So I've submitted Kyle Rayner as White Lantern (with the option to swap him to Green if mcr doesn't want to deal with the "spectrum" stuff). I may also crank out a Flash. I originally wasn't going to refer much to Blackest Night or Wrath of the First Lantern, as they take place a little further into the DC Continuity than I was envisioning using, but having Kyle with the White Lantern Ring presents an opportunity to use Volthoom who, as Villain Ex Machinae go, is a useful one for purposes of this story. I don't mind the emotional spectrum stuff so much, though if Kyle's going to be running around, so will Hal, John, and Guy, and they'll all have let's say differing ideas of what each should be doing in this Crisis (ignoring Parallax for the moment).

(May also still do Batman, I'm really digging the idea of a grizzled, veteran Batman who doesn't trust the others to succeed without his guidance) That would be cool. There would be interesting interactions between him and The Question from Earth 3 who I submitted.

The way I wrote up his background, you really don't have to include Blackest Night or WotFL. I intentionally bypassed all of the Ion/Entity stuff and just wrote up his White Power Ring as the latter day version, the one that "shifted" from being a GL ring, so you can use as much or as little of the lore as you need for your story.

Batman submitted. As a wild card I think I might make an Aquaman LOL

Don worry I wasn’t including intelligence in that as his intelligence never changed. Wisdom of Solomon just grants him general knowledge

So just a quick update: I think we're getting close to settling on character concepts, and I'll be comparing folks' builds to see if there's a shared sense of power scale for the characters soon, though I do want to give folks still working on pitches a chance to send them in so I can look at everyone's build together. Is anyone (cough Dhark cough) still thinking of sending something in?

I’m most strongly leaning towards Constantine.

Okay fellow players I created Shazam and plastic man. After doing more research I really enjoy who plastic man is which means I’m torn.
Shazam has the mind of a 14 year old and I like the idea of him finding out what he can do and being around other Supers and trying to fit in.
Plastic Man is has a wealth of playful banter potential, a wonderful bad to good back story and trying to stay good, a fun (and a lot more powerful than I thought) powerset.
So who would y’all rather have on the team?

So who would y’all rather have on the team? I have no way of knowing who you're going to have more fun playing, and my advice (as always) is "whoever you'll have the most fun with." HOWEVER, if you decide to go to with Plas, I'm going to need to hit the drawing board to build a Superman LOL

So far we’ve got The Question, Hawkgirl, maybe Lantern or Batman, maybe Constantine, and maybe Captain Marvel or Plasticman. No Kryptonians spoken for yet, and Aquaman, Flash, Martian Manhunter, and Wonder Woman are other big Justice League names so far left out.

I think Flash would be up my sleeves if possible. Maybe with a little twist to make it my own

If Ninja decides on Plas, you can fully expect me to create Superman
