanics. In practice, the vast majority of optical phenomena can be accounted for using the electromagnetic description of light, as described by Maxwell's Equations.]

On a suggestion from one of my players, I have decided that they will pick the replacement characters.

I'm taking way to long to get this done. By the time I get done writing it the slots will be filled. So here is what I have. The character is done, but the back ground is in a VERY unfinished state. If I had more time I would make it flow a little better and flush out what would really be said. Anyway, I think it will have to do for now.

FYI - Yes I know I'm over on disads. Hope you don't mind Corven_Ren

Back Ground

---------------------------------------

I was raided my mother, Jessica Jones, in Canada. My dad, Luke Cage, couldn't come around much because the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were always watching us trying to find him. When my Sister and I did get to see him it was always in some strange location and never for as long as I would have liked.

I didn't understand what was going on back then. I must have been to sheltered from what was going on in the would. Yea, se would tell me plenty of stories of what she knew of dads past and what they had done together. She would even try to explain what dad was trying to do for mutants everywhere. Didn't help much. They were just stories to me then, and I just wanted him with us.

Seconded year during high school it started to him me. I was starting to change. I was always stronger then the kids my age, but the difference was becoming freakish. It was fun at first, but one day I smashed in to the ball carrier. I didn’t think it was that hard but he went flying off the field and onto the track. He lived but had to be in traction for a long time. Kids avoided me after that; even most of my friends. I would see them whispering and all, but I didn’t have to put up with it long. The school ended up kicking me out. Mom said it as crap. She tried to fight it, but lost in the end. After all that, she decided to home school me. I think it was for the best. I was able to spend more time with her and I learned a little about being a detective.

So, as time went on, I learned more about what made mom and dad tick. It took me ages get a grip on it. In fact it wasn't till the last time I saw my dad that I truly started to see the big picture. He told me of the past crimes that had been done against weaker people or people that were just different. He didn't want that to happen again, and with the help of the Avenger, they would put and end to it.

A long time past without word form him. I was learning more and more about being a detective, but I keep thing about dad. I wanted to know if he was okay. I wanted to know how the fight was going. Most of all I just wanted to know my dad. Sitting around wasn’t getting me any were, and they say you learn by doing, so I told my mom I was going to move to New York

There were many long nights of talks and some of fights. She really didn’t want me to go. In the end she said that as long as I keep in contact with her she would be okay with it.

Man, things were tough down there. I tried to spend more time in the ghetto then any were else. I wanted to see some neighborhoods where dad started his Hero for Hire business. I saw crimes going on every day. None of them all that big during the day, but at night I could hear it was a different story. Gun shoots, sirens, something always going on.

I keep to my self as I walked along. I didn’t want to get anybody hurt and most of all I just wanted to stay out of trouble. Not one of my most noble of times, but it’s the truth. I started that all of the people down here were all the same, nothing good about the lot of them. I was planning on moving back up with my mom, but fortunately I didn’t. I had the chance to help some people out.

You see, I was going into a pawnshop one evening looking for some DVDs. Everything seemed to be just another day until some gang tugs came in. They started to harass the girl working the counter.

The boss came over, tried to smooth things over
Tugs wouldn’t let her alone
Boss man told’em to leave
They would not
He threatened to call the cops
They didn’t like the threat so, to teach him a lesson, they stabbed him. One started for the money the other was trying to drag the girl out.

I wouldn’t take it any more
They told me to mind my own business.
I didn’t
I took them down
Shop keeper and girl thankfully
Get a job at pawn store
Word got around
I started to do more jobs for people, mostly free
Take on the name avenger
Some lawyer got up set, said the name was already taken
Changed name to Arbiter, but most people still call me ____(original name)___
Got in the news a few times
Offered spot on the team
Took the offer because___________
Still take time out to help the small guy on the street

And that’s were I am now

[Corven_Ren]

I like the idea of Cage's child. Just a couple of things though. Shield is replaced by Until in the campaign world. Also why would Until/Shield be chasing down Luke Cage?

[CoreBrute]

Luke Cage was a criminal, once a drug dealer. In the eyes of SHIELD/UNTIL he is a small time super villain.

Or he may have done something to piss Until off in this universe I don't know.

I just would like for him to come up for some reason in the background. I didn't flesh Cage out in my timeline. Also one note the STR exceeds the starting point cap. 75 Max Active points please

I'm still fine tuning and working on his history but this is what I've got so far.

2) Gave him Analyze Energy and Tracking Energy Trails

I'm still fine tuning and working on his history but this is what I've got so far.

Just a little info on this situation. Tony Stark died with no children. Amanda is the Chairman of the board of Stark Enterprises and her Daughter Aeryka is the Current President as well as being the new Iron Maiden. However if you want him to be Amanda's son that would be fine.

Tony was a drunk for so many years...how can one be sure he had no children?

[Doc Shadow]

Wait a minute now. In your history thread Aeryka is the grand-daughter of Alan Scott and the new Green Lantern, not the daughter of Amanda Stark and the new Iron Maiden. Which one is it?

And I figured that Tony died without kids, so I figured Alex as a grand-nephew, the son of Amanda's brother, TJ, who had no interest in Stark Enterprises but went on to become a movie producer - probably with the help of his inheiritance from 'Uncle Tony'. I assumed Amanda didn't have kids either, since her last name never changed.

Just let me know what's what and I can make changes.

[Nechevo]

I would like for the players who have submitted characters to post their character's hook.

What I mean by that is what is the hook, the thing, that makes you want to play your character? What aspects of the character really attract you to him/her? What's the hook that makes the character important to you?

For example, one of the hooks for my character is that he's Dr. Doom's son, with everything that entails. Victor was brought up as a noble, he's an aristocrat, a perfectionist that expects a lot of himself and those around him and is a bit arrogant. While at the same time he is trying to prove himself, and redeem the family name and to accomplish that he has to be the consummate hero.

One thing is that the campaign takes place 20 years after the time line ends. I have not flushed out those 20 years because of possible origins. Do to how I was working out one of the introductory story lines I game Amanda a daughter and named her Aeryka (a name I really like). After mulling over it we can work it as is though you will just be Aeryka's cousin.

Yes everyone please do this....while I am the GM I am letting the players pick the replacements. One they have decided, then I will talk to everyone about tweaking builds. Also your submissions are due no later than Labor Day.

That would make Amanda in her 60s at least. :nonp:

No wonder Aeryka is Iron Maiden. I'll go to work and see what I can come up with. BTW how long has Aeryka been Iron Maiden and about how old is she? I'm wondering whether they should have a mentor/student relationship or a rivalry.

[Beast]

since both of mine are constructs by Dr Destroyer both are wanting to avoid him and see strength in numbers

Aeryka is only 18 years old and has been operating as Iron Maiden since she was 16.

[Doc Shadow]

Definately a rivalry then. This gonna get interesting.

And if I understand correctly the campaign takes place in 2028, right?

[Corven_Ren]

Yes and if you are chosen there could be a slight rival with another Squad member as we already have one powered armor character.

Growing up, Nate just knew his dad was "an American officer". He learns to deal with not really knowing who his dad was. Then he finds out his dad was Captain Atom! How the heck do you live up to that?! Eventually, he figures out he can't, and so he settles in to living within his limitations. He isn't a slouch. He might not be a world class scientist, but he's competent, and good at this job. Not only that but he isn't one of those guys who can expound on the structure of the universe but can't fix a flat on his car. He is solidly grounded in the real world, too. Not only can he fix a flat, he could rebuild the car from the ground up, and fix the radio while doing it, too. He can take the theoretical stuff and make it practical.

Now BANG! He does have powers on par with his father. Just how WILL he compare to his father, now that he has the same abilities? And yeah, he's no slouch in the science department. Optics is not for the weak of heart. But now he's being brought into the world at the level of Banner, von Doom and Richards? Or trying to assist Moon Knight in following clues?

To mangle a metaphor, he is going to feel like he's going from being a decent sized fish in a small sea to being a somewhat larger fish in a lake populated by whales.

The flip side of it, though, is he's was scientist who studied energy and was involved in the space program. Now he can shoot energy out of his fingers and make to high orbit on his own in less time than it takes most people go pour a cup of coffee from the pot. How cool is THAT?

[Corven_Ren]

Ok people just a little over 24 hours til submissions are final. Here's what I have got so far.

Dr. Strange II- Son of Dr. Strange & Clea.
Silk Detective- artifically created being made from the DNA of Forge & Magik
Quantum- Son of Captain Atom.
Wrath- mutant, infused at brith with the DNA of Binary & Blob.
Zacherias Jones- son of Luke Cage
Iron Man II- great-nephew of Tony Stark.

[Doc Shadow]

I think I'm going to pull Iron Man II out of the running. My original concept of the character has been pretty much torpedoed and I've been having a tough time shoe-horning him into a new one. It would have helped if I'd had the whole story going in.

[Nechevo]

And a reminder to post your character's hook. So far the only character hooks that have been posted are Quantum's and Silk Detective and Wrath's.

What I mean by that is what is the hook, the thing, that makes you want to play your character? What aspects of the character really attract you to him/her? What's the hook that makes the character important to you?

I normally use the term character hook to mean ways the character can get.

I think they want to make sure you're joining the group because you want to play your character appose to playing a character because you want to play in a game.

For instance, I like the fact that Zacherias comes from the family history he has. It's interesting. Nether Jessica Jones nor Luke Cage had it easy in the beginning and I think that would affect their parenting and advice on going and becoming a “tights wearing hero”. I'm looking forward to a character that see what there parents were able to do and then trying to improve on it with the high ideals that younger heroes some times seem to have. I see Zacherias being "fresh off the streets" going at the big times for the first time and that intrigues me.

Hope this is what you were looking for.

[Corven_Ren]

Ok I want to thank everyone for their interest. Submissions are officially closed. My players will debate and once they have made a decision I will announce the new characters here.

[aylwin13]

Would it be possible to post Dr. Strange II, so that we can consider the write-up?

Thanks.

Yes, that's what i'm looking for. The element(s) of the character that makes you want to play him. I find that it helps me get a better handle on the character if I know what attracts the player to the character. It can help me pick up on the little things that make the character interesting that I may not have picked up on just from the character sheet/background. It also makes it easier for me to make suggestions on changes to the character (so that I don't suggest changes that take away from the hook, or so that i think of changes that could improve on the hook).

It also helps see how well the character will fit in the group (extreme example for illustrative purposes: if someone's hook was "I like that he's a borderline psycho and I want to play a character that crosses the line of hero/villain." then he's not going to fit with the Justice Squadron. ) and whether the player will enjoy himself in the game. (ie. if the character hook is being the team's only scientist, the player probably won't enjoy the game since there's already two characters that fulfill that role especially if stats wise the new character doesn't come close to the level of knowledge as Victor and Valeria. )

Here is the write-up for Doc Strange II that he sent me. I accidently erased the Sanctum Snactorium file.

[CoreBrute]

Hey, I'm CoreBrute, the guy who made Dr Strange II (I think somethings got messed up in the hdc file though).

Here is reasons I would like playing him.

1st. His father was killed during the Inferno event, and now he has had to work in his father's shadow. He has had the training and watching of Dr Fate, his god father but now he has the chance to prove himself with real heroes.

2nd. He is a great asset to the team because of his knowledge of matters the others don't understand, namely magic. His knowledge of lost civilisations doesn't go amis.

3rd. His general flexibilty. With his VPP he is quite capable to take on any role in the party, or adapt for any situation or enemy.

I will be sending the corrected version of the character sheet to the GM, as well as posting the sanctum sanatorium up here.

[Short Shot]

More tweaking here. Among other things, I've swapped out a couple of the disads, upped his dex and gotten rid of his combat skill levels, upped his int a bit and freed up some points.

Part of the issue with him is he is new to his form. He would not have been a practicing super hero and so isn't going to have some of the skills you'd one might normally have. My plan there is to hold out those points until after at least one adventure and apply them as Lesson's Learned.

Optics can largely be regarded as a sub-field of electromagnetism. Some optical phenomena depend on the quantum nature of light relating some areas of optics to quantum mechanics. In practice, the vast majority of optical phenomena can be accounted for using the electromagnetic description of light, as described by Maxwell's Equations.]

Personality: Nate is a scientist with abilities both in the theoretical world and in practical world. He wishes to work to improve the human condition, and follow in his father's footsteps
Quote:"Don't call me Captain Atom. My father held that name. He earned the rank of Captain. So far, I haven't earned any name. If you to call me by a name other than the one I was born with, you can call me Quantum".
Background: Son of Captain Atom and Catherine Cobert

Holds dual citizenship between US and and France.

Intiially raised by his mother, he didn't find out who his father was until later. With his combined engineering and science background he worked initially with the French space program. On a join US/French project, a torrorist attack resulted in emergency conditions with with the potential of the destruction of a major city. One of the US scientists, Dr. Andrew Glover, found Nate and suggested they put Nate through the same process that created both Captain Atom and Major Force, stating that he believed the time shift had been compensated for. The process is successful, as is the rescue.

Now he suddenly finds himself in the super human world. With is ability to lift massive payloads up into space as well as repair satilites in place, the French want to use him to "suplement" their space program. Nate himself is reluctant to say the least to put an industry's employees out of work. He also resents being forced into a repairman's slot when he has trained to be a scientist. The offer from the Justice Squadron comes at an oportune time.

[CoreBrute]

I realise my character sheet hasn't been up for the general public yet, so I have put up a version for anyone to see online: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dqkbtr2_0xd8qbhfv

Here is his backstory, which isn't written up.

Born shortly before the Inferno Incident (see here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferno_(Marvel_Comics)), He was given the name of his godfather, Kent Nelson aka Dr Fate. During the Inferno Incident Dr Strange and Dr Fate both took down hundreds of Demons before Dr Strange concucted a plan to close the gate, after Illayna refused to close it herself.

While Dr Fate distracted the demons S'ym (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%27ym) and N'astirh (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%27astirh), Dr Strange would force the gate closed himself, using his incredible will power and strength. However since it was mutant and demon powers he was dispelling it (Illyana had mutated into a demon before creating the gate) he would be very weak and need a lot of time to close the gate.

The plan was working and the gate closed slowly but steadily, and the number of demons reduced until it all went wrong. Dr Strange' arch rival baron Mordo arrived and attacked Dr Strange from behind and caused him to lose control of the spell. The gate then proceeded to draw him into the portal, and Duke Mordo laughed in glee.

But as a last act for the world Dr Strange used him magic to grab Mordo and dragged him into hell alongside him. As the gate closed behind them, Magik resumed control of her body and the two Demons S'ym and N'astrih, their plan foiled, disappeared into smoke.

However it was not a time for rejoicing for the Strange family, and young Kent Strange grew up under the tutalage of Dr Fate, who trained him in the arts and acted as Sorcerer Supreme until Dr Strange was old enough to take his position.

Since then he has fought numerous demons and other worldly threats alongsde his faithful man servant Wong Hamir.

Powers and tactics: A master of magic he can use numerous spells and creates new ones all the time to combat various threats. He usually stays long distance away and strikes from a far, using his cloak to teleport from location to location, And absorbing enemy magic for his own spells but he is no wimp to hand to hand combat. He has trained in Martial arts under Wong for if his magic ever failed him.

One of his greatest gifts is his knowledge of vast subjects iinvolving but not limited to most forms of magic. He is also a trained paramedic and well versed in languages (most dead but still). And his knowledge will only continue to grow as time goes on.

Any thing else you need to know, just post here or PM me.

[Corven_Ren]

First of all I want to apologize for not getting back to this sooner but real life sometimes gets in the way. I want to thank everyone who applied. However the other members of the Squadron have spoken and the following characters have be selected.

Dr. Strange II by Core Brute
Zecherias Jones by Drakkenkin
Quantum by Short Shot.

I have contacted all of these about still being interested and have heard back from Core Brute & Drakkenkin.

Short Shot if you still want to play Quantum please PM me or email me @ jcmcminis@yahoo.com.

Drakkenkin you still need to apply to the campaign at herocentral to so I can get you in.
