Fandom DC Universe: Age of Heroes (Rebooted)

[Field Marshall]

@Vandy made requested edits

 

[Vandy]

Alright, both Wonder Woman and Shazam are accepted by me. Just wait on BMan's approval before you move them over, but good job guys!


 

Dangit, someone took the Flash before I finished my app...I don't have any other characters I want to use and actually know well...

There are plenty of other DC heroes that are interesting left out there.

 

[BMan]

They look good to me. Go ahead and put them in the character section.

...I just had an idea. Making new app.


Character: Green Lantern of Sector 2814(Hal Jordan)/Lantern(his current canon name, due to him not deciding to use the Green Lantern Corps' name yet. Hasn't become how he is in the comics just yet)


Age: 18


Appearance:

Powers/Abilities: Flight, can blast beams from his ring, can create constructs(though he doesn't have enough Willpower to do so just yet), sense Willpower through ring(again, not enough Willpower to do so), can explore space without a helmet safely as long as he has his ring.


Weaknesses: Fear, which, in turn, is weak to Willpower. This should be self-explanatory. You need Willpower to overcome Fear, and Fear can be used to overcome someone else's Willpower. He also generally hates Yellow, which is the color of Fear.


Backstory/orgins: Hal is a childhood friend of army man John Diggle, who convinced Hal to become a test pilot. From there, Hal crashed a plane, right into the current Green Lantern of Sector 2814, who's name is currently unknown. The alien he hit asked Hal to come close. Sensing that it's current master was about to die, the Ring chose Hal, the alien noting and giving Hal the ring. Hal was then told more about the Green Lantern Corps, and the capabilities of the Ring, before the current Green Lantern died, telling Hal to become the new guardian of Sector 2814. Hal obeys, putting on the ring, which projected the suit and mask onto him. He then became Lantern, a vigilante positioned in Coast City.


Arc ideas:


Brightest Day:


Hal Jordan heads to Oa for the first time and meets the Guardians of the Universe, along with his mentor, Thaal Sinestro, and trains under Thaal's tutelage. Things take a dark turn when Sinestro is figured out to be using Fear to keep his Sector under control. Lantern has to make a decision between his good friend and mentor, or the rules of the Corps. After deciding on the Corps' laws, Hal heads towards Oa, only to be confronted and attacked by Thaal.


Rageful Rumble:


Lantern, on patrol of Oa, sights a being in the distance, coming towards Oa, best described as "big, red and angry." Hal reports back to the Guardians of the Universe to find out about it. The first thing Hal was told was it's name; Atrocitus. The being was the leader of the Red Lanterns, and was ALWAYS angry. Hal heads out to ask the being of it's plans, only to be met with a blast to the face in response. The fight then started, Lantern facing off against Atrocitus.


Sinestro Strikes:


Sinestro, during all this, was on the planet Qward, having the Weaponers shape him a ring. And it's finally done. A yellow, glowing power ring that presents the power of Fear to the wearer. Sinestro begins wearing it, with a Yellow Lantern Corps outfit, and attacks Earth, knowing that Earth is the home of Hal Jordan. Lantern fights him back, getting the usual response of people yelling at him to "get out of Coast City" and to "get lost." He ignores this, battling Sinestro.

 

[Vandy]

Okay so you need to expand on your sheet some more. We need a little more beefy backstory and some expansion on powers and weaknesses.

I'm working on my Black Canary CS. I know you want to start soon, but I don't know if I can get it up tonight. :\

[BMan]

Canary looks good so far to me. That other site brought some good players!

  Dinah Drake
  
  A.K.A. Black Canary
  
  Aged: 22​
  
  
  
  
• 
  Dinah Drake is an attractive blonde. She has fair skin, blue eyes and dirty brown hair. She stands at an average height of five foot six. Dinah, like most women, doesn't bulk up and remains slender looking even though she is very physical fit and capable.
  
  
  Dinah doesn't have a costume at the start. However because of the type of work she does on the side, like exotic dancing and stripping, she does appear in this type of outfit after hours:
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Later on she will utilize this uniform in her work:
  
  
  
  
  But for the moment she really just uses whatever she's wearing when she needs to fight. She has no set uniform as of the start of the roleplay.
  
  
  
• Powers: Canary Cry
  
  
  Dinah was born with what she dubbed a "Canary Cry". Because of the instability and it's uncontrollable nature once released, Dinah only uses the Cry as a last resort.
  
  
  The Canary Cry is of a sonic nature. The vibrations of the sound can destroy objects if they're close enough and weak enough. Since she doesn't practice it it's quite raw and only does damage when it's within at least five feet.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Abilities: Dinah is a skilled fighter. She excels in hand to hand combat. She prefers her physical abilities over her natural talent of the Canary Cry. She has very quick reflexes which helps her do more outlandish things, like catch arrows mid-flight or destroy them. She is an expert motorcyclist. She can stunt drive and maneuver in any road conditions.
  
  
  
• Physical: Dinah is a normal person. Other than her Canary Cry she has no super powers. Anything that can hurt a normal person can hurt her, whether magical or mundane. Since she tends not to rely on her Cry until the last moment she often gets more injured than she would have otherwise.
  
  
  Mental: Since Dinah is human she only has those natural defenses against mental attacks. In either magic or mundane origins.
  
  
  Personal: Dinah doesn't have any family that lives near her. But both her parents and siblings are alive. She also has a few close friends and a guy who she wants to date, but he hasn't asked her. If someone were to threaten them there would be nothing Dinah would do to keep them safe. As such she will never tell anyone her real identity if she can help it.
  
  
  
• Dinah was born to loving parents. She was the third child born. Her two elder brothers were three and two years older than her. Her youngest brother was four years. Her younger sister was one. Their names in order of birth are: Ryan, Eric, Dinah, Megan, and James.
  
  
  She was an average child until the fist time she used her Canary Cry. Being such a young girl, it made a large impact on her. The sheer devastation along with her brother's injuries made her realize she could only use her Cry as a last resort. Of course it was thanks to her brothers that they named it the Canary Cry. Dinah's nickname was Canary because of her yellow hair. So it just fit together naturally her brothers decided.
  
  
  When Dinah reached school age she grew interested in martial arts. Her parents enrolled her in a MMA school where she excelled. By the time she was in High School she had won various awards and tournaments. She also became able to get her licence and ride her father's motorcycle. He taught her how to properly care of it and repair it.
  
  
  When Dinah was nineteen she went to college for a year but dropped out. After that she moved to the big city and in order to support herself she works two jobs. One job is her "nice" job. She works at a florist's shop. But that doesn't pay all the bills. So at night she works as an exotic dancer and occasional stripper. The money's great but she always smells of cigarette smoke.
  
  
  
• 1. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
  
  
  Dinah has never been squeamish about getting her hands dirty. When she hears her new boss talking about an arms deal she decides to play all the angles.
  
  
  2. Could Have Been Me
  
  
  One of Dinah's friends dies. None of the cops really cares because she was a prostitute. But Dinah does. She goes to where Candy worked and gets a job, determined to find her friend's killer.
  
  
  3. Renegades
  
  
  Sometimes the law is there for people to feel safe. Sometimes it's just a pretty thing you put on the shelf when you really need things done. When the law fails sometimes Dinah succeeds. Sometimes though you don't find yourself on the side of good after it all ends. But that's why Dinah keeps her life separate. No one ever said Black Canary was the good guy, right?
  
  
  

Alright, so there she is. I hope it is good enough to pass. Haha.

((App redo))


Character: Green Lantern of Sector 2814(Hal Jordan)/Lantern(his current canon name, due to him not deciding to use the Green Lantern Corps' name yet. Hasn't become how he is in the comics just yet)


Age: 18


Appearance:

Powers/Abilities:


1. Flight and Space Defense


When wearing the ring of the Green Lantern, Hal Jordan, among his other powers, gains the ability to fly. He also gains a "forcefield" of his ring's energies, allowing him to breathe in space. This effect, however, does not protect him from attacks.


2. Create Constructs


He doesn't know how to yet, but when the Lantern has his ring, he can create hard-light objects, whether they are small or large depends on how much Willpower he has at the time. To do so also requires his Ring be charged at the Corps' core.


3. Sense Willpower and Light Projection


His ring glows when it's nearby someone other than the wearer who has a great deal of Willpower. This allows Lantern to light up the dark, if required.


4. Lantern Beam


Using the energies for Willpower, Hal Jordan can fire a beam of energy from the Emotional Spectrum, out of his ring. For them to reach past 2 feet, it requires his Ring to be charged. It's the only non-lethal form of the Lantern Beams, due to the "no-kill" rules set by the Guardians of the Universe.


5. Fighting Skills


Hal Jordan is a master of many fighting styles, due to his time in the U.S. Navy.


Weaknesses:


1. Yellow


As pathetic as it is, Hal Jordan and other Green Lanterns cannot effect yellow, mostly due to it's orientation of the Emotional Spectrum being for Fear. However, Green is not the Yellow Lantern's weakness, meaning it's important that he comes across another, less-hostile color.


Backstory/orgins: Hal Jordan is a man who used to work for the U.S. Navy. His friend from the Navy, John Diggle, convinced him to follow in his father's footsteps and become a test pilot after Hal Jordan was relieved of his duties. Hal did so, leaving the Navy base, back towards Coast City. When he got home, he got the job easily, signing up for his father's old slot.


One year later, he crashed a plane, and and hit someone during his descent, if that. Getting out, holding his head(which now had a very large bruise, but luckily, didn't break open), he looked to see who he hit. What he saw wasn't human. He saw a creature in a green and black outfit, with the logo you should all be familiar with as the crest of the suit. It introduced itself as Abin Sur, Green Lantern of Sector 2814. The creature then saw its Ring glowing, both sensing Willpower in Hal Jordan, and knowing that its master was about to die. Abin gave the ring to Hal, and, sensing his time was up, simply told him to "Wear the ring...Feel it's power...And head to Oa..."


The creature then died. Hal Jordan, not even knowing what an Oa is(yes that's a joke part), just put on the ring and hoped it would guide him. All at once, his normal clothing was replaced with the Green Lantern attire, and a mask was placed on his face. Having no idea where to go, he saw something fall out of Abin Sur's pocket; A map of Sector 2814, and how to get from the current Sector to Oa. He then wonders how the heck he'll get into space. Figuring something involving the ring, Hal Jordan raises his ring into the air, and, indeed, the ring allowed him to fly. Smiling, he took off towards Oa, keeping the map in one hand and using the ring in the other.


At Oa, he talked to the Masters of the Universe, gaining knowledge of the Emotional Spectrum, the roles of the Green Lanterns, and other information regarding the Green Lantern Corps. He then decided to, for the safety of everyone, keep the Ring. He then became the Lantern, hero of Sector 2814, particularly Earth, and his hometown in Coast City.


Arc ideas:


Brightest Day:


Hal Jordan heads to Oa for the second time(he was mostly trying to learn how flying works) and meets his mentor, Thaal Sinestro. He trains under Thaal's tutelage. Things take a dark turn when Sinestro is figured out to be using Fear to keep his Sector under control. Lantern has to make a decision between his good friend and mentor, or the rules of the Corps. After deciding on the Corps' laws, Hal heads towards Oa, only to be confronted and attacked by Thaal.

[BMan]

Canary passes for me, good job Possum!


Lantern, I don't know. I think it just needs a little work. He's 18 but worked for the navy for at least a year? I dont know of anyone being in any armed forces for that short amount of time anyway. Powers are good, maybe add another weakness.


Although both of my judgements might be overturned by Vandy, he's ultimately in charge.

 

[Vandy]

Agreed on both accounts BMan. Read his above post for the official GM statement.

 

[Diamond655]

Working on THIRD VERSION, a repost because of an adware glitch that I personally hate.

2. Normal


Apart from the occasional ability of using a Construct to block an attack, he's vulnerable to everything a human can die from.


3. Depowering


He literally cannot use his powers if you take away the Power Battery before he finishes charging his ring. The only things that work are flight(but only at a hover) and constructs(also limited, larger things cannot be built)


Backstory/orgins: Hal Jordan is a man who used to work for the U.S. Navy, until last year, when he was relieved of his duties, due to an argument with Eilling resulting in a man down. His friend from the Navy, John Diggle, convinced him to follow in his father's footsteps and become a test pilot after Hal Jordan was relieved of his duties. Hal did so, leaving the Navy base, back towards Coast City. When he got home, he got the job easily, signing up for his father's old slot.

[Vandy]

Alright, so I posted my first IC post which means we are launching! If it looks familiar to my old players, it is. I am reusing an old story because I never finished it in a way that satisfied me.


 
Lantern looks fine to me now.

 

[BMan]

Alright, so I posted my first IC post which means we are launching! If it looks familiar to my old players, it is. I am reusing an old story because I never finished it in a way that satisfied me.
 
Lantern looks fine to me now.

I did the same with my Batman post. For similar reasons. Let's just go ahead and post those first two... uh posts. That way we can get it out there early.


Also, Lantern is fine if Vandy thinks so. I know he's a big GL fan so if he says you're good to go, I guess you're good to go.

 

[Vandy]

Yeah, I'll go ahead and copy that second post over. You can do that with Batman too.

 

[Diamond655]

Posted in the Apps thread, I assume I can make an IC post now?


((Just to be clear, Lantern's thoughts and speech text will be in green, and Thaal's will be in a dark yellow, but only once we actually get to him being the leader of the Sinestro Corps.))

 

[BMan]

Yep, go ahead and make an IC post. Take your time with it, I promise those posts we just put up took awhile to write. Make sure we can see that dark yellow, make it DARK.


Anyways, I'll get to work on Dawn of Batman III.

 

[Awesome Possum]

Yaya. I'm excited to play BC.

 

[Vandy]

And I shall work on Mob Wars part 3, introducing Lex Luthor! A very young Lex, with hair!

 

[Diamond655]

Lex with hair? That's about as unlikely as Batman with a mustache.

 

[Awesome Possum]

Diamond655, now I have a mental image of Wayne with Iron Man facial hair. Thank you.

 

[Diamond655]

Diamond655[/URL], now I have a mental image of Wayne with Iron Man facial hair. Thank you.

T'was a pleasure. xD

 

[Field Marshall]

LAX is life! By the way would you guys like me to color my text as well or.......?

 

[Vandy]

I like colored text myself. Lex actually has hair in a few versions but loses it due to Kryptonite poisoning. Basically always carrying the stuff gave him cancer.


BOOM! Superfanned!

 

[Awesome Possum]

And losing his hair made him a super villain and to become Clark's arch nemesis. Ah the golden age.


Now you know~
