Guy, I'm normally the first to go with individual submissions, but for a good villain game I'm thinking we might want to up our game a little and submit related concepts. If this is the Marvel Universe we are going to be WAY out gunned SHIELD fantastic Four, Avengers, Xmen. We are going to need every advantage we can get and team work is definitely going to be one of them.

Also I'll be sending feedbacks either later tonight or tomorrow |

Also, just read the revised background. Um, are we talking total world peace here? I'm not sure the Marvel background is really set up to cope with that. What happened to bad guys like Appocolypse, or Dr Doom, Mr Sinister, Loki, Thanos and all the other big bads they had out there? Also what about the external threats like Galactus, the Kree, the Shi-ar, the Skrull? What happened to the fear and hatred of mutants? Ok, so that might not be a good example as the only reason that continues is because mutants are apparently stupid and have never heard of PR companies but I digress. What about organisations like Hydra, The Hand, The Hellfire Club?
I think world peace is possible if enforced, but changing human nature (greed, fear of the unknown etc) might need a little work.

I should probably get some more details about all the different teams, tough there are a lot of them, I don't have the knowledge to put them all in one big scoop. BUUUUUUUUT! I'll try to make the setting clearer. Bad guys haven't disapear, not all of them and far from it. The treaty was made mostly by humans, as nations to get a certain peace over the full-on mystical, super powered people that live amongs them. Tough even if this treaty is suppose to bring world peace, it's still very fragile and could easily collapse. In an event where a lot of vilains were taken into custody or sent away in one way or the other, Earth has found a bit of rest. To enforce such peace, new rules are applying for both humans and mutants as to set a certain ''equality''. More or less. Laws that would include mutants as a new race of human and that would be given the same rights. Tough, more often then never, this would be a case by case thing. Laws that says that one with super powers should not be permitted to use them unless they have a permit or what not to do so. According to the World Peace Treaty, mostly known as the W.P.T. event. Most super heroes agreed to respect a certain code in order to keep said World Peace. Peace extend to the surface mostly and of course, vilains still roam around and try to cause chaos and mayhem, but that's why super heroes are there for no? And of course, changing human's nature is far from being easy and that's why, peace is mostly just an illusion at some point, but, it's there and got people aggreeing on one thing. Super heroes and super vilains are dangerous, they'd rather tag together with non-super people, a.k.a other humans, and having a feeling of safety. Even if it's as strong as a sheet of paper...litterally. But that's another burden for the super heroes as they'd have the World on their back while the bad guys...well they just don't care! Is that clearer for you Janus ? |

Lovin' it So, basically people decided super villains/ Alien menaces/ evil gods are a bigger threat to their lives that their petty squabbles over religion, skin colour, money etc. Actually makes sense. |

Ok, so I have three concepts, dunno which to go with.
1) Alien from planet (?), was on transport vessel that got knocked off course. Vessel was subsequently shot down by one countries military. Alien saw family and friends burn to death in the crash. Now REALLY hates humans and wants revenge. Probably going to throw together a telepathic speedster but powers are less important than the actual background. This will only really work however if everyone is non human.
2) Plain old thieft. Just wants to get rich. Slightly boring concept but it's a good back up. Not sure what power set to use but I'll see what everyone else it pitching and throw something in that compliments everyone.
3) Horseman of Appoloclypse. I was going to go with a version of War, except moving away form the traditional muscle bound destructive version and use a concept from Neil Gaiman/Terry Pratchet, of someone who causes wars, almost certainly telepath, might throw a couple of other powers in there as well.

1. I have a certain half fae cat that I could pitch if you really like this one, he has a really bad attitude though... I mean think cat with a super genius IQ... Yeah bad tude.
2. Stay away from my things peasant.
3. Interesting enough the person I just pitched could easily play Famine considering he can do Energy drain at range 4 with a 25foot radius.... GMPC gest stronger from Death.....

I'll go for an anarchist/arsonist. Seems appropriate.

All interesting ideas. Now, I was wondering, does any of you feel like playing in an alliance of some sort? Would you rather start solo and slowly join each other in the grand scheme of vilainy? Up to you, I don't mind either way.

Ex-weapon X Merc who loves chaos and fun, who will be a Magneto copycat. Definitely won't be the best teammate in the group, but will be valuable.
If I had a choice, I'd like an individual start, so we could see the value in teaming up with one another. If we went the other way, though, I wouldnt mind.

GMPC gest stronger from Death..... Tell me more of this kitty of which you speak. I like cats. How does everyone feel about pitching non humans? I'd love to try the horsemen thing, the only problem is Apocolypse is deeply stupid, or at least the way he is written is. He's supposed to be Int 6 and practically immortal, That alone should warrant more than the half dozen comics it takes to beat him every time. ... Which makes me wonder if I can create Apocolypse within the points range. |

but that is up to you guys.
