				Finally getting started!<br><br>I guess the important thing to know is I haven't set a specific story for the game. That's really between the players. The groups for a particular thread can be as large as you want (so long as we have enough players, obviously), so villains can team up or we can have multiple victims per each villain (mass mayhem is good ;D), and the story for each thread can either be determined on the fly, or the players can converse between one another via a PM.<br><br>The concept is simple: The Dark Knight is missing, and while the Bat is gone the baddies will play.<br><br>Players so far:<br><br>TaintedSoul as Harley<br>Great Triangle as Joker<br>RedEve as Catwoman<br>DreadD as Poison Ivy<br>Phunnie Bone as Two-Face<br>RubySlippers as Black Rose<br>Methos as Prometheus<br>Lanzlo as Bane<br><br>As of right now I don't have any victims set in stone, though there are some out there that have offered to take various roles. Once put together a character I'll add them to the list. If you're interested in a character... <strong>PM me!</strong> I'll edit this post specifically so that we can add to our cast.<br><br>Use this thread to discuss amongst the other players aspects of your particular threads you have questions about, or simply to ask me questions as to the direction I want to take the game. The idea at this point is very loose in order to give the gamers more leeway. Try to avoid OOC roleplay as best you can, because as loose as the story is there're bound to be issues come up and I want to be able to see if someone has a problem.<br><br>If I don't get to your questions within the first day of posting it, PM it to me. Chances are I flat-out missed it.<br><br>I'll get a generic villain thread set up today so that our villains can "socialize"... and once we start filling roles for victims we can start throwing them to the sharks. ;D<br><br>Let me know if I missed any details or if you have any other issues you want addressed. Thanks!<br><br><strong>EDIT 3/19/08:</strong> Added a new member to the cast.<br><strong>EDIT 3/22/08:</strong> Added a new member to the cast.<br><strong>EDIT 3/26/08:</strong> Added a new member to the cast.

				I think as the Joker, my first segment of RP will be to play the Joker's escape from Arkham Asylum.&nbsp; I'm thinking he'd use a broom, a plunger with the rubber head removed, several straight jackets tied toghether, a cardboard cone made from toilet paper rolls, and several hundred pidgeons to make his escape.

				That sounds like a plan. You'll probably want to get in touch with Tainted, as it would really be right to have those characters in separate minigames... of course, that's entirely up to you guys.<br><br>First couple of threads are going up presently:<br><br>Arkham Asylum<br>The Hole<br><br>The Hole is a generic hideout made specifically for the purpose of this game. It's a place where the villains can hang out when they're not... villainizing things. ;) That way they have something they can be doing while we're waiting on victims.

				Okay, a situation has come up and I need to make a quick clarification.<br><br>I will allow original victims into the frey on the grounds that they fit the mold of a Batman villain. Black Rose (RubySlippers) is one such character I'm allowing into the game. If you want to create a villain, however... convince me your character is deserving in you PM. :)

				Just doing a quick check to see how it's going so far.<br><br>Anyone wanting to play a victim doesn't necessarily have to deliver character information to me. Just let me know that you want to join the game and tell whoever you'll be playing with the basics when you set up your storylines.

				I would like to have an NPC guard in Arkham Asylum to go ahead and have the Joker dish out some hurting to to begin his sequence.&nbsp; (Most likely he'll end up pretty injured within a couple of posts.)

				I'll get an NPC post in ASAP.<br><br>The reason most people don't have threads yet is that I wanted players to discuss amongst themselves individual sideplots for their games. The only individual with whom we have something of a story with is Triangle. The rest of you, let me know if you have a story idea and I'll get a thread started for you, or if you don't know what you have in mind just yet, the generic thread is the Hole. It'd be a great place for some heated "discussion" between the villains (that scene with Penguin and Catwoman in Batman Returns where she starts to eat the finch and Penguin shoves an umbrella blade to her cat's throat comes to mind... LOL).<br><br>Tainted... I was under the impression you'd be joining Triangle in the Arkham thread... perhaps waiting somewhere for him with a getaway car after he makes his dramatic exit.

				Well the Hole is so DIRTY and doesn't sound handicap accessible for her power wheelchair (think a top opf the line Jazzy in a nice black color) so I think she needs a home. Someplace where she can hide things she buys and sells, offers a nice front and with a suitable security system.<br><br>

				Hrm, well, I could see Poison Ivy currently operating out of a small, plesant home with her plants.&nbsp; She was cooking up something to make sure Batman woudn't cause her trouble if they ended up in conflict again, but with him suddenly out of the picture she figures it's a good time to test it out on some...&nbsp; Other males.&nbsp; Being a super villian makes getting a date hard these days too...

				I was thinking of a hook I was thinking my character could have gotten a rare artifact called <em>The Pedoian Box</em> supposedly holding seeds from the assumed extinct Cleopatrian Blue Lotus that died out when the palace was ransacked at her fall. I was thinking the box would be a sacred item to the ancient goddess Bast so that could draw out the Catwoman as well.&nbsp; So Poison Ivy and the Catwoman may both want it for different reasons talk about a reason to have the girls go at it.

Those of you who've discussed personal threads to this point can have them still (we have eight players and 6 game threads up so far, and I'll be setting one up for Ruby presently). However, at this point that means that there is only one open spot for a personal thread. First come first serve (to those who don't have one as of yet). Of course, more spots will open up the more players we get.<br><br>If you aren't sure where to start, talk amongst yourselves to get your own subplots started. I'm more than willing to offer suggestions if need be, but of course, that all becomes easier if you know who you will be sharing a subplot with. If you want to get started but don't have a partner in crime as of yet, jump into one of the 6 available generic threads. Those would be the 4 Gotham threads, the Hole, or Arkham. I kinda already limited Lazlo to Arkham to start (let me know if you want me to change that Laz, as I'd made that decision prior to your joining us, and I'd be more than willing to make a change).<br><br>I'm sure I'm missing something here. As we are missing victims at the moment, I will NPC them myself... and someone offered to take up a second character as a victim, as we are lacking in them for the time being. Here's my feelings on that: if you want to be a victim for someone else and already have a character, a second character is A-OK. The more victims the merrier, I always say.<br><br>If I'm missing anything, let me know. I'm a little scatterbrained right now. :)

				A couple of things, the first being I'd be interested in playing eventually, and helping out in the short run. I can make a victim or two, of either gender, if people will let me know what's needed (I'd like to keep it to just a couple, so I don't get stretched too thin).<br><br>A bit later, depending on how other things go, I'd like to run a villain as well. But a few questions, just so I know what's going on:<br>1) Is Catwoman a full-on villain, or is she the current, semi-hero Catwoman (mainly a thief and less a murderer)? 'Cause if it's the later, I wouldn't mind bringing Catman back to town to propose an alliance.<br>2) Is Riddler going to be around as he is currently, a private eye rather than an enemy?<br><br>Just trying to consider options. I like Catman since he was revamped in Secret Six so he's someone I'd consider. Or Deadshot, who's always looking to make a buck. Oh, and any thought to creating a thread for Penguin's Iceberg Lounge? The Hole sounds like such a...crude place to negotiate. The Iceberg has so much more class. And seals.&nbsp; :P
