I thought we should get some game started so I’m putting it out there and seeing if anyone would want to play this scenario. I call it…. THE NEW LEGION Setting: This takes place 20years into the future from the currant game being played in Yahoo Groups. (Note: If you are a new member and do not know what I am talking about pm me and I will explain everything. ) A lot has changed. After the second coming of Dark Side an epic battle raged throughout the galaxy. The United Planets disbanded. Alliances were made and broken. There were many losses on all sides. And the Legion was right in the middle of it. Very few of its members Survived and the few that did left the Legion in order to help their home worlds or perhaps just to forget the horrors they saw in battle. Without the UP words became cut off from each other creating their own governments. Some of these planets have created small paradises where others festering Hell holes. Space Travel is still possible though it is quite a dangerous task with many marauders and bandits just waiting for easy targets. Recently rumors of a new Legion have been floating around. Not much is know about this new Legion other than they meet at the ruins of the old Legion headquarters on earth between 5 and 8pm. ((For any new members the story so far. Rosa Garcia/ Sight Jack was the one who had started the rumors in hopes of restarting the Legion. So far only one person has shown up. The son of Mano, Omega. For anyone who wants to jump in you will be able to meet Sight Jack and Omega at the runes of the old Legion building. If you still need help jumping in PM Kittykaboom.)) Rules: (some of these rules will not be the same as what the form rules state and there for are only to be used in this forum thread. These rules are also subject to change at any time. Announcements will be made if that happens. ) Player Characters (PC) I am going to keep this a first come first served when picking characters. If you have a character in the Yahoo Groups and it has already been taken that’s just tuff luck. (check character list to see what has been taken.) I would also like to state that if you know a character is already taking by someone else in Yahoo Groups try not to pick that character. Its just the right thing to do. Try and keep your max number of PC characters to two or three. Privet Message me with a bio of your PC so I can post it up in the character list. (you can also post it up again when you start playing the PC) You can not Kill PC’s When Playing a PC write in First Person With the name it front of the statement. EX: THE MAN: I walked over to the punk and grabbed him by the wrist, “I am the man.” I say to him. See PC to NPC and NPC to PC if you no longer want to play your PC’s Non Player Characters (NPC) You can come up with as many NPC as you like NPC can be played by anyone at any time. Privet message me a bio of your NPC so I can post it up the character list. (you can also post it up again when you start playing the NPC.) You can kill NPC. When Playing a NPC write in second person with NPC in front of the name then the statement. EX: (NPC)THE PUNK: The young kid did not know what to do with this guy grabbing him by his wrist. “Don’t hurt me.” he said, “I’m just some punk.” See PC to NPC and NPC to PC if the character you wanted is an NPC PC to NPC and NPC to PC NPC can become a PC when any player decides to take up that character permanently. They must announce that they are taking full control and Privet Message me so I can update character list. PC can become a NPC when the person playing it decides they no longer want full control of the character. They must announce that they are making their Charter an NPC and Privet Message me so I can update character list. Dealing with Inconsistencies in game: There are going to be inconsistencies in this game. My best advice is just go with it. If someone says your character had an affair in the past just play along. If it really doesn’t make sense then just pull out something like “A Wizard did it.” or “it must have been my evil twin from another demotion.” The DC universe is full of take back stuff like that. Use your best judgment when playing and have fun. Edited by Kittykaboom, Sep 10 2009, 10:55 PM.

Character List!! BIO’s should look something like this Hero’s Name Real Name: Age: * Height: Eyes: Hair: Skin: Powers: More info: * (*note: if you are playing one of the characters form the original Yahoo group remember to add 20 years to their currant age. And thinkabout what might have happened to them in the last 20 years.) Player Characters already taken. ![]() SIGHT JACK Played by Kittykaboom Real Name: Rosa Garcia Age: 37 Height: 5’4’’ Eyes: None Hair: curly brown Skin: light brown Powers: Can high Jack the sight and hearing of others with out their knowing. Can only be blocked by magical means. Also has a chip implanted in her brain that prevents psychics from reading her mind. More info: Rosa has done much adventuring in her time and it has left many a scar on her both inside and outside. She has been everything from a hero to Villain fighting alongside and even ageist the Legion. Now as time has gone on and the Legion disbanded she finds herself wanting to make amends for the sins of her past. She has sent out rumors about a new legion in hopes people will come and she can be a part of creating the new dream and a better tomorrow. SHADOW LASS Palyed by Harkonan_Dude Real Name: Tasmia Mallor Age: Unknown Height: 5’10 Eyes: Blue Hair: curly black Skin: blue Powers: Tasmia can project fields of complete darkness. She's also the Shadow Champion of Talok IX since the destruction of Talok VIII so she's also trained in various fighting arts and can kick SO much ass and can wield almost any weapon she lays her hands on. INFERNO Palyed by Harkonan_Dude Dirk Morgna Unknown Age 5'11 Strawberry Blond Blue eyes Pale skin Powers: Can control light and heat and can generate the same. ![]() OMEGA played by Sunflare2k5 Real Name: Vartok Gaterra II Age: 16 Height: 5'7" Eyes: White (faceted) Hair: Cobalt blue/purple Skin: Black Powers: Vartok is able to disintegrate objects, either by touch or by a short-range beam; the beams can be fired from either hand, thanks to the bioengineered corrections to his metagene. Internally, these disintegration energies act as a hyper-immune system; he is unaffected by poisons, drugs, and diseases. His Klirnian crystal symbiotes allow him to absorb energies from across the electromagnetic spectrum, especially hard radiation and cosmic rays. Vartok uses these energies to sustain him without the need for food, water, or air (though he still will eat and drink for the flavors). Like all Angtui, Vartok's faceted eyes allow him a far greater range of peripheral vision than standard humanoid eyes. They also allow him to see through smoke and fog; an adaption needed for the thick atmosphere Angtu possessed. More info: Vartok is the son of Seth Gaterra, formerly known as Mano. Seth's work in recovering treasures stolen by the Fatal Five (as well as other supervillains), showed that he had indeed been controlled into committing crimes under Tharok. While this did mitigate his legal sentencing, it did not bring acceptance from the public. Seth had retired to a asteroid miner's platform in the Angtu system, until one last cache of Tharok's weapons brought him back out... Because one of the "weapons" there, was an embryo grown from a cell sample of Seth's; a plan for Tharok to have a new Mano, this one completely compliant to his will. No-one else wanted the child, and the law couldn't justify destroying an infant, so Seth took him in as his son. He raised the child alone, preparing him to be an honorable warrior. And with the formation of a new Legion, Vartok has the chance to make that happen... ![]() VIOLET Hero’s Name Violet Real Name: Salu Digby Age: *37 Height:5 foot 6 inches Eyes:Violet Hair: Black with streaks of silver Skin: Caucasian Powers:Violet has the superhuman ability to vary her size. Originally, she could only shrink (down to subatomic sizes, if necessary), but after the original Leviathan's death, the Emerald Eye bestowed her with his power to grow to giant sizes as well. More info: After the events of 3009(current posts on yahoo list regarding the death of Tharok,Violet quit the Legion of Super Heroes.THis caused a strain in her new engagememt to Lightning Lady.After the Legion fell apart and the chaos that hit the galaxy,Violet returned to Imsk to help her family and lost all contact with Ayla.It has now been 5 years since their last contact and the battle-hardened Salu returns to Earth with hopes of finding her once great love again......... Hero’s Name Lighnining Lady Real Name: Ayla Ranzz Age: 38 Height: 5'6 Eyes: blue Hair:red Skin:caucasion Powers:ability to generate lightning from her body More info:After the trial of Furyian for the murder of Tharok, Ayla and her fiancee Salu quit the legion. Unfortunately this did put a strain on their relationship. They went there separate ways. They still loved each other but events seemed to conspire to keep them apart. Ayla became the champion of Winath. Now with the new legion forming Ayla is hoping to be reunited with her Lady Love, Salu. The chances are slim but that could be applied to anything these days. Ayla is willing to gamble that the Legion will rise again and she knows she must be a part of it! Non-Player Characters none Edited by Kittykaboom, Nov 9 2009, 02:17 PM.

![]() SIGHT JACK: It is a clear day today. I can feel the Rays of the sun on my face and a cool breeze kissing my cheek as the evening sets. I sit at the ruins that were once the famous Legion HQ with my seeing eye dog Kafka beside me. I wait in hopes someone will come. Anyone who believes the Legion can come back. I take a long drag on my cigarette and hold my watch up to the dog so I can see the time through his eyes. About an hour till 8 then it will be time to go. Don’t like to be out here at night. There is a curfew around here and the police are just looking for an excuse to do some target practicing. Edited by Kittykaboom, Jun 19 2009, 07:43 PM.

OMEGA: It's been a long journey from the Asteroid Archipelago to Earth, but it's a necessary one. The Legion had spared my father's life; it is past time that debt was repaid! This world seems so strange; blue above me rather than the darkness of space. The breeze ruffles my hair, letting the purple iridescence glimmer briefly. Ahead of me is a ruined bulding... do they keep it in this state as a memorial to the fallen? I head closer.... |

SIGHT JACK: Kafka pokes his head up and gives a slight growl. Someone was coming. The question is would they be friend of foe. I gave Kafka a good scratch behind the ears to settle him down. “Hello is someone there? Listen I’m just a blind lady with her dog just trying to enjoy the evening . I have nothing worth taking so there is no need for any trouble.” I took another puff of my cigarette and use Kafka’s eyes to see who is approaching. |

OMEGA: I blink at this news; no wonder she didn't react to my appearance? There aren't many people with crystals embedded in their bodies; as I think that, they mentally hum back at me, sending a note of curiousity. ~No worries, little ones... just thinking of you.~ I send to reassure them. "Milady, rest assured that I would never seek to do you harm. It would be completely honorless of me!" I reassure her as I move closer. "You may call me Omega -- and you are..?" |

SIGHT JACK: “Mis. Garcia if you please.” I said with a smile. There was no need to tell him my full identity yet. “Its nice to see a friendly if not honorable face in these parts. No pun intended.” I got up and dusted off my pants. “And this cute little fella here is named Kafka. Go say hi boy.” I gave Kafka a nudge and he trotted over to Omega and began to sniff him for weapons of some sort. “sometimes he can be a little aggressively friendly with strangers but don’t worry. His bark is worse than his bite. What brings you to this sad grave if you don’t mind me asking?” Edited by Kittykaboom, Jun 25 2009, 12:24 AM.

OMEGA: "I had sought the Legion -- this is the memorial of their past, but where then is their future?" I reply, letting this animal approach me. A dog, she called it? I'd heard of them, but not seen one in person. <Tag Sight Jack> OOC: No weapons to be found on Omega, unless you count his hands.

SIGHT JACK A smile came to my face. I gave a bit of a chuckle and put out my cigarette. He seemed like a nice fellow but I still needed to test him to see if he had good intentions or not. “I’m sorry son but the Legion is no more. This place is not so much a memorial but the chard remains of what once was. Come here Kafka.” I called for the dog. He scampered over and butted me with his head in an affectionate manner. I grabbed on to his harness and started to walk towards Omega. “Its getting late. There is a curfew around here and it won’t be safe to be out here much longer. Do you think you can help me get home? It’s not far from here. It’s an abandoned hotel about a few blocks away. Usually I would rely on Kafka here but lately there has been a squirrel he likes to chase and he’s been getting me lost.” I leaned over and scratched Kafka behind the ears. “ You should know better hu boy?” <Tag Omaga> Edited by Kittykaboom, Jun 26 2009, 05:20 AM.

OMEGA: Internally, I sigh; I was afraid that the rumors would prove untrue. But... I can still try my best to be a hero, even if it is alone? "You certainly deserve a better place of sanctuary than that, Ms. Garcia?" I ask her. "But if that is your home, it will do for now." I pause, then ask, "Do you mind my walking at your left side? I'm left-handed, myself, so it's easier for me to defend you from that position." Unless she objects, I take my place at her left side. <Tags!> |

SIGHT JACK “Not a problem,” I said holding out my left hand. “Its just north of here. The Rising Moon Inn I think.” Kafka walked alongside my right and I switched back and forth my powers from him to Omega. Omega had the better eyes but Kafka hearing was far superior. Switching back and forth defiantly gave me a good idea of my surroundings. We were ok for the time being. “You are right about my living arrangements here. Most people do not live out here. Not enough water. But I have rooted a nice little life here and there are not too many raiders.” I waited until we came halfway down the street before I started the next test. I clicked my tongue slightly and discreetly gave Kafka three taps on his back to signal him to run the long way home. This was a trick I thought him to help lose any possible raiders who might be trying to follow him home. He darted off to the side of us. “Kafka NO!” I yelled after him. “It must be that squirrel again. Please Omega you have to go after him. Without him to guide me around I will be totally lost. You have to go catch him!” I waited to see how Omega would act. <Tag Omega Edited by Kittykaboom, Jun 27 2009, 05:21 PM.

OMEGA: "But what about you?" I ask, then shake my head. "Wait here!" I tell her, then take off after the dog. I don't like leaving her alone, but she'd be worse off in the future without that guide dog. "Stop! Halt! ...at ease, for stars' sake!" I feel utterly ridiculous, but it's the price I must pay it seems. <Tags!> |

SIGHT JACK: I stand there and try not to burst out laughing. I wait a few moments until I am sure Omega and Kafka are out of sight. I then take off in an other direction. Most times I don’t like to move around so fast without some eyes to guide me, animal or mechanical, but I knew the area well enough that I could navigate blindly. I made it to the back lot of the Rising Moon Inn and waited for Kafka to lead Omega here. I took a quick look through the boy’s eyes to see how they were doing. I couldn’t help but give a little snort seeing the maze Kafka was leading Omega thought. They would be here soon so I sat down and waited. Edited by Kittykaboom, Jun 27 2009, 05:48 PM.

OMEGA: ~Animals... are definitely over-rated!~ I think to myself as I run after the dog. It's a good thing I'm not carrying much in my pack, since this beast is leading me on quite a chase, But finally it starts to slow down a bit as we approach a building. Almost there... almost got it..? <Tags!> |
