Yah...that screenshot is really cool!

Yah, I like that a lot! He makes me wet my pants...

::drip::

OMG! That is so cool! Good luck with the head!

1) Would the 'Other' be E's Therapy Group one?

2) I vote for The Aftermath because I think we could use our powers most out of the box and would give us many chances to have conflict, mental, physical, emotional, etc., etc., etc. Also, I have always wanted to rebuild Paragon City...

::Starts Scheming his ultimate death ray::

Ohmigawd, I can't stop editing...

We should have a vote on the three...unless someone else is developing an idea...


Note: I have school starting Monday so I couldn't post during the day...would this be a problem? (I would probably get home 'round 3:30-4:00 EST)

These are cool. I have one I'd like to pitch as well:

AFTERMATH

In a world much like the depicted "post-apocolyptic" fictional setting they read about as children in sci-fi comics, metas and other super-natural beings find themselves the only survivors of a real nuclear wipe-out- a real holocaust. Now, bound by the need to rebuild the world they inhabit from what is left, heroes and villains alike must ally themselves with one another to accomplish a common goal- one more important than any arch rivalry- they must rebirth an economy, from nothing.

This gives everyone an opportunity to use their powers to whatever need necessary, it provides plenty of characterization by alloting your character the space to have emotion towards issues- from the holocaust itself, to the reactions of having to work with others you thought would never be sided with you. Finally, it offers up a setting where there'd be plenty of social interaction, with opportunities for arguments and even fights to occur when the timing is right. All that, and it doesn't discriminate against heroes or villains...they'd all be present.

I also like this...it lets people use their powers outside of the box like I said above.

Oh, I like that idea! The Clinic and the Assylum are my favorite ideas so far.

When you said: [ QUOTE ]
...would be opportunities to have controlled practice in Rehab sessions...

[/ QUOTE ], I instantly thought of things like when the X-Men in [u]New X-Men: Academy X[u] would play basketball, and would use thier powers to score baskets or hinder their opponents. I would love to be able to do things like that in the clinic because it would be interesting to see how people use their powers outside of the Kill- the-Bad-Guys-As-Fast-As-Possible-box. Also, it would be cool if some of the staff were superheroes. For example: A Fire/Fire Blaster or Tank as the cook or a Mind Dominator/Controller as the receptionist, or a...well you get the idea

1) Just wanna' have fun and explore a little deeper into my character's history.

2) Maybe 2 or 3...very max, I think, should be 5.

I liked Eisregen's idea and I read a little of AH-101 and something along that lines would be cool too.

Maybe something like a Longbow / [whatever Recluse's team is called] training facility? I dunno, I guess that would kind've not allow mercenary/'lone wolf' characters.

Hmm...how about:


The Takeover

Lord Recluse's servants have taken over Paragon City. The heroes have been forced into hiding and each day, the city of Paragon becomes more influenced by Lord Recluse. But as a final stand, a group of heroes have band together to try and send Recluse and his forces back to the Rogue Isles.

This would allow all types of heroes to be involved: Street-style (Back Alley Brawler, for example), Traditional hero (Like Statesman and Sister Psyche), and even the loners (Think of how Manticore finally joined the Freedom Phalanx in the comics).

Whatd'ya think?

Do we just want to start one ourselves?

So that's why my pants caught on fire last week...

Yes, I would love to hear an update on this.

Therapy Group X

A high security asylum somewhere in the Rogue Isles. Some people just pass through, but most stay forever. Some of the inmates are captured heroes, some are villains who consider the whole thing a vacation -- or are too dangerous even for Recluse to let run free, but too valuable to kill outright. Of course, the characters would likely be some of the more lucky inmates who didn't end up being used to power a drone or as spare parts for the Facemaker or for whatever makes people scream in the basement all night long.


Likely not everyone's taste, but at least I made a suggestion, heh.

[/ QUOTE ]

I kind've like that idea...maybe some of the heroes and villains we play would try to work together to escape? (Y'know like Hero/Villain Pocket D mishes)

So, who else has idea's for setting/storyline?

An idea for setting just popped into my head...The Brightstar Intergallactic Refuge Center. Heroes from all galaxies (ours included) come to this space station to seek aid against a world takeover, (i.e. Rikti) Rise of a super super-villain (Imagine Recluse w/o a Statesman to help), etc...Each poster would have a hero that came to this refuge center or have a hero/human who runs it and they form a supergroup and do intergalactic missions and what not. What do you guys think?

Sounds like fun! I would like to join with either Diamond's Ace (hero) or A.C. (villain). Would we be teenagers or adults? Diamond's Ace is an adult, A.C. a teen...I guess I could turn A.C. into a hero if necessary...I'll bookmark this and keep reading the updates.
As for suggestions, even though there are a ton of highschool ORPs, it would be cool if we did something like Hero 101...never read any of AH-101 but I will get to it since that is mentioned a lot here.

Dang, this is good writing...It makes me want to make an Electric/Electric blaster.

One suggestion: Maybe revising the part where she first uses her powers. IMO, I think it would be cool if the energy didn't come from her fists on command, as if the fury and blind rage inside her coaxed her power out of hiding, like this:



Maybe it was anger over being brutally attacked for no reason whatsoever, maybe it was repressed memories from her other life, or maybe she had just decided to stand up for herself and fight for a change. She would never really know why, or how, she did it, but Lara clenched her fists until they bled. Every molecule of raw energy seemed to gather at her bleeding fingertips. They began to glow, glow with pure, radiant energy. The hunters were about to become the hunted.

The blue energy seemed to pour from her body, through her clenched fists, striking he would-be murderers in the heart. The electricity, so fierce, that the sound alone shattered every window on the block, and liquified every last inch of organic tissue inside their metal skeletons. When the dust settled and the smoke cleared, nothing was left of her victims, except twist metal statues thrown hundreds of yards out of the alleyway. Lara fell to one knee, drained. Not only had she used the energy in her surroundings, but all her own energy as well. She was left exhausted. This is the beginning of the story of Lara Bolt.

This is just an example of what I was talking about above. It is a great piece, can't wait to hear more.

((Before you guys read this, you should know I am only a 12-year-old writer that writes for enjoyment. So, this is probably not going to be that good but, here goes nothing! Also, even though my character is Natural origin, I stated he is Magic because it fits my in-game description))

Back Alley Scrapper-Magic Broadsword/Invulnerability Scrapper

It was dark, really dark. Kyon Smith lay there in sub-conciousnous, trying to stay awake...trying...trying... His eyelids closed, his mind went blank, his soul went cold.
He awoke the next morning laying on the floor...'What was he doing on the floor?' he pondered. But wait, something was different...he didn't smell the Lilac Glade Air Freshener, he didn't hear the sizzling of his wife's cooking...something was different... He tried to open his eyes, but although he felt his eyelids move, they stayed shut. Shut? No, they were open. He was enveloped in neverending darkness. He tried to breathe but the darkness just moved closer, suffocating him, filling his lungs with shadows. He panicked, but the darkness held him firm to the ground...He couldn't move. He couldn't breathe. But wait! In the distance, a glow! No, it was just his imagination. His mind going insane in the darkness. But then, the glow got brighter, the glow got bigger! It was real! He cried for it to help him, but no words came out. The light suddenly stopped, and grew fainter and dimmer, smaller and smaller. ' WAIT!!!! ' his mind shouted! ' PLEASE!!! HELP ME!!! PLEASE HELP!!! ' It was then that the light stopped once again, and then rapidly grew faster and faster! Speeding towards him! And then, the darkness was gone. All he saw was pure light. And the voice, the voice he remembered had spoken to him. It had said, "Hello Kyon. Don't worry, you are safe here. You are safe...you are safe..."
"I am safe." He finally replied.
"The car crash, killed you, Kyon--"
"WHA--"
"Have no fear. We have saved your family. They are safe with ss. But we saw your true soul, Kyon. We saw your potential, therefore we gifted you. We gifted you with the Power. The Power to truly love..."
Kyon crossed the busy Atlas Park street, heading to City Hall. He donned his traditional clothes, black tanktop, blue baggy pants, black sunglasses, and, strangest of all, his black metal gaunlets. In his hand was a blade. It was three inches wide, two inches thick, and weighed in at around two-hundred pounds! As he walked, he seemed to bend the light around him, producing fantastical colors and beams of light. He walked up the steps and saw the enormous statue of Atlas.
"So this is the City of Heroes, eh?" he chuckled to himself.


The End

((The reason I ended where I did, was because no one knows much about the famed Back Alley Scrapper. He is a man of shadows and trusts almost no one. Explore the realms of your imagination to uncover the rest of his story. Have fun! =) ))

See ya' Cuppa...we will all miss you here. :*(

Oh wow! I love this guide! Another tip:

If you know someone with a cool name (Rohan (Indian), Yesmina (Indian?), Sana, Lawton (English), Ulrich (German), etc.

When I made my defender, a girl at school had a really cool name so I used it, alas I created Yesmina Glint (yesmina is pronounced Yez-me-nah)

I like the idea of making it able to put team fly on it so you could fly with it *starts dreaming about flying with a beautiful red ball named Fabio*
