Introduction
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.

Claire blinked hazily as her vision returned to her more clearly, and at the General's question as to her ability to stand she nodded faintly. True to her word, after a few wobbly moments and with a firm lean on the wall, the girl was on her feet, though looking distinctly worse for wear than the plucky and determined hero who had walked through the door. "In a warehouse... they were in a warehouse. Runihira, I think - and there was a big man, who must have been sphinx. One of the warehouses, I don't know which one. There were... frightened people, the homeless maybe, or passers-by. They might have seen something."
The girl shook her head, still off balance from her prophetic episode. "Jeez... I hate doing that. It's useful, but inconvenient as hell... it's happened in the middle of a street before, almost got run down by a jeep. Just hope it never ends up happening in a fight..." she murmured, before glancing about to try and catch up with what the others had uncovered while she was recovering. "Another thing - he probably knows I saw him. His magic was powerful... scarily so. I won't have gone unseen."

Turning back towards Claire he frowned, “You said something about homeless people? In Runihura’s lair? Can you remember? If there are innocents there we have to do everything we can to safe guard them.” Expelling a snort he looked up as the door flung open and several police officers entered, “General Freedom, Titian is on a rampage. Someone cranked his engine and he is heading this way.”
Snarling the blue clad hero glanced at the others, “Ladies can you locate those homeless people and get to them? I am going to deal with Titan. Once I am done I’ll head towards Freedom Port and meet you there.” Pausing he stared at each of them again, “These are dangerous people if you don’t want to go I will understand.” With that he darted out the door, a swirl of intense blue energy surrounded his form as he reached the streets, leaping into the air with a roar of energy.
It wasn’t difficult to see the massive being called Titan, he was carrying the remains of two cars and marching down the street methodically. Spotting the blue form the silver clad villain hurled one then the other debris at the flying figure. Both were encompassed by blue energy and vaporized. Rushing forward, a sonic boom following behind him, General Freedom hurled towards Titan who howled in delight as he ripped up the street and pulling a large sewer pipe up and raised it over his head. Around them the police had cordoned off the area, keeping people back, trying to keep the media from the danger zone.
As a sonic boom rumbled and shook the area, General Freedom raced towards the tall silvery figure. However Titan didn’t hesitate he swung the massive sewer pipe like a baseball bat, catching General Freedom, knocking him upward and away from him, the deep voice of Titan roared “He goes yard….”
The impact caused the blue-clad hero to sail nearly a mile skyward, the blow stunned him a moment. Titan had used his full strength and General Freedom felt it. Regaining his stability, he paused as he rubbed his shoulder. Brute force could lead to massive wreckage of the city, no he would have to figure out a different tactic and he would have to do it fast if he wanted to meet the others at the port. Flipping over, General Freedom raced back towards Titan, the blue energy blazing intently as he rends the air around him.

“General Freedom, Titian is on a rampage. Someone cranked his engine and he is heading this way.”
Morgan jumped backwards as the Police jumped in, swearing in several different languages under her breath.
“Ladies can you locate those homeless people and get to them? I am going to deal with Titan. Once I am done I’ll head towards Freedom Port and meet you there. These are dangerous people if you don’t want to go I will understand.”
The General was gone before Morgan could come up with an answer. She frowned in thought for a moment, looking up at the two heroes in the room with her. "Titan goes on rampage a short while after we find out about this guy, Runihira. Sounds a little too... co-incidental, doesn't it?"
Morgan pushed back a few strands of hair, turning back around to the computer screen. "I'm not going to be much use in the docks, but I can't really do much here either. Titan relies a lot on throwing heavy metallic objects, it's something I can use to my advantage. I'll go to back-up the General."

“Consider you mutant kitty distracted, just don’t take your sweet time with the jug head, ‘cause I’d rather avoid playing toy mouse for too long if it’s all the same to you.” Overload commented before he took off. Cyclone’s comment brought on thought that bore much deeper consideration, but as they were on a bit of a time crunch, arguing wasn’t exactly sometime they could afford.
“Alright, give GF backup with that big bolder if he needs it.” Overload said with a quick nod, before writing a number down on a piece of paper. “This is my cell number. Try to keep a communication line open once you finish off Titan. Even if I can’t answer it for some reason, you’ll be able to track the signal if we can’t keep cat man contained in that same area.” Overload explained before turning to Claire. “I’ll meet you there.” She promised quickly, before rushing out the door and building and heading for her bike.

Casting a quick glance around he walked rapidly towards the other side where he spotted a streaking blue light in the night sky. A grin broke out on his lips, glancing down at his watch he nodded, “Titian is right on time.” purred the large man as he crouched low and scanned the streets below. His prey would be traversing this road shortly and that is when the villain called Sphinx would pounce.
Meanwhile back at the warehouse, Runihura grasp the Ankh, his eyes blazing, “Soon this city will be the seat of my new dynasty and from here I shall rule the world once again.” Standing the thin man strode swiftly towards a large pool of water, inside the pool something large splashed about. The scarab beetles followed the pharaoh, their chittering filling the air. Standing above the sunken pool of water, Runihura peered into the gloom; his eyes flickered then cast an illuminating light into the brackish water. A large form surfaced then disappeared again before a large reptilian head broke through the black water, gold flecked eyes peering up at the man.
“Isssss it timmme?” hissed a deep voice as the crocodile maw extended above the surface, glistening teeth reflecting the pale light. “Not yet my friend, not yet, soon the General will be at our mercy. He will come and we shall destroy him.” The large reptilian head nodded then submerged into the black waters again. Turning Runihura cackled evilly as he caught sight of the news, where Titan was beginning his distraction while the real plans unfolded.

Overload had sped towards the location of the hoboes first, but Sphinx was long gone by then. She was currently in Freedom Port, having followed the direction the hoboes has pointed her in, and driving at a distinctly slower speed as she looked down ally ways up buildings. She didn’t see anything, but a primitive instinct inside her could just sense something big, powerful, and mean was near by. She remembered watching something on Animal Planet sort of like that; when antelope could sense a lion nearby right before they pounced. Overload didn’t like what that made her in that little analogy, so she decided to do something un-helpless-little-herbivore-like.
“Here ugly, giant, mutant kitty, kitty, kitty, here kitty! Animal control!” Worst case scenario, she gave away her position and he had a cool head, but if she got lucky, maybe he’d get pissed off, make a mistake, and pounce while she was on red alert. Better than getting ambushed while her head’s turned down an ally.

She pushed through the people beginning to gather, searching out her uncle's car. Everyone still seemed too caught up in the earlier drama to notice Cyclone simply open the door and start the car. Her uncle, still in the crowd, frowned as he subconsciously patted his pocket where the key to his car was. Still there.
Morgan caught sight of the General, parking the car a few meters back from the crowd. She shoved past the police, ducking under the tape and picking up a piece of debris in her hands. She gripped it tightly in her hands, glaring at Titan. "Oi! Tall and ugly! Over here!"

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.

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.

Thanks for the kind words, Culex.
RPs losing steam and simply dying on the vine is one of the more frustrating features of online gaming - especially when the game itself is very promising. We'll just have to see about making sure we maintain some solid activity in that case as this game has a lot of potential.

Skallagrim,
I copied the profile of the Deadeye character that I played in the previous incarnation of the game over to this version. I'm still trying to find my way around the new Roleplay feature, so I'm hoping that I did this correctly. As I try and write the character into the action by all means do not hesitate to point out anything that I need to adjust so that things do not become out of sync with any new directions you have chosen for the game. I'm very much looking forward to seeing where things go.
Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City
I hope everyone gets into this RP and helps to bring it to life.

Re: [OOC] Heroes of RolePlay City
Nameless goons and thugs can be used as cannon fodder all you want. However named villains or named organizations cannot be destroyed or killed. Respect other peoples work and intellectual property and we will do the same to yours.
Also treat this as a DC/Marvel/Dark Horse type of universe where the fights that happen are better when the villains pound the crap outta the heroes sometimes. Also feel free to establish alternate identities for your heroes and families or occupations and love interests. Make this role-play breathe life.
