Interest Check: Legends of Tomorrow/"Legion"

[mcr]

Anyone interested in doing anything time travel related in the DC Multiverse a la Legends of Tomorrow, with maybe a tie in to the Legion?

[Goats]

Im so down

[Gris]

It could be amusing, I'm interested.

[leska]

[lilithsboy]

Sure

[mcr]

Hoping to get one or two more before I start taking pitches/working on the details.

[Andrew]

I'd be interested in hearing a few more details of what you have in mind

[slickwilly00]

is it pretty much a straight rip of legends or is it just in the same style?

[mcr]

Just in the same style. The idea will borrow heavily from the basic premise, of a time traveller, ostensibly Rip Van Hunter, but potentially could involve folks from the 31st century, contacting some of the DCU's, ahem, let's say more unsung heroes and anti-villains, to fight a threat to time itself. (Elasticman OR Plasticman would be an amusing choice, perhaps for a little while, though it's not a strict requirement, certainly both would be frowned upon, and even I'm not 100% sold on the gimmick).

Without spoiling too much, the idea for the first issue would touch upon the mysterious disappearance of Superman from the timeline; the time traveller recruiting these heroes knows he's *somewhere* (or some*when*) but can't seem to locate him.

I'll take pitches between now and the end of next weekend on May 1. Because I'll be asking for some variants within reason from some of the DC's canon, I'm not going to be too much of a stickler on the stone cap, within reason. As previously stated, think more along the lines of, say, Elasticman, rather than say, the Spectre (Again, I'm not saying I *Want* Elasticman, but he's the first non-traditional hero that comes to mind). If you twist my arm hard enough I may be willing to consider more "mainstream" characters. People who want to kill other people for fun are probably not going to fit in too well (sorry Joker fans).

If you have any questions or concerns don't hesitate to bring them up. I'm a fan of collaboration so if you'd like, feel free to post your pitches here. I can chat with you privately if I have any concerns, or if you have any private concerns.

I can't help but gravitate towards L.E.G.I.O.N. (circa '89, from Keith Giffen, Alan Grant and Barry Kitson) and their sometimes tragic, sometimes funny adventures. No, I'm not pitching Lobo (even if he amuses me, the Main Man probably doesn't fit here) but I'm leaning towards Phase (Enya/Tinya Wazzo). She has a convoluted and twice retconned story (well, nowadays what DC character doesn't) but her ties to the 30th Century legion, general backstory, character, simple powers and cool costume just got me then and I think they got me now.

For this game I'm inclining for her to be part Cargitte and thus the ability to separate into three bodies. Having been separated in time and space shortly after birth (for evil reasons, protection or what have you) her three bodies have developed completely different personalities and have lost their connection, being unable to merge back or even know of each other (so they could be allies, enemies or whatever). Growing as a normal girl in the 80's and 90's, she is unaware of her phasing powers until the recruitment that kickstarts the game (I guess).

Of course, any feedback is welcome. For anyone that has no idea about who the hell I'm talking about: dc.wikia.com/wiki/Enya_Wazzo_(New_Earth)

[slickwilly00]

so do original cads?

[Goats]

I'm thinking of doing Professor T.O. Morrow that managed to trainsport his consciousness into an old Red tornado body. He comes form a somewhat post apocalyptic future involving the rise of tyrannical super powered dictators and has had to continuously upgrade and keep his robot body functioning with cruder and cruder technology, making him very piecemeal.

[mcr]

I'd hold off on CADS at least initially. Think of an unsung character you'd like to play as. I like Red Tornado and Phase as the pitches so far.

So I think I'll try out using the lost star sapphire for this one. Okay so my idea would be this star sapphire finding herself on earth after she had been missing during the blackest night event. She would have been in hibernation under the depths of the ocean with only bits and pieces of her memory and what had happened to her. She would recall being tasked to face a gauntlet in order to become the sapphires' champion of love, but she would draw blanks from there. Maybe have her recall snippets of a man in a green lantern suit attacking her on the way to the gauntlet? Cause some drama between sapphires and lanterns if the opportunity arises. Her personal story would involve what happened to her and why as well as main story.

Maybe Nubai would be allowed? She's the guard of doom's door and is wonder woman's sister so lol could be fun
