Avengers: A New Dawn (OOC and Signups)

[noodle]

The Avengers are dead. The world is losing hope. HYDRA is thriving, running rampant with no one to stop them. But there are still those strong ones out there that can save the world from HYDRA's clutches. SHIELD, though weak and in hiding, is collecting superhumans yet again, and assembling a team to take down the organization.....once and for all.

They are not ready. Most need training. But they are strong willed. And the few remaining SHIELD agents are determined to get them running smoothly as a team, especially since they will be up against a powerful team within HYDRA, the Covert Division.

Let the rebellion begin.

Rules Plot CS template Accepted Characters Players Waiting List My Characters Special Thanks

• 
  
  1. All Iwaku rules apply.
  2. One post a week at least is required. If you don't post within a week, I will PM you a reminder. If you don't answer that PM or post within three days, I will kill your characters or turn them into NPCs.
  3. 12 players MAX. 10 is preferred.
  4. This RP has a set plot beforehand with multiple arcs. However, I will consider player-generated arc ideas. Just PM me!
  5. I, the GM, control all NPCs and canon characters.
  6. Character death will be a thing if they do something stupid or you want them to die. As GM, I reserve the right to kill off your characters without consent (but I most likely won't be doing that).
  7. This is an Intermediate level RP. Two paragraphs minimum, well-developed sentences, and proper spelling and punctuation are a must.
  8. Try not to get into a long-term back and forth with yourself and another player. This hinders the progression of the RP. I don't mind a little bit of it, just don't clog the IC up with it. They are teams, after all. They should interact with everyone, if possible.
  9. When making a CS, make sure you don't steal anyone else's powers.
  10. Don't drop out without any warning. At least tell us!
  11. When making a CS, note that you cannot start roleplaying until I make it clear that you are accepted.
  12. This should be obvious, but I'm putting this in here anyway. No Mary-Sues, Gary-Stus, godmodding, or metagaming.
  13. I reserve the right to change rules as I see fit.
  14. Please, ask questions if you're unsure of something. I'm relatively new to GMing, so if any of you have had experience, I'd appreciate tips as well. Don't be afraid to point out if I made a mistake or if I need to add in more information!
  15. Not really a rule, but I just wanted to say that for some reason the coding on this is going wacky with me. It keeps putting commands in that I didn't type. Therefore, one of my character sheets is always getting messed up. I am working on trying to fix this (but every time I edit it out and then save it, it comes back! I'm done with this stupid thing)! ....vent over. Move on.
• The SHIELD HQ is located in a secure facility in New York City. We will start out with all our SHIELD characters meeting and making friendships and possibly rivalries in that facility, as well as a few training sessions.
  
  The HYDRA HQ is the previously abandoned base located in Sokovia. Like SHIELD, it will begin with the characters of the Covert Division meeting and learning how to work together (training sessions apply here as well).
  
  Once a few training sessions have been completed and we have some friendships set in stone in both teams, I will make a GM post and initiate Arc 1.
  
  (Note: this will be edited as the RP moves on.)
  
• 
  (Note that I don't care if you add in any information that I left out. Just stick to the basic template, include the information that is asked of you, and you're good! If you want to keep anything secret from the other players, PM me with the information instead of including it in the CS.)

• Luna Adler

  • 
    
    

    
    Female||15||SHIELD||Hulk||5'7" or 12'6"
    ||Personality||
    Luna tries to stay positive and is always looking for a way to make a pun or joke. However, she is deeply insecure, very afraid of hurting people, and ashamed of what she is. Though she loves making friends, she needs reassurance that they don't hate her and is often afraid that she might hurt them.
    
    Contradicting this personality is her dragon side. It is sadistic, violent, and does not hesitate to kill. It feels no remorse and will even turn on teammates and friends if the human side cannot keep it under relative control. Like the real Hulk, it is triggered by strong emotion.
    ||Powers|Abilities|Skills||
    Luna can shift into a dragon. The dragon's skills include:
    -Flight
    -Firebreathing
    -Super Strength
    -Night Vision
    -Almost impenetrable scales
    She possesses no superhuman abilities outside of her dragon form.
    ||Weaknesses||
    -If her jaws are held shut, she cannot breathe fire.
    -Her wings are easily damaged, and if they are, she cannot fly.
    -Her chest and underbelly is where her vital organs are. If the scales are broken through, she will most likely die.
    -After shifting from dragon form, she is dizzy and very weak for a few minutes.
    -She is left naked and vulnerable after shifting from dragon form.
    -She is very sluggish in the cold in either form.
    -She must eat more than the average human to keep her strength up.
    ||History||
    Luna was raised neglected by her family in the slums of LA. Her father was an alcoholic and her mother a drug addict. Luna would often have to steal money from them to buy clothes and other necessary items for school.
    
    She grew up with no idea what she was, but she did notice some differences from her peers. For one, she was angered much too easily. For another, she ate more than most of her peers did.
    
    One day, as she was walking home from school at the tender age of 13, she was attacked by a group of men with undisclosed intentions. That was the first time she shifted, her dragon form reacting to her fear to protect her. After killing the men and a few innocent bystanders, it flew away from California and hid in New York before giving Luna control again.
    
    She woke up with no idea where she was, only a vague idea of what had happened, and not understanding why she had no clothes on.
    
    Two years later, years full of coming to terms with what she was and a daily struggle to survive, and she was approached by SHIELD. At first, she was hostile and afraid of what may happen, but the organization was firm in their proceedings and tried to convince her in the most gentle way possible to come quietly.
    
    Eventually, she agreed, and is both nervous and excited about being part of a team. She hopes it will turn out to be like the family she never had.
    ||Other||
    -Luna really loves pancakes.
    -She dresses comfortably (sweats and tees, mostly) and tends to sleep a lot.
    ||Theme||
    
• Thanks to @Soulserenity20 for putting together the character banners for me. ^.^ You're amazing!
  Thanks to @firejay1 for for putting together the advertisement. Again, you're awesome.
  And a very big thank-you to @Ali for putting together the roleplay header!!

So, just a heads up, I'm kinda pushing the limits of believability with this one because I wanted to do something different. So...apologies for the spoiler, but, I want to make sure sure it's not TOO far beyond what is allowed here.

She's a zombie...

[Unyielding]

That would be great! I have a robot after all :'D

HANG ON....I'll post soon! OTL

Yay finally someone is going to bring in Pori instead of just walking pass her like it's normal to have a container of green goo right infront of shields door step

 

[Justin]

Your post said nothing about where she was. I would've had Isabella pick her up if I knew that. That's a detail you missed.

 

[Banana-senpai]

I have a feeling they'll get along. :'D

Edit:
Okay, I'm done. I did my best to wrap things up.
Please tell me if I wrote something wrong. Like when Cleave said six were coming instead of five. I counted him along! I had to edit that.

If you read Cleave's part from start to finish, there's a good chance you'll be close to memorizing his introduction and the names of the new Avengers.

 

[Unyielding]

When I made the post, I didn't know everyone was inside the warehouses

 

[The Dapper Mog]

Yaaaaay

(applause)

 

[Unyielding]

Yay I am with everyone. Now I have to find a way out if the jar. Also, to everyone else. Pori has not taken a form yet and is just swishing around in the jar. Jars are her weakens you know

 

[Banana-senpai]

I think it'll be fine. Post it and I'll tell you if I need you to change anything.

 

[The Dapper Mog]

Hey, so, is she okay?

Name:

Aoko Harumi

Gender:

Female

Age:

198

Height:

5'1"

SHIELD or HYDRA:

SHIELD

Position/job:

Engineer

Basic Personality:

Aoko is an old fashioned soul, no doubt due to her age and upbringing. She believes firmly in the concept of personal honor and respect, as well as being forthright and polite. Not surprisingly, thanks to her era of origin, she has a fascination with technology, as well as artifacts and antiquities.

Powers/abilities/skills:

Aoko is, in a traditional sense, a zombie. The origin of this is unclear, but she discovered very early on what her condition is. Through trial and error, she has best learned how to manage her condition.

Near Immortality - Due to being essentially dead, Aoko is very difficult to kill. She is vulnerable to fire, severe head trauma, and decapitation.

Rage - When particularly endangered or enraged, Aoko can enter a state where her condition intensifies. Her eyes become red, and she begins to act in a feral manner. She can snap out of it with someone's help or a reminder of her humanity. The more danger she's in, the less likely she is able to snap out of it herself. While in this state, she is significantly stronger and faster than the average human, but has a hard time distinguishing friend from foe, and person from food.

Skills:

Firearms Training
Engineering
Highly Accurate
Tech Savvy
Great Driver
Licensed Doctor
Impressive Fighting Abilities

Weaponry:

Energy Based Pulse Rifle

Energy Based Sidearm

Net Grenades

Trip Wire Bolts

Katana

Armor

Weaknesses:

Needs to devour human flesh for sustenance, as well as to retain her humanity. If she goes longer than a month without eating, she begins to decay, and becomes fully feral, attempting to devour the first person she comes across.

Aoko frequently has to color her hair, and her skin is very pale. Only considered a weakness because of her condition in regards to blending in.

When not raging, physical abilities are limited by traditional human standards.

Has a particular vulnerability to fire.

Aside from the general risk of going feral, severe physical trauma or emotional spikes can cause a rage.

History:

Aoko was a regular woman, and a member of the Japanese middle class during the early 1800's, a time ripe with change and rising wealth. While she wasn't fond of all of the western influences, she did take naturally to the intake of newer technologies. Her life was going well, due to be wed to a young entrepreneur before an untimely event destroyed her life. Unable to remember the cause or the event itself in any detail, she found herself alone and lost, miles from her home. It didn't take long for her new craving and a little research to tell her what she now was, and how she had to deal with it. Aoko was only one of many to simply vanish that year, and while the short string of "rabies outbreaks" were well handled, the event became lost to history. Mostly.

After several years and a few incidents of her own, she left her home country, bound for the United States where she made her new home, working for many years as a doctor and then a medical examiner, where she was able to keep up with her dietary demands. Of course, her passion for technology never died, and she continued to build, scrap, and work with whatever she could. For many years she lived a comfortable life, until a shadowy government organization discovered her secret. While they worked hard to cover up the truth of her, they "convinced" her to help them. Eventually, she found herself missing her old lives, now in the service of an agency known as "SHIELD."

Will add later.

Yeah, looks good!

Also, I'm planning on getting an IC post out today or tomorrow, and hopefully editing the OOC for once DX

 

[The Dapper Mog]

Would you like for me to post here soon? Or should I wait to bring my characters in?

Would you like for me to post here soon? Or should I wait to bring my characters in?

Just introduce them now.

 

[Unyielding]

Darn Neo... i was almost done with my post lol

 

[Justin]

Getting posts up later tonight.

 

[noodle]

AUGH Pori is too cute and innocent and nice and urrrrgggghhhhh

 

[The Dapper Mog]

Okay, so. HYDRA post is up. I decided to include some extra background stuff in the form if a short scene. If it's okay, I'll probably be doing this regularly. It'll give extra detail about the character while also giving you fine folks some extra reading material if you're interested in it. I included the term optional in the spoiler tag because it isn't relevant to the actual post.

Hope you enjoy. I'll try and get the shield character post up soon.

 

[Justin]

Alright... life got fucked up, so I will try to post tomorrow.

 

[Brea]

I'll be working to get my first post up very soon. Sorry about the hold up on my part.
