Introduction

This is a free-style superhero role-play where each of you can make a difference in the lives of those who live in RolePlay City, the greatest city in America and home to the world’s most famous heroes. A vast teeming metropolis of nearly eight million citizens spread out over several districts. The city has claimed for itself the title “birthplace of the hero,” an assertion that may or may not be true. However, no one can deny the fact that today RolePlay City is home to more super powered heroes than any other metropolis on the planet.

Why? Because not only is RolePlay City the largest city in the US, it also goes out of its way to support its hero population. In RolePlay City, heroes fight crime and villainy with the local government’s approval and to the population’s applause. Here a hero can rise to the heights of fame, fortune, and power as long as he keeps his image positive and the local authorities appeased.

The City Districts: Remaeus Park, Juarez Park, Queens Landing, Tower City, Richland and Freedom Port.
Remaeus Park is the district at the heart of RolePlay City.

No landmark exemplifies the heroic nature of heroes more than the statue of the fallen hero, Remaeus, that stands in front of City Hall.

Remaeus was one of the first heroes to respond to the Alien Hvee sneak attack against RolePlay City on December 7th, 1965. Almost single-handedly, Remaeus kept the Hvee attackers from gaining a foothold past Freedom Port.
It was rumored to have cost him his life, but he held his ground until the Gateway Heroes arrived.
The statue of Remaeus was dedicated by the mysterious Ace Darkfire himself in a ceremony christening the heart of Remaeus Park. Many young heroes were inspired enough by Remaeus' sacrifice to volunteer for the Gateway Heroes trek across the world to help reinforce the G-wing squadron in England against the Alien Hvee. To this day, Remaeus Park is the safest area in RolePlay City and many new heroes dedicate themselves to making sure it stays that way.

Throughout Remaeus Park and the rest of RolePlay City are even more statues of heroes that fell in battle while defending their beliefs.

From Remaeus Park, heroes can travel south to Tower City or north to the Richland. The hazards of Juarez Park are a short journey to the west, while closer at hand within Remaeus Park itself, are a hidden entrance to the underground labyrinths of The Undercity. Be warned; both Juarez Park and The Undercity are dangerous places for an unprepared hero.

If you think you are hero enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with the greatest heroes of the golden age, come to RolePlay City.

Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

I will be away this weekend as the wife and I are going to a reunion. I will be back on Monday and reply to any posts then.

Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

I hear you, I have been busy with work as well and while I can pop in to check the boards and do some Admin stuff I have been unable to sit down and properly post anything for my role-plays. I should be in a more lax state next week and can devote the attention needed.

Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

This is just a quick note to say that life is looking to be keeping me from finishing up my next couple posts for a few days yet. I was on the road every day this last week and will be traveling again for work through the weekend. With a bit of luck, my schedule should lighten up a bit come Monday and I'll be able to move things along with Deadeye.


Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

Feel free to post. There's a lot going on in the City. Well with all these characters I hope more stories take place than Deadeye and General Freedom...such a large city with so much potential, I'd hate to see to go to waste.

Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

Alrighty, I got Overload in there :). If she shows up, does that mean I'm clear to post, or do we get the ok directly from you?


Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

Howdy Kohananinja, yes you can use the same character, just place it in the character hopper for approval. If you are using the same character as last time, I thought she was a great character and had a lot of potential. With the new system and all the locations inked I think we can create some great role-plays.

Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

Hi Skallagrim, utterly thrilled to see this back again! Do you need us to re summit our characters here, to you by PM, or are we clear to post if said characters were accepted in the last one?


Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

Edelle, nice to have you join this role-play. So far Whysper and I have been carrying it but I am looking forward to having Monster be an active hero in the RPGCity. If you have been keeping up the same beginning with the scarab beetles.

Deadeye is dealing with the criminals trying to hit the Newsstand and the assault that occurred at the Hall of Heroes where something important was taken. Are things occurring concurrently with the nastiness at the IDE.

Skall


Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

By the way if you would like to create a villain or hero( sidekick or nemesis) please feel free to work with the template I have and shoot it to me for approval. One I ok them you can post there here for others to use.

Skall


Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City

I love that story for introduction of Deadeye. I have added a new location, the Hall of Heroes where villains are taken for processing. It is also a place for heroes to meet each other logically instead of in a random haphazard manner.

I have just about finished the General Freedom story introduction and will spin that off to other things once I finish it. Also the power is now going out city wide so that can offer new opportunities for hero/villain and hero/hero interactions.
