Eh, I prefer the magic version, since the whole point of his character was "Why choose between them? I have time to learn both," since he is technically functionally immortal as long as he's stuck inside his armour. XD But yes, Doom has always been badass. XD<br/><br/><br/>OH. I just sent this concept timeline to SnS, and I thought I'd post it here so that anybody who thinks they could see a possible area for their character getting involved could let me know. Seriously, I would like ideas of connections and whatnot, so if you see anything at all, please let me know. :-)<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">- 1985: Aquaman is born and begins being raised as the heir to the Atlantean throne.<br/><br/>- 2005: Aquaman comes to the throne at the age of 20, but is exiled from Atlantis after a faction calling themselves "Loyalists Of The Trident" lead a coup against the new king.<br/><br/>- 2006: After a year in exile, Aquaman meets the JLA for the first time and aids them in several missions, [possibly including their fight against Darkseid; waiting for SnS to yay or naye it. Possibly how Aquaman and Atlantis came to Darkseid's attention. ] then leaves to begin marshalling his forces for his reclamation attempt.<br/><br/>- 2007: Aquaman approaches the JLA for help reclaiming his throne, and the JLA agree to help.<br/><br/>- 2008: Aquaman reclaims his throne in Atlantis in January of 2008, and pledges Atlantean support to the JLA once the Kingdom has recovered.<br/><br/>- 2010: The JLA approaches Atlantis for aid against Darkseid again, and he agrees. Soon after they leave, Atlantis "goes dark" and all communication between it and the surface stop, and any expeditions to discover the cause never return. The Loyalists Of The Trident, with Darkseids help, have created a rival to Atlantis and have started a war for supremacy, later known as "The Great Atlantean Schism." Aquaman is unable to aid the JLA against Darkseid a second time.<br/><br/>- 2011: Loyalist forces clash with Royalists in the sea around Atlantis as The Long Night - a year-long siege of Atlantis's last remaining territory - begins.<br/><br/>- 2012: Aquaman makes a pilgrimage to The Shrine of Poseidon and gains his favour, granting him a massive boost in his powers and the Tridents abilities. Using these new abilities and new forces granted by Poseidon, Aquaman breaks The Long Night and begins The Dawn Offensive; a massive campaign to reclaim Atlantis's lost territory, fighting back against The Loyalists Darkseid-enhanced soldiers.<br/><br/>- Early 2014: The Battle Of The Abyss. No details found on record except that it broke the Loyalist forces and ended with the utter annihilation of their version of Atlantis and the re-establishment of contact between Atlantis and the surface. <br/><br/>- Late 2014: Atlantean Seers predict a series of disasters that starts in Gotham and ends in the destruction of the planet. Aquaman leaves his trusted generals and civil governors in charge and departs for Gotham to attempt to stop whatever is coming. He takes up residence in a up-scale hotel as a cover, using funds from the Imperial Treasury (which, thankfully, his governors have managed to return to something resembling wealth in his absence). <br/><br/>- 2015: Still investigating rumours of all sorts of villains schemes in Gotham, largely flying solo and thwarting crimes on the side.</div></div><br/><br/><br/>Enjoy the read! :D<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>While I'm thinking about it, I find myself more and more enamoured with the idea of bringing in Nightstar at some point in the future...she would likely come from an Alternate Universe and be trapped in Earth 2 (since she's the daughter of Starfire and Nightwing), which I see as offering some interesting possibilities...plus, it would be hilarious if Nightwing didn't know who she was and hit on her.
