The roll call is over. Thank you to everyone who responded. A list of removed characters is under the cut.
Removed Characters )

Parents who have been freed up completely due to characters being removed are under the cut.

Parents who are now open. )

I will be putting up another mod post for plot related stuff in the next day or two, so be on the lookout for that. Thank you for making the game great.

Okay, people.

First off, I would like to apologize for dropping the ball, plot-wise. I recently got a new job, so I've been adjusting with that. Also, I've noticed that things have slowed down, and I'd like to get them running again. I understand, people have been busy. Life happens, but I would love to get the game running smoothly again. It's still young, so I know we can get things up and running.

Instead of an activity check this month, as there really hasn't been much from anyone, I am going to be doing a roll call. However, this does have an activity element to it. For each character you respond with, you must have one piece of activity. Doesn't matter what it is, it can be something as simple a
s one comment on a network post. Just something to show that you've at least tried to make an effort to introduce your character. As the game has been open for over a month at this point, there's no excuse for characters at least not being introduced.

Players will have until Monday, March 28th, to respond to the roll call. Any players who fail to respond, or who do not have at least one piece of activity for their characters, will be removed, and need to wait two weeks before reapplying. Also, please do not tell anyone about the roll call, as this is also to see who is paying attention, so players have to do this on their own.

As this is a roll call, and not an activity check, hiatuses will not count. As no one is currently on hiatus, this shouldn't be a problem.

Please use the following form to respond:



If you wish to drop characters, please do so here.

Hi guys!

So, I've been hit with a wave of the busy, having recently started a new job...and my friends dragging me out all the time, but I'm going to try and Catch Up On Stuff. I let Feb be a free pass month for activity, but there will be one this month, so you all have a heads up. Also, going to try and get some plot stuff rolling.

Plot ideas

These are just some general ideas and I don't have ideas for every group yet. None of this stuff is in the works so feel free to make suggestions, extrapolations, or modifications of your own. None of these are set in stone as this thread is meant to get ideas out there.

Future Foundation: Still stinging from the failure of his last invasion years ago, Annihilus begins an experimental program to create super-powered insectoids to enhance his arm. He sens the first batch as a test against the Future Foundation.

X-Men: A rash of mutant disappearances causes the X-Men to investigate. This leads to discovering a resurgence of the organ-harvesting organization, the U-Men., which has become a fanatical pseudo-cult dedicated to the ascendance of the "Third Race".

Wild Pack: A mutant Somalian warlord that Daniel once thought dead is still alive and carving a path of destructive conquest in his country that could potentially destabilize the balance of power. The Pack is hired to take him out for good.

Outsiders: The team is contacted by members of the Mexican governments to save the son of a prominent government official being held hostage by a powerful new drug cartel. The team discovers that the cartel, which is growing in power and influence daily is in fact run by powerful metahumans, including a man who claims to be an avatar of Death.

Shadowpact: The team is sent to track down a group of demonic fugitives from Limbo that would not bow to Dante's rule. The group's goal is to release a powerful demon who once nearly usurped the rule of Satan (Marduk Kurios) centuries ago, who was too powerful for Satan to destroy outright so instead imprisoned on Earth.

Heroes for Hire: A variant of the Venom drug is being distributed on the streets. The users become murderous berserkers. Too much use leads to a failure of their internal organs to cope with the enhanced effects. In the course of defeating this epidemic, the Heroes discover rumors of a new Power Broker and the diary of Dr. Karl Malus.

Shield: The organization investigates what at first seems like a civil war within Hydra, only to discover that it's a mass infiltration of the terrorist group by the powerful cult, Kobra.

Meme!

In case anyone wants to do any threads, but is lacking motivation, here is a meme to maybe get the creative juices flowing. This is an oldie but good that I've done several times. I know some of the scenarios might not work in game setting, but feel free to maybe do those that might not work as part of the game canon proper as a "what if" type scenario, if you feel like that would work.

Meme )

I'm going to try and be posting memes at least a couple of times a month to get people's idea banks goings, and hopefully, I'll have a plot for the game soon. Of course, people are more than able to run plots themselves, but please bear in mind, that if you want to do a plot for a certain team, to not only run it by me, but the players who have characters on that team, to make sure that people are interested. I only ask that if people do run plots, to try and manage them well, time wise, as to be respectful to other players and not have characters tied up in plots for forever.

Also, if players have memes that they want to do, they are more than welcome to do so.

Hey guys, Paul here. I find myself in one of those annoying situations where I want to rp, but don't have any immediate ideas. So if anybody else is looking for something to do and gets inspired, let me know. My AIM and email is drdoom83@hotmail.com, so it's easy to remember! :)

Here's a list of my characters: Mary Hellstrom (Shadowpact), Daniel Thurman (Wild Pack), Sasha Hammer (Thunderbolts), Teresa Storm (Future Foundation), Colin Rand (Heroes 4 Hire), Wally Runk (Teen Titans), Jasmine Bradley (Young Avengers), Mari'syee Neramani (X-Men), Carl Cage (Shield), Alex Buchanan (Avengers), Hrolf Volstaggson (Justice League), and Diana Curry (Outsiders).

[info]prettybirdy

Hello everyone! This is Michelle and I've been meaning to do this for a while. I have a few more holds in but I think it would be a good time to introduce the three I have currently and ready for playing.

This is Isabelle Morse-Hunter. She is the daughter of Lance Hunter and Bobbi Morse. She works for SHIELD under the codename Mockingbird and does mercenary work on the side. She's the ex wife of [info]inferus. Basically, she's a fairly good mix of Bobbi and Lance condensed into a tiny angry woman. She needs friends, former boyfriends, ill conceived hookups, people who don't like her.

[info]ironscion; Howie Stark. Son of Tony Stark and Pepper Potts and half brother of [info]starkcat. He is an Avenger under his dad's old mantle. He works for Stark Industries and tends to disappear into his work for days at a time. He's a bit of a flirt and a manwhore. Think Tony before he became Iron Man in that respect. He needs exes, friends, enemies. He is perpetually smitten with Eve Richards much to his constant chagrin.

[info]crumbledearth is Adrian Johnson. He is the very serious son of Daisy Johnson and Dominick Petraikis (Avalanche). He hates his father and tries very hard to make sure that people think of him as Daisy's son and not his. He is madly in love with Miranda Todd. He's a loyal SHIELD agent (LOL Brett Dalton as a loyal SHIELD AGENT. COME ON IT's FUNNY) He needs friends, I'd love for him to be friends with some of the Thunderbolts. Villainous parent and all.

They're open to any suggestions. You can reach me on their journals or instoriestold on AIM.

Hi all, I'm Dena, and I'm excited to play with everybody. I was trying to finish up my last character before I intro'd, but succcess achieved, so here's my lot! I've got a horde here, like most of us, so I'll just run through them quick. I've also got a reference post I did here. (Blurbs not yet finished on all of them, but SOON!) I'm open to most kinds of plot with basically all of them, so feel free to hit me up! You can catch me on AIM at sonsofregret if I'm on, and if not you can always email me at voicessayhello (at) gmail [dot] com, or hit up any of my characters' dropboxes, whatever works best for you. If anyone is still character shopping and wants to work out siblings or family or whatnot, I'm open on most of them!

On to the masses )

And now I'll go hit everyone else's intros!

Hi there! I'm Courtney. I would say I was new to [info]capesmods but we're all kind of in the boat with this being a new game. Haha. I'm very excited about this game as you could probably tell with the list of character I have. I'm always up for plotting with any of my characters. If you want to reach me you can email me at cholmes989@gmail.com or AIM at peaceoverrated. Usually on AIM I'm invisible so try me whenever. You don't know you might get lucky. Then there's always the drop box in my cdj [info]sheerblack. I'm not the best at introductions so I'm going to do the best that I can. It's going to be short and sweet with a link to their profiles for more information.

welcome to the Capes and Cowls )
