[kafkonia@home]

I've decided against joining in, as I have other things I need to focus on.

[Michael Thayne]

Awesome!

I have everyone's character sheets.

I'll start the IC thread in a couple days, once I have time to look over the character sheets, make sure I know people's capabilities, and put the finishing touches on the opening scenario.

[Skullcrusher]

Michael keep in mind I left a few points unspent just in case there are some changes that ned to be made. After you had time to review and give me feedback I will will give you the final version.

Sounds good -- I will put together my quirks and perks and any equipment and I will be ready to go.

Hello all, I'm through my busy days, and am now going over character sheets. I should be done, and have the IC thread posted, in a few hours. One thing to do if you haven't already is make clear whether your character is publicly well-known, and what the public knows about him or her. I.e. sheldrine, you've given me the impression that most of what's in your backstory is now public knowledge, is that correct?

[Hannes665]

The Brute is a public figure, so to speak. I did not buy secret ID or reputation on him.

Also his appearance is very hard to conceal.

I´m ready to play Thursday onward.

[Galedeep]

Hey, sorry for the wait. I've had some...difficulties with work this week. I'm finishing up a new character now, and will have it posted in just a bit.

That is, assuming you still have room for a fifth?

EDIT:

Eric 'Bolt' Franklin

Appearance: Good looking, though nothing special. A fit, healthy 27 year old man, with an impressive physique. Typically wearing tight black clothing, sometimes with a yellow lightning bolt pin on his chest.

Eric, or Bolt as he prefers to be called, is a speedster. That is to say, he is very, very fast; by some metahuman standards, his powers are fairly weak, but he uses them to his best advantage.

Training his coordination and balance, he's become a very gifted acrobatic, and a talented fighter; with his abilities, he's a terror, though he knows to hightail it if a metahuman opponent shows up, his guns and knives often being unable to penetrate their thicker skin.

Toni is the long range sniper and gadget fiend; Flint is the muscle; Jamal is the scary nightmare flyer; Myrmidon is...well, Myrmidon.

Bolt is the speed, the forerunner. He can take care of large groups of relatively unskilled or weak abilities faster than the rest, or use his agility to distract and harry more difficult opponents. Mostly, he offers versatility to the group; he can get places quick, and change locations fast, shifting his style, location, and targets as the group needs.

He isn't particularly well known, though he has likely ended up in the papers or a news report to two. Occasionally, people might recognize him, and he is somewhat well thought of, as he goes out of his way to keep the uninvolved...well, uninvolved. He does have a mean streak, though, and has been caught twice injuring someone much more badly than he needed to do to complete the job.

Yep, everybody knows just about everything about him, or could find it out in about five minutes on the Internet.

[Michael Thayne]

@Galedeep: We actually had 5 players already, since Skullcrusher submitted a character by PM, but since you expressed interest before I officially closed recruitment, you're in.

@Everyone: All character sheets have been approved. (A few of you still have quirks to figure out and/or a handful of remaining points to spend, but basically everyone has their stuff worked out to my satisfaction). I'll wait until Thursday before starting any action for Hannes' sake, but the IC thread is active, and you're welcome to discuss mission planning in character starting how.
