The League (LL) (PbP) (No Longer Recruiting)

Updated my picture to 16 yo Phoenix.

You know, I think I will go with Iron Maiden. I was resistant to it earlier because I don't really know much about the band, but I think it works for her.

Hey Crystalite, what would be your thoughts if I made Crystal and Monica into additional parts of my character instead of shoving NPC's upon you, like how Bronymous has Hallows and Gallows?

Gah! When did you guys suddenly become active!?

*deep breath* Hooo...

Okay. Do me a favor: anyone who still has unanswered questions for me, send me a PM or poke me on Skype (crystalitesparks). Because I have completely lost track of what's going on here.

Update again. Added Phoenix's revised, setting-appropriate backstory.

Well, I guess everyone is done with their characters, for the most part? Can we start soon, or do I have to wait to be added to the list of players in the initial post?

I think we still need to give TheCavelry some time, then we'll see.

On an unrelated note, I added a few deatils about all of Serena's siblings in the character notes.

If you wanted to be really nutty, you could take Versatility and have Companion as one of the options.

In other news, finally officially decided to join. I seem to be the lone Normal but I realized an idea I absolutely had to do. Oh, and he doesn't have reflavored telekinesis.

I think you're thinking of the imaginary friend of Sweet Puff.

Crystalite has noted that he'll be out for the first part of this week.

While not completely finished, I present to the group: The Everliving Gentleman.

Ah, I see we go to the same tailor. Always makes the pants a bit too tight, don't you think?

Nice build, but did you notice you only spent 26 ability points and 2000 gold?

He's also missing a Special Move, and a lot of things are unflavored, so I take it he's still in progress.

Yeah, I wanted to get the broad strokes and the backstory done first. Trying to figure out the best way to handle the last little bit.

How tall is he? I only ask because he seems like he'd be a pretty tall guy.

Random Input GO!

Pretty tall as in 6'5" (my brother is that tall) or just at the top of average tall?

I figured that the lack of a Special Move was because he personally isn't rolling dice; it's all conjurations and Warlord talents.

I actually did have him pegged at 6'5".

I hadn't figured out a specific height yet but it seems like 6'5" it is. I'm not the best at approximating weights so what weight sounds like it would make sense?

While I hadn't chosen a special move yet, I will be getting one since there's ways to activate off of summons or talents granted. Plus, IT IS NOT THIS DAY! exists though I don't know if anyone here has it. I wonder if Crystalite will allow us to use sunbeam's rebalanced set of special moves.

Does anyone here have an archnemesis?

Well, I figured Serena was just starting out heroing, so she doesn't have any personally, but given the sheer number of superhero relatives she has, I'm guessing there might be a bit of crossover there.

Given the proportions indicated by the picture (as if you had a choice), I think anywhere from 190-220 might be a good weight range at his height. Maybe.

I technically have an Archnemesis, but I don't think she or anything else related to that particular bit of backstory will ever make an appearance. Too large scale to insert neatly into the DM's setting. There's a reason I have some stuff blacked out in Phoenix's doc.

EDIT: On the other hand, Chain (will link picture later), is much smaller scale and would probably work. I could come up with something for her to work in.

Well, I can tell you that my brother, who is 6'5", has the bone-build of an average guy, and is neither fat nor overly muscular (basically from a distance he looks like a normal guy) weighs about 230 lbs.

Fun Fact: for my entire immediate family, until you put someone of average height next to us, we don't look very tall at all. We are scaled, not stretched.

Picture and brief backstory of Chain, Phoenix's nemesis.

A power nullifier enemy. That's asking the GM to have all sorts of fun.

Thus said the guy playing the Normal...

Yeah, but she can really only do it to one person at a time. Basically has to lasso of truth (read: choke them the fuck out) them into submission, and meanwhile the rest of the team can proceed to pound her into the cement.
