PRE-APPLICATION DISCUSSION POST!

[capitalm]

Hey guys! I had some requests for a discussion post where people can shoot the shit about potential backstory and power ideas, so here it is!

For best results, make sure to check out the FAQ and other setting information for inspiration, such as superhero registration and power levels, as well as taking at peek at the game wiki to see what's already been started!

POST RULES:

Feel free to discuss any facet of the setting you like, and how they relate to your character ideas!

Please keep in mind though, that nothing can be set in stone until the related apps are accepted. Try to not rely completely on everything on this board being apped successfully.

If you would like to know whether something sounds good to the mods, just flag us down by giving a shout in the subject line or by pinging us on plurk! We'll hit you up as soon as we can.

Have fun!

HEY FRIEND! I'm obviously not a mod so I'm not at all an authority on whether it works or doesn't, but I do have a question that hopefully will help out with the concern of flimsiness (if thats ok)!

Have you figured out why he took the belt in the first place? Because I think having a solid reason (whether it's "he had to stop a bad thing" or "he wanted to play with it and got into a situation where he had to be a hero using the belt" or anything that would explain why he took it and maybe also why he didnt give it back) would strengthen the backstory a lot. If that reason ties in with how he decided to become a superhero, I think it's even better.

also the initial reason I wanted to comment is to say oh my god tHE GRAPE FALLING OUT OF THE SKY.........(i haven't kept up with gaim but it looks like i need to start)

I think the main reason he took the belt was just to mess with it. The reason he didn't give it BACK is kind of... the belt locks onto the first person who uses it, and once someone uses it it goes from blank black to have a little decal on it, which would give him away. But the main reason he didn't is, he feels trapped by the expectations placed on him by his family, and he feels really helpless. He sees the belt and the powers that come with it as a way to (literally) fight for himself, on his own terms? It's something that hasn't been planned out for him, so it's HIS and that's really important to him.

GOD YEAH... grape... we're expected to take this all very seriously but it's a show about fruit warriors. it's so good though!! it's not too far in yet so it'd be easy to catch up.
