Intro




"The Golden Age, That's what the new generation of superheroes deem it. We just called it the 40's, The first boom of Superheroes(and Villains) appeared around that time. The boom was World wide but mostly in America, The cultural melting pot. The spike in superpowered individuals was sometime at the beginning of the world war 2. I remember hearing about the terrifying things that came to light once the fighting was over. The Nazi War Machines, Super Soldiers, Death Camps and other atrocities committed by the Axis forces. America its self isn't excluded from these atrocities sadly, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, A means to a end. It was a different time back then, No cellphones, internet or video games the kids seem to love so much. It was a simple time even with men that could fly and rip metal apart like card board with there bare hands. Now I won't lie to you, At that point in time in America had it's social problems, Racism, Sexism, Homophobia and more. Society wasn't so accepted back then, People were excepted to stay in there place. This was the Golden Age, The push that was needed to make a change."

City

Geld City is where this story will start from. This city is the most technologically advance city in America. Do not be surprised of seeing out of placed like AC, Colored TV and other such minor things like robots. Geld is a very affluent city shown throughout the city, With that said Geld of course has it's slums. The Slums can range to Poor, broke down and completely horrendous as if these people never left the depression. This city has many farms and small town on route to it. This city is located east coast of America and has it's own bay with boat from all around the world docked in it. Geld is located in NC, North Carolina.

-whispers- it's worth it
 
BTW, anyone who wants to have their character engage Emilie's services as a costume designer/maker in-game is welcome to do so. She places a modest classified ad in the paper (or papers, if there are, say, two main papers in Geld), and may also put up a few handbills if there are any known superhero hangouts. She would only advertise in the Superhero Cafe, not the Villain Pub, since she only wants to work for heroes. ;)
Is it free or do we at least get a discount? (Okay let me get this damn IC up.)

THIS REFERENCE. THIS REFERENCE JUST HAPPENED. :D
Veronica would be first in line. She'd have a lot of business for Emilie, if that's fine. She needs to clothe her disguises and wears Emilie's creations when she performs too.
 
I stopped getting notifs for this...again. >.>;;; And did that conversation just happened???

Adalberto: Ladies and Gentlemen, please. I can control my abilities. No need to run away.

@Razilin, as far as I know, you got it right, at least judging by the Bogart movies I can recall. :) The fedoras, pinstripes, "Jimmy the Nose" type names and such were (again, to my knowledge) staples of the Noir detective genre in film and books set (and written or filmed) through the '30's and '40's. As long as your gangsters are dealing in something other than booze (opium, heroin, prostitution, etc.) you're fine (Prohibition was repealed in 1933).

@Zarko Straadi

want to have Black Flag and Setting Sun meet up at the strike-breaking? an impromptu team up?

reading through her CS, Black Flag seems to be the vocal protestor out in the public eye; a good foil to Setting Sun being more Batmany and in the shadows
 
I should have my characters past done soon. Once I'm done I'll let you know! ^^
 
I'm so touched you did! I was pondering all day with how to enter. I'm thankful Emilie knows about Vixen too. I'll post soon!
I'm glad that works for you! :D

@Razilin
@Ashen Angel
(and anyone else who wants to join the action at the strike):

Brutus' powers are: "stoneskin" armor (provides potent protection against physical attack, but can be penetrated with sufficient damage), super-strength, and the ability to mold his hands and feet into melee weapons (hammer, axe, spike, etc.). If he is killed or knocked out, he returns to the form of an ordinary large, muscular man. Also, feel free to have more super-powered hired muscle show up if you want to make things more challenging for our characters if/when Setting Sun and/or Leone intervene.
 
lI'll be posting soon!
 
I believe I might set a post for Holly, having her deal with a simple vehicle emergency between a highway full of cars and a mole-like creature that decided his new afternoon treats are asphalt and rubber tires.

If approved, then this can allow another group to enter the RP, meet the other members, and possibly run into everyone else... IDK... It depends. I'm just brainstorming ideas. Thoughts?
