You may have read about my Age of Heroes Game, set in the Third Age. Well I'm looking for players for a one-shot game in the Second Age- the age of heroes like Spider-Man, Batman, the Avengers, the Justice League, etc. You can choose characters DC, Marvel, other fiction, or original characters.
You send a concept with challenges and then I tell you how many stones you get.
Not sure the concept yet, I'll come up with something after you guys send in some concepts. Maybe the Defenders or something?

Don't know if I can apply to this one as well since I'm in the First game, but hey... the worse you could say is "no", right? I'd like to apply as Arcueid Brunestud from the manga "Tsukihime". Princess of a superior species of vampires known as the "True Ancestors" and slayer of the "Apostles of Death" (half-human vampires that kill without rime nor reason). Arcueid is at least 800 years old, and she hunts regular vampires, the Apostles of Death and other supernatural threats, an act that she considers as being "her" duty. She likes humans and their company and is sorry to be forced to drink human blood to survive, although she do restricts herself to feed on evil, criminal victims (in the Manga, she didn't need to drink blood to survive, but it adds depth to the character in my opinion). She is very knowledgeable about the past and the surpernatural, but is very naive about modern subjects and science. Her powers includes several vampiric classics, such as superhuman physical abilities (Strength, Speed, Agility, Durability as well as reflexes) and healing rate, deadly claws that cut through concrete, the ability to hypnotise weak-willed mortals and the ability to feel the presence of the undead, as well, of course, of the ability to drain energy by drinking blood. As a True Ancestor, she does not suffer from the burn of sunlight as other vampires do, though she do fear silver weapons and must still drink blood to survive. She would have the following drawbacks: -Looking non-human (-2; natural red eyes, fangs) -Secret (-3; is a vampire. She knows humans are afraid of her kind, and so she must usually hide her real nature from them.) -Unaware of modern laws and ethics (-2) -Vulnerability to Silver Weapons (-3; x2 damage) -Unusual mindset (-2, as a very ancient Vampire, Arcueid's way of thinking is very unusual and she sometimes react in a strange way to events, which may trouble those interacting with her and give away the fact she ain't normal.) -Compulsion to stick up for underdog (-4; Arcueid likes humanity and will protect them no matter what, especially against vampiric threats.) -Haunted past (-1; although she knows she's doing a lot more good than bad, she always feel sorry whenever she must take a life to quench her thirst) -Deadly enemies (-5; most vampires, especially the 27 Apostles of Death) -Duty (-3; protect humanity from vampires and other supernatural threats) Arcueid usually looks like the following: When she fights seriously or threatens someone, she takes this appearance: But her "Looking non-human" doesn't increase at that point, because she is likely not to look like human at that time anyway, lol.

Yeah, sure you can play this game Stark. Maybe Raya could make a cameo or be mentioned during this adventure as well?

If you feel she could fit it somewhere, I'll be glad to do it! ^_^ Perhaps Raya could even know Arcueid, since both are very old and fight roughly on the same side.
After all, she's supposed to know several heroes of the 2nd age since she's immortal. lol.
As for Arcueid, I'll make the C.A.D with complete background as soon as I know how many stones I get.

Since Arcueid is an established character you get as many stones as you need.

You have my thanks. I'll make the C.A.D with the background right away. Okay, maybe not right now, 'cause I gotta go to sleep, but as soon as I have it I'll send it to you.

Hmmmm..... How about a revamp of Angel from the X-men with a few "flavor" differences? I was thinking of making a few changes. (Most of which are descriptions of his abilities.) I'll send you more details if it's ok.

lordzack, I might have another idea for a character in this game instead of Arcueid...
Do you know of the Shadow/Lamont Cranston?

Yes, thanks to Wikipedia. However wouldn't he have been active before even the First Age? You might want to create a similar character, however.

Well, technically, he doesn't exist at all in Marvel, so I thought I'd make a more recent, slightly different guy, with the same name and very similar powers.
