Egyptoid Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Yes you read that right. This is the title of Egyptoid's new CHAMPIONS campaign. Here's the premise: design a character that is the child of 2 MU characters. for added zest, they must be of opposite persuasions. So a mother villainess will have bedded a heroic man, and of course the heroine mother had relations with a villain. The classic first example was the son born to BLACK CAT after an untimely liaison with SPIDER-MAN The next love child, born to X-Foe SPIRAL had been fathered by X-Canuck WOLVERINE and it gets worse: the off-spring of LILANDRA , one-time romance of Xavier was fathered by UNUS the UNTOUCHABLE , the force field guy. and we havent hit bottom yet: unbelievably the ANCIENT ONE, teacher of Doc Strange, impregnated the wily UMAR, mother-in-law of Doc Strange WHY WHY WHY? well I'll tell you next post.

Their Team HQ is cleverly disguised as EASTERN STATE, a local institution for those who for various reasons have doctors who wear white coats caring for them. Yeah, Yeah. but WHY!

Egyptoid Posted January 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Re: Love Child of the Marvel Universe This whole thing started 24 years ago when the In-Betweener got into a snit with Baldur. they both summoned up vast armies of heroes and villains to fight for them in a cosmic showdown the likes of which hadnt been seen since they did this last summer in that years big secret crisis. Well for 17 issues and 23 crossovers it looked like the In-Betweener was going to beat up on Baldur, scatter his minions, and worst of all, Prove His Big Point in a Monologue. Hero after Hero had gone down for the count, and it looked like, that for three of them, this would be a Final Death: even for Marvel. Things were going so very bad for the good-guys. So just when the Watcher couldnt hold his water anymore due to the suspense, the In-Betweener had Baldur nailed down to a big asteroid that was about to plunge into the sun. He had already called in all his markers from his Norse-Kin like Sif, Valkyrie, and Thor. There was no-one to save him. Rubbing salt in his Wounds, Loki, (who was in 8-inch-tall action-figure form due to a mishap over in She-Hulk #4OO.) Loki sat on Baldur's shoulder, just laughing and laughing at his cousins dire plight. So, I'll spare you the boring details of the In-Betweeners grand old monologue, but the climactic finale of all that verbiage led to a moral dilemma: Baldur had three choices, the third was to die burned up in the sun. The other 2 were to simply either deny Love or deny War. If he denies War, Evil triumphs sooner, as the world cannot fight back. If he denies Love, Evil triumphs later, as the world is full of hate. ...and he must choose soon, as the sun nears... Now that Baldur has heard IB's final terms, he knows how screwed he is, because the ultimatum makes even less sense than what comic writers usually spew out when they put on their "cosmic" thinking caps. So Baldur thinks and thinks: If he dies, Ragnarok starts, if he denies War, the world goes into an orgy of repression of the defenseless, and if he denies Love, the world goes into an orgy of Hey Wait A Minute. Why does In-Betweener keep using the word orgy in his monologue? Baldur feigns acceptance, and tells IB he's ready to make his choice. IB eagerly awaits the coice. Baldur declares to all listening, in a bold 72 point font, the he "denies Love and everything in between Love and War while were at it." th In-Betweener starts laughing in triumph, and then hiccups a little as he stops to figure out the implications. Meanwhile, Baldur's regen has been working during the long speeches, and the mystic bonds let him go, because he has made his choice, but since he has no weapons or armour, he takes off his comics-code loincloth, and then all the females around remember that he's the god of love as well as light, and they're all in the mood suddenly. So everyone in the Marvel universe got laid in that issue, except three people: When the love spell went off prematurely, most people were lucky and were near someone they already liked (ie Reed & Sue), or someone they respected (Sundragon, Mr.Sinister). Some were completely hosed, like Rogue and Absorbing Man. but the three exceptions deserve mention. A. The In-Betweener sailed right on into the sun trying to figure out what all was implied in proving a negative. B. The Watcher did a lot of watching that day I can tell you. C. Loki couldnt perform for various reasons. Excelsior! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterBaldy Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Re: Love Child of the Marvel Universe How about the "love child" of... Thanos and the Scarlet Witch? Galactus and Wasp?

Blue Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Re: Love Child of the Marvel Universe I'd go Scarlet Witch and Dr. Strange. (Now there's some strange magic!) Wasp and many people, after conjugal visits to the "Big House" super-prison where they store superpowered criminals through use of Pym Particles. Vision and Jocasta. A little android lovin'. Ultron and the Shield Hellicarrier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egyptoid Posted January 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Re: Love Child of the Marvel Universe well I've got total vindication. this is the best campaign idea ever. this is the best thread ever about a campaign. DEFENDERS #5 just came out. in it there is implied relations between UMAR and HULK. that is awesome. nine issues later, what will we have? I ask ya?!?!? and inicidentally, from a Champions gaming POV, Hulk uses the brick trick right out of the ultimate brick book to poke right through Dormammu's defenses (IMHO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultron and the Shield Hellicarrier. So the Wasp would be a total s1ut and work her way down death row? Kinky! No idea who the father is, eh? That's worth about 45 pints of mystery disads right there. Our gaming group paired ULTRON with the intelligent ship from Power Pack. Jocasta had to make do with MACHINE MAN. Both cases, FIXER would be the mid-wife.

Hermit Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Re: Love Child of the Marvel Universe [*]Umar and Captain America? Born to them is a daughter that the good Captain rescues and raises as best he can. However, magic is in her blood as much as super soldier serum is in his. While he's traditional, she's New Age; but both believe in the American Dream. Soon, she becomes the Patriotic pagan heroine known only as "American Athame"!
