When Realities Collide (OOC)

[CelticREI]

I know you said that it would be ok for people who don't have 3e yet to play if they got permission to use a build from the boards.

So if that still stands & I can get permission then I'm interested in playing Quicksilver.

I should warn you though I've never played M&M at all even though I've owned 1 & 2e & I've never PBPed so I won't blame you if you don't choose me.

Go and find a 3E build of Quicksilver, ask the owner of it if they mind ye using it (most don't mind, but it's good practice to ask) and post it up.

"Every story has a beginning, this is the start of yours"

heh Everyone starts somewhere, like I said in the first post, I don't mind helping folks learn the system (or play-by-post).

Ye have 9.5 hours from when I posted this to get your guy in to have a chance of being in Team 1 (Team 1 closes 10:00am EST Sunday 8/1). After that ye will have a while before Team 2 has their deadline, so don't fret if ye don't make it in time or ye aren't picked for Team 1 ^_^

I'm not sure how complications break down in 3e but I'm imagining Quicksilver's would be something like.

Prejudice- Pietro is a known mutant.
Reputation- Pietro is known as a former criminal & to make morally dubious decisions.
Protective- Pietro will do anything to protect his sister.
Arrogant- Pietro's sense of superiority sometimes gets the better of him.
Impulsive- A moment's pause is an eternity wasted to Pietro.

Power points spent
1 pp spent- Language advantage [Transian]
1pp spent- 1 point of quickness raising it to 11
1pp spent- 1 point of speed raising it to 11
2pp saved for the future

Still awaiting reply from Vermillion on whether its cool to use his Nightcrawler build. Please pretty please Vermillion?

Just sent you a PM, but in case you don't see it in time: Yes, you can use Nightcrawler.

[JBeatnik]

woot woot! I'm ready to go then.

[CelticREI]

Man, ye folks are making this hard heh.

1.25 hours left for anyone debating to get in for a chance on Team 1 ^_^

[CelticREI]

And TIME. Alright folks, bring your tests to the front of the class and get ready for your scores ;)

Edit in:

This was a hard choice... trying to balance each character so that there isn't much overlap in the Team, and even more...

I'll be PMing the folks that made Team 1 (to make sure they are still here) as well, but to publicly announce:

Ambrose Chase.
Backlash.
She-Venom.
Starfire.

Congrats folks, ye are Team 1. I'll be posting up your starting point in the DC IC thread in a little while.

There are 4 very nice characters left, and I *really* didn't want to cut any from team 1, but the great thing is that I have 2 more teams I can fill... which got me thinking: I have 4 characters right now that I love. So:

Nightcrawler.
Plutonian.
Quicksilver.
Taskmaster.

Congrats folks, ye are Team 2 ;). I'll be posting your starting point in the Image IC thread in a little while.

That leaves us with only Team 3 to go!

I'm going to leave this a recruitment thread until next Sunday 8/8 at the same time 10:00am EST. If we get 4+ more characters, awesome we'll get a Team 3 then. If not, I'll take recruitment down for a bit and try for a Team 3 a bit later.

OOC for all the Teams will be held here, that way I can make announcements that effect everyone and not need to post in multiple threads heh. If I am talking to a specific Team I'll put in big bold letters which team (or which member) I'm speaking to.
As I said in the first post, when Teams shift to another Universe, ye will post in that Universe's IC thread (even if that means ye are not posting in the same thread as your Team, or even if ye are posting in a thread with another Team in it.) All the Teams will meet one another in different ways and I plan on this being very fun to do so ^_^
I created a wikispaces for this game and will be putting everything in order for it as well as quick recaps so someone not following along with each post can still understand what is going on. I'll post the link up for that once I have it a bit more polished and presentable ^_^

I look forward to gaming with all of ye ^_^

[BlindPugh]

First off congrats to everyone for getting in.

Just a few questions, is Berior's Plutonian a known hero in the MU or has he just appeared?
If he's been around a while has he been in any teams?

[CelticREI]

He's been around for a while, so I'd say he would be known. Though as for any teams, I'll leave that up to his player to decide. I don't mind either way ^_^

And now both starting posts are up! Check them out and lets have some fun ^_^

[CelticREI]

A quick OOC note, them Team 2 folks can thank me getting "Batman: Under The Red Hood" for them fighting Amazo lol

[Severance]

Amazo does not bode well for me. Especially when I don't know what he's got working under his hood.

[MindCrush]

I'd be happy to join team 3. Are you looking for more characters from one of the three universes in particular or should I just submit whatever comes to mind?

MindCrush

We are pretty well rounded, Ambrose Chase, Backlash and Starfire are from DC/Image (Wildstorm eventually was pulled into DC, thus with Image and DC there is some serious overlap heh) Blink, Nightcrawler, Plutonian (flavored), Quicksilver, She-Venom and Taskmaster from Marvel. And like I said before Ambrose Chase and Backlash can be considered Image.

So looking at it again, we have a ton of Marvel characters lol.
DC and Image could be filled out, though ye are free to any universe, I didn't put a limit to where and how many when it comes to the universe thing.

[CelticREI]

Amazo does not bode well for me. Especially when I don't know what he's got working under his hood.

I'm sure Tasky is going to find out pretty soon heh. Hopefully on one of his more durable temporary allies ^_^

I actually squeaked when I saw who we were fighting
