Alright... so now that everyone's had a chance to settle in, I figure it's time to talk plot and generate some ideas on how to get things moving. (And also to offer up Katherine as needed, to give characters a reason to do things.)
This post will be a little scattered and for that, I apologize, but I'm generally a little scattered myself.
By now, most of the characters are moved into the Anhalt, although there are a few exceptions. So it should be expected that they can start acting as Team Something.
This being a plot device mainly, I wanted to say that people should feel free to start talking about ideas for how these characters could act as a supers team. This post here's a good place to do it. We've all likely read a comic or two in our time. I think those scenarios can be used as jumping off points; likewise, I don't think it would be a bad idea to develop villains that could also be used against the protagonists. (And yes, NPCs can be used for this.)
Within reason, it's fine to "borrow" Katherine or use a black envelope to have characters sent on missions. (A tweet to the game twitter might be nice for a FYI that the post needs to be read. They are all read by a mod but it's sometimes hard to keep up on threads.) Clearly, Kat's not going to send anyone out for pop tarts but it's okay to use her for your basic superhero type stuff. This could be anything from stopping a hate crime in progress to chasing down a much larger threat.
I'm keeping this short because I'll be at work in a few hours but I wanted to get the ball rolling and see what people's thoughts in general were.
