Gotcha. Im leaning towards open for more realism.

Since none of our characters are "mutants" or aliens, why don't we exclude these kinds of origins. Are you guys good with that? What other provisos should we have for creating antagonists, targets, heroes and other npcs?

Right now we have an emphasis on the supernatural: a god's avatar, a curse victim, and a personification of a natural process. There is room for technological abilities, but between those two you can actually do a lot of concepts.

Less 4-Color and more open is fine with me.

I would like to propose the existence of proper heroes that fight 'evil' and pose a serious threat at least to the plans of immortals like the villains.

I am not good with the whole writing history cause I would literately spend weeks doing that. Lets go with same history and its only been in the last few decades that this stuff has been hitting front page. Keep it simple, and if the readers start claiming it does not make sense we reboot the whole universe!

For Agent Chaos, a Doctor Fate type would be perfect for his other side. Order vs Chaos.

I say Yay.

Yeah, mostly the same history, with undercurrents showing up in the background of history.

I would even say that history is surprisingly the same despite the presence of powers throughout history, if a little more deadly.

Sounds good. Let's do this thing.

Who should gm who? Should we each come up with a brief idea for what protagonist/challenge we would generate for each of the other pcs and see what we like?

Agent Chaos Obstacles:
I think I'd start with a military commander trying to get rid of him. Or recruit/manipulate him.
Backup would be a knight Templar type with 'holy' powers, a sword, and stupid luck looking into his history.
And of Course I suspect Chaos would always get into trouble himself.

Feeble Man Obstacles:
For Feebs I'd go with a different demon trying to stick another curse on him -- figures he got away with getting a good deal from a demon
Backup is gang that thinks feebs owes them something. This would mostly be a comedic plotline, and a chance for feebs to show how un-feeble he can be.
Feebs is also cabaple of generating plot himself.

For Agent Chaos: this alternate presidential race (it will be made different enough that we aren't talking real world politicians) - is heating up and the forces of chaos have their greatest opportunity ever to avoid the same dull same ol same ol election. The "Daughters of Entropy" plead for Agent Chaos to do something to truly make this a memorable and truly bizarre election. Meanwhile, Aquila, Minerva's Owl Themed Eyes and Talons on Earth, is determined that democracy should prevail for once, working that all voices be heard and all citizens be counted.

For Death (of Small Pox): the ferryman of the river stix has put out an ad for someone to take his shift for a couple days so hshi can get away for it all in Las Vegas. When no one takes shim up on it, the ferryman offers an interesting trade with Death (of Small Pox) with the location of an ancient Incan who somehow escaped Death (of Small Pox)'s greatest nostalgic times.
