Jelly's Superhero Roleplay
So. Seeing as this site is being revived, and I have nothing better to do, I am considering running a roleplay in the setting of Worm.
How this will work
This is take form as a number of smaller "Events" that will be created by either me or anyone that signs up. All the events happen in the same universe and effect things. If you failed to stop/you started a series of mass bombings then most of the city would be dead.
Setting
Universe setting is taken from a book called Worm. If you have not read it don't worry. There won't be any spoilers, and it's fairly easy to understand. The city is called Brockton Bay and is split into two main parts. Downtown and Uptown.
Downtown is a seedy dark area. Lots of abandoned warehouses, dark alleys and a large boat graveyard offshore.
Uptown is a standard city, shops, skyscrapers.
On a more worldwide view, the world is slowly collapsing. There are three monsters, Endbringers, called Leviathan, Behemoth and The Simurgh(or Ziz). One of these creatures will attack a city/population hotspot every few months and intend to destroy it beyond salvation. Most of the time they succeed. The other major threat you should know about is The Slaughterhouse Nine(or s9). They are a group of insanely powerful villains that kill things/people, or worse. They are some of the scariest things you will ever encounter and it is better to die than get in their clutches.
If I get enough people I will expand on the setting.
Signing up
If you want to sign up then just comment below. You can sign up at any time you wish on this thread, but I won't run this unless there are at least 3 people interested. Once I get those three members I will make a new thread with details on making a power.
Misc Info
Due to the way it works I will also have a character. Also, you can have up to 5 characters in total. The powers will be widely up to you, just obviously don't go over the top.
Worm is a dark brutal place.
Welcome.
