Eh, I’m less “Rah-Rah, Wave Flags”, and more “Let’s help suffering people who are overworked, underpaid, and underinsured”.

Hi all,

Tress looks like a normal woman... with very long hair :)

In reply to American Woman (msg # 18):

Ah, gotcha.

Still-it would be funnier if you are the only normal looking member of the team of five of us. So the first cover of our comic is you giving the thumbs up to the camera. Meanwhile the rest of us are rolling our eyes (If some of us even have eyes) in your direction but out of your line of sight.

I am a big Doom Patrol fan.

:P

The guys at the comic book store will love that.

Right now, without anyone gaming together yet, having everyone split down the middle might be the easiest.

Probably need to come up with team names and base of operations so I can generate some new locations and get everyone's first issues going.

In reply to Game Master (msg # 22):

Possible team names:

'American Exceptionals'

'US Oddities'

'Abnormal Patrol'

'Aberration Nation'

I’m the Cyborg, then? :-p

I love Doom Patrol, too, the comics and that wonderful show.

In reply to American Woman (msg # 24):

Maybe after he loses his tech?

He was the most mentally normal of all of them.

In reply to Dr Zero (msg # 23):

I like the Exceptionables name personally, maybe just shorten it to that.

In reply to Game Master (msg # 26):

I like that too.

'The Exceptionals.'

Note it does not say HOW we are exceptional. Most of the time we are just exceptionally odd.

hehehe

That's got my vote! Anyone got something better? I am not married to it, as team names can be the hardiest to come up with.

With a name like “The Exceptionals”, should I add “Complication: Toxic Positivity”? XD

Hello all!  Friendly neighborhood shadow beast here!





I can turn into a living shadow bout otherwise just a very pale skinned and inhumanly dark eyed person who is very…. Enthusiastic about dispensing justice.

On that note, I'm probably going to end up pouring a few points into Headquarters, but it's still in a preliminary brainstorming and design phase in my head, so if anyone would like to collaborate or make suggestions, I'm happy to share or discuss.

Oh! Also, hello everyone, I'll be playing Alexis Thomasina Arkel, time-displaced supergenius inventor from 31st century Mars, piloting the War Angel, an advanced suit of powered armor, also from the 31st century. Pleased to meet you all, looking forward to playing.

In reply to American Woman (msg # 28):

If you can get hero points via annoying your whole team, you do it!

:P



Your powers making you uncomfortably weird and gothic also works for being in a team of oddballs and American Woman.

Honestly, I don't know how she has the time for fighting injustice when she is constantly being sued by The Guess Who and Lenny Kravitz...

:P



Always nice to hear from another super genius!

Who would they sue when her powers ensure that nobody connects her with her alter ego?

In reply to American Woman (msg # 32):

I never said they would succeed...

hehehe.

Team Awesome
Super Best Friends
Nightwatch and her Amazing Friends! :p

The Watch Dogs
The Green Wardens
The Sentinel Union
Urban Patrol
The Peacekeepers
The Surveillant
The Powers Alliance
The Capes Club
The Blackshields
The Garrison

Thoughts?

Greetings, all.
Not sure, yet, but it almost looks like the Exceptionals will be day shift and the other group a sort of night shift.
My character is a penitent fallen angel (as in he picked the wrong side and got cast out) trying to find redemption by serving humanity.

Oh, and Lenny won't sue because he doesn't want to have to go to court again while Bachman and Cummings are unwilling to cross the border into the morass to the south.

I can imagine every fight we have afterwards she had to dodge the process server trying to give her the court subpoena. LOL

In reply to Darkling (msg # 36):

Hehehehe!

Also, these papers are for you and you should report to court.

PLEASE DON'T DROP ME!!!"

I go to sleep, get up and go to work, and come back home to 36 posts. You folks are excited to play some superfolks =p

Rather than dividing the roster up alphabetically, perhaps divide the team up by team function would be better? Or perhaps the randomness of splitting the roster alphabetically will make for more dynamic team compositions? Hmmm.

***

Beast Girl is a catgirl with a predator-like camouflage ability. Her ideal team role would be something like a scout-spy/skirmisher-type thing.

BTW, she randomly stops to talk with animals "Hello, Mr. Squirrel. How is your seed gathering going this season?" So don't mind her if she gets distracted talking to an animal in the middle of a battle =3

*Save slimy process server*

*Discreetly dumps papers in trash can, and after shaking pursuit, changes into random woman that the lawyers don’t know or care about*

In reply to Beast Girl (msg # 38):

I think you can work with the group. If you are a cat person most of the time you could fit in with a floating orb of light that talks, a man of shadow, a guy made from ice...and then American Woman. The only one of us who can hold down a day job.

Hehehe.

In reply to Beast Girl (msg # 38):

I’m open to dividing it however you want.  That was just a starting point and just divided the cast in half.

Once we get the groups running I’ll probably also do cross over events and offer solo issues for people who want it.  Those would be tan simultaneously with group storylines and not separately.

Beast Girl is a catgirl all the time. She doesn't shapeshift =3
