Justice League: The New Wave (OOC - Interest Check)

We contain multitudes!

I used to love playing the old DnD, Vampyre and other desktop roleplaying games. I think it really helped with my writing and yes every character still lives in my mind.

I still do from time to time. I used to have a RIFTS game going on until recently that I used to run over skype.

Yea I miss table top role playing. The best system for me is Exalted. In case you couldn't tell.

The Anima Banner was a big clue.

 

[kizkiz]

Somethings are just too cool to throw away

 

[kizkiz]

You keep killing those Interludes. I love 'em! That nebula man is a pretty cool idea.

Thank you! Thank you so, so much!

Morrison really turned The Nebula Man from a one-shot mindless baddie tank to a whole interconnected mythology in his own right. I knew Jamie needed a baby universe, and I'd already mentioned Qwewq in the Wonderworld stuff. It seemed like a logical choice!

Then I remembered that Legend had added a DC/Game of Thrones Earth, and in researching how that would come together I realized GoT's recurring sevens dovetailed eerily well with Nebula Man's quest to hunt teams of seven like The Seven Soldiers of Victory.

I liberally pirated and parroted dialogue to build on the mythological ties, all due credit to original creators, but I'm quite delighted by how it came together.

I only hope I'm not missing a cue while I'm working on these in my perceived downtime, it wouldn't do to neglect the present storyline whilst eagerly foreshadowing...

 

[kizkiz]

I think RL has slowed down most of our contributors. I'm thinking about posting some flashbacks that I found on my laptop the other day for Kiz. There's not much for Kiz to do at the present time, since everyone is supposed to be "scanning" the area until the Rider shows up.

I was debating having Kiz chat with the Rogues some more.

 

[ChasNicollette]

I'm always up for a little Rogueing, heh.

But you'll be gratified to know that The Rider has just drawn into eyeshot.

Always remember, everyone, when fighting other PCs, don't assume their response unless you've talked about it and agreed beforehand.

 

[Zet_Cross]

Yes. PvP is interesting but not always predicable.

 

[kizkiz]

I know! I'm so stoked!

Nice...

 

[TertiusHuman]

Just curious Chass, when will the thing happen with Garfield which you asked me about?

Final boss fight.

But only briefly.

Looking forward to it.

OK another silly question, the JL watch...ehm...excuse my ignorance, but what is it and how does it work?

It's like the LuthorCorp version of an Apple Watch, the brandname is "LexIcon." You could make phone calls on it, Skype, play games, use apps.

Right now it's cut off from cell towers, but the database Kaldur downloaded should let Gar look up pictures of animals.

 

[TertiusHuman]

Ah!

It is basically a smart watch!

OK gotcha.

Then another silly question, since burning or cutting the Ajarkar and Blackadders is out, any suggestions? I can only spider and silkworm suck SO many baddies.

Dinosaurs.

 

[kizkiz]

Now does the depiction of the "animal" need to be realistic for him to draw that archetype from the Red?

For all we know Dinosaurs had feathers!

Or they are some liberal construction to attempt to confuse the biblical timeline, so...

 

[kizkiz]

I was just thinking if Garfield the comic cat is in play, he just needs to find a really good artist and design his own terrifying but within the archetype of a given animal that exists on earth.

They have to be pure animals though right? No weird chimeric amalgams?

I'm game for a road trip to the Red to power up Beast Boy, just saying....

 

[ChasNicollette]

I'd actually say he could manifest featherless dinosaurs if that's what comes up on the watch.

Even though it's not paleontologically accurate, the potential for those evolutions may have existed somewhere in The Red, and if he sees a picture of it, he can become it!

Because Gar has been frequently (and recently!) depicted as becoming featherless dinosaurs in the past, I'm retconning this as the explanation.

If it exists in The Red's concept art ashcan and he has visual reference, he can become it whether it existed in nature or not.

That's how he became Garfield the Cat a few pages ago.

 

[ChasNicollette]

He'll be able to become bio-chimerae and potentially mythological creatures as his power and control develops.

The fallen light bringer was a dragon....
