GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL


Welcome to [community profile] maskormenace's fifteenth
CR MEME!!


How does this work? It's easy!
    Make a thread for yourself or a comment with your character's name on it. Reply to that post with your filled out forms for organization's sake.
    Comment to other people! See if their answers fit anything you're looking for and if yours fit anything they are. Don't be intimidated, carpe diem, we like to party.
    Keep checking back! We strongly encourage you to track top-levels even, if possible. We want to make sure everyone gets their fair shot.
    Play nice and have fun!
    ( THE BASICS )
    Name: Your character!
    Canon: Self-explanatory!!
    Character's (approximate) age: Or how old they appear.
    Character's powers: List and describe them!
    Is your character registered/will they be?: Why or why not! Maybe unsettled heroes will want to make connections with each other. Maybe registered heroes will want to team up. So on!
    Where does your character live?: What housing residence are they in? Meet your roommates if you haven't already, make plans!
    Are you looking for roommates?: If your character is currently housing alone, or planning to move out of their assigned housing. Is your character considering moving to one of our other cities? See who else might be doing the same!
    What is your character's job?: And are they sticking with it? Enjoying it? Coordinate with potential coworkers, employers, or patrons -- why not!

    ( THE DETAILS )
    RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: What are they good at, what do they hate, what do they need (and so on) so that others know what they can offer you.
    What are your character's plans?: Either what they're doing as we speak or what you'd like to do with them!
    Does your character have a secret identity?: Since this can get confusing at times. Is your character a superhero with a public identity or do just a few people know who they are? List them, even!
    Is your character open for pairings?: Useful to know! Possibly.
    Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: If yes, how much and in what circumstances?
    Is your character interested in teams?: Registered hero teams are very well-received around these parts, as you might guess. If yes, coordinate with possible teammates and see if you can put something together!
    What kind of plots are you after?: Let the brainstorming commence. This can be as vague, specific, or "big picture" as you'd like.
    Anything else?: If you have anything else to add!

    The copypasta box:

Lex

[personal profile] carrieskryptonite 2016-08-20 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
( THE BASICS )
Name: Lex Luthor
Canon: DCAU
Character's (approximate) age: Mid-thirties. Let's say 35 or so.
Character's powers: Technopathy, mineral synthesis
Is your character registered/will they be?: He'll be registering.
Where does your character live?: Lex is currently in Maurtia Falls no. 8 with Frank. Sorry, Frank.
Are you looking for roommates?: Lex isn't.
What is your character's job?: beerista at Kevin's Beer Hall Lex is working on getting a branch of LexCorp set up here. And buying out Kevin's Beer Hall to shut it down.

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Lex is an organizer, a leader, a planner. He's very used to being the most powerful person in a room because of the work he put into getting in that position in the first place. He's very skilled with electronics and engineering, and understands the sciences in general. He likes being important, not so much getting ignored or dismissed.
What are your character's plans?: Lex is going to be working on getting a LexCorp branch set up, and getting involved with the US government here in a way that sets himself up for future influence. Given his involvement with the version of it in the later version of the DCAU, I'm considering getting him involved with the setup of a MoM!verse Task Force X sort of team.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Why would Lex Luthor need a secret identity?
Is your character open for pairings?: Yes.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: I'm open to Lex getting hurt, but while he can be an absolute asshole, he generally doesn't go out of his way to hurt others. Physically. He usually has people for that.
Is your character interested in teams?: Lex is only interested in teams that he can have influence on or take charge of.
What kind of plots are you after?: Definitely political/corporate type stuff here! Lex is the sort that likes to get involved in that kind of thing. I also wouldn't be surprised if he tries to get involved in other things that might show up. Also, while I'm expecting him to largely get neutral/negative CR, positive CR will be a pleasant surprise! However, he does have a self-centered personality so I'm not expecting that to be something to be able to plan for.

Also, depending on how long I maintain him here, I'm hoping to eventually do a Brainiac-focused plot in the future. So. That will eventually be a thing.
Anything else?: Superman sucks, so have this totally heterosexual icon. >:) (Hi Al!)
arkproject: (is that so)

Sooo I am not familiar with this version of Lex Luthor at all and I have not the first clue how they'd get along, but I see he has technopathy, so want to fling him at a computer-inhabiting sort-of-A.I. person sometime?

They might have potential if only because Catherine is very smart and very no nonsense and has some interesting moral gray areas. She's probably a good resource as an amiable, not easily rattled scientist specializing in A.I. and computer engineering in general.
carrieskryptonite: (just some smugness.)

[personal profile] carrieskryptonite 2016-08-20 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
Lex is all about those moral gray areas and persons of intelligence, so yes, I'd definitely be up for it! If they don't have crazy negative CR, he may well try and head hunt her for LexCorp, especially if the computer engineering and AI thing comes up. Not easily rattled will definitely be in her favor, too!

[personal profile] arkproject 2016-08-20 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
She's from a truly awful horror game and is intensely goal-focused. She's got this. (She spends the whole game telling the player character to man up and focus, lol.)

I'm not sure how much she'd be down for full time employment but contracting out work she would easily agree to! It tends to come up with her more or less immediately since she spends most of her time, um, as a computer and she's a total workaholic. Do you have a post anywhere I could hit up? Or I did an intro log I'm still tagging and a network post, or we could just keep an eye out for something in the future.
restingstitchface: (Exaltation)

[personal profile] restingstitchface 2016-08-20 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
Crane is intelligent, a trait Lex is all about.

But he's from Gotham.

He's intensely goal focused towards science, admist... other pursuits.

But he's from Gotham.

TL;DR I'm up for having him getting involved with schemes or discussion, or both, including that task force. Why pay for a psychiatrist when you can get one for free right?

[personal profile] asoothingvoice 2016-08-21 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
I'm definitely up for further Lex vs Crane talks, if only to give reason for eventually getting him shoved onto that task force with some prejudice if it ends up happening! Metropolis is better.

(We also need more Bianca vs Crane fights. Maybe a run-in at the Pines birthday party?)

[personal profile] restingstitchface 2016-08-26 07:56 am (UTC)(link)
Birthday party is good! Though I can just have Crane toss something at her inbox, since he's always up for dominating the competition, honestly.
asoothingvoice: (Default)

[personal profile] asoothingvoice 2016-08-27 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
that also works! I'm still laughing at him getting into with a mom. Crane, your life choices...
asoothingvoice: ([Happy] Cheerful)

Bianca

[personal profile] asoothingvoice 2016-08-20 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
( THE BASICS )
Name: Bianca!
Canon: DC Comics
Character's (approximate) age: late 30s.
Character's powers: Chancla summoning.
Is your character registered/will they be?: Registered!
Where does your character live?: Heropa 16.
Are you looking for roommates?: Any and all are welcome.
What is your character's job?: At-Risk Youth Counselor!

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Bianca is a nurse! She's got emgerency room skills, and is good at advanced first aid. She doesn't like jerks, people who try and pick fights with kids, and people failing at life, but is fairly easy-going when her temper isn't pinged on.
What are your character's plans?: Because of the whole Philadelphia thing, Bianca's probably going to be encouraging other characters to sign up for first aid courses and more advanced medical training, plus doing the whole youth counseling thing. And accidentally adopting children, teenagers, and man-children.
Does your character have a secret identity?: She's the mom of a superhero. It's a secret.
Is your character open for pairings?: Her husband is here.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: I am open to Bianca getting hurt, as much as it might freak out Jaime and Berto in game.
Is your character interested in teams?: Not really!
What kind of plots are you after?: To be honest, Bianca is my 'come and get it' character as far as CR goes! I don't really have any specific plans with her, since she manages to do her own thing in games pretty autonomously. If characters need or will eventually need someone to talk to or get mommed at, Bianca is definitely here.
Anything else?: Scroll back up to Fey's post and look at how cute that baby Beetle is.

soooooo Mint needs someone to teach her how to cook or to teach her how to budget b/c she totally blew all her money on a canopy bed.

please help this useless child out, Mama Reyes.
asoothingvoice: ([Worried] There's a problem)

[personal profile] asoothingvoice 2016-08-20 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
Oh my god, who lives with her? Did no one stage an intervention?

But yes, she totally would and will.

[personal profile] primadovea 2016-08-20 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
JUST ONE OTHER PERSON and she had a canopy bed enabler in the form of Komasan.

[personal profile] primadovea 2016-08-21 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Komasan yes.

*whispers* adopt him
asoothingvoice: (Default)

[personal profile] asoothingvoice 2016-08-21 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Tim will probably end up adopted regardless if he ends up showing his face at all but boyo, there are more sensible choices that are at least more up and up on the secret identity thing! /waves hand at Max.
guruofspeed: ([Mercury] 00)

Max

[personal profile] guruofspeed 2016-08-20 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
( THE BASICS )
Name: Max
Canon: DCU
Character's (approximate) age: ??? Anywhere from his 50s to mid 60s? Forward time travel makes this difficult...
Character's powers: Superspeed, and speed transference, along with the power to tell if anyone named Bartholomew Henry Allen is about to do something dumb.
Is your character registered/will they be?: Max is registed.
Where does your character live?: Maurtia Falls 2.
Are you looking for roommates?: Not at this time.
What is your character's job?: Tour Guide for Speedin' Segway Tours.

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Max is a multilingual history buff who's been skipping through time since roughly the early 1840s. He practices meditation, and is a pretty good mentor when it comes to the superhero training thing, especially where speedsters are involved. He's been at it for awhile. He's not so much a fan of people not thinking things ahead or getting too full of themselves.
What are your character's plans?: Max is a bit wary of the government here- he remembers what it was like prior to the end of the Cold War, and was active as a superhero during parts of the height of height of anti-communist rhetoric and ultra-patriotism. It's still not going to prevent him from helping out if people really need it, but he definitely does want to look further into the history behind everything going on here.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Yes! Though, with Bart being out in the open here it is a bit of a non-issue, what with Bart Allen having an Uncle Max and then Kid Flash working with a Max Mercury. He tried.
Is your character open for pairings?: He's a bit too old for those and a bit hung up on a long-gone old flame. If you really want to weird his nephew out, go for it! I'm not against it.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: I am open to having Max get injured. Again. More. Apparently I'm not a very good person. As far as injuring others, Max tends to not go for that sort of thing, though he will if there's no alternatives.
Is your character interested in teams?: Max won't be going out of his way to work on teams, but will if the opportunity arises and it makes sense.
What kind of plots are you after?: I'm up for a lot of things, really. With Max, the more in-depth stuff is definitely fun, because he's a more contemplative sort.
Anything else?: Max needs adult friends.

[personal profile] alreadywon 2016-08-20 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
does he want to check on Robin after that convo with Bart? :|a
asoothingvoice: (Default)

[personal profile] asoothingvoice 2016-08-21 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
That would be a good idea!

Max probably gave them space, between arriving injured and giving them the chance to not burn everything down to the ground immediately, but he'd definitely want to check on them.

I've got a catch-all for Max up for this month, if you're up for it there?
