UPDATE: We are currently only seeking females for this RP.
After Captain America went missing in 1944 and Dr. Abraham Erskine's lab was destroyed, all traces of the Super Soldier formula were lost. Over the years, many tried to replicate it, and most attempts ended in failure -- that was until early 2014, when Oscorp Industries developed a substance called the Oz Compound that eventually evolved into a mutant virus and was unleashed upon the world during a security breach.
The virus was dormant at first and undetectable, resulting in infected individuals in and around New York City unwittingly taking the virus with them to major airports and spreading it on a global scale. When forced into a heightened level of fear or anger, the virus would suddenly jump to life, mutating the genes of the host to a varying degree. Some only changed slightly, gaining superhuman powers, while others became incredibly dangerous monsters.
In the wake of this outbreak, our characters come together to fight for a common cause -- taking down the ones responsible. Prior to the creation of the virus, there were no mutants and there was no S.H.I.E.L.D. or Avengers. These come into existence as the story unfolds.
I will be playing Spider-Man as my main character, and I may bring in Wolverine or Quicksilver as a second. I will also be playing several characters as NPCs/villains.
Primary Character:
Name: Peter Benjamin Parker
Alias: Spider-Man
Age: 18 (almost)
Birthday: March 22nd
Hometown: New York City, NY, USA
Powers & Equipment
Enhanced strength, stamina, agility, and reflexes; adhesion to surfaces; slight precognitive sense; wrist-mounted web-shooters; utility belt under suit (w/ web cartridges, sticky trackers, micro-bombs, and other tiny gadgets)
Biography
Peter was born and raised in New York City. When he was about eight years old, he was in a car accident with his parents, Richard and Mary, from which he was the sole survivor. He was in a coma for about five weeks after the accident, and suffered minor memory loss. After he was released from the hospital, Peter went to live with his Uncle Ben and Aunt May.
Ten years later, the Mutant Outbreak became the number one subject in every major media outlet. In the weeks leading up to the outbreak, Peter discovered his father used to work with a group of Oscorp scientists consisting of Curt Conners, Reed Richards, and Victor von Hassen. He sought them out, did a little poking around, and ended up in a restricted area where he got bitten by a genetically altered spider and developed superpowers.
This started a chain reaction of events that led to the release of the Mutant Virus and the birth of new superheroes and villains.
