Marvel Literary RP Server ( Battleworld 2015 setting ) Brand new server

With Doomsday and Secret Wars coming in theatres i wanted to see where everyone's minds are at with Marvel and what better way to interact than with a fresh start in Secret Wars!

-------------------------------------------

Plot: Battleworld has manifested. Pieces of the multiverse all converge onto a single planet held together by God Emperor Doom. In this Game of Thrones like literary RP you can either create your own OC to interact with canon characters or take up the mantle of a character you are fond of.

- Comic book knowledge is not required since this is a memory wiped world. What you bring is your own material without feeling restricted to canon events being upheld.

- Restricted characters: Dr Doom, The Fantastic Four, Star Lord, Spider-Man ( Peter and Miles ), Thanos and the Black Order, Cyclops, Captain Marvel, Thor Odinson, Black Panther, Namor.

*The restricted characters have lore reasons as to why they aren't playable but im more than happy to discuss making an exception aside from Doom*

- 18+ Server, This server is not for the intention of being a dating sim but with the plot being inspired by Game of Thrones politics, there is always a possibility for mature themes to be littered in a scene.

- Please be capable of writing up to 2 paragraphs for this RP. I don't expect you to keep up with it for every post as it is RP dependent but we are trying to distance ourselves from lazy writing

- We try to be respectful to everyone who joins regardless of their traits. Any bullying or discrimination will be met with a ban.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Combat/Conflict

Combat is allowed but consensual between parties. Regardless of who you play there is the courtesy of not meta gaming and not going "god mode" on another character for the sake of glorifying your own. Conflict must be met with a "give/take" system and everything must be green lit between both parties.

Marvel landscape, Memory Wipe

Looking for a small group for a literary RP. The landscape is set in marvel but there is a mass memory wipe and a very small amount of characters are restricted. This is not a romance based RP it’s suppose to be very “game of thrones” like in politics with people running different regions. There is lore but I’m looking for a group of 20 at the max. If more people join the better.

I said it’s not a romance based RP but that doesn’t mean that it’s excluding it entirely, I just prefer it to happen organically rather than going in with the intention.

I have Mr Sinister taken as a character and there is Ghost Rider taken as well so far, if you’re a fan of marvel whether it’s MCU or Comics this RP is completely friendly to those who are familiar with comics and new.

For those of you who ARE familiar, the setting is in Battleworld 2015

Some characters are restricted but there is the rest of the marvel mythos to pull your character out of or create an original one yourself.

Marvel Literary RP Server ( Battleworld 2015 setting ) Brand new server

Hosting a Literary RP discord server for comic enthusiasts such as myself. This is in anticipation for the movie(s) coming out this year and next year.

The setting - Battleworld 2015 map. All forty canonical domains are playable: Bar Sinister, Technopolis, the Monarchy of M, Higher Avalon, the Wastelands, King James' England, everything down to what's kept behind the Shield.

The one hard rule - God Emperor Doom is not playable. Not by anyone, me included. The Sheriff and the Thor Corps are the face of his authority, and those you can defy, evade, and bargain with.

How it plays - third person, past tense, prose. Two to five paragraphs a post, replies within about two days. If you dont reply in two days your character becomes an NPC and others are available to take that character if requested.

Characters are first come, first served, and I do clear out people who go quiet, not for tidiness, but because it isn't fair for a character to sit locked behind someone who stopped showing up. I've taken Mr. Sinister for myself

It's a brand new community server so currently I am the only one in it but with 4-5 people it will be more than enough to get something started. This is also taking place during a time the comics didn't cover so the history hasn't been written and i'd like to give as much creative freedom to the writer/player.

It's a literary RP server first but it doesn't mean it cant be a server for people to mingle and socialize with.

Player looking for a campaign

been a forever DM for a very long time and i still am for this DC and Marvel crossover campaign i have going on right now ( it is great )

However i do have some free time in my hands and i've been itching to be a player again, i like campaigns with serious tones that let comedy flow in naturally and not forced.

A list of characters that I'd like to/be willing to play are:

Fantomex
Cyclops
Gambit
Human Torch
Spider Noir
Agent Venom
Venom
Moon Knight
Bucky
Star Lord
Adam Warlock
Nova
Sabertooth

im throwing this out there mostly for people who are potentially looking for a player to fill in. I don't mind joining the middle of a campaign either. I also get that there would be some sort of "vibe check" before joining.

P.S if given time, i'd be more than happy to try to give a good Doom for a guest appearance if you had the occasion for it. If i'm doing a villain i can focus on getting "in character" by reading up on them before the character shows up.

Prediction on the Big Three build up and introduction of the Justice League

Just wanted to post this here because some people are scratching their heads with how long its taking for Batman and Wonder Woman to be revealed.

Superman is already handled and established with Man of Tomorrow coming. He's the Iron Man of this universe and we'll probably see him pop up A LOT ( not complaining here )

Wonder Woman i'm guessing that DC is taking their time in handling her, she hasn't been doing great in representation and I think DC is going to try and do what marvel did with Cyclops and quietly work on Wonder Woman's popularity BEFORE they start showing details/trailers/casting of the movie. The saga is titled "Gods and Monsters" so Wonder Woman is arguably the most important one to be done RIGHT amongst the big three. They will work on her comics, work on representation in other forms of media so that when she enters the big screen it feels warranted, valid, and needed.

Batman...I genuinely believe that the Deathstroke and Bane movie is also trying to build up Batman's status as a vigilante. We know little to nothing about the DCU Batman and thats for the best. Batman was always the character in the big three that "surprised" everyone since he is JUST A GUY. By the time we get Brave and the Bold we will have heard about the Robins, we know he's put individuals like Dr Phosphorus in prison, we know he's basically a "boogeyman" in the night...Clayface, Deathstroke, and Bane all getting projects before him can only mean they want to build the LEGEND of Batman before we see him on the big screen so that it validates those moments that seem like an ass pull. It's literally a matter of them saying in the future "well he HAS beaten Bane and Deathstroke ( guessing here ), and he has dealt with Clayface, you've seen what those guys are capable of and Batman STILL beat them, you may not have seen it but it's canon and because of that, it makes sense for him to have pulled X feat off in this new movie"

By the time the big 3 has formed you have every element installed for the universe to move forward under the big three.

You have Superman as the beacon of hope for everyone in the universe

You have Wonder Woman, representing equality and balance between the ideals of Batman and Superman.

You then have Batman representing intellect, human resilience, and justice

With Superman out of the way, the other two require VERY DELICATE timing, execution, and build up in order for them all to genuinely feel like pillars of this universe.

This is just to explain why we haven't heard jack shit on Batman and Wonder Woman.

Thoughts on Cyclops aside from the obvious? ( Too many DPS in the game/Vanguards and Strategist suffer immensely ) Returning player here

I haven't really played Rivals since Elsa's release. I ignored White Fox and Black Cat entirely ( no hate on their fans, if you enjoy them im happy for you, genuinely )

Devil Dino came out and my gf finally found a tank to enjoy the game with ( she's previously a strategist main, Peni user as well but for fill in when needed )

I have more DPS lords than i do Vanguard or Strategists but that isn't me trying to flex im just being transparent here because stigma aside, most of my favorite characters from comics are unfortunately DPS ( im actually glad Gambit is a strategist, I main him, Adam, and Deadpool for healing ) with only Captain America, Venom, and Deadpool for lord. In overwatch i dabbled with DPS but at heart i was a Reinhardt main dedicated to play for the team.

With all that said, i've been a fan of cyclops for a while, so while i COMPLETELY SYMPATHIZE for every strategist and vanguard main looking at him and groaning. I get it 100% and it's wrong to bring another DPS with the state Vanguards and strategists are at right now.

All that being said, instead of trying to go into quick matches or ranked lobbies to play him, I've been practicing in skewed AI lobbies. I've seen a lot of obnoxious posts along the lines of "Im playing him, dont ask me to switch, dont ask me to help, i will throw if you ban him or pick him" and im not trying to associate myself with those people. That's why i structured this post with context rather than just say "i love cyclops more than you and thats why im going to main him"

Which leaves me to an honest question which puts his skill ceiling and simplistic kit into debate along with his fandom ( including people like me )

How do y'all feel about Cyclops overall in the game?

And for those willing to help me plan around my time. How long should i wait before things calm down with people trying to fiend over him?

Looking for a player ( with a potential plus one ). Details in the body

This is a bit awkward for me but my group had a falling out with a rather unpleasant individual. We are a very tight knit group and it’s been difficult trusting people to come in but my group also knows i am looking for people to fill in for the guy that left. I'll leave the details for the campaign ( in summary ) and a few notes about my group, if this peaks your interest than shoot me a message (: if not i completely get it

Campaign: Infinity Clash.

Premise: DC and Marvel crossover story. DC characters are bleeding into the marvel universe at a crucial time before a series of events unfold. With key story characters ( not taking spotlight away from the player but rather narrative tools ) such as Superboy Prime, Lobo, Absolute Joker, Dr Phosphorus, and more DC characters.

As of now, the party consists of Spider-Man, A necromantic journalist ( player who is focusing on RP rather than combat ), and another player who is switching off from Black Knight to a spellcasting support.

Dr Doom is the benefactor of the journalist and the party by proxy.

Doom and the party have attended the X Men's Gala in Krakoa. Doom had a meeting and he wanted a journalist for positive publicity in Krakoa.

The Avengers are missing, *not dead* just missing around the same time the DC heroes started pouring in.

Superboy Prime is acting as an independent agent and the party is trying to recruit him because "Doom wants him"

Prime is currently getting involved in the Annihilation storyline with Sentry, altering the series of events after Rocket came to earth briefly for recruiting.

Norman Osborne is leading the Dark Avengers in absence of the Avengers ( The party is also trying to steer Bob toward's Doom's side/the party's side as an ally )

Absolute Joker is trying to invade the Spiderverse and has a resistance to this universe's magic and reality warping abilities ( not immune, just resistant to cheap tricks )

Lobo fought against Ultron, after a while he won. He is aiding in the Annihilation War as well with Guy Gardner

Thanos, Apocalypse, Knull, Gorr, Dormammu, and Mr Sinister were left unchecked/unsupervised by the party ( not that they could stop them but they had opportunities to see what they were up to )

Kingpin is also mayor of New York and outlawed Vigilantes.

The party broke Simon Williams ( MCU version to show some love ) out of the raft on behest of Doom.

Group: We have a small server meant for DnD and a close knit group at that, i dont want it to sound exclusive but its how anyone would address a circle of friends. We talk about all sorts of things from games from Donkey Kong Country to BloodBorne and then to niche games like SCP or For Honor. We also like to have healthy debates.

If yall have any questions regarding the campaign im down to talk about it without spoiling but as of now i have like 1-2 spots open to continue.

( talking to people, the searching is done for now but please feel free to use this post for recruiting )

The Conquest debate we will never have the answer for.

Im gonna get straight to the point here without trying to sound conceited or arrogant because i AM posting this to also start a "healthy" debate in which i am more than happy to be proven wrong..

People need to realize that Conquest has never shown to take a fight seriously IN THE STORY of Invincible. This does not make him "weak", in fact i think it probably fuels the sentiment of "being second to Thragg in strength" because as the show has stated, he survived the Scourge, he survived the purge of Viltrumites, he was one of the FEW who initially wanted the smoke from Thragg, he survived Battle Beast ( upcoming comic ), he survived losing his right arm in battle, and the level of destruction he displayed from "playing" with Mark is city level.

Im not here to glaze Conquest, despite this post looking like one, i just hate that the show also took out some key dialogue moments in his second fight with Mark...

The show went pretty close to the comics for the second fight BUT when Mark initially tackled him away from Oliver, Mark clarified ( mostly for the reader ) that he knocked ALL of the air out of Conquest. That's why he wasnt even able to say anything when mark was choking him, not even a rasp. And that is why he was reckless in trying to get him off.

Point being.

- Omni Man is NOT stronger than Conquest, he puts up a way better fight than Mark but after the beating the Guardians gave him in the show, and Season 4 existing...Omni Man is very susceptible to bone breaking attacks from Conquest, the one thing for sure though that Nolan has going for him is being able to break Conquest's metal arm. That is where i think the fight is up in the air for debate honestly.

- as Kirkman said, Mark vs Conquest is comparable to the weaker team in a sports league going against the pros, however the weaker team wins because they wanted it that much more than the pros.
- Mark was LUCKY that Conquest brushed him off to go for Oliver, which leads to him being able to knock the oxygen out of Conquest which further debilitates him from fighting Mark off ( although pulling the rope out of the hat trick was a huge "fuck you" before Mark killed him ) the fight would have been a repeat of round 1 except Eve isnt there to blast him.

- EVEN MORE SO. If Eve wasn't around, Conquest would have won against mark after his ( noteworthy ) monologue.

Conquest was not weak, putting him on fraud watch for being 0-2 is like laughing at Pacquiao for losing against Mayweather. It completely dismisses the point of Mark getting the upper hand on his opponents from

  1. getting aid when it is offered despite the repercussions of said aid being present.
  2. Locking the fuck in when the opportunity arises. ( corny i know but it is a reoccurring theme )

P.S this post was made as a healthy distraction towards things going on. Just getting a debate/discussion going without trying to insult anyone
