I am moving this thread to the ORP from the SRP, however, since it's location has changed, sex will no longer be allowed in the thread. You can refer to the fact that characters have become intimate, but no explicit details. Like, for example:
They walked down the hallway, unable to keep their hands off each other. When they got in the room, Jill shut the door, pushed Jack onto the bed, and they made love all night long.
If you want to detail it out more than that, do so through PM and not in the thread.
Characters can be Mutants or Mutates, heroes or villains. Before I go into too much detail, here's a timeline of the Jeffverse version of Ultimate Marvel:
3000 BC: En Sabah Nur is born in Akkaba, Egypt. He is one of the first humans to be born with an X-Gene, and displays many powers as he reaches adulthood, including immortality.
2980 - 2000 BC: En Sabah Nur seeks others like himself, gathering a group of followers. These early Mutants pose as gods, becoming the Egyptian Deities of legend.
1500 - 800 BC: There is a war between the Mutants, leaving very few alive. These remaining "gods" relocate to Greece, where they become the Titans.
700 - 100 BC: En Sabah Nur, going by the name Cronus, is eventually overthrown by his sons Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. He and the other Titans are thrown into an Abyss and locked away. After some time, Nur kills the other Titans and takes their powers, making him strong enough to break free. Using these new abilities, he takes on his sons and daughters and their offspring, thus slaughtering all the Greek Gods and taking their powers. However, one Mutant named Merlin is able to seal Nur up again, and this time, he is unable to break free.
6 BC - 0026 AD: Nur is able to reach out mentally to a woman named Mary in Israel, and convinces her he is God. He tricks her into accepting the spirit of his son, who in fact, is him. Thus, Nur is reborn as Jesus of Nazareth. As this savior, he is able to use his powers openly, though in the new body they are no where near as powerful as they were before. After the crucifixion, Nur leaves the body and resumes his normal form, though he does shapeshift to look like Jesus to convince people he has been resurrected, then departs again.
0027 - 0300: From the shadows, Nur plays as different gods for different regions, purely for the fun of it, pitting some religions against others. Merlin tries on numerous occasions to reseal him, but fails each time.
0400 -- 1400: Merlin and Nur have many battles, both being immortal. During this time, Nur takes the name Apocalypse, and nearly succeeds in his plans to conquer the world, but in the end, Merlin is finally able to seal Apocalypse deep within a pyramid in Egypt, where he would lie for over 700 years. Over the next century, Merlin seeks out others with abilities, and helps them use their powers.
1400 - 1800: More and more Mutants surface, and many of them are killed as witches, warlocks, or demons. Eventually, Merlin grows bored with eternity, and retreats within a white marble tomb deep beneath the ground, where he enters a deep sleep. Miles above his tomb, the colonies turn into what would be New York City.
1800 - 1944: More Mutants are born than ever before. In 1941, a new government agency is assembled to use blood samples from humans with abilities to create the Super Soldier Serum. This agency, eventually called S.H.I.E.L.D. (Superhuman Hazard Intervention, Enforcement, and Logistics Division), gives the Serum to Army Colonel Steve Rogers, who becomes Captain America. They create several other Super Soldiers, as well as recruit Mutants -- it was S.H.I.E.L.D. that discovered the X-Gene, and came up with the name Mutant for bearers of the X-Gene, and Mutates for those given powers by genetic engineering.
1945: In the final battles of WWII, Captain America and Red Skull are both killed when the facility they are fighting in is blown up.
1946 - 1980: After World War II, the Super Soldier program is shut down, but S.H.I.E.L.D. remains active to deal with Mutants and existing Mutates.
1980 - 1990: A thief manages to steal the old Super Soldier Serum, and sells it to several buyers on the black market, including Norman Osborn, Justin Hammer, and several people in other countries.
1994: The first one to perfect a new version of the serum, Justin Hammer orders his three lead scientists -- Richard Parker, Mary Parker, and Edward Brock Senior -- to experiment upon the homeless boys he kidnapped. Refusing, the three of them are killed, and the boys are experimented on anyways. Only three of the boys survive -- Flint Marko, Maxwell Dillon, and Morris Bench, who later become known as Sandman, Electro, and Hydroman, respectively. Edward Brock leaves behind a son, as do Richard and Mary -- Peter Parker, who is 4 years old at the time. He goes to live with his Uncle Ben and Aunt May.
1995 - 2007: Norman Osborn, angered at Hammer's success, goes a different route, and uses the serum to create what he calls the Oz Compound, experimenting on lab mice and other creatures. Things take an interesting turn in November 2007 when Peter Parker, during a field trip to Osborn Industries, is bitten by a spider that had been injected with the Oz Compound and had escaped. Over the following weeks, Peter develops spider abilities, eventually becoming Spider-Man.
Also during this timeframe, Charles Xavier starts teaching Mutants to use their powers at his mansion and creates the X-Men; Erik Lehnsherr recruits into the Brotherhood of Mutants, which is headquartered on the tropical island he calls Savage Land; Tony Stark produces a super suit and becomes Iron Man, the field leader of a new group of superheroes under S.H.I.E.L.D. jurisdiction, called the Avengers; General Nicholas Fury becomes the new director of S.H.I.E.L.D.; a Mutant experiment code-named Weapon X escapes S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. The Mutant -- going by the name Wolverine -- flees into the Canadian wilderness, where he hides for six years, living with the wolves. General Fury enlists the help of the X-Men to find him.
2008 and on: Four months after Peter becomes Spider-Man, Osborn takes a sample of his own blood, mixes it with Oz, then re-injects himself with it. The result: He turns into a huge green monster that can leap high and far and shoot out fireballs. Otto Octavius, Osborn's head scientist, is damaged in the blast caused by Osborn -- his metallic arms used for experiments are permanently bonded with his central nervous system, effectively giving him four extra limbs coming out of his back. He falls into a coma for a time.
After the construction of Cerebro, Xavier is able to locate Wolverine, and leads his X-Men to hunt him down. Nick Fury goes to join them, leaving Deputy Director Carol Danvers in command of S.H.I.E.L.D. Meanwhile, the Avengers have their hands full dealing with an upsurge of new Mutates -- after the explosion caused by Norman Osborn, traces of Oz Compound are caught in the fires, and rise into the sky with the smoke. The smoke drifts over New York, turning into a green cloud. Many people inhale the Oz Compound in the smoke before it finally passes. Some have immediate reactions, others have mutations that surface after a few hours or days, and others have yet to develop any mutations. For those effected, the abilities granted are as varied as with Mutant powers. Some victims only develop powers when their blood is introduced to a foreign source, such as a man being caught in a fire and gaining the ability to control flames, or a woman being bitten by a snake and then becoming a human/reptile hybrid.
To help combat the swarms of Mutates on the streets of New York, the Avengers put up advertisements where ever they can, desperate to increase their numbers. Spider-Man eventually joins after taking on many enemies by himself.
So, this game will have two starting points -- one will be with the X-Men hunting down Wolverine, and the other will be with the Avengers. The Brotherhood of Mutants, led by Magneto, is trying to get to Wolverine first to recruit him. Meanwhile, in New York City, the Green Goblin recruits evil Mutates, and forms a team he calls the Dementors. Otto Octavius wakes and becomes Doctor Octopus and Osborn's second in command.
Eventually, Wolverine heads into New York, leading his pursuers into the city as well. Magneto joins forces with Osborn, and they unite evil Mutants and Mutates under a new massive team of villains -- the Brotherhood of Dementors. To combat this new threat, Nick Fury, Charles Xavier, and Tony Stark unite the X-Men and Avengers into a new group called the Ultimates, hence the name of the game.
After the formation of the Ultimates, they construct the Triskelion, a massive compound built by S.H.I.E.L.D. on an artificial island in the Upper New York Bay. It contains docking facilities for ships up to the size of aircraft carriers, airstrips, and several buildings, primarily a large three-winged tower. It houses a hospital facility, laboratories, barracks for S.H.I.E.L.D. troops, at least one squadron of fighter jets, and specialized holding facilities for superhuman prisoners. Xavier builds the Xavier Institute of Advanced Studies (referring to the study of learning one's advanced abilities) on the island, and invites all the mutants living in his mansion to the school. With government funding through S.H.I.E.L.D., Xavier is able to hire professors and have a maximum of 800 students enrolled at a time, however, the student body usually does not exceed 400. S.T.R.I.K.E., the European version of S.H.I.E.L.D., will follow suit and create a similar school.
As for later story arcs, here are some of my ideas:
Cable and Bishop come back in time from the future to warn them about the Sentinels, and then the characters can somehow get lost in time. We could get a HUGE story arc out of that. After they fuck up the timeline a few times, we can have Doctor Strange sense distortions in the Space-Time Continuum, and he can use his powers to correct history, sending the characters to the moment before they jumped back in time, but also sending Cable and Bishop back to the future.
Another idea I had is that after several attempts to kill Apocalypse (which doesn't work because he keeps regenerating), they somehow turn him into a big crystal, and break him in half. Apocalypse's voice comes from and crystals and says "That will not stop me -- once I pull myself together, I will destroy you all!" to which they reply, "Good luck pulling yourself together." They lock each half inside an iron chest, then take them to the north and south poles. See, as long as his body senses pieces of itself exist, it won't generate new limbs and parts, but will seek to reunite with it's former pieces. Of course, if his limb is destroyed and thus the body can't sense it, it will grow a new one. The heroes will realize this, and thus by keeping the two parts separate, Apocalypse's powers are downsized -- he can't change back from the crystal until his two halves reunite. This works for a while, but eventually, the two halves lose their connection and become two separate beings. Suddenly, the world is attacked by a psychotic version of Apocalypse, who lacks the honor, intelligence, and reason of his former self -- he appears to be in a constant berserker state, laughing like a maniac as he destroys everything in sight only for the fun of it. This half doesn't speak much accept for the occasional "Bleed! I want you all to bleeeeed!!!" or "Power! Destruction! CHAOS!!!" or "Anyone who meets my eyes must die!!!"
The heroes deduce that if all his evil ambitions went to one half, all his good ones must have gone to the other. They go to the north pole and discover this half has indeed become independant and self-aware, but due to guilt for the crimes of his past, he chose to remain in exile. They finally convince him to stop his evil half, which he evenually does, killing him forever. For fear of returning to his evil ways or someone making a clone of him in the future, he prepares to destroy himself as he did his evil half, but in the end, they convince him not to do that by giving him the Mutant Cure, but due to his sheer power, it does not completely cure him, but takes him down to a level closer to others on the team, and gives him the appearance of a normal human.
I was thinking that due to his thousands of years worth of knowledge, he could become a professor at the school, and after Xavier's eventual death, he'll run the school. In light of his new outlook on life, this half of Apocalypse will take the name Wyatt Lightwalker, referring to the fact that he walks in the light and not the dark. Eventually, he becomes an active member of the Ultimates, taking the superhero name "Whitelighter," because after taking the cure, his most powerful ability is to create and manipulate light and produce bright energy balls, blasts, and force fields.
My active characters will be: Spider-Man, Iron Man, Wolverine, and Iceman.
My semi-active characters (meaning limited or occasional appearances and activity in the story) will be: Nick Fury, Carol Danvers, Charles Xavier, Magneto, Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Sandman, Hydroman, Electro, Cable, Bishop, Apocalypse, and Doctor Strange. I will only do bios for my four main chars.
