'ello ^_^
Hi I'm Taylor and my character is a hero named Peter Monroe, he has pyrokinesis/pyrogenesis. Peter is a high school senior with a guilt complex the size of Texas. He blames himself for his parents deaths and became a hero in a effort to make up for that. He is a very emotionally driven person which can be good because it gives him good empathy towards others but it also leads him to act first and think later. Peter doesn't have any connects currently in the hero world (or that many in the normal one either) but I'd love for him to make some. In normal life he is reserved, and shy where as as Phoenix (his hero name) he acts incredibly confident, almost cocky.

I look forward to RPing with everybody here. ^_^ You can get a hold of me through email: lives.on.her.laptop@gmail.com or aim: GeekOfNeverland

	Hi Taylor! I'm afraid I can't be TOO much help with storylines since I just got here yesterday myself, but I should say that if Peter ever runs into Calvin (my character) it's going to be... interesting. Cal is terrified of fire. Maybe someday we should make that happen. Hope to see you around! ~ Emily (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Oh that'd be fun X3 though to be honest at times Peter isn't all that found of fire himself, childhood trauma and all that. Glad to meet a fellow newbie ^_^ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cal too! Maybe if Cal ever manages to not run away from Peter they can bond over their fire-related traumas XD (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hmmm maybe if they didn't meet as Supers but as civies they'd have an easier time. Though that might be just as difficult since Peter's social skills leave something to be desired. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pastispast 2009-07-22 05:33 pm UTC (link)
	Eh, so do Cal's. And it'd unlikely that they'd meet as Supers, since know one knows (yet!) that Cal is one. Although he's being targeted by a lot of baddies right now, so he might end up on the dark side at some point in the future... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	amongtheashes 2009-07-22 05:40 pm UTC (link)
	Hmm it 'd be interesting if they became friends as civies and then ended up as enemies as Supers . . . (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pastispast 2009-07-22 05:44 pm UTC (link)
	That WOULD be interesting! Well, he works and audits classes at the university (I've just started him a thread there now, but that's so he can meet Harrison Boot). Perhaps they can run into each other there? I'm game if you want to start something :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	amongtheashes 2009-07-22 05:51 pm UTC (link)
	Sounds good to me he should be visiting colleges anyway what with being a senior. ^_^ I don't want to mess up your meeting with Harrison though so want them to meet tomorrow, or something? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pastispast 2009-07-22 05:56 pm UTC (link)
	Sounds good to me! Harrison's mun hasn't been around lately, though, and that thread it taking place late at night. I'm still not exactly sure how time and simultaneous threadding works around here or I'd say we could even start something now. I honestly don't know, though. Argh. Sorry! It's the newbie thing.

	amongtheashes 2009-07-22 06:04 pm UTC (link)
	Ah no worries I completely understand, I only recently started doing this myself and this comm is a lot less strict than the only other one I've ever been part of so I'm not entirely myself. Hmmm well I'm about to run out but I'll be back in like half an hour to an hour so if you want we could do something then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How about you start something and I'll jump in. Does that work? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Haha no worries, and I had fun too, Peter and Calvin need to meet up again sometime. ^_^ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pastispast 2009-07-23 02:40 am UTC (link)
	Definitely! Will Peter be visiting the college again any time soon? Or going there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	amongtheashes 2009-07-23 02:46 am UTC (link)
	Oh he's going to have to visit at least one other time, maybe more, but its where he's going to apply to for sure. ^_^ Unfortunately he's still got to get through senior year before he can actually go there. I'm a wee bit confused though, do these things work in real time? I mean is it like the end of July in Axis City too or what? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Honestly, I'm really not sure what month it is. Perhaps you've found some information that I haven't? I can ask some people, though. As for the timing, I've seen people (and participated in) having the same character in multiple threads that are taking place at slightly different times, but all times that are pretty close together. (Like maybe one one day and one the next day) so they can resolve within that day and not create time issues. I'm not sure how big chunks of time are handled, though. Sorry! Newbieness... If I can find out, I'll get back to you!

As for Cal, he's always hanging around the university, so Peter can pretty much always catch him there if he ever needs someone to talk to or wants some advice about college. Cal's young, but he knows a lot for his age, so he's pretty good at the whole giving advice thing.

	Ah don't worry about it, I might just email the mods my questions. I'm just a wee bit confused that's all. That's good to know, I'm sure I can think up plenty of reasons for Peter to go visit. ^_^ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hi! I'm Roz and I play Simone Weaver, the chief of police; Aiden Adams whose a reporter, Megan Stacy who is a small time villain and Madison Blake who's on no-ones side but his own. If you've got any ideas just drop me a line and I'm happy to plan. Otherwise welcome to the game! I hope you have a good time here. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Hey, Taylor! I'm TS. I play Teagan, a 20-year-old girl who (for the time being) works at a used bookstore and can definitely relate to guilt complexes. XD Her power is poison generation, so she wouldn't be much of a hero, anyway. I'm "lessergreyshades" on aim, if you ever want to chat. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Hey! I'm Joan, and this is Harrison Boot. He's Rachel's PA, a workaholic, and a villain. His dad was a hero (but he didn't know that) who has now passed away. His power is weight manipulation and I'd be happy to figure something out! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	amongtheashes 2009-07-22 08:57 pm UTC (link)
	Very cool (love your choice of PB btw), and it sounds like fun. Wow everyone is so nice here, its great. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tryboot 2009-07-22 09:01 pm UTC (link)
	I know right? It's hard to get away without a few lines right off the bat! I'm on the teaddict via aim if you ever want lines. Harrison can be more than manipulative, totally loyal to Rachel, and is gay. I forgot to add that in, lol. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	amongtheashes 2009-07-22 09:46 pm UTC (link)
	Sounds fun, Peter is the type who'd be quite easily manipulated if you play off his emotions. Hehe I love how slash inclined this RP is X3 (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	LOL, I know right? If Peter can be manipulated, Harrison will do it in a heart beat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hey there I'm Mab and I play Max who is another kid that's terrified of fire. Oddly enough because of a fire that killed his mom and grandfather when he was ten. He's in foster care now and simone is his foster mom. Maybe they go to the same high school? He'd be a sophomore tho (Reply to this) (Thread)

Nice to meet you ^_^

Seriously? Wow Peter's parents got killed when he was 10 in a fire (it was murder though someone set the fire intending to kill), talk about coincidences.

If they did go to them same school Peter would be the odd kid usually sitting alone drawing in his sketchbook. Hmm if we wanted them to meet we could always have them have lunch or gym together (not sure about other places but where I'm from those are always mixed between all four grades)

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blowininthewind 2009-07-22 10:06 pm UTC (link)
	cool. we could say they go to the same school. It's a fun coincidence we should capitalize on it! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	amongtheashes 2009-07-23 12:58 am UTC (link)
	sounds good to me ^_^ Peter 's kind of shy so if they meet there'd either need to be some kind of outside force behind it or Max would have to be the one to initiate it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Hi Taylor!! I'm Jessica and this is Sebastian Richards. He's a bit of a dichotomy because he's a rich playboy who also has an affinity and love for science and geekery. He is also telekinetic and a bit telepathic as well. He's one of the major superheroes as well as a major society kid. Welcome to the game!!! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	amongtheashes 2009-07-30 04:58 am UTC (link)
	Hi its nice to meet you ^_^ Peter is pretty new to the superhero thing, and has had no contact with the other heroes as of yet. Sebastian sounds really cool X3 (Reply to this) (Parent)
